Volume 1: Zhao Shanhe Chapter 98 Condensing Dao Heart
Countless sword energies poured out from Ji Yuan's eyebrows, converging into an astonishingly powerful river, rushing in like a flood bursting its banks.
With so much sword energy gathered together, no one had ever seen such a scene before. They subconsciously took a step back and were secretly frightened.
Seeing this scene, Shen Lang also immediately withdrew his fist, then brought up afterimages with his hands, and within one or two breaths, he quickly formed more than ten magic seals.
When the last seal was completed, the seven-story magic tower above his head suddenly glowed brightly, and endless demonic energy and light fell down, completely protecting him within it.
But in the blink of an eye, the river of sword energy swept through in a mighty manner, and whether it was demonic energy or ghost energy, it was all washed away.
Even the seven-story magic tower, which was intact and of good quality, could not last more than ten breaths in the river of sword energy, and was soon sucked into the "river" with a dimmed spirit.
Not long after, the sword energy river rose into the sky, rushing through the sky, and finally rolled back into Ji Yuan's eyebrows.
A flash of light between his eyebrows slowly closed like a door, and dozens or hundreds of remaining sword energies were cheering around him, unwilling to dissipate for a long time.
When everything gradually calmed down, everyone recovered from the shocking scene as if they were waking up from a dream, but the fear in their eyes could not dissipate for a long time.
Not only have they seen such a vast and mysterious scene, they have never even heard of it.
That amount of sword energy is enough to be gathered into a river. I am afraid that even a three-level sword cultivator would not be able to possess it, right?
Song He subconsciously glanced at his wife beside him. During his lifetime, he was a sword cultivator in the middle stage of the Ming Dao Realm. His killing power was comparable to that of a monk at the peak of the Third Realm, or even worse.
But even so, when Zhou Yuyan was at the peak of her life, she had never had so much and such heavy sword energy!
A seven-story demonic tower that was several inches in size fell at Ji Yuan's feet with a dim spirit. The demonic energy and ghostly light on it had almost been washed away by the previous river of sword energy.
At this time, he coughed violently, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly took a life-saving pill, thus suppressing the horrific injuries in his body.
After a while, Ji Yuan let out a heavy breath and leaned on his senior brother, so as not to fall directly to the ground.
"stop!"
Su Hongzhu screamed and pushed Xu Lin away at all costs, even if it cost her back to resist a sword beam, she still wanted to force her way through.
But she soon stopped, not daring to take another step forward.
At this moment, after the river of sword energy swept past, a crystal-clear white jade flying sword exuding five colors of rays of light stayed motionless between Shen Lang's eyebrows.
This white jade flying sword can instantly pierce his head with just one thrust forward, crushing the three souls and seven souls inside.
"don't want……"
Su Hongzhu turned around and looked at Ji Yuan. There was no charm left on her face, only endless pleading.
If she hadn't died, her body would have turned into a red and pink skeleton, and her face would have been filled with tears.
Ji Yuan saw the pleading look on the other person's face, and even wanted to kneel down to him, but he remained unmoved. His eyes only glanced lightly, and then fell back on Shen Lang.
He suddenly remembered what Hui Xin said not long ago, so he subconsciously blurted out: "Is it worth it?"
If he was just suspicious when he just watched the opponent take action, as he released the countless sword energy in the sword energy lake in Zi Mansion, he clearly sensed that the opponent was now exhausted when they collided.
The lamp is dry.
He obviously possesses the peak of the second realm, but he has very little magic power in his body. Even his body that seems to be more powerful than a martial artist, and his soul that is bright and thick, are nothing but rootless duckweeds.
When the effectiveness of the secret method fades away, his body and soul will be like a candle in the wind, and may be completely extinguished at any time. At that time, there will only be one end, which is immediate death.
It is precisely because of this that Shen Lang, who should have already reached the third realm, only has the cultivation level of the first realm. Otherwise, even if he has the magic power of the second realm, a magic weapon is enough to defeat everyone present at the snap of a finger.
Place.
Some people suppressed them all.
And even if we don’t mention the issue of cultivation level, in order to resurrect a woman, he is willing to fall into the devil’s path, and even practice ghost practices to make himself look like a human, a devil, a ghost, and a ghost.
Three hundred years of suffering and torture...
Is it really worth it?
"It is not an easy task to live for more than three hundred years without producing a golden elixir, and without being able to take any miraculous medicine."
Shen Lang laughed bitterly at himself: "The laws of heaven and earth operate. If you want to disobey it, there will be some costs that cannot be avoided."
The torture of demonic and ghost methods is one, the second is that this body is neither fish nor fowl, the third is that one's cultivation cannot make any progress, and even is wasted little by little over the long years.
Even after the final death of the body, the three souls and seven souls will completely disintegrate, and even the real spirit will no longer exist, and there will no longer be the possibility of reincarnation.
This is the price that needs to be paid for operating against the laws of heaven and earth.
But even though he knew all the consequences, Shen Lang still did it, and he has never seen the slightest regret on his face.
"If your master Zhang Zhiya and your fifth senior brother died in vain, you would do what I did."
Shen Lang said this.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan was startled at first, then shook his head decisively: "Even so, I will not be like you."
"Anyone who dares to harm Master and Senior Brother, I will do my best to kill them!"
He said categorically that he would never be like the other party, who would not hesitate to fall into the devil's path afterwards and waste the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in a city to make amends.
"But what if you can't change the facts that are about to happen even if you try your best?"
Shen Lang looked at him calmly: "Then what should you do?"
After the other party finished speaking, Ji Yuan snorted coldly and was about to retort, but he opened his mouth but could only say one word after a while.
Yes, if he is only a monk in the first or second realm, he will naturally have the means to block the danger.
But if a monk at level three or above takes action, it would be difficult for him to even protect himself with his little cultivation. How can he protect his master and senior brother?:
"You are cautious by nature, and you try to think things through as much as possible. You will never do anything if you are not 70% or 80% sure."
Shen Lang sighed: "But Qianyu City is too small after all. Even if you are extremely talented and blessed, your ability to reach the second level in the future is already your limit."
"Even if you are still and thoughtful and walk out of Qianyu City after the second realm, in this world, even the third realm monks can only be called masters of one side, and even higher up there are immortals who can truly enjoy freedom.
"
"If you don't climb the highest mountain, how can you say you can protect them?"
Ji Yuan frowned. Although what the other party said was extreme, it was not completely unreasonable, even though the truth was somewhat extreme.
Does what Shen Lang said make sense?
There is indeed truth, although it is a bit extreme and extreme, but it cannot be denied.
But if we follow this logic, then everyone in the world has to be in danger and think about how to survive all day long.
After all, unless you climb to the top of the highest mountain, or even stand above the clouds and mist, and become a deity in the world, it will be difficult to even protect yourself.
"This world is a place where the weak will prey on the strong, and disaster will fall from the sky on any given day."
Shen Lang continued: "What should you do when you encounter an irresistible danger that harms the people you care about?"
After saying a few words, he stretched out his hand and pointed at himself, as if to tell Ji Yuan that this was the only way.
When a crisis comes, you can't stop it. So what if you go against heaven and earth for the sake of the one you love?
But Ji Yuan instinctively felt that this idea was wrong, but for a moment, he didn't know how to refute it.
Even subconsciously, he began to think about what he would do if his master and senior brother were killed.
Is he going to kill all the murderers with his sword and then feel sad alone, or is he really like Shen Lang, who will do whatever it takes to resurrect his master and senior brother, regardless of other people's lives?
"Master once said that everyone has his or her own destiny, and only life and death can be understood.
, only then can we get a glimpse of the great road.”
Seeing the pain on his junior brother's face, Guo Tao subconsciously blurted out.
But Ji Yuan had a wry smile on his face. If life and death were so easy to look down upon, there wouldn't be so many people seeking immortality and Taoism in the world, and there wouldn't be so many unbearable sufferings.
Even if they are powerful people with incredible powers, how many people can really see through life and death?
There are some world-famous immortal figures who, when the time comes, fail to take the last step and turn around to become evil and harm one party.
"If there is such a day in the future, I will make my state higher before then, and the knife in my hand will become stronger!"
Xu Lin walked over slowly, and then snorted disdainfully, his face full of arrogance: "Even if we both end up dead in the end, I just want one person to have no regrets in his heart!"
Hearing this, Ji Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped something key.
Yes, since some things are bound to happen, what you need to do is to improve your strength as much as possible before it happens and think of solutions instead of giving up on yourself and blaming the cruelty of the world.
And worrying about things that haven't happened yet is just annoying.
Just as Xu Lin said at this moment, even if we both die in the end, we must make sure that we have no regrets!
"What a man with no regrets!"
He shouted lowly, and a smile finally appeared on his pale face.
The previous gloom in my heart was swept away, and although my breath was sluggish, my spirit was exceptionally high.
After understanding this, Ji Yuan's state of mind immediately stabilized again, and the light of his soul, which was already dimmed, became much more solidified silently.
He felt more relaxed than ever before. Xu Lin's words not only cleared away the haze in his heart at the moment, but also solved the confusion he had always had.
Ever since he embarked on the path of spiritual practice, Ji Yuan has had a confusion in his heart.
In the so-called spiritual practice, apart from seeking Taoism and immortality, what else can be left?
Only now did he understand that in addition to pursuing the long road, what is more important in spiritual practice is the "scenery" in front of him.
Instead of worrying about things that may not happen, it is better to take care of the people and things in front of you first, and to worry about the future, it is better to live in the present!
"Since you have seen the future that you cannot change, why do you have to be obsessed with it and deceive yourself and others?"
Shen Lang's eyes flashed and he said calmly.
However, now his words can no longer disturb Ji Yuan's state of mind, because his Taoist heart has been established.
"No more trying to use words to trick me into falling into the devil's path."
He smiled slightly, and there was no confusion in his eyes anymore.
Now that the Taoist heart has been established, it will no longer be shaken by a few words from others. When it comes to the foundation of one's own Tao, it must be stronger than the mountains.
Seeing this scene, Shen Lang no longer tried to hide it. After removing the pretense of calmness on his face, he laughed bitterly at himself.
If there were no Guo Tao and Xu Lin, just the two of them here, Shen Lang would have the confidence to use words to trick Ji Yuan into falling into the devil's path, thereby changing the current situation.
In fact, he almost succeeded before, but he didn't expect that the few words spoken by the two people not only made Ji Yuan get rid of the temptation, but also successfully condensed a Taoist heart.
For practitioners, Dharma power is easy to cultivate, but Dao heart is rare. Only by clearly understanding one's own original heart can one condense a heart towards Dao.
It seems easy to say, but in fact it is extremely difficult to do. I don’t know how many monks in the Three Realms have practiced hard for decades and walked in the world of mortals. In the end, they not only failed to realize it, but even fell into it.
Extricate yourself.
After a while, Shen Lang smiled miserably, knowing that he had completely failed and there was no chance of a comeback.
Now that the effectiveness of the secret technique has expired, his body and soul are like candles in the wind, which may be blown out by a gust of wind at any time. There is not even a trace of magic power in his body, and he is truly completely exhausted.
Even if there was no external interference, he probably wouldn't survive today and would only be able to survive for an hour or two at most.
Under such circumstances, even if the three-hundred-year plan was ready, he would no longer be able to "bring Su Hongzhu back to life" and become a human again.

"Is there anything else you want to say?"
Ji Yuan thought, and the white jade flying sword stopped in the air moved forward and pierced the opponent's eyebrow.
However, there was no more blood to drip from the wound, but instead there were traces of deathly energy floating out.
If it weren't for the secret methods of demons and ghosts, over three hundred years, even the longevity of a monk in the Third Realm would have turned into a handful of loess.
"don't want!"
Upon hearing this, before Shen Lang could say anything, Su Hongzhu beside him screamed.
She suddenly knelt on the ground, her expression full of pleading. There was no trace of charm and temptation. She did not look like a powerful second-level ghost. Instead, she looked like a delicate woman in an ordinary people's home. @ESSENTIAL\/书馆*First release
Update~~
During her lifetime, Su Hongzhu was indeed just an ordinary woman, who had never seen much of the world and was very delicate by nature.
After transforming into a ghost like a pink skeleton, the reason why she acts without scruples and strikes decisively and ruthlessly is probably because of the demonic aura that envelopes her soul.
Now that the memory has reappeared, this evil spirit has quietly dissipated.
Looking at Su Hongzhu, who was completely different from before, there was no hesitation in Ji Yuan's eyes, and he looked calmly at Shen Lang, who had already accepted his fate.
Although there is reluctance in my heart, since I have made a decision in my heart, I will not waver again. This chapter has been completed!
