Chapter 15: Killing the blood and carving the soul
Wen Ren'e woke up with the fighting spirit in the Burning Heaven Drum, and fought to the death with 21 masters with a desperate heart. I don't know how many of those righteous masters died, and how many of them could save their lives.
As for Wen Ren'e, he wanted to fight with all his strength, exert all his strength, challenge his limits, and test how strong he could be. He originally attacked his opponent without reservation, but was awakened by the sound of the war drum at the last moment.
Yin Hanjiang, who was in the realm of emptiness, beat the Burning Heaven Drum for Wen Ren'e, but he didn't fight to let Wen Ren'e die in battle.
Before the battle, he promised Yin Hanjiang that he would stay alive. Wen Ren'e never broke his promise. At the last moment, he retained some strength to protect his body, and only then did he barely keep his life and was saved by Yin Hanjiang.
Wen Ren'e held on for a breath, told Yin Hanjiang that he was still alive, and then lost consciousness.
He was too seriously injured, and his soul fell into a daze. He vaguely heard Yin Hanjiang's call, but his eyelids were heavy and he couldn't wake up.
In the plot, Wen Ren'e was also unconscious for a long time. After waking up, he saw Baili Qingmiao busy in front of him. He saw a ray of rising sunlight shining on Baili Qingmiao. Her expression was gentle and firm, and she looked so beautiful when she was determined to rescue people. Under that sunlight or divine light, the Demon Lord was moved.
But at that time, Wen Ren'e had not yet realized that his love calamity had come. He only coldly told this junior disciple of the righteous path that he could agree to one condition of hers. Baili Qingmiao was stunned, shook his head and said, "I just want you to survive."
Wen Ren'e suffered serious internal injuries, and was unwilling to go back to Shangqing Sect with Baili Qingmiao to heal his injuries. Baili Qingmiao had no choice but to use the communication talisman given to her by her master Qingrong Zhenren to tell her fellow disciples that she had important matters and needed to leave for a while.
Before the war between good and evil, Shangqing sent a jade slip to each of the disciples in charge of rescue, and urgently taught them some knowledge of healing and where some magical medicines grow. During the three months when Yin Hanjiang was in seclusion, Baili Qingmiao and the disciples were busy reciting the jade slip and practicing healing techniques.
She found that Wen Ren'e was too seriously injured, his Dantian and Zifu were in a mess, and even his life essence disappeared. In order to save people, Baili Qingmiao decided to take Wen Ren'e to Jiuding Mountain recorded in the jade slip to find the Nine Yang Soul-Returning Meat Ganoderma Lucidum that can bring back the dead to life. Wen Ren'e watched coldly as she carried him up Jiuding Mountain and fought with the strange beasts guarding the spiritual medicine. After getting the meat Ganoderma Lucidum and making it into soup, she didn't use it herself, so she fed it all to Wen Ren'e.
In the original book, after Wen Ren'e recovered from his injury, he looked at Baili Qingmiao's happy smile, and his heart finally fell. He did not reveal his identity, but left a token, telling Baili Qingmiao that she could use this token to call him if she was in trouble. No matter how difficult it was, Wen Ren'e would go through fire and water without hesitation.
Baili Qingmiao never thought about asking Wen Ren'e to repay her. She was very happy to save a life. After bidding farewell to Wen Ren'e, Baili Qingmiao returned to the mountain. Seeing He Wenchao, whose Nascent Soul was drained, her heart suddenly sank.
He Wenchao, who was seriously hurt and disheartened, asked Baili Qingmiao: "Junior sister, when I was injured, I just wanted to see you for the last time. Where were you then?"
Baili Qingmiao cried out of breath. At that time, she had clearly found the Ganoderma lucidum, but she did not use it to save her senior brother, but gave it to a stranger.
For He Wenchao, she asked the elders for ways to save people, and went to the Golden Coast Cliff alone. On the way, she "randomly met" Wen Ren'e, who had always been paying attention to her movements, and the two set off together.
This time, it was Yin Hanjiang who saved Wen Ren'e. He didn't know where the Ganoderma Lucidum was. Seeing that the Lord was unconscious, he could only lead people to the small valley where he practiced.
That was the small sect where Wen Ren'e was when he picked up Yin Hanjiang. Wen Ren'e was the leader of that small sect. After Wen Ren'e unified the magic path, this place was secretly given to Yin Hanjiang by him, and a formation was arranged. It was Yin Hanjiang's own place, and no one else knew about it.
When Wen Ren'e fought against the masters of the righteous path, the change of words of the Lord of the Temple to the Lord of the Temple made Yin Hanjiang alert. The people of the magic path are ambitious. From the guardian of the temple to the disciples, they all want to take your life while you are sick. If Yin Hanjiang took the seriously injured Wen Ren'e back to Xuanyuan Sect at this time, I am afraid that the first person he would kill would be Shu Yanyan.
When the Lord of the Temple was in its heyday, Xuanyuan Sect was a special force under his command; when the Lord of the Temple was seriously injured, Xuanyuan Sect was a place where people were eaten.
Yin Hanjiang didn't dare to take Wen Ren'e to Xuanyuan Sect. There were only two places in his mind. One was the border town where Yin Hanjiang grew up, and the other was the place where he was brought back by the Lord when he was young.
He held Wen Ren'e and sneaked into the bottom of the waterfall where he practiced. There was a small cave with abundant spiritual energy, which was suitable for healing.
The Lord was seriously injured. Yin Hanjiang put Wen Ren'e in a posture with his five hearts facing the sky, took out all the pills in the storage belt, selected some spiritual medicines with mild medicinal properties and replenishing spiritual energy, and stuffed them all into Wen Ren'e's mouth.
Wen Ren'e had no breath and couldn't swallow the medicine. Yin Hanjiang hesitated for a while, said "Excuse me" to the Lord, then pried open Wen Ren'e's jaw, used his true energy, and passed a breath of true energy into Wen Ren'e's mouth at a distance of an inch.
He was cautious, fearing that he would touch the pale lips of the Lord, and deliberately avoided lips and teeth touching.
After His Majesty took the medicine, Yin Hanjiang injected his remaining life essence into Wen Ren'e's body and circulated it for a cycle. He found that the life essence in His Majesty's body began to circulate actively and absorb the power of the medicine. He breathed a sigh of relief.
After relaxing, Yin Hanjiang realized that he was already unstable, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and fainted at Wen Ren'e's feet.
Back then, the old master of Xuanyuan Sect was a peak master of the Mahayana stage. He would be trapped in the illusion and go crazy when he struck the Burning Heaven Drum. Yin Hanjiang had just entered the Realm of Void Stage. He was backfired by the evil spirit contained in the Burning Heaven Drum when he forcibly used it, and his internal organs were severely damaged. But he was so focused on saving Wen Ren'e that he didn't care about his own injuries at all, and he didn't feel any pain. It wasn't until Wen Ren'e took a breath that Yin Hanjiang realized that he was exhausted.
Wen Ren'e woke up after absorbing the drug, and found himself in a dark and damp cave. A man in black was lying at his feet, his face pressed against the cold stone steps. He turned the man over and saw a touch of dark green moss rubbing against his face, like the victims used to set off the cruelty of ghosts in folk ghost stories.
Wen Ren'e took a deep breath, and his dantian seemed to be torn in pain. He took off his black robe and saw that his body was covered with scars, sword wounds, knife wounds, whip wounds, stick wounds... Almost all the scars caused by eighteen kinds of weapons were on it.
The injuries to the flesh were still a minor matter, but the destruction of the dantian purple mansion and the draining of the original life essence by the Seven Killing Halberd were the most serious. If there was no meat Ganoderma lucidum, such injuries would not heal even if they were raised for a hundred years.
He forced himself to help Yin Hanjiang up. His palms felt a little damp when they touched Yin Hanjiang's clothes. He untied the clothes and saw that Yin Hanjiang's flesh was torn apart . His already thin body seemed to be cut by some weapon and then sewn up with thin threads. It was difficult to find a piece of intact skin in the cracks.
The flesh was turned upside down wherever Wen Ren'e's eyes touched, which was shocking. He put his palm on Yin Hanjiang's heart, wanting to heal him, but he couldn't mobilize a trace of true energy. He could only sit down weakly against Yin Hanjiang and let out a desolate laugh.
For more than three hundred years, he had never been so embarrassed since he entered the Tao.
His injuries could not be cured at all. In the book, Baili Qingmiao took the meat Ganoderma lucidum to save him. Now, in order to get rid of the plot and give up the hope of surviving easily, Wen Ren'e chose an extremely difficult path.
"Protector Yin," Wen Ren'e said softly, "the most difficult time in my life was when I was searching for my family in the mass grave three hundred years ago."
The nine clans of the Wen Ren family had 273 bodies, all of which were decapitated. The criminals could not be buried, and their heads were burned after execution, and their bodies were dragged to the mass grave. When Wen Ren'e rushed back to the capital, it was already seven days later. The bodies had rotted and it was impossible to tell who was who.
He searched the mass grave day and night and dragged out 296 headless bodies, the youngest of which was only three months old. Except for the bodies with special figures, Wen Ren'e could not tell who they were.
There were also bodies of other prisoners among them, and Wen Ren'e didn't know which one was his family.
A family of loyal people, but they died without a complete body. The sixteen-year-old Wen Ren'e knelt in front of the 296 headless bodies and cried bitterly, with hatred in his heart that he couldn't vent.
The abbot of Wuxiang Temple had such powerful magic that Wen Ren'e couldn't help but think of things he had forgotten for three hundred years. He tilted his head and looked at Yin Hanjiang's closed eyes, with a faint smile in his eyes: "Yin Protector, do you know how happy I was when I walked by the mass grave and saw a pair of hands grabbing me?"
A hundred years ago, when Wen Ren'e thought he had long forgotten what happened that year, that little hand reached out to the corner of his clothes. He took the child out of the pile of corpses and touched his neck. It was not a decapitated corpse. He put his ear to the child's heart, and the faint heartbeat sounded like the sound of nature.
At that moment, the cold-hearted Wen Ren'e held the little Yin Hanjiang in his arms, and tears fell from his eyes that he himself could not detect.
It was as if the feeling of powerlessness at the age of sixteen was vented at this moment.
He finally saved a life.
Wen Ren'e grabbed Yin Hanjiang's wrist. The child he saved that year was about to die.
This silly child was already seriously injured, but he still forced his own life essence to Wen Ren'e, cutting off his last ray of life.
"Yin Hanjiang, if I can save you once, I can save you a second time. If I don't allow you to die, you won't die." Wen Ren'e's face darkened and he looked at the magic sword next to Yin Hanjiang.
Yin Hanjiang never put the sword into the storage magic weapon, and stubbornly became a sword-holding guardian, and this sword has its own consciousness.
After Wen Ren'e entered the Tao, he stole a lot of mental methods in the magic way. Among them, one method was the most difficult to cultivate, but now it is just right.
"Your name is Chi Ming." Wen Ren'e said to the magic sword.
He threw this sword to Yin Hanjiang casually that year and never told him the name of the sword.
Because calling out the name is to awaken the consciousness in the magic sword.
When the Red Nether Sword heard someone calling its name, it trembled slightly, and it took the initiative to leave the sheath and floated in front of Wen Ren'e. Countless strange patterns appeared on the sword, which Yin Hanjiang had never seen before.
Wen Ren'e looked at the sword and recited the spell, and the same patterns as the Red Nether Sword appeared on his body.
The Seven Killing Halberd, his life-long magic weapon, felt what Wen Ren'e was going to do, and it started to buzz. Wen Ren'e raised his hand slightly and said to the Seven Killing Halberd, "Don't make trouble."
The Seven Killing Halberd trembled unwillingly for a few times, but was finally suppressed by Wen Ren'e and quieted down.
The Red Nether Sword turned into countless blood swords, and with Wen Ren'e's spell, it fiercely pierced into the patterns on Wen Ren'e's body. The dense blood swords nailed him to the cave, and the blood slid down the stone wall, dripping on Yin Hanjiang's face.
Yin Hanjiang's eyelashes trembled painfully for a few times, but he was unable to open his eyes after all, and was unable to see the Lord he wanted to protect with all his heart, cutting blood with the Red Nether Sword, and embarking on a road of life and death.
Wen Ren'e's heart was pierced by thousands of swords, but the spells in his mouth did not stop. He slowly raised his hand and drew a formation in the air with difficulty, the same as the patterns on his body.
The Heart Blood Soul Locking Formation, after the formation was drawn, the blood light formation merged into Wen Ren'e's soul.
Cut the blood with the body, carve the soul with blood!
The Red Nether Sword flew out of Wen Ren'e's body. The moment the blood sword left the body, Wen Ren'e's body "bang" turned into blood mist and dissipated in the cave.
The Seven Killing Halberds let out a mournful cry, and the sixth star of the Southern Dipper gradually became stained with blood.
A quarter of an hour later, the blood mist gradually condensed into a human figure. At the moment when the soul and body disappeared, Wen Ren'e endured the severe pain of the shattered soul and resolutely completed the blood-cutting formation.
In the world of cultivation, there is a lost heart method called the Blood-cutting Technique.
The practitioner needs to draw blood patterns on himself, destroy his body and soul with his own hands, and practice the blood cultivation method at the moment before death, completely merging the body and soul into one. From then on, the body and soul are one, and as long as there is a drop of blood left in the world, he will be immortal.
The blood cultivation technique has only been mastered by one person in tens of millions of years. It is not that it is not powerful enough, but that it is a technique of life and death. Without absolutely strong faith, it is impossible to endure this kind of pain.
After practicing, no matter how serious the injury is, as long as there is enough spiritual energy, it can be recovered.
Wen Ren'e put on the black robe that was thrown on the ground, and the pain of cutting his soul with his own hands still remained in his body. He frowned slightly, took out the elixir from the Qiankun in his sleeve and swallowed it.
After his body recovered by 50%, Wen Ren'e helped Yin Hanjiang up, injected the true essence he had just obtained into Yin Hanjiang's meridians, and forced out the evil spirit in the Burning Heaven Drum in his body.
In the next few months, Wen Ren'e and Yin Hanjiang were in a small cave, absorbing spiritual energy and then transferring it to Yin Hanjiang, repairing his injured meridians bit by bit.
Qiu Congxue, who was far away, was carried on Baili Qingmiao's back, and the two were climbing a mountain.
Qiu Congxue fainted after saying to Baili Qingmiao, "Don't worry about me, don't take me back to your sect." She was more seriously injured than Wen Ren'e. The Buddha's light hurt the ghost cultivator too much. All the wronged souls in her body were transcended, and she couldn't use any power at all.
Baili Qingmiao saw that Qiu Congxue was unwilling to go back to the sect with him, and thought that she was too seriously injured to be cured and didn't want to face her fellow disciples, so he made up his mind to save this fellow Taoist.
After Baili Qingmiao reported the situation with the communication talisman given by his master, he tied the unconscious Qiu Congxue on his back and rushed to Jiuding Mountain.
Jiuding Mountain is said to be a Taoist temple for immortals, and even Mahayana cultivators will be suppressed into mortals here.
Baili Qingmiao couldn't fly, and the cliff was very steep. She gritted her teeth and held on to the vines with tears in her eyes, climbing up.
Along the way, she fell countless times, and her face and body were covered with scars. She thought about giving up, but when she thought of the Taoist friends on her back waiting for her to save her, and the people she couldn't save in the battle between good and evil, Baili Qingmiao gritted her teeth and mustered up the courage to continue climbing.
Finally, she climbed to the top of the mountain, and she was already dying.
The meat Ganoderma lucidum is good at hiding, and ordinary people can't find it. Baili Qingmiao lay half-dead on the top of the mountain. The meat
Ganoderma lucidum thought she was dead, and was attracted by her divinity. It popped its head out of the soil and wanted to eat Baili Qingmiao. Another spirit snake that had been guarding the meat Ganoderma lucidum crawled over. It saw the meat Ganoderma lucidum appear and bit the meat Ganoderma lucidum. The snake and the Ganoderma lucidum started to fight.
Baili Qingmiao was awakened by their voices, and was overjoyed to find the meat Ganoderma right in front of her. She spared no effort to kill the spirit snake, hugged the meat Ganoderma, and stewed it with the spirit snake.
The fragrance of the meat Ganoderma healed Baili Qingmiao's injuries and helped her advance from the fifth level of the Golden Core to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Stage.
If Baili Qingmiao drank the meat Ganoderma soup, she would be able to ascend immediately. But she did not covet the elixir, but soaked
Qiu Congxue in the soup. Seeing that flesh had grown on her body, she said happily: "So you are a girl." After Qiu Congxue's internal organs grew fully, Baili Qingmiao fed Qiu Congxue all the soaking soup.
Qiu Congxue's realm instantly returned to the Mahayana stage, his face was ruddy, and he looked very healthy.
When Qiu Congxue woke up, he saw a pretty and beautiful woman looking at him with her chin in her hand, her eyes full of unpretentious joy: "Senior, you are finally healed."
Healed? Qiu Congxue sat up and suddenly felt something was wrong. She carefully checked and found that she had gained weight.
At this time, a sentence emerged in Qiu Congxue's mind - he saw Baili Qingmiao's concerned eyes, and the pot of meat and ganoderma soup that was all fed to him, and he couldn't help but sighed resignedly: "This time it's over."
Although he didn't know where this sentence came from, Qiu Congxue nodded in agreement and said: "It's over."
"What's over?" Baili Qingmiao blinked and looked at Qiu Congxue innocently.
"This altar master is a ghost cultivator. In order to cultivate to the Shura path, he took the initiative to devote himself to the hungry ghost path and sacrificed his body to feed the ghosts. Only then did he realize the realm of the Mahayana period." Qiu Congxue looked at Baili Qingmiao with a fierce look in his eyes.
Baili Qingmiao realized that something was wrong. He took a few steps back and fell to the ground. He said tremblingly: "Senior, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong?" Qiu Congxue stepped forward, pinched Baili Qingmiao's neck with warm fingers, and said hatefully, "I am a ghost cultivator. I gave up my flesh body with great difficulty, and you grew all the soup for me. I will strangle you to death!"
