Utterly Ignorant

Chapter 34: The Tribulation of Delusion

Views:

"Oh?" There was finally a little fluctuation in Lin Chaosheng's eyes, but that was all.

The more powerful and deep pressure crushed Mu Lin fiercely. Mu Lin's whole body trembled, and she could faintly hear the sound of her bones being dislocated. On the ground around her, the dead leaves were instantly crushed into dust.

"Do you know that I am the Dragon King of the North Sea? Oh, whether I am or not, do you know if I can kill a mere immortal?"

Above the Supreme Immortals are the Golden Immortals, the Daluo Golden Immortals, and then the Immortal Lords. Their strengths differ by three levels, and each level is a world of difference. If the North Sea Dragon Lord wanted to kill Mu Lin, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.

This damn North Sea Dragon King, his brute force defeated ten others with his absolute strength, making her too passive.

Mu Lin's expression remained calm. She endured the pressure from across levels and slowly took off the white jade pear blossom hairpin from her hair, letting her black hair flow freely.

"Lord Long, let's be frank. Lin Chaosheng is just your identity in this life. You spent all your efforts in carving this white jade pear blossom hairpin in your previous life. Although your mortal body cannot be nourished by spiritual energy, it is not an ordinary thing."

The Dragon King of the North Sea is the only one among the four dragon kings to advance to the rank of immortal king. His status is above that of other dragon kings, so he is respectfully addressed as "Dragon King".

"Heh..." The Dragon King of the North Sea seemed to want to see what she could come up with.

"At first glance, the carvings are just ordinary pear blossoms, but upon closer inspection, they are the pure snow and dusk gauze pear blossoms that are unique to the North Sea Dragon Palace. In addition, I can recognize Xuanyou Hanbing's knowledge and the majestic water-based immortal power at a glance... Although I don't know the deep meaning of the Dragon King's two reincarnations, there is no doubt that you are the Dragon King of the North Sea."

The North Sea Dragon King narrowed his eyes, and was surprised that the little girl had guessed it almost right.

Mu Lin continued, "My name is Mu Lin, my master is the real person Zhechuan from Yingzhou. If you kill me, you will be in trouble. Of course, my master is not with me now, so he may not know even if you do it. But the relationship between master and disciple is subtle and secretive. Are you so sure that he won't know? You have reincarnated into the mortal world several times, so you must have important things to do. If you cause trouble for Beihai, it is not what you want, right?"

Lin Chaosheng, no, it should be Beihai Dragon King Mingye, only looked at her straight in the eye at this moment: "You are very smart, even a little like an old friend of mine. But smart people are often misled by their own intelligence, because they are complacent and don't know that disaster is coming. What you said is true, but my Beihai is not afraid of Yingzhou. I don't have to care so much if I want to kill you. Mu Lin, you have to know that the living should show the value of living."

Mu Lin said frankly: "... I have said everything I should say. If you insist on killing me, I have nothing to say."

"Girl from Yingzhou, you know exactly what I want to hear."

Mu Lin could indeed guess something. The North Sea Dragon King probably wanted to know why Ming Yijian hated him and wanted to understand her experiences over the past hundred years.

Mu Lin shook his head: "This is a matter between you two, I'm sorry I can't tell Lord Long."

Yijian had been with her for eighteen years, and she couldn't reveal all her secrets to the Dragon King of the North Sea without Yijian's knowledge.

Unexpectedly, Mingye did not force it: "Do you know how to make her sober?"

Mu Lin looked at him in surprise: "I might give it a try, but I'm not sure Yi Jian won't lose his mind again after seeing Long Jun."

Ming Ye was silent for a moment, "Let's leave here first."

Mu Lin looked at the unconscious mortals on the ground and found the situation quite troublesome.

"These mortals..."

"They are fine. When they wake up, they will forget everything that happened."

A boss is a boss, and his methods of solving problems are simple and crude. If it were her, she would not be able to erase the memories of so many people in an instant.

Mu Lin followed Ming Ye on the clouds and flew to a nearby hilltop. Ming Ye waved his hand to gather a pile of straw and gently placed Ming Yijian on it. Then a dark light emanated from his body.

Mu Lin blinked and watched the North Sea Dragon King transform into his childhood state—a little boy of seven or eight years old.

To be precise, it was a dragon boy of about seven or eight years old. He had small translucent black horns on his head, black hair to his ears, and black vertical pupils that were cold and noble. He looked similar to Ao Xin before, but his aura was much stronger than Ao Xin.

Tsk, the young dragons are so good looking...

Xiao Mingye, who still had a paralyzed face, spoke in a crisper voice, not seeming so oppressive: "You can start now. There is no need to tell her my identity."

Mu Lin: “…” You really know how to play.

A row of acupuncture needles of varying thicknesses and sizes appeared in the air, emitting a faint blue glow.

Xiao Mingye was slightly surprised. It was the first time he saw a magical object used as an acupuncture instrument.

Before giving acupuncture, Mu Lin carefully observed Ming Yijian's complexion and used his spiritual sense to feel her pulse. He determined that she had been overly stimulated in a short period of time, causing her liver fire to disturb her mind, causing her to become possessed and lose her mind, but that she was not seriously ill.

The master once told her that Yi Jian was able to become an earthly immortal by drawing on the blood of the underworld and the spiritual energy of the Yingzhou fairyland. She solidified her ghost form, but could not truly survive the seven tribulations of becoming an immortal, so she could not be considered a true earthly immortal.

Mu Lin's divination skills were not good enough, so she begged her master to do a divination for Yi Jian. The master agreed and told her the eight characters: life and death are easy to overcome, but the calamity of the heart is difficult to overcome.

The calamity of delusion, being trapped in the mind and using consciousness as the law, is a dangerous calamity. If you cannot overcome it, you will continue to fall into your own world; but if you overcome it, you will be able to see the true nature of the world and will not be confused by all kinds of illusions in the world.

Yi Jian was so shocked after the first encounter with Lin Chaosheng... Mu Lin then realized that Lin Chaosheng was Yi Jian's calamity, and the most difficult calamity for her to overcome.

This is Ming Yijian's fate, and she can only decipher it by herself. Becoming an immortal is difficult, and there is no written rule. If she is stubborn and falls into it, she will only end up dead.

Mu Lin sighed, cut his finger and dripped a drop of blood onto Ming Yijian's forehead, which then glowed and disappeared. Guessing that Ming Yijian could withstand the stimulation of the mysterious cold ice, Mu Lin began to acupuncture the corresponding meridians on her hands and head to strengthen the body and eliminate evil.

After a while, the ice needles dissipated, and Ming Yi saw that the red mark at the end of his eye had faded visibly, and the terrifyingly long nails had returned to normal.

"Long Jun, Yi Jian will wake up in a while."

Mingye's eyes never left Ming Yijian. Hearing this, he nodded: "Thank you."

Mu Lin looked at him in surprise. This arrogant Dragon King actually knew how to thank others

Ming Ye was still looking at Ming Yijian. Mu Lin walked to a tree nearby, leaned against the rough bark, closed his eyes and rested.

Giving acupuncture to Ming Yijian consumed a lot of her energy.

Half an hour later, Ming Yi saw Youyou wake up. She looked up and saw a black-haired boy standing beside her against the light, staring at her with black vertical pupils, and the emotions in his eyes were complex and dark.

Ming Yi blinked, feeling vaguely familiar...

Her consciousness gradually became clear, and she seemed to realize something. She suddenly widened her eyes and a scream pierced the sky.

"Ahhh! Monster!!!"

Mu Lin opened his eyes and saw Ming Yijian rolling down the straw stack. Ming Ye stood aside with a dark face and veins on his forehead throbbing.

When Ming Yi saw her, he felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw and immediately rushed over to grab her arm.

Mu Lin: “…”

"Alin, Alin, there's a monster! This monster looks like Ao Xin, is he in the same group as him? He's here to catch us..."

"Uh, he's not, he is..." Mu Lin was a little stunned. She didn't expect Ming Yijian to have such a rich imagination.

That kid Ao Xin

Ming Ye's eyes flashed, and he quickly took over the conversation: "I am Ao Xin's uncle, and I am here to apologize to you two on his behalf. Ao Xin has offended me before, and I hope you will forgive me."

"Is that so?" Ming Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at Mu Lin suspiciously.

"Yeah." Mu Lin nodded helplessly.

The Dragon King of the North Sea should not be lying...right? "Six Realms Miscellaneous Notes" records that he and the Dragon King of the East Sea are indeed closely related.

"I am Mingye, a member of the North Sea Dragon Clan. I have some friendship with Master Zhechuan, so I should take care of you. The mortal world is full of good and bad people, so I will stay with you two from now on."

Ming Ye knew that Ao Xin, who was always fighting chickens and dogs, must have provoked Yi Jian and the others. When he brought his wife back, he would call Ao Xin to deal with him slowly.

What kind of trick was this? A dragon was going to travel with them? Ming Yijian almost choked on his own saliva.

She waved her hands repeatedly: "No need, no need, Master Mingye, you don't have to be polite. The two of us can walk freely in the mortal world. Master, you are busy with all kinds of things, how can you accompany us to make trouble?"

Mu Lin remained silent. She didn't want this evil god to follow them, but it was not easy to get rid of him.

Sure enough, Ming Ye raised his eyes calmly, "Young friend Ming, do you dislike Ming Ye? Chasing people away is not the way of entertaining guests in Yingzhou. Firstly, Ye has nothing to do, so it is no big deal for him to stay in the mortal world for a year or two. Secondly, mortals are weak, and Ye can supervise the two young friends here to prevent them from being impulsive and hurting innocent people and making big mistakes."

When Ming Yi saw him, Mu Lin said: "..."

Now that things have come to this, there is no way to stop him from following.

Mu Lin whispered something to Ming Yijian, who immediately nodded in agreement: "In that case, thank you very much, Master Mingye."

Mingye's ears moved, and he said calmly: "You're welcome, just call me Mingye."

He caught what Mu Lin said: I can't beat him, so just give in.

His little wife is still so... sensible. A smile flashed in Mingye’s eyes.

Mu Lin regretted it now, very much. If she had read her fortune before leaving Yingzhou and changed her plan, she wouldn't have been entangled by the North Sea Dragon King and ended up in a weird threesome.

Ming Yijian walked in the middle, Mu Lin to his west, and Ming Ye to his east. However, Ming Yijian always leaned to the west, and before he knew it, he was already two steps away from Ming Ye.

The atmosphere became a little awkward.

Fortunately, Ming Yijian was a woman with a broad mind. After a while, she couldn't hold back her words and started chatting with Mu Lin.

"Ah Lin, you don't know, when I woke up, I met Mingye's big eyes, I was so scared that I even forgot the nightmare completely!"

"Ah Lin, do you know that I actually dreamed about him? In my dream, I attended his coming-of-age ceremony with you. Oh my god!"

Mu Lin felt relieved, glanced at Ming Ye inconspicuously, and casually said: "Then why don't you chop him to pieces if he's not alive?" He felt a little happy after saying this.

Seeing that no one noticed her abnormality, Ming Yi waved his hands in frustration: "Don't mention it. In the dream, I pounced on him, but before I could show my power, I was entangled by something, and then my eyes went black... Alas..."

"The things in dreams are bizarre, there's no need to take them seriously." Ming Ye suddenly interrupted.

Ming Yijian looked at him, sighed helplessly, with a look on his face that said "you don't understand anything."

She then sighed to Mu Lin: "Dreams are hard to come by, and even harder to make them come true."

Mu Lin was helpless: "If you sleep less, you will get what you want one day."

"I'm not going to sleep anymore. I'm still waiting to scratch his thief's face... Hmm? Why is it a bit cold? Is the autumn wind blowing from the east?"

Ming Ye looked normal, but the air pressure around him was much lower.
