According to the records of the Eight Desolations and the Four Seas, there are strange insects in ancient times, whose name is Swallowing Spirit, with a fish's tail and wings on its back, who likes yin and cold, and loves to eat the essence and blood of living creatures......"

Ren Yuan explained to her, introducing the origin of this strange insect clearly.

"Although the spirit devouring is a floating worm, but it is powerful, it is not something that ordinary cultivators can deal with, in addition to devouring the essence and blood of the cultivator, the strange insect can also devour the spiritual energy, and consume the true qi in the cultivator's body, and finally the essence collapses, and the flesh and blood are lost and they die. ”

"Is there anything we can do with them?" asked Xiaocai in a low voice, turning pale.

"This is naturally there, everything in the world will eventually be unable to escape the principle of mutual restraint, no avenue, no true immortal, no matter how strong you are, it is just a chess piece between heaven and earth. ”

Ren Yuan sighed and said: "Everything in this world speaks of a method of mutual restraint, although the spirit swallowing is strong, but it can't take half a step from Xiaotan in his life, and he can't control his own life, once he loses this white lotus, it won't be long before they lose their lives." ”

"Ahh......h

"Isn't it worthless for them? Ren Yuan saw Xiaocai's thoughts.

"Uh-huh. Xiaocai nodded and said, "I didn't expect such a powerful monster to be unable to control its own destiny, and it couldn't even protect its own life, so what should we do if we are so small?"

Xiaocai's eyes were a little dull, and the girl who had not been deeply involved in the world was very uneasy after experiencing such a tragic and terrifying scene, and she was very afraid after hearing that she could not become a real immortal and could not take her life. She was worried that she would not be able to embark on the path of immortality, and finally left Ren Yuan.

"Xiaocai, are you scared?" Ren Yuan saw Xiaocai's inner uneasiness.

Xiao Cai didn't hide Ren Yuan's words at all, just nodded, and then said in a crying voice: "Xiao Cai is afraid that she will not be able to set foot on the fairy road, afraid that she will become a chess piece, and she will not be able to control her own fate, become a walking corpse, and finally leave the owner." ”

After speaking, Xiaocai pear blossom brought the rain up, she spit out her thoughts, she very much hoped that Ren Yuan could come to comfort her.

Seeing such a scene, Ren Yuan only sighed helplessly, he understood that no matter how good a person is, as long as he is afraid, then his road will not go far. So Ren Yuan decided to enlighten Xiaocai and let her regain her confidence.

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are dogs, and the fairy road is rare for me to break it with ten thousand laws. Each of us is fighting with this avenue of heaven and earth, not to mention immortal cultivators, the so-called cultivation of immortals is to go against the sky, in order to get rid of the suffering of reincarnation, in order to spy on the avenue we have to fight against heaven and earth. ”

Ren Yuan said earnestly, he hoped that Xiaocai could understand his good intentions, no matter how he said that Xiaocai could be regarded as his first disciple, he didn't want to give up a disciple with such a good talent.

"It is said that God has mercy, blessing all things, rain and dew are faint and fragrant, and fish are playing in the pool. Heaven and earth are full of kindness to all things, but only to our immortal cultivators who maliciously do everything, there are often thunderbolts in the world, and there are often people who are wiped out because they can't survive the catastrophe, and their hard lives come to naught in the end. ”

"Why do you say this? Obviously, you already know that the fairy road is difficult, why do people still choose to go?Xiaocai, what do you say this is for?" Ren Yuan asked Xiaocai rhetorically.

"In order to be able to protect the people you care about for a long time. Xiaocai didn't dare to look at Ren Yuan's eyes, and whispered back.

"Yes, people have too many worries to protect in this life, but people's power is too small, so there will inevitably be many regrets in life. Therefore, for the love of the heart, in order to protect the people who want to be protected, in order to get rid of the suffering of reincarnation, in order to have a prominent position...... People embarked on the path of immortals and chose to go against the sky. ”

"Although the life of a mayfly is cheap, its will is firm. No matter how long and difficult the road ahead is, you must also meet and break the bloodstream, and you must do your best. Even if the Nine Days Thunder Tribulation comes, I will carry it on my shoulders. ”

"Xiaocai, I hope you can understand that there is no room for fear on the fairy road, because once there is fear in your heart, the fairy road will come to an end. ”

"Uh-huh... Xiaocai understood, it was all Xiaocai's fault, and Xiaocai was blamed for being so timid and weak......" After speaking, Xiaocai gave herself a big mouth, Ren Yuan wanted to stop her, but unfortunately she was a step too late.

"Owner, Xiaocai understands, Xiaocai promises that from now on I will no longer doubt it, I will not retreat again, I will practice hard, and I will always stay by your side. Xiaocai smiled tearfully, she was very ashamed of her gaffe just now, she didn't want Ren Yuan to think that she was a little girl who could only cry.

"It's great that you can wake up from this, Xiaocai, don't worry, your talent is not bad at all, you are born with a Dao body, I will definitely help you go further on the immortal road." Ren Yuan looked at Xiaocai and said with relief.

The wind helped over, Xiaotan regained calm, the blood and stumps and broken arms were swallowed up by the strange insects in the water, and at this time, only Ren Yuan and Xiaocai were left at the water's edge, Xi Feng and Bai Yin had already left before the human race and the demon clan fought because of something.

"Dongjia, do you want the white lotus in the lake?" Xiaocai was very puzzled, Ren Yuan had said that the white lotus was useless to him before, but why did he refuse to leave?

"I'm more interested in these strange insects in the water than in the white lotus. Ren Yuan smiled faintly.

"Ah, what do you want these monsters to do!" Xiaocai was surprised: "I saw these monsters so ferocious just now, don't take any risks!"

"Haha...... I've got a plan. After speaking, Ren Yuan walked towards the water.

Then he waved his hand slightly, and he saw a burst of fluorescence floating to the water, turning the gloomy lake into stars and brilliant lights.

"Lead tassels, purify the world, purify the filth. Ren Yuan pinched his fingers and chanted a mantra, and the water suddenly shone brightly.
