Chapter 288 Specious
Following the list and visiting people over the next few days, Tiedan basically came up with a pattern: these days, basically none of the landlords were good people, so if you kill every other one, you'll miss one, so you can be sure to kill them all.

In the past, there might be people who complained that Tiedan was going too far, but now most of Genzhou has sided with the rebels and paid tribute to Ye City. Naturally, the Immortal Palace Xuanmen will no longer protect them, so it would be even easier for Tiedan to kill them.

This is what they call the butt determines the head.

So later on, Tiedan was too lazy to distinguish right from wrong. Basically, every time he patrolled to a place, he would first call out the ancestors, family heads, and servants, cut off their heads with flying swords, and then ask the rest of the people to pay half of the tribute. Anyway, the owners of these villages, mines, and lands could not escape, and if the payment was not enough, he would come back and continue to kill the leaders. Anyway, if you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will do it.

Tiedan looked at the blood oozing out of his sleeves.

"I calculated that I have killed about 300 to 500 people, how come I haven't collected a hundred dollars yet?"

Dark and bright,

"There is still a lot missing, young master. Many of them are just gentry and local tyrants, poor commoners, whose family status is not good enough to be in the eyes of the mountain gate, and they are not worthy of this list at all."

Tiedan sighed.

"With so many people sucking blood and eating marrow, no wonder they are still burning firewood and paying tribute after thousands of years."

Zhan Tie laughed and said,

"That's how they want to live. Sir, you don't need to cultivate your mind in the mortal world, so just ignore it.

Hey, there is a magical spring in that mountain, let's go down and bathe, young master."

"Bathing... Why do you always want to take a bath..."

Tiedan was dissatisfied. He took a bath whenever he felt like it. He would just take a bath when it rained.

After all, they are not mortals anymore. They have cultivated all the Qi points in their body. If there is any dirt, they can just use the sword Qi to scrape it out. There is no need to wash it. I guess they are just looking for an excuse to change clothes. They have stolen a lot of clothes and jewelry from others...

"Sir, although this body is suppressed by the Yuan Shen, the sword in our abdomen is also injured. We should hide the blade and the sword. Our daily actions will be affected by both sides."

"This Shen family can't stand the blood stains on their bodies. It's itchy and they have to wash it. Please, sir."

"Tsk, I'm so annoyed. Hurry up and don't be so slow."

So Tiedan casually set up the Yaoguang Sword Formation to protect them.

"Thank you, sir!"

While the two chattering ones were gone, Tiedan was finally able to sit on the cloud and think about the real business of cultivation.

It is not enough to just complete the mission and kill people according to the list. After completing it, it will only enrich Benshan, and there is still a hundred yuan of money to be collected to recruit soldiers.

Although the Beichen Sword Biography was not too difficult for Tiedan now, the time was tight and the pressure was huge to achieve the God Transformation within 60 years.

Refining Qi, Building Foundation, Forming Dan, Yuanying, Transforming Spirit, Enlightenment

Whether it is the true teachings of the three major sects or the side sects and miscellaneous practitioners, this set of standards is universal, and there is naturally a reason for its existence. If everyone in the world can form a sword infant in three years like Tiedan, then there is no need to specially divide the previous realms.

In other words, each of these realms and each of the thresholds they represent will indeed screen out a large number of practitioners, resulting in a large number of people who, for various reasons, remain in this realm for a long time, and therefore have special names.

The first thing is aptitude, root bones and spiritual veins, and whether one has the basic physique of a practitioner. If one cannot breathe smoothly, regulate the breath, and complete the basic cycle of refining qi, then one is not qualified to cross the first threshold of the Great Dao. The difference between immortals and mortals is so cruel.

The second is the character. Whether the foundation-building realm can break through the inner elixir actually has its own tribulations, which is the most common killing tribulation. Ability is secondary, but the key is to dare to fight. After all, cultivation is to change fate against the will of heaven. If you don't even have the character to dominate the fate of others and control your own fate, how can you say that your fate is not controlled by heaven?

Then there is the fate of the immortals, the Dharma friends and the land. There is no need to say more. This is no longer the era of going out to pick up treasures. It is extremely difficult to form a Nascent Soul in the Golden Core Realm. If you don't have some luck, you almost have to find a way to rely on the big trees of the three major sects to get shade.

Even if he tried his best like Tiedan, he had to learn the teachings of the Sword Sect, benefit from the Xuan Sect, and obtain the Nine-Star Sword Scripture to change his fate. Otherwise, if he really couldn't get any resources at all, no matter how talented he was, it would be useless.

Also because of his three aspects of talent, Taoist heart and immortal fate, Tiedan really stood out and reached the pinnacle. It was not difficult for him to form an infant in three years and move forward courageously.

The difficult part comes next, which is competing for resources.

Resources are what the Nascent Soul Realm needs to accumulate the most. After all, at this level, quality alone is not enough, and absolute quantity is also needed.

Because the action of refining qi and transforming spirit is not difficult in itself. To put it simply, it is to integrate essence, qi and spirit into a trinity, and refine the body of Taoism to be perfect and flawless. All you need to do is spend enough time, enough qi, and practice it repeatedly.

For example, if Tiedan wants to turn his body into a sword, then all he needs to do is use various natural treasures and the power of heaven and earth, and according to the Nine Lights Sword Sutra, temper himself and hone him into a magic sword.

But there are no massive resources falling from the sky in this world, and those that exist have been divided up by the three major sects. Therefore, Yuanying Zhenren can only work for the sect all year round in exchange for huge amounts of natural materials and treasures to replenish the required spiritual energy, and then sit in seclusion in the mountains, using these spiritual energy to polish and forge his own spiritual body.

So strictly speaking, it is not difficult to become a god, but what is difficult is the strength of the god.

If you are struck by a thunderbolt, you can actually become a spirit immediately. Some demons, for example, can become spirits without being struck by a thunderbolt. But what good is it? Such a Dao body will be scattered once it is killed, and the primordial spirit will be annihilated immediately. It is better not to build it.

Therefore, according to the general experience of the Xuanmen, it is safer to practice for at least a thousand years and pass through three thunders before becoming a god. Every time you use the heavenly thunder tribulation to cleanse your Taoist body, defeat the parts that are not yet condensed and perfect, and recast and strengthen them. The god that is transformed through three thunder tribulations is quite strong. If you continue to resist, there is a risk that you will not be able to withstand it, be hit by thunder and suffer hidden injuries, and your skills will be greatly damaged, which is not worth the loss.

Of course, in theory, the more you can withstand, the better. If you want, you can get struck by lightning as many times as you want. The more you get struck, the stronger you will be. As long as you can withstand it, can afford it, and have enough resources to cultivate again, you can get struck by lightning every day.

Well, so besides looking for massive natural treasures and cultivation resources, the most important thing for Tiedan is to find himself struck by lightning.

After all, he turned into a god within sixty years, but there is no thunder to turn him into a chicken? He needs to be struck by thunder, and then he needs to rebuild after being struck down, and then he needs to be struck again after being repaired. He needs to repeat this process three or four times before he can be transformed. Only then can his strength be guaranteed. He can't wait to get some thunder from others...

What? The key to spiritual enlightenment?

I don’t know about Tiedan. It’s not mentioned in the Nine-Star Sword Sutra or the Taoist Canon, but maybe it has something to do with IQ?
After all, enlightenment depends on 'enlightenment'.

Some truths are right there. If you know them, you will know them. If you don’t know them, you won’t know them. If you can’t figure them out yourself, no one else can teach you.

As for how to break through the void and catch up with the three masters, maybe I can ask Kun someday.

Anyway, I'll make some money this year, use 300 yuan to get a Xuanmen identity, and then find some lightning to strike me next year. If I calculate this way, I don't know if I can find two more lightning to strike me within 60 years...

Ok?
Tiedan frowned, and suddenly his consciousness moved. He opened his eyes and saw a figure, hiding underground, sneaking into the woods, and sneaking towards the spirit pool. He was probably trying to do something bad to Huiming Zhantie who was bathing in the pool.

Probably because Tiedan's sword light flew too high, the opponent didn't notice it and ignored Tiedan. He swaggered into the formation in front of him, stepped on the Gangdou, limped, and skillfully passed through the Yaoguang sword formation set up by Tiedan's sword light.

Tiedan wanted to kill him with a simple move, but he saw that the man was very skilled and quick in passing through the formation, so he must have seen this formation before, and he might be a Xuanmen, an acquaintance of the Yaoguang lineage. So he also protected his body with the Wuxiang sword qi, flew down without a shadow, and followed the man all the way to the edge of the pool.

At this time Huiming Zhantie was bathing in the pool. The man did not come forward, but hid in the bushes and watched secretly, moving his hands around, as if he was calculating.

Tiedan frowned.

"What are you doing? Have you ever seen a naked woman?"

"!"

The man didn't dodge or evade. Instead, he turned his head and made a hushing gesture to Tiedan.

Then Tiedan discovered that this person actually had no eyes.

Either he's cursing, or his forehead is flat, like a steamed bun, with nothing special about it.

"you……"

Tiedan was immediately shocked and couldn't help but recall the faceless immortals he had seen before.

But the problem is, if you look closely, you can see that this person is only missing a pair of eyes on his upper jaw, while his mouth and nose are still there.

"Shh..."

The man was extremely anxious. He raised his left index finger to seal his mouth, pointed at the lake with his right finger, and wrote in the mud on the ground:
'Xian'

Tiedan had a cold face and was practicing sword techniques. He made up his mind that if this guy wrote the word "zi", he would turn into a ball and hit him to death.

Then the Blind Man wrote,
'Non-immortal'

Tiedan: "......?" "Crash."

Then, before Tiedan could react, the sound of water suddenly came from the pool.

Looking up, I saw Huiming and Zhantie, who had taken off their Taoist robes and were sitting cross-legged on the water, their eyes slightly closed, their lips slightly parted, their tongues exposed, and they actually split...

Uh, it was the back. The back was torn. They stood back to back, clasped their hands together, formed the Xuannv seal, and a line of blood appeared on their spines. Then their backs were like a blood eagle spreading its wings and tearing apart, revealing white bones and the sharp sword energy. Then the blood, tendons and flesh strips on their backs connected together as if knitting a sweater, sewing the two people into one body.

And then the two people actually joined together. The snow-white human body was like a cocoon of skin and flesh, with blood and flesh blending together inside, and bursts of light, trembling like a heartbeat.

What the hell is this special code?
Tiedan was also startled for a moment. The blind man approached him, pulled his sleeve, and gave him a look, indicating that he should go out and talk later.

"..."

Tiedan didn’t know how to understand his eyes, but it might be similar to Kun’s situation.

So while the two were still practicing together with their backs to each other, Tiedan followed the eyeless man out of the sword formation.

The two of them did not speak, one in front and one behind, riding the wind and walking for ten miles, and then they came to a bear cave and drove the bear away. The Blind Man then stopped and spoke.

"You are the one who raised those immortals! How do you raise them? Teach me!"

Because there were too many complaints, Tiedan decided not to kill him for the time being and to focus on the main contradiction first.

"What is a non-immortal?"

"……you do not know?"

The blind man was stunned, and teleported in front of Tiedan, staring into Tiedan's eyes.

"Then how can you see it?"

Tiedan held the sword light like a rice dumpling leaf between his fingertips and had it on the neck of the blind man.

"One question, one answer."

The Blind Man and Tiedan looked at each other for a moment and nodded.

"it is good."

Then he flashed back to where he was.
"Did you raise that pair of immortals?"

Tiedan Road,
"They are originally female nuns in the Taoist sect, not pets. They are nothing but immortals."

Blind humanity,

"The seemingly immortal, looks like an immortal on the outside, but is actually not an immortal on the inside. It is not an immortal. Similarly, if it looks like a demon on the outside, but is actually replaced on the inside, it is not a demon... If you don't even know this, how can you see it?"

Tiedan hesitated for a moment.

"Probably because I am a descendant of the Shi family of Kan country."

The Blind Man spread his hands and said, "So what? Is it awesome?"

Tiedan was silent for a moment.

"The Shi family, a royal family of Kan country, seems to be a hybrid of an immortal and a demon dragon. Occasionally, some of their descendants become demons and can see things that ordinary people cannot see."

The blind man frowned and calculated.

"Why can't you see the Dharma? What have you seen that ordinary people can't see? Is there anyone else in your family who can see non-immortals?"

"One question and one answer."

Tiedan said unhappily,

"Where in the Taoist canon did the name Feixian come from? Why have I never heard of it?"

Blind people,
"I've never heard of it normally. I made up the name."

"..."

Tiedan really wanted to kill him with a sword.

Blind humanity,

"But this thing is real, probably a brand new demon. I've observed that some strange things are mixed in with the demons, and they are lumped together just because they have the same strange shapes and the same bloodthirstiness and cannibalism.

But they are actually different from demons, because when ordinary people see them, they turn a blind eye. When immortals see them, they also treat them as nothing. Only people like you and me, who are born with wisdom eyes, can see their true form and appearance. "

Tiedan looked at the other party's "wise eyes" with suspicion.

Blind humanity,

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. In recent years, there have been more and more non-immortals and non-demons. Along the way, I have seen many demon monks, and there are signs of non-immortals and non-demons invading.

I have never seen this kind of thing before, and I don’t know how they change. I have killed a few of them, but they are not clear. I can’t find out the details and don’t understand where they come from.

Since you are the one raising the immortal, take good care of it and see what changes it undergoes after it dies."

Tiedan frowned.

"Feathering?"

The Blind Man was silent for a moment, his face stern, and he came up and whispered,
"Don't tell others. I think that the immortals who have ascended to heaven may not be immortals..."

Tiedan looked at him, sighed and shook his head.

"I have no idea what you are talking about..."

The Blind Man smiled and patted Tiedan on the shoulder.

"It's better not to know. Some things are best left unseen and unheard. Okay, wake up."

Awake……

"Sir?"

Tiedan suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sitting cross-legged on the cloud, with Huiming Zhantie serving beside him.
"Why did your soul leave your body, young master?"

"Fortunately, we arrived in time to protect him. Otherwise, the demons and monsters would have injured the young master's body, which would be a sin."

Tiedan stared at them with his eyes wide open. He saw that the two of them had taken off their green Taoist robes and changed into new clothes.

Huiming was wearing a peach pink palace dress and a thin silk bodice, through which her navel was faintly visible.

The Zhan Tie was wearing a fairy-like crimson purple dress with colorful ribbons wrapped around her body, revealing her back.

"You guys... are done washing..."

When Huiming Zhantie saw Tiedan's burning gaze staring at him, he felt a little embarrassed for a moment and murmured in a low voice,
"Well, well..." "Sir, do you have any other instructions?"

Tiedan was silent for a while, and then he suppressed the urge to use his sword to split them in half to get a clearer look.

"It's okay. Let's go to the next one."
