The villain is right beside me

After returning to his cave, Mu Qing lay on the bed and slept soundly for a whole day and night. The tense emotions he had felt on the air battlefield disappeared in an instant.

After waking up, he went to Yunxi's cave. He felt relieved when he heard that everyone was safe and sound inside.

After the funeral, Mu Qing was filled with mixed feelings. The experience in the airspace battlefield seemed like a dream. Especially the monks who sacrificed their lives in the Nine Heavens Continent for the pursuit of the truth, it was even more touching.

This inadvertently made him think, could the world of immortal cultivation where he was located also be a false world created by some powerful being?

Mu Qing suddenly woke up and quickly denied his thoughts. How could this be possible? This idea was too weird.

“Why do I always feel like I’m missing something?”

Mu Qing thought about it, from the time he entered the airspace battlefield, he and the big yellow bird found the divine fruit, subdued the evil spirit, broke into the secret realm, and learned the truth...

"Strange..." Mu Qing seemed to have discovered a suspicious point: "If the female corpse is the disciple of Jiufeng Tianzun, then how did Guxing Tianzun's servant know her? After they met, the servant's shock is not surprising. What's strange is that there are loopholes in what he said!"

“If these stone walls belong to Jiufeng Tianzun, why do they appear in the world seen by this servant? And how did the flying sword of the female corpse fall into the world seen by him? Senior Brother Si is the coffin obtained after entering the secret realm. In other words, Jiufeng Tianzun’s disciple has always been by my side…” Mu Qing called Lao Wang and asked him if he had any other information after he devoured the servant’s spiritual baby?

Lao Wang gave him a memory to read for himself.

What Mu Qing saw in the few remaining memories in the spiritual baby shocked him extremely.

In fact, the relationship between Guxing Tianzun and Jiufeng Tianzun was not as bad as he said. Jiufeng Tianzun had a disciple and a daughter. His daughter was originally going to be betrothed to her childhood sweetheart, Guxing Tianzun's son.

But from this memory perspective, there is something very strange. Mu Qing can see that compared to this childhood sweetheart, this gaze has always been looking at Jiufeng Tianzun’s disciple... the face of the female corpse.

He even saw, from the perspective of this memory, entering the bridal chamber, and the woman inside was the daughter of Jiufeng Tianzun!

"Could it be! This spiritual baby is actually the son of Gu Xing Tianzun? Why does he say that he is..." Mu Qing continued to look and finally found the blind spot.

Somehow, this memory came back to me. Looking at my own palms, it seemed a little unbelievable. When I looked in the mirror, I found that the person in the mirror was not myself at all!

"His soul took over the body of a servant, so who became the Son of Heaven for him? Could it be..."

He saw with his own eyes that his body was taken away by someone else, he saw his childhood sweetheart lying in bed with someone else, and he saw him flirting with the person he loved unscrupulously!

Mu Qing could feel the anger in this memory, his resentment, humiliation, and hatred...

Then, some great catastrophe came, his wife died on the battlefield, and the woman he loved was sealed forever.

"This person originally didn't like his childhood sweetheart. He liked another person, a long-sealed disciple. But why did he exchange bodies with another person?" Mu Qing thought about it and suddenly thought of a possibility.

"The second sea of ​​consciousness! Someone has occupied his second sea of ​​consciousness, controlled his body, and forced out his soul. The truth is... another soul was born from the second sea of ​​consciousness!"

"Perhaps, the main deity likes the female disciple, while the second soul likes his childhood sweetheart. Since he couldn't have both, the second soul simply forced me to leave... This second soul is a traitor!"

"So, he cheated on himself! He forced himself to become a scumbag..." Mu Qing suddenly didn't dare to practice this technique anymore. What if his second soul betrayed him one day?

"However, why does this childhood sweetheart in his memory look so familiar to me?" Mu Qing looked at it carefully again. Since there was little sight of the childhood sweetheart in this memory, most of what he saw was one-sided.

How obsessed is this man with her?

One is a childhood sweetheart, and the other is a beautiful junior sister who came from nowhere...

As expected, did Qingmei lose to Tianjiang?

Mu Qing complained in his heart. At this moment, he heard a childish voice. It was Shahun. She pointed at her stomach as if to say that she was hungry.

"Oh, you are becoming more and more difficult to support. I will quickly refine a body for you..." Mu Qing looked up and was suddenly startled. He found that Sha Hun's face looked somewhat similar to Qingmei in his memory.

impossible……

When Mu Qing guessed the truth, Si Minghai looked at the female corpse in the coffin. The skin of the female corpse was snow-white, but there was a hint of red. If he said that she was still alive, many people would probably believe it.

"So such a tragedy happened to you." Si Minghai also guessed everything, and it was almost the same as what Mu Qing thought. He felt puzzled when the female corpse confronted the man. It turned out that what she did was revenge on a shameless scumbag.

That’s so strange, where is the real man?

······

In the shattered airspace battlefield, a huge body was sitting cross-legged in meditation. At this moment, a black illusory figure emerged from his sea of ​​consciousness.

The giant's eyes opened and his body shrank to the size of a normal human, but the evil aura emanating from him made the surrounding space freeze.

"I can't sense it anymore. It seems that the clone is indeed dead. Humph, he got away with it!" The big man's eyes flashed coldly, and then the shadow beside him spoke.

"He is you and you are him, but you can't have the best of both worlds. You were so stupid back then that you were tricked by two women." This phantom looked exactly like him, but there was an evil aura around him.

The big man glared at him fiercely and looked at the dilapidated surroundings: "We can't stay here for long."

"Don't you want revenge?" said the shadow.

"Time flies, and the world changes. Even my father couldn't survive that catastrophe. Maybe they are all gone now."

"not necessarily."

The big man was startled, and a ball of memory light separated from the phantom and said: "My people seem to have seen a strange soul in their memories. Take a closer look and see if it looks similar."

The big man took a closer look and remembered that a little girl in white had chased and killed countless demons and even devoured many monks.

"She's still alive, she's actually still alive!" The big man's face flushed, his expression was excited and shocked, but he looked extremely ferocious.

"Where is she!" The big man continued to look through his memories, and after seeing a human monk who could scare her away, a ferocious smile appeared on his face.

"Hahahaha! God will not abandon me!"

Shadow: "So, where are you going to find her?"

"..."

Not long after, Mu Qing followed the headmaster to the sect's ancestral land, which was a forbidden area within the sect, hidden deepest at the bottom of the mountain, with only one passage leading into it.

"The ancestral land is in front of us. Today, the ancestor has opened it specially for you. Go in."

Mu Qing bowed to the head master and then stepped into the passage. Only by receiving the complete secret inheritance in it could he explore the true inheritance of Piaomiao Sect.

Inside the passage, there are paths leading to four gates. Mu Qing heard from the headmaster that behind each of these gates is a unique secret skill.

He needed to show off the skills of Piaomiao Sect that he practiced here.

Mu Qing simply activated the ancient scriptures directly. He had practiced all the four meridian techniques. Suddenly, at this moment, the four holes all burst out with brilliant light.

The lights were blinding, and there was an echoing roar. Lights burst forth from the four cave entrances, instantly illuminating the cavern with incredible brightness.

This scene made Mu Qing stunned. Could it be that he could comprehend all four secret techniques?

"Okay, let's take a look at them one by one." Mu Qing entered the first cave. There was nothing else inside, only a stone sword stuck in the ground.

Mu Qing walked over, and the moment his eyes fell on the stone sword, he was immediately attracted by the four large words on it.

"Wan Zang Sword Canon!"

Mu Qing listened to Si Minghai's explanation of the Wanzang Sword Classic and how difficult it was to practice it, so he simply reached out his hand, and lines of scriptures flowed from the palm of his hand into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Mu Qing quietly comprehended the sword manual, which not only contained the mantras for cultivation, but even the light and shadow of cultivation for creating the secret method were recorded clearly.

“So this is the meaning of inheritance.” After accepting the first secret method, Mu Qing turned and entered the second cave, where was a stone book that recorded the Ten Thousand Weapons Art.

The secret of the Ten Thousand Weapons Art is to transform all things into weapons. Every blade of grass, every tree, every flower and every leaf can be a weapon.

"Warfare is the art of deception. The sun, moon, stars, the seasons, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, the heavens, the earth, the mountains and rivers, all are put to good use..."

A stone tripod in the third cave records the inheritance of the Wanyao Method.

Inside the fourth cave is a terrifying and ferocious stone monster, which is the inheritor of the Ten Thousand Demon Transformations.

Any one of these secret techniques was extremely earth-shattering, and Mu Qing learned them all.

"It is said that the sect's real number one secret technique is the Wan Dao Technique. Why is there no inheritance here? Is it really the same as I guessed?" Mu Qing sat here, and the four secret techniques were combined with the Dao patterns, evolving one by one in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Whether it is the sword manual or the military manual, they all mention the same thing - everything!

The secret method is born with all things in the world, the sun, the moon, the mountains and rivers, the plants and trees, the day and night, the cold and heat, the four seasons... There are too many things, there are too many things in the world...

At this time, blood oozed from the corners of Mu Qing's mouth and eyes.

It is too difficult to comprehend a single secret technique alone, and when all these secret techniques are put together, there are too many things that can evolve into, and my spiritual consciousness is really unable to handle it.

"No, there should be something I can learn from..." Mu Qing looked at the Dao pattern again. Lao Wang said that the Dao pattern was the evolution of the Great Dao. The Dao pattern was ever-changing and also symbolized everything.

But, what if we use the way of spiritual patterns to comprehend the secret technique?

The complexity and simplification of spiritual patterns is like discarding unnecessary and repetitive things to make them streamlined.

The first chapter of the Sword Canon is the Eight Phases. The Eight Phases contain the laws of heaven and earth, and the sword intent is to be comprehended from them... But what is the connection between the Eight Phases and medicine, military tactics, and demon transformation?

Medicine has five flavors, five properties and five poisons, corresponding to gold, wood, water, fire and earth...

The eight phases of earth, wind, thunder, water, fire, mountain and marsh include water and fire... Mountain and marsh are also a kind of earth. Earth produces gold, and gold is the yin in the yang, a product of heaven and earth.

What about monsters? The magical part of the secret method is that it can transform into a monster and display the monster's magical powers. Humans are the leaders of all spirits, with five elements in their bodies. The changes of the five elements and the human body can transform them into birds, beasts, grass, stones, and monsters. The essence of the transformation of all monsters lies in the word "change". Change is a verb, and the five elements are constantly changing.

The art of war is to attack the enemy when he is unprepared, take him by surprise, use fire and flood, use grass and trees as cover, and hide in dangerous mountains... Only by making good use of all conditions can you win every battle.

The five elements are the basis of all things, but at the same time, there are too many things that can be described and summarized by them.

What else do the five elements have in common?

Fire is Yang, the Yang among the Yang of Heaven and Earth; Wood is grown from water and is Yin, it is a growing thing, the Yang among the Yin; Water is Yin, the Yin among the Yin; Metal is forged from fire and is Yang, it is a still thing, the Yin among the Yang; Earth is the extreme Yin among the Yin, it balances Yin and Yang.

Mu Qing finally simplified it to the changes of yin and yang, but is yin and yang really the end?

One yin and one yang are called Tao. Heaven and earth give birth to one primordial qi. The clear primordial qi rises and turns into heaven, while the turbid qi descends and turns into earth. This shows: One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things!

"There is no secret method. All the ways return to one, and that is the magic of all ways!"
