Chapter 991 Another Way

"I've seen through you completely, you can't stop me for long!"

Staring at the phantom in front of him, Li Aojian, who couldn't help panting, snorted, showing a trace of disdain.

The purple phantom in the high crown and ancient clothes didn't seem to care at all, he waved his sleeves, and a mighty sword intent approached like a wave, pushing Li Aojian hundreds of feet away.

A dozen years ago.

Li Aojian went out to find a suitable flying sword, and accidentally entered a secret realm.

The secret realm is a valley, the end can be seen at a glance, and the golden light is shining at the end, it seems that there is a good treasure, and Li Aojian feels a very strong sword intent from it, and really wants to get it.

After only taking a few steps, he was stopped by a white phantom that suddenly appeared.

That phantom should be a sword cultivator, his gestures are full of sword intent, but there is no sword in his hand, and he can't even see the phantom of the sword.

Li Aojian naturally couldn't control so much, with a proud face, he directly stepped forward with his sword.

Li Aojian's sword was destroyed by phantom before they could reach a close.

He was dazed for a long time.

As an extremely stubborn and proud swordsman, he only has this sword, and a swordsman without a sword is Li Aojian, one can imagine that kind of situation.

He was trapped in a secret place.

If you can't defeat the phantom in front of you, you won't be able to reach the end, and you won't be able to leave the secret realm.

Apart from sword formulas, Li Aojian didn't know any other formulas. After cursing a few words to Xu Ying, he sat down and fell into deep thought, thinking about how to use sword formulas and even sword intent without using a sword.

This sitting is five years.

He finally understood.

There is no self, no sword, and there is really no sword, so use me as the sword.

He used his body as a flying sword, used his sword tactics, used his sword intent, and then challenged the phantom in front of him.

He failed again and again, climbed up again and again, experienced several years of hard work, and did not know how many times he was knocked down, but he did not give up.

Until he finally defeated the phantom in front of him.

Before the phantom disappeared, a white sword light came straight at Li Aojian, Li Aojian had no way to dodge it, the sword light went straight into the sea of ​​consciousness, he was stunned for several days as if struck by lightning.

When he woke up, his eyes sparkled, and his understanding of the way of swords deepened.

"Is it the formation of the ancient sword cultivator? If you can pass the five tests, you can get the real inheritance of the ancient sword cultivator... It's very interesting, but no matter whether you have the inheritance or not, I will defeat you!"

After walking forward for a while, another phantom jumped out.

The appearance of this phantom is the same as the previous one, except that the white has become purple, and the level of sword intent has been raised by one level, and its power has become much stronger.

After another year of hard fighting, when the phantom fell, a cyan sword light entered the sea of ​​consciousness again.

After a sudden realization, Li Aojian's eyes became brighter, and his whole body exuded the aura of a sword. Without a sword, the sword intent soared to the sky, making people dare not look at him closely.

Keep moving forward, passed the four tests in a row, defeated the four phantoms, and finally stood in front of the purple phantom.

The end is only one step away, as long as you defeat the last purple phantom, you can get the inheritance in the secret realm.

The purple phantom is extremely powerful, in terms of swordsmanship, it is stronger than those four combined.

Li Aojian failed many times, and every failure made him grow. Up to now, he has completely seen through the purple phantom, and he knows everything well. He looks at the phantom with confidence on his face.

In an instant, his figure disappeared.

There is no one and no sword, only sword intent.

A cyan long rainbow descended from the sky, and the brilliance flickered on the long rainbow. It was full of fine sword intents, which seemed insignificant, but combined they were as vast as rivers and rivers, unstoppable and invincible.

Still a sword intent.

Li Aojian has not let go of the basic sword art of the He Yin School, the first-order one-cut sword art until now.

But at this time, the Sword Intent of One Slash is definitely not the first level, but the fourth level.

Being able to upgrade the ordinary first-level sword intent three times to become an uncommon fourth-level sword intent, this kind of thing is unique in the world of cultivating immortals. I am afraid that only Li Aojian, who is dedicated to the way of the sword and sincere in the sword to the extreme, can do it arrive.

The purple phantom resisted with all its strength, but in the end it couldn't resist the falling Changhong.

Changhong fell to the ground, and the phantom suddenly shattered and turned into nothingness. At the same time, a purple sword light came straight towards Li Aojian.

Li Aojian was already prepared, with a calm expression on his face.

Like enlightenment, many kendo essences poured into the sea of ​​consciousness together, shocking him dumbfounded.

Three days later, Li Aojian recovered, his expression was indifferent, but he could not see the sword intent. He had passed the five tests completely, and he had the appearance of perfection.

His eyes fell on the golden light, that golden light was not a sword, but a thumb-sized bead.

Li Aojian didn't appear disappointed, but laughed out loud, "As expected, haha!"

That bead is not a sword, but something better than a sword. It is a sword pill from an ancient sword cultivator.

Jianwan, shaped like a pill, means sword.

Condensing the sword intent into a sword pill, forming a substance like a golden pill. For some ancient sword cultivators, the sword pill is their golden pill. The scope of the tactic has become a stronger force on its own. At this point, they naturally no longer need spiritual power and yuan power, and they no longer need to practice the general practice tactic. Just relying on the sword intent, they can make themselves Become a stronger and purer sword cultivator.

This information comes from the five sword lights, and this sword pill provides an example for Li Aojian to emulate.

"I, Li Aojian, must condense the sword pellets and become a truly pure sword cultivator."

Li Aojian picked up the sword pill with a smile, sat down, and began to think long and hard.

No one knows how long it will take him to stand up.

What he wants to take is a road that almost no one in the world of cultivating immortals has taken.

Nowadays, there is no sword cultivator who does not rely on spiritual energy.

They know that if they only practice sword intent, do not practice the art, do not absorb spiritual energy, and do not improve the state, the result will be a stagnant state, and they don't know how long they can live, and their lifespan cannot be guaranteed, so what is the point of practicing swords again? ? Cultivating immortals, whether it is cultivating swords or other ways, longevity is the first goal.

Only by constantly improving the realm, the longer the lifespan is, the stronger the self, and the stronger the sword will be.

There is nothing wrong with thinking this way, most sword cultivators do this.

But there are people like Li Aojian who don't care about their state or how long they can live, as long as their sword intent can reach the peak. Sincere to the sword, truly understand the true meaning of the way of the sword.

For the sake of the sword, Li Aojian can give up everything.

However, does taking this path mean that one cannot ascend to immortality?

no.

Anyone who reaches the extreme can become immortal, even if he doesn't have any cultivation base.
