Chapter 13: Return to Heaven
The next morning, the wind outside the cave had become much lighter, and the sunlight shone through the thick clouds into the cave, and He Ding's body was bathed in the light, emitting a faint light, and there was a hazy feeling. At this time, He Ding's body showed an extremely strange posture, and the joints of his whole body were bent at an angle that ordinary people couldn't do, as if he was a marionette. And the clothes on He Ding's body have been almost broken, and the originally dark tripod-shaped birthmark on his chest has changed a little, and there are a few more lines on the side of the small ding, if He Ding sees it, he will definitely recognize that it is the hexagram in the gossip.
Without warning, the tripod-shaped birthmark flickered, emitting a faint blue light, incomparably softer, and then dimmed. Immediately after that, the hexagram next to the birthmark also began to emit blue light as if it had been induced, and the light was so faint that it was almost hidden by the sun's rays.
The air in the cave is exposed to sunlight, and at this time, you can faintly see that there are many tiny suspended matter floating in the air. And the air around the hexagram on He Ding's chest began to flow as if it was attracted. The visible particles moved slowly and regularly on He Ding's chest, pouring towards the hexagram from all directions.
A small tornado gradually formed on He Ding's chest.
At this moment, if there is a cultivator on the side, you will definitely be able to feel that the aura in the cave is rapidly decaying, and the source of the reduction is the Kan hexagram!
The hexagram shimmered with blue light, like a bottomless pit, wantonly absorbing the aura in the air. Gradually, there was not much aura left in the cave, and the air around the hexagram shook suddenly, and the suction increased sharply, and even the air outside the cave began to flow into the cave.
Niuqi Mountain, the cave house in the ear.
The room in the ear is antique, fully furnished, although it is not the ultimate elegance, but it is still better than ordinary people's homes. An Zai'er was sitting on a stone chair, with a plate of shriveled carrots on the table, his brows furrowed, and he was silent.
After yesterday's farce, An Zai'er is not very happy at the moment. Although he was a little better than the cliff, he didn't take that slap, and he wasn't tricked, but the strong man he snatched was ransomed for nothing, and he always felt that he had lost a lot.
He picked up the carrot on his plate, brought it to his mouth, and nibbled hard.
"If it weren't for that cliff and that old monster, I would have sown seeds in my field by now. Ann thought as she chewed in her ear. The carrot in his mouth tasted worse than he expected, he had lost a lot of water, and there was no crispiness in his mouth.
"The taste of this carrot that has been stored for a month is too bad...... "An Zai'er muttered to himself, "forget it, let's still cultivate." ”
With that, An Zai'er walked to the edge of the bed and sat down.
Demon cultivators and immortal cultivators are almost the same in their cultivation methods, both of them are transformed into their own usable true qi in the demon pill by absorbing the spiritual energy in the air, so that they can improve their realm and improve their strength over time, and when they break through the realm, they also need to realize themselves and break the bottleneck.
"What's going on?"
An closed his eyes for a moment, and then opened them again full of doubt.
"Why is the concentration of aura in the air so low today!" An Zai said incredulously as he felt the aura in the air. He wanted to absorb the aura, but the aura in the air was like a dry lake, less than a star and a half.
As a gathering place for demon cultivators, Niuqi Mountain has a degree of spiritual energy that cannot be compared to other places. At the beginning, the ancestor Kui Niu chose to establish a power here precisely because he took a fancy to the unique location of Niuqi Mountain and the richness of its aura, and Niuqi Mountain can be said to be a spiritual mountain treasure.
Who can suck up the aura of the entire Niuqi Mountain!
"What the hell!" Ann jumped off the bed, opened the door, and found that there was still a pitiful lack of aura in the air outside the door.
Not only was it in his ears, but at this moment, all the demon cultivators who were cultivating in Niu Qi Mountain had discovered this problem, and the depletion of their spiritual power made them run out of the cave where they were cultivating. The clearing on the mountain peak has gathered a lot of demon cultivators, most of them are in the Tongzhi stage, and only a few are in the demon pill stage.
"Damn! Lao Tzu has no aura in the cave, didn't you do it!"
"It's none of my business!
Seeing An Zai'er coming over, the leaderless demon cultivators surrounded him one after another.
"Does Elder An know what's going on?"
"I'm close to breaking through, what's going on!"
Looking at the group of demon cultivators in front of him, they were gossiping, noisy, and loud, and their ears were all bigger. He scratched the back of his head, after all, he didn't know what had happened to deplete the aura of the entire Niuqi Mountain. And he thought he couldn't do it.
......
In the cave.
The blue light on He Ding's chest was even more intense than before, and it emitted bright light in all directions, almost illuminating the entire cave. And He Ding's body is undergoing a storm-like change.
A pale blue liquid was flowing through He Ding's meridians. Everywhere passed, the muscles and blood that had lost their vitality took on their original color, and the broken nerves slowly began to return to their original positions.
The blue liquid swept through He Ding's body and finally came to his heart.
It was a heart that had long since stopped beating and turned dark black.
The blue liquid did not stagnate, and it rushed forward, enveloping the heart at once. It then gradually penetrates into the heart, and the heart slowly swells up.
When the blue liquid is gone, the heart also reaches the limit, and then it shrinks to the smallest in an instant like a deflated ball!
"Plop!!"
A powerful heartbeat sounded from He Ding's already stiff body, and that heartbeat represented vitality, echoing in the cave.
"Plop, plop!"
The second sound, the third sound, the continuous heartbeat came, He Ding's heartbeat had completely resumed beating, and at this time, his blood also began to flow under the impetus of his heart. The originally pale skin became rosy with the flow of blood, and the cold body slowly increased its body temperature.
He Ding's face had completely regained its bloody color, but his eyes were still closed.
"Gurgling ......"
There was a sound in He Ding's abdomen, since yesterday morning's breakfast, He Ding had never eaten again, and when he fought with the giant rat, he had consumed a lot of physical energy, and his stomach was already empty.
"I'm hungry......"
He Ding muttered, only to see him slowly open his eyes, and then close them again because the sunlight was too strong. After a long while, after getting used to it, I half-squinted and opened my eyes.
"It's ...... Where?"
He Ding turned his head and looked to both sides, there were stone walls all around, and his first reaction was that he was still in the stone chamber of the rat prison. But there was a dazzling sunlight shining in, and after thinking about the structure of the rat prison, he denied the idea that this was a rat prison.
"It's like a hole...... How could I be here?" He Ding muttered to himself, wanting to sit up and look out of the cave. When he supported himself with his hands, he found that he couldn't get up anyway.
Because when his hand touches the ground, it bends at a very strange angle.
"Shhh...... Ahh Where is this an ordinary fracture, it is clear that it is all shattered.
"My feet!" He Ding discovers another tragic truth.
He shook his feet and found that his feet had become rubber-like, which meant that his limbs were now in a state of comminuted fractures.
"What the hell is going on!!" He Ding's mind was very confused now, he saw the corpse of the giant rat next to him, and he couldn't accept the status quo for a while.
Originally, in the stone room, he thought that he was dead, and biting the jade sword was already relying on his last consciousness. What happened after that, he couldn't guess.
"No, I want to be calm, calm down. He Ding shook his head and said to himself.
He Ding's limbs were still conscious at this time, and it was possible to open his hands and shake his toes. He felt something in his hand, so he turned his head to see that it was Mu Ding, whom he had desperately saved from the giant rat's mouth.
"Great! Mu Ding didn't lose it!" He Ding said happily. He didn't know that he was unconsciously forcing himself to stand up. He took out the wooden tripod from under the corpse of the giant rat and grasped it in his hand, and he never let go of his hand in the fierce collision of falling off the cliff.
This Mu Ding gave him hope, and Qiu Shiyue's appearance flashed in He Ding's mind again, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a resolute light shot out of his eyes.
"I must not die! I want to live!!"
"Gurgling ......"
"Ah, let's solve the problem of hunger first......" There was a feeling of weakness in his abdomen, He Ding felt that his stomach was about to retract, he hadn't eaten for a whole day, and he had lost so much blood before, he was already hungry and faint at this time.
"But...... What to eat?" He Ding thought, he looked around, except for the stones.
His eyes stopped at the corpse of the giant rat.
"Ahh......h
"No, no, no, how can you eat corpses...... And it's a rat corpse, disgusting to death, and I won't eat it even if I starve to death. He Ding closed his eyes and shook his head, tilting his head to the side to prevent himself from seeing the corpse.
"Gurgling ......"
"I don't eat if I starve to death!"
An hour later.
"Gurgling ......"
"This giant rat has eaten several pieces of my meat, it shouldn't be too much for me to eat a few pieces of it, right?" He Ding suddenly had a thought.
He Ding turned his head again, he looked at the corpse of the giant rat, the huge corpse was motionless, like a hairball, and recalled the scene of fighting with it in his mind. Although eating enemy meat occasionally happens when there is a shortage of food on the battlefield, it is still psychologically unacceptable for him to have to mouth at the corpse of a rat at this time.
