Chapter 262: A Dream for Three and a Half Years
Quietly feeling the refreshing tranquility and enjoying the pleasure of spiritual power rushing in the body, Tianyou was completely intoxicated and couldn't extricate himself. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info If possible, God bless even wants to keep it like this until the end of the day. Unfortunately, this feeling was not always the case, and in Tianyou's perception, the pleasant sensation began to fade rapidly after a while, and the various sensory stimuli that he had almost completely forgotten finally returned to his consciousness.
The first thing Tianyou noticed was a slight voice. Although he could hear that the person who spoke deliberately lowered the volume, Tianyou could still hear it quite clearly, because it was too quiet on this small platform.
As the sense of hearing is restored, the world around us seems to flow again. The light re-entered Tianyou's eyes, causing him to feel a slight discomfort. There's a lot of light around. However, in the next second, Tianyou shuddered violently, because he suddenly remembered the situation before he fell asleep in a daze.
It was obviously dusk when he accompanied Ji Yao to this platform before, but now the bright and dazzling sunlight is obviously close to or just past noon.
As his senses gradually recovered, Tianyou soon felt more abnormalities. The originally active but chaotic spiritual power around him was divided into branch teams for some reason, and a five-pointed star was formed according to the attributes of the five elements to revolve around him. What's even more strange is that a faint pressure also appeared on his body, although it was not strong, but that invisible force did exist, making Tianyou feel the feeling that his whole body was being squeezed by something.
At this time, his eyes had adapted to the strong light, and his eyes were no longer golden, and the stone fence in front of him was still the tattered stone fence, but Ji Yao, who was standing there, had long since disappeared.
Looking back at the voice that spoke before, Tianyou was slightly startled. The abandoned platform has been left in order, weeds have been removed, and the cave has been transformed into a habitable environment. There was a pile of bamboo poles and curtains next to the entrance of the cave. Of course, the main change is that there are no less than twenty people gathered outside the cave entrance at this time, making this small platform a little crowded.
Just for a moment of astonishment, Tianyou immediately bowed and saluted. "Zhenyuan Shangxian, Tianfei, Wufeng Sword Saint, Biyou Fairy, Xie Changzhi, Yunjin Immortal, senior brothers, senior sisters. ”
This Luo circle bowed down, and Tianyou actually found that nearly a third of the people he knew in Zixiao Palace had gathered here. All kinds of doubts popped up in his heart, and then quickly combed through them in his brain, and soon Tianyou guessed the explanation that was still unbelievable.
Before losing consciousness, Tianyou determined that the time was dusk, and now it was obviously almost noon, unless the world that carried this Divine Continent could go backwards, it could only be that he had passed at least one night, and he had spent it standing in complete unconsciousness.
Linked to the environmental changes in the rear, it is clear that this is not something that can happen overnight. It's not that it's too late, it's that it's not necessary.
This platform has obviously been abandoned for a long time, and Ji Yao's meaning of coming here is probably because she knows that it is deserted, so she wants to come and be quiet. Zixiao Palace was not necessary, nor could it be to suddenly carry out emergency maintenance on a deserted site. Then, a more reasonable explanation is that God bless himself must have stood here for more than a day and night, but for a long time, which is why so many acquaintances waited aside, and also explained why this unattended platform was suddenly repaired.
Thinking of these possibilities, Tianyou quickly noticed what he was wearing again.
Originally, when Tianyou returned to the mountain, he still wore a leather armor that went out and did not take it off, but now he has several pieces of cloth hanging on his body. That's right, it's cloth. It is not a sewn garment, but a whole piece of white cloth, which is threaded with a rope and hung on the body, although it can also cover the body, but it must not move much at all, otherwise it will be easy to walk away.
"I ...... This ......"
Seeing Tianyou look down and check his clothes, Ji Yao spoke: "I asked someone to help you remove the things on your body." Don't worry, you'll be able to keep everything. ”
Tianyou nodded, and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong with me, why did I ......" He pointed to the surrounding situation, and the meaning was quite obvious.
This time, it was the concubine who opened her mouth to explain his doubts.
"Do you know how long you've been standing here?"
Tianyou shook his head.
"Do you know what's wrong with you?"
Keep shaking your head.
"And what was the last thing you remember?"
After thinking for a while, Tianyou replied: "I remember following the Biyou Fairy to come here, and then seeing the Biyou Fairy thinking about things, I stood here and waited. Waiting and waiting, I felt that the place was beautiful, and the smells were very refreshing, and then I didn't know anything. When I wake up again, that's it. ”
"Hmph. Behind the Biyou Fairy, Chu Feifei snorted coldly and imperceptibly. Although the voice was small, Tianyou still heard it. It was only at this time that he discovered that his five senses seemed to have been greatly enhanced. Not only hearing, as long as you concentrate, you can even see a little food residue soup on the corner of Chu Feifei's mouth ten steps away.
It's not the time to pay attention to these for the time being, Tianyou forcibly pulled his thoughts back again, and at this time, Lu Meng's girl also began to explain excitedly: "You are lucky." This is epiphany, a process in which the body and mind are completely relaxed, and the soul communicates directly with heaven and earth. The retreat of the immortals is to pursue this mysterious state, and they are basically unable to ask for it. I don't know what kind of chance you guy, you can actually enter the state of concentration by standing, and you have entered a state of epiphany, which is simply envious of others!"
"This ...... I didn't mean to, either, is it really that rare to have an epiphany?"
"Hahahaha. The Bladeless Sword Saint on the side was amused. "Isn't it just rare? Even if we immortal elders have been in retreat for more than ten years, we may not be able to get a chance to have an epiphany, let alone a new disciple like you who are just getting started? If everyone can have an epiphany if they want to, then wouldn't my Zixiao Palace be full of immortals?"
Tianyou touched the back of his head a little embarrassed, and then asked, "Then how many days have I stood in this epiphany?"
"How many days?" Bai Bingqian jumped out and said, "Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with this weather?"
"Weather?" Tianyou looked up at the sky, and then suddenly realized that this strong sunlight was something abnormal.
The platform is very high and has exceeded the height of the clouds, so it is understandable that the light is stronger. It's just that the scorching sun is obviously not just because of the high reason.
"Did you say I've been standing for a few months? It's summer?"
"Hmph, it's the end of summer. If you don't wake up again, we're all looking at whether or not to wake you up by force. ”
After Bai Bingqian finished speaking, Concubine Tian said again: "If others settle down, it will be a few hours, and if it is long, it will inevitably be over." It's the first time you've seen this for more than three months. Originally, this epiphany was about the longer the better, but you can't wake up on the left and on the right, which is really worrying. After Fairy Biyou informed us, the head of the sect even recruited a few elders to help you read it, but after discussing it for a few days, there was no conclusion, and you could only make sure that you were in a stable state, so you didn't forcibly interrupt your epiphany. Good thing you're finally awake. ”
"Yes, yes. We're all afraid that you'll become a homestone. Lu Meng was joking on the side, causing everyone to chuckle again. There are so many brothers and sisters on the scene, and only Lu Meng is the most favored and dares to joke casually. Even Chu Feifei's high-flying and domineering one only dares to pretend to be well-behaved on the side now.
After laughing, the Bladeless Sword Saint finally remembered the matter, and said to the Zhenyuan Shangxian on the side: "Uncle Zhou, since Tianyou has woken up, please help him check it, right?"
"Oh, I forgot. Zhenyuan Shangxian walked up to Tianyou and stretched out his hand to pull his wrist, and pinched Tianyou's pulse with the same technique as diagnosing the pulse, but the difference was that he used both hands, and he pinched the pulse of the left and right hands at the same time. Under Tianyou's slightly worried gaze, Zhenyuan Shangxian's brows became tighter and tighter, and he muttered in his mouth: "Huh...... That's not right...... This...... How so?"
The others didn't know what Zhenyuan Shangxian had touched, and they became even more nervous when they heard him talking to himself there.
In the end, it was Lu Meng who was favored and asked, "Master, what results did you find? Tell me quickly!
At this time, Zhenyuan Shangxian had already let go of Tianyou's hands, but without waiting for the people around him to ask, he attached his palm to Tianyou's forehead, and the other hand was attached to Tianyou's navel, and slowly exerted force.
Tianyou was wondering what Zhenyuan Shangxian was doing, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the whole person suddenly flew back a few steps before standing firmly, and the opposite Zhenyuan Shangxian also seemed to be electrocuted, and his hands were bounced away, but after all, he was there to cultivate, but he didn't react much.
"...... Zhenyuan Shangxian?" "This series of changes just now made everyone around them more and more confused, seeing that Zhenyuan Shangxian seemed to be bounced off, Tianfei couldn't help but be a little anxious and began to ask about Zhenyuan's Shangxian situation.
Raising a hand to signal everyone to be quiet, Zhenyuan Shangxian did not answer everyone's doubts, but calmly ordered: "Don't speak." Leave first, I have something to discuss with Tianyou. ”
Everyone was very puzzled by Zhenyuan Shangxian's order, but the highest status here belonged to him, and his tone was so serious that everyone could only obey the order and leave.
Of course, there are also disobedient people, such as Lu Meng, and the group of people behind Ji Yao. In fact, the only ones who were really obedient and left were some disciples who came to help, as well as Yun Jin and Xie Bi'an.
Seeing that there were still many people left, Zhenyuan Shangxian first straightened his face, and then looked at Lu Meng like this. Although she usually likes to play coquettish with Zhenyuan Shangxian, the premise that Lu Meng dares to do that is that she knows the sense of proportion and will never cause trouble to Zhenyuan Shangxian on issues of principle, so she will be favored by Zhenyuan Shangxian and even other immortals, and allow her to be coquettish occasionally.
Knowing that there was no drama this time, Lu Meng could only evacuate obediently, and of course Yingying and Bai Bingyu.
drove away Lu Meng and his party, and Zhenyuan Shangxian looked at Tianfei and Wufeng Sword Saint again. Both of them asked, visibly surprised, "Can't we stay too?"
Zhenyuan Shangxian thought for a while and said, "It's not that you have to go, but Yu Li, I think you should still avoid it." ”
Zhenyuan Shangxian said so, and the two of them didn't say anything, so they also turned around and left.
At this time, only Tianyou, Zhenyuan Shangxian and the few people behind Ji Yao were left on the scene. There was no strong direct expulsion, Zhenyuan Shangxian just asked in a calm tone: "Ji Yao, can you temporarily lend this place to talk to me and Tianyou?"
Although she used the tone of request, how could Ji Yao have any reason to disobey what Zhenyuan Shangxian said, but she was still slightly surprised and asked, "Do I also need to avoid it?" After saying this, she did not look at Zhenyuan Shangxian, but looked at Tianyou.
Ji Yao's meaning is obvious, that is, let Tianyou help intercede and let her stay to observe. She instinctively felt that this was a very important thing, so she wanted to find out.
To be honest, seeing Zhenyuan Shangxian driving away the others so solemnly, Tianyou didn't want Ji Yao to stay. Ji Yao's previous bias towards Chu Feifei had already made Tianyou realize that he couldn't be treated like a mother, because in the case of a conflict of interest, Ji Yao would give priority to helping Chu Feifei over him. There is nothing wrong with this choice itself, and Tianyou doesn't realize that this is because Ji Yao is cold-blooded, but what she is closer to is not herself, this is a fact, so it is better for Tianyou to keep some of her secrets.
Zhenyuan Shangxian so solemnly persuaded the others to leave, and even the Heavenly Concubine and the Bladeless Sword Saint were invited away, which is already very revealing. After all, as the sect master of the sect, it is necessary for them to know about the cultivation situation of Tianyou. However, Zhenyuan Shangxian still chose not to let them know.
In such a situation, of course, Tianyou also understood that Ji Yao should not be allowed to hear what Zhenyuan Shangxian was going to say. Although he himself didn't know what Zhenyuan Shangxian was going to say now, he shouldn't let Ji Yao know anyway.
However, now that Ji Yao is actually looking at Tianyou like this, the meaning is already obvious, that is, let Tianyou keep her. Although Tianyou did not regard Ji Yao as his mother, at least on the surface this relationship must be maintained, and he can't tear his face with Ji Yao. It wasn't necessary, and it shouldn't be done that way.
If Tianyou refuses, then even if this relationship is not destroyed, there will be a serious rift, and if Tianyou agrees to Ji Yao to stay, then Zhenyuan Shangxian will ask for the information to be confided, and Ji Yao will inevitably know about it.
Tianyou was very entangled, he didn't know how to choose, but Zhenyuan Shangxian and Ji Yao were waiting for him to decide, and there was no extra time for him to think about it.
In the end, after briefly weighing the situation in front of him, Tianyou nodded. "Biyou Fairy has some relationship with me, Zhenyuan Shangxian, please say it directly, so you don't have to avoid Biyou Fairy. However, Senior Brother Chu Feifei and the others should also avoid it. God bless here, thank you in advance. ”
Of course, Chu Feifei would not listen to Tianyou's arrangement, his eyes turned directly to Ji Yao, and after seeing her nodding, he greeted a few of his followers and Ji Yao's maids and left the platform together.
The people were finally gone, and only Zhenyuan Shangxian, Tianyou and Ji Yao were left on the scene, and at this time, Zhenyuan Shangxian no longer hid anything. However, he didn't say anything directly, but asked Tianyou first: "Do you know the thing on your body?"
"What, what?" Tianyou was stunned by the sudden question.
Zhenyuan Shangxian did not open his mouth to speak, but reached out and tapped his heart. Tianyou instantly understood what Zhenyuan Shangxian was referring to. He nodded vigorously and admitted, "Yes, I know." I told her to stay there. ”
The location that Zhenyuan Shangxian was pointing to was obviously where the Moon Shadow was. The parasitic mode of monsters is very hidden, especially in a sleeping state. However, it takes time for Moon Shadow to enter a deep sleep state, and it does not mean that anyone can sleep through it. The more important reason is that this time Zhenyuan Shangxian wanted to check the results of Tianyou's epiphany, so the inspection was very thorough and very serious. It was precisely because of this thorough inspection that Zhenyuan Shangxian discovered the parasitic moon shadow at the mouth of Tianyou's heart.
As the old qualification of Zixiao Palace, Zhenyuan Shangxian is higher than the great sect masters of the other five sects. After living for so long, people are naturally more sophisticated, so after discovering the moon shadow, he didn't call out to Tianyou like a stunned head, but first thought about several possibilities by himself, and then deduced the biggest possibility according to Tianyou's condition, that is, Tianyou actually deliberately hid this monster.
It is precisely because of this judgment that Zhenyuan Shangxian chose to clear the field and wanted to discuss this matter with Tianyou alone.
As a monk, hiding an unknown demon pet is not a too uncommon idea in Zixiao Palace, at least Zhenyuan Shangxian has seen several fellow disciples use this method, and almost all of them have miraculous effects.
No matter what the strength of this hidden demon pet is, because no one knows about its existence, then when it first appears, it will inevitably be a surprise attack, and this suddenness determines that even if it is a monster with very average strength, it is still possible to turn the tide and change the tide of battle. What's more, most of the monks who do this will choose particularly powerful demon pets to hide, so the effect of this first surprise attack will often be very prominent. Even if it is used properly, every time it is used, it can ensure that the enemy is completely wiped out, and outsiders will not know about the existence of hidden demon pets, then you can be yin again.
In short, a hidden demon pet may not bring any benefits to the master's cultivation or face, but it is likely to save the master's life at a critical moment, and it can also create a miraculous counter-kill.
The value of such a demon pet can be imagined, it is almost a life talisman. Whether this talisman can turn the tide at a critical moment depends entirely on whether the enemy at that time knows about its existence and how well they understand it.
The best way to hide a secret is to keep it from anyone, not even your closest relatives. Because everyone will have the closest people. The insider only tells his mother, and his mother can tell his sister, and this sister can tell her husband...... If this continues, the secret will soon cease to be a secret.
Therefore, Zhenyuan's previous plan was not to tell anyone except Tianyou, even if Tianyou agreed to Ji Yao to stay, he still chose to play dumb riddles with Tianyou and try to keep this secret as much as possible.
Tianyou could understand that the moon shadow hidden in his chest had been discovered, but Ji Yao might not be able to understand it.
After Tianyou nodded and confirmed, Zhenyuan Shangxian also nodded, and then said: "Epiphany is a kind of realm improvement, not directly related to your cultivation, it may be that you were in the innate stage of the Dust Realm before, and after the epiphany, you are still in this realm, but as long as you have an epiphany, the subsequent cultivation will become extremely easy."
Of course, during the epiphany, a certain amount of aura will be absorbed appropriately according to the situation, so there are also cases where two or three stages are directly promoted after the epiphany. And you......"
"Disciple, is there anything wrong here?" Tianyou asked a little anxiously. The level of Zhenyuan Shangxian's appetite is too high, so that Tianyou's heart is now up and down.
Fortunately, Zhenyuan Shangxian only organized the language a little and began to introduce it, after all, he had to explain the reason, but he couldn't let Ji Yao hear the clues. It's also difficult for Zhenyuan to go to the immortals.
"God bless your situation is more special, the time for epiphany is very long, it is said that this is a good thing, you can realize more, and in the process of epiphany, the body will spontaneously communicate with the aura of heaven and earth, and the efficiency is dozens or even hundreds of times that of self-cultivation. In other words, one day in a state of epiphany may be equivalent to the effect of a month or two of penance, or even several years. And God bless you, you have had an epiphany for more than three months, and the aura absorbed during this period is definitely massive. ”
Tianyou couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and asked, "But why can't I feel anything?" Although the aura on my body has indeed increased, let alone a month or two, I am afraid that it is not even my own spiritual power that has been cultivated for three months. That's too big a gap, isn't it?"
Zhenyuan Shangxian walked up to Tianyou, stretched out his hand and poked hard in his chest a few times, it seemed that he was pointing at Tianyou, but in fact, it was the tattoo where Moon Shadow was hiding.
"You should know that your own body requires a lot more spiritual power than the average person. You have been absorbing the aura for more than three months, but the aura you need is still not enough for your body. Therefore, your cultivation improvement is actually very small. ”
Tianyou listened to Zhenyuan Shangxian's words, and there was not much surprise in his heart, but he did feel a little pity. Moon Shadow has loved to snatch the aura that enters his body since she started following her, and she is like a bottomless pit, no matter how much God Blessing gets, it is always not enough.
This epiphany can be said to be an accident, although Tianyou didn't expect to get much improvement this time, but suddenly knew that the spiritual power was swallowed by the moon shadow, and he had an epiphany in vain, and he would still be a little lost.
I didn't find a chance to interject just now, but now Ji Yao finally seized the opportunity and stared at Zhenyuan Shangxian and asked, "Could it be that God blessed him for more than three months, and there was no change in his cultivation?"
Compared with Tianyou, Ji Yao may value Chu Extraordinary more, but this does not affect her concern for Tianyou. Suddenly hearing that Tianyou's improvement was minimal, Ji Yao finally couldn't control her emotions.
Zhenyuan Shangxian didn't avoid Ji Yao this time. What he wants to hide is that Tianyou actually has a hidden demon pet, as for cultivation...... This thing can't be hidden.
"Don't be too impatient and misinterpret me. I'm just saying that Tianyou needs too much spiritual power, so the improvement brought by more than three months of epiphany is negligible compared to the duration of his epiphany, not that Tianyou really hasn't made the slightest progress. On the contrary, God bless you for your great progress. Speaking of this, Zhenyuan Shangxian suddenly asked again: "By the way, what cultivation level did you have before?"
"Level 15. The pinnacle of the refining period of the refining realm. ”
"Then congratulations, now you are at the peak of the physical training realm, and you have just improved by ten levels compared to before. It would take at least three years for an ordinary disciple to advance to this tenth level, but you only need three months. ”
