Aoki Saemon rode a horse and galloped, but he was far behind, and when he caught up, he found that the woman and the Taoist priest had disappeared, and a beautiful female ninja was wielding a ninja sword, as if she had a grudge against the air, fighting left and right.

Because he didn't understand the situation, Aoki Saemon didn't show up immediately, but after watching for a while, he found that the female ninja raised her knife and slashed for a while, laughed sweetly like a baby for a while, and then fell like a girl, and after a while, she knelt on the ground and cried, tears were messy, like a drizzle after autumn, dripping down......

It must be tired of chopping, Aoki Saemon thinks. He saw that the other party had changed from irritable to quiet, so he came out from behind the tree and greeted him in a loud voice, but the female ninja did not react.

At this time, the glowing soul was in the magic of the illusory sea, and was unaware of everything in the outside world. This method is ten thousand times more clever than the illusion in ninja.

Ninja illusion is mainly to bind people's eyes, nose, ears and other senses, so that perception is hallucinated. Like leaning on the ear to be able to make the illusion touch the skin, it is already a superior technique, and throughout the entire ninja world, there are very few people who can stand out from it.

And the illusion world that the glowing soul is used to is still different. It mainly absorbs the method of the Five Elements Dao Technique, which uses the Yuan Shen to generate enchantments, and then goes off the rails and integrates into the heart of illusion. The specific method is to use the nine-character mantra to shield the shadow world, and use the illusion mind method and seal technique to close the other party's senses, so that they can't see, hear, or smell......

But in any case, the other party's heart is sober, even if he feels that he is at a loss, he knows in his heart that he is in danger. If this person is very determined and can keep his mind undisturbed, with the help of his previous memories, he can slowly find his way back.

The phantom sea is different, the phantom person, the heart also, so the accurate name of the phantom sea should be called the heart sea.

All those who cultivate the Tao will practice the qi, if the sea embraces all rivers, in the dantian, therefore, the dantian is usually called the sea of qi, is the source of the true qi, but also the place of return. Compared with the sea of qi, the sea of illusion is the sea of the heart, the origin and destination of all illusions.

Whether it is Confucianism, Taoism, or Buddhism, they all take the cultivation of the mind as the foundation, and the so-called strong mental strength is not afraid of all things. Things in the world are also imaged in the heart, so that people can perceive, the so-called "not the wind moves, the sail moves, but the heart of the ner", which is what is said.

The Heavenly Master Sect is the authentic Taoist sect, and individual cultivators who have reached the peak can extinguish their own illusory sea, from achieving what Taoism calls "materialization", and reaching the realm of "seeing mountains as mountains, and water as water". And if it reaches this realm, then all Dao magic and evil arts will also want to harm itself again.

Xiaoyaozi is the descendant of Zhang Tianxu, who is taught by the Middle-earth Heavenly Master, and his cultivation is unpredictable. Moreover, because the Celestial Master Sect of Middle Earth was valued by all dynasties, it was inevitable to be involved in the change of dynasties, wars and disputes.

After several ups and downs, ups and downs, some advanced Taoist cultivation techniques have been in turmoil and slaughter, and they are not lost. However, because of the lack of attention from the Japanese government and the opposition, coupled with its own retreat to the mountains and forests, it never asked about the disputes in the world, so that most of the Taoist cultivation was preserved, and after absorbing the strengths of Shintoism, Yin-Yang Dao, and ninjutsu, it actually created another world.

At the moment, Xiaoyaozi's cultivation can be said to be much better than that of the Dao Immortals taught by the Heavenly Master of the Middle Earth. For the Ying Soul, he thought that it was not easy for him to achieve such a cultivation at a young age, so he did not feel ruthless, otherwise, at this time, the Ying Soul would have already gone to Huangquan.

But even so, the pain caused to her by the phantom sea was heartbreaking, and she fell into a struggle that was worse than death. She first felt that there were enemies on all sides, and thousands of people with bright blades in their hands rushed towards her, and they were immediately terrified, and they slashed with their swords...... It was all born of her fear.

Then, with a flash of white light, the person who shouted to kill disappeared without a trace, but a group of corpses with hand-held heads, covered in blood, or torn chests, and blood gushing like a fountain of blood. These walking corpses are all nameless people who were killed by the Ying Soul on the orders of their master, but now they are full of hatred, their bloody eyes are wide open, and they come to her with their teeth and claws...... All of this was born out of the darkness of her heart.

After the fear and fright, there was a sudden silence around them, as if nothing had happened. When she looked up, she found herself in the air, floating in the wind, and she saw a village at the foot of the mountain clearly visible, a child lying on his father's back, holding a windmill, running happily on the ridge. The glowing soul recognized that the child was itself, and immediately fell into a sense of sweetness...... All of this was born of her innocence.

Immediately afterward, the wind and clouds changed, the whole village was swords, swords, and fire, and fell into a bloody slaughter, and the glowing soul saw a girl lying on the corpse of her parents, crying and crying; After that, he was taken away by an old man and meditated with a group of children of the same age in a barren valley; Later, when the girl grew up, under the master's order, the brother and sister had to kill each other, and after a sword fight, blood spilled, the girl personally slashed the younger brother. This girl is herself, this is the first time she has killed someone, and the feeling of fear is still fresh in her memory, and she often has nightmares, and in her dreams her little brother often walks towards her with a smile...... All of this was born of her good thoughts.

As the victors, they followed their master down the mountain, and Yingsoul and the other three sisters were secretly sent everywhere to learn different ninjutsu, while their senior brother chose to leave alone because he was unwilling to kill his fellow disciple and was unwilling to be killed by his fellow disciples. The glowing soul was in the air, and when he saw the back of the senior brother in the distance, his heart was like a knife, and he couldn't bear the pain...... All of this was born of true love in her heart.

Love parting, can't ask for it, it is the eight sufferings of Buddhism. Now the glowing soul is deeply trapped in the endless pain of "love parting, can't beg", and the grief brought to him by love makes the phantom sea stand still and no longer change......

Whether she admits it or not, whether she has been living in the shadows or not, whether she is indifferent and murderous, Phantom Sea tells her where her true heart is, and this heart is the attachment to love and the pain of parting......

At this time, Aoki Saemon had already walked behind the glow soul and found that the other party was still kneeling there, his body twitching, crying non-stop, no matter how loud his voice was, he didn't react.

Aoki Saemon somehow, pretending to be bold, reached out and slapped Gintama's left shoulder, but as soon as his hand touched the girl's shoulder, Yingjin suddenly put his right hand on his wrist, and his left hand pulled his cable tie back, followed by a beautiful forward fall.

Aoki Saemon was suddenly thrown out of the way, and with a "bang", he hit the trunk of the tree, "Hmph, ha, ha", and fainted directly.

The person who fell into the phantom sea, although the senses were closed, but the touch of the body was still there, at this time, an outsider touched his body, and the glowing soul woke up from extreme grief, and the phantom sea worked again, and all kinds of illusions came to her face, causing her to be in a hurry......

At this time, suddenly a black shadow came in an instant, and before the glowing soul could react, she reached out and pressed it on her heavenly spirit cover, and her petite body suddenly fell to the ground weakly......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Xiaoyaozi carried the burden he had just snatched, and ran quickly on the rugged mountain road, he had checked it just now, and what he wanted was in it, and a heart that he was carrying was finally steady.

Seeing that it was getting late, his pace increased significantly, but at this time, he saw an old man returning from cutting down on the mountain. The old man was pale, skinny, and he was too old to see that he was too old, and behind him was a bundle of firewood weighing about ten catties.

Due to the steepness of the mountain road, or perhaps because of the heavy firewood behind him, the old man let out an "oops", and then fell to the ground with a stumble, and never got up again.

Xiaoyaozi was anxious in his heart, and he wanted to continue on the road, but after thinking about it, the monks were merciful, and the victims on the road were not rescued, which was even more contrary to the ancestral teachings.

So, he turned around and helped the old man up, wanting to check on the other man's injuries. But at this moment, the old man, who was still dying just now, suddenly had round eyes and shot out a soul-grabbing cold light......

Xiaoyaozi secretly screamed that it was not good, knowing that he had been fooled, but it was too late to react.

Because of the proximity, his hands were stretched out to the other party, and before they could be withdrawn, there was a flash of lightning. The vein of his right wrist had been pinched by the old man. Xiaoyaozi suddenly felt sour and numb, and he was busy with his true qi to resist......

But how could the other party give him a chance to react, the old man's left hand clasped his veins, and his right hand stretched out, connecting several big acupoints on his chest, such as Jizhong, Huacani, Lingxu and other key acupoints, all of which were hit by the other party, and the technique was both fast and accurate......

Xiaoyaozi suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, forcibly used the true qi in his body, and climbed back with both feet, barely breaking free from the other party's control, but took a few steps back, but because of unsteady standing, he fell on his back.

The old man didn't expect that after the other party was hit by his own continuous blows, he would still be able to escape from his control, and he was secretly amazed by Xiaoyaozi's skills, but at this time, he had already taken off the burden on Xiaoyaozi's body.

Seeing that the other party was spitting blood from his mouth and lying there already dying, the old man knew that Xiaoyaozi's injury was not light, so he smiled evilly, stretched out his two fingers, and rushed to Xiaoyaozi's life......

Seeing that under his final blow, the other party was about to go to Huangquan, the old man was very happy in his heart, but at this critical moment, there was a sudden "boom", a burst of smoke rose into the air, and the old man hurriedly held his breath to dodge......

When the smoke cleared, he found that Xiaoyaozi was gone, and there was still a pool of blood on the ground. The old man couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and said, "Shameless people, they actually secretly learned my ninjutsu......"

Just now he took advantage of the other party's kindness and attacked others, and he didn't feel shameless, but now when he saw the other party using the escape technique, he mistook it for stealing ninjutsu, and instead scolded the other party for being shameless, it was really shameless to open the door, and shameless to get home.

The old man saw that the other party had fled, and regret was useless, so he picked up his baggage, jumped a few times, walked through a wood, stopped outside a wooden house, and entered the house in a flash.

I saw that there were two people lying in the wooden house, one was a young man with gorgeous clothes and beautiful eyebrows; One is a beautiful female ninja with well-proportioned lines and bumps.

The old man first took out a few silver needles, pricked several needles in a row at the top of the female ninja's head, and then sat quietly cross-legged, where he closed his eyes and recuperated.

Ying Soul felt a tingling pain in his brain, gradually becoming clear from the fog, raised his eyes and found that the master was sitting beside him, hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground, bowed down and said: "Master Qiqi, the disciple is incompetent, and he has not been able to complete the task assigned by the master, even Sister Xuejaw ......"

Shanzhi Zhongyue waved his hand and said, "I don't blame you for this mistake, Xue Jaw is fine." Let me ask you, what did Xiaoyaozi do to you, it made you go crazy in an instant. ”

Ying Soul carefully recalled the scene at that time, and replied calmly: "He just simply recited a magic formula, and then put his index finger on the center of the disciple's eyebrows, and the disciple felt deaf in his facial features, and then there was an endless hallucination......

Ying Soul didn't know if the master was satisfied with this answer, peeked at it, only to hear the master let out a long sigh, his face was solemn, and he didn't show a look of displeasure, so he continued: "As for what kind of Taoist techniques and techniques he used, forgive the disciple for being stupid, it's really ...... I really can't see ......."

After listening to the disciple's description, Shanzhi Zhongyue had already vaguely guessed the clue, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, fortunately he chose to sneak attack, otherwise he would have no certainty of winning in a head-on duel.

At this time, seeing that the glow soul was still kneeling there, he pointed to Aoki Saemon lying next to him, and asked, "Did you know this person before?" ”

Ying Soul looked up, had no impression, and said, "Back to Master, the disciple doesn't know." ”

Shanzhi Zhongyue stared at the eyes of the Ying Soul and made sure that the disciple was not lying: "Although this person was by mistake, it is also a coincidence, and his identity is special, in the future, you will secretly stare at this person, and you will not leave the ...... an inch."
