Chapter 485 - Eighth generation: Cut off oneself to enlighten the way, Pure Lotus Heart Sutra!

"This sword actually disappeared?"

Inside the sect's main hall.

Seeing the six-foot green sword disappear from Lu Yuan's hand for no reason, Han Qingxuan's face changed slightly, and he said in disbelief.

This sword has no name and its origin is mysterious. He obtained it from some ancient secret realm.

He knew that this sword was extraordinary, but he didn't expect it to be so strange that it disappeared out of thin air, and even he couldn't see any clues!

"This sword is just a carrier. The supreme sword spirit contained within it is the true inheritance of the sword way."

Lu Yuan said frankly without hiding anything.

"Kendo inheritance?"

Han Qingxuan was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that this sword had such a great origin.

You have to know that anything that can be called inheritance is extraordinary, and looking at Lu Yuan's appearance, it is obvious that he has gained huge benefits from it.

"I wonder what kind of sword tradition is here?"

Han Qingxuan asked curiously.

"The way of the self-destructing sword."

Lu Yuan did not hide anything and told everyone all the inheritance he had received.

Because this method is extremely special, only those with a sincere heart and a single-minded devotion to the Tao can practice it.

"As the Buddha said, the mind is like a bright mirror, which must be wiped frequently."

"The mind of a practitioner is like a mirror, which needs to be wiped frequently to keep it bright and pure."

"And the way of the self-slashing sword is to use the heart as a sword to cut off all the distracting thoughts and delusions in the mind."

"All phenomena are like dreams and illusions. Only by eliminating all false thoughts can we see our true nature, the world, and all living beings."

Lu Yuan said calmly.

"Cut yourself off to make the path clear?"

"You and I are both ordinary people, how can we truly achieve the state of having no desires and no demands?"

"Although this sword art is profound and mysterious, there are only a few people who are suitable for practicing it."

When Han Qingxuan heard this, his expression changed and he immediately shook his head.

It was only then that he finally understood.

Why has no one been able to make this sword recognize its master?

Because as long as one is a human being, he or she will have desires, obsessions and various delusions.

But this self-destructive sword art requires the elimination of all greed and obsession. To achieve this is harder than climbing to the sky.

I'm afraid that except for those who are born sword-crazy, almost no one can master it.

Think of this.

Han Qingxuan looked at Lu Yuan in surprise again.

Since Lu Yuan was able to obtain the sword art inheritance inside, it means that he has been recognized by the sword and is qualified to practice this self-defeating sword art.

Doesn't this mean.

Lu Yuan's determination to seek the truth is even stronger than that of the leader of Qingyun Sect?

"No wonder he was able to rise so quickly at such a young age. With such a firm heart, why should he worry about not achieving great things?"

Han Qingxuan was filled with emotion and paid more attention to Lu Yuan.

Then he thought about it, took out a jade talisman from his Qiankun bag and handed it to Lu Yuan.

"This item is a small Qiankun moving talisman, and it also contains a trace of my spiritual will, which can withstand the attack of a strong man in the Nirvana realm."

"If you are faced with a life-or-death crisis, no matter where you are, you only need to activate this talisman, and you will be instantly transported three thousand miles away."

"Thank you, Master."

Lu Yuan took the small Qiankun moving talisman and put it away solemnly.

This item is too precious. It is equivalent to a cultivator's second life. Its value cannot be measured by money.

When Luo Xin saw this scene, he couldn't help but wail, and was almost jealous to the point of being unrecognizable.

"Crazy! Master must be crazy!"

"He even took out the Small Universe Shifting Talisman. This is a treatment only given to direct disciples!"

Judging from the various treatments Lu Yuan enjoyed.

He is not a direct disciple, but he is better than a direct disciple.

Even if he had made great contributions to the sect, he shouldn't be valued so much by Han Qingxuan, right?

Even Luo Xin suspected that Lu Yuan was the master's illegitimate son who was left in the outside world. Otherwise, why would the master be so generous to him?

"It's true that comparing yourself to others makes you angry."

"It seems that the master attaches great importance to this junior brother. Even the eldest senior brother did not receive such treatment back then, right?"

Luo Xin said helplessly.

And the other side.

After Han Qingxuan gave out all the rewards, he gave a solemn instruction.

"The inner sect competition is coming up soon. According to the agreement reached between this seat and the Law Enforcement Hall, you must take first place in the competition to be eligible to become a true disciple."

"Although this is quite difficult for you, it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"The sect's true inheritance has a high status. If you can get this true inheritance, it will be of great benefit to your future practice. You must not take it lightly."

"Inner sect competition?"

Hearing these four words, Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. No wonder Han Qingxuan gave him so many treasures and resources.

It turned out that they wanted to force him to get a good ranking in this inner sect competition.

But the problem is.

He was just an outer disciple before, and now he has been promoted to an inner disciple. It is too hasty for him to participate in this competition.

"The path of spiritual practice is to fight for one's life against the heavens."

"If we practitioners don't fight, then what is the point of cultivating immortality? What is the truth?"

"And don't be so rude, kid. Although the inner sect competition is fierce, it is not impossible for you to win the first place with your strength."

Seeing Lu Yuan looking embarrassed, Han Qingxuan immediately spoke seriously.

"All disciples will obey the orders of the sect master."

Seeing this, Lu Yuan had no choice but to bow and say.

After the matter was settled, he did not stay here for long.

Say goodbye to Han Qingxuan and Luo Xin.

He returned to his residence, carefully closed the doors and windows, and began to count the spoils of this trip.

During this trip to Mianshui City, he obtained a large amount of spoils from Lin Hu and the robbers from the Black Tiger Village.

It's just that he had been traveling with Elder Li and others before, and had not had time to take a closer look.

He opened a Qiankun bag and saw a mountain of low-grade spirit stones inside, at least tens of thousands of them.

besides.

The number of various precious medicines and elixirs is also extremely considerable.

Although the quality of these pills is very low, the quantity is huge.

Moreover, Lu Yuan carefully counted the items and took out a yellowed scripture from Lin Hu's storage bag.

"Is this the Taixuan Sect's sect-protecting technique, the Taixuan Sutra?"

Lu Yuan's pupils trembled slightly, and he immediately became interested.

From the content point of view.

This sutra is just a rubbing, but it is covered with dense and sloppy handwriting, all of which are Lin Hu's experience and insights in cultivation.

Mysterious and profound, the door to all wonders.

The magic of the Taixuan Sutra lies in that if someone can practice it to a deep level, he or she will have the opportunity to be reborn.

Like when Lin Hu first joined Taixuan Sect, he had average qualifications and no obvious talent. It was not until he spent more than ten years practicing this method that he achieved some success.

Only then was he able to cleanse his meridians and marrow, soar to the sky, and become the chief of the inner sect of Taixuan Sect!

However, according to the experience left by Lin Hu, this method is extremely complicated and tedious. If ordinary disciples cannot grasp the key points, no matter how much hard work they put in, they may not be able to cultivate to the entry level.

"Taixuan Sect is one of the top sects in the Dali Dynasty. Since the Taixuan Sutra is regarded as the sect's guardian technique by them, it obviously has its own unique features."

Lu Yuan simply flipped through it and put it away without practicing it directly.

After all, he still has one more chance to go to the Sutra Repository to select a superior technique. Once he finds a technique that is compatible with the Taixuan Sutra, it will not be too late to practice it.

"These low-level weapons and spiritual medicines are of little use to me. If I have the chance in the future, I can sell them all in exchange for cultivation resources."

After Lu Yuan counted all the supplies, he took out a jade bottle from his Qiankun bag.

"Boo!"

He pulled out the cork, and immediately a strong aroma of elixir wafted into his nose, filling the air in the room with the fragrance.

"It is indeed a top-grade Soul-Nourishing Pill. Just a whiff of its fragrance has accelerated the speed of my cultivation by more than 50%."

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up slightly, and a hint of joy arose in his heart.

You must know that although warriors in the Spirit Sea Realm can absorb spiritual energy into their bodies, they need to activate their skills to make the spiritual energy circulate in their bodies for a large circle before they can completely refine and absorb it.

Under normal circumstances.

For a warrior in the Spirit Sea Realm, even if he does not eat or sleep, being able to complete hundreds of cycles a day is already the limit.

However, if the speed of the technique is faster, it means that the speed of refining spiritual energy will also increase a lot.

However, the Soul-Enriching Pill can skip the step of refining spiritual energy and directly fill up the warrior's sea of ​​​​qi quickly.

"With these hundreds of Soul-Enriching Pills, I will surely be able to enter the late Soul Sea Realm in a short period of time."

"By that time, even if I encounter a Soul Palace Realm expert, I will be able to defeat him easily!"

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, a strong sense of self-confidence rising in his heart.

Then he took a deep breath, cleared away all distracting thoughts, and began to practice with concentration.

The days and months pass by like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, more than two months passed.

While Lu Yuan was practicing in seclusion, the much anticipated inner sect competition arrived as scheduled.

Compared to outer disciples.

Those who can become inner disciples of Qingyun Sect are all people with extraordinary qualifications.

Even the weakest ones have reached the initial stage of Spirit Sea Realm.

As for those top geniuses, they have already entered the late stage of Spirit Sea Realm and can break through to Soul Palace Realm with just one step.

Whether in terms of status or cultivation, he is enough to be on par with the inner sect elders!

As the time for the competition approaches, the entire Qingyun Sect becomes more and more lively.

Many inner disciples and sect elders who were far away rushed back in advance to watch this grand event.

After all, the inner sect competition is extremely important and is the most lively event of the year in Qingyun Sect.

This is not only to select talented geniuses, but also to take this opportunity to demonstrate the sect's strength to the major forces in the outside world, so as to deter those villains who are ready to make moves.

That's why.

Whenever the inner sect competition begins.

In addition to recalling all disciples and elders, the Qingyun Sect will also send out invitations to invite nearby forces, large and small, to come and watch the battle.

It can be said that the entire sect attaches great importance to the inner sect competition.

All the inner disciples are gearing up and looking forward to getting a good ranking in the competition.

Because it is under the attention of various forces.

If they can stand out in the competition, they will not only receive generous rewards, but can also take this opportunity to build their own reputation and obtain more investment!

"The inner disciples of this year are all very strong. I wonder which genius will win the championship in this inner sect competition."

"Need I say more? Of course it's Senior Brother Zhao Xu!"

"It is said that Senior Brother Zhao Xu is the favorite descendant of a certain Grand Elder. He is also a disciple of the Strict Punishment Hall Master. He has been honing his skills in the Law Enforcement Hall for many years. I don't know how many powerful criminals and bandits he has killed with his own hands."

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhao Xu is very powerful and has already entered the first level of the Soul Palace. Whether it is his talent, qualifications, family background, or combat experience, there is no flaw in him."

"In my opinion, the leader of the inner sect this time must be Senior Brother Zhao Xu."

Many disciples gathered together and discussed in a low voice.

Many of them highly respected Zhao Xu and believed that he was the well-deserved chief of the inner sect.

But after hearing this, some people held different opinions.

"I don't think so. Senior Brother Zhao Xu is indeed powerful, but the other inner sect geniuses are not pushovers either."

"For example, Senior Sister Su Yun is only 20 years old, but she has already reached the Half-Step Soul Palace Realm, and she was also personally taught by a certain Supreme Elder."

"She uses the Mysterious Lady Sword Technique to such an extreme degree that even the Soul Palace Realm experts dare not take it head-on."

"And Senior Brother Lei Heng is a natural born martial arts fanatic. Although he is only at the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, it is said that he once tore apart a Soul Palace Realm warrior with his bare hands during a life-and-death battle. Many people regard him as a freak!"

"Senior Sister Su Yun? Senior Brother Lei Heng?"

When they heard these two names, their faces changed slightly, and an unconcealable awe appeared in their eyes.

That person is right.

Although Zhao Xu is very powerful, Su Yun and Lei Heng are also extremely talented and are strong contenders for the top spot in the inner sect.

"Everyone, I'm afraid you have forgotten one person."

at the same time.

Someone smiled and spoke again.

"Are you talking about Junior Brother Lu Yuan who has been in the limelight recently?"

The other disciples' expressions changed slightly, and they immediately guessed who the other party was talking about.

During the past two months, the news that the sect's convoy had been attacked had been widely circulated.

The name Lu Yuan also spread throughout the Qingyun Sect and was known to many disciples and elders.

"Although Junior Brother Lu Yuan killed Lin Hu and his strength should not be underestimated, he was just promoted to an inner sect disciple not long ago. He should not participate in this competition, right?"

Someone said doubtfully.

In fact, he hadn't said another word.

In everyone's mind.

Zhao Xu, Su Yun, and Lei Heng are all at the same level as the Soul Palace Realm powerhouses.

Although Lu Yuan was able to kill Lin Hu, who was at the ninth level of the Spirit Sea Realm, he had been practicing for too short a time. It was said that he was only at the first level of the Spirit Sea Realm, making it difficult to be compared with the first three.

Just as everyone was talking about it.

After two months of hard training, Lu Yuan finally ended his retreat.

"This Pure Lotus Heart Sutra is indeed a superior technique. The cultivation resources required are simply an astronomical figure."

"Even with more than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones and hundreds of top-grade soul-nourishing pills, they can only support me until I reach the sixth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm."

Lu Yuan exhaled a breath of foul air, silently feeling the spiritual power in his body which had increased several times, looking quite helpless.

During his retreat, he took some time to visit the Sutra Repository.

After careful consideration, I finally chose the Pure Lotus Heart Sutra.

As the name suggests, this method focuses on cultivating the spiritual will, and emphasizes that the mind should be like a lotus platform, with inner light.

I have a bright pearl, but it has long been locked up by worldly affairs.

Once the dust is gone, light will appear, illuminating the mountains and rivers.

If you practice this method to the extreme, you can illuminate the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away with your spiritual will.

In just a snap of a finger, you can save all living beings! (End of this chapter)
