"Well, I won't go back now."
Yan Yun nodded. Since he understood, she didn't say much.
"Junior sister, am I really not dreaming? Why don't you slap me?"
Jiang Qinghe still didn't believe it. He really felt that he was dreaming, but he hugged his junior sister for real, not as illusory as in the dream.
"……Really?"
She hesitated.
"Really, I'm afraid that you will disappear all of a sudden like in the dream..."
"Okay, that's what you said."
Yan Yun looked at the persistence in his eyes that didn't seem to be fake, and silently raised his hand.
"Snapped--"
A crisp slap sounded, and the people in front of me broke into tears and laughed. "Wow, you're really back. I'm so happy. Why did you push me away at that time? I'm your senior brother. I should protect you..."
Jiang Qinghe cried again after laughing. He was only in pain for more than half a month because he was burned by the demonic energy, not to mention that his junior sister basically withstood the full blow.
Thinking of this, he turned her around, as if to see if there was anything wrong with her or if she felt uncomfortable in any way.
"I'm fine now, senior brother, don't worry."
She patted his hand and comforted him, but she really didn't feel the pain at that moment because her whole body was numb and unconscious.
Jiang Qinghe looked at her helplessly and sadly, always lying to him.
"Where's spring? Did you bring it?"
"It was in the sect. After you fell into the endless abyss, it didn't eat or drink for several days. I lied to it that you had traveled far away, and then it came back to life."
"It's grown so big now, and it's fat and white since I raised it! And it still loves to sleep as before, but it's always looking for you."
Jiang Qinghe pulled her and started beeping. After the depression between his brows dissipated, he regained some of his former liveliness.
"I will bring it out to show you then, but not so soon. I have to go to the secret place under the sea."
"呲呲呲……"
Seeing that she was still moving, the furry mouse bit her cuff anxiously.
"Senior brother, it's taking me to a place. Do you want to come with me? I still want to go back first. It's not too early now."
She touched the hairy mouse's head and told it to take it easy. She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Qinghe, "But why didn't you go back so late?"
"I'll go, I'll go. If I had gone back earlier, I wouldn't have met you today."
He was glad that he was not in such a hurry to go back, but it was also because he saw a figure that looked very similar to Yan Yun in the underground city today, which made him a little uneasy and depressed, so he wanted to walk to relax.
Now that I think about it, that person is indeed Yan Yun, "Junior sister, how did you come back? There is an endless abyss there."
He walked beside her, curious.
He only knew a little about the Endless Abyss. He only knew that it was extremely dangerous and very few people could escape from it.
"With the help of noble people, we will come out."
She thought for a moment and erased the sadness with an understatement.
Only then did Jiang Qinghe realize that she was already a foundation-building practitioner.
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but also happy for her. It was not easy to get this opportunity, and I don't know how much the junior sister has suffered.
They reached the end of the road, which was a dead end.
The furry mouse plopped down, wagging its tail at them, and then jumped into a hole at the foot of the wall.
Yan Yun squatted down, supported his chin with his hands, and looked down at it to see what it wanted to do.
A furry little head poked out, its wet eyes blinking, and soon another one poked its head out, two, three, four, five. Crowding the small hole.
"呲呲呲"
The furry mouse that brought Yan Yun over struggled to squeeze out, holding a furry mouse cub in its mouth.
It rubbed her leg flatteringly and then placed the cub on the ground.
Yan Yun gently picked up the cub, and looking at its sick appearance, it became clear that he wanted her to save it.
The blue spiritual power converged from her fingertips, emitting a soft light in the night.
"Junior sister, why is your spiritual power blue?"
Jiang Qinghe squatted next to her, his eyes widened slightly, and there was a faint coldness hidden in them.
"I accidentally fell into the ice field, and this is what happened when I came out."
She vaguely told him the truth.
An ice flame is her trump card, and of course she has to hide her trump card.
Secondly, I am afraid that someone who is interested will find out about it and take it away by force.
The furry mouse was also squatting on the side, looking at the cub in her hand with her big eyes motionless, a little anxious and uneasy.
Soon, she withdrew her spiritual power and placed the mostly recovered cub back in front of the furry mouse.
This should be a place where people nearby throw away garbage, so there will be a stench coming from time to time, and they live and hide in this small world, fearing every day in order to survive.
The furry mouse hugged the cub that opened its eyes and regained its energy, jumped up and called the other children to come out, and happily jumped around Yan Yun.
"Are you stealing to feed them?"
Yanyun sat directly on the snow. They were afraid of her, but wanted to get close to her.
The big furry rat, the one that brought her here, nodded. If the demon world was not under the control of the human world, they would live on the prairie, not in the dark corners.
"Senior brother, can you get me a letter of introduction?"
She stood up, patted the snow on her body, and turned back to him.
"Is it a letter of introduction to the secret place under the sea?"
Jiang Qinghe didn't understand it at first, but he quickly realized it.
The secret realm under the sea is controlled by various sects. The reason why it is controlled is because there will be a formation before the secret realm is opened, and all powerful people need to work together to break the formation.
Since the sect has done its best, it will naturally not let casual cultivators without any contribution enter to rob the resources of its disciples. Therefore, if the casual cultivators want to enter, they need a letter of introduction from the sect.
"Uh-huh."
The little girl nodded slightly.
"Okay, then I'll bring it to you then, don't worry!"
He quickly agreed and reluctantly said goodbye to her.
After they parted, she walked straight towards the inn.
After getting the letter of introduction, she was equivalent to temporarily becoming a disciple of the Changle Sect.
The underwater secret realm is not just a secret realm. According to her, it is equivalent to a copy of the game.
It has three levels in total, and the difficulty increases step by step.
Foundation building is just a stepping stone. After entering the secret realm, they will have a scoring stone in their hand and can see a points ranking list, which will show which sect you are and how many points you have obtained.
There is only one way to add points, which is to obtain treasures, which are good things.
Of course, the way to obtain treasures is uncertain, which means you can steal other people's treasures. This is the role of the ranking list.
Only by accumulating 100 points within three days can you continue to enter the second level of the underwater secret realm.
If you do not accumulate 100 points, you will be kicked out of the underwater secret realm.
For the second level, you need to accumulate one thousand points within a month to enter the third level.
After clearing the third level, you can enter the legendary fourth level of the underwater secret realm.
One is because the threshold for entering the fourth level is 10,000 points.
Second, the rules are also different from the other three levels.
The fourth level is called Asking the Heart. If you fail to pass the test of the secret realm, you will be emptied of all treasures and kicked out of the underwater secret realm.
Therefore, many people leave directly when they get to the third level. Even if they have enough points, they do not choose to enter the fourth level, so as not to get nothing.
As for what Wen Xin was asking, she didn't know.
"Host, considering the current situation, not recognizing each other is actually the best choice."
Duocai felt like he couldn't understand her sometimes.
Is it for a letter of introduction? With her ability, she could get the letter of introduction in many ways, so why should she go to Jiang Qinghe?
"I have my own plans."
She understood what it said, but that was only the first step.
She wants to stand upright in front of everyone with her own face and her own name.
Instead of being like those furry rats, hiding in dark corners and surviving.
"I don't understand, but just don't kill yourself. You can go to the secret seabed with peace of mind. This system will ensure that you come back with a full load!"
Duocai ignored her and said proudly.
"good."
Under the snowy sky, her thin figure is lonely.
But now, she had to find a way to resolve the contract with Lian Heng.
She did not go back to the inn directly, but silently found a place to sit down, holding her chin and thinking.
After a long time, she stood up, with a rough idea in her mind, and then slowly returned to the inn.
Then try this method!
"Lian Heng, come here."
She opened the door and called out Lian Heng, who was settling accounts with Lu Lixue.
He followed her to a blank snowfield without knowing why.
It's very remote here and not many people pass by.
"Give me your hand."
Yan Yun stretched out her hand towards him and spoke calmly.
Their hands were folded, and she calmed down, feeling the energy in his body like the essence of heaven and earth.
Since coexistence is not possible, then blend in.
Yan Yun suddenly retracted her hand, but there was still residual warmth in her hand. She raised her hand and faced the sky with her palm upward. In the world that Lian Heng couldn't see, her eyes were filled with the colorful energy of the five elements.
They merged into her hands one by one, flowed into her body, and then came out of her body and flowed back into all things in this time, coexisting in harmony.
However, the Lian Heng in front of her was not like this. In his body, there was a gray air, and the energy of the five elements could not enter, as if something was blocking them.
This is because the contract is there and he can still maintain a certain balance, but what if there is no contract?
She put her hands down and the breath suddenly stopped.
"Give me a drop of blood."
"Why you……"
Lian Heng felt uneasy in his heart. Do you want to terminate the contract with him? But he didn't ask any more questions and just gave her a drop of blood.
She wanted to try if she could make him make a contract with this world.
Yan Yun untied the contract between the two, and then his black hair began to turn white inch by inch.
This time the Qi of the Five Elements entered his body, but it started fighting with his Qi...
"Don't worry, I'll take a look again."
She gave him a reassuring look. Since the energy of all things is mutually reinforcing and harmonious, why couldn't it be the one in the Endless Abyss?
Yan Yun held his hand and used his spiritual power to slow down the speed of his dissipation. Soon, she discovered something was different.
Lian Heng's nature is wood, so she first injected him with water aura, and water produces wood.
But his hair turned gray faster in the next second.
She quickly withdrew and injected the wood spirit energy again, and now his body gradually became transparent.
If Yan Yun doesn’t give up, then she will try something else! According to the law of mutual generation of the five elements, she carefully transformed wood into fire aura. She failed many times in this process.
The moment the fire spirit energy was injected into Lian Heng's body, a different change happened.
Fire overcomes wood, and the gray spiritual energy is instantly swallowed up by it, and then the layer of gray matter fades away and turns into the dark green wood spiritual energy. Following the energy of the five elements in the world, it merges into all things to achieve a balance of symbiosis and integration.
Yan Yun's eyes lit up when she noticed this change. She understood, so absorbing auras of the same attribute would aggravate the dusty aura, making it more difficult to achieve a symbiotic balance between them.
But if you absorb spiritual energy with mutually restraining properties, this layer of gray matter will be reduced.
For example, if he is a fire person, then she can use wood spirit energy to reduce this layer of gray matter.
So this layer of gray matter was created to protect these creatures living in the endless abyss. What about the meridians in his body?
When she checked with her consciousness, sure enough, his meridians were covered with this layer of gray matter.
He cannot transform, so he can only passively absorb the wood spiritual energy, which in turn accelerates his own death.
She looked at Lian Heng and was surprised to find that the ends of his hair were showing signs of darkening.
It wasn't until midnight that she cleaned out all the gray matter in his meridians, and the speed at which she transformed spiritual power became faster and faster.
"you're free."
she said at last.
Lian Heng's white hair returned to jet black. He raised his hand and watched in disbelief as the gray matter in his body's meridians was removed.
He used to be in pain whenever he absorbed the wood spirit energy, but not now!
"I can practice again, thank you Xiao Hu."
"You're welcome. You can go wherever you want from now on."
There was not much spiritual energy left in Yan Yun's body, and she was a little tired, but after solving the problem at hand, she felt relaxed.
During the process, she discovered that after the gray matter was stripped from the meridians, if it came into contact with the water spiritual energy, it would quickly transform into wood spiritual energy.
She suspected that there was material from the five elements in the endless abyss.
"Thank you, Xiaohu."
A wisp of dark green, spiraling spiritual body gradually emerged from Lian Heng's hand, "This is the blessing of our flower demon. It can only be given to one person in a lifetime. Now, I will give it to you."
There was a soft brilliance between his brows, like the most beautiful warm jade in the world. His peach blossom eyes were narrow and he looked at her with gentle and sincere eyes.
"Actually, my name is not Xiaohu."
Her voice was also gentle and pleasant, and she shook her head at him, "You can leave this to the person you want to give it to. Lian Yu helped me, and I should help you."
"I know, but I have to call you that, and I didn't give it to you because you helped me!"
Lian Heng looked at her angrily, she must be the person in the world who has rejected him the most times!
He was so beautiful, how could she bear it?
"I gave it to you because I like you."
"ah?!"
"It's because of your friends' liking, right?"
She asked quickly after her panic had passed.
"Of course, I am the only one worthy of myself in this world, isn't it? What are you afraid of?"
He looked at her inexplicably, "Wait!" Could it be that she was afraid that he would like her? Thinking about it this way, she seemed to be even more angry.
