Although Jing Li understood that Shi Ning was talking about him, he still felt weird.

"It's a pity that I haven't met Dao Ancestor yet." Shi Ning said regretfully.

Jing Li took a sip of tea and said silently: "I'll meet you."

Shi Ning nodded seriously, "Yes. After I officially take over the position of head, I will meet Dao Ancestor."

Jing Li nodded, and the two were silent for a moment. , Shi Ning asked: "How have you been in the past five years?"

"Very good."

Shi Ning took out a piece of mental magic, spread it out in front of Jing Li and said, "I have something to ask you."

"What's the matter? ?" Jing Li lowered his head and looked at the spread of Xinfa.

Shi Ning pointed to a place and said, "Can you see it?"

Jing Li: "Yes."

As soon as he said yes, Shi Ning suddenly raised his head and looked at Jing Li, "Can you really see it?"

Looking at Shi Ning Ning's questioning look made Jing Li wonder for a moment whether he had said the wrong thing. "Is there a problem?"

Of course there is a problem. After Yiye Xinfa recognizes its master, it stands to reason that no one else except Shi Ning can see the words on the scroll, but why can Jing Li see it?

Shi Ning did not answer Jing Li's question, but continued to ask: "Do you recognize the words on it?"

Jing Li carefully identified it and said, "No."

"Really not?"

Jing Li raised his eyes and said: "I really don't know you. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Shi Ning said succinctly: "The heart method recognizes its owner. Others should not be able to see the words on the heart method."

Jing Li said oh and looked at him. Although he was calm on the surface, he was actually shocked and asked, could this be a God-given marriage? No one can see it except Shi Ning, but he can see it. Isn't this destiny destined by God?

Shi Ning felt more and more that Long Yin's incident was related to Jing Li, "I have something that has been bothering me for a long time."

Jing Li was shocked, was he going to confess?

"What's the matter?" Jing Li asked.

Shi Ning frowned and said in confusion: "About the mental method."

Oh, it turned out to be a problem with the mental method. Jing Li felt a little disappointed.

Shi Ning continued: "Do you know the origin of the mind method?"

Jing Li thought about it and had an impression, "It is said to be a secret book left by the ancient gods and wandered to Cangshan."

This is similar to what Shi Ning knew.

"Every time I use my spiritual consciousness to explore my mind, I am always led to an illusion." Jing Li: "What illusion?" Shi Ning shook his head, his eyes full of confusion, "I don't know either." 

Jing 

Li: "What illusion?" 

Li became serious at this moment and asked, "Can I enter the illusion?" 

"I don't know either. Let's try it after the demon cultivator leaves?" 

Shi Ning had an intuition that Jing Li should know what was going on with the dragon's roar. 

It was dark at night, Shi Ning stood under the window, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, thinking about his thoughts. At this moment, Shi Ning seemed to smell a faint incense in the room. 

"Shan Nai, do you smell anything?" Shi Ning asked, but when he turned around, he found that Shan Nai was sleeping deeply. 

Shi Ning stood up with slightly unsteady steps, leaned against the window curtain, rubbed his head, and remembered what Yao Changze had said to him during the day. When he looked up again, Shan Zhi had disappeared. 

"Shanjie?" Shi Ning searched the room, but there was no trace of Shanjie. 

Instead, Jing Li's voice sounded at the door, "Shi Ning, are you in there?" 

Shi Ning opened the door, looking a little uneasy: "I'm here, but Shan Nai is gone." 

Jing Li reassured: "It's okay, this is an illusion. It's normal for Shan Nai to be away." 

"Shuntian's illusion? Then why are you there?" 

Jing Li explained patiently: "I was aware of Shuntian's illusion, so I followed him in." 

"Do you know how to get out? ?" Shi Ning asked. 

Jing Li stretched out his hand and gathered his spiritual power and said, "Just break it open." 

"No." Shi Ning stopped Jing Li's movement. 

"Why?" 

Shi Ning opened his mouth and was about to say what Yao Changze had told him in the morning, but when he thought about it, if they were really in Shuntian's illusion, every move would probably be known by Shuntian. So he instead used his spiritual consciousness to tell Jing Li about the matter. 

"Yao Changze once told me that you cannot use spiritual power to forcefully break the illusion." 

Jing Li frowned and keenly captured the key word, Yao Changze. He still remembered that Yao Changze had a crush on Shi Ning when they were at Fuxing Gate five years ago. 

"Why did he come to Chengtianmen?" 

Shi Ning hummed and looked at Jing Li in confusion. Is this the key point? Isn't the key point why you can't use spiritual power to break the illusion? 

But since Jing Li asked, Shi Ning also explained: "Hehuan Sect has already joined the demon cultivator." 

Jing Li reminded: "Since he is already a demon cultivator, his words may not be credible." 

Shi Ning also knew that and asked: "If we can't get out, will we be trapped and die here?" 

"Yes. But although it is an illusion now, we are actually entering the dream controlled by Shuntian. The time in the dream will be very long compared to the outside world. Quick. In short, we have spent ten years here, and it is only half an hour outside. Because of this, Shuntian has enough time to waste us." 

Shi Ning and Jing Li have already left Sui Yuyuan. There was no one outside, and it seemed that only Shi Ning and Jing Li were left in the empty Chengtian Gate. 

"We're not alone here, are we?" Shi Ning asked. 

Jing Li: "If Shuntian pulled other people into the dream, it's not just the two of us." 

Shi Ning planned to use spiritual power to detect whether there was anyone else in Chengtianmen. 

"There is indeed no one else." Shi Ning felt that manipulating spiritual power in the illusion was particularly tiring, and panted slightly. 

Jing Li noticed something strange about Shi Ning and asked anxiously, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" 

Shi Ning slowly leaned against the tree and shook his head, "I'm just a little tired." 

"You should rest, we still have more time anyway." 

Jing Li helped Then Shining stood up and just used his spiritual power to check if there was anyone else. Why was he so tired? Shi Ning stood up holding Jing Li's hand and suddenly realized something. 

"Yao Changze didn't lie to me." 

Jing Li: "What?" 

Shi Ning said with his spiritual consciousness: "I just suddenly understood why he reminded me not to use spiritual power." 

"In Shuntian's dream, we used If you don’t believe me, try it.” 

After hearing this, Jing Li held onto Shi Ning’s wrist and fed her spiritual power. Seeing that Shi Ning’s pale face softened a lot, he stopped and said: "That's true." 

Shi Ning said gratefully, "Thank you." 

Jing Li retracted his hand and said, "Nothing." 

"So I suspect that if we use spiritual power to forcefully break the illusion, we may only waste spiritual power in vain. " Shi Ning speculated.

Jing Li agreed with Shi Ning's view, but in fact if he tried very hard to break the illusion, he should be able to win, but he wanted to hear Shi Ning's opinion.

The two of them walked around the Chengtian Gate. Everything was exactly the same as in reality, except that it was just the two of them.

"It seems that Shuntian only created the illusion of Chengtianmen." Jing Li stood at the boundary of Chengtianmen and wanted to reach out, but it seemed that there was an invisible cover covering everything, and he could not get out at all.

Shi Ning's peripheral vision swept across the lush trees beside the barrier, and he reached out to take a fallen leaf and said, "Shuntian's dream must also require spiritual power to maintain."

Jing Li: "Of course."

Shi Ning looked at the green leaves in his palm. He said, "There's still plenty of time anyway, so why not take a break."

Jing Li: Huh?

"Aren't you going out?"

"There's no rush at this moment. I can't think of a way anyway, so there's no point in rushing. It's better to take a break." Shi Ning did not use his consciousness this time and said lazily in his voice.

Shi Ning took a break when he was told, and even took out a lot of mustard seeds and said happily: "I finally have time to plant spiritual plants."

Although Jing Li didn't understand what Shi Ning meant, he followed Shi Ning's lead. The movement begins shoveling the soil and spreading the seeds.

Shi Ning kept moving his hands and murmured: "I have long felt that the bare yard was unsightly. I couldn't plant before, but now I can do it without restraint. It's just a dream anyway."

The two of them really started to dream. Farmed.

Shuntian rubbed his eyebrows and looked at the movement of Chengtianmen from a distance, puzzled as to why farming started now. But before he was confused for long, he felt relieved and a mocking smile appeared on his lips. I had long heard that Shi Ning wanted to be a spiritual planter, but now it seemed that it was true. The new head of Chengtian Clan is actually a spiritual planter. From this point of view, the glory of Chengtian Clan may not be restored again in the future.

Shuntian figured it out quickly, and even watched the two people farming with relish. He originally wanted Shi Ning to be trapped alone, but he didn't expect that a fool would come in on his own initiative.

In this case, let's just stay trapped in a dream. Shuntian yawned and planned to take a nap.

Time passed quickly in the dream. In order to save spiritual energy, Shi Ning and Jing Li basically did their daily things like ordinary people. In addition, the most common thing the two of them do every day is farming and planting spiritual plants.

Three years have passed, and the entire Chengtian Sect has been planted with various spiritual plants by Shi Ning.

At first Jing Li thought that Shi Ning was just acting on a whim, but later he realized that everything Shi Ning did had a purpose. However, the two of them had a tacit understanding and neither mentioned the matter again. But I am still working diligently on the land, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. The two also became more understanding as they got along day by day.

On this day, Shi Ning and Jing Li sat together under the peach blossom tree, and the peach blossoms on the tree exuded a sweet fragrance. Jing Li noticed that Shi Ning seemed to be peeking at him intentionally or unintentionally today. During the three years of getting along, Shi Ning and Jing Li did not break through the layer of window paper, and the two lived together like good friends. However, Jing Li noticed that Shi Ning had become more intimate with him in recent days. Not only that, he also always looked at him secretly, but when he turned around, Shi Ning quickly avoided his sight.

Could it be that, maybe.

Sure enough, Jing Li heard Shi Ning say shyly: "Jing Li, I have something to tell you."

Jing Li was inevitably distracted, his heart was beating rapidly, and even his palms were slightly sweaty, pretending to be calm. "You said it."

Shi Ning hesitated and said, "You won't be angry if I tell you, right?"

Jing Li: "No."

Jing Li thought silently, Shi Ning was indeed too shy, why not take the initiative on his own? .

"I know what you want to say." Jing Li spoke first and looked at Shi Ning sincerely.

Shi Ning groaned, with an embarrassed blush on his face, "I didn't expect you to notice it."

Jing Li also hummed sheepishly, "I knew it a long time ago." Five years ago, Jin Ye Du Told me.

Shi Ning became even more embarrassed, "You wouldn't mind, would you?"

"Of course not." Why would the two of them mind if they were in the same mood.

Shi Ning looked at Jing Li expectantly, "You really don't mind?"

"Really." Even if Shi Ning wanted to become a Taoist partner with him now, he wouldn't mind.

Shi Ning was relieved and said with a long sigh, "That's good."

"Yeah." Jing Li could no longer suppress the smile on his lips. Why should he tell the elders like Ling Che that Daozu and the leader were together? ? So sorry.

"So when do you have time?" Shi Ning asked.

What time? Is it time to become a Taoist couple? You still need to make a good choice at this time and not be hasty. Jing Li thought seriously about whether Shi Ning would be in a hurry. In fact, it was not impossible if Shi Ning wanted to form a contract today. After struggling for a while, Jing Li said: "Look at you, I can do it."

Shi Ning leaned forward slightly and said happily: "Then let's do it today."

Jing Li: "Is it so fast?" Sure enough, Shi Ning is really good at it. Like me.

Shi Ning nodded and said: "Yes, it hasn't rained this year. If you can turn into a dragon and provide rain to irrigate the farmland for me, the sooner the better. Otherwise, these seedlings will die."
