I created the Anomaly Control Bureau

Chapter 401. 398. The Secret Art of Freedom
Guan Yi opened her eyes, raised her head and glanced casually.

Then she showed a surprised expression, because she was the only one left in the room, she immediately focused on her formation and quickly swept across the entire practice room and the surrounding tens of meters.

Nothing at all.

This made her startled and angry. Ma En had already quietly left here without knowing the appropriateness, and she had completely concealed it from herself. In fact, she was not surprised that Ma En could show such a skill. Heed your own warnings and leave.

That being the case, he probably went directly to Yu Weijie.

Guan Yi didn't know if he did it out of arrogance, or because he didn't want to involve himself, but no matter what he did, it seemed particularly stupid to her, and it also made her work hard to set up the circle into a pure waste of resources. waste.

She stood there alone and got angry for a while, and finally stomped her feet helplessly, and decided to go out to find Marne.

She casually reached into the Qiankun bag, took out a few pills and swallowed them directly, then stuffed three more under her tongue and into her 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 making all preparations, she directly 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 like flying in the mist transformed by her master, but after only a few hundred meters she felt something was wrong, it seemed that as she got farther away from the practice room ...

The thicker the surrounding fog?
Although the mist created by the master is not equal to the spiritual energy in the cultivation world forever, but normally it will not be particularly strong, especially now that he is in retreat to refine spirit treasures for the new senior brother, the mist should not gather. That's right.

Has Yu Weijie already made a move?
So worried that all the magic weapons around her started to work, and she also raised her hand and took a picture of a talisman on her body.

Then, she quickened her pace, but the fog was still getting thicker, which made the girl more nervous and worried. It seemed that Senior Brother Yu Weijie had just performed a lot of Xiaoyaomen's spells, but now she But did not hear any movement.

This is likely because the battle is over, which means that 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 thin again. After she jumped over the thickest dividing line and walked forward for a few hundred meters, the fog almost completely dissipated.

And the scene that appeared in front of her also made Guan Yi freeze,
Because not far in front of her was a wooden house she was familiar with, and there was a young and thin figure standing in the yard chopping firewood. After noticing Guan Yi approaching, he raised his head, and then showed her smile:
"Junior Sister, I've chopped up all the spirit wood you need for your cultivation."

Looking at the young man, she whispered in disbelief:
"Brother Du Jin..."

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

What's going on, demon?Or did he fall under Senior Brother Yu Weijie's illusion?
The young senior brother Du Jin stuck the ax into the ground, stood up and looked at her and said:
"Long time no see, you've grown up so much."

Guan Yi took two steps back:
"No, you're not Du Jin, he's already..."

"Dead." The young man said first, "I also know, I thought you would avenge me, remember, I was the one who took care of you the most after you became a teacher, and no one can do anything without me." bully you.

"But why did you stand in front of Yu Weijie when he wanted to avenge me?"

The boy stared straight at her, with puzzlement and doubt written all over his face.

She explained with some guilt:
"I don't know, but he doesn't look like a bad person, and the master has already accepted him as a disciple. I can't let senior brother Yu kill another senior brother of mine. Is this wrong?"

The boy sneered:

"Master? Do you think he really wants to take Ma En as his apprentice? Do you think he really cares about his disciples killing each other? If he would, he wouldn't let me go to him to die. It's him 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, forcing 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 boy raised his eyebrows:

"How do you know I'm really dead? How do you know it's not my ghost?"

Guan Yi firmly told herself:

"Your golden core has been crushed by Ma En, and your soul has long been scattered."

Du Jin's face darkened slightly when he heard this, as if he didn't know his own life or death before Guan Yi said:
"Is that so? It seems that my three souls are indeed gone, but my seven souls may not be completely gone. If I remember correctly, the ultimate goal of practicing Xiaoyao Gong is to mix our soul, aura and body Into a carefree fog.

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

"And I have already completed the golden core, only half a foot away from Yuanying. Although my three souls are still hidden in the golden core, my seven spirits should have also turned into a mist state, but they are still in the golden core. Dangling, not merging with my body.

"But when my three souls were gone, my seven souls must have been collected by 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 still struggling, just because You look so lifelike when you have aura.

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

"Rest in peace, brother."

she said 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 seven souls that have been atomized were collected by the master, and he quietly sent them to your side. You and the other two senior brothers and sisters have also reached the Golden Core, although it is not as close as me to the Nascent Soul. Half a step, but consummation is only a matter of time.

"And at least four of your seven souls have also completed atomization, and you may not know that Master once secretly taught me a spell, which is why I didn't learn other spells, because only learning Master The mystical technique just took up all my energy.

"The technique he taught me is to let me learn how to sneak into your golden core 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'm in your golden core, staying around your other atomized four souls, and even entangled together. Without the three souls, I am indeed just some residual memory and consciousness. Like the wild ghosts in the soul ghosts, they have long since died.

"If I'm lucky, I may have already been reincarnated, or I may actually have nothing left, but as long as I stay in your golden core, blend into your four souls, and stay around your three souls, I will You can still live on."

Guan Yi said with a sad expression:

"Then what's the use, brother, you know that you are dead, even if your seven souls haven't dissipated, these remaining things are just memories and remnants, and they are no longer the real you. How can we practitioners Can't see through the real life and death."

Du Jin smiled bitterly:

"See through life and death? How can I see through? If you hadn't stopped Yu Weijie from attacking Ma En just now, then I, the wild ghost who is nothing, would have lost his obsession and dispersed long ago, but you stood beside the murderer. Behind him, firmly supported him.

"Why, did senior brother feel sorry for you before?"

Having said that, his tone also turned into a strong questioning.

Guan Yi looked at him and said:
"But Master has..."

"Still in Master!" Du Jin showed anger, "Who do you think caused me to fall to this point? Now that you know that I am Du Jin's remaining seven souls, not some illusion or demon, then I will Let me tell you straight away.

"Master knew that Ma En would kill me a long time ago. I won't lie to you. I did take the lead in the fight with Ma En, but it was not because your good brother was a demon with two faces. It was I who saw that Ma En had the heretical demon body.

"Then I remembered Master's words. After I realized Ma En's talent, the words he said to me privately before he sent me to fight for opportunities changed. Those words no longer inspired me, but became A blatant threat.

"He actually told me at the time that he wanted to take this Mann as his apprentice, and if he couldn't stop it, it would be his last chance to break through to the Nascent Soul, and I also know the inside story that you don't know, so I killed him right away."

Guan Yi looked at the afterimage of her senior brother with some discomfort and asked:
"What's the inside story?"

Du Jin smiled self-deprecatingly:

"Look at me now, you can see me because I practiced the secret technique he taught me.

"But guess why he taught me this secret technique."

Guan Yi's face turned pale instantly, because she had already thought of something.

Du Jin went on to say:

"That's what you think. The real function of this secret technique is not to allow me to send the remaining seven souls into your golden core after I die. Don't you think this is particularly stupid? I only do this because of my three souls. The soul has gone.

"The real function of this secret technique is to plunder all your atomized seven souls after you reach the consummation of the golden core, and directly turn all your skills and Taoism into my property. The secret of free and easy work.

"His purpose of atomizing your three souls and seven souls is not at all so that you can achieve immortality, but to make your souls and comprehended skills all become the spiritual mist form comprehended by him, so that he can You can easily manipulate your souls.

"Haven't you ever wondered why I'm so focused on my cultivation and never waste my energy on other things, because I know very well that those so-called spells and swordsmanship are meaningless at all, I just want to get close to the threshold of breaking through the Nascent Soul That's it.

"At that time, Yu Weijie's hard-working spells and Zhong Ruixue's mastery of swordsmanship will be mixed with their seven souls and swallowed by me. All the results of their practice belong to me, so I didn't practice any spells. .

"Actually, I have already basically practiced the secret technique, and I would be able to do it after a while.

"At that time, with Zhong Ruixue's kendo and Yu Weijie's understanding of the technique, I will be able to break through the Nascent Soul in one go."

Guan Yi looked at him as if she had never really understood him before:
"So you and Master originally wanted to use the few of us as a pill for your promotion?"

Du Jin corrected him sincerely:

"It's not you guys, but Zhong Ruixue and Yu Weijie, although I know you probably won't believe it, but I never thought of killing you.

"You can recall that I will not deliberately persuade you to practice these less important spells, but also deliberately let you disperse your energy on excessive paths, even to the extent that it will delay your practice.

"Because I just hope that you can cultivate to a state that is useless to my breakthrough, so that Master will not let me kill you. I don't have feelings for the two of them because we are indifferent, but because they can't get along with me. become friends.

"But you are different. You are more kind and simple than them. I really regard you as my junior sister. We have lived for so many years. You must know that I am not a cold-blooded monster. It is impossible for me to attack you.

"It's just that I really didn't expect you to cover up Marne."

Guan Yi lowered her head in shame:

"I thought..."

What Du Jin said was right, the advice he gave himself in terms of practice was not good for him, because the things he mainly learned were almost useless for breaking through to Nascent Soul, and they were technologies that were far away from the righteous path.

Seeing this, Du Jin immediately said:
"Junior Sister, but I still have a chance. You know that people's memory will be mixed in the three souls and seven souls. The purpose of Master entrusting me to you is to let you absorb my seven souls and the gold that I broke through. Dan has perfect experience and mastered this secret technique.

"You will also get my memory during this process, but you will definitely filter it out.

"But I don't want to become your nourishment, junior sister. I have never asked for anything in my life. I only ask you this time."

Snapped!
He knelt down heavily, looked at the girl and said:

"Let my seven souls dominate your soul, let the mist that turns into you melt into you, lend me your body and golden core, and let me complete my revenge on Ma En. As long as I can kill him, I will I will return my body to you.

"I will never break my promise."

Guan Yi stepped back while shaking her head:

"Brother, practitioners should not create blood light again, and you are already dead."

Du Jin looked at him gloomyly:
"I know I'm dead...

"But I still want to 'live', sorry, Junior Sister."
