Yan Kaiting felt like he was in the Ding Furnace, and he felt like he was standing in the fire dragon in the workshop.

The flames burned from beneath their feet, and when they looked down, there was a bottomless abyss below, piled up with fuel that seemed to never diminish, burning more and more. Even the air around him burned, turning into a stream of fire and rushing into the meridians of the whole body.

Where the flowing fire flowed through the veins, it was scorching all the way forward, and at the end of the road was an incomparably restless and bright aura, blazing like the sun.

This domineering Yang energy looks very similar to the origin aura of the Fire Dao species.

However, Yan Kaiting's trance and vague spiritual wisdom always maintained a little clarity, he remembered very clearly, it was not his own five element attributes, and instinctively told him that he must not be assimilated by this fire breath!

If Yan Kaiting could still see his appearance at this moment, he would find that his clothes and most of the accessories had turned into ashes, and only the robe was still intact, but it was also dull in color, like metal with a dull surface after being burned.

His lips were cracked, his skin was oozed with bloody bruises, and when he exhaled, it was as if he was in the middle of winter, and his mouth and nose were full of white mist, and later it was even like the blazing water vapor spewing out of boiling water for a long time.

Yan Kaiting's sea of consciousness was in a strange state of half blurring and half sober.

The fuzzy half is on the verge of collapse. It was as if it would be destroyed by this scorching and terrifying fire in the next moment, and completely merged into the blazing breath of the sun, just like all the fire in the five elements would eventually return to the origin of the world.

The sober half, however, seems to be watching. The scorching brightness of the fire is as real as it is false, not pure enough, and it will always be on the move, bringing out the shadows of reality and indistinguishability, and it looks like an image in a mirror.

In the confusion, someone walked and stopped beside him, and something was cool on his forehead, then his cheeks, and his torso.

In fact, for the current Yan Kaiting, a wet hand towel is of no help at all, the water is evaporated by the high heat almost instantly, but the feeling of coolness remains.

The man had been moistening his lips with water and wiping his body with a rehydrated hand towel.

So although Yan Kaiting was still in the heat and suffering, the sober half gradually had a richer feeling.

He remembered the stream of fire, and he remembered the nightmarish and unforgettable taste it had bringed.

That is the "obstacle" that he has never been able to break through, the embodiment in the sea of knowledge.

Because he is a fire Dao species, the bottleneck on the path also appears in the form of a fire stream. If the divine consciousness is unstable and the Dao mind is confused, it will be swallowed up by that "false fire", and at least it will never be able to advance, and at worst it will be regressive.

This "obstacle" has appeared since Yan Kaiting married "Taichu" on the night of the ancestral hall, and it often becomes part of his nightmares.

However, in the past six years, even if Yan Kaiting has not been able to break through, no matter how bad a nightmare or a heart barrier is, it can't defeat him.

Now that he had this awareness, Yan Kaiting gradually calmed down, guarding the sea and the sky, waiting for the messy illusions that had appeared countless times to reappear.

Sure enough, the roaring tail of the flames slowly changed, and various light points and lines gradually combined into images that seemed to be able to distinguish meanings.

It's still an endless battle, and so many creatures are attacking each other, as if you can hear the sound of killing for a moment's attention.

Looking at this scene, although the scene is different every time, but the theme is the same, Yan Kaiting's heart has not had the slightest wave.

However, a loud "poof" sound like thunder exploded in the entire sea of knowledge, which was Yan Kaiting's heart beating heavily. He saw a familiar face in the rapidly changing fragment image.

At this moment, a cool breath was sprinkled from the emptiness above the sea of knowledge.

Yan Kaiting's attention was distracted for a moment, and it turned out that the person from the outside world gently placed a new handkerchief on his forehead. So he jumped sharply, like a heart about to burst, and returned to its original pulsating rhythm.

Yan Kaiting quietly stared at the face that was the same as his father, holding a familiar weapon and performing a familiar move. And when he could clearly see that the person who was fighting against him had the same face as himself, Yan Kaiting no longer had the shocking feeling he had before.

It's a nightmare unlike anything before. Perhaps subconsciously, there will indeed be such a battle. It's just that after Xiang Junsheng died on a hike, this nightmare will never come true again.

The flames hunted and rushed like an eternal flame, and the figures of the people who fought were constantly beating and changing. Suddenly, Yan Kaiting found that the faces of the two people had changed, and when he had this awareness, he immediately saw that the weapons in the hands of the two people had also changed.

They are, Tu City Lord and Tu Yucheng!

Yan Kaiting looked at the other father-son cannibalism in front of him in surprise, and suddenly a knife was cut between the two, the blade was slightly narrow and long, the frost flowers were fluttering, and there was an inexplicable chill in the fire.

It's "Bingxuan"!

Yan Kaiting shuddered suddenly, and finally, he was completely awake.

The scene in front of me was still a little blurry, but it was not because the high fever had affected his mind, but because the ashram was filled with hot steam, which had not yet completely dissipated.

Yan Kaiting saw a pair of cold eyes, but the eyes were concerned and soft.

It was Xia Pingsheng, the sleeves of his robe were folded in two and rolled up, and he was still holding a half-dried hand towel in his hand.

"Hmm...... Xia Shi ......" Yan Kaiting's voice was hoarse, so that he was a little surprised.

"Heh, fortunately, I wasn't burned stupid, usually after people have this kind of fever, nine and a half out of ten are stupid. Xia Pingsheng's cold words were two extremes, and the soft eyes that had not been completely put away were simply two extremes. "Who taught you to stay in the state after a serious injury?"

Only then did Yan Kaiting understand why his reaction to the "obstacle" this time was particularly serious.

He had never suffered such serious internal and external injuries, and he had never fought to the point of almost losing his strength, so he didn't expect for a while that when his body was already overdrawn, he should honestly run the method and recover his vitality step by step, instead of directly entering the meditation.

Yan Kaiting scratched his head and smirked at Xia Pingsheng, hoping to get through the trick.

Xia Pingsheng directly threw the handkerchief in his face.

Yan Kaiting grabbed the handkerchief, endured the feeling of weakness after the severe pain in the meridians all over his body, and struggled to sit up. "Thank you, Master Xia, for helping me tide over this difficult time. ”

Xia Pingsheng sneered: "I can't help you. You are really fire, and I am a wood genus, plus the fire genus of wood fire, if you are channeled to the meridians, you will only die faster!"

Yan Kaiting grinned awkwardly: "No, no, don't bother you to guide you." In fact, it's not really a rage, it's just a bottleneck of dislocation. ”

The real fire is rampant, for the fire genus, in fact, the monk's true qi is out of control. The most terrible thing is that if the reason for the loss of control is that the cultivation method is deviated, and the monk is still in a state of concentration, it will directly stir up the sea of knowledge, causing irreversible damage.

And the genus of the five elements of the Dao species has its own life, especially in the case of being associated with the sea of knowledge, even if the realm is high, it cannot be easily started, and if the attributes are not compatible, a bad one will prompt a loss of control.

Yan Kaiting is a mutant thunder species of the fire genus, if he can't know the exact reason for the rampage, even ordinary water powerhouses don't dare to make a move. Thunder breath enters the water, but it will spread through the air.

Hearing him say this, Xia Pingsheng's cold face eased slightly. It's another thing to encounter a bottleneck in cultivation, Xia Pingsheng himself has been stuck in the position for ten years, and he also knows that the process of realizing obstacles and enlightenment is not in a hurry.

At this time, the steam in the quiet room completely dissipated, but Yan Kaiting's appearance was very embarrassed, his hair was wet and disheveled.

Xia Pingsheng glanced at him and said disgustedly: "Go and clean up, you are not allowed to re-enter the house in the past two days, and wait until the injury is completely healed." As he spoke, he waved the man to the other end of the cave.

Yan Kaiting's eyes flickered, and he was already lying on the edge of the steps of the pool. He reached down to feel the temperature of the clear pool water, and then smiled bitterly, this is cold enough for winter swimming.

Of course, for monks, the temperature of the bath water is only related to comfort and enjoyment, as long as it is not the cold method of the Ten Thousand Years Xuanbing, there is not much difference.

Yan Kaiting moved himself into the water, and then touched his chin. Xia Pingsheng has always had a solemn temperament that is almost old-fashioned, but the more familiar he is, the greater the contrast.

When Yan Kaiting cleaned up, he found that it was already night outside, and he didn't wake up until the next night with a high fever.

If Xia Pingsheng hadn't been taking care of him and alleviating the torment of high fever for him, he might not have been stupid, but maybe he wouldn't have sobered up so quickly.

And for the first time, in the fragments of a nightmare, he saw a clear image with a complete memory after waking up. It's just that the content of this video is too mocking. Yan Kaiting didn't know if this kind of illusion, which had no factual basis, could be regarded as the loosening of the bottleneck of cultivation.

He instinctively didn't want to take this issue out and discuss it with Xia Pingsheng, and after having dinner in the cave mansion, he said goodbye and went back to his courtyard.

Xia Pingsheng didn't care much about him, although there were many people with different intentions in the Yan Mansion in front of him, the safety of Yan Kaiting should not be a problem.

All kinds of indications show that the masterminds behind this city riot have calculated the interests and investment very clearly, and obviously have no intention of investing more in Yujing City. Then at least before the alliance conference is held, they will not come to provoke Xia Pingsheng.

As soon as Yan Kaiting walked out of the courtyard gate of the snowy region, he received a summons. He groaned slightly, replied to the message, and then ran to the border between the guest house and the outer street, and waited on the wall.

The nearby sentry was no longer surprised by this, and when they came out to show their faces, they went back to squat down.

A moment later, a figure appeared outside the street.

After Yan Kaiting received Tu Yuyong, the two did not speak, and ran all the way into the garden. At this time, there were no guests in the guest house, and all the courtyards were closed except for the "snowy area" where Xia Pingchang lived.

Yan Kaiting led Tu Yuyong to an old banyan tree, the body of which was close to the outside of the wall, the canopy was like a cover, tilting to one side, stretching into the courtyard next to it, and almost covering the sky of half of the courtyard.

The two of them jumped neatly onto the treetops, walked along the branches, and jumped to the roof of the main house of the courtyard.

This can almost be regarded as the location of the guest house closer to the center, and the view is very broad. Due to the layout, the line of sight crosses the tips of various flowers and trees, and what you can see most clearly is not the virtual reality in Yanfu, but the movement of the Yujing block.

Yan Kaiting and Tu Yuyong didn't speak, but they sat down back to back, and then they were silent together for a while.

"I've killed people. "Tu Yu said.

"I've killed people too. Yan Kaiting said.
