Half a month later.
The tomb of a real dragon under the sea.
The spirit-gathering bead exudes a cold radiance, and the aura of the seabed and the breath of the true dragon's keel gather together, enter the water-proof space of Tianbao's robe, and wrap up the man sitting cross-legged on the rock. From his mouth and nose, his pores into his body. His body was flashing with golden spots, and mysterious changes were happening every moment, but he was completely unaware of it.
In the past half month, Ning Tao has been coming to the tomb of the real dragon under the sea every day to practice real and fake fighting skills to refine the spiritual boxing. The starting position of this boxing technique is the same as the Ice and Fire Spirit Refining Cultivation Technique that he used to practice his spiritual power. During his practice, his body breathes naturally, and the aura of the seabed and the breath of the true dragon's bones can also give it to him. He brings great benefits.
However, compared to the improvement that Nascent Soul has received during this period, it is far behind.
boom!
After a blast, Ning Tao's body flew out like a kite, and landed heavily on the ground. Nascent Soul's kick made his whole body seem to fall apart, his internal organs were shaken, and the painful feeling almost made him faint.
Now Yuanying is no longer the little kid he was before, but a young man of the same height and appearance as him. Not only is he strong, he is immune to injury.
A person's biggest enemy is himself. This sentence may be just a philosophy to others, but for Ning Tao, it is a real experience and feeling that hurts the body and soul.
In the past half month, his spiritual power has improved rapidly, and his Nascent Soul has also become stronger. In every fight between the inner world and the inner world, he beat Yuanying violently, and Yuanying also beat him wildly. The body and soul were tempered and became stronger in every fight between true and false.
It's just that this process is too miserable...
"Pfft!" Ning Tao had just gotten up, and when his monkey head turned sweet, he opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Yuanying, who was also kicked, was fine and stood quietly next to Niwan Palace.
The Niwan Palace has also undergone amazing changes. Not only has the previous pool become wider, but the mud-like existence in the pool has also become much clearer.
Niwan Palace is actually a pond, but this pond does not contain water for fish farming or irrigating farmland, but spiritual power. At first, Ning Tao's Niwan Palace was just a small mud puddle, not even a pond, and the spiritual power in it was only a pitiful trace. Now, the original mud puddle has almost turned into a small reservoir, and its capacity has been expanded countless times.
At first, his spiritual power had so many impurities that it was like mud when stored in Niwan Palace, but now it is quite clear. This is not only because the impurities have been purified to a certain extent, but also because the level of spiritual power has been improved. He is no longer a rookie who only started to learn cultivation with Chen Pingdao's marrow-cleansing pill, and his spiritual power will naturally not Then there was the spiritual power that had so many impurities at the beginning.
However, no matter how evolved and purified, the nature of good and evil, one black and one white, remains unchanged. In his Niwan Palace, even if his spiritual power is as clear as spring water, it is white and black spring water. A more vivid metaphor is that half of his Niwan Palace is filled with ink and half is filled with milk.
In the future, when spiritual power evolves to a new level and impurities are further purified and reduced, what it will look like is something that even he himself doesn't know.
"The last time..." Ning Tao staggered. It was difficult for him to even stand, but his eyes were still determined. He was never the kind of person to back down when faced with difficulties. On the contrary, he usually faced difficulties head-on.
The difficulty he faces now is the final form of the true and false fighting spirit refining boxing technique, free entry and exit. This move is difficult to say, but not easy either. That is, he needs to defeat his Nascent Soul and tame it completely, so that he can control it and let it leave the body.
But it was such a simple condition, and he had not fulfilled it even once in the past fifteen days. Every time, he was beaten up by Nascent Soul until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and then he left the inner world in despair.
How easy is it for a person to defeat himself
We know that smoking is harmful to health, but how many smokers can quit smoking
Although they know the dangers of obesity, how many people can control their mouths
Knowing that lying is wrong, how many people can stop themselves from lying to others
It is difficult to defeat simple living habits, let alone defeat a being like Nascent Soul. No matter how Ning Tao hits it, it will not be injured. The reason is simple. It is a ball of energy, the product of his soul and spiritual power. He would feel pain if he was beaten, but his Nascent Soul would not.
"Ah!" After adjusting his breath for a moment, Ning Tao roared angrily and rushed towards Nascent Soul.
Nascent Soul also roared angrily and rushed towards him with the same posture and the same speed.
Bang!
In the dull bombardment, Ning Tao's body was thrown out again and hit the ground heavily. This time he attacked Nascent Soul's head and punched him hard. His idea was to knock Nascent Soul unconscious with one punch and then subdue him. However, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. His punch failed to knock Yuanying unconscious, but he almost fainted.
Mentally unstable, Ning Tao's innate spiritual consciousness withdrew from the inner world.
The golden light spots disappeared the moment he looked at it, and disappeared into his body. Pain followed, and the muscles and bones all over the body felt as if they had been hit inch by inch with a hammer, and the body seemed to burst. And his soul, he felt as if his soul might drift out of his body at any time, and he would die after that.
This was not the first time he had experienced such a bad feeling. After half a month of training, he would experience it several times every day. After each training session, he would return to the Tianwai Clinic to practice his spiritual power, replenish his spiritual power consumption, and also use his spiritual power to treat his injuries.
But he has had enough of this kind of repetition. What's worse is that Yuanying seems to be impossible to defeat at all. Even if he recharges his energy and tries again, what awaits him is just another painful battle between real and fake.
What's the problem
This time, Ning Tao did not rush back to Tianwai Clinic to replenish his spiritual power and heal his wounds. Instead, he sat in the tomb of the real dragon under the sea and thought about the problem.
There was no light in the tomb, but the bones of the real dragon could still be faintly seen. The real dragon is dead, but its bones exude rich aura and dragon aura, giving people a shimmering feeling.
Ning Tao looked at the real dragon skeleton and was in a trance. He secretly thought in his heart: "All the legendary beasts are destined to die. I have worked so hard to train, but in the end I am still bound to die. Why?"
Failure destroys people's confidence and makes them discouraged.
What people need most after failure is comfort, but no one comforts him here. He has a strong nature, so even if he returns to Bai Jing and Qing Zhui, he will not seek their comfort. He is a man, the breadwinner of the family. How can he run to his woman for comfort when he encounters a slight setback? That would be too girly.
I don't know why, when he was sitting alone and depressed at the bottom of the sea, two very kind and familiar faces quietly appeared in Ning Tao's mind in an inadvertent moment.
Those are the father and mother who have passed away.
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Ning Tao's mouth, and he said to himself: "Mom, Dad, are your sons useless? I can't even defeat myself, how can I succeed? Also, every month in the clinic, The rent is a life and death battle for me, I am so tired... Sometimes I really don’t want to hold on anymore... "
His father and mother looked at him with smiles on their faces, but said nothing.
Ning Tao's eyes were a little moist: "Yes, you are what I imagined. You don't know how to talk to me at all. Even if you talk to me, it is just what I imagined..."
Thinking suddenly stopped.
At this moment, Ning Tao seemed to understand something important. He had a shocked expression on his face. A few seconds later, he suddenly laughed like a maniac: "It's a very simple question, but I'm on a complicated and wrong path." Been gone for so long!”
He entered the inner world again.
The Nascent Soul was suspended above the small "reservoir". The moment Ning Tao entered the inner world, he also came down from the void and stood next to the Niwan Palace, looking at Ning Tao quietly.
"I understand." Ning Tao said.
"I figured it out." Yuanying repeated his words.
Ning Tao grinned.
Yuanying also grinned.
Ning Tao walked towards Yuanying and said as he walked: "You have grown up and are as strong as me. You are actually me. Before, I regarded you as an opponent, even an enemy that must be defeated. People must defeat themselves. , It depends not on strength, but on wisdom and understanding, are you right?”
Yuanying also walked towards Ning Tao and said the same thing.
Ning Tao quickened his pace, but his tone became calmer and calmer: "You are Nascent Soul. Only when you leave the body will I enter the out-of-body realm. Therefore, you must go out and I will stay."
Yuanying also quickened his pace and said the same thing.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Tao and his Nascent Soul met head-on. This time he didn't make any attack move, not even the slightest thought of attack. He didn't even think about Nascent Soul, he just walked forward. At that moment, he and Nascent Soul overlapped without any feeling of physical collision. After that, he continued walking towards Niwan Palace, while Nascent Soul walked towards the direction he came from.
Arriving next to Niwan Palace in a blink of an eye, Ning Tao stopped and looked back at Yuanying.
At the same time, Yuanying also stopped and looked back at Ning Tao.
Their eyes met each other, with the same determined and calm eyes.
Ning Tao smiled lightly, suddenly turned around, turned around and jumped into Niwan Palace.
Wow!
Ning Tao plunged into the Niwan Palace. Black and white spiritual energy came from all directions. His vision instantly fell into darkness, and then his consciousness. He felt as if he had fallen into a dark whirlpool. The whirlpool was spinning him rapidly, trying to take him into hell!
However, the whole process was over in just a second or two.
A subtle fluorescent light entered the eyes, which was the light emitted by the bones of the real dragon. Ning Tao turned around, and a young man sitting cross-legged on a rock came into his sight again.
That's himself.
The Nascent Soul leaves the body.
