In the end, Wu Gen still did not agree to replace Wu Yong. In fact, overlooking all living beings in the spiritual abode and traveling through the world, feeling like a god, does give people an illusory sense of satisfaction. Not to mention refining one's heart in the world of mortals, having seen the experience and cultivation of these more than 80,000 devotees is an unparalleled wealth.
As for why there are only more than 80,000 people, Wu Gen also asked Wu Yong. It turns out that the maximum number of devotees a spiritual residence can accommodate cannot exceed one hundred thousand.
If it exceeds this limit, as the saying goes, the sun will move when it is at its midpoint, and the moon will be waning when it is full. If the spirit is in the middle, some evil spirits will be born to enslave or devour the devotee. Therefore, the devotees usually do not include devotees who are close to the limit in a spiritual home, lest they become self-defeating.
Despite all the temptations, Wu Gen gave up when he thought of staying here for countless years. He had promised Zhu Qianhua that he would return to the Kingdom of Zhao. Even if you have a heaven-reaching cultivation level, it would be a pity to miss the beauty and miss her for the rest of your life.
Wu Yong did not insist, but just suggested to Wu Gen that if things were going wrong in the world, he might as well visit Fuyu Mountain.
In the spiritual residence, Wu Gen met several Beizhou people from Yushi Mountain. They had long since taken off their physical bodies, and their spirits resided here. Everyone was a little happy to see the people from their hometown. They asked about some anecdotes about Beizhou, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, they drank and chatted by the lake.
I know that these wine and meat dishes are not real, but they are extremely delicious when eaten in my mouth. It seems that what really needs these enjoyments is not the physical body, but the ethereal and invisible soul. No wonder there is such a saying among the people.
Not mentioning Wu Genling's visit to the residence, the five people outside saw that he had not returned for a long time, so Shui Congyue went out to look for Wu Yi. After staying there for a long time, Wu Yi didn't keep a close eye on a few people. Under the leadership of Xue Tong, Shui Congyue came to the canyon.
From a distance, he saw Wu Gen sitting cross-legged in front of the spiritual residence, but Wu Yi just stood blankly on one side. ..
After walking a few steps, Shui Congyue saluted Wu Yi, "Miss Wu, Shui is polite."
Wu Yi was in a trance and glanced at Shui Congyue with some confusion, "Yeah, but something happened." She could be described as lukewarm towards this noble man from another continent.
Shui Congyue was a little embarrassed, "Witch girl, Shui has something to ask of me, but I don't know if I can grant it. I was taken care of a few days ago, and I went into the illusion to fight a few times, and I got a lot of money. I heard that those who have returned to the truth have the means to turn illusion into reality, I wonder if it is possible to imagine the opponents in the fantasy world in the real world, and compete with each other, which will make Yu Shui's practice very contemptuous."
Seeing Wu Yi's cold face, Shui Congyue quickly added, "I know this request is a bit excessive. If it makes it difficult for the girl, forget it. If it can be done, if something happens to the deceased one day, Shui will definitely give him his full help."
This kind of thing is what Shui Congyue said. No ordinary person would believe such an empty promise. But those who are familiar with Shui Congyue know that this person attaches great importance to loyalty and will never break his promise to others. Being able to make Shui Congyue make such a promise shows that this opportunity is quite rare for him.
Wu Yi looked confused and waited for a long time before saying one word, "Oh."
Shui Congyue couldn't help but be overjoyed, "The girl agreed."
Wu Yi looked back at Wu Gen, who was sitting on the ground, with a complicated expression on his face, "You and Wu Gen have a very good relationship, so it's not impossible to do this. It's just that it takes a lot of effort to visualize real objects other than those who have returned to their true form."
"Girl, please tell me directly, what are the requirements for this move? As long as Shui can do it, I will do my best." Seeing the other party's hesitation, Shui Congyue hurriedly asked.
"Oh, it's not that difficult. I just need to take a drop of your essence and blood. I only have one thing to entrust you to me. Wu Gen and I have already signed a contract. His abilities are low, and if he falls to me, he will be in trouble. I hope you can If you can take more care of him, don't let anyone kill you." Wu Yi looked at Wu Gen and sighed quietly.
Shui Congyue was silent for a moment, but she didn't expect Wu Yi to make such a request. After a moment, Fang Zheng said: "Girl, please don't worry, Wu Gen is my brother. As long as Shui is alive, I will protect him."
Wu Yi nodded and signaled Shui Congyue to send out the blood essence.
Shui took out a short blade from Yue and stabbed the middle finger of his left hand, secretly using his energy. A drop of bright red blood appeared on his fingertip, which shone brightly against the blue light of the surrounding ice wall.
This drop of blood is water gathered from the moon essence. With a little touch, you can feel the vitality contained in it. Wu Yi nodded, and the blood drops left the water and floated in the air from Yue's fingertips. Wu Yi closed his eyes slightly, and a strong wind suddenly rose in the canyon, making his long hair fly.
When he opened his eyes again, they were no longer as calm as before. They were radiant with light, and there was a faint spiral vortex spinning in them. "Now." With a low cry, a wisp of flame flew out from the spiritual residence, wrapping the blood droplets hanging in the air in it.
With a bang, the flames suddenly exploded, and a human figure began to appear in the flames. Gradually, the human form began to solidify, and another water appeared from the moon. Two handsome men stood on the spot, both with powdered faces, red lips and white teeth, and arrogant and aloof expressions.
Wu Yi withdrew his magic power and pointed boredly outside the valley, "If you want to fight, go outside the valley." After saying that, he turned to look at Wu Gen, as if everything just now had nothing to do with him.
"Thank you so much, Miss Wu." Shui Congyue bowed to Wu Yi's back, but when he stood up, he was a little worried, not knowing how to let his transformed self go outside. Unexpectedly, the other party snorted coldly, "Peeping child, you are so brave that you dare to call me out as a whetstone. I am careful but my cleverness will be mistaken for me. Let's go, I will kill you like a chicken."
Shui Congyue smiled coldly, "Your Majesty, you are too trusting, please."
"For Wu Gen's sake, I'll fight with you. But I never hold back when I strike. Please think clearly and don't bring shame on yourself." The other Shui Congyue looked arrogant and took the lead in taking the lead. , completely ignoring the opponent.
Shui Congyue gritted his teeth. This person's behavior was almost the same as his own in the past. Suddenly, he found that his previous self was quite annoying.
The two of them exited the canyon and walked along the mountain road, finally finding a relatively flat slope to stop.
"Just stay here. Although you are my true self, don't expect me to be merciful. If you lose, just stay here and let me travel around on your behalf." The transformed water held Yue's hands behind his back and lowered his chin. He raised his head slightly and stared at the water in front of him.
Shui Congyue moved his wrists, not angry but happy, and said in a ferocious voice: "But, I'm afraid you don't have this blessing. Although you are familiar with all my methods and have the same body, when fighting, can we only judge by means? .
I, Shui Congyue, have been practicing martial arts for many years. Although my cultivation level is not high, I still win more than I lose. The reason is not the means, but the courage to fight without fear of death. Today, with you as the whetstone, I can review my martial arts achievements over the years and lay a solid foundation for entering the Five Realms. "
"It's no use talking more, let's fight." Shui Congyue, who was on the opposite side, became a little impatient, stretched out his right hand, and a large halberd slowly took shape in his hand. With a twist of his waist, he made a semicircle with the big halberd in his hand, and his body rose into the air.
"Fight." Shui Congyue also jumped up and dragged the halberd forward.
On the hillside, two black bolts of lightning collided head-on. A huge noise came and resounded throughout the mountains. The snow and fog that has been entrenched in the mountains all year round seemed to be stagnant for a moment. The soft snow on the top of the mountain fell, like the sound of waves.
Under the spiritual residence, Wu Yi was slightly startled when he heard the movement. His eyes looked through the ice wall and snow-capped mountains towards the direction where the two were fighting, thoughtfully.
In the spiritual center, Wu Gen, Wu Yong and a few old people from Beizhou finally finished their banquet. After a few people left, Wu Yong sat under the willow tree by the lake. He looked at Wu Liang, who was sitting on the ground and looking around, like an old fox looking at a chicken. He smiled and asked: "Wu Gen, since you don't want to replace me here." , then I’ll leave it to you to kill the evil spirits.”
"Haha." Wu Gen was noncommittal and stretched his legs comfortably, "Old witch, we have been drinking together, so I won't call you venerable. I speak more straightforwardly, so don't take it off. ah."
"No wonder, no wonder, tell me quickly." Wu Yong didn't know that the other party was about to cause trouble.
"Don't even think about it. You can't do anything to the other party. With my level of cultivation, I'm not qualified to give someone a bite. Besides, why do you need me to help you eradicate the evil spirits that you created in your own spiritual abode? Although We are already acquaintances, but if we are given life-threatening jobs as soon as we get started, what good will it do to me? Isn’t it a bit like not being friends enough?" Wu Gen sneered again and again, squinting at this venerable man who could be said to be a man of words in the spiritual residence. .
Wu Yong also laughed, and an old chrysanthemum bloomed on his face, "Outlanders are really scoundrels. What do you think the fish in the lake and the wine in the cup are? Isn't the soul's power greatly increased? If it weren't for the lack of opportunities, , it’s impossible to say that your soul has re-transformed at this time.”
A look of surprise appeared on Wu Gen's face, "Yes, my soul power has really increased greatly. Could it be that God has a good heart and just took pity on me to help."
"It's easy to be a good boy. When I fought with the evil spirits, I had low abilities, but I was able to defeat them. Over the years, even if his abilities have improved a bit, how can he improve without the help of spiritual beings? . This matter belongs to you, no more excuses." Wu Yong was angered by Wu Gen's scoundrel look, and the long beard on his chest couldn't help trembling.
Wu Gen said with a grimace: "Even so, the boy still feels a little untrustworthy. It is better to give him some more means to take down the evil spirit in one fell swoop and save him from escaping again."
Wu Yong looked disdainful, "You're talking about Yi Ling Qu, right?"
Wu Gen nodded quickly, "If I can teach you the Yi Ling Song, I will definitely have a lot more confidence."
"hehe......"
"Ha ha......"
"Go away, what a beautiful idea." Wu Yong was furious, waving his big sleeves, and suddenly a strong wind blew up by the lake. Wu Gen was blown over several somersaults, and flew towards the distance, looking at the distance getting closer and closer to him. Wu Yong, who was far away, shouted: "Old Wu, we have something to discuss. Let's talk about it later..."
Under the spiritual residence, Wu Gen's eyelids trembled rapidly, as if he was about to wake up. Wu Yi took one look, let out a long sigh, and was kicked out just like that, which showed that he had offended the venerable man severely.
As soon as he opened his eyes and saw Wu Yi, Wu Gen couldn't help complaining, "That lord of your family is too stingy, and he is not kind. He doesn't give any means to kill evil spirits, and that... You don’t tell me what the evil spirit looks like or where it is, so I can find it.”
"Evil spirits are ever-changing, so how can they have an appearance? You don't have to look for them in the future. If you encounter them, Qian Nian will warn you and protect you if you are in danger." Wu Yi replied calmly.
Wu Gen glanced at the empty left wrist in confusion, then raised his head to look at Wu Yi.
Wu Yi stood up and walked out of the canyon, "Qian Nian has entered your soul space, so I won't see you. I will teach you a magic formula. If you want Qian Nian to appear, just visualize it while reciting the formula."
Wu Gen quickly stood up and followed him, feeling a little uneasy when he thought about the meaning of concern between Wu Yong and himself. I have received such great benefits from Wu Yi for nothing, so what should I do? "Miss Wu, this care is very precious. What do you do if you put it on me? Why don't you accept it..."
As soon as he said this, Wu Gen quickly shut up, because Wu Yi had already turned his head, with murderous intent in his eyes, and stabbed his forehead with a finger.
