Chapter 35: Death
From the Demon Abyss to the Shenluo Continent, there is only one teleportation array, which costs a lot of money, and it can only be used with a special token issued by the Holy Alliance, but it is obvious that this is not difficult for the Holy Maiden of the Shenluo family.
Shi Sheng and Xian Qingshuang passed through the guΓ² teleportation array, returned to the Shenluo Continent region, and then went directly to the country beyond the southern corner through the teleportation array of the headquarters of the Shinra Holy Alliance.
The only land passage for the outside world to enter the southern corner is a sea of fire, known as the "Flame Demon Sea", which is famous for its murder, but for Shi Sheng and Xian Qingshuang today, it can be said that there is no threat, and the two of them will soon pass through the Yan Demon Sea, and directly teleport to the new country of the Blue Mountains through the teleportation array in the north of the southern corner.
Shi Sheng didn't want to attract attention, this time he returned to his homeland, which was very low-key, and even Liu Yanji, Xu Tieshan and others were not notified, but just took Xian Qingshuang and rushed back to his hometown, Fufeng Village, Qingluo Mountain.
As the birthplace of the emperor, the status of Fufeng Village in the new country of the Blue Mountains can be said to be like a holy city! There are heavy guards outside the village, and idle people are not allowed to enter! The old appearance of the village is the same as in the past, but the surrounding villages and towns have already been rebuilt and remodeled, and its prosperity is no less than the capital of the king of Beijing!
Shi Sheng stood outside Fufeng Village, his mood was very complicated, the past was all over the place, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Xian Qingshuang said: "Cousin, this is your hometown?" Shi Sheng said: "Yes, here...... It's my hometown. Xian Qingshuang said: "You take me in to have a look." β
Xian Qingshuang always looked cold, indifferent to everything. It is rare to have a little interest in Fufeng Village, Shi Sheng readily agreed, the two avoided the guards, quietly walked into the village, and walked side by side.
After the two toured for a while, Shi Sheng turned his head to look at the purple maple forest outside the village and said, "That forest is called 'Purple Maple Forest'. Planted with purple maple trees. The scenery is extremely beautiful, famous far and near, I often went to the purple maple forest to practice when I was young, and there was a purple source stone in the forest. The origin is extraordinary. β
Speaking of which. Shi Sheng couldn't help but sigh lightly. Said: "That purple source stone is full of sword marks, containing infinite sword intent, which I couldn't comprehend when I was young. Later, when I traveled to other countries, I improved my swordsmanship, and occasionally I thought of those sword marks, but I still found it difficult to comprehend, and only now do I understand the true meaning of those sword marks. β
Xian Qingshuang had vaguely guessed what Shi Sheng was going to say, and couldn't help but be surprised and nervous, Shi Sheng smiled slightly, and said: "Those sword marks are the broken parts of the snow sword sheng, which are probably conceived one after another after my mother left the HRE Continent, and before I had time to pass it on to my cousin, I engraved it on the purple source stone to avoid being lost." β
Xian Qingshuang couldn't help but feel shocked, and even her breath became hot, perfecting the snow sword and sheng flute was her long-standing wish, and now she finally saw hope!
Shi Sheng guessed half right, the sword marks on the purple source stone were indeed left by Xian Qingxue to Xian Qingshuang, but they were not created by Xian Qingxue after leaving the HRE Continent, but she did it on purpose, and only passed on most of the snow sword sheng flute to Xian Qingshuang, and this small part of the snow sword sheng flute was the dowry she left with Shi Sheng to marry Xian Qingshuang.
Long before Shi Sheng was born, Shi Xun and Xian Qingxue and Xian Qingshuang's parents made a marriage between the two little guys and became in-laws.
However, in the eyes of Shi Xun and Xian Qingxue, Xian Qingshuang is still the daughter-in-law they identify, so Xian Qingxue left part of the snow sword and sheng flute to Shi Sheng, and Shi Xun also warned Shi Sheng in the Ten Commandments of the "Taoist Codex" "Don't bear Qingshuang".
These old events, Shi Sheng and Xian Qingshuang have no way of knowing, but by mistake, Shi Sheng finally met Xian Qingshuang, and the dowry left by Xian Qingxue was also handed over to Xian Qingshuang through Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng brought Xian Qingshuang to the Ziyuan Stone, Xian Qingshuang looked at the sword marks on the stone, and was immediately attracted, the mysterious sword intent contained in the sword marks was the swordsmanship she dreamed of!
Xian Qingshuang wanted to wait for on-the-spot enlightenment, but was stopped by Shi Sheng, the purple maple forest is not a safe place, Shi Sheng does not have Xiao Lanyu's skills, he can arrange a powerful formation enchantment, if there is an accident, Xian Qingshuang has to go crazy.
Shi Sheng lifted the Ziyuan Stone with one hand, pulled Xianqingshuang with the other, transported the dragon Xianshu, flew into Wow Peak in a moment, and landed next to the Oh Lake.
Soon Xian Qingshuang was immersed in sword theory, and he completely forgot to comprehend the sword marks, Shi Sheng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I can't imagine that my cousin is such an indifferent person, and there are times when he is eager." β
Isolated from the rest of the world, it is an excellent place of tranquility, and Shi Sheng thought that he was fully prepared, and finally decided to survive the catastrophe in the Wow Peak.
In the past 10,000 years in the Shenluo Continent, countless masters of the Transformation God Realm have survived the death tribulation, only Shenwu Luo, Emperor Wenren, and Shi Xun have succeeded, and the others have failed to survive the tribulation no matter how amazing they were in life.
Ten thousand years of three people, how difficult it is to cross the catastrophe, it is self-evident, so the old legend, as long as you survive the catastrophe, you can enter the realm of immortals and gods, and obtain eternal life, for these legends, Shi Sheng can only report one, he has long known that he can increase his life when he enters the realm of gods, but he is far from immortal Cheng dΓΉ, as far as the characters he knows, the real immortality is probably only the Taiwu Emperor God and Shen Yi, and the others are even the six demigods, they are not immortal, but the life span is very long.
Shen Yi once said that the essence of life is vitality, vitality is not lost, life is endless, every person who enters the realm of God, the way to control the Qi of nature, has changed in essence, can truly do what you want, control by the heart, and no longer pretend to use the power of the stars and other external objects.
What Shi Sheng has to do is to abandon the power of the stars, and even dissipate his true qi, feel from the heart, and resist Qi from the heart, for every warrior who crosses the catastrophe, this is the first step, and it must be done to abandon the complexity of the body, and go through the process of moving from birth to death.
Shi Sheng has lived in nature since he was a child, and this first step into a state of suspended animation was not difficult for him, and soon Shi Sheng stopped breathing, and even his body temperature and breath had disappeared, just like a corpse, without any life.
The first step of crossing the catastrophe is not too difficult, for thousands of years, many people have done it, but unfortunately except for Shenwuluo, Emperor Wenren, and Shi Xun, no one else has been able to do the second step - from death to life, and the result is naturally that the catastrophe failed, and the fake death became real death.
Shi Sheng's body melts into nature, from the heart, as if he sees all the natural Qi, are exuding colorful dazzling brilliance, like flowing water, slipping through his heart, he has never been so close to nature, has never felt the Qi of nature so sincerely, as if all the Qi of nature are a living life, he can hear their breathing, feel their vitality!
Shi Sheng suddenly had an epiphany, this is the true nature of the Qi of Nature! This is the true meaning of nature! What is life? What is death? Existence is life, and dissipation is death! The Qi of nature is constantly transforming, from birth to death, from death to life, activity is life, and cessation is death!
Man lives for a lifetime, the grass grows for an autumn, only becomes life, only becomes constant! The Qi of nature is infinitely changing, never stopping, only following its trend and leading its way, and only keeping its heart in its strength! Only the heart is immortal and all enemies are enemies!
Shi Sheng's body melts into nature, feels nature, observes the inner changes of nature, and comprehends the way of natural operation, so it can dial thousands of catties in four or two, control the big with the small, and guide the power of nature to be used.
At this moment, Shi Sheng, has been completely integrated into nature, as if he himself is a part of nature, with the operation of the laws of nature, and the constant change of life and death, Shi Sheng knows, the biggest test has come, he has understood the way of natural operation, but can not get out of it, can only follow the general trend of natural operation, with the flow, involuntarily, if it continues like this, he and the real death, no difference.
Shi Sheng must be able to control the Tao from the heart, not by the Tao slave heart, how to keep the original heart in the mighty and rushing Dao, without being assimilated by nature, Shi Sheng does not know at all, this is too difficult and too difficult.
Shi Sheng's mind became more and more confused, and little by little he was swallowed and assimilated by nature, and Shi Sheng tried his best to resist, but how could he resist nature? Shi Sheng's efforts and Shi Sheng's struggles seemed so futile, completely unable to stop the devouring of nature.
Even so, with the tenacity of Shi Sheng's character, it is impossible to give up until the last moment, however, it is up to people to make things happen, things are done in the sky, and things are impermanent, not that hard work will definitely be able to succeed, Shi Sheng tried his best, but it was useless after all.
The force of nature is too strong, Shi Sheng's consciousness has almost been devoured, and he has reached the verge of collapse, perhaps it is to return to the light, at the last moment, Shi Sheng's mind is a little sober, and his life flashes in front of him one by one.
At the last moment of his life, Shi Sheng saw Yao Xiang, this is the person he loves and cherishes the most, he wants to be by her side for the rest of his life, and he does his best to protect her and love her, but he is about to die, how can the dead protect the love of his life?
"Ah Xiang...... Ah Xiang ...... I want to protect Ah Xiang...... I can't die here......" this was Shi Sheng's last mutter, "with his heart in mind...... My heart...... My Word...... I said......"
Shi Sheng's mind flashed with a flash of inspiration: "My way! The way of heaven is my way! The way of heaven is my way! I understand! I understand! Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs, and they are for the way of heaven! And my way is the way of non-killing of gods and martial arts, and it is the way of benevolence! Benevolence is born from unkindness, and unkindness exists in benevolence! This is from birth to death, from death to life! Life and death follow each other, and life and death depend on each other!"
"Yes, yes! That's right! I look at the law of heaven and earth, my Tao is the law of heaven and earth, the Tao is born with all things, and the Tao is the original of the heart! Since I was born in heaven and earth, my Tao is the way of heaven! Why should I break away from nature? I coexist with nature!"
The mystery of the Tao is indescribable, Shi Sheng is between life and death, investigating life and death, and finally proving my Tao, beyond the mundane, to the realm of immortals and gods!
Shi Sheng's breath is like a phoenix nirvana, constantly changing, constantly climbing! It seems that his whole person has been sublimated, and he is no longer different from ordinary people!
After Shenwu Luo, Emperor Wenren, and Shi Xun, another god-level powerhouse was finally born in the Shenluo Continent! His name will eventually resound throughout the Shenluo Continent! His name is Shi Sheng! (To be continued......)
