Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

During this process, the Yin-Yang School grew stronger with the help of the Qin state.

Ultimately, it became the "state religion" of the Qin state, and she became the guardian mage of the state.

The Mohists and Taoists, those schools that had grudges against the Yin-Yang School, were successively destroyed under the iron hooves of the Qin state.

Finally, they fulfilled their long-cherished wish and gathered all seven constellations of the Azure Dragon.

The Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon contain the path to immortality.

Just when she thought she would achieve immortality alongside the Eastern Emperor, she was betrayed by him.

The path to immortality has always been walked alone.

Having already obtained the path to immortality, why would Donghuang Taiyi share it with outsiders?

Yanfei died once again.

After death, she reopened.

Every time, it begins in one's youth.

Some of these stories are based on her experiences, while others suggest that she never truly grew up and was killed by a powerful enemy while still a teenager.

Naturally, after death, she saw herself return to her teenage years.

The cycle repeats endlessly.

With each reincarnation, her life undergoes some changes, more or less.

But the endings weren't very good.

As long as she remains a member of the Yin-Yang School and continues to be entangled with it, a dead end awaits her.

Even though she betrayed the Yin-Yang School along with Yan Dan in the first cycle of reincarnation, she was eventually captured and brought back by Donghuang Taiyi, so she still didn't really leave the Yin-Yang School.

Outside, in the courtyard.

The place is shimmering with light and mist, making it seem like a dream world, a magical realm, and unlike the real world at all.

If you trace the origin of these flowing lights, you will find that they all come from a sword.

"The Spring and Autumn Sword!"

This sword is unpredictable and, in terms of ultimate lethality, it may not be as powerful as the Frost Sword, but as a fourth-tier sword, it has its own unique features.

It contains the "power of time," which can shorten the lifespan of others, and can also be used for other things.

At this moment, Xu Qing fully activated the "Spring and Autumn Sword," forcibly performing a "Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation" on Yan Fei. It sounds unbelievable, but in reality, it is not something that cannot be done.

Back in the Yan Kingdom, Xu Qing used similar methods to influence A Gang, A Jin, and A Ming, making them attain enlightenment in their dreams and experience battles in their dreams, thus quickly mastering martial arts and gaining considerable strength in a very short time.

It can be said that Xu Qing is very talented in the art of illusion.

Just like in the Yin-Yang School, each elder and each high-ranking member has different skills.

After learning Yin-Yang techniques, Xu Qing mastered illusion techniques the fastest.

Thinking about it carefully, this isn't surprising at all.

Casting illusions requires an extremely high level of mental cultivation from the caster.

Xu Qing often enters the system space in his spiritual form to forge swords there.

No matter how much time has passed within it, in reality, it is but a fleeting moment.

As long as he can maintain his mental strength, he can stay in the system's space indefinitely.

Over the years, he has forged countless swords, and his spiritual cultivation has reached an extremely terrifying level.

Although Yan Fei is known as a woman of extraordinary Yin-Yang skills in the Yin-Yang School, her spiritual cultivation is far inferior to Xu Qing's. In the previous exchange, she seemed to have blocked Xu Qing's attacks, but in reality, she had already fallen into a disadvantageous position.

Then, Xu Qing fully activated the power of the "Spring and Autumn Sword," using the sword's power of time to mix into the illusion, immediately pulling Yan Fei into a sufficiently realistic dream.

An ordinary dream lasts only a night, and you'll soon wake up.

However, the dream that Xu Qing is currently creating.

In reality, it was only a fleeting moment, but in the world of dreams, thanks to the power of the Spring and Autumn Sword, Yan Fei experienced countless years.

Although the Spring and Autumn Sword contains the power of "time," in the real world, this power is not actually that strong. It is obviously difficult to cut off a person's lifespan of several decades with a single sword strike, or to bring a spiritual creature to maturity.

Ultimately, it's just a sword; it doesn't even qualify as a divine weapon.

Strictly speaking, this world is still a martial arts world.

If you really want to kill someone, you don't need to shorten their lifespan. You can just stab their brain or heart with a sword and you'll be done with it.

But it's different in dreams.

Because it is a virtual world, the spirituality within the Spring and Autumn Sword can better integrate into it, and then unleash that power to its fullest potential.

This is a method of using the Spring and Autumn Sword that Xu Qing has figured out over this period of time through his exploration of it.

Yan Fei's sudden arrival ironically made her the one who proved it.

Xu Qing didn't dislike Yan Fei, who was obsessed with love; on the contrary, she even liked her.

Well, after all, the other person is quite good-looking and big enough.

The Yin-Yang School is a sinking ship; it's bound to capsize in the future.

In the original novel, Yan Fei betrayed the Yin Yang School, and this Dong Jun wasn't exactly loyal to the Yin Yang School either!

If they can get the other party to defect, they may not necessarily join them, but they can definitely cause some trouble for Donghuang Taiyi and the Yin Yang School.

Therefore, in the "Dream Cycle," he let Yanfei know some things about the future.

Of course, Xu Qing also altered some of it.

Subsequently, many possibilities and various futures were explored for Yanfei.

After all this, Xu Qing felt a deep sense of exhaustion.

However, he persisted.

time flies.

In reality, an hour has passed.

In the courtyard, light flows by, like a dream.

Yan Fei stood in front of Xu Qing, her eyes closed.

I don't know how many times I've gone through reincarnation in my dreams.

When Xu Qing sheathed his longsword.

The surrounding light vanished instantly, and everything disappeared. Yan Fei's face turned deathly pale in an instant. Her eyes remained closed, and her brows furrowed and relaxed intermittently.

With a final muffled groan, he fainted.

Even with Xu Qing's mental strength, he almost couldn't hold on to this illusion.

As the person involved, Yan Fei was in the dream, witnessing and experiencing life after life in the dream. When she woke up, all these memories rushed towards her. She may not retain all of them, but it was an extremely terrifying mental attack.

It's not surprising that she fainted.

Chapter 219 A Wavering Heart, A Seed

Never before has a dream been so long, as if it were about to devour all of time.

If one were merely to wallow in the illusion, it wouldn't be so agonizing. But Yanfei remained remarkably clear-headed from beginning to end, watching this dream unfold and cycle before her eyes, every detail piercingly clear.

For her, this was an experience she had never had before in her life.

Even though the dreamer always exists from a third-person perspective, like watching another "Yanfei's" life trajectory through a thin mist, lacking some of the visceral pain, the sheer number of "lives" is still overwhelming.

That wasn't just a fragment of a day or two, but a complete lifetime.

From a toddler learning to speak, to the blazing sun holding the throne of the Eastern Lord, and then to a different ending in each lifetime.

As the curtain of life slowly falls, a new cycle will begin without warning, repeating endlessly.

At first, Yanfei could still count the number of reincarnations, but later she felt numb and even her concept of time became blurred.

What she didn't expect was that the moment the illusion shattered, countless memories flooded her consciousness like a burst dam. The joys and sorrows, life and death, glory and fall of those reincarnations were piled up densely. At first, she could grit her teeth and try to sort out the clues, but when an even more turbulent wave of information swept in, her consciousness seemed to be torn apart, her vision went black, and she finally fainted.

When she opened her eyes again, she was in an unfamiliar room with fresh air, but this did nothing to alleviate her discomfort.

Her head was throbbing as if countless tiny needles were piercing her meninges. Her head felt heavy, and even lifting her eyelids was difficult. A wave of dizziness washed over her limbs, making it hard for her to move even a finger.

"who am I?"

What exactly do I want to do?

"..."

Some people who had previously been in contact with Xu Qing had experienced similar feelings.

For example, the red owl from South Korea was turned into an incapacitated idiot by Xu Qing using methods such as "soul searching".

Ultimately, it's because their spiritual cultivation is too shallow; once their souls suffer a severe shock, they are prone to mental instability.

Consort Yan wouldn't go that far.

After all, the Yin-Yang School's cultivation methods inherently include profound spiritual cultivation techniques, making her sea of ​​consciousness far more stable than that of Red Owl and others.

However, the information overload was too intense, and even she couldn't withstand the torment, remaining trapped in a state of semi-consciousness.

I wanted to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt as heavy as lead. I wanted to perceive my surroundings, but my five senses were obscured by a thick fog, and I couldn't capture anything.

I don't know how much time passed before that heavy feeling of constraint gradually subsided.

Yan Fei suddenly opened her eyes, her chest still rising and falling slightly from her rapid breathing, every inch of her body still feeling deeply tired and uncomfortable.

Just then, a somewhat nonchalant voice suddenly rang in my ear, unhurried, "You're awake."

Then came another almost joking remark: "Congratulations, you're a lovely boy now."

If it were anyone else, upon hearing these words after being in a deep sleep for a long time, they would immediately sit up in shock to check themselves. However, Yan Fei's eyelashes trembled slightly. Even though her body was still shrouded in drowsiness, her mind had grasped the key point in an instant, clearly understanding "who she was" and recognizing the speaker's identity.

She slowly raised her eyes and saw a figure dressed in black finery standing quietly not far away. His temples were gray, and his brows were filled with the vicissitudes of time. It was the "Mr. Qing" she had seen in Housheng Mansion before.

Her voice was as cold as ice, devoid of any extra emotion: "How do you plan to humiliate me?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing turned around, a genuine look of surprise on her face: "You don't seem surprised?"
