Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Dream Within a Dream

Heaven.

Zhou Ming walked on the way to the central hall with a little apprehension and excitement in his heart.

"This time, I was summoned by the Star Fairy, and those words must be said to her no matter what."

"The way of the stars is not for me, the way of the sword is the path I really want to take! Even if I still have to focus on wisdom, even if kendo is only an auxiliary, I must be firm in my own choice!"

Secretly cheering himself up in his heart, Zhou Ming finally walked into the central hall and saw the star fairy sitting on the main seat in the main hall.

"Zhou Ming has seen Lord Nakshatra." Zhou Ming hurriedly saluted respectfully, and was full of respect for this pillar of the human race, the ruler of the Heavenly Court, who was probably the most powerful Gu Immortal in the world.

"Zhou Ming." The Star Fairy nodded and smiled, her voice soft and ethereal, with a bit of unreal dreams, and said, "Among your group of wisdom inheritors, you are not the most talented, but you are the most optimistic one for me, do you know why?"

The inheritors of the Wisdom Dao are to gather talented teenagers from all over the world, select Gu Immortal seeds suitable for cultivating the Wisdom Dao, gather them together, and the Star Fairies will personally select and teach them, striving to cultivate more Wisdom Dao Gu Immortals.

Zhou Ming's group, a total of twelve people, no matter which school they majored in before, after being selected, they all changed to Zhidao.

Just like Zhou Ming, who previously studied under Baiyun Zhenren and practiced the Star Dao, now he has become a major in the Wisdom Dao and a minor in the Star Dao. These two genres are quite compatible, even the Star Fairy, so they are regarded by many Gu Immortals as having great potential.

Could it be that the Star Fairy thinks the same way? Wouldn't I be even less able to talk about changing genres?

Zhou Ming hesitated for a moment, then smiled reluctantly, "I guess it's not because of my cultivation of the Star Dao, right?"

The Star Fairy burst out laughing.

She is a very beautiful woman, she can be described as peerless, and she is noble, almost unmatched in the world, with a smile and a smile, there is a kind of touching beauty, even if Zhou Ming is full of reverence for the star fairy, at this time, when he saw this smile, he immediately looked stupid.

Seeing that the Star Fairy raised her hand and gently grabbed at Zhou Ming, and suddenly, a Gu worm was ingested by her from Zhou Ming's body and flew to the Star Fairy.

"This is your self-created Gu worm, the name is Sword Nian Gu, and you used it to replace the previous Natal Gu." The Star Fairy said in a declarative tone, indicating that she was not asking Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming trembled, and immediately recovered from his obsession with the appearance of the Star Fairy, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "My lord is aware of everything."

It's really normal to be recognized, how can he, a fifth-turn Gu master, hide from Gu Immortals? What's more, what he is facing is still the most powerful Wisdom Dao Gu Immortal in the world.

He originally planned to bring it up in person, but now that he was directly told by the Star Fairy, he also planned to break the jar and stick to his path to the end.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, the words of the Star Fairy made him stunned again.

"That's what I like about you." The Star Fairy smiled kindly: "After you became the Wisdom Dao Inheritor, you have gained enough authority to find that Sword Dao Inheritance in the Heavenly Court Treasury, this is a fateful arrangement, and it is an inevitable result."

"Before you, although the way of the sword has been developed, no one has ever been chosen by that lineage of the sword. Very good, this is very good, that inheritance has been silent in the Heavenly Court for more than ten thousand years, and finally the time has come for it to be born."

As he spoke, the tone of the Star Fairy was filled with emotion and amazement, as if he was remembering something.

She didn't hide her emotions, which was easily captured by Zhou Ming, but Zhou Ming wisely didn't ask questions, and casually inquired about the past of the Star Fairy, he was worried that he would disappear inexplicably before tomorrow.

The star fairy spread out her other hand, and a large mass of qi appeared in her palm. With a light suffix of her hand, the air mass flew back into Zhou Ming's body along with the Sword Nian Gu.

[In view of the general environment,

"This is the complete content of that kendo inheritance, you can take it back and feel it well. The Gu Immortal who left this inheritance is in the way of the sword

Mainly, supplemented by the airway, the sword qi in one hand spans 30,000 miles, and is the best in the world. However, your path of cultivation is mainly based on the path of wisdom and supplemented by the way of the sword, and this lineage can only be used as a reference, and you must not learn from it completely."

"Yes." Zhou Ming hurriedly answered, but he was thinking in his heart: The sword qi spans 30,000 miles, such a peerless powerhouse should be famous in history, right? Why have I never heard of it?

Maybe it's because your own level is too low? Zhou Ming laughed at himself, after all, he was only a fifth-turn Gu master, even if it was because of his master, he knew a lot about the Gu Immortal World, after all, there were different immortals, and it was normal to not be able to know more.

"After becoming an immortal, I will find out what the origin of that strong man is. Since I have inherited his mantle, I am certainly obligated to carry it forward and not to be forgotten by the world." Zhou Ming thought so.

"Alright, you stand down." The Star Fairy gave an order to expel guests, and after that, her figure turned into starlight and disappeared, and in the empty hall, only Zhou Ming was left alone and isolated.

The person in charge of the dignified Heavenly Court just summoned a five-turn Gu Master, so naturally it was impossible for him to appear in his true body, and what appeared in front of Zhou Ming from the beginning was just a wisp of the mind of the Star Fairy.

Although his eyes were empty, Zhou Ming still saluted respectfully, and then left the central hall and returned to his own sect.

In the days that followed, Zhou Ming studied the sword inheritance while perfecting his Gu worm, constantly getting closer to the Tribulation and Ascension to Immortals.

In that inheritance, it is recorded that the sword path power is mainly based on the sword path, supplemented by the qi path, and the natal Gu is the sword qi immortal Gu created by him himself, and the sword qi spanning 30,000 miles is not a metaphor, but a real immortal killing move.

But Zhou Ming can't be like that kendo power, tilting the road towards the way of the sword, his path is mainly based on the way of wisdom, supplemented by the way of the sword, and the three elements of the way of wisdom cultivation are thoughts and feelings, so Zhou Ming created the sword thought Gu, which can produce sword thoughts, and is still a wisdom path Gu worm in essence.

The efficiency of the sword mind is extremely high when thinking about fighting and fighting, and when an ordinary sword mind thinks about how to fight and kill, it can have quite a few, or even more than a dozen star thoughts, empty thoughts, thoughts, and so on.

It can be said that the appearance of Jian Nian Gu is the cornerstone that really and completely laid the foundation for Zhou Ming to take this road, and it is also the confidence for Zhou Ming to dare to summon up the courage to set it as his natal Gu and change the school of cultivation.

But to perfect this path, just Sword Nian Gu was completely insufficient.

So Zhou Ming combined the wisdom path cultivation method passed down by the star fairy, and the sword inheritance, and under his own perception, he successively created the sword intent Gu, the sword love Gu, and the thinking sword Gu, and created the killing trick counting swordsmanship that combines the wisdom and the sword.

When he perfected his swordsmanship and used it against the enemy, he was invincible in the five turns, and it was time for him to cross the catastrophe.

With Zhou Ming's strength and accumulation, everyone who knows him thinks that he is going to cross the catastrophe nine times out of ten, and the probability of failure is extremely low, even he himself thinks so.

But things are always impermanent, even if you are 100% sure of things, they may fail because of accidents, let alone the so-called so-called nine out of ten?

Although he was very relieved about his apprentice, when Zhou Ming crossed the catastrophe, Bai Yun Zhenren still personally supported him.

Seeing him balance the three qi, watching him learn the Dharma Heaven and Earth, watching him personally dissipate the Heaven and Earth Tribulation, watching him use the remaining Heaven and Earth Two Qi to refine into an Immortal Gu.

Just when Bai Yun Zhenren relaxed and was about to go up to mention the difference between Zhou Ming and Immortal, in Zhou Ming's immortal aperture, the Heavenly Tribulation that was born because of refining into an immortal Gu suddenly mutated.

The original silver-scaled horned python tribulation suddenly exploded, turning into a misty fairy light, illuminating the entire immortal blessed land.

In an instant, Zhou Ming's consciousness fell into the abyss of sinking without any resistance.

……

The yellow sand is all over the sky, sometimes dotted with oases, like pearls in the desert, forming independent or united tribes, giving birth to the survival and development of life.

In a small oasis, there is a tribe that is not very large. Under the night sky, in the silence of the tribe, a young boy lives in a dilapidated tent.

The tent was very shabby, with only a tattered blanket.

When the wind blows, the tent howls

Whirring, a chill poured directly in, it was a hole in the corner of the tent, it couldn't stop the invasion of the cool breeze, and it could only be allowed to whistle.

"Damn one, beat me up and tear my tent!" The boy gritted his teeth and muttered to himself with implicit anger.

Then, the teenager lowered his head and examined his injuries.

I saw that he was in tattered clothes, very poor, and his chest and arms were even more blue and purple.

The young man stretched out his hand to caress a few wounds, and there was a feeling of labor pain in his heart.

"I want to be a dignified Ben Jiesun, who came to this world inexplicably, grew up again, and actually fell to the point of being bullied by a group of teenagers. That's enough!"

"This world is enough, people control Gu worms to gain all kinds of weird powers, it's like a nightmare."

"Alas! If it was really just a dream, why haven't I woken up after more than ten years?"

"But tonight is the day when the Holy Land is opened among the Clan. As long as I enter the Holy Land, I will be able to open the void aperture, and then I will be able to practice and master the power of the Gu Master."

"Alas! I hope this power will allow me to get out of here and return to my homeland again!"

When the boy said this, he endured the pain, stood up with bared teeth, and staggered open the curtain of the tent door to the outside world.

Suddenly, a picture of an oasis under the moon came into view.

At night, the full moon hangs high, and the white moonfrost covers the entire oasis.

This oasis is a small one, with a pond in the middle and many tents stationed around it.

The tents come in a variety of colors, ranging from large to small, mostly gray and white, and to a few yellow, gold, and purple.

These colored tents are generally very large, indicating the social status of the tent owner.

The boy glanced around enviously, then turned his head again to glance at his tent.

His tent was small and ugly, with black stains all over the surface and holes in it, and the cool night breeze poured into it.

The young man frowned, the pride in his eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly, "After tonight, I don't have to live in such a shabby dwelling again!"

With that, he lifted his feet and walked towards the center of the tent.

Along the way, from time to time, teenagers came out of their respective tents.

Their expressions were solemn, and they did not dare to say a word.

Tonight is the most important, solemn, and sacred moment in their lives, and according to the customs and traditions of the Western Desert, the young people tonight must be in awe and cherish words like gold.

Anyone who talks too much, or jumps, or cries, loses his grace and manners, and will be severely punished by the clan, and in severe cases, even exiled from the tribe.

Once exiled and expelled, a teenager who is just a mortal is basically a dead end.

The severity of the punishment can be seen.

More and more teenagers are walking towards the center of the oasis, and gradually converge into a stream of people.

On the way, the young Ben Jie Sun naturally ran into the same group of peers who beat him up.

They are tall and big, their physique is beyond the circle of the surrounding teenagers, and the clothes and accessories on their bodies are all noble, indicating that their backgrounds are not bad.

These people also saw the young Ben Jiesun, although they didn't dare to speak, but the vicious and provocative gaze was undoubtedly revealed.

The young Ben Jie Sun snorted coldly, without fear.

As they walked, they exchanged angry eyes and came to the pond in the center of the oasis.

There are dense reeds growing next to the pond, the white reeds are blooming, swaying leisurely in the night breeze, the moonlight is like clear water, and the wild hope Gu is in the reeds, and the shadows are constantly flashing, and there are quite a lot of them.

One by one, teenagers walked into the reeds, and wild hope Gu flew up one by one.

One after another, they opened up their emptiness, each with sorrow and joy. For most mortals, the qualifications of the void are related to their lifetime achievements.

But no matter what the outcome is, no one dares to raise their voices, so that the atmosphere here is always maintained

Hold solemnity and silence.

Even if someone is sad and happy, he must restrain himself, distort his face, let his tears flow silently, and keep silent.

Soon, it was the turn of the teenager Ben Jason.

He couldn't wait, and as soon as he was allowed to run into the reeds.

However, the qualifications he tested were the worst. A Gu Master with Ding and other qualifications can only store two to three percent of the True Yuan in the void, and most Gu Masters can only cultivate in the first turn, and very few can reach the second turn.

A Gu master with this kind of qualification simply has no potential and no future to speak of.

Gu masters with qualifications such as Ding can basically conclude that they will be the bottom of the Gu master world for the rest of their lives.

"How so! How could I be a D-class?" The teenager Ben Jie Sun shouted on the spot.

"Shut up!" The Gu Master of the clan who was monitoring the situation immediately took action, took down the young Benjie Sun Detention and sealed his mouth.

The young Ben Jie Sun struggled hard, and the Gu Master in the clan snorted coldly, raised his palm and cracked fiercely.

The young Ben Jason immediately fell into a coma and fell into darkness.

……

As if it was just a trance, Zhou Ming's consciousness instantly returned.

"What's going on?"

Shocked in his heart, he raised his head and saw the two qi of heaven and earth that had begun to dissipate.

The weather is clear and the Quartet is peaceful.

"The calamity has passed?" Zhou Ming frowned deeply, mobilized the Gu worms in his body, and calculated again and again, but found nothing.

He still remembers that he had just lost consciousness, and then he seemed to sink into a dream, in which he incarnated as Ben Jie Sun, and experienced a dreamy and real life.

Real is really real, every detail, every person in the dream, every encounter is as if a real world has evolved.

Dream is also so dreamy, because according to his calculations, he only lost consciousness for a moment just now, and his body has not even fallen from the sky, and he regained consciousness in an instant.

Is this called "floating like a dream"?

He remembered that he had had a similar dream, in which he had also spent a very long and real life, a life that he could not touch or even imagine in reality, so he could conclude that it was not a simple dream of "thinking about it by day and dreaming by night".

What is different from before is that the dreams he had in the past would quickly disappear after waking up, leaving only a little memory, like a glimpse of light, almost dissipating.

But this time the dream was different, the young man named Ben Jiesun in the dream, his past life also passed in a hurry, but the scene of his enlightenment under the moon was extremely clear, and all the details were deeply imprinted in his mind until now, and he never forgot half of it.

"What does this mean?" Zhou Ming, who couldn't find an answer, was a little confused for a while.
