Embers of Sword

Chapter 384 She is dead

"what?!"

Meng Kejian was shocked and couldn't believe it.

He swung the sword with all his strength, but Xie Zhen actually caught it with his body.

Not only that.

This Xie Zhen actually crushed the sword light containing the Dao realm with his bare hands!
The brilliant blade light exploded and turned into debris all over the sky.

What a horrible body this is?

Is this guy a warrior?
Thinking back to the battle when the Iron Cavalry surrounded and killed at Qixia Mountain, Meng Kejian felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart... This Xie guy looks like a disciple of Dasui Sword Palace, but in fact he is not only practicing swordsmanship, he is also strengthening his body!
This guy's promotion is not just about the Dao!

next moment.

Meng Kejian covered himself with the form of a snake man and slashed down with the sword again!

This time.

A black-shirted god appeared above Xie Xuanyi's head. The god had a majestic look on his face without even getting angry. As his sleeves fluttered, he delivered a punch!
boom!
The fist wind and the sword light collide!
This time, the winner was determined cleanly and easily!
The snake-man's Dharma image and Que Wu's sword intent were shattered by one punch!
"Martial Arts Divine Fetus?!"

Meng Kejian's pupils contracted as he stared at the "majestic god" in black clothes. In recent years, there have been many talented cultivators in Da Chu and Da Li, and there are some who have cultivated into martial arts gods, but Meng Kejian has only seen a martial arts god fetus this perfect and lifelike in all these years, only one, the general!
The "Martial Arts Divine Embryo" that Xie Zhen has condensed at this moment, in terms of majesty and momentum alone, is not inferior to the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth that can only be condensed after reaching the fifth realm of Yin God!

One hundred and eight major orifices.

A raging fire is ignited within the divine fetus of martial arts!

hard to believe.

This is just a cultivator who has just been promoted to Yin God.

"Xie Zhen deliberately led me here!"

Meng Kejian quickly regained his composure. He re-examined the young man in black in front of him: "The Dao has reached a state of condensation, and the body has been reshaped... I'm afraid this kid's cultivation is not inferior to that of a mid-level Yin God!"

Thinking of this, Meng Kejian took a deep breath.

He stretched out a hand, with his five fingers facing inward, and slowly inserted them into his heart.

"..."

Xie Xuanyi narrowed his eyes and did not interrupt Meng Kejian's casting. He just folded his arms, stood several feet away and watched silently.

It is extremely difficult for Yin God to advance to the next level.

However, the practice after reaching the next realm is completely different from the previous ones.

Refining Qi, building foundation, controlling Qi, and cave heaven.

These four realms are all achieved step by step. Even if one has great qualifications, one cannot cross the realm to practice.

But the Yin Shen Realm is no longer bound by these rules.

Practice and attain enlightenment.

The first four realms are about cultivation, and it is only when the Yin Spirit begins that one can attain enlightenment.

Practitioners who comprehend the "Tao Principles" successfully condense their own "Tao Realm" in the Yin Shen Realm, and melt their natal cave into a small world.

therefore.

All the Yin Gods in the initial stage need to do is to stabilize the Dao realm and ensure that the realm will not decline or flow backwards.

Once the natal cave is shattered.

The Yin Shen Dao realm cannot be solidified.

It is also possible to fall back to the cave heaven from the Yin Shen realm.

When one reaches the middle realm of Yin Shen, the world of Dao Realm is completely consolidated and there is no need to consider this problem. At this stage, cultivators can release the "Dao Realm".

Dharmadhatu is a means of manifesting the "Tao realm".

The eleventh realm of Yin God begins.

Practitioners have tamed the Dao Realm to a great extent, and with just a gesture or a movement, they can make the Dao Realm leave the cave and come into the world.

In this state, the Tao follows nature, and one’s own state of mind corresponds to the Tao of heaven and earth.

This is the magical power of the later stage of Yin Shen.

The sixteenth realm begins.

The Yin Shen's supernatural powers are basically tending towards perfection, and the comprehension of the Great Dao has stagnated. Reaching this step is already rare in the Yin Shen realm. After the sixteenth realm, it is called "Yin Shen perfection", because there is nothing to comprehend in the "Dao realm".

The Yin Spirit is perfect, and with just a thought, he brings the world of Tao that he has comprehended to this human world.

only.

They still need to be suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth.

Their "cave world" is not perfect enough and cannot form a world of its own. If one dies in this realm, usually their "cave world" will not be preserved. The Yin Shen Dao realm decays very quickly, and in just a dozen years, the natal cave world condensed during one's lifetime will completely collapse.

If they want to keep the cave world in the human world, they need to overcome the two great tribulations of "questioning their conscience" and "asking for the way".

There is no order of priority for these two great disasters.

If you fail to overcome one calamity, you will never have the chance to become a Yang God in your life.

Only when one has a clear conscience and pursues the truth without any flaws, can one step into the realm of Yang Shen and become a true top figure in this world.

The Yin Spirit is divided into twenty realms.

It sounds crowded and full of obstacles.

But in Xie Xuanyi's eyes, the Yin God actually only has four steps.

Condensing the state of Tao, gathering the Dharma, releasing the Dongtian... and the final "Yang Shen Tribulation".

These four steps correspond to the initial stage, the middle stage, the final stage, and perfection.

Those "pseudo-venerables" who completed their promotion by taking elixirs can only remain in the initial stage for the rest of their lives, because from the moment they took the elixir, they are destined to never be able to condense a Dharma image in their entire lives.

And the geniuses who have practiced hard for many years and comprehended the top-level cave heavens, once promoted, can reach the fourth level or even the fifth level of Yin God.

These people have a very deep understanding of the "Tao realm".

Once the transformation of the natal cave is completed, one can quickly condense the Dharma image and enter the middle realm of Yin God!

For example, the "Taoist Chihun" whom Xie Xuanyi killed in southern Xinjiang, if he were promoted to Yin God, within a year at most, Taoist Chihun would be able to condense the "Avici Cave Heaven" into a Dharma image and be promoted to the middle realm of Yin God... This realm can stop those pseudo-venerables for a lifetime!

As for Xie Xuanyi.

Xie Xuanyi was promoted to Yin God in his previous life. After breaking through the realm, he immediately reached the peak of the fifth realm. After seclusion for more than ten days, he condensed his own Dharma image.

This life is even more exaggerated.

He had just been promoted to a Yin God, and in less than an hour, he had already shown signs of the condensation of his "Dharma Image".

Because of living a new life.

Xie Xuanyi was extremely familiar with every step of the Yin Shen Realm practice.

After his promotion, he used his mind to manipulate the Dao Realm of Destruction and the Dao Realm of Life to blend and weave together, and actively entangled himself with the martial arts divine fetus...

Every time he took a step forward, it was equivalent to directly reaching the fifth level of perfection!
past life.

His Dharma image is shaped around his natal flying sword [Chronic Illness].

This life.

His Dharma image is the martial arts divine embryo that he created himself!

This is why Xie Xuanyi was not in a hurry to take action and waited patiently for Meng Kejian to perform his magic.

For myself, after the promotion.

There is no suspense in this battle.

The greatest significance of this battle is to "test" the results of the breakthrough!
Xie Xuanyi wanted to see what kind of combat power his physical body could unleash with the blessing of the martial arts fetus.

Where will this belated promotion take me?
"Boom."

After a few breaths, a dull thunder exploded in the sky.

Xie Xuanyi narrowed his eyes, raised his head, and looked at the magic that Meng Kejian used blood to perform... Neither the Wudao nor the Xuehangong could cause the thunder phenomenon. If I guessed correctly, the "strange change" at the top of the sky at this moment should not come from Meng Kejian's Dao realm.

The thunder in the sky is rumbling, and it has the power to subdue people.

"Is this... Chen Chong's 'Tao'?"

Xie Xuanyi raised his eyebrows.

"Exactly."

Meng Kejian pulled out his bloody palm, lightning flashed in the blood, and his whole face changed.

The snake-man Dharma image has wings growing out of its back.

Thunders from the sky intertwined, and the entire world was suppressed by the might of thunder!
Meng Kejian wiped the Wu sword with his palm.

The frost and snow on the long sword were cleared away inch by inch, and were replaced by pieces of exploding and shattering green lightning!
"Thank you, Zhen. This 'Thunder Dao Intention' given by the great general should have been used for my contemplation in order to advance to the later stage of Yin God."

"Today... you should feel honored to be used to kill me." Meng Kejian said calmly, "You did not die under my sword, but under the sword of the general."

He raised his long knife.

The green and brilliant lightning filled the whole [Qu Wu].

The next moment.

Murderous intent!
An area of a hundred feet in radius was filled with thunder!

……

……

Deng Baiyi held Miyun in his arms and flew through the mountains and forests with the blessing of talismans.

Taoyuan is now in chaos!

Although Xie Zhen killed all the followers of Yu Camp with Luo Ye, judging from Meng Kejian's style of doing things, he probably ordered the Yuanzhou cavalry to surround the Yuanguang Temple before setting out!
In addition to Meng Kejian, there is also a Du Yunzhong in Yuanzhou.

of course.

The most terrifying... is the scholar in blue who set up the Drunken Immortal Wine drinking party at the exit of Qixia Mountain.

Deng Baiyi took a deep breath and put these distracting thoughts behind her.

She glanced down at her arms and asked with concern, "Miyun, are you okay?"

"Sister Bai Yi..."

"I am... fine..."

Although he said so, Miyun's voice was very weak.

Oddly enough, watching Xie Zhen's promotion actually caused the law of cause and effect in his heart to react actively!

Since then, Miyun's body temperature has risen rapidly. At this moment, he has become like a small furnace, and his whole body is emitting bursts of heat. He tried hard to force a smile and said in a hoarse voice: "Misfortunes often lie behind blessings... Blessings often lie behind misfortunes..."

"I have a feeling... this calamity won't last too long..."

Who knows?

Deng Baiyi didn't say anything about this comfort, but just sighed softly in her heart.

She gritted her teeth and rushed towards the place where Zheng Fengsheng was buried.

The dead leaves are fluttering and the fallen leaves are like water.

Deng Baiyi was running very fast, and it only took her a cup of tea to reach the finish line.

As she wished, she saw the wooden tablets all over the mountains.

I also saw the young man kneeling alone in front of the wooden tablet.

But my heart still skipped a beat.

Because there was more than one person on the hill at this moment.

Deng Baiyi saw the figure he least wanted to see. It was a young scholar in a blue robe, without any armor. He was holding a green bamboo gourd and sitting casually on the wet grass. Next to him, there was a burly man eight feet tall standing respectfully. Even without the heavy blue armor, he still exuded a terrifying aura.

Not far away, at the other end of the hill, there was a portal that was burning with flames and was slowly closing.

obviously.

Meng Kejian gave the address of Taoyuan to Chen Chong.

What really shocked Deng Baiyi was that... she did not feel the burning breath of the formation talisman from the teleportation portal.

No wonder Chen Chong is so fast.

He did not rely on talismans at all, but crossed the portal purely with his physical body!

Crossing the void with the flesh...

This is almost something that only the Yang God can do.

Deng Baiyi didn’t know how many people in the world who were in the Yin God realm could do this. Perhaps Master Tang could do it, but at most, there would definitely not be more than one person who could do it!
"Miss Bai Yi, we meet again."

Chen Chong shook his wine gourd and spoke in a gentle voice, greeting from afar.

His voice was gentle though.

But in Deng Baiyi's heart, there was an unspeakable despair and depression.

She stopped immediately.

"Do you know?"

The young man standing next to the wooden tablet frowned.

Just a moment ago, a door suddenly opened on the top of a hill dozens of feet away, and the blue-robed scholar wearing a wine gourd walked out, sat on the grass with his servants, and tried to chat with him.

The scholar in blue wanted to ask his name and why he was worshipping this wooden tablet here.

Chu Guo was not in the mood to answer.

So he didn't answer.

But the scholar in blue robes did not feel angry, nor did he urge anyone. He just sat on the ground, drinking silently, as if he wanted to stay there until he was willing to answer.

"We only met once, so we can be considered friends."

The scholar in blue robe said this calmly, and then paused for a few breaths.

He smiled and said, "Since we've had a drink together, we should be considered friends, right?"

"You are not friends."

Chu Guo glanced at Deng Baiyi, then looked at the scholar in blue, and said calmly: "Friends won't be like this... There is no respect, only fear. Miss Deng clearly doesn't want to see you."

"Maybe there's some misunderstanding between us."

Chen Chong said calmly: "She thinks I want to kill her... Actually, I'm not interested in her."

Qixia Mountain killing game.

There was only one person Chen Chong wanted to kill from the beginning to the end.

Miyun.

He actually left a chance for Xie Zhen.

Nalan Qiutong’s persuasion to surrender was the first time, and the Drunken Immortal Wine exported from Qixia Mountain was the second time.

"Your last name is Chen?"

Chu Guo was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

"You are quite smart, you don't look like an ordinary kid."

Chen Chong smiled and said, "I heard that this small village is called 'Taoyuan' and many villagers are refugees forced by bandits. Did you know about the recent banditry in Pingzhi City?"

Chu Guo's pupils contracted.

Chen Chong continued to laugh and said, "It seems that you escaped from Pingzhi City. Do you know this person?"

The scholar in blue robes waved his sleeves gently.

The Yuan force burned, and a picture was pieced together in an instant.

This painting is very simple.

A woman in purple was fighting with a sword, she was surrounded by bandits——

Just when Pingzhi City was breached by bandits, the book tower's secret agent Pelican arrived on a sword and fought with the bandits.

"What's up with her?!"

Chu Guo's breathing was no longer steady, and his entire body became agitated.

Chen Chong saw every detail of the young man's reaction.

On that day when Pingzhi City was breached, the unexpected appearance of the library's hidden agent Pelican was a mystery that the Hook and Clamp Master had yet to solve.

Chen Chong was also very curious.

For what purpose did the library send out the "Pelican" to die voluntarily?
The hook and clamp master deduced.

The pelican died to protect a very important person.

No matter how you check.

It seems that some clues are missing.

It is said that there is no place to be found if you step through iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Chen Chong looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly understood many interesting things.

He waved his sleeves to take away the scroll, smiled, and said, "She is dead."
