Following Zhao Heng, Mengqi and Jiang Zhiwei passed through a narrow mountain road. The dark and green plants on the roadside were also covered with a faint Buddha's light. The clean and solemn glaze and the feeling of filth and depravity were intertwined, indistinguishable.
At the end of the road was a valley. Ruan Yushu was sitting on top of a huge rock silently. His clothes were as white as snow, and he was as cold as the moon. Sometimes, he would emit a dense fairy aura, and sometimes, he would be surrounded by black light, and his shrill voice would be terrifying.
Her exquisite and perfect face was the same. Sometimes it was cold and elegant, sometimes it was bewitching and strangely beautiful, and it moved one's heartstrings and tempted one's desire.
"She has a protective item that's resisting the Prime Devil's consciousness. Let's go and help her!" Mengqi said quickly to Jiang Zhiwei and Zhao Heng.
He quickened his pace and charged towards Ruan Yushu like a gust of wind.
Jiang Zhiwei and Zhao Heng, one on the left and the other on the right, followed closely behind. They did not try to go around to other directions. After Mengqi attracted his attention, they quietly approached him and succeeded in one hit. Since Ruan Yushu's musical attack had a large area of effect, they had to take it head-on in order to get close to him!
— — Lady Ruan had a secret technique that allowed her to choose who she would affect when she played most songs. Thus, if it was her teammates, she wouldn't have to worry about accidentally injuring them. But now, as she was about to be possessed, she would definitely choose to hurt them indiscriminately.
Ruan Yushu's breath froze as his celestial aura was suppressed. He placed his hands on the zither and played it gently.
As soon as the sound of the zither entered his ears, Mengqi immediately felt flustered. It was as if his feet were tied to a thousand-pound boulder, and his movements became sluggish. Jiang Zhiwei and Zhao Heng were the same.
Closing his Ear Apertures, Mengqi temporarily got rid of the influence of the zither music and abruptly closed the distance between them.
Dang!
The gentle strokes became more urgent, and the sounds of killing rang out. The music seemed to have directly sounded in Mengqi's Primordial Spirit. His soul felt as if it had been hit by a hammer, and he felt dizzy and unbearable.
Then, his footsteps became sluggish, as if he was stuck to something. His body swayed left and right, and the airflow around him became abnormal.
Hammering, sticking, pulling, spinning, the Eight Notes of the Heavenly Dragon. After eight steps, he would die!
The center of Mengqi's brows heated up, and his spirit was projected outwards as he circulated the Heavens and Earth Striking Technique. His entire body seemed to have transformed into the sky as he looked down at the vicissitudes of the world, the joys and sorrows of partings and reunions, the endless cycle of reincarnation, boundless and vast, and an indifferent and emotionless aura suffused the air. The Eight Notes of the Heavenly Dragon were no longer able to affect him effectively.
He was using a secret mental technique to fight against the Soul Disturbing Sound!
Jiang Zhiwei, whose Primordial Spirit was not as strong as Mengqi's, fought with the sword will in her heart and moved forward firmly. It was as if she had broken through the layers of music.
Zhao Heng's seven orifices bled slightly under the effect of the Eight Demi-dragon's Sounds. Then, his face turned solemn, and a golden spot appeared between his eyebrows. Yellow light slowly overflowed from it, making him look like a god who had descended to the world and was impervious to all sounds.
This was not a secret mental technique. Mengqi had heard of it before. It was the Heaven and Earth God-suppressing Seal recorded in the Book of Shocking the World. It protected one's Vital Spirit with sincerity.
Ruan Yushu's music changed again when the distance between the two of them had shortened to a dangerous point. It was like a bright lake under the moon, reflecting the splendor of the splendor. It was cold and serene, with a touch of sadness and sweetness filling the air. It brought a tranquility from the heart, a tranquility like ice.
The sky seemed to be frozen, and Mengqi's thoughts became slightly sluggish. He only felt an irresistible chill rising from the bottom of his heart, and his Vital Spirit was about to become an "ice sculpture".
"Guanghan Mantra?" Mengqi suddenly remembered the Exterior-level zither score Ruan Yushu had exchanged for. He had never expected that he would be the first person she would try after mastering it!
Jiang Zhiwei's footsteps slowed down. The sword in her hand seemed to be piercing through layers of ice, but it was not as strong as Mengqi's Vital Spirit, which had cultivated several secret mental techniques at the same time. Thus, she kept a distance from him.
However, she was still moving forward. It was too troublesome to face such an enemy. She could not hit him, nor could she use Exterior-level moves to resist. She had to rely on her Vital Spirit and genuine Qi. If it was an enemy, she would have activated her Precious Weapon long ago. Her Sword Qi would have surged for dozens of miles and hurt people from afar. However, she could not control its power, and it would be easy for her to kill Ruan Yushu. She could not use such a risky move unless she had no other choice.
Zhao Heng also walked slower and slower. The golden spot between his eyebrows became "clear" as if it had frozen into ice.
The Qi dragon behind him condensed, and he had entered the range of a long-range attack. He hoped to use this opportunity to affect Ruan Yushu.
He threw a punch with the force of a dragon, stirring up a gale and pouncing on his opponent.
Ruan Yushu kept playing the zither. Every time she flicked her fingers, she would release a streak of Sword Qi. Some were simple, some were powerful, some were bold, some were quick, some were agile, and some were unpredictable. They surged in the air and shot out Qi dragon, interweaving into a net.
The whooshing sounds continued and the zither music did not stop. The chill in his heart grew stronger and the dragon of Qi dissipated. However, the strong wind blew in front of Ruan Yushu, causing her long hair to flutter and her clothes to flutter.
Ruan Yushu's hands paused for a moment, as if she was about to play the 12 Magical Sounds of Langhuan.
Mengqi was still a distance away from her, so he could not stop her. He could only try to activate Heaven Inflicted Pain!
At this moment, her breath changed. Her fairy Qi became stronger, suppressing the demonic intent. Her eyes became clear again, and her hands stopped moving. However, the black light did not retreat. It was as stubborn as a rock, and was about to gain the upper hand again.
Seeing this situation, Meng Qi suddenly had an idea. He shouted, "Let's go!
"Dragon Fish Jerky!"
Ruan Yushu was stunned. Her hands stopped playing the zither, and her fairy Qi increased by half. Her mind became clearer.
It worked! Mengqi ran wildly, shouting as he ran,
"Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted goose, salted duck, marinated chicken, preserved meat, steamed crab, small intestine, lobster, dried meat, sausage, assorted Su Pan, smoked chicken, white belly, steamed pig with eight treasures, glutinous rice stuffed duck, poached pheasant, poached quail, marinated assorted, marinated goose, marinated prawns, braised prawns, fried prawns, pheasant, rabbit breast, whitebait, braised duck kidney, braised duck strips, mixed duck shreds …"
The fairy Qi grew stronger, and Ruan Yushu's eyes became clearer. Her hands stopped playing the zither.
When they reached a certain distance, Mengqi activated the Buddha's Lamp. The light spread and illuminated all directions, including countless corners. It shrouded Ruan Yushu, causing the black light to stagnate and slowly dissipate. Then, he quickly closed in and performed the Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth.
This time, Mengqi saw the specific appearance of all the food that he had called out. He was drooling. Finally, he saw that he was in charge of paying the bill …
With the double suppression from the protective artifact and the Buddha's Lamp, Mengqi easily helped Ruan Yushu to defeat Primogenitor Devil's consciousness. Then, he asked her to take out a Filth-extracting Pill to expel the filth from her body.
Seeing that Ruan Yushu was saved, Jiang Zhiwei was quite happy. She teased, "Little monk, just now, you looked like …"
As she spoke, she burst out laughing.
"The waiter who reported the names of the dishes." Ruan Yushu spat out the filth and helped Jiang Zhiwei to finish the sentence with a straight face.
Mengqi chuckled and did not mind. He changed the topic and said, "Hurry up and look for Senior Brother Qi. We can't delay any longer."
Saving people was more important. Ruan Yushu quickly got up and followed with the Phoenix-Perching Zither in her arms. The green jade pendant on her had split into two.
Just as they ran out of the valley, a man in a green robe walked toward them. He had a calm demeanor and was expressionless. It was none other than Qi Zhengyan.
"Senior Brother Qi, stop!" Mengqi was delighted at first, but he immediately shouted.
Then he noticed that Qi Zhengyan's eyes were clear and there was not a trace of filth on his body. He asked doubtfully, "Senior Brother Qi, you're not possessed by Primogenitor Devil's consciousness?"
Seeing that Mengqi and the others did not seem to be possessed, Qi Zhengyan said in a low voice, "The Book of the Chaos has been cultivating the strange energy between heaven and earth since the beginning of Qi Accumulation. It can communicate with the inside and outside of the Book of the Chaos. Primogenitor Devil's consciousness tried to possess you, but it was burned away by the Rosy Afterglow Swing."
The Rosy Afterglow Swing was of the fire attribute.
"I see …" Mengqi had never cultivated the Book of the Chaos, so he did not know if that was the case. It was better to be safe than sorry. "Senior Brother Qi, I'm worried that there are remnants of Primogenitor Devil's consciousness, so please illuminate the Buddha's Lamp. We'll illuminate it together so you can rest assured."
Qi Zhengyan was stunned for a moment. "Okay!"
The green lamp grew bigger and shone brightly. It was warm and tranquil, sprinkling on people's hearts. Qi Zhengyan's body was covered with a layer of flame. There was no black gas or filth at all. It was the same for Mengqi and the others.
"No problem at all!" With all his companions saved, Mengqi relaxed. He was overjoyed and said solemnly,
"Senior Brother Qi, smile."
Qi Zhengyan did not understand. Seeing Mengqi's solemn attitude, he thought that Mengqi was trying to determine whether Primogenitor Devil's consciousness had possessed them or not, so he forced a smile.
"Your smile is still so stiff. You're indeed the Senior Brother Qi who hasn't been possessed!" Mengqi suddenly smiled brightly, revealing his eight snow-white teeth.
"Pfft!" Jiang Zhiwei, who had been puzzled before, burst into laughter. Ruan Yushu's lips curled up faintly, and Zhao Heng's face twitched. If they were in each other's shoes, he would definitely give Su Meng a good beating!
Qi Zhengyan's eyes twitched. Mengqi took a step back and said in a loud voice, "The Demonworld Fragment is changing.
We must hurry back to the entrance and try to kill another evil spirit on the way. We'll collect enough Demonic Crystals to leave this place as soon as possible! "
These were the words of an experienced man. Qi Zhengyan calmed himself down and, together with Jiang Zhiwei and the others, identified their direction by the landscape of the mountains and rivers, and hurried to the edge of the Glazed Light.
…
Outside the Skyscraping Palace, Military Star and Matriarch of the West quietly landed. They did not enter rashly for fear of an ambush.
In the depths of the Demonworld Fragment, Bluecloud Progenitor waited until the terrifying monster was far away before leaving the cave and sneaking toward the entrance.
Suddenly, she noticed that the faint Buddha light around her was disappearing!
No, it wasn't disappearing! It was shrinking toward a certain spot. The Buddha light had almost condensed into a solid glaze, and in the center, the Devil Qi was so dense that it seemed to have a life of its own.
The terrifying aura of the monster was vaguely emitting from within.
"What's wrong?" Bluecloud Progenitor was puzzled. She suspected that the matter of the Demonworld Fragment had reached a critical juncture. She gritted her teeth, thinking that she still had a life-saving item. Thus, she moved closer to the monster, trying to figure out what had happened so that she would not have a chance to make up for it later!
…
Mengqi and the others stopped in their tracks. Their expressions were solemn, unable to restrain the fear in their hearts.
In front of them stood a monster!
It was a dried corpse. It had not decayed, but it had lost all moisture. It was wearing a yellow frock and a red kasaya. Half of its body was as black as ink, while the other half was glowing with a glazed light.
The two were not separated, but entangled with each other. Sometimes the glazed light would suppress it, and sometimes the Devil Qi would surge into the sky. The aura was extremely terrifying.
