Yunzhi was surprised to find that Jie Wei was falling at an unusual speed after going down. It was not like the speed in the water, but more like the speed of falling in the air.
Yunzhi felt relieved, nodded to Qing'er Baiyu, and jumped down with his eyes closed.
As Jie Wei expected, the water below was not water. The water should be a blindfold. Yunzhi found that she could breathe normally. She opened her eyes tremblingly and found that she was falling slowly.
Yunzhi was a little surprised that Jie Wei could find out about this. He should have observed the situation discovered by other guards. Unexpectedly, he was not high in cultivation and was quite thoughtful...
Not long after, Yunzhi stopped falling and stood firmly on the ground. Jie Wei stood not far from her, and then Qing'er and Ye Baiyu also fell down together.
This place is completely different from the scene seen from above.
They were in a huge cone-shaped cave. It was so dark and gloomy that it was hard to see with your hands. The only light source was a beam of white light coming from the top in the middle of the cave. The light fell, illuminating the huge white ball floating in mid-air in the middle. It shone brightly in the darkness, as if like the brightest pearl in the dark night, guiding the direction of the lost wanderer.
That was exactly the white ball they saw before, and it was now placed there, surrounded by circles of guards guarding it.
Yunzhi took the three of them and hid secretly. Yunzhi discovered that there were not only the guards who had just fallen down in the cave, but also other people in various costumes, including men, women, old and young, and even mothers with babies. , these people should appear to be civilians.
Not far from them, there was a road leading to the outside world. People kept coming in from there, and guards went out from there.
She made the right bet, Yunzhi thought to himself, they would definitely be able to get out from that way. Once they got out, they could find a place to hide for 7 days and the trial would be over.
Yunzhi briefly talked to the others and prepared to take them away from that road.
The journey to that road went very smoothly, no one suspected that they were behaving differently, and some civilians even took the initiative to say hello to them.
When they reached the intersection, the crowd suddenly burst into loud cheers, and everyone squatted down. Yunzhi and the others didn't have time to react. For a while, they were the only four people standing nearby.
Yunzhi subconsciously looked towards the place where the cheers came from, and saw that the originally pure white ball in the middle had now become transparent, and there was actually a person hidden in the ball.
To be precise, it is a mermaid with human body and fish tail.
He looked extremely fragile, with no clothes on his body, his hands folded on his chest, and his eyes tightly closed. The ears are as slender as fish fins, and the blue fish scales on the tail are shining. The exposed skin looks like it can be broken by a blow. The ink-like black hair is scattered randomly around the body, with a few strands falling in front of him, as if he is The last protection for yourself.
This was the most beautiful man she had ever seen, even more beautiful than God Fucang. Yunzhi was stunned on the spot for a moment. He turned out to be a shark, and he looked similar to Yunzhi and the others. Could it be that he was a member of the shark clan in this world?
Not sure if he felt Yunzhi's eyes, the shark opened his eyes suddenly.
He saw Yunzhi standing at a glance.
The moment he saw Yunzhi, a look of shock appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but shed tears. The tears turned into pearls and fell into the ball that trapped him.
Soon, the others stood up one after another as if they had completed a certain ritual, and Yunzhi and the others quickly followed suit to hide themselves.
At this time, Yunzhi felt that the brocade bag that was hanging quietly on her waist suddenly started to shake. Yunzhi opened the brocade bag with one hand, and an emotionless female voice came from the brocade bag: "The target has been found, try Refining mission update: Save me home."
The other foreigners didn't react as if they hadn't heard anything, but Qing'er and the other three looked at Yunzhi one after another. Qing'er whispered, "Master, was it you who said that just now?"
Yunzhi shook her head and pointed at the kit. The three of them understood what she meant.
The trial place is the real world, and the trial tasks are also the real wishes of every mortal. The Immortal Alliance will not do meaningless things, and the trial tasks are selected from thousands of wishes in the world. In this way, disciples of various schools can not only get exercise during trials, but also help others and accumulate their own merit.
The Immortal Alliance will not interfere with the affairs of other worlds. Yunzhi remembers that there is a clan of sharks in the ocean. Like Yunzhi and others, they all have black eyes and black hair. They can also practice and live in the world with others.
Combined with the sentence at the beginning of the previous trial mission prompt, "I shed tears in the South China Sea and finally return, and many parties have fulfilled my wish." The four of them knew in their hearts at this moment that their goal in this trial was to rescue the shark and bring him back. He returned to the mortal world.
But their initial goal was to only stay in the trial place for 7 days before giving up and returning...
Yunzhi felt that the shark's eyes had been staying in their direction. She looked back and saw that the shark was indeed looking at her. Seeing Yunzhi looking at her, the same man blinked his left eye at her three times.
Suddenly, Yunzhi felt a strange feeling in her heart. She felt that she had gone through so much just to meet him on this day.
Looking at his sad expression, Yunzhi seemed to sympathize with his emotions. She suddenly had an idea in her mind. No matter what, she must rescue him. She didn't want him to be trapped here. More importantly, , she wanted to talk to him, wanted to know his name.
Fucang, who was pretending to be Jie Wei, naturally knew what was going on. The shark used the unique secret technique of the Shark tribe on Yunzhi: the charm technique. People who have mastered this technique will fall in love with the sharks and obey their words.
Jie Wei's mana is now limited and he cannot break Yunzhi's charm spell. He can only take Yunzhi away while the shark is trapped and cannot attack Yunzhi.
So he said to Yunzhi: "Master, let's leave quickly."
Yunzhi's heart and eyes were full of sharks at the moment, but her reason told her that now was a good time to leave. But she saw that the ball trapping the shark changed again. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't we wait a moment. They seem to be performing some kind of ceremony. I'm curious about what they are doing."
The ball gradually descended and finally landed on the ground. At this time, only a thin skin was left on the ball, as if it would break if touched. The shark still maintained the same posture as before, hanging motionless in the air, but now he closed his eyes and had no expression.
The two guards closest to the ball glanced at each other, nodded to each other, each held a short sword, and walked towards the shark. At this moment, everyone was silent, and the place suddenly became extremely quiet, with only the footsteps of the guards clicking.
Then, a scene that Yunzhi will never forget appeared.
The two men stood next to the shark, each holding down one of the shark's shoulders. One of the guards wiped the knife on his hand with his clothes, and then made a sharp slash across the shark's body where the human body and the fish tail merged.
Bright red blood spurted out, dyeing his beautiful blue fish scales red, but the shark just closed his eyes tightly and said nothing.
Then, the guard aimed at the bottom of the shark's belly button, inserted the knife straight in, and then applied force downwards. The knife slashed from the top down until it reached the fish's tail, slicing the shark's fish tail open in the middle. A cut seemed to split the fish tail into two.
The knife didn't penetrate deeply, so there wasn't much blood, but the skin and flesh that was opened could be clearly seen by everyone.
Then, he flipped the knife and cut another circle around the fish's tail.
At this time, another person skillfully bent down and pulled the fish skin out hard. With a tearing sound, a disgusting smell of blood hit his face, and a complete fish skin with flashing fish scales came out. Fish skin appeared on his hands.
They...are actually skinning the sharks alive...
At this time, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers, and everyone here had happy smiles on their faces. The two guards let go of the shark, and the shark fell straight to the ground, motionless, as if he had lost his support.
The skinned guard carefully held the fish skin with a proud expression on his face. The others also stared at the fish skin closely, showing expressions of excitement like a harvest.
No one cares whether the sharks on the ground are alive or dead.
Yunzhi stared blankly at the blood-covered shark. Not long after, the shark's fish tail began to grow fish skin bit by bit. The shark's eyes were still closed, but his fists were clenched and his whole body was trembling. It seemed to be thousands of times more painful than before.
Yunzhi felt a heat on his face, and when he touched it with his hand, there were tears.
She actually cried...
Yunzhi thought of the rules of the Trial Land mission and how painful it must have been for him to turn his strong thoughts into prayers and pass them through the foreign world to the mortal world...
The ball quickly condensed again, and it slowly floated to where the shark was, swallowing him bit by bit, and finally floated into the air again. The same guy was trapped in the ball again, with his hands crossed and his eyes closed. Even the position of his hair was exactly the same as before.
The guard who just held the fish skin folded it up, then walked under the white ball, bowed deeply to the white ball, and then started chanting.
The white ball suddenly glowed with a strong green light. When the green light faded, a cloaked man in black appeared from the white ball, and finally slowly fell to the ground.
It turned out to be the man in black they saw just now.
The man in black walked up to the guard and took off his cloak. Under the cloak was an exotic girl with two golden braids that reached the ground.
She doesn't have wings on her back like other foreigners, her body shape is almost the same as that of humans in the world.
The most eye-catching thing is her face. Regardless of her green pupils that are as beautiful as emeralds, her face is actually engraved with so many words that her original appearance can no longer be seen, which makes her look very scary.
The girl's mouth turned down, her face was expressionless, and she looked around quietly. She has a powerful aura about her that no one can ignore.
Seeing her, everyone began to squat down and salute again, and shouted loudly. Yunzhi realized this time and hurriedly squatted down with her.
But this time the calls were far more violent than last time, and they came one after another with no intention of stopping.
The girl nodded slightly to the guard, then pulled out a piece of her blond hair and placed it on the fish skin. She closed her eyes and muttered something. The fish skin gradually glowed blue, shrinking and changing, and finally turned into a blue water drop the size of a dragon's eye. , suspended in the air.
The blonde girl took out a transparent bottle from the pocket hanging on her body. With a wave of her hand, water droplets flew into the bottle.
There was another burst of cheers.
Yunzhi was still looking at the shark, but she suddenly felt a gaze. She turned her head and found that the blond girl was looking at her.
Yunzhi suddenly became nervous. Could it be that she discovered her disguise?
