My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 39: Your swordsmanship talent also means you never forget your original intention

The key to cultivation in the Outer Appearance Realm lies in the concentration of the thirty-three orifices. With a dozen or so orifices, one can reach the Upper Outer Appearance Realm; with twenty-one orifices, one can glimpse the Outer World Realm.

And it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to condense the secret of the Dharma.

"I don't need to worry about the natural resources and treasures I need, so I will just concentrate on practicing." Bai Chijing thought so and did so.

The first thing he did after leaving Zhaotian Tower was to find himself a new place to practice.

To be precise, it is a cave in the outer realm.

Because the training residences in the belly of the mountain are only prepared for disciples in the entry-level stage.

Even the most spiritually rich place in the belly of the mountain could not satisfy the cultivation needs of an Outer Appearance Realm cultivator. Once one entered the realm of cultivation, many things would be completely different from before.

Although the amount of spiritual energy does not have much impact on Bai Chijing, he must not behave too differently in this regard.

The external realm is only the entry stage of the path of cultivation. Therefore, no matter how outrageous or unbelievable Bai Chijing's performance is, because there is the poem written by the Heavenly Official to support it, and there were even more incredible experiences of predecessors in the Yaotian Realm before, it can be perfectly explained by the phrase "extraordinary talent in swordsmanship" or "extraordinary talent in alchemy".

After all, if you are not talented enough, you are not qualified to have the Heavenly Official write a poem for you!

But this external state is not enough.

This is the entry-level stage on the path of cultivation!

Unless Bai Chijing could write another poem for himself, that is, add two more lines after "Once he breaks free from the barriers, his voice will shock the world", extending the original two lines of poetry to four lines, then it can barely be considered an article.

For a person who can have a poem written by a heavenly official, even if he cultivates to the outer world realm within ten years, it is considered normal in the eyes of this world.

There won't be any doubt about this.

Yes, it’s not that I don’t dare, but that I can’t!

"The secret of the Dharma is like the map of destiny, appearing in the void and reflecting the virtual appearance." This was a volume of "Record of Ten Thousand Swords" that Bai Chijing brought with him when he was reading the cultivation resources sent to him by his uncle Shi Jingye.

It records eighteen kinds of sword forms, and these eighteen kinds of sword forms have special condensed external methods in Tujian Mountain.

Naturally, without exception, they are all superior methods.

The Ten Thousand Swords Phase can change into any of the eighteen sword phases, and after the change, it directly possesses the power corresponding to that sword phase.

Just watching, Bai Chijing couldn't help feeling a little confused.

"The sword is divinely aware, felt by the spirit, forged by the soul. This sword is invisible, it kills without injuring anyone."

"Why does this sword phase look like a Yuanshen sword technique that's been cut in half?"

Bai Chijing has mastered the twelve most evil sword techniques, so his judgment in this regard is naturally correct.

The Yuanshen Sword Dao is just as strange and even more terrifying than the Divine Consciousness Sword Form. It concentrates the eyes and transforms them into a killing sword. Those who have mastered this sword art can often kill thousands of enemies with just a glance, even from thousands of miles away.

Sometimes, even those at the same level find it difficult to resist such a murderous sword in the eyes and will be severely injured in an instant.

If one's cultivation is insufficient, their soul will continue to wither after being severely damaged, and they will die in agony little by little. Of course, if they can obtain some panacea for this, then they can naturally prolong their lives.

Even in the process of prolonging life, the pain will not only not decrease, but will continue to increase, and will occur every few days, just like the monk Sha who was stabbed in the heart by the heavenly sword in the quicksand.

Bai Chijing continued to read.

Then the more he looked, the more familiar it became. Among the eighteen kinds of sword forms, twelve of them actually showed some traces of the great evil sword art.

For example, this spiritual sword image can show the shadow of the soul sword art.

The Dragon Controlling Sword Form showed some traces of the Dragon Fighting Sword Art. The mighty Xuan Yuan Sword Form was similar to the Soul Slaying Sword Art.

The Small Destruction Sword Form is similar to the Line Body Sword Technique that specifically cuts through the flesh.

The Great Nirvana Sword Form seems to have copied the Luofa Sword Art no matter how you look at it, because it also emphasizes breaking all the laws with one sword.

……

In addition to these twelve, the other six types, although not related to the twelve kinds of great evil sword arts, are very much like derivatives of the twelve kinds of great evil sword arts.

"Could it be that the source of Tujian Mountain's inheritance is those ancient sword cultivators in the Weeping Sword Valley?" Bai Chijing couldn't help but think so, but when he thought about it carefully, the rumors about Tujian Mountain could reach the ears of heaven, and several of the past leaders had participated in the fairy banquet in heaven, so he felt that this guess was unlikely.

After all, if it is still connected to the heaven, then there wouldn't be so many ancient swordsmen being killed in the Weeping Sword Valley.

Soon, Bai Chijing no longer cared about this matter, and he devoted himself to meditation.

Naturally, he performed as usual.

Very stable.

As a faint golden aura evaporated, it then entered the bead in the palm of the hand like a hundred birds returning to their nests. The thing that looked like an eye in it suddenly moved slightly.

Words began to emerge.

Today, you attempted to comprehend the Record of Ten Thousand Swords, but aside from the increasing familiarity, you truly could not comprehend anything. Despite possessing the twelve fierce sword arts, your swordsmanship talent remains unwavering.

[Refine, gain the sword practice insight of never forgetting your original intention +1]

The text has faded.

Bai Chijing also began to integrate this understanding of cultivation into himself.

It must be said that although Bai Chijing's talent in swordsmanship is comparable to that of rotten wood and is the most ordinary in the world, as he mastered the twelve kinds of fierce swordsmanship and began to practice in the external realm, his swordsmanship has indeed improved a little bit.

For example, he can now successfully cultivate supernatural powers such as flying with a sword in the external realm within a few months by himself!

This is a huge improvement.

The only drawback is that Bai Chijing's current ability to comprehend the external world makes him look like a fool.

Bai Chijing still has 29 days of meditation time in the Sword Transmission Hall, but because he has broken through to the External Appearance Realm, Tu Jianshan has decided to change this reward to a three-day training trip to the Sword Immortal Realm.

The Sword Immortal Realm is called a realm, but in fact it is just a special island floating in the sky.

It is said that it was transformed from a fairy island that fell from the sky.

This island was ownerless, filled with countless domineering and ferocious sword energies. These sword energies were naturally no ordinary sword energies, as even a land-based immortal like the Outer Heaven Realm would be severely injured by the sword energy if they were not careful.

But fortunately, although these sword energies are domineering and fierce, they are not completely unreasonable, or rather, there are patterns to follow.

As long as these rules are followed, people from the outer world can go to the island to practice.

Therefore, this kind of reward specially prepared for cultivators in the Outer Appearance Realm was derived.

This news was not told by Shi Jingye to Bai Chijing, but was specifically told to Bai Chijing by his uncle Su Guilong when Bai Chijing was looking for his cave in the outer realm.

The proposer of this reward was Su Chengwu’s elder father—Su Kongjing!
