Chapter 167: Mountains and Rivers
In the valley, time passed by little by little.
Huo Feng walked around anxiously in the valley, while Lian Caiyi sat lazily on a flat place, watching Huo Feng doing useless work.
For the two people trapped in the valley now, everything they did was indeed useless.
First, they could not break through the evil spirit that blocked the valley and get out.
Second, even if they broke through the evil spirit that blocked the valley and got out, they could not beat the eight girls guarding outside.
They would still be thrown in and might be beaten.
For the two people now, what they can do is wait for the Wolf God to find this place and rescue them.
But since the Erba God dared to snatch people from the Wolf God, he must have a complete plan. Even if the Wolf God has extraordinary magical powers, it is probably difficult for him to find this place in time.
Alas...
Lian Caiyi sighed, looking at the figure of the man walking around, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart.
She had practiced hard all her life, but she never thought that she would die so unclearly.
Compared with her mortal enemy Youyue, her death is even more miserable now. She will be drained of her spiritual power by the sword of the demon under the valley until her soul flies away.
As for the purpose of the two-eight gods throwing her and Huo Feng together, Lian Caiyi can see it at a glance.
But she doesn't believe that those monsters will let her go, and she doesn't want to do such a thing in her heart.
When she was admitted by her master, she hated the idea of seducing men to practice as a furnace. She also complained about the behavior of her master and master's ancestors who caused chaos in the world.
In her opinion, the chaotic world sutra can reach the great way without furnace cultivation.
It's just that the speed of cultivation is not that fast.
Although it is boring and slow to practice alone, it is much smoother than the path taken by the master and master.
The master and master's ancestors seduced all living beings and caused chaos in the cultivation world. Although the speed of cultivation is fast, it is easy to be backfired.
The master's ancestors disappeared mysteriously, and his body has not been found until now. Even the treasure of the master's sect [Moon Marrow Mirror] is gone. His death is unclear.
The master was surrounded and killed by the women, and finally thrown into the abyss of the South China Sea, where he died without a burial place.
She took this as a warning.
Of course, people are different.
The master and the grandmaster enjoyed the feeling of causing trouble to all living beings, calling the wind and rain, and playing with countless men in the palm of their hands, but Lian Caiyi didn't like it.
Even if the results of her eight hundred years of hard practice were far less than the master's one hundred years of practice, Lian Caiyi had a clear mind.
The only disgusting thing was those superficial men.
Once they knew that she was the descendant of the lineage of the witch in troubled times, they would either flee in panic, afraid of being seduced by her, or they would pester her endlessly and want to conquer her to prove their manliness.
Of these two types of men, the first one made her disdain, and the second one made her sick.
And the Yunmen boy in front of her, she thought was not in these two categories. But now it seems that he is no different from the men in the world...
Lian Caiyi was a little disappointed.
And Huo Feng, who was walking around in the valley, knew nothing about Lian Caiyi's complaints.
Since he knew that this senior in colorful clothes was a demon girl in troubled times, he carefully distanced himself from her. He tried to have less contact with this demon girl without offending her.
The demon girl in troubled times was famous, and he dared not underestimate her.
But for now, finding a way out was the most important thing.
Although waiting for the rescue of the Wolf God was his only way to survive, it was not Huo Feng's style to sit back and wait for death.
He observed the valley inch by inch, trying to find the slightest flaw in it.
He looked over the piles of bones scattered in the valley again and again.
These seniors who died in the valley were all senior masters who had achieved success in cultivation, and were thrown in by the Erba God to sacrifice the sword. When they were trapped here, they must have looked for a way out.
Maybe one of the seniors successfully escaped and left a way to escape?
But the valley was not big, but not small. There were a huge number of corpses. Although Huo Feng did not mind the trouble and searched for them one by one, he still could not find a way to escape as time went by.
Those predecessors who died here did not seem to leave any last words.
Three days had passed since the two woke up.
In addition to the three days of coma, Huo Feng had not eaten for six days.
Although the body of a cultivator is stronger than that of an ordinary person, Huo Feng had drunk several cups of peach blossom wine. Whenever Huo Feng's body was about to run out of water, the remaining medicinal effect of the peach blossom wine would take effect and save Huo Feng from hunger and thirst.
But this kind of fasting did not last long.
After all, most of the medicinal power of the peach blossom wine was used to repair and maintain Huo Feng's body with broken meridians.
On the fifteenth day, Huo Feng finally felt hungry and thirsty, and he was no longer able to move and began to shake when walking.
Not far from him, Lian Caiyi had already lain down, lying peacefully in the valley, like a real dead body, motionless.
Feeling the energy in his body being sucked away bit by bit, Lian Caiyi said weakly and feebly.
"Alright, alright, don't waste time. You have searched back and forth three times. If there is a way out, you would have found it long ago."
This was the first time the two had a conversation in ten days.
"Now you can't even walk steadily, so don't mess around."
Lian Caiyi said weakly, "You are different from me. The Demon Sword wants to recognize you as its master, so it has not sucked your energy. You can hold on here longer."
"Be good and find a place to rest, don't waste your energy. Wait for the Wolf God to save you."
"As long as the Wolf God comes here, those sixteen little monsters will not be our opponents..."
At this time, Lian Caiyi has reached a desperate situation where the lights are running out.
Eight hundred years of hard work were completely destroyed. All the essence of this body was sucked away by the Demonic Sword, and almost only the last breath was left to hold on.
She finally struggled to speak, and she just wanted to say the last words to the man next to her.
After all, this guy can be regarded as the last man in her life...
Not far away, Huo Feng was sitting next to a withered skeleton. After hearing Lian Caiyi's weak murmur, he was silent for a few breaths and then said.
"Look for one more...look for the last one. If I can't find it, I'll give up."
At first, he really wanted to find a way out.
However, I saw Lian Caiyi becoming haggard day by day, and in the end, he didn't even have the strength to sit up, so he could only lie down helplessly and wait for death.
For some reason, Huo Feng felt a little distressed in his heart.
He suspected that this was the charm of the witch in troubled times, but now, he didn't think much about it.
Lian Caiyi is on his deathbed. If Lian Caiyi is completely sucked dry by the Demonic Sword, perhaps the Demonic Sword that has been hiding in the dark will appear completely and force him to take the sword.
So although Huo Feng seemed to be able to last longer, his time was actually the same as practicing Caiyi.
Putting down the skeleton in his hand and the ring-shaped magic weapon that exuded Taoist divine light next to the skeleton, Huo Feng took a deep breath and walked towards the next skeleton with difficulty.
He murmured, "The last one... give up if you can't find it..."
Behind him, Lian Caiyi watched his struggling back, smiled softly and said.
"Then look for it slowly..."
With that said, the woman closed her eyes and planned to just sleep.
I have searched three times, how could I possibly find it...
She didn't believe that there would be a way out among the bones here.
If the dead could really get out, they would have run away long ago. How could they leave their skeletons here?
In her opinion, Huo Feng's behavior was just a desperate struggle.
However, not long after Lian Caiyi closed his eyes, Huo Feng's startled voice suddenly sounded in the distance.
"Gu Yue's suicide note...Senior Caiyi! Come and see! Your master Gu Yue actually left a suicide note here!"
Um? !
Master’s suicide note?
The eyelashes of the woman lying peacefully in the valley trembled, then she weakly opened her eyes and looked at Huo Feng in the distance.
But she saw Huo Feng sitting next to a corpse, holding a milky white moon disk in his hand, looking at her with a shocked expression.
Even though the milky white disk emitting dim moonlight was far away, Lian Caiyi could still clearly feel the familiar aura on it.
That was indeed the sect's magic weapon that disappeared with Master Gu Yue, the real Moon Marrow Mirror, not the fake that she had found someone to refine in her hand...
Lian Caiyi's eyes widened slightly.
At that moment, looking at Huo Feng sitting among the bones, she felt an incredible sense of absurdity in her heart.
Could it be that this guy really found a way out...
