The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

At the edge of the Green Flame Domain, the Bone Demon's empty eye sockets seemed to be burning with a never-extinguished green flame.

He stared at the huge crack in the green flame barrier and the faint breath left by Li Qing when he fled in a panic, and a meaningful sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

This smile was not only a contempt for the escaped prey, but also a cruel preview of the fate that Li Qing was about to face.

Outside the Green Flame Domain, there is not the freedom that Feng Peng imagined, but an even more deadly trap.

Feng Peng is just a chess piece that will soon fall into a bigger chessboard...

When Li Qing took great pains to escape from the seemingly indestructible yet extremely fragile green flame barrier, what he saw was no longer the pitch-black devil's realm.

He seemed to have crossed the cracks in time and space, leaped out of the abyss of hell, and came to a completely different world.

Here, there is no gloom and depression of the Demon Realm. Instead, there is a vast ocean under the blue sky and white clouds, and the familiar yet unfamiliar island under his feet.

On the island, there are flowers and birds singing, and green trees are shady, creating a peaceful and harmonious scene, which is in sharp contrast to the previous demon realm.

Li Qing looked around, and his heart was suddenly filled with complex emotions - from surprise, confusion, and finally turned into an indescribable fear.

He immediately realized that he did not seem to have really escaped, but was pulled into an illusion by the demon that was performing the secret soul technique behind him, a warm fragment in his memory.

But before he could think of a way to deal with it, his mind became confused.

However, Li Qing did not know that while he was trapped in the Green Flame Domain, the domain was actually moving slowly.

Because the surrounding environment was shrouded in green smoke and he was fighting fiercely with the bone demon, he did not notice this tiny abnormality.

The location where the Dharma Domain moved to was exactly the mountain where the giant brain was located.

That brain belongs to a group of demons with a very high status in the clan, called "brain-eating demons". The consciousness of this kind of demons is extremely powerful, and they are especially good at the secret techniques of the soul.

The stone pillars covering the Demon Realm are the formation that can enhance the power of the soul and strengthen the consciousness, and is called the "Divine Mind Weaving Web Formation."

To set up this formation, you need "Jade Soul Essence Stone", which is carved into stone pillars of varying heights. The surface of each stone pillar is engraved with special formation patterns, which contain the power to enhance spiritual awareness and guide spiritual thoughts.

The stone pillars need to be arranged according to the positions of the Big Dipper and the Twenty-Eight Mansions to form an invisible "net of divine thoughts".

A main stone pillar was set up at the core, engraved with the most complex "Gathering Spirits and Guiding Souls Pattern", serving as the center of the entire formation.

When setting up the array, the person in charge needs to use his own blood essence and magic power to activate the array patterns, so that a subtle energy resonance can be formed between the stone pillars, thereby expanding and strengthening the range of the person's spiritual awareness, allowing him to freely launch spiritual attacks within the area covered by the array.

The closer the intruder is to the core "main stone pillar", the stronger the spiritual power he will be subjected to.

This formation was what the Brain Eater had gained in the spirit world...

After a while, when Li Qing came back to his senses, his left hand immediately and subconsciously touched the green feather stuck in his hair.

However, looking at the palace in front of him, he forgot what he was going to do for a moment.

Before Li Qing could think carefully about what was going on, a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Husband, why are you still standing there? Did you bring back the dragon meat that Ning'er asked you to hunt?"

"You are really something. You kept telling Ning'er how delicious dragon meat is, which caused him to keep pestering me for some dragon meat these days."

"The world is full of demons nowadays. If my husband goes out to hunt dragons and something happens to him, how will we live?"

Li Qing looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was an incredibly beautiful lady in a red dress.

Her skin is as white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and her delicate and tempting lips are slightly raised.

Such beauty is like a blooming flower, exuding charming fragrance that makes people intoxicated.

The beauty's expression revealed a hint of resentment while she spoke, which made her look even more charming, causing Li Qing's heart to skip a beat.

Li Qing was attracted by her beauty and was absent-minded for a moment.

However, when he heard the woman call him "husband", his heart was instantly filled with storms.

He stared with wide eyes at the beautiful lady in the red dress in disbelief, his heart filled with confusion and shock.

This title implied a special relationship between them, and this intimate title made him feel both strange and familiar.

He tried hard to recall, but the memories in his mind seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog and were unclear.

Li Qing couldn't help but ask: "Miss, I don't know you, why do you call me husband?"

There was a hint of surprise and confusion in his voice.

The red-dressed lady had a trace of resentment in her eyes, and she said softly, "Husband, don't joke!"

Li Qing frowned and tried hard to recall, but he had no memory of this woman.

He began to wonder if he really had lost his memory or if there was some misunderstanding.

Faced with such a situation, Li Qing was at a loss for a moment.

He didn't know how to respond to this woman who claimed to be his wife, so he could only stand there blankly, his eyes full of doubt and confusion.

The next moment, a memory emerged in Li Qing's mind without warning.

It turns out that the beauty is really his wife, and the world he lives in is a world ruled by demons.

This island is the home where he and his beloved live together. Every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree carries their shared memories and laughter.

However, at this moment, Li Qing felt unprecedented confusion and anxiety.

In his memory, this world has been invaded by demons, and he himself was dragged into this catastrophe for some reason.

Memories of the demons, the battles, and their successful escape to this paradise came flooding back.

Just as Li Qing was immersed in the whirlpool of thoughts, a gentle yet slightly reproachful voice interrupted his meditation.

Turning around, I saw the beautiful woman in the red dress walking towards me. She was very pretty and her expression showed her deep affection for her husband, but also a bit of resentment caused by worry.

The approach of this beauty instantly filled Li Qing's heart with warmth, but what followed were more unsolved mysteries.

"Husband, why are you so absent-minded? Did you encounter any trouble on the road?" The lady's words were full of concern. She gently pulled Li Qing's hand, as if to dispel the haze in his heart.

Li Qing looked at her and smiled softly, "Madam, don't worry. I was just a little tired."

"We have hunted down dragon meat, so let Ning'er enjoy it today."
