Chapter 515 Live Like a Human Being
After Yan Ziye left, only Su Li remained on the top of the mountain. The snow became heavy suddenly. It was snowing in great flakes, and the world became quieter.
Su Li dressed in thin clothes. With her eyes narrowed slightly, somehow, she suddenly thought of the first day when she woke up in the second life in the Reincarnation Mirror.
It also snowed heavily on that day, and her body was as thin as now. But now, she could not feel cold anymore.
Just within one year, she had mastered the blood burning method illustration. The principle behind it was to produce a strange power through picturing the rune in mind for unleashing the strength of the bloodstone.
According to Black Lotus, it was called “contemplation method”, which was quite popular among the Human Clan in ancient times. But it was lost now and rarely seen.
“Contemplation and the curb that I saw in Cang Lei’s Cave… All the powerful spells inherited from the ancient times are lost now, and there must be reasons for it. However, whenever I mentioned it to Black Lotus, he never told me any details. Is it because I haven’t reached that level yet?”
Rubbing the ring on her finger, Su Li took back her scattered thoughts and refocused on her practice.
The contemplation method consumed souls, and even she could not practice it day and night. Therefore, she made use of the time for rest to refine the spiritual jades.
She felt very comfortable and was not so tired when the nimbus of the spiritual jades got into her body. Then just in one year, all the spiritual jades as compensation provided by the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce were used up by her.
“The Suiyu Seed is full and almost burst. My feel can’t go wrong. It’s time to move forward to the next level of Suiyu Tactics.”
When Su Li thought of it, the Suiyu Tactics in her body was going to be broken through. For an instant, the veil of the next level of Suiyu Tactics was torn away silently. The narrow mountain top was enveloped by mysterious air instantly, and the void was distorted like a polygonal mirror. Even Su Li’s figure was completely distorted.
“Kill! Kill, kill, kill!”
“Since the world did not tolerate you, you must fight for yourself!”
“Families and lover are all obstacles. Just kill them all!”
“Only the doctrine of lustration can…”
The evil ghost behind her suddenly swelled. It opened his mouth, which was full of canine teeth, and swallowed the black air around Su Li’s ears.
The magic sound stopped abruptly.
The evil ghost’s body waved for a moment. Then it calmed down soon and returned to its original state.
Su Li dipped her fingertips with a little bit of residual air with interest, and wondered.
What was this?
Was it the test after I made a breakthrough? But the test was too simple. Even if the evil ghost didn’t swallow it, she still wouldn’t shake her faith.
Was her state of mind too strong?
Su Li didn’t think so. Her state of mind was indeed different from that of ordinary practitioners, but the magic sound just now was so weak that even Yan Ziye and others could stand up to it.
“In this case, the level of Suiyu Tactics I broke through is nothing. There even are a large number of disciples who broke through the second level of it in the ancient times. My physical cultivation has already met the conditions, but there was only a lack of those spiritual jades.”
Thinking of this, Su Li sighed lightly.
Even if casual practitioners got a mental method, they had to explore and research on their own because of no corresponding practice method. It was the difficult situation of casual practitioners. So, if she could save the time of exploring, the time for practice would be considerably reduced.
“Kuiyu Palace… I’m afraid that only the classics collected by the holy sects can record a few words about this force, while it is too far away for me.
Forget it, I have to be patient to practice the Suiyu Tactics. It’s better for me start with Chuangxing Path. Perhaps the Star Hall could surprise me.”
Su Li adjusted her mind and raised right hand. A transparent thin film was formed on her white skin, like gauze.
“Is it brought by reaching the second level of the Suiyu Tactics?”
Su Li sensed it carefully and tried to control the film. Suddenly, she felt the film quivered slightly and emitted a very special scent.
However, even Su Li herself couldn’t figure out what the scent was. Additionally, there was no object to attack, so she didn’t know the effect of the scent.
Buzz—
After a faint buzz, the special scent spread to the hundreds of meters away and then dissipated. But Su Li clearly felt that a small world seemed to be created within the hundred meters, and if she took actions there, it would not be noticed by natural law.
With a second thought, Su Li took all the scent back into her body. Then it returned to normal in the surrounding area. She whispered, “Black Lotus…”
With a gloomy face, the Black Lotus sprang out of the ring reluctantly, and said in surprise, “Without my guidance, you should really explore the way to practice the Suiyu Tactics!”
Su Li titled her head with a horrible smile, and her eyes flashed, “It seems that you have known the practice method of the Suiyu Tactics, but you don’t tell me, right?”
“No, I don’t!”
Black Lotus shook his head immediately, and said, “I only know that practice the Suiyu Tactics needs the jade energy, and I don’t know anything else!”
“You should conceal such important information deliberately.”
Su Li still smiled, “Tell me the why, otherwise…”
Sputter!
A little electric light rose from her fingertips, which made Black Lotus scared very much!
The ubiquitous thunderbolts in the Mount Fenglei, coupled with the divine thunder running in Su Li’s body, had already tortured him cruelly. It took him a year to recover his spirit!
“Master, don’t be angry. I tell you now!”
Black Lotus was aggrieved and felt like crying with anger, “The Suiyu Tactics is exactly the protecting method of the Kuiyu Palace. But no one succeed to practice it except the Great Lord himself, and everyone whoever tried to practice it all went crazy!”
Su Li looked cold, “Why didn’t you say it earlier?”
“That existence gives you the method, and how dare I to stop it?”
A faint look of fear appeared on Black Lotus face, “I didn’t expect you find the way to practice it. Your practice method is different from that of the disciples of the Kuiyu Palace, and you don’t use the Pojing Jade.”
Su Li raised her eyebrows, “Didn’t you say just now that you didn’t know the specific practice method of the Kuiyu Palace?”
Black Lotus immediately covered his face, and realized that he spilled the beans.
He thought, “I didn’t tell the truth not because I’m afraid, but I underestimated the people of the world, and also underestimated…Su Li!”
“Fine, if I had made an enemy of holy sects in those years, I wouldn’t have missed any way to become stronger. Perhaps I would go crazy, but so what? Even if I really go crazy, I must be the lunatic who scares the Fate Ancestor.”
Su Li’s eyes were extremely cold and her tone was cold-blooded, which made Black Lotus break out in a cold sweat.
Did the master go further and further on the path of going mad?
A scene of a mad woman being besieged by hundreds of holy sects naturally appeared in his mind, and his lips was quivering. He thought that even for his own sake, he needed to prevent Su Li from becoming a madwoman.
“Master, don’t rush to extremes. Since the Great Lord of the Kuiyu Palace could practice the Suiyu Tactics successfully, you might be able to do it. Master, did you hear the magic sound bewitching in your ears when you practiced it just now?”
Su Li smiled and said with a nod, “Yes.”
Black Lotus instantly felt that he seemed to be fooled, but now he didn’t want to think too much. He said with a frown, “It is a sign of being possessed by the devil. The devil I am talking about is not a character of evil circle, but a real demon. Master, if you were bewitched by the magic sound, you would lose your mind, and even couldn’t be able to maintain a human figure at that time… You would become the lower demon that only knew to kill, just like pigs and dogs.”
“Oh?”
Su Li twisted her fingertips, as if recalling the feeling just now, “The magic sound is not a threat to me, and it doesn’t affect me at all.”
“Master, you just get started now. Never underestimate it.”
Black Lotus sighed, and thought of the disciples in the Kuiyu Palace, whose reaction was exactly the same as Su Li’s.
“Although the magic sound is not powerful to fight with you now, it will hibernate and wait for an opportunity. Additionally, it can even absorb your escaped pneuma to strengthen itself. When you break through the Suiyu Tactics next time, the second magic sound will also be produced. Then the two magic sounds will fill your ears, and become more powerful in bewitching you! Next time, it will be three…”
“Wait!”
Su Li suddenly interrupted Black Lotus, and said in a weird tone, “You said that the magic sound would hibernate?”
“Yes.”
Black Lotus nodded. All the people who once stayed in the Kuiyu Palace knew it. Even though he meant to steal…Bah, to take something, he also kept in mind this common sense.
Su Li chuckled, “I know where the magic sound is.”
“What?”
Black Lotus was stunned for a moment. Then he saw the little master point at her shadow, and said helplessly, “It seems to have eaten something terrible.”
“???”
Black Lotus suddenly became even more confused.
The evil ghost naturally restrained magic sounds?
There was no precedent before, and Su Li was the first. Black Lotus was caught in a long-term confusion.
While Su Li didn’t think so much. It was a long time to break through the Suiyu Tactics next time. For her, it was just a method to enhance her strength among lots of skills she mastered.
“Sometimes, mastering too much is not a good thing.”
Back in the adytum, Su Li set aside the Black Lotus and began to analyze what she had learned, taking the essence and removing the dross. It was extremely necessary before she headed out to the Chuangxing Path again.
The first was body cultivation. Thanks to countless times of nature’s punishments, her physical body had been tempered repeatedly. The Cuixing Method for swordsmanship and boxing could no longer increase the strength of her physical body. On the Chuangxing Path last time, she didn’t use the Tenth Sword, although it was powerful. It was because it would consume eighty percent of genuine energy.
Now, she could wield the Tenth Sword for hundreds of times in the blink of an eye merely with her physical body.
Su Li tried to practice the Eleventh Sword, but Black Lotus reminded her that she lacked the characteristics of schools. It was difficult for her to comprehend it. She did not plan to leave the Jiuzhou Region to search them in a short time, so she had to set it aside temporary. Boxing method and the like had been completely reduced to a means of attack, no longer a way to improve.
The Ghost Valley Meditation Direction, the harvest in the Reincarnation Mirror, had been thoroughly understood by her. She even combined it with her memory in the Qingshui Circle, and introduced a new and unique medicine refining school.
After she the understood the Destruction Will of Sword, all the moves in the Ao Sword Skills were meaningless. Only the Refinement Will of Sword was left, and the others were abandoned.
After the rebirth, there was a body of evil ghost, and then she encountered the divine thunder…
The evil ghost appeared behind Su Li. She looked back at her past face and smiled.
“Su Li, Su Li, you finally live like a human being.”
