On the top of Yuquan Mountain, there are several dark clouds lingering in the sky.
In the gazebo at the foot of the mountain, a man and a woman were drinking tea leisurely, ignoring the dark clouds in the sky above the mountain.
"Fatty Jin, do you think brother can break through to the sword spirit realm this time?" Liu Yiyi said with a slight frown.
Hearing Liu Yiyi's question, Jin Xinxin said with a little respect: "Senior Liu is a master of the sword spirit realm, you don't know, how would I know. Besides, you have asked this question more than twenty times .”
Liu Yiyi stared intently at the dark clouds above the sky, and sighed, "I only took one pill of Hualing Pill to attack the sword spirit, and I succeeded in breaking through. But my brother has already taken more than 20 pills, why is there still nothing?" What about hitting the sword spirit realm?"
"Brother Lu is such a prodigal son! There are so many spirit pills, how many spirit stones do you get! The high-level people in the door are probably going to be very distressed." Jin Xinxin said with a face full of pain.
In the main hall tens of miles away from Yuquan Mountain, the four highest-level members of Yujianzong also looked at the direction of Yuquan Mountain with strange expressions on their faces.
"Junior Sister Bing, you need to refine some Spiritual Transformation Pills. Otherwise, this kid won't be enough." Master Shui joked.
When Master Bing heard this, there was a hint of blackness on his face that was originally as cold as ice, and he snorted coldly: "You can speak sarcastic words. I would not have promised to supply him with sufficient spiritual transformation pills if you hadn't urged me to do so. .”
"How did we know that this kid's aptitude is so poor. Others have at most five, but he has more than twenty, and he still hasn't broken through to the sword spirit realm." Yu Lingzi said lightly.
"Our sect still has a lot of spiritual transformation pill reserves, I still don't believe that we can't raise this kid to the realm of sword spirit." Master Huo said in a fit of anger.
The other three heard Master Huo's words, looked at each other in blank dismay, and could only give up with a wry smile.
Yu Lingzi looked in the direction of Yuquan Mountain and said in a low voice, "I hope he can catch up with this once-in-a-century trial."
In the secret room of Yuquan Mountain. Lu Yu was sitting cross-legged on a futon, his eyes were closed, and there were layers of sweat on his forehead.
Xia Lao stood not far from Lu Yu, looked at Lu Yu solemnly, and whispered to himself: "I didn't expect that the heart demon of Wanjian Jue is so powerful."
It turned out that Lu Yu started retreat five years ago. Three years later, relying on Guiyuan Pill to forcibly raise his cultivation level to the tenth level of swordsman Dzogchen. In the next two years, Lu Yu used Hualing Pill to continuously attack the bottleneck. A year later, he successfully broke through the bottleneck, but every time he was blocked by the inner demon of the last level. Has been unable to advance to the sword spirit realm.
Therefore, Lu Yu was in his last year. He also practiced the nameless method of cultivating the state of mind, and he did not cultivate the first level until today. Lu Yu couldn't wait to continue hitting the bottleneck, and everything went very smoothly.
Unknowingly, Lu Yu once again entered the last level of the bottleneck - the invasion of demons.
At this time, Lu Yu only felt that the surrounding scenery changed. I was riding a tall horse with a big red flower pinned to my chest, and a group of officials behind me were beating gongs and drums, holding high the words "the number one scholar returns to his hometown". He looked up and saw that Lujia Village was not far in front of him. You can vaguely see that there are many people there, and there should be many people waiting for you there.
There was a trace of confusion in Lu Yu's eyes. After a while, pictures appeared in his mind. It was him who entered Beijing for the college entrance examination, and no matter how he was named on the gold list, the emperor specially allowed him to return to his hometown to visit his relatives.
"So I won the number one prize? Why have I been in a daze recently?" Lu Yu tapped his head with a fan, as if he was a little depressed about his distraction just now.
Lu Yu soon rode to the entrance of the village. Men, women and children in Lujia Village basically stood at the entrance of the village to welcome him. His grandfather was standing in the crowd at this time, with Lu Yu's parents standing beside him.
Seeing this, Lu Yu quickly asked the servants beside him to help him off the horse. Lu Yu walked in front of his grandfather and parents in three steps at the same time, knelt down and kowtowed, "Yu'er pays homage to my grandfather, my lord father, and my lord mother!"
Mr. Lu helped Lu Yu up, and said with a smile, "Yu'er is now the No. 1 Scholar. He really honored our Lu family. Even if I die immediately, I can still smile."
"Grandfather, what are you talking about. Without your cultivation, Yu'er would not be where she is today." Lu Yu said softly, supporting Mr. Lu who was already walking a little tremblingly.
"Yu'er, you've lost weight and darkened again!" Lu Yu's mother looked at Lu Yu carefully, and said with some distress.
"What's wrong with black spots? That's the way to be considered a man." Lu Yu's father looked at his dark skin and laughed.
Mr. Lu looked at Lu Yu's father, and said sarcastically, "Your black is made of iron. How can you compare with Yu'er. Lu Yu is the champion. If you can have half the success of your son, I will be happy.
Seeing that the old man was about to start scolding his father again, Lu Yu quickly changed the subject and said, "Grandfather, I heard that you were made a county magistrate when you were a Jinshi. Grandson, I am also a number one scholar. Can you make me a magistrate or a capital official?"
As soon as the old man heard this, he stopped paying attention to Lu Yu's father. He twisted his beard and said, "The number one scholar is different from our Jinshi. First, he has to study hard in the Imperial Academy for three years before he can go out to be an official. But once he is released, he will surely They are all officials of the frontier. Don't worry about this matter. The most important thing for you now is to get married."
"Get married?" Lu Yu blushed when he heard this, and stopped talking.
Seeing Lu Yu's appearance, Mr. Lu smiled and said, "How old are you? Are you still shy? I've made friends with you. She's the daughter of a wealthy family in the county. She's knowledgeable and courteous, and she's very suitable for you. After a while Time, you can go to the door to propose marriage."
After hearing this, Lu Yu still didn't raise his head, but stood there blankly.
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" Lu Yu's mother looked at Lu Yu in surprise. The surrounding folks also gathered around and asked Lu Yu what happened.
After a long time, Lu Yu raised his head and scanned the surrounding villagers, as well as his parents and relatives.
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" Old Master Lu also asked worriedly.
Lu Yu waved his hand, bowed deeply to everyone around him, and kowtowed three times to his relatives. Lu Yu's eyes were clear at this time, and he was no longer confused. He smiled and said: "Although you are all illusory, I still want to immerse myself in it. This is an obsession in my heart. Only by not being immersed in it can I get rid of this obsession. Life is like a dream, whether it is sad or happy. Well, it’s just a dream in the end, like a fleeting cloud, a flash in the pan. Only by jumping out of this dream can you control your life.”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, he smiled slightly, and flicked towards the surrounding void, and the surrounding space suddenly shattered like a mirror one by one.
When Lu Yu opened his eyes again, he found that he was still sitting in the secret room. Elder Xia stared at him not far away.
"Boy, don't be distracted. You have just broken through the realm of inner demons, and the next step is to shape the spirit." Xia Lao reminded from the side.
Lu Yu nodded slightly, and saw a few dark clouds in the sky quickly descending towards the place where Lu Yu was. In the blink of an eye, ignoring the magic circle and entering the secret room, these few dark clouds were no longer as big as above the sky, and only turned into mini dark clouds about the size of a fist. The mini dark cloud circled around Lu Yu a few times, and plunged into Lu Yu's dantian.
Lu Yu quickly looked inside his body. I saw a few miniature dark clouds hovering in the dantian for a while, and finally quickly merged with the sword spirit root in the dantian, turning into a small blue sword, suspended in the dantian. Lu Yu immediately closed his eyes, and soon felt the connection between Xiaojian and his mind, as if it existed in itself, becoming one with Dantian. Both mana and consciousness can be released through this little blue sword.
Lu Yu tried to release the spiritual consciousness in the little sword again. Another notable feature of being promoted to Sword Spirit is that the spiritual consciousness can be released outside. Lu Yu released his consciousness, and clearly felt everything about Yuquan Mountain, such as the birds and animals in the mountains, and Jin Xinxin and Liu Yiyi, who were anxiously waiting in the gazebo.
Lu Yu withdrew his consciousness, slowly opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face. Afterwards, he took out a long-refined black sword from the storage bag, and under the urging of mana, a faint blue sword energy immediately appeared on the blade. Lu Yu could clearly feel that the power of this blue sword energy was vastly different from that of the previous white sword energy. A look of satisfaction could not help appearing on his face.
Lu Yu then closed his eyes and meditated again, and found that the speed of absorbing the spiritual power in the air was also several times stronger than that of a swordsman. No wonder it said in the book that only those who have reached the sword spirit can be regarded as real cultivators. Because the sword spirit not only increased its lifespan by another three hundred years, but also formed a sword spirit in the dantian. As long as the sword spirit is not destroyed, it can still be reborn.
Lu Yu meditated for another three days and three nights, and stabilized the somewhat unstable state that had just been promoted. As soon as he left the customs, he saw Liu Yiyi and Jin Xinxin meditating in their residence. It seemed that they had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Lu Yu coming in, Liu Yiyi jumped up, took Lu Yu's arm, looked it over carefully, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, brother, for finally advancing to the sword spirit realm."
Jin Xinxin also said with a playful smile: "Congratulations, brother Lu, who has gained another three hundred years of life and has become an old monster."
"Fuck you, you're jealous of us having an extra three hundred years of life!" As a daughter, Liu Yiyi hated people mentioning old words in front of her the most.
"Jealous, of course I'm jealous. So I'm also working hard to cultivate now, but this spirit stone is spent too fast, and my heart aches!" Jin Xinxin said with a painful face.
"Brother Jin, you are wrong to think so. You should think that if you advance to Sword Spirit, you will gain another three hundred years of life. With this time, wouldn't you be able to earn more spirit stones?" Lu Yu smiled. road.
Jin Xinxin slapped his head and agreed: "This is too true. From today onwards, I will retreat and break through the sword spirit!"
When the three were talking and laughing, Yu Lingzi's voice suddenly came from the room, which startled the three of them.
"Yiyi, Lu Yu, come to the hall now. I have something to tell you." Yu Lingzi's majestic voice sounded.
The two had no choice but to bid farewell to Jin Xinxin first. However, Jin Xinxin felt that this place was full of aura, which was good for his cultivation, so he decided to stay in Lu Yu's room to practice. The two of them had nothing to do with this thick-skinned guy, they could only let him go, but warned him not to talk nonsense.
After explaining some other things, Lu Yu and Liu Yiyi Yujian came to the hall.
Yu Lingzi was sitting in the center of the hall, but the other three Supreme Elders were nowhere to be seen.
Seeing the two people coming in, Yu Lingzi said to Lu Yu with a half-smile: "Boy Lu, you have finally reached the sword spirit realm. If you don't break through to the sword spirit, our Yujianzong will collapse."
When Lu Yu heard this, his face turned red, and he said in embarrassment: "The disciple's qualifications are dull, thank you for your great cultivation in the sect. In the future, if there is anything in the Yujian sect, I will go through fire and water, it is my duty!"
When Yu Lingzi heard this, a cunning expression appeared on his face, and he smiled and said, "Okay, very good! This sect happens to have something for you to do."
When Lu Yu and Liu Yiyi heard this, they looked at each other in dismay, unexpectedly Yu Lingzi took a polite remark seriously...
