Shi Ning was carefully helping to pack Jing Li's luggage in the room, while Jing Li was seriously thinking about what he could give Shi Ning outside.

In the middle of the night, Jing Li was practicing meditation in the courtyard. Not long after he closed his eyes, there were signs of turmoil in his consciousness.

Under the dark abyss, sixteen indestructible ice chains firmly locked the dragon's body, making it unable to move. A hoarse and low roar came from the dragon's throat, but as usual, all sounds would be swallowed by the abyss, and no one had responded to him for decades.

The dragon will not die, but it is not alive either. The chains clearly pass through the bones, and the bone-chilling chill reminds him of the endless suffering every moment. Day after day, year after year, there is no end.

The endless pain and loneliness constantly attacked Jing Li's consciousness. He suddenly opened his eyes, and his golden vertical pupils seemed to be possessed. This episode flashed through his mind countless times, but Jing Li was never locked under the abyss. This memory is more like a foreshadowing of Jing Li's future.

This has also been Jing Li's inner demon for many years. It seems that he has often dreamed about this episode since he became intelligent. For thousands of years, Jing Li has devoted himself to cultivation and has become unrivaled in the world of cultivation. Not only that, he also eliminates evil and promotes good, and is praised as a model of righteousness by hundreds of immortal schools, but he is worried that one day his dream will come true. He will be punished and trapped in the abyss.

In the dream, he seemed to be an evil dragon that had done all kinds of bad things and could only suffer in the abyss. But the dragon in the dream is almost completely unrelated to Jing Li in reality, but even so, this nightmare always haunts Jing Li and cannot be solved.

Jing Li transformed into a human form and sat on a lounge chair in the courtyard. This has been his habit for many years. As long as he thinks of being trapped under the abyss in dragon form, he will resist turning into dragon form. It seems that if he is in human form, his nightmare will never come true.

Jing Li often saw Shi Ning half-lying on a recliner, swinging around leisurely, without any worries. Maybe he had been tormented by nightmares for too long. Jing Li followed Shi Ning's example and leaned on the recliner, wondering if the pain would be alleviated a lot.

Maybe this posture was too relaxing and comfortable. Jing Li felt that the pain of being haunted by nightmares seemed to be much less. But there was still confusion in his eyes, looking at the crescent moon in the dark night. Would he really have such an ending?

Not long after Shi Ning fell asleep in the house, he came to the sea of ​​flowers again. It was so familiar to him once and twice, that Shi Ning no longer felt strange. As long as she follows Yi Ye's mental practice and breaks through, she will dream and come to this sea of ​​flowers, but this time the scene of the sea of ​​flowers does not turn into a desert like last time. Shi Ning walked aimlessly in the sea of ​​flowers for a long time without seeing even a single person. Not even the woman who taught him the whipping technique in his dream last time. Flowers of all colors poured into her eyes, but Shi Ning had no intention of appreciating them at all. She just vaguely felt that someone was waiting for her.

what exactly is it? Shi Ning couldn't remember it at all.

After walking in the sea of ​​flowers for who knows how long, Shi Ning seemed to finally see the end. He wanted to take another step forward, but his foot missed the point and his whole body fell suddenly.

Following a scream in his dream, Shi Ning suddenly sat up and woke up. He felt as if his whole body had been drained of energy, and he couldn't use any of his strength. Shi Ning buried her head in her hands and sighed silently.

This was one of the reasons why Shi Ning wanted to take out the soul-fixing needle and recall his past memories. The feeling of not knowing anything about the past is really terrible.

Shi Ning raised his eyes and suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a figure in the courtyard outside the window.

How could someone come in? Shi Ning's heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot. There was Feiyun's barrier in the yard, and the door was closed, which meant that there was no sign of the barrier being destroyed. Who was the person outside the window?

Shi Ning didn't dare to say anything. He opened his eyes wide and tried to identify what the person outside the window wanted to do. At the same time, he held the Wenfeng vine and looked out the window carefully.

The man outside the window was tall and slender, seemingly sitting on a recliner and not moving at all.

Shi Ning originally wanted to find Shan Nai and Jing Li first to confirm their safety. As a result, there was a black cat and a black dragon, and they were perfectly invisible once the sky was dark. I looked around the room and couldn't find these two, so I had to give up for the time being. Besides, with their cultivation levels, they couldn't beat them even if they woke up, so it was better not to alert them. After thinking about it for a while, Shi Ning decided to use the transmitting talisman first, and used his spiritual consciousness to inform Ling Che to find the best one to hit him. However, he had to search for the transmitting talisman among the mustard seeds, and there was also a soul-inducing bell on his wrist, which would ring whenever he moved it. .

Shi Ning firmly held the bell of the soul-inducing bell with one hand to prevent it from making any sound, then carefully took out the soul-inducing bell and placed it on the quilt. Then go search the mustard seeds to find the transmission talisman.

It's just that Shi Ning didn't see Shanjie on the bed. As soon as he put down the soul-inducing bell, Shanjie kicked the soul-inducing bell, making a tinkling sound.

This not only woke up Shan Nai himself, but also alerted people outside the yard. In this case, Shi Ning simply wanted to call Ling Che with the telegraph talisman, and at the same time summon the Wen Feng Vine to attack outside the courtyard.

Jing Li also didn't expect that Shi Ning would discover him when he turned into a human in the middle of the night. Shi Ning could not be allowed to inform others, especially the elders. Almost all the elders had seen him. Thinking of this, Jing Li snatched away Shi Ning's transmission talisman from the air. At the same time, he dodged Wen Feng Teng, but Wen Feng Teng was always difficult to deal with, and Jing Li focused on avoiding him. This gave Shi Ning time to light the candle.

The candlelight illuminated the entire Suiyu courtyard, and Shi Ning finally saw clearly the faces of the people outside the courtyard.

The man is tall and tall, with eyebrows falling into his temples. He has an outstanding appearance, but his face is a little pale. At this moment, Wen Feng Teng was holding Wen Feng Teng in one hand, with a hint of panic and embarrassment in his eyes.

Shan Nai grinned at the courtyard, and Shi Ning also looked at the people in the courtyard warily.

Jing Li lowered his hand holding the vine, looked at Shi Ning, and explained, "It's me."

"Jing Li?" Shi Ning shouted uncertainly after hearing the familiar voice.

Jing Li nodded, "It's me."

"Are you in human form?" Shi Ning confirmed again.

"Yes."

Shi Ning didn't seem to believe it, with doubt in his eyes. Why did he suddenly turn into a human form? He was caught off guard and without any warning.

Seeing Shi Ning's thoughtful gaze, Jing Li had no choice but to transform back into the form of a dragon, transforming from dragon to human again.

Shi Ning and Shan Nai watched dumbfounded. After all, this was the first time they saw a spiritual beast transform into a human form. Shi Ning was more curious, surprised and shocked, while Shan Nai was envious, jealous and hateful.

"Why can you also turn into a human form?" Shan Zhi asked unconvinced.

Jing Li thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because I devote myself to cultivation?"

Shan Nai stomped his feet and returned to the house unhappily.

Shi Ning and Jing Li were the only two people left in the courtyard. It was a completely different feeling to face a dragon than to face a living man.

Just like now, Shi Ning couldn't call Jing Li back to the room to sleep as usual.

Now that Jing Li has turned into a human form, it is no longer possible for him to rest in the same room as Shi Ning like in his spiritual beast form. After all, strictly speaking, he is a man now, not a spiritual beast.

It is inappropriate for both emotions and reasons.

There is indeed a side room in Suiyuyuan, but it has been unoccupied for a long time, and it has long been covered with dust. Shi Ning was thinking about letting Jing Li make do first?

Jing Li seemed to see through Shi Ning's thoughts, "I practice at night and don't need to rest."

"It's fine in the yard."

Shi Ning said, "If it's cold, you can go to the side room."

"I know."

"Well, let's go to bed early?" Shi Ning turned around and said.

"Go to bed early."

But when Shi Ning returned to bed, he didn't feel sleepy at all. In fact, most monks didn't need to sleep at night. Most of them meditate and practice as a rest. It's just that Shi Ning himself developed a habit in modern times. Finally, Shi Ning decided not to torture himself, but decided to sit up and do something else to divert his attention.

How can I describe this feeling? It's like raising a spiritual beast and suddenly turning into an extremely handsome man overnight.

It's always okay to get along with spiritual beasts.

Shi Ning can't get along with men.

The author has something to say:

When you turn into a human form, you lose the opportunity to sleep in the same room as your wife.
