Sima You Yue smiled bitterly. When she woke up, she felt that the spirit energy in her body had become unstable. Especially for the dark energy that was becoming stronger, and was battling the other energies within her for life. Mo Sha had mentioned before, that once light and dark spirits meet, there will definitely be a conflict, and if she is not careful, it would be explosively dangerous.
Senior, is there something we can do?
She asked.
Light and Darkness are definitely enemies of each other, if you force them both into the same space, what do you think the outcome would be? Unless you’re willing to entirely get rid of one of the entities, what else can we do?
Black Fog said.
Remove one of them entirely?
Sima You Yue thought, saying,
I can’t do that.
Then we can’t do anything.
Black Fog said.
You can just await your impending death then. Hahaha I love watching people in the process of death, that feeling is too wonderful.
Sob—
Sima You Yue felt that this punk had a rather unusual attitude, and that it would be best to provoke him as little as possible. When he had finished laughing, he opened his mouth to talk once more,
Actually, if you chose to remove one entirely, you would already have become a pile of bones. Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death don’t deserve to live on this earth!
Sima You Yue’s heart went into panic. Had she just walked around death’s door?
Thankfully you have some guts, seeing that you will be my attendant in the future, I shall help you. Come here.
Sima You Yue did not hesitate and walked a few steps to the front, but a layer of formless ripples blocked her path. She was not afraid that Black Fog would take advantage of her, because if he really had intentions to kill her, she would already have died a thousand times over by now.
This wretched spell.
Black Fog cursed, and said,
Just stay there then. Sit.
Sima You Yue sat down, cross-legged.
The seals within you are already opened wide, and the dark parts have been sealed away for too long, and so they are extremely agitated and active. If you can control and discipline it, you will not be in great danger for the time being.
Black Fog said.
I will just demonstrate it for you once, and if you can’t learn it by then, you can only blame yourself for not being smart enough.
With that, a cloud of black smoke emitted from Black Fog. It crossed over boundaries of the ripples, and threaded through Sima You Yue’s spirit. Sima You Yue felt the black smoke move through her entire body, and worked to control the dark spirit energy in her abdomen as it followed the thread around as it moved. She found that the explosive energy was weakening, and it returned obediently to the pagoda lake, not moving to attack the other energies within her.
The flavour of this place is not bad, and after so many years of calm, you can use it. So, just absorb it.
Black Fog felt the change in Sima You Yue, and Black Fog’s hidden pupils glistened, before it returned to obscurity.
Sima You Yue absorbed all the dark energy into her body, just as she was able to do in the past, and the dark spirit pool that used to be contained in an area the size of her fingernails, enlarged to take up the space the size of a fist. Just when she thought that everything was settled, the five elements started to explode again, and started to attack the dark energy again.
Hiss—-
Crimson Flame screeched, and the other spirit energies returned to their original places. As the spirit energies exploded, Sima You Yue tried her best to control them, her ability to do so still paled in comparison to the effect of Crimson Flame’s single screech. Only when everything inside her was clam, could she close her eyes.
Thank you, Senior.
She bowed towards Black Fog.
With a reason, there is a result; and if we connect the two, today’s reason will create tomorrow’s result, so you don’t have to thank me just yet.
Black Fog said.
Alright, I’ve helped you as much as I could. Return, now.
Senior, I have a question I must ask.
Sima You Yue said.
What?
They said that my seals have broken, and as the energies in my body transformed and resulted in an ability to push back the rivers with a roar… I want to know why that was so.
Sima You Yue asked.
That underground river?
Black Fog was silent for a while, thinking about the reason. Just as Sima You Yue thought that he would not answer the question, he said quietly,
That was not a river, it was a Dark Beast.
With that, he used a cloud of black fog to wrap Sima You Yue, causing her to lose her consciousness quickly. And with that cloud, Black Fog brought her out of the cave.
Your body has the aura of my Dark Kingdom, that’s why that River Beast would retreat with your roar.
Black Fog started to take the form of a human, and looked towards the direction where she was brought out.
So, my Royal Family has another descendant… Hehehe
Sima You Yue could not hear all that he had subsequently said, and when she had finally awoken, she was next the river at Dragon Reflection Mountain. Black Fog, who had wrapped her, had disappeared without any aura behind, and so her body had not a single drop of water on it. The wounds that she had received had already recovered when she was underground, and except for her ruined clothes, all her wounds had already disappeared. She got up and flew into one of the valleys, and upon checking that there was no one, she disappeared into her spirit pagoda.
Master, you are awake.
Little Roar said as he saw Sima You Yue enter, and engulfed her in an embrace, his words full of worry and urgency.
Aren’t I here now?
Sima You Yue patted Little Roar’s back, and the other Spirit Beasts smiled, feeling assured.
You Yue, are you alright?
Sima You Lin had waited at the lands without leaving. In this point of time, he could not see what had happened, so he did not have the mood to look around the spirit pagoda.
I’m alright.
Sima You Yue said.
Did you see that suppressed creature?
Sima You Lin asked.
I guess so.
Sima You Yue said,
But he was covered in a thick fog, and I was unable to see his true form.
So he did not hurt you?
Nope. Like what Crimson Flame said, he helped me a lot.
Sima You Yue said.
How long were we underground?
Half a month.
Little Spirit said.
We were there for half a month?
Sima You Yue was rather shocked, she thought that she was only there for three or five days.
Since everything is alright now, I’ll take a bath and get a change of clothes.
Her clothes were stained with fresh blood, and it was clear that she was rather severely hurt, and had bled a lot. When she returned to her own house, Little Spirit had already prepared wather for her. She added some medical herbs, and removed her clothes to take a bath. Mo Sha floated out from the Devil Snare Bracelet, and Sima You Yue urgently sank her body into the water.
How rude!
She glared at Mo Sha.
Mo Sha said nothing, but became a black fog and bore into her body. After a while, he came out again, and said,
Thankfully it is all stable now.
Sima You Yue’s lips twitched, saying.
What exactly is that seal, it is so unreliable that the person just had to roar twice to allow the dark energy to come again and break the seal.
That was not your average person.
Mo Sha said.
There is a very complicated relationship between the two of you, which is why he was able to activate the dark energy within you.
Who is he?
