It had been nearly twenty years since I had such a long conversation with anyone. The old monster in the dark had a dry throat after speaking and wished he had a cup of spiritual tea at hand.
Seeing He Gu's expression of profound realization, he felt quite pleased.
It seems that all my hard work and sincere words were not in vain...
This scene at this moment is a bit like a master preaching to his apprentice, which makes the old monster miss the life outside a little, and his mind that has been dormant for many years gradually becomes active.
At a certain moment, his heart suddenly moved, and his turbid eyes looked up at the thin slit in the sky thousands of feet above.
A hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
He murmured to himself in a voice that could only be heard by himself: "It really comes to whatever comes to mind, hehe..."
After calming down, I looked at He Gu and found that he had entered a mysterious state of enlightenment that is rare for practitioners.
Stopping the idea of calling him, the old man began to look back on himself and deal with his own affairs.
Feeling the suppressive power of "special care" on his body, he calmly looked inside at the essence of energy and blood that was constantly being extracted from his body.
After pondering for a moment, he touched the Dantian on his abdomen with his withered hands and took out a dozen things one after another.
Immediately started tinkering skillfully.
Most of the day passed before he stopped what he was doing.
He looked up at He Gu who was still enlightened, then touched his belly and took out a jade slip with the power of space.
…
He Gu's epiphany only lasted a day. When he came back to his senses, it was already "midnight" on the Demon Prison Island.
A cold and strong wind was blowing inexplicably in the deep ditch, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Realizing that He Gu had reached the end of his enlightenment, the old monster in the darkness also opened his cloudy old eyes, and all his energy leaked out.
Looking at the deep eyes of the young man in front of him who were obviously more open-minded and unrestrained than before, the old man smiled with relief.
"He Gu, how do you feel?"
No matter what the identity of the other party is, at least his words helped me to untie my knot, and I was lucky enough to enter a state of enlightenment that was of great benefit.
Despite the deep-rooted racial hostility, He Gu was still very grateful.
He immediately bent down and gave a big salute, sincerely thanking him: "Thank you, senior, for your guidance."
The old devil smiled strangely and said, "Thank you. Just remember the favor."
He Gu was choked by the other party's straightforward words, and he was slightly ashamed, but Lian Dao would never forget it.
Recalling everything that happened with the girls before, after his enlightenment, he had already accepted the side effects from the innate Yang Formation in his heart, and knew how to maintain the appropriate balance point of his Taoist heart.
At this moment, he became more determined in his attitude towards relationships in the future, and he was not as completely negative about selfish desires as before.
I am who I am, and my desires are part of me.
As long as I remain myself, I will always be above my desires, and my desires must surrender and comply with my true heart.
Looking back on his thoughts, He Gu recalled what the old devil had said before that the Yin-Yang Formation had different side effects on those who recognized the Master of the Yang Formation and those who recognized the Master of the Yin Formation, and was a little worried about the Master.
If the yang pattern is too positive, it will be easy to get emotional. If the yin pattern is too yin, it will be hard to be emotional. Once the desire arises, the past accumulation will burst out together.
So, the abnormal reaction that Master showed after he took me, who was injured and unconscious, back to Wujin Peak is also related to the influence of the innate Yin Formation?
He Gu changed his mind and immediately ruled out this speculation.
After all, the old demon clearly told him that the influence of the Yin-Yang Formation would not affect his reason, and the Taoist Heart could still play its role.
Leng Qingzhu's cultivation realm is much higher than his, so his Taoist heart will naturally not be affected by this.
In other words, his master was really angry at that time.
He Gu felt a little depressed when he thought of this.
He couldn't remember what happened after he fell into coma. Before that, he clearly remembered that the master had shown that he was not angry.
Unable to think of a solution for the time being, he suppressed his thoughts and asked the old devil for advice again.
"Old senior, is there any way to mitigate the impact of the Yin-Yang Formation?"
It seemed that it would be impossible to resolve him, so I focused on mitigating it.
After his mental state grew, he no longer cared much about the impact of the Yang Formation, and was mainly worried about the interference caused by the Yin Formation to his master.
After all, the two are affected differently.
He still remembered that the two of them were in the upside-down tower under the lava lake, and the huge contrast in Leng Qingzhu's personality when he recognized the Master of the Innate Yin Formation still made his heart tremble every time he recalled it.
Although he was quite moved, he was still worried about Leng Qingzhu's situation.
In fact, when he was worried about this, he ignored the fact that Leng Qingzhu was stronger than him.
And they ignored that the two of them were still affected by the power of lust at that time. This was different from the side effects brought about by the Yin and Yang Formation now, and it really amplified the desires of the two of them at that time.
Seeing that He Gu was stunned for a long time and asked such a question, the old monster replied truthfully: "As long as the Taoist heart is not unbalanced, it will not have much leading effect just like being slightly drunk.
...If it must be relieved, just release it regularly. "
"Regular release?" Mr. He Gu felt that this word was a bit dirty.
The old monster suddenly lost his temper and said, "You can think about it for yourself. When the old man really says it, you will fight against the old man again."
"Uh uh..." He Gu understood it completely now and broke into sweat instantly.
He really wanted to, but he really didn't dare.
It's not that he is cowardly, but that Leng Qingzhu treats him too well.
This kind of kindness is different from that of his junior sister. He and Lin Ji'er have always been devoted to each other, and psychologically they are equal.
And Leng Qingzhu's kindness to him was always a one-sided contribution. She didn't lack anything and didn't need He Gu to care about anything, so He Gu couldn't always treat her with a normal heart.
The barrier of respecting each other in his heart has been raised too high in the past, and it is really difficult for him to truly cross it in a short period of time.
unless……
The master took the initiative to attack him.
Then he can guarantee that he will not resist or surrender easily.
But when I think about it, I feel that it is completely impossible for such a thing to happen... Well, it seems to have happened once...
Thinking of that experience again, He Gu couldn't help but have some private delusions.
But after my brain calmed down, I still thought that it would never happen again in the future.
The only way out seemed to be the goal he had always worked hard for: to make his master like him.
To be honest, the difficulty is not as high as the average level.
His thoughts went around in circles, but he found that the problem had returned to its original point.
In the darkness, the old monster silently watched He Gu who was lost in thought. He took in the worry, excitement, distress and determination that appeared on He Gu's face from time to time, and finally felt relieved.
I’m not afraid that people can’t do it, but I’m afraid that people won’t even dare to think about it.
As long as you dare to think, there will always be opportunities.
After taking great pains to help He Gu gain enlightenment, he believed that He Gu would work hard to seize the opportunity in the future.
When the old monster felt satisfied, He Gu also stopped thinking, looking a little tired.
The boat would naturally straighten out when it reached the bridge. He reminded himself in his mind that he must take the initiative to get closer to his master and adapt to changes in the future.
He could no longer be like before, when Leng Qingzhu didn't call him, he just kept to himself and didn't bother him.
Of course, the first step was to repair the relationship between the two. If possible, he would also like to find out the reason why Leng Qingzhu was unusually angry this time, so as to prevent it from happening again in the future.
After clearing his thoughts, He Gu turned his attention back to the Demon Subduing Trial.
Activating the sensing ability of the Golden Spirit Seal, he immediately discovered that at the limit of the sensing distance above him, several light points were moving quickly and passing by.
Understanding that the environment outside was now in extreme danger, he put away the thought of leaving the dark ditch at this time and turned to look at the darkness ahead where the golden light spot was.
At this moment, he also realized that the old devil really didn't intend to take action against him.
Anyway, I don’t plan to leave at this time, so I don’t use the ready-made free teachers in vain.
Saluting respectfully, he faced the direction of the golden dot and solemnly begged: "Old senior, I have only recently had the opportunity to use my natural ability. I am groping alone without knowing whether the method is right. I would like to ask the old senior to help guide me."
The old monster paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Haha... You kid is really not polite to me at all."
But he didn't refuse.
All the help has come to this point, so I can only help people to the end to avoid wasting all the efforts.
He also expected He Gu to repay his debt of gratitude today in the future.
He Gu was even more convinced that the old demon was not hostile to him for the time being, and felt a little embarrassed.
Although he understood that this was the effect brought about by his pretending to be a demon, he still had a slight change in his view of the evil demon.
In the following time, the old monster began to explain the demon's natural abilities from the basics. The process was quite patient and detailed.
He Gu didn't come close, he just sat cross-legged on the spot and listened carefully.
From the old demon's words, he gradually heard some information about the demons that was completely different from what he had known before.
The five ferocious beasts in the mouths of humans and monsters are the five great spiritual beasts in the mouths of demons, and they are also called holy beasts.
Legend has it that there are five origins of heaven and earth, which are controlled by the five spiritual beasts. The spiritual seals recorded as demon seals by the human demon clan are obtained by the demon clan after they devoutly believe in the five spiritual beasts.
Therefore, the demons have always believed that they are descendants of the five great spiritual beasts.
Even after the five great spiritual beasts became distant history, the demon clan still insisted on believing in the five great spiritual beasts and continued to regard them as the spiritual totems of the tribe.
With the help of spiritual seals, demons can surpass other races and directly communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which can be used temporarily.
Invoking the power of the spiritual seal all year round will imprint and leave unique magic patterns on the bones of both palms.
During the invocation process, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is still ownerless and cannot exist in the body, and the amount will have an upper limit each time.
This upper limit depends on how strong the devil's body is enough to withstand the activation of the power of the spiritual seal.
If it exceeds this value, the demon will explode instantly like a burst balloon.
Therefore, in order to maximize their combat effectiveness, demons will devote all their spiritual root system training to strengthening the physical body and improving physical defense. During battle, the spiritual seal system will be the main focus.
Although the demons are powerful enough to fight across levels, they suffer from the pressure of a short lifespan.
Compared with other races, even the life span gained through practicing the spiritual root system will be shortened by half, as if they have been subjected to some kind of natural curse.
So the demons spent a long period of time trying their best to study the method of extending life.
Until a capable person from the Demon Clan discovered that absorbing the energy and blood of other creatures could replenish their lives, the survival situation of the Demon Clan changed.
Although this method has an upper limit at each level, it does not hinder the crazy degree of temptation it brings.
