Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 147 Farewell
This secret technique involves the vibration of all five internal organs and some extraordinary meridians nearby, and it requires a lot of effort to master.

Zhou Qing was so engrossed in studying the essence of the secret technique that he didn't realize it was already evening.

The craftsmen who had built the house for Qingyuan were preparing to finish their work and go home. Qingyuan happily said goodbye to her new friends and made an appointment to work together again the next day.

The craftsmen also happily bid farewell to this unpretentious immortal.

As the craftsmen disappeared into the deep twilight of the dense forest, Zhou Qing was about to call Qingyuan home when he suddenly saw Wei Kuang walking toward them, looking lost and disoriented.

Zhou Qing stopped and asked, "Wei Kuang, what's wrong?"

Wei Kuang smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, there are just some things I can't figure out."

Zhou Qing said, "Would it be convenient for you to tell me?"

Wei Kuang hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Senior Brother, what would you do if two people you care about very much had a serious conflict?"

Zhou Qing said, "This question is too abstract. We need to explain the details of the conflict in order to analyze how to take measures."

Wei Kuang thought for a moment and said, "What if it's a conflict of interest where the two sides can hardly coexist?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "The conflict of interest is best resolved. I can offer them even greater benefits, enough to make them abandon their respective disputes."

Wei Kuang was taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "Senior Brother has a magnanimous heart; how can others compare?"

Zhou Qing said, "A person should take on as much responsibility as they are capable of. Never take on things that are not your responsibility."

"If two people you think you care about have a conflict and you feel helpless, it means you are not the right person to resolve the dispute. You should just stay silent and let them fight it out."

Wei Kuang nodded and said, "I understand."

Wei Kuang came and went in a hurry, saying only a few words before taking his leave.

Zhou Qing could tell that he had something heavy on his mind, and tried several times to get him to talk about it, but failed, and finally had to give up.

It got dark quickly.

Zhou Qing continued pacing in the courtyard, pondering the secret method, while trying to vibrate a portion of his internal organs and extraordinary meridians as instructed in the method.

Not far from him, Qingyuan lay on a bamboo recliner, gazing at the stars.

She had a sudden inspiration to make this recliner while she was working during the day, and asked one of the craftsmen to teach her how. She didn't seem to have much experience in handicrafts, so after she finished making the piece, she cherished it very much and almost didn't want to get off it.

It was almost midnight when Qingyuan suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Someone has lost their power!"

"what?"

Zhou Qing asked in surprise.

Qingyuan pointed down the mountain and said, "Isn't that it?"

Zhou Qing looked in the direction she indicated and indeed saw a black light shooting into the sky.

His heart sank.

That was the location of Wei Kuang's residence.

The entire Ziyun Mountain is dotted with hundreds of courtyards, and there may be many people in the same direction, but Zhou Qing immediately thought of Wei Kuang.

He thought to himself that Wei Kuang might have come to see him during the day, and Wei Kuang's melancholy expression made him make unfounded associations, but it might not actually be Wei Kuang.

Despite thinking this way, he didn't feel any more at ease.

He didn't have time to call out to Qingyuan before rushing out of the courtyard and heading towards the direction of the black light.

He had only run a dozen steps when he suddenly felt his body lighten and he was lifted into the air.

He turned around in surprise, only to see Qingyuan hugging him from behind and carrying him through the air. "Are you stupid? Have you forgotten that I'm a Foundation Establishment cultivator? Although the breakthrough was dangerous, I'm still a Foundation Establishment cultivator. You can't underestimate me."

Qingyuan smiled and winked at him.

Zhou Qing felt his heart skip a beat, as if something unfamiliar had entered his heart.

He didn't have the mind to analyze what it was right away, so he turned his attention back to the black light.

With Qingyuan's help, they arrived in front of the black light in just a dozen breaths.

Zhou Qing's hopes were completely dashed; that place was indeed Wei Kuang's residence.

Seeing his solemn expression, Qingyuan knew that the people inside the house were very important to him, so she immediately tried to break the barrier surrounding the courtyard.

Unfortunately, wood-elemental spiritual energy is not inherently destructive, and Qingyuan's realm was unstable. Despite using all her strength, she failed to break the restriction.

Qingyuan was somewhat at a loss when she saw Zhou Qing suddenly leap high into the air, as if a god had descended to earth, and land in the sky above the courtyard. Then, a dazzling five-colored ray of light shot out from his hand.

The solid barrier was instantly shattered by the multicolored light, and Zhou Qing descended through the hole created by the divine light.

Before the hole had healed, Qingyuan hurriedly followed and entered the courtyard.

She looked up at the gradually closing barrier, feeling shocked by the attack Zhou Qing had just delivered.

Qingyuan had never been particularly enthusiastic about cultivation, but she understood what a shocking thing Zhou Qing had just done.

With less than two years of cultivation and only at the first level of Qi Refining, he unleashed an attack worthy of someone at the Foundation Establishment level.

This completely overturns all common sense in the cultivation world.

Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, then was startled by Zhou Qing's shouts from inside the house.

She hurriedly followed him inside and found the boy she had just seen that evening lying on the floor.

The boy's eyes were tightly closed, his body was covered in solid ice, and he was no longer breathing.

Zhou Qing called out with all his might, but he couldn't get the other person to open their eyes.

After shouting for a while, Zhou Qing fell silent.

He scanned Wei Kuang's body with his magnetic field sensor and found that the brilliant starry sky that represented his life characteristics had dimmed, and the thousands of stars within it were going out one by one.

This is a life passing away.

Zhou Qing felt somewhat bewildered; Wei Kuang's passing was completely unexpected.

He knew that he would face many separations and deaths after cultivating immortality, and he prepared himself to endure the suffering that inevitably comes with longevity.

He had thought that these partings would happen more often in the future of cultivation, when the difference in everyone's realm was too great, when someone's lifespan was exhausted, or when they were traveling the world and died in the dangerous environment of the cultivation world.

He never imagined that at the very beginning of this path of cultivation, he would face separation and death.

No, he should have expected it long ago.

Lin Hongyu had already shown him how dangerous this road was, hadn't she?
But Wei Kuang is not Lin Hongyu. His talent is far superior to Lin Hongyu's, and this is only the second level of Qi Refining. How could he possibly fall in such a place?

Zhou Qing had a thousand questions that he couldn't understand, but in the end, he could only let out a sigh.

A loud whooshing sound came from afar, followed by what sounded like a hurricane descending on the courtyard.

Jin Mang rushed into the room in a panic and saw Wei Kuang lying on the floor, lifeless. He stood there frozen in place.

The black light that shot into the sky gradually weakened and finally dissipated completely.
