Xuanxia

Chapter 548 Split
"Who would have thought that the great Jiang Alliance Leader, Jiang Baichuan, would actually be such a person..."

In the small courtyard, Qiu Chan shook her head and sighed, waved tiredly to everyone, and went into her room.

The moonlight was fading and the night was getting darker. They were on their way back to Beijing when the sky was already beginning to brighten.

Tang Jiao's face looked a little bad. After all, regarding her father's case, Ning Baimei had said in person that "there is no rush to pursue the case for the time being", which also meant that it would be difficult to advance the case in a short period of time.

Fortunately, Fu Qingzhou comforted her a lot along the way, and she was temporarily relieved.

Everyone in the group was exhausted and soon went back to their rooms. Fu Qingzhou also returned to his room and threw himself on the bed.

However, he was not sleepy at all.

All that filled his mind were what Ning Baimei had said before.

"Did the incident with Jiang Baichuan remind you of something?"

When Fu Qingzhou first heard this, he didn't understand, but Ning Baimei didn't say much. He quickly led Li Jingzhe and Ning Wuwang to arrange the rest of the matters.

It was not until he returned that he gradually reacted.

Jiang Baichuan...is actually very similar to me.

Over the past few decades, he has split into two different identities, one light and one dark, one good and one evil, but they eventually merged into one turbid soul.

And what about yourself?

I have my own two methods: Qi Ran Jue and Yi Ran Jue.

The Qi Ran Jue was forcefully infused by Long Dabei. It would silently change himself and turn him into a monster.

The Yiran Jue exists to balance the Qiran Jue. With it, one can at least maintain one's self and not go astray.

But is this the solution?

Fu Qingzhou knew that it wasn’t the case.

In that dream under the Green Grass Marsh, he seemed to have integrated the two techniques, but in fact, he knew very well that Qi Ran Jue had not truly calmed down.

When they were in Sangmen Village, Qi Ran Jue almost overwhelmed Yi Ran Jue again, causing his own mind to fall into confusion.

The two techniques have not been truly integrated, which means that the Qi Ran Jue will always be a huge bomb buried in his body.

In the past, Fu Qingzhou didn't want to think too much about this issue.

On the one hand, he had hardly had any rest along the way, always facing various enemies and crises, and had no time to think about these things.

On the other hand, the two skills he possesses can always maintain a balance. In this case, he will not think about it for the time being.

But now, he had to think about it.

If I continue like this, will there come a day when I become like Jiang Baichuan, affected by the two techniques and suffering from serious mental problems?
“I can’t escape anymore.”

Fu Qingzhou sat up from the bed and said to himself, "Jiang Baichuan keeps avoiding and ignoring it, and it will eventually get worse and worse, and he will go down a path of no return..."

"My situation is more dangerous than his. If I continue like this, and one day I suddenly feel that it is reasonable to kill everyone around me, it will be too late."

Thinking of this, although he was extremely tired, Fu Qingzhou still forced himself to close his eyes and activated the two skills in his body.

His cultivation path at this time was completely different from that of others.

For a normal warrior, the sixth state opens the Dantian, the seventh state opens the heart acupoint, the eighth state activates the internal organs, and the ninth state connects the meridians and acupoints throughout the body.

But Fu Qingzhou? He had been on a "wrong path" since the sixth realm. He did not condense his true essence in Dantian, but used his bones and muscles as Dantian. Now that he had broken through the seventh realm, he directly poured his true essence into his heart.

As a result, coupled with the fact that his meridians are much wider than those of ordinary people, the strength of his true energy is many times stronger than that of others, even dozens of times or even tens of times!
At this moment, when he concentrated on practicing his skills, he could clearly feel the two powers intertwining and blending, flowing through his muscles, bones, and meridians. They passed through his heart and then merged into every corner of his body.

In the past, Fu Qingzhou did not pay special attention to their impact on his spirit.

But at this moment, he put all his mind into it and finally noticed something strange. When these two true energies passed through his heart, every time his heart beat, his mood would be touched a little.

The touch was so light, almost non-existent, and almost unnoticeable.

But...it exists after all.

What does this touch feel like?

Just like when you are alone and quiet, there is a small note playing in the distance. It could be the light plucking of a guitar string, a little tune hummed by a passerby, or the chirping of cicadas and birds in the summer woods.

When this note is played, your heartstrings will inevitably be gently plucked, but if there is nothing special, that's it.

At this moment, Fu Qingzhou could vaguely sense this touch.

However, the effects caused by these two techniques exist at the same time.

The Qi Ran Jue brought a trace of compassion and a trace of hostility into his spirit, while the Yi Ran Jue made him feel free and easy. The two just rose and fell, melted into each other, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“It turns out that they have been affecting me.”

Fu Qingzhou opened his eyes: "Although this influence is very small and light, but in the long run, I will definitely be subtly influenced and changed."

A sense of fear rose in his heart.

He would not say "Fortunately, I met Jiang Baichuan, who had problems with self-awareness", but it was indeed the incident with Jiang Baichuan and Ning Baimei's guidance that made him truly realize the problems he was facing.

“It has to be resolved.”

Fu Qingzhou said secretly.

But the next moment, he was at a loss: "But...how to solve it?"

Dissolve the Qi Ran Jue? Like Qing Songzi said, it will dissipate on its own every once in a while?
No... I have so many things to do and so many problems to deal with right now. If I lose my energy, how can I face those enemies and protect the people around me?

After thinking hard without any results, he subconsciously wanted to touch the Xuanxing Divine Iron in his arms.

But when he touched it, he realized that the Xuanxing Divine Iron had disappeared.

"Oh my god! That's right! The sacred iron is gone!"

Fu Qingzhou's pupils widened.

The inexplicable voice and the inexplicable person before took away his magic iron without anyone noticing!

The situation was too urgent at the time and he had no time to think about it. Only now did he realize it and start to think about it!

Who is this? Who stole my stuff?

Could it be Ning Baimei? He should have this ability, right?
But it's unlikely... Recalling the voice and tone of the person who spoke in my ear at that time, it didn't sound like Ning...

"Wait, that voice, why does it sound familiar?"

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head hard, but he couldn't remember where he had heard that voice.

Doubts came one after another, all of which he couldn't figure out.

"Qi Ranjue's problem must be resolved."

After a long while, he murmured to himself, "But it's not appropriate for me to do it on my own right now... I should go find Ning Baimei when I have a chance. Since he can remind me, he should have a solution? Or, at least he can show me a way?"

Thinking of this, he finally couldn't resist the fatigue that surged up from deep in his mind, and fell on the bed with a thump.

Soon, bursts of snoring began to sound...
