Chapter 138 The unity of man and sword
Ling Yun's simple question made Xuantian Zhan's state of mind ripple slightly, so that cracks appeared on the sea surface under Xuantian Zhan's feet, spreading to the four heavens and earths.
Winning or losingFor normal cultivators, there may not be anything worth thinking about, losing is losing, winning is winning, and it is no more simple than a simple question.
But this question falls on Xuan Tianzhan, winning or losing represents life and death, that is the choice of life, so the question of Ling Yun is worth thinking about.
However, Ling Yun was not just asking Xuan Tianzhan, he was asking himself.
Because Lingyun is no better than Xuan Tianzhan's life, and even worse than Xuan Tianzhan, in this world where martial arts are flourishing and martial arts are prevalent, for orphans, it is no less than the end of the world.
In this regard, Ling Yun has a secret hidden in his heart, that is, Ling Yun actually remembers his mother, although Ling Yun at that time was only three years old.
Ling Yun's mother is just an ordinary woman, and she is also a woman in Yandu.
The so-called smoke capital is the land of fireworks.
Most of the women here are from ruined families or people from other countries, and after being taken in by Yanhuang, they do some leather and meat business.
Of course, Ling Yun's mother was not, but it was not far away, so she fled, and on the way to escape, she met Ling Yun's father, thus giving birth to Ling Yun, and later Ling Yun's mother became pregnant again, and died of dystocia due to the force of life.
So much so that the three-year-old Ling Yun, as well as the younger siblings who were just born, were raised by their fathers.
However, the good times did not last long, and not long after, my father died due to overwork and exhaustion, and at that time, there was no money for treatment.
So the three-year-old Ling Yun wandered alone with his younger siblings, often without food, and one day, when Ling Yun came home, he found that his younger siblings had died tragically, leaving only a puddle of meat mud, and since then Ling Yun has also begun to change.
Although, Ling Yun in the back, who appeared in the orphanage bizarrely, was often bullied, like Ling Yun, a child of unknown origin, in fact, the orphanage would not accept it.
However, the orphanage that took in Ling Yun was not a very good kind, anyway, it didn't take long for the old dean to pass away, and the orphanage was dispersed since then, and Ling Yun, Leng Tong, and Dusk Xue moved out of the orphanage and lived a difficult life.
Fortunately, the old dean is a good person, so that every child goes to school, and Ling Yun and the three of them work hard enough, but their life is much better than before, but in school, Ling Yun has a blue nose and swollen face every day, which is a later story.
"If you are facing a swordsman, winning or losing is too superficial for kendo" It didn't take long for Xuan Tianzhan to give his answer, and then he saw the sea, and returned to a state without wind and waves, calm as a mirror.
"Being able to defeat a master with a sword, isn't it one step closer to the pinnacle of kendo for a swordsman?" Ling Yun already knew Xuan Tianzhan's answer, for those who wanted to kill him, there was only one sword, and if it was a swordsman, it was another matter.
"This is not into the way, so as to derive the psychology of the competition, when meeting the opponent, is an inevitable idea, but to go to the peak of the sword, but it is not to defeat anyone can become, in short, winning or losing is not the way to the peak of the sword, only know the sword and understand the sword, the party is the peak of the sword"
Xuan Tianzhan and Ling Yun talked eloquently, both of them have reached the pinnacle of the world's swords, compared to Ling Yun's sword, Xuan Tianzhan is even better, and the two can also argue with each other.
"Can you enter the Tao?"
Ling Yun didn't even say the word "sir" this time, just "you", the word sir is not simple, generally speaking, this kind of title is only for those who are at the top of their peak, such as Shillong and Bai Hong.
Of course, Ling Yun still carries the memories of his previous life with Xuan Tianzhan, and he has learned other people's swords, and he deserves a "sir".
"Never"
Even if Xuan Tianzhan is a half-step sword intent, he still feels that he has not entered the Dao, and the half-step sword intent is not simple, for a master like the four great sword cultivators, Xuan Tianzhan can only look at each other.
Of course, the same is true for Ling Yun.
As for why Xuan Tianzhan was able to easily defeat Ling Yun and discuss kendo with Ling Yun, it was obvious that he had misplaced the grade.
That's because everyone's Tao is different.
However, all the masters of the martial arts of the potential realm and above have their own way, whether it is the way of the sword, the way of the sword, the way of the gun, the way of domineering, etc., they all have their own unique opinions.
Of course, Xuan Tianzhan was more interested in Ling Yun's sword path, and he was also willing to listen to each cultivator's way and realize his own way from it, so as to find a breakthrough.
What is Kendo?
Whether it is the way of heaven or humanity, it originally comes from the heart of the person who holds the sword, and the sword that no one holds is just a "dead" thing after all, so the way of the sword is actually the way of "people", and the sword is just the carrier of the way of "people".
Different people have different hearts, so everyone's kendo cannot be the same, just like in the world, there are no two leaves that are exactly the same.
It is worth thinking about whether the humanity of "human" is the same as the humanity of heaven, earth and man.
This may have to wait for a super strong person to answer, maybe it is Bai Hong, maybe it is Fengxing, maybe it is Xuan Tianzhan, and it is more likely to be Ling Yun himself.
No matter who they are, their sword path must be different, what kind of person, what kind of belief they uphold in their hearts, and what kind of way they evolve.
Of course, if you use weapons to divide the way of the sword, the way of the sword, the way of the martial arts, it would be too one-sided, any way is different, the way of martial arts is just the way of martial arts, the way of the sword is only the way of the sword, any way can only be regarded as the way of one's own choice if it is sincere and single-minded.
For the way of the sword to distinguish the martial arts, this is not an obsession, this is the existence of transcending obsession, and only such a sincere way is the true way of the sword.
"Mr. is not entering the Dao, or is he entering the Dao" Ling Yun pressed forward step by step, not letting go of Xuan Tianzhan at all, and then saw thousands of sharp swords surrounding Xuan Tianzhan.
"Entering is not the Dao, the Tao is not entering" Xuan Tianzhan's sentence believes that the Tao does not need to enter at all, the Tao is everywhere, and everywhere is the Dao, which easily dissolves Ling Yun's sword momentum.
"That gentleman thinks that the unity of man and sword is the initiation of the Tao?" Ling Yun believes that the way of the sword must enter the Tao, and if you don't understand the Tao, it is not the Tao, and it is not that the Tao does not understand the Tao.
When Ling Yun finished saying this, in Xuan Tianzhan's eyes, Ling Yun was not a human at all, and a sword, a sword that had been tempered for a thousand times, and then a sword momentum, completely separated Ling Yun from the world and became a world of its own.
"Your sword is sharper"
When Xuan Tianzhan finished saying this, the whole world seemed to be completely suspended, and even time began to freeze, faintly touching the mystery of time and space.
The world is suspended, this is already a great supernatural power.
But Xuan Tianzhan is just a sentence, and he actually touched the rules, maybe when Xuan Tianzhan's sword intent is completed, he also has the power to cut through time and space.
Of course, Xuan Tianzhan's words can only be understood by Ling Yun, because the previous Ling Yun did not step into the first sword momentum of the sword, but the current Ling Yun's sword momentum faintly suppressed those old kendo masters, but it was also the result of accumulation.
At the end, who was Xuan Tianzhan, who touched the sword intent, and began to ask Ling Yun: "What is the unity of man and sword, man is sword, sword is man, I have a sword, I have a sword, this is the unity of man and sword?" ”
"Definitely"
Ling Yun shook his head, if this is just a combination of human and sword, it is too superficial and too simple, maybe it is okay to put it in a martial arts novel, but for Ling Yun's world, it is too low-end.
The unity of human and sword is not considered the realm of swordsmanship, but only a realm, and the realm of swordsmanship and realm are two levels of concepts, and they cannot be said the same.
The unity of man and sword, simply put, is that you and the sword are integrated, so that the sword becomes a part of your body, and you can perceive every subtle movement of the sword, which is the unity of man and sword.
Generally speaking, as long as you forget your thoughts, listen to the sound of the sword all the time, and listen to the breath of the sword, you can turn the sword into a sword, act with the sword, go with the sword, and the sword will be clear, so as to comprehend the unity of the human sword.
Of course, this realm can be said to be the highest realm of the sword path below the transcendental, and it is really flawless, because there is no difference between people and swords, and it can stimulate its own power to the greatest extent, so as to attract the Tao in the underworld.
But above the extraordinary, now the martial artist is already the evolution of the life level, not to mention the Shouyuan issue, the power of light and light has surpassed the category of the martial artist.
And the ancient warriors are even more terrifying, at the beginning it is the qi realm, and when it reaches the potential realm, it is the existence of the earth immortals, among the Taoists, it is the legendary three-flower gathering top, the five qi dynasty yuan, all kinds of incredible supernatural powers, and they come by hand.
It is said that in the primeval period, it was called an immortal cultivator or a true cultivator, the meaning of the true self, and the potential was comparable to that of an immortal, anyway, it was a legend, and it was separated by countless eras, and the inheritance was broken.
Therefore, the unity of man and sword is below the extraordinary, invincible in the same realm, man is the sword, the sword is the person, the heart is the sword, the heart is the person, the sword is a part of the body, or the body of the swordsman, any part can be a sword, which really brings the sword to the extreme, to the peak.
But is this sword invincible?
Obviously not, any Dao has a corresponding way to restrain it, no matter how sharp the sword, no matter how clever the swordsman, when it comes to the environment where the sword can't be played, I'm afraid that he can only have a weak heart and be controlled by others!
It can be seen that the unity of man and sword is not flawless, and it will still be restrained.
"What is that initiation?"
