Seeing Zhou Wenyi take action in time to save Qian Ziling, everyone's tense mood relaxed.
At this moment, no matter how far away Qin Yunchuan and others were, they could still see something strange about Mu Jingyu.
Su Yingying said uneasily, "Sister Zhou, what happened to Jingyu?"
Zhou Yan frowned, shook his head slightly and said, "It's too far away, so I can't tell! However, judging from his behavior just now, it seems that he is haunted by inner demons."
Zhou Yan once heard his aunt Zhou Rong mention that once they, as cultivators, fight against others or meditate, they will develop greed, ignorance, etc. due to weak minds or eagerness to win. Resentment, hatred, gambling and other thoughts. And these emotions that affect the state of mind can lead to the loss of the peaceful mentality that monks always advocate, and thus become violent and angry. This situation is generally called inner demons.
Qin Yunchuan didn't know when he came to the three of them. When he heard Zhou Yan mention the word inner demon, he said doubtfully, "That's not right. Senior Brother Qian secretly helped Jingyu pass the test of Jiuhua Swordsmanship. This is what everyone wants." It's something that can be seen. According to common sense, Jingyu can pass the test as long as he lasts three or five more moves. There is no reason to have the desire to win and trigger the inner demons."
Shen Mengdie said, "But Brother Mu's current state is clearly a demon in his heart! Could it be that something happened just now?"
Zhou Yan said worriedly, "No matter what the reason is for the inner demons, Jingyu is not in a good mood! Look at the head master and the other leaders, they are..."
Zhou Yan didn't finish his words, but the others understood the meaning. Jiuhua Mountain is a famous sect, but the most taboo thing is that its disciples cannot be united and can be easily swayed by these unwarranted emotions, thus inducing the emergence of inner demons.
Although as a cultivator, this situation will inevitably happen. But Mu Jingyu was not liked by everyone, and now his inner demons were easily triggered. Wouldn't it make them even more bored?
If Master Tianyang determines that Mu Jingyu is a person with a weak character, coupled with his already unbearable qualifications. Maybe they would immediately stop the current assessment and declare that Mu Jingyu could not pass.
Different from the worries of the others, Su Yingying's uneasy mood suddenly enveloped her entire mood. He turned around and glanced at Han Yao and others not far away, and saw that they were looking at Mu Jingyu with normal expressions. However, Su Yingying still saw a trace of resentment in Han Yao's eyes.
Thinking back to Han Yao's previous threats, I suddenly understood that Han Yao's words were really not just talk. Presumably at that time, Mu Jingyu had already been secretly poisoned, but they didn't realize it for a while.
Su Yingying thought about it carefully, hoping to find out the problem and help Mu Jingyu recover from his inner demons. But after pondering for a long time, he still couldn't figure out how Han Yao and the others had done this.
Qin Yunchuan obviously also knew that the situation at this moment was extremely unfavorable to Mu Jingyu. He wanted to jump onto the ring and rescue Mu Jingyu from his inner demons, but due to the reasons of several top leaders, he did not take action easily.
"The most urgent thing now is to help Jingyu free himself from the inner demons. If the head master prevents his assessment, it will be too late!"
Like all of them, Zhou Wenyi's first thought after discovering something strange about Mu Jingyu was that he was haunted by inner demons. However, after seeing Mu Jingyu's terrifying face, he immediately realized something was wrong.
If it's just a simple inner demon, it's just a bad mood. There will not be such a terrifying face, nor a sudden surge in cultivation. And from Mu Jingyu's eyes, he saw streaks of blood and the squirming black energy.
"Is it possible that he was poisoned? Or was he secretly poisoned and controlled his mind?"
Before Zhou Wenyi had time to think about it, Mu Jingyu had already stabilized his retreating figure, roared, and charged forward again.
With a wave of his hand, he threw the long sword that was broken into two parts. The right hand that had lost the sword clenched into a fist and struck Zhou Wenyi in the face, as if he regarded him as his mortal enemy.
"Today, no one can stop me from rescuing Bi Yun!"
Mu Jingyu has been completely immersed in the illusion of three years ago. Feeling the powerful energy coming from his body, he felt that he was no longer the thin young man, and he wanted to use his own strength to rescue Bi Yun from the altar.
Zhou Wenyi had long known what happened in Wuji Ruins, so after Mu Jingyu said these words, he immediately understood that he had fallen into the illusion of that year.
Although I don’t know why Mu Jingyu suddenly acted like this. However, he still didn't want to make a heavy move rashly, lest he hurt Mu Jingyu.
With a slight stagger in his steps, he dodged to avoid the fist wind coming from the pavement. He stretched out his left hand, trying to control Mu Jingyu from behind.
Not only that, Mu Jingyu's move looked fierce, but it was actually just a feint. After seeing Zhou Wenyi get out of the way, he used the strength to rush out and flew out towards the ring.
Originally, everyone thought that if Zhou Wenyi took action, Mu Jingyu would be able to be controlled. Unexpectedly, Mu Jingyu fired a false shot and then rushed towards the leaders on the opposite side. Moreover, looking at the direction he rushed towards, it was exactly where Master Songyang was.
"Bi Yun, just hold on, I'll come to rescue you right away."
Just after Mu Jingyu flew off the ring, Zhou Wenyi also heard these words from his mouth. He looked up in the direction where Mu Jingyu rushed out, and happened to see the statue standing under the setting sun. It was immediately clear that Mu Jingyu mistook the statue of He Xiaozi for Bi Yun who was tied to the altar.
This arena was not far from Master Tianyang and the other leaders, and Mu Jingyu's cultivation level had greatly increased, so he rushed in front of the leaders in an instant.
Before Master Tianyang could say anything, more than a dozen inner disciples standing beside him wanted to stop him.
"Wait a minute, let me restrain him with my own hands."
When Master Songyang saw Mu Jingyu rushing towards him, he immediately stopped the inner disciples who wanted to take action. He stood up from the stone chair and stared closely at Mu Jingyu who rushed towards him.
Not only Zhou Wenyi heard Mu Jingyu's words on the ring, but Master Songyang and other leaders also heard them clearly. Naturally, a few people knew that Mu Jingyu was in the illusion of his inner demon at the moment.
A feeling of hatred suddenly rose in Master Songyang's heart. Three years ago, he failed to stop Mu Jingyu from secretly climbing onto the ring to rescue Bi Yun, which resulted in irreversible consequences. He had long resented Mu Jingyu.
Now seeing that he is actually in the midst of inner demons, he is still determined to save Bi Yun, but his resentment is aroused again.
Before Mu Jingyu could get closer, he had already flown away from the stone chair. The seemingly dry palm contained deep spiritual energy, and he grabbed Mu Jingyu's head.
Master Yunyang seemed to be really angry when he saw him. He suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, "Junior Brother Songyang, after all, this Mu Jingyu was entrusted to me by Mo Yunshen in Jiuhua Mountain before his death. You must not be afraid of him for a moment." If you fall into the inner demon, you will kill me!"
Master Songyang already had a lot of resentment towards Mu Jingyu. If Master Yunyang didn't bring up Mo Yunshen to retaliate, he would at most be more aggressive and take the opportunity to teach Mu Jingyu a lesson.
Now, hearing these three words Mo Yunshen really aroused the hatred in my heart. At that time, he wanted to kill Mu Jingyu with one blow. Just when he was about to press his head, he suppressed the anger in his heart and withdrew some strength.
Even though Mu Jingyu's castration looked extremely powerful, in the eyes of Master Songyang, he looked as weak and weak as a three-year-old child. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make any progress in his palm.
"Go!"
With a wave of Master Songyang's palm, Mu Jingyu suddenly flew backwards and rolled several times on the ground before he came to a halt. Although he just waved his hand casually, he secretly increased his strength. As soon as Mu Jingyu landed on the ground, he was knocked unconscious by the shock.
An old figure rushed over from the stone chair, held his head with one hand, and pinched his cheek with the other. First, he carefully checked Mu Jingyu's eyes and let out a soft sigh. Then he quickly took out a pill from his arms and hit Mu Jingyu's chest hard, causing him to groan in pain and take the opportunity. Putting the pill into his mouth. With a click, the pill melts in your mouth.
Mu Jingyu's originally fiery body began to slowly return to normal after taking the pill. The limbs that were constantly struggling gradually calmed down.
Master Tianyang saw that Mu Jingyu was slowly calming down from his inner demons, and asked the old figure loudly, "Junior brother Ling Yang, how is Mu Jingyu!"
That old figure is none other than Master Ling Yang, who has the most advanced Chinese medicine skills in Jiuhua Mountain. When Mu Jingyu rushed over, he discovered his inner demon. Then the elixir was prepared in time and Mu Jingyu took it.
"After taking the exorcism pill I prepared, there should be no serious problems. It is estimated that after a while, you will be able to completely escape from the illusion of the inner demon."
Master Ling Yang replied, and then asked doubtfully, "It's just that this kid was fine just now, so how could he suddenly have inner demons?" He thought in a low voice and put his hand on Mu Jingyu's wrist.
I felt that in Mu Jingyu's pulse that was gradually becoming steady, there was an aura of strong resentment. It seems that it was this aura full of resentment that caused Mu Jingyu to suddenly enter the inner demons and violently hurt others.
Zhou Wenyi followed to Master Ling Yang and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Ling Yang, have you noticed anything unusual?"
Zhou Wenyi didn't believe that Mu Jingyu would suddenly trigger his inner demons. After seeing Master Ling Yang's frown, he confirmed his suspicion.
Master Ling Yang did not answer Zhou Wenyi's words, but instead asked, "I heard that your master and Qingshan gave Mu Jingyu three pills a few days ago to help him improve his cultivation to the middle stage of concentration." Realm, so that I can pass the assessment of today’s inner disciples, is there such a thing?”
Zhou Wenyi's heart thumped, he raised his head and glanced at Master Yunyang who was looking here, and replied in a low voice, "Reporting to Uncle Senior, Master and Senior Brother Qingshan did give him three pills. But these three pills , all of them are used to help him improve his cultivation, but they have no separate purpose. Not to mention, it will make him suddenly have a demon attack!"
Zhou Wenyi immediately told Master Ling Yang the names, efficacy and other information of the three elixirs.
"Logically speaking, these three pills can indeed help him improve his cultivation level and will not cause any damage to him. However, Mu Jingyu's current situation makes it clear that he took something that caused him to suddenly It's because of inner demons."
Just when Master Lingyang lowered his head to think, Master Songyang had already fallen beside them. First, he glanced at the black veins on Mu Jingyu's face that had not completely receded, and then snorted coldly.
"Senior brother, Mu Jingyu didn't suffer from inner demons because of taking pills. It seems to me that he secretly swallowed some magic pills in an attempt to raise his cultivation level to several realms, so that he could He excelled in the assessment. It was just that he failed to control it for a while, which suddenly triggered his inner demons."
The term "demon elixir and magic pill" is a name used by the righteous parties for the elixirs refined by evil sects. In this vast land of Kyushu, there are not only techniques to improve your cultivation through practicing various evil ways. There are also some monks who make alchemy and medicine, and find other ways to collect some herbs with unique medicinal properties to refine some elixirs that can quickly improve their cultivation.
However, although these pills can quickly improve one's cultivation level. But after taking it, many unpredictable consequences will occur. At least it can disfigure a person's appearance, but at worst, it can mess up his mind and make him have evil thoughts, turning him into a monster who only knows how to kill.
This is strictly prohibited among the righteous sects. Therefore, members of various sects will definitely not take it. Only the spirits from the Demon Underworld Palace would take these elixirs in order to quickly improve their cultivation.
