Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 581 Notes
Lu Ye looked on in shock, this was the first time he had "entered" the long river of time and space in his spiritual body.

He didn't know how long he had been looking, but suddenly he felt exhausted and knew he couldn't stay here for long.

At the same time, the river water under my feet gradually became fainter and lighter, and was about to disappear.

Suddenly Lu Yexin felt something and looked upstream.

But he could not see the distance, but he sensed that there were four spots of light flashing in the shadows on both sides, which had an inexplicable connection with him.

Although I couldn't "see" that far, I could clearly sense the aura of those light spots around me.

Lu Ye exclaimed, and was about to sense it more carefully when suddenly the world spun around, and his spirit had already escaped from the long river of time and space.

The next moment, the spirit opened its eyes, and the long river of time and space above its sea of ​​consciousness had disappeared.

Only then did Lu Ye realize that his spirit body was tired and sleepy, his soul was exhausted, and he sensed that the magic power in his sea of ​​​​qi was empty.

He hurriedly came out of his meditation and looked at the hourglass on the table. It was clear that he had been in seclusion for only a short while, but it had almost exhausted his magical powers and spiritual consciousness.

Lu Ye was horrified. If he had been able to break free from the river a little later, he would have been seriously injured.

Looking up, he saw that the projection of the gnomon on the sundial mark had moved another large square. Lu Ye slapped his thigh, and there was a "pop" sound.

"Dry……"

"The soul is exhausted, and the magic power is depleted."

"I'm afraid I can't practice anymore tonight."

Lu Ye cursed loudly, but was helpless and hurriedly took pills to replenish his magic power and consciousness.

When he opened his eyes the next morning, he had not practiced all night and had no idea how his body had deteriorated.

Lu Ye looked down and saw a projection of a night-shining pearl in the cave. He was shocked to find that the area below his knees had become empty and completely blurred.

"..."

He wanted to cry but had no tears.

The sundial mark had a greater impact on him day by day. His immortal spirituality made rapid progress through cultivation, and he could easily sense the long river of time and space where the rules of the avenue of time and space evolved.

But this is no longer a good thing for him.

He could instinctively feel himself being pulled by the long river of time and space transformed by the rules of the Great Dao. Every time he practiced the Immortal Spiritual Sutra, the long river would easily manifest itself. And every time the long river appeared, his virtuality phenomenon would become more serious.

But if you don't practice the Immortal Spiritual Sutra.

The sundial mark above his head was no longer an obstruction, and the projection of the sundial needle rotated rapidly, returning to zero in just a moment.

So, for Lu Ye, there is a cliff on the left and a steep cliff on the right.

Practicing the Immortal Spiritual Sutra will lead to chronic death; allowing the sundial mark to be activated will lead to sudden death. It is not a good result no matter how you look at it.

So he could only bite the bullet and continue to practice the Immortal Spirituality Sutra...

Lu Ye sighed for a while, lowered his head and calmed down, preparing to continue practicing the Immortal Spiritual Sutra. At this time, he had no other choice but to try his best to delay the sundial projection from returning to zero.

At this moment, the jade bell on the table rang softly, and the clear voice of Princess Longfu was heard.

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu... I brought you some books and notes from the Dragon Palace..."

"Some of the techniques are relatively complete."

"Take a look, maybe it will be useful..."

Lu Ye smiled bitterly and waved his hand, and the door of the cave opened.

Princess Longfu strode over with red eyes.

She has been busy these days. The West Sea Dragon King of the King Snake Palace has led his troops to the battle, and there are many things in the palace that need her to deal with.

In addition, she also had to devote her energy to finding many classics for Lu Ye, which was really exhausting.

Princess Longfu entered the cave and waved her hand, causing two piles of "jade slip rain" to fall on the stone table.

"In my left hand are many classics from the King Snake Palace. All the books related to the Great Avenue of Time and Space have been sent to me."

"The right hand was collected from the small sects on the affiliated islands near the Western Regions and was also sent here."

Lu Ye didn't hold much hope.

The truth is that he has read too many classics in the past few days, most of which are fragments and not systematic. Occasionally there are relatively complete exercises, but they are not as good as the Immortal Spirituality Sutra.

After all, after the spiritual energy was exhausted, the human race had several civil wars that swept the entire world. The monks fought endlessly, many inheritances were cut off and destroyed, and countless skills and treasures were lost.

Even so, he bowed to Princess Longfu seriously.

"Thank you, Princess..."

"The princess is busy with many things nowadays, so you don't need to worry too much about me."

"Let nature take its course..."

Princess Longfu was a little embarrassed and spoke in a low voice.

“I’m not the only one busy.”

"It's also thanks to the three people who helped me run errands, including the guardian Jianli, the beggar master Baiyi, and the fortune teller, otherwise I wouldn't be able to handle everything."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, just take a look..."

Princess Longfu came and went in a hurry, leaving only a faint fragrance in the cave.

Lu Ye smiled bitterly and continued to practice in seclusion.

This practice lasted until late at night. He swallowed the pill, recovered his breath and rested, then began to read the jade slips one by one.

"It is a fragment, very superficial and of little value."

"This technique is fairly complete, but it is only comparable to the Way of the Sky-Escape Sword. It belongs to the category of combat techniques and does not involve fundamental principles."

"Although Princess Longfu has good intentions, her vision is poor, and the skills she recommended are of little value."

"Even the King Snake Palace, with its rich collection, doesn't have the classics I need. It seems like there's really no hope."

After a while, Lu Ye had flipped through most of the jade slip and felt a little bored.

"Maybe there are some hidden gems out there? We must persevere!" He encouraged himself and continued to flip through the jade slips.

"Hey... this note is interesting."

Lu Ye held a jade slip in his hand and scanned it with his spiritual sense. He found that it did not contain any martial arts techniques, but rather someone's insights and feelings from cultivation, as well as a long series of miscellaneous notes, which were scattered and unsystematic.

He didn't think much of it at first, but after taking a few casual glances, he gradually became interested in looking at it.

Judging from the content of this jade slip, it should have been collected by Princess Longfu from an unknown small family in the Western Regions. The owner of the jade slip calls himself the old man Wuxin, whose origins and cultivation are unknown. The notes in the jade slip record every detail of his cultivation of the Great Dao of Time and Space, and even his personal grievances and experiences.

"Today I entered a state of meditation, neither awake nor awake, when I forgot myself, I seemed to sense the evolution of the rules of the Great Dao of Time and Space, which helped me practice and made rapid progress... I shared this with my fellow disciples, and they all laughed at me for going astray in my practice. Even A-Lian didn't believe me. Fortunately, my fellow disciple Xiao Linzi believed me... There are still people in the sect who are on the same path with me, so I am not alone!"

"I have been practicing recently, and I have been right once or twice out of ten. It turns out that I am right. I can feel the pull of the river of the Great Dao more and more clearly. Unfortunately, A Lian still doesn't believe me. I shared the skills with Xiao Linzi, and he is the only one who believes me."

"I have been secluded for ten years, sharpening my sword. As soon as I came out of seclusion, a strong enemy came up the mountain to challenge me. He sealed the door with one sword, and all the brothers in the sect were defeated. Master couldn't bully the weak, so he was blocked at the door for several days and became a laughing stock among the nearby sects."

"I just thought this person was annoying and arrogant, so I pointed at him and used the newly realized method of exile to banish his magic sword into the cracks in space. The enemy was left with nothing in his hands and fled in panic..."

"I have become a meritorious contributor to the sect. Everyone, including my master, seems to respect me and look up to me... Humph, now that my spiritual awareness is far superior to that of my peers, how do they look at me with strange eyes behind my back? Don't you think I don't know?"

"Alian also believes in me... Xiao Linzi is still so enthusiastic. I will give him all my experience and knowledge of the martial arts without reservation. If you trust others, others will always trust you..."

"It seems that A-Lian hinted to me that she wants to become my Taoist partner. Although I am tempted, this is a critical time for the deduction of the skills, so of course the Great Dao must come first."

"So I went into seclusion again... This time I really understood it, and my cultivation improved by leaps and bounds."

"Ten years later, I came out of seclusion, confident enough to become the best in the sect. Even my master would not be my opponent... And A-Lian, my A-Lian, I will make her the most glorious woman in the sect! She will be the object of admiration and envy of everyone!"

"But A-Lian has become Xiao Linzi's Taoist partner!"

"Xiao Linzi was also designated by the master as the next head!"

"Alian is still a respected female cultivator in the sect, but the man standing next to her is not me..."

"I'll go find A-Lian and ask her if anyone is forcing her. Even if that person is my master or Xiao Linzi, it won't work. I have mastered my magical power now, and I can take her away..."

"As a result, A-Lian said in surprise that she was very happy, and even advised me to stay in the sect and become Xiao Linzi's right-hand man!"

"Huh, is Xiao Linzi worthy of this?"

"I asked her anxiously if she had forgotten our engagement."

"Alian has also changed. She actually looked surprised and denied it... I didn't expect that she was such a vulgar person. I was really blind at the time."

"This...is not fair..."

The notes here are just a boring and clichéd story.

All perspectives are recorded from the perspective of Old Man Wuxin, and he will inevitably glorify himself.

For example, he thought that A-Lian was in love with him and was willing to become his Taoist partner. In Lu Ye's opinion, was there a possibility that A-Lian had always liked Xiao Linzi?

Is it because Xiao Linzi and Old Man Wuxin have a close relationship that A Lian shows a little more kindness towards this strange senior brother?

In addition, Lu Ye discovered this from the many exercises he had collected recently.

There are many time and space related skills. Some are specifically used for killing, such as the Dunkong Sword, which belongs to the category of technique. There are also those that directly point to the origin of the Tao, such as the Immortal Spiritual Sutra, which belongs to the Tao.

Most exercises are not as profound as the Immortal Spiritual Sutra, so many people who practice this way cannot feel the manifestation of the rules of the great way in the long river of time and space throughout their entire lives.

Judging from his notes, Old Man Wuxin is a gifted man, and seems to have deduced the correct path from ordinary exercises. Unfortunately, his notes do not contain any words about his exercises, but only his complaints.

From the second half of the notes, the style of painting suddenly changed and became eerie and terrifying, and Lu Ye was also attracted from here.

"Alian and I met in secret. For some reason, Alian did not tell Xiao Linzi about it. Xiao Linzi was still very warm and sincere to me."

"This time I taught him the technique of retreating for ten years to comprehend the truth. It's just that I deliberately tampered with one point..."

"To practice the Great Dao of Space and Time and observe the long river of the Great Dao, one must watch from a distance and not get close, otherwise one may sink into it and never be able to return to the world again."

"I encountered such a danger before and luckily survived. I wonder if Xiao Linzi will be so lucky?"

"Xiao Linzi said that he wanted to be chosen as the next leader. He felt honored but also under great pressure. He needed to work hard to improve his cultivation. He was very grateful to me..."

"So he also went into seclusion, doubled his training, and often exchanged his gains with me."

"I have to say, Xiao Linzi is a talented person. He cultivates so quickly, even faster than me..."

"If this continues for a few years, I will not even be able to keep my title as the sect's number one."

"One day, just as I expected, Xiao Linzi disappeared in the secret room. He completely disappeared from the world."

"Alian kept looking for me, crying day and night, and she made me upset."

"I haven't been able to rest well recently. Whenever I practice, the long river of time and space descends. I can vaguely sense a ball of light upstream, with the aura of Xiao Linzi. It's as if he lives in the cracks of the shadows of the past, and keeps calling me."

"Alian cried again today. I couldn't help but tell her part of the truth. I told her that Xiao Linzi had gone astray in his practice and was probably lost in the long river of time and space."

"In the evening, A-Lian came... She stayed all night and left in the early morning... I am not clean anymore, and she is not clean either..."

"She said that Xiao Linzi and I practiced the same technique, and that I was the only one in the sect who could save him... This was the price she was willing to pay."

"I thought about it for a long time, and the next morning, I decided to go as well... and return to the long river of time and space on my own initiative."

"I'm not obsessed with A-Lian's body, nor am I constrained by the ridiculous brotherhood. I just want to know what's above the long river of time and space..."

"Is Xiao Linzi alive or dead? Where and in what world is he living? Is it him who summoned me, or is it the devil who is best at tempting people?"

"Why do I often see him when I practice recently? It shows him in a wild place, with animal skins, leading a group of barbarians, and even marrying and having children..."

"Ha, A-Lian will be very sad if she finds out!"

"Xiao Linzi wants to be the leader wherever he goes. How ridiculous!"

"And I am only loyal to the Great Way."

"I have heard the truth in the morning, and I am willing to die in the evening. I will go home..."

Lu Ye looked on in amazement.

It's really explosive that the pseudo love triangle has developed to such a bloody situation.

What follows is a long article about Old Man Wuxin’s speculations about this trip, as well as many of his insights into the avenue of time and space.

According to his own opinion.

He and Xiao Linzi learned the same method and the same origin of the avenue of time and space, so it was very easy for them to have a sense of induction with each other, especially when the long river of time and space was used as the medium. It was even more obvious. He called it the lighthouse mark, that is, he and Xiao Linzi were each other's marking anchor points.

Old Man Wuxin compares the long river of time and space to a river. Things in the future have not happened yet and cannot be seen, but everything in the past is engraved in the river, so he believes that Xiao Linzi must have returned to the past and it is impossible for him to cross time and space to the future.

He had several guesses.

First of all, Xiao Linzi is not dead, he just disappeared from the world. He actually lived in a certain historical fragment, surviving in the upstream "river" and living a complete life.

Secondly, if Xiao Linzi can cultivate the Avenue of Time and Space to its limit, or seek help from external forces, he may be able to return to the real world.

Furthermore, after years of practice and exploration, he learned that there is a "tide" in the long river of time and space. When the tide rises and falls, he can clearly sense Xiao Linzi's aura, and he can also sense the other party's battle and life scenes in this way.

Old Man Wuxin guessed that perhaps he could go upstream along the marked path and meet up with Xiao Linzi - as for how to return to the real world, he had not figured it out yet.
