Chapter 81 Seeing a Black Beetle at a Funeral

The Great Dao is like a whip. Since the cultivators set foot on the path of cultivation, they have been whipping them to keep moving forward. Otherwise, the result will be the end of the Dao.

Since Ge Xuanlang has passed away, Wu Yi, as a disciple, naturally has to go to pay his respects, but it is night time, and it is the Heart Demon who will come forward.

After the Heart Demon has stolen Wu Yi's shadow clone, it can be separated from Wu Yi at a short distance, and it is not necessary to be with Wu Yi. Similarly, since it is the Heart Demon who comes forward at night, Wu Yi can completely not attend Ge Xuanlang's funeral, but if the funeral continues until daytime, then the Heart Demon will be regarded as encroaching on Wu Yi's power. It was fine to seek a breakthrough before, but now that he has woken up, the power cannot be shared with the Heart Demon, so as not to make the Heart Demon think that he is weak and can be bullied.

After hearing the bell, the Heart Demon also understood what happened. After all, it was it that met He Wei before. It was certain that Wang Chuchen would also be there. For people at the Jindan level, these illusions had no effect on them, so the Heart Demon did not use illusions to cover his body. Blood flowed around his body, and a flesh and blood body suddenly appeared.

Wu Yi followed the inexplicable connection with the shadow clone in the Shadow Escape method and attached himself to the Heart Demon, just like a shadow. This is one of the characteristics of Shadow Escape. If you don't take action, the difference between the main body and the shadow clone will become smaller and smaller.

Although the Heart Demon is independent, it originally occupied Wu Yi's shadow clone. Wu Yi can still use some Shadow Escape techniques to communicate with the shadow clone. If the Heart Demon wants, it can also cut off this connection at any time, but for some reason the Heart Demon did not do so, which also gave Wu Yi the opportunity to hide behind the Heart Demon. Of course, this connection is two-way, and the Heart Demon can also hide behind Wu Yi when Wu Yi shows up.

The inner demon pushed open the stone door and headed for Mingdao Peak without a hurry. Although Ge Xuanlang usually lived on Zhenming Peak, since he was the master of the temple, the funeral would naturally be held on the main peak Mingdao Peak.

Along the way, Wu Yi rarely saw items such as soul-calling banners and soul-guiding paper. After all, Ge Xuanlang practiced the inner alchemy, not the classic school. Classical school monks study and verify the classics, and respectfully practice the manifestation of human gods. Generally speaking, most of the classic school monks practice the way of gods. According to their own sect's pantheon, they feel the will of heaven and practice for a lifetime, just to leave their names in the pen of the gods and get the incense of the way of gods.

Ge Xuanlang did not seek to be deified, so naturally he did not have so many trivial matters, and he seemed very deserted. The inner demon was considered to have arrived relatively late. It wanted to stand around the new disciples, but those disciples knew that Wu Yi was not an ordinary person, so they dared not stand with Wu Yi and retreated.

The inner demon had no choice but to see that the disciples above the peak of the fourth transformation formed their own school, so he stood on that side. As soon as he stood still, Wu Yi heard several disciples behind him talking about Ge Xuanlang's death.

"I heard that if the old master had not consumed too much energy to give birth to Ge Yiyi, the youngest daughter, he could have lived two more years."

"The old master has no confidence in his two sons and is afraid that they can't support the Ge family."

Another person interrupted the conversation between the two and said: "Be careful, the youngest daughter of the Ge family will soon be married to the Xu family, and the status of the Ge family in the sect may not be much lower."

The two of them stopped talking very tactfully. What they talked about before had already involved the redivision of power in the temple, which was naturally inconvenient. Even if they talked, they would not talk in public.

But then the two of them talked about the style of the Xu family's son. There were all kinds of opinions, and Wu Yi, who was hiding behind his inner demon, did not continue to listen.

It was just the first time Wu Yi heard that Ge Yiyi was going to be married to the Xu family, but he thought it was just a normal marriage between these families, and Wu Yi did not take it to heart.

Wu Yi and Ge Yiyi's interactions were concentrated at the birthday banquet of Emperor Gengshi, especially before she left. Wu Yi could not say that he had much good feelings for such a woman of modest origin but not arrogant, but at least he had no bad feelings.

The solemn and majestic bell sounded again, and the funeral ceremony officially began.

Wang Chuchen came forward and first briefly recounted Ge Xuanlang's life. Of course, he whitewashed his faults and picked up the good things. Finally, he lamented that his death had left him one less companion on the road.

After Wang Chuchen finished speaking, the disciples performed a great salute and did not stand up for a long time.

After the ceremony, the disciples stood up, solemnly watching the Ge clan members carry Ge Xuanlang's body away, and the whole ceremony was over.

It looks simple, but if Ge Xuanlang died in the inner gate at this time, he might not even be buried in peace, let alone someone to see him off. It was precisely because Ge Xuanlang had served as the master of the outer gate that he had this honor. The immortal way is simple, especially for the inner alchemy way that focuses on self-cultivation.

Wu Yi watched the Ge clan members send Ge Xuanlang's body away, without any ripples in his heart. He had already expressed his feelings about Ge Xuanlang's death before. If he still had such thoughts at this time, it would be a bit sad and sad. He sighed and messed up his mood.

His current goal is to become a true disciple as soon as possible. The world of the outer sect can no longer accommodate him. He is not very interested in the changes in power that will be caused by Ge Xuanlang's death.

After everything was done, the inner demon returned to the cave, and Wu Yi naturally came back with him. He went out for a walk. At such a close distance, those disciples did not find Wu Yi's main body, which shows that the shadow escape effect is still good.

Of course, the inner demon cannot be regarded as a shadow clone. It is an independent existence. Rather than saying that the shadow escape effect is good, it is better to say that the inner demon's imitation ability is too strong, and others did not notice it.

After leaving the inner demon, Wu Yi examined himself. Wu Yi suddenly remembered that he had not seen the black beetle for a long time, especially when he was in the inner gate with the old monster Bai Ze above his head. Wu Yi did not dare to relax his mind to prevent being discovered.

As he gradually came into contact with more things in the cultivation world, Wu Yi became more and more curious about the black beetle, but as his curiosity was satisfied little by little, Wu Yi's uneasiness became more and more serious.

When Wu Yi was still a mortal, he dared to bargain with the black beetle. Now he thought that he was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger. In Wu Yi's eyes, Bai Ze was already a real immortal on land, but the last time Bai Ze used Taoism on him, he could clearly feel that the level of the black beetle was probably higher than Bai Ze.

Why did the black beetle of such a high level follow him? Is its origin really as it said? What is the flame surrounding it? Wu Yi has too many doubts waiting to be solved.

Perhaps Ge Xuanlang's death made Wu Yi feel sad. He didn't want to continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb. He wanted to take a firm step on the road of the Great Dao. Wu Yi's mind entered the bead.

After not seeing it for a few months, Wu Yi was surprised that the black beetle had expanded several times. The entire flame encirclement was barely able to trap it. The flame pattern on the back shell was clearer, and different things could be seen every time he looked at it.

Seeing Wu Yi coming, the black beetle opened its mouth and burped, but flames appeared with the opening of the black beetle's mouth. Sensing the flame breath, Wu Yi suddenly remembered that when he lived in the inner bamboo building, the bead swallowed up the fire vein that led directly to the alchemy room.

Now it seems that it should be nourished by the earth fire that the black beetle has progressed so fast.

This breath is probably about to be a golden elixir. Wu Yi was secretly shocked.

"Why are you practicing so slowly." The black beetle started to complain about Wu Yi. The black beetle was originally an immortal, and its body contained the Great Dao. As long as it had everything, breaking through was a piece of cake for it.

Wu Yi did not argue with the black beetle. He was attracted by the flame pattern on its back after the black beetle broke through. Before, perhaps because the black beetle was too small, the pattern was a little curled up and could not be seen clearly, or perhaps because his realm was not yet reached. Now that his spiritual consciousness was born, he could naturally see more things.

The black beetle looked at Wu Yi's absent-minded look, knowing that he was attracted by the Great Dao on his back, and did not intervene too much. Although it controlled a complete Great Dao, it would not be able to exert the power of the Great Dao if it did not reach a certain realm, and outsiders should not even think of peeping into the secret of becoming an immortal. The reason why Wu Yi lost his mind at this time was because he was caught in a confrontation of Dao rhyme.

The Great Dao of Burning of the Burning Emperor and Wu Yi's own Great Dao of Tranquility.

Not only Wu Yi's spiritual clone in the bead, but also Wu Yi's main body in the outside world were caught in this confrontation. If Wu Yi had not used illusion to cover his body before entering the bead, it was unknown how the inner demon would react. But the inner demon also used illusion to cover its body. Although Wu Yi and the inner demon were in the same room, they were separated by two illusions.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, Wu Yi looked at the familiar scene in front of him. It was the scene of the volcanic eruption he saw in the Burning Emperor World. The fiery magma surged past, burning everything, and everything returned to one.

But this time he was no longer watching as a bystander, but really felt the hot breath, as if it was going to burn him to ashes.

Feeling the breath of death, Wu Yi subconsciously stepped back. Fortunately for Wu Yi, the speed of the magma spread was much slower than his retreat speed, but the more he retreated, the more Wu Yi felt something was wrong. The fiery magma disappeared, but a piercing chill came.

Wu Yi stopped and stopped retreating, but the chill kept invading, forcing Wu Yi to retreat in the direction of the magma.

With magma in front and chill behind, Wu Yi was caught in a dilemma.

Wu Yi retreated to an intermediate zone and did not take any action. He was recalling everything that had happened before and thinking about how to break it.

He remembered that after seeing the flame pattern on the back of the black beetle, he thought of the will of the Burning Emperor to break and then stand up, and then his consciousness was pulled here.

It was similar to the confrontation with the Heart Demon Daoyun. Wu Yi calmed down and looked around, and he knew how to break the situation.

Waiting for the magma and coldness to sweep over, Wu Yi sat cross-legged in the center, like an old monk in meditation.

One side was cold, and the other side was hot, which could be called ice and fire. Wu Yi was not panicked. At this time, for some reason, Wu Yi silently recited the Qingxin Mantra in his heart.

On the contrary, at such a critical moment, Wu Yi recited the Qingxin Mantra much slower, and there were long sounds between each word, like a dream.

The magma and coldness arrived as expected, and met at Wu Yi's place. The cold and hot collided, and a tug-of-war broke out. Wu Yi in the center was like sitting in an ice cave for a while, and like lying on a volcano for a while.

As the temperature alternated between hot and cold, the body condensed by Wu Yi's spiritual consciousness had cracks, which then expanded and spread to the whole body. Wu Yi was like a porcelain doll that was about to break.

Wu Yi continued to chant the Heart Purification Mantra, as if his body was intact. "Squeak", a piece of his body slid down, and then caused a domino effect, and the body condensed by Wu Yi's spiritual consciousness was completely broken.

The confrontation between magma and coldness also had a result at this time. The magma seemed to have received a reinforcement, and it was full of momentum and drove away all the coldness.

Wu Yi's broken body was worn away bit by bit in the surging magma, but the essence was not lost. The magma seemed to help Wu Yi refine the impurities in his spiritual consciousness, making it more condensed.

These remaining essences flew up to the sky little by little and gathered around Wu Yi, but Wu Yi, who was chanting the Qingxin Mantra, had no intention of gathering them. Instead, he continued to chant the Qingxin Mantra. Gradually, the "impurities" of the spiritual consciousness that had been stripped away by the magma also appeared little by little.

Only then did Wu Yi gather the fragments of spiritual consciousness together. When his body was completely gathered, this world disappeared little by little.

Seeing that Wu Yi finally resisted the urge to choose the benefit of condensing spiritual consciousness, the black beetle sighed.

This benefit is real, but if Wu Yi really chose it at that time, it would mean admitting that the Dao Yun of the Burning Emperor was stronger than his own Dao Yun. The Dao Yun that Wu Yi controlled now might not be the Great Dao of Tranquility, but the Great Dao of Burning.

The battle of Dao Yun is extremely dangerous.
