Chapter 7 Washing the Scriptures and Cutting the Marrow
Li Xiuyan jumped up from the ground with a carp, and while far away from the shore, he looked up and found that he was on an isolated island, surrounded by water, and as far as the eye could see, there were patches of white mist.
In the center of the island, there is a row of stairs about seven or eight feet high, and at the end of the stairs, there is a magnificent, resplendent palace, suspended in mid-air.
"What kind of place is this?" Li Xiuyan asked in his heart.
"This is a part of the Nine Realms space, you come up from the stairs, and I will wait for you in the hall. The voice of the soul came from the great hall in the distance, and the voice was ethereal.
Li Xiuyan didn't think much about it, and walked straight to the stairs, all the way up the stone steps, and finally came to the front of the hall.
The closed gold-lacquered door automatically opened when Li Xiuyan stepped in front of the hall, and the scenery in the hall suddenly came into Li Xiuyan's eyes.
Li Xiuyan was stunned, he never thought that this hall was full of dead people's tablets, and after a rough count, there were at least a thousand, what kind of place is this?!
Just as he was frightened, a translucent figure walked out of thin air behind him.
Li Xiuyan instinctively reflected, swung his fist up, and was stopped by the figure with a palm.
"Don't get excited, it's me. ”
The figure smiled at Li Xiuyan, and his voice sounded a little familiar, cheap.
"Are you a soul?" Li Xiuyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the translucent figure in front of him, regardless of appearance and body shape, was exactly the same as him.
"That's right, it's me. The Soul curled one corner of her lips.
"Okay, Lao Tzu finally saw you!"
Li Xiuyan's face suddenly changed, he flew up with a kick, and kicked straight towards the door of the soul face. But unfortunately, his kick did not hit the Soul, but passed through his face.
"You want to move me? You're too tender. The soul shook his head and deliberately said angrily.
Li Xiuyan frowned and looked at the soul for a moment, knowing that in his current state, it was impossible to move him, so he didn't try more, and he didn't bother to ask why he appeared here with his own appearance, he raised his chin at the tablets in the main hall and asked, "Who are these people?"
The soul put away the cheap smile on his face and said, "They are all your seniors. ”
"My senior?" Li Xiuyan was puzzled.
The soul said: "It's too early to talk about this, and I'll talk to you about it when I have a chance later." I got you in this time to have a relationship with you...... Phew, that's wrong, it's about building relationships!"
Li Xiuyan wiped the cold sweat that was startled on his forehead, "Scared me to death of you." ”
"Slip of the tongue. The soul gave himself a slap, and then grabbed Li Xiuyan's hand, and the translucent figure melted directly into Li Xiuyan's body.
At the same time, on the thumb of Li Xiuyan's left hand, a dark black ring with a strange shape appeared out of thin air.
Li Xiuyan felt a strange sensation coming from his thumb, and when he looked down, it was actually the Soul Key Ring.
"This ......" Li Xiuyan was a little confused, when he died in his previous life, he had swallowed the soul key ring and the Wan Jun key ring into his abdomen, and exploded his soul power, it is said that the two key rings should be shattered together with his body, how could they suddenly appear again?
The soul seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "You swallowed those two key rings, but they are just empty shells, and the one in your hand now is the real soul key ring." ”
"I see, no wonder it didn't work at all before. This time you can finally show my strength, right?" asked Li Xiuyan excitedly.
"You're thinking too much...... I can't give you a direct buff......"
"Damn! It's a bargain after all. ”
Before the soul could finish speaking, it was interrupted by Li Xiuyan's words.
"You stinky boy, you dare to say that I'm a bargain, right? Okay, I'll let you experience it today, what is a disaster from the mouth!"
The three words of bargain are almost about to become the reverse scales of the soul.
As his words fell, the scene in the hall suddenly changed, and the nearly a thousand tablets had disappeared, and in the empty hall, only Li Xiuyan was left alone.
Li Xiuyan vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and subconsciously wanted to run away from the door, but as soon as he took a step, a hair-like mass suddenly appeared on the ground under his feet, instantly swallowing his feet and spreading upwards rapidly.
"What are you doing?!"
There was a heart-piercing pain in Li Xiuyan's legs, as if he had been pricked by countless steel needles as thin as cow's hair.
Li Xiuyan was so painful that he almost lost his breath, but in a moment, those hairs had spread from his calves to his thighs, and they continued to rise.
"Soul, your uncle!"
Li Xiuyan scolded, if those hairs continued to rise, wouldn't his little brother want to ......
But at this moment, Li Xiuyan felt that the hair that had penetrated into the flesh was not destroying, but expanding his meridians......
Could this be the washing of the scriptures and the marrow!
Li Xiuyan was extremely shocked, no wonder the soul said before that he would suffer a little sin, but what kind of thing is this, it is clearly a hundred times more painful than death!
After half an hour of devastation, it seems that the washing of the marrow has finally ended.
At this moment, Li Xiuyan even regretted this rebirth, it was better to die like that, than to experience this legend, everyone dreamed of washing the scriptures.
"Isn't it cool?" The phantom of the soul separated from Li Xiuyan's body, and looked at Li Xiuyan with only half a life left with a dark face.
"Cool!" Li Xiuyan squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
The soul smiled weirdly, "What you just experienced is just a scripture washing, and then there is the marrow cutting!"
As soon as he heard this, Li Xiuyan's eyelids rolled and he wanted to faint to death on the spot.
Compared with the washing of the scriptures, the pain caused by the marrow removal seems to be less, but it is also possible that Li Xiuyan's body has become numb to the pain, so he has this illusion.
About half an hour passed, and after three faints, Li Xiuyan finally survived the ordeal of washing the meridians and cutting the marrow.
At this moment, he was lying naked in the main hall, naked, but on the surface of his skin, there was a thick layer of black scabs, making the originally handsome young man look like an ugly chimpanzee.
"Hey, you're disgusting like this, get up and deal with it. The soul waved his hand in front of Li Xiuyan.
Li Xiuyan didn't have any strength now, let alone talk about it, he didn't want to move his fingers, and he slowed down for a while before he spoke with difficulty, "This is what you said about suffering a little crime?"
At the same time as he spoke, the black scab on his face suddenly cracked, and his original skin could be seen through the cracks in the black scab.
The soul smiled, "If you want to become stronger, you have to pay some price, you say, right?"
"That's what you say. ”
Li Xiuyan felt that he was almost rested, so he got up from the ground, feeling like his whole body was covered with a layer of mud, dry, and uncomfortable to death, so he picked it with his hands, but he couldn't pick it clean at all, but he made himself feel like he had been gnawed by a dog.
"Go wash it, the water outside is cold and biting, but it's a rare good. The Wraith reminded.
Li Xiuyan vaguely felt that he was still playing tricks on himself, but if he didn't wash it up, he would be disgusted not by others, but also by himself.
So he immediately walked out of the main hall and went down the stairs to the shore.
"Are you sure this water is good for me?"
"Don't worry, I won't cheat you. ”
"If you pit me, you will die!" Li Xiuyan gritted his teeth and jumped directly into the cold and biting water.
