Liu Ying smiled happily, as if she hadn't been so happy for a long time. The smile on her face made her look more like a young girl than an old monster that had been sleeping for 30,000 years.
Li Tian "..."
His face turned dark, and now he was like a grandson.
"Don't make trouble. If nothing happens, I'm still in a hurry to finish the task and go back. My friends are still waiting for me. They will worry if it takes too long."
He could tell that Liu Ying had no ill intentions towards him. He seemed to have been here for a long time and just wanted to find someone to joke with and chat with.
But as soon as Li Tian finished speaking, Liu Ying opposite him glanced at him with a strange look.
"Do you have any friends?"
Li Tian was stunned, didn't anyone in the past have friends?
"Of course, I have a sworn brother. You see, I'm still injured. If I go back too late, he will probably look for me everywhere."
As for Ergou, he simply ignored him. Ergou was just a dog, and he was a dog who wanted to usurp the throne all day long!
Liuying smiled slightly and nodded.
"I see, I thought you were also a person who wanted immortality and didn't want to be implicated in karma. That's good, at least you won't be alone in those hundred years."
Li Tian frowned slightly, not really understanding what the other party said, what does it mean to seek immortality and not want to be implicated in karma?
This is the difference in vision. The most common things in Liu Ying's eyes may be something he has never been able to touch in his life.
"Um...aunt, I don't quite understand what you just said. Everyone wants to live forever, but what does it have to do with being friends with me?"
Liu Ying slowly put away her smile, and then took a deep look at Li Tian.
"Didn't your master tell you about the compass?"
"Master? Are you talking about the previous biographer? That was my grandfather. He passed away when I was a child. I only got the compass a few months ago, so I don't know much about it."
To put it this way, he really didn't understand the characteristics of the compass very well. He only understood a few words from the letters left by his grandfather and his own research.
It turns out that the compass has many really important secrets!
"You have come to the right place today, because apart from me, no one in this world knows the real secret of this compass. Come on, let's change places to drink tea and chat slowly."
The next moment, Su Yi Liuying just waved her hand, and the scenery in front of Li Tian was instantly overturned. Just now, the two of them were still in the majestic pavilion. At this moment, they had arrived at the towering stone in the mansion.
Under the tree.
Although the trees are dense, the ground is surprisingly clean, with not a single fallen leaf.
There is a stone table and two stone benches under the tree, and a complete set of tea sets has been placed on the stone table, and there are even two cups of hot tea that look like they have just been poured.
"Sit down, you're welcome."
Liu Ying smiled and waved, then sat down on the stone bench first, picked up one of the cups of hot tea, and took a sip.
Li Tian's heart was already in turmoil at this time. When had he ever seen such a big scene?
I just took a set of operations, maybe I can’t even do it in the extraordinary state? What kind of state is it, supreme?
He had long known that the Liuying in front of him was the Supreme Liuying written in the biography, but he didn't know how high the Supreme was. He was afraid it was above the extraordinary realm!
At this moment, Li Tian heard a hissing sound above his head. Suddenly he seemed to have thought of something and looked up in horror.
A huge green python's head was less than a few meters away from him. The green python stared straight at him with its round eyes.
Li Tian was so frightened that his legs softened and he sat down on the ground.
The giant python swallowed the blood-red snake letter and looked at the human in front of him curiously, as if looking at some rare treasure.
The python was huge. Li Tian looked at the huge pupils and felt a chill all over his body. His small body was not as big as one of the other's scales. It was not enough for the big brother python to stuff his teeth, right?
"You little scoundrel, you scared my guest. I don't have any tea for you today. Go play somewhere else."
Seeing Li Tian slumped on the ground, Liu Ying found it funny and waved her hand to let the giant python disperse.
After receiving the order, the giant python reluctantly looked at Li Tian again, and finally spit out the snake letter and licked his face before leaving, and then left with satisfaction and returned to the canopy of the tree again.
Li Tian felt the stinking saliva on his face. He wanted to cry but couldn't. He was no longer clean! His first kiss was given to a smelly snake!
"It's just that it hasn't seen humans for a long time, and it's just excited to see you. Come on, come on, the tea is getting cold, so stop sitting on the ground."
Liu Ying seemed to be holding back a smile, but she didn't let herself laugh out loud. After all, she was a senior and she always had to maintain a certain degree of dignity!
Li Tian raised his sleeves and wiped the remaining saliva from his face, then sat down on the stone bench in embarrassment.
"Your pet is... quite hospitable."
Then he picked up another cup of tea on the table, imitating Liu Ying's behavior just now, and took a sip.
Suddenly a warm current filled his whole body, as if it directly washed away all his previous fatigue. It was not only physical fatigue, but also a kind of spiritual cleansing.
He couldn't even feel the pain from his wound.
As if he didn't believe in evil, he directly raised his hand and pulled off the bandage wrapped around his chest. The wound had indeed recovered. The threads that originally fixed the wound had all leaked out, leaving only a long centipede-shaped scar on his chest.
"My dear! Auntie, what kind of tea is this? Can it actually heal injuries?"
He reached out and touched the scar again, and sure enough, there was no feeling at all, just like before he was injured.
Liu Ying seemed to know that Li Tian would be so surprised, so she just smiled lightly.
"Little Doyle~"
"How's it going? Are you interested in staying here for a while now?"
"I have a lot of good things here. Rather than giving someone else a favor later, I'd better take advantage of you first."
Hearing that Liu Ying wanted to keep him for a while, Li Tian touched the tip of his nose and immediately put back his surprised expression.
"Ahem, next time, my friend is still waiting for me. Grandma, can you tell me about the compass first?"
Liu Ying was not surprised by Li Tian's reaction and just shook her head slightly.
"Oh~ there are so many people squeezing their heads to get in, but you just want to leave, that's all, it's up to you."
"Then let me tell you about your world-jumping compass first."
"Since you have already practiced cultivation, you must know what a curse is, right? Don't tell me that you don't even know what a curse is."
Upon hearing the curse, Li Tian's eyes lit up and he immediately answered.
"I know about cursed objects. Those things cultivated by practitioners, including weapons and charms, are all considered cursed objects."
Liu Ying chuckled and continued.
"That's right, but the form of a cursed object is not just a thing, or object, it may even be a living thing, or... a world! The giant python you just saw, it is actually my cursed object
The curse spirit."
Li Tian was immediately shocked and immediately raised his head to look at the giant cyan python in the clouds.
"This... is incredible!"
This was completely beyond his imagination.
"This is nothing, your compass, but it was known as the number one cursed object in our time."
"Your compass inherently represents a world."
"Don't be surprised yet, wait until I finish."
Liu Ying raised her hand and directly interrupted the spell casting, causing Li Tian who was about to be surprised to suppress his expression.
"Remember the cause and effect I just mentioned to you, right?"
"Causation is a very wonderful thing in the rules of the world. As long as you participate in the occurrence of something and change the result or direction of that thing, you will be involved in cause and effect."
"Especially you biographers, you are contaminated by the cause and effect of two worlds."
"Although you are only in this world, this world will give you extra karma because of the world of your compass!"
"In our time, biographers did not live long, and in the end most of them were burned by karma and did not end well."
"Only a small number of people can live a few more years if they do not enter the mortal world and are not involved in cause and effect."
"This is also the reason why I thought you didn't pursue immortality when I heard you say you had friends."
"You told me that you have sworn brothers, right? Then the cause and effect of the two of you are already firmly tied together. If he becomes a very evil person or a peerless powerful man in the future, then this cause and effect will
, you can’t afford it!”
"And the most important point is, for example, if someone doesn't have to die, but they die because of your appearance or because of your actions, this kind of tainted cause and effect of life and death is the most deadly!"
Li Tian "..."
Damn! Li Tian just wanted to scold his mother at this moment, and he was right!
He suddenly remembered the letter his old man left for him, saying that being a biographer is a lonely journey. It was not until this moment that he understood the true meaning of the old man's words!
Damn, can’t this old man speak clearly? He has to pretend to be literary!
Seeing that Li Tian's face suddenly turned as ugly as if he had eaten shit, Liu Ying knew that she had been right.
"It's over, it's over, it seems someone is waiting to die~"
Her greatest pleasure in life was watching plays. The more embarrassed others were, the happier she would be.
Li Tian "..."
"Auntie, you have to help me, I am your grandson!"
Li Tian immediately stopped hesitating and rushed over to hug his thigh, but failed. It wasn't that Liu Ying had dodged, but that he couldn't touch him at all!
Liu Ying's body, which looked no different from a normal person, turned out to be like a ghost, which could only be seen but not touched!
"I told you, I'm just a remnant soul."
Liu Ying shook her head helplessly, then picked up the cup on the table and took another sip of tea.
"Then why can you still drink tea?"
Looking at Liu Ying drinking tea, Li Tian asked in confusion, "It doesn't make sense that you can drink tea but not touch her?"
Liu Ying sighed, raised the cup in her hand, and threw it towards Li Tian, but when she was about to hit Li Tian's face, it dissipated in the air.
"Because the tea I drank is also fake, only your cup is real."
"Cause and effect are the rules of this world. If you want to live forever, this is a hurdle you can never escape. I can't help you."
Seeing that the other party was not busy with him, Li Tian sat back on his stool again. He thought about it carefully, then turned around and continued to ask Liu Ying.
"Then can I give this compass to someone else? Doesn't it mean that I don't have to be involved in the cause and effect of the two worlds?"
Liu Ying immediately rolled her eyes at him.
"Do you think you are a cabbage? Since the compass has identified you, it cannot be used by anyone else before you die. But you don't have to worry too much. You are not going to die tomorrow. You still have dozens of people left.
As for the years of time, it’s just that you can’t step into the transcendent world. As long as you don’t come into contact with immortality, the karma of cause and effect will not occur.”
When she finished speaking, Li Tian's expression suddenly dimmed, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.
Yes, he only needs to worry about things when he reaches the transcendent realm. Now he has nothing to worry about. He doesn't even have the talent for cultivation, so he still needs a karma to take his life?
Seeing Li Tian's expression, Liu Ying's expression froze and she didn't understand what he meant.
"What's wrong? You thought about it so quickly?"
He thought Li Tian was taking life and death lightly.
Li Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He hesitated to speak, but finally said it.
"I don't have to worry about the karma of cause and effect at all, because... I don't have the talent for cultivation at all, and I will never reach the transcendent realm in this life."
Hearing this, Liu Ying's expression became strange again.
"Are you kidding me? The compass has chosen you, but you have no talent for cultivation?"
The way she looked at Li Tian seemed to be looking at a big fool.
"What do you mean? I should have the talent for cultivation?"
Li Tian stood up in disbelief. Liu Ying's words were really shocking!
"But why, I couldn't break through in two months? Also, when I entered the academy, I didn't test that I had any talent for cultivation."
Compared with the previous academy test, he now believes more in what Liu Ying said. At least, the person in front of him brought him a glimmer of hope!
Even if his cultivation base has not improved in the past two months, it may be that he did not use the right method? Or is it because of some other reasons?
Hearing Li Tian's answer, Liu Ying also had doubts in his eyes, so he waved to Li Tian.
"Come forward."
Li Tian hurriedly followed the instructions and ran to Liu Ying, looking forward to what she would do next.
Are you trying to enlighten him? Or are you trying to open up his Ren and Du meridians? Then he will soar to the sky from then on?
He quickly rejected these unrealistic ideas. For him now, being able to continue practicing is the greatest gift from God!
Then Liuying stretched out her long green jade fingers and slowly placed them in front of Li Tian's forehead.
Although he couldn't touch the entity, Li Tian still clearly felt a chill on his forehead.
Not long after, Liu Ying slowly withdrew her hand.
"You can't practice, not because you don't have the talent to practice, but..."
