"The righteous way of cultivating immortals emphasizes the unity of nature and man, and balance and self-consistency," said the punishment elder Mu Jianxue. "Even for people like Su Lingshuiqiu who cultivate very fast, their realm and state of mind are also improved synchronously."
"But you," Ling Hua concluded, "have experienced an unreasonable 'surge' in your realm, fundamentally disrupting the balance!"
"But what does this have to do with you appearing in my bed..."
Tang Xin complained.
"You were the one who appeared on my bed," Ling Hua retorted, "Do you know that if it weren't for me, your appearance now would not just be a sign of being possessed, but a complete obsession!"
"Who are you kidding?" The eldest sister snorted, "You just covet my body. I almost let you eat me. No, I must report it to the head of the sect..."
"Tang Xin," Xuan Miao's tone became more serious, "Ling Hua was not kidding. If she hadn't relied on the Ten Thousand Swords Spirit Body to help you temporarily suppress your inner demon, it might have developed to a point where it was difficult to deal with!"
"Alright, alright," Tang Xin stood up from the bed, stretched her body, and said with a smile, "I know you guys are just joking to relieve my stress. Don't worry, although the work is hard, I don't feel that tired. I'm really sorry, can you give me a raise?"
She walked towards the door and smiled at the elders.
"The frontline is still busy, I have to deliver the materials quickly. By the way, have you heard from Duan Xun and the others? How is Shui Qiu? Are Su Ling, Xu Lexian and the others still in the war zone? Shouldn't they arrange a shift change?"
Snapped!
Xuanmiao snapped her fingers, and a layer of light film covered the cabin. No matter how hard the senior sister tried, she couldn't open the door.
"What are you doing?"
Tang Xin frowned and looked at her.
"No one is kidding you," the Great Elder said solemnly, "Until you resolve your inner demon problem, you are temporarily prohibited from participating in frontline affairs."
"How funny," Tang Xin said loudly, "I am the eldest senior sister of Xuanling Sect who has gone through the stage of entering the mortal world and refining my mind. How could I have a demon in my heart? You must be mistaken!"
As she spoke, she took a step forward, her aura rising steadily.
"Tang Xin," Mu Jianxue raised her arm, cold air condensed in her palm, "If you make any more moves, we will have to take action..."
"you……"
The eldest sister wanted to explain, but she realized something was wrong.
She looked down and saw that her body was covered with a layer of faint black light that she could not get rid of or remove.
"You are too confident," Ling Hua said, "Refining the mind in the mortal world is not omnipotent. The inner demon can appear at any stage of a cultivator, especially... when one is extremely thirsty for power."
Chapter 814: Senior Sister, 500 Spiritual Stones per Time
Seeing the black light on his body, Tang Xin's mood seemed to calm down suddenly.
She sat down on the bed and said dejectedly.
"I can actually go astray and develop a demon in my heart..."
This is really unexpected.
The demon in the heart and the demon in the path of evil are not exactly the same thing.
Demonic monks will also have inner demons, but some will choose to deal with them while others will just ignore them.
The eldest senior sister’s cultivation up to now has been smooth sailing, if not smooth sailing, and she has not encountered any major setbacks.
If he thought about it carefully, since he came into contact with the Colorful Spirit Clan, he first absorbed a hundred times more spiritual energy, then soaked in the River of New Life in the Yuanling Clan. In just a few months, the Fairy Light Clan improved his cultivation by several levels, and in the Fairy Duck Clan, he swallowed a huge amount of spiritual fruits to strengthen his body.
This speed of improvement in strength level seems too exaggerated even for Su Ling and others.
The eldest sister's talent for righteous cultivation was only at the level of a supporting role. Such reckless improvement would lay the seeds for her to go astray and become possessed.
"I'm sorry, Great Elder, Punishment Elder," Tang Xin lowered his head and whispered to the two of them, "I was rude just now..."
"And me?"
Ling Hua crossed her arms and said with a smug look on her face.
"Forget about it, but I will still report you when I see the Sect Leader..."
Seeing that Tang Xin's behavior and speech had returned to normal, Xuanmiao also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry too much," the Great Elder said with a smile, "We are lucky. We discovered the inner demon just when it appeared. I believe that there should be no major deviations in your cultivation path. This problem can be gradually resolved perfectly."
“How long does it usually take?”
Tang Xin asked.
"Well... In my opinion, with your talent, ten years, no, seven or eight years should be enough, right?"
Elder Xuanmiao speculated.
"what?!"
Hearing this number, Tang Xin jumped up and said excitedly.
"Seven or eight years? Even seven or eight months won't do! You don't know, the Blood Lord Palace is making small moves again! I must return to the front line as soon as possible, otherwise this time it will definitely lead to a disaster!"
"Mysterious Ice Technique!"
Elder Mu Jianxue didn't say anything, just raised his hand and threw a bunch of ice chips over, freezing Tang Xin's whole body.
The Punishment Elder rushed back from the front line after receiving the request from the Great Elder Xuanmiao.
Tang Xin is no longer the cute little girl in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stage. Now that she is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage, she has the ability to resist even when facing a Soul-Slaying cultivator.
Although Ling Hua and Xuan Miao can suppress her with their strength, if they want to avoid hurting her at all, they still need the help of more professional punishment elders.
After a while, Elder Mu Jianxue withdrew his magic spell and allowed Tang Xin to escape from the ice.
"I'm sorry," Tang Xin lowered her head again and whispered, "My inner demon has struck again..."
This was ironclad evidence. A normal senior sister would not make such stupid moves repeatedly.
"We have arranged for someone to handle the materials, and we are also looking for the information you want," Elder Xuanmiao came over, gently stroked Tang Xin's long hair, and said slowly, "You should focus on yourself now, otherwise many people will worry."
"Great Elder..."
Tang Xin felt a lump in her throat and threw herself into Elder Xuanmiao's arms.
This is what an elder is! I don’t know why the guy at the back, who is wearing revealing clothes and has no manners, can stand with them…
"Hey, you just cursed me in your heart, didn't you? I saved you, is this how you repay me..."
Ling Hua pouted in dissatisfaction, not showing any demeanor of an elder.
"I understand. I will never act rashly until I am back to normal!"
The eldest sister said solemnly.
"But... seven or eight years is really too long. Is there a quicker solution?"
The three elders gave her a blank look.
It turns out that this guy didn't realize that the key to the problem lies in "anxiety"?
"The inner demon is in the heart, and it is difficult to resolve it with external forces," Elder Xuanmiao sighed, "Even if you find a strong person who can transcend the tribulation, there may not be a solution."
"And if you're not careful," Mu Jianxue said, "it could easily cause permanent harm."
The inner demon can be said to be one of the "problems" that cultivators fear the most. It is not limited by time, realm, or situation, and is often extremely troublesome to solve.
"I have a plan."
Ling Hua stood up and said.
It was her Ten Thousand Swords Spirit Body that pulled the senior sister back at the critical moment, which shows that this person is quite capable in some aspects.
"You all know that the Ten Thousand Sword Spirits have the ability to dispel evil spirits, right? Inner demons are, after all, a kind of evil spirit, but they are more ethereal and intangible, making them more difficult to deal with. At times like this, a stronger 'sword' is needed to pierce through them!"
The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and she began to gesture with her hands and feet.
"To put it simply, as long as Tang Xin is willing to let go of her body and mind and let me take full control, I will be able to penetrate her 'evil spirit' so hard that her inner demon will naturally disappear. Hehe, don't worry, the process will not only be painless, but also very comfortable..."
Several people looked at her expressionlessly.
"Great Elder, I am very calm now," Tang Xin said with a smile, "Excuse me, can I kick her?"
"Well," Xuan Miao also smiled, "I'll go with you!"
"What? I'm serious! I'm not kidding! That's the effect it's supposed to have!"
There's no point taking your anger out on the Seventh Elder.
The matter of the inner demon was too troublesome and it made several elders feel troubled.
However, Tang Xin is the most outstanding disciple of Xuanling Sect, and he must solve this problem even if it takes all the strength of the sect.
The Great Elder couldn't do anything, so he let the Sect Master find a solution.
Tang Xin was temporarily locked in the house to prevent her from being possessed by evil spirits and secretly escaping. Xuan Miao went to contact the sect leader to see if she had any suggestions.
"Alas, anger is harmful to the body..."
Tang Xin lay on the bed, muttering to herself listlessly.
Whenever she thought about everyone still working hard on the front lines, she couldn't help but feel anxious. What she feared most was that she could only watch but not take any action.
"Tang Xin," the Seventh Elder touched her from behind and said in a seductive tone, "Life is short, enjoy it while you can. If you don't understand the pleasure of the flesh, you will lose a lot..."
"Five hundred spirit stones once."
Tang Xin said without turning his head, raising one hand.
"…First time discount, five dollars?"
Fortunately, the Seventh Elder can vent her anger, and the eldest sister’s inner impatience can be relieved a little.
But this is not a long-term solution.
If she doesn't resolve her inner demons, she won't be able to go to the front line. If she can't go to the front line, her inner demons will become more serious. It's a vicious cycle.
After a long time, when Tang Xin and Ling Hua had bargained down to one hundred spirit stones, the great elder Xuanmiao brought back the headmaster's advice.
"The headmaster has accepted another favor this time," she said, "Take Tang Xin to Lily Valley for treatment!"
Chapter 815: Everyone the Sect Leader knows is...
Yu Lingzi, the leader of the Xuanling Sect, is an absolute celebrity among the "high-level" people in the Qingzhou cultivation world.
In the world of cultivation, strength is respected. Yu Lingzi's realm at the peak of Hedao makes her a top-notch master no matter where she is. Moreover, her combat power is extremely strong, and ordinary people at the peak of Hedao may not be her opponent.
