The image in his mind lingered for a long time and Lin Xiu did not notice that his eyes were covered in a layer of crystal.
It turned out that the powerful sword immortal in his mind also had things that he could not do.
Lin Xiu felt that he had gained a lot from the trial grounds of the Netherworld Palace. Putting aside the mental strength skills, just the images of the Blood-robed General Ye Wang and the Green Lotus Sword Celestial Ye Fan in his mind were enough to benefit him for life.
The journey of a person was not always smooth sailing. No matter how high one's cultivation was, there were things that one could not do. No matter how long one lived, there would be regrets in one's heart. Even those who seemed to be free and easy would definitely have unspeakable sorrow behind their backs.
Whether or not a person was living a good life, whether or not they were living a comfortable life, perhaps only they themselves would know.
The crystal at the corner of his eyes dissipated, but Lin Xiu's fighting spirit did not diminish. He knew that although there were many things in life that he could not grasp, if his cultivation was not high enough, those things might come one after another. Only when he became strong enough could he rise from the ashes again and again.
'Whatever can't destroy me will make me stronger. 'Lin Xiu secretly said to himself.
Looking at the long sword in his hand, there was no longer much fear in Lin Xiu's eyes. Instead, there was a touch of sadness. Through the image in his mind, Lin Xiu understood that this sword should be one of the swords of Green Lotus Sword Immortal Ye Fan, Wangjiang Sword.
Wangjiang Sword, the wind and clouds were shocked! Wangjiang Sword, the world was in chaos!
The Wangjiang Sword in his hand seemed to be able to sense what Lin Xiu was thinking and the sword body kept buzzing. This was lamenting the departure of its old master and also welcoming the arrival of its new master.
That's right, when Lin Xiu first stepped on the stone steps, it had already chosen Lin Xiu to be its master. As for the other two weapons, whether or not Lin Xiu could obtain them depended on his own luck.
Lin Xiu, who was holding the Wangjiang Sword, only felt that the sword in his hand seemed to have the ability to make the gods and demons retreat. It was simply too powerful.
Even the stone steps that were originally very oppressive seemed to have vanished the moment he picked up the Wangjiang Sword as if it had never existed.
920 steps, 930 steps, 950 steps …
Finally, Lin Xiu stood on the 998th stone step and was only one step away from the top. He could clearly see that after the last stone step, there was a simple and unadorned pavilion. On both sides of the pavilion was a weapon that exuded a mysterious aura. Compared to the Gazing River Sword, they were not inferior.
The Wang River Sword in his hand was not in a hurry to urge Lin Xiu to move up, but emitted a burst of light that enveloped Lin Xiu, allowing him to withstand the pressure from the other two weapons.
After a long and arduous journey, was he finally going to arrive at his final destination? The moment Lin Xiu obtained the Gazing River Sword, he had already made up his mind that his journey would end at the top of the mountain. Because from the conversation between Elder Bai and Nine Nether, Lin Xiu understood that the Netherworld Palace was not the path he wanted to take. No matter how strong his cultivation was, if all the people close to him left him, he would only end up alone.
Lin Xiu's motivation for cultivation had always been to treat his father's serious injuries and reunite with his family. For this, he was willing to pay any price.
But to say that it was just for the sake of improving his cultivation, Lin Xiu knew that he could not do it like Nine Nether in the Netherworld Palace.
Although he was not a good person, he still had a bottom line and he was very clear about what he wanted.
Perhaps, when one's wish is fulfilled, one would also want to see the scenery at the peak of cultivation. However, that would be built on the basis of reuniting with one's parents. As for now, life would be too boring if one did not have one's own belief.
Thus, Lin Xiu looked at the pavilion not far away and resolutely took the last step.
Buzz!
A gentle breeze brushed past his face and all the pressure and fatigue suddenly disappeared. Lin Xiu's spirit was unprecedentedly relaxed after stepping on the stone steps.
This stone path actually could not be said to be dangerous. On the contrary, it was quite kind to those who stepped on it. This should be the means of the old man called Elder Bai. If it was the original Netherworld Palace, even if Lin Xiu could come here, he would definitely die.
Since he was already here, he might as well see what kind of opportunity the majestic voice was talking about.
Without hesitation, Lin Xiu directly came to the pavilion without even looking at the other two weapons. Lin Xiu was already very satisfied to be able to get the recognition of the Gazing River Sword.
"Little guy, the 999 stone steps actually tests your temperament. If you are evil and bloodthirsty, you will be killed by the Murderous Heaven Spear at the front of the stone steps." In front of Lin Xiu, a layer of white light gathered and turned into the image of an old man with white hair and beard.
Lin Xiu was happy to see the old man. The old man in front of him was Elder Bai.
"Thank you senior for taking care of me along the way, but didn't senior die? Why … "Lin Xiu cupped his fists and thanked him, but there was still some doubt on his face.
Elder Bai smiled slightly, "That's right, my real body has long fallen, but that Nine Nether was able to escape with a spirit body, so I can naturally maintain a remnant of my consciousness."
"Hey, I didn't notice it earlier. You're interesting, little guy, you actually have a spirit body in your body. Let me see what's going on."
After saying that, Elder Bai did not move, but a layer of fiery red light suddenly appeared on the surface of Lin Xiu's body, and the figure of Lord Feng Huo was revealed.
In front of Elder Bai, Lord Feng Huo was very obedient and did not have the arrogant look he had in front of Lin Xiu.
As soon as he appeared, Lord Feng Huo bowed to the figure of Elder Bai, "Junior Huang Ling'er greets Elder Bai."
"Oh? It's actually a little guy from the Fire Phoenix Clan. Interesting, let me see how you ended up like this. "
Elder Bai stretched out his hand and pointed gently at Lord Feng Huo. Lord Feng Huo suddenly found that with the strength of his soul at the peak of Heavenly Yuan Realm, he could not resist at all in front of Elder Bai. Even if Elder Bai was just a remnant of consciousness, not even a spirit body, and his cultivation was not even 100%.
Soon, Elder Bai found out everything he wanted to know from Lord Feng Huo, then his face was a little bleak, "I have a deep relationship with your Fire Phoenix Clan. If I can preserve a remnant of my spirit body, it won't be difficult for me to rebuild your physical body. It's just that I've already consumed too much energy to wait for this little guy to arrive, and I still have to hide the aura here from the people of Netherworld Palace. It's really a little difficult now."
Hearing Elder Bai's words, Lord Feng Huo was a little disappointed, but he soon felt relieved, "Senior, you don't have to blame yourself. When Lin Xiu reaches Heavenly Yuan Realm, I think he'll be able to help me gather the materials to rebuild my physical body."
"You're quite open-minded. That's fine. It's not necessarily a bad thing for you. You'll be able to break through to the Universe Realm when you succeed in reconstructing your physical body from a spiritual body." Old Man Bai twirled his beard and seemed quite satisfied with Lord Feng Huo's words.
Lin Xiu, who was standing at the side, could not help but frown. His innate talent had been sealed when he was a baby, and he did not know if Elder Bai could do anything about it.
At that moment, Lin Xiu told his experience to the old man in detail and stared at him with anticipation.
Old Man Bai flew into a rage. "The Mu Clan is still as inflexible as before. Now that the continent isn't peaceful, they don't want to strengthen themselves. Instead, they set their sights on sectarian views. How foolish."
After saying that, he waved at Lin Xiu, and Lin Xiu's figure floated towards him uncontrollably.
After pondering for a moment, Elder Bai's gaze seemed to be able to directly see through Lin Xiu's soul and bloodline. In just an instant, he saw through the seal in Lin Xiu's bloodline.
"Little guy, I can break the seal in your bloodline for you, but there are two ways. I wonder which one will you choose?" Elder Bai looked at Lin Xiu and smiled.
Hearing this, Lin Xiu was ecstatic. He forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart and said loudly, "Senior, please enlighten me."
"First, I'll directly remove the seal for you. With your bloodline, you should be able to reach the strength of Universe Realm in the future. Second, I'll put another layer of seal on you, completely isolating your bloodline. When you reach Heavenly Yuan Realm, my seal will be directly removed. At that time, you should be able to break the seal in your bloodline by yourself, but at that time, your bloodline will only be a support, and your body will be the foundation. "Elder Bai touched his snow-white beard.
Lin Xiu was confused by these words, and he did not know what bloodline as a support at all meant.
"Senior, please explain it briefly."
"It's very simple. Just like the Monster Clan, there are actually people with extraordinary bloodlines in the human clan, but their future achievements are limited by their bloodline. If I were the one who broke the seal for you, your future achievements would stop at the Universe Mirror. It's up to you how you choose. " Elder Bai said unhurriedly, then looked at the little guy in front of him with interest. He wanted to know if Lin Xiu could resist this temptation.
What surprised him was that Lin Xiu did not hesitate at all and said directly, "I choose the second option."
"Very good, but can you tell me the reason, little guy?" He actually quite agreed with Lin Xiu's choice, but Lin Xiu did not even think about it and directly gave his answer, which made him a little curious.
