"Oh, it's like having an out-of-body experience while sleeping. I occasionally have that feeling, but it's only been as clear as this time. The last time I was observing everything that happened from a perspective."
Before she could finish speaking, he interrupted her and asked: "One more time? What was the last time like?"
"That's the time you woke me up in the Yongchuan Forest. Do you still remember? You were very angry because I fell asleep in the forest that day!"
"How could you forget?! That day you were attacked by Rakshasa Mother's men in your sleep. Fortunately, I arrived in time."
"Actually, after I woke up by the lake that day, I had the same feeling as today. It was like I was dreaming and entering another world. The whole forest seemed to be shrouded in dusk-colored fog. As I walked, I discovered that there was a There was a huge crack. I was attracted by the red light in the crack and looked down. There were many iron chains hanging from the cages. The cages contained some monsters. I was frightened and ran back, and I saw I was still lying there when I was about to be attacked. When I didn't know what to do, you appeared and saved me. Although at that time I thought everything was just a dream, but..." Xia Qiu said the story of that day in one breath. Tell Ouyang Xiaoleng about his real experience.
"This means we should discuss it with Hongye. Although it sounds like it is a soul separation, your soul separation is completely different from what I have known before. Do you know what you saw through the crack?" After listening to Xia Qiu's words, even Ouyang Xiaoleng became no longer calm.
"Blackfire Purgatory?"
"It's very possible! At least what you described is exactly the same as what I know. Hongye is still resting in the outhouse, and Fenghuo and Qianqi are guarding it now. You can sleep for a while, and we will discuss it with Hongye before setting off in the morning. !" Ouyang Xiaoleng felt a dull pain in his heart. For someone who had just awakened the ability to leave the soul, it was a very painful experience. It was a torture for the body and soul. As for whether her ability was a blessing or a curse, he still not sure.
"Yes." Xia Qiu responded. Although Ouyang Xiaoleng tried his best to conceal it, she still heard the seriousness of this matter.
Ouyang Xiaoleng felt her uneasiness from her eyes, so he gently put his two hands on her shoulders to calm her mood. His big hands were like tranquilizers, and when the warmth flowed from his fingers came, making her breathing become quiet and peaceful. He let her lie down, and then he lay opposite her, their eyes intertwined with tenderness.
At this moment, she felt that she liked him so much, more than anyone else. Although she understood that the situation she was facing now no longer allowed her to think so much, her feelings were still like a runaway pony, difficult to control, and they fell asleep unknowingly while staring at each other.
After dawn, Xia Qiu was awakened by some noises outside. Ouyang Xiaoleng was no longer beside her. She stood up and walked out of the bird house. She looked down from the platform and saw that others had packed their bags.
Ouyang Hongye raised his head and saw her standing on the platform looking down, so he flew up and said, "Are you awake? Xiao Leng said you didn't sleep well last night, so he didn't ask you to pack your luggage together, and wanted you to rest more. , we should leave soon!"
Before Xia Qiu woke up, Ouyang Xiaoleng had told Ouyang Hongye about her soul separation, and also gave him the piece of paper she drew. Before departure, Ouyang Hongye talked about this with him and Xia Qiu. thing.
"Probably after signing the blood pact, as Xia Qiu's own strength improved, your soul separation ability also improved. The so-called soul separation, just like what you said is the feeling of soul leaving the body during sleep, and the body will be slightly weak at first. , but with practice and the improvement of soul separation ability, this feeling of powerlessness will gradually disappear. There are many kinds of soul separation, but all soul separation will generally start from the place where you enter the soul separation state, that is, whether it is Anyone who has experienced soul separation will have the illusion of waking up in the place where he entered soul separation for the first time. Your situation last night is like a higher state of soul separation, which is the so-called restoration of others in the space. The separation of the time curve, each of our actions is on its own time curve, and as a space, it will actually record these curves, but this curve is usually unable to be captured by others. However, the separation of the soul enhances something in you The ability to read time curves. You can read the time curve of someone who was in the space you are now in at a certain moment, and form a space picture. Although this is rare, I have heard of it. . But this type of soul separation will be limited by space, that is, this bird house invisibly forms a relatively independent space, which is why you cannot follow Hei Yun to places outside the bird house. When you try to break through this space At the same time, your soul separation is over, and the feeling of being withdrawn from the body declares this result." After Ouyang Hongye said such a long sentence, he lowered his head and looked at the paper in his hand, "This I have read this book from Mr. Yong, and it is about records and legends about some foreign objects. The foreign objects referred to here refer to things and life forms that do not belong to the demon world. Some mysterious species may also come from other worlds."
"Both you and Grandpa Yong have told me that Hei Yun has a mysterious life experience. Didn't we discover a black hole leading to another world in the underworld? Maybe the same black hole exists somewhere in the demon world." Maybe, Hei Yun is looking for the mystery of his life experience?" Ouyang Xiaoleng suddenly connected the two things together.
"Well, I have this idea too, but what I care more about is that Qingyun seems to know every move we make. It seems that his spy in the royal city is not a simple role."
Ouyang Hongye showed a worried expression. He was attacked by Black Meteor as early as before Xia Qiu signed a blood alliance with Xiao Leng; and this time the seal of the divine pillar in Chenji Palace was destroyed and the divine power was scattered. At the election meeting, none of this seemed like a coincidence.
"Yes, and I don't understand why he doesn't attack us since he knows every move of ours. The sentence about not alerting the enemy is particularly worth thinking about."
Ouyang Xiaoleng's emotions also became fluctuating. The fluctuations were completely different from those of him before. His words could not hide his anger that their situation was firmly controlled by Qingyun. The death of his parents many years ago was very likely It was because a traitor appeared in the royal city, and the traitor could not be found in the following sixteen years.
"It's really amazing that Xia Qiu has such an ability. Not to mention humans, this ability is extremely rare even among us demons, and there are even fewer people who can skillfully use this ability!" Ouyang Hongye Feeling his rare anger and murderous intent, he changed the topic slightly, "Now we can only connect the information currently available to everything that has happened recently."
Xia Qiu thought hard and said: "You once told me that Qingyun's purpose is to rule the three realms, so if the power of the divine pillar is completely dissipated, the destruction of the demon world must not be what he wants! And now! The demon world is facing this crisis. If he knows all our whereabouts, then he must know that we are now looking for a way to save the demon world. Attacking us now will definitely do more harm than good to him."
"That's good, I think so too, but I still have other questions." Ouyang Hongye frowned, "My intuition tells me that the crisis of the four divine pillars in Chenji Palace is very much like man-made sabotage, and this culprit is The culprit may very well be Qingyun himself, but if so, isn’t his behavior somewhat contradictory?”
Ouyang Xiaoleng seemed to suddenly have a flash of inspiration, and then he said: "His purpose of causing a huge crisis in the demon world may be to let us ignore the search for him and give him time to complete something. As for what exactly it is? It is the completeness of power. Recover? Or wait for some kind of opportunity? If this is the case, it will be more terrifying than launching a direct attack on us."
"Since we left Dongyao, Sanmu has also begun to use his spies in various parts of the demon world to collect information about Qingyun, hoping to gain something before Qingyun's next move. Now just solving the crisis of the divine pillar seal has already made us I'm so worried. Damn it! Don't tell others what you saw when you were away. In any case, our first priority now is to find the Tianfu. I don't want to affect their emotions because of something that is not yet completely determined. "At this moment, Ouyang Hongye was extremely serious and said in a commanding tone like an elder.
"Okay." Xia Qiu also felt that everything he saw when he passed away was too vague. For now, it seemed that it would only increase the troubles of others.
Although the discussion has come to an end for the time being, Ouyang Xiaoleng still cares about it unconsciously. He knows that every move made by the wily Qingyun is surprising, just like the two wars he has launched have made the demon world unprepared. , even great kings like his grandfather Li and his father Ouyang Xueye did not completely defeat him. Thinking about himself at this moment, he was still far behind them, and he felt angry. This anger stemmed from frustration. He hated that he could not have the power of his father and grandfather in an instant, let alone surpass them. He knew that he wanted to completely defeat Qingyun. , what needs to become strong is not only the ability, but also one's own heart.
Ouyang Hongye saw from the side that the boy he had brought up by himself was surrounded by contradictions and sorrow at the moment. He felt heartbroken but could do nothing about it. Some people are destined to bear much more responsibilities than others from birth. This kind of injustice is naturally inevitable. Exists in the demon world. People born with a halo often cannot choose the path they want to take. They must get used to being compared with their parents from time to time. They must also adapt to how to survive in the harsh eyes before they can be recognized as an independent person in the world. Before they become individuals, rather than descendants of someone, they have to go through an extremely long and painful process of transformation. Only a handful of people can persevere and run towards the direction of their hearts.
He was very aware of Ouyang Xiaoleng's hatred for Qingyun, because he himself was also at odds with Qingyun, but he did not realize that under Ouyang Xiaoleng's calm surface, the hatred had overflowed and could swallow up his reason at any time. Although Xia Qiu's ability amazed him, it also worried him. He just pretended to be calm and did not show his worries. As a very special ability, soul separation will attract those who possess this ability to constantly explore themselves, and this self-reminder is likely to have an impact on the body and mind of the ability user.
Because the premise of this ability is that the soul needs to leave the body to complete the process of jumping out of the constraints of time and space and interpreting the curve of space. When the owner's ability does not reach a high level, too frequent separation from the body is likely to make the owner The person cannot reunite his body and spirit, and then falls into a coma; because the whole person will be extremely awake during the soul separation process, and the memory will be extremely profound. People who are not conscious enough will easily be unable to distinguish between their own spatial curves and what they see after waking up. Which space curve is actually happening at this moment, so much so that it causes harm to their spirits. Lord Yong may be able to guide Xia Qiu's ability to escape from the dead. Among his many ancient books, there are many records about the ability to escape from the dead. There may also be relevant information about Dong Muya in the materials she manages. The knowledge of the alliance can only be realized after obtaining the Tianfu and returning to the royal city of Yongchuan.
In fact, Xia Qiu forced herself to leave her body yesterday when her soul left. When she woke up, she felt as if she had not slept all night, but she did not expect the harm that this ability might cause to herself. Hei Yun in the dream caught her attention. His appearance was not ugly, his face was clear-cut, and he had sharp-looking sideburns and a beard. He was tall, with broad shoulders, some brown-gray skin, and he looked older. Ouyang red leaves are similar. For some reason, she felt that he was completely inconsistent with her image of a bad guy, because there was no hint of sinisterness or cruelty in his yellow pupils, but rather a hint of loyalty. Should she trust her instincts? As a general beside Qingyun, he is destined to be her enemy, but she stubbornly thinks that he is a rebel because he dares to hide something under Qingyun's control, which just shows his courage.
