Longevity in Two Worlds: Double Pupils Are the Road to Invincibility
Chapter 261 The Unchanging Tathagata, Azure Mist Sword Technique
On Sword Mountain, Shi Yi continued his journey.
After he passed the step trials, the road ahead was simpler than he had expected, and no new formations led him into new trials.
Until Shi Yi saw a sword monument made of swords.
This sword monument is made up of countless long swords, and it is covered with dense sword marks.
When Shi Yi arrived at the sword monument, he could sense the unique artistic conception contained within it.
To be precise, it's sword intent.
Each sword mark on it represents a sword intent.
This sword monument is a mixture of sword intent.
"Is the sword intent on this the sword intent legacy left behind by the powerful figures within the Dream Mist Sword Sect?"
This thought popped up in Shi Yi's mind.
Different sects have different methods of inheritance.
Previously, he used his double pupils to see through illusions and passed through the trials of the different levels. The trial rewards from underground allowed him to make a great breakthrough in his martial arts cultivation. He thought he would continue to undergo trials next.
Unexpectedly, he did not encounter any more trials on his journey.
If Shi Yi hadn't been able to see traces of the array around him, he would have thought that the arrays had failed!
He benefited from the trial and naturally wanted to continue, since the rewards for passing the trial were too tempting!
He hadn't fully digested the power that had come from underground; a portion of it remained in his body.
After Shi Yi completed the bone inscription and obtained the internal cultivation method for the five internal organs, he planned to use it to directly complete the initial tempering of the five internal organs and break through to the Innate Grandmaster realm in one fell swoop.
His physical lifespan will also increase greatly at that time, which is something Shi Yi is looking forward to.
Upon seeing the sword monument, Shi Yi had a new guess in his mind.
"Could it be that the reward for passing the trial is not only the power on the ground, but also the sword intent inherited from the sword monument?"
"Or perhaps the sword intent passed down on this sword monument is the new trial?"
Many thoughts popped into Shi Yi's mind.
He didn't know much about the Azure Mist Lesser Thousand Worlds.
Previous searches of information related to the Menglan Ruins and the Menglan Sword Sect did not mention the Qinglan Lesser Thousand Realms.
"The sword monument is right in front of us. What's the use of thinking so much? Let's just try it and see!"
"If it's a trial of comprehension, that would be even better."
Shi Yi was quite confident in his own comprehension.
No matter how difficult the method of cultivation is, it can basically not stump him.
This applies to both martial arts and Taoist cultivation.
Shi Yi stretched out a hand, and as his blood and qi surged, his right hand touched the sword monument.
To understand its secrets, one naturally needs to come into contact with it.
The moment Shi Yi's right hand touched the sword monument, streams of sword intent surged into Shi Yi's mind.
Magnificent images flashed through his mind: a sword cleaving a great river, a sword slaying a great demon, a sword shattering a mountain.
These are all grand scenes that the masters of these sword intents once displayed.
Those who can leave their sword intent on the sword monument must have a high status in the Menglan Sword Sect and their cultivation must be strong, otherwise they would not be able to leave their sword intent on the sword monument.
These images appeared in Shi Yi's mind and transformed into long swords that flew into his sea of consciousness, becoming spiritual power that attacked his Yin spirit.
This attack method did not use overt means such as Taoist techniques or qi and blood, but rather combined artistic conception with visual imagery, transforming it into an attack of spiritual power that surged into Shi Yi's sea of consciousness.
Therefore, there was no visible movement at all.
If an outsider were to observe Shi Yi's state, they would only see him remain motionless after touching the sword monument, as if he were comprehending something, and would not see him being attacked by sword intents.
At this moment, in Shi Yi's sea of consciousness, his Yin spirit was suspended in the center of the sea of consciousness, and golden light bloomed on the Yin spirit. When Shi Yi saw the sword lights formed by the sword intent flying over, his expression remained unchanged, and he automatically received these spiritual powers.
Each sword light was an extremely powerful spiritual force, frantically attacking Shi Yi's Yin Spirit. However, after Shi Yi's Yin Spirit received these attacks, as the golden light flowing over it, all offensive methods seemed to have no effect, because his Yin Spirit aura did not change at all.
The reason for this is that Shi Yi has already used the Yin spirit characteristic of the Tathagata Visualization God, 'All Buddhas come, but the Tathagata remains unchanged,' and also used the Yuan Dan characteristic of the meaning of the immortality of gold.
The combination of these two qualities meant that when the mental attacks landed on Shi Yi's Yin Spirit, they did not harm him in the slightest. Of course, this was also because these sword intents were not the full power of those powerful individuals, but only a portion of the power derived from a single sword intent.
Not to mention that this is still within Shi Yi's sea of consciousness. Within the sea of consciousness, Shi Yi is the master of this space and can mobilize more power.
Within his sea of consciousness, his Yin spirit power was inexhaustible, and his recovery ability was even more astonishing.
Not to mention that after Shi Yi's Yin God, there are also the Tathagata Visualization God and the Golden Crow Visualization God, two powerful visualization gods sitting in different spaces of the sea of consciousness.
Under normal circumstances, they live in peace as long as the boundary line is in place. However, if other outsiders invade, the two sides will unite to deal with them.
"These sword intents indeed contain the insights of the person wielding the sword."
"However, the insights above are not many, only a small part."
"To comprehend the complete sword intent, one needs to repeatedly absorb the same original sword intent and comprehend the complete inheritance from it."
"The sword marks on the sword monument are the source of the inheritance."
After absorbing many sword intents, Shi Yi's eyes flashed with a look of enlightenment.
The sword light that surged into his sea of consciousness was both a test of offensive prowess and an opportunity for inheritance.
For those who can bear this offensive power, it is an opportunity; for those who cannot, it is a crisis.
Different people will naturally have different feelings when faced with this situation.
"Therefore, if I want to pass this trial, I need to comprehend one of the inheritances in order to pass the trial."
"However, this trial is not that simple."
"When you are experiencing the process of inheritance, you are actually making a choice."
After Shi Yi sensed the essence of these sword intents, he understood the general situation!
This is a trial, but also a legacy to be passed down.
If you are a disciple of the Menglan Sword Sect, you can receive the core inheritance after passing the staircase trial and arriving here.
However, whether or not one can obtain these core inheritances depends on the circumstances of the people here!
Making a choice may actually be a process of selecting a method of cultivation to inherit.
"The most famous technique of the Menglan Sword Sect is the Azure Mist Sword Manual."
"Since I'm already here, I might as well look for any trace of this technique."
"If I can obtain this inherited cultivation technique, then my cultivation methods will be complete!"
Shi Yi's martial arts techniques were not complete.
He didn't even have a cultivation technique at the level of a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, let alone a superior level martial arts technique.
Inside the Taiyi Sect, he examined the martial arts techniques in the Transmission Hall, but found none of them to be of superior quality. Ultimately, the Taiyi Sect was not primarily a martial arts cultivation sect, and its martial arts techniques were still lacking.
Of course, for cultivation sects, martial arts techniques are not that important; as long as the sect's disciples can cultivate normally, that's enough.
However, for a martial arts genius like Shi Yi, who has already developed a body of ice and jade, that's not enough!
The martial arts techniques within the Taiyi Sect could only meet his basic needs; they couldn't satisfy his true desires at all.
However, the "Azure Mist Sword Manual" of the Menglan Sword Sect is different. As far as he knows, this technique already includes the methods of Taoist and martial arts cultivation, which is also a characteristic of the Menglan Sword Sect.
When the two techniques are combined, they can unleash even greater combat power.
Therefore, in terms of martial arts cultivation methods alone, the "Azure Mist Sword Manual" must be a superior technique, and its level is even very high.
If combined with Taoist cultivation methods, its combat power can be even stronger.
In the medieval era, the Menglan Sword Sect was a very famous and powerful sect. In that era when human experts emerged in great numbers, its heritage was naturally not weak.
To some extent, it may be a practice at the same level as the Mahayana Tathagata Sutra in his possession.
For Shi Yi, having another major cultivation method was not a problem.
He can create a new sea of consciousness within the sea of consciousness, and have a new visualization deity reside there.
Although this would increase his consumption of cultivation resources, it was still worthwhile for Shi Yi.
In particular, if the Azure Mist Small World is not controlled by others, he can obtain a continuous stream of cultivation resources within it, thereby rapidly improving his abilities.
By consuming the cultivation resources here, his chances of advancing to immortality in Taoism and to celestial martial saint in martial arts will greatly increase, and the time required for advancement will be shortened.
This was of great help to Shi Yi.
Furthermore, the Azure Mist Sword Manual is an excellent choice for Shi Yi.
If he were outside, he would hardly have such a good choice.
After reaching the Bone Refining Martial Master level, it becomes extremely difficult to find superior martial arts techniques, let alone a complete set!
"call!"
"I'll find the Azure Mist Sword Manual first."
Shi Yi had a slight thought, and then his Yin Spirit took the initiative to receive the sword lights that flew into his sea of consciousness.
The inheritance carried by the sword light that had previously struck him was not weak, but it was not what he had expected.
His only goal now is the "Azure Mist Sword Manual".
Shi Yi wasn't sure if he could only take away one cultivation method from the trials here, but he wouldn't gamble, lest he miss the opportunity.
As Shi Yi absorbed and comprehended the sword lights, he would not carry the same sword lights as he had imagined, but would actively embrace those unfamiliar sword lights after confirming that they were not what he had expected.
The number of sword intents on the sword monument far exceeded Shi Yi's expectations, but it also showed just how glorious the Menglan Sword Sect had once been.
Such a powerful sect has disappeared into the annals of history.
However, its legacy has been preserved. As long as this sword monument exists, the legacy of the Menglan Sword Sect can continue to be passed down.
What has disappeared is the people, not the legacy.
This is similar to how the Taiyi Sect obtained the Eastern Emperor's inheritance.
The ancient Donghuang Taiyi has vanished without a trace, but his legacy has been passed down.
"Logically speaking, since the Azure Mist Sword Manual is the most famous in the Dream Mist Sword Sect, this sword intent should be the most eye-catching."
"Or rather, other sword intents evolved from it, and shouldn't be so ordinary."
This thought popped into Shi Yi's mind when he was searching for the "Azure Mist Sword Manual".
There are differences between sword intents, but the most important inheritance of the Menglan Sword Sect should be the strongest.
"found it!"
Shi Yi searched according to his guess, and sure enough, it didn't take long for a look of joy to appear on his face.
He discovered a very special sword intent.
Among the many sword intents, this one is the most unique, as the sword intents around it are all moving away from it.
Upon seeing this, Shi Yi immediately began to try it.
Instantly, this sword intent attacked him, and its power far exceeded that of the previous sword intent.
If he weren't in the sea of consciousness, his Yin spirit might have been injured.
It should be noted that these sword intents had weakened considerably after entering his sea of consciousness, yet they were still able to injure him, demonstrating that these sword intents were extraordinary.
After enduring the attack of this sword intent, the insights into the sword intent surged into Shi Yi's mind, and it also involved some cultivation techniques.
He was lucky; he got to see the introduction to the cultivation technique directly, which happened to be related to the outline of the "Azure Mist Sword Manual".
"found it!"
Shi Yi opened his eyes and his gaze locked onto a sword mark on the sword monument.
Compared to the striking sword intent, the sword marks in the "Azure Mist Sword Technique" are rather inconspicuous.
It resembles one of many ordinary sword marks.
If Shi Yi hadn't pinpointed the source of this sword intent, the sword trace of the "Azure Mist Sword Technique" would have been impossible to find.
Shi Yi moved his feet slightly, and then climbed to the side of the sword mark where the "Azure Mist Sword Manual" was located.
"This sword mark is the Azure Mist Sword Technique. It's really unexpected."
"Now that we've found the Azure Mist Sword Manual, the focus now is on comprehending this sword mark!"
"It would be best to obtain the complete 'Azure Mist Sword Manual,' but at the very least, I should obtain all the content related to martial arts cultivation within it. In this way, I will have completed the cultivation techniques I need!"
Shi Yi's gaze was firm.
For him, the opportunity was right in front of him, so he should at least complete his martial arts training.
He wasn't sure if there were any time or frequency restrictions for this insight, but getting what he wanted first was definitely the right thing to do.
With a slight thought, Shi Yi felt his blood and qi surge once more, and his hand touched the sword marks of the Azure Mist Sword Manual.
Compared to before, this time when he touched it, he only touched this one sword mark.
Of the sword intents that flew into his sea of consciousness, he only allowed this one sword intent to fly in.
He skillfully used his Yin Spirit to receive the sword intent of the "Azure Mist Sword Technique," and then began to comprehend it once again.
Compared to the sword intent of the Azure Mist Sword Technique he comprehended before, this sword intent is stronger now because he is closer to the sword mark, and the sword intent he feels when comprehending it is also stronger.
And this was exactly what Shi Yi was thinking.
New insights flooded into Shi Yi's mind, and the aura emanating from his Yin Spirit also changed accordingly. (End of Chapter)
