Slowly walking among the piles of corpses that looked like purgatory, Wei Changtian sometimes stopped and sometimes brandished his sword, with the faint golden glow of the Tathagata's shadow falling on his shoulders.
On top of the head is a golden Buddha that saves all sentient beings, and at the feet are countless bones.
This scene actually seems a bit ironic.
Buddhism believes that all living beings are in reincarnation for countless kalpas, and its ultimate goal is to transcend reincarnation and help all living beings to be liberated.
But it is obvious that "death" is not liberation.
Therefore, I don’t know if there really is a Buddha, how would it react when it sees this scene.
Is it a sentiment that the sins of the world are heavy and that there is a long way to go to save all sentient beings?
Or shake your head and sigh that all living beings are hard to save?
Wei Changtian didn't know the above, and he wouldn't think about it at all.
He just walked silently in this purgatory, and every step was extremely heavy.
Although I had seen more than 100,000 people die in the thunder and fire in Niutoushan, this was the first time I had come into contact with so many corpses at such a close distance.
At first, Wei Changtian would give a treat to the seriously injured soldiers from time to time, or give a pill to those whose injuries were not particularly serious.
But now, as he walked further and further away, his vision gradually became numb.
"..."
Without saying a word, he walked from south to east, and then from east to north.
I don’t know how much time passed, and I don’t know how many corpses I saw.
Wei Changtian just walked silently, and the sea of qi in his dantian was also expanding little by little.
Yes.
Tonight, he was going to use this vast body of corpses to break through to the second level.
...
Ever since he absorbed the spirit of the snake demon in Yellow Maple Valley, Wei Changtian has reached the peak of the third level and is only one step away from the second level.
Unlike the fourth-grade breakthrough to the third-grade, which requires an "inner experience", the third-grade breakthrough to the second-grade is normally just a process of accumulation of internal strength.
As long as you can accumulate a large amount of cultivation, you can reach the second level.
This process takes about twenty to thirty years for the average person.
Of course, the "ordinary people" here are not really ordinary people, but those top-level talented warriors who have at least 60 meridians connected to the 64 meridians.
Opening the sixty meridians is the most basic condition for breaking through to the second level.
However, the reality is that it is difficult to enter the second-level realm in your lifetime if you only have access to the sixty meridians.
After all, it takes a lot of time to practice from the ninth level to the third level, and there is also a very difficult threshold of "fourth to third" in the middle. After just one pass, it will be almost seventy years old.
Therefore, almost all second-level warriors have the same talent as Wei Changtian with full access to the sixty-four meridians.
And it takes almost ten years for these people to "go from third to second".
More than ten years is undoubtedly a very small time span in those fantasy novels that often go into seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years.
But in this world where human lifespan is only a hundred years at most, it is not that short.
At the very least, even the middle-aged Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen have not broken through the second level and are still at the peak of the third level.
And when they really reach the second level, they will probably be in their fifties or sixties.
Of course, the above can only be regarded as "normal speed".
Like Xiao Feng, the thirteen Sons of Heaven, and even the Kuilong people who control a large amount of resources, these people's cultivation speed must be faster.
Exactly how much faster they can be depends on their chance, but if they are designated to be faster than ordinary warriors, it will only be a little bit faster.
And Wei Changtian is obviously also in this category.
And it's the most exaggerated one...
It has only been two years since I traveled back in time, but I have already risen from the seventh level to the current peak of the third level.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will break through to the second level tonight.
In two years, others may have just crossed a small realm, but Wei Changtian has crossed five major realms in a row.
This kind of thing can't even be called "unbelievable". I'm afraid most people don't even dare to think about it in their dreams.
But it actually happened.
Demon-catching, soul-eating, true dragon forehead scales...these magical powers, props, as well as the dead demons and people, all played a vital role in this process.
Especially the true dragon forehead scale.
Although at first glance it seemed that Wei Changtian was wasting his resources by using it to break through to the third level, it actually helped Wei Changtian "skip" the "heart" that could block 90% of warriors in one fell swoop.
In other words, if Wei Changtian had not been willing to use his forehead scale back then, he would probably still only be at the fourth level now.
Fourth grade, now that I think about it, it is indeed not enough.
Even if there are props and magical powers such as "Dream Path", "Ten Thousand Blades", and "Star Scabbard" that can greatly improve combat power, there are even big plug-ins like the system.
But after experiencing so many things, Wei Changcai discovered that realm is still the most critical thing.
For example, now, as long as he breaks through to the second level, his overall combat power will be greatly improved. Basically, he will have no opponents except Qin Zhengqiu.
Even facing an ordinary second-grade warrior, he can kill them in a very short time.
And when the strength reaches this level...many problems will no longer be problems.
Uh, all fear comes from lack of firepower?
Suddenly, Wei Changtian inexplicably thought of this sentence from his previous life.
Although it is a joke, it makes sense if you think about it carefully...
Curling his lips, Wei Changtian did not continue to think wildly, but cleared a small area of air, and then sat cross-legged among the corpses.
It wasn't that he was tired from walking, but that at that moment, the sea of qi in his dantian finally reached the limit where it could no longer expand.
Then the next step is...
Um?!
...
...
Outside Fengyuan City, among the piles of corpses, there was no wind and no sound, except for a man sitting alone with his eyes closed.
Everything around me has obviously not changed.
But in Wei Changtian's eyes, the moment he mobilized his inner energy to try to break through to the second level, all the scenes disappeared.
The phantom of the Tathagata above the head, the broken limbs and remains beside him, the moon that was robbed of its light by the Buddha's light in the night, the blurry army camp in the distance...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Whether it is clearly visible or vaguely invisible, everything is gone.
There was only a strange white light left in the whole world, which kept amplifying and then amplifying, quickly building a pure white illusion in the void.
Fantasy?
How is this going?
Although he was in an illusion, Wei Changtian's thinking still remained normal, so after a brief daze, he roughly came up with a guess.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the "heart" that should appear when breaking through to the third level.
Although the True Dragon Forehead Scale caused Wei Changtian to "skip" his heart, this thing did not disappear, but was postponed until he broke through to the second level.
Yes, it is true that sooner or later this will happen.
Wei Changtian shook his head helplessly. Wei Changtian's expression was not very nervous at this time.
Regarding the question of "heart", he had asked many people before, but all he got were ambiguous answers.
It was obvious that no one wanted to mention this matter again.
If combined with the scattered descriptions in "The Peak of Martial Arts", Wei Changtian has actually already made a rough guess about his "heart".
Heart, heart, a hurdle in the heart.
In everyone's life, there must be some past experiences that make them feel guilty, regretful, regretful, or unwilling.
Although some of these things feel like you have long forgotten them, they still affect you for a long time until you completely put them behind you.
And "crossing the heart" undoubtedly refers to this process.
"call......"
He moved his body and let out a heavy breath.
Looking at the two silhouettes slowly emerging in the white light, Wei Changtian knew that he was about to face the most difficult hurdle in his heart.
But to be honest, he is actually not sure what it is until now.
Xiao Feng?
That girl named Liu Yingying?
Youjia?
Li Wutong?
Or the people he killed?
Who knows...
Squinting his eyes, Wei Changtian stared at the two outlines that were turning from virtual to real, and countless possibilities flashed through his mind.
When he faced "Yam Luo" in Fengyuan, he had already had the experience of falling into the "illusion of inner demons", so he was already mentally prepared for everything.
But when the two silhouettes slowly transformed into a man and a woman, Wei Changtian's eyes widened in disbelief, and his body trembled violently.
He never expected that what appeared in front of him at this time was actually...
