C185 (2/2)

In the sky, there were shining stars. Along with the cold wind of this early winter night, they appeared especially cold and desolate, yet they also had a charming color.

Lin Jin sat quietly next to the bonfire, breathing continuously. It was obvious that he had already entered a state of immersion, but it was slightly different from his usual state of indifference to the outside world. It was that after a period of time, he would subconsciously pick up a few pieces of firewood from the ground beside him and throw them into the bonfire that was about to weaken, so as to prevent it from going out.

On the other side of the bonfire, A Huang was quietly lying down. He was looking at the bonfire with sparkling eyes, letting the flames in her eyes dance.

Sometimes, it would also look towards Lin Jin, revealing a gaze of reliance and trust.

Lin Jin himself did not realise that after receiving the emotions of these hundreds of people, his mental state had also changed a bit. At the very least, he wouldn't be able to unconsciously throw firewood into the bonfire without delaying his cultivation.

And this kind of casual care he had for A Huang also revealed the changes he had undergone at the moment. Otherwise, given his unaffected body, how would he be afraid of the extinguishing of the bonfire?

As the night gradually deepened, Lin Jin's breathing grew further and further away.

Gradually, it was as if his soul left his body and under his mysterious senses, he seemed to have merged into the entire space. The surrounding scenes entered his mind one by one, and every breath of his was like a dull and distant sound that resounded in this space at a steady pace.

As for his Spiritual Sense, it endlessly spread out in all directions, as if it wanted to become one with the world …

When dawn was about to arrive, in the sky far away from the north, a cold and enormous aura that seemed to have no end suddenly moved towards the sky over here at an incomparably fast speed, as if the entire world was under its control. Compared to this aura, the range of Lin Jin's Spiritual Sense that had merged with the heaven and earth was like a drop of water in a vast ocean, it was so small that it could be disregarded.

Very quickly, that cold aura floated to the sky above the mountain range.

Lin Jin let his Spiritual Sense carefully touch that huge Qi, and immediately felt that there was a weak but extremely pure Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth inside.

After hesitating for a bit, Lin Jin unwaveringly fused all of his Qi and the Spiritual Sense into this enormous aura, merging with it …

The moment all of his thoughts fused into this Heaven and Earth zhenqi, his heart and eyes seemed to have expanded a thousand times over. Everything in the world seemed to be beneath his feet, and even the floating clouds in the sky were no exception.

It was at this moment that he truly felt like he was looking down on all the living beings in the world, all the free and unfettered living things in the world.

After an unknown amount of time, the night gradually passed, and the orange sun finally rose from behind the distant mountains. Countless rays of golden light flashed, instantly dispersing the darkness and brightening the entire world.

Lin Jin was currently experiencing such a wonderful feeling. When he saw the sunlight from his thoughts, he could not help but be somewhat surprised, and looked towards the sunlight.

But at the same moment, he felt his consciousness go blank, and then he felt his consciousness leave the vast and boundless cold aura like water and return to his body.

When he opened his eyes to take a look, he realized that it was already dawn. His body, on the other hand, was clearer than it had ever been before.

Furthermore, all the zhenqi that had went on a rampage had disappeared without a trace, giving him a rare feeling of comfort.

What just happened? Lin Jin scratched his head, a little confused.

What he did not know was that the piece of scenery he had just experienced was recorded in the book《 Heavenly Hidden Seed》 by Sima Chengzhen, a Taoist cultivator in the Tang Dynasty. It was a mysterious sight that had the same fate as the zhenqi of heaven and earth, and within one year, as long as one could transport their own zhenqi and these zhenqi of heaven and earth together two or three times, it would be extremely beneficial for one's body.

However, it was extremely difficult to comprehend the zhenqi between heaven and earth. During this period of time, everything was indispensable, and one had to have that kind of free and unrestrained object which could not be coordinated with the heavens and earth to achieve this state of mind. If Lin Jin could reach this state tonight, it could be said to be inseparable from him being trapped underground for several months, being able to escape from it while also being able to comprehend the cold and warm state of mind of all the people in the world.

This time, breathing in the same breath of heaven and earth for a night, was comparable to how he trained for several months according to the previous method, but this feeling was something that only fortuitous encounters in the Taoist could ask for, and if he wanted to reach this state again in the future, he could only rely on fate.

He didn't understand, but he knew that if he continued thinking about it, it would only create a magic barrier in his heart. After thinking about it for a while, he called out to A Huang who was lying on the side, took out the other half of the rabbit meat that he had not finished last night, and started another bonfire that he didn't know when it had been extinguished …
