Chapter 18: The Secret of the Ecstasy

After Yu Hai left the main hall, Xiu Yi Zhenren casually drew a barrier to isolate the sound of the hall and the outside world. Only then did the crowd gossip about it. But it is said that the divine consciousness in Xiao Qi's body is neither cultivated by humans nor belongs to demon beasts as Yu Hai guessed, but it is a very special kind of creature between heaven and earth, and the snow spirit in the extremely cold land of Kunlun, it is also a natural thing, but it is different from the snow spirit, although the snow spirit is also a natural thing, but it has a specific form, and when you see it, you know that this is the snow spirit, but this thing only has a soul body, and no specific form, so it will look for a creature to be a host since it was born. Coincidentally, that evening, it happened that the little thing was born in that mountain forest, but he had just been born, and his spiritual power was not strong, it originally intended Yu Hai's body, but because Yu Hai's divine sense was stronger than it, it finally chose Xiao Qi as its host. At this moment, this little thing was packed in a special bottle by everyone. This bottle is a thing handed down by the ancestors of Kunlun, and the magic lies in the fact that any kind of object in this world can show its form when it is contained in this bottle, so this bottle is named "treasure bottle". If you want to talk about the origin of the little thing in this bottle, everyone in the hall can tell one or two, but if you take it outside, let the people outside see this little thing, but they don't know what it is. What do you say? It turns out that this little thing is called "** beast", long before the formation of this continent, it was bred from heaven and earth, and lived with heaven and earth. Then, somehow, it seemed that it suddenly disappeared from the continent overnight, without a trace. At that time, the various sects also sent many monks out to investigate, but they did not find any clues, and then they were gone. With the passage of time, the ancient books that record the ** beast have gradually disappeared, so that by now, there are only a few people who know the ** beast in human cultivation. And these people only know a little about the ** beast, they only know a thing or two, but no one knows about it anymore. I'm afraid no one thought that the ** beast disappeared suddenly, and now it will suddenly appear again. It is said that the ** beast has disappeared on this continent for thousands of years, but now it has reappeared in the realm of Kunlun, and I don't know what kind of scene will appear in the future.

"When the ** beast disappeared, the old man was just a small monk who practiced qi at the seventh level, and the door sent people out to find clues, I was only an outer disciple at the time, and the door sent a task to say that if you can find clues about the ** beast, you can be promoted to an inner disciple, and you can also worship under the disciple of the Jindan monk as a disciple, at that time, in order to grab such a place, many outer disciples went out, but there were really few back, and many monks fell on the way to find it, But the reason for the fall is unknown. The second elder, one of the four elders, seemed to remember the past and said quietly. When he opened his mouth, everyone who had participated in the search remembered it. At that time, many sects sent disciples out to look for them, but without exception, most of these disciples had fallen without the slightest trace, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

"When you say this, I remember, although I was at the inner gate at that time, because of the big trouble caused by this incident, I also wanted to go out to see, but my master at that time did not allow it, and even feared that I would sneak out by myself, and also imposed a ban on the mountain peak, forbidding me to step out of the mountain. Now that I think about it, it's a little weird, maybe my master knew something at the time, so he didn't let me go down the mountain. The three elders continued

After listening to the words of the three elders, everyone fell into deep thought, what was the truth back then, they didn't know that the people who participated in the search for clues back then had disappeared without a trace at that time, so later the sect forbade the disciples in the sect to go out to find the ** beast. Although at that time, all the major sects were also wondering if those disciples had disappeared with the ** beast, but there was no real evidence, no one dared to say this, they just thought silently in their hearts. Later, the various sects also secretly sent people to investigate the place where the monks finally disappeared, but they found nothing, and the people sent later did not disappear like the previous monks.

Now that the ** beast has appeared on this continent, although everyone has not shown it, they are all a little worried in their hearts, and the ** beast is not easy to deal with. According to ancient books, the beast feeds on the divine consciousness of people, and the more high-level the monk, the more attractive it is, and its ability will increase with the amount of divine consciousness it eats. So the later it gets, the more capable it becomes. What's more, because it doesn't have a specific form, and what it's good at is the attack of spiritual power, so ordinary monks don't want to fight against it, and if they don't do it, they will be swallowed by it. But it also has weaknesses, its weakness is that when it was first born, its ability was not strong, and the host ability it could control was generally weak, if it could be eliminated at this time, it would be the easiest. But if you miss a hit, this little thing is also very vindictive, and it will attack you suddenly at any point in the future, which is really unguardable. And when it is in the host's body, its ability will increase with the improvement of the host's ability, that is to say, the faster the host's ability increases, the faster its ability will grow, so the ** beast that appeared in the mountains and forests initially chose Yu Hai as its host. In the opinion of this ** beast, although Yu Hai's cultivation is only three levels higher than Xiao Qi's, it is also a three-spirit root, and Yu Hai's bone age is younger than Xiao Qi's, so it is obvious that Yu Hai's cultivation speed is faster. With such a host, it can grow as quickly as possible. **The beast grows by relying on the host's ability to grow, but its growth rate will be faster than its host, and in the later stage, it will be one or two orders higher than the host's cultivation, and at that time, it will choose to eat the host's divine consciousness and replace it, just like a sacrifice between monks. So when the ** beast was still overflowing, ordinary monks didn't want to touch it when they went out to practice, and it was okay to be eaten by it, think about how hateful it would be if you were possessed by it, and the cultivation that you had worked so hard to cultivate, but in the end it was cheaper than that thing!
