Full level of enlightenment: I achieved Daozu by ascending to the lower realm

Chapter 40 Inner Demon
Ning Qi could feel it.

Eighth Senior Brother Qin Yun was extremely curious about his own progress in cultivation. Although other senior brothers and sisters were also curious, they were basically at a normal level. However, Qin Yun was different. Ning Qi could often sense Qin Yun's inquiring gaze.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he felt that Eighth Senior Brother was probably jealous of him, which led to his obsession.

His strange condition might have something to do with this.

Ning Qi knew that Qin Yun had always taken it as his mission to revitalize the Zhenwu Sect. Before Ning Qi went up the mountain, Qin Yun was the most promising person among all the true disciples. His talent even surpassed Jiang Baishan, and he was the focus of everyone.

But since Ning Qi gradually revealed his martial arts.

Things gradually changed.

His performance when he first practiced the standing meditation was enough to shock everyone. Later, Taoist Longshan told his disciples not to ask Ning Qi about his progress, and even let him live alone near the Sutra Library.

All these special treatments let everyone know that Ning Qi is extraordinary.

It's just that the others were all relieved, while Qin Yun, while happy, might also feel a little sour and jealous.

Ning Qi could sense the complexity in Qin Yun's heart, and he was afraid that even Qin Yun himself could not control it.

at this time.

Qin Yun invited him.

If he didn't play, Qin Yun might think too much.

If he were to go on the field, even if he used the Silence Technique to restrain most of his cultivation, he would still have to show a realm that matched his talent, at least the Bone Refining Realm, otherwise he would be treating Qin Yun as a fool.

Either approach doesn't seem to be a good idea.

Ning Qi hesitated slightly.

Fortunately.

Taoist Longshan spoke.

"Okay, let's end the competition today. Xiao Ba, come with me. I have something to tell you."

Qin Yun was stunned, then nodded respectfully.

Two figures left.

Luo Wentian was slightly stunned, and then began to summarize the competition.

Ning Qi's eyes flashed and he sighed slightly in his heart.

Taoist Longshan's actions have basically confirmed his guess that Eighth Senior Brother Qin Yun should have developed an obsession.

"Go to the Sutra Library and see if you can find some records about the inner demon. If you can find out what form the inner demon takes, maybe you can try to create a method to eliminate it."

Before Ning Qi set foot on the martial arts path, Ye Qinghe and Qin Yun were the closest to him. Although the relationship between him and Qin Yun became much colder after practicing martial arts, Ning Qi still hoped that Qin Yun was well.

If he can, he will not hesitate to help.

……

late at night.

Qin Yun's residence.

Qin Yun sat cross-legged on the bed, with his five hearts facing the sky, practicing his skills.

The scene at Mingwu Pavilion during the day came to my mind again.

Taoist Longshan taught him earnestly:

"Yun'er, I know what you are thinking. You have always been gifted and strong-willed. You regard the revitalization of the Zhenwu Sect as your responsibility. But sometimes you must remember not to be too impatient, otherwise one wrong step will lead to eternal damnation."

"It's a good thing that you have reached the peak of inner essence, but you must also lay a solid foundation and not rush into anything."

"I certainly hope that the Zhenwu sect can be revived, but to me, you are equally important. You, the nine Zhenwu disciples, should be like brothers and sisters, and stick together through thick and thin."

"This is the Qingxin Jue. I know that you have been having a lot of thoughts lately. Chanting this mantra often may help you concentrate and calm your mind."

Qin Yun thought of these words, and his eyes were touched.

He recited slowly to himself.

"The highest virtue is like water, a pure mind like nothing, few thoughts and a solemn heart..."

The originally disturbing thoughts gradually faded away.

But for some reason, the scene from the daytime kept reappearing in his mind, and Ning Qi's figure kept magnifying in his mind.

"Junior brother...what is your current level of cultivation?" This thought came to his mind.

He suddenly felt his heart ablaze with anger and his head splitting with pain. The slight comfort and peace that the Qingxin Jue had originally brought him suddenly dissipated.

Qin Yun activated the Heaven-shaking Force, and the internal force in his body continued to flow through his flesh, trying to relieve his discomfort in this way.

But even he didn't notice it.

I don't know when wisps of black air appeared from all over the body, and the way the Heaven-shaking Force operates also changed unconsciously.

This is a fragment of a scroll he obtained when he came down the mountain this time.

Once, after the instinct was running, he found that the speed of cultivation was much faster than the Heaven-shaking Power. However, Qin Yun also found that practicing this fragment seemed to have caused unexpected changes in his mentality. He did not tell Taoist Longshan about the fragment.

Run it over and over again.

Qin Yun's exploding pain finally eased, but he didn't even notice that the black energy on his body became thicker and thicker, and even his eyes were filled with a hint of black energy.

All the chaotic thoughts finally converged into one.

"I'll go and try Junior Brother in secret."

Qin Yun grinned strangely, put on his night clothes, and walked towards the Sutra Library with his face covered.

……

At this time, in the Sutra Repository.

Ning Qi turned out all the records and methods about the inner demon.

"The so-called inner demons are all caused by thoughts. In essence, they are negative emotions that have been amplified and condensed, and have undergone unpredictable changes. If the inner demons are not eliminated, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make any progress in martial arts."

"In serious cases, bleeding may occur from all seven orifices and death?"

Ning Qi's heart trembled.

The inner demon is more serious than he thought, but according to the records, the inner demon is also divided into several stages.

"If you want to get rid of it, you have to start from the root. Only by eliminating the obsession can you get rid of the inner demon. But according to this record, those who get rid of the inner demon are all able to do so by chance, without any trace. In the past, there were even sects that created methods specifically to use the inner demon to speed up cultivation..."

"In the Sutra Library, only a few spells such as the Qingxin Jue have a certain calming effect and can suppress distracting thoughts. No wonder Master took the Qingxin Jue away."

"It's a bit difficult to create a method to completely remove the inner demon. The main reason is that I don't know what form the inner demon appears and exists in. Moreover, my cultivation is not enough..."

All kinds of thoughts came to Ning Qi's mind.

He planned to spend a little time every day to study and try to create a secret technique to remove the inner demons as soon as possible.

While thinking.

Ning Qi raised his eyebrows and looked into the distance.

He could feel a strange aura approaching quietly, moving towards the Sutra Library and the Temple of Seeking the Dao.

"A visitor late at night, I'm afraid he has bad intentions."

The shape-shifting technique was performed silently, and a middle-aged Taoist priest with an ordinary appearance suddenly appeared in the Sutra Library.

Ning Qi moved his body, and when he got used to it, he stopped breathing and disappeared.

……

Qin Yun was wearing a nightgown and a mask, blending in very stealthily in the darkness. He was naturally very familiar with the Zhenwu Sect and easily avoided the patrolling disciples.

His mind was filled with passion, but he still retained some rationality.

"I will pretend to be a thief and attack Junior Brother. He will mistakenly think that he is facing a life-and-death crisis and will naturally stop hiding his weakness. By then, we will know what realm Junior Brother is in. But we cannot hurt him."

Qin Yun's eyes were slightly complicated.

He himself was also very conflicted, but he knew that after his junior fellow apprentice learned the Jiaozi Stake easily from him, he and Ning Qi would no longer be able to be the same as before.

"Perhaps, I am born narrow-minded."

Qin Yun felt bitter.

But suddenly, he stopped abruptly, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

Only the front can be seen.

A figure stood with his hands behind his back, as if he had been waiting for him there.
