Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 744 Dharma Protector
Since the monsters in the north were still wreaking havoc, the two did not fight for too long.

Yan Yu spent an entire night carefully memorizing all of Anna's physical characteristics. The next evening, the two of them secretly left Amur City and headed north, flying towards the vast frozen land of ice and snow.

The northern border was vast, with many uninhabited areas. To completely conceal their tracks, the two men completely avoided towns and villages, ultimately arriving at a mountain range.

According to Anna, there used to be mines in this mountain range, so many mining tunnels were built. Later, because the shallow minerals were mined out and deep development was not cost-effective, it was completely abandoned.

There was also a mining town at the entrance of the valley, but it became deserted as the mine itself was abandoned, and now it has completely become a ghost town.

Anna planned to create confusion here. She took out a straw doll from her bosom and placed it in a building in the center of the town, and then set many traps around it.

Yan Yu watched her solemnly arrange various measures and asked puzzledly:
"We haven't been discovered by anyone along the way. How can you be sure that an intruder will find this place?"

"It's simple." Anna smiled mysteriously and whispered, "It's precisely because we concealed our whereabouts that we were able to confirm that no one was witnessed. So if anyone found this place, they must have used occult methods."

"Mysticism..." Yan Yu, who knew nothing about occultism, speculated and asked, "So you are using occult methods to set up bait?"

"That's not the case." Anna said with a smile, "Kiss me and I'll tell you."

Yan Yu looked somewhat helpless. He didn't have to find out, but he knew that if he said, "Then I don't want to know," the golden retriever would be furious and angry.

She would begin her tribulation that evening, and a witch's tribulation would test her mental state, so in order not to affect her mood, Yan Yu could only give her a kiss.

This is not an ordinary kiss, this is a kiss for peace between Lu Kingdom and the Northern Territory!

Anna happily explained, having successfully fulfilled her wish:

"It's simple. In the field of mysticism, clothing worn long-term is closely connected to the body. So I put the clothes I wore for the past nine months here. If someone tries to locate it through divination or other means, they will most likely find it here first."

"The traps I've set up around here, some of which are extremely lethal and difficult to set up, will make them believe even more that this is the real place where I'm going to transcend the tribulation. This is the first layer of disguise."

"When they try their best to break through these killing moves, but only find the clothes I left behind, they will immediately realize that they have been deceived and subconsciously believe that my real body is not there at all. This is the second disguise."

"The mine we're going to later is located beneath this town. It's over 700 meters deep, with numerous routes extending in all directions. The total length is at least 2 kilometers. This is the third level of camouflage."

"If they manage to break through these three layers of disguise and eventually reach my ritual location, I'll have no choice but to rely on you to protect me."

"Yeah." Yan Yu said that he probably understood it. "So I was right. This is indeed a bait arranged by mystic means."

"Yes." Anna admitted frankly.

"But you just said no." Yan Yu said.

"Why else would you take the bait and kiss me?" Anna laughed.

Her laughter stopped abruptly, and she was soon held down by the angry Yan Yu and beaten severely.

"Hmph." Half an hour later, Anna put her golden hair back into a bun and picked up the clothes on the ground. "It's all sweaty and dirty."

"Put them all in your bait box," Yan Yu suggested. "They're freshly scented, so they're powerful. What if the enemy's method of finding you involves smell?"

"That's too disgusting." Anna immediately threw it into the box with disgust.

After arranging the remaining measures, the two flew out of Kong Town and turned into the mountains.

Just as Anna said, the entrance to the mine is extremely hidden. Once you enter, you go all the way down, and the depth and length are astonishing. It is the best place to avoid enemies and survive tribulations.

To put it bluntly, even if the enemy found the entrance to the mine at the beginning, it would be impossible to complete the exploration within a few hours.

In a room somewhere at the bottom of the mine, Anna arranged the remaining measures and then began to take off her clothes.

If you are still wearing clothes, when it melts into a ball of flesh, the flesh and blood may stick to the clothes.

Yan Yu sat cross-legged beside her, staring at her slowly, and finally corrected it with his own memory data.

The bust... the bust... well, it's exactly the same as I remember.

Haha, my memory is really amazing!

"Shall I start then?" Anna asked, putting one hand on her waist and looking at Yan Yu for a while.

"Don't worry, you can adjust your mood." Yan Yu said, "Get through the tribulation in the best condition."

"I'm sure I'm in my best condition right now," Anna said. "If I wait any longer, I'll get nervous."

She finally blew a kiss to Yan Yu, then slowly sat down, hugged her legs with her hands, and slowly closed her eyes.

The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Yan Yu sat beside Anna and saw her curled up in a ball, her bright golden hair spread out over her fair back like a sunflower in full bloom.

Bloom, then begin to wither.

The abnormality started from her shoulder blades. At first, large beads of sweat appeared, and then gradually turned into a wet area.

It seemed normal at this point, but Yan Yu immediately noticed that her back was slightly deformed.

The flesh melted first, like a slightly deformed snowman in the sun, collapsing more and more over time, revealing the faint, curved outline of the spine. The spine also bent more and more, like a roll of absorbent paper under a heavy load. Yan Yu's gaze shifted slightly upwards, and he saw that her head had completely lost its facial features, and the pale skull was exposed, which was a bit chilling.

To be honest, if Yan Yu had to choose, he would rather endure a more severe thunder tribulation than play "I am ice cream" like the witch.

Anna's head finally separated from her torso and fell into the fluffy meat sauce below. Her beautiful golden hair also fell off from her scalp one by one, like withered and scattered straw, which was a bit regrettable to see.

If he wasn't afraid of affecting her tribulation, Yan Yu really wanted to get one as a souvenir.

Anna finally melted completely, even her golden hair dissolving into the flesh and blood. Then, the flesh began to wriggle at a snail's pace, like a growing fungus blanket, eventually transforming into a round ball of flesh.

Yan Yu calmly took out his cell phone, turned it to silent mode, turned off the camera, and took a photo of the chubby version of Anna as a souvenir.

Then the spiritual consciousness scanned the meat ball.

The flesh ball was composed of numerous cells, connected by countless extremely pure magic energies, forming a shape resembling a tree branch. The closer to the center, the denser the magic beams became. The energy density in the very center was extremely high, comparable to the golden elixir in a cultivator's dantian. This must be the abode of Anna's soul.

The previous melting of the flesh seemed to have caused great harm to Anna's soul, so the light in the center of the flesh ball flowed extremely slowly, as if licking its own wounds.

Yan Yu didn't know when she would start to reconstruct her body and differentiate her organs, so he simply took out his cell phone to play.

Holy shit, there's no satellite internet signal in this place! What a blunder!
Fortunately, Yan Yu had other plans. While fighting Anna yesterday, considering she loved role-playing, he'd recorded some amusing, plot-oriented videos: a convenience store manager catching a thief, a prosecutor interrogating a mortal, a nurse tending to a patient, and so on. It was a perfect time to take them out and enjoy them now, then delete them completely before returning to Lu Country.

The meatball has no eyes or ears, so there's no need to worry that playing the video here will affect her tribulation. Yan Yu admired the video for a moment and felt that his acting skills were truly amazing, while Anna's acting talent was much worse. When she played the villain, she just laughed evilly, and when she played the victim, she just whimpered. They were all monotonous and boring stereotypes!

Only her face and figure are worth seeing... Oh, forget it.

After watching and deleting the videos one by one, Yan Yu scanned the meatball with his spiritual sense again and finally found that Anna began to move.

The first thing to condense is the heart.

The human heart relies on myocardial beating to generate pressure, and valves to ensure unidirectional blood flow. The witch's new body, composed of pure magic, resulted in a smaller heart, but stronger muscles. The valve structure appeared flawless at first glance, but even the finer details were beyond the reach of divine sense, forcing her to believe that the magic itself possessed a will.

It took about 20 minutes to complete the condensed heart, and then it began to beat vigorously, pumping tissue fluid and magic power around the meat ball.

Yan Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly heard a muffled sound from above.

Although the sound was very soft, with his hearing and perception as a seasoned mortal warrior, how could he not hear that someone was on the surface directly above? Most likely, they had triggered the trap Anna had left there.

Someone actually found this place!
In her previous life, the Eclipse Queen successfully overcame the calamity and there was no news of any accidents happening to her (of course, it was more likely that Lu Guo did not find out), so Yan Yu felt that she was probably safe - and was also shocked when something unexpected happened at this moment.

The next part of the body the meatball reconstructed was the lungs. Humans use their lungs to exchange gases with the outside world, and witches were no exception. After their bodies were reconstructed, witches no longer relied on oxygen for energy, so their lungs were used to absorb the magic in the air.

Yan Yu scanned carefully with his spiritual sense, and found that the lung lobes, bronchi... all structures were differentiated normally, and there seemed to be no problems.

The noise of fighting came from above again, this time it was much more intense than before. It was obvious that the enemy was not killed in the previous wave of traps, and was still advancing stubbornly towards the center of the house.

Several possibilities flashed through my mind: a traitor within the witch coven? A restless gang member? Or an external force with ulterior motives?
In any case, as a Jindan cultivator, if I stay here and these villains can still interfere with Anna's tribulation, it would be better for me to retire and live in seclusion.

Yan Yu stood up from where he was and first took out the defensive magic weapon Taiqing Yuanqi Yanlan. Without touching the central meat ball, he quickly sealed the space around Anna tightly.

No matter how many attacks fall into the Taiqing Yuanqi mist, they will be delayed or even blocked, which can buy a lot of time for Yan Yu to take action - the heavenly tribulation also proves the value of this magic weapon.

Then, he took out the Liangyi Microdust Sword, ready to launch the sword formation at any time.

The Liang Yi Micro Dust Sword Qi is instantaneous and can teleport to the target location regardless of spatial distance. It is the best way to quickly kill a large number of enemies.

Then, Yan Yu shook his sleeves and summoned the puppet Ah Zhen again.

After Ah Zhen appeared, he left the tribulation room without saying a word and went to the corridor outside to guard it.

Yan Yu's consciousness was focused on Anna's reconstruction, so it was difficult for him to be distracted to scan and monitor the outside world. However, the puppet Ah Zhen had its own will, and Yan Yu's split consciousness was the host, so it was perfect for him to watch over her from outside.

After completing these three steps, Yan Yu continued to observe the flesh ball. As the complex bronchial structure was differentiated, the flesh ball quickly reconstructed the main trachea and connected it to the top of the flesh ball.

The head should be located next there.

However, the skull was the most delicate location; after condensation, the soul would be transferred to the brain. Also, since vision and hearing would return to normal after the brain was fully reconstructed, making the person more susceptible to external interference, Anna boldly placed this step last.

Before this, all dangers from the outside world would have to be dealt with by Yan Yu. As Anna had said before, she had almost absolute confidence that Yan Yu would protect her.

On the other hand, a certain wicked woman is always suspicious. Look at Anna! Although her mind may not be as broad as yours, her heart is much broader!

After concentrating the heart and lung functions, the meatball then began to condense the liver and kidneys. These two organs are used for detoxification and can also ensure the purity of magic power, so they cannot be taken lightly.

Yan Yu used his spiritual sense to continuously scan the meat ball and found that although her reconstruction speed was slower this time, it was still accurate and stable, so he secretly felt relieved.

Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard from above, causing the entire room to tremble.

It was obvious that the group on the surface had used some powerful means!
Yan Yu quickly scanned Anna again, and found that her reconstruction process had indeed stopped, as if she was hesitating - she had no perception of the outside world at this time, and could only judge from the vibrations of external forces that something must have happened outside.

"Don't be afraid." Yan Yu reacted very quickly and immediately realized that Anna was being disturbed by the outside world. "I'll take care of everything. Focus on overcoming the tribulation!"
