Quick Transmigration: After the Backup Love Awakens, He Sacrifices the Official Partner to the Heave
Chapter 3 The Tool in a Xianxia Novel: Senior Brother 2
The Demon Soul Cave is located in the back mountain of the Lingyun Sect, which is a forbidden area of the sect. The group of people escorted Jiang Zui to the entrance of the Demon Soul Cave and then left, not caring whether Jiang Zui actually went in or not, since the passage into the back mountain was guarded by special personnel.
The dimly lit cave exuded an eerie atmosphere. A cold wind blew by, stirring up a swarm of black bats that circled around Jiang Zui.
Jiang Zui stared in astonishment at the signboard above the cave entrance, now covered in spiderwebs, where the three large characters "Demon Soul Cave" came into view.
"Host, weren't you supposed to be a big shot in the male lead group? How come you're so useless? What happened to the promised face-slapping?" the system asked anxiously. "We've been banished to this place, what are we going to do?"
"Hey, what's the rush? Think carefully, where is this place?" Jiang Zui reminded him.
He came to the Demon Soul Cave voluntarily.
Moreover, he left a small gift on Meng Zhe as a first meeting present.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zui's lips slowly curled up.
If you go against him, you must be prepared to fail.
Upon hearing Jiang Zui's words, the system suddenly remembered something, and unable to contain its excitement, it shouted, "Ah—!"
Fortunately, only Jiang Zui could hear the system's voice; otherwise, it would have been a nuisance.
"Host, I'm so sorry, they misunderstood you. You're the best, the most amazing." The system said in a slightly guilty tone, feigning a sweet and coquettish voice.
Before binding itself to Jiang Zui, it had already inquired with the male protagonist group and learned that its host loved being praised. In order to urge its host to complete the task as soon as possible, it had specially implanted a complete guide to flattery.
"This is a bit disgusting, change your voice." Jiang Zui said with a look of disgust.
"Okay."
Hidden within the Demon Soul Cave is a deeply affectionate male supporting character—Ji Qiyin. Back then, Meng Zhe was framed and accidentally entered the Demon Soul Cave, where he happened to encounter Ji Qiyin, who was suppressing the Demon Soul Cave.
Ji Qiyin is the sword spirit of the Demon-Slaying Sword, which is an ancient sword with immense power, used to seal various evil spirits.
It was used by the patriarch of the Lingyun Sect to suppress the demons in the Demon Soul Cave.
Ji Qiyin had been in the Demon Soul Cave for countless years without ever seeing anyone until he met Meng Zhe.
Attracted by the dazzling world described by Meng Zhe, she voluntarily became Meng Zhe's sword.
She accompanied Meng Zhe as he fought his way through the land, and as they spent more time together, she fell in love with him. However, Meng Zhe already had Yu Miao, so she had to suppress her feelings. In the end, she died protecting Meng Zhe during the war between immortals and demons.
In this story, Ji Qiyin and the original owner of the body play similar roles; both are willing to give everything for the protagonist, even if it means death.
Meng Zhe's encounter with Ji Qiyin was a turning point. Before meeting Ji Qiyin, he was just a genius in the Lingyun Sect, but in the eyes of others, he might not be worth mentioning.
However, after meeting Ji Qiyin, Meng Zhe seemed to have been given a cheat code, killing gods and ghosts alike.
Furthermore, all the opportunities Meng Zhe encountered afterward were based on Ji Qiyin. Therefore, as long as Ji Qiyin no longer belongs to Meng Zhe's side, he would like to see what Meng Zhe would do next.
"Host, you struck first! Impressive! I admire you! You truly are a master among masters," the system praised.
"Alright, enough with the flattery, let's get down to business first."
Jiang Zui ignored the system and went into the cave on his own.
The entrance to the cave was very narrow, allowing only one person to pass at a time. Inside, it was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and there were also some poisonous snakes and insects blocking the way.
Jiang Zui had only walked for two or three minutes when he could no longer move. He looked at the original owner's frail body and sighed helplessly for a long time.
This wretched body!
"System, do you have any medicine to restore my body?" Jiang Zui asked.
"I apologize, host. As this system is newly created, it is currently in the experimental stage and its functions have not yet been fully optimized."
The system, feeling guilty, continued, "However, please rest assured, host, this system is currently under repair and I believe it will soon be able to meet your requirements."
"Alright."
Anyway, he didn't have high expectations.
The original owner's body was too useless.
However, it's not that he has no way to save it.
He had lived in a small world of immortals and heroes, and possessed cultivation techniques suitable for the original owner's mutated lightning spiritual root.
Jiang Zui had no choice but to rest on the spot for a moment. Just as he stood up, a cloud of black smoke struck him. Jiang Zui reacted quickly and managed to snatch it away without serious injury.
Immediately, a seductive voice rang in Jiang Zui's ears, "Boy, I have been in this dark cave for five hundred years. You are the only human I have encountered in these five hundred years. It is truly a blessing from heaven."
"Boy, although your body doesn't look very good, I won't be picky. You won't survive in the Demon Cave anyway, so why not do a good deed before you die and use this body for me?"
As he spoke, the black smoke tried to forcefully take over Jiang Zui's body.
Unfortunately, the person standing in front of him was not the original owner of this body, but the powerful Jiang Zui.
Jiang Zui couldn't let the black smoke succeed.
"If you want this body, then give it a try."
Just as the two souls were fiercely fighting for the body, a golden light descended from the sky, startling the black smoke into fleeing in haste. Before Jiang Zui could react, the black smoke vanished without a trace.
As the golden light dissipated, a blurry figure gradually emerged.
The person who arrived was none other than Ji Qiyin, whom Jiang Zui was looking for.
With delicate features, flowing long hair, and a black robe embroidered with gold thread, she exuded nobility and elegance. Despite her domineering aura, the clarity in her eyes made her seem out of place.
Just as described in the book, she appears cold on the outside but is actually innocent and pure, like a child.
"Who are you? How did you end up here? Don't you know it's dangerous here?" Ji Qiyin frowned, and his soft voice created a striking contrast.
"My name is Jiang Zui, a disciple of the Lingyun Sect. Due to some reasons, I was punished by my master to spend five years in seclusion in the Demon Soul Cave."
Five years?!
"An ordinary person couldn't even last a day, and with your small frame, I doubt you could even last half a day. If I hadn't shown up in time, you would have been possessed by that old hag," Ji Xiyin said, pursing his lips.
"Thank you for saving me. May I ask how I should address you, fellow Daoist?"
Ji Qiyin waved his hand casually and said, "No need to thank me. My name is Ji Qiyin, and I am... I am... this... um..."
Ji Qiyin was at a loss for words to explain his origins, and scratched his head in confusion.
"I've heard that there's a demon-slaying sword in the Demon Soul Cave that guards against evil spirits. This sword has been used since the beginning of time to slay demons and monsters; it's a peerless divine weapon. After thousands of years, it has given birth to a sword spirit. I suppose... you must be that sword spirit?"
"You know me?!" Upon hearing Jiang Zui's words, Ji Qiyin's eyes widened, shining brightly as he asked excitedly.
Jiang Zui felt no guilt whatsoever, nodded, and replied, "Yes, I saw it in the library."
