Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World - Chapter 130: Possessed

This state of getting along could be completely broken by just a little accident, but neither of them realized this.

They restored their respective cultivation.

More than half a month passed quickly.

That night Qin Yi was meditating.

Ming He’s elixir worked very well. The bottleneck of true qi condensing into essence was supposed to take a longer time, but he broke through successfully. Qin Yi had entered the second stage of martial arts, the Muscle Alteration Stage, which corresponded to the Piano Heart Stage. His qi essence was completely stable now.

This kind of cultivating progress was unprecedented.

At the same level of cultivating, martial arts cultivators had better actual combat abilities than immortal cultivators, but not much better. The life-increasing effect was much worse, and the bizarre uses were even worse. This was the way of heaven. Moreover, martial arts cultivation was more strenuous, and some stages might even be very painful, which was not suitable for unambitious cultivators. Therefore, the overall number of martial arts cultivation was less than that of immortal cultivation.

Qin Yi could make up for these problems by cultivating the way of immortal and use tao spells to support in actual combat. His actual combat ability was much stronger than that of pure martial arts cultivator. It was a good direction, but it just required twice the effort.

His immortal way had also reached the Phoenix Initiation Stage Level 6. He majored in the way of transformation and minored in fire spells. His life profession was alchemy – the meaning of fire spells was also to assist with alchemy.

He could just dabble in array, and the talisman crafting was abandoned.

This was the cultivation direction that he set after repeated discussions with Liu Su. It was definitely not possible to learn everything. He must give up something, otherwise everything would only be half proficient.

The essence of talisman crafting was just to trick the enemy. In fact, the effect of the talisman was the spell that was stored in the talisman. When facing an enemy, one could use minimum spiritual force to cast a complete spell, and it could also be used by others.

Of course, the practical significance was quite great, but for those who were ready to refine an enchanted weapon, the talisman could be replaced.

In a sense, the enchanted weapon was a permanent talisman, and it was much stronger.

The requirements for creating one’s own enchanted weapon were very high. Even Ming He didn’t have it yet – of course, she could do it now. When she returned to the sect, she could choose a direction that suited her best to create and refine an enchanted weapon.

However, if it was just binding an existing unowned enchanted weapon, the requirements were very low. As cultivation increased, the more effects it could exert. A large number of disciples from sects relied on having more good things than others…

So now Qin Yi was working hard to level up his immortal cultivation so that he could bind the demon slayer and launch a big move.

Once this goal was achieved, he could leave the cave house.

It was not advisable to cultivate in one place for too long. When one was very static, he would think about movement. This was the alternation of yin and yang, which was human nature. No matter how good this place was, he had to go out when reaching a certain level, otherwise there would be “obstacles”. Therefore, it was rare for someone to cultivate all the way from the lowest realm to the highest realm.

Qin Yi was hitting the bottleneck of the Phoenix Initiation Level 7, which was already in the late Phoenix period. It was a small bottleneck and not easy to overcome.

This was also the level of Dong Huazi back then… Of course, not everyone’s level 7 was the same. The quality of each level of “Transformation Golden Chapter”, compared with Dong Huazi’s informal style, was probably like that of the head of department and the head of the commissary. Both were the head, but their power was different and the difficulty of promotion was also different.

The immortal aura inside his body was mystifying. This was the manifestation of “Qi” of nothingness. The transition from the richness of nothingness to the “visibility”, which was a typical feature of the later stage of the Phoenix Initiation.

While training, a slight “plop” sound suddenly came from the distance. Someone seemed to have fallen into the water.

Qin Yi frowned and opened his eyes.

If the trance was disrupted, it was difficult to enter the state again for a while.

“This woman, don’t tell me she is taking a shower again?”

Liu Su said, “It doesn’t feel like it. Is she taking a bath or jumping into the water?”

Qin Yi stood up suddenly, “She will be fine right?”

Seeing that he wanted to enter the secret passage, Liu Su smiled and said, “If she is really taking a bath, you will be chopped off.”

Qin Yi hesitated for a moment, “This is an emergency. If something really happens, I won’t be able to cultivate at ease?”

“Then go ahead. Just don’t complain if you get chopped.”

Without hesitation, Qin Yi rushed into the secret passage.

When he arrived at the edge of the pond, he saw Ming He floating on the surface of the pond, seeming to be fainted. There was a trace of blood on her mouth, and it dyed the pool water red.

Qin Yi rushed over, picked her up, and brought her on the green stone beside the pool.

Her clothes were intact, but they were wet, which highlighted her beautiful body even more.

Liu Su smacked its tongue twice.

The kindness in this man’s heart outweighs his desire. Maybe it’s the heaven will that he becomes my partner.

Qin Yi didn’t know what Liu Su was thinking. He helped Ming He sit upright, put a palm on her back, and channeled aura into her body.

He soon discovered that Ming He’s pulse was disordered and her spiritual force was chaotic. Fortunately, Ming He’s cultivation was the righteous way, so her unbridled spiritual force did not go berserk. Otherwise, her meridians might be destroyed.

Her injury isn’t too severe. Qin Yi closed his eyes and slowly smoothed and guided her spiritual foce back to her dantian.

In fact, Qin Yi wanted to give up, because he found that the quality of Ming He’s spiritual force was many times that of his own…

Her spiritual force was stronger than the ‘Qi’ of mine. He was happy by the ‘visible’ state of spiritual force, but she already had a golden pellet. Qi used the dantian as its foundation, circulated through the meridians, and returned to dantian. What Qin Yi needed to do now was to guide the chaotic spiritual force back.

Even if it was just guiding, it was very laborious. Just like a child pulling a burly man…

Not to mention that he was exhausted, his spiritual force was unreasonably pulled over. It didn’t merge with her spiritual force, but was scattered forcibly.

Like a child pulling the burly man fell and cried on the ground…

Qin Yi was really ashamed and angry.

However, the child’s effort still had some effect. The running burly man slowly returned to the right track. Although it was still a little chaotic, at least Ming He could wake up by herself.

He withdrew his palms.

Without the support of his palms, Ming He immediately fell backward.

As she fell into Qin Yi’s arms, Qin Yi stretched out his arms to hug her and looked down at her.

Ming He slowly opened her eyes and saw Qin Yi’s concerned eyes, “Are you okay? There is some disruption left, can you handle it yourself?”

Looking at Qin Yi’s pale face due to fatigue, Ming He’s eyes were extremely complicated. She said, “Thank you…”

Qin Yi frowned and said, “Speaking of which, how could you be possessed by negative influences? Your way of cultivation is so upright. I thought you were impossible to be possessed…”

Ming He pursed her lips and didn’t know how to answer.

How did it happen?

Because I wanted to rush it.

I was breaking through the level 3 of Cloud Riding Stage. I planned to leave here as soon as I break through this level. Leaving a man who desires me, and I don’t resist him. If we stay any longer, I will think more and more about “being together with him”.

In order to leave him, I used too much force, which violated the way of cultivaiton.

My cultivation is indeed upright and peaceful, but what is not peaceful is my own operation. I deserved to be possessed. Fortunately, my spiritual force is very peaceful in nature. The chaos caused by my impatience didn’t go too rampant, so it did not damage my meridians. Otherwise, the situation would be even worse.

Looking at Qin Yi’s concerned eyes and pale face, she really couldn’t say “because I want to leave early”. She changed her words, “Sorry for bringing you down together. You should be breaking through level 7 of the Phoenix Initiation Stage, but now your cultivation falls short again. I’m… sorry.”

“It’s just a trivial matter. Isn’t the elixir you gave me worth my little help?”

Ming He blurted out, “Was it just to repay the elixir?”

She regretted as soon as she said that, and the atmosphere became awkward because of her words.

What answer did she want from Qin Yi?

TL: She cares, but she doesn’t want to admit it…
