"A spirit born in the shadows?"
She quietly poked her head out, and Xiao Qing, who was also attracted by the shadow spirit's description, muttered.
Shadows are things that are only born when sunlight appears. Even in the polar regions, the longest shadow does not last more than half a year.
In theory, something like this is almost impossible to achieve.
After all, even human beings, who are born with nine orifices, need to be pregnant for ten months to have the basis of "thinking", let alone things like shadows that exist for a very short time.
It was in the man-made cave of the Mirror World that Zhao Guizhen was able to cultivate today's shadow spirits with this almost "creative" method.
Even so, the shadow spirits cannot be exposed to the sun, otherwise they will disappear in an instant.
"May I have your name?"
Pei Wende, who also knew this, suddenly asked.
After eliminating all possibilities, no matter how bizarre the shadow spirit's words are, they are still the truth.
"My...name is...Linglong!"
Linglong, who spoke more and more fluently, smiled and replied.
For Linglong, who has been here for who knows how long, every communication with Pei Wende at this time is a new experience that has never been experienced before.
"Linglong?"
Hearing this, Pei Wende looked up at the pagoda where he was, and gained a new understanding of Linglong's existence.
This self-proclaimed "Linglong" existence is definitely not just the shadow of Zhao Guizhen.
"Nine-story exquisite pagoda, seven-orificed exquisite heart..."
"Is this what you left behind?"
Pei Wende, who suddenly raised his voice, was not talking to Linglong, but to the entire Linglong Pagoda.
"Actually, I felt a little strange when I first entered this world."
"Although the 'Eight Formation Diagram' outside has the ability to resist foreign enemies, it also has the meaning of gathering the power of heaven and earth and gathering changes from all directions."
"Unfortunately, my sister once left a 'Green Bag Formation' in Weishan, which is similar to your eight formations."
Pei Wende recounted his findings in a leisurely manner. He was not questioning anything, but describing an established fact.
"You used the nine-story exquisite pagoda as the core and the eight-sided formation as the changes to artificially create a miniature version of the 'general trend'."
"This 'general trend' encompasses almost all tangible changes in the world, and is a typical Qingnang technique."
"Coupled with the fact that Linglong's heart is pure and flawless, it doesn't look like a normal intelligent life at all. It only shows that you are deliberately limiting its growth."
There was a slight pause in his tone, and Pei Wende could feel that as he continued to talk, the entire Linglong Pagoda seemed to come alive.
"Zhenzhen Zhao, why don't you show up yet?"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Click...
The changes were far more rapid than Pei Wende imagined.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, clearly visible cracks appeared in the sky above the entire mirror world.
Immediately afterwards, the formation in all directions outside the Linglong Pagoda suddenly surged, and countless vitality gathered and poured into it.
Under this surge of vitality that was so huge that it was almost substantial, the dark exquisite body actually glowed with seven colors of light, and the surface of the body also appeared a flesh color that was no different from that of a living thing.
boom!
Between the lightning and flint, a ray of pure Yang spirit emerged from Linglong's body.
Then he heard a faint heartbeat coming from Linglong's heart, which attracted Pei Wende and Xiaoqing's sideways glances.
"Father?"
Kindness, surprise, excitement...
Linglong made no secret of her joy at Zhao Guizhen's return, just like a child who truly welcomes his parents back.
"I didn't expect that besides Huiji, you would also discover the truth about 'Qintian Pavilion'."
The excited expression on his face gradually faded away, and "Linglong's" face without facial features gradually turned into that of Zhao Guizhen.
In other words, the one who dominates Linglong's body at this moment is Zhao Guizhen - a wisp of his soul left in Linglong's body.
The white hair is in a bun and the eyebrows are flying into the temples.
Wearing a cyan Taoist robe with gold embroidery, it moved automatically in the wind, just like an immortal descending into the world.
Even if it was just a wisp of Yang God's manifested clone, Zhao Guizhen still maintained his masterly demeanor in front of Pei Wende.
"It's really you!"
Although he had already guessed the truth, Pei Wende couldn't help but take half a step back when he saw Zhao Guizhen's appearance.
Facing this powerful man who once penetrated Zen Master Lingyou's heart chakra and single-handedly dominated an era, Pei Wende took half a step back because of his respect for him rather than his fear.
"Now that you have discovered the truth about the 'Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart', do you want to take the opportunity to take away this heart?"
Gently covering his chest, Zhao Guizhen's expression did not change at all, as if he was asking what he should eat today.
The "Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart" understands everything in the world and knows the changes of all living beings.
It is an artifact conceived by Zhao Guizhen in imitation of Qin Tian's astronomical documents, and it is also the truth behind Linglong's ability to transform into a spirit with a shadow.
Whether it’s the Tongtian Mirror outside, the massive Eight Formations, or even this exquisite nine-story pagoda...
In fact, they are all just imitations of the "Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart".
Or to be more precise, they were all experimental products that Zhao Guizhen made in advance in order to refine the "Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart".
However, before the true "Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart" took shape, the general trend of the world had changed, and Zhao Guizhen also became the former national master.
"No, I was just out of curiosity. I didn't have any intention of playing with the 'Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart'."
Shaking his head and denying Zhao Guizhen's statement, Pei Wende indeed had no intention of prying into the so-called "Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart".
Pei Wende was just curious, what exactly was Zhao Guizhen hiding in this mirror world?
Now that Zhao Guizhen has really appeared, Pei Wende doesn't know how to face him.
"He is indeed a pervert."
Although the expression on his face did not change, Zhao Guizhen's slightly raised brows still showed his anger.
Just because of a moment of curiosity that awakened his Yang Shen, no wonder this guy would get nicknames such as Blood Slaughter Monk and Black Buddha.
If he had such a disciple, he would definitely not be as "gentle" as Zen Master Lingyou.
"You came to Qintian Pavilion to find Xuan Jue's reincarnation?"
After briefly looking through Linglong's memory, Zhao Guizhen quickly guessed Pei Wende's intention.
In the next second, endless pictures flashed through Zhao Guizhen's pupils. Those were all newborns born near Chang'an in recent years.
From appearance to name to current situation, everything is included and complete.
This is the true use of the "Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart" - to understand the things in the world and know the changes of all living beings.
