Zhongshan Shenzhu Chi

Chapter 95 Returning to the Mountain

A proclamation denouncing the traitors caused a sensation throughout the land, yet few raindrops fell.

All the forces that received the invitation turned to look at Zhongshan.

The decline of the dynasty is an indisputable fact.

The sunlight filtering through this towering tree will allow many myths to take root and sprout.

Until they figured out what kind of myth the red serpent on Zhongshan was, they would only wait and see.

Time passed day by day.

The proclamation against the traitors seemed to have sunk without a trace; Zhongshan remained Zhongshan, standing there silently, unmoved.

"boom!"

The enormous blue tiger was once again whipped into the air by the snake's tail and embedded in the rock wall on the bank of the Luo River.

Gravel fell in a soft rustling sound.

With the buff from the soldiers, Qinghu was not directly struck so hard that his heart and lungs stopped, as he had in the past.

She pried herself out of the rock wall, landed on the ground, and gasped for breath.

"Candle, I was acting really strange just now." Shan Jun shook his head, flicking the pebbles buried on his head.

Even though she had saved her strength to dodge before the attack and had made a timely dodge move, the snake's tail still struck her squarely.

"Tell me, what's wrong with this?" The giant snake turned around and coiled up, its eyes fixed intently on the mountain lord.

"this----"

The mountain lord, with a limp and a limp, walked up to the giant snake.

The scene of being whipped away by a tail kept replaying in my mind.

She rehearsed every dodging technique: side dodge, front jump, side jump, and prone.

But the snake's tail didn't seem to care how it dodged; it just wanted to hit it, so it did.

"It's very strange, I can't describe it."

The mountain lord lay down before the great serpent.

"It's like your tail, destined to whip me—"

"Waaaaah—" The little fox ran over at that moment and heard the last words the mountain king said.

Her eyes, reflecting the peach blossoms, were wide with surprise.

A surprised look swept back and forth between the giant snake and the mountain king.

They were very serious; the large snake was coiled up, and the blue tiger was lying down.

I think too much.

The little fox's initial excitement subsided, and its two tails, which had been curling upwards, drooped slightly as it drifted in the wind.

"Since Jiulian is here, let her give it a try. I'll watch."

Shan Jun turned his head and looked at Jiu Lian, who was walking towards him step by step, and said.

I don't know if she heard the noise and wanted to take revenge.

The little fox instinctively sensed something was wrong and tried to run away, but she was powerless to resist a tigress who was about to dominate Zhongshan.

"Are you going to pick me?

Looking at the snake's tail, which was many times wider than its own body length.

The little fox's two tails drooped down completely, tucked between its legs, filling them completely.

"Get out of the way." Looking at her appearance, the giant snake felt a surge of pleasure.

Without offering any explanation, it raised its tail and swiftly lashed out.

A strong wind swept in.

The little fox's tail was held straight up like its limbs, and its peach-blossom eyes were fixed on the ferocious snake tail that was attacking it.

In an instant, countless ways to dodge—jumping, dodging, retreating—rained down her mind.

But the ferocious giant tail ignored its every thought.

All the scenarios that flashed through the little fox's mind made it instinctively feel that it couldn't escape.

"I was wrong, I was wrong!"

The little fox immediately lay down on the ground, its two front paws covering its head, and its two tails wrapping around its front paws.

A mournful wail.

The words even carried the mournful whimpering sound that foxes naturally make.

"Do you understand now?" the giant snake suddenly asked in my ear.

"I understand some of it. Is this the path you've chosen?"

The mountain lord observed carefully.

She had seen everything the little fox was trying to do.

Is it causal anchoring?

Hearing the noise, the little fox carefully loosened its tail and released its front paws.

The giant snake had already retracted its tail.

"That's a bit of a hint," the giant snake said in a deep voice.

Unbeknownst to the mountain lord and the fox, the realm of time was quietly reclaimed.

It's not just about locking in causal lines.

Just now, the giant snake slowed down the time of the mountain lord and the fox by more than ten times.

The fact that they couldn't perceive it meant that its domain had already taken initial shape and merged into the world.

But that was all the lightning tribulation could do at that time.

That's how the natural order works: it takes as much as it can handle and gives as much as it can provide.

All that remains is to be tempered by the flames of war, whether human or demon.

"Candle, when I was cultivating the Soldier's Fiend, something seemed to be growing inside my body," the Mountain Lord said.

Upon hearing this, the little fox's eyes widened again, but this time she only dared to look at the ground and dared not look at Sister Lingyi anymore.

This tigress may seem magnanimous, but she's actually incredibly vengeful and petty.

While thinking bad things to himself, the little fox even wrapped his upper body with his tail, afraid of being discovered.

Shan Jun glanced at her indifferently.

"Let me see." The giant serpent raised its head, its enormous shadow enveloping the mountain lord.

Viewpoint switch.

The world before my eyes was instantly filled with colorful spiritual energy.

The mountain lord lay there, its outline blue, its interior pitch black.

I can't see anything.

The giant snake frowned inwardly.

Let's look deeper.

A thread, distinct from all others, stretched down from the void and connected with the dark, malevolent spirit within the Mountain Lord's body.

The moment it saw it, the giant snake seemed to be warned, and the viewpoint instantly returned to its original position.

The great river flows again, and the mountain peaks slowly appear.

"Candle, what did you see?" the mountain lord asked.

The little fox also cast a curious glance.

"I can see it, but I can't be sure what it is."

"But since you came here because of your military aura—"

The giant snake slowly flicked its tongue, its mind filled with many myths it had once witnessed.

It does not want the mountain lord to follow that predetermined path.

By accepting the power of that deity, one will also bear the responsibilities of that deity.

"Cultivate first. When you have the strength to come into contact with Him, you will naturally know."

"Understood, I'll go down the mountain tomorrow."

The mountain king nodded.

She was not afraid of hardship, but she feared there was no way to get close to the giant serpent.

The serpent's tone gave her hope.

"Sister Lingyi, are you leaving tomorrow?" The little fox quickly stepped forward and lay down on the front paws of the enormous blue tiger.

She still wanted to rely on the power of the Azure Tiger to roar through the mountains and forests once again.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, so I'll spend some time with you today."

"Yay!"

The little fox, its eyes brimming with joy, met the mountain lord's bright yellow pupils.

Little did they know what kind of perverse pleasure was hidden beneath those bright yellow eyes.

The giant snake flicked its tongue, watching the interaction between the mountain lord and the little fox.

It turned around, and its enormous body disappeared straight into the Luo River.

At this moment, the lightning tribulation could no longer refine its temporal domain.

It has already touched the invisible and intangible protective shield that envelops Zhongshan.

Almost everything that needed to be done at Zhongshan has been completed.

It's time to say it—

Goodbye.
