Chapter 140: Body and Sword as One
After flying out of the underground rift, Zhou An did not return to the palace immediately. He asked Hua Wu Yue to take the baby Jian Xin back first. He went to the fallen Tianjian Peak to sign in and obtained the Sword Dao Chen Xin Secret Method, Tiangang Sword Formation, Sword Cultivation Method, Sword Control Method, and Yunling Sword Pool.
Afterwards, they went to the Wanfa Sect, where the situation was similar. All of them had been wiped out, not a single person was left. Zhou An signed in and obtained the secret method of the golden body of Dharma, the Luotian magic hand, the Buddha scripture, and the statue of Zhengxin.
After that, he returned to the palace. Zhou An had asked the Jinyiwei who were good at hiding to hide outside the Wanfa Sect and the Jian Sect and wait early on. He knew that the Ji Tian Sect Leader would attack these two sects one day.
This time, when the Embroidered Uniform Guards sent a message with their flying swords and learned that they had started the attack, Zhou An rushed over immediately, otherwise he would have been unable to find the Ji Tian Sect Leader.
Originally, he could have saved the two sects. The Sword Sect and the Wanfa Sect were too powerful. There could only be one voice, that of the royal family, within the empire. The existence of these two super sects was extremely detrimental to the rule of the empire.
However, if the emperor personally sent people to attack, it would provoke resistance from all the sects in the Qianyuan Empire, so it would be most appropriate for the Jitian Sect to take action first.
The leader of the Ji Tian sect was finally killed this time, and he finally got his mind done. He also obtained three top-grade immortal treasures, the Dangshen Bell, the Zhuxian Sword, and the Wanxiang Relics, which was a great harvest.
However, having more magic weapons will not improve his strength much. Now, if he wants to improve his combat power, he should mainly focus on improving his cultivation, realm, and skills.
After returning to the palace, Kenshin, who was in his infant state, was handed over to Hua Wu Yue to take care of. Because he was reborn with the help of the spiritual flower, he and the flower spirit had an inexplicable closeness. He would teach him the martial arts when he grew up a little.
He placed the Soul-Enriching Sword Pool behind the West Palace, which was also behind the Tiandao Gate. It was specifically used to raise flying swords, so that all of the Sword Sect's ten thousand swords could stay here.
This Soul Sword Pool is very effective. It is like a blessed place for a flying sword. It can enhance the spirituality of a flying sword and even improve its quality if it is kept for a long enough time.
The Zhu Xian Sword is filled with too much evil energy. Although leaving it here can strengthen other flying swords, it will cause people to be corroded by the evil energy, so it should be left directly in one's own system space.
The statue of Zhengxin was left in the East Palace martial arts field. This treasure is a Vajra statue. Practicing martial arts here will make it easier to comprehend the essence of martial arts.
Click to learn all the other secret methods obtained by signing in, especially the Sword Dao Chen Xin, which is very useful for comprehending the method of wielding a sword. After learning it, the state of unity of body and sword seems to come naturally, and I immediately run to the martial arts field to comprehend it.
The Dharmakaya Golden Body is the top-level skill of the Wanfa Sect. It is the giant golden body that the six elders of the Wanfa Sect displayed when they were fighting against the Demon Lord Canghong. Because the six people's cultivation was not enough, they could only work together to display the Dharmakaya Golden Body. However, Zhou An's current cultivation of 8,800 years of true essence has surpassed that of six people combined, and is enough for him to display this skill alone.
After three days of contemplation in the martial arts arena, with the help of the sword-wielding Chen Xin method, he finally achieved the unity of body and sword. The Emperor's Sword flew out, and Zhou An also soared into the air.
Above the imperial palace, the scarlet Emperor's Sword was seen flying towards Zhou An, but Zhou An stood firm and watched the Emperor's Sword fly away.
The man and the sword collided in mid-air, the tip of the sword pierced Zhou An's forehead, a red sword light flashed, and the two men disappeared at the same time.
The next second, a red light fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the martial arts field. A red seal appeared between Zhou An's eyebrows.
The moment he raised his hand, a red sword light burst out from his palm and rushed straight into the sky. The flying sword and he became one. He was the flying sword. He waved his hands and a thousand-meter-long sword light rushed out, stirring the clouds. Wherever the sword light passed, the clouds parted.
When he withdrew his hand, the sword light disappeared, and he could release and retract the sword at will. Once he reached the state of unity of body and sword, the power of the flying sword could be truly demonstrated, and the flying sword could not be taken away by external forces unless the person was taken away together.
Then he released the Haotian Tower and entered the lava hell on the seventh floor of the tower, where the leader of Jitian was imprisoned.
He saw Zhou An's frightened look and hurried away, but his magic was forbidden here and he could only jump, so how could he escape?
Zhou An used the Haotian Divine Hand to grab him in his palm. Without any nonsense and ignoring his prayers, he used the Heavenly Demon Bliss to absorb his demonic body.
After all, he has become a true demon, his blood power is extremely powerful, and his blood essence is extremely pure.
Leader Ji Tian did not resist at all. In happiness, his body slowly disappeared and finally turned into blood mist and was completely absorbed, leaving his soul held in Zhou An's hand.
Zhou An continued to use the Demonic Soul-Devouring Technique to devour his soul and obtain all his memories and soul power.
The demonic energy entered the body and was absorbed by the Heavenly Demon Book's technique and transformed into Heavenly Demonic Energy. After the Heavenly Demon Book broke through to the sixth level, the image of the Heavenly Demon behind him seemed real.
He took a deep breath, and all the demonic energy returned to his body. Now he had reached the peak of the ninth level of the innate realm. As long as he left the Haotian Tower, he should be able to sense the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation.
However, the ninth heavenly tribulation is different from the previous ones. Even if it can be sensed, it will not come so soon. It will still take a few years. Just like the Ten Thousand Demon King, who suppressed his cultivation for so many years, the ninth heavenly tribulation has not yet arrived.
In fact, he had sensed the ninth heavenly tribulation a long time ago and had been hiding in the Forest of Ten Thousand Demons, using formations to suppress his cultivation, which allowed him to avoid it for such a long time.
He stood there, digesting the memories of Master Ji Tian, and only then did he understand his real purpose.
In order to open the door to the underworld and save the evil woman who fell into reincarnation, the scholar chose to let the gods control him.
It’s a pity that the gate to the underworld is not so easy to open. It was sealed by the gods and can only be opened by the Zhuxian Sword.
"He is quite a lovesick guy." Zhou An sighed slightly and left Haotian Tower. At the same time, he learned an important piece of information: there were people from the earth, or the underworld, among the hidden gods.
The one who guided him to become the Ji Tian Sect Leader today was this person from the Ming Clan, in order to allow the Ming Clan to return to the earth.
After leaving Haotian Tower, he returned to Kongling Immortal Palace and practiced martial arts to consolidate his cultivation.
As soon as he arrived at the study, the four ethereal ladies were already waiting inside. Shuyao smiled and said, "Congratulations, Master, for achieving the unity of body and sword. Now you are considered to be among the best."
Zhou An smiled and said, "Those powerful people have been comprehending the techniques for more than a thousand years. I have been practicing for too short a time, so there are always shortcomings. I should be able to make up for the shortcomings after practicing for another ten years."
Xing Yan burst out laughing and said, "Master, what you said is really hateful. Others have practiced for thousands of years, but you have only been practicing for ten years. Even we are jealous."
"Just lucky." Zhou An smiled and sat cross-legged in the middle.
The four Kong Ling girls didn't believe that this was just luck. If it wasn't for their incredible comprehension, who could reach such an amazing level of cultivation in such a short time? The four girls couldn't help but admire them. Even their previous master, Fairy Kong Ling, was far inferior to them in this regard.
"Qinyu, I need your piano music to help me refresh my mind and concentrate." Zhou An said.
"Yes." Qin Yu sat down, and her hands moved on the strings as if dancing, producing beautiful music.
The sound of the piano can calm Zhou An's mind, making it easier for him to concentrate on his practice, and it is especially effective for practicing the Heavenly Demon Book.
