Finally taking another step, Qin Shu stopped and took a breath.
She looked up at the top of the mountain. It was clearly close at hand, but it seemed extremely far away.
The originally black iron chain was now so close that you could see the dazzling golden light on it.
She couldn't see any material, she just felt it was extremely dazzling. Just looking at it, she felt that her eyeballs were extremely painful.
She quickly looked away and said to Xie Shiyuan, who was walking beside her without any reaction, "I'll give you the sword, can't you go and chop it yourself?"
It's not that she doesn't want to speak, it's just that under the pressure of gravity, every movement of her vocal cords makes a big noise.
Xie Shiyuan shook his head gently, "If I could, I wouldn't watch you suffer like this."
Qin Shu just sighed when she heard Xie Shiyuan continue to say: "Now the Zixiao White Jade Sword has recognized you as its master. If it were in the upper world, I might be able to give it a try, but in the world of immortality, only you can use its power beyond the level." .”
After hearing this, Qin Shu's body surged with spiritual energy, repairing the cells destroyed by gravity.
"That's all, who else could it be than me? It's only a hundred steps, but I'll get there eventually!"
Qin Shu cheered herself up and took another step.
However, at this step, blood suddenly flowed out of Qin Shu's seven orifices, which looked particularly strange compared to the confident look on her face.
Qin Shu also noticed it and wanted to raise her hand to wipe it away, but it was extremely difficult to even raise her hand.
Seeing this, Xie Shiyuan quickly hugged her and took two steps back. He raised his hand to wipe the blood on her face, frowned and said: "Shu'er, this chain has been there for tens of thousands of years, there is no rush for this moment." . Let’s go back first and come back in a few years when your cultivation level is higher, okay?”
Qin Shu wanted to shake her head, but felt that it was a waste of energy, so she maintained her current state and said to him: "Orochi, you know, right? This level of gravity is not at the limit of what I can bear. If it were you, would you go Still not going?”
Xie Shiyuan's lips pursed into a straight line, but he did not speak.
Qin Shu knew very well in her heart that if it were him, he would crawl over even if he only had his last breath left.
She twitched her lips, feeling too tired, so she gave up.
He sat cross-legged and regained some of his strength with the help of these demonic energies.
The more she absorbs the demonic energy, the more she discovers——
The origin of heaven and earth.
Whether it is spiritual energy or demonic energy, they are essentially the same thing, but absorbing demonic energy will bring some negative effects, which will have a great impact on both the human race and the demon race.
She couldn't figure it out, but luckily there was a living history book sitting next to her.
Qin Shu directly sent a message and asked: "Big snake, spiritual energy and demonic energy... are there some connection?"
Xie Shiyuan was originally thinking about how to persuade her to go down the mountain, but he overestimated himself and couldn't do anything to see her get hurt.
But when she suddenly said this, Xie Shiyuan was slightly startled.
It took him a moment to find his voice.
"When the heaven and earth first opened, the origin of the heaven and earth also changed accordingly. The light part rose up and turned into immortal energy, while the dirty part sank into demonic energy. As for the spiritual energy..."
Qin Shu suddenly realized, "I understand! Is spiritual energy better than demonic energy, but worse than fairy energy?"
Qin Shu thought she had discovered the truth, but she didn't expect it. Xie Shiyuan actually shook his head, "That's not the case."
Qin Shu frowned slightly, "Huh? What is that?"
Xie Shiyuan hesitated to speak, and finally coughed lightly, "It's the part that neither the immortal energy nor the demonic energy wants."
Qin Shu: "..."
So, she suddenly understood why the demonic energy she absorbed could be directly converted into purple spiritual energy, but the spiritual energy could not.
It turns out that’s the case! The despised demonic energy turns out to be an existence closer to the origin of heaven and earth than spiritual energy!
In this case, does the devil world seem to be her comfort zone?
Then there is no need for her to compete with other monks in this world for the remaining spiritual energy. Next time she breaks through, wouldn't she just go to a place with strong demonic energy?
As soon as Qin Shu's idea came up, Xie Shiyuan seemed to notice it and quickly interrupted her crazy idea.
"It's a great blessing that you can directly absorb demonic energy. Don't mess around. If the demonic energy is really so easy to absorb, Guo Chong and I will not lose our cultivation."
Qin Shu seemed to have been given a slap in the face, and her whole mind suddenly sobered up.
Something was wrong. With her always steady temperament, she would naturally not think of going to the devil world rashly.
So... was she actually being affected by the demonic energy unknowingly?
Xie Shiyuan sat down next to her and said softly: "No matter how close it is to the source, it is still dirty. It can be used, but it must be used wisely."
Qin Shu seemed to feel something, nodded slowly, and began to restore herself with concentration.
In the process of climbing the mountain, her spiritual energy was depleted, but in fact, it was more physical strength that was consumed.
She took a pill and calmed down to regain her strength.
It wasn't until her strength was almost restored that she opened her eyes again.
Almost as soon as Qin Shu opened her eyes, Xie Shiyuan looked over.
"Are you feeling better?" Xie Shiyuan asked.
Qin Shu nodded in response. Just when Xie Shiyuan was about to speak, she said first, "Orochi, actually... you don't have to stay with me all the time."
As soon as she said this, Xie Shiyuan frowned, "You suffered this crime because of me..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Shu.
"No, you and I are both practitioners. You know better than anyone else that as long as I can climb up, I will have another breakthrough in my physical training realm. This is a good thing."
This date was also Orochi's original intention at the beginning. He actually wanted to help her break through, but when it came to practice, he couldn't stand it anymore.
Xie Shiyuan pursed his lips and did not speak.
Qin Shu went on to say: "There is no one who does not endure hardship in cultivation, not to mention that I am still a physical practitioner. Such suffering is nothing to me."
Back then, in the little secret realm of the two ancestors, she fell to pieces and broke into pieces countless times.
Now it's just bleeding from the seven orifices, it's really nothing.
Xie Shiyuan knew in his heart that she was right, but he remained silent.
After a long time, he sighed, "In that case, I will go down the mountain first."
A true Taoist couple should grow together, and he cannot stay here to be a stumbling block for her.
Xie Shiyuan stood up and used a cleaning technique with his hand, helping Qin Shu brush the dust off her body.
"Shu'er, walking to the iron chain is the first step. Splitting the iron chain under this level of gravity is the second step. You...don't be anxious, I can wait." Xie Shiyuan Before leaving, he warned her.
Qin Shu nodded in agreement. She also knew very well that it was extremely difficult to even speak here, let alone such physical work as wielding a sword...
