"Who are you?"
There was no panic or confusion as Xuan Jue imagined. Pei Wende's expression didn't even change at all when he heard the word "earth dragon".
"Huh? You already know your life experience?"
Frowning slightly, it was Xuan Jue's turn to be a little surprised this time.
"I didn't know it originally, but I found out not long ago, and your appearance made me even more convinced of it."
Pei Wende is not the "protagonist" in the novels and comics of his previous life. Since he knows that he may have some physical problems, he naturally cannot wait for problems to come to his door.
Especially after the battle at Mulian Temple, Pei Wende had already learned from Huiji that he had been possessed by an evil spirit, which caused the evil energy of the earth veins in a radius of more than ten miles to create the "earth dragon turning over" phenomenon.
Pei Wende is now almost certain that the power in his body has some kind of close connection with the dragon veins that exist between the mountains and forests.
The close connection between this power and the dragon's veins allowed Pei Wende to vaguely perceive certain things happening in the mountains and forests.
Moreover, this power seems to have an inexplicable affinity with the evil spirits of heaven and earth, making it the best possession target for evil spirits like Sword Soul that feed on evil spirits.
"Okay! It seems that I have underestimated you."
Xuan Jue's expression was still relaxed, but Pei Wende noticed a slight difference in the other person's tone.
"Now that you already know the existence of that power, let's change the way we start!"
There was a slight pause in his tone, and then Xuan Jue, who regarded Pei Wende as his real "opponent", said calmly.
"I am a monster. I have been cultivating monsters for hundreds of years..."
"Generally speaking, there are very few mortals who can be seen by me."
"But you are different. You are now qualified to know my name."
As he spoke, Xuan Jue gently snapped his fingers, and the surrounding environment changed drastically again.
It’s like all things are coming back to life, and like iron trees blooming...
When the surrounding environment stopped changing, an orange tree that looked to be nearly a hundred years old had grown under Xuan Jue's feet.
Moreover, at this time when the orange trees have not yet bloomed and bear fruit, the vertical branches of this century-old orange tree have actually produced huge oranges.
This terrifying ability to defy nature and reverse the laws of biological growth is Xuan Jue's "statement".
"My name is Xuan Jue, a great demon who controls the power of earth veins."
"As you can see, if I think about it, I am 'invincible' in this mountain forest."
Intentionally or unintentionally, he emphasized his own advantages. Xuan Jue believed that Pei Wende could understand his warning - the other party's ability was nothing in his eyes.
"But I'm not here to cause trouble for you this time."
"On the contrary, I'm here to help you."
Looking at Pei Wende who remained calm, Xuan Jue suddenly realized that both he and his superior seemed to have underestimated this seemingly inconspicuous mortal.
However, this has no impact on Xuan Jue. On the contrary, it is a very favorable condition.
Because no matter how you look at it, Pei Wende cannot be the kind of person who is willing to become ordinary.
Perhaps there is no need for me to interfere too much, and things will not develop as Your Majesty wishes.
"Some people don't want you to continue to control this power..."
"And I am just the opposite. The sooner you master this power, the more at ease I will be."
Hearing this, Pei Wende, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
"So...what happened in Weishan now has something to do with me, right?"
Although he had a questioning tone, in fact, Pei Wende had already confirmed his guess in his heart.
"That's true, if you mean the mandrill."
He didn't say that he had made the mandrill by himself. Xuan Jue jumped directly onto the branch of the orange tree with a slight leap.
"I originally showed up just to remind you..."
"But judging from the current situation, it seems that you don't need my reminder."
"But it's not my style to just return without success."
"So, I'd better give you another piece of free 'information' as a special treat!"
"This world is bigger than imagined. It's so big that old monk Lingyou can no longer protect you..."
"If you are unwilling to be reduced to a mortal, then join the ranks of practitioners as soon as possible!"
"For example, find the hidden mandrill right now instead of chasing the three civet cats around."
"After all, the 'Emperor's Liquid' that comes once every sixty years is about to appear."
"Once that mandrill is bathed in the 'Emperor Ooze', I'm afraid it may really take away your essence and transform into a real 'Earth Dragon'!"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"That mandrill... is still hiding in the village."
Having learned the whole story from the three civet cats, the young man in green murmured this after a brief silence.
"However, the moon is out."
Looking up at the rising full moon, the young man in green could clearly feel that the vitality nearby was becoming unusually active.
The young man in green who had bathed in the "Emperor's Liquid" sixty years ago knew that this was the day of practice that countless practitioners dreamed of - Gengshen Night.
——One cycle of reincarnation, the moonlight of Gengshen night, among which there is the emperor's liquid.
——It is shaped like countless olives, with thousands of golden threads running through them.
——Human plants and trees can become monsters by receiving their essence, and foxes and ghosts can display magical powers by eating them.
——The grass and trees have nature but not life, and the liquid has nature and can replenish life.
——Foxes, ghosts and ghosts have their own destiny, so eating them is of great benefit.
To put it simply, on the Gengshen Night on July 15th every sixty years, there is a special substance called "Emperor's Liquid" contained in the moonlight.
Eating the plants and trees that are short of life can replenish life, and eating the wild beasts in the mountains can enlighten the mind and wisdom.
And if you are a practitioner who has entered the path of cultivation, you can use this to improve your cultivation for a hundred or even a thousand years.
The young man in green didn't know whether the latter statement was true, but he knew that "Emperor's Liquid" could indeed make the vegetation and beasts in the mountains become spiritual.
Because the young man in green a decade ago had truly transformed into a big blue-scaled snake with the help of the power of "Emperor's Liquid".
"Is it because of these emperor fluids that you insist on staying here?"
Just like the young man in green was severely injured by the mandrill's Pure Yang True Fire, the mandrill was also seriously injured by the blue-scaled snake in that battle.
Moreover, the mandrill, who is of the wood nature, relies more on the essence of the sun and the moon than the boy in green, and is better at utilizing the essence of the sun and the moon.
Therefore, if the mandrill is really bathed in the moonlight full of "Emperor's Liquid", it may only be a matter of time before the mandrill recovers from his injuries.
