Qin Shu felt a little guilty, but soon she thought that her spiritual energy could absorb the evil energy, and maybe it could also clear the evil energy from the snake's inner elixir.
No matter what happens... doesn't she still have the Qing Yuan Pill in her hand? Nowadays, there is not much demonic energy on the inner elixir of the snake. It is estimated that one Qingyuan elixir can clear it out.
However, if she wanted to use the demonic energy to practice again in the future, she would have to be extra cautious and use part of the purple spiritual energy to wrap the snake's inner elixir first.
While Qin Shu was planning, she tried to use her own purple spiritual energy to remove the evil energy from Xie Shiyuan's inner elixir. But when she looked inside her Dantian again, she made some subtle discoveries.
The golden-green inner alchemy was suspended in the center of her Dantian, and the smoky purple spiritual energy was like naughty waves, lapping at the surface of the inner alchemy one after another. If you look carefully at the inner elixir, you can still see faint lavender starlight on the surface of the inner elixir.
And that wisp of demonic energy was lingering around the inner alchemy, like a dark nebula, floating with the rotation of the inner alchemy.
An idea suddenly popped up in Qin Shu's mind. Although it was a bit whimsical, she still decided to try it.
She tried to control the demonic energy that had not yet been transformed into purple aura. At first, the demonic aura was unmoved. Qin Shu used her purple aura to pat the inner elixir over and throw it away with some frustration.
After venting his anger, he casually tried again.
"bass--"
Xie Shiyuan looked at the demonic energy in Qin Shu's hand and his pupils shrank.
"you……"
Why can she use magic? What is her origin?
Could it be that he also came from the demon world? But it doesn’t look like it? There really wasn't any trace of demonic energy on her body before, and her bone age was only about ten years old, and it didn't look like she had practiced San Gong again.
Qin Shu felt very satisfied as she watched the demonic energy on her fingertips change into various forms according to her thoughts.
After playing for a while, Qin Shu rolled her eyes and seemed to think of something again. She looked up at Xie Shiyuan and asked, "Orochi, can you also use the power of your inner elixir?"
Xie Shiyuan nodded slightly. If she was within ten feet of him, he could indeed mobilize the power of the inner elixir, and vice versa...
Wait, he suddenly understood what the child meant.
He raised his hand and looked at the demonic energy appearing in his hand with a very complicated expression.
This familiar yet unfamiliar feeling is truly wonderful.
He has not used magic energy for many years, but now this cluster of magic energy is completely different from before.
If the demonic energy in the past was like a ferocious wild wolf, the ball in his hand now is a loyal domestic dog.
Surprisingly... there was no backlash?
The demonic energy on his fingertips swayed like a small fish nimbly. Xie Shiyuan lowered his head and stared thoughtfully.
However, he knew very little about human family bloodlines, innate spiritual bodies, and innate Tao bodies, and he could not think of any clues.
If she can really tame the demonic energy, it will be completely different. Even if she goes to the demon world in the future, she will still be able to get along like a fish in water.
Xie Shiyuan retracted his thoughts, raised his eyes to look at the child in front of him, and solemnly warned her: "Remember not to use this trick in front of others in the future."
Qin Shu nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, it won't happen. I'm not stupid."
If anyone knew that she could use demonic energy, she might not be able to stop, no matter the righteous path or the demonic path.
"Aren't you stupid?" Xie Shiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone rarely containing a hint of ridicule.
Qin Shu heard this and looked at him in surprise.
The corners of Xie Shiyuan's lips curled up in an imperceptible arc, and he turned and walked down the mountain, "Follow me."
Qin Shu responded and hurriedly followed, not forgetting to seize the time to absorb a little more demonic energy.
She can't absorb too much, it will take time for her to transform the demonic energy.
They returned to the outside of Guo Chong's small bamboo house, but this time Guo Chong's fence door was closed and the room door was also tightly closed.
Qin Shu stood in the yard and called Guo Chong for a long time, but no one answered.
Qin Shu was very surprised, "Can't he leave here? Why isn't he here?"
Just then, a meow came from the house.
Xie Shiyuan's lazy voice came into Qin Shu's mind, "There is only one answer, he doesn't want to open the door for us."
Qin Shu agreed very much, and she shouted: "Uncle, the disciple is coming in!"
How could a mere fence gate stop her, Qin Shu?
She jumped directly over from the fence gate, landed gracefully in the yard, and excitedly dusted off the unnecessary dust on her hands.
Immediately after the door of the room opened, Daji rushed out first and threw himself into Qin Shu's arms. Then Guo Chong's figure also appeared at the door.
"It's annoying, it's so annoying. The door is closed, can't you see that you are not welcome here?" Guo Chong was a little angry.
Qin Shu chuckled, "We know that, uncle, you are a sharp-tongued person. If you really didn't want us to come in, you would have opened the restriction long ago."
Guo Chong: "..."
Do you think he doesn't want to drive? Now he can't even bring out a drop of demonic energy.
He was directly laughed out of Qin Shu's anger. He looked at the little girl standing in the courtyard holding his own family, and scolded: "Qin Shu, Qin Shu, you little girl, you really are a mother if you have breasts. When you ask for help, "Master's brother, Master's brother, I call him more affectionately than anyone else, but he dared to call me by his first name afterwards!"
Seeing that he was trying to settle old scores with her, Qin Shu quickly changed the subject and asked, "Uncle Master, what's wrong with you? You're so good, why don't you let us in?"
A red light flashed in Guo Chong's eyes, and he asked through gritted teeth: "You really don't know?"
Qin Shu shook her head, looking confused.
Guo Chong asked again: "What good things have you done in the back mountain?"
Qin Shu suddenly realized this, and quickly stood at attention, and answered honestly: "Since you know everything, you should also know that this matter has nothing to do with me?"
"Stop! You two are just like a nest of snakes and rats!" Guo Chong was so angry that he put his hands behind his back and walked back and forth on the steps outside the house. He did look a bit older than before.
Qin Shu raised her chest and raised her head, defending herself: "Uncle, he is a snake, but I am not a rat."
The next moment, the little black snake lying on Qin Shu's shoulder opened his eyes and glanced at Guo Chong, who immediately stopped talking.
The scene was quiet for a long time, and Qin Shu tried to comfort him: "Uncle, please don't be angry."
Her words made Guo Chong explode again. He said, "How can I not be angry? Isn't it clear that you are selling me out?"
Xie Shiyuan's lazy voice reached his ears, "You can't get out either way, so you have to do something."
Guo Chong didn't speak anymore. Qin Shu bent down and put the Daji in her hand on the ground, then stood up and said: "Uncle, I'll go and read a book nearby. If you need anything, just call me!"
Qin Shu left, but Xie Shiyuan stayed.
"Have you reached an agreement with them?" Xie Shiyuan asked bluntly.
Guo Chong shook his head, "How can I do that? Negotiating an agreement with them is like playing the piano to an ox. How come I haven't seen anyone trying to reason with a mad dog?"
"Then why did they tolerate you here for so many years?"
Guo Chong and his family know the past and the future, but they are not good at fighting.
He must have something to rely on to be able to live in a corner of the Beast Control Sect where evil spirits are rampant.
Xie Shiyuan already had some vague guesses in his mind, but he still wanted to hear the answer from Guo Chong himself.
"This place is a formation."
Guo Chong and Xie Shiyuan have been friends for thousands of years. The two of them were able to leave the devil world together because of their trust in each other.
There was originally a passage between the immortal and demon worlds, but after the war between immortals and demons tens of thousands of years ago, the passage between the two realms was sealed by the power of the immortal world.
Until 1,500 years ago, a crack appeared in the barrier between the immortal and demon worlds.
At that time, Xie Shiyuan had already reached the realm of the Demon Lord, but because the Demon Realm was sealed, their ascension was blocked. If they stay in the demon world, even with their level of cultivation, sooner or later their minds will be swallowed up by the surging demonic energy.
Xie Shiyuan approached Guo Chong to help see what the future was like. Only then did Guo Chong know Xie Shiyuan's plan.
He still clearly remembers his original answer to Xie Shiyuan, "The Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and one of the human escapes is one."
God has the virtue of good life, even if what they have to do is as difficult as climbing to heaven, it still leaves them a glimmer of hope.
Xie Shiyuan's idea has been affecting him, and he went to investigate the seal left by the great master of the world of immortality again.
Finally, he found a way to crack it, and he made an agreement with Xie Shiyuan that the two of them would go to the world of immortality from different cracks.
If anyone can go forward alive, try to find a way to ascend.
What he didn't expect was that both of them successfully came to the world of immortality.
The only difference is that the crack through which Xie Shiyuan passed through the barrier of immortals and demons has been gradually growing every year, and countless demonic energy poured back into the world of immortality. Xie Shiyuan imitated the sealing formation here, which slightly stopped the pace of demonic erosion.
And he came to the world of immortality through the cracks of the Beast Control Sect. In order to fight against the inner demons, he suppressed the demonic energy in himself with the help of the eyes of the Beast Control Sect's protective formation.
His small bamboo house is where the formation eye is. How can the monsters who followed him and fled here dare to approach here?
With his own cultivation level, he was suppressed to the point where he couldn't even move a trace of demonic energy, let alone them.
Xie Shiyuan laughed directly after hearing Guo Chong's words, "Aren't you just killing a thousand enemies and damaging yourself eight hundred?"
Guo Chong gave a helpless smile, spread his hands, and said, "I don't want to either, but isn't there nothing we can do?"
Xie Shiyuan looked at Guo Chong's bright black pupils and said seriously: "You have to think clearly, we are here to ascend. If you keep lingering here, even if you have a long life, you will eventually die. One day. It cannot be destroyed or established. You are a fairy beast, and that demonic energy should not be used by you."
Guo Chong's heart was extremely complicated at this time. He did not speak and could not speak.
Xie Shiyuan just reminded him and didn't ask for his answer, so he said: "Think about it yourself."
It is painful to make a choice. With their cultivation level, they are only one step away from ascension, but they have to exhaust their cultivation and start over from the Qi training period, which means that all the hard work they have put in over the years will be in vain.
Guo Chong sat cross-legged on the futon, the oil lamp in front of him lighting up all night.
Qin Shu also sat cross-legged outside all night. She originally wanted to study how the demonic energy turned into purple energy after being absorbed by her. So can it be converted from purple energy to demonic energy?
However, as soon as she tried it, she noticed something strange about this small bamboo house.
The remaining demonic energy in her body adhered to Xie Shiyuan's inner elixir, allowing her purple energy to swallow and bully her at will without any reaction.
"Oh, I almost forgot, there is a formation here."
This formation is quite powerful, no wonder Guo Chong said he couldn't get out of here.
The moon gradually rose, and Qin Shu no longer wasted time and entered meditation again.
Just when Qin Shu was practicing seriously, she suddenly felt the unknown elements around her increase dramatically.
Xie Shiyuan, who was lying on Qin Shu's shoulder with his eyes closed to rest, now opened his eyes and glanced at the small bamboo house.
Looking at Qin Shu again, his whole snake's expression suddenly became complicated.
At this moment, Qin Shu was surrounded by a cloud of gray gas. She was like the dry land on a rainy day, frantically absorbing energy from the outside world.
At this time, the speed of her spiritual energy had increased to its fastest speed, and there was a faint pain in her meridians.
If Qin Shu had not refined her meridians before, she would never have been able to withstand this speed of absorbing spiritual energy.
One night passed, and the door of the small bamboo house opened.
Qin Shu, who was practicing, also opened her eyes. Her eyes were like lightning, and her whole body felt refreshed after a breakthrough.
Qin Shu stretched out, waved to Guo Chong who came out with a smile, and said hello, "Good morning, uncle!"
Guo Chong nodded to her indifferently, his expression seemed a bit disillusioned with the world of mortals.
Qin Shu felt a little strange. There was something wrong with Guo Chong today. Compared to before, he seemed more like an ordinary person today.
She raised her hand and scratched her hair, that's all. Anyway, it's common for big guys to return to their original nature, so she shouldn't interfere.
She checked her cultivation level and was immediately shocked.
The whole person jumped up happily, "I made a breakthrough! I made a breakthrough!"
The Qi training period is complete! Yesterday she was at the ninth level of Qi training, and her speed was comparable to that of riding a rocket.
This is too abnormal! Although she had always wanted to improve her cultivation level faster, she also knew that it was not necessarily a good thing to improve her cultivation level too quickly.
She vaguely remembered that last night, she seemed to feel a strange energy. It was a large and overwhelming energy. She tried hard to absorb it, and she didn't absorb a little bit until dawn.
What she didn't expect was that just this little bit of energy would actually send her to the Great Perfection of her Qi training period!
Guo Chong looked at the excited Qin Shu and his face gradually turned dark.
Xie Shiyuan also knew what happened. Looking at the deflated Guo Chong, he felt a little funny.
However, he could think about it, and he was still happy for him.
Their divine beasts fell into the demon world, and if they wanted to escape, they had to use demonic energy to practice. But once they left the demonic world, the demonic energy was like gangrene attached to the bones, which was very detrimental to their cultivation.
Qin Shu ran from the small yard to the bamboo forest, practiced a set of boxing techniques, and felt the surging power in her body. It was so happy!
Guo Chong stood on the steps from a distance, watching Qin Shu boxing, not to mention how envious he was.
His current level of cultivation is not even comparable to that of this child...
Just when he was feeling sad, Xie Shiyuan's figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
He looked puzzled, then saw Xie Shiyuan raise his hand and throw a futon with a small spirit gathering array towards him, "Take it for practice."
Guo Chong: "..."
Forget it, he has a long life and outstanding talent, and he will always practice again.
Xie Shiyuan continued: "When you switch to spiritual energy and start practicing, the inheritance in your body will slowly be unraveled."
Sometimes, it’s not necessarily a bad thing to stop practicing again.
