After finishing the "experiment" with Xiaoyao, Ma En briefly chatted with him about the matter, and then naturally began to guide the topic to what he cared about most.
"The anti-psychic metal thing..." Ma En said curiously.
Xiaoyao said as if he suddenly remembered:
"By the way, I just want to tell you about this."
He raised his hand and wiped it gently in the air. The mist slowly gathered in the air, forming a circular air cake with a diameter of about two meters. As he took his hand back to his waist, the mist in the middle began to move towards spread out and slowly turned into a circle.
After the mist dispersed, a dark red light overflowed, and the surging heat also brushed Ma En's cheek. Behind the mist was a hall full of flames, with various tools everywhere, some like Hammers and fans were things that Ma En was familiar with, and there were also some weird things that he couldn't see having any use for.
In the middle of the hall, there is a huge boulder almost three meters high.
"This is the anti-psychic metal you want." Xiaoyao looked at the scene behind the fog circle and said, "After I proposed using Longevity Pill and the Federation to exchange anti-psychic metal, they responded immediately, and in your friend's family there is also They provided us with some help, and the Federation gave me a lot of freedom when choosing anti-psychic metal, which is pretty good among level V anti-psychic metals."
Ma En asked unabashedly:
"How far is it from becoming a spiritual treasure that can withstand psychic attacks?"
Xiaoyao didn't show any signs of his urgency:
"I have just gained a basic understanding of its characteristics. I am going to retreat for a few days and try to temper it at its most basic level. If everything goes well, I may have completed your spiritual treasure when I come out next time. It is also possible that I will encounter some problems and need to go out and find other things to help me continue to complete the weapon refining.
"Anyway, you won't see me for a short time. It just so happens that you have passed the body refining stage. You need to spend some time to accumulate spiritual energy. If you are willing to stay here, you can practice slowly.
"But if you have other things you want to do, I have prepared enough elixirs for you. If you encounter any problems in practice, you can also ask your junior sister Guan Yi. She has been asked to watch your practice these days.
"She is the one who has the most experience in low-level cultivation among your junior brothers and sisters, and she is also the most gentle among them. In fact, you can also ask Zhong Ruixue and Yu Weijie for advice, but they are not as good at teaching people as Guan Yi .”
After explaining this to Ma En, Xiaoyao took a few steps directly into the air, and then stepped behind the fog portal.
This surprised Ma En, not only because Xiaoyao obtained the anti-psychic metal so neatly, but also because he would take the initiative to leave his side to go into seclusion to refine weapons, as if he really wanted to do it for his apprentice. Refining spiritual treasures.
But this is obviously good news for him. Although Xiaoyao said that he can leave here now and go to other places to practice using spiritual pills, it seems that he can just wait outside for him to refine the weapon.
But as long as Xiaoyao is not extremely stupid, he can avoid the rabbit and the hawk, and the process of refining is also under his control. If he really has any purpose, he can just declare that he has not completed the refining, so it will not be exposed. own wariness.
And although Xiaoyao hasn't given him the pill yet.
When Ma En returned to the practice room, he saw Guan Yi already waiting for him there.
"Senior brother." The girl raised her hand and waved, but her movements still seemed a bit restrained, "Master asked me to help you practice."
Obviously she is still a little afraid of herself because of Du Jin's matter. In fact, this is also a good thing in Ma En's opinion. At least she is more humane than the other two senior brothers and sisters who seem not to care about Du Jin's life or death.
Ma En walked up to her and said:
"Master also told me, are you going to teach me how to breathe out spiritual energy?"
The girl nodded heavily:
"You should be halfway into the Qi training stage now. You only need to breathe in the spiritual energy to get started."
Ma En asked:
"Master said he left some elixirs for me..."
The girl immediately said:
"Master has given all the elixirs to me for safekeeping. There are some differences between practicing with spiritual elixirs and breathing in spiritual energy directly. Although the spirit gathering elixir is actually concentrated spiritual energy, it is still an elixir, and there are some things that need to be paid attention to when taking the medicine. .
"If you don't mind, I can take you in to try out how to take it, but it's best for you to swallow ordinary spiritual energy first to get used to what spiritual energy is."
Ma En followed her to the practice room and asked casually:
"When I inhale the spiritual energy, won't I accidentally inhale the master's body?"
The girl thought for a while and replied:
"Actually, as long as you pay attention, you should be able to distinguish the spiritual energy from the master's body. But you are right. They are indeed perfectly integrated. You may accidentally swallow the master's body when you have just practiced qi. Body.
"But don't worry, Master will flow out in cooperation with your body, and Xiaoyao Gong cannot let you devour Master's body. You can only turn the spiritual energy into a part of yourself. The mist cannot be digested by us. thing.
"If you are still worried, you can try practicing with the Spirit Gathering Pill first to feel what pure spiritual energy is like.
"Anyway, Master said you are a genius, so there shouldn't be any problem with the order."
Faced with Ma En's "doubts", the girl took the initiative to let him practice with the Spirit Gathering Pill first. In fact, she really thought so. After all, it is indeed uncomfortable to inhale other people's bodies into the body.
Ma En and her returned to the quiet room where they practiced. Then the girl took out a few boxes from the bag on her waist and stuffed the tabletop directly into Ma En.
"You keep these first. Master hasn't had time to make a Qiankun bag for you yet. I will keep the other spirit-gathering pills for you for the time being." She said sincerely, "I will give them to you at any time if you want them."
Marn took the box she handed over, stuffed most of them into the shadow dimension, and teleported one of them back to the Control Bureau.
There is no problem with the elixir.
When Xiaoyao said that the mist was his body, Ma En was very suspicious that he would use it to do something. However, he actually didn't think that Xiaoyao would use this against him immediately, but that he would relax at some point. No matter what you do to yourself.
You must know that he is now in Xiaoyao's "body", and even if he does not enter the body, the mist is quite dangerous to him.
"Sit with me." Guan Yi walked to the opposite side of Ma En and sat cross-legged. "First put the elixir under your tongue."
Although she was a little afraid of this senior brother at first, after these few contacts, Guan Yi was actually not so afraid of him. Ma En behaved quite gently, which made her doubts increase a bit.
Ma En crossed his legs opposite her and swallowed the elixir into his mouth, then closed his eyes.
The girl continued:
"Now hold your breath and start to exhale the spiritual energy in your mouth according to Xiaoyao Gong. The spirit-gathering pill will slowly dissolve in your mouth. For practitioners, spiritual energy is like mortal air. You only need to breathe out the final The elixir eliminates the need to breathe..."
Before the girl finished speaking, Ma En quickly entered a state of trance in front of her. This made Guan Yi feel a little surprised. He was really a genius on the path of cultivation as the master said. And it's not like it's difficult for mortals in other desolate worlds to enter samadhi.
In fact, among her senior brothers and sisters, only Zhong Ruixue quickly entered samadhi during her first practice. She and the other two senior brothers all encountered some problems when crossing this stage. It also took senior brother Du Jin two days to enter samadhi. I was stuck here for seven days, and Yu Weijie failed to enter meditation for half a month. Finally, he found the feeling with the help of Anxin Pills.
And Ma En has already completed the body refining stage within a few days of becoming a disciple of the sect, and he has not encountered any obstacles when entering samadhi. This seems to mean that his foundation and understanding are both excellent, and it also shows that in his heart There are no distracting thoughts.
This made the girl feel a little more admiration. When the master said that Ma En was a demon, Guan Yi actually didn't know what kind of person her new senior brother was, but now she saw Ma En with her own eyes. Entering samadhi is as simple as breathing.
With his general mind and character, Ma En can indeed be said to be a genius in cultivation.
But this only aggravated Guan Yi's worries, because there was always a question in her heart that had not yet been answered.
That's why Ma En wanted to kill senior brother Du Jin?
Thinking like this, Guan Yi began to observe Ma En's face.
Ma En's expression became more and more peaceful after he fell into trance. Just looking at this face, Guan Yi even slowly felt that her heart began to become peaceful - this was not an illusion, because people Her true nature is often revealed when she is in meditation, and she also has the ability to observe faces.
In addition to the speed of entering samadhi, which can reflect how many impurities there are in a young practitioner's heart, the expression on his or her face after entering samadhi will also reflect a person's most important character deep inside. A guy with a bad temper will often have a fierce look on his face when he enters samadhi.
But Ma En's peaceful expression at this moment completely exceeded Guan Yi's expectations, making it difficult for her to imagine that Ma En would kill her senior brother.
She actually didn't understand why someone wanted to kill other people, and she rarely saw such things in the world of cultivation.
And although her former senior brother could not be said to be a particularly good person, he was definitely not a bad person. Apart from being a little too persistent in his practice, the senior brother in her memory was always very good to her and had never done anything bad in his life.
But the Ma En in front of him didn't seem to be a monster. From this short period of contact, Guan Yi felt that he was no different from other young practitioners he knew, and there were no surging evil thoughts in his heart.
This gradually made Guan Yi feel a little conflicted.
If none of them were bad people, then why did anyone die?
What exactly is the problem?
Just when she was deep in thought, a young male voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Senior brother, junior sister, are you here?"
When the visitor spoke, he opened the door directly.
What appeared was the figure of Yu Weijie. After he walked in, he swept the whole room neatly. After seeing that Ma En had fallen into trance, Yu Weijie showed an expression of disbelief, and then a hint of ambiguity flashed across his face. of joy.
He looked at Guan Yi who was staring at Ma En and said:
"Junior sister, is our new senior brother's face so good-looking?"
Guan Yi turned around as if suddenly awakened, and then looked at Yu Weijie warily:
"I'm just a little curious about who he is."
Yu Weijie looked at her and said:
"I remember that Senior Brother Du Jin used to be the best to you among the three of us. Are you thinking about him?"
Guan Yi nodded:
"I don't understand why he wanted to kill Senior Brother Du Jin."
Yu Weijie smiled:
"Is there anything I can't understand? It's not uncommon to kill someone during a sparring match. Maybe one of them got on top when they were killing, and accidentally revealed a bit of murderous intent. Then the opponent also gave him a relative response. reaction, and then it became like this.
"And if you believe the federation's words, it was Senior Brother Du Jin who took the lead in making the fatal move during the competition. As for why, I can actually think of it a little bit."
Guan Yi asked in surprise:
"Do you know why?"
Yu Weijie looked at Ma En, and then sent a message to her:
"Senior Brother Du is better than us in many aspects. Maybe he can see Ma En's talent, feels that his status and resources will be shaken because of Ma En, and foresees that Master may accept him as his disciple.
"Then it makes sense for him to take the killing blow."
Guan Yi said puzzledly:
"But is it really worth the risk that he might die to kill someone?"
She couldn't figure out what was worth dying for.
Yu Weijie said somewhat amusingly:
"Junior sister, you are still too naive. Who can stick to the bottom line in the face of this kind of thing? Our master is not really decent, and we have been in the deserted world for so long. Haven't you reacted yet? ?
"Du Jin may have been as you imagined before, but he has also understood that the previous legal principles in the Desolate World are meaningless. The methods of the Cultivation World are not applicable here at all. If he does not take the lead, he will only become a Taoist. He gave up his opportunity to others and ended his own practice.
"Didn't you understand the hint Master gave us?"
Guan Yi asked:
"You are talking about what Master said for us to work hard."
In fact, she was also a little confused about what Master said at that time. Guan Yi always felt that Master seemed to have something in his words at that time, but she was a little reluctant to believe that Master meant what Yu Weijie said.
Yu Weijie said:
"Yes, I think Master is hinting to us that he will take away our opportunity to become enlightened. Now that Master has gone to retreat, he has directly made it clear that he will not interfere in this matter. I think his meaning is very simple.
"If we don't do something else, Ma'an will rob us of our chance to become enlightened."
Guan Yi looked at him puzzled:
"what do you want to do?"
Yu Weijie did not conceal his intention:
"Senior brother did nothing wrong, he is just inferior in skills, and I want to finish what he has not done - I want to kill Ma En.
"The Heavenly Demon Body is not only suitable for cultivation, it can also be used for refining alchemy and refining weapons."
Guan Yi said in surprise:
"Are you crazy?"
Yu Weijie sneered and said:
"No, Master has actually given us a hint, and I can understand that you didn't understand.
"But you don't need to know, just get out of my way."
Guan Yi stood up and said seriously:
"impossible."
Yu Weijie looked puzzled:
"Don't you want to avenge your senior brother? Although I don't like Du Jin, I have to say that his kindness to you is sincere. Although this may be because you are so naive that he doesn't need to be on guard, but the fact is that Du Jin is worthy of you. .
"Why are you stopping me? If you are afraid of Master, I can assure you that this matter has nothing to do with you. As long as you let me kill him, you don't have to worry about anything."
Guan Yi said:
"I will not condone you harming your fellow disciples, Yu Weijie, don't think I'm easy to bully."
Yu Weijie narrowed his eyes:
"This is not a world of cultivation. You'd better not meddle in my own business, otherwise..."
Guan Yi replied without any fear:
"If you continue to be crazy like this, I'm going to wake Ma En up."
As she said that, she really reached out to Ma En.
Seeing this, Yu Weijie secretly spat:
"You wait."
After saying that, he turned around and left the room.
