The myth begins with the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 172 Departure
But how could just closing the eyes be enough? The sword intent still did not stop. The bright light seemed to penetrate the sky and the earth, and then invaded the sea of ​​consciousness.

"drink!"

It was not until a low shout was heard that the five fairies broke free. Bewildered for a moment, she subconsciously looked to her side. Unknowingly, Magpie Fairy had stepped forward and stood in front of her, his demonic aura waving, shielding her from the knife light.

The White Snake on the other side was not so relaxed. Although her cultivation was not far from the Yuanshen, the realm was such that a slight difference would lead to a huge mistake. What's more, there was a Green Snake who needed her protection. After just a few breaths, the White Snake could not hold on and was sweating profusely. Fortunately, the sword light also collapsed.

When it was about to touch the restriction, the sword light spread out like fireworks, turning into spring rain and merging into the mountain.

In the small lake, the water waves that were split into two halves collapsed like a tsunami at this moment. The water had unpredictable states and merged seamlessly. After only a short while, the lake surface returned to its previous state of stagnant water with slight ripples.

Everything returned to calm, the weather was sunny and the wind was gentle, as if the sharp edge that had faced him before was just an illusion.

Under the water, Ding Lin suddenly opened his eyes. The long sword that was originally horizontal on his knees had turned into a knife. He stood up, held the knife in one hand, and made a knife flower with a satisfied look on his face.

The sword energy just now was just a response to the long sword turning into a knife. Now holding the hilt with one's own hands, it was naturally a different feeling, a feeling that was no less than that of being connected by blood, an extremely close fit, as if one's arm had been extended.

This sword was shaped by Ding Lin after dozens or hundreds of adjustments to suit his own shape.

With such a magical weapon in hand, Ding Lin's normal combat power can be increased by at least 30%.

After feeling it for a while, Ding Lin put away the long sword. At this point, all preparations have been completed. It is impossible to significantly improve his strength in a short period of time. After a little hesitation, he jumped and came to the shore.

The five fairies had just calmed down a little when their vision blurred and Ding Lin appeared outside the tree house.

"You're out of seclusion." The fifth fairy's face lit up with joy and she walked out of the tree house.

"Mountain Master."

"Owner."

The white snake and the green snake also swam out of the cave and came closer.

The white snake's eyes have returned to clarity. After a few days of practice, the side effects of absorbing the dragon's blood have mostly subsided. Although some remains, it has no effect on its thinking. Its address has also changed back to being docile and respectful, as if everything is still the same as before.

But things have happened after all, how can they really remain unchanged?

Although her actions were different from those of other monsters, the White Snake had also risen from obscurity and was accustomed to selfishness and indifference. She had never met someone like Ding Lin who was willing to spend his mind and energy on her. In another time and space, in Xu Xian's previous life, a good deed of the little shepherd boy would be remembered by her, not to mention Ding Lin's repeated rescues now.

As for Ding Lin's subsequent methods which seemed a bit cruel to ordinary people, if things had developed as they were, for Xu Xian, the two snakes would have flooded Jinshan Mountain. The Green Snake could be said to have never taken mortals seriously and had no burden, but what the White Snake did undoubtedly violated her own ideals. It can be seen that her kindness is only when it does not involve herself. It is a tool for seeking the truth. Also, growing up in an environment surrounded by monsters since childhood, how could she have kindness from the heart? It was just self-restraint.

The white snake looked at Ding Lin, and its gaze seemed to stay a little longer than before.

As for the Green Snake, her personality is normal for a demon. She is disdainful and arrogant towards the weak, but shows awe towards the strong. Ding Lin is undoubtedly a strong man to her, but he is a little different. Ding Lin has done her a great favor, and after shedding his carp body, Ding Lin has the appearance of a dragon, and his bloodline is suppressed. Over time, this awe turned into worship.

The Green Snake is usually cheerful and lively, but behaves very well in front of Ding Lin. She follows the White Snake obediently and even a little restrained.

Ding Lin did not notice the slight change of the white snake. His eyes stayed on the five fairies for a moment. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he clenched his hand and the seal with cracks all over its surface appeared in his palm. Originally, Ding Lin planned to bring the seal with him, which would be a little help, but things would not always remain the same. After releasing Zhao Sheng's true spirit, Ding Lin checked it and determined that after repeated overload use, the seal had really reached its limit. If it was not nurtured, it would probably break after a while.

That being the case.

Ding Lin looked at the white snake.

The white snake had already lowered its head slightly.

"Xiaobai, I see from your aura that you are not far from the complete transformation of your soul into yang. You need help the most right now. I will allow you to use the spiritual energy of this mountain at will. Also," Ding Lin seemed to be thinking for a moment, "I will leave the divine seal and hide it in the ground for you to use temporarily. With this divine seal as a proof, you can also mobilize the power of the earth veins. With this as a supplement, your cultivation should be three times faster. I hope that by the time I come back, you will have completed the transformation of your soul into yang. Then, I can protect you in your attack on your Yuanshen."

Since you can't take them away, just stay and train your subordinates.

Ding Lin waved his hand, the demonic energy surged, and he pushed the divine seal into the peak. The divine seal sank impatiently, and moved along the earth veins until it hid in an inconspicuous corner. Then it stopped and began to carefully heal the cracks, just like a puppy that had been abused by its owner, curled up into a ball, and licked its wounds silently.

"Guard the door for me!"

Ding Lin said.

"Yes."

The white snake responded, her head slightly lowered, her black hair scattered on her forehead, covering her somewhat complicated eyes.

"Let's go."

Ding Lin explained everything, glanced at the five fairies, and then set his sights on the magpie fairy behind her. The magpie fairy's injuries had recovered, and at Ding Lin's signal, the magpie fairy transformed itself into its true form and allowed Ding Lin and the five fairies to step on her back.

In the earth veins, the divine seal spun around and opened a passage at the top of the peak without Ding Lin's control.

The magpie fairy flapped its wings and soared into the sky.

The white snake raised her head, and in just a flash, the man and two monsters turned into black dots and disappeared from her sight. The white snake still kept raising her head. The sunlight was dazzling. She watched the clouds rolling and unrolling. After the man and two monsters rushed out, the formation quickly closed with the surging clouds.

In the earth veins, the divine seal seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, spun around again, and completely relaxed, revealing a look of joy.

"elder sister."

The green snake called softly.

The white snake withdrew its gaze, its face still cold and without any other emotion.

Silently.
