Looking at the three choices in front of him, Ji Yang immediately eliminated the middle option.
Now that we are here, there is no reason to go back empty-handed.
However, between the first and third options, Ji Yang hesitated.
Active learning and secretive peeking, both involve watching, and it seems that there is not much difference, but when you think back to the previous choices, there is a big difference.
What's more, he is now in this Taoist temple, and perhaps there are some powerful people inside.
In order to live longer, Ji Yang decisively chose to peek secretly.
He was worried that if he was too proactive, he would show signs of abnormality.
As the prompt in front of him disappeared, Ji Yang also began to peek at the moves of these Taoist temple disciples.
Although they were not using combat skills, Ji Yang could see that these moves seemed to be supported by the power of qi and blood, thus bursting out with powerful power, which was similar to combat skills.
This made Ji Yang a little more cautious. If he could get a glimpse of a move, after this deduction was over, he might be able to comprehend new combat skills and improve the strength of his people.
Spring goes and autumn comes, time passes quickly.
The disciples in the Taoist temple have been replaced one after another, but Ji Yang's locust tree still stands in the center of the square, without any change.
What made Ji Yang feel regretful was that after peeping for so long, he only saw a few identical martial arts on these Taoist temple disciples, and no overly advanced moves.
It was the same few moves over and over again, and Ji Yang had almost mastered them.
Just as Ji Yang was lamenting his boredom, a new prompt soon appeared.
[You have been watching the Taoist temple disciples practice martial arts for a long time, and the "martial spirit" has been added to your body. The tree trunk has undergone new changes. What will you choose? ]
[Soaring up][Let it be][Hide quietly]
Watching the new plot, Ji Yang's consciousness left his body and he soon noticed some changes in himself. After absorbing the so-called "martial energy", there seemed to be some strange patterns on his trunk.
Faced with this new choice, Ji Yang chose to hide silently after a little hesitation.
He stole... He hadn't learned enough, he wanted to improve!
Time is on his side anyway.
After making the choice, the lines that were originally visible on Ji Yang's tree trunk gradually disappeared, but Ji Yang could sense that these lines did not really disappear, but were hidden.
As long as he thinks about it, these lines will reappear.
Time began to pass again, and Ji Yang, who chose to hide silently, seemed to have stopped growing his trunk and no longer continued to grow upwards.
Of course, this is also because Ji Yang took the initiative to use the ability of free growth.
On this day, the sky gradually darkened and the square was empty, with only the gentle breeze and bright moon as companions.
But Ji Yang's consciousness quickly realized that someone was approaching.
However, Ji Yang had already gotten used to this. This square seemed to be the place for practicing martial arts in this Taoist temple. In addition to morning exercises, there were also many hard-working disciples of the Taoist temple who came here to practice martial arts.
This discovery also made Ji Yang realize that the world he deduced was indeed not an illusion, but a real one.
However, the passage of time made Ji Yang a little confused.
He didn't know whether it was the wind or the flag that was moving.
Or maybe it's my heart that's moving.
"Master will teach you a set of sword techniques today. This sword is dangerous. It feeds on the seven emotions and uses the six desires as its blade. After you learn it, remember to use it with caution."
"Disciple understands."
The voice that came to his ear startled Ji Yang.
After entering the world of this simulation, he was able to understand some casual conversations, but his consciousness was not strong enough, so he could not hear sounds farther away, and he did not obtain any useful information on a daily basis.
But after hearing these words, Ji Yang perked up and couldn't help but look at the two people who were talking.
The two men, one old and one young, were both wearing Taoist robes and holding long swords. The young man looked to be about ten years old, but the old man seemed to be in a fog, making it difficult for Ji Yang to see clearly.
After finishing speaking, the old man with a blurry figure also began to dance with the sword in his hand.
The sword shadow was blurry, but with each dance of the old man, a bright color gathered from all around. The colors were chaotic, coming from all directions and blending into the long sword in the old man's hand.
As more and more colors gathered, the sword in the old man's hand became brighter and brighter, and the blade was full of light and glowing with infinite light, making people unable to take their eyes away.
When the long sword became extremely shining, even Ji Yang's consciousness was unconsciously attracted by it.
At this moment, a bright golden color suddenly shot out from Ji Yang's trunk.
The golden light did not go away, but went towards the sword in the old man's hand.
"Huh?"
The old man paused with his sword and let out a sound of surprise.
"broken!"
Seeing the golden light coming out from his trunk, Ji Yang felt something was wrong.
Before Ji Yang could make any move, a cold snort came from his ear:
"Who is this evildoer who dares to act so presumptuously in my Floating Cloud Temple?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yang's eyes were filled with colorful things, and it was a gorgeous and unavoidable sword light.
Ji Yang's consciousness was torn apart, and then a new prompt appeared in front of him:
[You secretly peeked and accidentally revealed your emotions. You died! ]
When the subtitles disappeared, Ji Yang clearly saw his own tree trunk turned to ashes under the sword light, leaving no trace.
Before he died, the old man slowly put away his sword and said to the young man:
"Disciple, remember, although this sword technique can borrow the power of the seven emotions and six desires, it also has certain disadvantages when borrowing. When using this sword move, you need to equip..."
The voice beside his ear became fainter and fainter, and before Ji Yang could finish listening, everything in front of him was dark.
When Ji Yang regained consciousness, what came into view was the familiar ancestral hall of his family.
But at this moment, Ji Yang was a little annoyed, because he hadn't finished listening to the old man's last words!
However, thinking back to the sword light just now, Ji Yang still felt a lingering fear. With such strength, he must be a strong man in this world.
Before Ji Yang could think about it, several prompts appeared in front of him:
[The deduction is over! ]
[You have learned a new ability in this deduction: the true body of the Martial Saint! ]
[You learned a new combat skill in this exercise: Big Dipper Fist]
