Chapter 168 Awakening
Qi Xuansu was under house arrest, the first time he has since ascended to the high position, and he hopes it is the last time.
I don’t know the change of the sun and the moon here, and the Earth Master has granted his cultivation. He cannot calculate the time by operating the cycle of heaven, and even cannot count the heartbeat because it is the "Heart of the Stone of Eternal Life".
Qi Xuansu can only study the mystery of "Heart of the Eternal Stone" during this period, thinking about how the Earth Master will invade himself.
Even if Wu Niang may bring a ray of variables to Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu must support it until Wu Niang returns. If Qi Xuansu has become part of the Earth Master when Wu Niang comes back, then let alone Wu Niang, even if Xuan Sheng comes to the world, he may not be able to restore the world.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu not only cannot compromise with the Earth Master, but also must resolutely resist the Earth Master.
The key is how to resist the Earth Master. Just like doing things in the Taoist sect, you must pay attention to methods and methods.
At this moment, Qi Xuansu was still willing to believe Qi Niang. According to time calculations, when he was talking to Qi Niang, the Earth Master had completed the palace transformation, so the meaning of this call was a bit extraordinary. Maybe Qi Niang had hidden mystery in it.
Qi Xuansu carefully recalled every detail of his conversation with Qi Niang and did not miss one.
Qi Niang mainly mentioned the history of the Yao family. From the first generation of the Yao family to the third generation of the Yao family, there is a crucial figure among them, Yao Hengbo, namely Shi Hengbo.
Qi Xuansu naturally did not forget that his "Heart of Eternal Stone" contains the remnant soul left by Shi Hengbo back then. Strictly speaking, Shi Hengbo is the first master of "Heart of Eternal Stone".
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but wonder if it was the reason for this residual soul. This was actually a back door left by Yao Zu and Shi Hengbo.
Although Qi Xuansu cannot operate the Zhoutian and cannot use cultivation, the basic functions of the "Heart of the Eternal Stone" are still retained, such as maintaining Qi Xuansu's body normal operation, so Qi Xuansu found that he could actually sink his consciousness into the "Heart of the Eternal Stone".
Maybe it’s not that the Earth Master does not want to close completely, but that it cannot be closed. Even if it can be closed, if Qi Xuansu is killed suddenly, then the Earth Master’s hard work will be in vain.
Qi Xuansu returned to Lingshan in his dream again.
When Qi Xuansu climbed to the top of Lingshan Mountain, there was no more fragment of the Eleven Witches, only Shi Hengbo and the totem behind her.
Qi Xuansu said straight to the point: "Senior Master, is it you?"
Shi Hengbo whispered softly: "I'm sorry, I remembered some things just now, and I didn't mean to lie to you."
Qi Xuansu was silent.
Listening to the meaning of Shi Hengbo's words, the memory she lost in the body before was true, and the memory recovery was also true at this time. This shows that Shi Hengbo's recovery of memory has a great relationship with the earth master's beginning to erode Qi Xuansu.
"I'm very happy to be able to meet you and be with you for a long time." Shi Hengbo said in a sighing tone, "It's a pity that I'm going to say goodbye to you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Hengbo began to change, and her body became bigger and bigger, gradually changing from the size of a normal woman to the size of a big witch. Her originally soft face faintly showed a sense of awe that made people dare not look at her.
Immediately afterwards, countless blood lights surged out of Shi Hengbo's body and wrapped her whole body. Shi Hengbo raised his head and sighed with an ancient breath.
The sigh seemed to be emotion, resentment, helplessness, and also seemed to have a faint regret.
"Finally." The voice was no longer the same as Shi Hengbo's previous voice, "I remembered my mission."
Qi Xuansu knew that the remnant soul of Shi Hengbo who had been silently watching him might not be able to come back, so he couldn't help but say, "Maybe I should call you Yao Hengbo?"
Because the blood light gushing out from Shi Hengbo's body was Wu Xian's power, symbolizing Wu Xian's bloodline, perfectly corresponded to what Qi Niang said about the history of the Yao family.
At the same time, Qi Xuansu probably understood what Wu Niang said in the Return to Zhen Palace: Perhaps all his actions were under the gaze of the local master.
When Wu Niang said this, she pointed at Qi Xuansu's heart with her fingers. Now it seems that this is not a mess, but is targeted and has a point of view.
It turned out to be such a gaze method. Shi Hengbo has been attached to Qi Xuansu's body. She could see everything Qi Xuansu saw, everything Qi Xuansu heard, and she could hear it.
All the secrets can't be hidden. Everything from the beginning to the end is under the eyes of Shi Hengbo.
Shi Hengbo's eyes finally fell on Qi Xuansu: "Yes."
Qi Xuansu said: "Yao Zu left the residual soul in Yao Zu's palace. The residual soul of the second-generation leader Yao Hengbo was stored in the "Heart of the Eternal Stone". I wonder if Yao Yueyan had any residual soul left?"
Shi Hengbo asked back: "Don't you think you asked the wrong person? You always ask future generations about people and affairs. How can you ask future generations about people and affairs?"
Qi Xuansu said again: "There is another thing that I have not figured out yet. According to the records of the Taoist sect, as a newborn individual independent of Wu Xian, Yao Xianglian should have been very young at that time. Not only was he younger than Xuan Sheng, but he was even younger than her disciple Shi Hengbo. His life was only a hundred years. So what is the significance of you, the second-generation member of the Yao family?"
Shi Hengbo said: "This question can be answered, because I am very qualified and I have no hope of becoming an immortal. I rely on Yao Zu's help without cost. While relying on Yao Zu's creation to suppress the three corpses in my body, I continued to seek immortality with the means of the outer Dan Sect. Finally, at the age of 120, I barely became an immortal, hid in the cave heaven, survived the transformation, and remotely controlled the Yao family and Quanzhen Dao in the cave heaven for more than ten years before choosing to ascension. In short, after Yao Zu ascended, I stayed in the human world for a long time, and waited until the situation stabilized before leaving completely."
Shi Hengbo paused: "Of course, these are all my experiences, not mine."
Qi Xuansu said: "But you still have these memories, which means that your memories with the deity have always been synchronized, but this part of the unnecessary memories have been sealed."
Shi Hengbo did not deny it: "It can be said that."
Qi Xuansu continued: "Since your memories can be synchronized and even sealed your memories, it means that there is a certain connection between you, and you can influence and even manipulate you through this connection. In the past, this person was Yao Hengbo, so the person who unsealed the seal for you now should be the Earth Master Yao Ling. In other words, Earth Master inherited a certain characteristic from Yao Hengbo, and could connect with you through this characteristic, and then use you as a medium to erode and manipulate me."
Shi Hengbo was silent for a moment: "It's true, but the current Earth Master Yao Ling is not my realm after all, so she can't directly manipulate me. It is still necessary to wake up my memory by contacting you."
Qi Xuansu immediately thought of the "Immortal caress me" after the Earth Master defeated him. It seems that it was from that time that the Earth Master had started the erosion process, which is completely different from the "Taofei Demon". What the Earth Master wants is to change the cage and replace the bird, a perfect container that carries itself, not a puppet.
In fact, Qi Xuansu can sink his consciousness into the "Heart of the Eternal Stone", which is a natural protection, and it is difficult for the "Taofei Demon" to act on him.
Qi Xuansu said, "That is why the Earth Master wanted to trick me into Zixiao Palace, instead of giving me a command, I came to Zixiao Palace by myself. Of course, even if I don't come to Zixiao Palace, the Earth Master went to Dongposa Prefecture to find me, and I can't escape this disaster because I have the intention to make a mistake."
Shi Hengbo said: "What is the Earth Master planning now? I have no intention of delving into it. I just need to complete my mission. If you are willing to cooperate, you will save a lot of effort and there will be no pain, just like a big dream."
Qi Xuansu said slowly: "It seems that what I have to do now is to fight against seniors and delay this process."
Shi Hengbo said lightly: "Just give it a try."
