Cao Yan couldn't help but reveal a wry smile after thinking deeply.
He looked around at the hell scene, shook his head slightly and said: "Choice? Have I ever owned such a luxurious thing? If I had a choice, I wouldn't be such an ugly face! If I had a choice, I wouldn't be here Under the command of King Shengwu! If I had the choice, I would not risk my life to explore the underworld. If I had the choice, I would not be here at all."
"And now, do I have a choice? Can I leave here?"
…
Lin Beichen walked out of hell, silently thinking in his heart whether he had convinced Cao Yan.
He also knew very well that there were many flaws in his words, and there was nothing he could do about it. He knew too little to make up a flawless story.
But those flaws are not important. As Dao Yilang said, as long as Cao Yan believes in his identity as a Yangjiang secret guard, then it doesn't matter if there are more flaws.
Through this period of practice, Lin Beichen's translucent skin and flesh have become more and more solid, and his silk-like tendons have become much thicker.
At the same time, he absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy and began to practice like a normal person.
At the same time, Lin Beichen was also curious about what kind of rewards the system would give him after he became a complete person.
In the past, the rewards he received were basically based on various rewards from ghosts and immortals, such as fragments of statues, which were treasures based on the statues of ghosts and immortals without physical bodies.
Of course, a person can also have a statue of a god, but most monks will not set up a statue of a god for themselves, and many monks do not need the power of faith.
In addition, statues of gods require distraction to create, and there is a divine soul left in each statue of gods. As a ghost immortal, there is no way to use this to practice.
As a monk, separating your soul is no less than putting your own control outside your body. You may be controlled by others at any time and fall into passivity.
Therefore, Lin Beichen's next path of spiritual practice may not be based on statues of gods.
…
The moment Lin Beichen walked out of hell, the transparent figure that had been wandering outside Xu Qingqing's palace suddenly looked into the distance.
A hint of surprise flashed in his white eyes: "So you are here!"
Then the transparent figure walked quickly on the ground and went straight to the hut outside the city where Lin Beichen lived. 33
At this moment, Xu Qingqing also felt Lin Beichen's aura appearing in the hut. She had not seen Lin Beichen for more than ten days, so naturally she wanted to pay attention to Lin Beichen's progress in cultivation, and immediately walked out of the palace slowly, stepping on the void. Go to Lin Beichen's hut.
Lin Beichen was calculating the gains from his practice during this period, when Lao Huang's voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "The master is in retreat, please wait a few days before coming back."
Lin Beichen frowned slightly and remained silent, quietly listening to what was going on outside.
Xu Qingqing's voice sounded: "I haven't seen Lin Beichen for more than ten days. I want to see how his cultivation is progressing. There are already thirty or forty villains prepared for him in the prison. I The prison is too small to fit in."
Xu Qingqing's voice sounded from far away, and she was obviously not blocked by Old Huang, and she was approaching the room.
Lin Beichen sighed slightly. He knew very well that Xu Qingqing could not let him practice peacefully without showing up. Being able to hide for more than ten days was probably the limit.
Lin Beichen said: "Old Huang, I have been released. Let Elder Xu come in."
When Lao Huang heard this, he opened the door first and asked Xu Qingqing to enter the room.
Lin Beichen directly put Lao Huang into the Six-hole Ghost Soldier Talisman.
Xu Qingqing just stepped into the room, her eyes lit up instantly, she looked Lin Beichen up and down, unable to hide the surprise in her heart no matter what.
She even asked in disbelief: "You... have entered the realm of first-class ghosts and immortals?"
Lin Beichen knew that as long as Xu Qingqing saw him, there would be no way to hide his cultivation, so he simply admitted generously: "Yes, during this period of retreat, I have just achieved the first-class ghost and immortal realm. If you give me another period of time, it will be three or five at most." A month, or at least a month or two, maybe I will achieve the realm of immortality."
Lin Beichen said this because he hoped that Xu Qingqing would give him some more time. Even if it takes more than ten days, it would be good for Lin Beichen. The more prepared he is, the greater the chance of getting out of this small world alive.
Xu Qingqing said pleasantly: "Very good, very good, but the speed of your practice is too fast, which always makes me feel unsteady."
As he spoke, Xu Qingqing even walked up to Lin Beichen and reached out to touch Lin Beichen's cheek.
Lin Beichen quickly stepped back and distanced himself, staring into Xu Qingqing's eyes. At this moment, Xu Qingqing's eyes were full of obsession, as if he were looking at an exquisite doll, and there was a hint of perversion in his hot eyes.
This sent a chill down Lin Beichen's spine.
Xu Qingqing smiled and said: "You don't have to be so afraid of me. I just want to see how your body is growing."
Lin Beichen said calmly: "My physical body is still lacking a lot, it has not yet formed, and the skin and flesh are fragile and fragile. It is best not to touch it easily."
The smile on Xu Qingqing's face became more and more radiant, and there was even a hint of charm in her eyes: "You don't have to pretend to be stupid. I think you have already felt that something is wrong, and you even expected that I would have a showdown with you when you cultivate a complete body. ……,Yes or no?"
Lin Beichen knew that the critical moment had arrived, so naturally he could delay it as long as he could. As long as Xu Qingqing didn't show his cards, he would continue to act stupid. But now that Xu Qingqing took the initiative to show her cards, it meant that there was no room for change.
Lin Beichen simply stopped pretending: "Elder Xu, I'm really curious. Since you knew that I was not the reincarnation of Lin Nifeng, why did you say that I was the reincarnation of Lin Nifeng in public? You even taught me skills, gave me various resources, and helped Do I practice?"
Xu Qingqing slowly sat down at the long table, poured herself a cup of tea, and then motioned for Lin Beichen to sit down.
Lin Beichen saw that Xu Qingqing seemed to be starting from the beginning, and he also wanted to know the reason. In addition, the more Xu Qingqing talked about it, the better. Even if he couldn't escape in the end, at least he would be an understanding person.
Xu Qingqing seemed to be in a good mood, took a sip of tea, and then said: "You should know some things between me, Yan Huaizhen and Lin Nifeng."
Lin Beichen nodded and said: "I know a little bit about it, but I don't know whether it is true or false."
Xu Qingqing tapped the wooden cup lightly with her slender fingertips: "Those things spread in the sect are generally true. Lin Nifeng and I were childhood sweethearts, and we can be called childhood sweethearts. It's a pity that we didn't get together."
"And Yan Huaizhen is my Taoist companion. There is only transaction and no emotion between me and him. Originally, I wanted to live peacefully and practice in this way. There is no need to talk about being a husband and raising children. Instead, Yan Huaizhen and I each take what we need. Make progress together.”
"It's a pity that sometimes things don't go as I thought..."
Some people died, but not completely...
