Chapter 496: Willing to degrade the glory of the mortal world
For Rong Zi'er, who only loves Rong Xuan, asking her to be the so-called eighteenth favorite concubine of the Immortal Emperor is simply a day when life is worse than death.
So in her heart, she also planned it, that is, to see Rong Xuan one last time, she blew herself up the Yuan Baby, gave up the immortal body that had been cultivated for many years, turned into a wisp of sword soul again, returned to the worldly Heavenly Sword Village, and slept forever on the cliff.
The so-called Yuan Infant is the Yuan Shen generated in the body after the person who cultivates the immortals exceeds the realm of Yudan, and it is called the Yuan Infant because the Yuan Shen resembles a small baby.
When a person cultivating immortals has cultivated to the Mahayana realm, the Yuan Infant has fully matured and is qualified to cross the tribulation at this moment.
And the process of crossing the tribulation is actually the process of the destruction of the worldly body and the birth of the immortal dharma body.
Since the Dharma Body is far stronger than the physical body, once you survive the Heavenly Tribulation of the Heavenly Thunder Bombardment, even if you have completely transformed from the physical body into the Dharma Body.
That is what is often said to be an immortal body, only with a dexterous and changeable and light body can you successfully ascend to the immortal realm and rank in the immortal class.
In other words, cultivating immortals is actually the process of opening the spirit, then gathering the spirit, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to form a pill in the body, and forming a primordial infant, and then letting the primordial infant go through the baptism of heavenly thunder, give up the physical body, become a dharma body, and ascend to the immortal realm.
Therefore, the Yuan Infant is very important to the people who cultivate immortals, once the Yuan Infant is destroyed, it is equivalent to all the achievements of cultivating immortals are destroyed in one fell swoop, the light one still has a trace of soul wandering in the world, and the heavy one has a soul scattered, and the body dies, and there is no such person in the world.
If it wasn't really loveless, how could Rong Zi'er choose such an extreme way to rebel against the Immortal Emperor?
It's just that she knows that she has no power to fight against the powerful Immortal Emperor, and instead of living in the deep palace compound for a long time, and finally becoming a canary and a caged bird without any happiness, it is better to die and die.
The wisp of sword soul that turned back into oneself again, and returned to the worldly Heavenly Sword Village, can be regarded as a return to the roots, and there are no regrets in this life.
As for Rong Xuan, whom she loved deeply, she didn't want to kill him because of herself, so she decided to agree to the Immortal Emperor's request first, and let the Immortal Emperor fulfill his promise, not only not to assassinate Rong Xuan when he crossed the catastrophe, but also to help him and let him fly to the Immortal Realm smoothly.
This is also the last thing she can help him do, which can be regarded as repaying the promise she owes him.
Her only wish is to see Rong Xuan one last time in the crowd when she travels around the Imperial City, and then blow herself up and leave this so-called fairy world that does not belong to her.
also wants to make the Immortal Emperor give up his illusions about her through his own death, and no longer be embarrassed for Rong Xuan, who has already ascended to immortality.
At the same time, it is also for Rong Xuan to give up his obsession with himself, cherish the beautiful future of being promoted from a centipede to an immortal, and start a new life in the fairy world again.
And she herself has no regrets, because the happy time of cultivating immortals together with Rong Xuan in the secret room of Heavenly Sword Village in the past is enough for her to reminisce for a lifetime.
In the future, she will sleep forever on the cliffs of Heavenly Sword Village, and everything will return to its original state, as if she has never left.
It was precisely because she had this idea that she began to travel around the imperial city with the Immortal Emperor with a smile.
She knew that since Rong Xuan had ascended to the Immortal Realm a few days before she held the ceremony of canonizing the imperial concubine, he would definitely see the announcement on the imperial list and would definitely come to see her.
Of course, she also knew that Rong Xuan would definitely be heartbroken and depressed after learning of this result.
But Rong Zi'er felt that long pain was better than short pain, as long as she blew herself up, Rong Xuan was sad for a while, and naturally gradually forgot about her.
It's better than if she really entered the palace as a favorite concubine, for Rong Xuan, she must be worried day and night, worrying and tiring, that is the biggest torture, and for herself, she can't stay with her beloved, and the same.
Of course, she also made the worst plan, that is, even if Rong Xuan was too sad or even hated her for giving up on her, or for some other reason, she would still blow herself up.
It's just that after blowing up the Yuan Infant like that, there will be more regrets.
Because she will never step into the palace to be the so-called imperial concubine for even a second, after all, what she wants is not illusory gorgeousness, but real happiness.
And the latter is by no means something that the high-ranking Immortal Emperor can give her.
When leaving the palace and starting to travel around the imperial city, Rong Zi'er had been silently reciting Rong Xuan's name in her heart, longing for him to appear in his field of vision as soon as possible, because she hadn't seen her beloved for ten years, at this moment, Rong Zi'er really seemed to take a closer look at him to see if he was fat or thin, and whether his complexion was good.
It's a pity that along the way, there are too many people watching around, and they dazzle her, her eyes hurt, and she still can't see the figure she cares about appear in front of her.
However, she comforted herself in her heart, that is, it was okay if Rong Xuan didn't come, lest Rong Xuan be impulsive and ask herself in person that she was a greedy and vain woman, which would cause the Immortal Emperor to lose face.
At that time, I am afraid that I will lose my life in vain.
At that moment, Rong Zi'er even wished that Rong Xuan would be hard-hearted, because she hated her to the extreme, and it was okay not to come to see her.
Or if you are drunk and sleep for three days and three nights, it is a hundred times better than running recklessly and losing your life.
Rong Zi'er knew in her heart that although Rong Xuan would be very disappointed and sad if Rong Xuan didn't appear, as long as Rong Xuan could be safe, she would be able to leave the fairy world with peace of mind and go back to her Heavenly Sword Village.
Just when she thought that Rong Xuan would not come, she didn't expect a bee to stop on her shoulder and quietly convey Rong Xuan's words in insect language.
After listening to what the bee told her, Rong Zi'er's heart instantly lifted, she knew that something bad was going to happen.
She understood that Rong Xuan had obviously seen that she was forced to become the imperial concubine, and asked her to calm down for a while, planning to wait for an opportunity to save her from the control of the Immortal Emperor.
In this regard, Rong Zier was not only moved, but also worried.
Because she knew very well that he had just ascended to the immortal realm, he was only the lowest-level earth immortal, and it was impossible for him to compete with the immortal emperor who covered the sky with one hand.
Not to mention rescuing her from the heavily guarded palace.
When the time comes, not only will he not be able to save himself, but he will also lose his own life.
Thinking of this, Rong Zi'er knew that she couldn't hesitate any longer, she had to blow herself up immediately, otherwise it would be too late, once Rong Xuan really rushed over to save her, it would be completely too late.
She believed that only after letting Rong Xuan witness her death could she completely give up her plan to save her.
Just when she was about to blow up the Yuan Infant with a determined face after listening to what the bee said, she was looked at by Rong Xuan, who had been watching him closely.
After all, Rong Xuan and Rong Zi'er have been together in the secret room for a long time, so they still know Rong Zi'er's every move.
In addition, Rong Xuan remembered what Rong Zi'er had said, when it was born without love, it would turn back into its original wisp of sword soul and sleep forever on the cliff of Tianjian Village, so he quickly realized that Rong Zi'er was likely to choose to blow up the Yuan Baby.
In order to stop Rong Zi'er from giving up the immortal body that she had cultivated so hard, Rong Xuan knew that he had to do something to stop her.
Otherwise, once Rong Zi'er blew himself up, he would really lose his most beloved person forever.
It's just that he hasn't thought of any way to rescue Rong Zi'er, and he knows that he just rushed over to stop Rong Zi'er from blowing herself up, maybe he angered the Immortal Emperor and ordered him and Rong Zi'er to be executed on the spot.
However, he can't care about it so much, and the top priority is to prevent Rong Zi'er from blowing up the yuan baby no matter what method is used.
With this thought, Rong Xuan planned to immediately take off into the air and quickly fly towards the carriage that the Immortal Emperor and Rong Zi'er were riding, maybe he could also prevent Rong Zi'er from blowing up the Yuan Baby.
Just as he was about to fly up, he overheard two royal guards patrolling nearby mentioning the Heavenly Sword.
Suddenly, he instinctively stopped again and listened.
After listening to the casual chatter of the two royal guards, Rong Xuan learned that the Immortal Emperor had delusionally wanted to recreate a heavenly sword according to the secret book of the sword casting of the hanging coffin to sacrifice to the sky.
That is, the divine sword that Pangu used when he opened the world.
Because the Immortal Emperor has loved the long sword since he was a child, and even reached the point of being a sword idiot, he wanted to steal the sword casting cheats from the world at all costs, and then use the powerful spells of the fairy world, as well as various resources and heavenly treasures far beyond the world, to successfully cast the heavenly sword.
However, because the immortal realm and the mundane world have a powerful enchantment, people in the secular world must cultivate to the Mahayana realm, and then go through the test of the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation of Nine Deaths and Lives before they can be qualified to pass through the enchantment and ascend to the immortal realm to become immortals.
And once you become an immortal, you must never return to the world.
This is also an unquestionable law between heaven and earth, and it is also to protect the mundane world from being casually descended by immortals and ruining the world.
After all, immortals can often destroy a city with a single hand, so if the immortals are allowed to descend to the mortal world, the mundane world will long cease to exist.
Therefore, if the immortals in the fairy world want to return to the world, they can only give up the immortal body and return to the world with their souls to reincarnate again.
This means that everything that has been cultivated so hard before has been in vain.
Therefore, no one would be willing to do this and return to the world, give up the good immortal body and life in the fairy world, and then return to the world to start over.
This caused the Immortal Emperor's desire to send someone to infiltrate the world to steal the sword casting cheats in vain.
However, the Immortal Emperor was unwilling to give up the Heavenly Sword like this, so the Immortal Emperor issued a long-term royal notice a long time ago, that is, if anyone is willing to voluntarily give up the immortal body to descend to the earth, and after obtaining the sword casting cheats, re-cultivate the immortals, successfully survive the heavenly tribulation and return to the immortal world, and hand over the sword casting cheats to the Immortal Emperor, the Immortal Emperor can promise the other party any conditions.
It's a pity that there are many immortals who see this announcement, but there are very few who are really willing to sign up.
First, many people don't know the true whereabouts of this sword-forging cheat, and they don't have the confidence to find it when they go back to the world.
Second, even if you find it, if you want to bring it back to the immortal world and hand it over to the Immortal Emperor, you have to start over to cultivate immortals, not to mention that cultivating immortals is an extremely hard errand, and the final catastrophe is still nine deaths.
So many people are naturally discouraged.
Although the conditions promised by the Immortal Emperor were extremely tempting, if there was no life, what was the point of a good promise?
And for so many years, all the people who signed up to go down to the mortal world either returned to the fairy world with fake cheats, which is equivalent to returning in vain.
Either they took the cheats but failed to survive the catastrophe and died.
So no one dared to sign up for it anymore.
After learning the news, Rong Xuan also pondered a little and felt that the opportunity had come.
He planned to be demoted to the mortal world voluntarily for the sake of Rong Zi'er, on the one hand, he cultivated immortals and started over, and on the other hand, he tried to get the sword casting cheats.
The reason why Rong Xuan was sure that he could get the sword casting cheats was because he was a centipede in the underground secret room of Heavenly Sword Village, and he was very familiar with Heavenly Sword Village, so after returning to the world, he would automatically turn back into the original centipede of Heavenly Sword Village.
At that time, he will have to start cultivating immortals all over again.
And his request to the Immortal Emperor was naturally to marry Rong Zi'er as his wife......
