ascend to immortality
The sunlight was bright and hazy, and the line between heaven and earth was blurry and indistinct. In the dead silence where all living beings in the world held their breath, a strange yet extremely familiar figure in white slowly approached, raised his face and smiled.
She smiled, her eyes showing neither sadness nor joy, but when you looked closely, they seemed to contain countless extremely intense emotions.
“Wow!”
The faces of the people on the ground suddenly changed, filled with fear, their pupils trembling. They subconsciously turned to flee, but were caught off guard and bumped into each other.
Amidst the muttering, cursing, pushing and shoving, everyone suddenly calmed down a bit, hunched their shoulders, bent their waists, turned sideways, lowered their heads and avoided looking into those eyes.
Farther away, the faces of those who didn't react in time also changed, becoming twisted and hideous. They suddenly screamed and roared. As soon as they moved, they were pinned to the ground by the people around them.
The familiar uneasiness, anxiety, and fear suddenly spread, and were twisted by an invisible force, accumulating into the deepest pain and despair in my heart.
There were shrill cries. Outside the crowd, flocks of birds, big and small, raised their necks and flapped their wings anxiously, and the animals bared their teeth and their hair stood on end.
The roars of dragons and tigers resounded through the sky, and birds and beasts suddenly rushed towards the people in front, their eyes fierce and manic, and their eyes were so red that they almost bled.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Layers of invisible barriers instantly emerged, blocking the beast tide's impact. Blood splattered before the invisible barriers, one after another.
Between the sky, earth, mountains and seas, a series of mysterious and ancient huge figures had indifferent expressions, but they turned their heads and sides, avoiding the figure in white, and only looked at everything between the mountains, seas and land.
On the huge and seemingly endless altar, everyone had closed their eyes at some point, lowered their heads slightly, and murmured almost silently.
The sky seemed to sense something, and suddenly its fury intensified. The entire, once calm and peaceful sky trembled violently, sending a wave of even more ferocious upheavals through the earth.
The earth shook and the mountains trembled, and layers of barriers were broken and rebuilt.
In the countless pairs of ancient and quiet eyes that opened, the light trembled.
“Swish——”
Platinum chains stretched out from the void, interweaving into a net in all directions, trapping the white figure that was walking in the air.
Countless chains were rapidly approaching, but the expression on the face of the figure in white did not change at all, as if he was truly as unconscious as a dead object.
She slowly opened her mouth.
It seemed silent and yet audible, like human voices, as well as the calls of some birds, beasts, and fish in the sea. The whistle was ethereal and long, and it shook off circles of illusory soft light.
On the altar, everyone suddenly opened their eyes.
Their pupils trembled wildly and they chanted incoherently.
Uneasy, uneasy, an extremely intense uneasiness is wandering through every limb and bone, like a thousand ants gnawing at my heart, with waves of fine itching and pain between my flesh, blood and bones.
"Bang!"
Above and below the altar, countless figures of people and birds and beasts fell to the ground, curled up in pain, their bodies tense, covered in cold sweat, unable to move.
In an instant, countless platinum chains shattered and dissipated.
A figure in white slowly walked out from the broken starlight with a smile on his face. His eyes, which seemed ruthless yet full of strong love and hate, were always open. As his head turned, he stared straight into the distance.
Between heaven and earth, a glance met, and boundless consciousness trembled instantly.
In the snowy forest, Jiang Jingyuan's mind was shaken, and she was suddenly thrown back. She sat at the table in a daze, her mouth slightly open, as if she was bewildered, but in fact her pupils were trembling wildly.
She leaned against the back of the chair, motionless for a long time, unable to move!
Extreme anxiety and fear gripped her!
The flesh, blood, and bones felt sore, painful, and itchy, but I couldn't find the source. I could only fight with all my might, but I had no extra strength left and couldn't even move a finger.
The sound is cool, the sound is cool... the sound is cool...
In her mind, she kept calling out for help.
Even thoughts were just a confused mass of feelings, a chaotic mass calling out breathlessly in the darkness that blocked it on all sides.
The sound is cool, the sound is cool, the sound is cool...
Come and help her, she can't move, come and pull her out first, she can't move...
Unease, fear, resentment, strong... and overwhelming, swept through her entire consciousness like a tidal wave, leaving her body frozen in place.
Jiang Jingyuan felt that he was almost suffocating, his body was resisting the pain of karma, and his trapped consciousness was trembling in the darkness.
"call……"
She suddenly moved! She bent her waist and slumped over the table, pushing the brush, ink, paper and inkstone to the ground without paying attention.
Her facial features were twisted in pain, she was breathing rapidly, nervously and suppressedly, her whole body was shaking, she suddenly straightened up and took a deep breath, then suddenly slammed her head down on the table in pain, sweat dripping down.
Jiang Jingyuan couldn't even tell whether he was in pain or something else. His mind was confused and blank. Following his instinct, he suffocated and straightened up to breathe, and suddenly he felt pain and trembled on the desk... It could only be attributed to one word: "pain".
In this stormy chaos, Jiang Jingyuan suddenly woke up for a moment and remembered this familiar feeling.
"This time, just this time..." Jiang Jingyuan thought almost unconsciously, "Don't retreat anymore, just this once, get past it..."
Beyond it, beyond mere mortals...
Become an immortal.
Tears kept falling from Jiang Jingyuan's eyes. He was dazed and could not see or sense the outside world. Only he knew that a will to move forward suddenly burst out in his heart.
His stomach was churning, Jiang Jingyuan rested his forehead on the table, breathing heavily and retching, tears streaming down his face, almost sobbing, and clutching his hair tightly with both hands.
Stripping away karma and fear, and transcending obsession and confusion, will inevitably be accompanied by unprecedented pain.
The causes of this life and the causes of past lives all came flooding back at her, and she was left alone struggling and tossing in the midst of it, trying to remain unshakable.
“Click—” “Plop!”
The tables and chairs were kicked outwards, and Jiang Jingyuan fell to the ground. She struggled to get up and retched wildly. The pain in her soul suddenly triggered the pain in her body. She lay on the ground, crying.
She knows nothing.
In the narrow darkness that was gradually squeezing in, she jumped and thrashed.
She seemed to have returned to the previous time, with her heart and mind full of desire to push away the heavy wall in front of her.
She couldn't push, couldn't push, and still couldn't push... She slowly fell down into the darkness of fear and anxiety.
“Why, why, why…” Jiang Jingyuan collapsed for a moment, then suddenly remembered the thought of ascending to immortality. Gritting his teeth, he climbed up again and slammed his head against the thick wall again and again. “Get out, get out, get out—!”
"Don't influence me, don't influence me, I want to become an immortal, get out!!"
She hit her head in the dark and was bleeding. She fell to the ground and looked at the motionless wall in front of her. She cried even harder.
Was she not resolute enough? Was she not persistent enough?
She really wanted to become an immortal...
Jiang Jingyuan cried and begged against the wall, "Please go out, please go out... Please, let me become an immortal..."
Suddenly, from the darkness in my heart, a silent voice and unspoken words emerged——
Jiang Jingyuan couldn't express exactly what she heard in words, she just understood the meaning in an instant.
What could possibly be excluded? How could something that already existed be eliminated?
Could it be that immortals couldn't even tolerate anxiety and fear? Could anxiety and fear be enough to shake and destroy an immortal? Is this why immortals are so anxious to eliminate anxiety and fear?
Jiang Jingyuan suddenly calmed down, fell on his side in the darkness, slowly shed tears, breathed slowly, and sniffed from time to time.
She looked at the wall, just quietly and calmly.
Fear and anxiety, just stay here.
There's no way to shake her anyway.
The anxiety washes through the veins, the soreness, itching and pain are still there...that's it!
Jiang Jingyuan ignored it.
It's right here! It hurts!
So what!!!
Suddenly, she seemed to reach a certain point, and in an instant, everything became clear. The tears stopped, Jiang Jingyuan's breathing became steady, and the darkness before her eyes suddenly changed.
The thick wall that had stood for so long melted and changed.
Turn into wind, wind comes and goes.
Turning into water, the stream flows "gurgling" into the distance.
Jiang Jingyuan just watched calmly, neither trying to push it to go faster nor trying to stop it from moving.
It comes and it goes.
Everything... everything he had, transformed into a powerful upward force, unstoppable and unstoppable.
Upward, ascend to heaven.
In a bamboo house in the snowy forest, Jiang Jingyuan fell to the ground on his side, his eyes as dark as the abyss suddenly lit up with light gold.
Light gold is indifferent and soft.
The red-haired fox that was running over after hearing the noise was stunned for a moment, staring at the familiar yet unfamiliar light gold, slowly opening its mouth and widening its eyes.
Jiang Jingyuan has become an immortal.
In that light gold, from the outer circle to the inner, there are faint blue, green, yellow-green, and gold, and the center is slightly darker golden red, purple and blue - the overall appearance is light gold.
If you don't look closely, it's just light gold.
She is like a fairy, yet she is definitely not comparable to a fairy.
Perfection and eternity.
Sheng Liang was so excited that his whole body was shaking. He walked up step by step and said in a trembling voice: "You, you..."
Jiang Jingyuan slowly sat up. Sheng Liang then saw that she was disheveled and unkempt, like a madman on the street. The words on the fox's lips suddenly changed, and he hurriedly transformed into a human in red.
It reached out and pulled her up, leading her out for a distance, then let go of her hand, panicked for a moment, and shouted, "I'm going to get some water!" It turned back into a fox and rushed out the door with a bang.
A belated panicked cry came from far away—
"Wait for me!"
"Don't leave yet! You must wait for me! I'll be back soon!!"
Jiang Jingyuan paused for a moment, then slowly sat back down on the ground, waiting. He only stared at the scene before him. Even if the red-haired fox came running back from outside, transformed into a human form, and dragged him out, Jiang Jingyuan would just stare at it.
The little red-haired fox took good care of her, spitting out balls of flames to warm and wipe her wet hair, and also asked her about her well-being.
Only after it all ended so quickly did Sheng Liang lean closer to her face, his eyes sparkling as he asked expectantly, "You became an immortal? How did you become one?"
Jiang Jingyuan's eyes moved, and he slowly looked towards it. Sheng Liang was not in a hurry, and his face was still full of anticipation.
"It's just as I said before," Jiang Jingyuan said calmly, "Surpass obsession and confusion, and wholeheartedly ascend to immortality."
The little fox was stunned. Although he knew that the method was difficult and simple at the same time, he still said sadly, "But I have had such experience before. Why haven't I..."
"not enough."
Caught off guard, Sheng Liang was stunned when he heard this and looked up blankly.
Jiang Jingyuan said, "It's all the obsession and confusion." Her expression was indifferent. "You can come bit by bit, it's all the same. I just happened to be affected by the 'disaster' today. All the fear and anxiety are..."
Jiang Jingyuan paused, then suddenly asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to find 'Disaster'!!!"
The red-haired fox turned his head, gritting his teeth, his expression distorted, but his eyes were full of determination. He let out a loud cry and rushed out like fire and wind!
Jiang Jingyuan: "...?"
