Immortality: I can absorb the memories of the dead.

Chapter 21 Sword Master - Sword Slashing Technique
Fourteen dragon-elephant powers.
Fifteen dragon and elephant powers.
Sixteen Dragon-Elephant Powers.
Finally, it didn't stop until it reached seventeen dragon-elephant powers.

This includes not only the power of the two monsters, but also the power of the innate master absorbed by himself.

The power absorbed by the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art is not all of the opponent's power. After refining, only the most essential part remains. However, as long as the amount absorbed is large enough, it will be able to gain sufficiently powerful power.

After a quick glance, there were no survivors on the shore or in the lake, so Zhou Yi dived directly into the lake.

When he arrived, the lake water parted on its own and was blocked outside by Zhou Yi's Qi force field, so he could not get close at all.

There are no living creatures under the lake, and it is dead silent, but the spiritual energy is quite abundant, different from the outside world.

Presumably, it was because of this abundant spiritual energy that the two giant pythons were able to evolve.

Zhou Yi went straight to the bottom of the water. There was a big pit underneath, and there were actually several white eggs in it. They should be the offspring of the giant snake. The spiritual energy was strongest under the white eggs, like a small spring, constantly bubbling up.

Zhou Yi waved his hand, used the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill to directly refine the white egg, and then escaped under the spring.

After entering, it turned out to be a different kind of paradise, with flowers, grass, trees, and a group of sparrows playing and dancing, just like a paradise.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth inside is even more abundant.

"These flowers, plants, trees, and sparrows all survive by relying on this rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

Zhou Yi’s mental power spread out and scanned everything. He understood everything in his mind. He tapped his feet lightly and arrived in front of a man who was sitting in meditation.

He was about forty years old, middle-aged, thin, with a long beard, but he was completely dead.

"Is this the Martial Saint?"

Zhou Yi slowly stretched out his hand and gently touched the other person's body, and a flood of memories flooded into his mind.

[If Heaven had not given birth to my Lu Qingfeng, the eternal sword path would be like a long night. ]

Zhou Yi was shocked. What a domineering swordsman.

[There is always someone better than you, and I am still too young after all. 】

Zhou Yi: “(`)?”

[Finally I have broken through to become a Martial Saint. I heard that in ancient times, gods existed in this world.]

[Heaven, since you don't want me to become an immortal, why do you want me to become a saint? Why do you want to give me hope? Draw the sword and cut the sky! ]

【So that's how it is. 】

After Zhou Yi understood the other party's memory fragments, he quickly understood what was going on.

The other party's name is Lu Qingfeng, he was a top swordsmanship genius in the previous dynasty. He started practicing martial arts at the age of four, entered the innate realm at the age of ten, joined a sect at the age of twenty-three, and stepped into the realm of a national martial saint at the age of forty!
He created many legends in his life, which are praised by the world.

Especially the sword-drawing and sky-slashing technique he created is unique.

That is the pinnacle of kendo, a sword that uses all the warrior's strength, it is so stunning and brilliant that it shocks heaven and earth, makes ghosts and gods weep, and no one can match it!
It can definitely be called the best sword technique in the world at that time!

However, it also has a disadvantage, which is that because it consumes too much effort and energy, the lifespan of anyone who uses it will be greatly shortened.

"What a coincidence, isn't it? It's a perfect match for our majors."

Zhou Yi's mouth slightly raised. His immortality fruit was specifically designed to overcome all life-destroying techniques. After breaking through the Martial Saint realm, Lu Qingfeng's life span was almost over. In order to pursue immortality, he inquired from many sources and learned that there were land immortals in this world. It was said that such beings could prolong their lives, like immortals, immortal for a thousand years, and roam freely between heaven and earth.

So Lu Qingfeng kept pursuing that realm.

But unfortunately, until his death, he had not found a way to become an immortal.

At the moment of his death, he was extremely angry and finally tried his best to cut out a sword. The sword split the sky and crossed dozens of states. However, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a barrier above this world, wrapping up the entire world.

Even his sword-drawing and sky-slashing technique, which cost him his life, could not break this nameless barrier.

Lu Qingfeng, who had exhausted all his efforts and whose life was coming to an end, could only choose to sit and die in this cave to avoid being disturbed in his peace after death.

His original spirit is no longer there, and no one knows whether he has been reincarnated or has taken over another body to be reborn.

"It seems that this world is not as simple as it seems!"

There was a flash in Zhou Yi's eyes.

He had thought about this problem before. Since this world has such a heaven-defying existence as the National Martial Saint, then logically there should be even more powerful existences. Otherwise, there shouldn't be such heaven-defying skills as the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art and the Prajna Dragon Elephant Sutra.

Otherwise, if someone really cultivated the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art to the extreme and devoured many people, wouldn't the world be directly reduced to the territory ruled by the demons? No one could compete with it.

There must be some hidden secrets, but since even the great Martial Saint of the Nation does not know it completely, it may not be easy for me to find it out.

We can only wait and see if we can solve this mystery from more information.

Fortunately, he gained many cultivation memories from Lu Qingfeng.

This includes Lu Qingfeng’s most proud sword-drawing and sky-slashing technique!

There are also experiences of cultivation after becoming a great sect.

In addition, things outside of our body are also extraordinary things.

Lu Qingfeng has a dark green emerald gem ring on his hand. The ring is a storage ring that can be used to store and retrieve items. It is truly an essential artifact for traveling around the world and committing murders and robberies.

There was no sword. Lu Qingfeng had already cultivated to the state of unity between man and sword, so he didn't need a sword!

But in the storage ring, there are some treasures such as skills, pill recipes, materials, etc. that Lu Qingfeng accumulated after defeating other martial arts masters.

These are the things I need most right now.

“It turns out that the reason why the sect began to cultivate spiritual power was to increase the strength of the soul. When the soul reaches a certain level, it will be integrated with the internal cultivation to achieve the unity of man and nature and achieve the realm of martial saint!
However, spiritual skills are hard to find. Even a strong man like Lu Qingfeng only relies on his own sword intent to sharpen his soul, and has no substantial spiritual skills.

Maybe I should think of a way to focus on this, or try to create a suitable spiritual practice myself. After all, I have absorbed the memories of so many people, so it shouldn't be a problem to give it a try."

There is no one to disturb you here, and there is such a rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Why not practice in seclusion here for a while, and practice the art of drawing the sword and slashing the sky, wouldn't it be wonderful?
Zhou Yi did as he said and bowed towards Lu Qingfeng's body.

"Thanks to the memories left by the senior, I was able to learn a lot of cultivation knowledge. I will have to bother you for a while, please don't blame me."

After saying that, Zhou Yi went straight to a remote place and began to meditate.
