Chapter 329 My master is here
Inside a small underwater cave chamber.
Lu Bai was sleeping soundly with a carefree and plump body, while Liu Fang swallowed a red pill and sat cross-legged in meditation to heal his wounds. Chen Yingjie also found a corner to practice the Xuanyuan Qiling Jue, absorbing spiritual energy every second.
Only Bai Yaoyao was on night duty with her big eyes open.
"Oh, right, 686! When you weren't here, the system prompted that it had captured a disappearing symbiotic energy body and asked me to confirm whether to keep the final mark. After I confirmed that I had kept it, I didn't see any mark!"
[Mark?]
686 was stunned for a moment, [Wait a minute, I'll check! ]
After a while, 686 said in surprise, "Found it!"
Bai Yaoyao was shocked and suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Is it... is it Qi Meng?"
[Uh... yes! This one can definitely be considered her, but...]
Bai Yaoyao was delighted when she heard 686 say it was Qi Meng, but before she could be happy, she heard what 686 said next.
[But it can’t be considered completely her! This is just a little bit of her soul’s origin, it can only be considered a little mark of her existence in this world. ]
Bai Yaoyao frowned deeply and listened to 686 start to talk about its guess.
According to 686's guess, after Lan Qimeng performed "Harmony and Stopping War" at the cost of her life, she should have returned to the heaven and earth. However, because she had formed a contract with Bai Yaoyao, there was a bit of Lan Qimeng's soul in Bai Yaoyao's body.
If Bai Yaoyao was an ordinary person, this origin would naturally dissipate with the death of Lan Qimeng.
But Bai Yaoyao's soul is bound to a system.
The system detected that Lan Qimeng's origin was about to dissipate, so it triggered the protection mechanism.
Then the previous scene appeared.
And with the consent of Bai Yaoyao, the host of the system, Lan Qimeng's soul origin was preserved.
However, because the origin of the soul must have a body as a carrier, the remaining origin of Lan Qimeng can only sink into the depths of Bai Yaoyao's soul. This is why Bai Yaoyao can't find it.
Later, 686 used the system to display the mark on Bai Yaoyao's wrist, and Bai Yaoyao could then see the mark clearly.
Bai Yaoyao touched the golden fish tail on her wrist and couldn't help feeling regretful.
Lan Qimeng, the mermaid saint, is actually just a simple girl. When she was on Blue Star, her tears saved many people.
After returning to the secret realm of Mirage Sea, she resolutely sacrificed herself in order to resist the sea beasts and save her master.
It has to be said that it is a very tragic character.
Bai Yaoyao sighed softly, "686, is there any way you can save her?"
686 rolled his eyes, "I've told you before that science and theology are two different systems! I am a product of technology, but this Lan Qimeng was born with the spiritual energy of the Mirage Sea. How can I possibly save her...?"
Seeing Bai Yaoyao lowering her head, looking very shocked, 686 couldn't help but soften his voice.
[Instead of asking me, you might as well ask her tribesmen. Doesn’t she have a few elders? Maybe they have a solution!]
Bai Yaoyao nodded and secretly kept this matter in mind.
At dawn the next day, Bai Yaoyao, Chen Yingjie, Lu Bai and Liu Fang said goodbye and prepared to go see what was happening outside.
As soon as the two of them walked to the door, Liu Fang and Lu Bai chased after them.
Lu Bai held a token in his hand, his face glowing with joy, "Senior Sister Bai! My master is here!"
Liu Fang beside him was also full of joy. "Someone from our Fengyu Pavilion has also arrived! I just received a gathering signal from our deputy pavilion master, Fairy Yun Miao, asking us to meet up at the crystal! Fairy Yun Miao is the deputy pavilion master of our Fengyu Pavilion, and a master in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm. Now we don't have to hide anymore!"
Bai Yaoyao and Chen Yingjie looked at each other with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow in their eyes.
What made them happy was, of course, the arrival of reinforcements, and they no longer had to worry about being hunted by Solo.
What they were worried about was that their fabricated Longhua Sect might not be able to be hidden from these sect leaders. Would it cause any misunderstandings? !
On the way back, Chen Yingjie and Bai Yaoyao were secretly discussing countermeasures, while Lu Bai and Liu Fang were eager to return home, so they did not notice anything unusual about the two.
Halfway through the journey, we came to an area of the sea filled with huge rocks.
Bai Yaoyao suddenly stopped.
"Wait! There's an ambush ahead!"
Several people were startled and took out their weapons, looking around vigilantly.
Behind a huge rock about 300 meters away from them, several strong mermaid guards saw that several people stopped about 100 meters away from the trap they set, and they couldn't help but look at each other in frustration.
"What should we do, Boss! Have they noticed us?"
The man in the lead had a face full of fat and a scar extending from the corner of his eye to his chin, looking extremely scary.
"Impossible! The elders said that only immortals above the Nascent Soul stage can project their spiritual consciousness! Those who came to participate in the trial are just new cultivators! It's probably just a coincidence that they stopped there!"
"What should we do? These are all immortals. If we don't have the trap given by the elders, we will never be able to defeat them!"
The man called the leader had a fierce light in his eyes and said in a low voice, "If they don't take the initiative to go down, then we will lead them down! I remember there is a..."
Several people were whispering, and after a moment, the mermaid who had just asked the question sneaked around the back.
Lu Bai and Liu Fang, one holding a sword in his right hand and the other holding a brush, were on guard for a long time but did not find anything unusual, so they all looked at Bai Yaoyao.
"Senior Sister Bai, there is no one here!"
Bai Yaoyao had been looking at the system map. When she saw the mermaid who had left wander around the periphery and then quickly approached their side and rear, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes.
Is this an attempt to surround them?
Bai Yaoyao sneered. Although she and Chen Yingjie were cultivators who only had spiritual power but no magic, and Liu Fang was still seriously injured, it seemed that only Lu Bai had the strength to fight among them. But it would be too arrogant to want to surround them with just these mermaids!
"Someone is coming from the side and behind him, and there are several sea snakes following him!"
Bai Yaoyao gave Chen Yingjie a look, and Chen Yingjie immediately understood. Something cold slid from his sleeve to his palm and was held firmly by him.
Lu Bai and Liu Fang also stood back to back, with Liu Fang paying attention to the front and Lu Bai holding a sword and looking back, ready for battle.
200 meters, 100 meters.
To Bai Yaoyao's surprise, the mermaid that was running towards them suddenly disappeared from the map when it was less than 100 meters away from them.
The sea snakes that had been following him paused for a moment and then quickly pounced towards them.
Sea snakes are common sea beasts in the Mirage Sea, famous for their speed and venom. However, they are also rare creatures that are not affected by the drastic changes in the Mirage Sea.
Generally, they like to wander around in groups, and if no one bothers them, it's fine to just pass by them.
