Chapter 1367: Laws of the Dark World

"Were you just forcing yourself to hold on?" Liu Ruxi asked.

"Yes, otherwise how could I have scared her off?" Chen Yu gave a bitter smile and said, "The wounds on my body are all real, solid injuries."

"Then how are you now? Can you still manage?" Liu Ruxi began to feel a bit nervous.

"Don't worry, I'm still fine, I won't die." Chen Yu took a deep breath, circulated his Primordial Qi through his body for one cycle, and then let out a heavy, turbid breath.

Only now did the Regeneration ability in his body begin to take effect, and his condition slowly started to recover.

As his Primordial Qi completed a cycle within him, the wounds on his body slowly healed; this scene left Liu Ruxi dumbfounded.

"How did you do that?" Liu Ruxi asked, stunned. She had never expected Chen Yu to have such a trick up his sleeve. The wounds on his body were truly real, yet they could disappear inexplicably, which made Liu Ruxi feel it was somewhat incredible.

"Actually, this is nothing, it's just the Regeneration ability. Once you have more contact with me, you will know that these abilities are not rare." Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "Let's go in, we can't let her run away."

"But how is your body? Can you hold up?" Liu Ruxi looked at Chen Yu with some concern.

"You don't need to worry about that, I can hold up." Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "When she first appeared, the Dark Power did catch me off guard, but now my body's Regeneration ability has adapted to her power, so I'm not afraid of her when I see her again."

"Really? Are you sure you don't need to rest for a while?" Liu Ruxi was still a bit uneasy; after all, Chen Yu had been quite seriously injured just moments ago.

Although he looked like a normal person now, those wounds were truly, genuinely there.

"You can put your heart at ease." Chen Yu smiled slightly. He reached out to take some Array Flags and planted them around the cave entrance to prevent Xiaowei from escaping, then turned his head and said, "Do you want to go in together?"

"Yes, I want to go in together." Liu Ruxi nodded. Although she hadn't been able to help earlier, she felt she still needed to make an effort.

"Actually, you don't need to blame yourself; it's not your fault that your consciousness hasn't awakened." Chen Yu smiled and said, "She is Liu Lianxin, and you are Liu Ruxi. Even though you are the same person, your personalities are still different."

"I know, you don't need to comfort me." Liu Ruxi raised her head and said, "Ever since I learned my identity, I've figured it out. I will accept her."

Chen Yu nodded slightly. Liu Ruxi's inner heart was still very strong, and her ability to accept things was also very high. If it were someone else who suddenly learned they were another person, they would probably need a long time to adapt.

But for her to adjust her mindset so quickly, she truly was a person with Buddha-nature.

Chen Yu nodded and led her into the cave. The inside of the cave was pitch black, and after entering, the cold, gloomy aura made one shiver involuntarily.

Turning on their flashlights, the two gradually adapted to the situation inside, then followed the cave, walking forward step by step.

The stone walls on both sides were incredibly smooth, and there were many profound symbols on them.

"What are these symbols?" Liu Ruxi asked curiously.

"I don't know, they should be a type of writing belonging to Dark Creatures." Chen Yu looked at the characters on the stone wall and said thoughtfully.

"Dark Creatures also have writing?" Liu Ruxi asked.

"Yes, the Dark Creatures of the Dark World, strictly speaking, also have their own civilization system, it's just that they are limited to communication and records, and of course, they can't compare to us humans." Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"I don't know what exactly these characters record, but it is true that Dark Creatures are trying every possible way to escape the Dark World," Chen Yu said.

"Why do they want to escape the Dark World?" Liu Ruxi asked, "Isn't that world the world they were born into?"

"Yes, they were born in that world, but in fact, they are just leeks. Once they grow to a certain level, they will be absorbed by the Dark Abyss of the Dark World and become nourishment. Moreover, that place is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao; if they are not careful, they will be wiped out."

"Living in that kind of environment, of course they think about escaping," Chen Yu said.

"So that's how it is." Liu Ruxi nodded slightly, "I didn't expect our world to be a pure land on earth for Dark Creatures."

"That's right, for them, it is a pure land, because they can survive in this world." Chen Yu said, "And compared to them, we humans are relatively weaker and pose no threat to them, so they will rely on this place more and more."

"No wonder, she is hiding in our world, also because she is afraid of being discovered, right?" Liu Ruxi asked.

"Yes, the Dragon Clan has a department specifically for dealing with Dark Creatures, so generally speaking, they don't dare to act recklessly. But Jiang Wei is not a kind soul, so we must find her," Chen Yu said.

Liu Ruxi nodded and continued walking inside with Chen Yu.

At the very depths of the cave, a black shadow flashed, and Xiaowei's figure appeared there. She was panting heavily, her skin gradually turning black, and some things seemed to be on the verge of bursting out from beneath her skin.

Chen Yu's strike just now had been quite serious for her, and she was only forcing herself to hold on to prevent her true form from being revealed.

She panted violently and took a long time to recover.

The environment in the cave was somewhat gloomy, and on one side stood dozens of men who were standing there without moving at all.

These men had black energy entwined around them; this black energy was like a spider web wrapped around their bodies, making them unable to move at all.

Xiaowei beckoned with her right hand, and one man slowly floated to her side. A mass of black energy extended from her palm and attached to the man's brow.

This man's body aged at an extremely fast speed, and a moment later, he became a shriveled corpse.

Xiaowei beckoned with her right hand, and the male corpse fell to the side. She took a few deep breaths, and only then did her body return to normal.

She caught her breath, and only then did her spirits lift.

"You killed someone again?" A weak voice came from the darkness; this voice was precisely Li Jie's voice.

"To you, I am killing, but to me, it is merely nourishment." Xiaowei said leisurely, "We are inherently different, so do not use your behavioral norms to measure my standards."

"But if you live in our world, you must abide by the rules of our world," Li Jie said softly.
