Heaven and earth were boundless, and the universe was vast. In the long river of history, humans were never alone. Many unknown existences had witnessed this vast history with humans.
Immortals, demons, and devils.
These were five different life forms. Not to mention the other forms, just the legend of 'demons' had been passed down since ancient times. It could be said that it had always been a hot topic in people's mouths.
Everything had spirits, and heaven and earth were born.
No matter if it was grass, trees, mountains, rocks, birds, or beasts, if they could gain intelligence, they could gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorb the essence of the sun and moon. These life forms also had a common name — demons!
In the suburbs of the capital, in the nameless mountain range.
It was the beginning of spring, and everything was recovering. The mountain was covered in lush green vegetation, giving people a feeling of prosperity. A cool breeze blew, bringing with it the fragrance of plants.
Above the mountain peak, a sea of clouds lingered.
A bamboo forest swayed in the clouds, and a simple stone house stood in the middle of the bamboo forest. It made people feel as if they were in a fairyland.
In the stone house.
Xue Gie was dressed in a white palace gauze, and her hair was tied into a bun. Her lips were bright red, and there was a cinnabar dot between her eyebrows. She gave people an extremely stunning and cold temperament.
Dong!
The sound of the zither was like water, and it was like the sound of a fairy. After the ancient fairy tune was played, Xue Gie's hands left the zither, and for the first time, she looked at the person in front of her.
"Mr. Ye, although I am the leader of the Desolate Group, I have always lived in seclusion deep in the mountains. I rarely pay attention to the trivial matters of the mortal world. Why do you have to force me?"
Xue Gie's beauty could be described as a peerless beauty. She was looking at Ye Xuan pitifully, giving people an impulse to hold her in their arms and protect her.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan was not moved. When he opened and closed his eyes, there was only indifference in his eyes when he looked at Xue Gie.
"Humans have their own ways, demons have their own ways. Your bewitching trick may work on others, but to me, you are just showing off your slight skill in front of an expert."
Ye Xuan smiled contemptuously. When he opened and closed his eyes, the terrifying bloody light seemed to solidify, and the surrounding void faintly sounded with the cries of dead souls. An extremely terrifying evil aura suppressed Xue Gie.
Bang!
The wooden zither exploded, and the void exploded. The Snow Girl's expression changed slightly. A dim light flashed on her body, and she disappeared from the stone house in an eerie manner.
"Mr. Ye, I have no intention of becoming your enemy, but I'm not afraid of you."
Xue Ji's tender voice resounded from all directions in the void. It contained a faint trace of anger. Wisps of white smoke rose from the stone house and instantly engulfed Ye Xuan.
"You dare to take out a mere Spirit Trapping Array to embarrass yourself?"
Ye Xuan laughed coldly. When he struck out with his palm, the entire stone house exploded. A slender figure let out a muffled groan and fled out of the stone house.
"You want to leave?"
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes. His two sword-fingers slashed through the air, seemingly crossing the barrier of time and space. He slashed out a resplendent sword Qi, which immediately caused Xue Gie to cry out in pain.
Buzz!
Ye Xuan suddenly appeared in the middle of the bamboo forest. His sparkling and translucent jade-like palm directly grabbed onto Xue Ji's pure white neck. When his eyes opened and closed, a sinister killing intent emerged.
"Little beast, you've only just entered the Foundation Establishment Realm. You want to fight against me?"
"If you tell me the secret of turning into a demon, I'll let you live. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for destroying your body and soul so that you'll never be reincarnated." Ye Xuan was domineering, violent, and unreasonable. He directly used his strength to suppress her. He had no pity for her at all.
"You … you really are a cultivator." Xue Gie's face turned red, and her voice trembled.
Ye Xuan wasn't surprised that Xue Ji had seen through his identity. After all, the other party's life force was that of a demon and had a sharp intuition towards cultivators. Ye Xuan didn't even think of hiding himself in front of Xue Ji.
"Tell me, why can you turn into a demon? How many demon clans are there in this world?" Ye Xuan said in an icy voice.
"Let … let go of me … I'll tell you," Xue Gie said with difficulty.
"That's right. As long as you're obedient, I won't hurt you." Ye Xuan let go of Xue Gie and gently helped her tidy up her wrinkled gauze. The warm smile on his face was very amiable.
However, when Xue Gie saw this, she felt a chill run down her spine. She stepped back and kept a safe distance from Ye Xuan.
Temperamental, vicious, and ruthless. These were the feelings that Ye Xuan gave her. When facing someone like Ye Xuan, although Xue Gie was a demon, she was clearly afraid of Ye Xuan.
After hesitating for a long time, Xue Ji's expression kept changing, as if she was hesitating about something. During this time, Ye Xuan didn't disturb him in the slightest. He believed that Xue Ji would give him a satisfactory answer.
"Come with me." After a dozen breaths of time, Xue Gie's expression became firm as if she had made a decision. She walked towards the cliff. Ye Xuan slowly followed behind her.
A sea of clouds curled around the peak of the mountain. Further ahead was a bottomless abyss. Xue Gie did not stop. She directly leapt into the air and jumped down the cliff.
Such a scene made Ye Xuan narrow his eyes. Could this woman's secret be at the bottom of the cliff?
Without the slightest hesitation or fear of any traps, Ye Xuan took a step forward and dove down towards the bottom of the cliff.
At the bottom of the cliff.
An old cave was firmly blocked by a huge rock. When Xue Ji moved the huge rock away, a wisp of spiritual light suddenly gushed out from the cave, causing Ye Xuan's eyes to be stunned. A strange expression flashed through his eyes.
"Mister Ye, please."
Under Xue Gie's guidance, the two of them directly entered the cave.
There was a completely different world within the cave. When the two of them went deep into the belly of the mountain, a clear spring water with a faint amount of spirit energy was directly reflected in Ye Xuan's eyes. Breathing in the thin amount of spirit energy, Ye Xuan immediately felt refreshed. His cultivation even faintly showed signs of fluctuation.
"Mister Ye, I was originally a white lotus in this spiritual spring. Because I absorbed the Spiritual Qi in the spring water, it took me 500 years to turn into a demon. This is my secret," Xue Gie said sincerely.
Hearing Xue Gie's words, Ye Xuan slowly walked until he came to the side of the spiritual spring. When he inhaled and exhaled, an extremely thin Spiritual Qi was sucked into his mouth and nose. When Xue Gie saw this scene, she immediately felt a pain in her heart. However, she did not dare to say anything.
"It really is a spiritual spring."
"Unfortunately, this spiritual spring is just a drop in the bucket for me." Ye Xuan closed his eyes and felt it. When he opened his eyes, a trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes.
Perhaps some people would ask why Ye Xuan forced Xue Gie to reveal the secret of her demon transformation. In fact, Ye Xuan's purpose was to find the source of the Spiritual Qi in hopes of improving his cultivation.
One must know that Ye Xuan was able to become an immortal cultivator because he cultivated the Immortal Immortal Scripture and experienced four years of bloody battles in the Blood Sea Battlefield. Only then did he have the cultivation of the Crossing Calamity Stage.
By absorbing the Blood Soul Essence, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. This kind of cultivation speed was one in a billion in the legendary Earth Immortal World, let alone in the world of Dharma Ending.
Struggling between life and death and recovering from death, no one understood the meaning of life better than Ye Xuan. Not only did he want to live well, but he also had a great ambition in his heart. He wanted to become an immortal in the Boundless Secular World.
