Demon Sword Immortal

"Is it done?"

Bai Shengju's voice came from inside the house.

"All right."

Bai Xiang replied.

"Then now! Immediately!... Practice sword meditation!"

Bai Shengju sat alone in the room, his eyes gleaming as he spoke.

"Everyone knows that women have congenital structural deficiencies, making it twice as difficult to achieve half the results in sword practice and the pursuit of Tao! But few people know that before nourishing the spirit and replenishing the body, a secret method can be used to lock the yin and slay the dragon!"

"The medicine I brewed for you is a secret family recipe passed down through generations!"

"It will be very painful, but your aunt went through this process back then too!"

"hold onto!"

I hope you can pull through!

Chapter Twenty-Five: Divine Soul Illuminates the Scene

As Bai Shengju spoke, Bai Xiang had already assumed the unique posture of practicing sword meditation.

With only the toes supporting the ground on one leg, the whole body seems to be sitting in the air, floating like a dream in the sky.

This posture was passed down from the Shenming Dojo. It is said that one cannot do it without entering the Dao, and even after entering the Dao, it is very difficult to achieve the standard. One must cultivate from a young age and develop muscle memory while the body is still flexible.

This body was trained in this way, and with the woman's flexible body, it should have been easy for her to do the poses, but as soon as Bai tried to do it this time, she felt a stinging pain in all her joints.

My body felt like a rusty machine.

The ointment seemed to be seeping into her skin and flesh, its presence like something stuck in the machine, making her feel her whole body heat up as she posed, accompanied by waves of tearing pain.

But the results were very good.

The posture of practicing sword meditation can accelerate the flow of mental energy throughout the body, speeding up the efficiency of nourishing the body. With the help of the ointment, it releases even more warm currents, like a raging fire spreading throughout the body.

Every time such a flame leaps to a certain spot, that spot feels extremely itchy.

No part of the body was spared: face, arms, soles of feet, lower abdomen.

In particular, the ointment she ingested seemed to add a huge amount of fuel to the fire.

The flames, carrying the medicinal properties, surged into his lower abdomen, causing alternating cycles of burning, pain, itching, and numbness—a torment that Bai Xiang could not bear.

Such pain is beyond the endurance of ordinary people.

Bai Xiang finally understood why Bai Shengju sounded somewhat nervous.

The saying that women are born with a deficiency, and that practicing swordsmanship and seeking the Tao is twice as difficult but half as effective, probably refers to the fact that women have menstruation every month, which causes them to lose some of their vital energy and blood.

Such losses occur more than ten times a year, and in the same amount of time, women naturally cannot match men in their cultivation.

Their physical abilities and strength are already inferior, and this part is further reduced, which makes female swordsmen rare, and those who have achieved success in their training are even rarer.

"Locking Yin and Slaying Dragon" likely refers to using a secret method to lock down this portion of Yin energy, temporarily stopping the loss of Qi and blood.

This is also explained in the Taoist canon.

Slaying dragons? What kind of dragons are you slaying?

Menstrual blood red dragon.

Only by preventing the loss of this vital energy and blood can the body cultivate itself to be without leakage, and only then can there be a possibility of further seeking the Great Dao.

But Grandpa definitely underestimated me...

Maintaining his bizarre posture of sword meditation, Bai Xiang sat upright in the air, enduring alternating pains, yet his expression remained remarkably calm.

pain.

What pain can compare to being diagnosed with a terminal illness, losing a childhood sweetheart, and being betrayed by friends?

What kind of suffering can compare to becoming a cripple, waking up in the middle of the night, secretly heartbroken?

This level of torment is less than one percent of what I experienced in my previous life.

not to mention--

Her mind was shaken. From a perspective that only Bai Xiang could see, her spirit and soul suddenly flew out of her body and landed on the opposite side.

Maintaining the same sword meditation posture, the soul coldly observes its own body, yet the eyes cannot penetrate the barrier of skin and flesh.

At that moment, the divine soul remotely controlled the physical body to open its eyes and clearly saw that inside the head of the opposing divine soul and spiritual body, there was a glowing seed!

The seed of the mind!

She actually saw with her naked eye something that ordinary people could hardly see, and even that ordinary seekers of the Dao could hardly perceive!

The spiritual body is translucent, and the seed of the mind shines within the spiritual body's head, with liquid light constantly flowing out from it, turning into tiny tributaries that run through the body's meridians.

The two Bai Xiang simultaneously observed each other's bodies, their physical bodies imprinting their mental images, and their mental images reflecting their physical bodies, gradually penetrating the inner landscape of the entire body, even revealing the location of every single capillary in their minds.

So, can I control the effects of the medicine?

I tried it, and it really works.

Without hesitation, Bai Xiang actively used his consciousness and thoughts to guide the medicinal power, trying his best to move the medicinal power throughout his body to his lower abdomen.

The Bai family's secret medicine may involve a certain element of luck, and it is not guaranteed to slay the dragon.

The person who created this secret method certainly could not have foreseen that someone would operate it in such a cheating way.

And it's not just used to lock the Yin and slay the dragon!

Even after his spirit returned, Bai Xiang could still clearly glimpse all the interior scenes.

Having just heard Bai Shengju explain the method of cultivating the spirit, she took advantage of this opportunity to transport the mental energy that had been nourished by the medicine to the surface of her skin and directly began cultivating the second stage of the spirit cultivation.

Time passed... Bai Shengju hid in the room, feeling restless and anxious.

He certainly had reason to be uneasy.

When he was presiding over the secret technique for Bai Nianchan, he hid inside the house in the same way.

Men and women should not touch each other. Even if he is his own father, it is still inappropriate to watch such a scene.

But he can always hear the sound, right?

While Nianchan persisted, she was in so much pain that she kept letting out unbearable screams until her voice became hoarse. It took her half a month to recover.

And what about Xiang'er?

Why didn't she call out?

It's been almost two hours, why is there still no sound?

Could she have fainted from the pain?

Bai Shengju was in extreme distress, genuinely regretting not calling Bai Zhuqing or Bai Leying to help supervise the relay of messages.

If Bai Xiang hadn't suddenly realized that Bai Shengju might be worried and told him, he would definitely have rushed out to check on him without hesitation.

But why did she sound so relaxed?

With that nonchalant tone, he said, "I didn't make any mistakes in the steps of brewing the medicine, did I?"

While Bai Shengju was questioning his existence, outside, Bai Xiang was undergoing a miraculous transformation.

The medicinal properties of the ointment were gradually absorbed, turning into residue that fell off, revealing the exquisite body sitting upright in the air.

Her figure became more flexible than ever before.

My hair has become shinier than ever before.

Her skin has become a bit fairer.

Her thighs are a bit rounder.

Her figure has become more graceful and upright.

Most importantly, with the support of mental focus and the effects of the medicine, the skin and flesh of the whole body become more refined, and when exerting force, only a slight muscle tension can be seen.

This removes all unnecessary outward appearances of cultivation.

All hidden injuries and ailments were worn away.

The yin essence is locked in and nourishes the physical body.

Sever the red dragon, without missing a single piece.

The mind, spirit, and body should embrace the unity of all things.

At this point, she had reached the third stage of cultivating her spirit.

The first and second stages of skin training have been largely completed, and the muscle training has been halfway through.

Moreover, she sensed that this was not the limit of her body.

Let's leave it at that for now.

He exhaled softly, and Bai tried to open his eyes.

Two beams of golden light suddenly shone in the courtyard, like a silent thunderclap in broad daylight, startling several flies and insects so much that they fell to the ground.

She straightened up, stepped barefoot onto the ground, raised her hand and clenched her fist, feeling an indescribable sense of refreshment and ease.

"That's enough, Grandpa."

After getting dressed, she immediately went to call Bai Shengju.

When Bai Shengju came out and saw her refreshed appearance, he was stunned for a moment, followed by overwhelming joy.

"Success?"

"Yes."

Bai nodded and bowed to him.

"Thank you grandpa."

"There are still some things I don't understand about meat processing, so please explain and guide me, Grandpa."

"well!"

"Hahaha! I miss my son! Good!"

Bai Shengju nodded in agreement without hesitation, then looked at Bai Xiang and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

But as he laughed, he reached up and wiped the corner of his eye.

Facing the sky.

I stared at the ever-changing white clouds for a long time.

Chapter Twenty-Six: A Mysterious Gift (Please add to your favorites and read on!)

For the next period of time, Bai Xiang stayed at home.

Her bedroom was on the far east side. Every morning at 4 o'clock, she would get up to practice sword meditation, cultivate her mind according to the method instructed by Bai Shengju, and then go to fetch water and tools to clean the practice area around 5 o'clock.

The Divine Cry Dojo is considered small in terms of its size, which includes several hundred people. It's naturally not efficient for her to clean it all by herself. However, she doesn't need to clean it all in one day; cleaning one area each day is sufficient.

Bai Xiang set a goal for himself: to clean the entire dojo within a week.

Her diligence made Xu Shu feel somewhat uncomfortable.

He used to do all these jobs. The temple reduced his fees so much because of his bad background, and also provided him with food and lodging. All he could give back to the temple was loyalty and diligence. Many of the cleaning and tidying jobs used to be done by Xu Shu and some disciples.

The temple is currently on holiday, and all the other disciples have gone home, except for Xu Shu, who is staying here.

He thought he could finally take care of all the chores and get to work, but he didn't expect that the senior sister of the dojo got up even earlier and did even more work than him.

Xu Shu was puzzled. Could this also be a form of cultivation?

He really doesn't understand; his overthinking is just making trouble out of nothing.

A person who had been bedridden for ten years due to ALS suddenly found herself not only regaining a healthy body, but also being able to seek the Dao and ask about immortality by refining this body.

Question: What is the thing she most wants to do?

Does he lock himself in his room all day to cultivate himself?
