Going against the will of heaven, summoning strange beasts, abandoning her daughter, she is addicted

"You really are here!" The clone retreated dozens of meters away, but the water elemental caught up again in the next moment, even faster than her.

However, the clone can use spatial power to teleport, so no matter how fast the water elemental is, it can't predict her next move and can only follow her closely.

In this way, the clone still found an opening to break through.

Phoenix flames poured into the Blood-Drinking Blade, and as the Water Elemental pressed against his face once more, the clone hastily used all its divine power to plunge the Blood-Drinking Blade deep into his body.

In his prime, even Phoenix Flame could injure him, let alone now that he's severely injured.

The moment the Blood-Drinking Blade pierced his body, the raging phoenix flames instantly ignited his entire body, evaporating all his moisture!

"Die!" the clone shouted with all its might.

Even his toes were straining.

It's clear that she really wanted the Water Man to die.

"No!!" The water elemental tried to escape, but it was completely enveloped by the bubble barrier of its clones, leaving it nowhere to run!

There's no escaping it!

"Damn it, why hasn't your strength diminished at all!?"

The water spirit couldn't understand it at all.

Ruan Yu's main body is almost dead, so logically, the strength of her clone should have plummeted.

That's precisely why he risked staying. He wanted to wait and see what would happen, but little did he know, the other side was no weak rabbit at all.

It was a ferocious tiger that he simply couldn't resist!

"Save that question for the next life!" The clone poured all the remaining divine power into the Blood-Drinking Blade, gripped the dagger tightly, and stabbed fiercely at the water elemental's entire body.

She didn't know where the Water Elemental's weakness was, but if she inflicted enough damage, it could still be fatal.

Before long, the water-man's body could no longer solidify, turning into a puddle of water that splashed onto the ground.

The clone keenly sensed a faint water-attribute power separating from the puddle on the ground. "Phoenix Fire!"

In an instant, the brilliant flames, emitting a faint golden light, engulfed it.

There were no further abnormalities.

After killing the water elemental, I thought the sacrificial killing array would also disappear. But it's still there!

impossible?

The clone diligently searched the memories in the main body's mind. Killing the one who set up the array would make the sacrificial killing array disappear, right?

Could it be that the Water Man didn't die?!

But he was clearly already dead! Dead beyond any doubt?

"Master, you look terrible. Wasn't the Water Man already killed? Why are you still so worried?" The shadow appeared and asked with concern.

The clone shared its earlier conjecture.

"Huh? If he's still alive, that's really troublesome, but that's probably impossible. Once the Phoenix Flame appears, he's definitely immortal."

The clone was awakened by the shadow's words: "That's right! Phoenix Flame is immortal! Under those circumstances, the Water Elemental couldn't possibly have survived!"

Unless, of course, it possesses some kind of resurrection technique. Or perhaps... there's an even bigger culprit behind the Water Elemental!

If it's the former, then the risk factor is relatively lower. The latter... who knows what terrible trouble you might encounter!

"Never mind, let's recover some strength first." The clone shook her head, not wanting to think about the problem anymore. She found a large, flat rock to sit on and began to regulate her breathing.

Thanks to Ruan Yu, she, like Ruan Yu, could automatically absorb divine power into her body and become part of it, as long as she had divine power around her.

But now, she has transferred half of the life force to the Wood Spirit Pearl, which has not only made her physical condition worse, but also made her recovery speed much slower.

It took the clone a full half hour to recover seventy or eighty percent of its divine power.

That's enough; I can absorb a little more along the way.

The clone stood up. "Let's find the easiest spiritual herb to find first... Hmm... The names of those spiritual herbs all sound quite rare."

So, the clone chose the medicinal herb with the shortest name among them—the snake moss flower.

My memory of snakeskin flowers is very limited, consisting of only one image.

It's a tiny flower, about the size of a human thumbnail. In the sunlight, it shimmers with tiny points of light, like snake scales.

As for where snake sedge grows and what kind of environment it prefers?

They knew nothing about it.

"Shadow, do you know about snake sedge?"

Shadow racked his brains but couldn't recall any memory of the snake-like flower: "No, what is this? A flower? Judging from the name, it can't be a good flower."

The clone's eyelids twitched violently a few times, and she knew that asking the shadow was pointless.

"Alright, that's none of your business. Go play somewhere else."

“Master, I feel that you are very different now than before.” Shadow would never have dared to speak so freely with Ruan Yu before.

He didn't know why, but he felt no fear in the face of the current "Ruan Yu".

Could it be that after he surrendered, his master treated him as one of his own, hence the gentle treatment?

Little did the shadow know that the person before it was not Ruan Yu herself, but an avatar.

The oath of loyalty he swore has no effect on his alter ego. Since they are neither master nor servant, what reverence do they have?

However, the clone could never tell the shadow these words: "Was I too kind? How dare you talk to me like that now?"

In a single sentence, the shadow was brought back to its original form.

Got it!

The master is as terrifying as ever!

He shouldn't have had any hope!

"I'll take my leave now." The shadow retreated into the shadows, looking dejected.

The clone then focused intently on searching for snake-like flowers in the beast forest. Although it wasn't certain if it would be found, it was always good to get started.

Snake moss flower, snake moss flower, does it live up to its name and like to grow near snakes?

The clone released its psychic power and carefully searched the snake dens in the mountains and forests, and actually found one.

There were only a few people surrounding the snake pit.

"What should we do? Xiaoyue has been dragged into the snake pit for so long, she must be dying soon. You guys go down and save her!" The clone arrived near the snake pit.

Then, among those people, a delicate-looking little girl was heard crying loudly.

The others looked extremely grim upon hearing this: "Our cultivation levels aren't even at the god level. If we go down into the snake pit, is there any chance we can survive?"

"That's right! You can't risk all of our lives for Xiaoyue's sake!"

The frail little girl cried even harder: "Then, then are we just supposed to watch helplessly... and do nothing?"

"That's easy. You're the strongest among us, and it was your suggestion to go down and rescue them. Why don't you go down and rescue them yourself?" The voice arrived before the person did.

The little girl's crying stopped abruptly, and the next second, a strong gust of wind pushed her into the snake pit!
