The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path

Chapter 133 - Harmonious Swords

Edited by Animeart and NZRose; TL-Checked by Chole

There was Alchemy in the Immortal Dao.

And there were two types of Alchemy.

One was the Outer Alchemy, and the other was the Inner Alchemy.

Outer Alchemy is the use of heavenly materials and earth treasures to make elixirs in the furnace.

Inner alchemy used itself as a furnace, the dantian as a real fire, the spiritual power of heaven and earth as elixir liquid, and the heart of Tao as the material to refine a perfectly natural golden elixir.

Once the golden elixir becomes a success, the spiritual power would flow continuously, and the Qi was a hundred times much better than before. You would be regarded as a true immortal cultivator.

At this particular moment, there was an endless aura of heaven and earth circulating in Lin Shu’s body.

Operation, condensation, compression.

His dantian was completely opened and released, the river flowed into the sea. The majestic spiritual energy was originally invisible, but now it gradually condensed and turned into a golden mist.

Lin Shu continued to urge this process with his own perception of “Tao”.

All things in heaven and earth are made in one breath.

Where Qi is gathered, all things grow together.

When all the aura turned into fog, new changes began quietly.

A drop.

Two drops.

Three drops.

Ten drops.

Thousands of drops.

The misty fog, drop by drop, turned into a pale golden liquid, which was filled by the dantian.

Lin Shu silently recited the advancement process, guided by the mental skill and method of the Sword Pavilion.

The mental method was like the alchemy fire.

The pale golden liquid gradually gathered up and turned into a viscous solid, which changed its color and presented a dazzling red gold.

The thicker the alchemy liquid, the more refined it was. It slowly rises in the dantian, condensing into a round ball, and then the brilliance flourishes and spins on its own.

The Golden Core Realm has been achieved.

Next is Nascent Soul Realm.

Although the golden elixir contains a magnificent aura, breathes out true Qi, penetrates the eight channels of the odd meridian, and the sea of dantian Qi, it is ultimately a tangible thing. After all, what is tangible is ordinary!

The cultivation of immortality is based on the mind and the Dao. How can it be attached to tangible things?

Lin Shu breathed slowly and emptied his mind.

All things can be born from one Qi

A man also belongs to all things.

So everything is me, and I am everything.

So I am one with all things.

So I’m the pulse between heaven and earth.

So I am heaven and earth.

The mantra in his heart hadn’t stopped, and the change in his dantian hadn’t stopped even for a moment.

The golden elixir, which had just been condensed, solid and dazzling in color, gradually became illusory.

The spiritual power gradually dissipated.

From the golden elixir to the pale golden liquid, then into the pale golden mist, and then disappeared into formlessness, as if it never existed before.

But in the void of the dantian, there seemed to be a human figure looming, and finally completely disappeared.

——Had it dissipated?

No.

Lin Shu with his closed eyes, still could see everything outside.

He seemed to be transformed into an endless void between the heavens and earth. In a short moment, he saw everything in the heavens and earth,

——This was the Primordial Spirit because it was still in its infancy form.

The pill of immortality was something that existed in reality, but the Primordial Spirit did not. It was separated from the physical body and existed in the way of heaven.

So even though some cultivators were dead physically, they still had a little chance to live by relying on the soul.

And becoming a Nascent Soul also meant that you can communicate with the Dao of Heavens, and the Dao of Heavens will recognize you.

When the Nascent Soul grows with the growth of one’s cultivation, the understanding of Taoism deepens, and the person grows into a mature soul, this person will have a part of the power that can contend with the Dao of Heavens, and he could also put his name on the Dao of Heavens.

This was called Crossing the Tribulations.

After entering the Tribulation Period, the strength of the immortal cultivator continues to grow, and when he reaches a certain critical point of strength, that is, when the Tribulation Peak is crossed, the Heavenly Dao will drop the Lightning Tribulations at a certain point in time thereafter. Under the Lightning Tribulations, one can either defeat the Dao of Heavens and ascend to the Immortal World, or fail to cross the tribulations, and come back in the next life.

Lin Shu’s realm was still there, so the Nascent Soul quickly grew into a complete primordial spirit, just some insights of Taoism, and it seemed that it will not return completely for a while, and it will not be able to have enough spiritual power in a short period of time. Therefore, it can be sometime before the Peak of the Tribulation.

However, it was enough.

In such a situation, such a cultivation base, many things in the world are just a sword.

If you cannot achieve it by one sword, then do it with two swords.

He opened his eyes.

The spiritual power tornado hovering above his head suddenly dispersed.

Lin Shu stood up and walked forward.

His eyes and ears have never been as sharp as they are now, and his perception has never been so sharp. Even when he calmed down, he could feel the ebb and flow of the heavenly Dao, breathing in and out.

Straight ahead, the evil spirit was strong, and the sword spirit was slashing left and right, up and down.

The black and purple ones are from the Great Wizard. He didn’t use weapons. He just relied on witchcraft. He played by all means, vicious and took people’s lives.

His Dao technique was evil, and Ling Fengxiao’s sword was also murderous.

Only killing can stop the killing, only evil techniques can stop the evil techniques. Are those who are worthy of killing fierce people, gentle and kind?

It’s just that the evil spirit of the Great Wizard comes from the secret witchcraft. It’s gloomy and cold. The evil spirit of Ling Fengxiao comes from the Phoenix Sword technique, which is brutal and fierce.

Although it was still a stalemate, Lin Shu could see that Ling Fengxiao had a completely lethal way of fighting!

If she passed her sword forward, she could hurt the right arm of the Great Wizard, but if she hurt the right arm, her right body is an empty door with weak defense, and she is bound to be hit. Ling Fengxiao did not retreat and swung the sword forward.

The three-foot sword was as bright as autumn water.

Blood spattered.

She suffered a lot of injuries, large and small, some of which were irrelevant, and some were serious injuries.

Lin Shu thought that he was at ease to restore his cultivation base because he believed that Ling Fengxiao would definitely stop the Great Wizard during this period, and that Ling Fengxiao fighting with the Great Wizard whose cultivation base was unfathomable, was not because he believed that Lin Shu could be here and that he could wake up before she was seriously injured or even be killed by the Great Wizard.

Lin Shu drew his sword.

The sound of Folding Bamboo was clear.

The Great Wizard turned his claws into his palm and slapped it hard this way!

The great pressure was like the pouring of Tianhe River, almost breathless!

With a twist of his wrist, Lin Shu straightened his sword forward and went straight into the battle.

The starting style of Sword Pavilion’s sword technique was the “Moonrise Cold Stream”.

It’s a sword move that can be followed in almost all the secret manuals of sword techniques.

Therefore, this sword move was unremarkable.

However——

If a person only had a sword in his heart, then even if it was the most ordinary technique, it could make the swordsmanship extraordinary!

Lightning pierced the ground.

The electric light ripped open the dark cloud sky, and the heavy pressure was completely broken. The tip of the sword pointed directly at the throat of the Great Wizard.

A sharp ghost whistle roared, and a witchcraft spell came here.

Lin Shu awoke the spirit of the sword and with the sword intent, broke through the witchcraft spell by thoroughly clearing the Qi, and then turned to the left to move the second sword technique “Morning Cold Mountain” diagonally down.

At the same time, Ling Fengxiao slashed down with grace and elegance.

Flipping on both sides, if the Great Wizard is not injured by Lin Shu’s sword Qi, he would be definitely chopped on his left shoulder by Identical Sorrow. If he protected his left side of the body, he could not avoid being stabbed on his right chest and abdomen by Lin Shu.

But then, the Great Wizard did not dodge, but turned slowly in the air.

This action seemed very slow, but it was indeed completed in a moment.

The Great Wizard’s body completed an incredible turn, bending his right arm forward, pressing down the tip of Lin Shu’s sword, swept his left hand, facing the blade of Ling Fengxiao, and after an instant, he escaped from the siege of the two, and the whole person floated a step behind.

The texture of his body does not look like a living person at all. When he hit the blades, it made the sound of hitting gold and stone.

The body and blade of the two swords were buzzing. The two were forced to step back, then looked at each other and continued to move forward.

And the Great Wizard was one person defending against two enemies, yet it didn’t look like he was at a disadvantage!

The light of the sword, the shadow of the sword, the sound of the sword, and the whistling of the wind were replaced by new sounds before the sound of the sword dissipated.

However, in this instant, thousands of attempts were made, and in the dizzying battle, Lin Shu suddenly discovered a flaw of the Great Wizard!

No, it can’t be said to be a flaw, the Great Wizard’s body and spells are becoming perfect, and the slightest loophole has not been exposed.

It can’t be called a flaw, then it can only be said to be——strange!

Slow.

His movements are slow.

It was a 0.00001 beat slower.

It wasn’t only like this for one move, but for all his moves.

He could do better, but he was so slow a ten-thousandth of a second, and Lin Shu’s sword Qi cut the purple silk sleeves.

Lin Shu and Ling Fengxiao looked at each other.

Ling Fengxiao nodded to him.

The words don’t have to be much.

Ling Fengxiao’s sword suddenly burst up into light!

Lin Shu also changed his moves quickly, using the fastest set of “String of Beads” in the sword techniques of the Sword Pavilion.

Since the wizard is slow, he will be fast!

He even closed his eyes and abandoned all distractions. In his heart, he had only one invincible sword.

His sword moves and style changed quickly. There was no fancy skill, only the moves that are so smooth enough to not need thinking at all.

Lin Shu finally knew what the 10,000 times he wielded his sword every day had brought him.

The mortal storytelling has been read a hundred times, and its righteousness is self-seeing, while the sword moves have been practiced thousands of times, and it has penetrated into his heart and carved into his bones, he will never die.

Fast, fast again.

The sword is fast, so is the Dao.

The weakness brought by the Great Wizard’s slow 0.0001 beat finally appeared under such a stormy attack, and then expanded rapidly!

Flaws!

Without any thought, Lin Shu bent forward, raised the tip of the sword, handed the blade, turned down, and swept lightly.

It is exactly the first style of “Everlasting Yearning”, ‘Empty Valley of No Return’

In front of his eyes, the light of the sword flashed, and there was a clear sound of “Ding”. The blade of the sword actually hit the blade of Ling Fengxiao.

There was an endless humming sound.

He was stunned, as if the two swords were suddenly telepathic.

Ling Fengxiao’s move is extremely mysterious and exquisite, which he had seen once before. It comes from the first style “Sorrowful Autumn” of the Phoenix Mountain Villa’s sword technique “Solitude”.

There was nothing wrong with both of them in their moves, and it was impossible to choose the wrong angle. Why did they collide with each other?

However, there was no need to think about it too much with the current situation. The spiritual power exploded at the moment when the sword struck, and they sent their weapons forward together!

The Great Wizard’s neck was suddenly bleeding.

In the next moment, Lin Shu changed his sword move to the second style of “Everlasting Yearning”, the “Unseeing Tianhe”.

Ling Fengxiao uses the second style of “Solitude”, the “Drifting Apart”.

Together, they moved forward, and the feeling of interlinking surged again.

This time, the Great Wizard took five steps back and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

His figure, however, was slowly blurring.

——Why is that?

Mr. Meng said that there was a method of external incarnation in the ancient manual that the Great Wizard had cultivated. Is it really just his phantom?

But only the “phantom body” could explain the strange slowness of the Great Wizard, because the phantom body was not as flexible and fast as the real body after all.

But if the phantom body’s skill is so good, what will the real body be like?

“The two swords are well matched and invincible. I will see you in the future. I will definitely consult you again.” The Great Wizard hooked his lips towards them, revealing a smile with unpredictable meaning.

At this time, the Great Wizard is in the middle, Lin Shu is in front of him, and Ling Fengxiao is behind him.

Lin Shu was about to make another move, and suddenly met the Great Wizard’s gaze.

The cold and strange tone, and the voice sounded with a laugh.

The Great Wizard said word by word: “Finally. Caught. You.”

The next moment, his figure disappeared without a trace, and the people accompanying him suddenly turned into flying ashes.

The world was clean once again, as if nothing happened.

Only those words echoed in his ears.

Lin Shu raised his head and saw Ling Fengxiao’s thin lips pressed tightly, staring at him, as if she knew something from those words.
