In the Tranquil Bamboo Forest of Changshan Sect, Su Xinli sat alone on a giant rock, her gaze deep as if contemplating something important.
Moonlight filtered through the treetops, adding a touch of mystery to her thoughts.
Qin Yi approached quietly, not wanting to disturb her contemplation. He sat quietly beside her and softly asked, " Su Xinli, what are you thinking about?"
Su Xinli looked up at Qin Yi with a complex expression on her face, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Master Qin Yi, I'm sure you noticed the battle last time. I want to confess to you that I was raised by a woman from the demon clan. She told me that my mother passed away early, and as for my father... she said he was likely a member of the demon clan."
After hearing the words, Master Qin Yi's eyes showed a gentle expression: "Xinli, I'm glad you spoke up. This must have been very troubling for you, right?"
"Yes, it has been. I've been trying to find the answer all this time. But no matter what, it won't change my loyalty to the Changshan Sect and my pursuit of the immortal path," Su Xinli's voice was resolute.
"Your choice is worthy of respect, Su Xinli. Regardless of your past, the Changshan Sect will recognize you as a disciple, especially since you have been punishing the wicked and helping the people, which is enough to prove your kind-hearted nature," Qin Yi comforted.
Su Xinli nodded, but still had many doubts and unease in her heart.
So, Su Xinli began to search for clues about her origins. She returned to the broken valley where she was born, now deserted and desolate, but to her, every stone and every tree held indelible memories.
In a secluded spot in the valley, she discovered a forgotten little cave. Inside, she found some old items, including a tattered diary that appeared to be from a distant era.
Su Xinli gently opened the diary, which recorded some fragments of her early life and the records of the witch woman.
The handwriting in the diary was blurry, but still discernible, and Su Xinli's eyes gradually became moist.
"She recorded a lot about my growth here... and some things about my mother," Su Xinli murmured, her voice choked with emotion.
The diary mentioned some things about Su Xinli's mother, describing her as an Immortals woman who, due to the twists of fate, fell in love with a warrior from the demon tribe and ultimately gave birth to Su Xinli.
But because of the conflict between Immortals and Demons, they were forced to separate, and soon after, Su Xinli's mother passed away.
Su Xinli closed her eyes, took a deep breath, trying to calm the excitement in her heart. This diary not only revealed a part of her life, but also gave her a deeper understanding and appreciation for the demon woman who raised her.
"No matter who I am, I will always insist on my own path," she said firmly, and then carefully put away the diary.
Back at Changshan Sect, Su Xinli began to focus more on her cultivation. She was no longer troubled by past doubts, but walked more firmly on the path of immortality. Her progress in cultivation was rapid, astonishing everyone.
One day, as she was practicing swordsmanship in the bamboo forest, an elder quietly approached and said to her, " Su Xinli, your current level of cultivation has far surpassed your peers. Have you ever considered seeking out your true origins?"
Su Xinli paused with her sword and thought for a moment, then firmly replied, "I have already learned some things, elder. But I believe what truly matters is what I am doing now, not where I come from."
The elder nodded and smiled with satisfaction, "Very good, your state of mind has reached a very high level. As long as you maintain this attitude, no matter what challenges lie ahead, you will be invincible."
Su Xinli smiled slightly.
During his time at Changshan Sect, Su Xinli's cultivation made significant progress.
She began to realize that the demonic power within her was not just a burden, but also a unique resource, as long as she could control and harness it.
Under the guidance of the elders, she began to explore the mysteries of this power, attempting to find a harmonious way to integrate her Immortals cultivation with the demonic power.
" Su Xinli, you must learn to harmonize with the power within you, rather than resist or fear it," the elder said to her after a practice session.
"I understand, elder," Su Xinli replied, her eyes revealing determination and resolve.
In the days that followed, Su Xinli continued to practice, attempting to find that balance point. She found that when she accepted the demonic power within her with a peaceful mindset, she could more freely perform magic, and even create some new techniques.
This new practice surprised her and gave her a new understanding of her origins. She no longer defined herself as an Immortal or a demon, but as a unique being with unique powers.
With this realization, Su Xinli began to focus on how to combine immortal arts with the power of the demon race, creating her own unique skills. Her practice entered a new stage.
She first focused on understanding the characteristics of fairy magic and the power of the demon race. Fairy magic is elegant and smooth, containing the natural laws between heaven and earth, while the power of the demon race is strong and wild, containing the power of chaos and destruction. Su Xinli began to try to achieve a delicate balance of these two forces within her body.
She created a technique called "Star Element Wind Explosion," which combines the ability to control the wind element in fairy magic and the explosive power of the demon race. When using this technique, she is able to summon a powerful storm, with the center filled with the wild energy of the demon race and the edges controlled by delicate fairy magic. This power has both destructive and controlling aspects, allowing her to adapt flexibly to various situations in battle.
"This is a technique I've never seen before, Xinli, how did you do it?" A senior martial brother asked in amazement as he saw Su Xinli unleash "Star Element Wind Explosion" in the training ground.
Su Xinli smiled and replied, "Senior brother, this is something I created myself, combining the immortal arts within me and the power of the demon race. It's my way of seeking balance, a way for both powers to coexist harmoniously."
