Chapter 180 Ruins
"No, why have all these demons come to the north? We've only been away from the capital for three months, and you can count how many powerful demon lords we've encountered already." Ning Xiaoxi felt wronged. "Even the Heavenly Master Pavilion's eight or nine hundred demons probably haven't encountered as many as we've in these three months, have they?"
"That's why I said choosing you was the right decision!" Tuanzi exclaimed excitedly. "This is how we can complete the mission!"
But I'm about to die!
I've taught you advanced skills!
But I'm still stuck in the high-level stage; I can't learn super-level skills yet.
[Almost there, almost there, Xiaoxi, just a few more seconds, the light is in sight!] Tuanzi cheered and encouraged everyone.
"hiss!"
He wanted to raise his hand to punch someone, but it aggravated the injury on his back.
The spirit crystal in his hand slipped onto his knee with a "thud" and remained motionless.
I pulled out a large piece of spirit crystal from behind the dragon vein and placed it beside the bed in the small bedroom. I put the spirit crystal heart on it and finally saw that it no longer looked so broken.
The pink bead doesn't have such a strong attachment to the spirit crystal, and the spirit crystal can't repair it; it can only make the marks inside appear less severe, just like the crack in the jade cabbage—it's not easily repaired. Perhaps, we should try to get some more demonic energy to repair it.
Looking at the spirit crystal mine in the cave, she felt that the consumption had been unusually high recently. If she hadn't taken in the giant dragon, she would have no spirit crystals left to use.
The little mermaid tugged at her sleeve and pointed into the deep darkness.
"What do you want to say?" Ning Xiaoxi looked at the little mermaid's chubby face, reached out and touched it; it felt nice.
"It's still a baby and can't talk." Tuanzi nestled on Ning Xiaoxi's shoulder, watching the little figure with her.
Ning Xiaoxi shook her shoulder, still feeling uncomfortable. "Tuanzi, let me see how badly you're hurt."
Tuanzi climbed down Ning Xiaoxi's shoulder, [Hiss, hiss, hiss!]
[Stop hissing, it hurts again.]
[It hurts just looking at it!] Tuanzi crawled over the tattered cotton clothes, dodging the drifting cotton fibers, and saw the charred whip marks. [Ouch, that's brutal! They really went all out to kill!]
Ning Xiaoxi clenched her fists; she shouldn't have let that dumpling be shown to her.
[There are healing talismans in the advanced talismans, take a look.] Tuanzi hissed enough, finally remembering that the marks didn't just look painful, they really hurt!
Finally receiving a sound suggestion, Ning Xiaoxi quickly rummaged through the high-level talismans, found the healing talisman, and swiftly took out a spirit crystal fragment to inscribe it. The runes flowed smoothly, the spiritual power was abundant, and the healing talisman was completed in no time.
He reached out and handed it to the little mermaid opposite him, then turned around and had it stick to him.
The little mermaid and Ning Xiaoxi were of one mind; the little chubby hand raised and affixed the healing talisman to the whip marks.
The runes flickered, and the black marks were absorbed and extracted by the runes, gradually fading until the spirit crystal turned into dust. The charred whip marks also disappeared, restoring the smooth, white skin.
She shook her shoulder and finally felt no pain. Ning Xiaoxi smiled; this thing was useful. She really needed to develop more of the skills she learned! Learning too much at once, only to find herself knowing nothing about it, would be such a waste!
She took out a set of new cotton-padded clothes and trousers that her mother had made for her from the wardrobe in the small bedroom inside the main hall, changed into them, and tied her hair up with a wooden hairpin. The neat and capable little celestial master made her appearance again.
The little mermaid stared at Ning Xiaoxi with her big, bright eyes.
Ning Xiaoxi even circled around in front of it, slightly raising her chin and looking at the little mermaid with a touch of arrogance.
The little mermaid clapped her chubby hands and laughed.
"let's go!"
The little mermaid turned and walked into the darkness with her short legs.
Ning Xiaoxi carefully examined the place. It seemed as if a transparent dome covered her head and back, blocking out the thick, black seawater. Beneath her feet was dry land, and there was plenty of air, allowing her to breathe normally. But apart from the land beneath her feet, she could see nothing; all around her was darkness.
The little mermaid looked short-legged and took small steps, but she walked very fast and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
Ning Xiaoxi followed, and the little guy was like a light bulb, lighting up wherever he went, illuminating a ten-zhang radius around him.
This section is a dirt road, which gets wider and wider as you go, until you can no longer see the top of the road or the cover you came from.
Walking on the dry, earthen path on the seabed kicks up dust and smells like real soil.
As the little light bulb walked along, a double-leafed door appeared in front of it, a wooden door.
Neither the demon nor the monster on Ning Xiaoxi reacted, which meant it was safe to approach.
Tuanzi perched on Ning Xiaoxi's shoulder, staring wide-eyed at the large door. [A wooden door appeared at the bottom of the sea, perfectly intact?]
It looks like wood.
Ning Xiaoxi reached out and touched the door. [Hiss, it's cold. No, it's icy.]
[Ice Gate?]
She traced the outline of the door with her fingers. The material was indiscernible; there were no decorations, not even a door knocker—just a bare, black surface. If it weren't for the seam in the middle, she would have mistaken it for a wall. Looking up, it was at least three zhang (approximately 10 meters) high! A huge gate standing on a dirt road without even a door frame? It was a bit eerie.
The little mermaid imitated Ning Xiaoxi by touching the gate, then looked up at it. A red light shone from between her brows onto the gate, and a drop of blood seeped out, falling onto the gate along with the red light.
A soft, bluish light illuminated the entire gate from bottom to top.
"Boom!"
The door slowly opened from the crack, but it was still pitch black inside, and nothing could be seen.
The little mermaid stepped inside with cheerful little steps.
Ning Xiaoxi followed it inside, and as soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt the difference; it was no longer a dirt road, but a bluestone road.
The light bulb's function seemed to be suppressed; after entering the gate, it could only illuminate a radius of three zhang (approximately 10 meters) around it.
Ning Xiaoxi glanced around warily, then reached out and picked up the little mermaid.
The little mermaid, suddenly embraced, stared blankly at Ning Xiaoxi's face so close to his own, and the light bulb suddenly shone brighter.
Ning Xiaoxi smiled and bounced the chubby little boy in her arms; he was quite heavy. "What did you bring me here to see?"
He raised his chubby hand and continued forward.
Tuanzi turned to look at the little mermaid. [You really like this little demon pet.]
Ning Xiaoxi rolled her eyes. "We're in sync now. Whatever I tell it to do, it will do. It doesn't have its own thoughts, so I can't say I like it; it's just a tool."
"Yes, demon pets are tools, tools for slaying demons and monsters." Tuanzi exclaimed excitedly.
Following the direction pointed out by the little mermaid's chubby hand, Ning Xiaoxi continued walking for about fifteen minutes until a circular platform appeared. The platform was surrounded by a waist-high railing, and the surroundings remained completely dark.
Ning Xiaoxi walked to the fence, and the light from the little mermaid illuminated the scene in front of her.
As she looked at the object in front of her, Ning Xiaoxi's eyes widened even more!
