Chapter 226 I could have endured the darkness if I hadn't seen the light...
"I... Am I still me?"
Zhang Yuanli blinked blankly, then frowned, a little at a loss. And with some trepidation, he muttered, "I'm still me, as if it's not me......
When he was young, he was talented, and his understanding was all the best choice, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was arrogant.
Before he met a Taoist partner, he never doubted whether his "morality" was correct.
But during a trip, he saw a woman turned into a fox demon practicing medicine to save people, and the "morality" that had been upheld for many years was shaken for the first time.
This kind of observation is not motivated by the sight of color, but comes from one's own questioning of oneself and the morality of the Heavenly Master.
Later, in order to test the fox girl's nature, he even pretended to be an injured mortal to talk to her...
As he got along for a long time, he was moved by the fox girl's purest and kind heart, and even secretly fell in love and moved his heart.
And he is a Heavenly Master Daomen, how can he not know that this is a bad fate, how can he not know the power of this forbidden thing?
He excused himself to leave, like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and fled all the way back to Xiangji Mountain, even at the expense of retreat, trying to forget the fox girl.
However, after breaking through to the God Refining Realm, the fox girl's face, voice, and all kinds of past events not only failed to forget, but became clearer and clearer...
Scene by scene echoed in his mind...
He knew that the fox girl had become his inner demon, and had become a hurdle that he had to cross in the realm of refining gods.
He mustered up the courage to go down the mountain again, ready to get rid of this demon with his own hands and end this evil relationship!
But after many years, when he saw the fox girl again, he was greeted by the fox girl's tears, desperate hugs, and the heartfelt voice and heartfelt expression that had been waiting for many years.
He hesitated, when he learned that the fox girl had already seen that she was a disciple of the Heavenly Master's Dao, and had guessed the purpose of her trip, and was even ready to die when they met again...
He fell, completely fell!
What demons, what morality, all left behind!
A person and a demon fall in love, complaining to each other...
After all, the paper couldn't contain the fire, and his abnormal posture in the Refining God Realm was also seen by the fellow master of the Heavenly Master Dao, and as time went by, the love affair with the fox girl was discovered.
He struck the bell with his head, begged the teacher to be kind, and defended the Taoist couple, and finally he and the fox girl were both punished by thunder, and he survived, but the fox girl died...
Like a walking corpse, he was expelled from the mountain gate.
Xu was at that time, Zhang Yuanli of the Heavenly Master Dao had already "died", and his life was cut into two at that time.
Since then, his temperament has changed greatly, he drinks heavily during the day, sleeps in the Qinglou at night, and lives in endless remorse...
I regret why I am a Heavenly Master Daomen, why I have to question morality, I regret that I have moved my mortal heart, I regret that I met the fox girl, and I regret it......
"You're still you, and you're not you."
Xu Boqing shook his head to himself and said, "You should pursue things and people with results, instead of always dwelling on the past."
He paused, then sighed and said, "Now you are like trapped in a cage of self-doubt, if you can come out, you can see another world."
"If you can get out, you can see a different world."
Zhang Yuanli muttered in despair, and then seemed to think of something, and asked with a crying smile, "Senior, what if I can't get out of that cage?"
「……」
"Is it like this until death?"
"Not bad..."
"Cage, cage......
Zhang Yuanli shook his head with a bitter look on his face, and said self-deprecatingly: "That junior has no hope of seeing the world outside the cage."
"The two encounters are fate, and thanks to you for calling me a senior."
Seeing that he was just shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Xu Boqing couldn't help but sigh and said, "That 'cage' is yourself, although I can't help you open the cage, but there is a way for you to see the world outside the cage!"
He paused, smiled and asked, "Do you want to see the world outside the cage?"
「……」
Zhang Yuanli's breath stagnated, and the hands in his sleeves trembled slightly, and he subconsciously responded, "Think!
」
As soon as he finished speaking, he found that the senior had appeared on his gourd and appeared in front of him!
"Empty your mind, don't resist..."
Xu Boqing said and picked up the trick, then raised his hand and slapped his palm on his chest, directly using the method of "iQue" to shoot his spirit out of his body.
「……」
Zhang Yuanli only felt that his head was empty, and his body seemed to fly out upside down, but he was surprised to find that his body was still attached to the palm of that senior...
Wrong!
How do I see my own!?
As if he realized something, Tong Kong shrank and looked at the back of his body with a face full of disbelief.
"Don't worry, I'll just help you shoot your soul, your body is fine, it's still here."
Xu Boqing also saw his fright, and withdrew his hand after a word of relief, while Zhang Yuanli's body was as if he was unconscious, and his feet collapsed on the gourd.
「……」
Zhang Yuanli looked at his body dumbfounded, and then looked at his hands again, and saw that his hands seemed to be between the virtual and the real, so he believed that he was really out of his body.
He was born in the Heavenly Master Dao, and he asked himself that there were many immortal cultivation techniques he had seen, but he had never seen a spell that could shoot people's souls out of his body...
"Don't stand stupid..."
Xu Boqing saw that he was still stunned, and said with a smile: "What you see me now is actually in a state of out-of-body consciousness, and it is not a big problem to leave my body in a short time, and my strength has increased unabated."
His voice paused, and then he said meaningfully, "Since you are out of this cage, you might as well try your strength outside this cage..."
"This ......"
Zhang Yuanli looked at him blankly...
After coming back to his senses, he nodded, and then the thunder in his soul suddenly appeared, like a thunder of the Nine Heavens soaring straight into the sky, majestic!
It was clear that the sky was blue and the sun was white, but as his spirit stood in the air, there were dark clouds gathering, showing lightning and thunder!
He stood in mid-air like Thor, his eyes shining with a breathtaking electric light, as if all the visions in the sky were his background!
"Drive away the thunder and lightning, and the demons will be punished!
」
With his order, the thunder snake rolled down from the sky, and compared to before, the momentum was even stronger!?
He made a move with an understanding, but saw the flying thunder snake entangled in his hand and turned into a thunder whip, the long whip turned into a thunderbolt waved, and a sharp sound of breaking the air seemed to sound in the air, like a divine punishment from heaven, and the sound was terrifying!
This......
Is this me?
This is the world outside the cage??
Zhang Yuanli muttered, the aura in his eyes faded, and the surrounding visions also dissipated, and he stood there stunned, his face half sad and half happy, showing a smile that he didn't know whether it was sad or surprised.
That feeling is like a person who is short-sighted and doesn't know it, and suddenly puts on matching glasses, and the world in his eyes becomes clear!
He suddenly regretted saying "yes", and he also regretted looking at the world outside this "cage......
"Not bad..."
Xu Boqing praised from the bottom of his heart...
Lei Fa is already just to the yang, although the means shown by Zhang Yuanli just now are few, but its momentum is extremely terrifying, just in terms of the power of the spell, I am afraid that it is even stronger than the old monk with long eyebrows I met before!
If he hadn't refined the old monk of Changmei before he met Zhang Yuanli at this time, under the lack of expensive magic methods, he really wouldn't necessarily be his opponent...
There are many ways to practice in this realm, and immortals, demons, ghosts, gods, Buddhas, and even Jianghu warlocks live here, each with their own way of cultivation, and the division of the realm is extremely weak.
Among the practitioners who are currently acquainted, planing
In addition to the power of the magic weapon, sister-in-law Ao Lan and the great monk Kongyan are both existences of the true body realm, which should be the first echelon;
The eldest nephew Long Xing, the old monk Changmei, Zhang Yuanli at this time, and Zhu Sisi, who has been created, belong to the second echelon!
Although Long Xing is a little afraid of society, and he has only seen him use the Divine Detention Technique once, but his breath is deep and long, and he is still the son of Ao Lan, plus the Dragon Palace has many treasures, Wu Qin also said that he is proficient in refining weapons and alchemy, and his strength is definitely not bad.
And Zhu Si Ling is hidden, and her cultivation is still improving, if it weren't for her own special demon subjugation method, she might not be able to subdue her.
The third echelon is Shi Ji, Wumei, and Su Su under his own door, Yu Hongchang, the emperor of Fucheng, Wu Qin, who is suspected of being the prime minister of the Dragon Palace, and Zhang Yuanli just now.
Among them, Yu Hongchang has the blessing of the priesthood, and his strength in the capital is good, but the range of leaving the capital will also decline.
Shi Ji, Wumei, and Wuqin should be in the middle of the best, and although Su Su has not been reborn for a long time, he has obtained a complete water god talisman and is full of potential.
As for Miao Jing...... Just be coquettish and cute.
Now he has not only refined the old monk with long eyebrows, but also learned a lot of small spells, filling the shortcomings of the vacancy of spells, probably slightly higher than the second echelon, but less than the level of the first echelon...
It shouldn't be difficult to resist his Lefa...
Zhang Yuanli saw that his predecessors admired the posture of his juniors, but at this time, he still couldn't see the depth of his predecessors, and his heart moved at the moment, and the word "true immortal" naturally jumped out of his mind...
"Senior's spell channel..."
He fell back on the gourd magic vessel, bowed down and said respectfully, "The younger generation has seen the world outside the cage, and there are no regrets in this life..."
"No regrets in this life?"
Xu Boqing chuckled lightly when he heard this, and asked with a meaningful smile, "You really think like that?"
"Junior...... The younger generation has regrets!
」
Zhang Yuanli didn't hide anything, and said with emotion: "If the younger generation has never seen the world outside this "cage", it is nothing, and after a chaotic life, it will be over......
He paused, then fell to his knees with a bitter face, gritted his teeth and said, "But now, the younger generation has seen the world outside this cage! The younger generation has regrets! It's a shame to die!
」
「……」
Xu Boqing was silent...
He was not expelled from the mountain gate by the Heavenly Master Dao, and when he fell in love with the fox girl, he was in the realm of refining gods, and now hundreds of years later, he has long entered the realm of the Dao but has never known it!
How sad is it?
