The Great Enlightenment

Chapter 829: Thousands of miles away
The rain gradually stopped, and the gorgeous golden-red morning glow fell through the layers of heavy clouds, reflecting into the mountains, forests and streams. In the hazy morning mist, the sun-drenched scenery of seven colors was vaguely visible. rainbow.

It has been raining heavily all night, and it is now Tatsuki.

The green-scaled giant snake coiled outside the cave, with its upper body half erect, holding its head high and spitting out the letter, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon contained in the sunshine, and accumulating its own psychic energy bit by bit.

The morning fog dissipated, the morning sun rose, and the sunlight falling in the sky gradually became warm. Bi Lin shook his huge head, dissipating the translucent psychic energy surrounding him, and ended today's day. Practice.

"Even for a little monster like you, without the restraint of the life lock, a mere hundred years of life should be far from the limit of your true spirit."

As the words fell, the young man in a white robe with gold threads walked out of the cave leaning on a branch and looked at Bi Lin quietly.

Although his robe was torn and somewhat tattered, it looked extremely clean, with a vague sense of purity.

In the past few days, he had eaten a lot of wild fruits and water. By absorbing the spiritual energy of the world contained in them, most of the broken muscles and bones in his body had been restored. Only the completely broken left leg bone had not yet recovered.

Bi Lin turned around and said in a hoarse voice: "Young Master, although I don't know what a life lock is, I have already thought about it. Even if I die, I am willing to give it a try."

Ji Yuenian nodded slightly and said: "In the past few days, I have been thinking about one thing. After a creature's hundred-year life span, where will its true spirit go? In this world of life locks, is there also a person for The realm of reincarnation and rebirth?”

He walked out of the cave and walked under the huge snake head with green scales. His eyes were dim and he continued, "If you step into the ghost path, you may be able to discover the secret of your true spirit. It's unknown."

Bi Lin wondered: "What is the ghost path? Why have I never heard of it?"

Ji Yuenian said: "According to my observation, there seems to have been a way to cultivate ghosts in this world, but I don't know when, the ghost ways here have been completely cut off, so we have to be careful before trying."

Bi Lin did not hesitate and said: "But just follow the young master's orders."

"So good."

Ji Yuenian walked to a rock, holding on to the protrusions on the rock with one hand, and holding the branch he had just used as a crutch with the other hand, writing and drawing on the damp mud.

After about an hour of burning incense, nine lifelike simple paintings appeared in the mud. The muddy ground was damp and soft after the rain, so it didn't take much effort.

Taking the kettle filled with water from his waist, Ji Yuenian took a sip of water, looking a little tired, and said: "These nine simple paintings, called "The True Curse of Sloughing Off Ghosts", were made by me more than three thousand years ago. Even ordinary people who have never ignited inner fire can absorb the true secrets of the ghost path that have been learned through cultivation. They can absorb the yin energy between heaven and earth and infuse their bodies, turning them into monsters that are half human and half ghost. If they are cultivated to the deepest level, they can become The soul was completely soaked with Yin Qi and turned into a complete ghost."

Bi Lin looked at the nine pictures on the muddy ground and said blankly: "More than three thousand years ago..."

"The rules of the state and heaven are different from those of the fate world. You don't need to be too surprised." Ji Yuenian shook his head and pointed at the paintings with a tree branch. "You are the body of a snake monster. There are many differences from the human acupoints. After I made some temporary modifications, and this "The True Curse for Escape from Ghosts" can be regarded as tailor-made for you."

Bi Linkan came back to her senses, her eyes were a little excited, and she said: "I will definitely practice well, please don't worry, young master."

Ji Yuenian nodded and said no more. Instead, he turned back to the cave and found a relatively clean place to sit down.

There was no sun or moon in the mountain, and dozens of days had passed in the blink of an eye. Except for taking Ji Yuenian down the mountain to pick wild fruits, the green-scaled giant snake spent the rest of the time practicing the "True Mantra for Slaughtering Ghosts" outside the cave.

As time passed, the spiritual energy contained in his body was gradually stimulated, and the essence of the moonlight at night was absorbed into the yin energy through the "True Mantra for Slaughtering Ghosts".

Because there are three moons in this world, the speed at which Yin Qi penetrates the body was somewhat beyond Ji Yuenian's expectation.

Midday on the moon.

The bright white moonlight shines on the mountain, and the appearance of the giant green-scaled snake has undergone extremely strange changes compared to dozens of days ago.

Its head covered with dark green scales grew out of two ferocious giant horns that were several feet in diameter and about ten feet long. They were covered with sharp gray barbs, emitting a frightening cold light under the moonlight. .

Its ice-blue pupils were also dipped in dark red blood, and the original blue luster had been completely eroded, leaving not even half of it left.When the huge snake tail swung, it no longer made a golden and iron-like vibration like before, but became silent, with strands of gray and dark energy wrapped around it, almost completely blending into the night.

Ji Yuenian walked out of the cave, looked down at the giant jade-scaled snake that had changed its appearance, and said: "Sure enough, it is a creature that is born with spiritual power. In such a short period of time, it was able to absorb a huge amount of moonlight yin energy, and almost completely transformed it." Became a ghost."

The green-scaled giant snake raised its head, its dark red pupils trembled slightly, and said hoarsely: "If the psychic wolf king appears in front of me again at this time, although I may not be his opponent, I will already be more or less qualified. The power of resistance.”

Ji Yuenian walked up to it with a branch, nodded and said: "Although it is in the realm of virtual fire, it does not use the illusory inner fire to cast mysterious spells, it just relies on brute force. If If you practice for some more time and become proficient in the ghost magic in the "True Spell of Ghost Slaughter", the psychic wolf king will never be your enemy."

Hearing this, Bi Lin couldn't help but feel a little excited. His tail with gray barbs swung back and forth subconsciously, silently smashing many extremely hard rocks: "Young Master, if the injury to your left leg is serious, Only the 'Tongmai Pill' can cure it, so how about we just rush in and kill him?"

Ji Yuenian lowered his gaze, glanced at his left leg, and his expression became slightly colder.

During these days, no matter how I ate, the spiritual energy in those wild fruits and clear water could no longer be absorbed by me.

Although most of the broken muscles and bones have been restored, the leg bone was completely broken above the knee. Although those spiritual energy machines can restore the injured muscles and bones, they cannot rejoin the broken leg bones. At this point it is no longer useful.

"Of course we have to go to Yungu Imperial City, but we can't break in so blatantly," Ji Yuenian raised his head and looked at the bright lights in the distance. It was the center of Xianqi Yinggu, where the Jiang clan's Yun Where Gu Huang City is located, "Although you have some cultivation, there are not a few warriors in the Jiang clan. If they attack in groups, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand it for long with your meager ghost cultivation."

Bi Lin's eyes were slightly disappointed and she said, "Then what should we do?"

Ji Yueliang said in a young voice: "Send me outside the mountains and forests, to the edge of the Jiang clan, and then hide in the mountains and forests to practice the "True Mantra for Slaughtering Ghosts", and I will go and get the Pulse Opening Pill on my own."

Bi Lin hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the doubt in her heart: "Young Master, with your incredible magical power, why haven't you practiced any mysterious spells?"

Ji Yuenian shook his head and said: "The technique I practice is extremely mysterious. It requires three major acupoints, 36 acupoints and all four limbs to be unobstructed before I can barely try it. But now my leg bones are not connected and my meridians are blocked. There is no difference at all from ordinary people.”

Hearing this, his dark red eyes rolled. Thinking that he had memorized those nine pictures, he couldn't help but have extremely terrifying thoughts deep in his mind.

At this time, Ji Yuenian happened to walk to the edge of the cave leaning on a branch, looking at Yungu Imperial City in the distance, leaving his back to Bi Lin.

Bi Lin breathed out words from time to time, and the dark yin energy on the two ghost horns formed a translucent vortex, and a fierce struggle was going on in her heart.

There is a method in the "True Curse of Transforming Ghosts" that can swallow the flesh and blood of living beings to strengthen one's body. Bi Lin stared at the white-robed boy who was just like a mortal, and could not control the smell of saliva left at the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, under the bright white moonlight, the young man in white robe turned around and looked at Bi Lin with a pair of cold eyes.

The gaze was extremely cold and indifferent, as if coming from an unreachable heavenly god looking down at the ants in the mud. It made the Yin Qi all over Bi Lin's body tremble crazily, and even his soul felt a little broken!

The snake with huge green scales could not help but tremble. Ever since it met Ji Yuenian, it had never seen Ji Yuenian show such a terrifying look!

It has an extremely terrifying premonition. If it looks at itself like this for just a moment longer, its soul will completely collapse and never exist in the world again!
In a daze, I don't know how long it took, Bi Lin finally came back to his senses, and subconsciously looked at it, but saw that the white-robed boy's eyes were still ordinary, and everything just now seemed to be just an illusion.

"Little...Little Master..."

Bi Lin felt a little guilty and did not dare to look at Ji Yuenian, so she slightly turned the huge snake head away.

The young man in white robe did not comment, turned around and walked into the cave, saying: "Let's rest for the night and go to Yungu Imperial City tomorrow."

"I know."

Bi Lin nodded hurriedly, looking at the back of the white-robed boy, her soul trembling slightly, and there was still some lingering fear in her eyes.
