Chapter 381: White Crane Flowing Light? (2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio i Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Immortal Slaying Sword floated within the light spots, absorbing the scattered sword intent with fervor.

Before long, the colorful light spots in the sky disappeared.

The immortal sword, Five-colored Flowing Light, had been completely obliterated.

[Ding! Due to your absorption of the immortal sword, Five-colored Flowing Light, your heavens law, Immortal Slaying Sword, has been upgraded…] [Currently, the heavens law, Immortal Slaying Sword Intent, upgraded to level

2]

In the face of the upgraded Immortal Slaying Sword Intent, Lu Yuan seemed as

if he hadn’t heard anything.

He continued to steadily make his way towards the mountaintop.

After devouring the Broken Corpse Eyes, Myriad Mountains, and the Five-colored Flowing Light, the surrounding immortal swords grew even more fearful of Lu Yuan.

This was the first time such a situation had occurred since the appearance of the Myriad Sword Mountain, Sword Tomb.

Previously, cultivators who entered the Mountain Sword Mountain couldn’t even absorb the sword intent from these swords, let alone withstand the sword intent and killing intent to reach Lu Yuan’s current position.

And now, Lu Yuan not only was on the verge of reaching the summit but had also defeated all the various immortal and fierce swords that attempted to stop him in an almost invincible manner.

Faced with such a formidable opponent, the immortal swords on the Myriad Swords Mountain almost unanimously chose to evade.

After all, even the top ten immortal swords like the Five-colored Flowing Light and the Myriad Mountains were unable to obstruct Lu Yuan. The other immortal swords that were not even in the top ten naturally stood no chance. At the same time, Lu Yuan was only fifty meters away from the mountaintop.

As he stepped into the 50 meters range, a ball of white mist instantly enveloped his body.

“Daoist, quite a skill you have…”

Lu Yuan came to a halt for the first time and raised his gaze towards the mountaintop.

He saw an old man with an immortal aura standing near the mountaintop, smiling at him.

Unlike the other immortal swords on the Myriad Sword Mountain, the old man before him appeared tranquil.

If the other immortal swords were warriors emanating a killing intent, then the old man before him was akin to a gentle old scholar, harmless and benign in appearance.

However, it was this seemingly kind old man that caused Lu Yuan to stop in his tracks.

“Daoist, do you know the current year?”

Lu Yuan looked at him and replied, “The heavens Era, year 9672.”

“There’s already a new era? It seems that more than ten thousand years have passed since my passing…Time truly flies.”

The heavens Era was divided into epochs of ten thousand years. Although Lu Yuan had only recently arrived in the Upper Realm, he still had a basic understanding of time.

“Daoist, upon my initial observation, you appeared rather ordinary. Yet upon closer inspection, I noticed a quality within you that the succeeding immortals lack. Perhaps…that is the Dao I’ve been earnestly searching for.” Following his sentiments, the old man suddenly spoke, “Daoist, would you be interested in hearing my story?”

With those words, the environment surrounding the old man and Lu Yuan underwent a sudden transformation.

For reasons unknown, the two found themselves in a serene courtyard. Within the courtyard, mountains, and rivers coexisted, and incense and tea were being prepared on a stone table.

Glancing at the old man, who had already seated himself, Lu Yuan nodded.

“Yes.”

Lu Yuan sat before the old man, listening quietly to his story. “Observing your demeanor, Daoist, it’s evident that you are on the path to becoming an immortal. How wonderful.”

“People often extol the virtues of cultivating to become immortal, but they are oblivious to the hardships endured along this path.”

“The term ‘immortals’ pertains to both the towering mountains and the pairs of individuals.”

“Visible mountains are indeed mountains, while invisible mountains… are also mountains.”

‘■We, as celestial cultivators, are akin to mountaineers. Only when we scale the mountain within our hearts can we truly attain the status of immortals.” “Yet, most of us, myself included, spend our entire lives wandering within the confines of our inner mountains. We are unable to perceive or discover the captivating mountains beyond.”

“I, Crane, deemed myself to possess exceptional innate talent. In my first life, I chanced upon becoming an immortal during the upheaval of the heavens and earth.”

“At that moment, I believed I had reached the mountain beyond the mountain. However, the truth was… I was still within the mountain of my heart.” “Because during that time, while I possessed an astounding level of cultivation, I lacked the sensation of transcendence.”

“I am acutely aware that my life has reached its conclusion.

“Thus, while I still had some lifespan left, I chose to embark on a second life.” “I held the conviction that even without the forces of heaven and earth, I, Crane, could still ascend to becoming a lamp immortal once again, thanks to my inherent talents.”

“But now, it appears that perhaps this very arrogance was the reason I remained ensnared within the mountain of my heart for my entire existence.” “in my second life, I began with Foundation Establishment, progressed to Core Formation at the age of twenty, attained Nascent Soul cultivation at a century’s age, and reached Apotheosis at three hundred. I then underwent Void Refinement at a millennium’s mark, followed by Nascent Fusion at two millennia, and concluded with Tribulation Crossing at five millennia.” “Throughout this journey, I scarcely encountered a worthy adversary.’ “No matter the prodigious talents that crossed my path, none could be considered talented in my presence.”

“At the time, I was brimming with confidence, believing that I could traverse a path that nobody else could and ascend to the mountain beyond the mountain.’ “However, after five millennia passed, I came to realize my error.” “To become an immortal, cultivation alone is insufficient. The most critical aspect lies within one’s heart.”

“I, Crane, possessed the form of an immortal but lacked the heart of an immortal.”

“As such, my final years were spent searching for that elusive heart.”

“But even as the end drew near, I remained empty-handed.”

“I am well aware that without locating that ethereal heart, even if I were granted another ten lifetimes, I would still be incapable of becoming a true immortal. I would merely become a faux immortal possessing hollow power.” “Hence, during my twilight years, I decided to persist until I unearthed this answer and embarked on a new quest to find my own Dao.”

“Therefore, I encapsulated my divine soul within this immortal sword, all in anticipation of finding an answer..
