Chapter 174: The Battle of the Way of the Sword (First Update)
The King Continent is very large, far larger than the earth, and a single Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions under its rule are enough to be equivalent to the whole of Asia, so this world is much more complicated.
But in Li Bai's view, it is not so complicated, in fact, it is just to divide the original world into two distinct spaces, one is ordinary and the other is extraordinary.
Mortals are still like that, or facing the loess with their backs to the sky, or the merchant houses trafficking grain and straw in the world, or the princes of brocade clothes, and the ups and downs of the sea, which are interspersed with the rise and fall of dynasties and the power of the nobles......
And those transcendental, but in another world, if this world has to be named, it may be called the rivers and lakes often mentioned in martial arts.
There is a way to heaven in this world.
Compared with the mortals of the lower world, there is only one line behind, and those who have talent can easily cross this line and come to another world, but if they don't have talent, this line is like a chasm, and they still can't cross it after a lifetime.
Li Bai's experience of this point is particularly profound.
In the tenth reincarnation, he put in a lot of effort to cross this line.
But the only life that can really be called extraordinary is the last life...... In the end, he hugged the beauty.
In fact, he didn't know who Wang Zhaojun was, but he knew better that it was just a dream.
In reality, Wang Zhaojun is still frozen in the far north, and Mulan is still fighting on the Great Wall, and he has not taught his husband and children.
Li Bai actually doesn't have too much obsession with becoming an immortal and a god, the road is too far, the end point is too high, no one knows what kind of scenery it will be at that time, he wants to go up and have a look.
He has never had the heart to harm others in order to become an immortal and a god.
But people do not hurt the tiger, and the tiger harms people's hearts.
The avenue competes, and the narrow road meets.
Some people have found another way, overcoming obstacles and walking out of a new avenue.
Some people follow the steps and try their best to take a broad road, and all their companions are companions.
Some people follow behind others, eager to step on the backbone of their predecessors as a stepping stone to climb the top, and they are eager to step on the corpses of their predecessors to add food for themselves, like konjac flowers rooted in the corpse.
For many cultivators, whether it is a martial path, a demon path, or a trap path, reaching the top is an unimaginable desire, and they can make any effort to climb higher.
Murder and arson of gold belts, repair bridges and repair roads without corpses.
Whether it is the reincarnation technique that the Yin and Yang family regards as a treasure or the technique of deceiving the sky in the mouth of the old grandfather of this ring, the method of seizing the foundation, it is the same.
Heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death.
Ordinary people say that God has no eyes, and this is what comes from.
God is not eyeless, but he has never seen these ordinary people, and even if it really has a true spirit, it will not measure the world by human values of good and evil.
So that the wicked will not have evil retribution, and the good may not be rewarded, and so on.
Zhuge Liang, who had just rushed back, stood in the crowd and did not disturb Li Bai's cultivation, but talked to Zhou Yu and said, "Tomorrow's battle will be very sinister. ”
Zhou Yu frowned: "The battle of the sword, regardless of life and death, only the winner is decided, how sinister is it?"
Zhuge Liang sneered: "A swordsman of their level, in order to decide the winner, it is the easiest thing to not care about life and death, and when the time comes, no one can be allowed to keep their hands." ”
Zhou Yu sighed: "I'll wait out to watch the battle tomorrow, if it really comes to that point, we will save Taibai together." ”
Zhuge shook his head and sighed: "Let's ask the instructors of Donglai Peak to take action, although you and I have made some progress in demon cultivation, it seems that now not only did we not get closer to Taibai, but we were left farther and farther away." ”
......
Night falls, and the stars shine.
Li Bai stood in the sword mound formed by hundreds of ice swords, stretched out his hand and stroked one of them, his eyes seemed to see a diligent teenager constantly wielding immature swordsmanship.
After a moment he put the sword back and took another one.
Overnight, read a hundred swords.
In the early morning of the next day, when Chaolu wet his clothes, Li Bai's slightly closed eyes opened, and he stared at the arrogant figure that was gradually revealed in the mountain road in the distance.
Ye Fan said: "Got up so early?"
Li Bai shook his head and said, "It's not that I got up early, it's that I didn't sleep at all." ”
Ye Fan was silent for a moment and asked, "Raise a sword?"
Li Bai smiled: "No, it's sharpening the sword." ”
Ye Fan sat opposite Li Bai: "It's still early, you can talk." ”
Li Bai took out the wine gourd, shook it for a while, and drank the amber wine in it: "Do you want some?"
Ye Fan shook his head: "Although it smells very tempting, Ye once swore that he would not drink alcohol because he had not achieved kendo...... But you drank alcohol before the war, aren't you afraid of affecting your performance?"
Li Bai shook his head, drank it all in a neat sip, and took a sip of wine before saying, "Don't be afraid, my amount of wine is great, this amount is nothing at all." ”
[Phew, Li Bai's alcohol is a mess. 】
[What is the explanation?]
[Su Lie's lines are proof: My alcohol consumption is terrible, and my friend who loves poetry is not much better!]
"I heard that your sword reincarnation has five hundred years?" Ye Fan said with some hesitation.
Li Bai nodded: "Ten lifetimes, if it weren't for the fact that a few people died early, it might be longer." ”
Ye Fan was silent for a moment: "You are a good swordsman, and the four seasons are also a very good weapon, but I hope it is not the basis for you to fight with me, otherwise the one who competes with me today will not be a swordsman." ”
Li Bai nodded and said, "Understood." ”
Ye Fan means that the four seasons are not swords but weapons, and it is actually the most appropriate to describe it with a sword-shaped staff.
Unless one day the Four Seasons Sword gives birth to a sword spirit and becomes a real sword, it will be difficult for Li Bai to avoid this defect.
A lot of students gradually gathered around, and the new students in the school building also walked out or pulled by the window, and this battle has long been the attention of everyone.
The three of Zhuge walked out together, stood behind Li Bai, and stopped silently.
"It's almost time, can you start?" Ye Fan got up, the ice swords in the sword mound swayed and trembled, like a sheep meeting a lion and tiger beast, Li Bai stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the moment he stood up, the ice sword instantly fell silent.
"Yes. Li Bai said.
The faces of the students who came early to watch the battle changed drastically, as if they were looking directly at the scorching sun, and they felt that their eyes were stabbed.
At this moment, Li Bai's edge was revealed, and it was an unsheathed blade.
Ye Fan tilted his head slightly, a strand of long hair broke off, and on the majestic peak behind him, a sword mark that was more than a foot deep slowly appeared.
"Good sword. Ye Fan's face showed a hint of surprise, "Li Bai, dare to follow me to the west to the top of the peak and have a good fight?"
Li Bai smiled and said, "Why not." ”
With that, the two figures rose into the sky in an instant, turned into two sword lights, and staggered in mid-air, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.
