His breathing stopped suddenly. The sudden sting and discomfort caused Qingxizi to sink to the bottom of the water. It was difficult to breathe. A familiar dizziness swept through his body. He had no way to resist, so he could only grit his teeth and bear it. Her heart was burning and the wind was whistling in her ears. She seemed to see her helpless self, falling from the cliff of the snow-capped mountain into a bottomless valley, almost in despair.
One cannot step into the same river twice. This was the second time she fell off the cliff. Qingxizi's magic weapon was destroyed, and the lamp ran out of oil. She thought that fate would not be open again, but by various coincidences, not only did she After struggling to crawl out from the gate of hell, I got great benefits. The ancient zombie silkworm that saved her was extremely huge. It was buried under the snow-capped mountains. It woke up every hundred years, breathed in the wind and drank dew to replenish water, and also ate snow ginseng fruit and Cynomorium semen. When the ice and snow at the bottom of the valley rushed towards me, and I was about to fall to pieces in the next moment, a huge suction force came out of thin air and swallowed Qingxizi and the snow ginseng fruit into my belly.
The zombie has no teeth, so Qingxizi was sucked into its belly and rolled over involuntarily, falling to pieces. However, it saved her life and gave her a chance to breathe. Her heartbeat sounded in her ears, like a beating drum or rolling thunder. From time to time, a strong wind blew, and the ice and snow rolled into the storm. She was blown like a withered leaf, and fell into the depths of her abdomen in a daze. Her internal organs were turbulent and her injuries were aggravated. hurt. Qingxizi curled up her body, trying her best to protect some clarity in her heart, enduring the suffering, hoping that the disaster would pass soon.
I don’t know how long it took, the zombie settled down, its heartbeat gradually became lighter and lower, and fell into a deep sleep again. Everything was silent everywhere, except for the intermittent sound of water dripping. Qingxizi calmed down, his bones and muscles were soft, After lying down for a while, he struggled to get up carefully, took out a bright pearl from his pocket, and looked around in the dim light. The abdominal cavity of the silkworm is moist and breathable, stretching like a cave. Ice and snow are mixed with grass and fruits and piled up like a mountain. There is no danger for the time being. Qingxizi feels relieved and seizes the opportunity to regulate his breathing and recuperate. The snow ginseng fruit and Cynomorium seborrheum under the bottomless valley have medicinal power of more than a hundred years. Raw food is not inferior to the high-grade elixir refined by Lingxiao Temple. With this as a supplement, it will take ten or eight years to recover from the injury. Ninety percent, leaving no future trouble.
However, the belly of the zombie silkworm is not a safe place. Every once in a while, acid water will collect from all directions, like a rising tide. All the time was gone. Qingxizi noticed something was wrong at the first moment, and struggled to cling to the abdominal wall of the silkworm. The place where he landed was rough and wrinkled, and he slipped every step. He finally hid in a high place, held his breath, and escaped by chance. When the acid water receded, she slid down the abdominal wall, covered her mouth and nose for a brief inspection, and found that the herbs and fruits left behind were contaminated by the acid mist, withered and shriveled, and most of the medicinal power was lost. For this reason, she had to search around and race against time to collect them intact. The medicinal materials are put into the bag for safety.
The acidic water came and went, and Qingxizi was afraid to avoid it. However, as time passed, she was shocked to find that every time the acidic water rose up, it rose several feet higher than before. In other words, one day, the belly of the zombie would be filled with water. It will be filled with acidic water and there will be nowhere to hide. Qing Xizi guessed that the sour water was the gastric juice of zombie silkworms, which would corrode anything it touched, so she must not touch it. She didn't have much time left, so she had to come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible.
In the next few days, she adjusted her breathing and recovered from her injuries while thinking about countermeasures. She thought it was a difficult problem, but when she calmed down and thought about it, it was not impossible to think about. The abdominal cavity of the silkworm is the place where digestion takes place, so it is flooded with acidic water. You only need to move to the chest cavity and you will be fine. However, you cannot see your fingers from all around and it is difficult to identify the direction. If you accidentally move in the wrong direction, you will sink deeper and deeper into the acidic water. Being trapped, he threw himself into a desperate situation.
Qingxizi did not act rashly, regardless of wasting the power of the medicine, he swallowed the snow ginseng fruit and Cynomorium seborrheum one after another. He took the time to recuperate and avoided more than ten surges of acid water. He felt that it was not too late and could not delay any longer. He was about to choose a direction at will. Groping forward, she suddenly heard a faint heartbeat in the distance. It was too subtle to detect. If her injury hadn't improved slightly and she had sharp ears and eyes, she would have let it go. She followed the direction of her heartbeat, collecting intact grass and fruits along the way, and endured several surges of acidic water. She heard the second weak heartbeat, which was much clearer this time. Qingxizi confirmed it was correct and felt relieved. It seemed that she was not going in the wrong direction, and there was finally a glimmer of life ahead.
After a long journey, the sour water gradually became lower and shallower, and the heartbeat became louder and louder. Yun Shu stood on Qingxizi's side, not far from the silkworm's chest, and she was temporarily out of trouble. However, Qing Xizi did not act rashly. The heart was the vital point of the zombie. If she accidentally woke it up, it would inevitably cause trouble. Instead of getting close, she hid far away and found a safe place to stay. Without the trouble of acidic water, Qingxizi was able to recover from her injuries in peace. It was an experience that she would never forget. She was alone in the darkness, eating snow ginseng fruit and Cymbidium sibiricum, and listening to her heartbeat that had been beating for a long time. , ask yourself, it feels like a world away.
I don't know how long it took, but the injury healed unexpectedly. Qingxizi continued to practice without thinking, letting the years, like running water, drown her body and mind. Although the world is big, there is no place that is more stable than the belly of a silkworm. Qingxizi reflects on what he has learned in his life, from the inheritance of the ancient monks in the water cave to the mantle and mantle given by Shen Tangzi at Lingxiao Temple, and various magical methods. , I have honed myself to the extreme one by one, and I don’t feel lonely or unbearable.
It is not a retreat, but it is better than a retreat. Hundreds of years have passed by suddenly, and the heartbeat of the zombies has gradually accelerated. After a few days, it has become more intense, and the thumping sound is deafening. Qingxizi knew that the silkworm was about to wake up from its deep sleep. She breathed the wind, drank the dew, and ate for a while. Her injuries healed, and her path was getting better and better. She was already prepared, and when the silkworm opened its mouth, she would The moment he sucked it in but didn't inhale it, he slipped out of its body and twisted around to hide under its jaws to avoid being sucked back into its belly.
The ancient zombie silkworm shook the mountains with one breath, and a blizzard rolled up in the bottomless valley. Qingxizi witnessed this earth-shattering scene, and his mind was lost. He felt deeply that his body was fuzzy, and his heart towards the Tao became more and more determined. . After the silkworm had eaten and drank enough, it retreated into the mountain and fell into a deep sleep. Qingxizi left the hiding place and searched at the bottom of the valley. He found some leftover grass and fruits, and then went around in circles to find a way out of the bottomless place. valley.
…
The one who fell into the deep valley and left safely was the Qingxizi of the past. Now she is being ravaged by Shen Yuanqiong in every possible way, playing with her like a doll. She is so clear-headed, and her body's reactions are coming one after another. She can only try to remember it. past, as a way to offset shame and despair.
After leaving the Daxue Ridge, Qingxizi returned to the Central Plains through mountains and rivers, beheaded a hundred-eyed demon outside the Demon City, and walked away. However, he did not expect that the hundred-eyed demon was the beloved son of the city lord Tie Qiong, and disaster fell from the sky. Come to an unexpected chase. Qingxizi fought and retreated, fleeing all the way to southern Xinjiang. He fought in more than a hundred battles, big and small. Like a sharp sword, it has been tempered for many times, and its edge has been revealed. His reputation has also grown, attracting the attention of human monks, who secretly provide him with help.
Stepping into the southern borderland, the terrain was dangerous and miasma filled the air. The monsters were beyond their reach. They gradually lost track of the people, and Qingxizi was able to take a breath and take some repairs. She deeply felt that she lacked sharp weapons at hand, and she was often helpless during the battle. She happened to hear an unreliable news, saying that there was a faint sound of thunder rolling in the Huolian Cave in southern Xinjiang, and the roar of dragons and tigers could be heard from time to time. When the treasure was born, I couldn't help but be moved by it. I refined the demon elixir of the hundred-eyed demon, used the demon's energy to confuse the energy, changed my appearance, disguised myself as a demon and sneaked into the cave to seek opportunities.
The various forces in the Huolian Cave collided and fought fiercely. Qingxizi took chestnuts from the fire and seized the treasure of the Thunder Fire Sword. He killed the city lord Tie Qiong and reunited him with the father and son of Baimu Yao. Then he sealed the Huolian Cave and triggered the underground This sword was refined through thunder and fire sacrifice. Twenty years later, the work was completed. Qingxizi broke through the barrier and broke out with high spirits. He defeated more than ten demon cities in a row, sacrificed his blood to the Thunder Fire Sword, and went all the way north without stopping until he reached the Daxue Ridge in the far north. He washed the Lingxiao Temple with blood and captured it for thousands of years. The storage was wiped out.
The great revenge was avenged and his mind was clear. Qingxizi had no worries anymore and sneaked straight into the bottomless valley. He raised the Thunder Fire Sword and fought fiercely with the zombie silkworm for seven days and seven nights, killing the giant creature with his sword. When she was about to die, Zombie Silkworm forced all her vitality into the demon pill and escaped with her soul. She was struck by thunder and fire, and her soul flew away. The demon pill fell into the hands of Qing Xizi, which became a great help for her in her cultivation.
Qingxizi practiced in seclusion under the bottomless valley. She ate snow ginseng fruit and Cynomorium cyprinidii, and used the silkworm demon pill to transform the medicinal power to replenish her body. The shadow of the Tao sword, the opposing shadows become three, doubling the killing power, which is unmatched by any human monk in the world. The grass and fruits in the bottomless valley had been exhausted. Qingxizi had no intention of just sitting there and waiting for a hundred years. She floated away with her thunder and fire sword.
From that moment on, the demon clan felt great pressure. Qingxizi emerged from the sky and attacked the demon cities in the north one after another with a cannibalizing force. He sacrificed his blood to the Thunder Fire Sword, used war to support war, and used killing to stop killing. The demon monks finally joined forces and set up a dragnet to kill the enemy. However, Qingxizi acted cautiously and used his thunder-fire sword to kill without equal. He always beat the demon cultivators one step ahead, washed the demon city with blood, and walked away before the snare could be closed.
This was a long battle, a battle in which one man and one sword fought against all the demon clans. The human monks who had fled to the dangerous places in the border areas did not help much. They could only inform Qingxizi and wait for an opportunity to offer some pills. They don't have the confidence to fight back, nor the courage to make a desperate move. The demon clan finally couldn't bear the loss of bloodline. With the tacit approval of the clan leader, some clever city lords made peace with Qingxizi in private, promising to be lenient to the human clan and offering annual tribute in exchange for a peaceful coexistence.
To attack, divide, and give the human race a chance to breathe, this is Qingxizi's long-term plan. She agreed to the other party's conditions and established a thin and fragile buffer zone in the north. In those demon cities that negotiated peace, the treatment of the human race may be different. There have been some improvements, and savages have been excluded from the list of prey for the "Spring Hunting". They can hunt and feed outside the demon city without worrying about the demon city's deliberate suppression. With this buffer zone, Qingxizi also stopped her invasion. She returned to Daxueling, established a sect in the Bottomless Valley, recruited disciples, gradually accumulated strength and expanded her power, and the annual tribute from the Demon City continued to be sent in. In the bottomless valley, the power of the human race and demon race is changing quietly.
People's thoughts are not static. At first, Qingxizi only thought about his grudges and attacked the demon city to kill the demon cultivators to avenge his biological mother. After killing too many people and becoming numb, he realized that the demon clan had multiplied in large numbers and could not be killed anymore. There are many good players emerging one after another, and there are also several powerful ancestors who are stationed in the Holy Land. With her own strength, she will reach a dead end sooner or later, which is why the subsequent changes took place.
At the beginning, she had to do everything by herself, but after the first period of time, her disciples gradually became able to take charge of their own affairs, and with them running for her, everything in the Bottomless Valley was in order. She was able to stay away from worldly affairs, concentrate on practice, and continue to worship. Refining the thunder and fire sword. However, the tree was about to be quiet but the wind was not stopping, and the demon clan was about to move. It happened to be the birthday of the ancestor Huli, and a letter was sent to the bottomless valley, asking Qingxizi to go to Heifeng Mountain to watch the ceremony. This is an unabashed temptation. If Qing Xizi finds an excuse to refuse, then the next temptation will definitely be that Demon City breaks the peace agreement and then fights with each other.
That year, Qing Xizi came to Black Wind Mountain alone with a single sword, and sat down with Patriarch Huli to discuss Taoism. With one strike of Thunder Fire Sword and six shadows, he subdued the demons and everyone was shocked. The demon clan was restless, and more than ten demon cities in the north bowed their heads to Qingxizi one after another, taking the initiative to submit. The bottomless valley became famous all over the world, and prospered, becoming a banner for human monks.
The human race rises against the trend, and the decline of the monster race will become a foregone conclusion. Just when the public sentiment is exciting and the storm is surging, the beautiful python, a demon cultivator from heaven, comes to this world on the order of the emperor of heaven, and leads Qingxizi to ascend. The incident happened suddenly, unprepared, and the beautiful python was pressing closer. Qingxizi had no time to think carefully. She vaguely felt that this world was the hometown of demon cultivators, and the heaven did not want to change the situation. If she let go, the human race would repeat the same mistakes, and everything would return to its original state. initial. However, her arms couldn't twist her thighs. The beauty python had vast magical powers and unfathomable Taoism. She thought she was no match for her. Instead of fighting her face to face, it would be better to go to heaven and adapt to the situation. She would make plans after she has mastered the practice.
Qingxizi took the key step to ascend to heaven and became a pawn under the Emperor Zhao Hu. The beauty of the demon cultivator pulled out the fuel from the bottom of the cauldron and calmly resolved a disaster. Without Qingxizi sitting in the bottomless valley, the Beidi Demon City quickly made secret arrangements and joined forces with the Northern Expedition under the instruction of Patriarch Huli. In the ice and snow, After several years of bloody battles, the nail in the bottomless valley was finally removed. The foundation laid by Qingxizi was in vain, the demon clan came back and intensified, and the human race fell into the nineteenth level of hell. Under intentional or unintentional misdirection, they criticized Qingxizi with words and writings, and their hatred was as endless as a torrential river. If she hadn't ascended to heaven and abandoned this world for the sake of immortality, how could they have ended up in such a tragic end!
This is the human heart, this is human nature. From then on, no one is grateful to Qingxizi. The more miserable the human race's experience, the stronger their hatred for Qingxizi, piling up into mountains and flooding into the sea. Qingxizi felt all this in the heaven, and her heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave. She never intervened in the disputes in the lower world again, even if she turned the void into reality and refined the twenty-one thunder and fire swords, even if she was highly valued by the Emperor of Heaven, her position Lie Xiaoxiang, the demon clan unites to protect the place of their birth is certainly one of the reasons, but more importantly, they are not worth it!
