Pei Jing's originally confused mind calmed down because of Chu Junyu's words, and these four words echoed in his mind. The energy of the devil? The devil, is it the devil he was thinking of? When he broke through the Nascent Soul, there was always a cold energy that spread across his bone marrow and blood, hindering the circulation of his spiritual power. It turned out to be the energy of the devil.
The moonlight passed through the window. In the cold and elegant Wuya Pavilion, Chu Junyu hugged him from behind, his fingers lightly touching his heart. He leaned down, his breath like a handful of snow.
"It has been dormant for a long time. It should have been there when you were born."
Pei Jing was stunned, and turned his head suddenly: "Having it when you were born?"
Chu Junyu smiled slightly, his tone surprisingly gentle: "Yes, you are destined not to be able to break through the Nascent Soul stage."
Pei Jing frowned, thinking of the plot in the original book of "Sword Punishment", in which Pei Yuzhi wanted to seize Ji Wuyou's golden elixir to refine medicine. Could it be because of this reason? He didn't have any panic in his mind now. He had a smooth journey to the great perfection of the golden elixir. He had expected that there would always be ups and downs. But he didn't expect it to be at this stage.
"Is there any way to break it?"
Chu Junyu loosened his hand and accidentally brushed Pei Jing's hair, which was smooth and cold. His fingers stopped for a moment and started playing with it. He said casually, "I can help you."
Pei Jing asked: "How can I help?"
Chu Junyu: "Let's find a warm pool first."
Pei Jing's first reaction was to ask: "Do you want to take off your clothes?"
Finished asking.
Pei Jing: “…”
Chu Junyu: "..."
Both of them fell silent.
The silver-haired young man just stared at him and spoke slowly after a long while: "No need."
Pei Jing: “... OK.” He really wanted to dig a hole in the ground.
There is no warm pool at Tianqian Peak, and the closest one should be at the back of Shufeng. We can't delay finding the symptom.
On the way to Book Peak, Pei Jing thought about something. According to Chu Junyu's character and his dislike for Ji Wuyou, he should be a villain in the original book. Moreover, he is the kind of villain who appears in the later part of "Zhu Jian" and directly brings suffocation to the protagonist, not a cannon fodder like him who is only active in the early stage. Thinking of Chu Junyu saying that he came to Yunxiao for one person, Pei Jing asked: "Did you know me before you came to Yunxiao?"
Chu Junyu asked, "What answer do you want to hear?"
Pei Jing: "Just don't lie to me..."
Chu Junyu looked at him deeply and said, "I know him."
Pei Jing continued to ask: "Am I stupid in your memory?" Why stupid? He remembered that his image to the outside world was quite bright and great.
Chu Junyu smiled and said, "Why would you ask such a question? What do you think?"
Pei Jing stopped, his handsome face showing another kind of persistence: "What is it?" In the past, he would at most grind his teeth when he was angry with Chu Junyu, but now he couldn't help but take it seriously. "What is it that makes you think I'm stupid?"
In front of the mountain road where Shufengzang was hiding, there was a walkway stained red by frost leaves. It looked like a red cloud during the day, but it looked a bit bleak at night. Chu Junyu didn't know what he was obsessed with, and said lightly: "Do you have to get an answer from me?"
"Um."
Chu Junyu suddenly asked with a half-smile, "Pei Yuzhi, do you think I have good patience?"
“… ... .” Bullshit.
Pei Jing lowered his head in silence. Thinking of the night when the maple leaves fell like rain in the Yunlan Mountains, the mysterious silver-haired man walked out of the darkness and spoke to him in the same tone. His mood inexplicably became depressed.
In the back of the maple forest, deep in the frost-covered grass and trees, there was a warm pool. White mist seeped out bit by bit, but it was icy cold, more like a cold spring.
Chu Junyu said, "Go in."
Pei Jing had practiced in an ice room before, so he was not afraid of the cold. He naturally sank into the water, and the cold penetrated into his bones little by little, causing his eyebrows to be frost-stained. As it was about breaking through the Nascent Soul, Pei Jing was still very positive and tilted his head: "And then?"
Chu Junyu: "Then shut up."
Pei Jing was so angry that his teeth itched. As expected, the young Chu Junyu was still adorable. Although he was also cold, he would not be annoyed even if he put his arm around her. She actually complained that he talked too much. Who else did he talk more to
Chu Junyu said: "When I was in seclusion, I tried to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."
Pei Jing tilted his head in the warm pool, stunned and surprised: "How can I enter the state of mind during retreat here?"
His black hair fell on one shoulder, and in the white mist, his dark eyes appeared warm and bright, as moving as a tower lost in the fog.
Chu Junyu looked him straight in the eye and lowered his voice and said, "Try it."
Pei Jing frowned, but still turned around obediently with his back to him. He began to concentrate his energy. It was not easy to break the Nascent Soul with the Golden Core. It would take at least ten years to sense the world and suddenly realize the myriad things. How could he enter the state in one breath? He thought it was impossible, but he still tried his best. Pei Jing's will and character were not bad to be able to reach the top of the Heavenly Ranking.
He quickly put aside all distracting thoughts and listened to every movement. The spiritual energies of gold, wood, water, fire, and space were dotted in the air, and even the light became materialized.
The golden elixir in his Dantian has reached its final state, rich in essence, and even showing signs of overflowing, just like a full water tank that needs to be broken and replaced with another place to hold it, and the golden elixir turns into an infant. As his consciousness grows longer and deeper, the sounds of hibernating insects and plants growing around him become more obvious. What follows is the breathing of the person behind him, light and shallow, like a thread. Then everything changes, the mountains and rivers are still, the plants are silent, he is pulled back to reality, and his sea of consciousness even begins to copy Chu Junyu's appearance, his hair and eyebrows, his grace and elegance. Pei Jing tried hard to make his consciousness serious, but they were like a group of naughty children, not listening at all.
Chu Junyu dropped a drop of blood into the cold pool, and the blood color quickly faded. Standing by, waiting for the demonic energy dormant in Pei Jing's body to come out, he looked down and saw Pei Jing's complicated expression. At this age, he was still the most high-spirited, so this puzzled expression was actually childish and cute.
Chu Junyu sighed in his heart, pressed Pei Jing's shoulders, and called out, "Pei Yuzhi."
Pei Jing opened his eyes almost instantly, puzzled and embarrassed. What was he doing just now? !
Chu Junyu's eyes were as cold as stars, and he said, "What were you thinking about just now?"
Pei Jing was embarrassed and said, "I..." He couldn't say it. Chu Junyu looked so serious that Pei Jing felt strangely ashamed. He leaned against the shore and whispered, "I'm afraid it won't work tonight. It's been too long since the last retreat. I may need some time."
That's not the reason, he's lying.
But when he lowered his tone, he acted like a child who had done something wrong.
Chu Junyu looked at him deeply and said, "Okay."
Chu Junyu agreed, but Pei Jing stayed awake all night. He sat quietly in the Tianqian Palace for a long time, his black hair and snow-white robe were cold, until dawn. He promised to meet Xiao Chen in three days.
So today’s plan is to go to Yinghui Peak.
After meeting Chen Xu, the two flew to the outer peak on a white crane.
Chen Xu felt that Pei Yuzhi was very strange today. He sat at the end of the white crane without saying a word. He didn't know what he was thinking. Thinking back to the first time he sat on the white crane, he said a word and pulled a handful of hair, which was extremely annoying.
"Are you thinking about love?" Thinking of what Pei Yuzhi said that night, Chen Xu asked a very crucial question.
I thought Pei Jing would laugh and retort.
Unexpectedly, Pei Jing frowned, looked up at him, and then asked sincerely: "Why do you can't help but get nervous when someone approaches you?"
Chen Xu almost choked to death, his eyes widened, "You're asking me this?"
Pei Jing wanted to grab his hair in annoyance, but when he thought about the fact that he was no longer a teenager but the chief disciple of Yunxiao, he withdrew his hand and pulled the hair of Baihe under him instead. "I'm not nervous, I'm just panicking. I'm afraid I won't perform well."
Chen Xu found it interesting: "Are you afraid of not performing well? It's really strange that you still have this feeling. When you were in Jingtian Academy, you didn't have this awareness in front of the master." He leaned over and asked curiously: "Who is it?"
Pei Jing pushed his head away with an annoyed look on his face, and fell into confusion again: "Don't ask who it is. I'm annoyed."
He actually asked the wrong person. If he had asked Yu Qinglian, he would probably get a meaningful smile immediately. But asking Chen Xu would require a different approach.
Chen Xu's standards for choosing a mate are extremely contradictory, and he always acts pretentiously in front of female cultivators. It can be said that he understands human emotions no better than Pei Jing.
Chen Xu thought for a long time and muttered, "Nervous and not performing well, isn't this how I behaved in front of my master? When I was in Jingtianyuan, I wanted to take a detour when I saw my master..."
Grandmaster Yunxiao is more terrifying than the head of the sect. If the head of the Tianya sect has been forced by Pei Jing to become a grumpy old man, showing his emotions on his face, then Grandmaster Hanxu is a smiling tiger, who always looks friendly but is not ambiguous when he strikes.
The decisiveness of the big boss in the Spirit Transformation Stage is simply a nightmare for them.
He turned his head, wondering who Pei Yuzhi had met. But after thinking about it, no one had ever been seen at Tianqian Peak all year round. Now there was only... Oh, his brother.
Chen Xu's eyes widened instantly: "You are not talking about your brother."
Pei Jingti turned hostile and said, "... Get lost."
When Chen Xu saw his expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly and laughed happily.
That mysterious silver-haired man is really amazing.
"Hahaha, you actually have come to this day. He is the only one in the world who can make you nervous. He is really a ruthless person."
Pei Jing threw all the bird feathers in his hand at his face.
Chen Xu blocked it with his sleeves and said in a mean way, "You're afraid of performing poorly. What kind of performance are you afraid of? Do you think you can't be a good brother?" It must be said that after staying with Pei Yuzhi for a long time, Chen Xu's ability to confront people is not bad.
"roll."
Pei Jing stood up directly, fluttered his white robe, and flew across the sky with his sword, intending to leave the psychopathic Chen Xu.
Chen Xu patted He's head, followed him, and said, "No more joking. Seriously, you're afraid of not performing well because you treat him as an elder. Where did you bring this guy back from? I felt he was very dangerous at first sight, and his strength was unfathomable. Are you sure you want to leave him at Tianqian Peak?"
Pei Jing frowned: "I said he can help me break through the Nascent Soul, do you believe it?"
Chen Xu's jaw dropped. To help Pei Jing break through the Nascent Soul stage, one must at least be at the Spiritualization stage. The only person at the Spiritualization stage that he had ever seen in his life was the Grandmaster of Jingtian Academy.
"you... ... "
Pei Jing said: "I know what you are going to say, don't worry."
Chen Xu shut up. In fact, he had a good impression of the silver-haired man, but behind the good impression was fear. Now, after hearing what Pei Jing said, he felt it was even more dangerous. "Do you want to ask Master about this first?"
Breaking the Nascent Soul is no small matter.
Pei Jing lowered his eyes, "I know what's going on."
Chen Xu pursed his lips.
Pei Jing stood on the sword, his handsome face a little irritated: "Last night, when he was helping me, I made a mistake because of my nervousness."
Seeing his good friend who had grown up together with him, his expression was so complicated. Chen Xu stammered twice and sighed sincerely: "Your brother is really fierce." The word "fierce" probably means "great".
Pei Jing didn't react for a moment, and followed his lead: "Yeah, brother is really awesome."
The air was quiet for a moment.
Chen Xu: “…”
Pei Jing: “…”
The Lingyun Sword was trembling. Bai He looked left and right, wishing he could hide himself. It was so scary.
Pei Jing: “Fuck!”
The first curse was handed over to Chen Xu. He flew his sword through the wind and rushed straight to Yinghui Peak bathed in the morning light.
Chen Xu was also extremely embarrassed. He was so scared that he almost thought Pei Yuzhi was going to beat him up. He hurriedly pulled Bai He, who was unlucky today, and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, follow me."
The author has something to say: Brother Feng is here to eat dog food, hahaha.
