Demon-killing Enlightenment

Can't feel the passage of time.

Mu Yang has been immersed in a state of flow.

Yang Jin's moves were just right. He never used any advanced moves, but just changed his attack pattern to adapt to Mu Yang's rhythm.

Just when everyone around him was feeling a little bored, Mu Yang stumbled and was freed from the flow state.

As soon as that feeling disappeared, Mu Yang suddenly felt physically exhausted and his spiritual energy was almost exhausted. His whole body was extremely sore as if it was falling apart.

He half-knelt on the ground, holding the scimitar, gasping for breath.

Seeing that Mu Yang had returned to normal, Yang Jin put away his sword and walked over.

"You must remember the feeling just now. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you." Yang Jin walked to Mu Yang and whispered.

After that, Yang Jin said to the children watching, "That's all for tonight. We'll continue tomorrow."

Then he left without looking back.

Mu Yang stood up with difficulty, still thinking about what Yang Jin said. Yang Jiao had already walked over.

"Let's go. Why are you still standing here? Teacher Yang has left. You stole the show today."

After saying this, Yang Jiao left without looking back, leaving Mu Yang with a confused look on his face, but then he followed Yang Jiao.

"Why did we disperse so quickly? Is there something urgent, Teacher Yang?" Mu Yang asked as he caught up with Yang Jiao.

"Hurry? We have exceeded the training time by a lot. Are you going to become stupid again?" Yang Jiao walked in front without looking back.

Really? It didn't feel like long. Mu Yang thought to himself. But he didn't get too hung up on it, after all, too many strange things had happened to him recently.

After returning to his residence, Mu Yang quickly sat down and closed his eyes to practice, carefully experiencing the feeling that Yang Jin told him not to forget.

Sure enough, just as Mu Yang entered the state of cultivation, some indescribable feelings appeared in his mind.

It wasn't like the visible movements of the Xing character technique, but it was slowly replaying Mu Yang's own movements.

In his mind, there were multiple Mu Yangs holding scimitars and waving them around. Every movement was so familiar, as if he had gone through a thousand practices.

Mu Yang's mouth curled up slightly. This feeling was wonderful. He used the Xing character formula skillfully and even improved it a little bit.

"Huh~" After the realization, Mu Yang let out a long sigh, his joy was beyond words. He actually mastered the Xing character formula in just one night, which really made him feel a little unreal.

He felt the spiritual energy in his body, and it was still very little, but he could feel that the spiritual energy was recovering quickly. He believed that it would not be long before his spiritual energy would become abundant again.

You can't feel the speed of time in the underground room, but Mu Yang thinks what Yang Jiao said is true, because he is really tired now.

Just when Mu Yang was about to lie down and rest, a voice came from outside the house.

"Practicing Reiki can replace sleep, and the effect is better."

Following the sound, a figure appeared in front of Mu Yang.

This is an old man about 60 years old, with an upright figure and a neutral appearance.

Seeing that Mu Yang didn't recognize him, the old man continued to introduce himself: "My name is Yang Heng, and I saved you three years ago."

"You are the clan leader, are you really the head of the Yang family?" Mu Yang said excitedly, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

"It's me. It seems that you are really seriously injured. You can't remember anything even after you wake up?" The patriarch asked when he saw that Mu Yang really didn't recognize him.

"I only know my name. I can't remember the rest, and I don't know what happened in the past three years." Mu Yang said bitterly when he saw the patriarch's concern.

"Alas, actually I don't know much. That night I chased the wandering soul south out of Yangcheng..." The clan leader recalled that night three years ago.

That night, there were a lot of wandering souls appearing in Yangcheng, and Yang Heng was guarding the south side of Yangcheng alone.

Just when the wandering souls in the south were almost cleared, one of them suddenly changed and gained some intelligence. Seeing that Yang Heng was very powerful, it tried to escape.

Yang Heng was worried that the wandering soul would come back, so he decided to chase it and kill it.

Yang Heng chased for about a thousand meters and killed the wandering soul. Just as Yang Heng was about to return to the city, he heard heavy breathing coming from the south. It sounded like an exhausted person running with his last breath.

Is there anyone else in the south? Yang Heng wondered.

But the panting sound was that of a person who was running to death. Yang Heng did not leave immediately, wanting to see what the person was. However, he did not relax his vigilance and was ready for battle.

As the panting sound got closer, footsteps could be heard. The footsteps staggered every three steps, and swayed every two steps. But they still ran forward firmly.

Finally, Yang Heng saw the blurry figure, and it turned out to be a person, a child.

Yang Heng no longer stood by and watched, he rushed forward and hugged the dying child.

The child fell into coma after being hugged. The injuries all over his body were horrifying, and black blood was oozing from the black wounds.

Seeing that the child was seriously injured, Yang Heng did not dare to delay and immediately returned to Yangcheng.

Having said that, Yang Heng came back to his senses.

"Strangely enough, your injuries did not get worse after you returned to Yangcheng, but you remained unconscious. I placed you at Xiaojiao's home."

Mu Yang already knew roughly what happened later, and he felt stupid for three years.

"So I'm from the south of Yangcheng," Mu Yang said absentmindedly.

"This is unlikely. To the south of Yangcheng is the Southern Wilderness, which is deserted and uninhabited. No one has ever dared to go deep into the Southern Wilderness." Yang Heng said firmly.

"Then why did I appear in the south of Yangcheng and was injured?" Mu Yang suddenly became a little excited after hearing what Yang Heng said.

It’s not that Yang Heng hadn’t made any guesses, but he had overturned all the possibilities. A child in the Southern Wilderness would have no chance of survival.

Yang Heng didn't want to dwell on this issue any more, but he couldn't discourage the child's enthusiasm either.

So he said, "You have to find out what your life story is by yourself, and finding the truth requires strength."

Mu Yang was stunned. It turned out that the old man came to visit for a purpose.

Seeing that Mu Yang didn't say anything, Yang Heng continued, "Yang Jin told me that you have good talent and you can compete with him as soon as you enter the Qi Awakening Realm.

You can see that Yangcheng has a sparse population, and wandering ghosts harass us every night, so we really lack candidates to kill ghosts."

Yang Heng's sincere expression reminded Mu Yang of Aunt Liu during the day.

Are the tactics used by people in Yangcheng the same?

"What does this mean, clan leader? When I reach the present Qi realm, I will definitely protect Yangcheng like Teacher Yang Jin did." Mu Yang asked back.

“No, no, no, you don’t have to reach the Xianqi Realm. You can just wait until you reach the middle stage of the Awakening Qi Realm. The Xianqi Realm is for children with average talents.” Yang Heng explained.

"Middle stage of Qi Awakening? So fast?" Mu Yang asked puzzledly.

“Of course, you have excellent talent, but continuous training will only bury you. What you need most is actual combat,” Yang Heng said.

The idea of ​​actual combat was actually a promise Yang Jin made in front of Yang Heng.

Yang Jin believed that as long as Mu Yang consolidated his Qi Awakening Realm, he would be able to kill ghosts in actual combat. Yang Heng, however, mentioned the middle stage of Qi Awakening Realm just to be on the safe side.

Moreover, Yang Heng had already explored Mu Yang's strength before entering the door, and Mu Yang's talent was indeed worthy of Yang Jin's guarantee.

"How about it, Mu Yang, do you want to see the streets of Yangcheng at night?" Yang Heng asked.
