Chapter 398
This time, the clone could no longer transfer the damage, and his head would not recover. He seemed to stagger a step, then fell headfirst into the lake, and blood quickly spread across the lake.
At the same time, wounds no longer appeared out of thin air on his body, and the injuries of his original body should no longer be transmitted to him.
"Success!"
Yu Xi cried out in joy, but unfortunately Song Yangtian and the mermaid were both unconscious at the moment and unable to respond.
Seeing his sister happy, Jizhi also laughed foolishly. He came over and picked up Yu Xi who fell into the water, and let Yu Xi ride on his shoulders and walk around.
"My sister is amazing!"
He praised his sister as he walked.
Yu Xi smiled and leaned on Ji Zhi's head and said, "It's not all my credit. The merman, Song Yangtian, and brother, you are all great contributors!"
Thinking of something, she slowly raised her sore arm and stared at the bell on her wrist in a daze.
Just now she clearly felt someone touching her head, and the bell rang in response.
Is Yu Ruoquan's consciousness hidden in the bell?
Yu Xi did not know the "mother" who created her body, and only heard from others that she was very powerful.
But just hearing the name, she already felt a sense of closeness.
"Thank you for helping me."
She closed her eyes and gently pressed her cheek against the bell.
The bells rang as if in response.
Yu Xi quickly opened his eyes and looked down at the people who were soaking in the water.
Now that the barrier is gone, she can encounter these people.
I was just about to release my magic energy to try and make them float up.
Who would have thought that spiritual energy suddenly surged around the clone as it was slowly sinking into the water. The spiritual energy hit the lake surface like raindrops, filling the entire lake with ripples.
Ji Zhi and Yu Xi looked over warily at the same time, only to see that the clone's body was constantly becoming more spiritual.
All the scattered spiritual energy sank to the bottom of the water, shuttled between the people at the bottom of the water, and lifted them up.
When all the people under the water floated to the surface of the lake, the spiritual energy briefly lingered in the air for a moment before dissipating and disappearing.
What do you mean?
Yu Xi was stunned. He didn't expect that the clone would actually help the people underwater in the end.
If you think about it carefully, Chu Xiao has been practicing for quite some time, at least a thousand years. The cultivators at that time should not have been as corrupt as they are today.
Could it be that Chu Xiao had turned all of his past righteous heart into clones, and then sealed them here to divert harm from him?
However, the clone had already dissipated and disappeared at this time, and Yu Xi's thoughts were just guesses and would never get an answer.
All of the people who floated to the surface had human bodies and fish tails, with fish gills on both sides of their faces.
Are these people all mermaids?
Yu Xi looked at them in surprise, but soon discovered that these people's fish tails did not match their bodies.
Looking again, you can see that where the human body has fish characteristics, circles of spells are engraved.
How could this be a mermaid!
All of these people are the product of humans and mermaids spliced together!
The runes transfer the damage to the human body, and the mermaid's water proficiency can trap people underwater for a long time without dying.
No wonder everyone’s upper body is swollen but their lower body fishtails are normal. The word “beastly” is not enough to describe the actions of people like Chu Xiao!
Yu Xi was so angry that she was shaking. Ji Zhi raised his hand clumsily and patted Yu Xi's hand lightly, trying to comfort her.
Yu Xi touched Jizhi's head to indicate that everything was fine. At this time, the entire lake was floating with these people.
She was just about to ask Jizhi to take her closer to see if there was any way to reduce the swelling of these people so that they could live normally, but she soon discovered that these people could not breathe after coming to the surface of the water.
She hurriedly tried to get these people back underwater, but none of them wanted to go back into the water and only wanted to suffocate to death on the surface.
At least they died in the air they once lived in.
The air was cold and heavy, and water drops turned into ice. Jizhi and Yu Xi stood quietly in the middle of the lake, surrounded by floating, swollen corpses that filled the surface of the lake.
The crazy, silent and suffocating scene displays real pain and despair.
"Sister doesn't want to watch."
Ji Zhi clumsily raised his hand and tried to cover Yu Xi's eyes.
Yu Xi only held onto Ji Zhi's hand, lowering his ears and tail. After a long moment, he sighed softly, gathering a flame in his hand and said,
"Let's see them off."
"I come."
I heard a sound in front of me, and it seemed that the mermaid had woken up at some point.
Because a lot of his blood and flesh were absorbed by the magic weapon, coupled with the original injuries on his body, his mental state was really bad at the moment, and his blue eyes were full of bloodshot.
He stared at the fish tails of the corpses in a trance, took up the fire that he feared the most, and ignited the lake.
"These people are all good candidates for cultivating immortality."
Yu Xi stared at the fire, feeling a tightness in his chest, and murmured softly, "I'm afraid most of them come from those who have ascended to immortality."
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the cultivators once said that the Immortal Gate Conference was a lie and that many people would die.
A fish's tail can be used many times, but a human's tail needs to be replaced every hundred years.
Now that the Immortal Gate Conference is over, those who are seeking to ascend to immortality have probably already begun to enter the Chongshan Mountains, preparing to ascend.
To stop them.
As Yu Xi had the thought, the talisman paper she had previously peeled off from the chain seemed to sense her emotions and jumped out from between her wrists. The two pointed ends folded forward, then twisted into a sharp shape and pointed in a certain direction.
"You want to let me pass?"
Yu Xi pointed at himself.
The talisman paper made a nodding gesture similar to that of a human, except that it had no hands, otherwise it would have put its hands on its waist.
Yu Xi couldn't help but marvel at the talisman paper. It was indeed made by Yu Ruquan. Even the talisman paper had spirituality.
Yu Xi hurriedly asked Ji Zhi to follow the direction indicated by the talisman paper.
The mermaid originally wanted to follow, but as soon as he took a step, he fell forward. If Yu Xi hadn't caught him with magic power, he would have hit his head on the ground.
"Why don't you just stay here for now?"
She looked at the mermaid helplessly.
The mermaid also realized that she couldn't go anywhere at the moment. Although she was a little reluctant, she still nodded.
Jizhi was very proud at this moment and even made a face at the mermaid.
The robbers can't touch my sister, my sister is safe!
When Ji Zhi happily turned around with Yu Xi, the mermaid's voice of thanks came from behind:
"Thank you."
Yu Xi turned around and saw the merman looking at her and saying, "Thank you for killing Chu Xiao's clone."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xi's fox eyes slightly curved, and he folded his ears. He replied seriously: "You are my brother's friend, you don't need to thank me. This is what I should do."
The merman opened his eyes slightly, then smiled with his eyes curved, "Brother Wen Yu, it's really enviable to have a sister as good as you. By the way, my name is Qingpei, do you want to call me brother too?"
Jizhi: ???
Before Yu Xi could reply, Ji Zhi glared at her faster than lightning.
I was careless. My sister the robber can’t move her body, but her mouth can still move!
Thinking of this, he lifted his sister up with both hands, then dived down and knocked Qingpei away headfirst.
Qingpei:!!!
He flew out, and before he could say anything, his eyes rolled back and he was knocked unconscious.
Jizhi laughed out loud.
He is really smart. The robber sister was knocked unconscious and couldn't speak!
Yu Xi: “…”
