Isn't this a game? How come you guys are really cultivating immortals!

Chapter 412 A tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs

Song Jiulai felt that he couldn't always rely on others like this.

"Asking others about everything can lead to dependency, which is not good."

System: "Then don't go ask this time."

Song Jiulai: "Definitely next time!"

As she emerged from the main hall, she looked up and saw that the statue of Nuwa was still as gentle and compassionate as ever.

A large group of players from the inner sect sat down to meditate.

The rain that had just fallen was also beneficial to them, and they were absorbing it now, so Song Jiu didn't disturb them.

With her current cultivation level, no one would notice if she wanted to leave the inner sect.

Even a Golden Core cultivator can instantly travel a hundred meters away in a single breath, making Song Jiu's figure impossible for others to detect.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Zhai Xiaotian noticed something and was slightly surprised.

"Your presence is so well concealed."

If it weren't for his high cultivation level and the large amount of Song Jiu Lai involved, he would have even sensed that the aura of Song Jiu Lai was somewhat indistinct.

Zhai Xiaotian said, "The Golden Core stage?"

Song Jiulai feigned surprise: "Senior Zhai is truly a genius!"

Zhai Xiaotian: "..."

He was so angry he almost laughed.

The key is that Song Jiulai's magical treasures are truly extraordinary. Could she possibly possess some kind of divine artifact?

Even though they knew Song Jiulai's true cultivation level, they could only sense that he was at the late stage of Qi Refining.

And even her face is different every time, yet it looks so normal, as if she was born this way.

Zhai Xiaotian no longer knows exactly what Song Jiu looks like.

After all, every face he sees could be fake.

This magic weapon is truly sinister.

No wonder Song Jiulai is doing so well outside.

With such cunning, I wonder how many people have fallen into Song Jiulai's trap.

Zhai Xiaotian: "I don't come to the temple without a reason."

Song Jiu always has something to do when he comes here.

"The way you're saying that makes it sound like I can't come to see you unless there's something else going on."

Song Jiulai stepped forward and poured Zhai Xiaotian a glass of wine like a sycophant: "It's rare for me to come back to the sect, so I came to see you."

“I’m not senile yet; it hasn’t been long since we last met.”

Song Jiulai said confidently, waving his hand: "Hey, what are you saying? Was this the face you saw last time? I just change my face every time I see you, to give you a sense of novelty."

System: "At least you brought some fruit when you came, so people at least have some manners."

Zhai Xiaotian: "..."

When Song Jiu came forward, Zhai Xiaotian caught a glimpse of her gaze.

A chill ran through me.

Even he felt a little unable to see through those eyes.

Song Jiu poured some spirit wine for Zhai Xiaotian, pulled the stool forward, and immediately revealed his true purpose: "This time I entered the Golden Core stage and am undergoing my first tribulation. There are a few minor problems."

Zhai Xiaotian raised an eyebrow: "Is the tribulation of lightning unpleasant?"

"That must have been unpleasant. Whose tribulation is easy? But I think I saw something during my tribulation."

Song Jiulai said seriously, "I saw myself, but I felt that it wasn't me, it was just an illusion of me. Can you understand? It didn't have much of an impact on my tribulation this time, but I feel there are some problems."

"Could this be the legendary inner demon?"

During the tribulation, inner demons will arise; every cultivator experiences this.

This is why cultivating immortality requires cultivating the mind, but not everyone can fully cultivate their mind.

Many people do not die from the lightning tribulation, but are disturbed by their inner demons, which is why they fail to transcend the tribulation.

As for the concept of inner demons, there are many theories.

Zhai Xiaotian's expression froze.

After a long silence, Zhai Xiaotian said, "It's an inner demon. Heavenly tribulations can indeed breed inner demons that interfere with those undergoing tribulations, but if you haven't been greatly affected, then this inner demon sometimes doesn't originate from your past, and it usually carries a certain degree of precognition."

"Heaven tests people, but it is fair."

"Precognition?" Song Jiulai asked in surprise, "So, what I'm seeing isn't the inner demons I formed in the past, but a vision of the future?"

Zhai Xiaotian nodded: "The future has not yet happened. The Heavenly Tribulation will show a possibility. Some cultivators will also be disturbed by the future and may choose to take a different path. This is also a kind of inner demon."

"It may not affect you now, but looking to the future, it may actually harm you."

The reason why many people have to pay a price for divination is because they see the possibilities of the future.

In order to bring about future change, we will actually make it happen.

Zhai Xiaotian frowned: "What kind of illusion did you see?"

“It’s just me.” Song Jiulai couldn’t quite describe it: “Nothing else, no expression, but I felt like that wasn’t me. I could never look at people like that.”

Zhai Xiaotian smiled upon hearing this: "Many things cannot be said with such certainty."

“How could that be?” Song Jiu said, “I don’t look like a good person at all.”

She always seemed to see nothing, as if everything else was an ant in her eyes.

That's terrifying.

They've lost all humanity!

Zhai Xiaotian glanced at Song Jiulai but didn't say anything.

Song Jiulai stood up and bowed to Zhai Xiaotian: "Thank you for your explanation, Senior Zhai. I will come to see you again when I have time."

Zhai Xiaotian chuckled softly.

Only after Song Jiu left did Zhai Xiaotian show a serious expression.

"During my first tribulation, I wasn't bothered by any inner demons; instead, I saw the future..."

He originally thought this woman was exceptionally talented, but he never expected her temperament to be so astonishing.

The inner demons of the Golden Core stage are not strong, but it cannot be said that they have no impact at all.

However, this is not all good.

This suggests that her crisis may lie in the future.

After leaving the restaurant, Song Jiulai took a stroll around the town of Wang'an County.

Wang'an County has undergone a major transformation. While the style remains somewhat ancient, everything else that could be changed has been altered.

Even ordinary people are living a modern life; the newly built windows along the roadside are all inlaid with glass.

On the surface, Song Jiulai appears to be a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, so the players naturally cannot see any problems with her.

The system said, "Someone is checking your household registration."

Wang'an County is now entirely under the control of Changsheng Sect players; even a rogue cultivator would know this clearly upon entering.

Song Jiu's sudden appearance here has already attracted attention.

However, Song Jiu didn't care. She went to the street and happened to come to Mao Yuzhu's cake shop.

The young master named Gong Xingsi works here.

Gong Xingsi happened to be absent today, so Yin Da is selling cakes in his place.

When Song Jiu came to buy the cake, she glanced at Yin Da a couple more times. Yin Da's face immediately darkened: "What are you looking at, you late-stage Qi Refining cultivator? Be careful or I'll gouge your eyes out!"

As expected, people in the late stage of the Golden Core realm have bad tempers.

Yin Da is feeling stifled working here, even though he's a dignified late-stage Golden Core cultivator.

Although he doesn't usually show his aura, he's still a late-stage Golden Core cultivator!

To work for a cultivator whose cultivation level is lower than one's own is simply degrading!

Song Jiulai: "Hey, what's with your attitude? I'm going to file a complaint against you! Where's your boss? Boss, boss!"

Yin Da quickly stuffed two more cakes into Song Jiulai's paper bag.

"Shut up, shut up! You better watch your mouth when you go out next time!"

Even a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs; even a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator dares to bark at him like a dog!
