When these words came out of his mouth, Wu Jie was shocked and subconsciously asked: "Who are you?".
But just because of this distraction, there was a flaw in his moves. Du Ruo seized the opportunity and slapped him hard on the face, making him dizzy.
Before he could recover, Du Ruo struck out one after another mercilessly, each move aimed at the vital point.
Wu Jie could no longer resist and was hit one after another. He was beaten so hard that he staggered back until he reached the cliff at the edge of the mountain.
Du Ruo had no intention of stopping and continued to attack fiercely. Finally, he punched him in the heart so hard that he almost lost his breath and fell from the top of the mountain like a kite with a broken string.
After punching Wu Jie away, Du Ruo remained expressionless, as if he didn't take it to heart at all. She didn't chase him to see how Wu Jie fell off the cliff, but just stood there in deep thought, with a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.
"This boy from the Wu family actually has the peak of acquired cultivation. It seems that his quest for immortality has really achieved some results! If I hadn't been able to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth to supplement my skills with the realm of soul, I'm afraid I really wouldn't be able to defeat him! ...No! He
I'm afraid that his master will soon find out about this death and come looking for him... We can't delay it any longer! Even if the formation hasn't been completed yet, we must take action in advance!"
She stood for a while, thought carefully, then nodded coldly, turned around and went down the mountain.
With the strength of her feet, she returned to her home in the town in just a moment.
Du Yu was asking Wu Cheng to help with massage therapy at Wu's Pharmacy next door. Lin Lushan was the only one at home at the moment. Seeing Du Ruo come back, he was happy but also a little confused, and asked: "Third sister, why did you come back so early today?"
"I don't feel very well and want to go to bed early. Don't call me for dinner tonight." Du Ruo said coldly and walked towards his room.
"Where is fourth brother? Didn't he go to find you?"
"I didn't meet him." Du Ruo returned to the room and closed the door heavily, "I'm going to rest, don't disturb me!"
Lin Lushan stood outside the door, puzzled.
"The fourth brother obviously went to find the third sister, why didn't he meet her?"
He went to the drug store to ask again and learned that Wu Jie had not returned.
"Where did Fourth Brother go?"
The confused little nerd asked several people in the town for questioning, only to learn that Wu Jie had indeed left the battle in the direction of Sanshanguan Rabbit Ridge.
"What happened? The fourth brother obviously went to look for the third sister, but the third sister said she didn't meet him...and why did he never come back? Can such a living person get lost?"
Of course he would not know that Wu Jie had now entered the world of the Book of Heaven.
When Du Ruo knocked him off the cliff, he knew that it was a critical moment of life and death. He didn't care about the possibility of leaking the secret, so he urgently activated the World of Heavenly Book and got into it.
But his injuries were too serious. As soon as he entered the world of the Book of Heaven, he fell to the ground and fell unconscious.
He didn't know how long it took before he woke up leisurely and found himself lying in the big cauldron again. The pot was full of emerald green ginseng juice, which was boiling slightly and exuding a rich fragrance.
After checking his body a little, he found that except for the slight pain in his chest, there was nothing serious. The injuries he had suffered before were almost completely healed.
"Master, you made a mistake this time!" Jasmine, who was looking after the fire under the cauldron, saw that he was awake. She shook her head and sighed, "What kind of skills did that woman practice? She was simply given to someone.
Taken away!"
"Seize the body?" Wu Jie, who had read some fairy tale novels before time travel, was no stranger to this term and asked quickly, "You mean, Du Ruo's body is indeed not her own, but another soul?"
"That's right. And if I guessed correctly, that soul should be the 'Sanshan Taoist' you mentioned, Master."
Wu Jie, who had already guessed something during the battle, lowered his head and recalled Du Ruo's words and deeds during this period, and felt that there were more and more doubts. Especially during this meeting, she seemed to be a completely different person, both in terms of personality and
My habits have completely changed.
There seems to be no other possibility other than being taken over by a demon.
Anger gradually arose in his heart, like heat filling his chest, and like a ball of flame, burning his heart with a dull pain.
"But wasn't Taoist Sanshan captured by the Yulong Sect?" After a while, he recalled the battle between gods he had witnessed with his own eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "I saw him captured with my own eyes."
"There are so many secrets in the Immortal family that can split souls. He may have left a trace of the split soul somewhere, and then your friend foolishly thought that he had met an immortal, and practiced some kind of skill according to the instructions of this split soul.
Method - that kind of skill seems to be effective very quickly, but in fact it will weaken the connection between the soul and the body. In the end, her own soul will naturally leave the body and be taken away by the opponent easily - it is simply
He just delivered it to his door."
Jasmine was obviously very familiar with these tricks, and added: "I remember that one of the senior brothers in our sect was good at dividing souls. I don't know how many souls he divided. They were either hidden in rings, hidden in ancient jade, or hidden in ancient jade.
In the old book, he specifically deceived those who wanted to become immortals to practice according to his instructions. Those people practiced and practiced, and their skills became deeper and deeper, and their realms became higher and higher..."
"Every one of them thought they had picked up a huge bargain, but in the end it was all in vain. Once their cultivation reaches a certain level, the ghost who has gained their full trust will guide them to a certain place to 'hunt for treasure'
. As a result, he naturally fell into the hands of that senior brother, and either he made elixirs to enhance his skills, or he made his clones to overcome tribulations... He relied on this method to catch up, and later became the only one in the sect.
The masters who are inferior to you, master, are even getting closer to you..."
"Oh? What happened to him later? Did he become a great man?"
"How is it possible! Master, he was cast to death by a spell, and all his souls were destroyed together, completely dead." Jasmine said with a joking smile, "Master, how could you tolerate a disciple growing up to threaten you? He
The higher your cultivation level, the closer you are to death... Hey, this is so stupid!"
Wu Jie sighed, having nothing to say about the miserable ecological situation of the evil monks.
He was silent for a while, then turned the topic back to Du Ruo's situation, asking Jasmine if there was any possibility of restoring Du Ruo.
The answer is frustrating, but also reasonable: since Taoist Sanshan succeeded in seizing the body, the first thing he must do is to eliminate Du Ruo's soul to avoid competing with him for the body.
Since Taoist Sanshan has been able to fight Wu Jie so fiercely, Du Ruo's soul has naturally been wiped out long ago...
"The third child... just died like this?" Wu Jie was lying in the slightly boiling ginseng juice, looking blankly at the gray clouds of chaos above his head, feeling nothing but anger and misery in his heart.
My best friend since childhood was killed like this, without any sound...
"Who asked her to send it to her door by herself? Master, you often warned your disciples back then: Pies do not fall from the sky, only discus fall! Instead of thinking about how to get the benefits, it is better to think about how to avoid it first and be more practical."
Wu Jie nodded, his expression a little more fierce: "Judging from the situation of this fight, Taoist Sanshan is not very strong. Jasmine, what do you think if I fight him again?"
Chances of winning?”
"At least eight points." Jasmine nodded firmly, "Master, you didn't attack hard enough this time, that's why you suffered such a big loss. You are a real peak acquired body, he just used his strength to hold it up.
Even if his soul level is high and he can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth to replenish his energy, he cannot make his body as strong as yours."
"If you confront him head-on from the beginning and trade injuries for injuries, he will probably not be able to wear you down!" Jasmine said and couldn't help but sigh, "Master, if you can ignite the Pure Yang True Fire, you won't even need to hit him directly.
, if a real fire burns up, the remnant soul like him will be wiped out in a blink of an eye!"
Wu Jie took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
Since there is a chance of winning, even if he does not have the Pure Yang True Fire, he will still find Taoist Sanshan to fight again!
"Master, are you still planning to fight him? What's the benefit of that! It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. After all, he will have at least a hundred years of good life after taking his body. Why don't you take revenge on him after you succeed in cultivation? Then you can just cramp and peel off your skin.
Why do you need to take risks now?" Jasmine hurriedly advised, "Safety comes first, and those who live longer will have the last laugh!"
Wu Jie smiled coldly and suddenly asked: "What's going on with those statues?"
Jasmine hesitated for a moment, then sighed with a wry smile.
"Master, you can see it all..."
In fact, Wu Jie didn't see anything special, but according to common sense, after Sanshan Taoist took away Du Ruo, it seemed that he should find a place to retreat in order to recover his skills as soon as possible. As a result, instead of hiding, he was active in the town all day long.
, this is really suspicious!
Wu Jie imagined such a scene in his mind——
[Di Renjie: Yuanfang, what do you think? 】
[Li Yuanfang: Sir, I thought there must be a big conspiracy in this! 】
"I don't actually understand those statues very well, but I can roughly tell the flow of energy around the statues - it's probably some kind of sacrificial circle or something like that." Now that Wu Jie saw the problem, Jasmine also
He no longer hid it, "If my guess is correct, Sanshan Taoist probably wants to sacrifice the entire town to the devil or something in exchange for a quick recovery. We also have similar practices, but Master, you were
I have been warning everyone not to use it, saying, 'Devils are all greedy things, just like a pile of wet shit that cannot be washed clean if it gets on your clothes.'"
"But he has no choice now, right? Maybe he just took this path."
"Master, you are right. He relied on a ray of remnant soul to seize his body, and he is in urgent need of a lot of soul power to repair his soul. But Du Ruo's body has not yet entered the Tao, and he has no magic power at all. He can neither cultivate himself nor absorb other people's souls.
arrived, so I had to use the power of the devil..."
"Then, now I have a reason to fight him again."
"Actually, it's not necessarily true...if your relatives and friends in the mortal world die, just die. It's time to cut off the worldly ties and concentrate on practicing Taoism. In the past, there were people who killed their wives with their own hands in order to seek Taoism..." Jasmine muttered in a low voice, obviously
I strongly disagree with Wu Jie's idea.
Wu Jie shook his head and said seriously: "Jasmine, the gods have their own principles for doing things, and I have mine. If you want to follow me in seeking Taoism and cultivating immortality, you have to change your past ideas, do you understand?"
"Disciple obeys the order..."
Jasmine responded feebly, with helplessness written all over her face.
