These voices echoed in Xing Nan's ears over and over again, and his heart was also shouting...
"I, Xing Nan, am not a coward!"
"Not a coward!"
"I am a pure man!"
His state of mind is getting more and more chaotic, but he doesn't want to waste time practicing, so he is still working hard to return to calm.
Gradually, everything about my past life and this life appeared in my mind like a fleeting glimpse.
Especially the bullying and humiliation I suffered in Lan Maple City in this life, as well as the death of my grandfather Xing Hao and Uncle Chen, are vivid in my mind and unforgettable.
The more I think about it, the more profound it becomes, and the more I think about it, the harder it becomes to extricate myself, as if I am stuck in a quagmire.
Consciousness gradually sinks!
At midnight, Xing Nan's only glimmer of clarity told him that if he didn't relax, inner demons would form.
However, he could no longer control his thoughts, and this invisible thing was the most difficult to control.
Just like a person who is lovelorn, he always wants to forget the past love pain, but everything will still appear clearly.
Falling deeper and deeper!
"When the inner demons come, they come. It just so happens that I also need to create inner demons..."
When Xing Nan thought of this, he was not worried at all. He closed his eyes and converged the chaotic thoughts into the sea of consciousness.
The monk's sea of consciousness is a vast void, surrounded by misty clouds and mist.
The soul is in the sea of consciousness.
The soul of an ordinary person is just a mist in the sea of consciousness, wandering in the vast sea of consciousness.
Like the Dantian, the Sea of Consciousness looks very huge when a monk looks inside, so huge that it looks like a piece of heaven and earth.
Compared to the vastness of heaven and earth, the monk himself appears to be very small, but such a small body can still contain heaven and earth.
This is the most peculiar existence of all creatures, and it is also the reason why all creatures can make progress by continuously developing their own potential. It is also the key to the reason why the strong ones can possess the power to destroy the heaven and the earth.
If you want to become a strong person, one thing is the foundation and the key, that is, you can feel your Dantian and sea of consciousness.
Ordinary warriors and swordsmen can generally feel the Dantian, but not the sea of consciousness, so they are just monks who have just started.
The exception is Xing Nan. When he was in the warrior stage, he could already feel the Dantian and the sea of consciousness, because his innate soul was twice that of ordinary people.
This is also a major advantage of his, but he didn't know how to take advantage of it before.
Xing Nan had never deliberately cultivated his soul before. Even though his innate soul was twice that of an ordinary person, it was still just a wisp of mist in the sea of consciousness, like a cloud in the blue sky.
At this time, in his sea of consciousness, the inner demons generated by his troubled mind have emerged.
The image of the inner demon is the same as him, that of a young man, and his appearance is the same.
The inner demon is a completely different self.
Xing Nan's own soul also transformed at this time. Although it was not his real self, it was completely controlled by him and represented his own consciousness.
"You are a coward, you deserve to be bullied, but you tolerated a woman scolding you outside the inn for a long time!"
The inner demon's voice was not like Xing Nan's. There was a hint of arrogance in his tone, and his demeanor was more like that of a peerless strong man who was already invincible in the world.
"You are just the result of some of my negative thoughts, so don't pretend to be in front of me." Xing Nan, who transformed from his soul, smiled calmly.
Ordinary monks would inevitably panic if they faced their inner demons for the first time, but Xing Nan was not the same. Firstly, he already understood the inner demons, and secondly, he was confident that the technique of transformation could control his own inner demons.
However, if he wants to use the art of transformation to control his inner demons, Xing Nan must defeat them when he encounters them for the first time, and then use the art of transformation to control them when they are at their weakest.
Just beat!
If he was defeated by his inner demon, he would be doomed, but he could not strangle and eliminate his inner demon.
He must keep his inner demons and control their growth in the future so that they can contribute to enhancing his soul's cultivation.
Undoubtedly, the inner demon is powerful because he knows everything about the monk very well, especially the monk's own weaknesses.
Fighting against inner demons is like fighting against another self!
Only by defeating yourself can you have a chance to defeat your inner demons.
"You are no match for me at all. Give up your resistance and let me control this body. It will definitely be much better than you controlling it!"
The inner demon was extremely confident. When he looked at Xing Nan, he was full of contempt and disdain, just like Luo Heng back then.
"You know me very well, and you should know that verbal attacks are useless to me. You can't defeat me with just words." Xing Nan said casually.
Troubled emotions and demonization are the last things monks want to face, but Xing Nan doesn't care and even looks forward to it.
At least he was calm and calm at this time, and his consciousness was very clear.
"Then let's fight for our true strength!"
The inner demon knew that Xing Nan was determined, so he didn't waste any more time. He dodged and rushed towards Xing Nan.
When he was about to get close, the inner demon made a wrong step and moved to the left of Xing Nan. He was about to punch him, but it was a false shot. He made another wrong step and was behind Xing Nan again...
This is the Seven Star Step, which is a kind of physical martial arts technique that Xing Nan usually uses. At this time, the inner demon used it more skillfully than Xing Nan usually used it.
Xing Nan also used the Seven Star Step at this time. The two figures intertwined and collided frequently, but did not make any sound.
This silent collision seems to be calm and harmless, but it consumes a lot of both sides.
Once either party fails to persist to the end, it will suffer a disastrous defeat.
Xing Nan knows it, and his inner demons know it.
The knowledge of inner demons was also obtained from Xing Nan.
Therefore, it is not easy for him to defeat his inner demons, and it is also difficult for his inner demons to defeat him.
Now they are evenly matched. Both sides use the same body skills to dodge the other's attacks, and they also use the same martial arts to attack each other.
But Xing Nan can't let the situation continue like this. The inner demon is not afraid of consumption, because the inner demon is not afraid of death, but Xing Nan can't, he must win, and a draw means he loses.
The inner demon is not weaker than Xing Nan, and he knows Xing Nan very well. Even as soon as Xing Nan makes a move, the inner demon already knows what move he is going to use... How can he win in this situation?
To defeat the inner demon, you have to use some moves that the inner demon doesn't know. But even if Xing Nan suddenly created such a move when he was in battle, the inner demon would know it immediately.
One rule of thumb for dealing with inner demons is that you should not use any of the moves you have used before, just use them on the spot and punch or kick at will.
Of course, this is not to ask the monks to fight randomly, but to forget the previous moves, give up all the habits and skills of fighting others, and rely solely on the quick reactions of lightning and flint to defend or attack.
It's easy to say, but hard to do. It's not easy to give up the habits and skills you've accumulated over the years, and it's even more difficult to make the most reasonable choice in a short moment.
In the beginning, Xing Nan could only attack randomly and without any plan, just to forget his previous habits and moves, so he naturally suffered a lot.
The reason why martial arts is powerful is that it is much stronger than the power that monks can create randomly.
Xing Nan doesn't use martial arts, but the inner demon knows how to use them, and he uses them very skillfully.
"You don't even have the confidence to use martial arts. What are you if you're not a coward?"
"Give up, you are no match for me!"
"This punch to the chest will take a lot of energy from you, right?"
"Oh, another kick, you are so disappointing!"
The inner demon took advantage again and again and was completely at the upper hand. When he attacked, he did not forget to mock Xing Nan.
The inner demon knows that Xing Nan has a strong self-esteem, and also knows that Xing Nan is very tolerant. Verbal attacks are not ineffective against Xing Nan, just like Jian Ling's challenges and insults outside the inn during the day, Xing Nan
On the surface, nothing seems to be wrong, but inside, I am boiling with anger.
Xing Nan ignored the words of his inner demon and continued to attack randomly without selflessness, and gradually entered this selfless state.
Gradually, he suffered less.
The situation is slowly being reversed!
The inner demon seemed to realize that the situation was not good. Instead of taunting Xing Nan, he fought more seriously.
This kind of fight is the simplest fight of fists and kicks, and the fight is just consumption.
As Xing Nan's condition gets better and better, his shots become faster and faster, and the faster and more accurate he is, the inner demon will suffer even more losses.
Because Xing Nan knew all the martial arts and fighting skills of the inner demon, but the inner demon no longer knew all about his moves.
The situation is first balanced and then reversed.
The inner demon finally started to suffer!
Although he also found that the situation was not good for him, the inner demon did not know how to deal with it. He could not be as selfless as Xing Nan.
The two sides fought fiercely for a long time, and the inner demon finally felt weak. He knew that if he continued like this, he would be destroyed.
Naturally, the inner demon was not willing to be defeated. He could no longer waste time with Xing Nan.
Then, the inner demon swayed, and something magical happened.
In the blink of an eye, Xing Nan's inner demon, who looked exactly like himself, turned into Xing Nan's deceased grandfather, Xing Hao.
"Nan'er!"
The inner demon's demeanor is very lifelike, exactly like the grandfather in Xing Nan's memory.
"Hmph! Pretending to be a ghost!"
Xing Nan knew that it was his inner demons that were causing trouble, but he did not attack anymore, but watched calmly.
At this time, he just looked at his grandfather twice, even though this grandfather was possessed by inner demons.
"Nan'er, I haven't seen you for a long time. You have grown taller and stronger than before. Your injury has completely healed..."
The inner demon began to talk, as if he had completely entered the role.
Xing Nan listened for half an hour, and then when the inner demon thought he had been bewitched and deliberately approached to attack him, he calmed down and punched the inner demon again.
The inner demon was defeated, but she transformed into a beautiful woman.
"Nan'er, I am your mother..."
Xing Nan listened to the inner demon's story for a while, and then also without any politeness, he repelled the inner demon who wanted to get close to him.
After doing this several times in a row, the inner demon finally became extremely weak and showed signs of collapse.
