Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 208 I Will Not Be Involved in Your Karma
Pei Xia was already quite adept at absorbing the inner fire for the fourth time.

However, as the crimson flames gradually stabilized in his mind, Pei Xia's hard-won, stable consciousness in Han Youzhi's sea of ​​consciousness began to tremble again.

The will of the Sea God is too ancient. Without the support of the Calamity Pig, Pei Xia would be in real danger if he relied solely on himself.

Enveloped in blood flames, his consciousness rapidly rose to the surface in the deep sea.

As the darkness faded and the light shone through, he saw the empty eyes of the Brain Man and breathed a sigh of relief: "I have fulfilled my mission."

"It really is true that one thing can subdue another."

The brain-man looked up at Pei Xia and muttered to himself, "But this one in your brain is neither my King Zhou nor the Emperor's wife. Where did this calamity come from..."

The brain-man's voice wasn't soft, but for some reason, Pei Xia heard the second half of the sentence as extremely low and indistinct.

He assumed the sea god had some secret he didn't want him to hear, so he wisely refrained from asking further questions.

Instead, they peered down from the mountain, and beyond that barrier, Han Youzhi's relentless attacks seemed to have stopped.

"My friend, he should be alright now, right?"

The Brain Man nodded: "The fire in my heart was locked inside my body with nowhere to vent, and with the help of the Sea Patrol God's calculation power, I was able to corrupt her at a glance. Now that the blood flames have subsided, she should have returned to normal."

Pei Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, his purpose in risking his life was to save Old Han, and now he has finally succeeded.

"Then about our going out..."

"Just go back the way you came."

At this point, everything should have been settled, and the Sea God had no reason to keep people on his mind.

But the brain-man paused, then suddenly said in a serious tone, “Earth-dweller, I do not know your name or your origin. You entered my belly to find someone, and you found them. You helped me get rid of the fire, and I paid you. We have settled things clearly between us. If you get involved in anything in the future, you cannot take my karma into account.”

Pei Xia stared at it for a while with her eyes open: "What... am I going to get involved in?"

The brain-man remained silent, but with a wave of his hand, a gentle breeze arose, pushing Pei Xia and Lu Li as they floated lightly off the brain.

As the two fell into darkness, the Brain Man sighed in a very human way.

It muttered to itself, "The world within my belly is self-contained, with its own cause and effect. If only I could have another thousand years..."

Sigh, I'm afraid it's too late.

After shaking its head and sighing, it stood up unsteadily, walked to the human-shaped hole in its brain, and lay down inside.

……

Han Youzhi felt like she was in a dream.

There were no nights of slaughter in my childhood, no rivers of blood flowing in the sect, and no panicked despair of being driven out of the Holy Palace in my dream.

She dreamt that she was swinging iron nails and beating Pei Xia hard, and it felt incredibly satisfying!
Unfortunately, the good dream didn't last long. In the blink of an eye, she ran headlong into an invisible barrier.

She didn't know why she was so vigorous while sleepwalking; her head was buzzing from the impact.

Just as I was about to rub it, I saw two figures fall from above.

The two, one big and one small, were actually Pei Xia and Lu Li.

Huh? How did they end up inside the fish's belly too?
Without thinking twice, Han Yuzhi leaped up, first tucking the pear under his arm, then gently wrapped his arms around Pei Xia's waist, which was covered in eight-pack abs.

Senior Huayuan gracefully landed on a thick stone pillar, looked at Pei Xia in his arms, and smacked his lips heavily.

Damn it, a dream is just a dream. I can't even beat up the snake breeder behind his back.

Pei Xia then blushed slightly and let out a soft moan, wanting to bury her face in her senior's chest.

As soon as she looked up, she saw that Lu Li had already taken over a favorable position in the valley. "Why are you here?" Han Youzhi looked around.

Pei Xia looked up and sighed, "It's a long story."

He kept it brief, recounting his experiences along the way to Han Youzhi, omitting only his gains in the Blood River and matters related to the Heart Fire.

As for Han Youzhi, he claimed that he was influenced by the mind of the Sea Patrol God—this giant manta ray was already incredibly powerful, and its level of cultivation was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, so he was not afraid that Han Youzhi would not believe his nonsense.

The main problem is that Lao Han himself has something to hide.

Her memory was still stuck when she bravely climbed to the top, trying to use the mind of the Sea Patrol God and the elixir of immortal guidance to return to the Heavenly Consciousness Realm.

Firstly, it's not something I can easily tell Pei Xia about.

Secondly, since the Heavenly Consciousness Realm involves divine consciousness, it is plausible that it would be affected and lose control.

Han Youzhi discreetly sensed her emerald jade, and thankfully, the precious elixir was still lying quietly inside.

Releasing Pei Xia and holding Lu Li, Han Youzhi sorted out the whole story. With a sudden flash of inspiration, her long eyelashes trembled, and she whispered with a wandering gaze, "Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Pei Xia asked.

Old Han snorted irritably, but a faint blush of embarrassment and annoyance still crept onto his face: "Thank you! Thank you, Young Master Pei, for risking your life and venturing into the Brain Mountain to save me, a mere ignorant junior cultivator!"

The two stared at each other, neither saying a word.

As a result, Pear, who was clutching Lao Han's chest, mumbled, "Wow, your heart rate has increased."

Han Youzhi puffed out her cheeks and pressed her head further into her chest: "Can't shut you up, huh?"

"Waaaaah! Waaaaah... Ugh!"

As Brain Man said, Han Youzhi has recovered as usual, and his journey inside her womb has finally come to a successful conclusion.

Moreover, with the fourth cluster of heart fire entering his brain, the influence of the calamity in Pei Xia's brain has been reduced somewhat. He is now more confident in his control, and he can try to reach the Profound Realm... or even open his own mansion!
This is undoubtedly good news. After landing in Dongzhou, he must put the Liancheng Fire Vein on the agenda. That place was the one he didn't dare to enter lightly when he obtained the fire seed and cultivated the body of fire virtue. Now, naturally, the higher his cultivation level, the better.

In contrast, Han Youzhi was given a wake-up call. Although the spiritual energy in the body of the Sea Patrol God was abundant, it seemed that it was also very risky to try to re-enter the Heavenly Consciousness through it (not really).

"Go down first, Sai Jiu is still waiting outside the gate." Pei Xia stood up.

Han Youzhi didn't ask who Sai Jiu was, but instead asked Pei Xia how to deal with the people in the three villages at the foot of the mountain.

Pei Xia waved her hand dismissively: "No need to deal with it."

He walked in front, while Han Youzhi followed behind carrying pears. Old Han didn't know why, but the tall, thin people in the village suddenly seemed to respect them and made way for them.

"Hiss," Han Youzhi whispered to Pei Xia, "What kind of skill is this?"

Pei Xia replied seriously, "This isn't a skill, it's a story."

Although Han Youzhi had regained consciousness, the aura of the sacred mountain that he had been tainted by was not so easy to dissipate. For the fish people of Sancun who had guarded the sacred mountain for generations, this "sacred aura" was the source of their reverence.

As they passed through the three villages, Pei Xia suddenly remembered something: "We still need to bring Cao Heng along."

Han Youzhi remembered Cao Heng. Judging from Pei Xia's words, Cao Heng should also be inside the fish's belly.

She dismissed it: "Why would you save someone like that?"

"I'm not saving him, I'm afraid he'll cause trouble."

The belly of the Sea God was full of spiritual energy, and its internal organs were particularly mysterious. Although Cao Heng was not as talented as a true genius, he had after all cultivated the twelfth realm of martial arts.

If you leave him here, and he turns out to be a madman and a menace in the future, whether he is born into the world or not, he will bring disaster to the fish-men.

Please take it with you; marine debris is everyone's responsibility.
