Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 20: Suzaku
Seeing the three figures disappear into the picture, Tang Jie let out a sigh of relief. The most important thing in his mind was completed.
Putting away the map of the country, Tang Jie was about to do something when his heart suddenly moved and he turned around to look.
The firebird in the sky is like the wings of the sky, hanging in the sky.
It looked at Tang Jie like that, with the Nanmingli Fire God flame dancing between its eyes.
It and Tang Jie just looked at each other, looking at each other.
After a while, Tang Jie finally raised his voice and said, "You seem to have taken away my trophy."
As these words came out, the firebird suddenly stretched its wings, and a blazing flame leaped from its body.
The flames burned the entire sky brightly, setting off boundless heat waves in the secret realm without harming anything at all.
The flame continued to twist and change in the air, and gradually condensed into a female figure. At the same time, the flames in the air condensed into a piece of flame gauze, which fell lightly on her body. A girl with long fiery red hair stepped out of the flames.
Standing in the sky, long flames danced in the sky. The flame girl looked at herself, as if looking at some novelty, with an overjoyed smile on her face, and a long giggle from her mouth.
This laughter was hearty, bright, and filled with indescribable joy, spreading throughout the world and filling the entire secret realm with laughter.
After laughing for a while, the girl turned her head.
She looked at him, like a fairy from the Nine Heavens looking down at the mortal world. She suddenly covered her red lips with one hand, and heard a very sweet female voice: "You are so stingy, why do you want something the first time you open your mouth?"
Looking blankly at the scene in front of him, Tang Jie was also a little stunned.
After being stunned, he said: "Are you a fire bird?"
The girl in the sky smiled, waved her hand and said: "That's so rude. It's so rude to talk about Firebird and Turkey. People have names. You can call me Suzaku."
Is it really Suzaku?
Tang Jie was not surprised by this answer.
From the day he got to know the White Tiger, he had thought more than once whether the firebird trapped in the secret realm of the Soldier Master could be the legendary Suzaku.
Now that it was finally confirmed, Tang Jie also let out a long breath: "It turns out that you can speak and transform."
The only communication between Tang Jie and Huo Niao was when Feng Buzhi asked Huo Niao for advice on the yin and yang. Since communication was through mind at that time, Tang Jie always thought that although Firebird was a great demon, it could not speak or change its shape.
Unexpectedly, this understanding was broken today.
Suzaku smiled sweetly and said: "My body is sealed, so I can't change my words. The last time I communicated with you, my mind was at its limit. If I hadn't received the thoughts of the gods, I wouldn't be able to change at all, let alone words."
As he spoke, he lowered his head to admire his figure, his expression full of pride, obviously extremely satisfied with being freed from the seal. She was originally a super demon, but for some reason she could only appear in her true form, and even her thinking was chaotic. Now that she has finally regained her clarity, how could she not be happy.
"So that's it." Tang Jie understood: "It turns out that you can turn into human form because of the thoughts of the gods."
"Yes." Suzaku pouted and replied: "If it weren't for it, this girl would still be sealed now. However, this spiritual sense is still missing, and this girl can only maintain this form for a limited time. Alas, if It would be nice to have more divine thoughts, just four or five copies would be enough."
Tang Jie's eyes lit up: "This is simple, more spiritual thoughts are still on the golden body of Tianshen Palace. You just need to go over and absorb the divine thoughts of the golden body."
As long as it can cause trouble for Tianshen Palace, Tang Jie will never hesitate to use any means.
Suzaku rolled his eyes at him angrily: "Do you want to lead me to death? What a place the shrine was that day, a place where great powers gathered. If I broke in, I wouldn't be skinned and boned, or roasted in oil. That’s weird.”
She is a majestic flaming holy beast, but she is afraid of being roasted by others, which is very interesting.
Tang Jie said with a smile: "The sacred beast Suzaku exists on the Immortal Platform, how can it be afraid of a small Celestial Palace?"
Zhuque covered his mouth and smiled: "Are you crazy about destroying the Tianshen Palace? If I were on the Immortal Platform, would I still be imprisoned in this small world, with my sealed consciousness and magical powers completely lost? Mo They say that I don’t have that much ability. Even if I do, I still can’t go to the Heavenly Palace. This God’s Thought only allows me to speak and change freely, but it is far from being able to escape from prison.”
It turns out that she is still trapped here.
Tang Jie couldn't help but said: "Why are you trapped here?"
Suzaku's face suddenly darkened. She looked back at the volcano and the lava, with the light of memory in her eyes: "I don't know... From the day we met, I Here I am, I still vaguely remember that in the beginning, I was just an egg, lying in the lava, absorbing the heat of the magma. I don’t know how many years passed, but one day, I woke up and broke out of the shell. ."
"When I was just born, I was confused and didn't know anything. I just thought that this world was everything. But from that time on, I already had an idea in my heart, which was to protect this land and prevent any outsiders from destroying it. , only those who pass the test can enter... It's strange, I have never seen anyone, but I have such an understanding. It's just that in so many years, I have never seen anyone come in. There is nothing to do, and I can only Able to sleep in magma and grow up. Until not long ago...you came!"
The light in Suzaku's eyes became more and more blurred.
"It turns out that you, like Bao'er, are also descendants of holy beasts." Tang Jie murmured.
Unlike the White Tiger clan, the descendants of Suzaku were sealed in the secret realm by the war master from the beginning and sealed, making them the guardians here.
Speaking of which, she is simply a more pitiful existence than Bai Hu. Although the White Tiger clan has been imprisoned for generations, at least they still have their own knowledge and can still contact the outside world. Suzaku, on the other hand, has been in this level for tens of thousands of years. From birth to now, he has hardly seen anyone again.
She can act like a normal person now only because, like Suzaku and White Tiger, after the bloodline awakens, the memory imprinted in the bloodline will be revived.
But because of this, when she knows that there is a bigger world outside, she will feel lonelier and lonely.
But the power of the seal imprisoned her, making it impossible for her to escape.
The lack of communication in the original environment, coupled with the conscious influence of the seal, made Suzaku become like most spirits. The originally enlightened wisdom returned to ignorance, and the clear mind also returned to chaos.
The arrival of Tang Jie gave Suzaku the opportunity to contact humans for the first time.
Subject to the innate seal, Suzaku at that time just instinctively and mechanically performed its mission again and again.
Despite this, in the repeated exchanges with Tang Jie, the originally ignorant wisdom was still a little loosened. The hope for freedom and the desire for communication gradually emerged again.
In this case, Suzaku's mind became clearer day by day. Although it still retained its primitive barbarism and ignorance most of the time, it at least could distinguish the existence of Tang Jie, He Chong and others. He gained the most basic understanding and showed the most basic wisdom.
Twelve years ago, Tang Jie tried to contact Suzaku and asked for advice on the way of yin and yang.
That was not prohibited in the seal - the task given to her by the seal was to test, not to inhibit growth.
The instinct of communication made Suzaku decide to help Tang Jie.
She was lucky. At that time, Suzaku's consciousness was still in a semi-chaotic state, and his thoughts were hazy and difficult to discern. But just as a person with amnesia would not forget how to eat, the ignorant Suzaku's understanding of the great road was not affected by this. Influence.
If Tang Jie asked to chat with Suzaku at that time, it would be difficult for Zhuque. At that time, it had thinking, but it was not clear, and the seal did not support it to have meaningless communication with Tang Jie. But when he consulted the Yin-Yang Dao and the Supreme Principle of Heaven and Earth, Suzaku was sober. This was the only thing Suzaku could do in semi-chaos, and it was not restricted by the seal.
What Tang Jie didn't know was that Tang Jie benefited greatly from that exchange of thoughts, and it also allowed Suzaku to completely open the door to spiritual wisdom that had been closed for a long time. Memories came flooding back, and wisdom was enlightened once again.
In the following time, she observed, she studied, and she thought.
Unfortunately, the world of Secret Realm is still monotonous.
Even with Tang Jie and He Chong present, there was still too little communication that Suzaku could feel. Moreover, these two people were so difficult to deal with that they would not chat when nothing happened. Therefore, even with humans, the secret realm was still lifeless.
This makes the recovery of Suzaku's intelligence still a little slow. If she continues at this speed, it may take her a hundred years to truly recover. Otherwise, she may not advance but retreat, and fall into darkness and ignorance again.
Fortunately, Tang Jie finally stopped being dull.
He took action.
Take the clone and fight with He Chong.
While the fierce collision impacted the world of the secret realm, it also impacted Suzaku's sea of consciousness, dispersing the dark clouds that obscured it, making its mind clearer and clearer. The thought of the gods is the final impact on this wall of confusion, and it is also the most powerful impact.
In the short period of time that Suzaku swallowed the Thoughts of the Gods, her consciousness experienced unimaginable storms, and finally she completely regained her clarity, further grew, and was even able to partially escape the restrictions of the seal. , allowing her to transform into a human form and speak. No wonder she was so happy before.
"...So, that is to say, you neither know nor can you return the thoughts of God to me now?"
After the exchange, Tang Jie, who pondered for a while, said this.
"If it weren't for me, the thought of God would have been lost long ago. No matter what, it would be half of me."
"That means you still have half of me?"
Zhuque was grabbed by his sore leg, with a hint of blush and anger on his face, and finally said: "Hey, do you want to be so mean? After all, this girl has also told you that Yin Yang Dao has helped you. Busy."
"I was burned into charcoal with fire." Tang Jie answered seriously.
Suzaku was anxious: "That is the order given to me by the seal, I have to obey it!"
"That is to say, even now, if I want to go into the valley to collect herbs, you will still burn me?" Tang Jie once again grasped the key point.
Suzaku blushed, lowered his head and replied: "Yes. This is a prohibition in my blood, and I have to obey it. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless there are more thoughts of the gods like just now, I may be able to use my strength to break through the restriction."
"That's impossible, is there any other way?"
"Then I can only wait until one day, after you pass the nine tests, I will complete my mission and free myself from the ban."
Tang Jie lamented in his heart: "This is like saying nothing. In short, although you can turn into human form and talk, you have no value other than chatting with me. And I want to go to the valley to collect immortals If you're stupid, you won't show mercy even if you hit me, right?"
Suzaku was furious: "What does it mean to be worthless except chatting with you?"
Tang Jie spread his hands: "Then tell me what role you can play to make up for the half of my lost God's thoughts."
Suzaku was speechless.
She thought about it and couldn't find anything she could do to help.
She couldn't pick any of the fairy grass in the valley under the ban, and she couldn't survive the test of Tang Jie under the ban. Thinking about it this way, she really had no value to Tang Jie.
When I thought of this, Suzaku became angry: "Why should I give you that half of the divine mind? So what if it's half of it? If I swallow it, I'll just swallow it and I won't give it to you. What's going on?"
As he spoke, he put his hands on his small waist and simply assumed an arrogant and unreasonable posture. You can’t beat me anyway, so who am I afraid of?
Tang Jie was stunned by her behavior, and was even speechless for a moment. After a while, he finally smiled and said: "It turns out she is an unreasonable girl."
Zhuque was very embarrassed: "Who is this girl? I have lived here for eight thousand years, and I can be your grandma regardless of my age."
"In this case, grandma, please continue to stay here. I will not accompany you, but I will take the first step." Tang Jie said bluntly.
"What? Where are you going?" Suzaku was stunned. She had just regained her clarity, and when she was talking, Tang Jie suddenly wanted to leave, and she immediately felt reluctant to leave.
Tang Jie snorted: "You are unreasonable. You take other people's things without paying for them. Naturally, I should stay away from you. You, old man, just play here slowly."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of getting away.
Hearing this, Suzaku was anxious: "Hey, hey, no."
Tang Jie hit her at the critical point this time. Not to mention that she needed someone to accompany her to relieve her boredom when her intelligence was just beginning to develop. Even if she wanted to lift the restriction, she needed Tang Jie to clear the level all the way. If Tang Jie is angry and never comes back, then she will have no hope of getting out of trouble and freedom for the rest of her life.
After the spiritual wisdom is opened, nothing is more important to Suzaku than freedom.
Seeing that Tang Jie was about to leave at this moment, he could only say in a low voice: "Okay, okay, I'm just joking with you. But I really have nothing to give you now."
Tang Jie stopped, looked back at Suzaku, and said with a smile: "That's right. It doesn't matter whether you have something or not. This can be discussed. The key is to have an attitude first. Only by correcting your attitude can we talk. Come on. , come here, let’s have a good talk.”
Suzaku shook his head: "This body is only within a square inch, but it cannot get out of the valley."
That's true.
Tang Jie sighed for Suzaku in his heart.
The secret realm is not big to begin with, but this poor girl can only see and cannot get out. She can only wander between the magma and the valley all day long and sleep. No wonder she returns to ignorance after becoming wise... It is really suffocating. of.
Tang Jie smiled: "Then let me come over."
As he spoke, he walked towards the valley.
As long as he doesn't pick the fairy grass in the valley, Suzaku doesn't have to attack him.
The carving entered the valley, and the red bird also fell into the valley.
Tang Jie came to Zhuque and said with a smile: "Actually, you may not have nothing. You must know that you yourself are the greatest wealth."
Suzaku looked nervous: "What are you planning? If you want me to be your servant, that's absolutely impossible."
Although her intelligence was initially incomprehensible, she still had many experiences left by her ancestors in her bloodline memory, including one of "Don't sell yourself easily" to prevent future generations from signing any treaty with others when they are ignorant and cheap. Just sold myself.
Just sell it. Although the Four Sacred Beasts were strong in ancient times, they were not at the top level. If they had the power to reach heaven and earth, selling themselves would not be out of the question. But selling it cheaply is an absolute no-no.
Tang Jie didn't expect that there were so many valuable experiences hidden in Suzaku's bloodline. His thoughts were exposed by Suzaku before he even opened his mouth. He was caught off guard for a moment and could only hide his embarrassment by shouting in the sky. As he thought, he quickly changed his words: "You misunderstood, how could I ask to control a holy beast? If I want to control you, I must have some thoughts of the gods."
Suzaku nodded repeatedly, unaware that he had unintentionally set his worth on a few gods and gods. Although the price is not cheap, it is different from Suzaku. The most important thing is that it is not out of reach.
When Tang Jie saw her taking the bait, he smiled and said, "But you can't do it as a complete person, but you should be able to do it as a partial person."
"What? You still want to slice this girl up and sell it?" Suzaku was furious.
Tang Jie smiled and said: "Aren't you impatient again? You misunderstood. What I mean is that the bodies of holy beasts are treasures. If you are willing, you can give me some blood, right?"
Suzaku suddenly realized that this boy wanted blood essence.
But speaking of it, this is not impossible, and it is indeed a method.
She turned to look at Tang Jie: "This is okay, but blood essence is different from ordinary blood. It is the essence of the blood of the holy beast. Even we ourselves cannot have too much."
"I won't ask for a lot."
"Then how much do you want?" Suzaku was led by Tang Jie unknowingly.
Tang Jie smiled and said: "One-tenth is enough."
"What?" Suzaku suddenly exploded with a burst of flames, and a raging force rose into the sky. The girl's two willow eyebrows stood up, looking at Tang Jie with murderous intent.
One-tenth of the essence and blood?
This greedy bastard, does he know what one-tenth of the blood essence means?
Thousands of years have passed, even if Suzaku has done nothing. With only the improvement of her bloodline power and cultivation in this magma land, her realm has also been raised to the peak of distraction, and she is only one step away from entering the realm of returning to the void. The main reason why it cannot break through is that the weapon master's restriction limits its improvement, because once it enters the void, it is equivalent to the immortal platform, and even the soldier master's restriction cannot restrain it for a long time.
But once one-tenth of the blood essence is taken away, Suzaku's strength will be reduced by at least one level, which will have a huge impact on Suzaku.
Tang Jie was not in a hurry: "Girl, don't be anxious. Just listen to me."
"No matter what you say, it's impossible!" Suzaku said angrily: "Your request is too unreasonable. I won't be able to recover even one-tenth of my blood essence in less than a few hundred years."
"I don't think it's unreasonable." Tang Jie said with a smile: "Think about it, Miss Suzaku, if I bring five copies of the God's Thoughts and let you control it for me for a hundred years, it won't be a problem, right?"
"Five thoughts of the gods?" Suzaku lowered his head and thought for a while.
Five thoughts of the gods are almost enough for her to get out of trouble. If this could really be the case, it would be worthwhile for her to be Tang Jie's servant for a hundred years. It would be better than being trapped here like before.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "Five portions are fine."
Tang Jie said: "Look, since five parts of the God's Thoughts can buy a girl, then half of the God's Thoughts is exactly one-tenth of the girl's worth? So I want one-tenth of the essence. Blood is not just talk, but there is reason and basis."
Huh? Is there still such a way to settle the account?
Suzaku was stunned for a moment. ~IndoMTL.com~ She tilted her head and thought for a long time. She always felt that there was something wrong with this account, but she couldn't explain why.
After thinking for a long time, he shouted: "I know, haha, this account is wrong!"
Tang Jie's heart skipped a beat, thinking that this girl woke up so quickly. Wasn't she intelligent? Even if you have the experience left by your bloodline, it cannot replace your own wisdom. Why did you get around the twists and turns in it all at once?
I heard Suzaku shouting: "I have already used one part of my spiritual power before, and if I add five more parts, it should be six. Half of my spiritual power should be one-twelfth, not one-tenth." !"
"..." Tang Jie was speechless.
Seeing Suzaku jumping and jumping happily, Tang Jie gave a thumbs up and said with admiration: "Girl is smart, I know that this little trick can't be hidden from the girl. In this case, one-twelfth of the blood essence Bring it."
"..."
