Chapter 2170: Volume 10: The Demon Realm War, Chapter 2147: Heart-Forgetting Technique

Upon hearing Ao Xiao Ancestor's question, Han Li's expression changed slightly. His eyes narrowed involuntarily, and he stared straight at the other party.

"Does Senior think this junior succeeded?" After a long while, Han Li finally recovered his composure and asked back.

"Although the Spirit Cleansing Pool and the Spirit Purifying Lotus are famous, and many powerhouses from various interfaces have set their sights on them, I have never heard of anyone truly getting what they wanted. Logically speaking, even if you could return safely from the Demon Realm, the probability of you truly obtaining this opportunity would still not be high. But for some reason, when I saw you, I suddenly felt that your opportunity didn't seem as small as I had originally imagined. You should have succeeded, right?" Ao Xiao Ancestor hesitated for a moment before speaking with a trace of solemnity.

"Since Senior feels that this junior should have succeeded, then let's just say this junior has entered the Spirit Cleansing Pool." Han Li's thoughts turned rapidly before he finally replied with a smile.

If it were in the past, he naturally wouldn't have easily revealed such news in front of a powerful existence.

But now that he had cultivated the Nirvana Saint Body to the second stage and could use the Profound Spirit Sword, plus having the Crab Daoist by his side, he had the strength to fight even against an ordinary Mahayana existence, so he didn't have so many misgivings.

Moreover, Han Li wanted to know how this Demon Race Mahayana would react after knowing his answer.

"Good, very good. Since you have already entered the Spirit Cleansing Pool and consumed the Spirit Purifying Lotus, you naturally have a chance to advance to the Mahayana stage in the future. But in that case, everything I planned for Silver Moon was superfluous and shouldn't have been done. If I had known this earlier, I shouldn't have stopped her from seeing you sooner and let her cultivate that technique." Upon hearing Han Li's words, Ao Xiao Ancestor's expression became strange, and there was even a trace of regret in his tone.

"Superfluous, that technique?"

Hearing this, Han Li frowned slightly. After glancing at Silver Moon's indifferent face, he vaguely guessed something and couldn't help but sink inwardly.

"Cultivating the Heart-Forgetting Technique was my own choice, so how can I blame my grandfather? And if it weren't for this technique, how could I have made up for the flaws in my state of mind and advanced to the Body Integration realm? Moreover, after cultivating this technique, Ling'er knows that all love and hate in the world are just superfluous things, and only the path of the Great Dao is what we cultivators should ultimately pursue. As long as I cultivate diligently in the future, the bottleneck in front of me can always be broken through." Silver Moon spoke with unusual calmness.

"Heart-Forgetting Technique! Bottleneck? Senior, what exactly is going on? Could it be that the technique Silver Moon is cultivating has a problem?" Han Li finally couldn't help but ask.

"If you didn't ask, I would have told you in detail. However, this is not a place to stay for long, and my mission to sneak into the Demon Race area is almost complete. You and Fellow Daoist Crab should return to the coalition camp with me first. On the way, I will explain the relevant matters to you in detail." Ao Xiao Ancestor said slowly.

"Since it is Senior's invitation, this junior will naturally obey." Han Li suppressed the confusion in his heart, thought for a moment, and agreed immediately.

Silver Moon's eyes flashed a few times, but she didn't say anything else.

"Very good! Someone, serve tea, and return to 'Cottonwood City' immediately. Two fellow Daoists, sit down and talk." After Ao Xiao Ancestor nodded with satisfaction, he ordered outside the hall.

"Yes, Master!"

A few stiff voices came from outside the hall. After the silver building ship trembled slightly, it made a buzzing sound and flew away through the air.

Seeing this, Han Li and the Crab Daoist also sat on the nearby chairs as instructed.

Almost at the same time, light footsteps sounded outside the hall door. Several silver-haired maids wearing silver gauze walked in, holding tea trays, and respectfully served a cup of emerald-green spiritual tea to each of them.

Han Li was thinking about Silver Moon's affairs, so he naturally had no intention of tasting this seemingly extraordinary spiritual tea.

He just touched the tea with his lips out of politeness, put the teacup on the table to one side, and waited quietly for Ao Xiao Ancestor to speak again.

The Crab Daoist was somewhat unexpected. After looking at the teacup in his hand, he drank it all in one breath and tilted his head, saying woodenly:

"Not bad, the special spiritual power in this tea seems to be of some benefit to me. Fellow Daoist Ao, do you have any more?"

"Haha, Brother Crab is truly a straightforward person. Don't worry, although this Green Dragon Tea is rare, I still have a few jin here. If Brother Crab likes it, I will give it to you later." Ao Xiao Ancestor's eyes lit up, and he replied without hesitation.

It seems he also had a great desire to win over the golden giant crab.

"Then this one thanks you." The Crab Daoist just nodded and stopped talking.

Ao Xiao Ancestor, who knew the other party's identity as a pseudo-immortal puppet, naturally didn't mind, but turned to Silver Moon with a flash of affection:

"Ling'er, you have only been cultivating the Heart-Forgetting Technique for a short time, and your state of mind is not yet consolidated. You should go back to your secret room to meditate first. Don't let any accidents happen. Now I will accompany the two fellow Daoists alone."

"Since it is Grandfather's order, Ling'er will naturally obey." Silver Moon thought for a moment and agreed immediately.

She bowed slightly to Han Li and the Crab Daoist and exited the hall calmly, her expression remaining indifferent, as if Han Li was always just an ordinary friend in her eyes.

Han Li stared at the back of her as she turned and left. His lips moved a few times, but he still didn't say anything.

Ao Xiao Ancestor saw the expressions of both of them, and his face was full of bitter smiles. After Silver Moon truly disappeared from the hall, he said again:

"Fellow Daoist Han, you must have learned something about Linglong's background and her life before meeting you through others, right?"

"I have indeed heard some things, but after she returned to the Spirit Realm, it seems she has always been kept by your side, Senior." Han Li replied.

"That is indeed the case. When she just returned from the human world, she didn't return to the clan, but went directly to my retreat and knelt outside the formation for seven days and seven nights. I can still clearly remember the withered and thin appearance when I finally couldn't help but open the restriction and let her in..." Ao Xiao Ancestor sighed and began to tell the story in an unusually low voice.

Han Li listened quietly to everything, a faint light flashing in his eyes.

Time passed bit by bit, and Ao Xiao Ancestor's narration was very slow!

Sometimes, an extremely ordinary thing related to Silver Moon could be told in great detail, but Han Li vaguely heard something from it, and strange emotions kept rising and falling in his heart, but nothing could be seen on his face.

"When I felt something was wrong, it was already too late. Ling'er had already cultivated the Heart-Forgetting Technique to a small success. Although it was far from cutting off all emotions, I didn't dare to let her leave my side easily. So even for a dangerous mission like sneaking into the Demon Race, I had to bring this girl with me to be at ease. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Han could return from the Demon Realm alive and happen to let me run into you. It seems that in the dark, there is really a trace of heaven's will." After a full half-hour, Ao Xiao Ancestor finally finished telling everything, sighed, and stopped talking.

Han Li's face was gloomy, and after pondering for a long while, he slowly asked:

"So, the reason why Fairy Linglong has become so cold to me is entirely because of the Heart-Forgetting Technique. And after she relied on this technique to enter the Body Integration realm, you discovered that Linglong's constitution is actually not suitable for this technique. Once the Heart-Forgetting Technique is cultivated to the extreme, it will instead cause magic power backlash, and her cultivation will be lost. And this Heart-Forgetting Technique is a technique that will retreat if it stops cultivating. Even if Silver Moon gives up continuing to cultivate this technique, there will be endless troubles, and her magic power will stagnate from now on."

"Not only that, because her constitution and this technique are mutually exclusive. After cultivating the first few layers of the Heart-Forgetting Technique, the impact on Linglong is far less effective than I thought. Now, within a day, Linglong can barely maintain her true nature for one-third of the time, and for the rest of the time, she will be completely affected by the Heart-Forgetting Technique and become like what you just saw. And as the cultivation of this technique deepens, the time Linglong can maintain her true nature will only become shorter and shorter, and eventually disappear completely." Ao Xiao Ancestor was silent for a moment before telling another thing that startled Han Li.

"What? According to Senior, Silver Moon still has time to restore her original appearance every day. I said that when she was confronting Yuan Sha just now, when Silver Moon first appeared, her expression was completely different from later, like two different people." Han Li said with joy.

"Does Fellow Daoist Han think it's a good thing that a person's state of mind and emotions change drastically every day? For a person with a slightly weaker will, let alone meditating, I'm afraid they would go crazy from soul splitting before long. Every few days now, I have to perform a soul-calming technique to forcibly make up for the damage to Linglong's spiritual sense. This is also the main reason why I shouldn't let her leave my side easily." Ao Xiao Ancestor shook his head and said.

"Since this Heart-Forgetting Technique was prepared by you for Linglong, is there no way to resolve it? Moreover, you are a Mahayana existence, and your supernatural powers are imaginable. This little thing shouldn't be difficult for you." Han Li's expression changed, and he asked hurriedly.

"Linglong is my direct bloodline. If I had a way, I would have naturally performed it. But then again, if it weren't for Ling'er awakening the Seven-Star Moon Body talent, even if she cultivated this Heart-Forgetting Technique, I would really have a way to resolve it. But now, with the Heart-Forgetting Technique and this constitution mutually exclusive and mutually reinforcing, they have long been entangled together. Even if I have heaven-reaching means, I can only be helpless." Ao Xiao Ancestor's eyes twitched twice. After hesitating for a moment, he still told the secret that should have been hidden from everyone.
