It was only a few seconds, but it felt like a very long time.
As Ao Jian woke up from the state of "Sword Will Struggle", the illusion was broken and the long memory in his mind faded away.
Ao Jian was very confused about this and could not remember what he had encountered in the illusion.
Lu Wu, who saw this scene, nodded his head in satisfaction.
It was because he was the one who manipulated everything behind the scenes.
This was the sword seal of the Underworld Swordsman, which was condensed by the Water Sword Will that he had learned all his life. It still contained the consciousness of the Underworld Swordsman and had not completely dissipated.
In fact, Ao Jian's guess was right. This illusion allowed Ao Jian to relive the memory of the Underworld Swordsman.
The difference was that except for a few important turning points, all the decisions were made by Ao Jian.
If Ao Jian finished the memory of the Underworld Swordsman, then this memory would remain in Ao Jian's mind.
Although he was still Ao Jian at that time, he would recognize himself as the Underworld Swordsman.
This was because the memory of the Underworld Swordsman was not as simple as Ao Jian had thought.
Although Ao Jian's original memory would not be erased after going through the memory of the Underworld Swordsman, there was no meaning for his existence, which was equivalent to nothing.
Ao Jian had lived for as long as the Underworld Swordsman had lived. Compared to the memory of the Underworld Swordsman, Ao Jian's memory was like a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning at all.
This was because Ao Jian's memory was only a few decades old. In contrast, the memory of the Underworld Swordsman was like a vast ocean. The memory droplets that dripped into it would inevitably be engulfed and covered.
When Ao Jian had lived in the illusion for millions of years, the first few decades would become inconspicuous, like dust in the corner, and he would not even think about it.
Therefore, Ao Jian gradually forgot who he was in the illusion. He only remembered that he was pursuing the ocean of sword will and thought that he was Ah Mu.
When he first entered the illusion, Ao Jian might still have doubts and speculations. However, with the passage of time and the accumulation of experience, coupled with the passage of time, he had long forgotten who he was in the past.
This was because that memory was too short, it could even be described as insignificant …
This was also the reason why Lu Wu chose to take action.
It could be said that Ao Jian's memory had been completely overwritten by the memory of the Underworld Swordsman before he exited the illusion of the Sword Will Competition.
Although the real Underworld Swordsman had died, Ao Jian would be the new Underworld Swordsman because they had the same memories.
Although this was not the resurrection of the Underworld Swordsman, it was equivalent to a clone. It had the same memories, the same sword will, the same mental journey, and so on …
Even though the real Underworld Swordsman was dead, Ao Jian was no longer Ao Jian.
Naturally, Lu Wu would not sit idly by and do nothing about it. He took decisive measures.
Therefore, when Ao Jian withdrew from the illusion of sword will competition, the long memory and experience in his mind would gradually fade and be covered, and he could no longer remember what it was.
The purpose of this was to protect Ao Jian so that he would not lose himself.
Of course, Lu Wu was still looking forward to Ao Jian defeating and obtaining the Law of Sword Will.
After all, his "Heavenly Demon List" was currently collecting the power of laws, so this Rule Sword Intent could be used.
Moreover, as a player, Ao Jian had the ability to resurrect infinitely. Moreover, Lu Wu was helping him conceal his memory behind the scenes, so this method was completely feasible.
It was just that he might have to work harder!
…
Three hours later, Ao Jian's figure appeared at the resurrection point in the Mansion of the Dead.
This time, he did not stop at all. He decisively walked to the city gate, arrived at the Liuli Coast through the teleportation point, and then set off for the Kendo Domain.
The sudden failure and death stunned Ao Jian, but the 2% mastery of the Law of Sword Will made him feel excited.
He only remembered that he had entered a dreamland after the sword will competition of Poseidon's Sword Seal was activated.
The memory after that was a blur. It seemed that he had experienced many things and met many people, but he could not remember the specific matters no matter how hard he tried.
When he suddenly woke up, everything faded, but the sword will that he had mastered in the dreamland remained in his heart of the sword.
Therefore, Ao Jian wanted to go to the Kendo Domain again to challenge Poseidon's Sword Will. He wanted to see what was in the dreamland, and why his heart of the sword and sword will had such a huge change.
After a few days of sailing, Ao Jian once again stepped into the Kendo Domain.
At this time, the Kendo Domain was full of competition as usual. Swordsmen and players were everywhere.
As the bald mentor could not be found, and it was extremely difficult to enter the central area of the Kendo Domain, the players turned their attention to the other swordsmen who had stepped into the Kendo Domain.
This time, it was not Suiye who was devastated. The other swordsmen were also challenged by the players, and became the players' whetstone for the growth of their sword will.
Ao Jian did not pay too much attention to this, and steered the boat all the way into the Kendo Domain.
During the few days of sailing, Ao Jian had experienced seven challenges.
However, during the sword will competition, Ao Jian found that his sword will was attached with a water attribute power, and his sword will had undergone a qualitative change. Compared to when he had mastered Relentless Sword, the strength of his sword will had increased by ten times.
He had also become proficient in the use of sword will and the release of sword qi, as if his heart of the sword had been reborn.
Without exception, he had won all seven challenges. It was not like before, where he won the final victory by constantly recasting his sword will.
Such a discovery made Ao Jian happy, and he was even more eager to know what he had experienced in the illusion of the sword will competition.
With yearning, Ao Jian once again arrived at the central point of the Kendo Domain.
Not far away, the golden figure transformed by the Sea God's Sword Seal was still standing on the surface of the water, and Suiye was sitting cross-legged not far away from him.
Suiye suddenly opened his eyes when he felt an aura approaching.
When he saw the familiar figure of Ao Jian, Suiye's face was filled with disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
"How have you been!" Ao Jian greeted him with a smile.
"You … How is this possible? The Sea God's Sword Seal killed you … How did you do it!?" Suiye asked in horror.
"Do you want to learn? Let me teach you! "Ao Jian teased.
Suiye, "Yes!"
This time, Suiye said without hesitation.
Previously, Suiye could think that he had been careless and did not completely kill Ao Jian. When the rule came later and deprived the sword will, Suiye also thought that the rule of sword will had probed wrongly.
Because other than this explanation, Suiye could not find a suitable reason to explain that Ao Jian could be resurrected after his death.
However, this time, Ao Jian, who had been smashed by the Sea God's Sword Seal, was resurrected again. Obviously, the reason that he had previously thought of could no longer be explained.
At this moment, Suiye's heart was in turmoil.
Therefore, when Ao Jian asked with a teasing look, "Do you want to learn?", Suiye said without hesitation,
"Yes!"
Ao Jian was speechless.
Looking at Suiye's serious face, the corner of Ao Jian's mouth twitched.
He was joking, but it seemed that Suiye was serious.
This made Ao Jian a little embarrassed, and he tried to change the topic,
"How's your challenge going?"
Suiye shook his head with a sigh,
"My sword will can't compete with this rule of sword will unless I get the recognition of the consciousness left in the Sea God's Sword Seal. Otherwise, I can't compete with sword will to succeed in the challenge!"
"However, as long as I absorb all the sword will in the Sword Principle Field, I will definitely be able to fight with it!"
Looking at Suiye's determined expression, Ao Jian asked in confusion,
"Then why are you staying here instead of collecting sword will?"
"Didn't I tell you? There is more than one way. You can also get the rule of sword will by getting the recognition of the sword seal! "Suiye rolled his eyes.
Suiye was no longer as cold to Ao Jian as before.
This was because Ao Jian's Invincible Sword Will had gained his recognition. Just like what he said before, if they were outside the field, he would definitely take Ao Jian in as a sword disciple and let him train with him.
Moreover, Ao Jian had saved his life once, which Sui Ye remembered.
However, he only remembered it in his heart and had a good impression of Ao Jian. As for the rule of sword will, Suiye would never give in. If he could, he would rather Ao Jian die!
"Have you been chatting with the consciousness left in the sword seal for the past few days to get close to it?" Ao Jian had a strange look on his face.
Suiye was speechless.
Ao Jian's words seemed to have hit Suiye's sore spot, and his face gradually turned gloomy.
"Then continue with your work, I'll try again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Jian walked towards the golden figure again.
Suiye did not stop him, but chose to watch from the side.
Even if he was resurrected again, Suiye still did not think that Ao Jian could defeat the rule of sword will, and he was looking forward to Ao Jian being crushed by the Sea God's Sword Will again.
He did not believe that the heaven-defying resurrection ability could be repeated infinitely!
…
Once again, Ao Jian came to the front of the Sea God's Sword Seal incarnation. With anticipation, he gathered his sword will and challenged it.
At this moment, the world in front of him began to collapse and reconstruct.
When his vision became clear, he found himself in a world of yellow sand.
At the same time, the memories that were sealed by Lu Wu in his mind came flooding back.
Ao Jian suddenly came to a realization and understood what he had experienced in the illusion last time.
This time, everything started over again.
At this moment, Ao Jian suddenly understood the ultimate purpose of this illusion challenge.
In a battle of sword will, naturally, it was a competition of the strength of the sword will.
He walked the memory path of the Underworld Sword Lord, so if he wanted to defeat him, he must surpass him, instead of following the footsteps of his memory and passively accepting things.
The last Illusory Realm Challenge ended after the death of the previous Underworld Merchant Guild's Sword Venerable.
At that time, one of the eight sword envoys had to be selected to inherit the position of Sword Lord.
At that time, Ao Jian was the weakest among the eight sword envoys, and in the decision of the Underworld Chamber of Commerce, Ao Jian was excluded from the list of candidates for the position of Sword Lord.
It was also at that time that the illusion collapsed.
At this moment, Ao Jian believed that it was because he did not obtain the position of Sword Lord. At that time, he did not reach the strength and status of Sword Lord. The eight sword envoys were his limit, so he was determined to fail the challenge by the rule of sword will.
Therefore, if he wanted to win in this sword will battle, he not only had to walk the memory path of the Underworld Sword Lord, but he also had to surpass him and prove that his sword will was better than that of the Underworld Sword Lord!
After understanding the reason, Ao Jian looked up at his surroundings.
The sky was filled with yellow sand, and he squinted his eyes. Just like what he had experienced before, he suddenly felt thirsty, dizzy, and weak.
However, a strong desire to survive burst forth in his body, so he did not collapse. However, he knew that it would not be long before an old man came to rescue him.
At this moment, Ao Jian was like a cheat that could predict the future.
Under normal circumstances, if one failed in the sword will battle, the challenger would definitely be killed by Neptune's sword will.
Therefore, every challenger experienced the illusion path from the beginning. There was no advantage that they could take advantage of, and they did not know what would happen in the future. Even the sword will that they learned would be blocked by the rule of sword will, so they could only comprehend it from the beginning.
However, Ao Jian was different. For him, death was only three hours away.
Once again entering the illusion, the memories that he had experienced came back. At this time, Ao Jian had completely understood the subsequent development of the plot.
Just as he thought, about half an hour later, the figure of an old man holding a plant vine appeared in the distance. He passed through the sandstorm and slowly approached him.
A new plot had begun.
The figure was as thin as a stick, and his steps were unsteady. However, the firmness in his eyes made Ao Jian's heart tremble.
This feeling was familiar yet strange.
The old man seemed inconspicuous, but his desire for the sea had affected him, or rather, the life of the Underworld Sword Lord.
A new journey had begun again. This time, Ao Jian was no longer passively receiving help.
The last time he came, he had been watching the whole process with cold eyes. He had been guessing the reason for the illusion and analyzing all kinds of possibilities.
However, this time, he did not intend to sit still and wait for death.
Along the way, he and the old man supported each other and moved forward together.
Although there was no communication, they had used their lives to ensure that the other would survive.
Along the way, they ate and slept in the open. All the plants and small animals that could be seen became their food.
In the previous illusion, the old man had exhausted his strength in order to help Ao Jian. However, this time was obviously different from before.
Because Ao Jian was no longer a burden, he tried his best to reduce the old man's burden and struggled to survive.
After more than ten days of rushing, Ao Jian and the old man were on the verge of death several times, but they finally survived.
This time, the plot was completely different from before.
After he and the old man climbed over the hillside, they saw the blue sea together.
The breeze blew gently, and the sound of the waves hitting the reef and the sound of the seagulls above the sea intoxicated the two.
This time, the memory did not jump with the death of the old man. Finally, they had reached this place together.
Ao Jian turned his head to look at the old man who was staring at the direction of the sea. A smile appeared on his face. At least this time, he did not have the biggest regret of this illusion challenge.
As for the success or failure of the later journey, he would continue!
