Immortality: I can absorb the memories of the dead.

Chapter 42: Sword Master Reincarnates and Passes on His Skills

"I have not been in the Demon Suppression Division for long, and I have only accumulated this little fortune. I am giving it to you as a token of my appreciation."

Zhou Yi nodded.

It's hard for the other party to have such a good intention.

He is now only at the peak of the acquired realm and has not yet entered the innate realm, so it is not easy for him to accumulate these things.

As the saying goes, you are what you are made of. Yang Xiong and his wife were upright people, and their son was also very decent.

"Come inside and talk."

"Yes!"

Yang Jian followed Zhou Yi into the yard and suddenly felt a surge of evil energy. His hair stood on end and goose bumps appeared all over his body. He couldn't help but tremble all over.

His pupils constricted, as if he had entered the netherworld of hell.

It looks like just a small yard, but it is like two different worlds from the outside world!

As a captain of the Demon Suppression Division, he had experienced this kind of thing before, but the chill in Zhou Yi's courtyard was so severe that he had difficulty even walking.

He is at the peak of the acquired realm and can be considered a minor master. But he can't even walk around freely in Zhou Yi's yard?

It’s a formation, it must be a formation!

I didn’t expect that the senior is also proficient in the art of formations. He is truly an all-round genius.

It’s so scary, he is indeed a master.

Of course, this is not actually the case. Because of his existence, Zhou Yi's courtyard absorbed spiritual energy too quickly. In addition, there were a lot of negative energy from the undead underground, which had been gradually affected over the years and had gradually transcended the outside world. It did not feel very big to masters, but it was a naked suppression to those below the innate.

In the future, it will only gradually increase with the passage of time. After a hundred years, even the innate and the major ones may be suppressed.

Normally, there are magic tricks that deliberately guide the way so that ordinary people cannot enter and will not notice. Yang Jian was brought in by Zhou Yi, so he naturally felt it.

Zhou Yi looked back at him, shook his head, and flicked his fingers to point a stream of energy at him. The pressure on Yang Jian disappeared without a trace in an instant.

He let out a long sigh.

"Make senior laugh."

Zhou Yi didn't say anything, he just walked into the house alone, and Yang Jian followed closely behind him.

"Is your mother okay?"

When Yang Jian heard Zhou Yi asking about his mother, he lowered his head with a bit of disappointment.

"My mother cried day and night since she found out about my father's death. If she hadn't raised me to adulthood, she would have collapsed long ago. Later, when I became successful in cultivation and could support myself, my mother left a suicide note late one night and hanged herself."

"His heart is like steel, which is rare. Your father has lived a good life."

Zhou Yi was quite emotional. If such a woman were in his previous life, he would never have found her even with a lantern.

After a pause, he spoke again:

"I see that although there is the aura of the Prajna Dragon Elephant Sutra in your cultivation, it is more of a sword aura. What's going on?"

Yang Jian explained:
"I did practice Prajna Dragon Elephant Art at the beginning, but for some reason, I later found that I had a strong talent in swordsmanship, so I switched to practicing swordsmanship as my main skill, and used Prajna Dragon Elephant Art as a supplement."

Zhou Yi scanned it with his mental power, and after observing carefully, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

My goodness, why is this kid’s soul aura so similar to that of Sword Saint Lu Qingfeng?
Is he the reincarnation of Sword Saint Lu Qingfeng?
This is truly the biggest coincidence in the world. I helped him in the past, and later I received the inheritance of Sword Saint Lu Qingfeng. Now he has come back to repay me.

It seems that there is really God's will in my life.

Perhaps it was because he helped Yang Jian and his mother that he was able to inherit the legacy of Lu Qingshan from his previous life.

At the beginning, I made a promise to the corpse of Sword Saint Lu Qingfeng that I would repay him when I saw his reincarnation in the future. Now that I have met him, and he is the son of an old friend who knows how to repay his kindness, I can also give him some advice.

"The level of your sword skills is average. Although you have excellent talent, it will be difficult for you to go far." Zhou Yi flicked his finger and a green light pierced into Yang Jian's brow.

"This sword technique is called the Blue Lotus Sword Canon. It is a peerless sword technique. Practice it well and don't slack off. Perhaps you will achieve something in this life."

Although the sword-drawing and sky-slashing technique is also his, it is too life-threatening.

Lu Qingshan, Yang Jian's previous life, reached the level of Martial Saint but died too early, so Zhou Yi taught him the Green Lotus Sword Classic.

The Green Lotus Sword Canon was once the treasure of a peerless sect. Although it is weaker than the Sword-Drawing and Sky-Slashing Technique, with his talent, he can still practice it to the level of a Martial Saint.

The most important thing is that this technique will not kill you.

Yang Jian obtained the martial arts method, sensed the mystery behind it, was overjoyed, and immediately knelt on the ground.

"Thank you very much, Master, for teaching me the Dharma. I have no way to repay you. I am willing to follow you till death, even if it means sacrificing my life for you."

Zhou Yi shook his head.

"Don't worry, I am used to being alone and I don't accept disciples. Today I am teaching you the skills, which can be regarded as a reward for the Wuxiang Gong that your mother gave me."

Yang Jian was slightly disappointed, but knowing that Zhou Yi didn't like it, he didn't pester him anymore.

"It is the junior who is rude."

Zhou Yi then said:

"If there is nothing particularly important in the future, don't come to me casually. I am used to being idle and don't want to attract too much attention."

"The younger generation should keep this in mind."

Time flies, and several months pass quietly.

The number of demons being escorted to the Heavenly Prison increases every day, and the number of executioners in the Heavenly Prison has increased threefold. The entire Heavenly Prison seems more and more like it was built specifically for the Demon Slaying Bureau.

Many prisoners were imprisoned in the Dali Temple. Only the most vicious demons would be sent here together with the monsters.

Zhou Yi became more and more familiar with the Wu Department and felt more and more at ease.

Oily water.

"Hiss~! How can you have such fine wine? It's really rare. Since I came to Daqian, I haven't had such fine wine for a long time."

On this day, Zhou Yi gave Zhao Yuanji a jar of good wine that he brewed himself, which drew Zhao Yuanji's praises.

"Senior, as long as you like it."

Zhao Yuanji narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly.

"You are as smooth as a loach, why did you suddenly give me this jar of fine wine? Just tell me what you want to say."

After several months of contact, Zhao Yuanji admired Zhou Yi very much. He was mature and capable in his work. Although the Ministry of Materials had a lot of money, there were also many people watching over it.

There are so many details involved that if you are not careful you may end up in big trouble, leading to dismissal from your post or even execution.

But Zhou Yi did a great job, and all the government offices, big and small, had nothing bad to say about it.

As for the ways of the world, he handled it just right. Even he, an old man who had lived for more than a hundred years, sometimes felt in his conscience that he could not compare to him.

Of course, what he didn't know was that there were many people that Zhou Yi really couldn't deal with, so he used his mental power to directly perform illusions and slightly modify their will. If they really couldn't be changed, then with a sword of the power of hundreds of ancient dragon elephants, everything would naturally go smoothly for the other party.

"As expected of Senior Zhao, I have been in Monobu for a few months and have discovered that many demons are not very strong and can be taken down in advance to prevent them from harming the people. Although I have heard that there are evil sects in the martial arts world commanding demons to harm people, why do the several major sects currently in power in the court turn a blind eye and watch the development?"

We will test the waters tomorrow, and hope that everyone can give us a lot of support at that time. Thank you very much.

I will try to update more often when the time comes.
