Nie Caizhu arrived at the front of the Guanyin Hall, but did not enter the hall. Instead, she bypassed the corridor beside the hall and went straight to the backyard.
Shen Luo followed her and found that she had stopped. At the moment, she was standing beside the well with her back to him.
"Sure enough, there's something strange!" Shen Luo saw this scene and became more and more certain of his guess.
At this moment, Nie Caizhu suddenly turned back. Her eyes were still closed as she "looked" at Shen Luo.
Shen Luo's heart tightened. He immediately turned sideways and hid behind a pillar, concealing his figure.
But before he could look, there was a "splash" sound from the backyard, as if something had fallen into the water.
Shen Luo's heart trembled. He quickly chased out, but saw that Nie Caizhu's figure had disappeared.
He immediately chased to the well and leaned over to take a look. He saw the water in the well rippling. He could vaguely see a figure sinking to the bottom of the water.
Shen Luo was shocked. He immediately made a strange seal with both hands and muttered.
As his voice fell, a burst of blue light appeared around his body. Soon, a layer of very vague translucent blue light formed on the surface of his body. A layer of subtle water ripples could be vaguely seen, as if he was wearing a layer of water clothing. It was the Water Avoidance Technique.
It was just that this Water Avoidance Technique was too different from when he first learned it in the dream. It was hard to say whether it had any defensive power.
Shen Luo couldn't care much at the moment. He could only jump directly over the well's guardrail and fall into the water.
The moment he fell into the water, he was slightly happy. No matter how the Water Avoidance Technique defended, the silent water attribute was not damaged in the slightest. It didn't even cause many ripples in the water.
He breathed freely under the water, and even felt a little carefree like a fish in water. He immediately sank down and chased towards the bottom of the water.
This well was much deeper than he expected. Shen Luo reached the bottom of the well after diving for dozens of feet.
However, other than the silt that had accumulated over the years, where was Nie Caizhu?
While he was puzzled, he suddenly felt a wave of water coming from behind him. He hurriedly turned around to take a look. Only then did he notice that on the wall of the dark well behind him, there was a hole about half the height of a person.
Shen Luo did not hesitate. He immediately entered the horizontal well and moved forward.
After moving forward for a short distance, the horizontal passage suddenly began to rise gradually, and a few bends appeared.
As the terrain grew higher and higher, the water level in the tunnel began to gradually decrease until it was completely exposed.
With the light from his body, Shen Luo saw a trail of wet footprints on the ground, extending all the way to the depths of the tunnel. He continued to chase after it.
After walking for half an incense stick's time, he suddenly wrinkled his nose. He smelled an unusual fragrance in the air of the passage.
He was no stranger to this smell. When he came to the Round Pearl Temple with Nie Caizhu to offer incense, he had smelled it when the "Buddha's Light" appeared. But at that time, before he could find the source, the fragrance disappeared.
Shen Luo did not pay much attention to it at that time, but now he understood that the smell was actually related to the strangeness of the well.
The more he chased forward, the stronger the smell became. For a time, even his sea of consciousness became a little confused.
Shen Luo hurriedly circulated the Nameless Divine Art, and a wave of cool energy rushed into his mind, diluting the hallucinatory feeling.
He calmed down, pinched a few small thunder talismans in his sleeve, and rushed forward a few steps. After a little hesitation, he immediately changed to a thunder talisman and continued to chase.
Not far ahead, the passage suddenly began to widen, and a light came from it.
Shen Luo put away the Water Avoidance Art and carefully followed. When he walked closer, he found that there was a stone room in front of him.
The door of the stone room was open, and a stone table could be seen inside. A beautiful figure was sitting there at the moment, motionless. It was Nie Caizhu.
Opposite her, there was a stooped white-haired old woman. She was wearing a pink robe, with a crimson pearl hairpin in her ear. Her face was full of deep wrinkles, and she seemed to be very old.
But at the moment, the old woman's face was full of smiles. Her eyes were staring at Nie Caizhu's cheeks, as if she was admiring a beautiful porcelain. Her expression was extremely focused, as if there was no other thing in her eyes.
She did not even notice Shen Luo's spying.
Shen Luo also looked at the old woman, but did not find the slightest Yin Qi on her body. He quietly took out the "Mountain Crossing Talisman" hidden in his sleeve, wanting to find out what was going on.
As a result, the moment the talisman came out of his sleeve, it actually burned with a "whoosh".
"What a strong Demon Qi!" Shen Luo quickly dodged, but his heart was shocked.
The grade of the Mountain Crossing Talisman was limited, and the Demon Qi it could detect was also limited. Once the monster was stronger than the late stage of Inedia, the talisman could not bear it and would burn itself.
Shen Luo's body was pressed against the stone wall, and his heart was shocked. The old woman in the room was at least a late stage Inedia monster.
Fortunately, the panic just now did not attract the attention of the old woman in the room. Shen Luo quietly looked into the room again, and saw that the old woman was holding a blood-red Nine Leaf Grass and sending it to Nie Caizhu's mouth.
Shen Luo's heart tightened. He wanted to immediately stop it, but he noticed that the Nine Leaf Grass was dense with Spiritual Qi. It was not poisonous, so he resisted and did not act rashly.
He saw that Nie Caizhu's eyes were still closed, and her mouth opened and closed mechanically. She chewed the blood-red Spiritual Grass bit by bit.
With a roll of her throat, the Spiritual Grass also fell into her stomach.
Then, a layer of yellow Demon Qi, visible to the naked eye, rose from her body, and became more and more intense.
Seeing this, Shen Luo suddenly regretted.
However, at this moment, Nie Caizhu's mouth suddenly made a painful groan, and her eyes opened at this moment. An invisible aura swept out from her body, and suddenly a yellow light lit up behind her.
Shen Luo was surprised, and suddenly he smelled a stronger fragrance of flowers, drifting out from her body, directly covering the strange fragrance that had originally filled the surroundings.
At this time, a surprising scene appeared.
Behind Nie Caizhu, a yellow light burst out violently, and a pair of butterfly-like yellow wings flapped out. From time to time, sparkling powder sprinkled down, faintly discernible.
"Done, done … this bloodline has finally matured, haha …" The old woman saw this, and suddenly, as if she had fallen into madness, laughed wantonly.
Although Nie Caizhu had opened her eyes, there was not much spirit in her eyes. She still sat motionless in the same place, as if she was not aware of the changes in front of her.
At this moment, the white-haired old woman suddenly stopped laughing, and a pink mist began to emerge from her body, and soon the mist filled the whole stone room.
