The Sword Master God's Journey to Face Slapping

After fifty years of training outside, although his cultivation had not yet advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, Xuan Yuan had already met one of the two conditions for returning to the Sword Sect, so he could return to the Sword Sect. So he waved his sleeves, said goodbye to his friends who were training outside, and returned to the Sword Sect without a single cloud.

Not being able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in fifty years is not something that makes people surprised or laughable. On the contrary, it is the most normal thing. The path of cultivation is originally more difficult as time goes by. In the Golden Core stage, it is much more difficult for cultivators to cultivate than in the Qi Refining stage and the Foundation Establishment stage. Every advancement in cultivation requires a lot of time accumulation and certain opportunities.

If you want to successfully cultivate from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage in fifty years, and if you want to complete the Nascent Soul, unless you have continuous opportunities, natural materials and various treasures to help you, or you take pills all day to cultivate your spiritual power and break through the barriers, otherwise, if you practice step by step, a short fifty years is nothing at all. This period of time is just a small part of the cultivation life for the cultivator.

When you first embark on the path of cultivation, the life span of a cultivator is no different from that of an ordinary mortal. If you are free from illness, disaster, pain, and trouble, and you are well cared for, you may not be able to live to a hundred years, but it is only a hundred years. After a hundred years, no matter what position you are in during your lifetime, what kind of wealth and glory you enjoy, and what kind of mountains and rivers you own, you will only turn into a handful of yellow earth after death.

However, after embarking on the path of cultivation, the life span is not only a hundred years, and it is not certain that you will die after a hundred years. As the strength of the cultivators increases, their life span will also increase. The benefit of longevity is the fundamental reason why many cultivators embark on the path of cultivation. After all, who would want to die if they can live?

It has been mentioned before that the foundation-building stage is the starting point of the real difference between immortals and mortals. Only when the cultivators successfully build the foundation can they be considered to have escaped the shackles of the mortal body and truly get rid of the identity of mortals to become immortal cultivators, and have a long life.

Therefore, when the cultivators are in the Qi Refining stage, their life span will not increase. They will still only have a hundred years, unless they take longevity pills. Otherwise, even if they are cultivators who have completed the Qi Refining stage, once a hundred years have passed and their life span is exhausted, they will also sit in an instant and become a corpse, turning into a skeleton under the erosion of time.

But it is different when you cultivate to the foundation-building stage. The life span of the cultivators in the foundation-building stage will increase from a hundred years to two hundred years. Even if the cultivators do not take longevity pills, they can live for two hundred years, which is twice as long as ordinary mortals. After the cultivators form the golden elixir and cultivate to the golden elixir stage, their life span will increase again, this time it will directly increase to 500 years.

After the golden elixir stage, the life span of the Yuanying stage cultivators is 800 years, and the life span of the Huashen stage cultivators is 1,200 years. The life span of the later Dujie stage and Mahayana stage is even longer, with a life span of thousands of years or nearly ten thousand years. The life span is extremely long, and it really becomes the immortal immortal in the legend.

As the strength of the cultivators increases, their life span will continue to increase. Although it cannot be regarded as longevity with the same life span as the sky, the long years and the strength maintained before sitting still make many people flock to the road of cultivation. The pursuit of cultivation is the reason why the cultivation civilization of this world is brilliant and dazzling.

It sounds like everything is so perfect after becoming a cultivator, and extending life is a very good thing. After all, fear of death is the nature of most people, and wanting to live for a long time is a desire that many people have. But it must be said that after becoming a monk, you may not really have to worry about death like ordinary people.

On the contrary, compared to ordinary mortals, monks can better experience what it is like to have death approaching behind them, and they are also more threatened by death. From this point of view, becoming a monk may not necessarily be a good thing, to be precise, it may not only be a good thing.

Ordinary mortals do not know how long their lifespan is, and they do not have a clear understanding of when they will die. Although the inability to control their own lives gives them a greater sense of fear, compared to everything that monks have experienced, ordinary mortals are actually lucky.

At least they do not know as clearly as monks how long their lifespan is and when they will die. As for their lifespan, there is no need for others to remind them. The monks themselves can clearly say it. As long as there is no accident, when their lifespan will come to an end, every monk can accurately know the year, month, day, and even which subject.

It is really not a good thing to be very clear about the time when you will fall. Monks know when they will die, and if they don't want to die or sit in meditation when their lifespan is almost over, they must break through their cultivation before their lifespan runs out and cultivate to a higher level. Only by improving their cultivation can the monk's lifespan increase.

In this way, monks are actually quite pitiful people. From the moment they embarked on the path of cultivation, they clearly knew how long their lifespan was and the day of their demise. This means that they saw the end and death from the beginning, and they lived under the shadow of death all their lives.

In order to escape the shadow of death, monks can only seize the time to practice and work hard, as if racing against death and time, and try to escape before death approaches. However, even if the cultivation is advanced to a higher level, it only means that the lifespan has been extended for a period of time, and there is still an end of death.

The longer you live, the less you want to die. Many cultivators in the cultivation world collapse under such pressure because they are afraid of death and death. They forget their persistence and are willing to become demon cultivators. They use all kinds of inferior and even cruel and violent means to advance their cultivation, just to survive.

The closer the cultivator is to the end of his life span, the more likely he is to go crazy. This sense of urgency of standing on the edge of death and falling at any time also has a special effect on the tempering of the cultivator's Tao heart. It is not easy to remain calm and rational in such a situation where death is possible at any time. If you can pass this pass and temper, the cultivator's character and will will definitely be greatly improved.

Unfortunately, Xuanyuan has never experienced such a sense of urgency and has never worried about his approaching life span. Even when he left the Sword Sect in the Jindan stage and practiced outside for fifty years, he still failed to advance to the Yuanying stage. It is not too common in the entire cultivation world to want to practice from the Jindan stage to the Yuanying stage in fifty years.

Fifty years was a very long time for Xuan Yuan at that time. Although these fifty years were as short as the morning dew for successful cultivators in the cultivation world, such as Yun Jun Zhenren, and it might pass in a blink of an eye, this period of time was very important and long for Xuan Yuan.

Xuan Yuan wandered in the secular world for only more than ten years. After joining the Sword Sect, it took only about twenty years for him to cultivate from an ordinary mortal who had just entered the cultivation world to the Golden Core Stage. After leaving the Sword Sect, the fifty years of training outside were the longest and most memorable fifty years for Xuan Yuan.

It can be said that Xuan Yuan's style of doing things, his persistence in the Tao, and the strengthening of his will and perseverance were all cultivated and excavated in these fifty years. In the fifty years of training in the cultivation world, as a sword cultivator, Xuan Yuan can basically be said to have come out of blood and fire and survived from battles again and again.

Xuanyuan has been to the Ten Thousand Bone Cave in the miasma forest in the south, to the bloody killing field full of killing, to the mountains full of powerful monsters, and to the caves left by ancient cultivators. He was even more fortunate to encounter the opening of some secret realms and experience them. Xuanyuan's life in the past fifty years is completely composed of adventure and adventure.

The world of cultivation is very large, and fifty years is not that long. At least this time is not enough for Xuanyuan to travel around the entire world of cultivation. Not to mention traveling around the vast and boundless world of cultivation, in the past fifty years, Xuanyuan has not even left the continent where the Sword Sect is located, let alone going out to sea to see the magnificence and wonder of the sea world of cultivation.

But even if the scope of his fifty years of experience was limited to one continent, everything Xuan Yuan experienced was full of ups and downs, fantastic and gorgeous. It was a long and wonderful story. Unfortunately, as time went by, only a few people remembered what happened in those fifty years.

And most of these people were still in the world of cultivation. Naturally, Xuan Yuan had no one to share that period of time with. What happened in those fifty years was gradually buried by the wind and sand, becoming a pale experience in the long river of time, and no longer known to people.

Fifty years of wind and frost, fifty years of blood and fire forged Xuan Yuan's more perseverant and resolute character, allowing him to truly mature and grow into a qualified cultivator, and also laid the most solid foundation for his single-minded pursuit of the Tao. With his enthusiasm for the Tao, he went further and further on the road of cultivation, and finally reached a height that no one dared to imagine.
