Chapter 20: Reaching Heaven
Rao is the spirit of the snake demon, and he really can't understand how this small dilapidated skeleton in front of him that can't even stuff his teeth can be so ashamed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Could it be that he really has something to rely on? But obviously I can't feel the slightest cultivation from him.
However, at this time, the cautious snake demon was obviously enraged by the arrogant tone of the skeleton, and the humiliation it had endured before made it unbearable any longer.
"Whatever you are, die."
The snake demon roared angrily, and the snake tail that was stronger than iron and stone smashed fiercely towards the skeleton, flying sand and stones, and the momentum was violent.
"The sword said, broken." Seeing that the snake tail had swept in front of him, the skeleton didn't hide, but just spit out a word indifferently.
Hiss...... Yes!!!
In the terrible roar, the snake's tail, which was nearly several feet long, was mysteriously broken, like duckweed out of the water, grazing the face of the skeleton and throwing it out, leaving only a straight line of blood in mid-air.
"How...... Possible? The snake demon lost his voice in horror.
From beginning to end, it didn't see the skeleton make a move, could it be that just one word can judge a person's life and death, this is really terrifying.
For a moment, the snake demon's heart was filled with an uneasy haze.
"What the hell are youβwhat the hell are you?"
The fall of the snake tail, in fact, is just a minor injury for the snake demon, as long as it is given time, it can be taken back, and even broken tail and reborn, but what makes it unacceptable is the unknown means in this process.
"It's just a stinky skin, but I have to give it back to him." The skeleton muttered to itself as if it hadn't heard, looking up and down at the only broken skeleton left in its body. "Brother Jian, you and I are integrated, you are the form, and I am the will. But though I am not him, he is still me. So, you want to help me. β
Airplanes!!!
A monstrous sword intent swept through the jungle, soaring straight into the sky, and even crushed the floating clouds in the sky.
"Oh? It's a fun ...... However, this is different from my original intention...... Hey, let's see. The skeleton seemed to understand the meaning of the sword's roar, and there was a strange and hesitant tone in his tone.
Let's say that the skeleton here is talking to himself, but it makes the snake demon around him look more and more ugly.
At this point, it knew that it had been ...... Ignored.
The snake is cunning and suspicious, but it is always a beast, and it has been tempered by the spirit of Hongmeng, and its temperament has become more and more tyrannical.
"Bastard, give me death. Privilege, serpentine devouring the heart. The enraged snake demon almost didn't think about it, and sacrificed the most privileged killer weapon, and in the wide open mouth of the snake, there were death ripples visible to the naked eye, and the skeleton was enveloped in an instant.
Click!!
I saw that the broken skeleton was shrouded in death ripples, rapidly corroding, and countless cracks continued to grow on it, and no one doubted that perhaps a gust of wind would be enough to tear the skeleton into powder.
"Noise." The only remaining eyeball of the skeleton glanced at the snake demon, but it was such a look, but it made the snake demon feel like thunder, and its head was like the pain of being pierced by ten thousand swords, and it took away the strength of its whole body in an instant, and it couldn't even open its mouth to roar, and then the huge body fell to the ground weakly, stirring up endless smoke and dust and mud.
The fall of the snake demon seemed to the skeleton as if it were an inconsequential matter, and it didn't even look at it, still falling into the previous hesitation.
"That's it, so far, there is only one way to go, and he won't blame me if he thinks about it." After a long time, the skeleton finally made up its mind, and after coming back to its senses, it looked towards the snake demon prostrate on the ground.
"Ah, senior, this time the little snake really knows that it is wrong, and I hope that the senior will spare his life." The massive snake demon trembled in the skull's gaze, and with a crying voice, it exposed the endless fear in its heart.
"Oh, it's a pity...... It's late. However, don't worry, I won't crush your bones to ashes, your flesh and blood and demon pills will be of some use to him. The skeleton said calmly, and finally took a step forward, stretched out his left arm, and volleyed at the snake demon's seven inches.
β¦β¦
It was as if the curtains of the black house had suddenly been lifted, and when Zhan Bai opened his eyes with difficulty, he was full of starlight.
The empty eyes gradually became bright, and the ability to think was finally restored.
His eyes rolled around, and the jet-black dead tree beside him told Zhan Bai that he was still in the swampy jungle at this time. The fatigue and weakness of the body also proved that all this was not a dream, but ......
Too many questions filled Zhanbai's head in an instant, but instead of getting to the bottom of it as before, he threw it all out.
"Aren't you dead? Unreasonable, it's just expected. Zhan Bai pursed his lips, but his face sank, "Come out to see me." β
Come out and meet me!!
With a little anger, a little expectation, and a little helplessness. It seems to be talking to oneself, but it is also questioning others.
Airplanes!!!
The sound of the sword was not loud, but it was exceptionally loud and shocked the ear drums.
A gray bolt suddenly radiated from the center of the white eyebrows, stopped in front of him, and turned into a pool of gray shadows.
The gray shadow kept surging, and finally turned into a human figure, although it was not clear, but with an indescribable sense of familiarity.
"When did you find me?" The figure spoke, the voice was dry and gloomy, lifeless with a sonorous sound of metal, but in the indifference, people could hear a touch of sadness.
"Who are you?" Zhan Bai was not interested in answering the question of the figure at all, but he had too many doubts in his heart, since he couldn't figure it out, the reason was still messy, so it was better to ask the person concerned directly, or...... Ghost.
"I'm you."
Zhanbai was silent.
The figure thought that Zhan Bai didn't believe it, and then said, "Otherwise, why would you be entangled in the same dream." β
"Reincarnation?" Zhan Bai frowned, he was actually not so unacceptable to the figure's answer, because he had vaguely guessed before.
"Yes and no." The figure's answer was confusing, "To be exact, you are the reincarnation of my realm." β
"What is the realm?"
"The realm is my life's perception of the realm of swordsmanship; The spirit is the spirit of my seven spirits, which is located on the eyebrow chakra. The figure gestured to the center of his eyebrows.
"People have three souls and seven spirits, do you mean that I only have one soul?" Zhan Bai sneered.
"Hey, no, you have three souls." The figure laughed, a nervous laugh.
"Three souls? Are you a three-year-old? Zhan Bai's face sank.
"No, you're smart because you have two spirits. As I said before, you are the reincarnation of my realm, and since you are a reincarnation, you naturally have to have a carrier. Reincarnation is not something out of nothing, it's just borrowing someone else's body. β
"It's like a snatch?"
"Yes, yes, it's to take away, hehe, these words of cultivating immortals, I'm still not used to it, haha. However, this seizure is not another rejection, to be precise, it should be reincarnation. The figure laughed.
"So, my current mind is no longer the same as I was?" Zhan Bai now had the urge to strangle the figure in front of him.
"The original you? Hehe, if it is said that a psychic fetus has not yet been born, then, I admit, yes. The figure rubbed its chin.
"And what do you want?" Zhanbai finally lost his patience and hit the point.
Yes, what is the purpose of this person to strip away the realm and reincarnate when he is still a fetus?
"I ...... What do you want? The figure's mood changed suddenly, and the end of the voice was filled with sadness that was so thick that it could not be dissolved.
Silence, silence for a long time, Zhan Bai did not bother, but waited patiently, he knew that this was a person with a story, and it was a very wonderful story.
The night was getting thicker and thicker, and the night before dawn was damp and cool, and the dew unconsciously wet the whole body.
Finally......
"That Ryu Seung-young...... I know the purpose for which he groomed you. Are you really willing to take the risk? The figure abruptly changed the subject.
"I am reminded that I am still the Lord who does my own thing." Zhan Bai said expressionlessly.
"I know what you think. I just want to ask you, if you had another better option now, would you say yes? The figure asked.
"Then I'll have to talk about it." Zhan Bai did not answer immediately.
"Liu Chengying's so-called sword cultivation technique, finding another way, using flying swords as a bridge to communicate with heaven and earth, the idea is good, but there is a very fatal shortcoming." The figure said.
"What are the drawbacks?" Zhanbai's heart jumped, he really didn't know much about the path of metaphysical cultivation.
"That's the talent ceiling. Even if you can win the bet in the end, lay the foundation successfully, and achieve the primordial realm, but after all, you rely on external objects, then your promotion ceiling in the future will be affected by the quality of that flying sword, and I don't think that kid has the ability to come up with a good flying sword. The figure said unceremoniously.
Although he didn't understand the way of metaphysical cultivation, the words of the figure sounded well-founded, so that Zhanbai couldn't find the words to refute it.
"So what do you mean by the better option?"
"Hmm...... Nor is it the best option, because this method is only theoretically possible. The figure smiled irresponsibly.
"Theoretically possible?" Zhanbai's face immediately darkened, and after saying so much, the bastard in front of him wanted to use himself as a guinea pig.
"Don't be angry, you can listen first, and no one will force you anyway." The figure shrugged his shoulders and said in relief, "It's called ...... Well, let's call it demonization. β
What is it called demonization, how does it sound like a temporary name? Zhanbai's eyes couldn't help but half-narrow, which was obviously a sign of an attack.
"This demon magic, as the name suggests, is to turn into a demon, a demon, not a demon, this must be remembered, although there is no such thing as a demon in this world, but in my hometown, it is a curse." The figure didn't seem to see Zhanbai's expression, and was still chattering to himself.
"And please make a long story short." Zhan Bai finally suppressed the anger in his heart with Nuoda's perseverance and said coldly.
"Turn people into swords and achieve a generation of sword demons." Sure enough, the figure's words became extremely concise, and he was silent after a short sentence.
"Demon? What is it? Zhan Bai's forehead was slightly wrinkled.
"Do you remember the snake before, it's a demon? In fact, it also evolved from the beast, absorbing the Xuanhuang Qi into a Xuanhuang Beast, if it is the Hongmeng Qi, it is a demon. The figure explained.
"You mean that if I practice that demonic technique, it will become a sword?" Zhan Bai drew inferences from one another.
"Well, it's tiring to talk to smart people." The figure smiled bitterly, "Yes, only after cultivating the sword heart can you personify a human form." You're lucky though, because ......"
"The conditions are very harsh, but I don't see any superiority in swordsmanship?" Zhan Bai interrupted angrily.
"Theoretically, it's a way to heaven." The figure is a few simple words, but it points directly to Zhanbai's heart.
What is the purpose of constantly getting stronger in the Void Lands? What is the purpose of escaping from the Void by any means? What is the purpose of groveling to be a companion to others?
It's not for a certain day, he will no longer be bound by even the slightest constraint, but it is such a seemingly simple goal, but it took Zhanbai ten years to really understand the price to be paid for it.
Powerful, yes, incomparably powerful, incomparably powerful, only in this way can we finally be unrestrained and do whatever we want.
If before, whether it was the pursuit of powerful force or the exhaustion of all means to cultivate, it was a step by step self-training, then at this time, the figure undoubtedly gave him a clear goal.
All the heavens, all the heavens, what else can restrain themselves.
