Celestial being

"For this reason, I slaughtered millions of mortals, used the power of their souls as firewood, collected thousands of monks' souls to build an illusion, and cut off a part of my own soul as the core. I just managed to construct this dream of all sentient beings." Before Yuan Ming could speak, Master Shura continued, lamenting his difficulty.

However, Yuan Ming's hair stood on end when he heard this. Even after he had experienced so much blood on his journey to immortality, he was still frightened by Master Shura's bloody methods.

"Don't think that my methods are cruel. As the saying goes, all living beings suffer in the different paths of immortality and mortal life. In fact, the monks who were killed by me were still a little resentful at first, but when they found that the dreams of living beings can fulfill all their wishes, they all followed them. As a god, I am grateful to me for including them in the formation more than once. What's more, if I hadn't done anything, now three thousand years have passed, they would have turned into a handful of loess, but they can stay in the dreams of all living beings, and they are still alive to this day. , if you want, I can even call a few people to let you hear their feelings." Master Shura raised his hand nonchalantly, as if he was about to recruit people.

"Senior, no need. I know that your methods are powerful, and they may be truly convinced, but I want to ask you, no matter how beautiful the dreams of these monks are, when millions of mortal souls are exhausted, will you destroy them? Also used as firewood? What's more, you control this place, and their life and death are just a matter of your thoughts. Such immortality, such a life, is it really happy? Is it really free?" Yuan Ming asked.

"Someone asked me about what you said a few years ago, but after enjoying hundreds of years of sweet dreams, he had no other thoughts. You are a genius, you have adventures at a young age, and you have entered into marriage. Dan, to embark on a higher and further road. But for most people, their lives are as high as the sky when it comes to building foundations and even refining qi. They spend most of their lives practicing hard and have no time to enjoy at all. . Thousands of years of sweet dreams and hundreds of years of yellow beams, which one is real and which one is an illusion, what is the difference? I still feel at ease. I have wine today and I am drunk now. It is a pleasure." Master Shura shook his head and said.

Yuan Ming was silent, and found that he could not find the words to refute Master Shura. He also understood that for those monks who were already trapped in the dreams of all living beings, it might be cruel to rashly bring them back to reality. In the end, it was cruel. He could only sigh quietly and say no more words.

"Actually, for you, failure in this trial I set may be better than success."

"After all, if I succeed, I can only obtain the magic weapons and skills that I have accumulated and continue to struggle in the cruel world. But if I fail, I can enjoy peace in the dreams of all living beings."

"Especially you. There are so many Yuanying Stage monks out there who want to kill you. If you go out, it may not be safe to stay here." Master Shura was good at tempting, and his words were full of bewitching.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. However, what I am facing is not a certain death situation. What's more, if I cannot control my own destiny and indulge in false dreams, to me, this is just a whitewashed death." Yuan Ming shook his head firmly and said.

"It's true and false, it seems like illusion and seems real, life seems like a dream, how can you enjoy it? And you are so sure that you are not in a dream now? Why are you so obsessed with reality or falsehood?" Master Shura said regretfully.

"I would like to ask you, since you think the dream of all living beings is so beautiful, why does your main soul not live here? Instead, it continues to take risks to find opportunities to go overseas?" Yuan Ming changed the topic and asked.

Master Shura looked at Yuan Ming blankly, suddenly raised his finger and pointed at him, and laughed:

"Yes, yes! Then why didn't I come in? Hahaha, after all, I stayed in the dream for a long time and wanted to deceive others, but in the end I even deceived myself."

"If we monks don't have the heart to compete with heaven, how can we be different from ordinary people? What is fake will always be fake and will never become true. Just like this tea, its fragrance is so mellow that it cannot enter my nose or mouth. It’s just self-deception.”

Having said that, Master Shura waved his sleeve and the tea on the table disappeared instantly.

At this moment, Yuan Ming suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "Senior Shura, I wonder if the trials of others have ended. Have they all passed?"

Master Shura glanced at him and smiled narrowly: "Are you worried about your lover? You two have the same thought, but you are so envious!"

Yuan Ming smiled awkwardly and suddenly understood the meaning of Master Shura's words, and hurriedly said: "Senior, what do you mean, she has already met you?"

Master Shura nodded and pointed to a picture scroll next to the two of them.

Everything on the scroll was constantly changing. Yuan Ming took a closer look and saw Xiying, dressed in black, sitting cross-legged in a secret room, continuously absorbing the black mist from the Soul Calming Pot in front of him. It seemed that Practicing.

"Speaking of which, she was much faster than you. She even solved the trial I set in just one chance. It made me a little curious, so I came out to meet her in person. The result was just After a few words, she asked about your situation. After learning that you were fine, she even offered to give up the reward and asked me to promise her that if you failed the trial, I would not trap you in the dream of all living beings. It's to send him out of the cave." Master Shura said slowly.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming felt warm in his heart and immediately said: "Senior Shura, since I successfully passed the trial, her words will not count. Please give her her reward again. If it is against the rules, I will That reward will be cancelled."

"Hey, why do you young people think that I am a bad person? It's just a trivial matter, so why should you sacrifice your own rewards?" Master Shura seemed to be dissatisfied and knocked on the table.

Yuan Ming coughed twice guiltily, not daring to tell his true thoughts.

Master Shura didn't seem to care much about this. Seeing that Yuan Ming had no reaction, he continued.

"Okay, let's stop talking here. As the only person who can let me show up in person, I allow you to proactively propose the type of reward you need, whether it is a magic weapon or a skill. If you don't want anything in particular, Then it’s up to me to choose the one that suits you.”

"It all depends on the seniors." Yuan Ming said immediately without thinking.

Master Shura seemed to have expected that he would say this. With a little finger, a stream of light instantly flew into Yuan Ming's body.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Ming immediately noticed that there was a secret method in his mind called "Splitting Soul and Combining Pills".

"I see that you are a dual cultivator of magic and soul, so this secret method is the most suitable. It should be noted that the magic cultivator needs to fuse his soul with the golden elixir before he can break through the elixir and become a baby. However, all magical powers in soul cultivation are in the soul. Among them, if you follow the conventional method to conceive a baby, you will inevitably lose all your abilities, and your strength will not be as strong as the monks in the pill formation stage." Master Shura said eloquently.

Yuan Ming was startled. After all, he had just entered the pill-forming stage and didn't know much about the process of forming a baby. He didn't expect that there was such a particular detail in it.

"According to senior's opinion, this "Soul-Splitting and Combining Pill Technique" can solve this problem?" Yuan Ming asked while distractedly checking the secret technique.

"This "Splitting Soul and Combining Pill Technique" can split one's own soul into two, and then integrate the split part of the soul into the golden elixir. In this way, one can retain one's soul cultivation without affecting one's own birth." Shura The Master said so.

Hearing this, Yuan Ming recalled Xi Cangqiong's secret soul-splitting technique, which was quite similar to the "Split Soul and Combined Pill Technique", except that the souls formed by the soul-splitting technique have independent consciousness. Once they develop and grow, they can easily cause hidden dangers. .

The split soul in the "Split Soul and Combined Pill Jue" is different. There are no hidden dangers. It is one and the same as the main soul. Only then can it be used to condense the Nascent Soul.

"Having said that, the "Soul-Splitting and Combining Pill Technique" is also extremely dangerous to perform. This technique is different from the ordinary soul-splitting method. It has to completely copy the seven emotions and six desires of the main soul, which is a hundred times more dangerous than the ordinary soul-splitting secret technique. Before I obtained this technique, many masters had become idiots because of practicing this technique. You need to be very careful before practicing it, and never use it lightly unless it is absolutely necessary." Master Shura warned again.

When Yuan Ming heard this, his expression was unmoved, but he was a little happy in his heart. He had already had a split soul by chance, and he had a lot of experience in split souls.

Moreover, every time he separates his soul, the heat flow of wish power in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron will be automatically repaired, which is much safer than other people practicing this technique.

However, Yuan Ming still showed a reluctant look on the surface: "Senior Shura, since this technique is so dangerous, does it make sense to use it as a reward? I am just interested in taking the path of soul cultivation, and I don't necessarily have to do it here. This road has gone too far, so let’s try another one.”

"Well, to tell you the truth, I do still have a lot of skills and treasures here, but with your strength in dual cultivation of magic and soul, I'm afraid even those in the pill formation stage will look down upon you, but those things in the Nascent Soul stage, you You can't break through the Nascent Soul but it's of no use. After all the calculations, this is the most suitable one for you." Master Shura was also a little helpless.

Seeing that Yuan Ming was still about to complain, he immediately added: "Of course, since I took it out, I won't let you suffer. The black key you got before is the key to the operation of my cave. Getting it is equivalent to I have obtained the entire cave, but it is a pity that you are not as strong as others and cannot keep it with you. In this way, I will give you another magic talisman. It can replace the black key and help you gain part of the control of the cave. It can also help you fight for Gain some advantages when using Lingbao.”

After saying that, he pointed his finger again, and a ray of blood disappeared into Yuan Ming's eyebrows. After a moment, it turned into a mark like a vertical eye pupil, which flashed twice and then disappeared.

"Ling Bao? Dare I ask, senior, what exactly is a Ling Bao?" Yuan Ming was very happy with the extra gains, but he still had some doubts about this "Ling Bao", so he simply asked.

"The so-called 'Lingbao' is a treasure that can be refined after the return to void stage. Compared with magic weapons, its biggest feature is that it awakens spiritual wisdom to a certain extent, so it is called a spiritual treasure. Of course, it is powerful. It is also very different from ordinary magic weapons." Master Shura explained.
