I've never felt happy to become an immortal.
Chapter 20 Chapter 4 Riding the Wind
Chapter 20 The Fourth Riding the Wind
Bai Xuan turned his gaze away, following his sixth sense, and looked around hesitantly.
The traffic flowing past on the other side of the street seemed normal.
However, Bai Xuan had excellent eyesight and very clear perception. He noticed that on the southeast side of the intersection, a young man in yellow clothes was staring anxiously at the screen of his mobile phone. He repeatedly looked up at the red traffic light on the zebra crossing.
The traffic light had just turned from green to red, and it would take another ninety seconds before it turned green for traffic.
But this minute and a half is a bit long for a delivery rider.
The young man was bold and reckless. He simply checked the surrounding traffic conditions and confirmed that the vehicle in front of him had stopped and was waiting for the red light. The vehicles in the distance of more than ten meters ahead remained stagnant, so the entire intersection suddenly looked safe.
...Anyway, this is not the first or second time I've run a red light to save time. I've passed this intersection hundreds of times.
With this simple and straightforward lucky idea in mind, the young man twisted the handle of the electric scooter, and the electric scooter rushed straight forward.
But he was only concerned with checking the left and right sides, but ignored the fact that the greatest danger came from behind him.
A vehicle pulling a steel coil was passing through the intersection and was turning right.
As the driver turned the steering wheel, the delivery rider was completely stuck in his blind spot.
Bai Xuan held his forehead with his hand, unable to bear to look down.
He used to watch videos online, and every day he would watch a "car accident collection" updated by an UP host. There was a fixed episode every day, and after accumulating thousands of episodes over the years, he had become numb to all kinds of death cases in tragic traffic accidents.
There are countless traffic cases like this where electric bikes get stuck in the blind spot of a large truck when it is turning.
Due to the huge size of the truck itself, it is difficult for the driver to realize what he has run over. Even if he realizes it, it is too late by the time he has run over it.
Looking at the electric bike in front and the truck swaying behind, the next outcome was basically doomed...
If you put it in a video, there will definitely be a line of words floating across the barrage - textbook.
With a truck of this size, even if it just bumps into him, the delivery guy is very likely to be dead.
In fact, it was just as Bai Xuan thought.
Just a side hit from the truck caused the electric scooter to shake violently. At the same time, the delivery man in yellow leaned towards the direction of the wheels. The moment he fell, the two rear wheels of the truck would catch up with him like a devil seeking his life.
Bai Xuan actually wanted to save people.
It's just that the distance is too far, across a crossroads, a full twenty or thirty meters away. If it were closer, you could try to pull it.
As for telekinesis... even at the risk of a high fever, telekinesis is not enough to cross such a long distance and lift a person out from under the car.
But you should still give it a try.
If only I could give this delivery man a push on the back...
Just as Bai Xuan had this thought, suddenly...
A cool breeze blew past my ears.
The poplar trees on both sides of the road rustled.
The wind blew up, and without any warning, the violent wind began to flow, and the strong wind rose from the ground and swept across the entire cross street at an extremely fast speed.
A pedestrian on the roadside was caught off guard and had his plastic bag blown away by the storm. A little girl who was posing cutely for a selfie had her hair blown into a helicopter propeller.
The wind swept across the intersection and rushed wildly into the bottom of the truck, hitting the delivery man on the back like a heavy air cannon. He had just scrambled to his feet and rushed towards the green belt on the side of the road as if he had been kicked.
Because the wind came too fast and too quickly, the invisible wind seemed to change from colorless to pale white in the drastic change in air pressure.
Pedestrians around were staggering.
The big truck swayed and moved slowly past.
The delivery man who had escaped death was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, with his electric bike crushed in two and the Crazy Thursday Meal scattered all over the ground behind him.
At this time, a passerby witnessed the whole thing happening and hurried over to help the man up.
The delivery man suddenly realized that he had just escaped death. The bravery and fearlessness he had when running the red light were gone. He was stunned for more than ten seconds, then his hands trembled and his face turned pale, and he was speechless for a while.
"The wind was so strong just now that I couldn't open my eyes."
"That's right, my eyelashes and glasses fell off."
"God really saved your life."
"Next time, don't run a red light, and don't mess with the king of land." (King = truck, Overlord = high-speed rail)
"Yes, life is important. Young man, you are blessed with a long life. Remember to go back to your hometown to burn some paper at your ancestral graves, and also go to the City God Temple to fulfill a wish." The last sentence was said by an old man.
Many people witnessed this "hurricane rescue" scene with their own eyes, which was truly eye-opening.
The source of this strong wind, Bai Xuan, was standing on the side of the road, holding a tree on the side of the road with one hand, with drops of cold sweat oozing from his forehead, breathing rapidly, his face was not pale, but also a little dejected.
That wind just now...
Was it me who summoned it?
It has a fixed direction, and this divine wind must be brought by itself.
But it was completely different from the feeling of telekinesis and sword control before. Although the wind was released by himself, it was not finely controlled.
Moreover, the wind summoned was obviously much stronger than telekinesis, and the mental energy consumed was not as intense as in previous attempts.
In the world of true cultivation, as a land immortal, he naturally has a deep understanding of the control of wind, otherwise how could he have the "Fuyao Sword".
The wind is a wild horse, it is dust, it is the breath that connects all things.
By pulling with one's own breath, one can form a soaring motion.
Travel thirty thousand miles a day while sitting on the ground, and reach the ninth heaven with a single thought.
However, this requires the realm of a land immortal and the blessing of vast cultivation, which is definitely not something I can do now.
"I've tried so many times before and nothing has changed."
"This time, just a thought generated a force eight gale."
"Could this be the change brought about by the Darkmoon Gate upgrade?"
Bai Xuan pondered to himself.
"It's quite interesting."
Whatever the reason, let's go back first. At this time, the yellow dog barked twice, and the light at the other end of the sidewalk turned green.
Bai Xuan walked by casually, passing by the delivery man who was surrounded by a crowd and kept asking questions.
Then he paused for a moment, lowered his head and said to the dog, "You can take the takeaway that fell on the ground over there back home to eat, but you have to go around it so no one can see you. Eat outside and then come back."
The dog pricked up his ears and nodded repeatedly. When he thought of the delicious fried chicken and sausages, tears flowed from the corners of his mouth.
While everyone else's attention was elsewhere, the dog sneaked up to the broken takeout box and stretched out its evil paws.
Bai Xuan turned around and left first.
It's not that I'm indulging the dog's behavior.
First of all, the original customer will definitely not want the takeaway that was run over by the car.
Secondly, saving a life and getting some dog food as a reward is not a high price, right?
……
After returning home, Bai Xuan immediately summoned the Dark Moon Portal, wanting to see if he had found its newly unlocked function.
But around the broken dark moon, there was an additional shadow.
The Dark Moon was originally shattered into pieces, but now one half remains intact, while the other half remains broken.
Looking closely, those fragmented pieces of the moon, which were originally in no pattern, now appear to have been carved by someone, with lifelike patterns emerging, like the silhouettes of some kind of creation.
One of the pieces was faintly emitting a golden glow, ripples were appearing, and golden scales were swimming in the shallow water.
"This is……"
Bai Xuan reached out and touched the broken mark on the boundary gate.
In an instant, there was a "ding" sound, and the golden light became brighter. The broken pieces of the moon were like a black curtain being lifted, and the shadow of a huge whale was directly revealed.
Words appeared on the gate.
[Fourth Divine Power: Riding the Wind]
"Fourth... Riding the Wind."
When Bai Xuan read out the name, he felt it sounded very familiar.
He immediately remembered that in the world of true cultivation, the name of the exiled immortal's remains taken away by Jiang Baichuan was the Fourth Chengfeng.
That was just a bone from his time as Bai Wuming, and he didn't take it too seriously.
After beheading Huangfu Qinhu with his sword, the bone naturally returned to his hands.
But now that he has awakened a magical power called "riding the wind" in the real world, Bai Xuan couldn't help but make associations.
Moreover, the word "supernatural power" cannot be used casually.
Supernatural powers, in turn, are the power to communicate with gods.
In ordinary practice, one starts with techniques and then gradually comes into contact with the concept of Tao.
Art is a small way, and it is also the prototype of Tao.
Bai Wuming once created sword moves that were hailed as the pinnacle of swordsmanship and stood at the pinnacle of kendo.
And supernatural powers are created after understanding the "Tao"... It is undoubtedly the embodiment of the Tao that is superior to techniques, and it is closer to the essence of all things in the world.
For example, even with swordsmanship, a person might spend ten years painstakingly learning just one sword technique; but if one masters the magical power known as 'Thousand Swords Transformations', one can easily master hundreds, even thousands, of sword techniques...
Of course, generally speaking, it is almost impossible to master a magical power directly.
Only those who have truly reached the realm of asking for the Tao can master supernatural powers.
Bai Xuan doesn't have any cultivation at all now, let alone true cultivation?
It just so happened that he had already mastered the magical power of 'riding the wind', which meant that he could control the wind with just a thought.
As long as your cultivation is sufficient, you can even control the wind and ride on it.
"But where does cultivation come from in the real world?" Bai Xuan thought helplessly.
"However, if it is a magical power, its previous power can be explained."
"I just don't know if this magical power can be brought to the world of true cultivation. Theoretically, it is possible."
The young man raised his finger, and with a thought, the air in the room began to circulate, and a wind rose from the ground.
After playing for a while, he looked at the illusory door again.
"This Dark Moon Realm Gate has changed so much that I was a little confused for a moment."
"But according to its current changes, it seems to be saying..."
"If I can retrieve one more Sword Immortal's remains, I can unlock one more magical power."
"Are you asking me to collect my remains and six roots?"
"So what am I now? The remains of a sword immortal? Or a man of destiny?"
Bai Xuan waved his hand, causing the Dark Moon Realm Gate to dissipate.
He was in a good mood after figuring out the magical power and discovering a new way to play.
Now even the main quest of the True Cultivation World has been confirmed. I should carefully collect my own remains. Maybe after collecting them all, I can even unleash a sword immortal posture or something...
dong dong dong-
There was a knock on the door.
Bai Xuan knew that Gou Zi had returned and opened the door.
To celebrate his new magical powers, he ordered a set meal at noon and started packing his luggage in the afternoon to move back to his hometown.
Night soon fell and we had a simple dinner.
At nine fifty in the evening, he lay down on the bed on time, turned off the screen of his mobile phone, stared at the ceiling, and silently recited two words in his heart.
— open the door!
The moon is dark and deep, and the gate to the world is wide open.
Consciousness transcends time, and the soul wanders far away.
