Mind Mecha

Obviously, the third needle is not the last level of the trial, and three more flying needles will fall into the Sea of ​​Consciousness one after another. Fan Kang, who has been numb from the needle, vowed that he will never touch Liu Jing again when he has a needle in his hand .For a long time after this trial, Fan Kang suffered from sharp phobia, especially sharp objects like sewing needles.

The pain after the six flying needles fell was already the limit that Fan Kang could bear, but there was still no sign of expanding the sea of ​​consciousness.Just when Fan Kang thought that the trial failed and suffered in vain, another flying needle formed above the sea of ​​consciousness.Fan Kang didn't even have the strength to twitch the corners of his mouth now. Believing that Sima Lang wouldn't harm him was Fan Kang's only spiritual sustenance.

As expected, the seventh flying needle resonated with the first six flying needles, and the seven times the sting began.As soon as the stinging pain occurred this time, Fan Kang noticed that the reaction was different from the previous six flying needles falling. The entire sea of ​​consciousness rolled violently with the stinging pain, and the calm water surface was like a typhoon. huge waves.Fan Kang's consciousness is like a solitary boat in this huge wave, ups and downs, as if it will capsize and sink at any time.

Gritting his teeth and persevering desperately, Fan Kang finally survived the sting of the half tea time with the faith in his heart.At this time, the Sea of ​​Consciousness also slowly calmed down. Fan Kang, who recovered a little bit of energy, observed the Sea of ​​Consciousness with anticipation. He was relieved to find that the area of ​​the Sea of ​​Consciousness was a little larger than before. It should be a promotion. Fan Kang was relieved thinking.

Just when Fan Kang breathed a sigh of relief and thought that the promotion was over, the familiar energy fluctuations came again from the sea of ​​consciousness.Fan Kang looked at the eighth flying needle slowly taking shape with resentment, and couldn't help cursing Sima Lang inwardly, what kind of meeting ceremony was this, he wanted his own life.

Fan Kang, who was already exhausted, still had no remaining strength to bear the eight times the stinging pain. He could only rely on the willpower honed for more than 40 years in two lifetimes to persevere. After ten breaths, Fan Kang's consciousness began to gradually fade. Blurred, and after thirty breaths, the consciousness was plunged into darkness, with only a glimmer of light struggling in the darkness.

I don't know how long it took, just when the last gleam of light could hardly hold on and was about to fall completely into darkness, the time for half a cup of tea finally arrived.

As the stinging pain disappeared, Fan Kang's sea of ​​consciousness calmed down again and expanded a little.At this time, Fan Kang, who was sitting on the futon, couldn't even straighten his body, and fell to the ground unconscious.

Sima Lang was startled by Fan Kang's coma. He hurriedly lifted Fan Kang up with his spiritual thoughts and let him lie flat on the bed.

After careful observation, Sima Lang finally determined that Fan Kang fell into a coma due to excessive mental exhaustion during the promotion trial. Sima Lang muttered inexplicably: "I have clearly tested the strength of this kid's divine sense before, and after advancing to the human level There is no problem at all in the initial stage, how can there be excessive consumption of mental power. Could it be that there is something wrong with the refining array? It doesn’t matter, let’s wake him up first.”

Sima Lang already knew about Fan Kang's situation. It usually takes three days of coma to recover from this level of mental overdraft, but in order to make a good impression on the newly recruited disciples and figure out the situation as soon as possible, Sima Lang did not hesitate to waste 12 years The mental power exercise that was finally condensed stimulated Fan Kang's sea of ​​consciousness and accelerated his recovery of mental power.

An hour later, Fan Kang finally woke up. Seeing Sima Lang helping him recover, he was moved and knew that he had misunderstood Sima Lang.Fan Kang can be sure that Sima Lang is sincere to him, and the vigilance against Sima Lang in his heart has also been eliminated.But then he remembered the stimulation of the eight flying needles, and couldn't help complaining: "Master, your meeting gift almost killed my apprentice."

"Fart! The old man's God Formation was made by himself, and it has been used for so many years without any problems." Sima Lang, as a half-immortal, actually miscalculated the upper limit of the apprentice's endurance when helping his apprentice to advance.Sima Lang couldn't afford to lose this person, he firmly refused to admit that it was his fault, and actually let out his dirty words.

"That is to say, master, you miscalculated the disciple's cultivation level, and the disciple has not yet reached the peak of the middle stage of the human level?" Fan Kang asked weakly with a full face of grievance.

"Fart! Fart! Fart! As a half-immortal, I can still misunderstand the cultivation of a small human-level monk? It must be because of your lack of willpower due to your daily obsession with women!" Sima Lang actually took Liu Jing As an excuse, Fan Kang stared at Sima Lang's aggressive behavior and was speechless for a while. His image of a virtuous man was instantly shattered, and Sima Lang was desperately defending his dignity as a master like an old urchin.

However, we can’t blame Sima Lang for being so concerned about this matter. The duty of a master is to guide the apprentice on the correct path of cultivation, to help the apprentice avoid detours on the path of cultivation, and to prevent the apprentice from going astray. It is suggested that if you encounter danger during the promotion, it will have a great blow to the prestige of the master. Maybe Fan Kang will think that Sima Lang is a person who can only talk big.

"Tu'er is wronged. If Tuer's willpower is not strong enough, he would have been killed by those eight flying needles." Fan Kang saw that the blame was ineffective, so he could only pretend to be pitiful.

"Fart! Old man...wait a minute, you said eight flying needles? Did you count it wrong?" Sima Lang wanted to blame the blame, but was suddenly confused by the number of flying needles Fan Kang said.

"It must be eight, and I won't even make mistakes in counting." Fan Kang replied affirmatively after recalling the experience of the Sea of ​​Consciousness Trial, "The seventh flying needle has reached the limit of the apprentice, and the eighth needle that appeared later A flying needle is really powerless to resist."

"Let go of your sea of ​​consciousness, I want to check it out." Sima Lang was dubious, and immediately issued an order, and then released his consciousness to enter the top of Fan Kang's sea of ​​consciousness to check the size of the sea of ​​consciousness.

Sima Lang couldn't help cursing after the inspection was completed, after Shen Nian quit Fan Kangzhihai: "Damn! You are too courageous, you are not satisfied with breaking through the peak cultivation level in the middle stage of the human level to the elementary level in the late stage of the human level, how dare you try it?" The eighth god-refinement flying needle of the middle stage of the human level, this time it’s okay, it can be said that there is smoke on the ancestral grave. Let me ask you, why don’t you open your eyes and stop meditating after advancing to the early stage of the human level? You must know how to practice It can’t be completed in a day or two, it needs to be accumulated over time. Almost all those who try to advance one after another have no good end, ranging from a big loss to their cultivation base, to a severe case of breaking the sea of ​​consciousness and reducing them to mortals who can no longer practice for life.”

"Ah? Can this trial be stopped voluntarily? The apprentice thought that he just had to persist until he couldn't hold on..." Fan Kang finally knew what the problem was. It turned out that he had been promoted twice in a row.I should have stopped meditating after the seventh flying needle was pierced and the sea of ​​consciousness expanded, but I took it for granted that the trial would end automatically, and ended up doing the eighth flying needle trial inexplicably.Fan Kang knew that he was partly responsible for not asking clearly, but as a master, Sima Lang must be more responsible for not notifying him in advance.So pouted to express dissatisfaction, and blamed Sima Lang for not telling him in advance.

"Uh..." Sima Lang was speechless, knowing that he was indeed responsible, he smiled awkwardly and explained: "The God Refining Formation is suitable for monks with any cultivation level at the human level. The number of needles began to increase gradually, with one to three at the beginning of the human level, four to six at the middle stage, and seven to nine at the later stage. After passing the trial of the tenth flying needle, the monk's cultivation base can reach the human level Dzogchen. You need to quit meditation after one time, otherwise the next flying needle will automatically condense and fall after ten breaths. It’s been a long time since I’ve taught low-level monks. In the past, this kind of foundation was taught by others, and the old man only confuses high-level monks The problem. After a long time, the low-level knowledge is almost forgotten. Speaking of which, this is the first time I have seen someone who has successfully advanced twice in a row. Now your cultivation has reached the middle stage of the late human level, and the brain utilization rate is 80.00% .It’s no wonder that the apprentice was personally selected by the old man. He is really talented and has a bright future. I believe you can break the record held so far in the Qiankun Continent, and you can definitely break through to become a prefecture-level cultivator at the youngest age."
