Born with immortal seed

Chapter 795

"Killing a heartless evil thought can bring such merit. It seems that the Heavenly Dao believes that he will have a fatal destructive power over this world... The distribution of merit is not limited to celestial demons and monsters. As long as you break the rules that have enabled this world to operate until now, you will become a sinner in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao."

Bai Zichen cupped his hands and gathered a pool of primordial energy, which, like tassels on a crown, slid down from his head and onto his shoulders.

Each strand seemed to weigh a ton, pressing down on the wrist slightly.

The power of merit cannot be faked; it is certified by Heaven and Earth, proving that those who die without intention or evil thoughts cannot die again.

The power of this merit is several times greater than the previous one, and it is almost taking shape.

This amount, combined with the previous accumulation, is enough to refine a treasure of merit.

Treasures of merit were common in ancient times, because that was the period when the most races descended to the world.

However, there is a prerequisite: the kill must be performed by a local cultivator in order to receive the bounty from heaven and earth.

No matter how fiercely the three races of the Descendant Realm fight, they can never win the favor of the Heavenly Dao of the Human Realm.

According to records, a successfully crafted treasure of merit is equivalent to a celestial treasure, and depending on the direction of its crafting, it has many other wonderful uses, making it incomparable to ordinary magic treasures.

However, there is a limit to the number of times it can be used, and the merit power is reduced slightly each time it is used.

After several great battles, it will vanish completely and return to the world.

No one can possess the treasure of merit forever.

Bai Zichen has no shortage of magical treasures. In the past, he might have refined a spatial-type Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure to help resist spatial turbulence.

But with the ascension channel of the Jingming Sect, this is no longer a problem, and there is no need for it.

After thinking about it, he realized he didn't really need anything, so he kneaded it into a ball and threw it into the Shaohua Cave.

"What did Wu Xin, who died without any malicious intent, discover before his death, so incoherent and rambling?"

Bai Zichen lowered his head and pondered, thinking that perhaps understanding this point would reveal why Wuxin had such murderous intent towards him.

It's impossible that he would disrupt his cultivation environment just because he trespassed into the overseas immortal abode.

Moreover, judging from his level of shock, being able to achieve the birth and death of the Dao, and the transformation between life and death, seems to be a very remarkable event in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Who is Wuxin Sword Immortal? The fusion is a foregone conclusion. He is hailed as a promising future star of the five human races.

He also comes from a top-tier power, being the junior brother of the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion.

The evil thoughts he unleashed almost all possessed the same level of insight and perception.

The fact that it could make him pale in comparison, and even affect his ability to unleash the Sword Piercing the Universe, speaks volumes about the level of shock it caused.

It should be noted that even Wu Xin, who had witnessed Bai Zichen's Great Dao of Time, had not lost his composure like this.

"From this perspective, my ability to control the Sword Dao of Life and Death is at least comparable to the Great Dao of Time in the Earthly Immortal Realm... But why is it that it doesn't seem to be difficult for me to use, and is much easier than other techniques and supernatural abilities?"

The process of combining these two sword techniques was far from difficult.

They didn't even feel completely stagnant, but rather had the illusion of grinding themselves up with the help of the mysterious holy body.

The mystery is beyond his current ability to unravel.

They could only keep their questions to themselves and wait until they reached the Immortal Realm to find the answers.

"Where do you think you're going? Come here!"

A glint of sword light darted about, trying to conceal its presence and blend into the void, but Bai Zichen reached out and grabbed it.

With his current cultivation level, even if the fifth-order flying sword was unwilling, it was impossible for him to break free and leave.

If the sword spirit doesn't cooperate, it's difficult to even reach the point of being able to forge a natal flying sword, let alone achieve complete control and simultaneous intention and action.

Moreover, the snow-white longsword that had appeared in Wuxin's hand did not intend to leave, and reluctantly fell into his palm.

"You are a rare flying sword of time, and you are destined to shine in my hands... Why don't you quickly recognize me as your master or you will ruin your future!"

Bai Zichen flicked his finger across the sword, causing it to sway back and forth, creating shimmering waves of light.

Sometimes normal, sometimes frozen, alternating between fast and slow.

"Yuan Ying pays respects to the Sword Master, hoping to become the legendary Time Traveler who travels on behalf of Heaven."

The snow-white flying sword hesitated for a moment, then its spirit appeared and bowed deeply.

As a flying sword of time, how could it refuse a cultivator who has already achieved something in the Great Dao of Time?

Moreover, the opponent's level of mastery of the Great Dao can be clearly seen from the exchange just now.

Both cultivate the Azure Emperor's Longevity Sword, but while Wuxin's evil intent appears more powerful, as a time-based flying sword, it's clear who has gone further on the path of time.

Yuan Ying and Tao Jun recited the poem on immortality.

Yuan Ying, a fifth-tier flying sword, was a segment extracted from the River of Time by a powerful being who walked the path of time and sealed into the Springtime Stone.

It took three thousand characters of the Longevity Scripture to be inscribed on the sword, and three thousand years of incense offerings to the God of Time to complete this sword.

When wielding it, there will be slight fluctuations in the true meaning of time, and there is a very small chance of time jumps.

Using this sword to activate any time-related supernatural power will result in varying degrees of amplification.

The so-called "Time Gentleman" of Yuan Ying Sword Spirit is a chariot-driving general under the Heavenly Emperor in the myths and legends of the Immortal Realm. He is named after the long river of time that follows the Heavenly Emperor's chariot.

Over time, it became known as a deity with a formal altar.

Yuan Ying's sword spirit compared himself to this, which was actually a huge act of flattery.

The Heavenly Emperor in the mythology of the Immortal Realm was a being who unified the world, spread the glory of the Immortal Realm to countless other worlds, and created the Dao Court system.

Throughout countless ages, only one of the two Mahayana True Immortals has attained enlightenment.

This metaphor is already the highest level of praise in the realm of mortal immortals.

Unfortunately, Bai Zichen lacked this knowledge, and his flattery was in vain.

"If it can enhance the power of time, then the essence of the Azure Emperor's Longevity Sword will be entrusted to you from now on."

Bai Zichen was pleased with this, otherwise simply having an extra fifth-tier flying sword would have had a limited impact on his own strength.

"Was it the Heartless Sword Immortal who brought you down from the Earthly Immortal Realm?"

He had already asked the Ziwei Xuanlei Sword, and Wuxin did not have such a Yuanying Sword by his side when he was in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Hence, this question.

"That's right. I was originally a flying sword forged by the Great Mountain God, and I didn't have many opportunities to use it. Until one day, the Heartless Sword Immortal came to the God and asked for me. I thought I finally had a chance to shine... But the Heartless Sword Immortal never used me even once. After arriving in this world, he used a forbidden spell to trap me under a magnetic vein underground. The magnetic essence completely repelled all spiritual energy, eliminating any possibility of me escaping."

Yuan Ying, the sword spirit, is a young man dressed in white, who appears somewhat frail and weak.

"It wasn't until an unintentional evil thought found me and brought me out of there that I saw the various sights of the human world for the first time."

"And there's more to the story..."

Everything related to the Heartless Sword Immortal is shrouded in mystery; it's impossible to say whether his intentions are benevolent or malicious.

All I can say is that Bai Zichen needs to put the things he has long planned into practice before ascending to immortality, and he can't wait until he goes to the Earthly Immortal Realm to face these problems.

His connection with the Heartless Sword Immortal is too deep, as can be seen from his battle with the Evil Intention.

From one perspective, this is a good thing, but also a very serious bad thing.

The evil intent knew him inside and out, and had a way to retaliate against every supernatural power it possessed, so it immediately launched a comprehensive suppression.

Otherwise, even if a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator had once reached the Void Refinement realm, they wouldn't have been able to achieve this.

Moreover, it was borrowing the body of the Ghost Lord, which inherently had a huge weakness.

If the Heartless Sword Immortal truly harbors ill will towards him, he will still be subject to others' control after his ascension.

Before understanding the intentions of the Heartless Sword Immortal, we must remain vigilant. We should definitely have as many self-created trump cards as possible, such as Dao Sheng Dao Mi.

Alternatively, the main supernatural powers cannot all come from one side.

Sheathing the Yuan Ying Sword, Bai Zichen formed strange hand seals with his ten fingers, chanted scriptures, and unleashed the Tai Xu Soul-Capturing Chain.

This secret technique was probably left unintentionally in the overseas immortal abode, but unexpectedly it has been used against evil intentions today.

The evil thoughts have vanished, so where can we search for his memories?

Only the Taixu Soul-Capturing Chain can be used to summon incomplete or lost souls, as long as the time of death has not exceeded three days.

A faint sound emanated from the void, like a vast net, making it difficult to find a needle in a haystack within this area.

After a full day and night, the Taixu Soul-Catching Chain finally made a move, but what it caught was only fragments of the Ghost Lord's soul.

Bai Zichen was not giving up and waited another day, but nothing changed.

It seems that the nature of the unintentional evil is special; once it dies, all traces are erased, making it somewhat difficult to communicate with it at the level of a remnant soul.

Under the influence of the Great Void Rebirth Mantra, the remnant soul of the Ghost Lord unleashed a large amount of information without any defenses.

The conversation about the bottleneck in the cultivation of the Ghost Path, about the conversation when unintentional evil thoughts came to visit, and about being possessed by evil thoughts without realizing it.

Most importantly, there's the question of Bai Zhaoqing's whereabouts.

"They actually hid Zhao Qing in the ghost city..."

Bai Zichen swept his spiritual eyes across the hall, revealing a secret chamber.

Bai Zhaoqing lay unconscious on the stone bed, with deep cuts on his wrists and ankles, and blood flowing down the grooves and filling a vat.

From the memories retrieved through the soul search, we can learn that the initial purpose of the evil intention was to lure Bai Zichen through Bai Zhaoqing.

Later, it was discovered that this child had a good bloodline and remarkable talent, which is why he became the subject of the experiment.

The purpose of bloodletting was not to torture Bai Zhaoqing, but to find out the secrets hidden by the Sword Lord of Time through the bloodline of the same origin.

In several scenes, the Ghost Lord saw words like 'descendant of immortals' and 'innate deity'.

He injected a stream of true energy to protect Bai Zhaoqing's life and sent him into the cave to recuperate.

There is no life-threatening crisis, but the main concern is that the loss of essence and blood is too rapid, which may affect the foundation of essence.

Fortunately, in Bai Zichen's cave, the number of high-level spiritual plants is probably unparalleled in the cultivation world.

Later, I'll have Jade Rabbit adjust the medicine carefully to prevent Bai Zhaoqing from suffering any hidden injuries.

He was waiting for his grand-nephew to reach the Nascent Soul stage soon, so that even if he ascended to heaven, he wouldn't have to worry about his uncle's bloodline dying out, his spirit tomb being unattended, or the incense offerings being cut off.

"I, Ma, pay my respects to the Sword Lord, begging you to grant Fengdu a way out... The Lord has been possessed, this matter cannot be blamed on Fengdu, as his actions have gone against his nature!"

The faceless judge stepped forward with a grim expression. The great battle between the Nascent Soul cultivators had severely damaged the Ten Earthly Fengdu, reducing its ghost cultivators by at least 30%.

More importantly, it depends on how the Sword of Time determines responsibility.

Only by attributing everything to unintentional evil thoughts can one extricate oneself from this matter in the Ten Earthly Realms of Fengdu.

Otherwise, without the Nascent Soul stage presiding over Fengdu, its fate would be uncertain, depending on a single thought from the Sword Lord of Time.

"Going against one's conscience is not necessarily true..."

Bai Zichen burst out laughing. The Ghost Lord in the Soul Search memories had indeed never intended to scheme against him.

It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't have the courage.

In fact, the Ghost Lord had a memory of suddenly breaking down and screaming in a frenzy when he was studying the flaws of the Ghost Path alone.

He showed no signs of being a fifth-tier Yin God; he was no different from an ordinary mortal.

He often compared himself to Bai Zichen, saying that he had chosen the wrong path, otherwise his achievements would not have been lower than those of Guangyin Jianjun.

That resentment and jealousy were vented without restraint in private.

"Go and compile a complete record of the ghost cultivation tradition of Fengdu and send it to Rotten Axe Mountain... Do not reveal a single word about evil thoughts to the outside world."

Bai Zichen was too lazy to argue with the remaining people of the Ten Earthly Fengdu, especially the Faceless Judge, with whom he had some past ties.

He left behind a cold, indifferent sentence, then rushed out of Fengdu and flew back to Rotten Axe Mountain on his sword.

The rescue of Bai Zhaoqing this time has sparked a chain of discussions, exposing quite a few problems.

Using evil intentions to bewitch Foundation Establishment disciples traveling outside, they possess the great formation and cannot be blamed.

Even the Ghost Lord was secretly possessed without his knowledge.

Many of the actions they take are thought to be from their own hearts, but in reality, they are changes made imperceptibly.

Disciples like Kuang Shu and Fu Donghai were bewitched, and their daily behavior revealed many problems, but the sect did not pay attention to it.

If a meticulous cultivator were present, they could deduce something from their illogical behavior.

Perhaps out of fear of Kuangshu's status as an elder, or perhaps due to a lack of oversight, the Ghost Lord had received more than ten intelligence reports from Kuangshu in his memories.

Bai Zichen has decided that once he returns to Lankeshan, he will raise the rank of the Law Enforcement Hall again and take preventative measures to reduce many problems.

Another task is to find a way to upgrade the formation of Rotten Axe Mountain to a higher level.

"Thank you, Sword Master, for your great kindness."

The faceless judge bowed deeply in gratitude. After the sword light faded into the distance, he rose and looked back at the desolate plain, his heart filled with sorrow.

In the face of such truly top-tier cultivators, even a quasi-divine level power like the Ten Lands Fengdu appears so fragile.

"Being caught up in it, the battle set Fengdu back over a thousand years... It's unknown when another fifth-tier Yin God will emerge."

……

"Master, this is a longevity peach that I conjured up. After you eat it, it will restore most of your lost lifespan."

With permission granted, Bai Taotao, who had leaped out of the cave, suddenly presented a magnificent longevity peach, its red and white colors distinct, and its flesh plump and full.

The only difference between peaches and fairy fruits is that peaches have veins on their skin, just like those on the human body, making them bright red and eye-catching.

Moreover, it seems to be full of vitality, constantly jumping and undulating.

"Where did these longevity peaches come from?"

After taking the peach, Bai Zichen took a light sniff and it was clearly a product of the Dao of Longevity.

But Bai Taotao is only at the late Nascent Soul stage, how could she become a void creature?

If he truly possessed this supernatural power, he would be able to surpass even a person with an innate spiritual root in human form, despite only having a transformed innate spiritual root.

There are several kinds of longevity peaches in the Immortal Realm, all of which are branches of the Five Virtues Longevity Peach and have amazing longevity-extending effects.

However, if it is to ripen instantly, a peach tree must be sacrificed, allowing the fruit to absorb all its spiritual energy in order to give birth to a peach.
