That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 317 That Year That Cicada That Sword

After Xu Beiyou surrendered Chi Lianjian in one fell swoop, he unceremoniously absorbed Chi Lian's sword energy and spirit into his body.

Sword Qi is still second, the key is the divine will.

As I said before, Chilian Yijian is the sword with the most spirituality. Although this spirituality is filthy, for Xu Beiyou, it can drink poison to quench thirst.

Now Xu Beiyou has no energy in his body. If he wants to step into the realm of the earthly fairy, he can only start from the cultivation base of the soul, or practice the Weiyang Sword Sutra to a small level, or seek a breakthrough through the divine will of the Twelve Swords of Jianzong.

Gongsun Zhongmou once said that Xu Beiyou's mind is comparable to that of an exiled immortal. If he practiced step by step, he might not be able to practice the Weiyang Sword Sutra to a small degree. However, Xu Beiyou didn't have much time left, so he couldn't afford to wait. Absorb Chi Lian's sword spirit and spirit.

As the so-called seeking wealth and wealth, if he succeeds in one fell swoop, Xu Beiyou can break the deadlock in his current situation.

As long as he sets foot in the realm of the Earth Immortal, Xu Beiyou's lifespan will skyrocket, avoiding the calamity of dying within three years, and he will also be able to forcibly refine the Zidian sword by relying on his higher cultivation than Zhao Tinghu, absorbing Zidian's sword energy and spirit After that, the cultivation base will naturally go up to a higher level.

In this way, he has the qualifications and confidence to enter the game in the next big change in Jiangdu.

However, breaking through the realm of immortality is different from breakthroughs in previous realms. After all, it is the difference between immortals and mortals. From a cultivator to a land immortal, even after Xu Beiyou absorbs Chilian sword energy and spirit, it is a matter of course for Xu Beiyou to become an immortal. It takes a period of time to complete this metamorphosis process. The length of this period of time depends on each person's own situation, ranging from several months to several hours, and cannot be generalized.

In the attic, Xu Beiyou sat cross-legged on the ground, with the extremely fierce Chilian sword placed horizontally in front of him. Although there was not much expression on his face, there was a sense of joy in his heart.

The so-called realm of earth and immortality follows the principle of heaven and earth rising and falling, taking the number of the sun and the moon, using the years and months in the body, and using the time in the middle of the day. Yi, judging the three elements, dividing the four images, judging the five elements, determining the six qi, gathering the seven treasures, ordering the eight trigrams, performing the ninety-five, refining the shape to stay in the world, and gaining longevity, so it is called the earth immortal.

Here, "getting longevity" is also called "little longevity", and only one who has attained the realm of immortality can achieve great longevity.

Since ancient times, what countless monks have been seeking is the great immortality.

A monk who has cultivated into a small immortal is truly worthy of the word "immortal" and has initially "obtained the Tao". At this time, Xu Beiyou is only a short distance away from the realm of the earth fairy, and there is no obstacle. It can achieve the fairyland.

Although he was most afraid of being disturbed when he broke through the realm, at this moment, outside the attic, Qin Mumian and many other experts in the immortal realm were protecting him. Even Zhang Zhaonu, who was number nine in the world, came in person, and it would be difficult to "stop him from becoming enlightened".

Xu Beiyou slowly closed his eyes, and the sea of ​​consciousness in the Zifu on the upper dantian was fully opened, and the spirit escaped from it, blending with the surrounding world. First, he saw himself sitting cross-legged, and finally saw Qin Mumian and others outside the attic, and finally The angle of view is enlarged to the entire sky, and a huge Jiangdu City can be seen.

This is not to see with the naked eye, but to perceive with one's own soul.

Buddhism calls it the eye of the sky and the eye of the Buddha.

Taoists call it the eye of heaven and the eye of law.

Opening the upper dantian was originally the most difficult and time-consuming step in the process of achieving the Earth Immortal Realm, but Xu Beiyou completed this step ahead of schedule, so the speed at which he achieved the Earth Immortal Realm was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Outside the attic, perhaps because of the chaos caused by concern, Zhang Xueyao actually showed a nervous look on her face, staring at the attic tightly without moving her eyes away.

Qin Mumian was much calmer. He stopped looking at the attic and looked up at the gradually dimming sunset in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

The White Jade Dragon King still kept his palms folded, smiling and chanting Buddha's name.

Streams converge into rivers, rivers converge into rivers, and great rivers rush across the world, cross tidal flats, break quicksands, and finally rush out to sea.

Hundreds of rivers flow into the sea in the east and never return to the west.

Just like the situation in Xu Beiyou's body at this time.

First, strands of qi emerge from the sea of ​​qi, and then the strands of qi travel along the meridians of the whole body, and begin to grow continuously, like a trickle, like a river, and finally rush and flow, pouring into the qi palace of the middle dantian in one fell swoop.

At this moment, Xu Beiyou only felt comfortable all over his body, connected as one from bottom to top, without any sense of stagnation.

With a thought in his heart, he pointed a little, and a small egg appeared on his fingertip.

Then the egg breaks and a larva crawls out.

This is the larva of a cicada.

Many people think that the life of cicadas is very short, but it is not true. The eggs of cicadas are laid on trees, and the larvae will not hatch until the next spring and summer. , each cicada needs at least seven to 15 years, or even 20 years of larva time, before it emerges from the ground and then emerges as a cicada.

Xu Beiyou is a cicada. He spent 20 years as a "larvae" in Xiaofangzhai and Danxiazhai in the northwest. Today, he is finally about to break out of the ground and take flight.

Xu Beiyou quietly looked at the cicada on his fingertips, waiting for the golden cicada to shed its shell, become feathered and flap its wings, then he would become an immortal.

He has a special affection for cicadas.

Back then, it was because of a Xia Chan that he saw the birth of Zhu Xian, and at the same time saw the magnificence of another world.

Without that Xia Chan, he might have passed Gongsun Zhongmou.

Xu Beiyou's mind was gradually immersed in the memories of that year.

That year, the wind howled.

The old man sat cross-legged on the cliff, with the wooden box across his knees.

The strong wind from the northwest blew the old man's robes rattling, a little kid came not far from the old man, holding a newly caught summer cicada in his hand.

The old and the young on the cliff had a chat, and then made a "business".

"What's in it?"

"Contains a sword."

"I'm giving you this cicada, can you show me what the sword looks like?"

"A cicada?"

"It's a summer."

"The country's enmity grows old before the snow, and the fairy sword in the box makes a sound at night."

"what?"

"Little guy, watch it!"

As the words fell, the sword box trembled suddenly, first wisps of cyan sword energy seeped out of the sword box, reflecting the old man and the child in a bright green, and then as the old man asked for the sword, the sword box opened wide.

First, the sword energy rushed straight to Xiaohan and shot the bullfighting bull.

Later, a three-foot Qingfeng appeared in the world.

Someone once held this sword and ran across the world.

One cicada covers the whole summer.

A single sword overturned most of the world.

Now, Xu Beiyou already knew the name of that sword, and he also knew who was holding this sword to run amok in the world.

Click, a tiny sound that couldn't be quieter sounded.

There was a gap in the back of the larva on Xu Beiyou's fingertips.

Then the gap became bigger and bigger, first the small sac-shaped wing letters stood out, then the back and forelimbs.

Xu Beiyou opened his eyes, quietly watching the cicada loosen its clothes little by little.

When it broke free from the shackles, it didn't fly away in a hurry, but still hung on the cicada clothes, slowly injecting the blood in the body into the wings, and slowly propped them up.

When the wings turned into a shimmering cicada-winged cloak, it began to steepen its wings, and then flew high.

Finally, let's put our voices out and sing!

Xu Beiyou moved the corner of his mouth and smiled happily.

He is also reborn like this cicada.

This is the realm of the immortals that countless monks yearn for.
