After hearing Ling Yi's words, Zhao Wenwen seemed to be stunned for a moment and asked blankly, "What did you say?"
I told you I had a way to cure your illness.
"I'm not sick!" Zhao Wenwen stood up somewhat flustered and turned to walk towards the door.
"The reason you have Nightmare every day, besides what happened back then, is mainly because you were framed."
Hearing Ling Yi's words, Zhao Wenwen withdrew her hand from the doorknob and asked, "You know about what happened back then?"
"I know, but don't ask how I know. It's a secret."
Ling Yi always used this excuse to evade questions he couldn't explain, the key point being that he genuinely couldn't explain them.
"Isn't he just a cheater?"
"A... a cheater?" Ling Yi was utterly astonished. No, could it be that his cheating had been discovered?
"Don't be surprised, you're not the only one using cheats."
"What's the meaning?"
"It means exactly what it says. Besides the normal cultivators, there is a special group of beings in this world."
"They are cheaters. Although their numbers are small, less than ten thousand in the entire world, it's no secret to many people that they are cheaters."
Ling Yi was dumbfounded. Was he not the only one in this world with cheat codes?
"The cheater you're referring to is..."
"Just like the Protagonist in novels, they all have different cheat codes."
"For example?" Ling Yi asked.
"For example, you get stronger when you sleep, you get stronger when you kill monsters, there are all kinds of types."
"So I'm not surprised that you know about me. I'm just curious, what kind of cheat code did you use?"
" Future Precognition? Or Memory Reading? Neither seems quite right."
"Ahem, let's talk about the more important thing: you were framed."
Even knowing that there are cheaters in this world, and quite a few at that, Ling Yi still didn't want anyone to know the details of his cheat ability.
This is our trump card!
"What do you mean by me being framed?" Knowing that Ling Yi didn't want to talk about the cheat, Zhao Wenwen didn't press further.
Before we get to that, I hope you can promise me one thing: don't tell anyone about this, including your parents.
"Why?"
"Because I don't trust anyone!" Ling Yi said truthfully.
"Then you believe me?"
Does Ling Yi trust Zhao Wenwen? Of course not. How could he open his heart to her after knowing her for only a few days?
It's just that Ling Yi had ways to prevent Zhao Wenwen from saying it.
Among the six seals of the Soul Suppression Art, there is a Soul Control Seal, which can control the soul of others without them realizing it.
It is an extremely domineering and evil technique.
That Chan Master Jindu must have harmed countless people with this magic seal; he must have become a great evil long ago.
If I get the chance later, I'll kill this monk and use the Soul Devourer Seal to collect his soul.
However, since Zhao Wenwen had asked, Ling Yi could only nod. He couldn't very well tell her, "I'm going to control your soul, can I?"
"I can only bet that you are trustworthy!" Ling Yi said slowly.
"Otherwise, I'll be in trouble."
"Don't worry, if what you said is true, I will never tell anyone," Zhao Wenwen said earnestly.
Ling Yi rolled his eyes; the woman's words had already left him Jade Emperor.
In other words, she didn't completely trust herself either.
What I did before was just impulsiveness; once the emotions have subsided, I'm mostly back to reason.
How could someone who killed nine people at the age of six, and was the sole survivor in Qiusheng involving a hundred people raising poisonous insects, be simple?
"Was the person who harmed me very powerful?" Zhao Wenwen asked.
" Chan Master Jindu!" Ling Yi gave the name directly.
"What?" Zhao Wenwen was shocked when she heard the name.
Because Chan Master Jindu was the person Zhao Wenwen trusted most besides her parents from childhood to adulthood.
Because every time Zhao Wenwen was "treated" by Chan Master Jindu, her mind and body would relax a lot.
Only after being "treated" by Jindu could she get a few days of restful sleep.
In Zhao Wenwen's mind, this Chan Master Jindu was a divine monk with great abilities.
Now Ling Yi is telling her that this Chan Master Jindu is trying to harm her, how could she not be terrified?
"He planted several small demons within your body, and these demons will grow as you mature."
"When you turn eighteen next year, we will take back these little monsters and control you without anyone knowing."
"Actually, with your talent and perseverance, what happened back then won't affect you for long."
"This..." Zhao Wenwen didn't know why, but she felt uncomfortable hearing these words.
Does this mean I'm inherently Coldblood person?
"Besides, what happened back then wasn't your fault. When it comes to survival, everything you do is an emergency measure."
Why doesn't Ling Yi just say that those nine little monsters are the nine people Zhao Wenwen killed?
This might alleviate Zhao Wenwen's guilt a little!
It's better than nothing!
"The reason you often have nightmares is because of some kind of supernatural force."
"Think carefully, what was the situation of Chan Master Jindu twelve years ago, and what is his situation now?"
Zhao Wenwen still remembered this; when she first met Chan Master Jindu, the monk appeared extremely destitute.
But now, thanks to his parents' help, Chan Master Jindu has become a nationally renowned monk.
What was once a dilapidated temple has now become a thriving and popular temple.
Why didn't you just tell my parents about this? You should have known who my parents are already, right?
"If my parents find out about this, dealing with Chan Master Jindu will be easy."
That won't do. If I tell your parents, how am I supposed to Refinement those nine little demons inside you?
Where will he find a place then?
But that's not how it works, Ling Yi simply shook his head without offering any explanation.
"If you believe me, I will help you get rid of the little demon that's attached to you; if you don't believe me..."
"I believe you!" Zhao Wenwen said earnestly.
To be precise, Zhao Wenwen believed that Ling Yi, knowing her identity, would not dare to do anything to her.
Moreover, Zhao Wenwen instinctively preferred to believe Ling Yi.
"What should I do?" Zhao Wenwen asked.
"It will be very painful later. You need to stay focused and clear-headed."
"And I'll need your cooperation later."
How to cooperate?
"You'll understand when the time comes to cooperate."
Ling Yi intends to use the Soul Control Seal to seize control of the nine little demons from Chan Master Jindu.
This process will take Zhao Wenwen's soul as its battlefield, which is the main reason why Zhao Wenwen is in pain.
Fortunately, Chan Master Jindu wasn't around, otherwise Ling Yi certainly Facheng.
"When does it start?" Zhao Wenwen asked.
"Anytime is fine."
"Let's begin!"
"Practice the Qi Guiding Art first, and get yourself into the best possible condition."
If possible, Ling Yi would prefer to knock Zhao Wenwen unconscious before using the Soul Control Seal.
But as Ling Yi said, this process requires Zhao Wenwen's cooperation.
Ultimately, it was because Ling Yi's Spiritual Sense wasn't strong enough; otherwise, there would have been no need for such trouble.
While Zhao Wenwen was cultivating and adjusting her state, Ling Yi was not idle either, and began cultivating the Soul Suppression Art for the first time.
Ling Yi had only Copy the Perfection version of the Soul Suppression Art before. Although his Soul Power Spiritual Sense increased, the increase was not significant.
The key point is that it opened up the space of Sea of Consciousness, which saved Ling Yi a lot of Kung Fu Hustle.
This is also the benefit of being able to Copy cultivation experience and insights during the Copy process.
Otherwise, if Ling Yi were to create his own Spiritual Sense space, it would probably be a waste of Kung Fu Hustle.
This is when the real cultivation begins.
As the Soul Suppression Art was activated, six small, semi-transparent square seals appeared in Ling Yi's Sea of Consciousness, slowly rotating.
This is the original seal of the Six Seals of the Soul Suppression Art.
With this seal, one can instantly cast six seals without needing to re-condense the Soul Seal.
This is also a benefit of reaching the Perfection level of the Soul Suppression Art.
If it is not Perfection, it is difficult to create this seal.
It must be said that although that Chan Master Jindu was a wicked monk, his talent was truly undeniable.
To comprehend Upper Third Pin third-rank) cultivation technique like the Soul Suppression Art to its Perfection level requires exceptional comprehension and extraordinary talent.
Unfortunately, this wicked monk was of evil intentions.
Taking shortcuts is fine; there are plenty of evil people in this world. Refinement the souls of evil people can bring Merit and Soul Power.
Yet he insists on raising a little ghost, and even uses the soul of another person as a vessel to raise the little ghost.
That's not all. After using up someone else's soul, they still want to control and erase Zhao Wenwen's consciousness, a little devil Body Possession.
That's utterly devoid of martial ethics.
The Soul Suppression Art can actually be practiced independently to gradually increase Soul Power.
However, this process is rather slow.
Otherwise, Ling Yi wouldn't have targeted the nine Lesser Ghost King Realm within Zhao Wenwen's body.
Actually, it's a bit of a waste for these nine little monsters to devour them now, since they haven't reached their Limit yet.
But Ling Yi couldn't wait any longer, lest things get complicated.
As long as he devours these nine little monsters, he can achieve the Primordial Spirit.
The Primordial Spirit is a unique characteristic of the Nascent Soul.
However, according to the Soul Suppression Art, it's not called the Primordial Spirit, but the Soul Infant.
The Soul Infant is extremely powerful; combined with the Six Seals of the Soul Suppression Art Nascent Soul Realm.
As Ling Yi continued his cultivation, Ling Yi unexpected happened.
The Blood Spirit Art started operating automatically.
Ling Yi immediately stopped cultivating the Soul Suppression Art.
As the Soul Suppression Art ceased its operation, the Blood Spirit Art also stopped.
Ling Yi thought for a moment, took out a Qi and Blood Pill, threw it into his mouth, swallowed it, and then began cultivating the Soul Suppression Art again.
Once the Soul Suppression Art was activated, the Blood Spirit Art began to operate again.
What shocked Ling Yi even more was that after the Blood Spirit Art completed a small cycle, it did not repeat into the next small cycle.
Instead, it automatically extends new routes for the Transport Qi and Blood.
This made Ling Yi somewhat worried, but also somewhat helpless.
Because now he dares not stop cultivating so easily.
Otherwise, the unfamiliar route may not form a cycle, leading to Reversal of Qi and Blood, and damage to the meridians.
This cultivation lasted for a full two hours before finally completing the new cycle of Karmic Luck.
Afterwards, Ling Yi, pale-faced, swallowed two Qi and Blood Pill in a row before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
The new circulation of Qi and Blood involves more meridians and has a more complex route than the original small circulation.
It also consumes more Power of Qi and Blood.
But the benefits are also very real.
