The Magical Illusory Vine
Mu Qingwan covered her mouth and asked in surprise, "What, what is this?"
"It should be a demon thing!" Xiao Yi said in a low voice, holding a thin arm of the Demonic Vine.
"I'm not an ordinary demon. Ouch, it hurts so much!" The Demonic Vine said with a grimace. Its tiny eyebrows were wrinkled together, which looked very strange.
"Then what are you?" Mu Qingwan poked out half of Xiao Yi's back and asked in surprise. Women were always able to accept this kind of thing quickly.
"I'm the famous Illusory Vine!" The Demonic Vine struggled to climb on Xiao Yi's fingers. It tried its best to get rid of his hand, but at the same time, it said arrogantly.
"What is the Illusory Vine?" Mu Qingwan looked at Xiao Yi.
"I've never heard of it." Even though Xiao Yi had been in the Cultivation World for hundreds of years, he had never heard of the Illusory Vine.
"Humph, I can change it into any shape I have ever seen!" The Illusory Vine climbed on Xiao Yi's finger and said.
"Oh?" Xiao Yi was shocked.
"If you don't believe me, let me go. I'll show it to you!" The Illusory Vine cried.
Xiao Yi thought for a moment and loosened his grip. The power of this Illusory Vine was extremely low. Otherwise, it would not have been held in Xiao Yi's hands at will and could not escape.
Once the Illusory Vine was free, it first rubbed its arms. Then, with a flash of green light on its body, it changed into the image of Mu Qingwan. Its clothes fluttered in the wind, and its skin was snow-white like a fairy. Even its surprised face was the same.
Xiao Yi looked at the Mu Qingwan on the left, which was always holding his arm, and then looked at the Mu Qingwan not far away in front of him. He couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. The two were really the same, and he couldn't tell whether they were real or not.
The reason why Xiao Yi saw through the change of the middle-aged man was that the Illusory Vine had changed into a golden light and looked very scary, but there was no spiritual Qi fluctuating around him.
How could a caltivatior, who used a magic treasure in a face-to-face encounter, have no spiritual Qi at all? Even if he pretended to be weak and kept a low profile, the magic treasure could not have any spiritual Qi at all, could it?
It was precise because Xiao Yi had seen through this weak point that he dared to try his best to attack.
However, he didn't expect that the power of the Illusory Vine was so weak that it got defeated in one blow.
But at this moment, if Xiao Yi didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't be able to tell whether it was real or not. Mu Qingwan was an ordinary person without any cultivation. There was no spiritual Qi fluctuation on Mu Qingwan, so he couldn't tell.
"How is it? I didn't lie, did I?" The Illusory Vine said proudly. As soon as it spoke, even its voice was exactly the same as Mu Qingwan's.
Mu Qingwan was full of surprise. This feeling was very strange, just like looking into a mirror.
Xiao Yi's shock was no less than Mu Qingwan. He had never expected that there was such a thing in the world. It was said that only when the demon thing had reached the Transformation Stage, it could transform into an object at will. Unexpectedly, this small Illusory Vine's strength was so low that it could turn into a transformation.
It seemed that there were indeed all sorts of strange things happening in the big world.
"Then why did you hide here and pretend to scare us?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice after he was shocked.
The Illusory Vine looked at Xiao Yi, and there was a flash of green light on its body. After a while, it turned into Xiao Yi's image again. In Xiao Yi's unique voice, it said, "The person I transformed into is my master. Seeing you looking at my nest with malicious intent, of course, I want to scare you."
"Your nest?" Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan asked in unison.
"Yes, I used to be a green vine on the cube gourd. I absorbed the Spiritual Energy of the cube gourd all year round, and then I became a demon. I was born there and grew up there, and I never went out of this room." The small Illusory Vine that had turned into Xiao Yi said with grievance, pointing at his fingers.
Xiao Yi looked at the image and felt a chill in his heart. He hurriedly said, "You'd better change back to your original image. Also, where is your master? Where is he?"
"Hey hey, I'm sorry, I haven't seen anyone for a long time. I can't help but want to change." The small Illusory Vine laughed and said with some embarrassment. A green light flashed on its body, and it changed into its original image.
When Xiao Yi mentioned its master, its face was full of sadness. It whispered, "He will never come back. His wife was seriously ill and unconscious. He took her to the cold place in the Far North and froze her. He said that he would look for all the good doctors all over the world to treat his wife."
The Illusory Vine was on the verge of tears. Obviously, it missed its master very much.
"Oh? I didn't expect your master to be so affectionate!" Xiao Yi sighed.
"Of course! He is already at the Late-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm. Before he left, he sealed this place and told me that if someone as affectionate as him was fortunate enough to enter this place, he could take away this cube gourd, which was a reward for his lover in this world. If I ran into a treacherous villain, he let me activate the mechanism so that he could never step out of this place." The Illusory Vine pointed to the place where the gourd was originally placed on the stone table.
There was indeed a very inconspicuous dent in it, unlike the other part of the stone table. If the gourd blocked it, it would be very difficult to detect it.
Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan couldn't help but look at each other, and they saw a touch of luck in each other's eyes.
Xiao Yi couldn't help but ask the Illusory Vine, "How do you know who is affectionate?"
"There is a special mechanism in this room that allows me to see everything outside the Nine-dragon Lake," the small Illusory Vine said. "For hundreds of years, only two people have entered Golden Cave. One is 180 years ago, and a group of cultivators came one after another. Unfortunately, they were all shameless villains who fought with each other. In the end, they all died without my move."
"You are the second group of people who entered Golden Cave. I saw this fairy-like woman accidentally slip into the cold pond. And you, without any hesitation, jumped down to save her. When you reached the centre of the pond, you almost died, but you refused to let go of her. After entering the cave, you even started to treat her before you could catch your breath. When the woman fainted, you did not have any lewd behaviours. I think you should be the gentleman for whom my master said was affectionate." The Illusory Vine pulled its tiny fingers and said seriously.
At the end of the conversation, the small Illusory Vine rose again. After a flash of green light, it actually changed into the scene when Xiao Yi held the half-naked Mu Qingwan and rubbed it.
Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan didn't feel anything when they were in the previous situation. At this moment, when they saw the scene, their faces turned red.
Mu Qingwan's heart was pounding wildly. After taking a glance at it, she turned her face with a blushing face.
"Ahem, little Illusory Vine, you just need to say it, you don't need to act like this!" Xiao Yi couldn't help coughing and said with a red face.
"Hey hey, I'm sorry, I can't help but want to change." The Illusory Vine laughed and quickly changed into its original image.
Xiao Yi looked at the small Illusory Vine again at this moment, but he felt that it was just a simple thing. It was left by its master. It had never seen the outside world, and it was a poor demon that was eager for the outside world. After thinking about it, it apologized to the small Illusory Vine, "I'm sorry, little Illusory Vine, but I was reckless just now. Is your injury okay?"
"Oh, how can it be okay? Xiao Yi, your punch is too powerful. I suffered from internal injuries. It hurts so much. Without three or five years of cultivation, I think I can't recover." When the Illusory Vine mentioned its injury, it couldn't help but frown on its small green face, full of pain.
Mu Qingwan came forward gently, took out the spiritual bead from her arms, and said with a smile, "Let me see if you need to cultivate it for a few years."
"Wow, spiritual bead!" The little Illusory Vine recognized it in the hands of Mu Qingwan at a glance. The spiritual bead could produce plants, so the original body of the little Illusory Vine was naturally a plant. It immediately felt the unique spiritual power from the spiritual bead. Therefore, its small face immediately became smiling and it couldn't help shouting, "Well, this can really cure me!"
Mu Qingwan smiled and put the spiritual bead in front of the small Illusory Vine. Then, she muttered some words and used her unique secret skill that was used to generate power.
After a while, the little Illusory Vine relaxed, and its body became more green. It said lazily, "Oh, it's so comfortable! It's more comfortable than the spiritual liquid fed to me by my master!"
"Haha!" Seeing that it was fine, Mu Qingwan put away the bead.
The small Illusory Vine stood up, and its face was still full of emotions. It stared at Mu Qingwan with its small eyes, full of greed. After thinking for a few seconds, it went to the front of Mu Qingwan and said with its eyes full of expectation, "Well, can I follow you in the future?"
"Follow me?" Mu Qingwan was shocked and could not help but look at Xiao Yi.
Before Xiao Yi could say anything, the small Illusory Vine hurriedly picked up the cube gourd and gave it to Xiao Yi, saying, "Xiao Yi, you've passed my master's test. This cube gourd is yours! However, the gourd and I were originally one, so you have to take me away!"
Xiao Yi looked at the pitiful appearance of the small Illusory Vine and couldn't help laughing. "Since your master has already arranged it, then I will be respectful to you. I will thank you for the big gift first. If you are willing to follow us, it is up to you. However, should you introduce this cube gourd to us first?"
"You agreed? Haha, that's great!" The little Illusory Vine was so excited that it couldn't help but turn over a few times. After landing, it said happily, "Introduce the cube gourd. It's too simple. You can go with me and have a look!"
After that, a green light flashed on its tiny fingers. Xiao Yi and Mu Qingwan felt dizzy, and the scene in front of them had changed. They had already entered the inside of the Square Gourd with the small Illusory Vine.
There was a misty blue sky, a pool of blue water, a square field, a hut with grass, and a few gourd racks. This gourd had such a leisure scene.
