398. The secret of freedom

Guan Yi opened her eyes, raised her head and glanced casually a few times.

Then she showed a look of surprise, because she was the only one left in the room. She immediately focused her attention on her formation and quickly scanned the entire practice room and the surrounding dozens of meters.

Nothing.

This made her shocked and angry. Ma En had quietly left here without knowing it was appropriate, and he had completely hidden it from her. In fact, she was not surprised that Ma En could show such ability. She did not expect that Ma En would not

Heed your own warning and leave.

In this case, he probably went directly to Yu Weijie.

Guan Yi didn't know whether he did this out of arrogance or because he didn't want to get involved, but no matter how he did it, it seemed particularly stupid in her eyes, and it turned her hard work of setting up the magic circle into a pure waste of resources.

waste.

She stood there alone and got angry for a while. Finally, she stamped her feet helplessly and decided to go out to find Ma En.

She casually reached into the Qiankun bag, took out a few pills and swallowed them directly, then stuffed three more under her tongue and cheeks, took out several kinds of talismans and hid them in her sleeves, and then took out four or five

Different defensive magic weapons.

After being fully prepared, she left the magic circle behind her and stepped into the white mist without hesitation.

Guan Yi walked towards the library where her third senior brother might be, using her spiritual power to walk swiftly in the mist transformed by her master. However, after only walking a few hundred meters, she noticed something was wrong. It seemed that she was getting further and further away from the practice room.

…

Is the surrounding fog getting thicker?

Although the mist created by the master is not always average in the world of cultivation, normally it will not be particularly rich. Especially now that he is in seclusion to refine spiritual treasures for his new senior brother, the mist should not gather.

That's right.

Has Yu Weijie already taken action?

Being so worried, all the magic weapons around her started to work, and she also raised her hand to take a picture of a talisman on her body.

Then, she accelerated her pace, but the fog continued to become thicker, which also made the girl more nervous and worried. It seemed that Senior Brother Yu Weijie had just cast a lot of Xiaoyao Sect's spells, but now she

But didn't hear any movement.

This is most likely because the battle is over, which means one of them may have lost.

It's even possible that one of them is dead.

Thinking of this, she became more and more anxious.

But before she found Yu Weijie, the surrounding fog began to become thinner again. After she jumped over the thickest dividing line and walked a few hundred meters forward, the fog almost completely dissipated.

The scene that appeared in front of her also made Guan Yi freeze.

Because there was a familiar wooden house not far in front of her, and a young and thin figure was standing in the yard chopping firewood. After noticing Guan Yi approaching, he raised his head and then exposed himself to her.

Smile:

"Junior sister, I've chopped all the spiritual trees you need for practice."

Looking at the young man, she whispered in disbelief:

"Senior Brother Du Jin..."

This figure is none other than Senior Brother Du Jin when he was a child.

What's going on? Is it an inner demon? Or have you fallen under the illusion of Senior Brother Yu Weijie?

Young senior brother Du Jin inserted the ax into the ground, stood up and looked at her and said:

"Long time no see. You've grown so big."

Guan Yi took two steps back:

"No, you are not Du Jin, he has already..."

"Dead." The young man spoke first, "I also know that I originally thought you would avenge me. Do you remember, after you became a disciple, I was the one who took care of you the most. No one can do anything without me.

bully you.

"But why do you stand in front of that guy Yu Weijie when he wants to avenge me?"

The young man stared at her, his face full of confusion and doubt.

She explained somewhat guiltily:

"I don't know, but he doesn't seem to be a bad person, and the master has accepted him as a disciple. I can't let senior brother Yu kill another senior brother of mine. Is this wrong?"

The young man sneered:

"Master? Do you think he really wants to take Ma En as his disciple? Do you think he really cares about his disciples killing each other? If he did, he wouldn't let me go to him to die. It's him.

He pushed me off the cliff with his own hands."

Looking at the boy in front of her who was exactly the same as in her memory, the girl shook her head heavily and forced herself to wake up.

"No, you are not Senior Brother Du Jin at all, you are Senior Brother Yu Weijie's illusion." She whispered.

The young man raised his eyebrows:

"How do you know I'm really dead? How do you know the ghost in front of you is not my ghost?"

Guan Yi told herself firmly:

"Your golden elixir has been crushed by Ma En, and your soul has long been gone."

Du Jin's face darkened slightly when he heard this, as if he didn't know his life or death before Guan Yi said this:

"Is that so? It seems that my three souls have indeed dispersed, but my seven souls may not have completely disappeared. If I remember correctly, the ultimate goal of practicing Xiaoyao Gong is to mix our soul, aura and body.

It becomes a happy mist.

"It's just like Master, he no longer has a spirit or a soul that can be attacked and seen. His soul has completely merged with his aura and body into the same thing, and it can't be distinguished at all.

"And I have also reached the perfection of the golden elixir. I am only half a foot away from the Nascent Soul. Although my three souls are still hidden in the golden elixir, my seven souls should have also turned into mist, but they are still in the golden elixir.

It was dangling inside, not integrated with my body.

"But when my three souls dispersed, my seven souls must have been collected by the master, so you can still see me."

Guan Yi looked at him and said:

"Brother, you and I both know that the three souls are us, and the seven souls are just bridges. If the three souls are gone, then you are no longer a human being. What I see now is just the afterimage of you who is still struggling. It's just because

You look so lifelike because of your aura.

"You are just the remaining memory of Tuan, not the real Du Jin, and there is no possibility of resurrection.

"Rest in peace, senior brother."

She advised sincerely.

Du Jin nodded:

"You are right, but my good junior sister, do you know why you can still see me?"

Guan Yi looked at him warily:

"Why?"

Du Jin said with a smile:

"My atomized seven souls were collected by the master, and he quietly sent them to you. You and the other two senior brothers and sisters have also reached the golden elixir, although they are not as far away from the Nascent Soul as I am.

Half a step, but perfection is only a matter of time.

"And at least four of your seven souls have also completed the atomization. What you may not know is that Master once secretly taught me a technique. This is why I did not learn other techniques, because I only learned Master's technique.

My secret skills have exhausted all my energy.

"The technique he taught me is to let me learn how to sneak into your golden elixir quietly and how to blend with other people's mist."

Guan Yi looked at him in surprise and said:

"What?"

Du Jin said with a smile:

"That's right, junior sister, I am in your golden elixir, staying around your other atomized four souls, and have even become entangled with them. Without the three souls, I am indeed just some residual memories and consciousness, with those lonely souls.

Like the wild ghosts in the wild ghosts, they have long since died.

"If I'm lucky, I may have been reincarnated, or maybe I have nothing left long ago. But as long as I stay in your golden elixir, integrate into your four souls, and stay around your three souls, I will

You can still survive."

Guan Yi said sadly:

"What's the use? Senior brother, you already know that you are dead. Even if your seven souls have not dissipated, these remaining things are just memories and remnants. They are no longer the real you. How can we practitioners

Can’t see through real life and death.”

Du Jin smiled miserably:

"See through life and death? How can I see through? If you didn't stop Yu Weijie from attacking Ma En, then why am I a useless wild ghost who has long since dispersed without the support of obsession, but you stood beside the murderer
