"What?" Meng Qi thought she had heard wrong.
"I just said," Lin Yan paced in front of her, "If you choose, it's him … …"
She pointed into the air and happily drew a semicircle. "It's still them."
Meng Qi stood with her hands at her sides as though she did not hear Lin Yan's words.
"I'll give you some time to consider." Lin Yan propped up her chin. She waved her hand and a stick of incense floated in front of Meng Qi.
With a flick of her finger, white smoke rose from the incense stick, and a sweet fragrance wafted from it. "Thirty minutes."
She waved her hand again. New willow branches silently came out of the air and weaved into the shape of a swing.
Lin Yan happily sat on the swing. Her legs kicked and she really started to swing.
Meng Qi: "… …"
She looked at Lin Yan and then looked into the air.
On the big tree, the heads of her friends were all hanging down, tied tightly by vines and hanging in the air.
On the bed of willow branches, Yun Qingyan was lying there silently. Meng Qi had never seen him like this before.
"Meng Qi." Lin Yan swung higher and higher as she giggled and called her name. "I heard them all call you this, can I also call you this?"
Her voice was crisp, her laughter cheerful, and her beauty was enough to topple cities. She looked like the most innocent and bright young girl.
"Elder." Meng Qi looked away and turned to look at her. "Do you need ling energy?"
She touched her storage bag and a brocade pouch appeared in her palm. "There are six thousand Xuan spirit stones here … …"
Meng Qi took out another brocade pouch. "There are more than one thousand Xuan spirit stones here."
The spirit stones of the three realms contained a lot of ling energy.
The grades of spirit stones were determined by the amount of ling energy they contained.
The ling energy in one Xuan spirit stone was equivalent to the ling energy of a second realm Mahayana cultivator.
Of course, the Ling Qi in the spirit stones could not be completely used by the xiuzhe, unless it was a formation cultivator or a weapon cultivator who could use it to drive the formation.
"What do I need this inanimate object for?" Lin Yan glanced at the brocade pouch in Meng Qi's hand, unmoved.
She lazily leaned on the swing, her feet gently kicking the ground. The corners of her lips were slightly raised, revealing two small dimples. As the swing swayed, the pearl on her head also swayed gently, making her look innocent and cute.
However, the words that came out of her mouth could not be more cruel and heartless. "Hurry up and choose, Meng Qi. Half an incense stick's worth of time has already passed. At that time, if you still don't choose, they will all be mine. "
As Lin Yan spoke, he laughed again. He stretched out his hand and drew a big arc in the air. His eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles.
"I've already made an exception for you. The cultivators who came here before didn't even have the chance to choose. Furthermore … "
Lin Yan's gaze landed on Meng Qi's face. "I will not harm you."
Meng Qi: "… …"
She glanced at the thin incense stick. As expected, half an incense stick's worth of time had passed.
But why was this?
Why did this Lin Yan Qianbei take other people's ling qi for?
Meng Qi turned to look at Lin Yan. The other's head was slightly lowered, the pearl-studded shoes on her feet lightly touching the ground. Her long black hair was pulled into an exquisite bun with an exquisite and luxurious hairpin inserted.
There were pink tassels at her elbows. Those tassels swayed lightly with her movements as though they were dancing.
Meeting Meng Qi's gaze, Lin Yan even smiled at her.
The smile was sweet and sincere. Even her gaze was clear and full of smiles without any gloominess.
She quickly moved her gaze away and softly hummed a song. The song was as sweet as her smile. Even though it was intermittent, it could be heard that she was in a good mood.
Meng Qi looked around.
Other than the sound of Lin Yan humming, there were no other sounds in the forest.
The song was very unfamiliar. It was something she had never heard before. It had a bit of a foreign style and did not seem like the songs that people in the three thousand worlds would often sing.
This place was strange everywhere, from the forest, to Lin Yan, and even … … Yun Qingyan who had suddenly appeared.
Meng Qi raised her head and looked at the unconscious white-clothed man lying silently on the bed woven from willow branches.
A few strands of his long black hair were scattered outside the bed. He looked very helpless.
Even in her last life, Meng Qi had never seen him like this. Even when his five spirits had been in the Falling Cloud Heights and he had almost lost control.
She had never seen him like this before.
"Meng Qi," Lin Yan followed her gaze and said with a smile, "you still miss him the most, right?"
Meng Qi didn't answer.
Lin Yan didn't seem to care. She lowered her head and looked at her feet. The pearls on her shoes were round and cute, emitting a soft light.
"Actually …" She grabbed the swing with both hands, and her voice was tinged with a bit of melancholy. "sometimes it's not a bad thing to be selfish."
As Lin Yan spoke, she reached out and pressed her chest. "It's good to follow your heart. Otherwise, you'll regret it in the future. It will be a heart-wrenching pain that will last for thousands of years. No matter how high your medical skills are, you won't be able to get rid of it."
"Okay," Meng Qi agreed readily.
"Hmm?" Lin Yan seemed to be a little surprised. Her big eyes turned to Meng Qi. "Have you thought it through?"
She chuckled and waved her delicate hand. "So have you decided now? Are you going to save your favorite little lover? "
"No." Meng Qi shook her head.
She suddenly sat down on the ground, one hand propping up her chin as she looked up. She turned and said to Lin Yan, "Elder Lin Yan, can you lower the willow bed a bit? It's hard for me to look at it like this. "
Lin Yan: "???"
She stilled and then waved her hand.
The willow bed really did slowly descend. Yun Qingyan who was lying on it also landed.
Even though Meng Qi was sitting on the ground, she could see everything clearly.
She propped up her chin and looked almost unrestrained at Yun Qingyan.
There was no lack of beauties in the Three Realms. There were many good-looking xiuzhe.
Lin Yan leaned on the swing and followed Meng Qi's gaze. After a moment, the corners of her lips rose slightly and showed small dimples. "He's very good-looking."
"En." Meng Qi nodded.
"But it's not just because he's good-looking, right?" Lin Yan imitated her and propped up her chin as she examined Yun Qingyan. "If it's just good-looking, there are too many beauties in the world."
This time, Meng Qi did not speak.
"There's only a third of the incense left." Lin Yan did not ask and raised her chin towards the incense. "Here, it's useless to stall for time. Ha ha … … "
She seemed to think of something interesting and laughed softly. "There are too many places in the world where it's useless to stall for time. The heavens have already decided, people cannot break free."
Meng Qi turned to look at Lin Yan. "Didn't Elder Lin Yan once go against the heavens to save people?"
"Go against the heavens … …" Lin Yan murmured and repeated Meng Qi's words. She seemed to think of something interesting and suddenly giggled.
She tilted her head to look at Meng Qi. "You are also a medical cultivator, let me ask you."
"Elder, please go ahead."
"If one day, you had to choose between saving the lives of strangers in the city or saving the lives of your loved ones, which would you choose?"
Meng Qi was stunned.
Lin Yan flicked her sleeves and stood up.
The bracelets on her body jingled with her movements.
Lin Yan paced a few steps left and right. She didn't seem to want Meng Qi to answer this question. She looked at her with a smile. "The incense is about to burn out. Little medical cultivator, I'll spare your life. If you don't choose, none of them … … will be able to leave! "
After Lin Yan finished speaking, she raised her hand and the willow tree bed slowly rose. The tall fallen heart trees in the forest were originally quiet, but at this time, the leaves rustled as if there was a wind blowing.
Only a very short section of the incense stick was left on the ground.
"Elder Lin Yan." Meng Qi looked at the green smoke curling up from the incense stick. "Can I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead." Lin Yan said to her generously.
While the two of them were talking, the last wisp of smoke curled up from the incense stick and dissipated in the air.
"Time's up." Lin Yan stood up and looked at Meng Qi.
She was talking to Meng Qi with a smile just now, humming a song and looking very easy-going. She also called "Meng Qi" very affectionately.
Now, her expression was cold, and even her gaze became a bit cold. "But you can still ask the last question."
Meng Qi pushed herself up from the ground with her hand.
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the expression she looked at Lin Yan with changed. "Elder Lin Yan, I've only seen fallen heart trees in books, but I've never seen them in the trichiliocosm. The books said that the leaves of fallen heart trees can cause hallucinations. In addition, they have a very important function. "
"Oh?" Lin Yan raised her hand, and a fallen heart tree leaf appeared in her palm.
Her fingers were white and slender as she played with the green leaf. It was very pleasing to the eye.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, in the ancient times, other than the sword xiu, spell xiu, medical xiu, there were also formation xiu, and … …"
Meng Qi looked into Lin Yan's eyes. "There was a branch of xiuzhe among the mo xiu called the puppet masters. They could make puppets that they could use."
"You know a lot." Lin Yan curled her lips. "There is such a thing."
Meng Qi continued, "At first, the puppet masters would only use tree branches, fur, and ores to make puppets, but their power was limited and their fighting power was not strong. Later, they actually started to use living xiuzhe to make puppets, bewitching them and causing the consciousness of these xiuzhe to collapse. They could only listen to the orders of the puppet masters. This way, the puppet masters angered the public and were hunted down by xiuzhe. Their inheritance was cut off. "
Lin Yan did not immediately respond this time.
She raised her eyes to look at Meng Qi, light flashing through her eyes.
"The leaf of the fallen heart tree is something that the puppet masters need to control the xiuzhe puppets." Meng Qi said, "The strongest hallucinogen in the Three Realms only exists in books because it was destroyed by the ancient great powers when the puppet masters were killed."
Lin Yan's eyes moved as she stared at Meng Qi for a long while. She suddenly laughed.
Her bell-like laughter echoed in the forest. Other than that, there was no other sound. It did not sound sweet, and was slightly eerie.
"Continue." Lin Yan stood and paced in front of Meng Qi.
Her lips curled slightly, her gaze even colder than before. "I didn't think that you would know so much at such a young age."
"Elder Lin Yan." Meng Qi raised his hands and bowed to Lin Yan. "More than half of what this junior knows about the usage of the fallen heart tree comes from your medical practice letter."
"Oh?"
"The last volume of the medical practice letter mentioned this fallen heart tree," Meng Qi said.
Originally, only the first two volumes of the medical practice letter could be seen in her ling sea.
Later, when Yun Qingyan almost went mad, Meng Qi opened the third volume of the medical practice letter and learned the Five Accumulations Meditation Scripture.
Devour Novel Network.
Not long ago, when she had stepped into the forest alone, your medical practice letter had floated silently in her ling sea. It suddenly gave off a faint light. The seventh volume, the last volume, Meng Qi could see it now.
The seventh volume of the medical practice letter.
Meng Qi hurriedly read the contents as he walked.
The contents of the seventh volume of the medical practice letter might be some ideas that Lin Yan had not fully tested in the past, so the contents were slightly scattered.
The fallen heart tree was recorded in the book.
Meng Qi had seen the name "fallen heart tree" in other books, but it was not as complete as Lin Yan's medical practice letter.
It could be used to make knockout drugs and make people hallucinate.
It also recorded that tens of thousands of years ago, puppet masters used the leaves of the fallen heart tree to refine living cultivators into puppets, becoming the common enemy of the cultivators of the three realms. They were exterminated, and their inheritance was cut off.
Meng Qi looked calmly at Lin Yan in front of him.
Lin Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly curled his lips and smiled. "So, you count as my disciple?"
Meng Qi took a deep breath.
She closed her eyes, raised her hand, and a silver medicine knife was already in her hand.
In her left hand, there was already a full handful of xuan spirit stones.
"You … want to attack me?" Lin Yan smiled sweetly. "Meng Qi, I said I wouldn't kill you. But if you seek your own death, I won't be merciful. "
"Elder Lin Yan," Meng Qi said coolly, "this junior not only knows about the fallen heart tree, but also this Blue Fall Yellow Springs Formation."
Lin Yan's gaze suddenly became extremely sharp.
"Elder Lin Yan, who do you want to revive?" Meng Qi gripped the medicine knife in his hand tightly and suddenly retreated.
"You dare!!!" Lin Yan's gaze turned cold. After seeing Meng Qi's movements clearly, her voice suddenly became sharp.
Her figure spread out, and she suddenly leapt towards Meng Qi.
She was dressed in a complicated and luxurious palace dress, the pendants on her body clinking, but her actions were fast and vicious.
Lin Yan's palace sleeve fluttered, and her white and slender fingers gripped a medicine knife. Most medical cultivators would choose medicine knives as their weapon, and she was no exception.
Meng Qi's medicine knife had already stabbed into the ground.
She had just retreated far enough, and in the blink of an eye, the medicine knife drew a crack in the ground.
Meng Qi raised her hand, and seven or eight mystic spirit stones fell into the crack she had just drawn. The spirit stones lit up, and the crack that was originally only a few inches deep suddenly spread rapidly to the surroundings, quickly rushing towards the fallen heart tree closest to Meng Qi.
"Stop!" Lin Yan softly reprimanded. Her body swayed slightly, and the medicine knife in her hand was already in front of Meng Qi's throat.
"Elder Lin Yan." Meng Qi took a deep breath, and looked into Lin Yan's eyes. His gaze was sincere and fearless. "That's useless."
"Heh." Lin Yan sneered. "It's not up to you to judge whether it's useful or not."
"Elder Lin Yan!" Meng Qi's voice also rose a little. "Don't tell me you've forgotten that puppet masters were spurned by the three realms for refining living people into puppets?!"
"So what?" Lin Yan's gaze was cold, and the medicine knife in his hand moved forward a little, leaving a faint red mark on Meng Qi's slender neck. "Meng Qi, you're also a medical cultivator. If your beloved dies in front of you, you have a glimmer of hope that you can save him. Will you save him? Or won't you? "
Meng Qi was startled, and didn't immediately answer.
"You're hesitating," Lin Yan said softly.
She paused, and continued, "Hesitating means that you're moved."
"Elder Lin Yan," Meng Qi said. "I will hesitate, and everyone will hesitate. But … "
Before she finished speaking, Lin Yan flicked his finger.
In midair in the forest, the bed made of willow branches suddenly began to move.
The willow branches quickly shuttled back and forth, and Yun Qingyan, who was lying on top of it, was lifted up. Two tough willow branches were wrapped around his neck, and his entire body was suspended in midair.
He was clearly still unconscious, but even so, he didn't wake up. His feet unconsciously kicked a few times in the air, and then his head tilted, and he stopped moving.
"What about now?" Lin Yan chuckled softly, and looked curiously at Meng Qi, whose eyebrows didn't even move. "Aren't you worried about your little lover?"
"Elder Lin Yan!" Meng Qi took a deep breath. "He's not my little lover."
"Oh?" Lin Yan calmly responded. "He's not?"
"And …" Meng Qi sighed softly. "Even if Elder Lin Yan made a move, he wouldn't be restrained so easily. I know that. "
Lin Yan stared blankly.
Meng Qi simply continued in one breath. "There are so many falling heart trees here, and the leaves of falling heart trees can make people hallucinate, so from the beginning, he wasn't real. When I stepped into the forest for the second time, Elder Lin Yan already made me inhale the knockout powder made of falling heart trees' leaves, so the person I saw was fake. "
Lin Yan seemed to be stunned again.
"Not only is there falling heart trees in this forest, there's also knockout powder, and three arrays," Meng Qi said again.
"You …" Lin Yan looked up and down at Meng Qi. "You actually saw through it? Aren't you a medical cultivator? "
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded. "That person …"
As she spoke, she looked up at the sky. Even if she knew that it was fake, Yun Qingyan couldn't be restrained like this by Lin Yan. But looking at the white-robed man hanging on the willow branch, Meng Qi still felt very uncomfortable.
"That person taught me about arrays," she continued.
"Heh —" Lin Yan sneered. "No wonder you know."
She put away the medicine knife, and her gaze fell on Meng Qi. Her expression became sullen. "Although he's fake, there are still some real people here. Take a guess …"
"Lu Qing Ran and Pei Mufeng are real," Meng Qi said without hesitation.
"You really know." Lin Yan snorted and took a step back.
"If Elder Lin Yan could really capture all the cultivators outside the forest, he wouldn't have spent so much effort to use Sister Xue and the others as bait to lure us here."
"Hmph." Lin Yan tilted his head slightly. "You're still calling me Elder?"
Meng Qi clasped her hands and bowed to the ground. "Elder, you're a great doctor in the Profound Realm. Back then, in order to save people, you used up all your cultivation, causing you to fall to the Insightful Emptiness Realm. Since then, your cultivation hasn't improved at all. You've always been someone I admire."
"Besides …" She paused. "In the boundary of the Apricot Forest Competition, I got your Five Spirit Cauldron and Medical Practice Manual. Elder will always be Elder."
"Meng Qi." Lin Yan stared at Meng Qi for a moment. "You guessed right. The main array here is the Blue Sky Underworld Array."
Meng Qi's heart skipped a beat. "It's recorded in the Medical Practice Manual that array cultivators can even revive dead cultivators with arrays and rare spiritual herbs. It's just that no one has really done it. "
"Meng Qi, you're also a medical cultivator." Lin Yan didn't continue the topic. Instead, he said, "Have you ever thought about the path of medical cultivation?"
Meng Qi stilled.
Lin Yan didn't wait for her to answer and continued to speak. "Medical cultivators should be benevolent and benevolent. In the eyes of medical cultivators, the lives of the world should not be divided into nobility and inferiority. They should not be judged based on status and whether a person should be saved. When I first became Master's disciple, he told me this. "
Meng Qi didn't speak.
"But how can there be a completely selfless person in the world? Xiuzhe cultivate the heart, but it's not possible. "Lin Yan glanced at her." After yao xiu split their consciousness, they can receive the help of their primordial spirit. After sword xiu and dharma xiu split their consciousness, a thread of consciousness will form its own branch and merge into a lifebond talisman or weapon. After that, the lifebond talisman or weapon will be connected to the mind of the xiuzhe, and their combat power will naturally increase. As to medical cultivators … … "
Lin Yan's lips curled. "After splitting their consciousness, they can be considered to have started on the great path of medical cultivation. The path of medical cultivation needs to be open and honest, benevolent and benevolent. The dark side of the heart will be forcefully cut off, but it will not disappear, and will remain in the ling sea. When you grow a step, it will also grow a step. This is the change after medical cultivators split their consciousness. Do you know that every time we undergo a tribulation after splitting our consciousness, we need to fight against the inner demon barrier? "
Meng Qi slowly nodded. "I've heard of it."
"So the tribulations of medical cultivators in the Distant Past were often more dangerous than sword xiu and dharma xiu. I heard that medical cultivators later no longer underwent tribulations like this? "
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded. "In the past tens of thousands of years, medical cultivators' legacies were almost cut off several times, and the method of splitting their consciousness to contain their devil was also lost."
"Ha … …" Lin Yan chuckled, but didn't speak. "No wonder it's hard for profound realm medical cultivators to appear in the world."
Meng Qi didn't speak.
She understood Lin Yan's words.
Tens of thousands of years ago, medical cultivators didn't lose to sword xiu and dharma xiu. One of the reasons was that, as Lin Yan said, medical cultivators at that time could split their consciousness to contain their devil.
They could pull out all the dark thoughts and ideas that went against the path of medical cultivation and seal them in the ling sea.
This way, their heart of cultivation would be purer, and their progress would be faster.
But this way, they would often have to face more terrifying and dangerous tribulations during their tribulations.
So many medical cultivators in the Distant Past died during their tribulations.
Later, this legacy was cut off, and a large number of ancient spells were lost, so medical cultivators gradually began to decline.
Their cultivation speed couldn't compare to sword xiu and dharma xiu, and their spells couldn't compare to theirs, not to mention their combat strength.
Meng Qi had heard Xue Jinwen talk about the Apricot Forest and the barrier of the Grand Competition. He vaguely guessed that what the Wind Alliance really wanted to get from the barrier of the Grand Competition might be the inheritance of splitting their consciousness to contain their devil.
"Meng Qi, you were able to pass the barrier of the Apricot Forest and obtain the inheritance because you received her approval."
"Her?" Meng Qi was taken aback.
"You should have guessed it, right?" Lin Yan curled his lips and looked at Meng Qi with a faint smile. "I'm the manifestation of the devil hidden in Lin Yan's ling sea after she split her consciousness to contain her devil. Although I'm one with her, there are still some differences. "
"You know what Lin Yan did, right?" She asked.
"Yes." Meng Qi took a deep breath and said slowly, "In order to save the people of the six cities and eight towns, senior dissipated all her cultivation and finally fell to the Insightful Emptiness Realm …"
"That's right." Lin Yan curled his lips and interrupted her, not allowing her to continue.
She stood with her hands behind her back and smiled coldly. "Then she left a good name for thousands of years and became the last profound realm doctor in the Distant Past. But … "
"Back then, there was someone who accompanied her to go against the heavens and fight against the demonic poison of those demonic cultivators, guarding and protecting her. He was seriously injured with broken bones and poisonous miasma all over his body, but he didn't let a single demonic cultivator touch the corner of her clothes."
Meng Qi was slightly stunned. She had never heard of this before.
Lin Yan was recorded in the books as the last profound realm doctor in the Distant Past, and also the youngest profound realm doctor in the Distant Past.
She was benevolent and was respected by the world.
In those books, Lin Yan was a god, perfect and flawless. No book had ever recorded that there was such a person by her side.
"That person was seriously injured and on the verge of death because of her. If she was unharmed, she could naturally be saved. But at that time, she was the only profound realm doctor in the Three Thousand Worlds. She had just exhausted her cultivation for those strangers who had nothing to do with her, and her realm fell … "
She didn't wait for Meng Qi to speak and continued, "She was benevolent and righteous, she was benevolent and selfless … She survived and was worshipped by the world. But her Daoist companion died just like that! "
Lin Yan's smile became perverse again. "I only want the person I love to live well. I only want to be with him forever and ever. Am I wrong? Meng Qi. "
"Senior isn't wrong either …" Meng Qi murmured.
She looked at the smile on Lin Yan's face and was in a trance for a moment.
She vaguely felt that she seemed to have peeped into some terrible truth.
But that thought was too vague. It flashed through her mind so quickly that she couldn't catch it at all.
"So Meng Qi …" Lin Yan reached out and gently slid his hand across Meng Qi's cheek. "Let me ask you again. If you had a way to bring such a person back to life, what would you do?"
At this moment, the man in white slowly descended from the sky above the forest and stood silently on the treetops.
He was tall and looked quite tall, but when he landed, not a single leaf swayed, nor did he make the slightest sound.
