Even hybrid monsters have their day

If Peng Yuxian was formed from the essence and blood of Dongfang Liancheng, then what about Qiu Pi, and why is he present in every dimension?

"I believe you've already guessed it in your heart. Qiu Pi is actually a manifestation of the negative emotions that Dongfang Liancheng withdrew from back then. It's his obsession with Su Yun'er, and even more so, his inner demon. He originally thought he could completely detach himself from it, but some things are inescapable."

Geng Miaowan said that the truth of the matter was a bit unbelievable to her. She tried her best to remain calm and not let her thoughts get confused because she felt that she still had many questions to ask.

However, Peng Yuxian did not intend to give her a chance to clarify the situation in detail, and immediately said, "I know you may still have many questions, but I don't have that much time to explain everything to you now. The reason I told you what I said earlier is because it is closely related to you."

"So you're saying that you're actually a drop of blood from Dongfang Liancheng, and I'm the Tianji Stone that he transformed from his blood essence?" Geng Miaowan felt that this plot was too outrageous. She had always thought that she was a half-blooded demon, but in the end she found that she wasn't even a demon, at most just a stone. How could she bear this?

Soon, she remembered the solution Peng Yuxian had mentioned earlier. She said with almost certainty, "Because I am a Tianji Stone, during the process of traversing space, I will unconsciously affect other Tianji Stones, thus finding them."

“I understand how you feel, but now is not the time for you to dwell on such things. I believe you have also seen that strange thing that imprisons your contracted beast. Qiu Pi doesn’t know why, but he can see what’s happening to his clone in other dimensions through his dreams, which is why he was able to create this thing here.”

"What?!" Geng Miaowan felt that none of the stories she had heard over the past few days had been as impactful as this sentence.

"Moreover, I suspect that he knows the method by which Dongfang Liancheng transformed into a human using his essence and blood, and intends to do the opposite."

She didn't understand what that meant.

"That's right. He plans to retrieve his clones from other dimensions to increase his own cultivation level."

Geng Miaowan jumped up from the ground in surprise. "Now that you put it that way, it all makes sense! No wonder his skill improved so rapidly in just a few days—that's how it is!"

“He really succeeded.” Peng Yuxian’s face showed more disappointment than surprise. “More than three hundred years ago, after I discovered that the spiritual power in my body was fading, I also tried to reclaim the essence blood from other dimensions. But I failed.”

"why"

"Because Dongfang Liancheng engraved his soul on the life force of Buzhou Mountain to prevent it from continuing to collapse, only when all the Tianji Stones of Buzhou Mountain are returned and the life force of Buzhou Mountain is restored can he return."

"How can the life force of Buzhou Mountain be restored? Although I obtained the Heavenly Stone, I have no idea how to repair it. Moreover, will restoring the life force of Buzhou Mountain solve everything here?"

"As long as Dongfang Liancheng can come back, everything will be solved." Geng Miaowan thought it made sense; after all, he was a god. In front of a god, what demons and monsters were nothing but ants.

As for how to repair the Tianji Stone of Buzhou Mountain, Peng Yuxian only said one sentence: "It is neither in life nor in death."

Geng Miaowan suddenly remembered that the brocade box she had seen that day contained the same two sentences, but what should she do? She didn't even know where the life force of Buzhou Mountain was.

Seeing the confusion on her face, Peng Yuxian said, "You don't need to think so much. You just need to rely on your instincts to find a way out."

"Okay, I've remembered everything you said." Geng Miaowan stood up and looked around again before saying, "Wait for me here. I'll go rescue Huangfu and the others first. When I come back, we'll join forces, and I'm sure we'll find a way to get you out."

Peng Yuxian didn't discourage him, and nodded. "Be careful in everything. If things don't look right, leave immediately. I'm fine." He thought bitterly that as soon as Dongfang Liancheng returned, he would disappear from this world.

Just as Geng Miaowan turned around, a soft laugh rang out from the doorway, "Haha, wonderful, wonderful! I never expected to hear such a wonderful story in my lifetime."

Geng Miaowan turned her head and saw Qiu Pi, who had just been fighting Haotian to the death, clapping his hands as he entered from outside.

"Oh no!" Peng Yuxian jumped up, but he forgot that he was chained. Before he could even jump, the chain pulled him back to the ground.

Geng Miaowan took a few steps back, stood beside Peng Yuxian, supported him, and asked softly, "What do we do now?"

Peng Yuxian knew that Qiu Pi had overheard what he had just said. After thinking for a moment, he whispered to her, "I'll hold him off for a bit. You should leave as soon as you have a chance. Everything about Buzhou Mountain originates from the Tianji Stone. On Buzhou Mountain, you can go wherever you want and do whatever you want. No one can stop you, and no power can stop you. Put all the Tianji Stones you find back into the life force of Buzhou Mountain so that Dongfang Liancheng can return."

Yes, as long as Dongfang Liancheng returns, everything here will be resolved. Thinking this, Geng Miaowan suddenly felt more at ease.

She looked at Qiu Pi, who was blocking the cave entrance, showing no shame at being caught trespassing on someone's forbidden territory. Instead, she asked matter-of-factly, "Weren't you off fighting? What are you doing here?"

Qiu Pi's lips curled into a wicked smile. "If we don't come, wouldn't we miss out on such a wonderful story?"

Something flashed through Geng Miaowan's mind. Seeing Qiu Pi appear so openly in the Demon Clan's territory, her mind instantly cleared. "So all that you and Haotian did in front of me was a lie."

Qiu Pi glanced at Peng Yuxian and said indifferently, "Who told him to keep his mouth shut so tightly? We had to find someone to pry it open. I just didn't expect that he knew so much more than I wanted. What a pleasant surprise."

Looking at Qiu Pi, who had been talking without moving since he came in, Geng Miaowan's heart pounded, as if she had missed something.
