Chapter 726: Blood Lake
“It smells so smelly here.”
Xue Molian looked around with disgust.
The Hidden Demon Mountain is full of rocks and strange blood trees growing. The soil on the ground seems to be oozing blood.
Xuansheng also bent down to check. He picked up a trace of soil. It was not red soil, but blood was indeed seeping.
There were indeed great demons in Hidden Demon Mountain. In recent years, many demons may have come and been killed by righteous monks. However, it would be a bit exaggerated to say that the entire mountain range has become like this.
"It seems something is not right."
Xuansheng's tone was solemn and he didn't need his eyes. Xue Molian obediently came to him, which was the tacit understanding he deserved.
"I just extended my spiritual sense and swept through most of the mountain ranges. Is there no trace of demons released? Could it be that some seniors have cleared this place before?"
Xue Molian pinched her nose, and there was an unpleasant fishy smell in the air, and I don’t know where it was emitted.
"I can't confirm it yet, let's go into the mountains and take a look."
Xuansheng shook his head. No matter what, he came, he had come. At least he had to see what was strange about it. There were still many ordinary people hundreds of miles outside the Hidden Demon Mountain.
Previously, they heard people chatting in the restaurant that several villages nearby were slaughtered, and even monks from the Creation Realm came to eliminate demons and were trapped. Their schedule was very fast, and it was a bit low to say that they happened to be wiped out by their predecessors before.
The two of them were not fast in their journey. They walked on the mountain and swept over the spiritual sense again, but they did not find anything.
Xuansheng was fine, a firm Buddha heart was like a rock. He had always been very patient, but Xue Molian couldn't stand it because it was too smelly here.
About three hours later, after Xuansheng climbed to a mountain top, he suddenly raised his hand to signal Xue Molian to stop behind him.
"What's wrong with the stupid monk?"
Xue Molian was confused.
"You can see it yourself."
He looked ahead with a strange expression, and Xue Molian also took a step forward and saw clearly what it was.
The basin surrounded by mountains is a red lake, but it is not the scarlet red with evil smell, but rather the magnificent gem red. From top to bottom, the lake surface looks like a huge ruby.
The lake was filled with a faint red mist, and there were even beasts nearby who came to drink water. After drinking the water, their vitality seemed to have grown a little stronger, and they ran on the ground cheerfully.
If this is a place of opportunity, Xuansheng would not show a strange look, he felt strange that he and Xue Molian had previously searched the entire mountain range with their spiritual sense, but did not find such a strange place.
Even if Xuansheng uses his spiritual sense to explore the lake, he can only feel that it is a barren land. The existence of the red lake is like a mirage, but those beasts are real, and the changes that happen when they drink the lake water are real.
"Go down and have a look."
Xuansheng calmed down his mind, and there seemed to be no danger here. This blood-colored lake is more like the product of the gathering of spiritual energy and vitality in the world, and is a treasure land for any practitioner.
He wanted to get closer and see why this lake could avoid the exploration of his spiritual sense.
It is said that divine objects are hidden and know how to protect themselves, but this is a lake and such a natural wonder. Why are there such self-protection measures?
He and Xue Molian came to the lake. Many small animals saw them running away one after another, but one of them was still running slowly and Xue Molian grabbed his ears, and was hanging in the air and fluttering constantly.
"Female donor, it's not good to play with small animals."
Xuansheng said the Buddha's name and taught the Tao helplessly.
"Silly monk, look at the rabbit so cute, it will definitely be delicious."
Xue Molian showed a little witch smile. The rabbit in her hand was flicking in horror, and her red eyes were rolling.
"Female donor, killing is not good."
Xuansheng persuaded him in a monotonous way, but in fact, Xue Molian and him should eat and drink along the way.
He was so angry that he saw it.
I felt that the vegetarian dishes I ate were a little unsavory, which made him call him guilty and think that his practice was too far from the level.
"Tsk, I'm asking you monks to say that you are hypocritical, saying that sentient beings are equal, so you don't kill animals and only eat vegetarian food, but aren't plants and vegetation no creature?"
Xue Molian put down the hare, and the little guy ran away.
"That's different, plants and vegetation have no mindset."
Xuansheng shook his head.
"If you are not plants and trees, how can you know that you have no feelings?"
Xue Molian pointed to the vegetation on the mountain and said.
Xuansheng was speechless, which was something he didn't expect. In fact, from the perspective of a monk, plants and trees are indeed part of life. After all, plants and trees are cultivated into essence.
"After practicing to cultivate, plants and trees can also transform, they will also speak, they will also have emotions, and they will also have friends."
Seeing that the monk was unconscious, Xue Molian continued, "If this is the analogy, the plants and trees that have been cultivated into spirits are like children born, and then are the plants and trees that have not yet cultivated into spirits really unconscious? Even if they are in an unconscious state, can they be understood as the fetal period of human beings, and everything is nothing and ignorant at that time."
Xuansheng was speechless, as if he was thinking carefully.
"So, you eat vegetarian food, but you actually eat life without the birth of spiritual consciousness. In other words, you are eating..."
Xue Molian's speech was getting faster and faster, but he was interrupted by Xuansheng.
"Amitabha, stop talking about the female donor."
Xuansheng said, "I have already fasted the valley and can eat nothing."
Xue Molian sneered, "Hyit."
Xuansheng was speechless because although he answered this, he actually did not quit his appetite. Whenever he passed by a good place, he would taste local specialty food.
He reached into the lake, a little cold, but it actually had a very refreshing texture. A trace of spiritual energy and vitality were immersed in his body through his skin, and there were even many fragments of the laws of the immortal path.
It is a good place to practice.
"Ah--What are you doing with stupid monk??"
Xue Molian suddenly screamed because Xuansheng suddenly put all the monk's robes on his body directly into the storage room, leaving only some cover for his lower body.
"Ah? Go in and absorb some practice, how can you miss such a treasure land?"
Xuansheng walked into the lake and asked in wonder.
As he said that, he waved: "Female donor, come here too. It's really great. I guess the hidden dangers I forced to break through before can be compensated for a lot."
Xue Molian covered her eyes with both hands, but her fingers that looked like jade were not so tight.
"Who...who wants to take a shower with you."
She stomped her feet, thinking that this dead monk was really shameless. It was obvious that the two of them were here to eliminate the devil, so why did they forget the serious matter?
