Looking at the half-human, half-snake girl in front of her.
Jiang Li's first reaction was that someone had taken away the sacred mountain autumn painting, and it was probably a snake demon.
He knew early on that the other party had a special physique, a body descended from the highest level of immortals and gods, and would attract some strange monsters, ghosts, and snakes.
In order to protect her, Jiang Li also used the black and white Ouroboros ring he obtained at Rock Ridge to build a layer of protection around her spiritual world.
But now it seems that that layer of protection has long since failed.
Just now, Shenshan Qiuhua was able to escape from his hands for a moment, and the cultivation strength he displayed has far exceeded what a foundation-building monk should have.
Even if her qualifications improve, in such a short period of time, she will at most be able to break through to the level of pill formation. It is impossible to practice to this level in such a short period of time.
Moreover, the current autumn paintings of Shenshan Mountain have a huge snake tail from the waist down, which does not look human at first glance.
The originally beautiful black eyes have now turned into blue and black pupils.
According to a certain theory, heterochromatic pupils represent that there are two souls residing in the person's body.
After moving the flying sword away, Jiang Li stepped forward directly, reached behind the other person with his arms, pressed the little girl's head against his own, and bumped their foreheads together.
The Great Freedom Guanyin Heart Sutra was activated, and Jiang Li's will immediately broke into Shenshan Qiu Hua's mind.
He was also prepared. If the opponent's soul was strong, he would drag in five parallel consciousnesses to attack him.
The black and white Ouroboros ring that he had placed on the periphery of the sea of consciousness had indeed disappeared.
It seemed that the opponent's method was very clever. Even after the seal was broken, he didn't receive any response.
The loopholes on the surface of the spiritual world have been completely repaired and specially reinforced.
But this couldn't stop Jiang Li.
With a little effort, his will broke through the barrier and entered the sea of consciousness.
The clean sky, the thick earth, the round sky and the earth.
There is a vague sense of vitality here, and it looks like a real small world.
The sea of consciousness, which was still quite rudimentary at that time, has now changed dramatically.
Although it cannot be compared with Jiang Li's Daoji, it is already quite outstanding.
Jiang Li moved quickly and soon reached the center of the sea of consciousness.
There, the sacred mountain autumn painting, which is also half-body and snake-tailed, is winding quietly in the center of the earth.
Compared with the outside world, the only difference is whether she is wearing clothes or not.
There is no trace of the sacred mountain in the sea of consciousness, and it is still stained with a lot of transparent mucus.
Beside her, fragments of unknown eggshells were scattered on the ground.
Picking up a fragment, there was a layer of mysterious Taoist patterns growing on it, and attached to it was a power he was familiar with, which was the power of merit.
Jiang Li has seen Jiuyoumu, Flat Peach Tree, and Longzi Baxia who can grow natural Taoism.
It seems that the origin of this egg is extraordinary.
In the sea of consciousness, the Qiu Hua of Shenshan with half body and snake tail should have just hatched from this big egg.
The eggshells on the ground were incomplete, and it was likely that she had eaten some of them, just like oviparous creatures.
"Senior Brother Jiang Li... don't... don't look at me... now."
Covered in egg liquid, Shenshan Qiuhua tried hard to hide her snake tail, but the snake tail was much larger than her human-shaped upper body, making it impossible to hide it.
This expression and tone were very similar to the previous Qiu Hua, making it difficult for him to distinguish the authenticity from the fake.
Jiang Li decided to confirm it himself.
He reached out to touch the soul in front of him, but to his surprise, although the change was great, there was a mysterious and noble aura in the other person's soul.
But its essence is still that familiar smell.
Jiang Li, who practices the Avalokitesvara Heart Sutra and is already an expert in soul seizing, thinks he understands the soul fairly well.
Let alone an ordinary bird occupying a magpie's nest, even if Jiang Li's parallel consciousness re-cultivates a soul by absorbing soul fragments, he can tell the difference.
He was 99% sure that the half-snake autumn painting in front of him was original and authentic.
It's just that it seems to have awakened some special attributes.
"Junior Sister Qiu Hua, is it really you?"
Frowning, after confirming that the sacred mountain autumn paintings had not been taken away, Jiang Li politely withdrew without staying in the other person's body.
Outside, the two people's foreheads were separated.
Jiang Li helped the half-snake Qiu Hua to land on the ground, while the little girl kept her head lowered, feeling inferior to her snake tail and not daring to look at Jiang Li.
I was afraid of seeing an expression of disgust in his eyes, and I didn't know where to start explaining it.
Jiang Li didn't mean to force the other party. It seemed like an accident. Instead, Jiang Li did something bad with good intentions.
"Don't be afraid. You should still be at the critical moment of your practice. We will talk about the rest later. Senior brother will protect you."
He waved his hand, and the wooden portal that had just sealed the earth's veins disappeared, and a wooden palace transformed into another one.
The dense aura of the highest quality rose in the palace, and Jiang Li quickly created an excellent cultivation environment for her.
"Well...thank you, senior brother."
Shenshan Qiuhua had indeed just "broken out of its shell", and before it had time to consolidate itself, it was chopped out by Jiang Li with a sword.
Now, staring big and small can't solve the problem. I can only curl my snake's tail with a red face, close my eyes in place and continue practicing.
I was accidentally interrupted by Jiang Li just now, but fortunately it didn't cause much impact.
In the sea of consciousness, Shenshan Qiuhua picked up the eggshells next to him and continued to put them into his mouth one by one. The ancient bloodline awakened in his body gradually stabilized and consolidated.
What she didn't know was that the snake body from the outside world had unconsciously wrapped around Jiang Li next to her.
It was Jiang Li's rich power of merit that attracted her instinctively.
The transformation that originally took a long time to complete was completed in just three days with the help of Jiang Li's merit.
The ten-foot-long snake body faded away, and what was revealed from the inside were the smooth and slender legs that had returned to form.
Only between her eyebrows, there was an ancient rune mark.
Shenshan Qiuhua woke up and found that his snake tail had disappeared, and a look of joy flashed on his face.
But then she discovered that she was wrapped around someone in an ambiguous posture at the moment, and the lower body she had just transformed into was not wearing anything.
This caused every inch of her skin to be dyed crimson. She buried her head in Jiang Li's arms, and the water and fire spiritual energy in her body collided, like a teapot with boiling water, steam rising from her head.
After rubbing her head, Jiang Li waved her hand to create a long skirt on her body, and then Jiang Li helped her up.
"What happened before was that senior brother was abrupt and disturbed junior sister's retreat. I'm really sorry."
"Also, do Elder Mu and Shenshan Swordsman know what happened to you?"
"If that is Shushan's secret, I shouldn't ask about it. However, if you need any help, you can tell me."
Jiang Li looked at the little girl in front of him sincerely. After a while, she reluctantly raised her head.
"Mom and grandpa don't know yet."
"Senior Brother Jiang Li...I...I don't know what to say."
No matter who it is, who suddenly transforms into a snake tail more than thirty meters long, his mood will probably become complicated, let alone a Shushan disciple whose mission is to kill demons.
After struggling for a long time, Shenshan Qiuhua finally decided to tell Jiang Li everything that happened to him.
"Show brother something, and he will understand."
She shook her storage bag and poured out a stone and her two flying swords of water and fire.
Looking at the stone, Shenshan Qiu Hua's expression was tangled, and Jiang Li's eyes were even weirder.
He seems to have a piece of this stone in his hand.
After half a quarter of an hour of mental construction, Shenshan Qiuhua still reached out and grabbed the stone.
The next moment, the stone melted into the palm of her hand, and the temperament of Shenshan Qiuhua immediately changed dramatically.
Not only that, her figure began to grow taller and became more graceful and graceful.
The corners of his mouth were raised, and his expression became confident and arrogant.
The aura on his body also changed accordingly, and his cultivation level skyrocketed. He soon reached the Nascent Soul level, and was about to break through to become a god.
Then, he reached out and took out two flying swords, under the influence of a strange force.
The red and blue flying swords intertwined in a spiral before his eyes, and soon turned into a beautiful flying sword that Jiang Li had seen before.
The girl held a flying sword of water and fire in her hand, raised her head, and looked down at Jiang Li confidently and charmingly.
"Heir of the Human Emperor, we meet again."
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and circled twice around the slim girl in front of him, looking up and down in admiration.
Does Nuwa Stone actually have the effect of transforming a living person?
"You're a lecher, it's very rude to look at you like that."
"It turns out to be Miss Luoying. I'm sorry. I'm disrespectful."
Jiang Li nodded in agreement, took two steps forward, and then hit the transformed version and Shenshan Qiuhua on the head.
"Okay, it turns out you are the descendant of Nuwa!"
This person was none other than the descendant of Nuwa who appeared in the Shifang Domain in the Land of Ten Thousand Demons at that time.
Looking at her at that time, Jiang Li felt that she looked familiar.
Unexpectedly, after sighing for a long time about how big the world is, it turns out that the mysterious girl is actually beside me?
Jiang Li knocked the Nuwa Stone out for some reason.
Without the Nuwa Stone, Shenshan Qiuhua, who was squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, immediately shrank back to his original shape, and his arrogant and confident expression changed from the shy and youthful one.
Jiang Li stepped forward and grabbed the other person's head and rubbed it. The little girl looked confused when he rubbed it, and then he reluctantly let it go.
This can be regarded as relieving the embarrassment between both parties.
"Okay, okay, Junior Sister Qiu Hua turns out to be a descendant of the famous Nuwa."
"But Junior Sister, how did you know that I inherited the lineage of the Human Emperor and still appeared in Shifang Territory?"
"Also, did you get your inheritance from Shushan? I've never heard you say that before."
Jiang Li remembered that Shushan had been entangled with Nuwa's lineage since ancient times. Several generations of Nuwa's descendants had been married to Shushan disciples.
Perhaps the changes in the autumn paintings of Shenshan Mountain are related to the Five Elements Peak of Shushan Mountain.
Or maybe the fact that Nuwa's lineage is passed down from female to male is an inheritance from Elder Mu?
That's not right. Could it be that Qiu Hua's mother is a descendant of Taolin Mu's family? It doesn't look like she is a hidden master.
Jiang Li made a wild guess on his own, but obviously couldn't guess anything. He could only turn his attention to the little girl again.
"Actually... I don't know what happened."
"After you, senior brother, set the snake ring seal for me, my mother took me back to the Five Elements Peak of Shushan Mountain. At that time, I started to dream about something."
"Then one day, I suddenly woke up on the last floor of the Demon Suppression Tower. There was an extra snake egg in the sea of consciousness, and I also found two Nuwa stones there..."
Only then did Jiang Li realize that it turned out that he was still responsible for it.
It was the yin and yang snake ring that he sealed into the sea of knowledge in Qiu Hua that led to the subsequent changes.
Who would have thought that the snake ring that has always been used as a door lock is actually related to Nuwa's lineage.
After awakening through the black and white snake ring, she found that she seemed to have an extra personality.
The heterochromatic condition of both eyes only appeared at that time.
She now has two personalities in her body. Shenshan Qiuhua, who transformed through the Nuwa Stone, is stronger and has a drastically changed personality. Their memories are not completely connected.
Whenever she holds the Nuwa Stone, she will awaken another personality and do things that she herself is not quite sure about.
Including going to the Shifang Domain, the Land of Ten Thousand Demons, to find Jiang Li, it was as if she was dreaming, and the memory she retained was only one-tenth of one-tenth.
According to what she said, she really didn't know much.
Similarly, another personality also possesses the memories and feelings of the original autumn painting on the sacred mountain.
There were only two precious Nuwa stones in total, but at that time she was able to directly take out one and give it to Jiang Li. The trust in this was shared by the two Qiu Hua.
Later, the transformed version of Qiu Hua, who called himself Luo Ying, wandered around the world of immortal cultivation in the Eastern Region. It was not until the power of the Nuwa Stone was exhausted that the transformed version of Qiu Hua returned to his original form.
It wasn't until today, when Jiang Li found out and caught the bag on the spot, that the secret was discovered.
"It's true...the world is so big and full of wonders."
Jiang Li took out the turtle treasure that had not been used for a long time in the coffin.
He cut a wound on his arm and stuffed the turtle treasure into it.
Immediately, Jiang Li's vision was filled with Baoguang.
In front of him was a human-shaped precious light, which was even brighter than he had ever seen before.
"Perhaps it would be clearer to ask Elder Mu about this matter."
After Shenshan Qiuhua discovered the changes in herself, she did not have the ability to control these changes.
She should have asked someone for help.
But because before, Elder Mu had put a lot of thought into the changes in her body when she was semi-awakened.
For this reason, he also took her back to Mu's house, which she didn't want to go back to.
After returning from the Mu family, the Chongshan Alliance's flying boat was even attacked, killing and injuring many Chongshan Alliance monks.
This made the kind-hearted Qiu Hua blame herself very much, thinking that it was all her fault.
Now her mother has just had peace of mind for a few days, out of consideration that she doesn't want to worry Elder Mu anymore.
Like most people, she hid her changes and didn't reveal them to anyone.
But Jiang Li felt that this inheritance from Nuwa's descendants was not like a simple blood inheritance.
The Shenshan family and the Mu family are no match for the descendants of Nuwa.
Shenshan Qiuhua has not left Shushan much since she was a child. The abnormality in her body may have come from before she was born.
