212, road
People who have died once, and still can't be enlightened? If it weren't for Gu Zhenren's timely action, the spirit jade at this time would have become a pile of dry bones.
Listening to Wei Wuyi's earnest teaching, Lingyu always smiled and wrote down word by word.
In the past, she was not serious, but, as Wei Wuyi said, she relied too much on her own cleverness, despised the great wisdom that should be had, and sacrificed the basics.
The road to cultivating immortals has never been achieved overnight. For hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, if you can't introspect yourself from time to time, no matter how good your state of mind is, your heart will be dusty.
This time, what she loses is important, and what she gains is even more important.
Lingyu lowered her head and looked at her hand that could no longer cast any more spells, and clenched her fists tightly.
She didn't have much time left. A hundred years, a hundred years at most, if she can't form a golden pill, she will be like a mortal, turning to dust......
This time, there was no longer any fluke, there was no lead, she became a chaser, and there was no other way but to do her best!
This is the sense of urgency that she has never had in the past, as long as she neglects it a little, she may not be able to return to the sky. finally snatched back this life, how could she be willing to end up like this?
"But be prepared." Wei Wuyi said, "The injury of the dantian should not be underestimated. How many people have been cut off from the immortal path due to the damage of the dantian, you can save it, I don't know how lucky you are. Despite the elixir, it took thirty years for your body to recuperate to the state it is in today. Next, while you are cultivating, you must continue to recuperate, and you must not neglect it. β
"Yes. I understand. β
Wei Wuyi smiled slightly: "How to go in the future." All a teacher can give you is advice. In the end, you still have to figure it out for yourself. Okay, let's go rest, we're not in a hurry at this time. β
"In vain obey."
Back in her lounge, Lingyu habitually sat cross-legged on the futon.
But instead of starting to cultivate, she picked up the broken sword next to her.
Kan Li's sword was broken, and after decades of warmth, the feeling of connecting hearts and minds will never be there again. She stroked the cold blade. Gentle as touching a lover.
There is no purple light flowing, and even the spirituality of the material itself cannot be felt.
Jian Xiu's sword was destroyed, and it turned out to be this feeling.
Lingyu closed her eyes and pressed the blade of her sword against her face. The natal magic weapon is discarded, and it can only become a pile of scrap iron, and there are very few materials that can be extracted. This Kanli sword, which has been with her for decades, is finally leaving......
I don't know how long it took for her to finally put down the broken sword, as if she had let go of her past.
A sword cultivator who has lost his sword can no longer be called a sword cultivator. Sword cultivation Cheng Lingyu. It will be a past that will never go back.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Have you figured it out?" Wei Wuyi sat cross-legged on the top and asked the Lingyu below.
Although I still don't like the disciples to be on the side. After getting married, there is still more power that will not exist before, even if it is just sitting so casually.
"Yes."
"Tell me about it."
Lingyu said slowly: "There are two paths in front of the apprentice now. The first is to choose a sword again to recognize the master, and then take the road of sword cultivation. The second is to give up the Lord Spirit Sword and take another path. β
"There are pros and cons to each of these two paths." Wei Wuyi said.
"Yes." Lingyu nodded lightly, "Choose the first path, my body is the foundation, and I have also comprehended the sword intent, before I get to the knot, I am familiar with the road, there will be no bottlenecks, this is excellent; And the difficulty of sword cultivation to advance to the level is obvious to all, especially the step of knotting, some people spend hundreds of years in building the foundation to find the way to condense the sword heart. β
"As for the second path......," Lingyu's voice paused slightly, and then continued, "Although the bottleneck of foundation building will not exist in the same way, it is always more difficult to take a new path than to take the old road." I don't know if this path is suitable for me, and many habits have to be adjusted......"
"However, if this path is done well, all your previous hidden dangers will be eliminated, a more solid foundation will be laid, and even the chances of Yudan will be improved." Wei Wuyi took over and looked at her, "Which one do you choose?" β
Lingyu smiled slightly and said, "The apprentice has to take the third path." β
Wei Wuyi's eyes narrowed: "What do you mean?" β
Lingyu looked at his hand and said, "The feeling of the Natal Spirit Sword breaking, for Jian Xiu, is a pain that I can't look back on, I don't want to experience it again, but if I can't face the pain of the past, I can't stand up again." She raised her head and looked at Wei Wuyi, "Master, I will continue to practice the sword, but I will not choose another Natal Spirit Sword." β
"...... you," Wei Wuyi looked directly at her, "to fundamentally cut off the possibility of losing the Spirit Sword?" β
Lingyu smiled and shook her head: "Master, this is not an escape, I just found that there may be a more suitable path for me to take." β
"Oh?"
"Actually, I don't have such a fanatical hobby for swordsmanship, and the reason why I became a sword cultivator is because when I was in the lower realm, my uncle who taught me said that I was very suitable for sword cultivation. But now that I think about it, good bones and decisive judgment are important to any monk. Because I didn't have a complete sword cultivation lineage, I had been cultivating all over the place, and when I came to the upper realm, in order to become an 'orthodox' sword cultivator, I worked hard to adjust myself in the direction of sword cultivation, even including my personality...... Now that I think about it, it's a downgrade. β
Wei Wuyi smiled slightly: "You can say that, it can be seen that you have really thought about it seriously." β
ββ¦β¦ The reasons for this are, firstly, that I am not right, and secondly, that this path may not be suitable for me. She carefully dissected her heart, "Just like Master, you said, I have too much, and many times, it's not that I want to get something and then go for it, but that others tell me what I can get, so I just do it naturally." Cultivating immortals, this is what I have to do myself, but cultivating swords has never been such an urgent desire. β
She just wanted to be strong, not limited to becoming a sword cultivator. Thinking about it carefully, even Luo Yun can't compare, even if Luo Yun's qualifications are not suitable for becoming a sword cultivator, but he has a real sword cultivation heart.
- Speaking of which, Luo Yun has been building the foundation for decades, he is not so lucky, he has struggled for more than 30 years, and finally stepped into the foundation building period before knowing the destiny of heaven.
"You said it, it just means that you don't want to do sword cultivation anymore, what does this have to do with the third way?"
Lingyu smiled: "The apprentice just thinks that he is not a pure sword cultivator, so it is better to be impure!" β
"Not pure?" Wei Wuyi's hand holding the teacup paused, his voice slightly confused.
"Hmm." Lingyu nodded heavily, "After cultivating the sword for so many years, the disciple thinks that he still has some talent in swordsmanship, and it would be a pity to give up." But to become a pure sword cultivator is not in line with my personality, and in this case, I will be an impure one. Kendo continues to cultivate, but it will no longer recognize the Lord's natal spirit sword. β
Wei Wuyi thoughtfully: "So, you still have to be...... Dharma cultivation? β
"That's right." Lingyu carefully counted her strengths, "Master, you see, the apprentice has some talent in talismans, and he likes to play with cleverness and play some small tricks, isn't this the strength of Fa cultivation?" What I really want to cultivate is the way to become an immortal, so why bother with being pure or impure? β
"......" Wei Wuyi sighed, looking at her with complicated eyes, "You've learned to think for yourself, it's good." β
What is the difference between sword cultivation and law cultivation? When it comes to exercises, everyone asks for immortals, but they are on the same path. It's just that sword cultivation is more pure, only cultivating one sword, not two hearts.
It is this article that does not match Lingyu's own character. As she herself said, in the final analysis, she is seeking the way of immortals, not the way of the sword.
ββ¦β¦ Moreover, the apprentice only has the opportunity for a hundred years, and instead of pursuing the way of the sword with an impure heart, it is better to pursue the path of the immortal with a pure heart. β
Her soft voice drew back the attention of Wei Wuyi, and although her face was calm, there was still an unavoidable sadness. Once, she was twenty-one years old and was a veritable elite disciple, but now she only has a hundred years left to go straight from Qi refining to Jiedan. The difficulty of sword cultivation is seen by everyone in the world, but how can she afford to spend this time? It's what she's missing the most right now.
"Well, just do as you say." Wei Wu pondered for a while, and said, "As for the exercises, the teacher is already a Yuanying monk, and the nine holy scriptures are limited by the rules of the sect and cannot be passed on to you, but there is no problem with the slightly inferior ones." If you want to follow the path of becoming a teacher, it will be even easier. β
Lingyu said: "Master doesn't have to worry about the matter of the exercises for the time being, if there is a need, the disciple will definitely speak." β
Wei Wuyi nodded and said lightly: "There won't be much that the teacher can give you." When you recover your cultivation, you can only change what you want by yourself. β
"I understand." As a Yuanying Cultivator, the current Wei Wuyi can completely provide her with all the needs of the Yudan, but in this case, the meaning of seeking immortals will be lost.
It is a very important threshold on the road to immortals, and when it comes to the Dan period, it is a rule of heaven and earth, and you can really get in touch with that mysterious world. If she relies on others to take this step, her state of mind is always missing.
The teacher preaches and teaches, not arranges a qiΔ.
"As for the restoration of the fΓΉ cultivation, you just have to rest assured." Wei Wuyi suddenly laughed: "I accepted you as an apprentice that day, because the teacher encountered a bottleneck at the threshold of getting a baby, and urgently needed someone as a reference to find the problem, and your physique is exactly what you need." Later, I was able to get married smoothly, and I also have a credit for you. No matter what, the title of this senior sister will definitely be left to you. β
"Huh?" Lingyu was slightly stunned, "Master, are you going to start accepting apprentices?" β
"Naturally, how can there be a real person who doesn't accept apprentices." Wei Wuyi said, "Moreover, within a hundred years, the Cangming Realm is in urgent need of fresh blood in order to get out of trouble, this is not just a matter of our Taibai Sect. (To be continued......)
