Chapter 197: Hopeless
After being frightened by the giant eel, Xi Yan rested in the Netherworld Prison for a day. She didn't care if the giant eel left, this time she was too frightened to see the giant eel.
For the first time, there was a huge shock in his heart, and death was in front of him, and that sense of powerlessness made Xi Yan unable to forget it for a long time.
The body is immobile, completely imprisoned, and watching death come. She never wanted to experience that again. At that moment, she clearly felt that she was too weak. In the face of giant eels, I don't even know how to fall into such a realm. I thought more than once that if I was strong enough, how could I be powerless.
Although the pursuit of strength has always been in my heart, it has never been as strong as it is now. With contrast, you can deeply feel your own weakness.
Physically and mentally exhausted, but unable to sleep. The qiē that had just happened kept flashing in my mind, and I couldn't erase it. I really just came close to leaving this world. I didn't think about anything in my head at the time, but when I think about it now, I still feel nostalgic.
In this world, there are people she knows, people she cares about, and even more people she can't let go. In any case, a qiē is nostalgic. When I faced death, I realized that there were so many things that I remembered.
Xi Yan thought of Qi Chen, Yanfei, Huzi, and many people in the wasteland. The faces of those people appeared in front of her one by one. I thought that she was unconcerned and alone, but when she looked back, there were so many people, who were so familiar, and they left a strong color in her life.
With a lot of emotion in her heart, Xi Yan quickly adjusted her mentality. The current environment does not allow her to indulge in the past, and the giant eels that are eyeing her outside don't know what is going on.
The night passed, and Xi Hui was as good as ever. I first looked at Xi Yu, but it was still like that, his eyes were dull and sluggish. Didn't even pay attention to her strength.
Seeing Xi Yu like this, Xi Yan blamed herself in her heart, but she couldn't open her mouth to say anything. That's it. Any words are pale. He took a deep look at Xi Yu and came to Mo Yu again.
The soul of the Ink Shadow Child transformed into a black mist, enveloping the leg. Xi Yan knew that he was absorbing the power in it. When I first got that heart. That's it.
I secretly said in my heart, I didn't expect that Mo You's luck was so good that he could find what he wanted so quickly. I thought it was fate that I wanted to meet, but I don't know when I can meet again. But without warning. I have to say that some things are really destined. When Mo You was refining his body at that time, did he already think that there would be today. The cycle of cause and effect is true.
Seeing that the wind and waves were calm outside, and the giant eel had long since disappeared, Xi Yan was not happy. How could such a powerful being be so visibly exposed. Being put on the spot, the giant eel shouldn't give up so easily.
I think at the beginning, it was just a mirage, and it could wait outside for many days. The patience of the giant eel is no worse than that of a mirage. Xi Yan firmly believes. The more powerful the creatures, the more arrogant they are, and the more they can't tolerate being bullied.
The food of the giant eel to its mouth inexplicably disappears, which is a provocation to it. The arrogant sea beast will never be indifferent in the face of provocation. You will only accept the challenge head-on. Its pride does not allow for retreat and forbearance.
Xi Yan knew that it looked calm outside, but as long as she appeared, she would immediately suffer the tragic killing of the giant eel. At the beginning, when escaping the siege of the mirage, it paid a terrible price. This time. There is no one to help anymore.
In the face of such a powerful enemy, Xi Yan was overshadowed. If you go out, you will only be sent to death, and you will finally escape from death. It would be silly to take the initiative to send it to the door.
However, staying in the Netherworld Demon Prison like this is not comfortable. After thinking about it for a long time, Xi Yan did not impulsively go out directly to die, but stayed silently. Even if you are aggrieved, it is better than dying.
Xi Yan began to cultivate hard. Day and night. The only good thing about the Netherworld is that it can withstand the wind and rain of the outside world, and it is absolutely quiet, so you don't have to worry about being disturbed at all.
In cultivation, time flies. Xi Yan was completely immersed in it and was not disturbed in any way.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed. Xi Yan's cultivation grew rapidly, and the previous adventures precipitated in her body, and after more than half a year of retreat and cultivation, she finally broke through in one fell swoop and successfully promoted to the fourth-level great warrior. This progress has been rapid.
After checking her body, Xi Yan was very satisfied. Such a speed was unimaginable before, but now it has become a reality. Pursing the corners of her mouth, Xi Yan looked at Mo You.
The black fog faded, and the appearance of a child gradually appeared. It seems that Mo Yu is about to get out of the customs. Looking at Xi Yu again, I can't see her eyes clearly, but the person in the painting is still like a fairy, and I can't resist its charm.
Cultivation is a great advance, but there are strong enemies watching outside, and Xi Yan is not in the mood for a few days, and she becomes discouraged again. Even though her cultivation increased rapidly, she knew that she still had no power to fight back in front of the giant eel.
However, to Xi's surprise, Xi Yu recovered.
One day, when she glanced at the painting again, she found that Xi Yu's eyes were bright, and they were no longer lifeless.
Xi Yan immediately shouted, "Xi Yu, you finally woke up." "You know, these days, it's really suffocating her, no one to talk to, strong enemies outside watching, every thing makes people unable to breathe.
Xi Yu glanced at Xi Yan lightly, and said lukewarmly: "I've been awake all the time." ”
"Well, I mean, you're healed." Xi Yan said embarrassedly. Although he knew what happened last time, Xi Yu must have a grudge in his heart, but after so long, he should be somewhat relieved. However, as soon as Shioba spoke, she knew that it had not passed.
Of course, Xi Yu has a grudge in his heart, and it is quite deep. When someone is used as a shield, without greeting at all, and unprepared, how can the person concerned be willing. Besides, she is not familiar with Xi Yan, and she has not yet reached a relationship where she can sacrifice herself for the other party.
The former demon princess was arrogant, and it was a great shame to be imprisoned in the painting, and it was the same to be pushed out as a shield. At that time, I was so badly injured that it was too late to liquidate, and now the time is just right.
The red light in his eyes was sheng, and he was about to reach Xi Yan. But Xi Yan didn't seem to notice it, and didn't dodge it at all.
The reason why Xi Yan didn't move was because she felt ashamed in her heart, and it would be good to wait for Xi Yu to vent.
However, the red light was blocked when she was close to Xi. It seems that there is an invisible protective layer around Xi Yan, no matter how fierce the red light is, it still can't shake it in the slightest.
Xi Yu snorted coldly: "Since there is such a powerful protective cover, why didn't you use it in the first place." Now it's being used against me, do you think it's good? ”
Suddenly, Xi Yan remembered where they were. "You forgot, this is the Nether Hell. You can't hurt me anyway. It's not my intention. ”
Xi Yu's eyes flashed, he was so anxious just now that he forgot that Xi Yan was the master of the Netherworld Demon Prison. It would be in vain to attempt to attack its master here.
With a cold snort, Xi Yu no longer paid attention to Xi Yan. I can't vent my resentment. How could she give Xi Yan a good face.
Xi Yan understood Xi Yu's mentality and no longer bothered her.
Although she felt guilty, Xi Yu knew that as long as Xi Yu was in the Netherworld Demon Prison for one day, she would not be able to change her identity in prison. She, the master, occupies an advantageous side, how could she be stupid enough to take the initiative to bow her head. Besides, there is already a fierce struggle between cultivators, and it is inevitable that in a critical moment, when making sacrifices. Then. She didn't have any defense in her hand, the only thing she could use was this painting, and of course she had to take it out.
Different positions naturally lead to different ideas. Xi Yan has no doubt that if she and Xi Yu's identities are reversed, Xi Yu will do the same, and she has no guilt.
Thinking about this, the little guilt in Xi Yan's heart completely disappeared. If Shioba was still like this, she didn't want to change anything. Originally, I had absolute rights here. Why bother looking at people's faces.
With confidence, the momentum around Xi Yan immediately changed.
Although Xi Yu ignored Xi Yan, he was secretly watching her every move. Watching the momentum of Xi Yan's body change, his heart quickly became clear.
However. Even in the past tens of thousands of years, Shioyu's pride is still there, and it has never passed with the years. Her pride does not allow it, and this matter is destined to become a dead knot in her heart. She is not like Mo You, even if she was once brilliant, she can put down her body. Cooperate with Xi to achieve your own goals.
Shioyu's arrogance is in his bones, innate, and he can't throw it away even if he is in a desperate situation. It is precisely because of this radical difference that the two people in the same Netherworld Demon Prison have completely different mentalities.
Therefore, even if he knew in his heart that such arrogance would be very detrimental to himself, Xi Yu still couldn't change it. When facing Xi Yan, she has always been on top.
Ignoring Xi Yu no more, Xi Yan studied the ancient books while waiting for Mo You's sobriety.
Sometimes, Xi Yan also wonders if she is too dependent on Mo You. The answer is yes.
The existence of Moyu is very related to itself. At the same time, he is a senior, who is almost omnipotent in the eyes of Xi Yan. If there is such a person, how can you not want to rely on it. Besides, she also helped him a lot and promised to help him come back to life. As long as she thought of this, Xi Yan's heart was instantly balanced. They just need each other.
When Mo Youyou woke up, he met Xi Yan's eyes full of excitement. After identifying the incident, he was puzzled. What the hell happened, why did Xi Yan look at him like this.
Turning his head uncomfortably, Mo You realized that this was the Netherworld Prison, and Xi Yan was waiting for him on a special trip. I just wanted to ask, but I was interrupted by Xi Yan.
"Moyou, you've finally woken up, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Hearing this, Mo You was even more sure that something must have happened, otherwise Xi Yan would never be so enthusiastic.
"Wait, why are you here?" Mo You hurriedly asked before Xi Yan opened her mouth, she was afraid that it would be too late, and she didn't know what Xi Yan would say.
Xi Yan said: "Let's take a look at your situation first, I must have improved a lot of strength this time." ”
"yes, you'd better tell me what's going on." Mo Yu didn't answer the rhetorical question. After absorbing that right leg, his strength increased greatly, but Xi Yan's appearance made him even more worried.
After hesitating for a moment, Xi Yan said, "I've been here for almost a year. ”
"What, it's been so long, what are you doing here, aren't you in a hurry to find Qi Chen?" As soon as the words came out, Mo You regretted it. If this happens, you still need to ask the reason, what happened before is still vivid, and history must be repeating itself again. He didn't understand, how could he come back after only a few days.
Xi Yan said innocently: "I really didn't take the initiative to provoke this time. I walked cautiously, but I still crashed, and I was cornered, so I had to hide here. ”
"You're just waiting for me to wake up and help you solve the crisis in front of you?" Mo Yu asked.
"Of course, you are so powerful, you can only rely on you."
"Can you tell us what happened?" Mo Yu asked. After talking for so long, there is still no mention of what happened. However, if Xi Yan can wait here for a year, she must be in big trouble.
Xi Yan briefly recounted the experience, and finally said: "We almost died in Huangquan, thanks to my urgency, I remembered that painting, otherwise I would not have been in this world for a long time." ”
Mo You looked at her silently. Although the two of them are dependent on each other, it is also whether her life is good or not, as if he was completely saved by her.
After a while, Mo You asked, "What's the situation out there now?" ”
Xi Yan said: "It looks calm, I don't know if the giant eel is still there." However, judging from the experience of the last mirage, it must be lurking nearby, and we should not take it lightly. ”
Mo Yu was silent for a long time.
Xi Yan was anxious and worried: "Why don't you speak?" "In the past, when he encountered such a thing, he paid a lot of attention, but this time it was too abnormal.
"The giant eel you encountered, capable of spewing venom, with incredible speed, and its strength is equivalent to that of a seventh-level samurai, which is only a conservative estimate. With your current cultivation, you will be completely killed in seconds. Even with me, it's not necessarily possible to overcome. Mo Yu said in a deep voice.
"You can't do it either?" Xi Yan was surprised, "No, you were already very powerful before, and if you absorb the power of that leg again, can't you?" ”
Mo You shook his head and said, "Last time I helped you escape from the mirage group, it cost too much, and you haven't recovered yet." Absorbing the power in the 'legs', it is very certain that the cultivation will be improved, but the ascension process is not large. If you want to deal with giant eels, there are still some gaps. The most important thing is that even if I have the strength to deal with the giant eel, I still have to rely on your body, and you can't withstand such a huge force at all, and you may explode and die. Do you remember the last time your body was hit hard, I was already in control at that time, but the result was still a heavy blow to your body, and you cultivated for a long time. If you have to use this method, the consequences will only be stricter than last time, and there is no guarantee of success. ”
After listening to Mo You's words, Xi Yan only felt that the sky had fallen. Even Mo You couldn't do anything, and her last glimmer of hope was gone. (To be continued.) )
