Chapter 688: Relief

"Based on the current situation, if Shushu wants to wake up, it will probably take at least five years. Five years, hey... that's really too long. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on." Eyes When he opened his eyes, Huan Yin's eyes were filled with worry.

So far, Ju Magic's performance has gone smoothly, and the treatment of Ruan Shushu has also gone smoothly. However, Huan Yin's inner demons became more and more restless. Especially because Huan Yin often uses himself as a matchmaker to guide the demonic energy into Ruan Shushu's body, some of the demonic energy will always remain in his body. In this way, the probability of demonic obstacles will be greatly increased. Huan Yin's The inner demons are also more unstable.

"Ancestor, what should we do in this situation now?" Huan Yin asked Xue Buping while performing magic gathering with some familiarity.

Xue Buping and Huan Yin stayed in the deep sea for a whole year, and they naturally knew everything about all the situations Huan Yin faced. So, he responded: "Isn't it okay to use those demonic energies to practice?"

Using demonic energy to practice cultivation was a method that Xue Buping came up with for Huan Yin about nine months ago. I have to admit that this method is a good one, and it solved some of Huan Yin's inner demons for a long time.

After all, practicing with demonic energy can make the demonic energy find its place and be consumed. Although practicing with demonic energy will also create demonic obstacles, it is always better than letting the demonic energy stay in Huan Yin's body directly.

But this time, Huan Yin shook his head and rejected the method that had helped him for more than half a year.

"Using demonic energy to practice can consume some of the demonic energy, and even improve my cultivation a lot. However, aside from the fact that the cultivation itself will cause demonic obstacles, now I am becoming more and more proficient in gathering magic, guiding The efficiency of the demonic energy is getting higher and higher, do you know what this means?" Huan Yin's voice came out slightly low.

"Are you saying that the remaining demonic energy you guided can no longer be consumed by cultivation alone?" Xue Buping followed Huan Yin's words.

Nodding, Huan Yin said: "You should also know how strong Ju Magic's ability to gather demonic energy is. With my current level of control over Ju Magic, unless I take the initiative to slow down its progress, the remaining magic will be lost." I can’t use up the energy just by practicing. Moreover, my magic power still has room to grow, so this means that the amount of remaining magic energy in my body will become more and more terrifying from now on.”

"I also thought about taking the initiative to slow down the progress of the magic gathering, but in that case, the time to rescue Shushu will be lengthened. As a result, the time I will stay in the deep sea will also be lengthened. Then, Even if no new demonic energy appears, my inner demon will still completely explode when the time comes."

This time, Xue Buping was silent for a long time before he said in a low voice: "This is indeed a troublesome matter."

After a while, he turned to ask: "How long do you think you can last in this state?"

At this critical moment, Huan Yin was naturally conducting self-examination of his own situation at all times. Therefore, he didn't need to do any more research on Xue Buping's question. He just answered it directly: "Two years, I can hold on for another two years at most. If this continues for two years, I will definitely not be able to hold on." of."

"Two years?" Xue Buping felt a little surprised by Huan Yin's conclusion. However, he also knew that with Huan Yin's strength, his assessment of his situation should not be wrong.

Two years is simply not enough time for Ruan Shushu's current situation. If Huan Yin falls into an illusion two years later, then Huan Yin, Ruan Shushu and even Xue Buping may be in danger. After all, this is the deep sea where ferocious beasts roam rampant.

"If there was a way to consume all the demonic energy in your body, how many more years would you be able to hold on?" Xue Buping didn't know what he was thinking, and asked again.

"If it can all be consumed, then I'm afraid it won't be a big problem for me to hold on for another six or seven years." Huan Yin answered. However, there was one sentence he did not explain, that is, if he was allowed to suffer for another six or seven years, I am afraid that his Suanyi Cauldron would be completely controlled by the inner demon.

"Six or seven years? If it's six or seven years, it should be enough to wake up the fairy. By then, as long as the fairy wakes up, she will be able to protect you. In this way, you can fight against the inner demon with all your strength, and you will not be distracted by the crisis in the illusion. It can be lifted smoothly, don't you think?" After hearing Huan Yin's words, Xue Buping quickly came to his conclusion.

A flash of hesitation flashed in Huan Yin's eyes and he asked: "In my opinion, if the current situation continues, it will probably take at least five years for Shu Shu to wake up. In other words, if she can wake up within six or seven years, I’m not completely sure.”

"Hmph! Do you think that this ancestor is just a freeloader? As long as I'm here to give you some advice, your magic-gathering skills will continue to grow. Do you still think that your magic-gathering skills have reached their peak?" Zai Huan Yin finished his words. At that moment, Xue Buping snorted unceremoniously.

Huan Yin smiled coquettishly, but did not answer. He knew that what Xue Buping said might not be unreasonable. After all, in the field of gathering magic, Xue Buping was the master, and Huan Yin was just the disciple. Xue Buping should know better than him how much growth he can achieve in the next period of time in gathering magic.

Soon, Xue Buping continued, "As long as I continue to guide you, the effectiveness of your treatment of the fairy will continue to improve. Although I dare not guarantee that the fairy will wake up in three or four years, I will definitely wake up in five years!"

"Really?" Huan Yin asked, his eyes brightened.

"If I can't do it, I won't be named Xue!" Xue Buping's decisive voice came out of his mouth, answering Huan Yin's question.

However, just when Xue Buping was quite proud, Huan Yin's attitude suddenly turned cold.

"I've been talking for so long, and I've diverted the focus. Five years, where can I get five years?"

Soon, he subconsciously sighed. After listening to Huan Yin's words, Xue Buping finally realized that he didn't get to the point of the problem at all, so he was a little like a ball that had just been punctured, and he was madly deflated.

However, he soon seemed to find that it was not appropriate for him to be so depressed, so he forced out two dry laughs and said: "That... Second Ancestor, actually you don't have to be too desperate. If you want to consume the remaining demonic energy in your body, well... there must be a way, haha!"

"What way?" Huan Yin asked unhappily.

After thinking for a while, Xue Buping naturally couldn't think of any way, so he could only fool around: "I can think of a way. Don't you still have two years? Maybe in a few days I will come up with some Taoist method that can help you speed up the consumption of demonic energy, then wouldn't it be solved?"

"Humph, apart from practicing to integrate demonic energy into oneself, which can also be regarded as consuming demonic energy, what other methods are there for cultivators? The source of power of your so-called Taoist methods is the cultivator's own cultivation power. When can demonic energy be used directly to perform Taoist methods? If that were the case, there would be so much demonic energy in the world, wouldn't anyone be able to perform great supernatural powers?" Huan Yin was distressed, and his tone was getting worse and worse. Of course, it's not his fault. After all, he is now covered by a layer of black air, which is the best proof that the inner demon is fighting against him all the time. Only he himself understands his pain.

"Bullshit! This old ancestor is a scholar, what have I not seen? There is a kind of Taoism, which is called the second fundamental Taoism of cultivators, which has the ability to change the world! This Taoism... well... that... this old ancestor may have learned it before, but I just forgot it now. But as long as this old ancestor remembers it, I can teach you."

"When the time comes, you can use a little magic energy to improve your cultivation, and a little magic energy to practice the second fundamental Taoism. Isn't the problem solved? At that time, this old ancestor is still afraid that you think the magic energy is not enough!" Xue Buping was also unhappy after being repeatedly scolded by Huan Yin, so he suddenly said this sentence for no reason.

And this sentence was just a casual mention to Xue Buping, the speaker. After all, even if he is knowledgeable, how could he really learn the extremely rare second fundamental Taoism. But for Huan Yin, an obedient person, it was like a thunderbolt.

"The second fundamental law?" Huan Yin repeated these words almost subconsciously, and in his mind, a law flashed out like a meteor with dazzling light.

Spirit descending!

"Why didn't I think of this method?" Huan Yin's face gradually began to show surprise, and even his voice was raised a few points.

In the three realms, it is extremely rare to have a cultivator who has truly learned the second fundamental law. However, Huan Yin was lucky to be one of them. And such luck can just solve his current dilemma!

"Ancestor, you are really a genius!" Huan Yin laughed, but Xue Buping was confused.

However, after Xue Buping understood and Huan Yin's praise, he still shamelessly pretended to be unfathomable and asked back: "You just know it?"
