Chapter 18: The so-called metaphysical cultivation

It's night.

In the exhaustion of the whole day during the day, Wu Zimo also proposed to rest for one night first, making plans.

In this regard, everyone has no objections, the killing in the past few days has almost been more than the usual half a year, there is such a gap, can take a break, naturally no one will refuse.

At the moment, Wang Shi and the others dispersed one by one, or gathered together to drink, or slept peacefully, feeling this rare comfort on this dangerous sea of clouds.

Split ship, Wu Zimo room.

Lying on the soft bed, the young man's dark eyes looked at the ceiling in a daze, and the sharp gaze that had been sharp in the past became a little loose for the first time, as if it had sunk senselessly.

At this time, his brain was empty, and in this simple room, the surroundings seemed so small and so vast.

His thoughts flew into the air, and unconsciously, he slowly sketched some memories.

"Wuyang, your son is amazing, he must be a good seedling of Xuan Xiu in the future. ”

"Yes, hahaha, my son is certainly not inferior to anyone!"

"Hehe, then you can hand him over to me, and I will teach him well before he becomes a true Xuan Xiu. ”

"Okay, you are more experienced than me in this area, and Xiaomo will definitely be better than me in the future. ”

He remembered some of the images from these conversations, and a faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

This kind of smile often appeared on his face, but this time, it seemed a little more sincere.

"Xuan Xiu ......"

He muttered silently slightly, these two words, but at this time, they were like a heavy mountain, pressing on his immature shoulders.

Now, four years have passed since his father's eldest brother was killed, and this road that he has been fascinated for a long time has not yet stepped into the slightest.

This made his indifferent state of mind appear a sense of urgency for the first time.

He didn't know everything about the previous civilization, and he was not familiar with the world dominated by science and technology, and now there was only one path in front of him.

He needs strength.

Whether it's for the old man, or for the sister who doesn't know if it's still alive, or for himself......

Or anyone he wants to protect, he must, to become a Xuan Xiu.

Everything that comes with the comet breaks all the original order of the earth, and it is the most direct means to survive in such a world and have great power.

And the best way to gain power is through mystical power.

He could sense the supernatural that pervaded the sky, but so far, apart from sensing, he had never known how to incorporate these powers into his body, so as to form a true mystical power of his own.

At this moment, with such thoughts, the young man's scattered eyes became a little confused, this is a rather empty gaze, like existence, and like nothingness.

"Would you look at it like that? ”

As he lay quietly on the bed, a voice sounded slowly from the room.

This voice made the empty gaze condense almost instantly, and then quietly turned into a bottomless black abyss.

"If you break into the boy's room without saying hello, you won't be afraid of being punished on the spot?"

After the young man came to his senses, he said like this, and the meaning of ridicule was very strong.

"Hmph, forgive me for not daring. ”

Hearing this, the delicate voice said quite arrogantly, and then, a beautiful and delicate face slowly appeared in front of the young man's eyes.

At this moment, the girl sat at the head of the bed, her delicate body bent slightly, and looked down at the reverie boy, and the golden thread that wrapped around her ears slipped down a little at this moment, and fell on the delicate face.

Those intoxicating golden eyes were looking at him quietly, gently intertwined with the dark gaze.

Sniffing lightly the pleasant smell on the sparse green silk, Wu Zimo coughed lightly and sat up a little unnaturally.

Yang You, this girl, sometimes doesn't know how charming she is.

He estimated that if he were an ordinary person at this time, he was afraid that under an impulse, he would turn over and press his soft body on the bed.

"If you have something, just say it. ”

The boy looked at an empty table somewhere and spoke.

In this atmosphere, he really didn't dare to look at Yang You, and when he really quieted down, the girl's beauty that was enough to overwhelm all living beings would be revealed, which was provocative.

"What can I find from you, it's not the Bodhi Quenching Body Bead. ”

This words made the young man suddenly stunned, and then quickly turned his head and looked at the girl with some expectation.

He almost forgot about it because the conditions were so turbulent during the day.

can make the quiet and abnormal floating statue exude a little fluctuation, I am afraid that this Bodhi Quenching Body Bead will not be an ordinary mortal thing.

Glancing at the lord who didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle, Yang You stretched out his white hand and hooked his fingertips towards the young man.

Seeing this, Wu Zimo also took out a round bead without the slightest hesitation and put it on the palm of the former's hand.

The girl's beautiful eyes seemed to flash a little smile, but she didn't show it, and after pinching the Bodhi quenching bead in her hand, she asked slowly.

"Do you especially want to become a Xuan Xiu?"

Her words changed from the previous playful jokes, and asked a little seriously.

Hearing this, the young man nodded almost instantly.

Becoming a Xuan Xiu has always been his goal, and now that he is sixteen years old, it is time to contact these things.

"Alas, although I know that you will be the answer, I still have to remind you that the path of Xuanxiu is a wide avenue for races other than humans, like a blessing for gods, but for humans themselves, it is a double-edged sword. ”

Yang You brushed away the delicate hair on the side of his face, hung it on his ear, and said in a serious tone.

These words made Dewu Zimo look at her with some confusion and asked.

"Why do you say that, as long as you have talent, humans can also cultivate Xuan power, right?"

In this regard, the girl nodded noncommittally and said.

"Yes, yes, but as I said, it's a double-edged sword for you humans, and when it comes to pros and cons, the disadvantages far outweigh the pros. ”

Her words were very light, but she didn't mean to joke, which made Dewu Zimo's eyes narrow slightly, he didn't know that there would be such a situation when humans embarked on the path of Xuan Xiu.

"Say it straight, but my answer won't change. ”

Hearing this, the girl stared at him with disgust, but she also knew that the former had this kind of character, so she didn't say anything about it, and said slightly.

"Xuanli, after human cultivation, will continue to erode the physical body, this erosion is an established fact that cannot be reversed by any means, and even after the Xuanli is strong to a certain extent, you ...... That is, humans, are likely to get out of control. ”

"Out of control?"

Her words made the young man's brows furrow slightly, and he looked at the girl's gaze with a little inexplicable meaning.

"Don't look at me like that, I won't bother making anything up. ”

Yang You saw his suspicious gaze, raised his eyebrows, first said as if proving his innocence, and then slowly spoke.

"This is indeed very strange, for our race, the occult power seems to be inherently favored with us, but in the case of you humans, it will become extremely obscure, and the kind of erosion I am talking about will greatly reduce your vitality, and generally speaking, you will not live to be forty-five years old. ”

These words made Dewu Zimo's pupils shake a little at this moment, and he looked at the girl with a little disbelief and asked.

"What about Fei Hong, he looks like he's fifty or sixty, why isn't he dead?"

As if knowing that he would ask like this, the girl smiled faintly and replied: "That Fei Hong just looks old, in fact, he is only about thirty-five years old, although part of the reason is because of his cultivation of Xuan Gong, but the reason why he looks so old is more because of the erosion of Xuan power." ”

"How can such a thing ......?"

The young man was also slightly shocked when he heard this, and at that moment, a pair of eyes were a little deeper.

"Actually, it's very simple, for you, Xuan Li is more like a kind of power obtained by overdrawing your life, which will make your body continue to collapse and disintegrate, and even when you cultivate to a certain point, Xuan Li will erode your brain, making you lose your mind and find it difficult to control yourself. ”

Sensing Wu Zimo's somewhat uncertain heart, Yang You also said slowly.

Everything she said was not alarmist, it was true, and although some places may not be as horrific as they sounded, they were all cases that really happened.

For this reason, more importantly, she didn't want the teenager to embark on this path.

Aside from the unbearable costs of ordinary people, obtaining this power also means a danger.

Perhaps such harsh language is a bit selfish...... But she really likes him, and if the boy will always be by his side, then she will always protect him, even at the cost of her life.

This is the cat demon clan, and the people who fall in love will be loyal and guarded until death.

It's just that she doesn't know Wu Zimo's true opinion of her, so she has to suppress these secret emotions, looking forward to the day when she can say it openly.

"Yang You, thank you for telling me this...... But it's still the same sentence before, I won't give up. ”

The boy pondered for a moment in silence, not doubting the truth of the former's words, but taking them all as reality.

From such a realistic point of view, he once again considered and made a choice.

He can't deceive himself, he can't go against his will.

This is the road he must take!

Hearing such an answer, unexpectedly, Yang You did not have any sense of loss or worry, and Wu Zimo's confident and firm heart moved her a little.

Perhaps, it is better to support the former than to prevent it.

In this world, how many people, because of the advice and dissuasion of others, go against the choice made in their hearts, abandon the fiery original intention in their hearts, and regret it in the future.

"Okay, since you've decided, then this is the first step in Xuan Xiu, let this girl help you. ”

Yang You restrained his slightly fluctuating heart, revealing a smile that was enough to fascinate people.

As she spoke, she raised the round Danzhu in her hand, and some mysterious power burst out, making the young man feel a kind of hunger and thirst all over his flesh and blood.

The young man looked at this beautiful smile, and he was also stunned for a while, and this time, he suddenly felt that his face was a little warm.

In the past, Yang You showed a shy expression to him, but he didn't expect that this time, it was him.

With a light cough, Wu Zimo slowly calmed down, feeling the flesh that seemed a little greedy, and said in a resolute tone.

"Let's get started. ”
