Chapter 141: The Immortal Will
Mu Dong'er was sleeping in his father's arms, his face was pink, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and he was having sweet dreams, but this was just an illusion, his body was hot and cold, when it was cold, it was like a thousand years of ice, and when it was hot, it was like burning coal, if he didn't have an extraordinarily strong body, Mu Xingqiu really couldn't hold him.
"Why did you leave me behind?" Mu Xingqiu asked, he had been confronting and fighting with Yang Yannian before, but he didn't have time to ask, and now he was free.
Nanhai Forest is located two thousand miles away in the south, not by the sea, it is too risky to use the Ancestor Tower to pass it over, and Mu Dong'er may not be able to bear it, Qin Lingshuang used the teleportation technique to take the father and son to a barren mountain about two hundred miles north of the forest, she was standing on the top of the mountain and looking south, detecting if there were spell prohibitions around.
Not long after midnight, the stars and moon in the sky were bright, and the mountain breeze was gentle, bringing bursts of flowers and plants.
"If you can find us, it proves that you have the ability to protect Mu Dong'er, if you can't, you don't have the ability. ”
"You...... You just want a proof?" Mu Xingqiu felt that this reason was a bit ridiculous.
"Exactly. Qin Lingshuang replied very seriously.
Mu Xingqiu stared at her face for a while, "This is the Dragon Demon's idea, right?"
Qin Lingshuang didn't answer, she shared the same body with the dragon demon, so naturally they had to advance and retreat together.
Mu Xingqiu shook his head, his stomach was full of doubts, especially what was his relationship with these two women in the past?
Yi Shijun predicted that Mu Dong'er would not survive midnight, and he could be regarded as surviving this hurdle, but he never woke up, which was not a good omen.
Qin Lingshuang withdrew the spell, the defense of the South Sea Forest was not tight, and they were still more than a hundred miles away from the first prohibition.
"Did you hear what Yang Yannian said about Divine Soul and Demon Soul?"
"Hmm. ”
"At the end of the day, the Demon Soul is also a will, from a certain cultivator in ancient times. After being possessed by the Demon Kings of the past dynasties, it has memories, but these memories belong to the Demon King, not the Demon Soul. ”
Mu Xingqiu nodded, losing the memory of the past has an advantage: being able to accept all kinds of statements without too many doubts.
"The last reincarnation of the Demon King was my father. Qin Lingshuang paused, her memories were all there, and the past suddenly came to mind, "More than two years ago, he was cornered by Kun Zhu in the imperial capital. ”
"It is said that he re-entered the cycle of reincarnation. Temporarily escaped Kun Chao's pursuit, and will awaken in twelve years, less than ten years from now. ”
Qin Lingshuang shook his head, "Countless reincarnations can't fight the Dao Unity, what can one more time be, not to mention that this time the enemy is even stronger." No, reincarnation is no longer the Demon King's plan, and I guess he made another choice. ”
Mu Xingqiu understood, "The Demon King abandoned his memories and left only the Demon Soul. Hidden in ...... In Dong'er's body?"
"It is very likely that this is more reasonable than reincarnation, when Mu Dong'er was also in the imperial capital and had been invaded by the demon seed for many years. Perfect for receiving demon spirits, and most importantly, he has a mother who loves him, and a father who will do anything to protect him. ”
"Listen to what Yi Shijun said. I'm not a good father...... Without memory, is a demon soul still a demon soul?"
Qin Lingshuang showed a hint of a smile, "This is exactly what the Demon King is unexpected. He refused to die at the hands of the Taoist priests, and instead chose to commit suicide, leaving only the immortal soul behind. ”
"Suicide, can't he be reincarnated without the immortal soul?"
"Maybe, but that's not the Demon King's choice. Qin Lingshuang looked at Mu Xingqiu, and for the first time felt that there was a thin layer of estrangement between the two, some things seemed clear and straightforward to her, and there was no need to explain them at all, but he looked very confused.
He lost his memory, just like a newborn walking in the world, naturally it is difficult to understand the demon king who has been reincarnated for more than 100,000 years, Qin Lingshuang can be, "The demon king has experienced almost every kind of life, and he has long been tired of it." ”
Mu Xingqiu reluctantly hummed, pondered for a while, and looked down at Mu Dong'er, "Without the memory of the Demon King, what is the remaining immortal soul? What is the difference between it and the divine soul? Why can Kun Chao still detect its existence?"
"There's more to guess here. Qin Lingshuang summoned the Ancestor Tower and began to cast spells on it, she had just learned a few tricks and needed to try it, "I know more about the Divine Soul, and it is not remarkable: the first is immortality, which can be stored in the body of all things in heaven and earth, and prefers humans or demon races; ”
"With these two points alone, the Divine Soul is already very remarkable. ”
Qin Lingshuang smiled, "As for the Demon Soul - let's call it the Demon Soul, although it no longer has the memory of the Demon King - it is also immortal, but its will is not comprehension, but conquest." ”
Mu Xingqiu couldn't understand it even more, "Conquest is also a kind of will?"
"Of course, how many founding kings and how many founding masters have the will to conquer, and as long as there is the slightest possibility of success, they will be willing to take risks just to one day dominate all beings. The demon soul is conquering, and those who possess it would rather die than be subservient. When the memory of the demon king is reincarnated with the demon soul, he never dares to live too long, because when the demon soul is completely awakened, the demon king will not be able to be satisfied with the status quo, even if he does not challenge the Taoist system, he will become the king of people. ”
Mu Xingqiu looked at his son in surprise.
Qin Lingshuang smiled again, "Don't be afraid, conquest is not a bad thing, it is the same as understanding, it is a kind of will that everyone has, some people are more obvious, some people are more secretive, long before being possessed by the demon soul, Mu Dong'er was not a child who was willing to obey others, after having the demon soul, it just made his will stronger." He is still young, and when the demon soul is fully awakened, he will also grow up, and at that time he will do everything he can to improve his cultivation, because he can't stand that someone is stronger than himself. ”
"This is the Demon King's revenge plan?" Mu Xingqiu finally understood.
"I guess so, the Demon King killed all his memories, but he would never forgive his enemies. "Qin Lingshuang didn't say something clearly, the reason why the Demon King deposited the immortal soul in Mu Dong'er's body is probably not only this child, but also the child's father, Mu Xingqiu is mature and strong-willed, and the demon soul can't live there, but he will spare no effort to protect his son. At the same time, it is also protecting the demon soul.
Mr. Qin had observed Mu Xingqiu, and of course he knew what kind of person this was.
Mu Xingqiu looked down at Mu Dong'er again, the demon soul is just a will, and it has not changed the facts, Mu Dong'er is still Mu Xingqiu's son, he remembers it clearly, this may also be one of the spells of the demon king, so that he will not forget his son at any time, but the spell does not lie.
"Kun Chao wants to kill all living beings, and he is the enemy of all living beings. Nature is also my enemy. Mu Xingqiu hugged his son tighter.
Qin Lingshuang was not surprised by this at all, "So you see, conquest is not all bad, if there is a person like Kun Zhen, there must be someone who defeats him." ”
"What kind of person will Dong'er become in the end?" Mu Xingqiu only had a little doubt in his heart.
"In the end, there is no final, if Mu Dong'er becomes the second Kun Zhu, then sooner or later someone will defeat him again. The stronger the stronger, the more they want the world to remain unchanged, and from this point of view, the strongest are enemies of the world. Don't think that far ahead. ”
Qin Lingshuang handed the Patriarch Pagoda to Mu Xingqiu.
Mu Xingqiu didn't answer, "You need to use it." ”
"Give me the Demon Bell, you use it. ”
Mu Xingqiu took the tower and summoned the Demon Suppression Bell and handed it to Qin Lingshuang. There was still a thin layer of light on the bell's body, and there were several brighter talismans, which together trapped the Arcana so that the Demon Suppression Bell would not return to its old master.
"You know a lot. Your speculations seem to me to be true. Mu Xingqiu said sincerely.
"I've spent a long time thinking about these things, and I have a spirit. Qin Lingshuang understated, in her loneliest moment. The Divine Soul is not around, but her comprehension is still stronger than most people, "I used some pills and cast some spells to temporarily save Mu Dong'er's life, and the next few days will be on his own, the cultivator's injuries can only heal themselves, I will lend the Divine Soul to him, just to provide a little help." ”
Mu Xingqiu wanted to say "thank you", but felt that these two words were too simple and not enough to express his gratitude, so he nodded and hummed a little stiffly.
Qin Lingshuang glanced up at the stars and moon above his head, and felt that the time was almost up, "Yang Yannian left a mark on the Demon Suppression Bell, my spell and your talisman can't be hidden for too long, he will find our location soon, we have to do it in advance." ”
"Okay, I'll fight in the front, please take care of Dong'er. ”
Qin Lingshuang summoned the small incense burner with the secret book of the Dao system again, "No, this time you stay, there are three records in the furnace related to the talisman, it may be helpful to you, learn it as soon as possible, go to Nanhai Forest to find me before dawn." ”
"There are three grandmasters in Nanhai Forest, you are ...... alone"
"We were two people. I'll find a way to remove the mark from the Demon Suppression Bell, and you can use it as a talisman pen in the Ancestor Tower. ”
Qin Lingshuang's tone was not a little harsh, but it had an irresistible power, Mu Xingqiu didn't argue anymore, "I'll go to you as soon as possible." ”
"With the new talisman, I need you to be stronger than you are now. ”
Qin Lingshuang added a few more spells to the Demon Suppression Bell, rose up, and flew towards the South China Sea Forest two hundred miles away.
Mu Xingqiu no longer thought about it meaninglessly, sat on the grass, let Mu Dong'er lean on his arms, and began to check the secret book of the Dao system in the incense burner, Qin Lingshuang had already selected three for him and translated the magic text into ordinary words. Mu Xingqiu read carefully, one of them recorded the method of how to turn the magic weapon into a talisman pen, and the other two were not directly related to the talisman, but the method of how to use the Dao Treasure of the Dao System.
That's all there is to the record of talismans in the secret book of the Dao system.
Time passed little by little, and Mu Xingqiu found Zhao Chuye's memories in his mind again, there were many early Dao runes, which were much more powerful than the Longbin Hui runes that Mu Xingqiu learned from Fu Lin, he selected a few runes that should be very powerful according to the records, practiced silently several times in his heart, and got up to help Qin Lingshuang.
Mu Xingqiu tried his best to save time, but more than an hour had passed, and it was not long before dawn, he picked up Mu Dong'er and flew towards the South China Sea Forest as fast as he could, still pondering the newly learned talisman on the way.
The 200-mile journey was quickly completed, and the South China Sea Forest was in front of it, and the forest, which was like an ocean in the past, now has only thousands of acres left, and it can be seen at a glance in mid-air.
Mu Xingqiu felt strange, there was no prohibition outside the South China Sea forest, and there was no sign of fighting in the forest, everything seemed to be over.
