Su Li's eyes flashed, and she said, "Are you … a living person?"
The middle-aged puppet smiled and shook his head, "I'm just a sub-awareness stored in the puppet's body."
"Before that …"
Su Li hesitated to speak. The middle-aged puppet said slowly, "That's your fate, and I won't stop you. But since you can break through, it shows that you are tough enough to inherit my mantle. If not, I won't show up. "
Su Li was silent for a moment, and said coldly, "How do you know that I will accept your mantle?"
"Hahahaha …"
The middle-aged man laughed, "I won't force you. If you don't want to, just refuse. But I can see that you are interested in the lineage of sword. "
Su Li's eyes flashed, and she smiled, "Senior, you are right. Then, please enlighten me."
The middle-aged man nodded gently with a gentle smile on his face.
"Attack me with the sword you comprehended."
Su Li's eyes narrowed, and the long sword in her hand immediately turned into lightning. A touch of faint black thought lingered around her.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The crisp collision of the two swords sounded continuously, mixed with the gentle teaching of the middle-aged man.
"I don't know where your soul has been. It has been transformed in advance, and it has reached the perfect realm of the nature soul. This realm can affect the reality, but it is not good for you to comprehend the intent of sword. Just now, the arbitrator of nature soul said that the sword is the obsession. You have comprehended it, but it is wrong. The obsession … is not the mind. "
Su Li's sword stopped, and the black light in her eyes quickly faded.
The middle-aged man showed a gratified expression, "Why do you hold the sword? What I want is not your simple thought, but your thought of using the sword. Do you understand? "
"No!"
Su Li gritted her teeth, and the sword in her hand attacked tirelessly, but was repeatedly blocked by the middle-aged puppet. After dispersing the thought of nature soul, she tasted the feeling of blankness in her mind again.
Blankness again and again, and slowly, she heard many voices in the dark.
"Li, are you willing to be my wife?"
"Li, no matter whether you like me or not, I'm determined to follow you!"
"…"
"… Master, your Life Ring has been broken. I'm sorry!"
"Is it worth it to trade your life for your child's future?"
"Fake, the whole world is fake. Senior Sister, you're just a tool that can be discarded after being used. Do you really think anyone will like you?"
"The Heavenly Dao would never allow such a person to be born naturally. Therefore, from the moment you were born, you were deliberately arranged by someone. Until the heavens were angry and the people resented you, you died a horrible death!"
"You won't have a good ending!!"
…
"Ah!!"
In the calm sky, an enraged cry of despair suddenly resounded, and it was like a cuckoo crying blood and filled the sky with sorrow.
The ordinary longsword was instantly coated with a layer of black flames. It was filled with a destructive aura as it slashed towards the middle-aged man!
The middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed, and he didn't dare to conserve his strength any longer. A purple light quickly condensed on his sword, and he barely managed to block this sword. However, the puppet was caught by a trace of black flame, and it instantly started burning.
The middle-aged man's face changed again and again. He had to give up his physical body and retreat to the nothingness, watching Su Li madly wielding her sword alone on the high platform.
Ao Sword Skills, Cuixing, Suiyu Tactics, and other high-level swordsmanship mixed together, rippling in the void.
"This is … Destruction Sword Essence?!"
The middle-aged man's sub-awareness hidden in the nothingness saw this scene, and his face showed horror, "How could it be … Destruction? What kind of despair is hidden in this woman's heart, and she even wants to destroy everything? "
The middle-aged man's face was grave, and he began to realize the seriousness of the matter. If a person who understood such a sword essence was not in the right state of mind, what kind of disaster would it bring to the cultivation circle?
"What kind of evildoer have I attracted? I didn't expect that I would commit such a sin after my death. It's God's will … "
The middle-aged man was full of bitterness. He was just a sub-awareness, and he couldn't affect the operation of the Star Path.
A few days later, Su Li's pneuma, genuine energy, and physical strength were all exhausted. She could only lie on the high platform and gasp. Her bloodstained clothes were soaked with sweat, and she looked like a pawn who had just survived from the battlefield.
The middle-aged man's sub-awareness slowly approached. Looking at Su Li who had lost her destructive power, he sighed softly.
After a few breaths, Su Li's physical strength recovered a little, and she got up from the ground. After a moment of silence, she deeply bowed to the middle-aged man.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man sighed more heavily.
"You can go. I won't give you my mantle. The skills you have learned are too messy. And every one of them can set off a reign of terror in the eyes of the world. If my inheritance falls into your hands, it is likely that it will disappear in the world soon. "
Su Li reluctantly showed a smile and said calmly, "I understand."
Seeing the smile on her face, the middle-aged man was slightly stunned, "You … understand what?"
"I know what you are worried about, but those … are things of a long time ago. Now I just want to find out the truth. It would be best if I don't kill. But if someone stops me, I … can't do anything. "
Su Li smiled gently, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
The middle-aged man was silent again. He had cultivated for tens of thousands of years before his death, and he had seen many people and encountered many things, but he had never seen a woman as strange as Su Li.
She clearly had resentment in her heart, and she could even understand the destruction sword essence, but she could still keep a clear mind.
Such a person …
The middle-aged man glanced at his transparent hands and suddenly laughed freely, "I'm a man in the grave, and I don't care about the righteousness of the world. Haven't I suffered enough in my life …"
As he spoke, his expression turned serious. "Little girl, what you've learned are the best mental cultivation methods and sword techniques in the world. Coupled with your Sword Intent, you're invincible among those of the same level, and you can even kill those of a higher level. But when I look at what you've learned, I find that you're still lacking something."
Su Li nodded and was not surprised, "I lack a killing move. I understand."
"Ho-ho …"
The middle-aged man smiled and took out a transparent bead from his chest, "With your intelligence, you must have thought of it long ago. I will give you my inheritance. You can use it yourself or give it to someone you like. It's up to you. But there is a sword move that is not in the inheritance, and it can only be taught by me. "
Su Li raised her eyebrows, "A killing move?"
The middle-aged man laughed, "Of course, and … it's quite powerful!"
…
An hour later, the shadow of the middle-aged man dissipated and turned into specks of starlight that melted into the nothingness.
Su Li watched this scene quietly, and then she bowed and said softly, "Goodbye, Senior."
As the starlight completely melted into the nothingness, Su Li's slightly warm face became cold again, and she said slowly, "I have passed the eighteenth step of Star Path. Now I ask for the gift of Star Path to be infused to break through to Jindan Realm!"
As soon as she said this, a cold voice sounded in the nothingness.
"As you wish!"
Whoosh —
The stone steps that had disappeared emerged one by one, and a strange luster gushed out from the fifth step. After leaving the stone steps, it condensed into a huge ball in the nothingness. After a pause, it suddenly rushed to Su Li and wrapped her whole body in it, turning her into a transparent cocoon.
Su Li slowly closed her eyes like an old monk meditating, and began to absorb the pure power in it with ease and concentration.
Shortly after she meditated, a white light flashed and stared at the cocoon with burning eyes. It turned out to be the Arbitration of Natural Soul.
"Old Sword, you've found yourself a pretty good successor …"
Su Li's absorption lasted for several years. As time went by, the transparent cocoon gradually shrunk, and finally only a layer of skin was left.
At a certain moment, Su Li suddenly opened her eyes and counted with her fingers. She found that she had stayed here for ten years.
"It's time to go out."
Su Li calmly looked at the Star Gate at the end of Star Path, and looked at the round Jindan in the center of her pubic region. Then she slipped into the Star Gate and disappeared without hesitation.
In the core of the tea plant, Black Lotus was still cursing. The Reincarnation Mirror looked sick and floated in the nothingness. No one knew what had happened during this time.
All of a sudden, a Star Gate was constructed, and Su Li, who looked like a beggar, walked out of it in ragged clothes and hair.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Black Lotus Ring, Reincarnation Mirror, Nightmare … and all the other treasures returned in an instant.
Black Lotus was stunned when he saw Su Li, and then he seemed to see a ghost, "Su Li, you, you, you … are back?!"
Su Li frowned slightly and asked, "How long has it been?"
"It's only been an hour!"
Black Lotus shouted, "An hour. My master, what did you do on the Star Path? You set a record for the shortest time to get out of the Star Path. Did the master of the Star Path look down on you and kick you out directly?
That shouldn't be the case. I have never heard of anyone who failed in the Star Path and came out alive … "
Su Li stopped listening to Black Lotus's chatter and was slightly surprised.
Ten years … in an hour?
The time conversion this time was even more exaggerated than last time. But except for the rebellious spiritual body, everything else was normal.
"Is it because I invited the Arbitration of Nature Soul?"
Su Li couldn't understand why there were accidents every time on her Star Path. Fortunately, no matter how difficult the process was, she came out successfully.
Thinking of this, Su Li turned over her palm, and a transparent light ball appeared in her palm. Before Black Lotus could see what it was, she put it away.
"Little Su Li, tell me what you encountered on the Star Path."
"I was chased all the way to the seventeenth step and almost died there. Finally, I invited the Arbitration of Nature Soul to survive."
"Tell me the truth!"
"…"
After playing with Black Lotus for a while, Su Li's heart seemed to be less heavy. After taking back the Cang Lei's Cave, she walked out of the core main gate of the tea plant.
She already knew some ways to use the Nature Soul, so she was not as cautious as before.
According to the words of Senior Sword, the perfect Nature Soul was extremely rare even in Huashen Realm. In Yuxu Sect, if she wanted to meet someone in Huashen Realm, she had to break into the forbidden area.
"Su Li, you came out so soon?"
On the Tea Peak, Black Lotus looked at the disciples who passed by Su Li without noticing, and his heart trembled.
If they were exposed, it was unknown whether they could escape or not. Su Li was too bold.
Su Li did not answer. She turned a corner on the mountain road, and a chill suddenly came to her face.
