Immortality in the Great Qian Dynasty

He watched Li Ying below with his mind.

He watched Li Ying weaken from weak to weak, her breath from rapid to weak.

Li Ying originally had a glimmer of hope, thinking that Fakong had great magical powers, and if she was really in danger, Fakong would definitely know and save her in time.

But as time passed, she became weaker and weaker, her eyes went dark, and she still didn't see Fakong.

She gradually became desperate.

Was it that Fakong's magical powers didn't sense that she was in danger, or that Fakong knew but didn't want to save her?

Fakong's mind was unpredictable.

At the beginning, the two of them got along with each other based on interests first, exchanging what they needed, he needed credit, and Fakong needed treasures.

As the number of interactions increased, the two became more and more familiar with each other, and they had a friendship with each other and went through hardships together.

At this time, the friendship was different.

It had become a friend.

But Fakong always gave me an unpredictable feeling.

It seemed that he would do unpredictable things at any time, unexpectedly.

Suddenly, he didn't save her life because of the snowy mountain. He might not be able to do such a heartless thing.

The more she thought about it, the more desperate she became. She sighed.

Is this how her life will end?

With the Heavenly Demon Scripture and the Heavenly Demon Secret Scripture, as well as the top swordsmanship, she is destined to be the Demon Lord, destined to unify the six paths of the Demon Sect and restore the former glory of the Demon Sect.

But she died in Dayun Territory, in such a quiet and desolate place, and no one even knew about it.

When my father sensed my death, he might not find my body when he rushed over.

The body might have been eaten by wild wolves or other beasts.

It is really miserable to die without a place to bury the body.

She then laughed at herself again.

There are probably many geniuses like me in the world who are full of ambition but died halfway. I am just one of them.

I am afraid that only my father and Aunt Tang will be hurt because of my death. Fakong will not be sad, but will just smile.

What did I leave behind when I came to this world?

What was the purpose of my coming to this world?

How do I want to live, what do I want, and what do I want to do in order to make my life worthwhile?

She asked herself repeatedly in her heart.

She asked again and again, until her eyes went dark, but she still did not give up these questions. She kept thinking and searching for the ultimate meaning of her life.

She found that her eyes were slightly bright, as if there was a purple-gold light.

She tried to open her eyes wide and vaguely saw the figure of Fakong.

Although it was blurry and difficult to see things clearly now, she could tell that it was Fakong by seeing this purple-gold shadow and this figure.

She smiled.

But Fakong looked at her quietly without moving, just letting her breathing continue to be weak and weak.

She was confused and then desperate, and found that Fakong was here to see her die, and had no intention of saving her.

She was immediately angry, and at the same time she wanted to laugh desperately. Her heart was full of disappointment in friendship, hatred for Fakong, and relief from seeing through everything.

She couldn't help but question herself again.

What was she pursuing in her life?

Was it the glory of the Six Paths of the Demon Sect, or her father's long-cherished wish, or being invincible in the world, or her own liberation, without worries or fears?

She left Fakong behind and searched in her heart.

The past scenes appeared in front of her eyes, as if time had reversed, and she quickly recalled her life experiences from beginning to end.

Finally, the eternal silence and darkness finally came. She smiled and suddenly felt relieved, letting everything in this world return to dust and return to dust, how it came, how it will go.

Darkness and silence came, she was completely swallowed up, darkness in front of her eyes, and then she knew nothing.

Fakong looked at Li Ying quietly.

Li Ying, wearing a black shirt, leaned against an old pine tree with twisted roots.

There was no trace of blood on her snow-white face, and her red lips had become slightly blue, as if she had applied powder.

Her eyes, which had always been shining like stars, were dazed, and her face had a strange expression, like laughing, crying, and mocking.

Fakong knew she had seen him.

She wanted to speak but couldn't. She was too weak to make any movements, and it was hard to make a complex expression.

Fakong watched her breathing gradually stop until she died completely.

...

Li Ying slowly opened her eyes.

She looked around first and found that she was still under the pine tree, with a strong scent of pine resin on her body.

She looked down at her body.

The black shirt was still there, and the wound on her lower abdomen was still there.

It was just that the wound no longer had the feeling of power leaking out, as if the channel for leakage had been sealed, and it was just a dull pain.

The feeling of weakness in the body completely disappeared, and she was full of energy instead, as if her body contained infinite power.

As soon as she exercised her power, her qi surged.

As soon as she exercised her power, her five senses suddenly became sharp again. She felt someone in the woods and found that Fakong was holding a bunch of branches and coming out.

"Awake?" Fakong put down the dead branches, gathered some dead leaves, lit a fire, blew twice, and the fire quickly expanded into a bonfire.

She realized that it was dark and dusk was rising.

"You..." As soon as she spoke, she found that her voice was dry, and she coughed twice and continued: "How could you...?"

"Curious about why I saved you?"

"You were going to watch me die, but then suddenly changed your mind and felt compassion?" Li Ying smiled: "Finally saved me?"

Fakong smiled and said, "Do you always think that I will suddenly have evil thoughts and kill you?"

"Isn't it?" Li Ying said.

Fakong shook his head and laughed, "It's really chilling."

Li Ying chuckled and shook her head and said, "You came here and watched me die. Isn't it chilling for me?"

Fakong said, "It's not that easy for you to die."

Li Ying was in high spirits. The feeling of coming back from the dead was too wonderful.

The world suddenly became particularly beautiful. Everything was wonderful. The sound was pleasant, the air was fresh, and even the pungent smell of pine resin was so beautiful now.

Fakong said, "Try now to see if you can enter the realm of Grandmaster."

"Grandmaster?"

"To see the nature of the mind, after dying once, with your understanding, you should have almost realized it, right?"

Li Ying frowned, "Did you deliberately make me despair and lose hope and die once?"

"You are not stupid at least." Fakong sat down by the campfire and put two sweet potatoes on the stone next to the fire.

Li Ying was thoughtful.

As her mind moved slightly, the aura around her changed dramatically. The vast aura spread from her body, becoming stronger and stronger.

The bonfire was blown to the ground by the strong wind.

Li Ying suddenly let out a long whistle.

The whistle soared into the sky, resounding through the clouds, and startled the tired birds returning to the forest and made them fly away.

"Grandmaster..." Li Ying's black shirt billowed, her black hair fluttered in the wind, and her aura was as surging as a huge wave.

Fakong smiled at her: "Congratulations."

Li Ying's black shirt slowly flattened, her black hair returned to her shoulders, and her bright eyes stared at Fakong.

Fakong said, "You don't need to thank me. In the future, if you show mercy to the disciples of the three major sects, you will not let me down for today's contribution."

"Fakong, you have always been worried that I will become powerful and unify the six paths of the Demon Sect, thus threatening your three major sects, right?"

"I do have this worry."

"If that's the case, why did you save me?... In fact, you are struggling and hesitating in your heart. You want to kill the danger in advance, but you can't bear to kill me, right?"

"It's not that entangled," Fakong said with a smile, "It's your own illusion. You always think that I want to kill you, and you judge my heart by your heart."

Li Ying smiled and snorted.

Obviously she didn't believe it.

Fakong said: "I think that the world will eventually unite after a long period of division, and the six paths of your Demon Sect will eventually be unified. It is better for you to be the Demon Lord than for others to be the Demon Lord."

"If we are enemies, I will not show mercy, because I know that you are too threatening to our Demon Sect."

"I know that you are clear about gratitude and resentment, and you will still have to show mercy." Fakong smiled and said: "You can't kill me until you repay all my favors."

Li Ying smiled and shook her head.

Fakong has understood her temper thoroughly.

Think about it, it is indeed more beneficial to let someone who knows you well be the Demon Lord than someone who doesn't know you.

Especially for their Vajra Temple.

Fakong smiled and said: "Think about it, I have saved you so many times and helped you become a grandmaster. You owe me too much, but you can't repay it... By the way, which master seriously injured you?"

Based on Li Ying's understanding, this trip to Dayun is enough to enter the Grandmaster.

I just went with the flow, advanced the time a little bit, and left a huge favor, enough to influence the future.

"...Don't mention it." Li Ying was too embarrassed to mention it.

Fakong smiled.

Li Ying said: "I originally thought I should go back, or stay out of the limelight, but now it's different."

"On the contrary, you should go back now." Fakong said: "You are already a grandmaster, and a grandmaster must abide by the rules of a grandmaster."

Li Ying's thin eyebrows that were slender and long into her temples frowned suddenly, and she looked unhappy.

She hadn't been able to vent her anger yet, and she had to turn around and go back, which would be too depressing.

"You still have to abide by the rules of the grandmaster." Fakong said: "If you are not a grandmaster, it doesn't matter."

"If you violate the rules of the grandmaster, all the grandmasters will attack you. If they dare to come, I'll try." Li Ying snorted.

When she was not a grandmaster, killing a grandmaster was like killing a chicken. Now that she has become a grandmaster, she no longer takes the grandmaster into her eyes.

Fakong said, "Come on, try the swordsmanship I recently learned."

He saw that Li Ying was a little too arrogant, and needed to put a stop to her prestige.

A ray of light flew out of his sleeves and stabbed at her lightly.

Li Ying circled the pine tree and rushed towards Fakong from the other side of the pine tree. The long sword turned into a flash of lightning and shot at Fakong.

Fakong stabbed lightly.

"Swish!" Li Ying retreated in the air and landed in front of the old pine tree.

She looked at Fakong hesitantly, then looked down at her left shoulder, where a hole had appeared.

The tip of the sword had pierced through. If Fakong had not shown mercy, this sword would have pierced through.

Fakong smiled, "How about this sword?"

"This is..."

Fakong smiled, "This is the swordsmanship I got by chance... After you became a grandmaster, your swordsmanship has not improved much."

"It takes some time to polish it." Li Ying frowned and said, "This sword... is very strange!"

She felt it was too weird and strange. If it happens again, there is still no way to avoid it.

Fakong said: "There are many sword masters in this world, such as Dugu Xiaqing in Yunjing, whose sword skills are comparable to mine."

"I have heard of Dugu Xiaqing." Li Ying said: "Dugu's sword dance is unparalleled in the world."

She originally planned to see Dugu Xiaqing's swordsmanship.
