Dedicate One’s Mind

Chapter 18 The Three Treasures Enter the Taoist Temple’s Premortal Life

After entering the bead, Wu Yi did not shy away from it, and his eyes went straight to the black beetle surrounded by flames. Similarly, the black beetle did not care whether Wu Yi was watching it or not, and continued to do his own thing.

Perhaps the two of them had already expected this in their hearts. The black beetle wanted the 90% of the Yin Qi collected by Wu Yi. Wu Yi was worried that the black beetle would transcend his control after obtaining these spiritual energies, so he came to check it out, just like Wu Yi also came to check when the black beetle first borrowed the sun to practice. Wu Yi needed to check to confirm that the fragile balance between them could still be maintained.

The black beetle itself knew that Wu Yi would come, so it pretended not to see Wu Yi. This was a kind of unspoken tacit understanding.

After taking a look at what the black beetle was doing, Wu Yi had doubts in his heart, but his expression did not change. He watched quietly for a long time, a long time. This was the longest time Wu Yi's mind had stayed in the bead.

Entering the bead is not completely lossless, and it requires full concentration of mind. Wu Yi in the outside world is like sitting still, wandering in the world, and can't do anything else at all.

If you stay in the bead for too long, you will feel tired. Wu Yi has already felt it vaguely. The body in the bead is shaking constantly, which is a sign that the mind is difficult to concentrate.

But even so, Wu Yi still watched quietly without saying a word. He realized that all the steps of the black beetle might be preparations for the next step, so he couldn't speak first and had to wait for the black beetle to speak first.

"Hmm--" The last ray of Yin Qi entered the black beetle's body. The black beetle raised its antennae high, stood upright on both feet, and made a comfortable sound, as if stretching.

As the black beetle gradually stretched its body, dark red dots gradually appeared on his back. They seemed chaotic, but they were actually arranged into groups of flames. Finally, these flames formed a larger flame. Just looking at these flames, Wu Yi felt the mystery of countless flames, but the strongest was a violent implication of burning everything.

Seeing these flames, Wu Yi felt a sense of familiarity. Thinking back carefully, he found that the red fire pattern on the body of the powerful man wearing a black robe with red fire pattern in the picture shown by the beads before seemed to be the same as the red dots on the back of the black beetle.

It seems that the black beetle and the powerful man are indeed related, but is it as the black beetle said? Wu Yi pondered silently.

After a while, the transformation of the black beetle was over. Now looking at it again, you can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary creature. It is much more majestic than when we first met.

The shiny back shell, the eight legs ready to go, and the strange red dots all indicate that its owner is no longer an ordinary insect, but has advanced to a spiritual insect.

The black beetle turned around, stood upright on its front two legs, and raised its head. Although its body did not grow much, it exuded a momentum that suppressed the heavens.

This momentum was blocked by the flame encirclement for a while. Wu Yi smiled lightly, unaffected by this momentum, and greeted: "It seems that you have been promoted to a spirit insect, congratulations." The black beetle looked straight at Wu Yi, without blinking or speaking, just looking into Wu Yi's eyes, trying to know his true thoughts. But the black beetle was destined to be disappointed. How could the lonely Wu Yi let people see his thoughts so easily? His background and experience made him not look like a teenager of this age. He looked at the black beetle without showing any fear. Seeing that Wu Yi's transformed body was shaky and could not stay in the bead for much longer, the black beetle retreated a step and said: "Do you want to learn?" "I don't know." The question was incoherent and the answer was inexplicable, but both of them knew what was said. As soon as Wu Yi entered the bead, he discovered the mutation of the black beetle. This mutation came from Yin Qi. Unlike the black beetle's previous absorption of Yang Qi, it now absorbs Yin Qi not through its mouth and nose, but through the pores all over its body. It is breathing with its body, or using Yin Qi to temper its body and remove the dirt in its body bit by bit.

For the first time, Wu Yi discovered how the spiritual energy of heaven and earth could be used. Yin Qi is also a kind of spiritual energy, but it is not suitable for ordinary people to practice.

This is a different method of practicing Qi from the usual practice, which attracted Wu Yi for a long time. However, it is an exaggeration to say that Wu Yi was attracted to the collapse of his body and exhaustion of his energy.

After watching the black beetle practice for a while and roughly understanding the characteristics of this practice method, Wu Yi was thinking about why the black beetle let him see these?

Why did the black beetle show this practice method in front of him? Why didn't it do this when absorbing the initial Yang Qi before? Was it chosen at this time just because it was going to advance?

But these questions are destined to be questions without answers. Wu Yi is waiting for the black beetle to give him answers.

The black beetle was very curious about why Wu Yi didn't ask him for this technique, so he took the initiative to ask.

Wu Yi's "I don't know" contained many meanings, such as he didn't know whether he wanted to practice, he didn't know whether the black beetle would give it to him, he didn't know whether it was suitable for him to practice, etc.

The black beetle sighed sadly: "People have three treasures: essence, energy and spirit. The three treasures send out three paths. Those who cultivate essence are called force, those who cultivate energy are called energy, and those who cultivate spirit are called law. The flowers bloom three flowers, each showing one branch, but the energy is the only one, so people don't know the other two paths, thinking that they are false, which is sad and lamentable."

"So, you practiced the power method before." Wu Yi asked.

The black beetle nodded.

"The nine movements you gave me before can be considered a kind of strength method."

Black Beetle nodded again.

"So I can practice the power method."

Black Beetle still nodded without saying a word.

Wu Yi closed his eyes and thought deeply, understanding that he and Black Beetle needed to establish a more solid connection to maintain the balance between the two. Black Beetle had already given this new connection, and now it was up to him to choose.

After a while, Wu Yi opened his eyes and asked, "What do I need to do?"

The bright black face of the black beetle showed an expression that said, "I knew you would make such a choice." The tentacles on the top of its head emitted a bright light, and a strange image was transmitted to Wu Yi.

I don't know what is contained in this image. The black beetle looked much weaker after showing this image, and its originally upright body fell to the ground again.

After Wu Yi received the image, his shaky figure immediately dispersed. Wu Yi's mind suddenly withdrew from the bead and returned to the living world. At this time, Wu Yi was extremely exhausted, but he was still suspicious by nature. Lay a series of hidden air blades around the body, and even take out five soul-suppressing incense sticks and arrange them in a column shape. After lighting them, they can burn for a long time without worrying about being invaded by ghosts.

Finally, he condensed his energy and sent a message to inform the strongman standing outside the door that he had gained something from his cultivation and would be in seclusion for a period of time. Everything in Dahuai Town was temporarily suspended and he was not allowed to travel at will.

The reason for condensing energy and sound transmission is because if you speak, your weakness will be exposed, which will inevitably make some strong men have evil intentions.

Wu Yi can't even trust the strong men who live together day and night and share the same hardships, which is inevitably chilling. However, this is the reality of the immortal world, which is similar to the world of ghosts, and must be guarded against.

After handling everything, Wu Yi could no longer hold on, his eyes darkened, and he fell straight on the bed.

After Wu Yi fell on the bed, his body twisted unconsciously and gradually turned into the most common sleeping posture. If Wu Yi fell in the same posture, the soreness in his back and back pain might be trivial under Wu Yi's extreme exhaustion. Physical injuries may occur.

In addition, the turtle and snake breathing technique that Wu Yi had practiced earlier also started to work spontaneously. He breathed in the breath like a mysterious turtle, long and continuous, and breathed out like a celestial snake breathing out a message, like silk threads.

Wu Yi's body was not being manipulated by anyone at this moment. He was just letting nature take its course. The body was repairing itself and its functions were working. The mystery of the human body was really mysterious.

At this time, Wu Yi was completely attracted by the image and became a complete bystander.

His eyes darkened, and then Wu Yi's mind seemed to fall into a deep whirlpool. When he felt his mind again, he had come to an extremely real world.

His body can pass through objects at will, and he can hear sounds coming from far away, but he cannot hear sounds close to him at all. What he sees in his eyes is hazy, but one direction is gradually becoming clearer.

Wu Yi knew in his heart that what he could see and hear should be based on the perspective of another creature, which is why such strange things happened. In other words, this image was based on the perspective of this creature.

Following the direction that gradually became clear, Wu Yi walked quickly. Originally, Wu Yi would avoid obstacles when he saw them, but after finding that there was no need, Wu Yi walked straight through.

Wu Yi soon found the basis for the existence of this image. The first thing he saw was a huge insect nest, with countless beetles coming in and out, carrying food, picking up garbage, and going out to fight. It was like a small country.

At this time, a loud cry sounded, and the world around him did not change at all, but it set off huge waves in Wu Yi's heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

A new black beetle was born. As soon as Wu Yi saw this black beetle, he felt a familiar feeling in his heart. He wanted to touch it, but his palm went directly through it. Wu Yi laughed at himself and stopped doing it. Useless effort.

The newborn black beetles were placed and raised together like countless other black beetles born from the mother beetle, and there was no difference at all.

Five or six days have passed in this world. The black beetles have gradually grown up and started to do some small things for the insect nest. The black beetles that gave Wu Yi a sense of familiarity still showed no abnormalities.

But at this moment, a disaster occurred. Raging and fiery magma spewed out from the crater, turning everything in its path into ashes. Continuous forest fires burned everything within a ten-mile radius, dyeing the sky red.

Countless creatures died tragically in this disaster. They wailed, screamed, and ran around helplessly. In the end, they could not escape the fate of being burned to death.

The black beetles are no exception, but the black beetles spontaneously formed a group, and the mother and larvae were protected in the innermost layer. However, their group was too small, and the blazing flames burned the outermost layers before they even got close. The insects were all burned to charcoal when the fire came.

Destiny always favors lucky creatures. When the raging fire passed, the ordinary yet extraordinary black beetle climbed out of the charred insect nest. Looking at the home behind him, countless emotions, sadness, grief and anger arose in his heart. , pain, resentment, hatred...

In the end, countless emotions turned into one, which was anger. It moved forward in an indomitable way towards the place where the magma came, trying to find the source of the magma, block it, and avenge the clan.

But it was too weak, and even after it had finally advanced a few miles, a strong wind would bring it back to where it was, but it didn't give up, and just kept walking.

Wu Yi, who had been watching Black Beetle from behind, suddenly realized: "Those who want to achieve great things must have ambitions that ordinary people cannot bear."

When lions and tigers, the so-called kings of beasts, are fleeing this place, how can one not be amazed that a tiny insect has such an ambition.

I don't know how much time passed, but the black beetle finally climbed to the crater and faced the scorching magma. Before the black beetle had time to drop the pebbles in its hands, the volcano began to boil again.

The magma is about to erupt again.

The earth shook and the mountains shook. The black beetle could not stand for a moment and fell into the volcano.

But this troubled black beetle finally started on the road to luck and landed on a blooming fire lotus, and luckily survived.
