Chapter 170 To Believe Firmly, Even Until Now (1/2)

In the end, Shen Lian did not cause her death but did not lend her the merit instrument either. If there was still some sort of connection, it would be Chao Xiaoyu not being able to reconcile.

Shen Lian felt that he had nothing to do with Chao Xiaoyu, the karma has been broken off.

His temper, of course, was not one to kill your entire family in a disagreement. Even with the grandmaster Qingtuan’s sword having the peerless fierce and formidable killing intention, it still could not influence Shen Lian’s mind.

Shen Lian felt that it was already not easy for a person to come to this world, why is there a need to belittle someone else’s life?

There were many eyes that peeked at Shen Lian from the shadows. Now, he was refreshed and noticed it clearly with a smile on his face as he allowed those people to mouse about him.

Any divine thoughts that reached within three feet of him would feel like it had trespassed into the clouds of smoke of the heavens where it could hardly detect anything. Of course, if the prying came from an immortal, that would all just be crazy talk.

The nine states of cultivation are still fundamentally a part of cultivation even when it reached the school of the celestials and Buddhism. Even though it still could be considered as a cultivator, but the nature of life had changes happening already.

Even when Shen Lian did not experience this differences, he still knew that it was on a whole other plainfield.

Furthermore, to surpass a state for the sake of winning did not have any meaning to him. He cultivated because he wanted a long life, not to destroy the world.

To have strength is to protect oneself and not destroy others.

Shen Lian, with his hands clasped behind his back, flew to the place that he was staying now, which was also the location where the refugees were being housed. Just now while he fought Chao Xiaoyu, the heaven and earth shook but it did not use too much time. Song Qingyi and Qi Xiu could feel that something unnatural was happening at Banyue lake and they did not go over. This was because the surge of the Qi of vitality was too extreme, they were unsuited to go or else they would have caused trouble.

Song Qingyi saw Shen Lian flew in and was a little stunned, he did not think that Shen Lian was not here.

Only just a night of not seeing him, it was as though Shen Lian was a changed person. Even though there were no changes to his looks, but just by simply standing, he had a dominating air and hidden moral character that resembled the graceful bearing of the great masters.

Before that, Shen Lian was like a sharp sword that did not show its sharpness, the formidable ones were able to tell that he was also formidable but they could not tell just how formidable and scary he was.

But the Shen Lian now was like an unsheathed sword for people to admire, there was no piercing sharpness but anyone would know that this sword was able to slice through steel like mud.

This feeling was like the wise teachers that educated the masses, they stood out in the crowd but they were not loud, which only makes one to spontaneously have a respect for them.

He walked over and asked, ”My Dao friend, Shen Lian, you already completed huandan?”

Shen Lian smiled as he replied, ”I have already gotten the dan path, but have not huandan.”

He borrowed the sharpness of grandmaster Qingyuan’s sword will, gotten the immortality of it and he was able to receive and dispatch freely, honing away the fierce formidableness of it. He was already someone who had entered Dao but not yet completed it.

Huandan was to be the Yin Spirit Floating Clouds. Both the form and mind become one while it mingled with the universe, priming waves of Qi of vitality. With the rage of the storms and the tempering from the forces of the heaven and earth, one begins to transform oneself. From the beginning of this step, one could truly go against odds to become a celestial.

This was also why the huandan zhenren has a title, which is called ludizhenxian. The ludi zhenxian is not dixian. Dixian is the official term for the immortals by Xuanmen.

Ludi zhenxian was just proof that a huandan cultivator had the characteristics of a divine celestial. The biggest advantage was the 800 years extension to one’s lifespan.
