take care of yourself

This is a question that Ying Yao cannot answer at this time.

His thoughts paused for a while after asking this question, and then slowly continued to think downwards.

Heaven and earth treat everyone equally, it has no joy or sorrow for whoever lives or dies, and I'm afraid it doesn't care whether a Huashen Sword Cultivator obeys it, treats people and spirits or monsters or beasts according to its laws, and it doesn't necessarily care if someone disobeys him, Make the creatures of the world do things against their nature.Ying Yao didn't know what his Dao heart would look like if he practiced according to the principles of heaven and earth, but he knew that following the principles of heaven and earth would solve his current knots.

But compared with conforming to heaven and earth, conforming to one's heart sounds natural.

Thinking about it now, Ying Yao can barely deduce from Ke Li's scornful attitude towards monks practicing according to the skills handed down by the predecessors that he deliberately hinted at his purpose:

Although there are not many monks who have become famous today, there are even fewer monks who have ascended to the sky, and the cumulative number is far more than a handful of people, but I don’t know where to cultivate. He is just a monk who has just entered the late stage of transformation. He couldn't figure out how to fulfill his entrustment, so Ke Li thought of a way to give him advice.

At this level of sentient beings, Dao sword practice is more important than cultivating sword moves or tempering the body, and there is no one in a million that can directly break the boundary. Even in the hands of an immortal, there may not be one suitable for him, so try to guide him. Taking his mood to a higher level is already the easiest way to obtain it.

In addition, Ying Yao recalled what Ke Li had said now, and could vaguely feel that he was implying that he should practice according to his original heart.

Ke Li used Zhuo Yuanshan as an example, repeatedly telling him that the ancient monks did not practice according to the inherent skills, and the way of heaven and earth can barely be regarded as an inherent skill, so this is the only answer left.

According to common sense, the immortal who is more than ten times stronger than him has already hinted that he can go that way, so Ying Yao should not hesitate at this time, but he couldn't help but think of what Zhuo Yuanshan did when he practiced according to his heart. Because, I can't help but hesitate.

Zhuo Yuanshan cultivated alone in the Western Snow Mountain. When confronting the demon that tempted him, he was still a monk who would be moved by the intimacy of the snow bear. He was still thinking about how to reunite with his sister Zhuo Yuanlan when he defeated the demon one day. Returning to good, I probably never imagined that under the temptation of the demons, I would not care about mortal lives, put in all my effort to improve my cultivation, and finally become a ruthless and loveless monk who can blend into everything in the world.

Thinking about it like this, Ying Yao felt that even if he followed his own heart from beginning to end, he might not be able to answer his initial doubts and get what he asked for at the beginning, not to mention that he would not be able to know what he had done. Whether what he did really conformed to his original heart, or was it a misdemeanor deluded by the name of conforming to his original heart.

Perhaps Zheng Chuan can guide him on this road, but Ying Yao is not sure whether he can still listen to Zheng Chuan's words at that time. After all, his master is just a Yuanying monk--the one who has mastered the realm of cultivation is the first. Ying Yao can now guarantee that she respects and loves him, but she can't guarantee that after conforming to her heart, she will not ignore him because of the conflict between her Taoism and Zheng Chuan.

However, what he chooses does not suit him, so what should he practice according to?In other words, he didn't have the courage to bear the consequences for his choice, so what is the purpose of continuing to practice?

It would be better for him to seal this memory now, forget the purpose of the magical medicine that Ke Li gave him, which is full of mustard seed rings, and practice step by step according to the way of "entering the world". Anyway, he does not intend to ascend.

But how can you be willing to shrink back in front of the Dao?

Ying Yao couldn't think of an answer, and couldn't make a choice. He sat silently and quietly on the top of the snow-capped mountain, confronting himself with difficulty.

The protective circle he had set up earlier did not block the wind and snow from the sky, the snow blowing along with the wind melted on Ying Yao's shoulders, slowly turning him into the same temperature as himself, and then attached to his body layer by layer The clothes and eyebrows finally completely submerged him, like a small spike growing on the top of the mountain.

The spiritual power flowing in Jianxiu's meridians didn't have any intention of paying attention to the wind and snow outside. He let himself be covered by snow, trying to use it to blend in with the avenue of heaven and earth, but he found nothing, and neither did the sword intent that disappeared in the sea of ​​consciousness. A re-emerging trend.

This is no longer something that Jiusujian can help. It has stayed in Yingyao's sea of ​​consciousness for more than a month, and it really can't bear the quiet atmosphere inside that seems to have died, and returned to its own body as if fleeing. , suddenly shivered from the cold that Xue bought him.

Jiusujian got used to the new temperature for a while, the sword shook slightly to remove the snowflakes on its body, turned over on Ying Yao's knee, and looked forward.

Not far away is the road leading to the snow bear breeding ground. The breeding season of snow bears is about three months. Most of the snow bears have already arrived at their destination. No snow bears have passed by. The road has disappeared in the wind and snow, and its original location can only be distinguished from the fluffiness of the snow.

And the monks who were attracted to hunt by the migrating snow bears also disappeared near this road with the departure of the snow bears. There was only a piece of snow in the world, the sun was blocked by thick clouds, and only a faint light was cast on the snow. It doesn't make the sword feel dazzling.

But this scene was more deadly than Ying Yao's sea of ​​consciousness. Jiusujian looked at it for a while, and finally returned to the sea of ​​consciousness resignedly, holding his own sword tassel in front of Ying Yao's eyes, staring at him in a daze.

After a while, Jiusujian remembered the exercises for cultivating adults that he hadn't finished studying, so he dug it out from Ying Yao's sea of ​​consciousness, hung it in front of him, and started to read it word by word.

After the wind and snow stopped, Ying Yao still couldn't find her direction. After reading the exercises for the first time, Jiusujian sneaked out to check the situation outside.

Three months have passed, and the male bear who failed to get the right to mate and the female bear who failed to give birth to cubs went home together. The temperature rose a little, the snow on the mountain melted slightly, and the low-lying area turned into a pool of clear water. The lake attracts passers-by to drink water, the sunlight pours out from the clouds that have become much thinner, and the surface of the irradiated old snow is covered with a layer of crystal-looking ice beads, shaking the sword spirit again. Drilled back into the sea of ​​consciousness.

Jisujian has changed from reading books vertically to reading books while floating. Occasionally, some waves will appear in the sea of ​​consciousness as Ying Yao's mood changes, and Jisujian will fly to the waves and lie down, pretending that he is taking a bath, and making slight noises. Jian Ming.

"The spiritual stones in the formation outside are almost exhausted," Jian Ling murmured, "In three days at most, I must wake him up."

However, three days later, it returned to its main body, took a look at the spirit stone on the formation eye, thought carefully about the method in the exercise just seen, and silently snatched a little spiritual power from Ying Yao's body to open his mustard seed. Ring, holding two new spirit stones to replace the old ones.

Jiusujian babbled to Yingyao's primordial spirit, "I won't change the spirit stone for you again in at most three months."

Ying Yao's mind was completely absorbed in deliberating on the Dao heart, and she didn't notice the coming and going of the Salvation Sword, nor did she hear what it said to herself, but her body found that it had intercepted a little spiritual power from the meridians , but the sword cultivator has always indulged his sword, so he didn't care about this detail.

So is it wrong to "join the WTO" now?he asked himself.

The way of "joining the world" is about entering the world from the beginning to the end. No one taught him to treat monsters with the requirements of "joining the world". measures.

Yingyao's primordial spirit opened his eyes, recalled the sword spirit of saving the world floating in the sea of ​​consciousness, stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword, and made a very slow opening gesture, then leaned forward slightly, and stepped forward to stab sword.

The same sword intent as in the past emerged from the tip of the sword, and the Jiusu Sword smacked furtively when it passed by itself, recognizing it as a "compassion" sword intent.

Compassion is the end of benevolence, and it is also the first sword intent to be practiced by all sword cultivators who practice "entering the world". Blunted: "What?"

"I was almost distracted by Zhuo Yuanshan," Ying Yao replied briskly to his own sword, "I am a person first, and then I am a sword cultivator of 'entering the world'. I practice compassion, shame, resignation, right and wrong It is human benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, prohibition of doing unrighteousness, prohibition of standing on the sidelines, prohibition of self-discipline against others, and prohibition of being unkind to others, if I tell this set of words to snow bears, what will they say?"

Jiusujian thought for a while, but before reaching a conclusion, a rough voice helped it and said: "You seem to make sense, but what shall we have for dinner tonight?"

This voice was the Nascent Soul Snow Bear that Ying Yao met when he came. After saving the common sword, he realized that the sword cultivator had finished the long test, and it was overjoyed: "My Yao, you are finally willing to come out. I'm going to be bored."

Ying Yao only left two sympathetic sword intents in the sea of ​​consciousness, and turned his mind back to his body. He stood up against the thick snow, bent down to put away the formation on the ground, and patted off the snow from his body. Jumping down from the top of the mountain, it lightly stopped beside the snow bear who was drinking water by the lake, and greeted it, "Do you want to drink?"

The snow bear looked critically at the wine jar that Ying Yao took out from the mustard ring, which was just big enough to fit between its teeth, and rejected him with disgust, but a small ball of white hair rolled down from its neck , opened his limbs and slapped himself on the lid of the wine jar in Ying Yao's hand, making a thin cry.

Jiusujian involuntarily stared at the furry snow bear cub for a while, then turned his gaze back to Ying Yao with great willpower, and asked him, "So have you figured out the answer?"

"Spirits should not be governed by human nature," Ying Yao replied, "At least the two I met never came to ask the spirits what they think in person, but people should be governed by humanity. I think the way of 'entering the world' His practice is pretty good, and he doesn’t want to change course.”

Jianxiu watched Snow Bear take the cub from the wine jar and threw it on his back, and smiled: "When manpower is exhausted..." He asked Snow Bear, "Have you ever eaten a monk? How does it taste? Sample?"
