Chapter 309: Sudden Arrival (5000 words)
Seeing that the other party's faith in Taoism had collapsed, Ye Liuyun felt a toothache on his face.
"Damn, it's just a loss of a game? You can't accept this? If it weren't for my unconventional approach and my immortal body, you would have won 100%. But there's nothing I can do. I'm a cheat. Anyone who meets me will be unlucky." Ye Liuyun laughed in his heart.
However, Ye Liuyun is not the kind of person who likes to rub salt into other people's wounds. On the contrary, she is an alchemist. A doctor is like a loving parent. She definitely cannot bear to see the other party suffer from a mental illness because of losing to her.
A cultivator's mental illness has always been the biggest obstacle on the road to cultivation.
So Ye Liuyun planned to give this guy a shot of adrenaline.
"Hehe, Senior Brother Yang, you actually haven't lost. There's no need to worry too much about it. You have to understand that I, your junior sister, practice body cultivation, and you know nothing about physical cultivation. It's inevitable that you'll be a step behind. If I were a magic practitioner, I would definitely not be able to last more than a few rounds at your hands." Ye Liuyun said.
This sentence seemed to be understated, but when it fell into Yang Suifeng's ears, it was like a good medicine, which dissolved some of the depression in his heart and immediately stopped his mentality that was about to collapse.
Because after calming down and thinking carefully, it was true. Gu Hongyue lost, which proved the power of physical cultivators. Or, in other words, he didn't know how to deal with physical cultivators at all. If he knew the abilities of physical cultivators, he would definitely not have fallen for Ye Liuyun's weird long-range attack.
In fact, when people are depressed and collapsed, they need others to give them a reason to save face, and Ye Liuyun gave him this reason.
Ye Liuyun had no grudge against him, but he didn't want to offend anyone because of a game.
"This? That's true. I was too worried about it. Thank you, Junior Sister Ye, for the reminder. In that case, I hope we can have a chance to compete again." Yang Suifeng took a deep breath, then bowed to Ye Liuyun, and finally left with his injured body.
Ye Liuyun also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party had figured it out.
It often doesn't take much hatred for a person to feel ill will towards another person. As long as what you do makes the other person unhappy, then the other person will not have a good impression of you. If they don't have a good impression of you, then they will definitely be very unhappy, and then it will gradually turn into dislike and disgust.
"Oh, this little girl is quite interesting. With just one sentence, she settled Yang Suifeng's mentality. Oh! Losing is not scary. What's scary is that you obviously lost but don't think about how you lost. Sometimes losing is a good thing. However, the body refining method that Ye Liuyu practices must be extraordinary." While Fang Mingyu showed an admiring expression, he was also thinking about the method Ye Liuyun practiced.
No one objected, because when you are not a genius with invincible faith, failure is the mother of success.
But if you clearly have the ability to easily defeat the opponent, but fail because of your arrogance, then your so-called failure is a joke.
After seeing Yang Suifeng leave, Ye Liuyun also wanted to leave. However, when she left, she deliberately acted very uncomfortable and signaled to Lin Aoxue on the podium.
Lin Aoxue, who was on the high platform, saw Ye Liuyun's eyes, reached out her hand expressionlessly, and used her magic power to pull Ye Liuyun from the bottom of the platform to the high platform.
As soon as Ye Liuyun landed on the ground, he immediately fell onto Lin Aoxue, looking very weak.
"Oh! Aoxue, I'm so tired. Let me lie on you and rest for a while." Ye Liuyun secretly glanced at the eyes of the disciples on the stage, and then quickly pretended to faint.
Lin Aoxue rolled her eyes secretly, but still cooperated with Ye Liuyun and continued acting.
"This guy is so dramatic. If he were on Earth, he would definitely win the Best Actor award." Lin Aoxue muttered in his heart.
"Hey? Junior Sister Lin, what happened to Junior Sister Ye? Are you hurt?" Han Yao and the others originally wanted to congratulate Ye Liuyun, but unexpectedly, Ye Liuyun fainted as soon as he came back.
Ye Liuyun pretended to be unconscious on purpose to shut them up and prevent a group of women from surrounding her and asking her questions.
"Oh, it's nothing. She just consumed too much energy and suffered some injuries. She fainted. I'll take her back to rest first." Lin Aoxue said a few words seriously, then left holding Ye Liuyun.
Anyway, Ye Liuyun has already entered the finals. As for what kind of opponents he will meet in the future, he will just leave it to fate.
Everyone watched Lin Aoxue carrying Ye Liuyun and flying away. Many people in Caiyun Peak seemed very disappointed, but since they were seriously injured, it was reasonable for them to go back and rest. After all, there would be the finals after the promotion round, so the injured disciples basically had no intention of watching the game here.
They all went back to heal their wounds. Some cultivators had used the power of the Taoist Palace, causing certain damages. They also needed to go back to repair the Taoist Palace. Even if they could not go to the Nanling event, they could not ruin their future.
After Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue returned to Bixia Valley, Ye Liuyun opened his eyes and laughed.
"I'm dying of laughter. Acting is so tiring. It would be great if one day I didn't have to hide my immortality at all." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Lin Aoxue rolled her eyes.
"You have a good idea. Immortality is the ideal of many cultivators, and you have obtained it easily. Let me tell you, unless you have invincible power, if you reveal the secret of your immortality, I bet you will be like Tang Monk in Journey to the West. All kinds of demons and monsters will want to eat a few bites of your flesh." Lin Aoxue taught.
Ye Liuyun could certainly understand this principle. Immortality is such a wonderful thing. The purpose of practitioners' cultivation is to transcend the cycle of reincarnation and achieve immortality.
If he could achieve immortality by eating a piece of her flesh, Ye Liuyun dared to say that he would be hunted down and captured endlessly by the cultivators of this world.
What is certain at the moment is that immortality may mean that one can avoid death, but that doesn’t mean there is no way to deal with it. After all, Fan Ling beside her is the best example.
During this period, Fan Ling was basically an idle person, playing with animals every day out of boredom. There was nothing she could do. Her power was sealed tightly. What else could she do? She had lost most of her thoughts. She either slept or played every day. She was bored.
"Okay, you stay here by yourself. I have to go back. This qualifying round will probably take a few days to finish. You'd better take advantage of the time to figure out some new skills. The finals later will only be more intense." Lin Aoxue said.
After saying that, Lin Aoxue flew up and returned to Lundao Peak.
When Ye Liuyun saw Lin Aoxue flying away, he quickly ran to the lake to wash his face. After all, he had just pretended to be embarrassed, so his whole body was a mess and he had not tidied himself up.
After Ye Liuyun washed his face, he raised his head slightly and looked at Sun Yuan on the spiritual peach tree opposite.
But when Sun Yuan saw Ye Liuyun looking at him, he immediately spoke.
"Don't look down on me, Old Sun. I have taught you everything I can at the moment. To tell you the truth, the Nine Revolutions Magical Ability is my strongest weapon, and I am not stingy at all."
When Ye Liuyun heard Sun Yuan say this, he immediately sighed helplessly, then fell directly to the grass, closed his eyes and thought, summarizing today's battle.
Every time she reveals a little bit of her skills, it means that the next time she fights with someone, she will definitely be on guard and it will not be so easy to succeed.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Let me get some sleep. Maybe when I wake up, I can think of some new methods." Ye Liuyun murmured.
She falls asleep with her head tilted, and I can only say that her sleep quality is really good.
At the same time, looking at the Yunhai Mountains, I saw an enchanting woman in a red dress appearing somewhere on the edge of Yunzong's Tianshi.
"It's been so many years, I never thought that I could come back here again." The woman said with a look of nostalgia at the invisible barrier in front of her.
Just as the woman was strolling in this area, she happened to run into a large group of wandering cultivators who came to the Yunhai Mountains to train.
There are still several public training areas in the Yunhai Mountains, which are not under the jurisdiction of the Yun Sect. If the Yun Sect eats meat, they must leave some soup for other cultivators to drink, otherwise it will easily incur public anger.
"Hey? Boss, look, there's a young lady in front." A wretched middle-aged man among the group of casual cultivators suddenly spoke up.
As soon as these words came out, the big man in the lead quickly signaled the others to stop. They immediately found a place and began to observe secretly.
The woman was wearing a tight-fitting dress, her waist looked as slender as a snake, and her back was as beautiful as a fairy.
"Strange, isn't she a cultivator? Why can't we feel any power fluctuation from her?" Everyone was a little surprised.
The woman in red had already noticed the moment the group of people appeared behind her.
She pursed her rosy lips and smiled, but this smile gave people an inexplicable chill.
Then, as if she was unaware that someone was behind her, she continued to walk along the edge of the sky.
Maybe it was because this woman's temperament was so attractive that the moment these casual cultivators saw each other, they were like crazy and their eyes involuntarily followed her.
"She's so beautiful, boss. Let's, let's have her." Someone couldn't resist the temptation of this woman and gestured to their boss.
After a moment of hesitation, the boss finally couldn't suppress the restlessness in his heart.
"Let's go and take a look." The big man said, and then followed.
The woman in red strolled leisurely in the garden, as if she had returned to her own home, feeling very comfortable.
She soon appeared at a pond at the edge of the sky. The pond was inconspicuous, with a diameter of only about one meter. The surface was covered with a large amount of algae and was surrounded by thick weeds and shrubs.
After she came here, her eyes were fixed on the small pond.
But just as she stayed here, in a daze, the group of people who had been following her finally took action.
"Hehehe... Hey, young lady, how come you are here in such a remote place? Are you lost? If you are lost, you will be embarrassed. Why don't you follow us, brother? We will take you out."
As soon as this group of people appeared, they surrounded the woman in the red dress.
When the woman in the red dress heard this, she immediately turned around, revealing a charming and enchanting face like that of an evil spirit.
"Hehe, I'm not lost. I just went home. But you, I'm afraid you can't go home." The woman said with a weird smile.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. The next moment, they all seemed to be in a trance and suddenly realized that something was wrong. They saw that a strange red light was emanating from the woman's body, and this red light was connected to their bodies.
Suddenly someone exclaimed.
"Boss, your body, ah, what happened to you guys?" A casual cultivator reacted and looked at the people around him.
But this sight almost scared him to death, as his companions, who had been fine just now, had turned into mummies without him noticing.
And it's a living mummy.
After this person said this, the rest of the people reacted and looked at each other. When they looked, they saw the most terrifying scene in their lives.
They saw each other's bodies shrivel and rot at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they themselves didn't feel anything at all.
If you look more closely, you can see that there is a large amount of milky white energy on their bodies flying towards the woman.
The woman seemed to be draining the life force from them.
"This? What happened?" These people all looked confused.
“Sleep forever in happiness.” The woman looked at these people, with scarlet evil light flashing in her eyes. Finally, under her gaze, all the people turned into white bones and fell to the ground.
They died without any pain, and their souls left their bodies one after another, following the red light released by the woman, and flew into the woman's body, becoming her nourishment.
These people can only be said to be unlucky. The moment they saw the woman in red, they were destined to die.
Because they had already been locked onto the power of the woman, their life essence had already flowed towards her from the moment they saw her, but they were completely unaware of it.
"Ah... Master, you once told me that human soul and life are both the best supplement for demon cultivators and the key to falling into evil. It is very difficult for demons that have eaten humans to walk the right path again. Don't blame me, blame you for being too weak." The woman sighed as she looked at the corpses.
After saying this, the woman's body suddenly turned into a small red snake and dived directly into the pool.
Looking closely, this seems to be the snake demon that appeared in Jianglin City last time.
Unexpectedly, after the battle with Li Bai, she did not leave Jiangzhou Prefecture, but ran to the Yunhai Mountains.
This pond is inconspicuous and most people can hardly find it, but this woman seems to be very familiar with this place.
She kept moving forward along the narrow passage.
"Strange, it seems like someone else has been here before, this shouldn't be possible?" The snake demon shuttled back and forth for a while and found traces of someone having been here, with obvious signs of sharp blades cutting and expanding all around.
The snake demon moved very quickly, and this place turned out to be a passage, a passage that could cross the sky.
The Tianshi is not completely unbreakable, it also has flaws, but these flaws are very hidden and cannot be discovered by ordinary people. No one in the Yun Sect knows that there is such a passage leading to the inside.
Looking at Ye Liuyun, she was still sleeping peacefully and didn't notice anything at all. However, what she didn't know was that a huge danger was approaching her.
"Eh? This breath?" Ye Liuyun couldn't detect it, but Lin Qingyou could. She woke Ye Liuyun up immediately.
"Little guy, don't sleep anymore, wake up, there's trouble coming." Lin Qingyou shouted.
After hearing this shout, Ye Liuyun suddenly opened his eyes.
"Trouble? Where?" Ye Liuyun asked slightly panicked.
The ape in the tree seemed to have noticed something and immediately turned his attention to the lake.
"It's too late. It's the snake demon that appeared in Jianglin City last time. She actually knew the loophole in Yunzong's natural power, and she came in through the loophole." Lin Qingyou reminded immediately.
Ye Liuyun's expression froze. She remembered that Fan Ling and Lan Wei also came in from a passage under the lake.
Fan Ling told her that they discovered the passage, then expanded it and then followed the underground river to break through the obstruction of the sky and drill in.
But in fact, they were just a blind cat catching a dead mouse, and Peng Qiang simply discovered a loophole in Yun Zong's natural power.
"What? That snake demon from the mysterious realm of transformation, what should we do? Run away." Ye Liuyun said and ran away.
But Lin Qingyou shook her head.
"It's too late. She's already here."
As expected, as Lin Qingyou finished speaking, an invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire Bixia Valley. Under the influence of this pressure, the space of Bixia Valley was almost frozen.
Then, under Ye Liuyun's panicked gaze, a small blood-red snake crawled out of the lake, swam to the shore, and then turned into a human form and appeared in Ye Liuyun's sight.
It’s a pity that she couldn’t move now and could only watch the other party appear.
"Haha, that's interesting. I didn't expect that you live here. It seems that we are really destined to meet." After the snake demon appeared, he took a look at the surrounding environment, then looked at Ye Liuyun with a smile.
Ye Liuyun knew that the other party was very strong and there was absolutely no way she could fight him now. Lin Qingyou had no other choice. The moment this guy appeared, Lin Qingyou hid.
"Just wish you good luck, little girl. Try to deal with her first. If you can't handle her, just activate the Lanwei Sword." This was the last sentence that Lin Qingyou hid.
It’s not that Lin Qingyou wants to hide, but with her current soul power, there is no way she can do anything to this guy unless she takes the risk of exhausting all the remaining soul power.
The snake demon appeared in front of Ye Liuyun with a graceful figure. It first stretched out its hand to hold Ye Liuyun's chin, and then sniffed the scent of Ye Liuyun from a close distance.
"Ah... what a unique smell. Unfortunately, she is not the person I am looking for. Little girl, tell me where the girl with you is." The snake demon narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Liuyun and asked.
When Ye Liuyun heard the woman's voice, he couldn't help but speak, but at the last moment, the Lanwei Sword in Ye Liuyun's body suddenly moved, and a blue light emanated from her body, which not only freed Ye Liuyun from the imprisonment, but also scared the snake demon.
The snake demon quickly retreated a distance, then looked at Ye Liuyun with surprise.
"Is it the aura of that earth-level magic weapon? I didn't expect that this thing was hidden in your body." The snake demon said in surprise.
Now that the physical restraints were lifted, Ye Liuyun breathed a sigh of relief.
