Exorcism

Some people are selfless enough to give everything for others, while some people are selfish enough to think that others should give everything for themselves. Their common feature is that they are calm about "giving" and take it for granted.

These two types of people are extremely rare. Most people are in between, wavering between selflessness and selfishness. Even Taoist priests cannot escape the rut. No matter how righteous they are when committing crimes, they still have a little fear and a little self-awareness of their mistakes in their hearts. It is this conscience that makes them suffer in the Demon Cave and never calm down.

Shen Geng is one of the very few most purely selfish people. He has no conscience in his heart, let alone any regrets. He only feels resentful for not getting what he wanted. If it weren't for the Taoist priest's good memory, he wouldn't even remember Er Liang, who was an insignificant mortal he killed in his youth and was not worth recording.

"All Taoists are pursuing self-perfection, but I have it without pursuing it. So I can meditate in the unobstructed land, but unfortunately there is no spiritual energy here. Meditation can only make me quiet, but it can't improve my inner elixir." Shen Geng was a little proud. He hadn't meditated for too long, and he was beaten so many times, so his mood was a little fluctuating.

"Don't lie." Mu Xingqiu's fists itched. After understanding the reason why Shen Geng remained calm, he wanted to beat him up even more.

"I never lie. This is also one of the reasons why I was sent to the Demon Cave by the Taoist sect." Shen Geng said proudly.

"Humph, what did Kun Dun say? Your self-perfection is only an approximation, which runs counter to the real self-perfection." Mu Xingqiu tried his best to control the impulse in his heart and find a way to calm down. He had to do this. Only by staying calm could he think about the way to save himself, otherwise he would gradually become a pure lunatic like other prisoners.

"You stole my memory!" Shen Geng's eyes became gloomy, just like the expression when he invited Mu Xingqiu to join his gang when he was a child but was rejected.

"You know better than me that the weak have nothing. Your memories are there for me to use. Do I need to 'steal' them?" Mu Xingqiu bullied the weak with his strength, and felt a sense of relief in his heart. He knew that he couldn't let this feeling develop, as it would soon become another emotion that controlled him.

Shen Geng's face was ashen, but Mu Xingqiu had already sat cross-legged in the air several feet high, and after a long time he entered a state of meditation.

"Do you also think you are innocent?" Shen Geng whispered. Seeing that Mu Xingqiu was really unaware, he became bolder. "You must be truly innocent like me to have a clear conscience. Mu Xingqiu, you can't do it."

Shen Geng slowly circled around Mu Xingqiu. He wanted to attack several times, but he forced himself to hold back. "Why are you so much stronger than me? How long have I been in the Demon Cave? Has it been hundreds of years?"

Time could not be felt in the Demon Cave. Shen Geng didn't understand why Mu Xingqiu was so much stronger than himself. He thought he had been practicing outside for hundreds of years.

"This is unfair. I can't practice in the Demon Cave, so I'm behind him." Shen Geng said angrily, his mind became more confused, but he was very alert. When he found that he was about to lose control, he immediately left Mu Xingqiu and flew several miles away to stop. Anyway, there was nowhere to escape, so he sat here and entered the state of meditation.

Mu Xingqiu woke up soon. His state of meditation was very shallow, and he could only suppress the surging seven emotions and six desires a little. He still felt anxious and eager to see the splattered blood and broken bones. He silently fought with this impulse, forcibly suppressed it, and began to seriously think about the current situation.

To put it simply, he was really defeated. He couldn't see the successor of the Mind Science in the Unobstructed Land, and even if he saw it, it might not be useful. There was no spiritual energy in the Demon Cave, and there was no way to practice. These were all unexpected accidents.

Mu Xingqiu, who had calmed down, would not give up. He flew in front of Shen Geng, endured and endured, and did not make another move. The state of contemplation can better protect the Niwan Palace, but it is still powerless against the ninth level of mind illusion. Mu Xingqiu can enter Shen Geng's mind and check any memory in it at will.

Mu Xingqiu didn't look carefully enough just now. He wanted to understand why Kun Dun spoke to Shen Geng.

When Shen Geng just entered the Uncovered Land from the Silent Land, he was more violent than Mu Xingqiu. He felt that the Taoist tradition and the whole world had let him down. He angrily made accusations and kept talking, angering other prisoners and getting beaten a lot. He finally became timid and fled everywhere until he met another prisoner. It was this person who told Shen Geng that contemplation could temporarily bring peace in the Uncovered Land.

Shen Geng reached the state of contemplation little by little with a firm belief in "innocence".

Kun Dun appeared at this time. He was isolated from the news in the Demon Cave. The memories of these prisoners were the most important source of information. He had already quietly taken away Shen Geng's memories, and now he was curious about his contemplation.

The two talked for a long time, and self-perfection was only a small part of the content.

After reading these memories, Mu Xingqiu could no longer bear it and knocked Shen Geng, who was meditating, to the ground with a punch. Half of Shen Geng's body was broken into pieces and fell to the ground, and was soon absorbed by the gray-white stone. Shen Geng stood up shakily, gritting his teeth and waiting for his body to recover.

"Why are you hitting me again? Didn't your meditating succeed?"

"It was you who turned Kun Dun into what it is now." Mu Xingqiu wanted to eat Shen Geng alive.

Until he met Shen Geng, Kun Chao was strictly implementing the plan made by the Third Ancestor, concentrating on refining his body in the Demon-Batting Cave, and waiting for the news from the Demon-Suppressing Bell that the demon species was born. With the help of everyone, he will leave this place, and then he will completely defeat the reintegrated demons as a surprise soldier. When the world is at peace, he will gradually return the accumulated practice of Taoist priests of past generations to the living Taoist priests, and create a large number of strong men for the Taoist order. It's not about him being the only one.

Shen Geng's extreme selfishness pointed out another path to Kun Chao.

Time could not be felt in the Devil's Cave. Kun Chao calculated the length of time through one prisoner after another, and knew that he had spent hundreds of thousands of years. For some reason, the devil soul did not take any action, and the stupid devil species soon It is difficult to escape the suppression of orthodoxy.

Shen Geng just thought that the Taoist tradition was indebted to him, and Kun Chao had more solid reasons for thinking this way. In the long period of loneliness and torture, Kun Chao was probably ready for "self-consummation", and all he needed was a little help. Ignite sparks.

Shen Geng is Mars.

This is just Shen Geng's memory. Mu Xingqiu still has some doubts. For example, how does Kun Chaos control the external Taoism's Mie Nian Xin Ke? How were the remains of the third ancestor refined into magical weapons?

Even without Shen Geng, Kun Chao would have become isolated and selfish sooner or later. The power he gained was so powerful that he no longer needed the cooperation of others. But Shen Geng accelerated this process, making the whole world unprepared, and Mu Mu Xingqiu had to voluntarily enter the Demon Drawing Cave in a desperate situation.

According to the plan of the Third Patriarch, there should not be anyone else in the Bamo Cave except Kun Chaos, and there should not be any time. I don’t know which Patriarch transformed the Ba Mo Cave into a prison, giving Kun Chaos an intermittent path. He has information channels and can calculate the years. This is probably the most important reason for his hatred and ambition.

Kun Chaos body refining was supposed to last ten thousand years. When he left the Demonic Cave, he would only feel that things had changed and he would not have a strong sense of abandonment. But once he could calculate time, the cultivation in the Demonic Cave would last only a moment. Ten thousand years of torture.

The little peace that Mu Xingqiu finally gained was about to disappear again. While there was still some sense in his heart, he sat down to think again. His heart was ups and downs, and it took him a long time to get rid of his thoughts.

After opening his eyes again, Mu Xingqiu saw Shen Geng thinking about himself not far from him. He was self-aware, so he simply didn't escape if he couldn't escape.

The thought made time turn into chaos. Mu Xingqiu didn't know how much time had passed. A quarter of an hour, a day, a year... it all meant nothing to him. He only knew one thing: his body and soul were not separated yet, that is, he had not arrived yet. Twelve years.

Mu Xingqiu gained a stronger calm this time and did not beat up Shen Geng again, not because he didn't want to, but because he controlled his impulse. He flew into the sky, using mental illusions as he flew, to find a specific prisoner.

There were more than thirty prisoners in the Uncovered Land, but Mu Xingqiu only recognized two. One was Shen Geng, and the other was Luanjing Mountain Taoist Feng Ruhui. It was the latter he was looking for.

Feng Ruhui was imprisoned in the Demon Cave a few years earlier than Shen Geng. She was not that selfish and could not approach the state of perfection. She could only accept the endless torture of seven emotions and six desires. But the strange thing is that she was the one who told Shen Geng that she could temporarily think about it. Get peace.

The Uncovered Land has no boundaries. If you want, you can keep flying forever, and if you turn around again, you may find that you are still where you are. It is such a strange place.

It's easy to use mental illusions to find high emotions. Mu Xingqiu immediately recognized Feng Ruhui among the more than thirty prisoners. No one was as trapped in love as she was.

Feng Ruhui sat on his knees on the ground, changing back and forth between young and old, like a chameleon who couldn't distinguish the surrounding environment. She was putting on makeup, pretending there was rouge in her hands, pretending there was a mirror opposite her.

Mu Xingqiu stood in front of her for a long time, and then Feng Ruhui raised his head. What was revealed was an old face. There was no smile on his face, which was full of despair and sadness. "Why do I want to be a Taoist priest? Why can't I be like a mortal?" To have the most ordinary love? My requirements are not high, right?”

Feng Ruhui had not been in the Demon-Batting Cave for too long, but she had already entered the late stage of separation of body and soul faster than other prisoners.

In a place where there is no cover, it is easy to hate someone, and sympathy is also readily available. Mu Xingqiu had to step aside and enter his thoughts again.

Feng Ruhui didn't leave. She didn't want to move at all. She was immersed in a sea of ​​self-pity. One moment, she was in love with Ning Qiwei, the former master of Pangshan Mountain. The next moment, her illusion was shattered. She was with her former lover on the mountain top. attacking each other.

After Mu Xingqiu woke up, he took away Feng Ruhui's memory and flew far away. Feng Ruhui's memory was very scattered. Mu Xingqiu would rather sort it out slowly than see her again.

Finally, he found the relevant memory, and Feng Ruhui's flash of inspiration actually came from Fangfang.
