hot!
The heat that stirs the heart!
This was Mo Juren's first reaction after entering the thatched house. He couldn't feel it at all from the outside. It was obviously isolated by the formation.
The source of all this came from the mid-air in the center of the room, where a simple pill furnace was suspended, only one foot in diameter and about three inches in height.
What's even more incredible is that through the six round holes in the tripod cover, you can clearly see a seven-color flame burning inside. The fire was not strong, but the strange fluctuations it emitted were frightening.
There was a rare trace of surprise on Mo Juren's face, especially when he stared at the seven-color flames, the burning heat that stirred from the inside out made his mind sway.
This was definitely not an ordinary flame. Although it did not have the overwhelming terrifying power when the dry blue ice flame exploded, it was still not to be underestimated, and even made him involuntarily feel a little vigilant.
He turned to look at Qing Zhenren, but the latter seemed to have guessed his thoughts. He blinked slightly and said, "What? Are you scared? Or are you worried that I will plot against you?"
"Learning from the past!" Mo Juren nodded without hesitation, as if that's what I thought, with the word "distrust" almost written on his face.
This look on his face immediately caused Master Qing's expression to freeze, and then he said angrily:
"You guessed it right, this is a trap. If you are scared, leave quickly, lest it be too late to leave later."
Perhaps because of the mark of three lives, or the unforgettable marriage in the past life, Qing Zhenren was unable to show the power that a strong man in the Nascent Soul stage should have when facing the person in front of him.
Even she herself didn't realize that when she was with the other person, her unwavering state of mind would always be affected inadvertently and involuntarily.
Speaking of which, the other party is already in the late stage of pill formation. With such a terrifying growth rate, it seems that he is not that far away from the Nascent Soul stage. If...
Suddenly, she suddenly came back to her senses. How could she be thinking so wildly?
For a moment, she felt a trace of inexplicable annoyance in her heart for no reason, but she just suppressed it so that she wouldn't show it.
This picture looked a bit angry and shy like a little girl, which also made Mo Juren scratch his head. The other party, who was already causing trouble to the country and the people, and was admired by countless male cultivators in Tiannan, suddenly behaved like this, making him look even more charming.
"Well, can you tell me what kind of flame this is?" Mo Juren suppressed the ups and downs in his heart and directly changed the subject and asked.
"You must have heard of the three inherited treasures of Jiqing Sect, right?" Master Lingqing put away his thoughts and then asked.
"I know a little bit." Mo Juren nodded and continued,
"It should be the "Seven Emotions Immortal Code", the Sky and Moon Spirit Pearl, and the legendary 'Emotion-Severing Sword' that only the sect master is qualified to hold."
"What you know is only the surface, or it is the information we deliberately disclosed to outsiders." Master Liaoqing nodded, and said, "This sect has a long heritage, and the founder of the sect in the past was a genius of the generation. The inheritance left by her old man There are not three objects, but seven, including the Seven Emotions Divine Fire and the Six Desires Furnace in front of you.
Especially the former, it was originally a strange inner fire that was condensed unintentionally when the ancestor was practicing the "Immortal Code", and then it grew into what it is today after being continuously supported by generations of sect masters.
It can be said that if we rank the seven inherited treasures of our sect, this Seven Emotions Divine Fire is enough to rank second. "
"Seven Emotions Divine Fire, Six Desires Melting Furnace!" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised. Although he didn't know the specific situation, this kind of treasure involving the seven emotions and six desires was definitely not simple.
However, a trace of doubt suddenly arose in his heart. Wasn't it said that these were secrets of the Jiqing Sect that should not be spread to the outside world? What's going on if you tell yourself?
"So, you plan to use these two treasures to refine the Soul Restoration Pill?"
"That's right." Master Liaoqing nodded and continued,
"Although the Seven Emotions Divine Fire is a special spiritual fire used to assist in the cultivation of the "Immortal Code", it has many incredible magical effects, and tempering spiritual materials and assisting the fire in refining elixirs are two of them. I was able to achieve what I am today in the alchemy path. Achievement, these two things are indispensable.”
Having said this, he immediately turned to look at the other party and said again,
"Now you can take out the medicinal materials you prepared. In addition, I also want to take a look, what does the legendary 'Ten Thousand Years Soul-nurturing Wood' look like?"
"Are you interested in this?" Mo Juren said, waving his arm, and in an instant, a stream of spiritual light flew out, and all of them flew to the ground. At the same time, his arm waved again, and one of the palm-sized jade boxes flew up and slowly approached the opponent.
"How can I not be interested in one of the three sacred trees in the world of cultivation?" Master Liaoqing nodded, took the jade box and opened it eagerly. However, what she saw was very different from what she expected. There is nothing magical about it, it is just an ugly black wood that is only a few inches long, charred, rough, and pitted. It is too inconspicuous.
As an extremely accomplished alchemist, Master Lingqing would certainly not have the superficial idea of 'judging an object by its appearance', and immediately began to examine it carefully.
As the saying goes, real gold is not afraid of fire, and this is especially true for the ten thousand-year-level soul-nurturing wood. She hadn't started to take a closer look, but as soon as she took it in her hands, she instantly felt how extraordinary this tree was. Sure enough, as recorded in the legend, as long as you come into contact with this wood, your soul will be continuously nourished by moisturizing things silently.
"What a good thing!" Master Liaoqing couldn't help but admire it, but said with great helplessness, "It's a pity that the quantity is too small. I can only refine one pair of bracelets from this piece, and it can only be a small one."
"Ahem..." Mo Juren was speechless when he heard the other party's words. What is this woman thinking? He was using it to refine medicine, so what kind of bracelet did he get?
"I'm just talking, don't you really want to do that?" Master Lingqing rolled his eyes at the other party, and then began to pick up the jade boxes below and inspect them one by one.
After a while, after making sure that everything was OK, he continued,
"Okay, everything is ready. I plan to start refining these medicinal materials today. As for you, go out and help watch, and don't let anyone disturb me during the period."
"Aren't you asking me to look at the stove?" Mo Juren was slightly surprised.
"It's just a joke, but you still take it seriously!" Master Liaoqing laughed dumbly and said again,
"Besides, with the help of the Seven Emotions Divine Fire and the Six Desires Furnace, why do I need your help? Just don't cause any trouble for me."
"Did you deliberately tease me before co-writing?" Mo Juren was speechless, but did not say it out loud. It's better not to use it yourself, and it saves trouble. Dang even nodded slightly and left the room without hesitation.
…
After walking out of the thatched house, Mo Juren originally planned to return to his residence, but he met Murong Yue who was walking slowly towards him. He froze there for a moment, not saying hello, nor not saying hello.
Unexpectedly, Murong Yue was a little different today. Unlike her dead-like indifference yesterday, her expression and temperament became more alive.
"Mo... Mo Juren, long time no see." Suddenly, Murong Yue took the initiative to speak, with unspeakable complexity in her crystal eyes.
"Uh, long time no see." Mo Juren was startled, and suddenly thought of the conversation when he met Liu Jing and his wife that day in Tiantian City, and said again,
"Has your memory returned?"
"Yeah" Murong Yue nodded slightly, glanced at Han Yunzhi who was also walking slowly in the distance, and then said,
"Can...can I talk to you alone?"
"Of course." Mo Juren agreed with a smile. At this time, he also sensed Han Yunzhi's approach and gave the other party a few words. Then he turned back again, pointed to an area full of flowers in front of him and said,
"Just go for a walk over there."
The valley is full of exotic flowers and plants, and the scenery is pleasing to the eye everywhere. Especially one of the areas covered with all kinds of colorful and exotic flowers has obviously been carefully taken care of and is even more beautiful.
The two of them left the small courtyard one after the other and slowly approached the flower area. However, Murong Yue, who was behind her, was biting her pink lips, always looking like she was hesitant to speak.
"Should I call you Miss Murong or Miss Chen now?" The other party never spoke, so Mo Juren could only stop and ask first.
"Chen Qiaoqian is in the past, you... just call me Murong Yue." Murong Yue's eyes flashed and she replied softly.
"That's fine." Mo Juren nodded and continued,
"Ms. Murong and Mr. Mo are also familiar with each other. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
"In the past... In the past, my soul was damaged and all my memory was lost. Thanks to my Taoist friends for helping me..." Murong Yue seemed to have finally made up her mind and took the initiative to talk about the past.
"It's nothing to worry about." Mo Juren shook his head slightly.
"In that dream in the past, Mr. Mo's methods were indeed a bit extreme, and it was inevitable that he would offend me. I hope Miss Murong won't care about it."
"Dream!" At the mention of this matter, Murong Yue's bright eyes flashed slightly, and her mind felt unknowingly. After a long time, he continued,
"You were doing business for the sake of business, so why are you saying such extreme things? It was just that I had just woken up at the time and was unable to stabilize my mood, so I did such inappropriate actions. I hope fellow Taoist people don't care about it."
"It's understandable." Mo Juren sighed softly. In the past, in his dream, in order to let the other person experience the seven emotions in the world, he used extreme methods to torture him all over his body with bruises, joy and sorrow, hardship and hardship, life and death. No, I have experienced everything like love, hate and hatred.
Let alone the other person, it would be impossible for anyone to accept the reality in a short time after experiencing all this. It was good that the other party punched and kicked him crazily after he woke up, but it was the other party's kindness that he didn't fight for his life.
Maybe it's because we talked it out, or maybe the other person has let go. In short, in the following time, Murong Yue began to become talkative, talking about many experiences over the years, including those in the Jiqing Sect and the Nine Nations Alliance.
As a close disciple of Master Ling Qing, he is also the future young master of Ji Qing Sect. Today's Murong Yue is no longer what she used to be. No matter in terms of strength or status, every time she returns to the Nine Nations Alliance to visit relatives, she will be treated as an honored guest by Huang Maple Valley.
She also specifically mentioned Liu Jing and Zhong Weiniang, as well as Li Huayuan and Fairy Hongfu, and knew that they had been rescued by him, etc.
After a simple exchange, the inexplicable barriers between the two people were eliminated unconsciously.
However, everything experienced in the dream is illusion, and you can let it go and no longer hold on to it. However, the 'Three Lives Mark' is a real thing and cannot be ignored.
It's a pity that the other party never mentioned this matter from beginning to end, as if it didn't exist. In this case, Mo Juren naturally couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only pretend not to know.
"By the way, there is one more thing that Mo is curious about. I wonder if Miss Murong can help me answer my questions?" When they were about to leave, Mo Juren suddenly thought of something and asked immediately.
"If you have anything to say, fellow Taoist, please speak up."
"It's not a big deal. It's just that yesterday, my fellow Taoist looked indifferent and kept away from strangers. Why has there been such a big change today? Like two different people?" Mo Juren didn't ask randomly. , but I am very sure that something was wrong with the other party yesterday.
"I practiced the Art of Forgetting Love, and I was under the influence of the secret technique at that time." Murong Yue was stunned, but did not hide anything, and immediately replied.
"So that's it." Mo Juren suddenly realized that after using the Forgetting Art, he could indeed maintain absolute sanity within a few days, which was very consistent with the other party's state yesterday.
It can also be inferred that the reason why the opponent has not been affected for many years and has successfully broken through to the pill formation stage is probably because he has practiced this technique.
However, this method is obviously limited and should not be used in all situations or stages. Otherwise, the real person wouldn't have asked him for help when he fell in love.
Soon, the discussion between the two parties ended, and Mo Juren immediately said goodbye and walked towards the thatched house where he lived.
Looking at his back, Murong Yue did not immediately return to her residence, but her expression became trance-like.
Everything in the past dreams was indeed false. However, all the bits and pieces of the experience have turned into unforgettable memories and are deeply imprinted in my heart. How can I forget it so easily?
Unfortunately, even so, she really had no reason to hate him anymore. Originally, all this started with the purpose of repairing his soul. The other party took action at the request of the master, and there was nothing wrong in what he did. On the contrary, how could she blame the other person when she was still kind to herself?
Over the years, she gradually figured it out, and her original hatred dissipated. All that was left were the beautiful memories in her dreams, and the longing for her children in the dream.
She also knew that it was all fake, but she still couldn't control it, and she didn't even want to control it. Instead, she felt that it was because of her longing that the pair of children became more real.
…
Time passed slowly, and more than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The matter of refining the elixir was left to the full responsibility of Qing Zhenren, and Mo Juren had nothing to do with it. Naturally, he enjoyed his leisure time. Apart from meditating and practicing, he basically had nothing to do every day.
I have to say that refining the Soul Restoration Pill is not easy. Master Liaoqing personally took action, and with the assistance of the Seven Emotions Divine Fire and the Six Desires Furnace, it still took such a long time.
One day more than half a month later, Master Lingqing finally walked out of the thatched house. However, before she could say anything, she suddenly turned her head and looked into the air.
With a slight move of his jade hand, a flash of fire appeared out of thin air, which was the messenger talisman. The strange thing is that the spiritual talisman did not fly towards Qing Zhenren, but changed its direction and flew straight towards Mo Juren.
"Looking for me!" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised, then took the magic talisman into his palm and let go of his consciousness to check it. After reading the contents, he, who was originally calm, could no longer bear it, and instantly showed a look of 'surprise'.
