Chapter 435: Torture; Methods to improve mental strength

"Hiss..."

With a sharp pain, Ji Huaxi frowned slightly and finally woke up slowly.

Her memory at this time was still on the Skeleton Plain, the moment when Su Heng suddenly attacked, that damn monster, his kindness was taken for granted.

As for what happened later, she didn't know anything.

Ji Huaxi's heart gradually sank, and she even made some worse plans.

She first looked around and looked at the environment she was in. She found that she was not imprisoned in a dirty and leaking cell as expected, but in a clean and tidy room with wooden floors. There was even a lotus-shaped copper furnace on the table not far away, and wisps of white smoke seeped out. The smell was not strong, and it seemed to have some calming and beauty effects.

She lifted the thin blanket covering her body and walked down from the bed gently.

She stepped barefoot on the wooden floor.

The armor she was originally wearing was taken off and hung on the weapon rack on the other side.

Instead, she was wearing a plain white long skirt that reached her ankles, and she did not feel any obvious discomfort.

"Huh..."

Ji Huaxi covered her chest.

Her heart finally relaxed slowly.

She reached out to touch her armor, but at this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside.

The footsteps stopped when they approached the door, and then there was a rhythmic knock on the door.

"Come in." Ji Huaxi cleared her throat.

Creak!

The door was pushed open.

A young woman in black veil came out from outside.

"Your Highness, the Princess, did you have a good rest?" The woman in black bowed and greeted with a smile.

"I'm in good condition now." Ji Huaxi raised her chin slightly, her charming phoenix eyes narrowed, and said, "I feel like I can blow up the head of a destructive power now."

"That's good." The woman in black seemed to have not heard the threat in Ji Huaxi's words at all, and just congratulated him lightly.

"Our master has always wanted to see you."

"Your master..." Ji Huaxi had a bad feeling in her heart, "Northern Frontier Demon Dragon."

"Yes."

The woman in the black dress said, "Please come with me. Our master's patience has always been not very good."

"At least let me change clothes." Ji Huaxi complained in a low voice, but still followed the woman in the black dress and walked out of the room.

Leaving the room.

Ji Huaxi felt like she was walking out of a translucent barrier.

The air outside suddenly became a lot duller, and a loud rumbling sound came with it.

Through the open window in the dim corridor, Ji Huaxi saw blood-colored lightning and a huge volcano towering into the clouds. Only then did she realize that she was in a world of Changshengtian. How long had she been unconscious, and what happened afterwards... Doubts surged into her heart.

Ji Huaxi opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

The woman in front of her didn't seem to want to talk to her, and she was not the kind of person who liked to ask for help.

Just move forward in silence.

Walking out of the corridor, they came to a hall with black stone slabs outside.

A burly giant wearing golden armor had been waiting here long ago. The two looked at each other, and the giant said to Ji Huaxi, "Please follow me."

Leaving the hall.

Ji Huaxi walked barefoot on the wide street covered with volcanic ash outside.

Surrounded by the city area under construction, each of the surrounding buildings was more than ten meters high, as if specially built for giants. Spreading his perception a little, a bunch of powerful life breaths were fed back into his mind. Ji Huaxi was immediately surprised. How long has it been? So many strong men have gathered under the command of the Northern Frontier Demon Dragon.

Wait until they crossed the street and came to a square at the end.

The flow of people around became more and more dense.

There were eight huge black inscriptions on the square, arranged in the order of the Eight Diagrams.

Under each inscription, there were several or more than a dozen people sitting cross-legged, some of whom were warriors wearing golden armor, in the conversation heard before. She had learned that these warriors were made by the dragon himself, and were its vicious minions and extensions of its evil will. Others were practitioners from all over the outside world.

Unexpectedly.

In this square, Ji Huaxi also saw an acquaintance.

General Shi Teng of Tianshu, both of them were strong men comparable to the world master, with sharp perception. At this time, they looked at each other from a distance, and then looked away at the same time with tacit understanding.

Those inscriptions obviously recorded some kind of skills. With curiosity, Ji Huaxi looked at them with the corner of her eyes.

It was like walking through a dark tunnel and suddenly seeing a ray of light in front of her.

Ji Huaxi was the same.

Just at the moment of seeing those seal characters.

A large amount of spiritual light swept in like a tsunami.

Crack!

The bottleneck that had been imprisoning her for a long time also loosened and cracked.

Ji Huaxi was deeply shocked, and for a while he was reluctant to move his feet.

She waited until the dragon guard in front of her looked back at her with a doubtful and scrutinizing look. Then she blushed slightly, coughed lightly, and pretended to be indifferent and continued to move forward.

"Huh..."

Ji Huaxi took a deep breath.

She lowered her head and swallowed a mouthful of saliva dryly.

Only then did she suppress the horror in her heart.

Just a glance, Ji Huaxi judged that the inscriptions on the tablets were the skills practiced by the Northern Frontier Demon Dragon himself.

Whether it was the Great Zhou royal family or some famous immortal clans, none of them did not guard their core inheritances strictly. Even if it was the true inheritance of the sect or the direct lineage of the family, if they wanted to learn it, they had to go through a series of tests and even set up restrictions.

But Su Heng just made it public so carelessly. Isn't he worried that someone would find loopholes in the skills and target them?

She suddenly thought of the feeling of despair when facing Su Heng.

The little doubts that emerged in her heart also disappeared in an instant.

Keep moving forward.

The flow of people around gradually became sparse.

Ji Huaxi came to the steps of the volcano, surrounded by the glowing lava river.

Under the guidance of the dragon guard, Ji Huaxi came to a reception hall that had just been built not long ago. As the heavy door slowly opened with the groaning of steel, she saw the legendary Northern Frontier Demon Dragon again.

Although it was not the first time they met.

But the last time I saw Su Heng, he was no different from a sadistic monster.

And this time, the one who appeared in front of Ji Huaxi was a human.

Su Heng sat casually on the throne at the end of the room, supporting his head with his hands, wearing a black cloak, and his bronze skin could be seen through the collar. He had a gentle smile on his face, and his raven-gray messy hair hung down beside his ears. But in Ji Huaxi's eyes, Su Heng at this time was even more terrifying and twisted than when they first met.

It was like a huge monster that could not be understood, being stuffed into a human flesh and blood bag.

Although this skin bag had a smile on its face.

This smile was also false in her eyes, but full of indescribable weirdness.

"We meet again, Your Highness the Princess." Su Heng's eyes looked at Ji Huaxi slightly, and he looked like a greedy businessman examining a rare commodity.

Ji Huaxi felt as if a wet tongue was licking her skin, and she almost had goose bumps.

She resisted the discomfort and said, "Thank you for stopping those destructive powers and helping the people of the world to survive this disaster."

"I don't have such great ambitions, and I don't care about the lives of the people of the world." Su Heng's smile remained unchanged, but his voice was a little lower, "The reason I killed them was just because we happened to have some conflicts, that's all."

"Let's not talk about this for now..."

Su Heng retracted his gaze and said, "You made a mistake and caused me a lot of trouble."

"What do you want."

Hearing Su Heng's change of tone, Ji Huaxi's face suddenly showed a vigilant look.

She first subconsciously took a step back, then frowned, cheered herself up, and stared at Su Heng fearlessly.

Su Heng yawned lazily, and a long tail with a skeleton slowly extended from behind him. A young maid holding a huge tray in her hand hurriedly stepped forward, half-knelt on the ground, and raised the tray in her hand above her head. Ji Huaxi felt sick when she saw the contents of the tray. It was filled with bloody demon skulls piled up into a small mountain.

A strong smell of blood emanated, and even red mist lingered in the room.

But Su Heng didn't care.

Like eating melon seeds, he grabbed these skulls with his tail, stuffed them into his mouth, and chewed them up and swallowed them with a crisp sound.

The owners of those heads were obviously extremely powerful demons with strong vitality. Even if their heads were cut off, they were still alive. Ji Huaxi even vaguely heard a few screams when they were chewed up by Su Heng.

"Monster..." Ji Huaxi thought to herself.

But fear inevitably grew, so that her face looked slightly pale.

"You are lucky." Su Heng lowered his eyes and whispered, "Some mistakes, once made, will never be regretted, while other mistakes still have some chance to pay back."

"Although you have caused me a lot of trouble, if you can pay enough compensation, I can forgive this matter."

"If you can't, hehe..."

Su Heng had a smile on his face, but his bloody lips and teeth made people shudder, "You don't want to know this end."

No matter how strong Ji Huaxi behaved, the huge gap in strength could not be ignored. And compared to the lawless Su Heng, she undoubtedly cared about a lot more things. As Su Heng's threatening words, an indescribable huge momentum gradually surrounded her like a cold black fog.

Bang! Bang!

The external environment seemed to be stripped away, and everything became distant.

So that in such a situation, the sound of the heartbeat was so clear and heavy.

Ji Huaxi bit her lip and forced herself to calm down. She looked up, looked into Su Heng's eyes, and said, "First, I need to understand what you want?"

"Drugs to enhance mental strength, precious metals of the same value as dead iron... Oh, I remember that before Emperor Wu died, he was buried with many destructive masters in Changshengtian. If you can bring me seven or eight complete corpses, this matter can be turned over directly." Su Heng snapped his fingers and opened his mouth, revealing unbridled greed in his voice.

"Seven or eight corpses of destructive masters, are you kidding me!" Hearing these requests, Ji Huaxi felt that her head was big.

"This is not something I should consider. If I can't get it together, I can use other resources to offset the bill."

"How much do you want?"

"The amount of psychotropic medicine that a strong Heavenly Man needs to consume to reach the limit of Earthly Immortality is one unit. Let's take a thousand copies first."

"!!?" Ji Huaxi's eyes widened and her breathing became much heavier, "No, you won't be able to get so much even if you sell me."

"Hehehe..."

Su Heng sneered, "I don't care, that's not something I should consider."

Ji Huaxi frowned and wanted to bargain.

But at this time, Su Heng's lazy voice came again, "By the way, I don't know if my subordinates have ever reminded you. I'm not very patient."

"so……"

Su Heng's voice suddenly turned cold, "I advise you to give me a proper explanation as soon as possible."

Boom!

As the power circulated, Su Heng's body was submerged in a large black mist.

At the same time, Ji Huaxi looked at the ground in horror. Amidst the rumbling tremors, the surrounding floor suddenly cracked, and a large number of blood-red worms appeared from all directions, forming a huge ring, slowly moving towards Ji Huaxi's position and compressing.

Ji Huaxi could clearly see the fluff, mucus, and wrinkled body surface of the bugs. An unprecedented fear suddenly surged from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't imagine how bad it would be to have these things crawling all over her body.

"five!"

The house was leaking and it was raining all night, and Su Heng's cold and heartless voice came.

Echoing back and forth in the closed hall.

"Four!"

"three!"

"two!"

"...Wait a minute!" The moment the worm was about to touch the white toes, Ji Huaxi almost shouted in a screaming voice.

"Crack!"

With a snap of fingers.

The rattling worms stopped in place for a moment, and then faded away like a backward tide.

The black mist dispersed, and Su Heng's burly body reappeared on the throne at the end of the hall, with a joking smile on his face, "It seems that people still have to be forced to squeeze out their potential."

Ji Huaxi only felt that her whole body was weak. She crossed her arms to her chest, spread her legs, and knelt on the ground in an inconspicuous manner, breathing heavily.

Until this time.

Only then did she realize that the long skirt on her back was soaked with sweat and her hair was wet.

"You want to quickly improve your mental power in a short period of time." Ji Huaxi looked up at Su Heng, panting and asking thoughtfully.

"Yeah." Su Heng nodded.

"If that's the case, it would be easier to handle." Ji Huaxi breathed a long sigh of relief, with a look of joy on her face.
