Chapter 149 Dry Valley Road
Chapter 149 Dry Valley Road
"Where is this...?"
After Ye Qi woke up from his coma, his memory of the time in the tomb was a little vague. He only remembered the impression of a fight and some monsters that were neither human nor ghost.
When he rubbed his eyes and looked around carefully, he found that the scenery here had changed drastically. He could not recognize where he was at all. The cliffs on both sides were extremely high, and the cracks in the soil on the ground were everywhere like spider webs. But from the soil quality, it can be seen that this should be a riverbed, but it looks like it has been dry for more than a year or two!
Just after Ye Qi woke up, a flying stone suddenly came towards him at a high speed. Ye Qi subconsciously waved his hand, and a sword energy shot out from his finger, intercepting the flying stone with great precision.
"Spiritual power? No, it's dead spiritual energy!"
Ye Qi withdrew his palm, lowered his head slightly and gazed at it, feeling the Qi Sea and Snow Mountain in his body. He was very confused. Suddenly, he found that the undead energy in his body had increased so much. What happened in that vague memory?
Although he was very confused about this, he knew clearly that the undead energy in his body had reached saturation and overflowed. Although he didn't know what caused him not to explode and die, he could not tolerate any more undead energy. This meant that if he could not solve the problem of undead energy in his body as soon as possible, he would explode and die!
Thinking of this, Ye Qi couldn't help but feel a little scared, and the person who attacked him didn't show up. But what he was sure of was that his every move was under the surveillance of others. Fortunately, there was plenty of undead energy in his body, so he could protect himself without worries. But now he had lost his way and could only grope his way. He had to take things as they came!
"Ye Qi!" Suddenly a mysterious female voice came from the depths of the river.
"who are you?"
"Ye Qi! Come here quickly!"
There was no reply from the owner of the voice. He only heard her calling him and wanting him to continue walking deeper. Ye Qi suddenly felt uneasy and shouted towards the deserted dry riverbed: "Who are you?"
"Miss Jingshu's life now depends on your thoughts. Come here quickly!"
When Ye Qi heard that the man actually threatened Shu'er's life, no matter what his intention was, it had touched his bottom line. If he didn't meet him, he would really feel uneasy. So he took out the Yixi sword, grasped the hilt, and walked forward carefully and vigilantly in a defensive posture!
When he came to a three-way intersection, he was suddenly confused. He could roughly determine the direction of the man, but he couldn't tell the specific direction of the three roads in front of him. Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly saw a very small footprint on the dry and cracked road on the right. If you don't look carefully, it is really difficult to find!
But I'm curious, why isn't this girl wearing shoes? A small, delicate foot and five toes are clearly visible. It seems this girl is quite a ruthless person. Even wearing shoes on such a scorching ground is unbearable, yet she doesn't even mind the heat!
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the forbidden area? Capture him!"
Just as Ye Qi was about to move forward, a voice stopped him in his tracks. Upon closer inspection, he saw a few monsters that looked neither human nor demon. They had lizard heads and human bodies, but their eyes were extremely deep. In their hands, they held a trident made of unknown material!
"Wait a minute! I..."
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Before Ye Qi finished speaking, those monsters let out fierce screams, and then they were attacked by a group of flowers and leaves. They were seriously injured and fell to the ground. However, the person who attacked them also left them a glimmer of hope. But judging from the situation, it would take them a year or two to recover!
"What a delay! Hurry up!"
After the group of monsters fell to the ground, suddenly a slim woman stepped lightly on the air with her jade feet, and her figure stood in the air. But if you look closely, you can find a blooming peach-pink lotus under her feet. Every step she takes gives birth to a lotus!
"You are...Sister Li Li?"
Although the woman was wearing a veil and intentionally trying to avoid being identified, her figure and temperament made him feel exactly the same as the feeling Li Li had given him at the Danhuang Sect Square!
"Hmm!" The woman snorted and nodded in response.
"Sister Li Li, have you avenged your great hatred?"
Ye Qi then flew on his sword and came to Li Li's side, which scared her. The restrictions here were so severe that even a Jindan-stage cultivator like him couldn't ignore them, but he was able to fly on his sword. He was quite capable!
"What grudge?"
"Aren't you going to hunt down that heartless guy who hurt you? Why do you have time to hang out here?"
Ye Qi spread his hands, looking nonchalant. In front of her, he showed no sign of vigilance at all, and actually had some inexplicable trust in her!
"I'm not just wandering around. Do you know what's hidden in the forbidden land that the dragons talk about?"
"Dragon? Are there really dragons in this world? Aren't dragons the legendary gods that transcend the three realms?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qi's eyes widened in surprise. A dignified God Clan was merely a servant guarding a so-called forbidden area. What on earth was hidden within this forbidden area? Just revealing it would be enough to shock the entire mortal world!
"Sister Li Li! Please don't be so depressed. If you are really short of money, I still have some. It should be enough for you and your baby to have enough to eat!"
"Look how scared you are! Inside that is the one and only Earth Water Spirit Pearl in the world! If I could get it, maybe I could transcend the Golden Core Stage and enter the realm of a true immortal cultivator!"
After hearing this, Ye Qi suddenly became a little timid. After all, knowing the secret of such a rare treasure would be a disaster, and he didn't have the ability to get involved in it. So he quickly got rid of it and said, "With Sister Li Li's strength, I'm afraid she won't need me for anything, right?"
"It's necessary! There's a barrier around the spirit pearl. I tried and almost hurt my unborn child, so I need you to help me get it!"
"So, the life of Shu'er that Sister Li Li mentioned earlier is also related to this Water Spirit Pearl?"
"If you don't obey me, her life will be at stake. However, once I obtain the Water Spirit Pearl, I can try to heal her soul injury. Cooperation is a win-win situation. You should have no reason to refuse!"
Li Li's seemingly innocent smile made Ye Qi feel a faint hatred in his heart. She used Shu'er to threaten him. It turned out that beautiful women were cruel. No wonder she was abandoned by men.
It was true that everything had its cause and effect, but he didn't reveal his inner thoughts. He smiled awkwardly and replied, "Sister Li Li is not an outsider. If you refuse even such a small favor, wouldn't that hurt our relationship?"
