Chapter 454: Dual Personality (2)
In his consciousness, Shenshan Qiuhua picked up the eggshells beside her and continued to send them into her mouth one by one. The ancient bloodline that had awakened in her body gradually stabilized.
What she did not know was that the snake body in the outside world had already unconsciously wrapped around Jiang Li.
It was the dense power of virtuous merit in Jiang Li’s body that attracted her instinctively.
The transformation that originally required a long time was completed in a short three days with the help of Jiang Li’s power of merit.
The hundred feet long snake body faded away, and what was revealed was that it had already returned to its smooth and slender legs.
An ancient rune mark appeared between her brows.
Shenshan Qiuhua woke up and discovered that her snake tail had disappeared. Joy flashed across her face.
However, she then discovered that she was currently wrapped around someone’s body in an ambiguous posture. Moreover, the lower half of her body that had just transformed back was not wearing anything.
This caused every inch of her skin to be dyed crimson. Her head was buried in Jiang Li’s arms, and the water and fire spiritual qi in her body collided. She was like a pot of boiling water that emitted wisps of steam on her head.
He rubbed her head and waved his hand to create a long dress on her body. Only then did Jiang Li help her up.
“I was rude earlier. I’m sorry for disturbing Junior Sister’s seclusion.”
“In addition, do Elder Mu and Sword Head Shenshan know about your matter?”
“If that’s the secret of Shu Mountain, I naturally shouldn’t ask. However, if you need any help, you can tell me.”
Jiang Li looked at the young lady in front of him sincerely. After a long time, she barely raised her head.
“Mother and Grandpa don’t know yet.”
“Senior Brother Jiang Li… I… I don’t know what to say.”
No matter who it was, suddenly transforming into a 30-meter-long snake tail would probably make their mood complicated, let alone a Shu Mountain disciple who was responsible for slaying demons.
After hesitating for a long time, Shenshan Qiuhua finally decided to tell Jiang Li everything that had happened to her.
“Let me see something and I’ll understand.”
She shook her storage bag and poured out a rock and her water and fire flying swords.
Looking at the rock, Shenshan Qiuhua’s expression was conflicted, and Jiang Li’s gaze was even stranger.
He seemed to possess one of these rocks too.
After half an hour of mental preparation, Shenshan Qiuhua still reached out and grabbed the rock.
In the next moment, the rock fused into her palm. Shenshan Qiuhua’s aura immediately changed drastically.
Not only that, but her figure began to grow, becoming graceful and moving.
The corners of her mouth curled up, and her expression became confident and arrogant.
The aura on her body also changed along with it, and her cultivation skyrocketed. Soon, she reached the Nascent Soul realm and was about to break through to the Soul Formation realm.
Then, she reached out and grabbed two flying swords.
Under the effect of a strange force, the red and blue flying sword intertwined in front of her eyes just like that, and it quickly transformed into a beautiful flying sword that Jiang Li had seen before.
The young woman held the water and fire dual-colored flying sword and raised her head, looking down at Jiang Li with confidence and charm.
“Human Emperor’s successor, we meet again.”
Jiang Li’s brows raised, and he circled around the graceful young woman before him twice before sizing her up and clicking his tongue in wonder.
So the Nüwa Stone actually had the effect of turning into a living person?
“Lecher, it’s impolite to look at me like that.”
“So it’s Miss Luo Ying. I apologize for my disrespect.”
Jiang Li nodded and took two steps forward. He knocked his head on the head of the transformed version of Shenshan Qiuhua.
“Amazing, so you’re actually that successor of Nüwa!”
This person was none other than the successor of Nüwa who had appeared in the Ten Directions Region in the Land of Infinite Demons.
At that time, Jiang Li felt that she looked familiar.
He did not expect that after sighing about the immensity of the world, the mysterious girl was actually beside him?
With Jiang Li’s knock, the Nüwa Stone was knocked out again for some reason.
Without the Nüwa Stone, Shenshan Qiuhua, who was hugging her head and squatting on the ground, immediately shrunk back to her original size. Her arrogant and confident expression also changed to its original shyness.
Jiang Li stepped forward and grabbed the other party’s head again, rubbing it until the young lady was dumbfounded. Only then did he barely let it go.
This eased the awkwardness between the two sides.
“Alright, alright. So Junior Sister Qiuhua is the famous descendant of Nüwa.”
“However, Junior Sister, how did you know that I inherited the bloodline of the Human Emperor and even appeared in the Ten Directions Region?”
“In addition, did you obtain your inheritance from Shu Mountain? Why haven’t I heard you mention it before?”
Jiang Li recalled that Shu Mountain had been entangled with the Nüwa lineage since ancient times. There were several generations of descendants of Nüwa who had been in-laws with the Shu Mountain disciples.
Perhaps the changes in Shenshan Qiuhua were related to the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak.
Or could it be that it was Elder Mu’s tradition that the Nüwa lineage only passed down women but not men?
That could not be right. Could it be that Qiuhua’s mother was a descendant of the Mu family of the Peach Forest? It did not look like she was some hidden expert.
Jiang Li guessed blindly, clearly unable to guess anything. He could only place his gaze on the young lady again.
“Actually… I don’t know what happened.”
“After Senior Brother helped me set up the snake ring seal, Mother brought me back to the Shu Mountain Five Elements Peak. At that time, I kept dreaming about something.”
“Then, one day, I suddenly woke up on the last level of the Demon Subduing Pagoda. A snake egg appeared in my consciousness, and I found two Nüwa Stones there…”
Only then did Jiang Li know that he had a part to play in this.
It was the Yin-Yang Snake Ring that he had sealed into Qiuhua’s consciousness that triggered the subsequent changes.
Who would have thought that the snake ring that had always been used as a door lock was actually related to the Nüwa lineage?
After awakening through the Snake Ring, she discovered that she seemed to have an additional personality.
The strange dual-colored pupils in her eyes also changed at that time.
The current her had two personalities in her body. After she transformed from the Nüwa Stone, Shenshan Qiuhua was stronger and her personality had changed drastically. The memories between them were not completely interlinked.
Every time she held the Nüwa Stone, she would awaken another personality and do something that she did not know.
Including the matter of going to the Ten Directions Region to find Jiang Li, she felt as if she was dreaming. The memories she retained were less than 20%.
According to her, she indeed did not know much.
Similarly, the other personality also had Shenshan Qiuhua’s memories and emotions.
There were only two precious Nüwa Stones in total. At that time, she was able to directly take one out and give it to Jiang Li. The trust here was shared by the two Qiuhua.
Later on, the transformed Qiuhua, who called herself Luo Ying, roamed the cultivation world of the Eastern Region. It was not until the power of the Nüwa Stone was exhausted that the transformed Qiuhua returned to her original state.
It was not until today that Jiang Li discovered and grabbed it on the spot that he discovered the secret.
“Really… there are all kinds of strange things in this world.”
Jiang Li took out the turtle treasure that he had not used in the coffin for a long time.
He cut open a wound on his arm and stuffed the turtle treasure inside.
After that, Jiang Li’s vision was filled by the treasure light.
In front of him was a human-shaped treasure light that he had never seen before.
“Perhaps we should ask Elder Mu about this.”
After Shenshan Qiuhua discovered the change in her body, she did not have the ability to control this change.
She should have asked for help.
However, because of the change in her body when she was half awakened, Elder Mu had put in a lot of effort.
For this, she even brought her back to the Mu family, which she was unwilling to return to.
After returning from the Mu family, the Great Mountain Alliance’s flying ship had even been attacked, and many Great Mountain Alliance cultivators had died.
This made the kind Qiuhua feel very guilty, believing that it was all her fault.
Now that her mother had only been at ease for a few days, she did not want Elder Mu to worry anymore.
Just as most people would have chosen, she hid her changes from everyone.
However, Jiang Li felt that this inheritance of Nüwa’s descendant did not seem to be inherited purely through bloodline.
The Shenshan and Mu families were completely unrelated to the descendants of Nüwa.
Shenshan Qiuhua had never left Shu Mountain since she was young. The abnormality in her body might have come from before she was born.
