[Wuwu, Year of the Horse, September 3rd]
I have abandoned the name of the Southern Branch of the Lu Clan, and the past is over. From today on, I will just be a demon cultivator Yuan Xin.
Crossing the Nether Sea and heading to the Shura Territory, this time you will be cut off from the world, with only the sword as your companion.
Thinking of Xiaobai and Jingshan, I felt sad and reluctant.
All suffering comes from our own lack of ability, remember this!
In the future, I will return to the blue sky. If others want to criticize me, they should first ask the sword in my hand.
…
[Wuwu, Year of the Horse, October 10]
With the help of the Pavilion Master, they finally broke through the blockade of the Nether Sea and reached the ancient Demon Realm Shura.
The sky here is stained with blood, cold winds are raging, and evil ghosts and zombies are endless.
The master said that the Shura Demon Realm is layered inward, and the ghost clan has set up eighteen levels of forbidden areas based on the Buddhist reincarnation hell, and raised different evil ghosts and zombies.
It is said that after the eighteenth floor is the entrance to the underworld.
I need to kill them layer by layer, accumulate the dark evil energy and refine the demonic energy, and find the remains of the Ice Demon's ancestor.
Cultivate magic pills, refine magic bodies, and forge magic swords.
The ghost realm is dangerous, but I am not afraid!
All the evil spirits and monsters will be destroyed with one sword!
…
[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, 15th day of the first lunar month]
The battle lasted for three months without stopping, during which more than a thousand long-tongued ghosts were killed on the first level, and more than fifty were injured. Finally, they reached the entrance to the second level of the Shura Domain.
Take a three-day break to refine the dark Yin evil spirit, and the late stage of foundation building is not far away.
…
[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, April 5th]
Almost died during the Qingming Festival!
In the middle of the second floor, you will encounter a ghost general who leads hundreds of ghosts to block the road. If you retreat, there will be no problem.
I don't want to do this, but today, I have stepped into the devil's path and there is no way back for me.
I still remember that when I was a child in Tianyan Sect, Master Fuyi wanted to take me in as a disciple. I didn’t know what to choose until I heard about Master Guanghan Jian and Master Jingshan.
A swordsman’s main focus is attacking. Once the sword is swung, mountains and rivers thousands of miles away will be broken, and nothing can stop it!
I am a magic cultivator, and even more so a sword cultivator.
After seven days of bloody battle, all the ghosts were slaughtered. He risked his life to fight against the ghost general, fought back in a desperate situation, and survived the danger.
If a swordsman has the intention to die, he will be successful in everything he does!
*
[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, May 20]
After a month of recuperation, he broke through and then stood up again. Today he entered the late stage of foundation building.
Broken bones are reshaped, old skin is replaced by new skin, and the body becomes stronger day by day.
I still remember that Xiaobai once told me about the matter of inducing lightning to strengthen the body in the Yinshan Mine. At that time, I thought Xiaobai was too reckless.
Now when I’m in a similar situation, I realize Xiaobai’s perseverance and determination.
A strong physique is the basis for survival.
Starting today, I will learn the demon race's body-building method.
…
[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, November 7th]
I have been trapped deep in the second floor for more than a month, with no entrance to the third floor in sight. I must be trapped in a maze.
If Xiaobai were here, he wouldn't have been stuck for so long.
I have been feeling restless and murderous these days, fighting evil spirits day after day until I am exhausted.
I was seriously injured today and could hardly walk. I was searching for elixirs in the storage bracelet when I suddenly saw a skylark puppet, and my mind instantly became clear.
Sit in a place sheltered from the wind and reflect on yourself.
I was too impatient and was corrupted by the devil, almost turning into a puppet that only knew how to kill.
A swordsman should cultivate his sword skills as well as his mind. Xiaobai once said that only with proper planning can one kill with one strike. Those who just rush forward with their heads down are reckless. She even teased Xie Jingshan at that time.
The tension in my heart gradually eased, and the suppressed weakness became uncontrollable. I didn't want to move forward anymore. I really missed them so much.
If you don’t practice Yuanxin today, just practice Anan for a moment, it only takes a moment.
I woke up from my dream and suddenly remembered what Xiaobai said, that walking with a blindfold can break the visual illusion.
[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, November 8th]
It turned out that the entrance to the third floor was right next to me.
Evil spirits have blinded my eyes, and evil thoughts have blinded my heart.
I am dominated by the devil's heart, rather than the devil's way dominating my way.
Whenever you encounter difficulties in the future, you must stop and think first. Things you do on impulse are often wrong.
Keep it in mind.
…
[Gengshen, Year of the Monkey, March 3rd]
After passing through three layers of iron pine forest, we encountered a blood river blocking the way and there was no boat to cross.
There are countless evil spirits in the blood river, and their resentment becomes a cloud that lingers all year round, rotting all the flesh and blood that touches it.
I forced myself to cross the river to kill the evil spirit, but my body couldn’t support it anymore and I had to retreat. How hateful!
The evil thoughts came back again and I acted impulsively again.
There is still plenty of dark evil energy here, and the iron trees are hard. Sword marks are left on them, making them difficult to cut down.
Find a safe place to stay temporarily, train your body and practice sword skills, and when your skills improve, you will fight again.
…
[Xinyou, Year of the Rooster, March 3rd]
After a year of hard training, he had killed all the ghosts in the iron pine forest. Now he could cut down more than ten iron trees with one sword, and could also hold out the blood river for two or three hours.
We encountered crises several times and were surrounded by danger.
Some broken magic weapons and bones were found in the center of the iron pine forest. After careful identification, they were found to be the remains of the human allied monks during the ghost tide in the Nether Sea.
I never thought that the seniors back then could actually reach the third level of Shura Domain.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I’ve been feeling like something is staring at me lately.
We will cross the blood river tomorrow and fight again on the fourth level of Shura Domain.
…
[Xinyou, Year of the Rooster, September 9th]
The fourth level of Shura Domain is very strange, and is somewhat similar to the place where the Ice Demon ancestors of Fengyun Society lived.
The ice clusters are connected in disorder, and there are different exits for entering and returning, so it is difficult to find the rules.
I found signs of human activity here.
…
[Renxu, Year of the Dog, February 23]
Someone secretly guided them to find the hidden altar of the Ice Demon.
After escaping death by the skin of his teeth, he broke through to the peak of foundation building before the battle, slashed the ice demon guard with his sword, and obtained a part of its remains.
Who is this person
Stay at the altar to heal your wounds and reforge the broken sword.
If you turn to the path of magic, you can devour everything and use it for your own benefit, without having to worry about being troubled by inner demons. This is truly domineering.
I don’t know if my current cultivation speed can catch up with Xiaobai. If Jingshan can accept help from his family, he will definitely not be slow either.
The road of devil is difficult, the night is lonely, only the memories of the past can warm my heart.
…
[Renxu, Year of the Dog, October 9th]
After many twists and turns, the secret accomplice was finally forced out, and she turned out to be the fallen Miaoyin Zhenren of Tianyan Sect.
I have heard that Miaoyin Zhenren and Guanghan Jianjun went in and out of the Nether Sea ghost tide together, and originally wanted to become Taoist companions after the ghost tide subsided.
Unexpectedly, the world is unpredictable, Miaoyin died, and Guanghan Sword Master's temperament changed drastically.
Today's Miaoyin has practiced the way of ghosts. When she saw me using the moves of Guanghan Sword Lord, she helped me secretly.
Miaoyin was thinking about Lord Guanghan Sword and wanted to ask me but didn't dare to.
There is a never-ending fight between the righteous and the ghost tribes, and it is unlikely that the relationship between the two will continue.
I learned from Miaoyin that there were a few righteous cultivators who were so obsessed with their beliefs that they became ghost cultivators.
There are still remnants of the ghost clan living in the Shura Realm on the fifth level, all of them are corpse cultivators and ghost cultivators.
Miaoyin advised me not to enter the fifth floor, as the ghost tribe has not seen any living people for many years.
…
[Guihai, Year of the Pig, May 30]
His whereabouts were leaked and he was besieged by dozens of ghost cultivators.
Between life and death, I allowed my murderous intent to corrode me, and I became possessed, and almost killed Miaoyin, who was trying to help me.
When I woke up, the ghost cultivator had been devoured by me, and his cultivation level had greatly increased.
The ice valley was filled with demonic energy, all things were polluted, and black snow fell from the sky for several days.
I heard the voice of the Ice Demon. She was waiting for me on the eighth floor.
As a swordsman, I only have the sword, the mind and myself. I can no longer retreat.
Like a sword in the hand, the back is straight and will break if it bends!
Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, once I overcome them, there will be a bright future ahead. If I cannot face death with a calm mind and break through my limits, I do not deserve the title of sword cultivator.
Killing is my destiny!
…
[Jia Zi, Year of the Rat, August 15]
With just one sword, I can kill through five levels. Anyone who can't kill me will be killed by me.
I was obsessed with evil thoughts and couldn't control my murderous intent. I was on the verge of death several times, and it was Miaoyin who helped me escape.
She also accompanied me through the six layers of sword mountains and the seven layers of fire seas.
The hardships and sufferings involved cannot be fully described in a few words.
Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, Miaoyin looks up at the sky with sadness.
The moon is bright over the sea, and lovers all over the world share this moment. Lovers complain about the long night, and miss each other all night long.
The sea is a dark sea of fire, the moon is a cloudy and bloody moon. I wonder if my old friends far away are doing well.
The ghost cultivators chased after him, fighting and retreating.
…
[Yichou, Year of the Ox, April 10th]
The magic body, magic pill and magic sword are all done!
Only one heart still has some light left, retaining my will.
Half a year ago, he sacrificed his own arm to repel the ghost cultivators in the sea of corpses, and used what he obtained in the Fengyun meeting as the key, and finally stepped into the Ice Demon inheritance cemetery.
He obtained all the inheritance of the Ice Demon, reshaped his demonic body, and formed a pill on the spot.
When the inner demon attacks, kill it with one sword.
I am the devil, how dare the inner devil come back
When he was forming the elixir, dangers were rife and he was nearly led by the ice demon and turned into a real demon.
Fortunately, the Pavilion Master gave me guidance back then, and I made up my mind to stick to my ambitions.
I wish to break through the other side of the void, prove the way of the sword in all the heavens and worlds, and become the number one swordsman in all the worlds. I will not become a demon until I reach this level!
After forming the elixir and coming out of retreat, Miaoyin said, “When I formed the elixir, the Nether Sea was frozen over and black snow fell from the sky for three months without stopping.”
Deep in the Shura Realm, the devil's eye opened to the sky, thousands of ghosts howled, and corpses knelt down, as if some relics had appeared in the world.
My journey continues!
