Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

Huang Qiuxia was dumbfounded. She didn't know what was going on.

"Impossible! She clearly said she was going to Qincheng, and Zhong Ran also said he would go to Qincheng. How could she not have been there?"

"Bitch, you dare to deceive our Qin family? You are looking for death!" The middle-aged man was so angry that he was about to raise his hand to slap her to death.

"No, I didn't lie to you. I really saw her."

An instinct for survival made her quickly say, "I know where her mother is. If you capture her and spread the word, she will definitely come to rescue her mother."

The old man looked at her coldly with a gloomy expression: "I'll trust you once more. If you dare to deceive us again, you'll be in trouble."

"lead the way."

Huang Qiuxia was shocked, frightened and angry. Huang Qiuyin and the others clearly said they were going to Qincheng, so why didn't they?

Or have they gone directly to the Holy Land?

But didn't that little bitch Zhong Ran say she was going to Qincheng to find someone? Why didn't she go?

She took people back to the small village to look for Huang's mother, but found nothing again.

After asking the neighbors, I found out that she had left that day and never came back. Huang's mother was worried about her and went out to look for her, but she never came back.

Huang Qiuxia looked ashen, and her mother was missing too?

Why did she feel like everything had changed?

"Bitch, you dare to deceive the Qin family, you are seeking death!"

The old man slapped her heart meridian with his palm and said to the people behind him: "Okay, this bitch will be yours from now on."

After a pause, he said coldly, "Spread the news that Huang Qiuyin's sister and mother have fallen into our hands. Tell her to go to the Qin family if she knows what's best for her."

Although Huang's mother was not found, it did not stop them from making use of the incident.

As for the woman in front of him? If I guessed correctly, she was Huang Qiuyin's sister.

……

Huang Qiuyin followed Zhong Ran and the other three into the mountains for four days, hunting and killing many ferocious beasts along the way.

This was also her first real battle. Her swordsmanship looked superb, but during the battle, she was almost injured several times.

If it weren't for Ah Sheng and others, she would have died in the mouth of the ferocious beast.

She was silent for a long time along the way. She had always known that she was incredibly talented, but she never thought that she was like tofu that would break with the slightest touch.

In the subsequent battles, under Zhong Ran's guidance, she made considerable progress, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.

She felt that her swordsmanship was not as good as her family elders said.

It's clearly a sword technique that only looks good but is useless.

Fortunately, she met Zhong Ran, otherwise, if she was discovered by people from the Huang family or the Qin family, she would not be able to escape, and even people with lower cultivation than her would not be her match.

"It's useless to just stay in the family and practice meditation. You'll just be a flower in a greenhouse."

Zhong Ran knew how she felt, and he felt the same way in his previous life.

"But the world of cultivation is cruel. There are many cases where brothers and sisters turn against each other for resources."

"It's terrifying to be in the cultivation world without actual combat experience."

"Cultivation does not represent strength, and fighting is the best way to improve strength."

"If you want to go higher and further, you need to go through countless baptisms of blood."

Huang Qiuyin nodded heavily: "Ranran, it's a good thing I met you, otherwise..."

Otherwise, she might become a victim of her family, be married into the Qin family, and become the cauldron of some powerful person, just like Yun Luohuan.

"You have now embarked on a different path, a path of no return. If you are not careful, you will be doomed."

Seeing that she had a simple heart, Zhong Ran also felt a desire to cherish her, so he gave her some advice.

"Well, I see."

"Everyone be careful, there's something strange here."

Mu Jinning's reminder interrupted their conversation.

The two looked up and saw a natural partition in front of them.

In front of us was a barren area of ​​about ten meters. On one side, the vegetation was lush, and on the other side, there was a thick and indissoluble black.

Zhong Ran was terrified by what he saw. It felt like he had been swallowed by Zhong Yan.

"Sister Qiuyin, you and Ah Sheng rest here for a while. We'll go take a look ahead."

"Okay, be careful." Huang Qiuyun had never seen such a scene before, especially the thick darkness in front of her, which made her terrified.

Even watching from such a distance, she could feel a strong sense of crisis.

Zhong Ran nodded and walked over with Mu Jinning, and Zhong Yan followed.

Ah Sheng didn't like the life over there, and his sister told him that he didn't have to go, so he didn't go.

As the three of them got closer, they could feel the darkness inside more clearly, and the pressure and crisis it brought to people.

"Boundary!" Mu Jinning observed it for a while before saying, "It's a barrier left over from ancient times. Due to its age, it has weakened somewhat. Perhaps that's why the black mist seeped through it."

Zhong Ran stared at the black fog inside, and it seemed that he had a very familiar feeling within the barrier.

I remembered what Zhong Yan said before about feeling a familiar breath. Could this be the place?

She looked at Mu Jinning, and he said softly: "If I'm not mistaken, this is most likely the place where the demon was once sealed."

Zhong Ran's heart trembled, and he looked at Zhong Yan.

The words of the Imperial Master before his death echoed in her mind again.

"You are all devils! Your biological father is a big devil."

So, are they really the descendants of the devil, which is why they can feel a familiar aura here?

"I don't know how much time has passed. I think the demon is dead. Otherwise, he would have broken free long ago now that the barrier is weakened."

"Ran Ran, the demonic essence inside is rich. Perhaps you can condense the spirit of darkness, which will be beneficial to you."

Mu Jinning turned around and glanced over there before saying softly, "It's just that it's hard for me to get in, so I can only rely on you siblings."

Dark elements, also known as demonic elements, have a corrosive effect that is not something that ordinary people can withstand.

These are real dark elements, different from the demonic elements cultivated by evil practitioners.

Although the demonic energy cultivated by evil cultivators using evil means also has a corrosive effect, it cannot be compared with the real dark element.

Not to mention that he is only in the initial stage of foundation building now, even if he was in the golden elixir stage in his previous life, he would not dare to walk in.

Dark elements can penetrate into the body of a cultivator at any time, slowly eroding the cultivator's spiritual energy and flesh and blood to strengthen themselves.

Therefore, demons cannot be assimilated by the world because the dark element is too overbearing.

Zhong Ran and his sister have different bloodlines, so they can fully utilize those dark elements for cultivation.

Even these real dark elements might help her condense a dark spirit, bringing her one step closer to advancement.

"Although the barrier is weak, we can't get in now, right?"

Zhong Ran frowned slightly. How could the barrier from ancient times be simple?
