Li Changyuan tried to get up and leave, but his body weighed like tens of thousands of pounds.

The injury almost paralyzed Li Changyuan.

It's so hard to even stand up.

As far as the eye could see, the ground in the forest was rustling with rotten leaves and the sound of white bones blowing, the breeze was blowing, blowing an inch, with a foul smell even worse than Li Changyuan.

So poisonous.

Speaking of the environment here, it is really not something that a cultivator like Li Changyuan can come in, no wonder those monks are silent outside.

It is estimated that few of the monks who came here made it out alive.

Those white bones half-buried in the black rotting soil, where did the nutrients go?

All underground?

All of them have become nutrients in the ground? Is there anything else underground......

No, now is not the time to think about that. ’

Trying to get out of the illusion before, Li Changyuan operated the Cloud Transformation Technique in his divine sense. At this moment, he was out of the illusion, even if he suffered heavy internal injuries because of the absorption of the Cloud Transformation Technique, but at least he still woke up from the illusion.

It's a good thing.

'Rosa, is there any way to get out of here?' ’

Rosa was silent, but did not respond.

So, even Rosa doesn't know?

Call......

Li Changyuan took a deep breath slowly and carefully, and immediately began to cover his mouth and nose.

It's a foul smell, and you can't stay in such a toxic environment for long. ’

Fortunately, Li Changyuan woke up in time, if he spent another period of time in the illusion, a day? Or two days? I am afraid that before I wake up, my body will be corroded by the rich miasma in this forest because of the slow simmering of warm water, and all my internal organs will rot, and the minced flesh will festered to become a dry bone.

Death in silence.

'There's a way. ’

Rosa spoke suddenly.

Li Changyuan asked in the sea of knowledge:

'Tell me, what's the solution?' ’

I found the body, and then, ate it. ’

'Huh? ’

No......

Li Changyuan corrected:

In this situation, shouldn't you think about how to get out of here, how to get out of here? ’

Rosa responded:

If you can't get out, look at your current condition, can you still stand up? ’

'Hmm......'

Yes, there is no way to do it, and breaking into here alone is the worst possible outcome.

It's like sinking deep in a swamp, drowning, it's only a matter of time.

The miasma has deprived his body of a lot of energy, and he doesn't know how much time has passed in reality, and now he can't even move his limbs freely, but even the rest of his perception is fading.

'Rosa, how long has it been since I entered this forest?' ’

Rosa responded:

'Half an hour. ’

And that's not long.

Li Changyuan's mental torture may have passed for many days and nights in the illusion realm, and he thought that he would never be able to get out.

Now, listen to Rosa's thoughts before you make up your mind.

'What do you mean by eating it?' ’

Rosa quickly explained:

'There is a corpse of a demon beast buried in this underground, that demon beast was very strong in life, and the body after death can still be driven by the remaining obsession of the remnant soul, it is estimated that before those Terran monks had time to deal with it, the demon beast took its own corpse into the ground, relying on years of absorbing the vitality of other living beings, and cultivating another branch of demon beasts: corpse demon. ’

'Ghouls? ’

"Well, yes, it is difficult for a corpse demon to become a climate, and ordinary demons can't cultivate into a corpse demon at all, the corpse demon is actually an immortal white bone, and the demon beast becoming a corpse demon is actually a helpless move, and there are also some conditions, the minimum conditions for becoming a corpse demon, and it is at least a fairy realm during his lifetime." ’

'Mortal ......'

Rosa added:

It's equivalent to the realm of the master and the eldest grandson. ’

Li Changyuan's heart was slightly shocked.

Eh, no, there's a fairy beast buried in the ground, and you told me to eat it?

Who's going to eat whom?

'Time is running out, Li Changyuan, you are ready, use your spiritual power and soul power to bind you into the illusion world, and lead the remnant soul of that demon beast to appear in the illusion. As soon as the time comes, you will eat it with your own hands. ’

Li Changyuan still didn't understand.

"Poof! cough, cough, cough, cough cough ......"

Unconsciously, he vomited another mouthful of blood, and his body became more and more uncomfortable.

It's really tormenting.

'Oh no, you brought ...... out and didn't discuss with me how that guy wanted me to eat it. ’

Rosa had begun to attach to Li Changyuan's soul and consciousness, and finally added simply:

'With all the methods you can think of, it's not really a remnant soul, it's just a form of existence in the form of a creation of heaven and earth, to put it more transparently, that kind of thing is more like aura, like the one you just inhaled with the Cloud Transformation Technique. ’

Yes?

Li Changyuan was shocked, just now ......

Didn't I inhale the miasma just now, hey, hey, hey, if I inhale the miasma again with Huayun Jue, I'll die, wow.

The internal organs in my body will rot directly because of the miasma.

'Ready, sink into the illusion. ’

'Hmm......'

Rosa didn't wait for Li Changyuan to ask too many questions, and directly pulled Li Changyuan's divine sense and escaped together.

Li Changyuan's eyes opened and woke up again-

It's back in the camphor forest on a sunny day.

The dead leaves on the ground rustled, looking up at the sky, and in the early morning of another day, I just took a short rest, and before I knew it, it was already morning.

The sun is shining.

Whew-

What to do today?

Oh yes, it seems that I have been in here two months ago, and I can't get out anyway, hehe, this forest is quite big, but the environment is also good.

There's nothing important to do at the moment, so let's cut down the trees and make a house out of wood.

Maybe I'll want to stay here for a long time.

Later, look around and see if there are any streams and rivers, maybe the stones in the creek are turned over, and there may be crabs underneath?

Thinking like this, Li Changyuan got up, there was still a campfire that had been lit last night on the ground in front of him, and when he got up this morning, he opened his eyes, and those branches and firewood had already been burned into ashes in a circle of campfire pits.

Go get busy!

It's not a problem to be idle here all the time, you have to keep yourself busy and find something to do.

I plan to live here for the rest of my life.

Ah yes, before...... What were your plans when you entered here?

Not......

…… Can't remember.

Forget it, I don't want to, let's go cut down the tree first.

Li Changyuan thought about it, got up and started to act.

Hey, I'm so lucky today, I walked around the neighborhood and came back, and I actually found an axe that someone left behind not far away, and it was still a long-handled axe.

Li Changyuan reached out and touched the blade of the axe, slid it slightly, and his fingers immediately did not cut a layer of skin.

It's dangerous, it's dangerous, it's good, it's such a sharp axe, it's rare to see, and it should be quick to cut down trees.

Thinking of this, Li Changyuan immediately set off, clenched the handle of the axe with both hands, looked at a big tree beside him, picked up the axe and cut it at the trunk.

Boast!

Boast!

Boast!

……

There was a sound, and the tree trembled.

It's still a little slow, wow before you know it, the sun is setting on the west mountain, and another day is over.

Whew, what a fulfilling day.

Looking at the wood chips coming down from the ground, and the pit of this big tree, it has been cut to a depth of three-quarters, and it will be able to bring down this big tree when I come back almost tomorrow morning.

Thinking about it this way, my heart is full of joy, and today's efforts have not been in vain.

It feels like I've forgotten something,......

Oh yes, and I'm going to have to look for a water source, how can I do without water, and then I'll see if I can grow crops here when the wooden house is built.

With such a good environment here, it's a waste not to plant something on the land.

It's not dark yet, so take advantage of the twilight to go to other places nearby!

Li Changyuan rested the long-handled axe in his hand on the ground, the head of the axe embedded in the soil, and stood leaning next to the big tree that was about to be put down.

When I go to other places in the forest, I am constantly thinking about the water, the water, and the food.

If you find a creek or a river, well, it's better to have mountain spring water, and hopefully there are fish, crabs, and shrimp in the water.

It was getting dark, and at last it was nightfall, and there was an open space in front of the forest.

Li Changyuan walked out and saw the pebble ground in front of him, and more than ten meters forward, there was a water stream that ran from right to left.

Brook!

Finally found it!

Hehe, now there is not only a food source, but also a water source, the weather is good tonight, see if the stream is cold, if it is not cold, let's take a shower tonight.

Li Changyuan happily trotted over and leaned down to squat by the stream.

At this time, it was not long after nightfall, the moon gradually rose, and a white moonlight reflected on the water surface, but unfortunately the water flow did not stop, and only the jade white ripples could be seen in the water.

'Wake up ......'

Who's talking?

'Wake up ......'

Li Changyuan stretched out his hand happily by the stream, his hands were soaked in the stream, and the cool feeling comforted his whole body and mind.

Suddenly, I heard the voice of a woman in my head.

The voice gradually began to grow louder and clearer from faintly—

'Li Changyuan, wake up......'

Li Changyuan's brows furrowed, slightly unhappy.

Who, is it okay to be idle, why are you disturbing my pure life, isn't this what I want to live such a fulfilling life?

'Don't forget, what were you going to do......

I was?

'Think ...... it'

The voice began to grow clearer and clearer.

'You're going to eat it, you're going to struggle......'

Who? Who am I going to eat?

"Leave this camphor forest and go to Yuanye Immortal Sect, you can't stay here, you ......"

Camphor forest? Isn't this camphor forest my world?

'Li Changyuan, you are a monk, you are a swordsman, you are the son of heaven, don't forget your identity as a damnation, don't forget ......'

Monks, Swordsmen, Damned ......

The woman's voice became clearer and louder, and finally, the voice exploded in Li Changyuan's mind, as if it was in his ears, deafening:

'Don't be food, the fish in the river are not you, wake up!! ’

Looking at the ripples of the moonlight in the water, it happened that at this time, there was a fish swimming down the water.

Li Changyuan suddenly had goosebumps all over his body, his abdomen trembled, and his brain and marrow jumped between heaven and hell in a trance!

Da ......

Is it the sweat on your own body?

A drop of water fell into the creek below, and that ...... Is it my cold sweat?

Rosa!

I remembered, I shouldn't be here, no, I should say yes, I can't be here.

I'm going to get out, I'm going to break this false Gensokyo!

'Rosa! ’

'You're finally awake, Li Changyuan. ’

Shattering the illusion again, as if returning to reality, the green camphor forest in front of him was like paper dyed with fire in an instant, and it was burned into a barren scene in an instant-

Dead branches and rotten leaves, crows play music, the residual wind blows the treetops, and the dusk welcomes the old days.

This is the world where the spirit of that demon beast really exists.

Here, it's me.

Here, it's it.

The black soil, the erosive and soft texture under your feet, and the rotten, foul-smelling filth inhaled in your nose.

'I'm back. ’

Lone's cry still works, and it's good. ’

'Thank you. ’

'You're welcome, look ahead. ’

Li Changyuan's eyes noticed that in front of him, the soil on the ground began to move, and the black soil began to churn gradually, trembling from faintly broken, and within ten breaths, a purple insect as big as a mountain rose from the rotten soil.

"Jia! ——”

The howling of the giant insect was very piercing.

The insect had no head, it looked like an earthworm, it was not much long, half of its body burst out of the ground, and its tail had not yet come out, and it plunged into the soil again.

And the guy's head, with many divided eyes, is shaped like a willow leaf, and the black crystal is shining.

Tossing and jumping in the soil, like a boa in the sea, it comes and goes freely. But every time it turned up and down, the debris that was splashed and turned up, carrying a large amount of filthy and stench, kept rushing towards Li Changyuan.

Li Changyuan couldn't stand the stench.

This taste is somewhat similar......

It's like the first time I killed the six men in black in the woods. This time, it is even more intuitive and shocking.

The smell of aged carrion.

'Ready. ’

Rosa reminded.

But Li Changyuan unconsciously took half a step back. This kind of thing, you can't win, right?

No matter how you look at it, you can't win, this bug...... The width of his body alone is more than two meters, and even if he presses it directly with his body, he can crush Li Changyuan to death.

Not to mention the head of this insect, dozens of pairs of eyes, all grown on both sides of the head and mouth, and its mouth, like a lamprey, spiral-shaped round mouth, with hundreds of small sharp and fragmented crowds, extending inward in a circle.

Dense fangs, like a natural meat grinder.

Li Changyuan shuddered just by looking at it.

"Jia!"

The demon beast was coming, and Li Changyuan had already thought about turning around and running away, but Rosa scolded:

You're going to hold back now, and you're going to have to stay here forever." ’

I can't win. ’

You can do it, but if you hold back, the next second you will end up like them. ’

Rosa said, guiding Li Changyuan's gaze to look forward, looking at the mouth of the lamprey, in the bottomless abyss of grinding meat, the time between breaths is short-

Time Tranquility –

At that moment, Li Changyuan faintly heard those dreamy shouts:

'I regret it,'

"Escape, I can't beat it, how can I beat such a monster?"

'There is no pain here, only gentleness, come,'

'Come, we're waiting for you here,'

'Junior, run! This is the monk's graveyard, devoured by the Mind Eater, and your soul will never be reincarnated! ’

'Come on, there's everything here,'

……

Countless calls, admonitions, and voices are endless.

True and false, gentle and stern words.

What is the first illusion here?

'I don't know, it should be the fourth, at least for sure, this illusion is where the most real remnant soul of the Mind Eater is. ’

Rosa then said:

Now, its remnant is in front of you, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, eat it, and then give it to Lonely. ’

Li Changyuan's belief was firm, and his eyes became cold:

'Good. ’

After that, I watched the heart eater churning black soil and jumping left and right towards Li Changyuan's side, not rushing in a straight line, but it was not slow.

In the blink of an eye, the Hearteater raised its head again, and one end of its round and smooth head rushed out of the black soil.

The ground in front of him was broken, and the heart eater suddenly rose to three meters in length, blocking the light in front of him, Li Changyuan instinctively raised his head, staring at the head of this guy.

In the next second, the heart eater originally looked at the sleek and shiny head, but it instantly cracked like an epiphany, beautiful and terrifying, and its mouth was facing Li Changyuan's face, and its head rushed down to Li Changyuan's humble body.

'Imagine-'

Rosa reminded that Li Changyuan had a sense in his heart, and instead of running away, he took the initiative to close his eyes consciously.

Rosa murmured again:

'Who are the hunters?' ’

The Heart Eater rushed towards Li Changyuan, and the size of the corner of his mouth was just enough to swallow Li Changyuan's body whole!

but

This is not reality, here, just dreams, here, is the spiritual world.

It's me. ’

The Heart Eater bit down, completely smothering Li Changyuan's body into his mouth, and the grinding flesh began to rotate, but the Cloud Transformation Technique was the first to operate.

Li Changyuan's spirit is strong-willed, he closes his eyes and does not see, firmly believing that he will not be eaten.

It is impossible to be eaten.

Out of sight, for the sake of purifying the heart, he directly began to run the Cloud Transformation Technique, and at the moment when the remnant soul of the Heart Eater attacked, Rosa waited in hibernation next to Li Changyuan's divine soul.

Perhaps the creatures on this star don't know what it means to be 'on par with the Heavenly Dao'.

Rosa once divided the continent, not because she split a corner of the sub-world continent that she ran out of energy and became a dry bone. At that time, it was just because the size of the black box could no longer accommodate Rosa, so Rosa could only exist in another way.

The remnants of the Mind Eater have deceived and devoured the vitality of many living beings over countless years.

I don't know that today, it is someone else's wedding dress.

"Jia ——、, hate! ——”

As long as Li Changyuan ensures that his soul is not disturbed and causes chaos, when the remnant soul of the Hearteater comes into contact with Li Changyuan's soul, Rosa's soul will be larger, instantly suppressing the remnant soul of the Hearteater, and making it -

Engulf.

Call......

I felt it. ’

Li Changyuan slowly opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him was changing rapidly. Without those dim and foul-smelling scenes and smells, it was like fire staining paper, and the scene in front of me burned out of thin air.

The blazing wind swept through the spiritual world as far as the eye could see.

The scene after being burned by karmic fire became a blank slate.

This is the spiritual world of the Hearteater, and as the remnant soul of the Hearteater is suppressed and devoured, the illusion here quickly disappears.

'I'm going out soon, so I'd better prepare. ’

Rosa said suddenly, and Li Changyuan suddenly didn't react:

'Huh? What to prepare? ’

In the blink of an eye, the illusion disappeared layer by layer, and soon, even the twilight in front of him became transparent together, and then I looked at it in a trance-

It's the scene before, and it's ......

"Poof! Not...... cough, cough, cough ......"

Damn, it's back.

Yes, this is the reality, the scene is still here, and the situation still doesn't seem to change......

It is still a camphor forest with a rich miasma, and it is still here, Li Changyuan is still unable to move, and he can't even stand up.

Rosa:

'You have the power of the Mind Eater in your body, and Lone has devoured its remnant soul, now, give it a try. ’

Li Changyuan understood that the only way that Rosa said was this.
