Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 213
In the sea of ​​consciousness of businessman Yang Changfu, Shangguan Jin's divine sense had a fierce confrontation with the transparent Gu worm.

The little sword of divine sense shuttles quickly.

The transparent Gu worms dodged around.

In the blink of an eye, there are thousands of turns.

And Yang Changfu's soul was trembling aside.

As a weak and helpless mortal, when the two big bosses were fighting inside his body, he could only stand aside silently, not daring to say anything, let alone intervene.

Shangguan Jin has completely gained the upper hand.

Her little sword of divine sense was already engulfed in a thunderous momentum, and was about to launch the final blow to the Gu worm.

The transparent Gu insect breath has become extremely weak, and it seems that it will completely dissipate soon.

However, at this moment, an accident happened.

Shangguan Jin's expression suddenly froze.

With a flash of silver light, the dying Gu worm suddenly began to breathe rapidly, and its size also increased sharply—from a mayfly that could be killed with a wave of hand, to a thick and long centipede.

Its whole body is black, with a pair of stubby tentacles and hundreds of body segments, each segment has a pair of legs, which looks hideous and terrifying.

"Damn it." Shangguan Jin cursed secretly.

She knew that this was the action of the people behind the scenes.

Although she still doesn't know the identity of that person, the terrifying strength displayed by him at the level of spirit and soul is enough to make her palpitate.

Before she could fully recover, the centipede's first pair of hooked feet began to secrete transparent venom continuously, flooding the entire space of consciousness.

Shangguan Jin's thoughts paused for a moment.

Immediately, a feeling of despair welled up from the depths of her heart, like spring water, almost engulfing her soul.

She appeared to be a drowning person, floating in the water beneath the ice.

Someone walks on the ice.

She beat the ice powerlessly, but no one noticed her figure.

And on her feet, there seemed to be heavy iron chains, pulling her down, dragging her into the endless abyss.

At this moment, Shangguan Jin already understood that the centipede's venom, just like her little sword of divine sense, was also a concrete product of some kind of spiritual magic.

It can arouse the opponent's negative emotions, causing it to spread and grow rapidly, until the opponent completely sinks into despair-after all, the soul in despair is often the most vulnerable.

With all her willpower, she struggled against it.

However, many memories that were once deeply buried in her heart still inevitably emerged in her mind——

She remembered that when her mother was dying, she touched her cheek and said softly to her: "Xiao Jin, you need to walk the road ahead by yourself."

She remembered that when she was working in an inn when she was a child, she accidentally broke a ceramic teapot, and the boiling water splashed on her hands, scalding small blisters one after another, which made her cry in pain; but the innkeeper didn't notice her at all. With a painful expression, he just looked at his teapot distressedly, then picked up the broom, beat her hard, and cursed at her: "You clumsy fat pig!"

She remembered the Lantern Festival when she first joined the Exorcism Department as a small official, and she met with her colleagues to watch the lanterns by the Luo River; she used the money she had saved for several months to buy face powder, rouge and golden steps, I want to dress up beautifully like girls of the same age.However, when her companions saw her, they couldn't help laughing, saying that she looked like a "big man with paint on it" and "an ugly woman on the stage". (see chapter for notes)
She remembered that after working as a pawn for two years, she finally had a chance to be promoted. She thought that with her meritorious service and cultivation level, she would be able to pass the examination and become a ninth-rank official. A distant relative of an adult from a certain thousand households", taking away her chance.

……

A few years later, the head of the department said to her earnestly: "The Jade Sutra is more than a tool, and the sword is drawn and buried, and it depends on the sky. It is the suffering you have experienced in the past that made you what you are today."

With a polite smile on Shangguan Jin's face, he thanked the chief minister for his teaching.She knew that what the chief executive said was right—without these painful experiences, she would never be like what she is today, trying her best to become stronger and more perfect, and get rid of the weak and ugly person she used to be. Own.

She thought she had already taken these things lightly.

But now, "Heart Gu" has quietly awakened her unbearable memories, causing her mind to sink into the vortex of negative emotions.

She lowered her head and remained silent.

Only two lines of tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, flowed down her cheeks, and landed on her skirt.

…………

Gu Xu noticed the change in her expression.

With his spiritual perception far beyond ordinary people, he also clearly noticed that the spiritual strength of businessman Yang Changfu was rising rapidly, becoming stronger than that of low-level monks.

Of course he knew that this power was definitely not Yang Changfu's own power, but came from the person behind the scenes who manipulated the "Heart Gu".

The man's strength was far beyond his imagination.

Even Shangguan Jin, who was unfathomable on weekdays, was losing ground in this spiritual confrontation, sinking into negative emotions and unable to extricate himself.

Gu Xu frowned slightly, and looked at Shi Xiaohan who was beside him: "Xiaohan, Fellow Daoist Shangguan may have encountered some troubles during the battle, and I need to help her. If after [-] breaths, I, like her, will not be able to recover from the battle with spiritual consciousness." Please rush back to the Yamen of the Exorcism Department immediately, and tell the chief of the department about this matter."

Shi Xiaohan gave an "um" and nodded seriously.

Spiritual battles are too mysterious for her.She has never practiced this method, so naturally she can't get involved.

She can only do not make trouble.

And within the scope of one's ability, contribute as much as possible.

——Of course, she might not be able to help even if she tipped off the news.

Because Chief Luo has mastered the art of deduction of secrets, he can always pay attention to the safety of Gu Xu's life.

Gu Xu made such an instruction, in fact, just to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Kongxuan Sanren once left a deep psychological shadow on him.

He was very afraid that the enemy hidden in the dark also had the spell to shield the secrets of heaven.

…………

In the next second, Gu Xu's eyes turned deep black with the help of the spiritual spell "Eclipse".

His mind also drifted into Yang Changfu's conscious world, he saw the huge and ferocious centipede, he saw Shangguan Jin's little sword of divine sense, and he also saw Yang Changfu's trembling soul beside him.

The centipede's "venom" permeates this space.

As soon as Gu Xu's divine sense came in, he was inevitably submerged in it.

Painful memories were quietly awakened.

He remembered that when he had just crossed over to this world, he found that he would never see his parents, relatives and friends again. The emotions of fear, loneliness and sadness welled up in his heart, which made him at a loss.

He remembered that when he obtained the talent of "Unfortunate Genius", he smiled lightly on his face, but secretly cursed God thousands of times in his heart.

He remembered that beside the black altar on Mount Yi, he was forced by Kongxuan Sanren to learn "Zhaoming Forbidden Art".He couldn't do anything - he could only step on the bridge of Naihe with silent anger.

If we say that Shangguan Jin's negative emotions mainly come from the shadow of childhood, from the words of others, and from the loneliness of being unattended.

Then Gu Xu's negative emotions mainly come from his sense of powerlessness that his fate is controlled by others.

Just like what the white-haired boy on the Naihe Bridge said - "Your life is too depressing, too aggrieved".

He hated the feeling.

"Thank you." He smiled and said softly to the person behind the scenes who didn't know where he was hiding.

He is climbing the "Homesick Ridge" now, and he just needs to experience all kinds of emotions and sharpen his Dao heart with the help of mortals.

Just at this time, the other party awakened the anger buried in his heart and presented him with a big gift.

His pupils turned indigo blue.

The strength of the "solar eclipse" is no longer enough to defeat the opponent.

What he needs is a vast and boundless night sky.
