ninety thousand miles

Chapter 668 Swallowing
Wen Guying and Jiang Mei were standing on the sea. In front of them was the murderous aura left by Immortal Yun Yi.

Jiang Mei said: "Immortal Yun Yi has always been friendly to Li Chuan, so there should be nothing wrong."

"I don't need to worry about him." Wen Guying put his hand on the hilt of the sword, looked at the murderous aura across the sea, and said, "I'm thinking about how to get through this murderous aura."

"Don't try." Jiang Mei tried to stop Wen Guying, "In a few days, the disciples who have taken the trial will be out. Don't create any complications before you make sure everything is stable."

"This is a test." Wen Guying said.

"So don't be willful," said Jiang Mei.

"If Immortal Yun Yi doesn't want to be disturbed, there is no need to go through so much trouble." Wen Guying stared at the murderous aura.

The murderous aura was very faint, just like the first snow, floating softly on the sea, almost blending into the moonlight. But as long as you probe your mind a little, you can feel the sharp murderous intent and the silence of the annihilation of all things.

“I once had a dream that lasted for ten thousand years, and in the dream I saw all the scenery in the world.” Wen Gu Ying said.

"I know." Jiang Mei said.

"After waking up, I just felt lonely." Wen Guying said.

"So what?" Jiang Mei asked.

Wen Guying said calmly, "If my goal is just to ascend to immortality, I just need to proceed step by step and accumulate my cultivation... Even some quick methods will not harm my state of mind. I will become the fastest ascending cultivator in the Four Gods Palace since its establishment, or even in the entire Xuanmen."

He said, “But I don’t want to.”

"You chose to take a new path," said Jiang Mei.

“Yes, even if we practice the same skills and use similar techniques, our experiences will be different and the paths we take will be different. During these three years, my cultivation has not improved much, but it is true that I have embarked on a different path from the one in my dream. I want to try the immortal’s murderous intent.” Wen Guying closed his eyes, felt the murderous intent, and stepped into it decisively.

……

"You are still missing a lot of things." said Immortal Yun Yi.

"Is there any way to make up for it?" Li Chuan asked.

"Some can, some... the most important point is that they cannot be made up for." said Immortal Yun Yi.

"What is it?" Li Chuan asked.

"You've had a very smooth journey." said Immortal Yun Yi.

"Then you can give it a try." Li Chuan said.

"What if it fails?" asked Immortal Yun Yi.

"That's a lifetime of gain," said Li Chuan.

"Okay." Immortal Yun Yi sat down again, took out a cup of tea and placed it on the side of the boat. He said, "I received Tian Su's kindness. Before I went astray on the path of Taoism, I encountered a new opportunity in the realm of death. After that, I realized the deeper meaning of life and death. I will repay this kindness with three cups of tea."

He said to Li Chuan, "Sit down and have some tea."

Li Chuan had had some vague guesses before, and now he finally understood why Immortal Yun Yi treated him differently.

He sat down, took the steaming teacup in his hand, and took a sip, as if he had swallowed a ball of icy cold air. He asked, "What kind of tea is this?"

Immortal Yun Yi did not answer him, but said: "If you have anything else to ask, ask now."

"Are you going back to the upper realm?" Li Chuan asked. "It's not time yet." Yun Yixian said.

So Li Chuan asked: "Does it take enough deaths for the evil spirit to subside?"

Immortal Yun Yi replied: "The explosion of the Heart Abyss gave birth to all things in the world."

"I know this, but what next?" Li Chuan asked.

“Similarly, you can regard every catastrophe as a breath of the Heart Abyss. Between one breath and another, many lives are taken away.” said Immortal Yun Yi.

"This..." This was the first time Li Chuan heard such a statement.

Immortal Yun Yi said: "For mortals, cultivators, and immortals, the extremely tragic tribulation is just a breath of the heart abyss."

"Then there is no other way?" Li Chuan said.

"A new avenue, a new avenue at the end of the avenue, and a new avenue, can completely break free from the shackles of the heart and gain true freedom." Yun Yixian said with a cold tone, "When practicing in the mortal world, the grass and trees around you, the mountains and rivers in the distance, all contain endless mysteries. After reaching the upper realm, it seems that everything in the world, all the operating rules, have become clear and easy to control. But at that time, if you want to expand the avenue, where should you seek it?"

"At the end of the road, the immortals struggling to survive can only choose to stare into the abyss of their hearts, trying to find a glimmer of possibility. Countless immortals have fallen because of this."

"What about the ninety thousand miles?" Li Chuan asked.

"Only a few ancient immortals and true immortals have reached there. I have never had the chance to fight with them." said Immortal Yun Yi.

"What about last time, Immortal Weng?" Li Chuan asked.

"That was just a projection." Immortal Yun Yi said, his eyes swept across Li Chuan's face, "Tian Su stared at the Heart Abyss, his body was radiant, and eventually his path declined and he reached a state of death. Of course, with his level of cultivation, he would not die so easily. He died in the end because he chose to die. But..." He looked into the distance, "As strong as Tian Su is, he still cannot break free from the shackles of the Heart Abyss. Who can do it?"

Li Chuan thought of the light, "The gods and demons came from outside the sky. They are not bound by the Heart Abyss, or they were not bound before they came."

He said, "So, the immortal wants to see that light."

"Yes." said Immortal Yun Yi.

Li Chuan drank the tea in the cup. His body felt cold and light. He asked softly, "What was the reason for the sudden separation between immortal and mortal?"

"Gui Hong, Song Fengzi, Hao Tian. An ancient immortal and two true immortals have taken action." Yun Yixian replied, "Their roots are in the mortal world, and they choose to continue to avoid that beam of light."

"That's it." Li Chuan said.

“After all, you have forced him to the point where he has no choice but to give it a try,” said Immortal Yun Yi.

"Chi Lin?" Li Chuan asked.

"Yes." said Immortal Yun Yi.

Li Chuan noticed that Immortal Yun Yi was looking in the direction of Luoxia Secret Realm, so he asked, "Will anyone get Immortal Yingfeng's inheritance?"

"You should worry about what they will become after they leave the secret realm." Immortal Yun Yi said. He retracted his gaze and said, "I will take action once. After that, I will return to the upper realm. If you can reach the upper realm, my promise to you will remain unchanged."

"Thank you, Immortal." Li Chuan said.

"Take another look at the Luoxia Secret Realm. How much you can understand depends on your luck." said the Immortal Yun Yi.

Li Chuan immediately focused his attention again. The moonlight floated into his eyes lightly, and his body felt very light, as if he was in a dream. As the sea and the sky connected, the secret realm of sunset unfolded in his vision.
