Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4189 (Four Thousand One Hundred and Eighty-Nine)

"Actually, your master sometimes also deceives himself. Have you noticed?" Cheng Yuhuan asked.

"It's not self-deception." Ning Duanye said, "People always need to find some ways to let go of some things. If Master calls this 'self-deception', then maybe some people need to learn to deceive themselves. Or, in other words, in the endless passage of time, some people will eventually learn to 'deceive themselves'?"

Cheng Yuhuan looked at the sunset again. This time the light was a little weaker than before.

"It seems that it is not far from dark." Cheng Yuhuan said.

"Yes." Ning Duanye said.

He took another look at the dead firefly on the ground, and then said to Cheng Yuhuan: "Even if the sun disappears, it will still rise tomorrow, whether we can see it or not. This firefly is different. It will never be able to shine again."

Cheng Yuhuan said: "But it can glow when it is alive. Its light illuminates some places, and perhaps, it also allows other lives to see the light."

Ning Duanye nodded and said, "If it didn't die because of something, then even if there is a spell that can turn back time, wouldn't it be difficult to change the fact that its life died at that moment? If that's the case, it won't be able to keep shining... When I think about it this way, it seems easier to figure it out."

Cheng Yuhuan did not directly answer his question, but just said: "Even if it changes temporarily, can it live forever? Can it shine forever?"

Ning Duanye said, "Master, do you want to tell me that everything is temporary?"

Cheng Yuhuan said: "I also want to say this to myself."

Next, Cheng Yuhuan formally told Ning Duanye about several secret techniques. After he performed some movements first, the two began to discuss.

He discussed with Ning Duanye some movements related to certain secret arts, intending to try to introduce some of the movements into other spells.

When the two talked about the effect of using a certain action for a certain spell, they tried it at the same time. When they tried together, a strong wind suddenly blew, and then yellow sand appeared.

The two seemed to have discovered something and continued to try.

After trying for a while, they stopped and all felt that they had gained something new.

"Master, this way, we may be able to accomplish things that couldn't be done with that kind of magic before." Ning Duanye said.

"Yes, I wondered if it could be done before," Cheng Yuhuan said, "but we tried it together before. I wondered how to make a strong wind first and then the yellow sand appear nearby when only one person was trying."

After discussing it for a while, the two came up with a solution and tried it separately.

When Cheng Yuhuan was trying, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and then yellow sand surrounded a certain place.

When Cheng Yuhuan stopped, Ning Duanye asked, "Master, are there other changes?"

Cheng Yuhuan said, "Try what I just tried by yourself first, and I'll see how it goes."

Ning Duanye nodded and said "yes", then tried it. The strong wind and yellow sand that appeared were similar to those when Cheng Yuhuan performed the ritual before.

After Ning Duanye stopped performing the ritual, Cheng Yuhuan said, "Various other changes should be possible, but they will probably be related to other situations. If we use another spell to combine with what we just did, we can use the yellow sand to prevent people who may have an impact on our ritual from approaching us."
