"Ah?" Ling Qingxue couldn't help but turn pale when she heard this. She couldn't help covering her mouth and then asked with concern, "What happened after that?"
Xia Ruofei said, "The situation was really bad at that time. The Peach Blossom Miasma is a poison that invades the soul. Ordinary detoxification methods can't cure it at all. I happened to have a kind of spiritual medicine that can nourish the soul. I gave it to Song Wei in time, and the injury to her soul improved as a result. At the same time, the Peach Blossom Miasma was temporarily suppressed."
Xia Ruofei paused for a moment and looked at Ling Qingxue before continuing, "But that method only treated the symptoms, not the root cause. Because the Peach Blossom Miasma had already invaded her sea of consciousness, my Spiritual Cultivation was not much stronger than yours at that time. I couldn't get rid of the poison at all. "
"And then?" Ling Qingxue asked.
"You know, it's very dangerous to use your Spiritual Strength to enter another person's sea of consciousness and fight against the poison in her sea of consciousness. If you're not careful, it may cause her soul to suffer irreversible damage, and she may even become a living dead in the true sense of the word." Xia Ruofei said, "Song Wei was injured and poisoned in order to help me. At that time, I also tried my best to find a way to save her."
Ling Qingxue had a faint guess in her heart, but she didn't say anything. She just listened quietly.
Xia Ruofei continued, "So I thought of the Questioning Heart Sutra of Genesis. I got this cultivation method by chance. Its biggest feature is that during the cultivation process, it can gradually synchronize the soul frequency of two people. In this case, the risk of entering the other person's sea of consciousness is naturally much lower."
"So … Song Wei also practiced this cultivation method?" Ling Qingxue asked.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "At that time, I couldn't think of any other way at all. This was almost a life-saving straw! Fortunately, Song Wei's talent for cultivation is not bad. She successfully completed the first step of this cultivation method not long after she came into contact with it. "
"Cultivation talent?" Ling Qingxue asked. "Does cultivation need talent? Ruofei, what about my talent? Between me and Song Wei, who is more talented? "
Xia Ruofei did not expect that Ling Qingxue would interrupt him when he was about to reach the key point. He smiled bitterly in his heart, but he still explained patiently, "The path of cultivation has always been against the heavens. Not everyone can cultivate. Some people are born with weak constitutions. Even if they have a top-notch cultivation technique, they may not be able to enter the door even if they work hard for a lifetime. Thus, talent is still very important! As for your talent … "
Xia Ruofei hesitated for a moment.
"What's wrong? Ruofei, just tell me the truth, "Ling Qingxue said." Is it because my talent is too bad? "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "That's not entirely true. If it were now, your talent would be stronger than Song Wei's by a bit …"
Ling Qingxue understood what he meant and immediately asked, "Now? Do you mean that my talent was too bad before? Does it mean that talent can be changed? "
Since Ling Qingxue asked this question, Xia Ruofei did not intend to hide it. He thought for a moment and nodded. "Your talent is not particularly good. It should be said that you are not suitable for cultivation. Normally, a person's talent is born. It is difficult to change it. However, there are exceptions to everything … "
He paused for a moment and continued, "Do you remember that I gave you a lot of Chinese medicine before I officially taught you the 'Taichu Questioning Heart Sutra'? I said that it was to nourish your body. "
"Of course I remember!" Ling Qingxue said, "The medicine was bitter …"
Xia Ruofei asked again, "Do you know what the ingredients in those herbs are?"
Ling Qingxue shook her head.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "The main ingredient is called the Heart Grass. It is a precious spiritual herb that has a great nourishing effect on the soul. This kind of spiritual herb is rare in the entire cultivation world. "
Ling Qingxue could not help but stick out her tongue and say, "It's so precious!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "At that time, Song Wei's soul was injured. He also used the Heart Grass to help him recover. He used one of my Heart Grass. As for you … you used a total of two Heart Grass when your soul was not injured at all … "
"Oh my god!" Ling Qingxue said, "Isn't that too wasteful?"
Although she said that, there was still a sweet feeling in her heart because she could feel how much Xia Ruofei cared about her. The more precious the Heart Grass was, the more important she was in Xia Ruofei's heart.
What's more, when Song Wei's soul was injured, Xia Ruofei only gave him one Heart Grass. Obviously, the treatment she enjoyed was much better.
With a comparison, it was more precious. Ling Qingxue was also happy in her heart.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Qingxue, after taking two Heart Grass, your cultivation talent is higher than Song Wei's. And this kind of spiritual herb is not better. If you continue to take it, the effect will be very limited. In addition, I don't have any more Heart Grass, so … "
"Ruofei, you've been very good to me …" Ling Qingxue said, a little touched. "You don't have to explain!"
Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "Let's continue to talk about Song Wei … Her cultivation talent is also very good. Soon, we will try to practice together. You also know that the efficiency of practicing the 'Soul-Searching Sutra' alone is very low. My original intention of teaching Song Wei this cultivation method is to use the practice together to adjust the frequency of our souls to a synchronized state at any time. This way, I can help her suppress the peach blossom miasma in her sea of consciousness. With the continuous increase of our spiritual power, the peach blossom miasma will be eliminated eventually."
Ling Qingxue nodded in agreement.
Xia Ruofei continued, "Actually, the 'Soul-Searching Sutra' didn't mention the method of 'Soul-Searching Sutra'. It only mentioned that two people practicing together can greatly increase the efficiency of cultivation. The reason I discovered that 'Soul-Searching Sutra' is the best way to practice the 'Soul-Searching Sutra' is because …"
Xia Ruofei hesitated when he said this. On the other hand, Ling Qingxue was very calm. Although her face was a little pale, she still calmly took the initiative to ask, "This method … was discovered by you and Song Wei in the process of cultivation, right?"
Xia Ruofei nodded speechlessly.
"You've already practiced 'Soul-Searching Sutra'?" Ling Qingxue asked.
Her voice was still very calm, but her eyes were slightly red. She couldn't hide the look of grievance on her face.
Xia Ruofei nodded silently. Then he sighed and said, "Qingxue, it was really an accident … At that time, I was working in the capital, and Song Wei was also studying in the capital. We both wanted to get rid of the peach blossom miasma as soon as possible, so she would go to the courtyard house to practice with me when she was free, hoping to improve her cultivation as soon as possible …"
Then Xia Ruofei told Ling Qingxue everything that had happened during that joint practice.
Of course, he didn't say that Song Wei insisted on taking the risk to try to get rid of the peach blossom miasma. Instead, he said that at that time, they both felt that their cultivation had improved a lot. In order to prevent the peach blossom miasma from mutating in the sea of consciousness, they decided to try to get rid of it by entering the sea of consciousness first.
After saying this, Xia Ruofei looked into Ling Qingxue's eyes and said, "Qingxue, I really didn't expect something like this to happen … To be honest, I don't know much about the sea of consciousness, and the situation was very dangerous at that time. The peach blossom miasma mutated spontaneously and began to devour each other, becoming stronger and stronger. If I hadn't made a prompt decision, not only would Song Wei's soul have been destroyed, but I would also have been seriously injured. Therefore, I had no other choice but to take the risk and break into the core island in Song Wei's sea of consciousness.
I didn't expect … "After hearing this, Ling Qingxue was silent for a long time and didn't say anything.
Xia Ruofei also looked at Ling Qingxue silently.
After a long time, Ling Qingxue asked, "So … what do you think? For the two of us … "
Xia Ruofei said, "Qingxue, you've also tried to cultivate both soul and body. You should know that the contact on the soul level is really unforgettable. I have to be honest with you. I … I … can't give up on Song Wei. She was injured and poisoned because she was helping me. What happened between us was an accident during the detoxification process. Even though we didn't have any intimate contact in real life, on the soul level, we've already … "
"You don't have to say anymore!" Ling Qingxue interrupted Xia Ruofei with red eyes. "I don't want to hear this from you! Ruofei, I just want to know … when you and her … cultivated both soul and body together, was it before or after you taught me how to cultivate? "
Xia Ruofei was silent for a while before he said, "Before …"
"If that's the case, then why did you still teach me how to cultivate?" Ling Qingxue became a little agitated. "The feeling of cultivating both soul and body together is so wonderful. It'll be great if you're with her! Why did you drag me into this? "
Xia Ruofei's face was full of guilt. He said, "Qingxue, it was Song Wei who asked me to do this. She hoped that you could understand and forgive her, but cultivating both soul and body together is something that can't be understood unless you're a real cultivator. You might even think it's a fantasy."
Ling Qingxue smiled self-deprecatingly and asked, "So you wanted me to experience that feeling for myself? Just so I could understand the two of you? "
"Of course not!" Xia Ruofei immediately said sincerely, "Qingxue, of course I wanted you to cultivate with me! Cultivators have a long lifespan. Of course I didn't want you to leave me in a few decades and I'd have to live alone in this world for hundreds of years, or even longer … "
"Don't you already have Song Wei?" Ling Qingxue said with a trace of sadness on her face. "You're the immortal couple. I'm just dispensable!"
Xia Ruofei said anxiously, "Qingxue, what are you talking about? You'll always be irreplaceable in my heart! Two stalks of Heart Coagulation Grass are enough to improve the talent of two cultivators, but I didn't hesitate to use it on you. At that time, I had already made up my mind that if you still couldn't cross the threshold of cultivation, I would get a third stalk of Heart Coagulation Grass for you no matter the price … "
When Ling Qingxue heard Xia Ruofei's words, the scene of Xia Ruofei bringing her the medicinal soup appeared in her mind again. At that time, she naturally didn't know that the medicinal soup was so precious. Now that she thought about it, the scene warmed her heart again.
However, Ling Qingxue thought about Song Wei again and imagined the scene of the two of them cultivating together. She couldn't help but feel wronged.
The conflicting emotions made Ling Qingxue's expression change constantly.
Xia Ruofei looked at Ling Qingxue and felt a pang of heartache. He said, "Qingxue, I don't ask for your forgiveness and understanding, but I sincerely hope that you won't blame Song Wei. She didn't want it to be like this. It's really fate that makes fools of people …"
Ling Qingxue stared silently at the deck under her feet. After a while, she looked up and asked, "Ruofei, I just want to ask you one thing. She and I have both cultivated together with you. Who are you going to choose?"
Xia Ruofei was in a difficult position. He asked carefully, "Can I choose both of them?"
Ling Qingxue's eyes widened. She stared at Xia Ruofei and asked, "You … What are you thinking?"
Xia Ruofei hurriedly said, "This wasn't my idea …"
"Could it have been Song Wei's idea?" Ling Qingxue asked unhappily.
"She really did bring it up herself." Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly. "To be honest, I was really shocked at the time. However, she said that if I chose to be with her, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life. And if I chose you, she wouldn't be able to accept it at all, as someone who had experienced cultivating together. So …"
"She really said that?" Ling Qingxue asked with a look of disbelief.
"Those were her exact words," Xia Ruofei said with absolute certainty.
Ling Qingxue had just experienced cultivating together. Naturally, she knew how intense the thrill that came from the depths of her soul was.
Thinking of that experience, Ling Qingxue actually had some understanding of Song Wei.
However, she quickly came back to her senses. She snorted softly and said, "How could she have such a ridiculous idea?! What era is it now? How could two people … be together with the same man at the same time? "
Xia Ruofei knew that this was the time to act pitifully. He said with a pitiful look, "Qingxue, what should I do? No matter which one of you it is, I can't give up … So … Your cultivation has reached the standard for cultivating together. I will immediately take you to cultivate together. I hope that after experiencing it firsthand, you can understand my … and Song Wei's suggestion … "
Ling Qingxue was stunned at first. Then, she looked deeply at Xia Ruofei and said, "Ruofei, you chose to tell me this when we were out at sea because you were worried that I would leave in a fit of anger, right? In this big sea, even if I wanted to leave, I can't, right? "
Xia Ruofei laughed dryly and said, "Isn't … isn't this a coincidence?"
"I think you deliberately arranged it, right?" Ling Qingxue said with a half-smile, "Also, I remember that you miraculously won the bet yesterday. The bet was for me to promise you something. You must have planned this in advance, right? I really didn't expect that someone as honest as you would have so many tricks up your sleeve … "
The gentle voice in the steel gun said,
