The first snowfall in winter.
Xia Ji served it with mutton soup and lived a lonely winter.
While he was drinking the soup, he would scatter a handful of spiritual flowers into the lake. The red-tailed fish would eat happily, and so would he.
He drank up the hot soup happily, read a few more books, and then went to the outside world through the transfer station in the underworld under the bed.
He revealed the Buddha's Dharmakaya and exercised his Dharmakaya in the gradually "upgrading" world of fire demons.
The Dharmakaya appears for the first time.
The Dharma orifice is opened.
As soon as the Dharma vein comes out.
Two out…
…
As he improves, the power that the dharma body can exert becomes stronger and stronger. He has probably calculated that the opening of each level of dharma orifice or dharma vein can increase the power by about three levels on the original basis.
In other words, when the Dharmakaya state is completely perfected, the power that can be exerted will be at least four times as much as before.
He practiced alone in the depths of the Tribulation Land with extremely high efficiency.
After all, no one in this world except him can really completely ignore the fire demon. He is practicing at a speed with "invisibility" on.
Deep in the Tribulation Land, he also saw Liuli, who was busy devouring and becoming stronger.
The little fire crow became more and more beautiful, dancing in the air with its gorgeous tail, and brilliant streams of fire flowed from it, as bright as the stars in midsummer.
He also saw the mirage, and the mirage began to be surrounded by invisible fire demons. These invisible fire demons were far more powerful than ordinary fire demons. If they went to the human world, it would be an absolute disaster.
Mirage Lord, however, did not want to pay attention to him at all.
Perhaps in his opinion, this Black Emperor is the most crooked Black Emperor he has ever seen.
When the two met by chance, they just passed by each other and pretended not to see each other.
Xia Ji's upgrade method is like gaining unlimited experience in a super-level abyss dungeon, and even if the BOSS of this dungeon sees him, he turns a blind eye.
He improved faster than anyone else.
Others need to carefully "pull monsters and then kill them", but he just kills them directly in the pile of monsters.
Day after day, year after year.
The endless fire demon,
The human heart cannot be seen through.
In early spring, Xia Ji finally broke through the sixth minor realm of Dharmakaya, opened four Dharma veins, and nearly doubled his original strength.
He made a new pot of tea, stood by the lake in Chunyu, saw the beautiful red-tailed fish, and threw the spiritual fruit to it.
The spiritual fruit entered the water and made a slight "fluttering" sound.
But in the distance, there was the sound of many small boats paddling.
Xia Ji followed the sound and saw that the disciples were back.
Seventy-two people, not one missing.
After this year, the faces of these disciples are full of hardships, but they have matured a lot compared to last year. This kind of maturity is not secular maturity, but they have gone deeper on their own destiny.
There are always two types of maturity.
One is to obey the world.
One is to obey yourself.
Disciples, fortunately it is the latter.
"I've met the master!"
The seventy-two disciples all bowed their heads.
Xia Ji looked at them with a smile. He didn't say anything sensational, but simply said: "Go practice."
"Yes, Master!!"
The seventy-two disciples were about to leave.
Xia Ji said: "Wait a moment."
All the disciples paused.
Xia Jidao: "From today on, you can go out as you like. If you become famous outside, just stay outside. If you have someone you like outside, then get married and start a career.
There are only three requirements for being a teacher.
First, don’t fight against each other.
Second, morality must not be violated.
Third, you cannot claim to others that you are my disciple. "
The disciples were stunned for a long time, but finally they all knelt down and worshiped in the spring rain, bowing to the man who was still drinking tea in the pavilion.
They may have really made a name for themselves outside, and even gained a huge reputation, and were recruited by many people. No one dared to disrespect him wherever they went, but facing this man, they were just disciples.
If it weren't for Xia Ji, they would have died quietly in the sacrifice more than ten years ago.
Xia Ji accepted their obeisance calmly.
Watching them getting wet in the spring rain made them miserable.
It wasn't until a long time that he smiled and said, "Let's all go."
All the disciples had gone, but only one young man was still standing still.
Xia Ji asked: "Chuixue, are you okay?"
Feng Chuixue said: "Teacher, can I see you use your sword once?"
As soon as he said it, Xia Ji understood that this child had a strong fear because he was afraid that he would not meet an opponent in the world. He was afraid that if he could not find an enemy, he would go downhill in the future and lose everything in the future. direction.
That's why he came to invite himself, to see how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, so that he can know how far he has come.
A teacher is indispensable for a person. If you have a teacher, you will know what is appropriate.
Enemies are also indispensable. Only when there are enemies can we understand the strength and weakness.
However, both divisions and enemies are extremely difficult to find.
Feng Chuixue's vision is not high yet, and at this time, he doesn't want to be complacent, because he knows that he is not qualified to be satisfied, so he begs the teacher to help him see the future.
Xia Ji said: "Okay."
Then the wind and snow began to wait quietly.
But Xia Ji said: "Not at this time, not here."
Feng Chuixue widened her eyes curiously.
Xia Ji smiled and said, "At the third watch tomorrow, I will take you to Tianqiong Mountain."
The terrain of Tianqiong Mountain is rugged and barren, with no people living within a hundred miles.
The swamps are overgrown with insects and wild beasts. They are places where bandits hide and where people in the world gain experience.
Feng Chuixue stopped asking and nodded: "Understood."
He turned and left, his heart suddenly filled with anticipation.
However, not far away, there were several pairs of ears quietly pricking up, listening to the conversation between the two.
After listening, he quietly left.
…
…
It's still dark.
Xia Ji had already stood by the lake with an umbrella.
The wind and snow came earlier. He might have been sitting in the pavilion since midnight, crossing his legs and closing his eyes to adjust his breath all night long. He might also be thinking about what kind of sword the teacher would use.
Hearing the footsteps, Feng Chuixue turned his head and saw the familiar figure, and he hurriedly stood up.
"Let's go."
"is teacher."
The master and apprentice left Jinghu Lake.
Go all the way south.
Both of them are extremely fast, even a thousand-mile horse cannot be as fast as them.
Xia Ji had already adapted to this speed, while Feng Chuixue followed expressionlessly. As long as he didn't faint, he didn't show any signs of tiredness.
Four hours later, the spring light has fallen on the mountains and forests ahead.
The high mountains are located among dotted wetlands, and the slightly distorted fog reflects on the sparkling light, giving it a dizzying flavor.
The master and the apprentice stood at the entrance of the mountain.
Xia Ji paused and shouted: "Everyone, come out."
Behind them, two people immediately ran out.
It was Xu Lingling and Xie Qiongfeng, both of them laughing.
Xia Ji knew that there were others, but these two were the only ones following him, so he said, "Let's come together."
Xu Lingling and Xie Qiongfeng's eyes showed joy.
Xu Lingling said with an innocent look: "The teacher is so kind."
These four words made Xie Qiongfeng's skin crawl. He knew what Xu Lingling was like when she was killing people, so he felt extremely cold at this moment.
Xia Ji suddenly asked: "Did Lingling grow taller again?"
Xu Lingling jumped to his side and responded arrogantly: "Yes!!"
Xia Ji found that this female disciple was taller than him, probably 2.5 meters tall now, and as strong as a super tank with thick armor. He smiled: "It's time to lose weight, Ling Ling."
Xu Lingling was stunned for a moment. She naturally knew that the teacher knew who she was, but it was her nature to be naive in front of the teacher, but the teacher could still treat her so calmly and truly as an ordinary girl. As she spoke, she couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart.
"Teacher, it's so easy to lose weight. Even if I don't eat or drink, I will keep getting fat just by breathing..."
Xia Ji smiled and said: "Come on, every fat man has great potential, Lingling, I'm optimistic about you."
Xu Lingling said: "Yes! Teacher!"
The conversation between the two made Xie Qiongfeng on the side feel like a spring breeze, and he sighed "It's great" from the bottom of his heart.
I am truly lucky to have such a teacher.
No matter what kind of disciples they are, they can surround him and teach him regardless of class, that's all.
The four of them headed to the top of the mountain.
There were also blind bandits along the way, but there was no need for Xia Ji or even Feng Chuixue to take action. Xu Lingling and Xie Qiongfeng killed the approaching bandits in advance.
Xu Lingling is a murder expert.
Although Xie Qiongfeng doesn't like killing people very much, he doesn't know how to do it.
Neither Xu Lingling nor Xie Qiongfeng would allow these blind bandits to appear in front of Xia Ji.
soon,
The four of them arrived at the top of Tianqiong Mountain.
Thousands of peaks and mountains, like a sea of swords spread out, the sky light pierces from all directions and falls on this place.
At this time, on the mountainside, Nian Ying's chest was rising and falling.
Crawling panting,
She was famous among many disciples for her movement skills and dexterity. She was already extremely fast, but she still couldn't keep up with the four people.
At this time, she put her left hand on her hips, fanned herself with her right hand, and then burst out at extremely fast speed again, shooting toward the top of the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, there were still five or six vague figures, who had just arrived.
Farther away, there were more than a dozen figures running wildly like wild dogs that were about to become paralyzed from exhaustion.
The world fell into a certain silence for a while.
The wind blew the snow, Xu Lingling and Xie Qiongfeng held their breaths and watched and listened quietly.
Xia Jidao: "The strength of the sword, the Qi of the sword, the intention of the sword, and the appearance of the sword respectively correspond to the four acquired realms, the four innate realms, the ultimate intention, and the Dharma phase.
The fire tribulation is a tribulation, but it is also an opportunity for the bloodline to revive.
If there is a further step in the future, it should be the Dharmakaya wielding the sword. It is a pity that the teacher cannot break through the eleventh realm and awaken the bloodline. I am afraid that I will not be able to reach that step. "
Xu Lingling said hurriedly: "Teacher, this can't happen... You are so strong, you won't be able to break through the eleventh realm. This is just accumulation. The deeper the accumulation, the more violent the explosion."
Xia Ji glanced at his disciple with a smile, he was quite good at comforting people.
Xie Qiongfeng also said: "Teacher, if you can't break through the eleventh realm, I will think that no one in this world is qualified to break through."
Feng Chuixue was not very good at talking, but she quickly said: "Teacher, I can't."
Xia Ji casually inserted the black sword and thunder fire into the rock on the side, raised his hands and said, "How is this world?"
Without waiting for the three disciples to answer, he said: "It's vast and majestic, with intertwined spaces and flowing through the ages.
It's a pity that you can't see it.
Because you are at the bottom of a well. "
The three of them were stunned.
Xia Ji said calmly: "Watch carefully the sword of my master, and use this sword as a guide. Whether you can see the world outside the well depends on your own luck."
The words fell.
He took a casual step forward.
A layer of Dharma appeared behind him,
Before the Dharma was exhausted, another rebirth was born.
Before the heavy rain, two drops of rain dropped tentatively from the sky, and immediately after, the dharma behind him appeared at an extremely fast speed.
One weight after another, one weight after another.
The pressure overturned one side, the momentum caused the mountain wind, whirlpools appeared, and the sky and the earth were blown by strong winds. Together with the sunlight, everything rotated.
All the light was lost, and the center of the world seemed to be the man on the top of the mountain, and everything was spinning around him.
The Dharma image behind him was like a peacock in full bloom, filling the sky.
The three disciples were stunned.
Nian Ying on the mountainside was stunned.
The disciples at the foot of the mountain and those who had not yet reached the foot of the mountain quickly fell silent and stopped to look up.
They all knew that the teacher had taken action.
Xia Ji grabbed the black sword Thunder Fire, and swung the long sword. The endless lightning arcs on the long sword suddenly boiled. The violent energy was restrained in the small blade, and many magic signs filled the air with Xia Ji's arm. blade.
"There are images in heaven and earth, and all dharmas are unified into one image. Now I have read all the dharmas and polished them into one image. One image is like a sword."
Xia Ji didn't even look at it, and just waved the knife casually.
One knife,
This allows all the violent power to find an outlet.
One knife,
It turned into a thousand-foot-long thunder, like an angry god bringing natural disasters to the world. It turned into a giant hand of thunder and lightning with its supreme power, and struck down among the peaks.
Bang! ! !
An indescribable loud noise, an indescribable power.
This knife,
Cutting through the whirlpool of air,
Cutting through the distant peaks,
Cutting through the sky's falling light,
All in one fell swoop.
The peaks in the distance have been divided in the middle, and the peaks are split in two places. The rocks are rolling like thunder. There are still thunder arcs jumping between the mud and rocks. There is still irrepressible energy hidden in these mud and rocks. They rolled for a moment. This was followed by another exaggerated explosion.
All things return to dust.
After a long time, the sound slowed down, and there was still smoke and dust in the distance.
Xia Ji sheathed his sword, and the pride in the hearts of the three disciples beside him was instantly shattered.
In the face of such power, what else do they have to be proud of
How far do they still have to go
Xie Qiongfeng smiled bitterly.
Xu Lingling's lips were open and not yet closed.
Something burned again in Feng Chuixue's eyes, with boundless enthusiasm. His eyes followed that knife, as if he wanted to follow that knife, treating that knife as his lover, his wife, and his future.
He rushed to the edge of the cliff, looked at the smoke and dust that had not dispersed from a distance, and gasped excitedly, "Is this... is this the world outside the well? Is this it?"
Xia Ji said lightly: "Yes."
Feng Chuixue knelt on the ground, "It's great, it's really great."
He couldn't help crying.
No one knew why he was crying.
But Xia Ji understood.
He said softly: "There is fire in the martial arts hall. If you practice beside the fire, you can awaken your bloodline.
Before and after your awakening, you only need to select the three methods of essence, energy, and spirit from your master's "Image of the World" and practice them to the peak. Then you can majesticly break through the eleven realms and develop the Dharmakaya.
From now on, I will go and see the scenery that I have never seen before. "
