Chapter Seventy-Seven: Sword Cultivation
"The predecessor is a sword cultivator?" Yan Lingyun asked.
The man nodded and said, "Zhongzhen, which can be interpreted literally, means guarding the middle. According to the ancient saying, the world is divided into three layers, the upper is the sky, the lower is the earth, and there must be a thing in the middle to support, and the heaven and the earth will not overturn. Sword cultivation is also taken from its imagery, people and swords are combined, guarding heaven and earth! ”
Yan Lingyun's heart shook, and the man only said a few words, but it opened a magical door for him.
I only heard him continue: "However, the primitive Dao of Zhongzhen is not only limited to sword cultivation, demons, beasts and other alien races will not be mentioned, as far as we human beings are concerned, thousands of weapons, all kinds of magic weapons, can be independent and self-contained, but for thousands of years, the highest achievements have been achieved by sword cultivation, so there is a generalization of sword cultivation; In addition, the magic weapon of law cultivation and martial arts tempering are all in line with the meaning of Zhongzhen; In addition, all living beings and all souls, standing between heaven and earth, with their heads above the sky and their feet on the ground, are themselves in line with the way of Zhongzhen. Therefore, although the Dao systems derived from the three primordial Dao meanings of Fa, Xiang, and Zhongzhen are different, they will show a trend of great unification when they go deeper: the middle of Fa Heaven and Earth! ”
"In the middle of the law, heaven and earth!" Yan Lingyun let out a low murmur and said in shock, "Is this the ultimate goal of cultivation?"
"It can't be said to be the goal, it can only be said to be the general trend, an invincible general trend!" The man sighed, "A person, no matter how high the realm is or how deep the Tao is, will never be able to walk along this general trend in his life." Therefore, in this general trend, no one can say that they are invincible, you must know that a mountain is still a mountain high, and a mountain is dangerous! ”
Yan Lingyun's heart was surging, he was leisurely fascinated, and sincerely asked: "Senior, since the Great Dao is divided into three points, how can my generation of monks achieve the middle of the Fa Heaven and Earth Town, do you want three fellow cultivators?"
"One person and three initiates, I haven't heard of it, it shouldn't be possible!" The man said, "Originally, when you reached the level of cultivation, you would know, but since you asked, it would be okay to talk to you now." The reason is that the heavenly gate and the empty door of the heavenly palace can only be opened in one direction, and the heavenly palace is self-destructive, the law and the image I am talking about can be the law of the law and the law of the law, or the law of the martial arts of the martial arts, the image of the elephant, you must know that there is an ontological thing, you can do the image, so whether it is martial arts or law cultivation, there is a law and an image, and then the way of the town is used to guard your body, It is the middle of the original Dharma Heaven and Earth Town. Standing in the middle of heaven and earth, man can only speak if he can control his own health and well-being. ”
Yan Lingyun nodded, found that he had missed a sword cultivation, and asked, "What about the sword?"
The man held the sword in one hand, stroked the sword body with the other, smiled, and said: "This is what I want to be independent of what you said, the so-called sword cultivation, the cultivation is the way of the sword, the level division and the law cultivation are similar, first of all, it is also to build the foundation, on the foundation, different from the law of the Xingshi, Xingshu, Xingjun, unified in the swordsman, above the swordsman, respectively, the sword master, the sword Tianzi, the sword elephant and the sword heart Tongming, respectively, corresponding to the law of the star master, Tianren, Tianyuan, the four realms of the mandate of heaven."
"Zhuji, Swordsman, Sword Master, Sword Prince, Sword Elephant, Sword Heart Tongming......" Yan Lingyun silently remembered in his heart, seeing that he didn't mean to say anything further, he couldn't help asking: "What about after that?"
The man sighed: "After that, there are no immortals in this world, there is no need to say it!"
"Why?" Yan Lingyun said suspiciously.
The man said, "It will not benefit you to know now, but you will know later."
After a pause, he turned to ask, "Can you agree to my request?"
Yan Lingyun's expression froze, and he said with a wry smile: "Since my predecessors know that I already have someone else in my heart, I should know that it is impossible for me to love someone with all my heart."
But I heard the man laugh and said: "This is not a problem, I will let you have another self, let the second you, love for me, otherwise do you think I will entrust my woman to a man who may have more than one woman."
"Regenerate a self?" Yan Lingyun was puzzled.
The man said: "It is equivalent to the second primordial god of Fa cultivation, but it is higher than the second primordial god, and it is an independent and unified individual."
"Isn't that two mes!" Yan Lingyun had a sense of fantasy.
The man nodded and said, "It can be said that it is like having two minds, but on both sides it is a sound mind and a sound personality. What I ask is the second you, you can only love my woman with all your heart and give her happiness, even if he has the same heart as you, you can't think about the good of other women. ”
Yan Lingyun's mind was chaotic, he couldn't figure out what state it was, and he couldn't speak.
"Why are you hesitating?" The man asked.
Yan Lingyun glanced up at him, and stopped talking.
"If you're worried about age, you don't have to." The man said, "In the cultivation world, under the age of 1,000 is a young man, and under 10,000 years is middle-aged, and only those who are more than 10,000 years old can be called old. There is no difference between a woman in her two hundreds and a teenager in her twenties, and I have seen a woman in her ninety-hundreds, who married a young man in her twenties. ”
Yan Lingyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"How?" The man urged.
Yan Lingyun suddenly turned on his face and said: "The seniors also know that this emotional matter is good when the two are happy, even if the kid agrees to you now, I don't know if I will be ashamed of your hard work." And then you ...... It may not be a brat. ”
The man was silent for a moment and sighed: "You know better than me that in my life, because of a love word, I have ruined myself, my beloved woman, my brother, and my master's painstaking cultivation!" But by the time I understood this, everything was a foregone conclusion. I beg you, I just want to make up for some guilt in my heart, my woman is the daughter of Shizun, that is, my junior sister, I forcibly possessed her, and she ...... me Limited to brother and sister love! ”
Speaking of this, his whole body fluctuated violently, as if in the next moment, it would be scattered into nothingness.
"Senpai!" Yan Lingyun exclaimed.
The man's body was shocked, and gradually calmed down, looking at Yan Lingyun, the Guangzhi in his eyes dimmed a little, and said: "The former junior sister is bright and generous, and all the beautiful words in the world are piled together, and she is not as beautiful. She said she wanted to travel to Zhongzhou, so I went to Zhongzhou with her. There, we met a man named Xi Tianbai, who later became my brother, and the three of us went to explore the secluded places and enjoy themselves freely. It's just that I gradually feel that Xi Tianbai is too close to his junior sister, and his junior sister is as good to him as he is to me. I felt a little bad in my heart, and I thought that I was too cautious, so I didn't break the contradiction. Later, when we separated, my sister and I returned to Jianzhou, and I cultivated to the level, and after refining with the sword, I built a sword shrine. At that time, my sister stood by the sword mound every day, praying for me, I sensed it, I was very happy, I thought that I must break the sword mound as soon as possible, climb the high ladder, become the most powerful sword master, and then show my love to my sister. ”
Speaking of this, he was afraid that Yan Lingyun would not be very clear, so he explained: "Swordsman, divide the seven steps of sword, sword, spitting, splitting, condensation, joint refining, and sword mound." Before raising a sword, you have to cast a sword with your own hands, use your own blood as a guide, enter the vein magic circle, and then raise it with essence blood every day to activate it until you can carry the original god, so as to use the god sword. With the deepening of one's own cultivation, he will be able to induce the sword gang, and then practice the gang into silk, differentiating thousands of people, and then he will be able to condense the law. The condensation method pays attention to control and compression, in addition to defeating the enemy, it is also to lay the foundation for joint refining. The reason why it is said that sword cultivation is similar to law cultivation is because sword cultivation also pays attention to the three flavors of true fire, and uses the samadhi true fire formed by the three flavors of essence, qi, and god to combine itself and the sword into a furnace and build a sword shrine, which is expected to become a sword master. ”
After a pause, the man deliberately said: "The sword mound ring is the most dangerous, if you are not careful, you may be swallowed by the sword." People and swords compete with each other, and if people are strong, the sword will be the master; If the sword is strong, the person will die! Most of the magic weapons in the world with machine spirits came from this way. ”
Yan Lingyun's heart was shocked, he couldn't imagine that the path of cultivation was so dangerous!
The man looked at him and said calmly: "Mortals obey the destiny of heaven, there are births, old age, sickness and death, cultivators go against the sky, and while gaining strength, they will also suffer more. Martial arts cultivation is okay, because the cultivation is difficult, and the cultivation is also oneself, and there is basically no disaster and no difficulty; When the Fa cultivation reaches the depths, the catastrophes of the five decays of heaven and man, cause and effect, life and death, etc., are almost followed step by step; Our sword cultivation is much better than the law cultivation, but the sword mound is a big level, even if the sword mound is broken, you have to go through the chivalrous ladder to become the sword master. ”
"Senior, what is a chivalrous ladder?" Yan Lingyun asked.
The man explained: "The sword is an upright and chivalrous soldier, so in the cultivation level of our sword cultivation, there is a swordsman." The chivalrous ladder is the ladder leading to the sword master, born from the sympathy of heaven and man, and those who practice other weapons and magic weapons do not have a chivalrous ladder, which is why they are not as good as sword cultivation. Walking the ladder of chivalry is a process of asking the heart, every time you climb a step, the spiritual realm will be sublimated once, and the sword will fit a point, which is really related to the future achievements of a sword master. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Since it is a conscience, there is a risk of the opposite, once the heart can't hold on, or if you are ashamed of the righteousness of the swordsman, you will fall into the devil's way, known as the sword demon, the person who cultivates the sword, everyone will be punished!"
Speaking of this, Yan Lingyun saw that his body was fluctuating slightly, obviously evoking some memories of him, and asked at the right time: "Senior, how many steps is the highest in the chivalry ladder?"
The man's expression seemed to become serious, and he said in a low voice: "The highest forty-nine, across forty-nine, the legend can see the deceased one!" It's just that for tens of millions of years, none of the generations of sword cultivation have been successful! I ......" At this, he paused.
