always a fairy

Chapter 5 Don't Be Me, Be Beyond Me.

When Bai Yujing woke up, he heard turbulent footsteps around him.

Having lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, he was alert to the situation immediately, and subconsciously reached out in the dark to grab the dagger tied to his wrist. When he caught it, he felt much more at ease in his heart.

someone.

The sound felt that it was not by my side, but in the next room.

"Not here." A grown man said respectfully.

"Look again." After another slightly thick voice fell, the sound of footsteps poured out, and dissipated after a while.

Bai Yujing held his breath and concentrated, not daring to vent his breath, and waited calmly for a long time until he confirmed that there was no more sound, then slowly twisted his body, trying to sit up, but he only moved a little, and immediately felt pain all over his body. sweaty.

The surroundings were pitch black, so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard.

Lonely breathing.

Bai Yujing still wanted to move, although the palm of his hand no longer felt pain, but because of the movement of his arm just now, he almost exhausted all his strength, and could no longer move an inch.

"I've only been in a coma for a day, and it's not bad." An old voice sounded slowly, with some comforting laughter.

Bai Yujing was horrified, his whole body trembled, and he thought, "What's the situation? Who did you meet again? It can't be those people from Hanging Mountain, right?"

The surroundings suddenly became brighter, Bai Yujing closed his eyes subconsciously, and opened his eyes slightly as the warm light came on, and what came into view was a narrow cave, and an old man with white hair was sitting leaning against the wall. staring at himself.

The dim lights crawled on his face, and the candlelights shone brightly and radiantly together, avoiding him as if timidly.

There is no wind here, but the flames are shaking.

This candle was lit for Bai Yujing, because the old man no longer needed light, and his eyes had two deep cuts, which had already isolated him from the light of this world.

Half of his body is a skeleton, while the other half is a human.

Bai Yujing seems to have begun to accept this inexplicable world. Since he returned to Jiuhua Village, this peaceful world has long been different. He has seen fox demons who turned into adults, and monks who can be resurrected after death. , then seeing half of the people now, naturally there is nothing to be afraid of.

He knew that this was just self-comfort, comforting his trembling arms and legs.

"You..." Bai Yujing choked up and didn't know what to say.

"I've been thinking about how not to scare you, but now it seems that I was worrying too much." The old man showed half a smile, and the other half only moved his jaw slightly.

Bai Yujing swallowed his saliva, the other party's behavior surprised him a bit, the dagger in his hand loosened a bit, and said in a low voice: "Senior...you...why do you look like this?"

"This is the price of longevity." The old man smiled, turned his head to Bai Yujing, and touched his white skeleton with his hands.

"Longevity? You...you know the method of longevity?" Bai Yujing was shocked, this kind of figure who has always been in the legend, let him see it, but... the appearance of this longevity is too ugly, right?

The old man sighed earnestly, and said slowly: "Yes, and no. This longevity is the supreme avenue sought by ascetics. I am a monk, and I should also seek this method of longevity, but... still fall short. , If I hadn't been eager to attack back then, how could I have seized others' property and forcibly used it for my own use?"

Bai Yujing was confused by what he said, but he still didn't disturb the old man's self-report. He understood that a blind person who can live in such an environment must be very lonely.

Lonely people always want to say something.

"I have worked hard for many years, and I have made some famous names in this river and lake, but after all, I have not been able to resist the temptation. It is said that on the Tushan fairy mountain, there is a mysterious demon body vein, but the heaven and the earth live the same life, and all things have the same luck. I have been searching for three years. On top of Mount Tu, after the massacre, he captured the Xuan Yao body, and after absorbing it, he learned the secret art of longevity."

He picked up a wine jug, shook it a few times, took a sip, and said: "The battle back then left me with incurable injuries, and the swallowing Xuan Yao body was about to use up all the energy, and the breath recovered. Very slowly, the body gradually collapsed, and no matter how much I practiced, I couldn’t recover. It wasn’t until 30 years ago that I realized that the Xuanyao body is just bones that don’t age and die, and are always strong, but flesh and blood... is a flesh and blood body after all.”

He paused and said with a smile, "To this day, it has become what you see."

Bai Yujing said frightenedly: "Senior... But did you see the scene of the inheritance of the Xuan Yaomai?"

"Hahaha!" The old man laughed loudly, "Sure enough, you are really smart. Unexpectedly, when the old man said this, you have already guessed all about it."

Bai Yujing's complexion suddenly became ugly, "I never thought that I just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den, it's a pity..." He resisted his body to move, but he still couldn't move, the feeling of shattering spread all over his body, "It's a pity I can't move, otherwise if you want to kill me, it's not just casually..."

"Of course you can't move."

The old man turned around, leaning his hands on his knees and said: "Ji Ya is Tu Shan Yaozi, he has the Xuan Yao Vein inherited by Tu Shan for thousands of years in his body, even though he has reached the sixth rank of immortality at the age of 17, he still cannot bear the power of this vein , There are countless treasures hidden in this vein. If you don't have a mysterious demon body, no matter what, it is impossible to support this body of flesh and blood."

He suddenly smiled, very pale and weakly, "I can give you this mysterious demon body."

Bai Yujing was really stunned this time, thinking: "He could kill me directly, but why did he do that? Could it be that the old man didn't lie to me? But I don't know him well, why didn't he snatch me away?" My benefit, but to give me his body?"

Puzzled, he could only ask with doubts: "Senior, please ask."

The old man said: "Do you want revenge? For your mother, for Tu Shan?"

"Of course!"

Bai Yujing blurted out, even though he couldn't move his body at this time, and his whole body was in pain, but the flame of revenge never went out.

"Okay, how do you want to take revenge?"

"Of course... escape first, and then find a way to practice and improve your strength." Bai Yujing didn't think about this matter carefully, and said it all on the basis of a momentary thought.

"good."

The old man seemed very satisfied, "What realm do you want to cultivate to?"

"I……"

Bai Yujing was speechless, but immediately recalled that he once got an eighth-rank demon pill, and then recalled the conversation between Tu Shanfei and Yu Xuzi at that time, and then said: "At least you have to be at the seventh rank, maybe you can have a relationship with Yuxuzi." The power of battle."

"Yu Xuzi is now at the eighth rank of immortality. If you don't have the strength at the seventh rank, you must not fight yourself. You are very smart. Even if you are angry, you are not eager for success and do something useless."

The old man leaned against the wall, his smile was full of joy, he stroked his beard with great satisfaction and said, "There are hundreds of ways to practice in the world, not only the immortal way, why do you have to cultivate the immortal way?"

"Because I want to become a sword fairy!"

Bai Yujing resisted the severe pain and raised his head. In any case, he thought that he should not lower his head when he said this sentence. This is his lifelong wish, and this is the only thing he has to do now.

It is his dream and the strength of his struggle.

"Sword Immortal?"

The old man smiled, "What's so good about being a sword fairy? Why do you have to become a sword fairy?"

"Because of strength, because of strength."

Bai Yujing's eyes suddenly turned red, "Because the people around Sword Immortal will not be turned into corpse slaves, and Sword Immortal's mother will not die like an ant."

"good."

The old man shook the gourd, but his expression faded at this moment. He took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and immediately drained all the wine in the gourd, and casually threw the gourd in Bai Yujing. Beside him, "Xuan Yao's body and veins can be cultivated in both ways, and I will find a good technique for you."

For some reason, his speech speed became very fast, and he did not give Bai Yujing a chance to interject, "Immortal and Martial Arts lead to the same goal by different routes, a total of fifteen doors are cultivated, the tenth level of the entry into the immortal way, the first level and then the heavenly level, the tenth level of the martial arts introduction, and the first level After entering the heaven."

"And the journey of martial arts is even more difficult. After entering the heavenly realm, you can enter the remaining four realms with martial arts. All the cultivation in the world, the last four realms are connected. Those distant things, when you grow up, you will naturally know .”

The old man smiled, "Boy, I will send you a sword and a jug before I send you out. You have to fulfill your promise to me, understand?"

Bai Yujing was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: "Promise? When did I promise you?" Although he was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask randomly. At this juncture, it is obvious that the old man can do whatever he wants.

"Is there anything else you want to ask me?" The old man knelt down and grabbed Bai Yujing's shoulder.

"I……"

Bai Yujing paused for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Then... Lord Sword Immortal, what realm is it?"

"Hahahaha!"

A golden aura ignited all over the old man, "If the Shaoyang Dynasty lasts for a day, all the people in the world will only have Tianpin, and they will never be able to enter the Happy Realm!"

Suddenly, a huge golden light burst out with endless power at this moment, destroying the cellar in an instant, and the vast world suddenly shone with golden light, illuminating the entire night sky with majesty.

A powerful breath poured into Bai Yujing's body. At this moment, he could no longer bear it and passed out.

"Boy, no matter who it is, no matter what the circumstances, you are not allowed to tell about the Xuan Yao's bloodline, otherwise, you will die!"

The old man stood against the sky, stepped on his feet lightly, and a crystal clear sword appeared under his feet.

He waved one hand, and a thunderclap suddenly flashed in the dark night sky, and those lightning bolts shot directly at the transparent blade under his feet.

In an instant, two words appeared on the flawless sword body.

startled.

The old man faced the southwest, and shouted in his mouth: "My man, you care about this world for a hundred years, and thousands of monks in the rivers and lakes can't lift their heads. Today, I will try to see if a sword in a hundred years can tear apart your vast domain!" .”

The color of the sky changes, the clouds and rain disperse, and the day and night are indistinguishable.

Accompanied by the old man, the long sword shot straight into the sky.

And Bai Yujing's body was pushed out by a powerful heat wave, and fell into a forest.

After only a moment, the old man in the sky was covered in blood, his skeleton collapsed, and he fell down.

The sky was originally pitch black, but a gap was actually opened, revealing golden lines.

Bai Yujing looked at the sky bewilderedly, and murmured: "You...could it be that you are..."

An old, tired and struggling voice sounded out of nowhere, lingering in his ears.

"Don't miss me, don't be me, surpass me!"

"Children, poor and strong, with the ambition not to fall into the blue sky."
