ninety thousand miles

Chapter 613: Trouble
"More than 20 years ago, it was the Frost Leaf Sect. If it is related to the Frost Leaf Sect..." Li Chuan racked his brains to think, "Can the Frost Leaf Sect replace these bones, or are they afraid that Yun Yi will track them down here, so they stopped?"

"So, where did he go?" Li Chuan scratched his head in distress. "He must be hiding in the dark, spying on us."

"There is someone who wants to find him more than we do." Wen Guying said.

"Who?" Li Chuan asked.

"Demon spirit." Wen Guying said.

"Yes, that's right," Li Chuan urged, "Hurry up and talk about the demons and the White Walkers, don't interrupt and talk about other things."

Wen Guying paused and said, "It was Chi Lin who arranged for the demon spirit to sink into the Heart Abyss. He told her to go to the spire to get the key after leaving the Heart Abyss, use the demon mark to drive it, and then take it to where he was sleeping, which is Youxi Valley."

"That's right." Li Chuan said.

"The demon spirit must have done what Chi Lin said, but Chi Lin did not wake up." Wen Guying said.

"Then she came to me?" Li Chuan continued, "Is it because the opportunity hasn't come yet? Or is there something wrong?"

"Who can answer these two questions for you?" Wen Guying asked.

"Chi Lin? His clone?" Li Chuan suddenly realized.

Wen Guying nodded, "Using you to open the door and wake up Chi Lin has already failed. Even if you go now, with us here, even if Chi Lin is awakened, the situation will not develop as she expected."

"So she is also looking for Chi Lin's clone?" Li Chuan asked.

"So, who is the last person known to the world to have a connection with Chi Lin's clone?" Wen Guying asked patiently.

"Half-demon woman?" Li Chuan asked.

"That's right." Wen Guying said.

"We guessed before that the demon spirit might go to look for her, and she has already been there once. Now that you put it this way, it is a little clearer, but we still can't catch her."

Li Chuan looked in the direction Jiang Mei left. "She only let some shadows come this time... Can those shadows be tortured?"

"Try it later." Wen Guying said.

"What about the others?" Li Chuan asked.

"Why did the demon spirit fail? Have you ever thought about this question? Why did she think you could succeed if you went there? What methods did you show her?" Wen Guying asked a few more questions.

"This..." Li Chuan recalled and said, "She started to think that I was also a White Walker. Later, she might...maybe she thought that I was one of Chi Lin's clones, because what I can do is indeed very similar to the methods of the Gods."

"Is that you?" Wen Guying asked.

"How is that possible?" Li Chuan answered without thinking, "Also, I learned her Yuansi. Anyway, no matter how she sees me, she is wrong."

Li Chuan knew very well who he was and where he came from.

"Then let's go back to the question above. Why did she fail to wake Chi Lin up?" This time Wen Guying gave the answer directly, "White Walkers."

"What do you mean?" Li Chuan asked. Wen Guying listed them one by one and said, "During the 30,000 years when the demon spirit sank into the Heart Abyss, she used the Abyss Silk to help the White Walkers enter the world. The half-demon woman founded the Frost Leaf Sect to help the White Walkers parasitize. The old man beside her is most likely Chi Lin's clone. Therefore, the reason why Chi Lin has not been awakened is probably that the White Walkers have not yet parasitized on mortal monks in large numbers. In other words, the opportunity has not yet arrived."

"That is to say, Chi Lin needs to borrow the power of the White Walkers? But..." Li Chuan thought of Tian Su, "Tian Su also seems to want to borrow the power of the White Walkers?" He shook his head and said, "I really can't figure it out."

"Where does the Frost Leaf Sect's power come from?" Wen Guying asked.

"What power? That, the power they share?" Li Chuan reacted, "From Chi Lin? That old man?"

"The Frost Leaf Sect was founded more than 20 years ago, but it took more than 20 years to prepare for this. The bones found by Elder Li fill in the last link." Wen Guying spoke slower, "After the three great disasters, demons, half-demons, and demon beasts have the possibility of rising again. Chi Lin chose a half-demon. He made some preparations for this."

"Destroy the seal under the Wochi, awaken one of the ancient monsters, draw the spiritual power of the pillar of heaven, and extend his life. Plant a butterfly spirit in the pillar of heaven. Also, prepare enough power for the emergence of the Frost Leaf Sect."

"But the other two were done before he fell asleep." Li Chuan raised an objection.

"Because he wants to wait." Wen Guying said.

"What are you waiting for?" Li Chuan asked.

"By the time that ancient monster recovered enough to fulfill the agreement with him, that was about six hundred years ago," Wen Guying said.

"Six hundred years ago, he went to Wochi once?" Li Chuan asked.

"That should be the case." Wen Guying said.

"That half-demon woman, that was more than fifty or sixty years ago." Li Chuan raised an objection again.

"It's not like he can recover as soon as he does. He has to wait for the right time." Wen Guying said, "And by then, he might have brought something to the monster."

"What is it?" Li Chuan asked. He scratched his head again and said, "Can you finish it right away? My head hurts."

"Because I was thinking that," Wen Guying explained, "We found eight graves in the monster's well, which means eight half-demons, and nine half-demons if you strengthen them. And the original gods tree gave birth to nine monsters. This is not a coincidence."

"So, at that time, Chi Lin returned here, took a leaf from the sacred tree, or something else, and gave it to the monster. After the monster refined it, it chose the woman with the royal bloodline of mankind. The two combined to form a new half-monster bloodline." Wen Guying said.

"He is quite busy, but I still don't understand, that is..." Li Chuan raised the question again, "You just said that the skeleton was prepared for the Frost Leaf Sect, just to lend them strength. You said to borrow his power, I can understand, but borrowing the power of these little demons is useless, right?"

"No, it is the power of the sleeping clone, or... the power of the blood pool. The skeleton is the bridge of communication necessary for the ritual. It is also the bridge between him and his sleeping clone." Wen Guying said.

"Where do the White Walkers live?" Li Chuan suddenly realized, and said, "Yes, that's right. The final host of the White Walkers must be intelligent, so cultivation is indeed not important."

He said, "I want to go to the place that Elder Li mentioned to see if those jade bones are parasitic."

"The gods and demons discovered the existence of the White Walkers 30,000 years ago, and they saw it as an opportunity to turn the tables after their defeat." Wen Guying turned around and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiang is back, and it's almost time for us to go back."

Sure enough, after two breaths, Jiang Mei landed on Qifeng Gorge again with the Abyssal Fire Mirror. With a serious expression, he quickly walked up to Li Chuan and the others and said, "What happened?"

"Did something happen in Guiyin Cave?" Li Chuan asked.

"No," Jiang Mei replied, "It was in Luoxia Secret Realm, where the Golden Phoenix Sect and the Green Sect started fighting."
