Nowadays, when the cultivators mentioned the ancient times, most of them yearned for it. Although it was shameful to say that the modern people were not as good as the ancient people, before the Age of Chaos, the surrounding spiritual energy was rich, and it was an indisputable fact that there were many powerful people. Right now, the number one cultivator in Nine Regions was Supreme Hetu of Shengjing Sect, who was only at the peak of Unity Stage, half a step away from the Mahayana Stage. However, this half a step gap was only crossed by a few people in thousands of years. Moreover, all of them overdrafted their potential, and after reaching the Mahayana Stage, there was no hope for further progress. As for crossing the tribulation to become an Immortal, it was really just a legend.
Compared to before the Age of Chaos, it was really incomparable.
However, for the knowledgeable people, saying that the present was not as good as the ancient was just a general statement. Although the Age of Chaos was a catastrophe, the efforts of thousands of years of cultivators were not without results. Compared to the ancient times, although the current cultivators were a bit behind in terms of stage, there were too many tricks in the same stage.
In a simple and crude way, the current cultivators' basic points were low, but their bonus points were relatively high, and overall, they were not too inferior. For example, the Nine-Tailed Fox that wreaked havoc in Blue River Region decades ago should have reached the True Immortal Stage, but wasn't it still suppressed and sealed in the body of the Lady Boss? In the past, if the Sect Leader was just a Deity Stage cultivator, the other party could destroy the sect with just a tail.
Therefore, even though Zhong Shengming had a frighteningly high stage when he was alive, breaking through the four in nine divine tribulations, but considering: first, he was just a remnant soul; second, as a modern cultivator, he had a super high bonus...
So what if the other party was a peak Mahayana Stage cultivator?
Looking at the vast and boundless dark hall, Wang Lu tried to use this reason to persuade himself to overcome the difficulty.
The peak Mahayana Stage was not invincible. In fact, it was because of the previous God Extermination Sword and God Seal that the Sword God was forced into a desperate situation that he had to use his primordial spirit self-detonation.
However, even if he lost, it was only because the Sword God was too weak at that time, and behind him was the Sword Demon, who was not inferior to the Sword God. A Mahayana Stage cultivator was by no means as simple as "high stage".
Only by seeing this endless darkness could one truly realize the distance of the Mahayana Stage. The other party was just a wisp of remnant soul that stayed in the purple mansion for a short time, but it had already left behind earth-shaking changes. This vast space was the expansion of the purple mansion to accommodate the primordial spirit of the Mahayana stage. For a Xudan Stage cultivator, it was simply boundless. Although the power and strength of the soul could not be measured by the size, faced with the difference of thousands or even hundreds of millions of times, who could argue with them in a dignified manner?
The power of the Mahayana Stage was displayed in this most intuitive way, and in this case, it would be useless to say anything more.
The only good thing was that when the situation changed, a countermeasure would surface. At this time, they weren't imprisoned in some dangerous place, but in Zhu Shiyao's Purple Palace. But because of the expansion of the Purple Palace, their Primordial Spirits seemed too small.
The problem here was that under normal circumstances, the Purple Mansion and the Primordial Spirit should be highly compatible. The Primordial Spirit's control over magic power and physical body was based on this compatibility. Using a more theoretical description, it was only when the Primordial Spirit and the Purple Mansion were compatible that the signal could be transmitted without any hindrance.
Zhu Shiyao's primordial spirit was suspended in the air, unable to contact the outside world. Thus, it was as if she was imprisoned. The solution was also simple. As long as she could get in touch with the Purple Mansion again, she could retract it. As a cultivator with Sword Spirit Root, Zhu Shiyao's root bone aptitude was the best in the world, and the adaptability of the Purple Mansion was also good enough. However, the premise was that the Primordial Spirit must be able to connect with the Purple Mansion.
Judging from the current situation, Zhu Shiyao really didn't know how long it would take before her Primordial Spirit could expand to fill the entire Purple Mansion, and it might even take forever.
The cultivation of the Primordial Spirit was not independent, it must be complemented with the tempering of the physical body. However, the depths of the Sword Tomb were isolated from the main path. In theory, it was impossible to even achieve the King Pill, so how could the Primordial Spirit be catalyzed to the level close to the Mahayana Stage?
In addition to this, the only way was to take an unconventional path, not to advance the Primordial Spirit, but to expand for the sake of expansion. However, there were also obstacles in doing this: With the Xudan Stage's Primordial Spirit, after expanding thousands of times, it would inevitably lead to the soul flying away and scattering. Wang Lu cultivated the Non-Phase Method, so his Primordial Spirit was much more condensed than ordinary cultivators. However, in a short period of time, the expansion of his Primordial Spirit by dozens of times was already the limit. If it expanded any further, he would have to bear the loss … And according to the current situation, without the expansion of tens of thousands of times, it was impossible to fully reach the Purple Mansion.
Tens of thousands of times … No matter how it was calculated, at least it would be after reaching the King Pill Realm. Therefore, this road was tantamount to being sealed.
In fact, the Sword God blew up his Primordial Spirit and formed a black hole to trap the two of them in this place, of course, was not to let them easily find a way out … According to the current situation, what was waiting for Wang Lu and Zhu Shiyao would be exhaustion and death after a long time.
Of course, there was also a problem here. That was, Sword God completely ignored the existence of another person. However, Wang Lu could not count on that Sword Demon to help him. At present, he could only consider self-reliance, although his own way to solve the problem has been cut off. Although the way to solve this problem had been cut off, it was better for two people to be trapped than one person. Fortunately, when one person couldn't do anything, he could ask the other person for help.
After telling Zhu Shiyao about his speculation, Zhu Shiyao blinked and asked, "And then?"
Wang Lu said, "Senior Sister, please inflate."
Of course, this was a joke. Even with the condensed Primordial Spirit of Wang Lu, it couldn't inflate thousands of times. Although the Eldest Senior Sister's attainments in Sword Dao were astonishingly high, it was impossible for her Primordial Spirit to be better than his.
Wang Lu only hoped that Zhu Shiyao could stand from the point of view of a top Sword Cultivator and give him advice to stimulate his inspiration.
Unexpectedly, after listening to Wang Lu's words, Zhu Shiyao just nodded. "Okay."
Then, she began to inflate. Although it was slow, it gradually expanded as if it couldn't be stopped.
Wang Lu gawked for a moment, and then hurriedly opened his mouth to dissuade her. "Hey, hey, don't take things too hard. If you're scared out of your wits because of my words, I would feel that my previous efforts to defeat you would be greatly devalued!"
However, Zhu Shiyao didn't seem to hear Wang Lu's words.
"No wonder there's a familiar aura here. It turns out to be my Purple Mansion … In that case, I just need to let my light cover this place."
As she spoke, Zhu Shiyao took a deep breath as she slowly inflated.
"Let there be light."
The next moment, the light shone brightly.
It was both bright and cold silver starlight and blazing like fire golden sunlight … Yin and Yang combined and changed. It was the peerless secret of Lingjian School's Star Peak, Star Sword Light!
In an instant, feeling the Star Sword Light surrounding his body, Wang Lu shook his head helplessly.
He really underestimated the Eldest Senior Sister's supernatural power.
He also got a simple concept wrong. In theory, the inflating of the Primordial Spirit indeed needed to be more condensed so that it wouldn't lose its shape during the inflating process. However, too much condensing would affect the inflating process.
But for the Eldest Senior Sister, the situation was completely different. The Star Sword Technique that she cultivated was the world's first-class sword technique with many variations. The power of her [One Sword to Break All Techniques] was also the result of returning to simplicity after experiencing all the flourishing. And for such a versatile technique, it was actually very easy to inflate the Primordial Spirit.
Of course, it wasn't a volume expansion in a strict sense, but a transformation of the state of the Primordial Spirit into light.
Where the light was, the God was. This was the Eldest Senior Sister's Primordial Spirit.
Tsk, I really can't help but admire her.
And at the moment when the light flashed, Wang Lu was forcibly ejected from the Purple Mansion. Zhu Shiyao had occupied every inch of space in the Purple Mansion, and there was no place for Wang Lu to stand.
After being ejected, Wang Lu only felt that everything in front of him was dark and bright, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his original body.
And in front of him, there was no longer the incomparably dazzling figure of the Eldest Senior Sister, but a cold and old face.
"You're awake? Very good, faster than I expected. "
After that, the Sword Demon stood up and said to Wang Lu, "Get up, and then accompany me for a chat."
Wang Lu nodded silently and looked around as he got up.
It was still the place where he defeated the Sword God, and the sea of bitterness around him was slowly swaying. The Eldest Senior Sister, who had just been possessed, was lying quietly at his feet, looking serene, completely different from the heroic appearance of a sword in her hand.
Wang Lu was not surprised. Transforming the form and expanding the Primordial Spirit by thousands of times, although it was a unique magical ability of the Stellar Sword Method, the Eldest Senior Sister, who was trying to reach the level of Dacheng Stage at the Xudan Stage, must have carried a great burden.
It was good that she was still there. Looking at her rosy complexion and normal breathing, she was most likely just exhausted.
"Her situation is good." Seeing what Wang Lu was thinking, the Sword Demon said lightly, "Using the magical ability of the Stellar Sword Method to transform the Primordial Spirit, she thought of it and did it. After this time, if she can survive, the power of her Primordial Spirit will double in the future. "
"Survive?" Wang Lu keenly caught the point, "What if she didn't survive?"
"Only death." The Sword Demon said, "But put her matter aside, let's talk about us."
Wang Lu was stunned for a moment, and then cupped his hands and said, "So, in view of the Sword God's death, should I congratulate you for your success?"
In fact, during the Resuscitation, Wang Lu had already seen that the Sword Demon in front of him was very different from the previous one.
Although he was still a remnant soul, after the death of the Sword God, his imposing manner had undergone a tremendous change. However, it was not the kind of sudden, ten thousand times more intense, but somewhat mysterious and indescribable … If one had to say, the current Sword Demon was more in line with the image of an ancient true immortal in Wang Lu's imagination.
Although the original Sword Demon also had a strong sense of oppression, and when the truth of many things was revealed, it made people feel even more depressed, but that was all.
The Sword Demon in front of him had gone beyond the sense of oppression, which made people unable to perceive and ponder.
The so-called Heaven's power was unpredictable, describing this situation. The Primordial Spirit of a Dacheng Stage cultivator was so powerful.
"Changed?" The Sword Demon shook his head, "I just took back what I deserve."
