Chapter 90 I'll ask you if you can save me Ruan Xing continued walking along the passage for a while, and strangely, he did not encounter any obstructions. It was quiet and empty inside, without any mechanisms or formations. But soon, Ruan Xing saw something different. The yellow-brown tree trunk under his feet was spotted with blood. The bloodstain was dark in color and had dried, probably from several days ago. Ruan Xing rolled it with the tip of her shoe, but it didn't come off. There was only one passage, and the bloodstains extended all the way. Finally, she saw Fu Qinghong's body on a slightly larger circular ground. His eyes were half closed, his mouth was slightly open, and his face and body were covered with large patches of blood. Ruan Xing went over and touched his carotid artery, and it was hard. The bad thing is that the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation are unscientific. Under normal circumstances, corpses will not have things like corpse spots and stench. Otherwise, Ruan Xing could not imagine what the consequences would be if a person died in such a confined space for several days. She quickened her pace and passed Fu Qinghong's body. After walking a few dozen steps forward, she saw a platform with a slightly larger space. In front of her was Fu Yu's body. She fell on the edge of the platform, her face facing outwards with her eyes wide open, which scared Ruan Xing. She climbed onto the platform through a small gap left by Fu Yu, and saw something tangled up like tree roots in the middle. They were holding up a palm-sized rectangular block, dark green in color, emitting a faint fluorescent green glow.
That thing is the heart of the tree, right? It should be a good thing. Ruan Xing raised his foot and walked over. Xie Huai was leaning against the roots of a tree, sitting with his head down, looking lifeless, with several jade tablets of the sect scattered around his hands. She was just about to take the tree core and leave when someone grabbed her ankle. Her foot suddenly felt cold. Ruan Xing quickly shook it off and took several steps back. "Fuck, is he dead?" As Xie Huai's body was thrown away, it fell to one side. Ruan Xing moved closer and finally felt his faint vitality. "Save me..." His lips moved slightly, and the sound he made was almost inaudible. Ruan Xing was happy, "Hey, are you out of your mind? You want me to save you?" If we were to ask who was the happiest about Xie Huai's death, she would be the first one to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Xie Huai seemed to be in a state of confusion. After being thrown away by Ruan Xing, he did not change his posture, but instinctively discovered that someone next to him was asking for help. But no matter who sees the two corpses of Zhongzhou monks next to Xie Huai, no one will save him. If this scene was the beginning of a book, she could guess the direction of the plot. A beautiful and kind female cultivator and a handsome and cunning demon cultivator were entangled for a lifetime because of their softness of heart. The life-saving grace made the usually cold and selfish demon cultivator a little different from others. The two of them went around in circles and fell in love with each other... A character like Gu Xiaowu was quite popular ten years ago. Unfortunately, you can’t wait for your heroine, and the content of this book is not intended for this kind of plot. Ruan Xing rubbed his hands excitedly, picked up the dagger and stab Xie Huai again. Worried that he hadn't pierced through enough, he stabbed a few more times at the throat, heart and other vital parts. After carefully checking to confirm that Xie Huai was really dead, Ruan Xing reached out to get the tree core. Holding the heavy piece of wood in his hand, Ruan Xing's vision changed, as if there had just been a slight turbulence in this space. Ruan Xing suddenly realized that the changes in her vision several times before were due to this piece of wood. So, on the eighth day, maybe Xie Huai recovered on his own, or someone saved Xie Huai on the eighth day, or after Xie Huai died, someone else came in and took the tree heart away. So if I leave the secret realm now, will I return to the Xuanbing Sect or go to the gray-clothed demon cultivator? But she had to go back to the cave first and take the two big guys with her. She needed the sect's jade token to go out. When she was looking for puppet materials for the big guys, she stole the storage bag and prepared the jade token.
It took nearly two days to fly back, and it was exactly the eighth day when I got back. Unfortunately, she didn't have time to study the piece of wood, and she didn't know what it was used for. Rushing back to the cave without stopping, she looked at the two bosses, took out the wood and asked questions. "This was taken from the Xiantai Tree, right?" The demon cultivator took a casual look. "In the beginning, we fought for the Xiantai Tree. There is a sky leak in Xiantai, and divine light falls from the sky leak. This Xiantai Tree is a treasure left behind from the upper realm. Unfortunately, the fight caused space turbulence, and this place became a secret realm. We were all trapped here to death. If I hadn't become a god-transforming cultivator with a strong soul and a technique that allowed me to devour and nourish it, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive today." After saying this, he looked at the fairy with a half-smile, "But your fellow disciples and my subordinates have already died of old age and their souls have melted away." The fairy ignored him and said coldly: "Your tree heart doesn't look like the breath of a fairy tree, but rather has a dead air." "Fairy is really smart!" Ruan Xing flattered quickly: "Where I went to get the tree heart, there is indeed a giant tree that has dried up." "Exhausted?" The fairy was in a trance for a moment. The demon cultivator sneered, "You are trapped here and don't know the information outside. It turns out that the Xiantai tree has long been dry. Can the dead tree heart still be the heart of the Xiantai tree? It's just a better grade of soul nourishing wood." Soul-nourishing tree? Ruan Xing's heart moved, and he remembered the introduction of the soul-nourishing tree in "The Ghost Record of the Netherworld". Born in death and die in vitality, it is the tree that nourishes the soul. This is the best material for making puppets. The demon cultivator looked down upon the Soul-Nourishing Wood, but Ruan Xing was quite happy. She didn't know how to use things like the heart of the Xiantai Tree, so she would just treat it as a hot potato in her hands. But she knew how to use the Soul-Nourishing Wood. Moreover, such a large piece can be divided into many puppets! No, no, she is not an evil cultivator, nor a puppet. She was influenced by that damn Xie Huai. She is obviously a good person. She silently stuffed the soul-nourishing wood back into the storage bag. She would give this thing to Jian Lai when she returned. Nourishing his soul would not only increase his strength and the speed of Yin Qi condensation, but also improve his mind. "Two seniors, the time is almost up, let's leave the secret realm." Ruan Xing said as he handed them the sect's jade token and taught them how to use it. Because their bodies were the owners of the jade token, they still accepted the master's orders despite their different auras. The three of them appeared outside the secret realm. Looking at the gloomy sky and the blood-red soil on the ground, Ruan Xing's heart sank. Sure enough, it was still here, and it was still this demon cultivator. Perhaps it was because Ruan Xing took the tree heart on the sixth day this time. Although the cultivators did not receive the jade communication from Fu Yu, many cultivators still noticed something was wrong and left the secret realm ahead of time. This vigilance allowed them to successfully stay one step ahead of others on the road to the underworld. The sight of dozens of corpses piled in front of them made people want to vomit. Ruan Xingqiang suppressed the discomfort and began to search for the figure of the old man in gray. The magic cultivator's skills seemed to be very special and very hidden. As long as he did not take the initiative to make a sound and show up, no one would be able to detect his presence even if he stood in front of them. The two bosses' thoughts were much simpler. When they saw the corpses on the ground, they gave their feedback and comments immediately. The demon cultivator's eyes lit up: "So many things to eat!" The fairy was furious: "How cruel!" Ruan Xing held his forehead with his hand and said: Stop thinking about eating all the time, my dear father, look at this environment. "You knew it would be like this?" The fairy was keenly aware of something and questioned Ruan Xing, "I was wondering before, why did you take two such obvious puppets out? Didn't your master look after you? It turns out that the world is like this now. You don't even care when your disciples are slaughtered at the gate of your own secret realm!" Her voice sounded very sad and heartbroken. "That's not the case..." Ruan Xing touched her nose, "I don't know where this is, but it's definitely not the entrance to the sect's secret realm, and now there are no demons ruling the world. You will know it when you see more of the world in the future. Now you should think about how to survive." The demon cultivator suddenly let out a strange cry, grabbed one with each hand and started running. The fairy was confused by this sudden change, "What? Why are you running?" "Didn't you use your spiritual sense to see it just now? That person is so dangerous!"
"No, it is very impolite to use your spiritual sense to look at someone's whole body without their permission." The fairy said righteously. The demon cultivator rolled his eyes, "Oh, yes, yes, you are polite and I am rude. I am going to take you and run for your life, fairy!" Ruan Xing was even more confused, "Did you see anyone just now? Where?" "There was an old man in gray clothes over there just now." said the fairy. The demon cultivator said unhappily, “That’s a demon cultivator!” Ruan Xing said blankly: "You are also a demon cultivator, what are you afraid of? If you can't talk, just beat him." "Do you think we demon cultivators are like you guys, coexisting peacefully among our sects?" The demon cultivator spat, "We are not from the same faction. If we inadvertently break into someone else's territory, it will be a life-and-death struggle. Besides, that guy is in the Nascent Soul stage. The three of us combined can't even beat a Golden Core. How can we fight him?" Nascent Soul stage! Ruan Xing was confused. No, is it necessary? Although Xie Huai's goal was to kill all the new generation of sects that entered the secret realm, they were all in the foundation-building stage. It would be enough to send a golden elixir to show his respect. Why did he send a Yuanying stage big man to kill all the novice village? She really didn't expect this. "The famous Demon King is so cowardly? Ha, you are afraid of him but I am not. He has killed so many righteous monks. I want to enforce justice on the behalf of heaven and put a damper on his prestige. Let me down!" the fairy shouted angrily. "Come on, are you good enough to fight him? Don't forget that our puppet bodies can only exert the strength of the early stage of the golden elixir at most!" "I am not afraid, even if I die I will have no regrets!" "Didn't you say in the cave that you would always follow me and stop me from doing bad things? If you die, no one will care about the sufferings that I will cause wherever I go?" The fairy hesitated and was about to say something, but it was too late. The demon cultivator's current strength is only at the Golden Core level, and he is dragging two burdens with him. The old man in gray quickly caught up with him and killed them one by one with just a single finger. After finishing the simulation, Ruan Xing sighed. Although I got good stuff like the Soul-Nourishing Wood this time, this is a real-life simulation and I can't get random items. However, she still got a lot of information and mastered the method to successfully bring the two big guys out. After they came out, they did not turn against her. The demon cultivator even took her with him to escape, proving that they really didn't know that her death had no impact on them. And they also found out where Xie Huai was causing trouble, which was inside the withered Xiantai tree. If she wanted to stop Xie Huai and return to the entrance of the sect's secret realm normally, she still had to go find him. Ruan Xing started the real-life simulation again. She didn't plan to look for the two big guys, but went directly to Xiantai Tree to see if she could join in the fun. However, her birthplace was some distance away from the Sendai Tree, and it took her a whole day to get there. The entrance to the Xiantai Tree was very quiet, and there seemed to be no signs that anyone had been there, but Ruan Xing was still very careful and prepared. After violently breaking the mechanism formation at the entrance in advance, Ruan Xing walked into the passage and soon saw Fu Qinghong's body. It seems that I am still a step too late. It seems that I can't save him. Ruan Xing glanced at him with some regret, continued walking forward, and saw Fu Yu's astonished expression. Fu Yu was rushing towards her. She didn't have time to think whether this Nanzhou cultivator had walked here accidentally or was in league with the demon cultivator inside. But she subconsciously shouted, "Go!" What to go? Ruan Xing looked at her a little slowly. The last scene before her eyes was a silent and heroic explosion. Xie Huai seemed to have activated some powerful weapon. Fu Yu's eyes opened wide and her expression suddenly froze. Her body stiffly leaned forward and her face fell heavily on the edge of the platform. Ruan Xing's thinking seemed to slow down all of a sudden. At the critical moment of life and death, she was thinking about irrelevant thoughts.
It turns out that this is how Fu Yu died facing outwards on the edge of the platform. After the simulation ended, Ruan Xing fell into deep thought. Did she go early or late? I went too late and missed the chance to save Fu Qinghong. If you go too early, you'll be buried with Fu Yu. After a while, Ruan Xing sighed. She didn't even know how she died, so how could she save the two siblings? Moreover, if the two of them hadn't severely injured Xie Huai, she wouldn't have been able to pick this peach. So be it. The real-life simulation started. Ruan Xing waited outside the Xiantai tree for another day before entering the passage on the third day. The edge he saw this time was almost the same as the first time. Walking past the bodies of Fu Qinghong and Fu Yu, Xie Huai, who was half-leaning, seriously injured and dying, was seen at the innermost tangled area of the tree roots. Qingjun's face was extremely pale and he fell into a coma. Ruan Xing stepped forward and kicked him down hard, then fed him a healing pill. After waiting for a while, the effect of the healing pill was almost taken effect, so she sat on Xie Huai again and slapped him twice in the face to wake him up. Reddish finger marks appeared on his pale face, and Xie Huai slowly opened his eyes. "You saved me and then you beat me up...what do you want to do?" Um, can you still feel something when you are unconscious? Ruan Xing was embarrassed for a moment, then said confidently: "Don't worry about it, just tell me whether I saved you or not." Xie Huai remained silent. "Although I am not the kind of person who asks for repayment for a favor, you still have to repay this favor. You have to tell me how to return to the sect safely." Xie Huai smiled with difficulty, "You ask me this, did you go out and come back? You didn't die... That's amazing." Thanks for the monthly ticket from Hope Wandering~ (End of this chapter)
