Because opening the inner layer of Yehe Secret Realm requires going to a designated location, Chang Yue and the little monk set out again the next morning.
The two of them followed the prompts given by the Mirror of All Things to find the location to open the inner secret realm, while collecting the medicinal materials they encountered along the way.
"Female donor, look at the beautiful fruits growing on that tree!" The sharp-eyed little monk pointed to the cliff not far away, and saw a small tree as tall as a person growing on it, with seven or eight knots on it. A fiery red fruit, "It looks delicious!"
"That's the Red Blood Fruit, it's a good thing!" Chang Yue said in surprise.
The red blood fruit is a special fruit that can replenish qi and blood. If a warrior can eat one when practicing, his training efficiency will be greatly improved. It is a rare treasure outside.
"Little monk, just wait, I will pick the fruits right away." After saying that, Changyue jumped up and easily jumped to the top of the cliff. She stepped on a protruding rock, and then reached out to pick the fruits. Red blood fruit.
The Red Blood Fruits are not only fiery red in color, but also have crystal clear skin. Each one is about the size of a fist, and looks more like rubies when viewed up close. They are very beautiful. No wonder the little monk praised them for their beauty when he saw them from a distance.
However, before Chang Yue could touch the red blood fruit, a red shadow suddenly shot out and struck towards Chang Yue's wrist like lightning.
Chang Yue subconsciously dodged, but Red Shadow's sneak attack failed and landed on a rock not far away.
Only then did Chang Yue see that what was attacking him was actually a small snake that was all red and as transparent as jade.
The little snake was only three or four inches long, but it stared at Changyue eagerly. The snake kept hesitating, as if to say: Don't move, or I won't be polite!
Obviously this snake is guarding the red blood fruit.
Changyue didn't care about the obstruction of a little snake. If the snake dared to attack her again, don't blame her for being ruthless.
Thinking like this, Changyue glared at the little red snake, warning it not to overestimate its capabilities.
But at this moment, the appearance of Chang Yue in the little snake's eyes suddenly changed. Chang Yue's original dark pupils suddenly turned silver, and the round pupils also turned into the vertical pupils unique to snakes at that moment.
"Hiss~"
A coercion from the blood suddenly came to the little red snake. The little red snake felt that its soul was trembling. It instinctively huddled up and trembled all over. It looked extremely pitiful.
Chang Yue's second body is closely connected with the main body. Although they seem to be two unrelated individuals, there is me in you and you in me, so some of the characteristics of Xuanyin Snake are secretly revealed in Chang Yue's main body. superior.
Logically speaking, this kind of secret would be difficult for people to see, but at this moment, this ordinary little snake, which was not even a strange beast, unexpectedly saw it.
Um? What's wrong? Am I so terrible?
Changyue didn't understand why the little snake suddenly became so scared. She just glared at it casually. It wasn't so scary (snake), right?
But she didn't think much, ignored the little snake, and reached out to pick the red blood fruit. This time, the little snake didn't stop her.
There were eight red blood fruits in total. Changyue saw that the little snake was still aware of current affairs, so she only picked six of them. She and the little monk each divided three of them, and the remaining two were left to the little snake, otherwise it would be hard to see Very pitiful.
After picking the fruit, Changyue jumped down from the cliff and said to the young monk: "Okay, let's go! Keep the fruit here with me first, and we will divide it when we go back." Her mirror of all things can nourish Fruits and herbs, so the harvest of the two people along the way was stored in the mirror of all things.
The two turned and left, and the little red snake on the cliff looked at Chang Yue's back in confusion.
It has not yet developed its intelligence and does not think too much. It only feels that there is something about that human being that attracts it, and it can't help but surrender to her.
The little snake's doubts only lasted for a short while. Because of its low intelligence, it decided to act on instinct.
Quickly scurrying up the red blood fruit tree, the little snake ate the remaining two fruits in three swipes, and then flew down the cliff like a bolt of lightning, chasing in the direction where Chang Yue and the little monk left.
Chang Yue and the little monk were walking when several men with fierce faces suddenly appeared in front of them. They attacked the two of them without saying a word.
Fortunately, Chang Yue and the young monk were both masters of the Condensation Realm, and were among the top warriors who entered the secret realm. Their attackers were all killed quickly.
The strange thing is that when Chang Yue and the young monk touched the corpses, they did not find any medicinal herbs or treasures on these people. Instead, they found palm-sized jade bottles.
Is it some kind of treasure?
Changyue opened one of them, and a strong smell of blood suddenly filled his face, making the smoker almost vomit out his overnight meal.
"This is...blood?! What blood?"
"Look, little monk, show me, little monk!" The curious little monk hurried over and his little face wrinkled up.
"Female donor, this seems to be a pain in the ass!" the young monk said uncertainly.
"A heartache?" Chang Yue was shocked, "Could it be that these people sneak attack us because of our heartache?"
A warrior's blood is of vital importance and is related to the origin of the human body. Once too much blood is lost, the body will become weak and sick, or the body and soul will disappear.
Different from ordinary blood, the heart blood only exists in the heart. If the warrior is drained of his blood, he can barely get one tael, but the jade bottle in front of him contains more than one tael.
The important thing is that the two of them found twenty or thirty jade bottles containing their blood on these people. In other words, they killed at least thirty people.
"Female donor, they must be members of the devil's path." The young monk said firmly.
A large part of the techniques practiced by people in the demonic path have a strong smell of blood. For example, Chang Yue uses jade to practice the Jade Bone Art, but they use blood, hearts, babies, etc. In short, it is very brutal.
"Perhaps, I just don't know which side of the devil they belong to." Chang Yue frowned and said, not knowing whether there are still such people in the secret realm and how many people have been killed.
There are no signs of identity on these people.
After destroying the body and the jade bottle containing their blood, the two continued to set off.
What Chang Yue and the young monk didn't know was that sneak attacks like them were happening all over the secret realm.
…………
Li Changming was running fast in a forest. His originally bamboo-green clothes were stained red with blood. Some of the blood belonged to him, and some belonged to others.
He really couldn't understand that his friend with whom he had been chatting and laughing not long ago was now collaborating with others to kill him.
"Brother Changming, you'd better surrender and be captured, don't make any more unnecessary struggles."
There were three people chasing Li Changming. If Chang Yue were here at this time, he would be surprised to find that two of the three people were the people who entered the secret realm with Li Changming before, and the other was Gongsun Long.
There were a total of six people who entered the secret realm with Li Changming. They were all friends he had made during his travels in the rivers and lakes. However, after entering the secret realm, he found out that four of the six people were sent by the Demonic Underworld Sect to sneak into the Thirteen Prefectures secretly. Yes, thanks to their sanctimonious appearance before.
As soon as these people entered the secret realm, they killed him and another person. The other person died because of his low cultivation level, and Li Changming tried his best to kill two people from the Huangquan Demon Sect.
His cultivation level is pretty good, so it should not be a problem to escape from the remaining two people, but he didn't expect that Gongsun Long would appear halfway. This man is also a member of the Underworld Demon Sect, and his cultivation level is very advanced, and he is suspected of being in the Shangyuan realm. Master.
This time when the Yehe Secret Realm was opened, the Huangquan Demon Sect seemed to have sent many people to sneak in, trying to find something, and massacred other warriors to collect their blood.
Li Changming ignored the advice behind him and just ran for his life, but Gongsun Long seemed to be almost catching up with him.
"Heart-Eating Palm!"
Gongsun Long raised his right hand and slapped Li Changming from behind. The strong wind carried the dark palm force, which looked very strange.
Qiang~
Just as the palm was about to fall on Li Changming's back, a silver-white sword light suddenly appeared out of thin air, splitting the black palm force into two, and then pushed back Gongsun Long who was approaching Li Changming.
"Demon demon, don't be arrogant!" A soft shout came, and a woman in white appeared on a big tree not far away at some time. She held a long sword and looked down with a cold face. Gongsun Long and three other people.
As soon as the woman finished speaking, another girl in green clothes and a woman in green clothes landed next to the woman in white clothes, each holding a long sword in their hands.
Among them, the youngest woman in green shirt was the most jealous. She looked at the three Huangquan Sect members below angrily and said: "It's you remnants of the Demon Sect again who dare to cause trouble in Minzhou. Today, you will never come back!"
The three of them had also been attacked by Demon Sect disciples before.
"A disciple of Tianya Hai Pavilion?" Gongsun Long said with a chuckle.
"You still have some knowledge, look at the sword!"
The woman in green shirt flew down from the tree with a sword, her long sword was like a dragon, pointing directly at Gongsun Long.
"Qier, don't be impulsive!"
The woman in white clothes saw that Gongsun Long was not simple, and wanted to stop her junior sister from taking action rashly, but it was obviously too late. The woman in green clothes named Qi'er had already made contact with Gongsun Long.
Gongsun Long easily held Qi'er's sword with two fingers, and lightly patted Qi'er's chest with his other hand.
Qi'er is only a warrior in the Kai Pulse Realm, so how can he be the opponent of a master in the Condensing Yuan Realm, not to mention that Gongsun Long is suspected of being in the Shangyuan Realm.
Li Changming, who was not far away, saw this and quickly took action. He waved the spear in his hand, shook the tip of the spear, and the spear thrust forward like a dragon emerging from the water, blocking Gongsun Long's palm in time.
At this time, the attack from the woman in white also arrived. Her cultivation was much stronger than that of junior sister Qi'er. She swung out her sword, and the sharp sword light forced Gongsun Long to not let go and retreat.
The woman in green faced off against two other people from the Underworld Demon Sect. Her cultivation level was also good, and she was able to handle one-on-one with ease.
"Hmph!" Gongsun Long was unhappy when he saw that he was at a disadvantage. He snorted softly, his eyes suddenly flashed with blood, and he didn't know when a long blood-colored whip appeared in his hand.
Snapped!
Gongsun Long swung out his whip and collided with the long sword of the woman in white. The woman in white felt a huge force coming from her, and the long sword in her hand suddenly came out.
Her face changed drastically and she shouted: "No, the demon is too strong and invincible, retreat quickly!"
Qi'er and the woman in green shirt have no other merits except listening to advice. When they heard the shouts of their senior sister, one grabbed the injured Li Changming and forced the two enemies back with one sword. A ball appeared in their hands at the same time.
The three women threw the balls in their hands on the ground at the same time, and a thick smoke suddenly appeared, covering the four of them in the blink of an eye.
"I want to leave!" Gongsun Long waved his whip decisively, "Dream!"
The woman in white couldn't dodge and was hit on the shoulder by the long whip. Fortunately, she used her Qinggong in time and retreated gracefully into the thick fog, disappearing from Gongsun Long's sight.
When the thick fog dissipated, the four people had disappeared.
"As expected of a disciple of Tianya Hai Pavilion..." Gongsun Long whispered with unclear meaning.
"Master Gongsun, what should we do next?" The other two people walked to Gongsun Long and asked respectfully.
"Trash!" Gongsun Long glanced at the two of them, "Continue to collect your blood!" After saying that, he strode away.
On the other side, Changyue and the little monk found a piece of ginseng and were digging it excitedly.
"Female donor, do you think my penis is big?" the young monk asked with a showy face, holding up a freshly dug ginseng. His white face was covered with mud.
When Chang Yue saw that the ginseng was as thick as a radish, it looked like it must be at least a hundred years old, so he gave a thumbs up and said, "Awesome!"
Although the little monk didn't know what the female donor's thumbs up meant, he still smiled happily.
"Okay, don't finish digging, leave some for future generations."
Seeing that the ginseng was almost dug out, Chang Yue called the young monk to leave. The two didn't go far when they suddenly saw two women being surrounded by people, and each of them was carrying a person on their back.
"Is that Li Changming?"
Changyue recognized at a glance that the woman in green shirt was carrying his cheap brother.
Seeing that the two women were gradually at a disadvantage, Changyue called to the young monk and said, "Little monk, help!" After saying that, he took the lead in joining the battle.
With the help of two Condensation Realm masters, the battle soon became one-sided. Those who besieged the two women were killed by Chang Yue and the young monk Xuan Kong within a short time.
Like the people Chang Yue and the others met before, these people also carried many jade bottles containing the blood of warriors.
The two women were extremely embarrassed and exhausted at the moment, but they still managed to thank Chang Yue and the little monk.
"Tianya Hai Pavilion, Han Yuanqi and Mu Lian, thank you both for your help."
Han Yuanqi is the name of the woman in green shirt, and Mu Lian is the name of the woman in green shirt.
Changyue waved her hand and said: "Sanxiu Baiyi, this is Xuankong. You two girls don't need to thank me. We have also suffered similar attacks. Do you know where these people come from?"
Han Yuanqi said angrily: "These are demons from the Underworld Demon Sect. For some reason, they sneaked into the secret realm and massacred the warriors to collect their blood."
Underworld Demon Sect?
Changyue instantly thought of the Mirror of All Things and the inner layer of the Yehe Secret Realm. Could it be that the Underworld Demon Sect's massive invasion was for these two?
After thinking about it for a while, Chang Yue calmly looked at Li Changming and the woman in white behind Han Yuanqi and Mu Lian and asked, "Who are these two?"
Mu Lian introduced: "The one on my back is our senior sister Lin Miaoxue, and the one on my junior sister's back is Li Changming, the son of the Li family in Mingyue City."
Not long after they escaped from Gongsun Long, Li Changming fainted due to his injuries and only had time to introduce himself.
Lin Miaoxue suddenly fainted afterwards.
They were also unlucky. Just after escaping from Gongsun Long, they met other teams from the Huangquan Demon Sect who were collecting their blood, so they were besieged again.
Originally, with the master Lin Miaoxue here, the miscellaneous fishes of the Underworld Demon Sect could not do anything to them, but Lin Miaoxue was injured because of Gongsun Long's last whip.
That whip was very strange, it actually contained alien energy. The alien energy was like tarsal maggots entrenched in Lin Miaoxue's wounds.
In the subsequent battle, as soon as Lin Miaoxue used her zhenqi, the alien zhenqi remaining on the wound began to corrode her meridians, and she fainted soon after.
After understanding the attack on several people, Chang Yue asked doubtfully: "Then why didn't you leave the secret realm without a token?" No matter how many and precious the opportunities in the secret realm are, they are still no more valuable than your own life!
Mentioning this, Han Yuanqi was almost pissed off: "That old woman Hua Linglong must have done something, that token is useless." As she said that, she took out her token and put her energy into it. , but the token remained unmoved and did not teleport them out at all.
"Junior sister, the Lord of Huacheng is a senior of the Chaoyun Sect after all. There is no way he can do anything about it. Maybe the people from the Huangquan Demon Sect did something in the secret realm. This time they are coming in a menacing way, and maybe they are brewing some conspiracy. ." Although Mu Lian also disliked Hua Linglong, she still expressed her views objectively.
Hua Linglong and their master have a bit of a grudge, so they don't like each other, but this is a personal grudge and has nothing to do with anything else.
Chang Yue didn't expect that the token would be invalid. She took out her own piece and tried to put some Qi into it. Sure enough, just like Han Yuanqi's piece, there was no reaction at all.
"Your senior sister and Mr. Li are both injured. It's better to find a place to help them heal their injuries first," Chang Yue suggested.
"Yes, yes, senior sister's injury is more important." At this point, Han Yuanqi almost cried.
So a few people found a place to put Lin Miaoxue and Li Changming down.
Li Changming's condition is not bad. Although his injuries are not serious, they are only superficial injuries. He will recover quickly if he takes good care of himself.
But Lin Miaoxue was different. The alien energy entrenched in her wound was so stubborn that no one present could expel it.
"What should I do? Will something happen to Senior Sister if this continues?" Seeing Lin Miaoxue's face getting paler and paler, Han Yuanqi was so anxious that tears kept rolling in his eyes.
Although Mu Lian didn't speak, it could be seen that he was equally anxious.
At this time, Chang Yue suddenly thought of something. After hesitating for a while, she said to the two women: "I have a thing that may be able to remove this alien energy, but I can't guarantee whether it can be successful."
"Really?" Han Yuanqi was ecstatic when he heard it, "No matter whether it succeeds or not, we will be grateful."
Mu Lian also echoed: "Please ask the girl to help."
After Changyue nodded, she pretended to take out a wooden box as long as an arm from the package behind her. The wooden box contained several Xiguang trout.
The greatest effect of Xiguang Trout on warriors is to purify their physiques. The alien Qi is also an impurity for ordinary warriors, so maybe Xiguang Trout can remove it.
"This is it?" The two women looked at the transparent fish in the box in confusion.
"Have you two heard of Xiguang Trout?" Changyue asked.
"Could this be..." the two of them exclaimed in unison.
Changyue nodded: "Exactly, Xiguang Trout can purify a warrior's physique, and maybe it can remove the alien energy in Miss Lin's body."
"This is too precious..." Mu Lian hesitated.
"It doesn't matter, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda." Changyue waved her hand and said that the two of them didn't need to mind.
It was mainly these three people who saved Li Changming.
Although the relationship between Chang Yue and Li Changming was not a good one, he was her blood relative after all, and they were just a few Xiguang trout. She still had plenty on hand, so there was no need to be stingy.
"Thank you so much, girl."
