Chapter 629: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 1
When Ruyi opened her eyes again, she found that her entire soul was floating in the endless starry sky, like a lone boat in the vast ocean, drifting aimlessly with the current.
Carefully recalling what happened before, Ruyi only remembered that a light appeared in the sky at that time. She looked up and vaguely saw the tentacles of the Dream Fulfillment System reaching towards her direction, but strangely passed through her soul and fell on the "corpse" on Alice's back.
The tentacle sucked Lisa's body again and again, and after making sure there was nothing, it quickly retracted and flew towards the sky. In order not to stay in this world, Ruyi tried his best to follow the tentacle. The moment he entered the light, he lost consciousness.
"Have I successfully left the world of Resident Evil?"
Ruyi carefully felt himself and found that his consciousness and magic power that had been restricted before had now been fully restored. Not only that, Ruyi closed his eyes and tried to absorb the power of merit, and found that there were thousands or even hundreds of millions of golden merit powers wrapped around his body. Following the source, Ruyi easily discovered that all these merit powers came from one world - "Resident Evil".
Ruyi accelerated the plot progress of "Resident Evil" and successfully made the world where there were only 36 survivors survive to have hundreds of millions of survivors. A survivor provided Ruyi with a merit, and Ruyi was no longer short of merit.
"But, what should we do now?"
The entire universe is boundless, and it is filled with a starry sky made up of one small world after another. Ruyi, a soul emitting golden light of merit, is like a faint firefly emitting a faint glow in the sea of stars, tiny, lonely, and without a place to rest.
Apparently the dream-fulfilling system determined that the corpse was Ruyi. In other words, Ruyi successfully escaped from the control of the dream-fulfilling system by escaping from her shell, but at the same time she had lost her place to return to. With so many stars, Ruyi had no idea which one was her original world.
"Forget it, let's just practice. Things will work out when the time comes."
Although the time spent in the "Resident Evil" world is not as long as in other worlds, for Ruyi, the degree of mental fatigue is completely not on the same level as in other worlds. After working hard for such a long time, Ruyi just wants to have a good rest for a while.
There are three thousand worlds in the great universe, and each world has its own rules. But no matter whether it is the great universe or the three thousand worlds, they all recognize the same rule, that is, God is merciful and kind. No matter whether it is a human, a ghost or an immortal, as long as they have the power of merit, they are good and can be treated preferentially.
This is also the reason why Ruyi, after leaving the "Resident Evil" world, failed to successfully enter other small worlds but was still able to roam freely in the vast universe - merit.
Ruyi felt something in his heart and immersed himself in cultivation, tirelessly absorbing the power of merit in his body. Time passed quietly without him noticing, and the power of merit in Ruyi's body was absorbed and transformed bit by bit into merit meridians, then merit bones, merit skin, until finally the merit was complete.
The former physical clone emitted a bright white light, and under the baptism of the power of merit, it became more and more lustrous and pure, as if it had been reborn and had an immortal air.
When she opened her eyes again, Ruyi had no new memories nor any information about this world.
"Where is this place and who am I now?"
Ruyi opened his spiritual sense and began to explore the surroundings. He looked around and saw nothing but trees. After confirming that he was lying in a deep forest, surrounded by trees and not even a single small animal, Ruyi frowned, "Something is wrong with this place."
Ruyi let go of her spiritual consciousness and opened her eyes. The hilltop in front of her was covered with lush trees, which looked like a vibrant scene. But the strange thing was that although she was deep in the woods, Ruyi could not smell any fresh scent of grass or trees. She only felt a fishy smell in her mouth and nose.
“This mountain… seems to be breathing?!!!”
Ruyi felt it carefully and found that the changes in the fishy smell were regular. After exploring downwards with her spiritual sense, Ruyi determined that the mountain was alive. The fishy smell that she had smelled before was emitting a fishy smell as the mountain breathed in and out.
While he hadn't been discovered yet, Ruyi immediately used his magic to fly out of the mountain. After flying for a long time, he finally saw the foot of the mountain. A village finally appeared at the foot of the mountain. Ruyi didn't want to scare others, so he stopped far away and walked over.
When walking out of the woods and passing the village entrance, Ruyi noticed two crooked large characters engraved on a large stone nearby. After careful identification, Ruyi finally recognized the two characters.
"Montenegro?"
Black Mountain? After learning that this breathing mountain was called Black Mountain, Ruyi's expression instantly turned ugly. As far as she knew, the name "Black Mountain" did not appear in many film and television works. The most famous one was the villain Black Mountain Old Demon in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" or "A Chinese Ghost Story".
The Black Mountain Old Demon is a spirit that has cultivated itself from a ten-mile-long mountain and has cultivation skills of ten thousand years. Not only that, the Black Mountain Old Demon also occupied the underworld and proclaimed himself the King of Ghosts.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it?"
Ruyi tried to comfort herself that she must be overthinking it, it was just a place name or maybe just a coincidence, but when she tried to absorb the spiritual energy in the air, she found that the spiritual energy here was not right either.
Normally, the spiritual energy content in the air in the ordinary world is very low. Only in some places with beautiful scenery does the spiritual energy content become higher. In those worlds, monsters cannot cultivate spiritual intelligence, and humans cannot cultivate to become immortals, but breathing in spiritual energy for a long time can strengthen the body.
Ruyi's original big world was just an ordinary world. The difference was that this world once had a very high content of spiritual energy, and thus gave birth to many spirits and gods who possessed spiritual talents like Ruyi. However, as the spiritual energy disappeared and the times progressed, the way of heaven chose to transform it into an ordinary world. Therefore, there was a rule of heaven and earth that did not allow the formation of spirits after the founding of the country.
However, the small world is different from the big world, and the rules within it are not the same as those in the big world. It was because of this that Ruyi successfully obtained the cultivation method and successfully used merit to create a physical body and a soul.
However, no matter whether it is a big world or a small world, the essence of spiritual energy will not be any different. They are all gathered from the pure energy emitted between heaven and earth, and contain only energy and nothing else.
But the spiritual energy here is different. Not only is the energy content very low, it also contains many violent impurities.
It is difficult for people who practice cultivation to absorb it, and even after absorbing it, it is not easy to use it. It must be performed with the help of blood, mantras and other media. After animals and plants with intelligence absorb it, it is easy to pollute their minds and become bloodthirsty, cruel, and eager to suck human blood.
After Ruyi circulated the power of merit in his body to purify the spiritual energy that he had accidentally inhaled before, he did not dare to continue absorbing it. The most important thing at the moment was to find out whether this Black Mountain was the Black Mountain he thought it was.
