Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Time passed, I don’t know how long it took.

Zhou Yiqiao's eyes suddenly lit up with a bright light, and a look of realization appeared on his face.

He raised his head and looked at the towering zombie predecessor. After taking a deep breath, he stretched out his right hand.

The spiritual power of the entire city turned into a whirlwind, poured into the giant tower, quickly condensed in Zhou Yiqiao's right hand, and finally turned into a snow-white sword.

It was the bone sword that the zombie predecessor had deliberately damaged before!

As the bone sword appeared, the sword intent of rebirth that had been drained from Zhou Yiqiao's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

Zhou Yiqiao smiled and bowed forward, expressing his gratitude in a sincere tone.

"very good."

Senior Zombie nodded in appreciation.

"Since you have comprehended your own sword of rebirth, you already have the ability to defeat me."

The figure of the zombie predecessor suddenly shrank rapidly, and returned to the size of a normal human in the blink of an eye.

"But before you defeat me, tell me how you comprehended the sword intent of rebirth."

"If there is any mistake, this remnant of my soul can help you correct it."

Senior Zombie stood with his hands behind his back, as if he had no intention of competing with Zhou Yiqiao anymore.

"Then I'll bother you, senior."

Zhou Yiqiao bowed respectfully, and then began to talk about the origin of the sword of rebirth and his own process of understanding it.

"Since I entered this fantasy world of yours, everything I have seen along the way is almost all of your past life."

“I was thinking, is the word ‘rebirth’ in the sword intent of rebirth the truth that you realized after reviewing your life?”

Zhou Yiqiao paused and then spoke.

"Then I thought of the illusion I saw earlier. You lived for your family in the first half of your life. It was not until the second half that you gradually awakened to your own life."

“Thus, I have finally comprehended the essence of the sword intent of rebirth.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at the zombie senior in front of him with hope.

"You are quite right, but you are missing the last sentence."

Senior Zombie looked pleased and nodded with a smile.

"Although your sword of rebirth has somewhat comprehended the profound meaning that I want to convey, it has not yet reached perfection."

"And the last sentence is..."

"Only by following your heart can you be reborn without regrets!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao looked at the phantom of his predecessor with a smile and spoke out in rebuttal for the first time.

"Senior is wrong."

Senior Zombie raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously.

"Oh? Where did I go wrong?"

Zhou Yiqiao bowed respectfully.

"Senior, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean to say that your sword intention is wrong."

A confident smile appeared on his face.

"I want to say that I have always wanted to live forever since the first day I set foot on the road to immortality."

"For the younger generation, only immortality is the eternal belief."

His tone was sonorous and firm, as if he was telling the zombie senior, or warning himself.

"Haha."

After hearing what he said, Senior Zombie couldn't help but laugh.

The smile showed some surprise at first, then admiration, and finally a look of relief.

"What a wonderful person."

He sighed, shaking his head.

"Although there is no one who practices Taoism without the goal of longevity."

"But it's rare to find someone as persistent as you, who can become a belief. This is the first time I've met one."

"I am looking forward to it. Can you break the shackles of the Tianchen Realm and achieve the immortality you are pursuing?"

Senior Zombie stared at Zhou Yiqiao with great interest, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he felt.

"Come on, do it. After you destroy this phantom of mine, you will be able to fully comprehend the sword intent of rebirth and return to the real world!"

He suddenly opened his arms without any intention of resisting.

"I promised you that I will fulfill my promise as soon as possible after I am out of this trouble."

Zhou Yiqiao let out a breath and nodded solemnly.

"I will never fail in my mission!"

After saying that, he raised the bone sword in his hand and slashed at the zombie predecessor with all his strength.

"Boom!"

When the bone sword fell, the heaven and earth trembled, and a terrifying air wave spread out, blowing Zhou Yiqiao's clothes rustling.

But Zhou Yiqiao seemed not to feel the gust of air. His body stood straight as a pine tree without any hesitation.

The zombie senior still stood there motionless, allowing Zhou Yiqiao to attack him.

“Crack…Crack!”

The bluestone slabs under his feet broke into pieces, and hideous cracks spread out in all directions.

After a moment, the ground under the zombie predecessor's feet was covered with dense spider web cracks, like a spider web covering the sky.

"boom!"

Finally, under Zhou Yiqiao's fierce attack, the body of the zombie predecessor gradually cracked and became fragmented.

The entire environment constructed by the consciousness of the predecessors collapsed in an instant and disappeared cleanly.

When everything was settled, Zhou Yiqiao slowly opened his eyes.

His figure once again returned to Qinjian Villa.

"Master, you finally woke up!"

When Qi Jian heard the noise in the room, he quickly pushed the door open and came to Zhou Yiqiao's side.

"Ah."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly, looked up at the utensils in the room that were obviously covered with a layer of dust, and asked with some surprise.

"How long have I been in seclusion?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Jian lowered his head and checked carefully, then reported.

"Three years and six months."

"so long?"

Zhou Yiqiao frowned in surprise.

You have to know that he is still in Qinjian Villa. Logically speaking, it is impossible for the other party to let him retreat peacefully for such a long time.

really.

Just as he was about to inquire about the situation, another group of guards in bright yellow robes rushed in.

The leader was a burly man.

He had a mustache on his forehead, sunken cheeks, and a hooked nose that made him look extremely gloomy.

The other party seemed to have been waiting outside the house for a long time, and rushed in as soon as he found that Zhou Yiqiao had woken up.

After seeing the person on the bed clearly, that person's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light.

"Zhou Yiqiao, you openly ignored the orders of the Qingmu lineage and allowed your men to harm your fellow disciples. What crime should you be punished for?!"

Hearing this voice, the Seven Swordsmen immediately stood in front of Zhou Yiqiao and shouted sternly.

"How dare you! I've already told you that the master is in seclusion and should not be disturbed. You tried to force your way in, but your strength is inferior to that of a servant like me. How dare you slander my master now!?"

"Haha, that's just nonsense."

The hook-nosed man narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice.

"The laws of my Qinjian Villa are strict, which cannot be compared with the crooked ways of your Netherworld Demon Sect!"

"Come on, push directly into the Great Dream Swamp. If there is any obstacle, don't hold back!"
