Chapter 164 Leaving the Demon Realm
Chapter 164 Leaving the Demon Realm
Liu Jun just wanted to find a hiding place through the gap as soon as possible.
The gaps are only of different sizes. The large ones can accommodate an army of ten thousand men, while the small ones are only the size of a ring. The only gaps that can be seen at a glance are the small ones.
But she can find a way to get through even the smallest gap, as long as she can find it.
Liu Jun raised his hand again and released dozens of strands of tangible spiritual power, driving them throughout the room to search for openings by overturning pots and smashing iron.
The things, which were already a jumbled mess but were still somewhat organized, became scattered like a burglary after this search.
The dark room was large, but Liu Jun's ability to find things was also remarkable. Before long, he found a hiding place behind a bag of highly poisonous herbs. He only found it after using his spiritual power to overturn it.
Without saying a word, Liu Jun withdrew his released spiritual power and walked over there. He saw that it was indeed a very small opening, but it was about the size of an egg.
It was as if a bug had popped up in the world, tearing open an irregular circle in the void, with only a mass of white visible inside.
It's like a blank sheet of paper, or a vast, empty void, drawing people in inexplicably and making them want to plunge into it.
Liu Jun took out the small black box he had made when he brought Mo Xianghuan out of the secret realm from his storage ring and placed it in his hand. He took one last look at the mess on the ground and the various potions that were lying on the ground and were hard to identify. He casually threw the black box into the gap and instantly flashed into the box.
In a flash, Liu Jun entered the box.
There was nothing special inside the box, just a square space of about ten square meters, empty of anything, where you could breathe freely, without any abnormalities, and you wouldn't faint.
Liu Jun silently counted to ten, then took out a mid-grade immortal sword that he had used a few times for self-defense before reciting an incantation and flying out of the box again.
However, in less than two breaths, the surrounding scenery changed from a dimly lit basement to... some unknown lake, no, it's the sea =????(??? ????)?
The little black box was still floating on the surface of the sea when Liu Jun came out and immediately sank to the bottom of the sea with a "plop".
She paused for two seconds before reacting, then quickly added a protective shield to herself and flew out of the sea to retrieve the small black box. She then threw out her leaf-shaped flying device, sat on it, and rested for a while before she had a chance to observe her surroundings.
She's clearly a fire element person, so why does she seem to have such a strong affinity with water? She's fallen into the water so many times.
However, once she left the Demon Realm, the spiritual power within her body, which had been suppressed by demonic energy, became active again. Unsurprisingly, the missing spiritual power was completely replenished to a perfect state, and the "automatic power bank" was still very effective.
This vast ocean appears to be an endless expanse of water, with only the gentle waves stirred up by the sea breeze, and nothing else.
Looking up again, there wasn't a single white cloud in the sky; it was an endless clear sky, and the sun was high in the sky, shining so brightly it made people feel dizzy.
Having already seen the sun in the Fengye Mountains, Liu Jun was not particularly excited to see the sun in the outside world again.
After conveniently patching up the small gap that had been created, thus eliminating any worries, he habitually used his divine sense to scan the surroundings for a place to settle down, and soon received feedback.
Four or five hundred miles to the west, I could sense a piece of land. The sea is truly vast; it's so far before I can see any land.
Without saying a word, Liu Jun drove the leaf-shaped flying machine towards that direction, and it took him nearly half an hour to reach his destination after traveling hundreds of miles.
Liu Jun could have gone even faster, but thinking that she could also take the opportunity to recuperate, she didn't go any faster. After all, she had lived in the Demon Realm for several months, and she was still a little unaccustomed to the outside world where spiritual energy was everywhere when she returned.
Once on land, Liu Jun had mostly adjusted. He put away the flying vehicle and jumped onto the ground. After stomping on the ground a few more times, Liu Jun felt a surge of joy. However, the surrounding scenery was quite unfamiliar, and he had no idea where he had landed.
Thinking about it, Liu Jun suddenly seemed to remember something and looked through his mind's eye. As expected, he found a small "golden pill" among a pile of bottles and jars. With a thought, he took it out.
"What exactly do you want me to do...?"
Liu Jun murmured softly, holding the "golden pill" in her hand. She wondered what was the reason that she had repeatedly fallen to other places and obtained such a golden pill.
The Golden Elixir had both visible and invisible effects on her body, and it was these invisible effects that were the real problem.
The mysteries surrounding her are only getting bigger and bigger...
Liu Jun held the golden pill in his hand and examined it for a long time before finally putting it back into his sea of consciousness. He then released his divine sense again to search for places where people lived.
Once you find the person, it will be easier to ask for directions.
Fortunately, they did find a place inhabited by humans, not far from where they landed, only forty or fifty miles away, and it was a town with the presence of cultivators.
"Thankfully, we didn't fall into another 'other place' again."
Liu Jun then launched his flying device and drove it towards the town. Before long, he arrived at his destination.
Upon first seeing the town, which was quite prosperous and a gathering place for cultivators, Liu Jun suddenly felt a sense of kinship, like meeting a fellow townsman. It was no longer the town where everyone he saw was shrouded in black aura.
"No passage ahead. Newcomers to this place, please gather your belongings and pay the entrance fee before entering the city!"
Even the gatekeeper's announcements sounded so friendly. Liu Jun happily paid ten low-grade spirit stones and entered the town called "Luoshui City".
The lively hawking and the genuine warmth of human presence that greeted me were truly a long-lost experience.
Although Liu Jun was a bit excited, he didn't go completely crazy. He went to a fancy-looking restaurant, booked a private room, ordered a table full of delicious dishes, and ate them all before he finally calmed down.
This is the first time in a long time that I've had such a good appetite to eat all this stuff. If I were to eat it again tomorrow, I probably wouldn't have any appetite at all.
A cultivator's body is not comparable to that of an ordinary person. Even after eating so much, he did not feel particularly full, just like after fasting for a year or two without feeling hungry.
However, Liu Jun himself was surprised that he could eat so much food and still enjoy it. Last time, he had only eaten two or three buns and felt extremely greasy and nauseous.
Hopefully she's right. We'll try again tomorrow and see.
After eating and drinking his fill, Liu Jun leaned against the window and looked outside for a long time until dusk before calling someone in to settle the bill and leave the restaurant. He then went to find an inn, rented a room for five days, and set up a formation around the room before finally sleeping soundly for three days and three nights.
On the fourth day after arriving in Luoshui City, Liu Jun finally woke up in a daze.
Now that she has regained her body, it's somewhat surprising that she can actually fall asleep.
That's right, he fell asleep lying down, not meditating or resting, and he also had the craving for food that he had lost and then regained...
It wasn't until Liu Jun sat on the street and ate two more bowls of wontons filled with spirit beast meat that she was truly certain that her senses as a "human" had returned!
It seems that the effects of that golden elixir are indeed not limited to "possession by a ghost".
The "Golden Elixir" seemed to be making up for some of her flaws, making her body more perfect.
"Sigh... one stack after another, this secret will never be solved..."
She was not only caught up in a novel, but also in a huge conspiracy, with everything in the dark pushing her toward a pre-planned ending.
No one knows what this "ending" is, but that's exactly what she wants to find.
The more she searches, the closer she gets to that so-called ending, and the closer she gets to the truth she wants.
Is she happy to be arranged like this?
"Boss, check out."
Liu Jun easily put down a few spirit stones and then went to explore Luoshui City. If he saw something he liked, he readily paid for it.
Occasionally, when I see a stall selling strange and unusual things, I will stop and take a closer look.
There's nothing wrong with that.
It's at least better than the world she despised.
……
In half a day, Liu Jun had gathered a lot of information.
For example, Luoshui City is located on the border of Lingshui, and is close to the 86 connected islands to the east of Lingshui.
If you walk a thousand or two thousand miles further out from the sea where Liu Jun first fell, you can see those islands.
Lingshan East Island and Faxiang Temple are located among them, and Faxiang Temple is the core sect that governs these eighty-six connected islands.
Liu Jun initially searched for the closest land to her, Luoshui City, and then withdrew her divine sense. It was only after inquiring that she learned there were so many islands overseas.
During the last joint sect competition, she only saw two people from Faxiang Temple. They were clearly Buddhists, and their behavior was full of Buddhist principles and Zen wisdom. Their cultivation was also quite good.
If she didn't have to rush back to help Yan Qifeng repair his dantian, she really would have liked to go and see what was going on.
However, there will be opportunities to go in the future; at most, we can just slow down our trip to Yunhai Bitian to find that person.
Once he was familiar with the area, things became much easier. Liu Jun didn't waste any time; after gathering the information, he packed up and headed to the entrance to the demon realm he had entered and exited before the next day.
