The Game with Fairies - Chapter 377
Chapter 377: Land Beyond the Heavens
Within the peach grove full of blossoms, the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.
Li Muyang walked through the peach grove but saw not a single soul.
This ancient peach grove paradise, without any malevolent spirits guarding it, and the peach blossom fairy had not perished.
Now, the only resident of the peach grove was the peach blossom fairy herself.
She smiled gently, accompanying Li Muyang and another person, introducing the many wonders within the peach grove paradise.
Lake of March, Enlightening Platform, Peach Brew Pond, Spiritual Medicine Garden… The peach blossom fairy had meticulously crafted this secret haven of immortals, indeed mysterious and beautiful.
Even Xiao Yecao, who had seen much of the world, couldn’t help but exclaim,
“Peach Blossom Fairy truly transcends the ordinary…”
Li Muyang, on the other hand, surveyed the terrain of the peach blossom paradise, his gaze lingering on the Spiritual Medicine Garden for a long time.
Inside the garden were many spirit herbs and immortal grasses carefully cultivated by the peach blossom fairy, which made Li Muyang’s mouth water.
Any of these immortal grasses, if taken to the future, would be enough to shake both the righteous and demonic paths.
Li Muyang memorized the location, and after staying in the peach blossom paradise for three days and consuming the soup medicine prepared by the peach blossom fairy three times, feeling his body fully recovered, Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao bid farewell to the peach blossom fairy.
They were going to visit the demon clan of Yellow Wind Valley.
……
Li Muyang walked on this land with great curiosity.
“Is there anything special about this land? It feels like there are more hermits and masters here than in other regions.”
In this small piece of land beyond the border, there lived the old immortal of Yangshou Mountain, the peach blossom fairy of the peach grove paradise, and the demon clan of Yellow Wind Valley.
In addition, there were the North Sea Dragon King and the Hidden Daoist, whom Li Muyang had not yet visited.
Roughly counting, there were several true immortals on this land.
Li Muyang thought about the future, when this land would become a forbidden zone for cultivators, swallowing up those who practiced here, and couldn’t help but be curious.
Could it be that the anomaly of this land had already shown signs during ancient times?
Xiao Yecao stepped onto the land, tilted her head in thought, and said,
“The old immortal of Yangshou Mountain told me that this land is different from other regions.”
“Although this land has vast spiritual energy and converging ley lines, its essence doesn’t fit in with the rest of the world.”
“The old immortal believes that this land may have come from beyond the heavens, not a product of this world.”
“The Peach Blossom Fairy thinks that this place may be a legacy of sages from ancient times, perhaps once transformed by a great being with divine powers, which is why the spiritual energy here converges…”
Xiao Yecao recounted the legends she had heard.
Unfortunately, the true immortals all had their own speculations about the origin of this land.
The true immortals didn’t even anticipate that after the future dark turmoil, this land would devour cultivators and become a forbidden zone for practitioners…
After a rapid progression of events, Li Muyang felt the scene before him fast-forward.
When he steadied himself again, he and Xiao Yecao had arrived outside Yellow Wind Valley.
Yellow Wind Valley, filled with maple trees, was home to many demon clans.
However, standing before the mountain valley, looking at the familiar terrain and forests, Li Muyang blinked in a daze.
–Isn’t this the entrance to the underground mist world?
Wtf?
The demon clan of Yellow Wind Valley from ten thousand years ago actually lived here?
A strong sense of absurdity welled up in Li Muyang’s heart.
But he kept silent, following Xiao Yecao into Yellow Wind Valley.
Wei Sandao, whom he had sent away from Myriad Great Mountains, was not in the valley at this time.
Wei Sandao’s mother, the valley master Liu Sanniang of Yellow Wind Valley, personally came out to greet them.
Although the demon clan of Yellow Wind Valley was somewhat famous, Liu Sanniang, who had not yet become a true immortal, clearly did not intend to put on airs in front of Xiao Yecao.
After all, Xiao Yecao was someone who could converse with true immortals and Dragon Kings with ease, and although she was just one step away from the realm of immortals, it was a step she would eventually take.
Knowing of Xiao Yecao’s visit, Liu Sanniang personally greeted them with a smile, her attitude warm and cordial to the extreme.
Li Muyang followed Xiao Yecao, walking on the mountain filled with maple trees, but found that Yellow Wind Valley did not yet have the pit that led directly to the underground mist world.
The pit that would become the entrance to the underground mist world ten thousand years later was now a picturesque place with pavilions and terraces, where the demon clan resided.
When Li Muyang and the others entered, the spiritual energy in the mountains converged, benevolent demons came and went, and young little demons happily played in the water among the mountains, presenting a scene of a paradise on earth.
Such a land rich in spiritual energy made one wonder what kind of turmoil it had gone through to turn this beautiful demon sacred land into the eerie and sinister pit entrance of ten thousand years later.
After entering Yellow Wind Valley, Xiao Yecao and Li Muyang took their seats and got straight to the point.
Li Muyang’s awakening of the 【Spiritual Vision Eye】 years ago had led to his contamination by an ancient evil god, and now he was gravely ill, asking Liu Sanniang for treatment.
Faced with Xiao Yecao’s request, Liu Sanniang showed a troubled expression.
“…The power of the Ancient Evil Lineage originates from the illusory space where the evil god resides.”
“The demon lineage of Yellow Wind Valley, although they fought side by side with the descendants of the evil lineage long ago and have some understanding of it, to treat such an ailment as a soul contaminated by the power of an evil god, even the ancestors of our demon clan would find it difficult to deal with, let alone us.”
Liu Sanniang sighed and said, “If the fairy’s brother had not left Black Cloud Village, perhaps things would not have deteriorated to this extent.”
“Black Cloud Village is the last stronghold of the Ancient Evil Lineage, and Granny Gu in the village is the most powerful evil spirit since ancient times.”
“She might be able to protect the fairy’s brother and prevent his soul from being tainted.”
Liu Sanniang’s answer made Li Muyang frown.
“Evil spirit?”
Wasn’t Granny Gu human?
How did she become an evil spirit?
Although the Ancient Evil Lineage sounded terrifying, they were essentially human, just with strange powers in their bloodline.
To this, Liu Sanniang explained, “The so-called evil spirits are a term from ancient times, referring to a type of person that has gradually disappeared along with the extinction of evil spirits on the land.”
“In the ancient times, countless evil spirits roamed the land, feeding on living creatures, powerful and strange, ruling the entire world.”
“Until the Ancient Evil Lineage appeared, there were people among the humans who could enslave evil spirits, harness their power for their own use, and use the power of evil spirits to fight against them—these people were called evil spirits.”
“With the complete eradication of evil spirits, only the last evil spirit remained in the world, Granny Gu of Black Cloud Village.”
Liu Sanniang looked at them and said, “The old woman in Black Cloud Village who sits in the ancestral temple and seals the evil god, each generation loses their original name, replaced by a hereditary title—Granny Gu.”
“And the Granny Gu of this generation in Black Cloud Village is particularly powerful.”
“My son Wei Sandao has spent many years in Black Cloud Village, following the Temple Seal Lord to practice magic. He told me when he came home that the current Granny Gu might be the most powerful evil spirit in Black Cloud Village throughout history.”
“She is suspected of being able to enslave evil gods!”
