Chapter 66: Dream, Seemingly True and False (2)
The blood seemed like a living thing. When it smelled the scent of a living person, it instantly turned into twisted blood snakes and pounced towards the mother and daughter.
At this critical moment, the jade pendant in the woman's arms suddenly emitted a soft light, forming a barrier that successfully blocked the first wave of blood snake attacks.
But after this blow, the jade pendant suddenly dimmed.
It looked like he couldn't hold back for a few more seconds.
The woman looked at the blood energy that was still condensing into a blood snake, and then glanced at the exit of the secret passage which was still hundreds of meters away.
This jade pendant is totally unable to withstand that.
This distance of several hundred meters, which could be crossed in just one minute of sprinting on normal days, now became so far away that it became a chasm between life and death.
The woman took a deep breath, tightly grasped the jade pendant in her arms, and then resolutely put it into Yuan Bao's hand:
"Yuanbao, listen to me, run forward and don't look back."
Yuan Bao grabbed the woman's clothes tightly, his eyes full of fear and reluctance as he said:
"mother"
"Go!" the woman shouted and shook off the girl's hand.
Yuanbao was smart since he was young and understood the pros and cons. He gritted his teeth and ran forward.
Sure enough, when the woman left the protection of the jade pendant.
The blood snakes targeted living people, and after being blocked by the light of the jade pendant, they turned to attack the unprotected woman.
I fought for more time to get the jade pendant.
Yuanbao listened to the sound of flesh being torn behind him, and the screams of the woman who finally couldn't hold back any longer. He didn't dare to look back, but just kept running with his head covered.
"If only this were a dream"
"Yuanxia, take a good rest, I will sing a song for you."
Yuanbao suddenly opened her eyes, only to find the woman looking at her with a smile, holding her hand, and humming a song gently.
Jiang He looked at the girl's eyebrows gradually relaxing, and even the corners of her lips curled up sweetly, and finally stopped humming with satisfaction.
He was tone-deaf and couldn't sing any lullabies.
I just picked a children's song from my previous life to hum.
He was a little worried before whether singing could help the child sleep.
But it seems that the effect is still good.
He gently pulled his hand away, but found that the girl had intertwined her fingers with his without him noticing, and was holding him tightly.
After pulling her hand away with great effort, the girl frowned uneasily again.
She had no choice but to put the corner of the quilt back into the girl's hand, replacing Jiang He's hand, and then her expression relaxed.
The ground began to shake again, and the sound of spells clashing could be heard in the distance.
Such a powerful momentum could only be produced by the fight between Ming Zhenren and the Great Elder from Dongfang City.
Don't know what happened again.
Jiang He glanced at the girl who was still sleeping. She was still smiling sweetly and didn't seem to be affected by the noise.
I felt relieved and closed the door carefully.
After putting away the jade pendant in his arms, Jiang Heben wanted to put it next to her.
Then he thought that it might be better if he gave the jade pendant to her in person.
Better show your sincerity
Of course, Jiang He actually wanted to see what expression Yuan Xia would have if she saw the jade pendant for the first time.
I came to the street of Nanfang City and looked towards the direction of Dongfang City.
It seemed like the fight lasted only for a moment, and when Jiang He came out, Dongfang City was calm again.
In the dark night, only the blood waves covering the sky are rolling.
And the blue sword energy that was facing him from afar above Qingmu Castle. He always felt that this matter was not that simple.
The Xuanming Sect is invading with a large army. Aren’t the two of them afraid that the Xuanming Sect will reap the benefits?
Jiang He was in a state of confusion. Was it more dangerous to go to the Daze Mountains, where there were many monsters, or to go to the Qingmu City, where there were many treacherous and unpredictable things?
According to what Li Song said, if the individual cultivators gathered together and crossed the Daze Mountains, there shouldn't be much risk.
Jiang He focused his mind and continued to concentrate on refining the essence and blood in the Xuanhuang Pearl.
The refined essence and blood slowly turned into streams of warm heat, flowing along his meridians and penetrating into his limbs and bones.
As he practiced the Rebirth Technique, his skin began to become dull and lifeless, his hair began to fall out, and his entire body was undergoing a complete transformation.
This is the magic of the Rebirth Technique. If it reaches the ninth level, it can reshape the body, remove hidden injuries, and even increase lifespan.
During this process, Jiang He could clearly feel the changes in his body.
His muscles became tougher and stronger, and his bones gradually turned golden.
This is the origin of the title of Golden Body, the first level of the Rebirth Technique.
It’s a pity that the speed of practicing the Rebirth Technique is indeed very fast, but it also means that a huge amount of essence and blood is required.
Especially the ninth level, although it has the magical effect of reshaping the body, it requires more blood and essence than the previous eight levels.
The essence and blood of the Zhao family head that was sucked earlier was only part of the essence and blood of the foundation-building cultivator.
If I could absorb the essence and blood of another foundation-building cultivator now, it should be about the same.
This thought suddenly flashed through Jiang He's mind, but he rejected it in an instant.
If he kills innocent people just to improve his strength, then what is the difference between him and Master Ming?
the next morning,
The streets were bustling with people, including many wandering cultivators who came with their families and heavy luggage.
It looked like he had just arrived in Nanfang City from somewhere else.
Could it be that Xifang City was also taken over by the Xuanming Sect?
Jiang He stood aside, watching the scene quietly.
His eyes moved through the crowd and finally locked onto a casual cultivator carrying luggage.
The man was walking hurriedly, but was suddenly stopped by Jiang He, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his face.
When he turned around and saw Jiang He's cultivation level, his expression immediately became respectful.
He bowed his head and humbly asked, "Senior, do you have something to ask me?"
Jiang He glanced at the increasing number of independent cultivators in Nanfang City and said puzzledly:
"Why are there so many people in Nanfang City?"
The casual cultivator sighed:
"What other reason could there be? I originally lived in Xifang City, but Xifang City was also being attacked by Xuanming Sect, and it would be lost sooner or later. I was worried about the people in the Demon Sect, so I came to Nanfang City. I heard that someone here organized independent cultivators to work together to cross the Daze Mountains and leave Qingmu City together."
Nanfang City is surrounded by the Chenyan Mountains, with only two exits, one is Aoki Castle and the other is Dongfang City.
At present, both exits are difficult to pass.
The only way to leave is to pass through Chenyan Mountains and then enter Daze Mountains.
This is also the reason why Nanfang City has not been attacked by the Xuanming Sect.
Although there is a Jindan monster in the Chenyan Mountains, given the area of the Chenyan Mountains, there will be no danger as long as you are careful to avoid it.
The wandering cultivator suddenly pointed to the distance:
"That's the independent cultivator who organized this operation. I heard that he will set off tomorrow. I rushed here in a hurry."
Jiang He looked in the direction he was pointing and was surprised to find that the person was actually Tang Ge.
This person has a close relationship with Xuanming Sect and hides unknown secrets.
He was not surprised that Tangge did not die in Dongfang City.
