Xu Ning was secretly anxious. The sky gradually darkened, and the purplish-black aura gradually blended into the night. It was becoming more and more difficult to see clearly using Elemental Vision.
Fortunately, Xu Ning had already made a trip there, so he still remembered the location of the Old China Sect's old site very clearly.
When he came to the feet of the two stone statues again, it was already completely dark.
Xu Ning looked up at the two majestic stone statues guarding the mountain.
One of the two stone statues was holding a long spear, while the other was holding a long spear. They were guarding the entrance of the Ancient Chinese Sect. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, there were many places on their bodies that had been weathered and shattered.
Through the two statues, one could see a winding stone staircase leading to the top of the mountain.
Xu Ning didn't stay for long. He passed through the stone statue and climbed up the stone steps.
Many of the stone steps were broken or even collapsed, but some places had obviously been repaired.
They either shoveled away the moss on the stone surface or placed some gravel on the broken stone steps.
There was even an entire section of stone steps that had collapsed, and there was even a wooden ladder leaning against it.
Xu Ning was finally convinced that Shen He's father must have brought her here to perform the so-called " relying on one's life to borrow one's life " mysterious spell.
Even though he had already been running back and forth for a while, Xu Ning only felt his spirits rise at this moment. He once again mustered up his strength and climbed up.
All of a sudden, the mountain wind whistled by his ears, and the water rippled. When he looked up, he could see the warm lights of Glass Moon Harbor in the distance.
Xu Ning realized that he had already climbed to the top of the mountain.
In the lotus pond that was faintly visible in the darkness, a few Ice Slimes jumped around tirelessly. The sound of the water waves was made by them.
The main gate of the Ancient Chinese Sect on the right was blocked by a thick iron fence.
"Could it be that they entered this place?”
The stone bridge in the lotus pond had already collapsed. Xu Ning tapped the broken stone with the tip of his toes and jumped directly in front of the main gate.
There were two circular runic plates on the ground on both sides of the main door. Xu Ning stood on one of them, and a faint light appeared on the plate.
"This instrument plate is activated by weight. Shen He and her father happen to have one each. I have to think of another way."
Xu Ning recalled how Big Dipper had activated the Lion Circle Formation that day. He dug out a stone from the edge of the lotus pond and pressed it on the plate under his feet before standing on another plate.
The iron fence creaked and slowly revealed a black door.
In the middle of the door was a huge exquisite treasure chest.
Xu Ning's face darkened.
There was a thick layer of dust on the treasure chest, and it looked very old.
There was a rusty piece of iron hanging from the lock, and Xu Ning pulled it off.
Then, the treasure chest popped open.
A few Fine Forging Ores dropped, and there was also a Wood Sea in the box.
Xu Ning wiped the iron plate in his hand, and engraved the words "Waiting for fate" on it.
"This should be a gift that the Gu Hua Sect deliberately left for the fated people before they left. However, this treasure chest was blocking the main entrance. It was covered in thick dust, and there were no traces of it being touched. It seemed that I had found the wrong place again.”
At this moment, Xu Ning was not in the mood to look at what was in the wooden box. He casually placed it into the Hidden Dust Cave and picked up the few fine ores used for fine forging to press on his gloves.
Purple light circulated, directly raising the level of the boxing gloves to the maximum level of level 20. Its attack power also increased once again.
Xu Ningjin missed several times in a row, and anger rose in her heart.
Looking up at the few ice balls jumping happily on the water surface, Xu Ning directly jumped to the ice surface frozen by the Ice Slime and kicked them all down the cliff.
Standing on a broken stone pillar by the cliff, he used the cold mountain wind to calm the irritation in his chest.
"This direction can't be wrong. I must have missed some important clue.”
Xu Ning turned around and went down the mountain again, but this time, his speed was much slower.
He searched every place carefully, not letting go of any suspicious places.
Xu Ning knew that ever since he had transmigrated to the Tivat Continent, the flapping of his butterfly wings had already changed many things.
He absolutely could not and did not dare to rely on the experience of his previous life to verify the changes in this world. Otherwise, something that he would regret for the rest of his life would eventually happen.
"Even if I have to climb the mountain a few more times, I must find Shen He!”
At a corner, when he pressed on a black stone wall overgrown with weeds, Xu Ning actually pressed on nothing.
It turned out that the grass on top of the rock was dense and covered the entire cave.
The wrong force almost caused Xu Ning to fall into the hole. Fortunately, his waist was strong enough to straighten his body.
Xu Ning did not rush in rashly.
He had missed this opportunity many times, so Shen He's father had probably already summoned that monster.
He had never had the experience of fighting a Demon God, so it was better to be more cautious.
He slowly pushed aside the grass that hung down from the entrance of the cave. In fact, he could still see some light inside the cave.
It was a dagger that was emitting a faint silver light. It was tightly held in the hand of a young girl.
Under the reflection of the silver light, a purple-black demon with horns on its head, thorns behind its ears, and a four-armed snake body stood in front of the girl and confronted her.
"Girl, put down the weapon in your hand and obediently become my blood food. This way, your mother can come back.”
The little girl's hands did not move, nor did she move. Even the rhythm of her breathing did not change. Her entire person was like an eternal piece of ice.
Seeing that the prey in front of him had no reaction, the demon snorted and said again,"Girl, look, your mother didn't want you. She abandoned you and died. Your father doesn't want you either. He used your life to exchange for your mother's life. No one in this world wants you. What's the use of you living?”
The monster bared its sharp teeth and grinned,""You might as well give up this body that no one wants and exchange it for your mother. Not only will your death be worth it, but it will also make your father a little happier.”
Xu Ning couldn't bear to listen any longer. He stretched out his foot and tapped the stone wall of the cave.
He suddenly flipped in the air and used all his strength to smash the back of the monster's head with his left hand.
The monster's head exploded like a watermelon that had been hit by a hammer.
Xu Ning shook his hand. The feeling of hitting the demon's head just now was like punching a fist into mud. There was an unspeakable blessing.
After confirming that his wine gourd was not stained with anything disgusting, Xu Ning spat at the headless corpse.
"Dog! This trash has quite a high IQ. He's playing psychological games here! Shen He, don't be afraid, I…"
Xu Ning was thinking about comforting Shen He when he suddenly saw Shen He's eyes. The words of comfort stuck in his throat, but he couldn't say them.
What a pair of eyes!
It was as if all the vibrant colors in the world had been put together and burned to ashes.
The rippling clear pool that should have been filled with lively spring water had now become a dry and dry well without any life.
Xu Ning was silent for a moment before saying,"Shen He, I know what happened today is hard for you to accept, but…"
Before Xu Ning could finish his sentence, Shen He moved without any warning.
The dagger in her hand, which was shining with a faint silver light, instantly stabbed Xu Ning's ribs.
