Chapter 233: Why is the Suspension Technique a Way to Restore Life?
"This guy...have you seen him somewhere before?" Long Qi asked, pinching his chin as he leaned close to the Nine-Colored Deer and carefully examined it. He tried hard to recall, but he could not remember where he had seen him before. He just felt that he was very familiar with it.
Banxia also had a sense of déjà vu about it, but she couldn't tell where she had seen it for a while. She could only respond while, like Long Qi, pondering over the Nine-Colored Deer.
So, Long Qi and Ban Xia surrounded the Nine-Colored Deer and examined it carefully, discussing with each other from time to time, and then stared at the Nine-Colored Deer, as if they wanted to see something from it, which was very funny.
However, the victim, the Nine-Colored Deer, seemed unusually calm. He just stared with his big watery eyes, lying quietly, looking extremely noble, and was not affected by the two men at all.
Xinyi and Liu Xia were surrounded by a group of spiritual beasts.
Liu Xia let it go, after all, he was already familiar with those little spirit beasts, and he was a good-tempered person, always with a smile on his face, and looked harmonious.
But Xinyi seemed a little uncomfortable.
Xinyi usually had a cold face, and his expression rarely changed when something happened. It was no surprise that he was called a cold-faced demon. But for some reason, those spirit beasts were very happy with him, and they gathered around him and asked him questions.
And Xinyi didn't seem to be disgusted. Although he still had a blank expression on his face, he answered all the questions of the little spirit beasts. He even protected some very small spirit beasts with great care, for fear that they would be trampled.
“They are a good group of friends.”
Lingxiang was looking at the few people with a smile, and no one knew what she was thinking. Suddenly, Yao Ji at the side spoke, with a warm look on her face.
Yes, the experiences along the way seemed to have made Lingxiang see many things clearly. Whether it was Long Qi, Xinyi or Zhao Wuyang, she felt guilty at first, and even distrusted Xinyi, but now they have become life-long friends.
This is the first time except for the senior brothers from Yuanqing Sect, but this feeling seems to be different from the feelings I have for my senior brothers.
In the past, she always felt that life is short, only ten thousand days, and it will pass in the blink of an eye. Why should she be tied to other people? In the end, it will only leave sadness for both herself and others.
That's why, although I can be considered a half-old man in the world, I have always been a playboy and have never been dependent on anyone, let alone had any intimate behavior with anyone.
But now, everything seems different.
She could no longer be like she used to be, carefree because she had someone to rely on. On the contrary, she had concerns and people whom she wanted to keep even if she was unable to do so.
She never wanted them to fall into despair because of her again.
"Yes!" Lingxiang smiled and sighed, "Luckily, I have them. Even if there are things I cannot get, I have no regrets in this life."
Fairy Yao Ji shook her head and said, "As a mortal, don't easily say things like 'no regrets in this life'."
Lingxiang was very confused: "What do you mean?"
"Whether it's a god or an immortal, they still have obsessions in the sea of eternal life, let alone humans? God doesn't give them more years, and human life span is short. Although youth is fleeting, the flow of time never stops, and there is no regret at every turn. Isn't that the meaning of life gone?"
"Only when you are content can you be happy forever!" Lingxiang sighed, thinking of her previous experience.
If he had not been obsessed with his remaining spiritual roots, the group would not have encountered these life-threatening dangers.
Fairy Yao Ji shook her head again: "Anyone who says he is content is just dying. If he is born content, why would he suffer the pain of reincarnation? As a human being, greed, anger, ignorance, hatred, love, evil and desire are inevitable, and there is no need to worry about it. It is just normal."
"So, the fairy also has something to ask for?" Lingxiang didn't understand. Since Fairy Yao Ji had already attained enlightenment, how could she say such words? And what could she ask for?
But Yao Ji did not answer her, but said: "You really look like Tumi."
Lingxiang knew that Fairy Yao Ji must be acquainted with her mother since she could say that, but why did she have to mention her mother at this time?
Just when Lingxiang was puzzled, she heard Fairy Yaoji speak again: "Your mother spent her whole life seeking a way to save the world, but she didn't expect that the so-called salvation was nothing but empty talk." Lingxiang had heard this from her fellow apprentices, so her mother traveled the world and risked her life in Yunmeng. But she was just looking for a way to repair her spiritual roots, how could she be like her mother?
Lingxiang believes that she has no intention of helping the world, and does not care about the people like her mother does.
Besides, where does the false talk come from?
"Your spiritual roots are unclear, so you can only practice the five elements, but you only focus on water techniques. Even the ice array and sword array are just water-touching techniques. They can only protect yourself, but have no power to hurt others."
Water Mystic Arts, if one does not have a profound cultivation base, are mostly incapable of harming others, and this is known to all practitioners. Therefore, very few people practice it, and even those with the Five Elements Water Spiritual Roots only use it as a stepping stone to improve their cultivation base.
But how did Fairy Yao Ji know all these things?
"You followed me?" Lingxiang blurted out, but suddenly felt that this was too rude, so she quickly stood up and apologized.
Fairy Yao Ji didn't care and just waved her hand.
In fact, what Lingxiang didn’t know was that Fairy Yao Ji had known about it since they set foot in Yunmeng.
First she rescued Liu Xia, and then she ordered the Yunmeng demon to find a way to lure Banxia into the cave. Even if it was a false beast, it was she who sent it away.
But she had been observing in secret, she wanted to understand Lingxiang.
As she expected, Lingxiang was as kind and persevering as Tumi.
"What Tumi has practiced is all about saving people, and he has never used any method to hurt people."
Hearing this, Lingxiang was stunned.
She didn't know why Fairy Yao Ji was so sure. If it was true as she said, then what did her mother do to the Demon King back then?
Isn't it the spell of nightmare?
But Han Yang saw it with his own eyes!
"What you see and hear may not be true." Fairy Yao Ji did not explain. She only said this and then said no more, leaving Lingxiang in a daze.
If it may not be true, then how can it be true?
Lingxiang fell into deep thought. She kept thinking about it, but she couldn't figure out what the so-called truth was.
Wait, the old mountain god of Fengwu Mountain once said that the recipe for the Heaven-Restoring Pill came from the hands of Fairy Yaoji, so...
Lingxiang looked up at Yaoji, and Yaoji seemed to know what Lingxiang was going to ask. Before she could open her mouth, she said, "I never said that it was a recipe for resurrection, and there is no such elixir in the world. It was just Tumi's wishful thinking at the beginning."
how can that be possible! ?
Although I was still young at that time, I vaguely remember that my mother did cast a curse using me as a sacrifice. After a period of chaos, I came back to life.
No, if you look at it this way, how could my mother have died?
……
"It is impossible to turn back the sky with a thread, and it is all in vain for a fool to dream."
……
Lingxiang's eyes suddenly trembled, and she burst into tears in a moment.
She finally understood the meaning of the hanging thread technique that her mother had written on the pill recipe!
No wonder she was able to leap into the foundation-building stage at the age of seven even though she clearly had a residual spiritual root and had not practiced hard. It was because her mother passed on her cultivation to her!
If one does not have the ability to cultivate, one cannot take the Huitian Pill, and the effect of the Huitian Pill is only to lead life into the body!
It was a life-for-life method! My mother exchanged her life for mine!
Mother fooled everyone!
