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

"Seven Swords?"

Zhou Yiqiao called out gently with the power of his soul, hoping to awaken the Seven Swords in this way.

However, Seven Swords showed no reaction from beginning to end.

"In the end, you still have to rely on yourself."

Zhou Yiqiao let out a long sigh and looked at the Seven Swords with a solemn expression. He simply had to sit in the open space next to the boulder to protect him.

Time flew by and it was already three days later.

Just when Zhou Yiqiao saw that there was still no abnormality on Qijian's body and was about to leave first, Qijian's body suddenly emitted bursts of strange light, followed by a slight clicking sound.

Zhou Yiqiao, who had just repaired his dantian, was very familiar with this sound. It was the sound of his dantian breaking.

Zhou Yiqiao suddenly looked up, only to see the light on Qijian's body suddenly surge, and then, his entire body slowly cracked open.

Under the cracks, there is a bright red light, as if Seven Swords' body has been filled with fuel, and it will explode anytime and anywhere!

"Damn it, how could it become like this!?"

Zhou Yiqiao looked solemn and ignored the conflict between himself and He Yunxi. He quickly walked to a wooden house next to Wucai Pond and begged the people inside.

"Junior sister He, Qijian changed after taking a drop of your Yinglong essence and blood. Do you know the reason?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustling sound in the wooden house, and a moment later He Yunxi, who looked cold, walked out of the wooden house.

She crossed Zhou Yiqiao's figure and looked at Qijian who was suffering in the distance, and her eyes suddenly became clear.

"Master once told me that after taking Yinglong's essence and blood, there will be two kinds of visions."

"The first type is the conventional disaster of heaven and earth. This kind of vision is similar to the vision of monks advancing, either thunder clouds or karmic fire. In short, they are all tempered from the outside to the inside."

"As for the second type, it is an extremely strange trial. This trial is completely opposite to the former. It is the monk's spiritual consciousness that changes first, from the inside out, spontaneously."

"Compared to the former, the second kind of vision is rarer, and is naturally more powerful for the monk's improvement."

Perhaps He Yunxi still remembered the friendship between himself and Seven Swords, and a smile rarely appeared on his cold face.

"Congratulations to Qijian. This phenomenon should be because the power of Qijian's bloodline has been sublimated by Yinglong's essence and blood."

"As long as Seven Swords can survive this trial, it can be promoted to a monster with a nobler bloodline."

Hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao frowned slightly.

"Is this trial dangerous?"

Yinglong is an ancient divine beast of the demon clan. Even if it only retains a drop of essence and blood, the power of Huizong when exposed to the air was too much for Zhou Yiqiao and Shen Kuo to withstand, but now the Seven Swords have to withstand a trial far greater than this!

"Of course it's dangerous."

Hearing Zhou Yiqiao's question, He Yunxi seemed to remember something, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

"According to the records of our Qingyang Sect, in the entire Secret Realm of All Things, from ancient times to the present, there are only a handful of individuals who can withstand the test of Yinglong's essence and blood from the inside out."

"How could this be?"

After hearing He Yunxi's conclusion, Zhou Yiqiao's face instantly became extremely ugly.

To him, Seven Swords was not only a loyal subordinate, but more importantly, a close friend whom he had known for many years.

Now, seeing my best friend undergoing an unpredictable trial of life and death, I am naturally anxious and worried.

"You don't have to worry too much."

Noticing the change in Zhou Yiqiao's expression, He Yunxi spoke slowly, not knowing whether it was for comfort or to lighten the atmosphere.

"After all, there is a trace of human-dragon blood in Qijian's body, and its tolerance to Yinglong's essence and blood is much higher than that of users without dragon blood."

"In addition, Seven Swords has been cultivating step by step over the years and has a solid foundation. Although Yinglong's essence and blood are overbearing, he may not be able to withstand it with his own perseverance."

At the end, He Yunxi's tone contained a hint of hope.

"Don't worry, the blessings of Seven Swords are profound and you will definitely be able to survive this trial."

He Yunxi's solemn promise made Zhou Yiqiao relax a little, sighed, and murmured in a low voice that only he could hear.

"hope so."

......

As the two talked, the strange phenomena on Qijian became more and more intense.

His body was like the cracked earth exposing magma, broken and hot.

With Seven Swords as the center, all the surrounding flowers, plants and trees were burned to death. The ancient tree in the sky, which was full of spiritual energy, became extremely wilted due to the high temperature.

A strong wind blew through, blowing smoke and dust all over the sky. The valley that was originally filled with birds and flowers was now rendered into an apocalyptic scene.

"Junior brother, junior brother, are you going to demolish senior sister's valley?"

Mu Huairou's figure appeared in front of Zhou Yiqiao and the others.

As she finished speaking, a vitality of spiritual power spread out, instantly controlling the smoke and dust in the sky.

"Your subordinate's current situation is not optimistic."

"The vitality is too strong and goes against the natural cycle. If you cannot suppress the power in your body, you may be burned alive."

Mu Huairou also looked at the culprit who had ruined her valley like this, with a trace of solemnity in her eyes.

After she finished speaking, the spiritual power full of vitality emerged from her hands again, slowly floating to the side of Qijian and wrapping it up.

As this spiritual power took effect, the changes in Qijian gradually eased.

However, this situation did not last long. Within a moment of burning incense, Seven Swords' skin cracked again, dripping with blood. The fine cracks were even thicker than before, covering his whole body.

"No, Senior Sister, I can only help you so far. His body is too chaotic right now, and forced healing may cause him to completely collapse."

Although Zhou Yiqiao's mood became heavier due to what Mu Huairou said, he still forced a smile.

"Thank you, Senior Sister, for your help. Today is destined to be the fate of the Seven Swords. Whether it is a blessing or a disaster, it is still the destiny of the Seven Swords."

"Master once taught us not to force anything. Since this is the destiny of the Seven Swords, let's just go with it!"

"Oh, that's fine."

Mu Huairou shook her head, retracted her hand, stood beside Zhou Yiqiao and looked at the ever-changing Seven Swords.

As time passed, the cracks on Qijian's body overlapped each other, completely exposing the burning flesh and blood under his skin.

At this moment, Seven Swords' original appearance was completely unrecognizable, leaving only hideous scars all over his body.

Qijian's breathing had begun to weaken, but he still did not stop.

Finally, at an unknown moment, a golden light suddenly flashed and enveloped the Seven Swords.

That dazzling golden light was like the dawn, giving people hope, but it also made people feel burning pain.
