Ji Jiuying's pale face had lost all color, and she gradually fell into a coma.
"Mother~" Little Phoenix tried to get closer but was bounced away by an invisible barrier.
"It's no use. Now she can only rely on herself. If she can survive, she will live; if she can't, she will be destroyed." Although the little boy also hoped that she could survive, he was not sure.
······
Gong Mingyue, who was breaking through the boundary to enter the secret realm, sensed something, his face darkened, and he released an even stronger power to break through the boundary, but this triggered the poison in his body.
A faint crimson glint appeared deep within his eyes.
However, at this moment...
The poison surged within its body, and its murderous intent permeated the entire forest.
The Demon Beast Forest was like a staged battle, with countless spiritual cultivators and spirit beasts affected by Gong Mingyue's power. Everywhere in the forest, spirit beasts exploded and died because they could not withstand the pressure!
Bloodshed and cruelty were unfolding.
The outskirts of the Warcraft Forest.
"What happened inside? Such a powerful fluctuation is coming from there?"
"I hope my brother and the others are alright!"
Wen Longxiu looked worriedly towards the depths of the forest.
Ji Jiuying was trapped in an illusion, surrounded by a vast expanse of white.
"Huh? Where am I?"
"Whoosh~" A golden light flashed through the white mist.
"What is that?" Ji Jiuying followed cautiously.
Back and forth, the golden light seemed to be deliberately teasing her. Ji Jiuying ran around until she was exhausted, but she still couldn't see what the golden light was.
On a sudden impulse, the little rascal is trying to trick me, isn't he!
Once I catch you, you're dead.
Ji Jiuying sat on the ground, closing her eyes to rest.
After about half a cup of tea's time, golden light peeked out from the white mist and looked at Ji Jiuying.
Then he quietly approached Ji Jiuying.
A dark shadow darted in, and before the golden light could react, it was caught by Ji Jiuying.
"Haha~ You fell for it, didn't you? Gotcha!"
The golden light twisted and turned, trying to break free, but how could Ji Jiuying let her break free?
Ji Jiuying looked at the thing in her hand. What the hell was this? It was radiating golden light all over its body, and its appearance was neither like an elf nor a snake!
"Let me go!"
A voice like that of a toddler who had just learned to speak came from the air. Ji Jiuying looked at the little guy in her hand in shock; he could actually talk.
"I can let you go, but you have to tell me where this is and how I get out of here?"
"No way! I told Fatty not to!"
Watching it speak, Ji Jiuying thought of Xiao Huang'er again! Xiao Huang'er! She remembered that she was clearly in the contract with the Immortal-Binding Rope, so how did she end up here?
I can't summon Little Phoenix, and the space around me is also blocked!
"Tell me quickly, where is this place? Or I'll kill you!"
The little guy shivered in Ji Jiuying's hand, lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something.
Although Ji Jiuying felt a little sorry for it, it was the only clue she had.
"Ouch~" Ji Jiuying's finger was unexpectedly bitten hard by the little guy, and she couldn't help but throw it aside.
"I was just asking you a question, and you bit me so viciously!"
The little guy sat on the ground with his head down, looking aggrieved, and drew circles with his finger.
Ji Jiuying; ······
I'm the one who's been wronged, okay?
Ji Jiuying wanted to say something more, but Bai Mangmang was gone, and that little guy was gone too.
"Pfft~" Ji Jiuying suddenly opened her eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The little boy was so happy to see this that he hadn't even realized what was happening when, by sheer coincidence, the blood that Ji Jiuying vomited landed right on his face.
"Mother~ Mother is alright~ Waaah! Little Huang'er thought she would never see Mother again." Little Huang'er threw herself into Ji Jiuying's arms.
However, at this moment, contract marks appeared under Ji Jiuying's feet and under the little boy's feet!
An ancient voice rang out.
With my blood, I bind your soul and forge a pact with you.
"Damn it! They forced us to form a contract! Who is so wicked?!" the little boy roared, flames blazing in his eyes.
Ji Jiuying lost too much blood, and the little boy let out another roar before fainting.
"Damn it!" Little Phoenix's eyes blazed with anger as she unleashed her power, spitting a mouthful of Vermilion Bird Divine Fire directly at the little boy.
Unable to resist the suppression of his bloodline, the little boy's dragon soul was directly burned by the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, transforming into a dragon body and struggling fiercely, causing the secret realm to shake.
Ji Jiuying opened her eyes with difficulty, "Little Phoenix, put away the flames, or the secret realm will collapse!"
Upon hearing this, Little Phoenix withdrew her divine fire and warned, "I'll teach you to bully your mother again."
Ji Jiuying took out some spiritual spring water, drank a few cups, and then meditated and cultivated for a while before slowly standing up.
She discovered a golden mark in her sea of consciousness; she had succeeded, and a connection had been established between her and the Immortal-Binding Rope.
"Stop." The Binding Immortal Rope shrank and wrapped around Ji Jiuying's wrist like a bracelet.
The little boy looked at his hands and feet, feeling a mixture of joy and sorrow. Joy because the Immortal-Binding Rope was finally broken. Sorrow because he had inexplicably formed a contract with that human.
"Don't worry, it's an equal contract." After saying that, Ji Jiuying ignored it.
She felt that after forming a contract with the Immortal-Binding Rope, she was starting to lose control of the spiritual energy within her body and was about to break through again.
The little boy just stared at Ji Jiuying. Actually, contracting with her wasn't so bad. Moreover, the fact that she could contract with the divine beast Vermilion Bird showed that she had some extraordinary abilities. More importantly, she actually managed to get the Immortal-Binding Rope to recognize her as its master.
The divine artifact that had imprisoned it for tens of thousands of years was now bound to a mortal through a contract, something it couldn't understand at all.
Half a day later, Ji Jiuying slowly opened her eyes, exhaled, and smiled. Not bad, six-star Great Spirit Master.
The third level of the Divine Control Technique also showed signs of loosening.
"Let's go find them!"
Ji Jiuying said to the little boy.
"Okay, let me sense where they are?"
The little boy closed his eyes for a moment, then said, "They are all trying to enter the secret room now. Should we go directly to them or go to the next level?"
Ji Jiuying is now its contract master, so of course it still needs to ask for her opinion.
What's in the locked room? Is it dangerous?
"It's not dangerous. If you succeed, you'll get a reward; if you fail, you won't. But there's no danger to your life."
Hearing this, Ji Jiuying felt relieved. "What's the next challenge?"
"A sea of fire, with lava flowing beneath it."
Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow, "Perhaps there will be Crimson Crystal Mushrooms."
"Go to the sea of fire."
The little boy looked at Ji Jiuying with some surprise. Hadn't it made itself clear? She would get treasures from the secret realm if she cleared the level! Didn't she like that?
You know, even a single treasure from the secret realm would be fought over by people, yet she wasn't tempted at all?
Compared to those so-called treasures, Ji Jiuying still chose the latter. Besides, no matter how much they were treasured, could they be more precious than the Binding Immortal Rope?
However, it didn't ask any more questions and, together with Ji Jiuying, flashed to the sea of fire.
