Chapter 193 Transformation
Chapter 193 Transformation
Liu Jun listened quietly to Ao Si for a long time, like a friend who had known each other for many years, and the branches behind him never shrank back to the ground.
"It really is stupid."
Liu Jun gazed into the distance and spoke softly.
I just don't know if it's talking about the person in the story, or about them.
To repay a debt of gratitude, the two little demons' hard-won little home was torn apart.
As a person of the divine realm, one should avoid acting on emotions, especially when holding such an important position.
Anyone can, but he can't.
But his conscience got the better of him, and he let so many defeated people go. It was inevitable that he would be captured by the Divine Realm.
But what could she laugh at him for? She had done the same thing, and she had been punished as well.
An endless punishment.
(Heaven punishes you!!!)
She was punished tens of thousands of years ago, and now she is merely clinging to life.
"Boom! Boom!"
Several loud thuds came from afar, startling a flock of birds into flight. It seemed that the energy between heaven and earth was also gathering in that one place, gradually increasing in speed.
Several unfamiliar auras suddenly flew rapidly from all directions towards this place, as if they had discovered the birth of some rare treasure, and the forest immediately became turbulent.
The old tree spirit, which was hiding in the ground, was so startled that it jumped out and looked around frantically.
"Lord Aoko, what's going on!"
Unlike him, Ao Si was not panicked. She calmly turned her head to look at the unmoved Liu Jun: "Is that the guy you brought?"
Liu Jun rested his chin on his hand, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever, but rather a hint of amusement as he chuckled lightly:
"Probably. Judging from this setup, it seems like the transformation is almost complete."
"Aren't you going to keep an eye on them? Those humans won't let this opportunity pass by, and besides..."
Ao Si looked towards the horizon: "There are quite a few humans who have come, and some of them are quite strong."
Liu Jun still seemed unconcerned: "Then how do you think they compare to me?"
Ao Si turned his gaze back to Liu Jun, as if he had considered it for a moment: "I cannot see through you, so I do not know."
He was quite composed. Liu Jun chuckled, raised his hand to brush his face, and his appearance instantly changed. He then turned to look at the old tree spirit behind him.
"Go and warn the monsters and spirits in the forest that those who don't want to be affected should find a cave to hide in, or they will have to bear the consequences."
The old tree spirit was stunned for a moment before bowing in thanks and disappearing underground without saying another word.
The chaotic and unfamiliar atmosphere grew closer—or rather, some of them had already arrived at that place and were investigating the situation.
Looking at the light emitted by the triggered magic array in the distance, Liu Jun asked calmly, "And you, is it alright for you to stay here?"
Ao Si gave a rare sneer, and a hint of desolation seemed to appear in his red eyes: "It doesn't matter, no human can see me except you."
Liu Jun remained silent for a while, looking at Ao Si's almost transparent appearance.
Millions of years of consumption and self-torture have turned his physical body to ashes, leaving only this boundless obsession to torment him in the world.
But why can she see him?
Liu Jun probably knew this as well.
The light from the magic circle grew stronger and stronger. Liu Jun knew it was time to leave. He stood up, straightened his clothes, and took out a square box, handing it to Ao Si.
"Here, these seeds of the Ashoka flower are a thank you gift for listening to your story. As long as you plant them, they will bloom every year, no matter where you plant them."
Ao Si stared blankly at the square box for a long while before finally reaching out to take it.
"Worry-Free Flower, what a beautiful name, thank you, I will plant it carefully."
Liu Jun looked in that direction and stood there for a while before disappearing from the spot.
The ferret beside me groggily woke up from its sleep and let out a long yawn.
Ao Si handed the opened box to the red sable, sharing it with a tone that seemed quite pleased:
"Look, a human gave me a box of Ashoka flower seeds. Although I don't know what Ashoka flowers look like, just hearing the name tells me they must be very beautiful."
"Let's go pick a good spot to plant it, and we'll see it bloom next year."
"This place is so boring, I can't even see a small flower. I'll be able to see something new next year."
Next year, we'll see the Ashoka flowers bloom.
……
"Why is this broken magic array so hard to open?!"
"Give it your all, there's something good waiting for us inside!"
"Luckily we arrived early. If we had been any later, those old monsters would have come, and we wouldn't have even had a sip of soup."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work!"
"Uh... Am I the only one who thinks this magic circle was set up intentionally? What if it was set up by some powerful being..."
There was a moment of silence, and everyone looked at the person who had spoken last.
"Why think so much? There are no old monsters here, so let's just treat it as wild!"
"It's rare to see a celestial beast appear in the world. First come, first served, who cares!"
There are indeed very few mythical beasts on the Yuanzhou Continent; you can count them on your fingers.
Immortal beasts are extremely weak when they first appear in the world, or when demon beasts transform into immortal beasts. That's why people want to try their luck and maybe they'll get lucky and form a contract with one.
The energy was still flowing, indicating that the immortal beast had not yet taken shape. More and more people joined the team to break the formation, and even a few Nascent Soul stage figures who arrived late joined in.
Breaking the formation is only the first step. The second step is to eliminate all the threatening people present, except for your own.
Mythical beasts are extremely rare and precious; no one would not want to possess one, and some would even go so far as to eliminate their own people. It all comes down to who has the darkest heart.
"Snapped"
A clear cracking sound rang out, and everyone present tensed up, their guard up, and they took out everything that could increase speed, ready to use it.
"Well, not bad. You opened the magic array I set up in such a short time."
A powerful voice emanated from within, silencing all those outside who were about to act.
A figure stood floating in the air, holding a celestial sword. There was nothing around her, nor did she reveal any level of cultivation, yet the aura she exuded was enough to chill one to the bone.
Behind her, a demonic beast was undergoing a metamorphosis, enveloped in shimmering light. Outside the light, a protective barrier ensured the beast's successful transformation.
Anyone who gets within 100 meters will be executed!
Liu Jun coldly watched as more and more people gathered outside, even more than when the secret realm opened.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen people in the Nascent Soul stage, and two old immortals in the Mahayana stage also came.
To see such a person in such a small place, someone you would never normally see, is something only the birth of a mythical beast could create.
"You also know that divine beasts are rare in the world, and that this is a desolate place. Why then do you occupy it alone?"
The white-haired old man standing at the forefront of the crowd spoke slowly, testing the other party's weight.
"Hmph, a celestial beast has descended upon the world. The capable shall claim it. If you have the guts, come and snatch it!"
Another old man spoke up: "Hey, what you say is wrong. Everyone knows that a mythical beast can only be subdued when it is at its weakest. If we miss the opportunity in our fight, it will be difficult to subdue it again."
Liu Jun scoffed disdainfully, "It already belongs to me, why would I need to make another contract? I'm just keeping an eye out for anyone causing trouble."
"Since it belongs to you, why didn't you advance within the sect to ensure its survival instead of coming to this desolate place? Please don't be ridiculous."
"what!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the immortal sword in that person's hand flew out of his hand and flew to some place. A scream was heard, and the immortal sword flew back into that person's hand, with a fresh blood still hanging on the sword.
Liu Jun coldly looked at the immortal sword in his hand: "Is anyone else coming?"
Those who were secretly plotting and trying to take advantage of the situation immediately stopped, wondering whether they should still sneak over.
"Arrogant! Old Han, why waste words with this little girl? I think she's just bluffing. We'll settle things after we've dealt with her!"
"Alright, you little brats, if you don't want to die, don't do anything stupid. It's not so easy to pick up the pieces of our two old men."
Unexpectedly, even if one of them manages to acquire a divine beast by chance, they could still kill and rob it.
The two old fogies talked and talked, completely disregarding everyone present. They even started talking about how to divide the celestial beasts, as if everything was under their control.
Liu Jun waited quietly for them to finish speaking and for them to step into that area.
As a person, one must be trustworthy. Within a hundred meters, one must be within a hundred meters, not even a fraction off.
