This is what an immortal should be like

Chapter 58 Sword Name Chixuan
Zhuang Lin avoided the spraying dirty blood and walked to the evil cultivator's head with a slightly frown. Looking at the face that was still filled with fear, his heart was somewhat agitated.

This was the first time he fought against a cultivator. Although he had confirmed that the enemy was weak and he was strong, Zhuang Lin did not have enough knowledge of immortal arts after all. He was even more afraid of the possible countermeasures and the escape of his Yuan Ling, so he naturally attacked with great force and did not dare to hold back.

In addition, this time I have more experience than before when I killed monsters.

Therefore, with one sword strike, both the soul and body are destroyed, and all the energy disappears!

But even so, Zhuang Lin's brows did not relax at this moment. Once a cultivator does evil, the harm is self-evident, and what is happening now is a living example!

Zhuang Lin wasn't really afraid that the person in front of him was an important figure in the sect, as he didn't think killing him would bring him trouble.

Not to mention that in the incomplete information of the Dharma lineage, such monsters are hated and treated as rats crossing the street. Even if some of them have backgrounds, they are still not presentable.

After actually getting into the practice of Taoism, Zhuang Lin realized that the so-called soul lamp in previous novels was nonsense.

The purpose of spiritual practice is to achieve completeness of the fundamentals. Leaving a residual soul in the lamp and having an incomplete soul will cut off one's own path of spiritual practice.

As for some kind of magic weapon that can trace back time, even if it exists, it is a kind of treasure and involves changes in the secrets of heaven.

To be considered as such, one must be at least much higher in realm than Zhuang Lin, that is, someone who is at least at the True Person Realm. How could a person of such a cultivation level have anything to do with such a short-sighted evil way on earth?
Moreover, there was the precedent of Lu Jing and himself sensing the sword energy before. Zhuang Lin believed that the sword had cut off all the energy, and any attempt to calculate the heaven's secrets would be nothing but a pool of muddy water that could never be cleared.

His thoughts turned back to him, and Zhuang Lin's brows finally relaxed, and he let out a sigh of relief.

This move was somewhat exciting, but Zhuang Lin did not feel any burden in his heart about killing an evildoer. He was just a man who deserved to die!
Looking at the two corpses more closely, the aura had been extinguished by the sword, and the places where some aura still existed became particularly obvious.

Zhuang Lin hooked his fingers, and two old books like a string of beads floated up and landed in his hands, along with a purse. Apart from that, there was nothing special.

There were only a few beads on the bracelet, but a deeper exploration of the inner atmosphere made Zhuang Lin frown. A casual flip through of the two books revealed a mess of things. Just looking at the pictures on them made him feel weird and extremely disgusting.

He originally wanted to burn it and be done with it, but after some hesitation, Zhuang Lin decided to seal the aura on it with his magic power and keep it for the time being.

Afterwards, Zhuang Lin concentrated his mind and circulated his magic power, pointing his sword at the two corpses.

“Wow~” “Wow~”

Two clusters of flames ignited from the evil cultivator's head and body respectively.

Burn it to avoid dirtying the place.

Afterwards, Zhuang Lin swept his sleeves in the air towards where the demon corpse was hanging in front of the county government office, and all the energy on the corpse dissipated.

When he looked back, the corpse on the ground had turned to ashes in the flames, without even a trace of blood left.

Alas, my ability is still not enough!
The two flames looked powerful, but in fact they were just drawing upon the five elements of fundamental energy within the body to refine the corpse, so it could not be considered as truly perfect fire control.

As the saying goes, practice is the foundation, and the truth will follow. Zhuang Lin agrees with this. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to gradually deduce the way of the five elements through his own understanding.

But it takes time to accumulate after all, and my application of the method is relatively simple for the time being, so I still have to deduce the immortal method well!

After doing all this, Zhuang Lin jumped. Although he was not good at controlling the wind, it was not difficult for him to take advantage of the wind if the wind direction was right. This was actually very similar to the Qinggong in novels. So he quickly floated back to the Zhao family courtyard and returned to the guest house where he was staying overnight.

On the several streets near the Wuling County Government Office, not all residents and tenants were sound sleepers, so naturally, some heard Xie Dao's terrified screams before his death.

But it was the middle of the night and there was curfew, so who would dare to go out and see? Everyone who heard it was so frightened that they forced themselves to sleep.

Those who were braver just stayed at home and listened quietly, not daring to breathe.
Zhao Chenyu's house seemed a little far away, so the courtyard was quiet. Zhuang Lin returned to the house, casually placed the items in his hand on the table in front of the bed, and then sat back on the bed.

At this moment, Zhuang Linping held up the wooden sword in his hand. Just now, its color was as red as blood, but as his murderous intent subsided, the color of the wooden sword gradually returned to the mysterious dark red.

Although this sword is full of murderous intent, it changes according to the heart and is forged by carving wood casually, but it is still a good sword.

Although his original foundation may not be outstanding, his spirituality is not bad. The key is that his mind is as flexible as his arm. If he is tempered carefully from time to time, or if there is another opportunity, one day he may even be able to give birth to a true sword spirit.

Then it is not just a magic weapon in the secular sense, nor can it be simply summarized as a spiritual sword, but it is a fairy weapon!
However, because I attempted to kill him twice this time, I may have misled him on his spiritual path.
With this thought in mind, Zhuang Lin placed the sword in his left hand and pinched the sword finger with his right hand. His mind followed his will and his righteous energy was as strong as a strong force. A hint of blood-red oozed from his fingertips, and he lightly tapped the sword with his sword finger.

At this moment, if there is a master of spiritual practice nearby, he will feel that this dark room is suddenly filled with light!
"Today we will determine your name: Chi Xuan!"

As Zhuang Linsheng finished writing the word, there was also the meaning of finalizing the name and sealing it!
"buzz"

Zhuang Lin's finger carved the two characters "Chi Xuan" onto the wooden sword. As the name was completed, the sword began to sing.
A smile from the heart appeared on Zhuang Lin's face!
Is this an accidental discovery?

After playing with it for a while, Zhuang Lin placed the wooden sword on a bookcase beside him, then put on his clothes and lay on the bed with his hands resting on his head.

At this moment, Zhuang Lin was thinking about what had happened before and after the fight with the evil cultivator, and he seemed to have gained some understanding during this time.

Whether it is the moment of heading to the yamen gate or the changes in the mind during the subsequent fight, it is very worth thinking about, just like a starry night with bright stars and stars, with the help of the power of the moon and stars, it is like Tai Chi riding a fish and swimming in it.

Got to write it down!

Thinking of this, Zhuang Lin got up from the bed, took his bookcase, took out the four treasures of the study, and soon began to write on a scroll of brocade book.
At three o'clock in the morning, not long after the night watchman passed by, Zhuang Lin stopped writing and looked at the brocade letter. He had written most of the scroll, each word of which contained a deep meaning, but it was obviously not enough to be a complete text.

take it easy!

Zhuang Lin put down his pen, stretched his body, and when he lowered his head again, his eyes couldn't help but catch a glimpse of the two books obtained from the evil sect.

He had just flipped through it briefly. One book was long and complicated, almost like an experimental record, and the other was obviously a book of evil magic, and some of the pictures were disgusting.

However, a stone from another mountain can be used to polish jade. People are divided into good and evil, but the law depends on who uses it.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Lin took out a book and started reading it directly. However, he frowned after reading for a while. Damn, this method is also evil. Whoever says it is not evil must be an evil person!
Despite this, Zhuang Lin still endured the discomfort and looked at it for a while longer.

But gradually, Zhuang Lin seemed to understand something in his heart. Just like what was said in the book, the things that devour souls and destroy nature are extremely cruel, but if you change your thinking, everything is excessive or insufficient. If it is not excessive in this way, but presented in other ways, isn't it also another way of leveraging power?

Zhuang Lin tried his best to put aside his subjective aversion and read the book in a more calm manner. He then came across the smoke method used by the evil cultivator when he escaped. It was a combination of sleight of hand and escape method, and even had a little bit of the meaning of raising clouds and blowing mist.
Although it is simple, it is quite insightful and has greatly benefited me in understanding the water control method.
By this time, Zhuang Lin had already cast aside his inner resistance and contempt, and approached the book with a mindset of seeking enlightenment, reading what he found helpful and ignoring what he found unhelpful.
It was not until he turned the second book that Zhuang Lin finally knew the name of the evil cultivator.

Because the numbers of some pages in the front of the book were a bit messy, the evil cultivator might have thought of something at the end and gave the middle part a name, "Yang Zi'ang's Record of Cultivating Treasures".

Combining the self-introductions in many places in the book, Zhuang Lin knew that this person's name was Yang Ziang.

In addition to the relatively normal spiritual awakening practice, what this person cultivates and practices also includes his own thoughts.

I've thought that if monsters can devour humans and devour their spirits, why can't cultivators do the same? If I'm worried about a calamity, then I can shift the cause and effect to the monster and take some of its spirit. Wouldn't that be all right?
After falling into this strange idea, he gradually started to go astray. Afterwards, he felt that he had made great progress, which made Zhuang Lin shake his head.

But at the same time, Zhuang Lin also had more doubts in his heart.

Yang Ziang deserved to be killed, but he had said a lot of high-sounding words in front of the county government office. His original intention was naturally to tell lies in order to save his life, but there was truth mixed in among his lies!
It’s not that Yang Ziang is inclined towards the righteous path, but that the righteous path he is talking about is weak, so he is relatively unscrupulous.

However, in Zhuang Lin's opinion, Yang Ziang is an evil person with narrow vision and no inheritance. The world he knows is too small, and he is just a frog in a well!
But even though he thought so, Zhuang Lin still had some worries in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh.

At the end of Kuching, it is just as the saying goes: when the world is in chaos, there must be evil spirits. This is true in both the secular world and the spiritual path.
