As far as the current situation is concerned, this may be the only place where Hong Juncheng cannot directly reach out.
He is now torn between Daxuan and Tunu. He still wants to maintain a relationship with Tunu, but he also doesn't want to completely break up with Daxuan.
He has Liang Gongping's soul, but he doesn't know if this soul can be repaired, so he doesn't want to give up Liang Yuyao's soul.
Xu Zhiqiong first hid the stone eye in the east courtyard, and then asked Niu Yuxian to guard the door. He sat silently in the bedroom, letting his body fall into a deep sleep, and his thoughts settled into the deepest part of his consciousness.
Climbing along the cliff to the bottom of the valley, Xu Zhiqiong slowly walked towards the thick fog.
In the thick fog, behind the barrier, a huge figure was pacing back and forth anxiously.
Outside the barrier, the magic circle left by Xu Zhiqiong is still there, but there are obvious signs of damage.
Xu Zhiqiong's original purpose of leaving this magic circle was to keep the monster in a sleeping state. As long as he woke up, Xu Zhiqiong would have a way to detect it immediately.
Now that I think about it, with Xu Zhiqiong's yin and yang cultivation, it would be too difficult to trap this suspected Qiongqi remnant soul with just a magic circle.
The monster snorted coldly: "Are you here?"
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "You are so brave. If I were you, I would pretend to be asleep, I would pretend not to know anything, and then you dare to scold me."
The monster sneered: "If I don't scold you, can you let me go?"
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head: "That's impossible, I will suck your energy dry and then let you sleep.
Now that my cultivation level is higher, I can suck faster than before, and I guarantee that you will be able to fall asleep in a blink of an eye, without feeling uncomfortable at all."
As soon as Xu Zhiqiong stretched out his hand, the monster shouted: "Wait a minute! If you suck me dry again, I will never wake up again."
"Are you serious about this?" Xu Zhiqiong raised his eyebrows, "Are you serious that you will never wake up again?"
After saying that, he was about to step forward to inhale the air again, when he suddenly felt the whole valley tremble, and gravel kept falling from both sides of the cliff.
The voice behind the barrier changed. It was no longer gloomy and low-pitched, but became much clearer. It sounded like a young man in his twenties.
"I rarely tell the truth, but what I said this time is true. If I fall into deep sleep completely, it will not be much different from death. In this case, it is better to die with you."
Is this going to be a dead end?
Xu Zhiqiong did not act rashly anymore. He was carefully assessing the monster's current state.
The monster moved its body behind the barrier and continued to speak in the voice of a young man: "To be honest, I have never treated you badly during these years in your body. You learned my techniques and got my breath.
Even the disciples from the evil realm can't do anything to you.
We have no grievances in the first place, and now it’s time for us to get back together and break up. You can see that I want to take your body. You can escape for a while, but not for a lifetime. It will be a matter of time before you fall into my hands.
So let’s just get the best of both worlds, you let me out of here, I won’t stay in your body, and you don’t have to guard against me in the future.”
Xu Zhiqiong was startled: "Let you out? How?"
"You were weak in the past, but now you use the power of imagery so purely. It shouldn't be difficult to open this barrier."
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "Teach me how to open it."
The monster was silent for a moment and said: "I really want to know how to open it, wouldn't I have gone out a long time ago?
Don't beat around the bush here. What I'm telling you is the truth. You can see my current situation. Even if I remove this barrier, I can't take away your body.
After I leave, I will leave you with my skills and my breath. Now that I don't pose much of a threat to you, why don't we just talk about it?"
Xu Zhiqiong sat in front of the barrier, smacked his lips and said, "I just can't bear to leave you."
The monster sighed and said: "Tell me, what else do you want from me? Do you want skills or cultivation?"
"I want it all!" Xu Zhiqiong's face beamed with joy.
"I now know a technique, graft it on another, and I have taught it to you. As for your cultivation, let me say that if you let me go, I will accept you as my disciple. From now on, you will be the founder of Qiongqi's evil path."
Xu Zhiqiong asked in surprise: "Are you really Qiongqi?"
"Who am I if I am not?"
"I mean, under what circumstances are you Qiongqi? Are you Qiongqi's remnant soul or Qiongqi's clone?"
"Hehehehe!" The monster laughed, "Are you looking down on me, or are you looking down on Yuduoxingxing?"
"how do I say this?"
"During the battle at Wang'an River, Yu Duoxingxu should have told you, right? Although he was injured at the time and lacked fighting strength, he was still among the strongest in Xingxu. If he were a remnant soul or a clone, he could kill him
Beat him half to death, but ask him how he can survive in the world with dignity?"
I don’t know if Master has any dignity or not. Anyway, after that battle, his self-confidence was shattered.
"You are not a remnant soul, are you a real soul?"
"Zhenghun?" The monster thought for a long time and said, "I don't know what you mean by Zhenghun, and I don't know which company it is called.
Since you have reached the third level, there are some things you should be able to bear, so I will tell you.
Do you know what a body outside of God is?"
"It should be similar to a clone, right?"
The monster sneered and said: "You are really weird. You have seen a body other than God, but you don't know what a body other than God is?"
Xu Zhiqiong has seen Taotie's outer body, but he really doesn't know the concept of divine outer body, which is really embarrassing.
The monster explained patiently: "The clone and the outer body are very different. The so-called clone is generated in the body world, and the outer body is generated in the outside world. Do you understand this?"
Xu Zhiqiong puffed up his chest and said, "I don't understand!"
The monster smiled bitterly: "The so-called gods and humans are divided into five realms, one outside the body, one realm of the body, one realm of soul, one realm of soul, and one realm of soul. Do you understand this?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "I can understand it quite well."
"It's good if you can understand. Let me first talk about the realm outside the body, whether it is gods or humans. There is a realm outside the body. This realm is closely related to people.
Mortals always like to talk about things outside the body, as if they are dispensable. In fact, there are things outside the body that are very important and can even determine life and death. However, the outside world of mortals is too small to perceive, let alone use."
"How small is the outer world of a mortal?"
"For a mortal without cultivation, the outer world of the body is so close to the skin that not even a hair can penetrate. In his own opinion, the outer world of the body is no different from the body world.
If you have cultivation, you also need to look at the Taoist sect and your character and rank.
Below the fourth rank, all the sects are similar. The main thing is to look at the rank. For the ninth rank cultivator, the outside of the body is close to the body, a little more than an inch.
At the eighth level, you can reach three inches, at the seventh level, you can reach one foot, at the sixth level, you can reach three feet, and at the fifth level, you can have five feet."
This number looks very familiar!
The monster said: "You can use your Taoist sect's pupil of sin to see the cultivation level below the fourth level. In fact, you can see the outside world."
So that’s it!
Using the pupil of sinful karma, you can see the clouds and mist surrounding a person's body, which is the so-called outer world of the body. From this, you can judge a person's cultivation level.
The monster added: "When you reach the fourth level, the outside world becomes invisible. That is to say, when you reach the so-called demigod level, the outside world will no longer be visible, and your pupil of sinful karma will no longer work."
It turns out that this is the reason why the Eye of Sinful Karma cannot see cultivation levels of fourth grade and above.
"How big is the outer world of the fourth level and above?"
The monster continued: "Up to the fourth level, the external body of different sects is very different. If it is the third level of killing, the external body can be cultivated to more than two feet, but if it is a third-level eunuch, the external body is still five feet, there is no change. If it is the third-level yin and yang
, the outside world may be ten feet away!"
Xu Zhiqiong was very interested in this: "What if it is a third-grade judge?"
The monster smiled and said: "You want to know? Let me out and I will tell you!"
Xu Zhiqiong frowned: "You just said these two words and you want me to let you out? You are so insincere."
"That makes sense, then I will tell you more. When you reach the level of cultivation above the ordinary world, there will be a connection between the body and the outside world. If you reach the first level of cultivation, the outside world will be driven by you. If you reach the level above, the body and the outside world will be driven by you.
The outside world will become a part of the body, that is, there is an extra layer of body outside the body, which is called the divine body!
The true nature of God cannot be seen, known, heard, or thought by mortals. The side of God that mortals can see is actually the other side of God.
If you peel off this layer of body, you can still retain a certain amount of combat power and a certain amount of mind. You have seen Taotie's outer body's methods, and his combat power is still above that of a star official."
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "The Taotie body is really powerful."
In Xu Zhiqiong's impression, Taotie's final battle ended in a draw with his master.
In the end, it was a lose-lose situation, but in fact, although Taotie's outer body also suffered heavy damage, it was better than the long-term coma of the master.
Even if he did not fully recover in the later stage, Taotie's outer body could still defeat the Bloody Star Lord. Not only was his combat power overwhelming, but his tactics were also very precise.
In the battle at Liangfen Garden, Taotie's outer body was defeated by the Shengke twins. At that time, Taotie's outer body was poisoned and consumed too much. It was about to be worn to death by the wheels of the battle, and only then did the Shengke brothers take advantage.
Xu Zhiqiong asked: "If the outer body is destroyed, can a new outer body be born?"
The monster said: "It is possible, but it requires cultivation. Above the first level, there are true gods, ungods, superior gods and subordinate gods.
Chi You, the leader of the army, is a follower of the gods. If his outer body is lost, he must work hard and slowly build it back up. If he is eager for success, he may fall back to the first level.
Zhurong, the god of fire, is the superior god. If the outer body is lost, you can immediately reshape it, but you must exercise some restraint. If it is lost frequently, you may have to fall back to the secondary god.
As for the True God and the Wei God, they have the same cultivation level and the same combat power. It only depends on their divinity. They don't care about the outer body that much.
Little brother, I am the outer body of True God Qiongqi, just an ordinary outer body. True God Qiongqi doesn’t care, so why should you care?
Let me out. Once I leave your body and find a place to live a good life, what's wrong with us going our separate ways?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "Are you Qiongqi's outer body?"
"Didn't I just say it? I'm not..." The monster pondered for a moment and asked incomprehensibly, "Why do you, a judge, know the underworld technique?"
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "You should be shocked!"
