205: Chapter 203: Yu River 205: Chapter 203: Yu River Lin Guiyuan gazed greedily, “Osmanthus cake, sweet.” Unfortunately, he couldn’t eat it; he could only look. His corpse was stiff, having lost the ability to consume food, let alone swallow, even chewing food was difficult. Baili An retrieved the small sword from between his clothes and carefully stored it in the jade created from clear water. Lin Yuan was still not at ease and pulled aside his inner clothing to carefully examine the wound at his heart. He discovered that although the sword mark was fresh red, it had healed, leaving no cracked wound. At this moment, he finally put down the heavy stone in his heart and couldn’t help but ask another very important question, “Si Chen, is that long Blood River now inside your body?” Baili An nodded and said, “I think it should be safer to keep it in my body than in the sword. Now that the Blood River has recognized me as its master, as long as I am alive, no one can take this Mohe.” Fang Geyu said, “The Blood River originates from the Demon World, and no matter which of the six rivers it is from, it is undoubtedly a deep malevolent entity. Even if a Golden Immortal from the heavens inherits the power of the Mohe, it will be assimilated into a demon, changing its nature. Are you…sure you can suppress the demonic attributes of the Blood River?” If he couldn’t suppress it, he would become a hostile, nefarious demon that all of Tianyao would seek to slay. Even she, as the heir of Shifang City, could no longer accommodate him. Baili An was startled, only then recalling how terrifying the malevolence of the Blood River was. Just the Blood River flowing into the Chaotic Demon Sea caused all living creatures in the sea to violently demonize, illustrating how terrifying its influence was. Nevertheless, his consciousness was very clear at the moment, clearer than ever before, and his mood was unusually calm, without the slightest emergence of negative or resentful emotions. “This…I actually feel that the Mohe has little effect on me; could it be because I’m originally a demon? At this moment, the Mohe inside my body feels quite tranquil.” Fang Geyu and Lin Yuan both showed looks of disbelief. “This is impossible; the power of the Mohe can pull any living creature to the Abyss of a destructive nature. Those with strong hearts might be able to suppress and resist, but in this world, there is no one who can be without any influence.” Lin Yuan also strongly agreed with this point of view, “The power of the Mohe is beyond what ordinary people can imagine. I have come into close contact with the Blood Crystal that stored the Mohe. Without touching it directly, just one extra glance made my soul feel like it was imprisoned, and it even drew out a killing intent and malevolence from within me that I couldn’t control.” As she said this, Lin Yuan’s gaze involuntarily revealed a hint of dark fear. Baili An frowned deep in thought, saying nothing. Lin Guiyuan suddenly said, “Young Master need not fret over the incomprehensible matters at the moment; now that the Mohe has recognized you as its master, why not first see which of the six rivers of the Demon World it is?” Baili An found this made a lot of sense. He turned his hand over and held his palm open, and thick Blood Energy swirled up from it, as vast as the Nether River flowing stealthily. Before long, a blood-red Netherworld Mirror formed from the spiritual energy in his palm, its reflection revealing a pair of crimson vertical pupils. That was a black Snake Demon. Witnessing this scene, Fang Geyu sighed meaningfully, “It even reflects a demon; clearly, this is the Blood Feather River ranked sixth among the six rivers of the Demon World, capable of Demon Control.” Blood Feather River. This was not unfamiliar to Baili An; he had learned about the six rivers of the Demon World from the Mountain Realm’s records. Blood Feather River, ranked sixth among the Mohe. It has also been in the sixth position for ten thousand years, while the rankings of the other five rivers have seen minor fluctuations depending on their masters in each generation. Only the sixth river has never surpassed the fifth. The reason is nothing else but the sixth river’s power, which is significantly lacking compared to the other rivers. Demon Control. Blood Feather River, from which millions of Blood Feathers are born, if nailed into the soul of a spirit beast, can enslave the spirit beast for one’s use. However, the spirit beasts enslaved by the Blood Feather are affected by the power of the Mohe, thus losing their original spiritual wisdom and turning into primordial and powerful demons. Unlike the direct assault power of the other five rivers, the Blood Feather River requires one to defeat and suppress the spirit beast before planting the Blood Feather into its soul. Capturing spirit beasts is a time-consuming process, and often the ones caught are weaker than oneself. During the battle, the assistance provided is far less than the power of the remaining five rivers. Lin Yuan curiously glanced at the mirror and said, “To test the six rivers’ attributes, the Netherworld Mirror will reflect the spiritual image of the river itself. By all logic, what the Blood Feather River should reflect is a feather, so how could it be a black snake?” Fang Geyu replied, “Isn’t it obvious? This kid has secretly captured a Snake Demon as a spiritual pet behind our backs.” In Baili An’s memory, he had none of these recollections, nor had he ever encountered any Snake Demon. As he puzzled over this enigma, he suddenly heard Lin Guiyuan’s tone nonchalantly fluctuate as he pointed at the mirror and said, “The mirror…it’s turned silver.” Everyone turned their gaze toward the mirror, and the mirror frame, which seemed to have been cast from molten iron, was slowly peeling and sanding away. The dark decay revealed a gleaming new silver mirror surface. In that mirrored world, the black-colored serpent, along with its scales and eyes, was also gradually shedding its color for a brilliant sacred silver white. The eyes, filled with curses of crimson hue, for some unknown reason, faded into a clear and pristine Holy Gold. Whether it was the mirror casting the shadow of the Mohe or the white snake within the mirror, not a trace of malevolent intention could be seen. Everyone was speechless. Silence prevailed for half a sound. Fang Geyu furrowed his brows and murmured, “Could it be that what was sealed in the Mountain Realm wasn’t one of the six rivers of the Demon World?” Hearing this, Baili An’s gaze shifted subtly, and his fingers rested upon the cold, smooth surface of the mirror. The mirrored white snake danced upon the clouds as if reflecting something, spitting out a bright red snake letter, lightly touching his fingertips across the mirror. Yet, the mirrored object, after all, was only a projection of an illusion, not a physical entity. As they touched, the mirror that had turned from black to silver white suddenly dispersed into countless particles of light and dust. The silver-white specks fell throughout the room in the early morning, adding to its chilly ambiance. Lin Yuan observed this unknown phenomenon quietly for a moment before shaking her head and saying, “It’s absolutely impossible. It can’t be anything else sealed in the Mountain Realm. Guiyuan and I have witnessed it with our own eyes; this is without a doubt one of the six rivers. There’s no reason for Elder Shan to hide or deceive us.” Baili An hummed softly and said, “Although I don’t know the reason, I feel that this is indeed one of the six rivers of the Demon World.” “No matter what, as long as the power of the six rivers doesn’t lose control and run wild, it’s a good thing,” Fang Geyu clearly did not wish to continue delving into a topic that led to no conclusion. “How is the investigation of the theft of the Empress’s secret treasure going in the city?” asked Baili An. Fang Geyu shrugged, “Last night, Jin City was under lockdown all night, causing an uproar. Despite the search, nothing was found. Xianling City, after all, was founded by the Empress and operates under law and order. If nothing is found overnight, on the second day, without solid evidence, they would not continue the lockdown or restrict the freedom of those entering the city.” Baili An nodded slightly without asking anything more. Although it was apparent that the freedom of the inhabitants of the border city was not being restricted at the surface level. But he was also very clear that during such a critical period, no one would be foolish enough to choose this time to hastily leave the city. Anyway, Fang Geyu’s trip last night ended up being a useless endeavor.
