Chapter 186: Ancient Forbidden Technique

In a cave on a desolate mountain, Chen An rode his sword and landed in front of the cave entrance. He sheathed his sword and walked in unhurriedly.
His divine consciousness was blocked, so he could not sense if the woman in the purple dress was still inside.
He would only know when he walked in.
In the cave.
Hearing footsteps outside, the woman in the purple dress, who had fallen asleep against the cave wall, opened her eyes and woke up.
She was instinctively frightened.
Chen An quickly walked up to her and said calmly, “How’s your stay here?”
“Young Master, I’m begging you. Can you let me go?”
“As long as you can let me go, we’ll be even. Everything in the storage ring will be yours!”
“In my 18 years of life, I’ve never lied to anyone!”
The woman in the purple dress leaned against the cave wall and sat up from the ground in a sorry state. Her beautiful eyes were no longer as high-spirited as before, only extremely humble pleading.
She had been pampered since she was young. She could not stand being locked in a small black room for a day.
Born as a human for eighteen years? This fox demon was so young?
Chen An was surprised by this, but he was more shocked.
She was already at the intermediate stage of the Golden Core realm at the age of 18. She couldn’t have reached that stage even if she had started cultivating when in her mother’s womb.
He was a little suspicious and used his divine consciousness to test the bone age of the purple-dressed woman.
In the end, he realized that the other party was not lying.
She was really only 18 years old.
She was even younger than his wife, Song Huaying.
Chen An was even more shocked, and then he felt helpless.
It was indeed different to reincarnate well.
This fox demon was probably born privileged because her parents were powerful.
However, her grandmother seemed to be only in the Nascent Soul realm?
Was it because her grandmother was not old?
Chen An had many doubts in his heart, but he was not too conflicted.
With a thought, he moved a flat stone from outside the cave and placed it in front of the purple-dressed woman as a chair to sit down on.
He looked at the beautiful face of the woman in the purple dress and asked, “You just said that you were born eighteen years ago, but aren’t you a fox demon? Why do you call yourself a human?”
The woman in the purple dress retorted, “My father is a human Cultivator, and 1 was born in human form. If I’m not human, what am I?”
“A beast-eared girl.”
Chen An’s voice was calm. After saying that, he said, “Or rather, a transvestite.” “Whatever you say. How can you let me go?”
The woman in the purple dress did not want to stay in this dark cave for a moment. Every second was torture to her body and mind.
Chen An said expressionlessly, “I’ll ask and you’ll answer. If I’m satisfied with your answer, 1 might consider letting you go.”
“What do you want to know? 1’11 tell you everything I know.” The woman in the purple dress saw a trace of hope of returning home, and her tone immediately became a little anxious.
This was an eighteen-year-old ignorant girl. She was so easy to deceive…
As he thought about it, Chen An asked the first question. “What’s your name? Where are you from? What are you doing here in the Redwood Forest?”
He asked a question, but there were actually three of them.
The woman in the purple dress answered truthfully, “My name is Jiu Ji, and I’m from the Nine-tailed Mountain of the Mountain Sea Demon Realm. When 1 heard that the various races of the Mountain Sea Demon Realm were coming to the Redwood Forest, 1 knew that the Redwood Forest was the territory of the human race, so I secretly followed them out of curiosity.”
The pampered eldest daughter of the demon race ran out without telling her parents because she was bored at home?
What kind of classic Disney princess plot was this?
Would she fall in love with a low-level human male Cultivator next?
Although Chen An was complaining in his heart, his gaze was fixed on Jiu Ji’s eyes to see if she was lying.
Well, there’s no sign of lying. What this fox demon said was true.
Chen An continued to ask, “How are your father and mother’s cultivation levels?”
“I’ve never seen my parents since 1 was born.” Jiu Ji said calmly, “However, according to my grandmother, my parents’ cultivation realm seems to be in the Soul Formation realm.”
Orphan? No, she still had her grandmother.
It was a pity that her parents were at the Soul Formation stage of cultivation. If that man and fox were still alive, this fox demon would probably be able to do whatever she wanted.
Chen An continued to ask, “Your name is Jiu Ji. Do you have eight sisters above you?”
There were no males in the fox demon race. They were all beautiful female fox demons.
Jiu Ji shook her head and said, “1 don’t have an elder sister or a younger sister. 1 was born with nine tails, so my parents named me Jiu Ji.”
Born with nine tails?
No wonder she could reach the intermediate stage of the Golden Core Realm at the age of 18.
Chen An was secretly shocked.
Then, he asked again,
“According to my understanding, you fox demons rely on breast milk to survive before you reach adulthood. When you reach adulthood, you rely on sucking essence energy to survive. You don’t need to eat ordinary food. Is that true?”
“It is.”
Jiu Ji nodded. She was displeased with Chen An’s claim that she was a fox demon.
Her bloodline was more human, and she preferred to be labeled human.
In this world, almost all demons were the same. They liked to approach the word “human”.
In the following period of time.
Chen An kept asking questions, and Jiu Ji kept answering.
More than two hours later, the question and answer session ended.
Chen An got all the information he thought of.
In conclusion, Jiu Ji was a young girl whose parents were missing. She had been spoiled by her grandmother since she was young and was well protected, causing her to be more willful and ignorant of the dangers of the world.
The reason why he secretly followed them to the Redwood Forest was mainly because he wanted to see the outside world and interact with human Cultivators. He also wanted to experience the wonderful feeling of absorbing essence energy..
