“…I’ve heard about this drugs earlier than. It’s a form of medicinal herb referred to as Blood Lotus Fungi1. It has extraordinarily robust non secular energy and is utilized by demons to advertise cultivation. If a traditional immortal have been to take it, the pure immortal vitality inside one’s physique can be repelled, bearing no impact and be utterly undetectable. It’s simply…”
Ah Tao paused for some time, and checked out Ji Chaoyun thoughtfully.
Ji Chaoyun instantly understood the deeper that means in her phrases.
It’s simply that he had a half-immortal and half-demon physique. Therefore, his immortal energy was inherently impure, inflicting him to be stimulated by the Blood Lotus Fungi and shedding management of his demonic energy.
Feng Qi seen one thing. “This individual… is aware of his physique very nicely?”
“That’s proper,” agreed Ah Tao. “Though this little gongzi is half-immortal and half-demon, he hides it very nicely. If it wasn’t for the heart beat analysis, I wouldn’t have even seen it. However the one who prescribed the drugs appears to know gongzi very nicely, even his weaknesses, therefore utilizing the Blood Lotus Fungi in the long run.”
Ji Chaoyun’s eyes trembled. He requested, “Blood Lotus Fungi… The place can one discover it?”
”Almost unattainable to search out.” Ah Tao shook her head. “Blood Lotus Fungi is extraordinarily tough to domesticate, and requires a big provide of magical vitality to develop. As soon as the supply of provide is misplaced, it can die inside three days. Apart from on the Demon Realm’s soil, there’s nowhere else the Blood Lotus Fungi can develop.”
“Demon Realm?” Feng Qi requested with a frown. “You imply, somebody introduced the Blood Lotus Fungi out of the Demon Realm? How is that this doable?”
“Certainly, how may this be doable…” Ah Tao tapped the desk together with her fingertips, and mentioned softly, “300 years in the past, the demons had launched an aggressive invasion and had virtually conquered the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Realm was pressured to plead to the gods for assist. Thus they got here into the world and fought a tough battle with the demons. The demons have been defeated, and utterly sealed away. Thereafter, not one demon may take half a step out of their realm.”
“…It’s been 300 years. How may the Blood Lotus Fungi abruptly seem within the Immortal Realm?”
The ambiance within the room abruptly turned solemn, and solely Ji Chaoyun was sitting quietly on the desk. His eyes gazed low, his expression unclear.
After a protracted whereas, Feng Qi opened his mouth, his voice harsh. “Might or not it’s that the seal on the Demon Realm has been loosened?”
Ah Tao raised her head, and there was no humour in her eyes. “If that’s the case, the Immortal Realm will undergo a disaster. I’m afraid none of us might be spared ought to that ever occur.”
As a result of the God’s Realm had been closed 300 years in the past. This time, there can be nobody to assist them.
If that’s the case, it could actually be a disaster.
Feng Qi and Ah Tao stared at one another. After some time, he took out two issues from the storage ring and put them on the desk.
Feng Qi mentioned, “Because you’re educated about this, please assist me discover out if the odor of blood lotus fungi lingers in these two gadgets. “
“Alright.”
Ah Tao put away these two issues, and mentioned, “However what I mentioned simply now’s merely guesswork, it will not be correct. If there may be somebody who is really idle and has nothing to do, it isn’t unattainable to domesticate the Blood Lotus Fungi utilizing a magical artefact. “
Ji Chaoyun abruptly requested, “Are you aware somebody with such a capability?”
Ah Tao clearly didn’t anticipate him to be so eager. Her expression modified slightly as she answered, “There’s a half-demon race within the Sea Market. In the course of the melee, that individual was left within the Immortal Realm and with nowhere to go, he hid within the Anonymous Sea. That man can’t let go of his homeland, and spends all day tinkering with some messy magic instruments and magic arrays. Chances are you’ll discover one thing to realize by discovering him.”
Ah Tao identified a spot for them. Ji Chaoyun stood up and saluted Ah Tao. “Thanks, Girl Ah Tao.”
Ah Tao nodded. The latter rotated and went straight out the door. Feng Qi was about to observe when he heard Ah Tao say behind him, “Your little magnificence doesn’t appear to be a easy individual.”
Feng Qi glanced at Ji Chaoyun who had already walked out of the room, and turned again to Ah Tao with a smug smile. “How’s he? Isn’t the individual I’m interested in quite good?”
Ah Tao snorted with a bitter expression. “Bearing a half demonic and half immortal physique, one ought to higher be cautious. In case you are so unrestrained, are you not afraid that he’ll drain your essence?”
Feng Qi was startled, and the unusual feeling that had been haunting him ever since he’d woken up was lastly vaguely answered.
He solely felt enlightened and smiled. “Thanks, Ah Tao. If there’s a probability one other day, I’ll introduce you to a magnificence.”
“Scram! Laoniang doesn’t want it!”2
Feng Qi smiled, rotated and walked out the door.
The three of them went out of the Luo Huan Constructing and adopted Ah Tao’s steerage to search for the place the place the half-demon lived. On the best way, Feng Qi briefly recounted what Ah Tao mentioned to Jiang Cheng. Whereas he was speaking, he targeted all his consideration on Ji Chaoyun.
Ever since assembly Ah Tao, Ji Chaoyun seemed haunted, seeming to produce other ideas in his thoughts.
After listening to Feng Qi’s phrases, Jiang Cheng contemplated, “So, the one who began it isn’t simply making an attempt to border Ji Chaoyun for dishonest? Then he ought to be… Hey, you useless Phoenix, are you listening to me?!”
Feng Qi seemed away from Ji Chaoyun and requested, “Are you speaking to me?”
Jiang Cheng gritted his tooth in anger, and icily pressured out, “…No. Scram.”
Ji Chaoyun listened to the 2 arguing behind him whereas his ideas drifted away.
Why was it the Demon race?
Has the seal on the Demon Area actually weakened? Or… was there truly another person behind the scene?
“The demons got here nicely ready this time. They know our plan nicely. I believe there could also be internal spies within the Immortal Realm.
The Immortal Realm is at stake, nobody may be trusted. Little Dragon, wait obediently for me within the mortal world. I’ll come again to choose you up after I seal the Demon Realm.”
“…I’ll positively return.”
Ji Chaoyun raised his hand subconsciously. The second he touched the acquainted purse by way of his garments, like lightning, he instantly launched his hand.
This motion was purely instinctive, and he was stunned for a second. Earlier than he may perceive why he did this, a harmful strangeness abruptly flashed in his coronary heart.
Ji Chaoyun took a step and stopped the 2 behind him. “Wait, one thing is just not proper.”
Feng Qi and Jiang Cheng have been at the moment arguing with one another. Listening to his phrases, they stopped and seen one thing unusual. They now reached a distant and slim alley. This alley prolonged in all instructions with many twists and turns. This was the place the half-demon dwelled.
The three of them raised their heads collectively as a number of black-clothed shadows fell from above the roof ridge, surrounding the three of them.
Black garments, lengthy sword on a wet evening.
Ji Chaoyun’s pupils shrank, and his gaze handed over a number of males in black, ending in the back of the alley, the place a faint shadow flashed by.
“I’ll go away these to you each!”
Ji Chaoyun rapidly defined, and with a swing of his sword, its intent ripped open the encirclement. With none hesitation, he flashed into the space.
His sword was too quick, and the boys in black who attacked them had no time to react. As they ready to chase, a slender determine blocked his manner. Feng Qi flicked his golden whip and neatly threw these folks in entrance of Jiang Cheng. Solely then did he look again at Ji Chaoyun’s departing again, a tiny smile in his eyes.
The little dragon didn’t realise that his non secular energy had elevated quite a bit in a single day.
“Fuck, Feng Qi, why are you in a daze. Assist me!” Jiang Cheng shouted angrily, the one one left within the slim alley preventing the enemies.
Feng Qi retracted his gaze, and his tone was unhurried. “I’m injured, so I can’t use pressure. Island Grasp Jiang is robust and superior. Can’t you beat these little bastards?”
Whereas talking, somebody tried to stab Feng Qi. Feng Qi dodged and kicked the individual to the entrance of Jiang Cheng, the 2 virtually colliding head-on.
As Jiang Cheng scolded him, Feng Qi calmly replied, “You struggle first. I’ll discover Chaoyun.”
“You useless Phoenix—”
He ignored Jiang Cheng and turned to chase within the course of Ji Chaoyun.
On the different finish, Ji Chaoyun was chasing after the shadow. He didn’t know what number of corners he had turned earlier than his steps abruptly stopped.
In entrance of him was a home with a courtyard. The outdated door was shut, and it was unattainable to see what was inside. Ji Chaoyun thought of his choices for a second earlier than elevating his hand and pushing open the door. Blood flashed within the courtyard proper then.
The person who was pierced by a sword slumped to the bottom, his unextinguished eyes passing over the person in black earlier than him. He was caught off guard by Ji Chaoyun’s gaze outdoors the higher courtyard door.
The blood on Ji Chaoyun’s face pale, and the reminiscence of his earlier life’s demise made a comeback.
“Heaven’s Realm is already closed, and it can’t be opened in a thousand years. What’s using maintaining the golden phoenix feather? Do you suppose he’ll come again?!”
“Nobody will know even when we kill you now. Hand over the merchandise!”
The bloody, damaged reminiscences lastly merged into a whole scene at this second. Ji Chaoyun raised his head— the previous and the fact overlapping in entrance of him.
The again of the person in black rotated, and a string of blood beads rolled from the sword edge at his ft. Ji Chaoyun lastly noticed without delay— what was hidden beneath the black hood was a pure white masks with solely the eyes displaying.
“…It’s actually you.”
Ji Chaoyun was breathless. His voice was so low that he may hardly hear it.
The person in black didn’t hear what he’d mentioned, and solely smiled softly. “If I have been you, I’d by no means chase somebody alone.”
Ji Chaoyun: “Who’re you?”
“…The one who will kill you.”
As quickly as the person in black completed talking, he raised his sword and made to strike Ji Chaoyun. It was solely then that Ji Chaoyun realised the lengthy sword in his hand was coated by a layer of black mist; he couldn’t see it clearly.
Ji Chaoyun subconsciously retreated. The acquainted sight of the interlaced previous and current left him in a trance, and his actions couldn’t assist however decelerate by half a minute.
The sword edge was coming immediately, it was too late to flee. Ji Chaoyun solely had time to guard his important level, ready to undergo an damage.
