Lin Ji noticed that the holy fire in Beishuang's hand suddenly became a little stronger at this time.
He had a feeling as if the holy fire had its own consciousness, and it seemed to be urging the two of them to go where the holy fire wanted to go.
There was no reason for this feeling, but Lin Ji did not dare to take it lightly.
But he didn't ask.
It was not like he had never asked questions about the Holy Fire on the way before, but Beishang turned a deaf ear to them and acted as if he hadn't heard them, let alone answered them.
So he didn't bother asking for trouble.
"What should I do?" Lin Ji asked.
"I see that you have used the power of the soul several times before. Will the soul of the Sun Travel Realm not be affected here?" Beishang asked.
"It also has an impact, but the Yuan Shen of the Sun Travel Realm has been perfected. You can understand that my Yuan Shen is another me and a living person."
Lin Ji didn't know how to explain it. It was only after he made a breakthrough that he understood the difference in soul between night travel and day travel.
Night travel is the initial awakening of the soul, while day travel is the completion of the soul.
"I don't understand, nor can I understand." Beishang shook his head.
"When you break through to Riyou, you will understand. This is an indescribable feeling."
Lin Ji waved his hand, as if trying to catch something in the air.
"After the Sun Travel Realm, what the Yuan Shen sees is another world, and the Yuan Shen is me living in another world." Lin Ji tried hard to explain, "What I see and what the Yuan Shen sees are combined. One, is the world in my eyes now, which is the so-called hope of a monk in the Sun Travel Realm."
The understanding of cultivation has always varied from person to person. Obviously, Lin Ji's frank words did not mean much to Beishuang.
Beishang sighed softly: "This kind of understanding is very precious for monks who are about to travel. Unfortunately, cultivation is like this. It is difficult to understand until you reach the state. Once you reach the state, it will come naturally, and understanding becomes a matter of course."
Beishang no longer mentioned this topic, but took Lin Ji forward.
Soon, Lin Ji felt that he had crossed an invisible barrier, but the scene in front of him did not change at all.
The only difference was that he saw the small stone that Beishang had just thrown over.
After crossing the barrier, Beishang stopped and looked at Lin Ji again.
"Do you feel anything?"
Lin Ji closed his eyes and spread the power of his soul around him. The air around him began to distort vaguely.
"Empty." Lin Ji said.
In Lin Ji's despair, everything around him seemed empty.
It's not that there is nothing, but it's as if the surroundings have been hollowed out by something, without aura or anything that should exist.
Even the fire poison and the pungent smell of sulfur that had filled the air before were gone.
"Is this how the holy fire burns, erasing everything?" Lin Ji opened his eyes and asked.
Beishang asked again: "Where is the emptiest place?"
"That." Lin Ji pointed to a place diagonally in front of the two of them, "It's as if it doesn't exist there."
Beishang nodded, his fingers trembled a few times, and the holy fire in his hand split into two.
She handed the weaker sacred fire to Lin Ji.
"Wrap it with the power of the soul."
Seeing the holy fire getting closer and closer to him, Lin Ji felt extremely dangerous in his heart.
He was a little hesitant, but the Six Paths of Buddhism allowed him to see into Beishuang's heart. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he also knew that Beishuang had no evil intentions.
Lin Ji did as he was told, and sure enough, after the power of the soul surrounded the holy fire, the strange power of erasure no longer occurred.
The sense of danger in his heart also slowly dissipated.
"The holy fire will protect us. Let's keep going. Just walk along the emptiest place." Beishang said.
"Okay." Lin Ji nodded.
Previously, Beishang was leading the way, but at this moment, he was leading the way.
He carefully walked over along the location that Wangqi had detected.
Beishang did not rush and followed behind with small steps.
Not long after walking forward, Lin Ji suddenly stopped.
He suddenly felt like something was wrong with his body. There was clearly no physical discomfort, but he felt as if he had lost something.
It doesn't hurt, but it hurts in my heart.
This conflicting feeling made him frown.
"What's wrong?" Beishang asked from behind.
Lin Ji turned his head and looked at Beishang, but said nothing.
After just a moment of exploration, he had already found the source of this strange feeling of contradiction.
It is the holy fire in his hand.
"This holy fire is eroding the power of my soul." Lin Ji said with a bit of seriousness in his tone, "The degree is very low, but after a while, I feel that half of my power of soul has been eroded. .”
Beishuang was not surprised.
"The holy fire relies on the power of the primordial spirit to exist. When the power of the primordial spirit dissipates, the holy fire also dissipates."
"Why didn't you tell me before?!" Lin Ji frowned.
It is difficult to cultivate the power of the soul, especially the perfect soul after the Sun Travel Realm. It is even more difficult to improve it.
But just for a moment, half of his soul was lost out of thin air.
If he continues like this, won't he fall back to the Night Travel Realm?
Or maybe the realm has not fallen, but the soul is in a deficit that is difficult to fill?
If this matter cannot be resolved, Lin Ji doesn't want to go on any further.
"It is true that the holy fire consumes the power of the soul, but this consumption seems to be irreversible." Lin Ji said coldly, "If I hold the holy fire for three to five days, it is possible that my soul will be swallowed up by it. Already?"
"It's not embezzling, it's erasing." Beishang seemed very patient at this time, "There won't be any harm, it's just that the power of the soul has retreated and you have to practice again."
"Is this just a thing?"
"How long have you been here?" Beishang sneered, "It has been eight years since I broke through the Night Travel Realm at the age of twenty and opened my soul."
Beishang stretched out his hand and handed it to Lin Ji.
Lin Ji understood what she meant, grabbed her finger, and explored it a little.
"Are you just in the early stages of night travel?!"
"When I was in Tianjing City, I broke through to the middle stage of the night tour." The smile on Beishang's face became colder and colder, but it was not directed at Lin Ji. Instead, it seemed like he was feeling sorry for himself.
She seemed to be smiling bitterly.
"If I were born in the Central Plains, I wouldn't dare to say that my cultivation level is higher than yours now, but at least I would be a monk in the early days of traveling in Japan. But I happened to be in Northern Xinjiang, in the Holy Fire Sect, and I became a saint in the sect."
With that said, Beishuang raised his head again, stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance.
In the far distance over there, you can see a high platform.
"That's the Holy Fire Altar. Once I go there, I can complete my mission and be free."
Lin Ji looked in the direction she pointed, and it was not far away.
But he was still thinking about the meaning of Beishang's words.
relief?
