Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Tell me the method."

"Are you going to practice today?"

"It's better to hurry up and come earlier." Chen Zhao said impatiently.

"This is the first time that your soul is out of body. You need help from others. Do you want to start now?"

"So fast?"

"You also said, it's better to hurry up than to hurry up."

"Do I need to prepare anything?"

"No, just stand still and leave the rest to me."

"Just stand still?"

"Yeah." The old turtle nodded.

Chen Zhao looked at Lao Turtle, as if he was doing Tai Chi.

At this moment, the old turtle seems to have some spirit of immortality.

Ah fight——

Wait...why has the painting style changed?

Why did Zhang Sanfeng suddenly change from Tai Chi to Bruce Lee?

Chen Zhao's chin had already been punched.

Left hook, right hook...

"Stop... stop..."

The old turtle didn't give Chen Zhao a chance to breathe.

"You...forget it Bruce Lee...why do you still have the King of Fighters moves..."

"wait……"

The old turtle finally stopped, and Chen Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he was almost beaten to death by the old turtle.

"Old turtle, let's be more serious, please, and don't make this mess."

"I'm very serious." Lao Turtle looked at Chen Zhao seriously.

"Seriously? You don't want to beat me to death, do you?"

"yes."

"But you've been fighting for so long, and I haven't seen you succeed."

"Who told you that I didn't succeed?"

"But I don't feel anything at all now."

"Look back."

Chen Zhao turned around and saw his other self sitting on the ground.

The eyes are white, the mouth is open, and there is drool at the corner of the mouth.

"Fake..."

Chen Zhao's face was full of astonishment. It turned out that he was now a spirit body.

"How about it? It's very accurate. It brought out your soul in one go." The old turtle said proudly.

It was like he had done something extraordinary.

Chen Zhao was confused: "What do you mean by beating out the soul at once? Otherwise, what else can be beaten out?"

"Okay, your spirit has come out. I really don't understand why you are practicing this."

This is the first time that Chen Zhao's soul has left his body and existed in the form of a spirit body.

However, there is no difference between him now and his original state.

It seems to be similar in terms of senses, except that the body is light and airy, as if it is about to float at any time.

Chen Zhao came to his body and tried to control the space ring.

Yes, the space ring is still under my control.

Chen Zhao took out the black key.

However, the moment the black key appeared.

The black key suddenly flew towards Chen Zhao's chest like a magnet, and then stuck to Yuanshen's chest.

"Ri, what's going on?"

The black key gradually blended into the soul, and then Chen Zhao's soul began to turn black.

"I'm not going to turn black, right?"

"Huh?" The old turtle turned his head in confusion.

Chen Zhao's change in spirit surprised him a little.

"Did you use any spiritual treasure?"

Chen Zhao thought. The black key should be used on the soul.

"I'm not sure, there was something integrated into my soul just now." Chen Zhao asked with some worry: "I am so dark now, will it be as dark as the plot of a movie or novel? Then I will not recognize my relatives. ?”

"..." The old turtle rolled his eyes vigorously: "Young man, you have read too many novels."

"But now my soul has turned black, and I always feel like I have become evil."

"Who said black is evil? Your soul is obviously strengthened now. It should be due to the integration of the treasure you mentioned and your soul."

"But having said that, if this soul is strengthened, what's the use of it?"

“The simplest explanation is that it makes you smarter.”

"How about a more complicated explanation?"

"It still makes you smarter."

"That means it's useless for strength or cultivation?"

"Who said that."

"Then what's the use?"

"It's just not obvious." The old turtle was speechless.

"No wonder those ancient Confucian scholars all claimed to be invincible, but in the end they were all weaklings."

"Each family has its own method. Even a divine beast like me has different methods, not to mention different sects." The old turtle said, "But now your soul and body are different from ordinary people. You have always been afraid of them. This is unprecedented, so it may not be possible to establish a sect.”

"No, let me follow the path of others. I have no intention of starting a mountain sect."

"I'm so unmotivated."

"Throughout the ages, those who had the ambition to stand out in their own way generally died miserably."

"In fact, the path of cultivation is nothing more than the immortality of the soul, the immortality of the body, and the eternal existence of the spirit. There are countless branches and schools of these three."

"how about you?"

"I'm considered immortal physically."

"Then you did it?"

"No."

"You have lived for tens of millions of years and you still haven't done it?"

"It's not as easy as you think. Some people have an epiphany in one move, while others are stuck at the abyss for the rest of their lives."

"Then what will happen to you when you succeed? Become a god?"

"I didn't succeed. How do I know what will happen if I succeed?"

"Will it become a part of this world just like in the novel?"

"You kid must have been stupid after reading the novel. If it weren't for the world to disappear, if this is what the monks are pursuing, they would only practice it if they were stupid."

"But doesn't Taoism emphasize the unity of nature and man?"

"Those are beautiful words. In fact, they are stealing the power of the sky and borrowing the power of the earth. When you reach that state, you can use the power of heaven and earth as you wish. You say you are awesome or not, but you always have to pay back what you borrowed from others. But If we follow the theory of harmony between man and nature, I borrowed it from you because we are family members, so why should we return things that family members use?"

"It's just a cover-up."

"That's not what you say. The laws of heaven and earth exist. Especially a monk like you should be in awe of heaven and earth. What is yours is yours. What you borrow must be repaid. Even if it is just a title, it is worth nothing. No name is good, you can play rogue with the bank, but there are no rogues in this world to play with."

"Then we won't practice the unity of nature and man. Let's change our routine."

"Look, you said before that you didn't want to be unique, but now you want to set up a new branch."

"What are some good recommendations? For example, the kind that you don't have to do anything, and you don't need a green lantern as a companion, you can just eat and sleep to practice?"

"I also want to have such a convenient cultivation method, how about you introduce it to me?"

"So, cultivation is the most annoying thing." Chen Zhao said disappointedly.

Returning to his physical body, Chen Zhao suddenly remembered: "By the way, you haven't told me yet how to get the soul out of the body."

"It's very simple. Make yourself lose your mind and then knock yourself out. The soul will be separated from the main body."

"What's the point of this?"

"have no idea."

"Is there any more convenient and quick method? Every time you want your soul to leave the body, you must first make yourself hysterical, and then make yourself faint. No matter how you think about it, it feels unreliable."
