See the Evil Spirit Again
Chapter 112 Goodbye to the External Evil
The next two days were spent on the aftermath.
Li Wuxiang figured out where Zhao Kui's incense came from after Cheng Shengfei destroyed the Taiyi statue--
After Cheng Peixin invited the door gods, many residents in Deyang City were trapped at home as she said. She asked Cheng Shengfei to prepare water in advance, but there was also a special picture of the Kitchen God in the water.
The water sent by Feiyun Temple could not satisfy the trapped people's food and drink, so when they were hungry and thirsty, those people began to worship the Kitchen God, which was actually Zhao Kui.
These pictures needed to be destroyed, but fortunately, Feiyun Temple stepped in, so this matter was not difficult to handle.
After Guo Jianming's soul returned to his body, he had not been awake, so Li Wuxiang waited for two days. On the third day, Lu Renjia arrived at Feiyun Temple and asked Cheng Shengfei if he wanted to go with her, but Cheng Shengfei refused.
She felt that since Li Wuxiang had promised to teach Guo Jianming the sword sect's skills before, he should be considered half a swordsman. But this half swordsman died in Feiyun Temple, so she had the responsibility to wait for him to get better before doing her own thing.
This answer made Lu Renjia quite satisfied, so satisfied that she agreed to Li Wuxiang's request - after Guo Jianming woke up, she would take him away temporarily to examine his character and teach him the skills.
So on the evening of the third day, Li Wuxiang said goodbye to Cheng Shengfei and planned to set off.
During these two days, in addition to waiting for Guo Jianming to wake up, he was waiting for the people in Deyang City to reshape the Taiyi statue in the martial arts temple. He attached his divine thoughts to the statue again, and his willpower once again flowed into his body. This time, there was no Zhao Kui to grab the incense, and the speed of the gathering of the essence in his body was extremely amazing, and he had completely reached the stage of "refining qi into spirit".
Originally, he was still worried about the main medicine called "Guozhong", but from the Shijie Collection, he knew what it was - just a termite nest over a hundred years old.
Dry the part of the termite nest on the ground with fire, and then wash it repeatedly with water to get the "Guozhong". With the help of the medicinal materials he bought in Deyang and obtained from Feiyun Temple, he can enter the realm of "refining qi into spirit" through the method of medicinal bath.
So it is not difficult to obtain the "Guozhong". Before leaving, he rode a horse in the city and got it. But the reason why he did not enter the next realm immediately was because he was waiting for someone.
Because from the Shijie Collection, he figured out something he had been puzzled about for a long time: Incense and vows are so useful, why don't everyone use it?
The Shijie Collection said that this method actually belongs to "heterodox".
In the early stage, if there is a way to let yourself absorb vows, it will indeed make your cultivation advance by leaps and bounds. Because in the foundation-building stage, everything you get is to temper the body.
But when it comes to the stage of forming the elixir of the thirty-six sects' skills, or the stage of "refining qi into spirit" in the realm of refining qi of the sword sect's skills, the power absorbed by the practitioners begins to be used to temper the primordial spirit.
The thirty-six sects' skills, from the initial stage of refining qi to the peak of refining qi, are actually not very difficult. Once you enter the door of refining qi, you will have forty years of youth and life. During these forty years, if your aptitude is not too bad and you have sufficient consumables, you can almost reach the peak before your youth is exhausted, and get another twenty years of time, so these people don't need to take this unorthodox path.
And those with poor aptitude, whether they are casual cultivators or sect disciples, will not be able to get the method of cultivating vows, and they can't take this path even if they want to.
Only a very few practitioners will try this method because of a chance encounter or a last resort. It's okay in the stage of tempering the flesh, but when it comes to forming the elixir, problems arise.
Incense and vows include countless distracting wishes of mortals. When practitioners obtain this power, they will form one cause and effect after another. Since mortals have limited abilities, it is impossible to satisfy people's wishes like gods. Therefore, once this power enters the Yuanshen during the process of forming the pill, evil thoughts will arise immediately, and all illusions will not disappear. In an instant, they will go astray.
The "Refining Qi into God" stage of the True Immortal Body Dao Chapter is to gradually refine the innate Qi refined in the "Refining Essence into Qi" stage into the Yuanshen, which is actually equivalent to a long preparatory stage for forming the pill.
If Li Wuxiang directly asked himself to enter this realm at this time, it would lead countless causes and effects into the body, and it would bury a huge hidden danger for future cultivation-only at this time did he realize that Zhao Kui's methods were really linked together. He had become a bead in the illusion of Ranshan, but left a big pit!
So the person he was waiting for was the external evil.
The last time he appeared, he defeated Zhao Kui. This time, he defeated Zhao Kui again and joined the Sword Sect again. If the offering it wanted was really something like "becoming stronger", it should have come now.
He walked and waited until he reached the ruins where he first met Lao Guo, when the evil spirit finally appeared.
But this time, Li Wuxiang was in a state of meditation in the bronze mirror.
Cheng Shengfei handed him the Xuanguang mirror and taught him how to take a person's soul into it and leave. Because of the illusion of Ranshan, he couldn't use the broken brick in his hand for a while, so he took himself into the bronze mirror when he rested in the wild.
Here, there were still whispers of resentful ghosts from Lingshan, but Li Wuxiang ignored them all and just kept himself in a state of clear consciousness, which was similar to a short rest and could restore some energy.
In such a clear and empty space, that kind of overwhelming sense of grandeur appeared.
And he also felt that he saw something!
It was already late at night outside, and the entire mirror was pitch black without any light. But at the same time that feeling appeared, Li Wuxiang felt that a clear light appeared in front of his eyes - as if at a certain entrance, an extremely strong light was shining in, and a slightly human-shaped thing was standing there. entrance, so the light changes, vaguely reflecting the outline of the thing, constantly changing and flickering.
Then he felt that he heard a voice, as if he was talking to himself in his heart - "This is not a good place to meet. Next time, we shouldn't meet here."
Li Wuxiang suddenly felt his heart beating wildly!
This should be what Waixie said!
He has always wanted to know more about this external evil, but all he got from the beginning to the end was "feeling". But now, not only did he see the light, but he also heard the voice in his heart. Although it was just his own voice, it was finally not just his own voice. Accepted!
Now the external evil is interacting with me!
Is it because you are inside the bronze mirror that you are neither in Lingshan nor in the Yang world?
However, what excited him was not only that, but also another feeling that this contact brought to him - the grand, hollow, and huge sense of oppression that enveloped Waixie. Just because of this sentence, he felt His heart immediately collapsed!
It can talk!
It has a body!
It can be understood!
Li Wuxiang suppressed this excitement and said in his heart: "I'm curious why you haven't seen me. I killed a Zhenxing Cult leader before and became the leader of Ranshan Sect. It's not considered a success for you. Two big things?"
After saying this, he immediately smiled in his heart: "It's not the right way."
Not the right way? Waixie thinks those two things are no big deal?
Li Wuxiang immediately started racing with thoughts in his mind - he had previously thought that the external evil wanted to sacrifice himself to become stronger and stronger. But now, judging from his answer, there is a specific path recognized by Waixie for "becoming stronger"... Sect Master Ranshan is not within that path.
So--
"Is the Sword Sect the right path?" Li Wuxiang asked immediately, "Because I joined the Sword Sect, you came to see me?"
There is no response this time. Is this the default? Does he want to take advantage of Jian Zong?
Li Wuxiang sighed: "As before, if you explain things more clearly, we will save a lot of trouble. Okay, then I have another thing for you to help - I have learned from the real immortal In the Ti Dao Chapter, we are now going to the stage of refining Qi and transforming into God, but I inhaled the power of incense before, what should I do about this? "
This tone was casual and could even be called disrespectful, but Waixie didn't seem to care about this and immediately gave him the answer——
"I can use external force." Li Wuxiang said to himself in his heart, "This kind of thing is so simple, I didn't think of it, it's really stupid. Wouldn't it be great to find something that can suppress the inner demons? In this world, to talk about Suppression is naturally what Wuyue Zhenxing Sect is best at. There are still many people in the world who are Is there anything thicker than mountains? I'm so stupid that I didn't think of such a thing... Oh, I've seen that thing before, it's the true shape map of the Five Mountains - I can't get this one, but I can get another one like this The magic weapon in Daosheng’s hand should be enough for you before forming the elixir!”
In his previous life, he had never heard anyone call him "stupid". But now that he had been scolded twice in a row, Li Wuxiang felt happy again - compared with when he first came, Waixie's temper seemed more flesh and blood.
Maybe it’s really because I’m in the mirror at this moment… In such an environment, I’m closer to “itself”!
So Li Wuxiang said in his heart: "Okay, thank you, I understand. And... I was originally going to the territory of Zhenxing Dao. When I get there, is there anything I should pay attention to? For example, Zhenxing Dao The great emperor or god worshiped by Taoism? "
"Be careful not to be stupid." He thought to himself, "Zeng Jianqiu told me that if some swordsmen find out that I am not a human being, I will be in big trouble."
This foreign evil seems to be a bit vindictive. But he didn't remind himself to be careful of "Tai Yi" - if Tai Yi was really suppressed in the True Form of the Five Mountains.
Li Wuxiang also wanted to test it - ask him if he wanted to provide a tablet for the god since he was already familiar with it.
But the clarity and sense of grandeur suddenly disappeared, as if the external evil had just accidentally thought of him, rushed over to help him solve a problem, and then immediately went back to its own affairs.
Li Wuxiang stayed in the mirror for another quarter of an hour before grabbing a spiritual thought in the darkness - a blood-red figure with minimal will power. Then following the power of the wish, he plunged into the void, emerged from the pool of blood in front of the ancient cave, and came to Lingshan Mountain.
He has been in the Xuanguang Mirror during his breaks these days, not all for "safety", but because of the few words Zhao Puppet said in Lingshan before.
——If you were in the world of the world, your external evil spirits would be here instantly if you thought together, but now that you are here - do you know that external evil things also live in Lingshan? He comes from the upper heaven to come to this sea of blood to save you. Guess how long it will take?
If what Zhao Puppet said is true, this time the external evil should have come from the "upper heaven" he mentioned, to the "sea of blood" where the ancient cave is located, and then entered the mirror. He has been asking Zhao Qi to stay in the ancient cave these days. If this guess is true, Zhao Qi should have seen it!
Li Wuxiang stood on the land of flesh and blood in Lingshan Mountain and immediately looked towards the ancient cave——
In the past few days, Zhao Qi has been practicing in the ancient cave, relying on the incense that Li Wuxiang provided him from time to time.
Normally, he would sit upright in the cave just like Zhao Puppet did before, meditate and adjust his breathing just like he did when he was alive. Although it still looks like a bloody human figure, the previous resentment has dissipated, and now the blood on the human figure is relatively smooth. If you don't look closely, you will only feel that the face is peaceful and not very scary.
But now, when Li Wuxiang looked into the cave, he saw Zhao Qi slumped in the ancient cave like a frightened man, with two pairs of bloody eyes wide open, and his mouth that was cracked to the bottom of his ears was not closed. , a truly frightened and inexplicable look.
Li Wuxiang immediately ran to the cave, lit three incense sticks and threw them into his arms, then patted his face: "Hey! Did you see it? What did you see!?"
Zhao Qi slowly turned to look at him, speechless for a moment, as if he was stupid.
At this time, Li Wuxiang noticed something unusual. The land of flesh and blood around the ancient cave has always been entangled with the tumbling, squirming, and twisting remains of resentful ghosts. They emit endless screams and moans from the ground, which are incompatible with those coming from further away. The sounds together formed the harsh wind in Lingshan Mountain.
But now, the ground around the ancient cave is only bloody - the remains soaked in blood and pus are all motionless and tightly connected together, as if they want to squeeze in as much as possible and scream. Others are exposed. It was also at this time that Li Wuxiang realized that the surrounding area was eerily quiet, and the howling wind became distant and misty, as if something had just dispersed it!
He immediately squatted down, pinched Zhao Qi's face, and told him to face him. Then he sent the essence to his throat and blew on him for a long time.
Zhao Qi's body suddenly bounced, and he shuddered as if waking up from a nightmare.
Li Wuxiang asked him again: "What did you see just now!?"
Zhao Qi stared at him with a pair of bloody eyes, and after a moment, he murmured——
"Taiyi... Taiyi..."
"...I saw Taiyi! The external evil you mentioned is Taiyi!"
I want to explain the update time. The reason for the unstable updates in the past two days is due to some external factors. The neighbor is renovating, and I don’t know which house has a dog that is barking, so I didn’t sleep well. As a result, it happened to be that the next stage of the plot had not yet been completed, and my mind could not move, and I was still anxious about updating. Suddenly I became more anxious, and I became crippled by coding.
In fact, I should have been aware of this problem yesterday and should have pushed back the update time. It turned out that I was able to solve it. At 8 o'clock today, I realized that I had not finished it. I have only finished writing it now.
So on the 22nd, which is tomorrow morning at 0:05 am, I will postpone the update until 18:00 pm, so that I can have time to think about it again.
In this way, until now, I still owe an update of one chapter and two thousand words. If the update on the 22nd goes well, the update the day after tomorrow will return to normal according to the previous time, at 00:05 and 8 o'clock in the morning.
