"Senior brother, what are you doing here? You don't want to take the eggs away, do you?"

After a moment, Ji Fan suddenly saw Yue Qing rubbing his chin around the spirit beast egg in front of him, and his eyes showed fiery color from time to time, and he immediately asked dumbfounded.

"Of course, this is a high-grade spirit beast with unlimited potential, if Nirvana succeeds in the future, it will be a rare king spirit beast, how much help it will have to be. ”

"I'm afraid that when it wakes up, it will tear you apart as soon as it defiles it. Ji Fan rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said.

"Hehe, every time the spirit beast nirvana is a new life, everything starts from scratch, and it will not remember the past when it is poured, like the newborn little beast, the person it sees at first sight is regarded as the closest relative...... Anyway, why can't you hold this egg?" Yue Qing worked hard for a long time, but found that the egg did not move at all, as if it was inlaid on the stone platform, and he suddenly felt strange.

"Really?"

Ji Fan raised his eyebrows in surprise, curious and wanted to try, he prepared a lot of strength, but the result was like hugging a ball of foam, and he easily picked up the whole spirit beast egg, and because of too much force, inertia made him fall back and sit on the ground, and suddenly he raised his eyebrows and stared at Yue Qing, who was stunned.

"Aren't you playing tricks? ”

"Damn, how can this be ......" Yue Qing's face was full of disbelief, and asked suspiciously: "Why do I feel so heavy......

He tried again, but still didn't pick up the egg, and suddenly stared at him in confusion.

And understanding that Yue Qing was not deliberately teasing, Ji Fan smiled, laughing a little gloating, he looked at the quiet spirit beast egg in his arms, and said proudly: "Maybe I look more likable." ”

Yue Qing was tired for a while when he heard this, he frowned and kept scanning Ji Fan up and down, until he saw the hair in his heart, and then asked, "Do you have anything special about you?"

"No ......" Ji Fan put away the joke, glanced at the egg lying quietly in his arms, and shook his head blankly.

"That's... It's really .........."

Yue Qing was confused, he couldn't figure out the reason for this, and finally had to let Ji Fan bring the egg, Ji Fan couldn't put it down, and stroked it in his arms for a while.

"Senior brother, how long does it take for this spirit beast to attain nirvana?"

"It's been a long time, at least a year and a half, and at most a hundred years......" Without the 'approval' of the spirit beast egg, Yue Qing was a little excited.

Ji Fan shook his head in disappointment when he heard this, thinking that he would be able to get this help soon.

"What to do next, this spirit beast holy mountain is not very easy to descend, I don't know how many mature high-grade spirit beasts have inhabited in front of this. ”

"It's okay, the spirit beast egg you are holding in your arms was also a first-class spirit beast before Nirvana, and now in Nirvana, there is also a trace of the breath of a king spirit beast, as long as we are not too unlucky, those spirit beasts should be able to avoid this breath when they smell it. Yue Qing pondered for a moment and said.

"What if you don't?"

Yue Qing glanced at him and spread his hands, the meaning was self-evident.

......

The cold wind outside the hall was howling, like a terrible ghost roaring, and the wind and snow blew in from under the hall door, Ji Fan shivered, and stepped forward to close the door tightly.

"It seems that we can't go today, let's rest here today, and wait for tomorrow to go down the mountain at dawn, maybe if we're lucky, we won't be able to meet a spirit beast." Yue Qing smiled, explained and walked out, and walked back covered in snow and frost for a long time, still holding a bundle of firewood in his arms.

"Next time, I have to bring you Senior Brother Ye Lin with me, at least I don't have to work so hard to make a fire. "The firewood was contaminated with frost and snow and was difficult to ignite, Yue Qing suddenly missed Ye Lin's fire attribute a little, and it took a long time for the choking black smoke to rise slowly.

Ji Fan sat aside, watching him busy with the affairs in hand, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Senior brother, have you ever thought that maybe one day by chance we will die unexpectedly in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, ...... Aren't you afraid?"

"Huh. Yue Qing smiled.

He raised his head and saw a slight emotion on Ji Fan's immature face, and grinned: "Why do you ask that?"

"Because since the experience, I always feel that you are very confident, very determined, not afraid of death, maybe tomorrow we will die, you also act very indifferent, maybe you don't even have the feeling of suffocation in the face of death. ”

Yue Qing smiled slightly when he heard this, and he was also a little more serious, and said, "...... If you want to get power, you have to pay some price, even if the next second is death, at least you have worked hard to fight for it. ”

"Even at this price, don't you regret dying accidentally?"

Yue Qing thought for a while and didn't seem to know how to answer, and after a moment he glanced at the egg in Ji Fan's arms, and pointed: "Do you see if this spirit beast will regret it, for the sake of the future, it is willing to turn away all its memories and all its strength, from that king to a small beast, starting from scratch just to go further, do you think it will regret it?"

Ji Fan looked down at the egg lying quietly in his arms, shook his head, and didn't know what it was like in his heart.

"Let me also ask you a question, have you ever thought that one day you will die of depression in mediocrity?"

"Mediocrity and strengthening......" Ji Fan was shocked, and there was a thunderbolt falling in his heart, and his heart was numb.

Yue Qing stepped forward and reached out and pressed his shoulder, looked down at him with a slightly sideways face, and said, "The reason why you have such thoughts is because you have no direction in your heart, your cultivation path is aimless, and you are just helplessly following the system of this world. ”

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, didn't you long to gain strength and prove yourself when you first went down the mountain to practice?" Yue Qing let go of his hand and sat down on the side.

Ji Fan woke up suddenly when he heard this, a strong sense of suffocation surged up from his heart, his fists clenched suddenly, he remembered that at the beginning of the experience, just the day before he went down the mountain, he was humiliated by Fengyu and suffered from Ye Hong's cold eyes, at that time he was decadent, powerless, and slaughtered, wasn't it because he had no strength?

"Have you forgotten? I haven't forgotten!"

Ji Fan's confused eyes gradually became firm, and he almost forgot that he hadn't taken back his dignity.

On the side, Yue Qing looked at his changing expression, with some guilt and helplessness on his face.

......

In the middle of the night, the sky was covered with ice and snow, and the wind was cold.

In the quiet ice hall, Ji Fan was in front of the bonfire and studied the bronze iron pieces brought out from the 'realm' of the Ling Xuan Sect very seriously.

There are only seventeen ancient inscriptions on the iron plate, each of which is very obscure, and the stroke seems to outline all things in heaven and earth, and it is like an idler's hand carving, which makes people incomprehensible.

Yue Qing was on the side, jerkily pronouncing a few extremely awkward syllables, as if he was also confused and didn't know what he meant.

"Senior brother, what do these seventeen inscriptions mean?" I didn't see anything for a long time, and Ji Fan was a little anxious.

Yue Qing looked at it for a long time, shook his head, and said, "There is no connection between these words, I don't know what the maker wants to express......

"Hey......"

Yue Qing seemed to be tired, crooked to the side and closed his eyes to recuperate, Ji Fan did not give up, after all, it came from the hands of that kind of creature, it must be quite important, he stared at the iron piece again until his eyes were sore, and then he sighed in disappointment.

Helplessly recited a sentence of fate, Ji Fan played for a while and was ready to put it away later, at this time, the strange symbol on it suddenly flashed a trace of change, and then looked carefully and nothing happened, he was surprised, two fingers between the iron pieces against the bonfire slowly flipped the angle, at a certain moment, the seventeen strange symbols all changed shape, and then he found that every time the angle was changed, the symbol would change.

"Senior brother, look!"

Ji Fan shouted, Yue Qing opened his eyes, took the iron piece and turned around, after a while, his brows furrowed, according to the arrangement of the symbols on the iron sheet, Yue Qing quickly wrote sixty-eight ancient inscriptions on the ground. After the translation, his face gradually became solemn.

"What are you talking about?" Ji Fan didn't have Yue Qing's experience and couldn't recognize the inscription on it, so he was stunned and asked eagerly.

"Hmm...... It's like ...... Forget it, I'll read it to you again, you listen. Yue Qing seemed to be difficult to explain, and finally read it simply, when Ji Fan heard it, his face was suddenly dazed, and then his face became more solemn, the obscure syllables, it read as if it were... Eloquent Oral Decision?

As soon as the idea was born, he shook his head with a veto, this is impossible, the mantra of the cultivation world has been universal since ancient times, and there has never been a second mantra, this is the most basic knowledge of cultivation.

However, he has experienced a lot, and he is not the teenager who still follows the rules for the first time, there are many times when he has his own thinking, thinking deeply that during this period of time, he has also experienced many things that subvert cognition, and many impossible things have finally happened, so in this case, this one, maybe the impossible thing?

Telling Yue Qing his thoughts, but seeing that he was still observing these sixty-eight ancient inscriptions without any reaction, he was a little impatient at the moment, and finally he was even more tormented in his heart, and he didn't know where the impulse came from to confirm it by himself.

So he listened cross-legged, closed his eyes, and waited until his consciousness was empty, and according to the iron records, the syllables were unfamiliar and obscure, and resounded in his heart.

The first time it passed, nothing abnormal happened, and he was not discouraged, after all, it was difficult to succeed the first time, no matter what the technique was, just like at the beginning of cultivation, several times and dozens of times, before he succeeded in attracting the aura.

He practiced the strange syllables over and over again, as if he were stunned, until after a few times, the smooth tone resounded in his heart, and he savored it, and it sounded like the roar of ten thousand demons, and like the roar of evil spirits. At this time, there was a sudden tremor somewhere in his body, and he hurriedly checked, only to find that in the dark space of consciousness, a large number of dark clouds had gathered out of nowhere, and black lightning was dancing wildly!

He was taken aback, and shouted in his heart that this was the manifestation of his inner world, how could there be a manipulation other than his own will?
