Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 200: First Open the Sword Box, Then Go to Pick the Stars
Jingqian felt that life was full of surprises!

Having just finished serving the powerful figures attracted by [Yanfu Dao], [Chunyang Tian] immediately faced an even more outrageous calamity.

The powerful swordsman before them was a sight to behold, inspiring awe and fear.

The key point is that the opponent has a clear target, heading straight for the three [Chunyangzi], and is about to kill them.

Jing Qian acted decisively, not daring to waste even a moment, and went all out!
With a wave of his hand, a massive army of ghosts surged forth, numbering nearly one hundred thousand.

These great demons formed a battle formation, each borrowing a powerful [Heavenly Mandate], creating a formidable army of great demons.

They headed straight for the Serpent of Moke, blotting out the sun and sky, completely covering the battlefield between the two great Daoists.

[Rakshasa] focused all his efforts on eliminating the ghosts. These ghosts had many numbers and some strange [destinies], but their combat strength was not outstanding. He did not waste much time and destroyed 100,000 evil ghosts.

However, taking advantage of this brief moment, the three [Chunyangzi] in front of them completely disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared at all.

[Rakshasa]'s face was ashen. Not only had he failed to kill the reincarnation of the goddess, he had also failed to restrain the enemy and buy time for [Qinglianzi]!

Ultimately, it was because Lingbaozi and Luoshazi had become too arrogant.

If the two of them, after entering the realm, immediately disregard everything and head straight for the goddess, then quietly place the [Mysterious Mirror] to guide Shi Xuan there, they will surely be able to kill him in one blow.

However, they inexplicably deviated from the main storyline and wandered around the [Wuji Heavenly Dynasty], thus missing a crucial opportunity in the battle.

However, in many cases, wrong decisions may be caused by other factors.

The two men's murderous intent toward the goddess was the root cause of their mental deviation.

Just then, a long river of sword light swept over, and Shi Xuan appeared, standing beside [Rakshasa].

But then [Rakshasa] spoke up:
"Master Shi, I've let the goddess's incarnation escape!"

Shi Xuan remained impassive, and spoke:
"I understand. You two have completed your mission. Go back now and leave the rest to me."

His strong confidence was evident in his speech!

Then Shi Xuan took out a unique [Spiritual Insight] from his sea of ​​consciousness, which was the first-grade [Mysterious Mirror].

This was a treasure that the [Mountain and River Map Universe] lent him before he set off. It could greatly enhance Shi Xuan's mobility and was also a highly effective tracking artifact.

He shone the [Mysterious Mirror] onto [Yao Gu Lin Hai]. Surrounded by mysterious light, the figures of the three [Pure Yang Masters] gradually appeared on the [Mysterious Mirror].

Once the goddess's figure is fully revealed, Shi Xuan can use the power of the spirit mirror to pursue her remotely.

It's only a matter of time before he kills the goddess!

Less than a quarter of an hour later, the three Pure Yang Masters fully appeared, and Shi Xuan disappeared from the spot in a flash.

【Rakshasa】gazed in the direction Shi Xuan had gone, speechless. He then erased the avatar of 【Moksha Serpent】 and transformed into a new avatar.

It was actually a second-rank [Star Devouring Beast]!
He directly attacked the [Demon Ancient Lin Hai] beneath his feet, intending to use this realm as compensation for his mission failure.

In an instant, a cataclysmic disaster erupted here!

……

When Shi Xuan reappeared, he inexplicably found himself on a vast blue sea.

He scanned the area with his divine sense and found himself in a brand new [Sea Realm].

This is a transit point for the three [Chunyangzi] to escape. After they traveled here, they have already disappeared again.

Shi Xuan had no choice but to take out the [Mysterious Mirror] again and let it reflect the surrounding mysterious light.

However, in addition to the three figures of [Chunyangzi], a girl in green also quietly appeared.

This girl in green is the spatial beacon chosen by Jing Qian, the nail he planted in [Half-Sky Sea].

At this very moment, Green Calyx was trembling inside the Dimensional Ring, too afraid to move.

Suddenly, the Void God Court gave her a mission, asking her to come here to guide the senior members of the God Court, and gave her a generous experience reward.

For the sake of her spiritual practice, she couldn't bear to refuse.

However, the Divine Court also gave her an exaggerated risk warning, telling her to be careful to avoid life-or-death calamities.

She was terrified and didn't plan to go out for the time being!

Jing Qian had been training his troops for a thousand days, only to use them for one. By activating the spatial beacon, Green Calyx, for the first time, he had created a great deal of room for maneuver in the face of a life-or-death calamity.

【Half-Sky Sea】is an extremely special 【Sea Realm】within 【Northern Eternal Emperor's Boundless Heaven】. This place is closed off year-round and never communicates with the outside world. Even under the coverage of 【Boundless Heaven Dynasty】, it acts on its own and has no contact with the Heaven Dynasty.

All of this is because the Demon Saint, the Realm Lord who guards the Half-Sky Sea, possesses profound cultivation and a unique status.

When [True Corn] presented the [Half-Sky Sea] boundary beacon to Jing Qian back then, it also expressed his respect for the lord of this realm.

They were inseparable best friends.

【True Corn】 meant well, wanting its son to practice with this 【Half-Day Sea】, but it overlooked an important issue.

Unwittingly, it caused its good friend to become entangled in karma with [Chunyangzi], which could truly be fatal!

Sure enough, the three Pure Yang Masters only stayed in the Half-Sky Sea for a few moments before attracting a great sword cultivator to enter the realm.

The ruler of this realm had no idea of ​​the cause and effect involved; all it knew was that an uninvited guest had arrived in its lair!
According to the rules of [Half-Sky Sea], this is a great offense, and it is the reason why it has no choice but to start a war.

While Shi Xuan was still waiting for the reaction of [Xuanjian], a huge demon that blotted out the sky appeared from the sky.

Shi Xuan looked up and saw a giant pigeon spirit attacking him with all its might.

This pigeon spirit is none other than the ruler of this realm, a first-rank cultivator, a [Half-Heavenly Demon]!
Shi Xuan unleashed boundless sword light, sweeping towards the giant pigeon spirit, and a great battle broke out.

It's perfectly reasonable that the giant pigeon spirit likes to befriend the corn spirit.

……

Inside the Yingfu Pagoda Realm, in a corner of the old white ox's cowshed, the figures of three Pure Yang Masters suddenly appeared.

Shangxi and Chimiao remained unchanged, still full of energy and vigor, but Chixiao's magical power was greatly diminished, and he was completely withered.

This was the first time he had led others on a void crossing. Even though they were guided by beacons and the distance they traveled was only within the Northern Heaven, it still severely depleted his magical power.

This required ten times more magical power than he could travel back and forth on his own.

Fortunately, by using three beacons and shifting between three different realms, he was finally able to temporarily restrain the great swordsman.

Within Jing Qian's perception using the Green Calyx Beacon, Shi Xuan had just utterly annihilated the pigeon spirit of [Half-Sky Sea], who was now half-dead and fleeing. He was on his way to [Flower Spirit Sea].

The Flower Spirit Sea naturally could not hinder the other party in the slightest. However, in the third realm, Jing Qian used the newly joined Insect Nest Heaven to lead this great sword cultivator into the heart of the Wuji Heavenly Dynasty.

Given the Empress's personality, she shouldn't let Shi Xuan leave so easily, right?
The three Pure Yang Masters temporarily found a safe gap and returned to the Yingfu Pagoda Realm.

Jing Qian had thought it through very clearly. If they wanted to escape the pursuit of this great swordsman, it would be impossible for the three of them, mere novices, to do so.

Only by fully utilizing the sect's resources and strengths can we succeed.

After he appeared, he sensed the location of the cowshed and was shocked to find that he was in the core area of ​​what was originally Yingdu.

However, the once prosperous Yingdu has completely disappeared, leaving only a flat and smooth plain in its place.

In the very center of this vast plain, there was a huge cauldron, blazing with astonishing wok smoke.

Jing Qian couldn't help but ask:
"Uncle Niu, it's only been a few years, yet the [Yingfu Pagoda Realm] has changed so much!"

The old white ox immediately shook its head and answered:

"Welcome back to the territory, gentlemen!"

"In the years you've been away, many significant events have occurred in the realm."

"However, the most crucial thing is that the Ying clan suddenly left the territory as a whole, giving up the opportunity to rule the Ying Futu Realm, and moved almost everything that could be moved away."

"Currently, this territory is under the jurisdiction of the [Kitchen God Shop]."

After the Duke of Ying suddenly rebelled and tricked the Empress, the Ying clan, which had been prepared for this, disappeared overnight, from the Emperor down to the millions of people in the Five Venerable Grotto-Heavens, causing a violent upheaval in the Yingfu Realm.

Once the original political system collapses, many things need to be readjusted and a new balance needs to be formed.

However, with a formidable enemy at hand, the three Pure Yang Masters were completely unable to concern themselves with the changes in this realm.

The escape of Ying Shi and the rise of Zao Wang Dian were not of any concern to the three of them.

The most important thing right now is to find a way to resist the effects of the lotus seeds!

Otherwise, when the Azure Lotus Seed descends, the entire Yingfu Pagoda Realm will likely perish.

Shang Xi then spoke:
"Master Niu, please come with me to the outside of the city to set up the Sword-Sharpening Cliff so that Chi Miao and I can advance our sword qi."

"Chixiao, the rest is up to you to arrange."

Jing Qian nodded without saying anything more.

The old white ox readily agreed, picked up the millstone cliff, and fled outside the cowshed.

Before setting off, it also called back Tianyun Boy and carried him along.

This kid's cultivation speed is not slow. He has already refined his natal [Sword Box] and is about to condense his Dharma form.

Like an unwanted wild child, he wandered alone in the realm for several years, accompanied only by the old white ox.

This only son of the cow was finally able to meet the senior members of the sect, and he was quite excited.

The group arrived outside Yingdu and found a mountaintop where they erected the Sword-Sharpening Cliff.

Ignoring his companions' efforts to enhance their sword energy, Jing Qian plunged into the Pure Yang Cave and arrived at the Sword Lotus Pool, where he began to call for reinforcements.

Compared to Shangxi and Chimiao, he was the only one who had mastered spatial supernatural powers and could truly summon people to solve problems.

He used his own divine power as the Void Lord to sense the Sword Lotus Pool, and across infinite space and time, transmitted information about the Azure Lotus Seed to all the living Pure Yang Children.

This great swordsman is bullying the weak and has already reached the door. All you seniors of Chunyangzi, if you are still breathing, you must do something to stop him!
……

In one corner of the Dao Yuan Zhong Shen Tian, ​​Ren Chong was lying in a secluded cave, secretly recuperating from his injuries.

He was panting heavily, looking like he had exhausted himself to the limit.

Given Ren Chong's cultivation and combat strength, he has not been forced to this point for at least three thousand years.

A sword wound pierced through his chest, running from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, almost tearing his chest open.

It's truly unbelievable that he was so badly injured while fighting with someone!
However, despite his serious injuries, Ren Chong was in high spirits, looking like he had a great time fighting.

It seems he is quite satisfied with his opponent.

Just then, he received a message from his hometown through magical communication.

The ordeal that Jing Qian and the other two encountered instantly touched Ren Chong's heart.

Ren Chong is temporarily unable to make a move, not only because his injuries have not yet fully healed.

His exploration of the hidden secrets of the [Dao Yuan Zhong Shen Tian] is not yet over, and he has no plans to leave this forbidden land for the time being.

Before he came to the [Dao Yuan Zhong Shen Tian], when faced with Jing Qian's plea for help, he could only helplessly let him fend for himself, at most hoping to avenge him later.

Now that he has gained something from the [Dao Yuan Zhong Shen Tian], he can be of even greater help.

Ren Chong patiently transmitted two crucial inheritances for the Pure Yang Heaven back to Jing Qian through the connection of the Sword Lotus Pool. Meanwhile, Jing Qian received the inheritances from his ancestor Ren Chong and his eyes lit up.

He then promptly copied these two inheritances and passed them on to all the other [Chunyangzi].

Regardless of whether the other party was online or had interacted with him, he sent the inheritance to them.

These two inheritances are extremely important for the cultivation of all [Pure Yang Masters]!

It was a treasure that Ren Chong obtained by risking his life.

With these two inheritances, the tribulations facing Jing Qian and the other two can be considered resolved.

……

In the void, within a certain outer heaven, Zhu Yun and Luo Tian were having a barbecue.

In this celestial realm, there lives a Taotie demon, of considerable status and with a powerful bloodline.

In particular, the old boar demon with the "Seven-Character Stele" as its patriarch has achieved physical sainthood and possesses extremely strong combat power!
Zhu Yun went through a lot of trouble to finally kill the old Taotie and eat its meat.

Luo Tian also put in a lot of effort to dismember the Taotie, skewered two large kidneys and a bunch of fat, grilled them until they sizzled and dripped with oil, and smelled delicious.

The two were eating when Zhu Yun suddenly received a message from her hometown.

The two fundamental inheritances of the Pure Yang Heaven entered directly into his mind and consciousness.

He didn't even bother to eat the freshly grilled kidneys; he immediately began to meditate on the spot.

Unexpectedly, their own sect possessed such a legacy, which was extremely important to every [Pure Yang Master].

This lineage is perfectly suited to the cultivation of [Chunyangzi], and it is very easy to comprehend.

Zhu Yun grasped the basics in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and the skewers in front of her were still warm.

He rolled up his sleeves and devoured a few pieces of fried dough, then said:
"Old Luo, let's go back to the [Yingfutu Realm]. Chixiao will use his supernatural powers to guide us home!"

……

Just a few hundred million miles away from the [Mountain and River Map Universe], there exists a [Celestial Realm].

For the vast void, this almost means that the two are right next to each other.

This [Celestial Realm] has been one of the most important sites of the [Primordial Heaven]'s lineage since ancient times, and is called the [Primordial Prison].

This is a crucial location within the entire [Mountain and River Map Universe] for suppressing and refining powerful enemies; it is an extremely terrifying prison.

Inside is the Primordial Heaven's Five Great Primordial Formation, solidified by the advanced cultivators. This top-tier Primordial Creation Power serves as a crucial means to annihilate all enemies.

Deep within this Primordial Prison, a powerful swordsman of extraordinary masculinity is undergoing the most terrifying tribulation of his life.

He cultivated the Pure Yang lineage to its peak, and his magical power was the most Yang of all, the most ferocious of all, and the most rigid of all – the Primordial Yang.

He was relentlessly targeted by the Primordial Heaven, but with the help of the innate power of the Primordial Essence, he reversed Yin and Yang, transforming his pure Yang magic power into extreme Yin.

The matter was beyond repair; at this point, [Yuan Yang] had already completed the entire gender transformation process.

It has changed from yang to yin, from male to female, from straight to curved, and from one back to zero.

Just imagine how deep this grudge must be!

The female version of [Yuan Yang], harboring a surge of resentment, devotes all her energy and spirit to thinking about how to escape her predicament, how to avenge herself, and how to regain her lost male dignity.

But after his gender swap, almost all of his "destiny" and "intelligence" were ruined!
Ninety percent of his own combat power was gone, making it impossible for him to escape.

However, on this day, he inexplicably received a message from his hometown.

Two inheritances quietly entered his mind.

[Yuanyang] silently pondered, only to feel a glimmer of hope emerging from it.

He began to quietly accumulate strength in preparation for the future.

……

For Jing Qian, the two fundamental inheritances of Pure Yang Heaven passed down by Ren Chong were of extremely important significance, and their help to his cultivation was unimaginable.

The first line of inheritance is the "Pure Yang Sword-Giving Box Daoist Book," which is almost two sides of the same coin with the "Pure Yang Sword-Hiding Box Daoist Book," perfectly complementing each other.

That "Pure Yang Hidden Sword Box Daoist Book" is a "Spiritual Energy Forging Life" method that all cultivators of the Pure Yang Heaven must learn. The "Hidden Sword Box" that is created is the foundation of everyone's sword cultivation.

This "Pure Yang Sword Box Relinquishing Daoist Book" is extremely unique. It tells how senior Pure Yang sword cultivators discarded their own sword boxes, dismantled the original power within, and transformed it into nourishment to strengthen the sword boxes of their junior disciples.

According to the records in this Taoist book, if a Pure Yang sword cultivator were to unleash the fundamental sword energy accumulated throughout his life as his final trump card in a battle...

Then most of his life's cultivation would have been wasted, and he could have been reincarnated and started cultivating again.

Before reincarnation, it would be better to discard the sword box that he had painstakingly refined and use it to help his younger disciples refine swords.

In most cases, this is not a particularly important lineage of Taoist texts.

It can only be considered a useful supplement to the "Pure Yang Hidden Sword Box Daoist Book".

However, for the Pure Yang Heaven at this moment, this "Pure Yang Sword-Giving Box Daoist Book" has a different function!
The reason why the old white ox carries the Sword-Sharpening Cliff all day long is that, in essence, it is the transformation of the Pure Yang Sword Box, the natal sword of the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor.

This is a truly transcendent [Spiritual Treasure], a powerful treasure that is a whole level higher than a first-grade [Spiritual Mechanism].

Moreover, since the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor has already perished, the Pure Yang Sword Box is now ownerless.

Ren Chong suggested that the remaining members of the Chunyang Sect should directly use the "Chunyang Sword Box Daoist Manual" to dismantle the Chunyang Sword Box.

To date, all the sword cases in the possession of Chunyangzi were initially made from powder scraped off the Sword Grinding Cliff.

Once this Pure Yang Sword Box is dismantled, everyone's natal Sword Box will be greatly enhanced!
Everyone can immediately experience a qualitative change in their cultivation!
For the current [Pure Yang Heaven], this is definitely an operation worth trying.

On this point, neither the three Pure Yang Masters in the Yingfu Pagoda Realm nor the other Pure Yang Masters scattered throughout the void, all suffering from calamities, would have any objection.

The second Daoist book passed down by Ren Chong was an even more important opportunity for Jing Qian than the "Pure Yang Sword Box Daoist Book".

The second book, "The Pure Yang Sun-Shooting Daoist Book," is actually the true secret technique of "Star-Picking" passed down by the Pure Yang Heaven.

This inherited Daoist scripture allows Chunyangzi to abandon his many destiny stars and instead use the sun as his means of advancement during the process of ascending to the Star-Picking realm.

You must understand that every great sun in the void is an incredibly unique existence!
Unlike the "Destiny Star," which requires grading and careful nurturing before it can be used for cultivation.

Every sun is inherently connected to the "Sea of ​​Primordial Qi," possessing boundless primordial energy that originates from its core. After being tempered by the true flames of the great sun, it transforms into abundant sunlight that nourishes all things and shines upon the human world.

If we were to assign a ranking to the sun, then every sun would be at least a hundred times stronger than the [main star].

Such a powerful and massive celestial body could never be subdued by a cultivator in order to advance to the fourth rank without a truly profound and inherited technique.

This undoubtedly highlights the unparalleled power of the "Pure Yang Heaven" Daoist scripture, "Pure Yang Shooting the Sun".

Turning the impossible into the possible, shooting down a great sun instead of plucking stars.

For the Pure Yang Masters, their fourth-grade cultivation level is completely different from that of most cultivators; it could perhaps be described as "shooting the sun" rather than "plucking stars."

No wonder the Pure Yang Heaven has never cultivated its own Destiny Star since it was still the Divine Heaven of the Dao Abyss 100,000 years ago.

They wanted to advance to perfection, so they had to go into the void and shoot down a great sun.

To advance to the fourth rank of "Sun Shooting" with such a powerful "Taoist scripture" naturally involves extremely powerful divine abilities.

Upon advancing to the fourth rank, the cultivator will condense [Immortal Spiritual Energy] for the first time, completely breaking the shackles on their magical power.

For an ordinary cultivator to pluck a "Life Star" and condense a "Minor Immortal Spiritual Energy" with dozens of layers, it is already quite difficult.

If it were [Chunyangzi] who swallowed the sun to become [Sun Shooting], he would have a stronger innate connection with the [Sea of ​​Primordial Qi], and condensing high-level [Golden Immortal Spiritual Qi] would be a piece of cake.

Some with profound foundations can even condense immortal energy to protect themselves during the [Sun Shooting] stage, thus starting their path to becoming a first-rank great power ahead of time.

Currently, among all the Pure Yang Masters, only Jing Qian stands at the threshold of advancing to the Sun-Shooting Master level.

The appearance of this inherited Taoist text can be described as a special favor granted to him.

He was originally worried about where to find a suitable "Destiny Star", and even considered going back to the "Star Ranch" of the "Boundless Heavenly Dynasty" to rob a spot and then run away.

But at this moment, he no longer needs to reach for the stars.

Compared to the scarce "Destiny Star" needed for most people to advance their careers, the sun in the void is plentiful.

No one would dare to compete with Jing Qian for him!

Moreover, within the [Mahakala] that he has already seized, there are already a hundred great suns, ready for you to pluck!
With just a flash, he can walk to the sunny side of the [Great Black Heaven] and directly initiate the fourth-grade [Sun Shooting] advancement!

Jing Qian was already quite impatient.

However, he cannot simply leave now; the demolition work of [Pure Yang Cave Heaven] still requires his presence.

Moreover, this was also an extremely important opportunity for him to cultivate.

Disassemble the [Sword Box] first, then advance to the next level!

Jing Qian has already made all the arrangements for what needs to be done next.

As for the [Qinglianzi] who was about to attack, there were tall people to handle him.

He then used the wonders of the [Sword Lotus Pool] to fully activate his spatial abilities, connecting with the spatial beacon evolved from the bamboo cloud across an infinite distance.

A void wormhole quietly appeared above the [Sword Lotus Pool].

Not long after, Zhu Yun came out from inside, carrying a large handful of fragrant fried dough sticks, smiling broadly.

Behind him, Luo Tian carried a whole Taotie pig's head, planning to braise a plate of pig's head meat later and make a batch of sesame seed cakes to eat with it.

Upon seeing the visitor, Jing Qian hurriedly spoke:
"Master, please oversee the dismantling of the Pure Yang Sword Box!"

Zhu Yun nodded and continued:

"Your cultivation levels are insufficient, so only I can handle this!"

"However, we still need to find a place to store the many sect facilities hidden in this Pure Yang Cave Heaven."

Upon hearing this, Jing Qian's thieving eyes gleamed, and he began to speak:
"Master, leave this matter to me."

"I have plenty of room to store it!"

After saying that, he clapped his hands lightly, and 100,000 garbage collectors reappeared, filling a small portion of the Pure Yang Cave Heaven with their combined power.

Jing Qian continued:

“Master, I can use my supernatural powers to properly store the many treasures in the Pure Yang Cave.”

"Moreover, it will not affect the use by other disciples or seniors at all."

"I can even guarantee that no matter where you seniors are, you can log in remotely and use many facilities without being restricted by space."

"I call this method the 'cloud deployment' of the Pure Yang Cave Heaven, and I guarantee it will not disappoint my fellow disciples!"

By this point, Jing Qian's ears were red, his breathing was rapid, and his face was pale with anxiety.

Being able to move the Pure Yang Cave to my own home would be a dream come true!
(Celebrating the 200th chapter!)
