"Corpse Demon Demon Forest?" What is that? Liu Ruyan was taken aback; she had never heard of this name before, and Long Chen and the others were also stunned.
"You don't know where you're from?" Lingxi asked curiously.
Liu Ruyan shook her head: "When I was still a seed and gradually had memories, I was passed around and passed around."
In the end, I was abandoned in the spirit realm, where I grew up. As for anything else, I knew nothing. At
this point, a slight chill appeared in Liu Ruyan's eyes. This was a source of anxiety in her heart. She had always thought she had been abandoned, so her heart was filled with resentment and she had no feelings for the whole world.
In her life, she regarded Chu Yao as her only family. She spoke very little, appearing so withdrawn and out of place in this world.
"So is the environment you grew up in a battlefield filled with countless beings, buried underground and buried?" Ling Xi asked.
Liu Ruyan was taken aback, then nodded. There was an ancient battlefield in the Spirit Realm, with countless bones, just as Ling Xi had said.
"That's right. Beings from the Corpse Demon Demon Forest need to absorb corpse demon energy to grow quickly. Have you been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time?" The body can never transform, right? Ling Xi asked.
"Yes, could it be ..." Liu Ruyan suddenly understood something.
"Long Chen, this person comes from the Corpse Demon Forest. It's extremely dangerous. If she cultivates here,
Endless corpse demon energy had accumulated here. After absorbing it, she would undergo her first transformation, becoming exceptionally powerful, and probably uncontrollable. Ling Xi transmitted to Long Chen, her voice heavy and carrying a warning tone.
Long Chen himself was startled, realizing Liu Ruyan's background was terrifying—even Ling Xi was wary of her.
"No need to control her. She's not my subordinate; she's my partner. I trust her." Long Chen replied.
Lingxi wanted to say something more, but after hesitating, she swallowed her words back.
"Senior Lingxi, could you tell me what the Corpse Demon Demon Forest is and where it is? If I get the chance, I'd like to go back and see for myself. Liu Ruyan said.
Chu Yao held Liu Ruyan's hand and nodded, because she could tell she was a bit excited.
Liu Ruyan never communicated with others, but she opened up to Chu Yao and kept no secrets from her.
Before meeting Chu Yao, Liu Ruyan's heart was filled with cruelty and loneliness, and she was filled with hatred. She didn't know who her parents were, nor why she had to be so heartless as to abandon them.
Within her soul's inheritance, there are vague memories. She knows she has parents, but she has been coldly abandoned.
She wandered through several cold places and was eventually thrown into the spirit realm. The tree demons there didn't recognize her and even bullied her when she was weak.
Once she became strong, she began her quest for revenge. In the spirit realm, she had always been lonely, and the most terrifying part was that she didn't know how long she would be lonely.
Later, she was trapped by Long Chen and given to Chu Yao by him. It was Chu Yao who changed her; she could feel the kindness deep within Chu Yao's soul and was willing to follow her for life.
It can be said that only Chu Yao knew Liu Ruyan's secret, and she had always kept it for her, never even telling Long Chen.
Liu Ruyan feared loneliness, but her stubbornness and pride prevented her from showing it. Perhaps because of this, she refused to communicate with others.
But Chu Yao knew that Liu Ruyan still had a wish in her heart: that one day she could find her biological parents. Whether it was searching for her family or seeking revenge, Chu Yao herself couldn't say.
So when Lingxi said Liu Ruyan came from the Corpse Demon Demon Forest, she suddenly became excited. Chu Yao held her hand, trying to calm her down a bit.
"The Corpse Demon Demon Forest is not in this realm. If you want to go there, you have to cultivate diligently, break through barriers, and enter another level.
The Corpse Demon Forest is a place of great calamity, where corpses, demons, and monsters converge, filled with violence and slaughter.
As wood-element beings, to be honest, we don't like them there. In our philosophy, they distort the true meaning of life, so we don't like them either.
I'm a bit sorry for saying this, and you might get angry, but I think I should still speak my mind. Lingxi looked at Liu Ruyan and said apologetically.
Lingxi always spoke with gentle elegance and politeness; her dislike might be understood as a form of hostility.
Perhaps because of this, Lingxi sent a message to Long Chen, warning him to be careful of Liu Ruyan.
"Thank you, senior." Liu Ruyan bowed and expressed her gratitude to Ling Xi.
As for Ling Xi's dislike of the Corpse Demon Demon Forest, it didn't affect her, because she had no sense of belonging to it; she only wanted to know her own origins.
After speaking, Liu Ruyan and Chu Yao continued walking outward. The closer they got to the world's barrier, the stronger the power of the Heavenly Dao.
"Buzz!" Finally,
countless wooden pillars emerged from Chu Yao's body, forming a cocoon. Countless runes lit up on the cocoon, absorbing some kind of power.
Liu Ruyan also transformed into a wooden cocoon, but this cocoon was pitch black all over, covered with countless patterns like colorful centipedes—fierce and terrifying, its aura sending shivers down one's spine.
"This ..."
Mengqi, Tang Wan'er, Ziyan, and the others were all shocked. Liu Ruyan's aura suddenly turned cold and unsettling.
"The Star Domain Divine Realm is a land of turbid yin, with too much death energy because the dark river blocks it, making it impossible to disperse.
She came from the Corpse Demon Demon Forest and was born to cultivate by absorbing turbid yin energy. For her, this place was truly in her element. Ling Xi explained.
"Lingxi, don't worry. No one is absolutely kind, nor is there absolute evil. No matter how evil a person is, they have a kind side.
As long as her kind side leans toward ours, she's my partner. And as I've said, I'm not a good person myself.
Whoever treats me badly, I treat them badly. As for right and wrong, in the face of life, I can only settle for second best because I want to live. Long Chen shrugged and said.
Lingxi nodded and said, "I believe the inheritor of the Nine Stars can't be wrong. Perhaps only a successor can suppress such an evil fiend." "
Rumble rumble ..."
As she spoke, the giant cocoon belonging to Liu Ruyan suddenly grew larger, instantly covering tens of thousands of miles of void. Eight long legs pierced into the void, resembling a giant spider.
"Buzz buzz buzz... The
void roared and exploded, endless black mist spreading. Even the leaves of the mother tree were stained with black mist, slowly forming spots. The huge leaves began to wither and then fall off.
Long Chen and the others opened their mouths wide. Ling Xi said, "She had already accumulated enough primordial power, but what she lacked was turbid yin energy. Now, she has built up her strength and made a breakthrough. Now that she's got the chance, she's about to begin her transformation and soar to new heights."
After completing this transformation, her combat power will become even more terrifying—noThe legacy of the Death Nether Willow clan will begin its initial awakening.
By then, she would become extremely powerful, at least not inferior to anyone from previous battles. Ling
Xi emphasized "any one," which shocked Long Chen and the others. Doesn't this mean that after awakening, Liu Ruyan will reach Long Chen's height?
"That's a good thing. The stronger she is, the happier we are. It's good to rest under a big tree. Hehe, looks like I'll have to be more polite when speaking to Ruyan from now on." Long Chen chuckled.
"Ruyan really hates you, so be careful she deals with you." Tang Wan'er said with schadenfreude.
They all knew that Liu Ruyan was deeply resentful of Long Chen's suppression of her back then, and would deliberately argue with him for no reason. In this regard, she was actually a petty woman.
After laughing, Tang Wan'er began her cultivation. To avoid being affected by Liu Ruyan, she was sent to a much farther place, where wind blades swirled around her as she began communicating with the world's barrier.
Just as Lingxi had said, the Heavenly Dao within the world's barrier encompasses all the Heavenly Daos of the entire world, and every kind of power is present. Soon, Tang Wan'er found her own wind elemental law and began to comprehend, verify, and absorb it.
The vision behind Tang Wan'er was expanded. She was very clever, using the laws here to deduce the changes in her vision, allowing her to become familiar with her vision and the laws of the Heavenly Dao more quickly. This would help her control the power of the wind, unleashing maximum power with minimal force.
Ye Zhiqiu also went there. As soon as she arrived, she was completely covered in ice and snow, with most of the void frozen in place, making it impossible to see what was happening on her side.
Moreover, Ye Zhiqiu's ice power was terrifying, forcing the mother tree to keep a certain distance from her. Even Lingxi looked in surprise at Ye Zhiqiu's location, deep in thought.
Mengqi also walked over. Suddenly, her soul power stirred violently, and the entire treetop was instantly covered in dreamlike colors, making everything seem unreal.
"The soul power here is ...," Mengqi hadn't expected much. After all, she was a soul cultivator, so she shouldn't belong to the Heavenly Dao.
But when she approached the world barrier, her vision was naturally opened, instantly covering the entire tree crown. Even she was stunned.
"I really can't imagine that you can resonate with the souls of the world. Everything in the world has a soul, and even the Star Domain Divine Realm has its own soul.
You truly have deep fortune, able to resonate with the souls of the Star Domain Divine Realm. Your future achievements will surely be limitless. Lingxi's face was full of admiration. Among these people, each one was so terrifying that she was deeply shocked.
"Xiaoyu, you should go too... Huh... Where is he? "Long Chen was startled. Dongming Yu had just been by his side, and now he was suddenly gone.
"She was the first to integrate into the world's barrier. Before I could introduce her, she had already started. Besides, I don't even know where she is. Such a terrifying stealth technique." Lingxi smiled and said. The first person to notice her unusual was Dongming Jade. Perhaps because she was an assassin, she was overly sensitive to her environment.
The first thing they did upon arriving here was to scout the surroundings, but they vanished in an instant. Everyone was stunned by the shocking sight before them, not knowing when Dongming Yu had disappeared.
"Lingxi, can we all come up?" Long Chen said happily, this wonderful place was definitely worth sharing.
"Of course you can. It's fine if everyone comes up." Lingxi said with a smile.
"Haha, Zifeng is really lucky. His swordsmanship will definitely improve greatly." Long Chen was overjoyed; the first thing he thought of was Yue Zifeng, a man with limitless potential.
"He came here for no reason." Ling Xi suddenly said.
"What?" Long Chen was startled.
