The sound of chains rubbing against each other reached Chu Lengyu's ears.
She looked down and realized that she was locked up.
Cold chains bound her hands and feet, and her cultivation seemed to be sealed, unable to unleash any spiritual power.
Looking around, he found himself in a dark and damp dungeon, surrounded by cold, hard stone walls.
The air was thick with a damp, putrid stench, and the only light came through a narrow skylight overhead, weak and hazy.
Scenes flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern.
She failed.
The demons invaded, and the Great Xia world suffered an unprecedented catastrophe. The sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and all living beings perished. And all the disasters seemed to be related to her.
Chu Lengyu was accused of being the beginning of all disasters, a world-destroying witch, and a cold-blooded jinx. Her reputation plummeted, and she went from being a hero in people's hearts to a sinner despised by everyone.
Her image has been maliciously distorted, her actions misunderstood, her achievements forgotten, leaving only various accusations and insults.
In the end, she was ruthlessly locked up.
Water droplets seeped from the dungeon walls, slowly dripping down and making a "drip, drip" sound that was especially clear in the silent dungeon.
Chu Lengyu tried to tug at the chains binding her, but they were incredibly strong and she couldn't budge them an inch.
Her movements caused the chains to rattle, the sound particularly jarring in the silent dungeon.
After losing her cultivation, she felt cold, hungry, and unbearably weak all over her body, and a faint sense of anxiety arose in her heart.
She didn't understand how all of this happened, or why she had ended up in this situation.
But can a mortal lock her up?
Chu Lengyu focused her mind and circulated her cultivation technique, but she couldn't sense even a trace of spiritual energy.
After trying many times without success, she felt discouraged.
Her mind was filled with questions.
But she believed that none of this was true.
This must be an illusion, an illusion created by inner demons.
……
Over the next few days, people came to "visit" her from time to time.
The Emperor of Great Xia had bloodshot eyes and was exhausted.
He was filled with remorse, saying he hated himself for trusting the wrong person, mistaking a demon for a hero, and plunging the Great Xia into an abyss of no return.
Princess Jin'an wept bitterly, kneeling before her and begging her to confess her crimes and spare the innocent people of Daxia.
Her tears rolled to the ground, but they did not cause any ripple in Chu Lengyu's heart.
There was also a messenger of the plague god, dressed in black robes, who swaggered before her and humiliated her to the extreme.
Every word he uttered was like a poisonous thorn, meant to sting Chu Lengyu and force her to submit. However, Chu Lengyu simply looked at him coldly, without a trace of fear in her eyes.
People from the Ten Directions Forest also secretly came and whispered to her to hand over the secrets she was hiding, hoping that she could get a quick death in return.
Their eyes were filled with greed, which disgusted Chu Lengyu.
All sorts of people come and go, but she remains alone in this dark corner.
The jailer only brought one dry, hard steamed bun each day.
Chu Lengyu glanced at it, but still didn't eat it.
The system's voice rang in her ears: "Host, you will die if this continues."
They seemed very concerned and anxious.
She laughed as soon as she heard that.
Anyone who can say something like that is definitely not a real system.
Even if it were a real system, she wouldn't blindly trust it.
Suffering from hunger and cold, Chu Lengyu's body had become extremely weak.
She leaned against the cold stone wall, gazing at the cramped and dimly lit cell, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
She said slowly, "Is this what I fear most?"
The voice was very soft, as if talking to oneself.
She reached out and touched the chains binding her, her pale face showing neither sorrow nor joy.
In the darkness, a giant red python suddenly appeared in the dungeon and silently approached her.
Everyone's eyes glowed red at the same time, like manipulated puppets, as they turned and walked towards the dungeon, filled with malice.
She has discovered the key to her inner demons.
It was at this moment that a loophole appeared that was exploited.
……
Beyond the illusion of inner demons.
The tribulation has passed, and the tribulation clouds are gradually dissipating.
Chu Lengyu's eyes were tightly closed, her face was slightly pale, and a blood-red mark suddenly appeared between her eyebrows, shimmering with a strange and eerie light.
The tribulation of inner demons is like a dream, and no matter how time changes within it, even if it lasts for thousands of years, in the outside world it is only a fleeting moment.
However, Chu Lengyu was unable to wake up immediately.
All of this was caused by the mark left by the plague god, which secretly created obstacles.
The inner demon is a demon, the heavenly demon is also a demon, and the plague god is the supreme among demons, possessing power that reaches to the heavens and the earth.
The Eleven Plague Gods are already top-tier beings in the demonic path. With their methods, influencing a cultivator's tribulation is a piece of cake.
Moreover, leaving a mark means regarding the other party as an enemy, and of course, one must block their path and prevent them from successfully breaking through to a higher realm.
"She's trapped in her inner demons, let's go!" After the fat man in the yellow robe finished speaking, the two people beside him exchanged glances and instantly reached a tacit understanding.
The man in blue was equally decisive. He summoned a pale blue gem in his hand, its light shimmering, and shouted, "Go!"
Although these three Nascent Soul stage cultivators are restricted by the rules of the Great Dao and cannot enter the mortal world, their magical treasures and talismans are regarded as inanimate objects and are not hindered by the gale.
The three magical treasures shimmered with various colors of light and were about to fall upon Chu Lengyu.
The white jade gourd flew like lightning, bearing the brunt of the attack. The remaining golden light of merit blocked the first blow for Chu Lengyu, but it also vanished completely in the next instant.
At this moment, Chu Lengyu was immersed in the tribulation of her inner demons, completely unaware of the dangers outside.
Driven by a burning desire to protect its master, the Lone Sword transformed into a beam of light, standing horizontally before its master.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Two loud bangs.
Although the Lone Sword was temporarily upgraded to the level of a Celestial Sword, its foundation was ultimately unstable.
A temporary advancement in cultivation level is like a rootless duckweed, incomparable to a true immortal sword.
Faced with the combined attack of the Fire Dragon Spear and the Ice Soul Pearl, it managed to block it, but it still emitted bursts of buzzing and its blade trembled.
Upon seeing this, the three men's expressions changed slightly, clearly not expecting that their seemingly certain strike would be blocked.
However, without hesitation, they activated their magic weapons again and attacked Chu Lengyu.
……
In the dungeon.
A giant red python slithered silently, like a phantom in the night, approaching Chu Lengyu step by step.
Its gaping maw suddenly opened, as if to devour her.
At this critical moment, Chu Lengyu turned around, and the chain in her hand instantly blocked the giant python's fangs with a crisp "clang," preventing the python's attack from succeeding.
She slowly stood up, her posture upright, like a pine tree standing proudly in the wind and snow.
The filth on my body seemed to be washed away by an invisible force at this moment, gradually fading away, like a lotus flower washed by clear ripples, unstained by mud.
With a thought, the chains binding her broke inch by inch, turning into specks of cold light and dissipating into the air, leaving only one piece tightly held in her hand.
Upon seeing this, the giant python's eyes flashed with apprehension, and it slowly withdrew its head, its gaze filled with doubt.
These chains were originally shackles on her heart, containing all her negative emotions. Why did she keep such a piece instead of letting them disappear completely into the world?
At this moment, outside the dungeon, more and more people were controlled by an invisible force, gathering like a tide. Each person's eyes flashed with ferocity, attempting to kill Chu Lengyu here.
Chu Lengyu gripped the chain tightly with her left hand, while her right hand reached out and grasped a gleaming longsword.
She herself seemed sharper and more dazzling than the longsword in her hand, illuminating the entire dimly lit cell.
"If the tribulation of inner demons ends, where will I find you?"
As she spoke, she swung her sword down at the giant red python!
The giant python's vertical pupils contracted violently.
