Chapter 8 Self-examination

"I didn't expect you to bring these things back. ”

On a small hillside at the head of the village, Long Yuan is standing in front of a small earthen bag, with an unobstructed view of the village of no return, and there is also a stone tablet in the direction of the village of no return, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance are engraved with the words "The tomb of the villagers who died in the bone gap".

Yu Lao's voice was full of incredulity, although Long Yuan's personality has become introverted and gentle after serving as a school master in the past few years, Yu Lao understands in his heart that the coldness in Long Yuan's bones is still there.

"Everyone dies once, and then they will be reincarnated, and then they will walk in this world, but being a nameless lonely ghost in such a violent corpse wilderness will inevitably end up a little desolate, so if you can help, you can help it. Long Yuan's voice was full of sadness, and his lowered gaze was dim.

"I don't know if anyone will help them. A murmur echoed across the hillside.

Yu Lao naturally heard the sadness in Long Yuan's words, and he also knew who he was referring to when he said it.

"Then why don't you give these things back to their families?" Yu Lao did not say anything to comfort them, but continued to ask.

"Time can heal the wounds of the soul, and only memories are left for the deceased, and people, who are such an easily forgotten race, will forget a lot, and then continue to live calmly. ”

Yu Lao didn't quite agree with Long Yuan's words, but he didn't interrupt Long Yuan, just because every Heavenly Mandate Master had been comprehending the Heavenly Dao since he stepped into the cultivation, and each Heavenly Mandate Master had a different perception of the Heavenly Dao.

Just as what Long Yuan said now is his perception of the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Mandate Masters can confirm each other, but it is not advisable to refute the other party face to face, this is a big taboo, if it is not handled well, it may cause a dispute between the Great Dao, and destroy the other party's Dao to strengthen his own cultivation path.

What's more, Yu Lao is just a machine spirit, and he has never embarked on the path of cultivation of the Heavenly Mandate Master, so how can he be qualified to refute Long Yuan?

"These relics are so broken and even bloodstained that you can imagine how much pain they suffered before they died, and if you put these bloody realities in front of the villagers, it would be tantamount to tearing open the wounds in their hearts again, which may be too cruel for them.

Let them watch the village and watch over their loved ones here. ”

Long Yuan's eyes looked into the distance with deep eyes, everything around him was gradually disappearing from his perception, the scenery, the sounds, and even the ubiquitous aura of fate between heaven and earth.

His whole person was in a mysterious state, and bursts of inexplicable emotions were transmitted to the depths of his soul, and Long Yuan's soul trembled under the surrounding of this emotion.

This state came and went quickly, and it was only a moment from falling into it to getting out of it, and Long Yuan could feel that although he had not made the slightest improvement in cultivation, his body had undergone an insonable change compared to before.

Long Yuan's changes Yu Lao naturally didn't know, but as a tool spirit that had existed for an unknown number of years, the strong soul fluctuation just now was clearly felt.

Yu Lao faintly had a guess, but this guess set off a storm in Yu Lao's heart, making Yu Lao constantly deny it, but he was even more convinced.

"Go back, your wounds haven't healed yet, you need to rest more." The old man suppressed the shock in his heart and said loudly.

"Don't get in the way, my injuries are already healed. Long Yuan didn't care about his injuries, he paid more attention to the gains and losses in the process of fighting with the Wolf King.

In his first tentative confrontation with the Phantom Wolf King, Long Yuan found that he was at a disadvantage in terms of speed and strength, especially when the Phantom Wolf King's forelimbs were on his arm, and when the volley did not borrow strength, he pushed him back a few steps with the strength of his forelimbs alone, which showed that the Phantom Wolf King easily suppressed himself in terms of strength, in order not to show his clumsy appearance, Long Yuan used all his strength to stabilize the retreat.

The second is speed, Long Yuan has been in a situation of being beaten passively, it's not that he doesn't want to take the initiative, just because Long Yuan understands that he can't catch up with the Phantom Wolf King at all, and he is more than one step behind in speed, so he can only use his realized "Unfixed Step" to dodge the Phantom Wolf King's attack in a small area to cover up his own lack of speed.

It was precisely because of Long Yuan's good performance that he gave the Ghost Wolf King the illusion that he could not be close combat.

Long Yuan, who discovered this, pretended to take the initiative to melee with the Ghost Wolf King, forcing the Ghost Wolf King to dare not approach him again, but instead used a long-range attack that consumed more Xuan Qi to obstruct it.

But if you keep it for a long time, you will inevitably have the risk of being hit, which Long Yuan naturally took into account, and he can be so fearless, because of the clothes on his body.

Coincidentally, in order to practice "No Step", I tried to refine a dress that seemed light and thin but weighed hundreds of pounds, but I didn't expect this dress to unexpectedly have a defensive power comparable to stainless steel armor.

And all this made Long Yuan have a crazy plan in his heart, and this plan became clearer and clearer in his heart.

After finalizing the plan, Long Yuan began to consciously save physical strength and Xuan power, and compared with Long Yuan, the consumption of physical strength and Xuan power by the Ghost Wolf King was unscrupulous, and it could even be described as profligacy.

Every time Long Yuan took a few steps at random, the Ghost Wolf King would retreat like a frightened bird, and at the same time, he had to keep his light claws to stop Long Yuan, not noticing the rapid passage of physical strength and mystical power.

Not only that, Long Yuan also deliberately deviated to the left every time he moved, and the Ghost Wolf King, who had learned from the past, mistakenly thought that Long Yuan was going to attack his own injuries, and every time he had to do a lot of sideways movements to avoid the exposure of the injuries, these insignificant small details accumulated, causing the upper injuries on the hind legs of the Ghost Wolf King to continue to worsen, and the wounds on the abdomen were healed again.

At the same time, Long Yuan avoided the important and chose some less important places to be hit by the Phantom Wolf King, making it feel that Long Yuan was in a desperate situation, and as long as he worked harder, he could hunt Long Yuan.

Long Yuan, who had already understood the character of the Ghost Wolf King, knew that his previous actions had angered the Ghost Wolf King, and the state he was showing now, the Ghost Wolf King, who had the upper hand, had no reason to let him go.

In order to confirm his judgment, Long Yuan also tried to retreat from the battle, but the Ghost Wolf King still bit him, and the performance of the Ghost Wolf King let Long Yuan know that the "fish" had taken the bait, and all that remained was to wait slowly for the opportunity to come.

In this tug-of-war, on the surface, it seems that the Ghost Wolf King is flying Long Yuan's "kite", but in fact, Long Yuan is fishing for the Ghost Wolf King.

Then Long Yuan's unbearable performance also made the Ghost Wolf King begin to disdain, and in the end, he didn't bother to retreat in the face of Long Yuan's breakthrough, Long Yuan in the dodge naturally had everything in his sights, and Long Yuan understood that the fire was almost over.

Because the Ghost Wolf King has relaxed his vigilance, this kind of psychological relaxation is accompanied by physical relaxation, coupled with the fact that the Ghost Wolf King is already injured, it is impossible to recover to the best state in a short time, and this is the last foreshadowing that Long Yuan laid for the final killer move, making the Ghost Wolf King incapacitated.

Then Long Yuan deliberately exposed the flaw and let the Wind Blade of the Ghost Wolf King hit, feeling that the power contained in it was significantly weakened, Long Yuan concluded that the Ghost Wolf King's Xuan Qi was also about to run out, and finally Long Yuan was able to survive the explosion of the light claw to verify his guess.

In order to be able to hit with one blow, Long Yuan also pretended to be desperate and lost his mind and rushed towards the Ghost Wolf King, and at the same time, the Xuan Qi in his body had already operated according to the mantra of "Heart Destroying Finger".

In the end, under the cover of the explosion of the light claw, he stretched out the fangs that had been hidden for a long time and killed the Ghost Wolf King in one fell swoop, but Long Yuan still underestimated the power of the "Heart Destroying Finger" and the Light Claw of the Ghost Wolf King, but it was the underestimation of the two that made Long Yuan survive, and successfully pushed the "Heart Destroying Finger" to the second layer of the realm of "blood coagulation".

And the price of all this is that Long Yuan's left arm is no longer as perfect as before, and the flaw on his left arm will inevitably become the weakness of the enemy's attack in future battles, just like Achilles' heel.

It can be said that the Ghost Wolf King lost this time not in strength, but in attitude, it was to underestimate the enemy, if it used all its strength at the beginning, regardless of its own injuries, then the ending may be different.

In fact, it can't be blamed that the Ghost Wolf King is not cautious enough, it can only be said that Long Yuan's mind is like a demon, and he has been calculating the Ghost Wolf King from the beginning, letting the Ghost Wolf King walk towards Long Yuan's death trap step by step, and he has the heart to calculate that the Ghost Wolf King will not be wronged if he loses.

It's just that in the end, the "blood curse" of the Phantom Wolf King surprised Long Yuan, and he was really overshadowed, and what made Long Yuan even more depressed was that Yu Lao told him that this thing couldn't be washed off, and warned Long Yuan to be careful when he encountered the wolf clan in the future.

Looking at Long Yuan's deflated appearance, Yu Lao was very addicted in his heart, after all, it was not easy to make Long Yuan, who was arrogant to the bone, deflated, and even Yu Lao couldn't help but thank the dead Ghost Wolf King, so that there was more content on his little black book, such as the previous refining "single bed", and this thing is also what Long Yuan wants to destroy the most in the future, but these are all later words.

"It's still not enough, if it's strong enough, why do you need such trouble, it's a pity that the village chief's blood path doesn't match my dao, it seems that I have to find the right exercise for me as soon as possible." After this battle, Long Yuan also had a clear understanding of his own strength, and at the same time, he also found a lot of shortcomings and the gap in strength between him and the Red Star Heavenly Destiny Master.

"Zhou Meng's strength should be comparable to that of the Ghost Wolf King. Long Yuan said.

Long Yuan has always had a feeling that Zhou Meng will attack himself in this village chief examination, and Long Yuan still attaches great importance to Zhou Meng.

In particular, Zhou Meng is likely to become the Red Star Heavenly Destiny Master, which makes Long Yuan very unsure, he feels very bad about liking to plan and decide, and think before acting.

That's why he decided to fight after meeting the ghost wolf queen, that is, Long Yuan made up his mind to weigh his strength and prepare for the competition with Zhou Meng in the near future.

But there was one thing that Long Yuan didn't want to admit, and that was the madness and killing desire that flowed in his blood. This is the dark side of Long Yuan, everyone has their own dark side in their hearts, but it is well hidden under the constraints of the rules, and compared to it, the dark side of Long Yuan is particularly strong.

Fortunately, with Yu Lao's explanation and tempering in the academy, Long Yuan has always maintained his true heart and has not been controlled by this madness and desire to kill, but this also makes Long Yuan have never fought heartily since he fought with Zhou Meng five years ago.

Until this time Zhou Heng's provocation and confrontation with Zhou Meng made his dark side explode again, just like a sword that has been in the sheath for a long time, wanting to drink blood again, Long Yuan wants the thrill of fighting between life and death, dancing on the tip of the knife.

Recalling Long Yuan's appearance when he fought before, Yu Lao's heart couldn't help but rise a trace of worry.
