Chapter 116: Yin Spirit
But it was this fixed thinking that made the divine consciousness she could send out already trapped in the stone path they were walking, and she still didn't know it.
Slowing down their swimming speed again, the three of them took their magic weapons in their hands and nervously swept the passage ahead as much as they could with their divine senses.
At their feet, scattered purple flowers have emerged one after another. The further you go, the more flowers you can see, until almost the entire circular stone passage is covered with these strange purple flowers.
These flowers all produce a large black stamen in layers of purple leaves. It looks very weird.
I don't know where this flower came from, so the three of them chose to move forward more cautiously. Because the width of the stone path was narrowing, they had to try to avoid getting close to the purple flowers.
The further you go in, the purple flowers grow larger, and the stamens are exaggerated to be twice as large as the petals.
In the large sea of purple flowers, a plain white flower bone attracted Mu Xici's attention. This budding little white flower is not very conspicuous in the huge purple flowers, but the divine sense has sensitively captured this anomaly.
In the jade slip that He Juan gave to her that recorded strange flowers and plants, she seemed to have seen a similar pattern like this. To pick it or not to pick it.
Mu Xici's hesitation was seen by the painting Yi in the rear, he swam to the white flower bones and drew a circle with aura in the water, before carefully picking it off and handing it to the other party.
It is estimated that Hua Yi knew the purpose of this flower, and after putting the little white flower into the Qiankun bag, she nodded to the other party in thanks.
Unexpectedly, he made an accelerated movement compared to the two in front of him. Yin Ya was the first to react, pulling Mu Xici and rushing forward like an arrow off the string.
Mu Xici was dragged by Yin Ya and stumbled forward in the narrow stone road. I don't know if there is a problem with those flowers, and every time she bumps into those purple flowers, there is always a strange feeling.
A huge wave of water suddenly threw everyone onto the stone wall on the right. Mu Xici used the fishtail to prop up the stone wall and barely stood up. Luckily, there are these flowers to help get in the way. Otherwise, I'm afraid it won't be light at once.
Suddenly feeling a wave of dizziness in her mind, she barely managed to stabilize her consciousness and look at it, and the pool in front of her was rippling with fine ripples one after another, and the amplitude was still increasing.
These ripples even caused an echo of the air in Mu Xici's sea of knowledge. It was like a whistle that could only be heard when she was close to a giant ship, which shook her heart.
This time, Hua Yi did not hesitate, and quickly made a few gestures to the two. Then he raised his hand and used the aura to draw several circles behind him to form a blue aura layer.
The three of them braved the waves of the pool and once again accelerated their speed. Because the meaning of that gesture is that the demon beast is coming!
The stone path shook more and more frequently. From time to time, purple flowers on the stone wall were shaken off by violent impacts.
During the rapid swimming, Mu Xici's divine sense caught something, and he faintly felt that something was approaching quickly. And there are not a few of them.
As she accelerated, she suddenly noticed that the painting behind her was thrown to her right back. When I looked back, I saw a monster beast that I had never seen before.
Luckily, they were passing through a bend that narrowed as they turned. So the monster only passed through a huge head, and its body was stuck behind.
Now she finally believes that ugly demons do a lot of weird things.
This monster beast was definitely the ugliest monster she had ever seen, and even the stone statues seen in the ruins before were less than one-ten-thousandth of it.
Some resemble the heads of sharks. But he has a pair of eye sockets that occupy two-thirds of the entire skull. I say this because there is nothing in the black hole in that eye socket. Compared to the milky white body, it looks extremely terrifying.
The monster slammed left and right at the bend, trying to swim in front of the three of them. The surrounding stone walls trembled.
Hua Yi quickly swam to the monster's side, and slashed out blue light from his palm towards the stone wall next to the monster. The purple flowers on the stone wall could not withstand the attack, and they were shattered and scattered in the pool.
Mu Xi didn't know what he meant, but he also took out the Nine Heavenly Pestle and greeted him as well. Between the blue and white beams, the surrounding pool water was gradually dyed purple and spread outward.
The stone path shook again. The stone wall around the inside of the bend has cracks. From the gap next to the head of the demon beast, you can vaguely see several more of the same kind coming from behind, and from time to time they are restless and use their strength to hit the previous demon beast with their heads.
Seeing that the purple waters in front of them were constantly expanding, the three of them didn't care about the demon beast behind them and fled to the depths of the cave.
Through a strange stack of stone walls, several people walked along the stone path, only to find that the depth of the pool seemed to be getting shallower.
After his head could poke out of the water, Mu Xici spit out the crowtail grass in his mouth and put it away, and instead landed on the ground with his somewhat soft feet.
I don't know if the demon beast behind has caught up, she is already a little out of strength. I have to say that after swimming in the water for a long time, she felt that her legs were a little sore. It seems that fish are not so easy to be when they are not so good.
"You're all right. Hua Yi was the last to crawl out of the shallow shore and look at the two meditating in front of him.
"Fortunately, I just felt some numbness in my legs, and I probably didn't get used to it. Is that demon beast still behind?" Mu Xici said as he pulled out the dragon beard candy that Yin Ya had given her before from the Qiankun bag.
Hua Yi applied a small dust cleansing technique to himself and released Ao Xue: "Miss Mu don't worry. Those purple flowers are called purple hair, and if they are crushed in large quantities and placed in water, they will have an anesthetic effect. ”
"There seems to be something strange about this stone path. Although it seems to be moving forward, it is a guide to constantly swim upwards. And we've been in it for three days now. ”
As soon as Yin Ya's words came out, the two who were still planning to chat were stunned.
"I thought we had only swam for a few hours. It seems that this stone path will not only block the divine sense, but also delay the perception of the person. Mu Xici frowned, and quickly spread out his divine sense.
No, as before, you can only perceive things in this cave. Beyond that, nothing can be perceived.
Looking at the flames in front of him that had extinguishing momentum, Mu Xici threw another fire talisman. "Young Master Yin, I don't know if the path we are taking is correct, is the longevity grass in this direction. ”
Yin Ya's pupils reflected the flames of dancing joy, and after a while, he said: "That's right, it's in this direction, we are getting closer and closer to the longevity grass." ”
"Alright, let's hurry up and move on. Looking at Mu Xici's frowning brows, Hua Yi spoke first.
Holding the night pearl in his hand, Mu Xici looked at the two people in front of him who were not tired at all and said softly: "Thank you......"
Ao Xue walked gracefully to Mu Xici's side with her paws and licked her hand.
"I'm fine, Ao Xue. Thank you. ”
In this way, the three men and one beast continued to move forward in the newly appeared stone cave. This stone cave is obviously different from the circular passage that I have walked through before, and the whole stone path is a smooth ink color even when illuminated by the Night Pearl.
For such a long stretch of road, there is not a single grass growing on the walls, and there is not even a trace, but it is a little strange.
What is interesting is that the temperature on the stone wall is cold, but the further you go inside, the more stuffy the air becomes.
Mu Xici walked in the middle with the nine-day pestle, followed by Ao Xue. Because there was Yin Ya in front of her to illuminate the Night Pearl, she returned the Night Pearl to the other party, leaving a free hand.
But as she walked, she smelled a sweet fragrance, but suddenly felt a somewhat cold and piercing hand pull her.
"Painting Daoist, your hand ......" Mu Xici turned around, but found that there was a black thing in the team.
The appearance of a five-year-old child, his whole body is jet black, but his face is similar to that of the previous monster, with only two white holes. It held Mu Xici's hand tightly, and as the other party turned around, it also tilted its head and looked back at her with white eyes.
With a shake of his hand, Mu Xici desperately held back the screams in his heart and kept comforting himself. She has watched a lot of ghost movies in her previous life, and this thing must be some kind of demon beast. At worst, she also has four ghost cultivators, and she was just pulled by one of their kind......
Ao Xue bared her white teeth, her front paws were tightly clasped on the ground, and she roared a few times at the inexplicable extra things. But the black "villain" didn't react, only holding Mu Xici's hand tightly.
"You're okay. Huayi looked at the thing in front of him strangely. He probed with his divine sense, without any aura fluctuations, and there was no demonic energy. It's not like a demon beast, but it shouldn't be a normal spirit beast.
"What's wrong?" Yin Ya turned around, and came to Mu Xici's side in three or two steps, but his tone was a little solemn at first sight: "Yin Spirit." ”
Mu Xici felt that his left hand was about to be frozen and unconscious: "Yin Spirit, is it a spirit animal?"
"Yin Gongzi is sure this is a Yin Spirit? This ...... But it's troublesome. The Yin Spirit is not a spirit animal. Huayi looked at Mu Xici nervously, and stopped talking a little.
It's not a spirit animal, it's something the hell. Mu Xici looked at the white hole in his eyes, and felt that his entire scalp was tingling: "What is it?"
"Yin spirit, in fact, it is more appropriate to call it a yin ghost. It is said that in extremely cold places, there are often souls that have died unjustly and cannot be reincarnated, nor can they turn into ghosts. Over time, thousands of unjust spirits merged into one and turned into dark creatures—Yin Spirits. ”
Thousands of unjust souls, the monster that is now holding her hand? Mu Xici turned her head with difficulty and continued to ask, "Then why is it pulling me?"
"I heard from the master that they would look for people with heavy yin qi to possess them. And then...... Then they will swallow that person and reincarnate as a whole person......"
Hua Yi's explanation made Mu Xici completely goosebumps, and the cold hairs behind him stood up: "Is there any way to solve the Yin Spirit?" (to be continued......)
