"Senior, what are you looking at?"
Su Mian was a little confused by his stare. After asking, he suddenly felt a slight weight on his shoulder, and a cold breath almost blew from his earlobes.
"What's that?!"
Su Mian's scalp was numb, and he was about to turn his head subconsciously. At this moment, Su Li waved her hand, and his body immediately moved forward involuntarily. The thing on his shoulder also fell, and the sound of rolling came from behind him.
He curiously wanted to turn back, but Su Li pressed the back of his head with one hand and walked to the depths of the tunnel.
"Don't look, or you won't be able to eat."
Su Li said lightly and let go of the restraint.
The more Su Mian listened to her, the more curious he was.
Seeing that they were about to go far away, he finally couldn't restrain the restlessness in his heart and quietly glanced back.
Just at this glance, he clearly saw the thing swimming on the ground behind him.
What was that?
How could it move when its face was hollowed out? Was its lower body … a snake tail?!
A snake? Or a human?
For a moment, Su Mian's face turned green. He suppressed his inner disgust and quickly walked behind Su Li. Looking at her expressionless face, he couldn't help but admire her.
Not everyone in the cultivation circle could see such a horrible thing, but the senior's expression didn't change at all.
Su Li sped up for the next part of the way, not only because the thing in the darkness behind them was closely following them, but also because the breath emitted by the surrounding walls was getting worse.
These things were not fatal to her.
She hadn't been poisoned for a long time. Even if the snake venom in the air was very powerful, it was basically a decoration for her.
But for Su Mian … it was not a good experience.
She turned her head and glanced at Su Mian, who was in a trance. Obviously, he had fallen into the illusion. For a moment, she wanted to feed Su Mian some blood to try to detoxify him, but she immediately gave up the idea when she thought of the Immortal Tea Plant.
"You don't want to kill me, but just want me to meet you as soon as possible …"
Su Li slightly narrowed her eyes, and a trace of thinking flashed through her eyes.
An hour later, the mine controlled by the Sixth Branch was still in full swing. But deep in the mine, a psychological game was taking place.
Walking through the corridor full of strange patterns, Su Li finally came to a cave.
This place was filled with cold air. The cave was filled with icy blue icicles. The extreme coldness seemed to be able to penetrate through the bones. In the middle of the cave, there was a tree that seemed to be carved out of ice. Under the blue light, it looked like jade.
Su Mian couldn't stay a moment longer and was soon frozen into a coma. It was convenient for Su Li to let the nightmare swallow him directly and avoid being disturbed.
Su Li walked to the ice tree and looked at the cold pool in front of her. In such a low temperature, the pool was still sparkling and did not freeze.
She immediately remembered a legend mentioned by Dongfang Wuxue.
In the depths of the Black Stone Forest, there was a cold pond that was so deep that its bottom could not be seen. At the bottom of the pond hid an extremely terrifying old monster.
At the bottom of the pond?
Su Li squatted down and looked at her reflection in the lake.
Suddenly, the face in the lake changed into … Su Li in the Reincarnation Mirror!
Shua!
Su Li stood up abruptly and looked around with gloomy eyes.
"Hehehe, don't be nervous. I'm just joking with you. "
The seductive voice came from the bottom of the lake and echoed in the cave as if it came from all directions. Su Li stared at the lake. The legend was true. Was there really a mighty monster at the bottom of the lake?!
Splash —
The calm lake gradually rippled, and then the lake water churned and a shadow appeared.
Su Li took a few steps back and looked at the snake man who jumped out of the lake.
Or … a beauty with a snake and scorpion!
Su Li looked at the mighty monster that Black Lotus said. The monster in front of her was half human and half demon. Its upper body was human, and it had a perfect and delicate face. It seemed to be the most pleasing work of art in the world. Just one glance could make people immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.
As for the lower half of its body, it was a thick snake tail covered in scales. Compared to its willow-like waist, the snake tail was as thick as a water bucket. It was covered in dark purple scales that were incomparably sharp and gave off a threatening chill.
Although the monster did not emit much heavy pneuma, Su Li felt a pressure.
This pressure did not come from the bloodline of the Demon Clan, but … time!
"Black Lotus is right. This monster is an old monster who has lived for many years … Black Lotus, do you know him?!"
Su Li tried to call Black Lotus, but only felt a sense of fear.
Did Black Lotus not only know him, but was also afraid of him?
Su Li's heart sank slightly, and her slightly relaxed mind became tense again.
"Little girl. I have been observing you for a long time. "
The big demon rested her snow-white arms beside the pool. A gentle smile appeared on her delicate face. Her crisp and sweet voice made people involuntarily intoxicated. "My name is Zi Sha. Don't be afraid. Come and sit here."
Su Li's eyes were clear. Instead of moving forward, she stepped back a few steps and said in a cold tone, "Are you observing me?"
Seeing Su Li's reaction, Zi Sha was a little bored. She waved her hand and said, "Well, if you want to stand and chat with me, then just stand."
As soon as she finished speaking, the icicles on the walls of the cave suddenly melted. Countless half-snake, half-human monsters with their faces hollowed out fell from above. In an instant, the entire cave was filled with the disgusting smell of blood.
Only the area where Su Li stood was clean.
As Zi Sha said, she only left a space for Su Li to stand still.
"Su Li, I like your name very much. Since you left this forest last time, I have liked you."
Zi Sha swayed her snake tail in the water, and her cheeks were red. She said happily, "I threw out a lot of demon crystals to attract you. Sure enough, you came in less than a month."
Su Li looked at the joy on her face. It seemed that she was not pretending, but she did not feel lucky at all.
The Demon Clan liked to eat people the most. Would she like a food?
It was simply a fantasy.
"Zi Sha."
Su Li said slowly, and her tone was as cold as before, "If you have anything to say, you might as well come straight to the point. Although you are a mighty demon, the cultivation circle is not suitable for you to stay. If you are exposed, there will be countless old ancestors of holy sects who want to keep you as a pet. So, if you want something, you might as well say it directly. If you have been watching me all the time, you will know that neither of us can afford to waste time. Why waste time? "
The cold words hit the nail on the head, and the relationship between the two was instantly revealed.
The beautiful blush on Zi Sha's face faded away, and two rows of white teeth were revealed, "It seems that you are not as simple as I thought. After you entered Yuxu Sect, your pneuma disappeared for a period of time, and then you became more powerful. If I didn't really want to ask you for help, I would break your body to see what secrets are inside."
Su Li's body tightened. She did not speak, but her mind was slightly relaxed.
This mighty demon really wanted to ask her for help.
After a moment of silence, Su Li said first, "Why me? You have lived long enough. For countless years, I am definitely not the only one who came to the Black Stone Forest. Even many people left the Black Stone Forest last time. "
"Little girl, I am very good at judging people."
Zi Sha's vertical pupils glowed, and she licked her lips with her snake tongue, "The taste of the Human Clan is very sweet, but there are many kinds. The flesh of mortals is coarse and the most unpalatable. What really tastes good is practitioners. The more talented practitioners are, the more tender their flesh is. Besides, there is an irresistible fragrance for our Demon Clan. You smell … very fragrant. "
Su Li's eyes changed, and she said sarcastically, "You said this to a food. Aren't you afraid that I won't help you?"
"As I said, I have been observing you … for a long time."
Zi Sha did not seem to be in a hurry at all, and she told all the reasons, "Your character is very similar to mine. We are both people who will do whatever it takes to achieve our goals and abandon everything. The so-called restraint of reason doesn't exist for us at all! So, as long as I take out something that appeals to you, you will definitely help me, won't you?
And I also know that your existence is not tolerated by the natural law! With the improvement of your cultivation, you will have nowhere to hide under the natural law, right? "
Zi Sha glanced at the broken Reincarnation Mirror on Su Li's waist and giggled, "A broken mirror alone can't help you resist much. But I can help you." Su Li was silent until Zi Sha finished.
She took a light breath after Zi Sha finished, and there was no panic on her face. She also showed a smile on her face, "You deserve to be a mighty demon who has lived for tens of thousands of years. You can even see these in such a short time. But, Senior Zi Sha, are you going to let me promise first and then tell you the requirements? "
"I like your calmness very much."
Zi Sha fiddled with her slender nails, and her eyes were full of purple, "What I want you to do is very simple. Help me attract the attention of the natural law. As long as you can hold on for a quarter of an hour, I can give you those rewards at any time. "
"Attract the attention of the natural law?"
Su Li's eyes changed, "You want me to take the initiative to expose myself and attract the punishment of the natural law? What's the difference between that and death? "
Zi Sha picked her nails and giggled, but the snakes around her roared, "Little girl, do you really think that you can walk out of here alive if you don't promise?"
Su Li slightly pursed her lips and didn't speak.
Zi Sha sighed and pointed to those roaring snakes, "These are all your predecessors. Unfortunately, they either don't promise or fail. I can only let them accompany me in this way forever.
In fact, I know people like you very well. When you know your fate, you will think all the time about how to escape from the punishment of the natural law if you are noticed by the natural law one day. Especially you, Su Li, you are calm enough and your thinking is also meticulous. Others must think more about these questions. Maybe … you can really escape from the punishment of the natural law.
Anyway, you will die if you don't promise. Why don't you promise and have a try? "
Zi Sha's tone was gentle, and she persuaded Su Li softly, as if she was really thinking about Su Li.
Su Li looked silent. It was the first time that she faced a mighty ancient demon. She finally had the deepest understanding of the horror of this kind of existence.
"I promise you. But I have a requirement. "
