In the immeasurable heavenly realm, the seven-colored moonlight and the light emitted by the candlesticks and lamps on the platform of the Purple Cloud Residence shine together, forming one beautiful halo after another. Xia Qiu was lying on the table, copying some sentences on rice paper with a brush over and over again that she couldn't read, this was the task that Ouyang Xueye taught her, and she felt like she was back in the world in a trance, so she still had homework to finish at such a late hour.

After another two days of training, she was already ready to smash the scarecrow set by Ouyang Xueye along the way with a wooden knife in a fast ride, and the time was shortening every time. I thought that he would be rewarded with a few words, but in this regard, he was obviously much more stingy than Ouyang Hongye and Ouyang Yong, not only did he not have half a word of praise and encouragement, but he made a new request to her, riding a horse and archery. She had never learned archery before, so she had to start with the basics.

She became more and more unable to figure out what the meaning of Ouyang Xueye's training method was, and he never took too much pleasure in explaining, but just insisted on going his own way, so that even Xia Qiu began to have a bit of a rebellious mentality.

That morning, when she heard that Ouyang Xueye wanted her to learn archery, she couldn't help complaining: "I'm better at swordsmanship than archery, and it's good if I have enough time to master one more skill, but now that time is limited, shouldn't I pick a better project to strengthen?" ”

"You're good at swordsmanship?!" The corners of Ouyang Xueye's mouth raised and asked her, her tone seemed to be a little contemptuous.

Xia Qiu became even more angry when he heard him ask himself like this, so he responded: "Yes! ”

"Okay, I'll accompany you for a few tricks!" After Ouyang Xueye finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and summoned a wooden sword and made a posture of battle.

Xia Qiu thought that although her strength had not fully recovered compared to before, the sword routines and combat experience she had learned and realized by herself were still there, and it should not be a problem to compare with Ouyang Xueye for a few rounds, but when she actually fought him, she found that the truth was not like that at all.

It is also a wooden weapon, Ouyang Xueye can make the clouds flowing and majestic, even if the wooden sword can still make the other party feel the powerful sword qi, but on the other hand, Xia Qiu's action of wielding the wooden knife, is completely muddy and weak.

Ouyang Xueye lightly jumped back to dodge the knife stabbed by Xia Qiu, then flashed to the left, and then jumped forward to hold her right wrist holding the knife, although she understood that this moment meant that she had lost, but she was still not convinced in her heart. So he shook him off suddenly, and turned around to attack Ouyang Xue Ye with a horizontal whirlwind slash.

But when she turned around, she found that Ouyang Xue Ye had already disappeared, and he patted her from behind and said, "This is your so-called best knife technique, as expected, you have already lost before I even have a weapon!" ”

Xia Qiu was speechless, what Ouyang Xueye said was not wrong at all, if he encountered a strong opponent like him on the real battlefield, he was afraid that he would die in his hands without even having a chance to use the knife. The huge gap in strength between the two was frustrating, but at the same time, it was also motivating, and she decided to revisit the training he had arranged for herself.

Ouyang Xueye has a lot of strange ideas in her head, just take the book she is copying now, he requires her to copy the whole book three times every night before she can go back to her room to rest. The book was full of inexplicable words, and she read and read it, still not knowing what to do.

"Those who are psychic must first understand reason, and those who know reason can create something out of nothing...... Not scorched, not dry, strong soul, and not invaded......"

She felt that Ouyang Xueye was like a devil teacher who kept having problems in class every day and left a lot of homework for the students after class, but on the surface, he was extremely satisfied with the progress he had arranged, so she had to stick to it.

After the last time she communicated with Ouyang Xiaoleng, she told Ouyang Xue Ye about this matter, and he repeatedly told her not to tell other people about it, so as not to cause trouble, but it made her feel a little strange. In this immeasurable heavenly realm, apart from him Ouyang Xueye and the Elk Immortal of Ziyunju, the only people she could talk to were the big head and the jade cicada who were also on Bauhinia Island, and none of them looked like people who would frame her, even if they knew, what was there to worry about? She couldn't think of a reason, so she had to continue to focus on the heavenly book she copied.

Where the clouds protruded from the platform, Ouyang Xueye was sitting on the ground. He leaned back against the corner of his chair and drank wine silently alone, and in the past two days, for fear of disturbing the summer and autumn, he no longer invited Sanssouci Holy Child to come to drink and chat. Once the night of the Infinite Heavenly Realm was quiet, this Purple Cloud Residence would be extremely deserted, and the anguish in his heart would become particularly obvious. Needless to say, the feelings of missing his wife and children are self-evident, even in this seemingly calm and peaceful immeasurable heavenly realm, there are many hidden places that people cannot understand.

Jade Cicada had long discovered the emptiness here, and in order to prevent herself from falling and stop thinking, she set up a classroom to teach people singing and dancing. And Ouyang Xueye is the same, the book that Xia Qiu copied was actually written by him himself, part of which was the heart strengthening method taught to Ouyang Xueye by the first demon king Hu Li back then, this heart method has a great effect on enhancing the power of the soul, and the other part is some of the mental methods he has realized on Bauhinia Island in the past ten years. The reason why he asked Xia Qiu to copy this book was so that she could memorize and memorize the mental method backwards, which would not only help her reawaken the Plum Blade, but also give her a little more ability to defeat the evil spirit that had taken over her body at the last moment.

As for why he asked Xia Qiu to practice mounted archery, it was because after hearing about the enemy in the white cloak that Xia Qiu had mentioned before, he conducted some investigation. Coincidentally, there was an old man on Bauhinia Island who had been in a coma for many years due to serious injuries, and during the time he was in a coma, he lived in the realm of the soul, so he knew more about the situation there.

On the morning of the second day when Xia Qiu arrived at Bauhinia Island, Ouyang Xue left Ziyunju early to visit the old man. The old man was called Crane Lao, he was a crane demon in his lifetime, and after his death, he became a dead soul and still regarded himself as an idle cloud and wild crane, and spent most of his time fishing on the shore of the lake, and that day was no exception.

Ouyang Xueye parked his carving Yan by the lake, flew off his horse and tiptoed to him, but he still found it. The old man sat on a rock, holding a bamboo rod in one hand and resting naturally on his thigh. Without looking back, he said, "It's really rare that the island owner will come here!" ”

"Crane Lao!" Ouyang Xueye sat down on another rock and said, he looked at the wooden barrel next to him, and found that there was nothing in it except a whole bucket of water, so he knew that this crane old man had not gained much today.

"Why did you come to me, an idler?" Crane Lao raised his straw hat up and asked.

"I want to ask you about the Soul Escape!" Ouyang Xueye pulled a small piece of grass from the side and asked while moving it in her hand.

"Oh? Why did the owner become interested in this place? Crane looked at him and continued to ask, his eyes full of doubt, surrounded by criss-crossed wrinkles.

"It's just that I'm just a little interested in hearing from Sanssouci Holy Child that a group of monsters in white cloaks have suddenly appeared there recently, and they will attack outsiders for no reason." Ouyang Xueye didn't tell the truth anymore, but took a detour.

"Those monsters haven't been there for a day or two, I've seen them before, but they shouldn't have attacked the revenants at will, at least I haven't been attacked by them. But I heard that they are controlled by someone, and the specific ......" Crane Lao said this, but he stopped talking, as if there was something difficult to say.

"What? Is there anything inconvenient to say? The more he did this, the more it aroused Ouyang Xueye's interest in continuing to ask.

"Someone once told me not to tell anyone else what I saw and heard in the Soul Realm, otherwise it would be against me." A trace of fear suddenly flashed in Crane Lao's eyes, he never thought that someone would ask him about that world.

"In this immeasurable heavenly realm, is there still such an alarmist and threatening person?" Ouyang Xue Ye became more and more concerned.

"Why not?!" Elder Crane asked rhetorically, then turned his face to the side.

"It seems that this person's power is above mine, so you have scruples in front of me for his sake." Ouyang Xueye had probably guessed who the person Crane Lao was afraid of was.

"Owner, you are a smart person, why do you have to say it?!" He Lao had long felt that his luck was not good today, and after sitting by the lake for a long time, not only did he not catch a single fish, but he was also asked by Ouyang Xueye about what he didn't want to say.

"Since I guessed who's threatening you, just tell me what you know, and I won't tell anyone else!" Ouyang Xueye said in a sincere tone.

"Okay!" Crane knew that he couldn't dodge, so he retracted the fishing line, put the fishing rod on the side, and continued, "I only know that those white cloaks are actually a special kind of creatures in the Soul Separation Realm, white bats, they are all under the orders of one person, that person's lair should be in the dense forest of the Soul Separation Realm, and he and those white bats have been hiding there for a long time, and they seem to have been plotting some kind of plan. When I was still in the Soul Separation Realm, I often saw him send those white bats to do things for him, and their power was very great, and they could even influence the Demon Realm and the Infinite Heaven Realm. ”

Ouyang Xueye's appearance at the crane should be telling the truth, and then it is related to the fact that Xia Qiu was awake in the dense forest at that time, and the group of white bats were purposefully doing things for a person, it seems that the reason why they caught her was also to obey the arrangement of that mysterious person. She had just arrived at the Soul Separation Realm when she was chased by the monsters, which showed that those people knew everything about her actions, so it was speculated that the mysterious person was likely to be related to Qingyun.

And the one in Crane Lao's mouth just now that made him worry and didn't dare to speak must be the Lord of the Infinite Heavenly Realm. When Ouyang Xue first arrived at the Infinite Heaven Realm, he felt that he was a person who had no quarrel with the world, and although he didn't have much contact with him, he was very much in agreement with his way of doing things freely and comfortably. And he originally thought that the Infinite Heavenly Realm would be a lifeless place, but after he came, he found that it was very vibrant and managed, and there were often interactions between the islands, and various competitions would even be held on Bauhinia Island every season, which was very interesting.

But since about a few years ago, it seems that the very way has suddenly changed as if he has changed people, staying in his palace all day long, no longer interacting with people, and also clearly demarcating the hierarchy between the islands, prohibiting the souls of the dead from contacting other souls outside the island to which they belong. Violators were all escorted by the Immeasurable Walker to his palace above the clouds in the lake, and since no one had seen the violators who had been taken away since, no one knew what their fate would be.
