Chapter 1357 Rules of Defeat
Yu Lingyao smiled slightly. This ancestor had practiced a secret technique countless years ago, which could sense the rules comprehended by others. However, this secret technique was a bit useless. It could only sense the rules comprehended by people who were at least one realm lower than oneself, and not all rules could be sensed.
Unless it was a rule that this ancestor had seen before, it could be sensed through this secret technique.
The rule of life is an extremely rare rule in the world of immortal cultivation. This ancestor dared to say that among the countless immortal cultivators in the entire Holy Moon Continent, there would never be more than five fingers who could comprehend this rule.
During a trip thousands of years ago, this ancestor once saw a little girl who comprehended the rule of life in the middle of the Holy Moon Continent. At that time, the little girl was only at the peak of the transformation of the spirit. It was because of this that this ancestor could sense the rules you practiced.
"Since you know that Xueying comprehended the rules of life, you should also know that once I use this magical power of "Snow Piao Bai Fang Hua", I am afraid that I will fall into the devil's way at my current level. The so-called life and death are actually just a matter of a thought." Lin Xueying said after pondering for a while.
"You are right. It shows that you have a very pure heart. One thought can make you a Buddha or a devil. The rules of life are divided into two directions. Especially in the early stage, it is easy to go to the path of [failure]. However, the power of rules is not good or bad. The so-called three thousand great ways all lead to the other shore. And since you have comprehended the rules of life, you should also know that the path of [failure] is not necessarily worse than the path of [life]. In terms of power alone, [failure] is far better than [life]." "Junior naturally knows, but too much is as bad as too little. Thoughts are born from the heart. The power of [failure] is indeed greater than [life], but the karma generated is enough to make juniors unable to reincarnate forever. The karma is so great that it may even exceed the path of demons, so please forgive me for not agreeing." After thinking for a while, Lin Xueying seemed to have made up her mind and spoke. Yuan Hong on the side was confused at this moment. He didn't understand what the two said at all. What did they mean? Yuan Hong knew that his master's wife had comprehended the rules of life. After the cultivators advanced to the stage of transformation, they could gradually comprehend the power of the rules of heaven and earth through meditation. In this process, what kind of rules can be comprehended is affected by various factors, such as a person's skills, mentality, and even the magical powers and secrets of cultivation. Yuan Hong only knew about it, but he didn't know what characteristics the rules of life had. Yu Lingyao didn't show disappointment when she heard this, but there was a bit of joy in her eyes. “I didn’t expect that you not only comprehended the rules of life, but also knew the two branches of it in detail. At the same time, you have a pure heart, so you don’t want to take the path of [failure]. This ancestor also appreciates this. The magical power of Snow Piaobai Fanghua is originally a very powerful magical power in the Piaoxue Immortal Art. If it is performed by someone who has not cultivated the power of the rules of life, although it can also exert the full power of this magical power, but the source of life will be defeated in an instant, turning into a dying old man, and the life span will be consumed by at least 90%. However, if it is performed by someone who has cultivated the rules of life, he can absorb the essence of life within a radius of a thousand miles, allowing this magical power to reach the peak of power, and... The caster does not need to worry about the backlash of the magic power. "
After a pause, Yu Lingyao continued: "Once the power of the rules of life is exerted, it is through the huge divine thoughts to resonate with the surrounding creatures and borrow their life essence. Although this method is also a way, the amount of life essence that can be collected will inevitably be greatly reduced. In this way, the power of Piaoxue Baifanghua will also be reduced by more than half, and it may not be enough to break the protective divine light of Yu Bingzi. "
"Then I can only say sorry. The rules of life that are defeated, forcibly absorbing the life essence of living beings, is no different from the devil. I dare not try it, and if I use it too much, I will be useless. Influencing the character of the younger generation, one day in the future, they may even lose their nature, turn into the master of the defeated world, and completely fall into the devil's way. " Seeing Lin Xueying's determination, Yu Lingyao seemed to feel that the time was ripe, and suddenly said: "If this ancestor gives the girl a [Gang Shen Pill], can the girl help this ancestor once?" "Gang Shen Pill?" Lin Xueying was slightly stunned, and then said: "Is it the Gang Shen Pill that can protect the immortal cultivator's soul and purify the soul? This is a seventh-level superior elixir, and it has been lost for many years. " "Yes, it is the Gang Shen Pill that the girl said. This Gang Shen Pill is also the ancestor's more than 3,000. Years ago, I got it from the remains of an ancient cultivator's cave. There were only three pills. Over the years, I have used two pills and there is one left. As long as the girl can help me this time, I will give her this pill of Gangshen Pill. I think the girl knows what this pill means to her, right? "
Lin Xueying hesitated at this moment. [Gangshen Pill] is definitely a legendary elixir. She also saw the record about it by chance. [Gangshen Pill] can purify the soul of the cultivator and reach a state of clarity and purity. This state is insignificant for most cultivators, but it is a godsend for Lin Xueying.
Because the rules of life she comprehended require people with pure souls to comprehend a higher state, and with this pill of Gangshen Pill, she will have more confidence in advancing to the fusion stage in the future.
But at the same time, she also understood that using the Snow Piao Bai Fanghua was pushing her one step towards the path of evil. This kind of magical power is addictive, just like taking drugs. In the secular world, money, power, and beauty can make mortals addicted and unable to extricate themselves. In the world of immortal cultivation, there are not many things that can make immortal cultivators addicted, and power is definitely the most important one.
The rules of life, unlike most rules, have two branches, namely the rules of defeat and the rules of life. Both of these rules are ranked at the top, which is what Yu Lingyao and Lin Xueying talked about before.
Once the rules of defeat are used, the life essence of the surrounding creatures will be plundered in an instant. As long as the realm is three major realms lower than it, it cannot resist. Once the life essence of the creatures is plundered, they will die in an instant. This is also the root of the word defeat.
Snow Piao Bai Fanghua may not feel anything in the ears of other cultivators, but Lin Xueying, who has comprehended the power of the rules of life, is very sensitive. The defeat here is also divided into defeating oneself and defeating the surrounding creatures of heaven and earth.
This magical power can also be used by ordinary immortal cultivators, but once it is used, regardless of whether the purpose is achieved or not, the life span will be insufficient and the person will die at any time.
This magical power is very similar to the magic of the demon disintegration method of the magic way, and it is even more cruel. Both are a kind of magical power that will perish together.
Of course, it is different for Lin Xueying who has comprehended the rules of life. She can use the power of rules to absorb the life essence of the surrounding creatures to use this magical power, but this involves how to absorb the life essence of the surrounding heaven and earth creatures?
Is it a path of defeat or a path of life? The path of defeat is simple and crude. Once it is used, it can be said that all creatures within a thousand miles are in ruins. The path of life is like letting many creatures sign a contract with her and voluntarily release some life essence for her to use. These released life essences will only make the creatures weak for a period of time, but will not really reduce their life span.
The former can bring the power of the magical power to the extreme. The disadvantage is naturally that it will cause countless creatures to fall and add boundless karma. The latter is just the opposite.
Therefore, even if Yu Lingyao took out the Gangshen Pill, Lin Xueying was still hesitant. After all, in her opinion, she was unwilling to kill Yu Bingzi and cause the lives of the people to be destroyed.
Yu Lingyao obviously saw her concerns.
"You don't need to worry about this. There is an ice forest valley tens of thousands of miles southeast of the Xuelin Icefield. The area of this valley is very large, more than a thousand miles in radius. In this valley grows a plant called Dudu Grass. In this way, the girl should have nothing to worry about, right?"
Dudu Grass?
Lin Xueying's face was full of surprise. This Dudu Grass sounded a bit ordinary, but it was the most poisonous thing in the world. It was also one of the main ingredients for refining one of the Ten Deadly Poisons [Poison Fairy Juice]. This [Poison Fairy Juice] can be called a rare poison in the world. It is rumored that even a real immortal will die on the spot if he takes this [Poison Fairy Juice].
The reason why the poisonous grass has the word "alone" in it is because wherever it grows, there will be no other creatures. The colorless and odorless poison gas it emits is enough to make most creatures stay away from it.
If there is such a place, even if Lin Xueying uses the Snow Piao Bai Fanghua once, although it will have some impact on her own character, killing so many poisonous grasses is also a meritorious deed. Moreover, with the help of the life essence of the poisonous grass, the magical power she uses, once hit, the poison enters the body, even if she does not die, there will be endless troubles in the future.
When Lin Xueying thought of this, she was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. It seems that the senior Yu Lingyao in front of her has been scheming to deal with Yu Bingzi.
And she obviously has grasped her various concerns and has already thought of a countermeasure.
But if she asked her to agree immediately, Lin Xueying was still a little hesitant. At the moment, it seems that it is okay to use the rule of defeat once, but she does not know whether Yu Lingyao is loyal or treacherous. If she helps the evil, it will be counterproductive.
Yu Lingyao is also a smart person, otherwise she would not have lived to this day, and she has also advanced to the Tribulation Crossing Stage. She saw Lin Xueying's concerns at a glance.
"You don't need to decide immediately. In this way, this ancestor will help you get rid of the harm of the fire poison, and then you can move around in the Xuehan Sect on your own. This ancestor will greet the Xuehan Sect's leader in advance. After you figure it out, it's not too late to reply to this ancestor. And this ancestor still says that he will never force you. If you finally decide to give up, then this ancestor will die with Yu Bingzi. Anyway, this cause and effect will end sooner or later."
"Thank you for understanding my difficulties." Although Lin Xueying sympathized with the woman in front of her, she would not agree without thinking, and decided to understand it before making a decision.
In this way, the two stayed in the Xuehan Sect. In order to avoid too much trouble, the Xuehan Sect's leader placed them in an inconspicuous house in the sect, and Lin Xueying had to receive Yu Lingyao's treatment in the Soul Condensing Cave most of the time.
Three months later, the fire poison in Lin Xueying's body was completely expelled and she recovered as before.
During this period, Lin Xueying and Yuan Hong also inquired from many sources. After recovering from their injuries, they went deep into several immortal cities around Beihan Divine Sect to secretly inquire about the affairs of the Jade Ice Ancestor.
The Jade Ice Patriarch was brutal by nature, and many of the core elders of the inner domain of the Northern Cold Divine Sect did not buy into his account. They were just afraid of his strength and did not dare to compete with him. However, most of the core elders of the inner domain traveled outside and did not return to the sect for many years. It can be seen that the popularity of the Jade Ice Patriarch in the sect was really disappointing.
Of course, these were secondary to Lin Xueying. She still wanted to understand the grievances between the Jade Ice Patriarch and Yu Lingyao and who was right and wrong.
For this reason, she had made many inspections and finally found the place where a core elder of the inner domain of the Northern Cold Divine Sect practiced. With a lot of questions in her heart, she went to visit alone.
It was after this visit that Lin Xueying finally made up her mind to worship Yu Lingyao as her teacher to help her deal with the Jade Ice Patriarch.
After Yu Lingyao knew about it, she was naturally overjoyed and immediately taught Lin Xueying all the secrets of the Piaoxue Immortal Technique. Lin Xueying did not disappoint her. After decades, the Piaoxue Immortal Technique had been mastered, and her own realm was also advanced to the peak of the Refining Void.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin finally understood the general process of the matter, and was also happy for his wife. The rule of life is also a very rare and powerful rule. If it is cultivated to the extreme, it can even greatly increase one's lifespan. This is also a characteristic of the rule of life.
But for some reason, in the world of immortal cultivation, there are so few immortal cultivators who have comprehended the rule of life that it is outrageous. Xiao Lin never thought that his wife Lin Xueying actually comprehended such a rare rule.
At this point, he also understood why Yuan Hong stopped him from going down to see his wife. At present, Yu Lingyao and Yu Bingzi were fighting, but Lin Xueying was in seclusion here, obviously to practice the magical power of the snowy defeat of the beauty.
The sudden attack of the old ancestor Yu Bing was obviously beyond Yu Lingyao's expectation, and Lin Xueying had to speed up her cultivation.
After Xiao Lin thought for a moment, his face suddenly froze, and he ordered Yuan Hong to open the passage.
Yuan Hong pinched the spiritual formula without hesitation, opened the restriction on the ground, and as a large piece of green spiritual light flashed, a cave of about ten feet appeared in the center of the original ground. The cold air emanating from the cave made people feel a little chill from the depths of their souls.
"This is the Soul Condensation Cave, and Master's Wife is inside."
Xiao Lin turned into a dark green spiritual light without hesitation and shot into the cave. After falling for only a hundred feet, Xiao Lin landed on his feet, and he saw Lin Xueying sitting cross-legged in the three-foot void not far away. The green mist was surrounded by her body, condensing and not dispersing. This green mist was escaping from the pool below. Around the pool, there was a circle of green spiritual flowers blooming. The three-foot-high flower path supported the flower mushrooms, emitting a rich breath of life.
Lin Xueying did not notice Xiao Lin's arrival. At this moment, she was closing her five senses and entering the state of enlightenment.
Xiao Lin showed a look of realization on his face. He had seen that Lin Xueying's cultivation had reached the final stage, but she was running out of mana. After all, the Snow Flying Defeats Fragrance was a magical power recorded in the immortal formula, and the threshold for cultivation was also very high.
At this point, I'm afraid that the old ancestor Yu Ling had not thought of it either.
