Chapter 64: Divine Beast

Demonic energy is born from the accumulation of evil thoughts, formless and formless, but it is like a black mist capable of devouring everything, corrupting and assimilating other living beings with its evil nature. Where the demonic energy is, vitality is decaying, desires are breeding, and the original living things will be eroded into a state between death and survival. And this apparent decay is not actually the real end of life, but the essence of being changed by the demonic energy. Under the influence of demonic energy, those innermost desires for cruelty, killing, possession, and sin will be infinitely magnified, and if they are unable to control it, they will only gradually be controlled by demonic energy, and involuntarily become puppets controlled by demonic energy, and begin to look for demonic spirits everywhere to cultivate the demonic path. And those monsters or monsters that have not been able to get the demon spirit for a long time, even the original form is gradually damaged and corrupted, and finally only a thick black qi remains, wandering in the human world, bringing the demon qi to more places and harming more people.

In fact, not all people will be controlled by demonic energy, only those who are extremely distorted in their hearts, who are already controlled by evil, and cannot extricate themselves, will be easily eroded by demonic energy, making themselves more unrestrained.

Therefore, the demonic qi was originally not harmful, it was just a unique aura emanating from the demons, but for those who were dark and evil in their hearts, the demonic qi was the best catalyst for them to do evil unscrupulously.

However, for the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon, the demonic energy was extremely dangerous. Because the spells that the nine-tailed fox demon is good at are all related to human thinking, and the nine-tailed fox demon has the unique ability to inherit the memories of their ancestors, so since they were born, their thinking is extremely sensitive, and their stored memories are particularly rich. Once those evil thoughts that they are not even aware of themselves are further stimulated by the demonic energy, the consequences are unimaginable. For the nine-tailed fox demon, being a demon clan is the supreme honor, and they will never let go of their pride and become a demon clan.

Ruyuan and I crossed the abyss of thought again, and as before, Ruyuan was not affected by the enchantment. I'm speculating, but I'm still not sure.

I stopped at the edge of the crack in the abyss of thought, this time, I deliberately suppressed my emotional fluctuations with a stronger will, but despite this, I was still unconsciously affected by the deep and endless darkness. When I involuntarily look into the depths of a crack, I always feel like a force is trying to drag me in. And the breath that emanates from the cracks is still cold and damp, but it makes people feel extremely pure. So the feelings in my heart were pulled out again. But for a moment, I was taken aback by my sudden thought: I thought that if I jumped from here, I could return to the beauty I hoped for!

I woke up suddenly, turned my head to look at Ruyuan behind me, who had been looking at me with surprised eyes, but cold sweat was already oozing from my palms unconsciously. How could I want to jump out of here? And when I looked into the darkness again, I gasped again. From this moment on, I felt that this abyss of thought was far more terrifying than I had imagined.

"Let's go. I stepped back, trying to get away from the abyss that was beginning to make me shudder, urging Ruyuan to get out of here.

We followed the same path back to the stone tablet engraved with the pattern of the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain, and the surrounding plants still exuded wisps of aura, which was very different from the place where the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was now. And somehow, I haven't fully recovered from my reverie about the abyss of thought.

"Yinluo, it's ......" Ruyuan reminded me in a whisper.

Then I noticed that we were already standing in front of the huge stone monument.

"Please, the Ancient Divine Beast Jairus will appear!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a powerful spiritual power fluctuation around me, and the stone tablet trembled slightly, this strong force seemed to be enough to shake the earth, but when I felt it carefully, I found that everything had not moved at all.

"What are you calling me for?"

The deep and heavy voice sounded in my ears, and I took a deep breath and watched as my huge body gradually appeared in front of me and Ruyuan.

"I'm here to tell you you've failed in your duties. "I met Jair's eyes, and from its fiery eyes, a flame of anger burned at any moment. But I didn't shy away from it, but looked at it directly.

I heard a dull roar, and suddenly I felt the ground under my feet tremble, this time it was a real tremor, and there was a strong force that penetrated my entire body.

"Erxiu is going to talk nonsense!" snarled the eyes.

"You said that the great god of Shennong sent you to guard the tomb of the goddess, but now you let the demonic energy spread around the tomb of the goddess and pretend to ignore it, isn't it a dereliction of duty?"

"Presumptuous!"

I only felt a sense of earth-shaking dizziness rushing over my face, and my anger suddenly rose, and a scorching flame suddenly swept through the surrounding land and plants, and even the soles of my feet seemed to be scorched. Although I wanted to provoke it with words, I never expected it to be so angry. If it really wants to destroy us, I'm afraid that Ruyuan and I will have no power to fight back. And at this moment, I can only hold back the fear in my heart and communicate with it in a different way.

"Please calm your anger, Great God! I'm just a little demon, and I don't deserve your wrath like this. We are here just to think, you have been here to protect the tomb of the goddess for thousands of years, should you just let the goddess yin spirit be disturbed by this demonic energy?"

As the words fell, the flames of anger in my eyes also subsided a little, so I continued: "I heard that the ancient god Shennong has always cherished all living beings, and he will never bear to see anything happen to them. Although the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan had accidentally offended the Goddess Yin Spirit, after all, the sin was not enough to destroy the clan. You have set up a boundary for the entire Nine-Tailed Fox Clan to trap in this Lingzhi forbidden domain, but now that enchantment has gradually been eroded by demonic energy, if you continue to sit idly by, I am afraid that there will be a lot of death around the tomb of this goddess, wouldn't it be a blasphemy of the goddess?"

Jairus listened silently, still breathing heavily in her nose, but the anger gradually subsided. The skin on its forehead folded into a few furrows, as if it was thinking, but it seemed to hesitate.

"The Great ...... of the Eyelids"

"The matter of the tomb of the goddess can not be interfered with, and my duty of guardianship is not something that you can understand. The nine-tailed fox clan has violated the majesty of the goddess, and it is not what you think, I advise you to get involved, as for you, the nine-tailed fox demon, you can't restrict your actions even if you are enchanted, so I will not pursue it anymore, and leave quickly!"

My mind exploded suddenly, and I heard the words of the eyes in a fog. Even if it would be angry, or it would be stopped, I really didn't expect it to say that. I suddenly had a vague feeling: perhaps, the secret in this Lingzhi forbidden domain is not as simple as we seem, and the misunderstanding between the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan and the Divine Maiden is also too many details that we don't know. Listening to Jianxi's words, it seemed that it had always known about the breeding of demonic qi in the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain, but why could it ignore it?

What's even more amazing is that that inexplicable curiosity has once again invaded my mind, making me want to explore these things that obviously have nothing to do with me. Or maybe it's because of the breath that I felt in the abyss of thought two times before, the kind of power that dragged me deeply, as if in the abyss that could not be seen, there was a secret hidden in my heart, calling me to uncover the veil of darkness.

At this time, the brocade ribbon containing the jade ruyi fragment in my arms suddenly heated slightly, as if it was a kind of foreshadowing, and it was also urging me to do what I wanted in my heart.

"Since the Great God can sit idly by, I can only follow my own inference to find out. Regarding the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, since I promised to find the root of the demonic qi, I will not give up easily. Anyway, I don't have much time left, and if I can really save the lives of a family, my life will still have some value. ”

After saying that, I gave Ruyuan a look, and I was ready to go back in the direction I had just come.

"Wait a minute!"

I suddenly felt a tremor under my feet, and then a hot burning sensation hit my whole body along the soles of my feet, making my heart tighten unconsciously. In a panic, I looked up and hurriedly retracted my usual steps. The huge body between Jianyuan was already in front of me and Ruyuan.

"Get out of here!" shouted Jairus.

"We originally came from the enchantment of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, and now we just want to go back and at least give the patriarch an explanation. ”

"You're going to be angry with me!" Jairus roared again, and I felt the burning sensation on the soles of my feet suddenly increase.

I don't know why Jairs suddenly became so violent, as if anger was about to erupt, and that deep uneasiness spread through my heart again. But at this point, Ruyuan and I have no other choice, can we really leave the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain unclearly? Maybe, after we leave, Jairian will set an enchantment on the entire Lingzhi Forbidden Domain, and it will be impossible to come back.

Therefore, in the current situation, Ruyuan and I have only one way to go.

"The great god said before that as long as we don't damage every plant or tree in this forest, we won't interfere with our actions, but now we are so pressing, I really can't understand it. I also asked the great god to let him go, since the great god asked us not to interfere in the matter of the Lingzhi forbidden domain, we had to go back and give the nine-tailed fox patriarch an answer. ”

Before I could finish speaking, the wind was raging around me, and the ground beneath my feet was so hot that we couldn't stand on it, and Ruyuan and I had to hang in the air, barely able to avoid the flaming heat that kept rising upward.

The roar of the eyes resounded throughout the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain, and the deafening loud sound filled my entire ears, and the huge pressure pressed into my body through both ears.

The claws of Jair's forefeet swung in the air, their edges flashing with a terrifying glint on their fingertips, and every time those feet collided with the ground, I felt the heat rushing up from the ground a little higher than that. I'm sure Jair's anger has reached its extreme, and it's accumulating all its anger just waiting to deal a fatal blow to me and Ruyuan. In front of it, we are like ants at this time, and we can be crushed to pieces just by falling together.

My heart was beating violently in my chest, and I deeply felt the power of this ancient beast that we couldn't fight at all, like fate was fleeing in a panic, and those rising waves of heat were like flames, and if I wasn't careful, I would leave a red burn mark on her otherwise smooth and flawless skin. I saw her talking in my direction, but I could not hear what she was saying, because the roar of her eyes had already drowned out all sounds.

"Fire ...... Fire ...... "There was only this clear thought left in my mind, and the feeling of being burned all over my body had exhausted my physical strength, and in this case, all my spells, even if I used them, seemed to be nothing more than moths to the fire.

Moths to the fire...... Water can fight fires......

"Water!"

I suddenly shouted at Ruyuan, although I wasn't sure if she could hear it, but this was the only chance, if I waited for Jairus to finish accumulating, then Ruyuan and I would have no chance to survive at all.

Fortunately, Ruyuan also seemed to understand what I meant, and when I urged the spiritual power to pull out the white silk in my sleeve, Ruyuan also condensed the golden spiritual power, which merged with the white silk into the same line, and then quickly rushed to the rear, and suddenly changed direction, bypassing the stone tablet in Li, and behind the stone tablet, is the hole where the rolling and turbulent river water converges.

The entrance of the cave was originally connected to the outside world and the Lingzhi forbidden domain, and the reason why the river could not flow in was naturally because there was an enchantment at the entrance of the cave, and I don't know who set it up, let alone how strong it was, if it was based on the divine power of the god Shennong, it would be impossible for anyone in the Three Realms to open it. Therefore, now I only hope to tear a hole in this barrier, even if it is only for a moment, I can let the raging river gush in, and this is the only chance for me and Ruyuan to escape!

Ruyuan and I both used ten layers of spiritual power, and I also secretly urged the power of the Cangrong Sword, and all the spiritual power merged into one and hit the invisible enchantment. Suddenly, a huge impact made the barrier manifest, and a bright light pierced my eyes, and even the roar of my eyes shook, and my heart raced, and I knew that we had succeeded.

And at the same time, at this critical moment, whether Ruyuan can hear it or not, I shouted:

"Dive in!"

This is our only hope, and if we miss this moment, the barrier will repair itself and close, and Ruyuan and I will surely die under the claws of Jairus.

As soon as I finished speaking, I was swept up in a strong force, and then my whole body froze, and my figure disappeared, and the heat around me disappeared, and I lost my balance and was carried up and down by the force.

I was already in the midst of the waves that poured in from the barrier, surging straight into the depths of the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain. And the end of this current is naturally only one place: the boundless and bottomless abyss of thought that is submerged in darkness......
