Chapter 39: Deepening
Soul devouring hurriedly said: "The young master doesn't know, when the young master was in a coma before, there was a fight in the spiritual realm, and the power was earth-shattering, I waited in front of it, like a dust ant, a little bit of impact, that is, the gods were destroyed, with such a strong person, I persuaded the young master to dispel the idea of going." β
Lin Yuan asked in surprise: "The people who fight, but the two seniors I have seen before?"
Soul devouring said: "It should be them, they can fight like that with the two of them, I don't know how strong they are, with these people, I'm afraid this spiritual realm is no longer something we can touch, so it's better to leave quickly." β
Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "I won't leave like this, no matter what, I have to see those two seniors again and ask clearly." β
After that, the Dao Seeking Sword was already unsheathed and floated at Lin Yuan's feet, and the Spirit Devourer wanted to persuade again, but he threw it into the Qiankun bag with the token.
Looking at the direction of the spiritual realm, in the past eighteen years, Lin Yuan's heart, which had always longed to know his life experience, had become extremely strong when he met those two predecessors, even if there was a sea of swords and fires in front of him, as long as there was still hope in his heart, he would not hesitate.
The Dao Seeking Sword carried him into the air, turning into a meteor in the deep night sky, and soon after, he came to the mountain of the spiritual realm again.
It's just that compared to before, the mountains that should have existed in front of him are gone, as if they have been razed, and the surrounding area is full of rocks, full of messes, where is there still the previous appearance, looking at the scene in front of him, Lin Yuan couldn't help but gasp, he didn't want the earth-shattering fight that the devouring spirit said was so unimaginable.
Afraid that something would happen to the two seniors, Lin Yuan hurriedly looked around, and when he saw that there was no two of them, he was nervous, so he was slightly relieved.
Not far away, because the mountains have been leveled, a pool of water in the middle of the pool, but also exposed under the night sky, with the faint moonlight, slightly glowing water, the aura in the pool is still surging, extremely thick, but the giant python that inhabits nearby, but is nowhere to be found.
Lin Yuan came to the edge of the pool, felt the majestic aura in the water, suddenly had a bold guess in his heart, stared at the water, and threw down a big stone casually, the water fell into the pool, and the dull deep sound suddenly made him smile, and said to himself: "This water is really not shallow, this aura is overflowing from it, and there should be no hole under the water." β
After that, he plunged headlong into the water, those two seniors came to the spiritual realm, it must be because of the so-called heavenly soul mound in the domain, as long as they find the source of this spiritual energy, it should not be difficult to find them.
As soon as he entered the water, a stream of aura instantly penetrated into Lin Yuan's limbs, and suddenly made his eyes clear, he could actually see the surrounding situation in this dark and dull underwater, only to see that the place he was in was a rugged passage, wide and narrow enough to accommodate three people to pass, there was no end in sight, I don't know how long it would be, and although Lin Yuan was familiar with water since he was a child, he couldn't stay in the water for a long time, the time of half a pillar of incense was the limit, if he didn't surface at that time, he would probably only suffocate in the water.
Lin Yuan did not hesitate, gritted his teeth, and continued to dive down the waterway, swimming for about a mile or two, the surrounding dissolution channel gradually widened, and the originally lightless water gradually revealed a faint light, he was overjoyed, and immediately accelerated to swim, and finally broke through the water.
"Whirring ......"
A slightly rapid wheezing sound echoed in all directions, Lin Yuan looked around, and saw that what was in front of him was a stalactite cave, and at the entrance of the cave, two huge flames floated in the air, illuminating the entire cave, as if it would never be extinguished.
Compared to the cave in front of him, as soon as Lin Yuan came ashore, leaning on the edge of the cave, the figure of a half-man and a half-snake attracted his attention, which immediately made him vigilant, and he slowly walked forward with the sword of seeking the Dao, until he walked in, and by the light of the fire, he saw that this half-human and half-snake thing was actually a bewitching and beautiful woman.
The other party obviously noticed that someone was coming, and when he looked up, after seeing Qing Linyuan's appearance, his eyes became cold, and a thick killing intent instantly poured out, as if he wanted to freeze the surrounding air.
"It's you......!"
The snake girl roared at Lin Yuan, said, raised her hand angrily, and was about to move, but her body was stunned, and then she moaned in pain, and collapsed to the ground, unable to move, obviously seriously injured.
Lin Yuan frowned, stopped and asked, "Do you recognize me?"
The snake girl hated: "My son died at your hands, how can I not know!"
The more the snake girl spoke, the angrier she became, and her weak body didn't seem to allow her to be so loud, so that she couldn't help coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood.
Lin Yuan, on the other hand, was stunned, looking uncertain, until he saw the two giant snake eggs beside the snake girl, who had not been noticed because of the dim light, and then he suddenly woke up.
"It turned out to be you!" Lin Yuan pointed to the snake girl in front of him, his eyes widened, he couldn't believe that the snake girl in front of him was actually the giant python that chased and beat him in the cave before, and he had accidentally broken one of her three snake eggs in the hole, no wonder this snake girl had such hatred when she saw her.
After thinking about it, he immediately explained: "It was my fault who broke your egg before, but you also saw that the egg, it was already stinky and necrotic, no different from a stillbirth, and it couldn't hatch at all. β
The snake girl said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, my child is just a little sick, Lord Nightmare promised, as long as I take care of it here for three thousand years, he will heal my son, and now that the period is about to expire, you will kill him, if it were not for those two strong men, I would have killed you to vent my anger and avenge my son, how can I allow you to live until now." β
Lin Yuan frowned, there may be many ways to bring the dead back to life in this world, which can give birth to people and live people, flesh and bones, but the life in the snake egg has been necrotic before it has been condensed, obviously not in this case, let alone talk about treatment, the "Nightmare Adult" in the mouth of the snake girl is just an excuse to let her guard here.
In the face of a mother's three-thousand-year-old obsession, Lin Yuan did not choose to say it, these have nothing to do with him, the only thing he cares about is the whereabouts of the two seniors, but he has some feelings in his heart. In the end, he approached the snake girl and reached out, seeing this, the snake girl suddenly panicked, and was about to struggle, but heard Lin Yuan shout in an irreproperable tone: "Don't move, I'll heal you." β
The snake girl seemed to suspect that she had misheard, and was stunned for a moment, until Lin Yuan's hand touched her, and a trace of spiritual power immediately submerged into her body, constantly dredged the various veins in her body that were blocked by serious injuries.
After a few breaths, the snake girl's pain seemed to be relieved a lot, her weak face suddenly refreshed, she looked at Lin Yuan with shame, and said angrily: "Stop, I don't need your pity, stop for me......"
Lin Yuan ignored it, and still sent spiritual power to treat her, but the more he went on, the more frightened Lin Yuan became, only that this snake girl's internal organs were broken, and her heart was also seriously damaged, and she was able to live until now, all with one breath, and I don't know what supported her.
"Who did you do with this injury, so ruthlessly!" Lin Yuan couldn't help but ask.
The snake girl paused, her expression gloomy, but finally she spoke, "It's Lord Nightmare." β
"Nightmare, who is that?" Lin Yuan asked.
The snake girl said: " Nightmare Lord is the guardian of this place, three thousand years ago, because of my son's disease, I looked around for treatment, met him, he told me, as long as I am here for him to guard for three thousand years, when the expiration date, he will come out to heal my son, unfortunately, these days for some reason, there are always people one after another to explore this place, you human cunning, lure me out, one after another sneak into here, Nightmare Lord in a fit of anger and wounded me, as a severe punishment, but my injury is small, poor my son finally survived these three thousand years, but because of my position, offended Nightmare Lord I am afraid that there will be no more survivalγ β
Speaking of this, she gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "Don't think that if you heal me, I will be grateful to Dade for letting you go, and when I recover, I will definitely kill you." β
"Whatever you want. Lin Yuan looked indifferent, and after speaking, he continued: "In exchange, just tell me the whereabouts of those two seniors." β
"Hmph!" the snake girl snorted coldly, "What if I don't say it?"
Lin Yuan threatened expressionlessly: "If that's the case, I will also drop your remaining two children, looking at your appearance, I can't stop me." As he spoke, he shamelessly pointed to the only two snake eggs left next to the snake girl.
"...... you" The snake girl was angry for a while, and after glaring at Lin Yuan angrily for a while, she spoke: "Those two people did come here, it seems that they are looking for something, fighting with Lord Nightmare several times, I don't know if they live or die." As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Yuan with a complicated expression, and said, "If I were you, I would just turn back, and don't go any further." β
Lin Yuan frowned and asked, "Why?"
The snake girl said: "There is a nightmare lord here to guard, as far as I know, this nightmare lord is not a living being, the body is a dream, formless and unreal, don't say that it is those two strong people, even if it is a profound cultivation, it is difficult to help him, like you cultivate, go in, once you fall into the dream, I am afraid that it will also become the nightmare lord's dream food, forever fall into it, before luring me out of the human monk who sneaked in, I am afraid that this is the case." β
Hearing this, Lin Yuan's face sank slightly, and after thinking about it, he stood up and thanked the snake girl: "Thank you girl." β
The snake girl snorted: "I say this, but I don't want you to die in it, your life is mine, one day, I will kill you with my own hands." After speaking, she glanced at Lin Yuan, paused, and asked a little anxiously, "Do you still want to go inside?"
Lin Yuan nodded, how to grow without experiencing a crisis of life and death, since he is here, if he hears about the crisis in front of him, he will retreat, his Dao heart does not allow it, not to mention the nightmare encountered by the two predecessors, invisible and unreal, this kind of enemy is the most tricky, although his cultivation is low, but the method he has practiced, the "Heavenly Fire Holy Scroll", is the most restrained such an ethereal thing, maybe he can help something.
Thinking of this, he was no longer embarrassed, and after leaving a few bottles of warm elixir, he turned around and walked towards the room, the snake girl looked at him, and suddenly reminded: "In this cave, in addition to the nightmare adult, there are countless small dreams derived from its dream real body, if you are trapped in it, remember to keep your consciousness awake, once you fall asleep, there is no possibility of waking up." β
"Thank you!"
Lin Yuan nodded, thanked again, and then slowly sank into the cave.
