Tao Zang Xuan Zhi

The fruit looked to be about the size of Licht's palm and bigger than Zhong Wanling's face. As for why it's not good, it's because of its weird shape. It looks like a human heart, but is wrapped in long yellow grass blades. With a dark face, Zhong Wanling quietly pushed aside the grass blades filled with the sweet and sweet juice, revealing the fruits inside. It is a crystal clear, translucent, bright red fruit. The shape is really similar to a heart, and even has dark red vein-like patterns.

Zhong Wanling had a dark face and secretly raised her eyes to glance at Licht, who was looking at her with a smile.

"Isn't this the heart of some strange demon? Licht smiled lovingly."It's not like I haven't eaten the demon's internal organs for you. What are you afraid of?""

Zhong Wanling felt that her scalp was going to explode. This demon was definitely doing some observation experiment on her!

Licht had no intention of continuing to tease Zhong Wanling, so he pushed the fruit in front of Zhong Wanling, raised his feet, and said leisurely:" Don't worry, it's not internal organs this time"

"I don't want to teach you the language of demons anymore, it's too much trouble. I happened to find this thing nearby. If you eat this, you will naturally be able to communicate with demons verbally. Moreover, this thing can also dehumanize you and make you look like a demon. It’s very convenient for me to take you out for a walk."

Zhong Wanling said in her heart, this is pretty good. So, she picked up the fruit and started to eat it.

Zhong Wanling was in a soul body now, so it was impossible to really eat it. She just held the fruit to her mouth, opened her mouth wide and sucked it hard, and the fruit looked like Like a marshmallow that has been peeled off, it was stripped into fine streams of essence, which slid into her body according to her breath. Although

Zhong Wanling didn't know the specific taste, he could sense some taste. The fruit didn't taste bad, it could even be said to be delicious. , as sweet as syrup, but with a refreshing fragrance.

Zhong Wanling was"eating" the love meal with relish, while Licht said in a wicked way:"Actually, you can get it The biggest contributor to this fruit is yourself."

Zhong Wanling is too lazy to pay attention to him. During this time together, she has already understood this devil who loves to tease people. The most effective countermeasure is that when this guy wants to act like a devil again, don't answer the phone. If you don't answer, He won’t fall for it.

Licht also saw what Zhong Wanling was thinking, and he continued with great interest:"This kind of fruit. It's called 'Snake Fruit', and it's said to be the fruit that tempted the first humans to fall in the Western Continent. Because eating it can make people understand the words of life that were previously incomprehensible, this fruit is also called the fruit of wisdom. However, this is actually a very cherished fruit. I don’t know what those people in the Western Continent thought. They actually used ordinary apples as snake fruits. They were really stupid. It is actually impossible to obtain it in the human world. After all, it is a plant that grows from the corpse of a special demon and bears fruit. By the way, although it is sweet and delicious, it is highly poisonous"

"Cough cough cough!"If Zhong Wanling hadn't been in a spiritual body, he might have choked to death because of these words.

"Don't worry, these poisons are only effective on monsters with physical bodies, and have no effect on you, a little guy who only has a soul body."Licht still smiled heartlessly.

Zhong Wanling thought to himself, it's not just this problem, brother.

"Oh, by the way, this fruit grew from the corpse of the snake mother you killed the day you first arrived."

Zhong Wanling thought to herself: What kind of snake mother did you just kill? How could she, a mere little Zhou Tianfan cultivator, be able to kill the monsters in the Demon Realm? Return the snake mother? She only saw one snake in total.

Licht held his chin and looked at it with a smile. Zhong Wanling wore a dark face."That snake is the Snake Mother, or the orthodox descendant of the Snake Mother clan."

Zhong Wanling argued:"You're talking nonsense, it's clearly just a two-headed giant dark-scaled anaconda!

Licht sneered:"How can a mere two-headed demon anaconda be compared with the snake mother clan?" Counting the Snake Mother clan, they are also descendants of gods. Have you heard of Nuwa?"

Zhong Wanling covered her mouth and held the snake fruit with a complicated expression. It's neither eating nor not eating. She really didn't have the time to deal with this evil-minded devil and said:"How could you not know. Nuwa was one of the first gods to create humans and mend the sky."

"Then you know, Nuwa is not actually the name of a god, butA racial name?"

Zhong Wanling thought about it and found that there are indeed similar statements in some books.

"However, the Nuwa clan no longer exists. Whether it is the fairy world, the demon world, or the human world, the Nuwa clan has disappeared from the three realms."

That's true. But Zhong Wanling became confused again."If the Nuwa tribe is not a god as you said, but a race, it is impossible for them to all perish in the patching of the sky. Since they were once so powerful that they were revered as gods, what could possibly destroy them? Licht's smile became meaningful."

There are many ways to destroy in this world." Some are due to making enemies, some are due to weakness, some are destroyed overnight due to bad luck and natural disasters, some are gradually dying out due to accumulated weakness over generations, some are due to excessive evolution and loss of balance in some aspects, and some are degenerated and mutated due to failure in decision-making.……"Speaking of this, Licht's eyes suddenly dimmed for a moment, but it was fleeting.

"The way this world continues is not only evolution and improvement, but also degradation. In both the fairy and demon worlds, degeneration seems to be more common than evolution among racial groups."Licht's smile carried his usual sarcasm, and his fingers playfully stirred the black tea in the cup, like a vicious bystander.

"The Snake Mother clan is the degenerate mutation of the Nuwa clan. It's a pity that not only have they lost the bloodline of the gods, they have also degraded extremely seriously over thousands of years. Now there are only a few who can transform their upper bodies into human form.

Ironically, even in the Demon Realm, the Snake Mother clan is still a radical group that pursues evolution and is obsessed with cultivation. They devoured spiritual beings, captured humans, and reproduced uncontrollably. As a result, they could only give birth to increasingly inhuman objects. The more children you have, the worse the quality will be, and the worse the quality will be, the more you need to have more children, as if a few more children can give birth to children who can return to the glory of the Nuwa clan. As everyone knows, this is simply gambling in a box with no winning lottery tickets. They are just constantly consuming their racial capital needlessly."

This demon has never been so cruel when it comes to mocking. Thinking of the giant snake with a human face that day, and hearing the origin again, Zhong Wanling couldn't help but sigh.

"Are you sympathizing with the snake mother?"

Zhong Wanling shook his head. Even if it is like Licht said, if it chooses to take action, it is equivalent to rolling the dice. Whether it is life or death, it is willing to admit defeat.

Licht smiled with satisfaction:"This That's right. The law of the jungle is the way to survive in this world."

Zhong Wanling was noncommittal.

"Eat it quickly, this thing is considered a rare item. It must have grown on the corpse of the snake mother clan, which is not easy to do." Licht urged.

When Zhong Wanling thought of the ugly and terrifying appearance of the snake that attacked her, even though she knew the fruit was delicious, she still couldn't bear to eat it.

Licht seemed to be sure that Zhong Wanling would definitely eat it. The same thing happened, he didn't care, he just drank tea casually and talked about other things."You are considered a celebrity now. On the first day of the invasion of the Demon Realm, he went on a killing spree, killing more than a hundred high-level demons including the Snake Mother and Hell Lizard, and escaped unscathed. His whereabouts and identity are still a mystery. Oops, as a lord, I have a weak defense and poor tracking, so I bothered the king to send a message in person to question and lecture me, which is really rude."

However, there was no hint of repentance or regret in this demonic tone.

Zhong Wanling was already accustomed to Licht's usual cynicism. He didn't even bother to roll his eyes. He calmed down and began to"digest" the snake fruit.

Licht also Without saying any more, he watched with a smile as Zhong Wanling slowly"eated" the snake fruit with a confused look on his face.

After finally finishing the whole snake fruit, Zhong Wanling breathed a sigh of relief and retorted:"First, those more than a hundred I didn't kill the monster, nor did I kill the mother snake. They killed each other, so what does it have to do with me? Secondly, wasn't it your fault that your whereabouts and identity became a mystery? It's even more impossible for me to be responsible for this."

Licht just smiled and said nothing.

Zhong Wanling was embarrassed by him. This guy has a lot of bad ideas. When he smiles, you can't guess whether he wants to help you or kill you.

"what?"

"how do you feel?"

These days, regardless of the taste, most of the food Licht brings is stuff with abundant energy and spiritual energy. It's not surprising that Licht asked this question.

When Zhong Wanling ate, he was focused on suppressing the origin of this fruit. Due to the nausea caused by it, Zhong Wanling did not pay attention to the spirit.

Zhong Wanling had a little luck and recalled it, and gradually showed a puzzled expression. When she ate it, she did feel that the fruit contained rich essence, but these essences did not It did not flow to her limbs and bones like other foods, integrating with her body. Instead, it adhered to her spiritual veins like a net, but it was very subtle and did not seem to affect the absorption of essence or the use of spiritual energy. , but it felt very strange.

Licht saw that her expression was different, but he was not in a hurry. He drank black tea and said slowly:"This snake fruit, in addition to allowing people to understand the voice of the underworld, is also known as the fruit of wisdom. It has another name, did you know?"

Zhong Wanling squinted his eyes and waited warily for the next step.

"Another name for it is the Fruit of the Fall."Licht said with a smile:"Actually, most of this name comes from the fairy world, for two reasons: one is because it is a fruit grown from the corpses of descendants of the fallen gods;" Licht paused meaningfully, and his eyes flashed. Squinting, like a cunning fox,"The second reason is that after eating this fruit, a layer of evil energy will settle in the body. Although there is almost no sense of existence, it will not infuse people with evil energy and make people fall, but when When they try to break through the realm, they will find that this layer of demonic energy is like a powerful barrier, isolating them before the next realm."

Zhong Wanling was horrified. Being unable to break through to the next level is equivalent to cutting off the path of cultivation. For cultivators, this is a life-threatening matter. Zhong Wanling wanted to vomit immediately, but she was a soul body, so even if she wanted to vomit, No way to vomit

"you!"

A bitter coldness slowly spread from Zhong Wanling's chest and slowly soaked into his limbs."Why are you doing this!"

"Don't be so nervous, my little Wanlan. Licht comforted him,"It's a restraint, but it's not permanent. You will break through it one day.""

That's nice to say. She is a human being and not a monster. If she doesn't break through the golden elixir, how can she have such a long life to wait for"one day"? Zhong Wanling cursed in her heart. Being unable to break through the upper realm is a taboo for qi refiners, regardless of Is she cultivating immortals or cultivating demons? She really didn’t understand why Licht, who had always helped her and protected her, wanted to stifle her path of cultivation.

Zhong Wanling finally couldn’t bear it anymore, and rushed forward with a strong step, fiercely pulling Licht’s arms. Collar.

However, Licht held Zhong Wanling's hand smoothly, took her into his arms forcefully but not roughly, and said softly in her ear:"I said, I will never hurt you. You should believe me more. Demons are different from those hypocritical immortals. Demons are the ones who care about commitments and contracts."

Zhong Wanling was angry and sad. She tried hard to break free from Licht's shackles, but was unable to do anything.

Licht hugged Zhong Wanling, gently stroked her stiff and trembling back due to anger, and gently whispered:"Don't worry, now this Layers of restraint are good for you."Zhong Wanling, who was full of grief and anger, could not hear these words. Licht held her in his arms and said patiently:"You should know that once the golden elixir is formed, the scale of the Qi Sea will be finalized. You are very talented but too young. It's not good for you if it rises too fast."

Zhong Wanling calmed down a little, with red eyes, looking at Licht blankly.

Licht gently patted Zhong Wanling's cheek and smiled softly:"Slow down a little, accumulate more experience, you will At the best age and in the best condition, we welcome the golden elixir. By that time, your Qi sea and spiritual power will be unmatched by immortal cultivators of the same realm."
