Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

Before Shixin could say anything, the short sword in the other party's hand was already stabbing towards Shixin's heart.

However, for Shixin, who had maxed out her defense, this sneak attack was nothing.

Not to mention that Shixin had already prepared herself, expecting the other party to suddenly attack her.

The dagger stabbed into Shixin's protective golden light.

Shixin lowered her head to look, and then looked at the woman in front of her.

This woman did indeed resemble Xu Ming somewhat. If there were no accidents, Xu Ming and this woman should really be mother and son.

The reason why Shixin thought so was because some cultivators did not reside in other people's bodies, but rather they had their own bodies.

It was just that in order to cultivate soul techniques, they devoured the souls of others, creating the illusion of residing in someone else's body.

Shixin raised her hand and slapped towards Chen Suya's body.

Chen Suya quickly dodged.

Shixin's palm shattered the wooden door into pieces.

"Oh my, oh my, Master's strike is really ruthless. Is Master not afraid of killing me? Then my son will not let you go."

Chen Suya's lips curled up, and she twirled the dagger in her hand again and again.

"But girl, you are really good-looking. How about this? Why don't you return to secular life and become my son's wife? What do you think?"

"Benefactress, please don't joke like that. Moreover, you are not Benefactor Xu's mother."

Shixin shook her head and continued, "Furthermore, Benefactor Xu's request to me is to not let Madam Chen's life be in danger. A little injury is unavoidable. Benefactor Xu will not blame me."

"That son of mine, alas..." Chen Suya sighed, "I'm actually quite heartbroken. My own precious son, but in the end, my precious son doesn't recognize me and wants to kill me instead. Do you know how sad I am?"

Shixin had never seen such a thick-skinned person: "Please stop pretending to be Madam Xu. You are only insulting Madam Xu by doing this. Although I have not interacted with Madam Xu, I believe that a mother who can teach Xu Ming to be so outstanding must be very excellent."

"Thank you for the compliment~ I also think my son is very amazing~"

In the next instant, Chen Suya disappeared into the darkness.

Shixin tilted her head, barely dodging Chen Suya's attack.

Shixin formed a hand seal and pointed her finger at Chen Suya's body.

Golden light emerged. Even though Chen Suya blocked Shixin's attack with her dagger, the golden Buddhist light had already penetrated Chen Suya's body.

Chen Suya flew backwards, scraping across the courtyard for more than ten meters before stopping, blood溢出溢出 flowing from the corner of her mouth.

"The Buddhist Split Soul Finger." Chen Suya wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked at the female monk in front of her with admiration, "I didn't expect you to be able to comprehend this at such a young age. Not simple, not simple. That old monk Yuanzhi must be very happy to have received a little disciple like you, right? There is someone to inherit his mantle."

Shixin put her palms together: "Benefactress, do you know my master?"

"Heh heh heh heh..." Chen Suya laughed, "Know? How could I not know him? When your master sees me, he even has to call me 'Sister'~"

Shixin shook her head, not believing the other party's nonsense, because her master was originally an orphan, where would he get a sister: "If Benefactress can leave Madam Chen's body and return to the Buddhist sect with me, I will spare Benefactress's life. We monks never tell lies."

Chen Suya spread her hands: "You little monk, I've already said it, I am Chen Suya, Chen Suya is me. Xu Ming is also my son. How can I separate my soul and leave? If I leave, Ming'er will lose his mother."

"Benefactress is still unrepentant."

Behind Shixin, Buddhist light bloomed, and golden Buddhist hands appeared.

At the same time, golden lotuses bloomed on the ground.

The entire courtyard seemed like a pure land of ultimate bliss, and Shixin was like the master of this world.

In fact, Xu Ming really misunderstood Shixin.

Shixin didn't only know defensive spells.

On the contrary, Shixin knew all the spells of Leiming Temple.

Among them, the spells used to kill enemies were the most proficient.

Otherwise, how could the abbot of Leiming Temple let such a simple disciple wander in this complex world?

But the reason why Shixin didn't use those offensive techniques was firstly because she didn't like them, and secondly because Shixin couldn't grasp the strength well, and she was very afraid that if she made a mistake, she would directly "save" the other party.

Now it was different.

The other party was someone who had died long ago.

She was just occupying the magpie's nest.

In Shixin's view, death was death, and her Buddhist Dharma could save these ghosts and let them re-enter reincarnation.

It's just that the process may be a little violent.

And the spells that Shixin used were all aimed at attacking the soul.

Although it would also have some impact on the physical body, no matter what, it would not pose a fatal danger to the physical body.

"Amitabha."

Shixin put her palms together and slapped forward, and a huge Buddhist hand covered Chen Suya.

Chen Suya frowned.

The other party's spells were indeed very troublesome.

Buddhism itself was very restraining to her, not to mention that her current realm was extremely low, and the other party's realm quality was very high, which made it even more troublesome.

"Boom!"

Shixin's golden Buddhist palm covered the ground.

Although the momentum was fierce, in reality, not a single blade of grass or tree was destroyed on the ground.

But the more this was the case, the more Chen Suya felt uneasy.

Because the more this was the case, the more it showed that the other party's control over soul techniques was higher. Only with higher control over soul techniques would the attack completely target the soul without harming others.

This female monk was indeed very talented.

"Eh?"

Just as Chen Suya dodged this palm, Chen Suya looked at the ground and felt that she had stepped on something bad.

Sure enough, on the muddy ground of the courtyard, a seed was sprouting.

Golden vines emerged from the ground, spreading at an extremely fast speed, binding Chen Suya's body.

Immediately afterwards, these golden lotus vines gradually disappeared and became hidden.

"Amitabha, now, Benefactress will definitely not be able to escape."

Only after her spell was successful did Shixin completely breathe a sigh of relief.

Just now, Shixin's attack was only to force the other party to step on the seed that Xu Ming had buried.

The reason why Shixin was able to calculate that the other party would step on that seed was because the courtyard was covered with golden lotuses, and the Buddhist charm emitted by these golden lotuses made the other party not dare to step on them. Shixin deliberately left some open space.

If the other party didn't step on it this time, then Shixin would continue to force her.

There would always be a time when she stepped on it.

Facts proved that the other party's luck was not good, and she guessed the buried fruit in one go.

"A little interesting."

Chen Suya nodded, looked at Shixin, and praised.

"If I guessed correctly, that thing just now is your Buddhist causal vine, right?"

"That's right." Shixin nodded.

The effect of the causal vine was to completely bind the other party's soul and body.

Although her soul technique targeted the soul and caused very little damage to the physical body, if at a critical moment, she struck with her palm and the other party turned out Madam Chen's soul, then Madam Chen would also be affected.

With Madam Chen's ordinary soul strength, she might not be able to withstand it.

Now she had no worries at all.

"Alas..." Chen Suya shook her head, "I have already said it, I am Chen Suya, Chen Suya is me, why don't you believe me?"

Shixin sighed softly: "Benefactress is still unrepentant."

After saying this, Shixin didn't want to waste any more words with the other party.

A golden lotus appeared under Shixin.

Shixin sat cross-legged on the golden lotus, holy like a female Buddha.

The golden Buddhist light turned into eighteen golden Arhats, surrounding Chen Suya.

Chen Suya's body was light and ghostly, dodging the attacks of the eighteen golden Arhats again and again, and destroying the golden Arhats with the black spiritual power long sword in her hand.

Shixin formed a hand seal.

A magic circle appeared under Chen Suya's feet.

Chen Suya raised her foot and stomped hard on the ground, and the magic circle shattered instantly.

"Amitabha." Shixin chanted a Buddhist chant.

Four golden dragons pounced towards Chen Suya.

These four golden dragons grabbed Chen Suya's limbs and pressed her tightly to the ground.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shixin once again cast one spell after another.

The golden lotuses turned into petals and scattered, and then continued to condense, turning into chains, binding Chen Suya's hands and feet.

At this time, Chen Suya was completely unable to move.

Shixin slowly fell from the air and walked to Chen Suya's front, raising her hand high.

The monk's robe slid across Shixin's arm, and Shixin's fair arm was exposed, glowing with the bright moonlight.

In Shixin's hand, a golden long sword was constantly condensing.

Shixin looked at Chen Suya calmly.

Even at this time, Shixin still wanted to give Chen Suya another chance: "If Benefactress repents, you can return to Leiming Temple with me. We will definitely save Benefactress well. Otherwise, Benefactress will be very painful."

Although both are salvation, there is a big difference between voluntarily being saved by scriptures and being violently saved by Shixin.

Not to mention that the latter will be very painful, like cutting flesh and digging out the heart, and there is even the risk of the soul being broken and unable to reincarnate.

“Heh heh heh, little girl, you really are kind-hearted. The more you are like this, the more I hope you become my daughter-in-law.”

As she spoke, Chen Suya's figure gradually dissipated.

Chen Suya had clearly been trapped just now, but she escaped in an instant.

Chen Suya stood in front of Shixin.

The black energy around Chen Suya's body continued to condense, and that ominous feeling made Xu Ming frown.

“Little girl, you have to be careful, okay? Don't blame me if you die.”

In an instant, behind Chen Suya, a huge black dragon appeared.

This black dragon opened its scarlet eyes.

Upon closer inspection, Shixin saw that this black dragon had first become a black tiger for a hundred years, then a nine-tailed fox, then a black Xuanwu, and even finally, turned into Xu Ming's appearance.

“The Great Dao encompasses myriad forms. You see, what you see is not necessarily the essence.” Chen Suya's lips curled up. “I'll give this sentence to you, little girl~”

As she finished speaking, Chen Suya reached out and pointed in Shixin's direction. A stream of black energy suddenly pounced towards Shixin, wanting to engulf her.

At the same time, dazzling light bloomed around Shixin.

The Buddhist light and the black energy collided, with gold and black intermingling and clashing against each other.

Outside the courtyard, Xu Ming's eyes were fixed on the courtyard.

Xu Ming couldn't see what was happening in the courtyard, but from the collision of the Buddhist light and the black energy, it was clear that Shixin was engaged in a fierce battle with the opponent.

Xu Ming really wanted to help Shixin.

But Xu Ming also knew that if he went in now, he would only be a hindrance.

Because the commotion inside the courtyard was too great, even the barrier couldn't completely isolate it, and the entire Xu mansion was constantly shaking.

The people of the Xu mansion, as well as the guards and enshrined experts, were rushing towards Xiaochun Courtyard.

“Ming'er, what happened?”

The first person to arrive at Xiaochun Courtyard was actually Xu Ming's cheap old man—Xu Zheng.

The second person to arrive at the courtyard was Madam Wang.

“The matter is difficult to explain.” Xu Ming shook his head. “Once this matter is over, I will naturally explain it to you, Father.”

After a brief explanation, Xu Ming was in no mood to speak further, only staring at the gate of Xiaochun Courtyard.

At the same time, in the imperial palace, the Martial Emperor, who was in his bedroom, suddenly opened his eyes.

“Your Majesty, what's wrong?” Die Fei, who was lying next to the Martial Emperor, covered her chest with the quilt and sat up.

The Martial Emperor ignored his beloved concubine and directly put on a robe and walked out.

At the Martial Emperor's thought, he slowly floated into the sky above the imperial palace, looking in the direction of the Xu mansion.

At this moment, a courtyard of the Xu mansion was already in a mess.

“How could this be?” The Martial Emperor frowned.

“Ten Envoys!” the Martial Emperor shouted.

“Your Majesty.” In just a breath's time, the ten great envoys of the imperial palace arrived before the Martial Emperor.

“You go to the Xu mansion and take a look. Listen to Xu Ming's orders in everything, and remember not to act rashly! But no matter what, you must protect Xu Ming's safety!”

The Martial Emperor said to the ten great envoys of the imperial palace.

“At any cost! Xu Ming must not be harmed!”

Inside Xiaochun Courtyard, when the black energy and Buddhist light dissipated.

“You…” Shixin looked at Chen Suya, her eyes full of disbelief.

Chen Suya grabbed Shixin's neck and lifted her high, looking at Shixin with a smile: “You see, I told you, I am Xu Ming's mother, but you didn't believe me.”

[Phew, phew, almost didn't finish writing it. Approaching twelve o'clock is really the most exciting, really a race against time. If I was just a little slower, my full attendance bonus would be gone.

I feel like I unleashed all of my little universe, actually writing fifteen hundred words in an average of half an hour. I'm just too awesome!

But this kind of thing really needs to be done less often, it's not good for the heart, a bit overwhelming.]
