Chapter Ninety-Nine: Refining the Demon Heart
Nie Xiao felt very sad in his heart at this time, even better than the sadness of his failure to cross the tribulation, or he thought too little about it, so that Han Xiaoxiao was in danger, fortunately, he was still relatively fast in the tribulation, if it was at night, it was estimated that he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Looking at Han Xiaoxiao lying in his arms, an inexplicable emotion surged into Nie Xiao's heart, it seemed that he really had some relationship with this woman thousands of generations ago, and he didn't know what kind of fate it was, but since it was already like this, Nie Xiao couldn't let go of Han Xiaoxiao's friendship in his heart anyway.
"Why don't you take her as your concubine, her affection for you can be seen from this incident, since ancient times, how thin her life is, it's better to treat her well. Sun Xiaotian on the side became a matchmaker.
In the Damen sect, many male and female monks have emotions between them, and there are many couples, although Nie Xiao is in such a situation as joining the Feng family and marrying Feng Promise as his wife, but the two still did not perform the courtesy of Zhou Gong at the beginning, but they were only husband and wife on the surface, and there was no change in essence.
And it was agreed that as long as Nie Xiao had the ability to leave the Feng family, after returning the bride price, the two would not owe each other, and the whole package of elixir last time had far exceeded this value, and it was not a problem for men to take concubines.
What's more, Nie Xiao didn't do anything to be sorry for Feng Nuo.
But Nie Xiao didn't think so, in his opinion, Han Xiaoxiao was just a little sister he met outside, and he didn't have any thoughts about her, if he really wanted it, it was also a kind of family affection that blood was thicker than water.
"These things are not what I should do now, cultivation is the first priority, if I can't even guarantee my own safety, how can I talk about giving people happiness?" Nie Xiao said.
"What is happiness? What is safety? Since ancient times, there have been many stories of only envying mandarin ducks and not envying immortals, everything in heaven and earth has love, even if you chase immortals and seek Taoism, it is difficult to escape the ordeal of love, if you really have no affection for her in your heart, how can you believe that she brought her out to protect you through the thunderstorm?" Sun Xiaotian seemed to see through Nie Xiao's thoughts.
"It's useless to say more, my feelings for Han Xiaoxiao are just brother and sister, and now is not the time to discuss these, maybe someone else has arranged a killer to ambush me, and I want to return to the sect quickly." Nie Xiao didn't want to talk to the old monkey about these things at this moment, so it was the right way to go back quickly.
With a wave of his big hand, the space bag and a space bracelet of the four people flew into Nie Xiao's hand, and Nie Xiao was holding Han Xiaoxiao and disappeared in an instant.
No one knew in which direction he was going, no one knew what trajectory he was taking, and he disappeared into the empty valley, which was silent as if nothing had happened.
Returning to his practice room, Nie Xiao settled Han Xiaoxiao well, and used the basic acupuncture method to repair her injuries every once in a while, because the elixir was used up by him at the very beginning, and now she can only rely on the basic acupuncture method to treat her injuries, and during this time, Nie Xiao can't go out again for the time being, he is afraid that there will be other conspiracies if someone in the sect knows his movements.
Nie Xiao didn't have to guess to know that the person who was sent to assassinate him today while he was in the tribulation must have someone from the sect to report the news.
But what he was very puzzled about was that he hadn't revealed anyone of them, even if he knew that he had reached the cultivation of forty qi, he shouldn't know where he would go to cross the tribulation, why could he infer so accurately that he would go to the empty valley?
Then he figured it out a little, in fact, that person only needs to know that he wants to cross the tribulation, as for where he is going, in the Southern Ganbu Continent, there are only a few suitable locations for the tribulation, so as long as he places an ambush in a few locations, he will definitely encounter the location of his own tribulation.
But just by relying on one's own cultivation to reach forty qi to cross the tribulation, knowing what time he would choose to go was already very shocking.
Thinking about it according to the cultivation level, the person who can calculate this step must have reached a cultivation level that is even more advanced than that of the Tongshengfu Sect, and a person who has reached the ninety-six realms of qi, or even a higher cultivation, must plot himself.
But he didn't offend such a person at all, even if Qin Haotian wanted to deal with him, he shouldn't have found such a master to plot against him.
After thinking about it and getting no results, Nie Xiao didn't think about it anymore, what he had to do now was to cure Han Xiaoxiao, and then he would seize the time to transform the vitality in the Eternal Demon Heart into his own cultivation.
After a month of cultivation, Nie Xiao had almost completely exhausted the vitality in the Eternal Demon Heart, and his cultivation had also reached the peak of forty-nine Dao Qi. There is a vague feeling of breaking through fifty qi, but it seems that there is still a little epiphany, stuck on the bottleneck, as if there is a layer of paper separated by it, you can get a glimpse, but you still can't see it.
Of course, Nie Xiao was not in a hurry, he was already completely satisfied that he could break through to the forty-nine Dao Qi in such a short period of time, you must know that even if this stage of cultivation is placed on some genius disciples, it will take at least half a year or even a year of cultivation.
In this way, he can be regarded as compensating for the loophole of not cultivating for nearly a year.
"This is the end of the power of the Eternal Demon Heart?" Sun Xiaotian seemed a little strange.
"Well, it's exhausted. Nie Xiao replied.
"It shouldn't be, it's impossible, how is this possible, the demon heart inherited from my demon clan at the beginning, but when it reaches the ninety-eight qi, if it is successfully fused, it can instantly break through to the treasure of the ninety-nine qi, how can it only be so slightly improved?" Sun Xiaotian seemed to feel a little puzzled.
According to the rumors within the demon clan, this is indeed the case, because one of Sun Wukong's descendants, Sun Aojue, has successfully fused the Eternal Demon Heart, and directly broke through from the cultivation of the peak of the ninety-seven qi to the ninety-nine qi, standing at the top of the star world.
But since then, no matter how many amazing and brilliant people appear in the younger generations, no demon master can successfully fuse this eternal demon heart, and even the current demon emperor's half-human and half-demon Dapeng bird has no way to fuse, otherwise he would not have handed over this demon heart to Nie Xiao without saying a word.
From this point of view, it may have been that after so many years of changes, this demon heart may have also changed, which is why Sun Xiaotian feels so strange.
