Chapter 77 Liu He Blocks the Road and Retreats Into Seclusion

Wu Yi left Wang Chuchen's cave in the morning light. At the foot of Mingdao Peak, Wu Yi was blocked by a disciple.

Looking at the person in front of him, Wu Yi frowned and said, "What do you want?"

The man's knees softened and he knelt directly in front of Wu Yi. This kneeling immediately attracted the attention of the disciples and warriors who happened to pass by. The warriors left quickly, while most of the disciples slowed down their pace. A small number of disciples stood there motionless, watching the development of the matter intently.

The disgust in Wu Yi's eyes became stronger and stronger, and he said coldly, "Liu He, don't make a mistake."

Liu He and Wu Yi had only met twice. The first time was when Wu Yi first listened to the master's lecture. At that time, Wu Yi didn't know Liu He's name. At that time, Li Tian taught Liu He a lesson after class, and Wu Yi first knew Liu He's character.

The second intersection was when Liu He reported Wu Yi's absence from school when Wu Yi was angry, which attracted Sun Zhijie. Wu Yi was also arranged to go to Dahuai Town to break into the ghost cave. This incident almost killed Wu Yi, but Wu Yi was greatly tempered because of this. If he had stayed in the mountain gate and practiced all day, he might not even be qualified to practice in the inner gate now.

When Liu He pushed Wu Yi into danger for his own selfishness, he also indirectly pushed Wu Yi to climb the difficulties and obstacles of practicing Taoism, but Wu Yi did not have the slightest idea of ​​thanking Liu He for this. If it weren't for the existence of the black beetle, he would not be able to keep his life now. I'm afraid he would have been sucked dry by the ghost.

After Liu He knelt down, he slapped himself several times and said repeatedly: "Junior Brother Wu, no, Senior Brother Wu, I was blind and offended you before, please let me go." After that, he kowtowed to Wu Yi again and again.

Wu Yi had long known that Liu He was a bully who feared the strong and the weak. He was not moved at all by his kneeling and kowtow. It was just that the meaning implied in Liu He's words seemed to be that he was still dealing with Liu He. What was going on? Wu Yi had been immersed in cultivation. After he reached the peak of the fourth transformation, he had long forgotten that there was a person named Liu He. If Liu He had not appeared in front of him, he would not have remembered the past.

Liu He should hide in the corners and not let him see him now. When Wu Yi entered the inner gate, he would naturally get out of trouble. Wouldn't it be unpleasant to come to him at this time? Wu Yi was a little confused.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, and Wu Yi immediately understood why Liu He asked to let him go. Although Wu Yi did not come forward to deal with Liu He, there were many people who heard that Liu He and Wu Yi did not get along. For those disciples who wanted to make friends with Wu Yi but suffered from not having any relationship with him, it would be a good idea to use the bullying of Liu He to vent Wu Yi's anger as a stepping stone.

With Wu Yi's rising popularity in the sect, Sun Zhijie and his generation all stopped their efforts and dared not take the initiative to offend Wu Yi. Of course, the deep-seated reason behind this was that Wang Chuchen had obtained the Great Pill of Dao. The two sides were no longer on the same level. It was impossible for Wang Chuchen to be as patient and yielding as before. Wu Yi was influenced by Wang Chuchen to a certain extent.

Without the support of professors and deacons like Sun Zhijie, Liu He, a disciple who had not even completed the third and fourth transformations, was still a delicacy in the eyes of the wolves.

Liu He was self-inflicted. The fruits of today were all the results of the causes he had planted in the past. Wu Yi had no intention of abolishing Liu He. Every move had to have a purpose, just like Li Tian had taught Liu He that Liu He had betrayed and deceived him.

Wu Yi would not do such a thing as simply venting his anger for himself. Of course, if this breath had become Wu Yi's inner demon obsession, it would be another matter. However, Wu Yi had never taken Liu He seriously from beginning to end. It was useless to teach him a lesson, but he left a cruel name in the sect.

Teaching Liu He a lesson in the end may lead to Liu He suffering even more. Seeing that Wu Yi really hated Liu He, those disciples who wanted to cling to Wu Yi would only think that this was the right path and would make things worse.

Seeing that Wu Yi was indifferent to his apology, Liu He panicked. He thought that Wu Yi was not satisfied with his apology, and he did not dare to hug Wu Yi's legs and wipe his snot and tears like a shrew. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Since Senior Brother will not let me go today, I have to exchange my remaining life for Senior Brother's forgiveness." Before he finished speaking, he slammed his head hard into the ground.

Wu Yi was immersed in thinking, and it was too late to get up to help. Seeing that Liu He was about to hit his head on the hard bluestone slab, Wu Yi could only say in a hurry: "Stop."

As if it was the morning bell and evening drum, the disciples watching the show around him seemed to have heard a thunderbolt from the blue sky. Their spiritual consciousness rushed out with the Dao Yun, stopping Liu He in front of them, but they were directly hit by the Dao Yun. Liu He fainted and collapsed on the ground. Wu Yi's Dao Yun left his body, and his mind was also exhausted. His face was pale and he almost couldn't stand steadily.

This was the first time that Wu Yi used the Dao Yun, which was originally only used to calm his irritable mood, to the outside. Wu Yi didn't know that he had opened up a new path for his Dao Yun. From then on, Wu Yi's Dao Yun was no longer used internally, but could be used both internally and externally.

In the future, when Wu Yi recalled this time, he was also very fortunate. He didn't expect that an important step in Dao Yun cultivation would be taken like this.

The application of Dao Yun to the outside world is an important feature of Jindan Zhenren. Great supernatural powers such as moving mountains and seas, chasing stars and chasing the sun are all the external application of Dao Yun. It is the ultimate Dao, changing the world and creating the world.

If there are still some people who can comprehend Dao Yun below Jindan, there are very few who can apply Dao Yun to the outside world.

It seems that people who have realized the Dao rhyme of the great Dao of fire, when used internally, it can speed up the absorption of fire spirit energy and promote the progress of fire-related exercises, and when used externally, it can repel other heterogeneous Daos. Unless the quality of the burned things is extraordinary, the original form cannot be seen at all. For example, woodcutters can easily distinguish what kind of wood is burned from the wood ash, and the same is true for the spiritual fire of cultivators. If the Dao rhyme is used externally, it cannot be seen at all.

It seems that the inner cave opened up by the great cultivator is the extension of the Dao rhyme, and a piece of heaven and earth with the same Dao rhyme as his own is replaced by the heaven and earth.

If this step is taken below the Jindan, the Jindan tribulation is not easy, but Wu Yi doesn't know this now. Liu He is still lying there. As the person closest to him, Wu Yi's suspicion is not ordinary, and he can't get rid of it anyway, but in the eyes of everyone, Liu He is more like being scared to death by Wu Yi's shout.

Wu Yi himself thought so too. He even suspected that Liu He was faking fainting in order to gain his sympathy. However, after sensing with his spiritual sense, Wu Yi found that Liu He's breath was subtle and slow. If he was faking fainting, his breath would not be like this. Of course, it is also possible that Liu He practiced a magic like the turtle breathing technique, which could have created such an illusion. In order to prevent being deceived, Wu Yi also sensed Liu He's blood circulation. In the end, he accepted the result that Liu He was "scared to death" by him with a smile.

A ray of spiritual energy was injected into Liu He, which went straight to his forehead. Liu He was startled and woke up immediately. Seeing his embarrassing appearance, he didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Don't bother me." Wu Yi left directly after saying this. It was really a troublesome thing. He even played a trick of threatening to die. It was too much into the play.

Liu He stood up, not even able to shake off the dust on his body. He stared at the direction where Wu Yi left and was silent for a long time.

After Wu Yi left his sight, he followed his companions and left. Some of the disciples who were watching were friends invited by Liu He. Although they were just friends who only cared about drinking and eating, they could not help much, but they were good for show. Before Liu He's companions could accuse Wu Yi of being unkind, things changed so dramatically that they were also stunned.

Returning to his cave, Wu Yi quickly put the matter behind him. Liu He's fate was not Wu Yi's but his own. Even if there were disciples who made friends with him because of this matter, they did not have to have too much contact with this kind of people.

Back in the cave, Wu Yi could finally practice with peace of mind. He did not have to recite the scriptures in addition to meditation and breathing like before in the restaurant. When he could erase the scriptures engraved in his sea of ​​consciousness, he would be considered to have memorized them completely.

In densely populated areas, Wu Yi did not dare to practice too deeply, for fear that once he got the opportunity to be promoted, it would be unsafe. Unsafe did not mean that people from the upper realm would come to disturb him, but that the noise of people would make this rare opportunity lost.

Searching for the scriptures engraved in the sea of ​​consciousness, he got four books on the first floor of the Sutra Pavilion and two books on the second floor. Each of them is worth practicing. Which one to practice first? Wu Yi thought about it and made his own decision, Shadow Escape.

Although he returned to the Taoist temple and was protected by Wang Chuchen, the Yuan family had almost no chance to assassinate him, but Wu Yi would not put his hope on others. It was still necessary to strengthen his own strength.

Before thinking about victory, think about defeat first. This is Wu Yi's habit. He thinks highly of his opponent, so that he will not be caught off guard when the opponent uses some backhands. Since he is defeated, he must maintain the name of being undefeated. In a fight, defeat often means death.

What is undefeated? It means not being defeated in a head-on collision. This requires extremely advanced escape techniques. Sword cultivators mainly practice sword techniques, but they don't necessarily spend much less time on escape techniques. This leads to other cultivators who cannot defeat sword cultivators and fall into a situation where they cannot retreat, and are finally worn away.

Wu Yi opened the half-open stone door. Practicing Shadow Escape requires light. The shadow appears because the body blocks the light. Without the physical body, there will be no shadow. There is some truth in the saying that ghosts have no shadows. Ghosts were originally fierce ghosts. They were transformed by the lingering spirits and absorbed some Yin Qi. They are Yin bodies, and light can pass through them. But once the ghosts light up the Yang fire and turn Yin into Yang, they can also form shadows.

Looking at the shadows reflected on the ground, Wu Yi silently recited the formula in his heart. He was not very skilled. This was the first time he practiced it. In the past, he just recited it silently.

As the formula was spoken like flowing water, Wu Yi felt a tearing feeling in his mind, as if something was separated.

Tortured by the tearing feeling in his mind, Wu Yi felt that he could not hold on, so he stopped temporarily and continued to practice after recovery.

Repeating this way, the formula was about to be finished.
