Chapter 564: Sword One
When the old man Xuanji saw Zhang Ruochen's distressed expression, he thought that he had suppressed it too much, and was about to say something to comfort Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen's expression was solemn, and he sighed: "The content of "Sword One" is quite obscure, and the disciple's qualifications are dull, and he can only understand three-tenths. ”
The old man Xuanji was stunned.
What the?
Can you understand 3 out of 10 of the content after just reading it once?
You must know that when the old man Xuanji watched "Sword One" for the first time, he didn't even understand one-tenth of the content.
I understand three tenths of the way, and I dare to say that my qualifications are dull, isn't this a lack of pumping?
The old man looked at Zhang Ruochen carefully, a little unconvinced, and asked, "Are you sure you can understand three-tenths?"
Zhang Ruochen said: "I just understood three-tenths of the content, why is the master so surprised?"
The old man Xuanji knew that Zhang Ruochen couldn't lie, and he could only sigh in his heart, this little disciple's qualification in the way of the sword was really amazingly high.
The old man stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "Being able to understand three-tenths of the content of "Sword One" shows that your understanding of the way of the sword has surpassed that of some half-saints. ”
"However, it can only show that you are very qualified in the way of the sword, and it is still unknown whether you can successfully cultivate "Sword One". ”
"Understanding is only the first step. Being able to successfully cultivate "Sword One" can be regarded as an introduction to sword cultivation. ”
Zhang Ruochen didn't roughly understand until this moment that he was able to understand three-tenths of the content of "Sword One", which was already quite remarkable.
However, what the master said is also very reasonable, even if you understand it completely, it is not a big deal. Being able to cultivate successfully is the real ability.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Master said that many half-saints can't understand "Sword One". Could it be that only by reaching the half-saint realm can you successfully cultivate Sword One?"
The old man Xuanji said: "Not necessarily. If your qualifications are high enough, in the Fish Dragon Realm, it is also possible to successfully cultivate "Sword One". When you reach the half-saint realm, you can start cultivating Sword II. ”
Zhang Ruochen asked curiously: "And "Sword Two"?"
"Of course. ”
The old man Xuanji nodded and said, "'Sword One' represents 'self', 'Sword Two' represents 'Yin and Yang', and on top of this, there are 'Sword Three' and 'Sword Four'...... Every time a sword book is cultivated, the monk's understanding of the way of the sword will be upgraded to a new world. ”
Like a schoolchild, Zhang Ruochen continued to ask: "How to understand 'self' and how to understand 'yin and yang'?"
The old man shook his head and said, "You can't teach it, you can only understand it yourself." As a teacher, I can only tell you that only if you successfully cultivate "Sword One" can you be regarded as a real sword cultivator. ”
"Your fifth senior sister is also extremely talented in kendo. However, she has been practicing for decades, and now she has barely reached the entry level of "Sword II". Therefore, at this stage, you don't want to be higher, and if you succeed in cultivating "Sword One" first, it will be enough to increase your strength greatly. ”
Zhang Ruochen remembered the sword trick that the fifth senior sister used to defeat the Earth Fire Qilin in the Xuanwu Ruins Realm, so he read: "Yin and Yang divide heaven and earth, and the sword path will naturally end." ”
At that time, the fifth senior sister recited this mantra.
Old Man Xuanji said, "That's right. It is one of the mantras in "Sword II". ”
Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but squeeze the "Sword One" in his hand a little tighter, and said: "The disciple will definitely be in the Fish Dragon Realm, and he will successfully cultivate the "Sword One". ”
The old man Xuanji said with a smile: "You must know that in the past thousand years, there have only been thirty-four people who have successfully cultivated Sword One in the Fish and Dragon Realm. ”
Zhang Ruochen asked, "Shizun is also one of them?"
"That's right. ”
The old man Xuanji seemed quite proud, after all, it was indeed quite a remarkable thing to successfully cultivate "Sword One" in the Fish Dragon Realm.
However, the old man Xuanji said again: "However, among the thirty-four people, there are still two people who have successfully cultivated Sword II in the Fish and Dragon Realm. ”
Zhang Ruochen has read the content of "Sword One", and of course he knows how mysterious "Sword One" is.
It can be seen that "Sword II" must be even more remarkable.
If you want to succeed in cultivating "Sword One", it is already extremely difficult. Unexpectedly, there are still people who can cultivate into "Sword II" in the Fish Dragon Realm.
Don't...... It's him.
In Zhang Ruochen's mind, he thought of a person from 800 years ago.
That man was one of the Nine Emperors.
Sure enough, Old Man Xuanji's next words confirmed Zhang Ruochen's conjecture.
The old man Xuanji said: "Those two are the Sword Emperor and the Empress Chi Yao. ”
"As a teacher, you don't want to be able to compare to the two of them, if you can successfully cultivate "Sword One" in the Fish Dragon Realm, you will already be quite happy as a teacher. ”
The name of the Sword Emperor can be said to be thunderous to Zhang Ruochen.
The Sword Emperor, named "Xue Hongchen", is the son of the city lord of Wanxiang City, with unparalleled talent, swordsmanship, and grace like jade, at the age of thirty-six, he surpassed his father Wanxiang City Lord and became the world-famous Hongchen Sword Saint.
Later, Xue Hongchen's realm in the way of the sword became higher and higher, and finally reached a realm that no one could surpass, becoming the emperor of the sword of that era.
At the same time, Xue Hongchen is also the youngest among the Nine Emperors.
The reason why Emperor Ming named his son "Zhang Ruochen" was actually to hope that Zhang Ruochen could be as good as Sword Emperor Xue Hongchen.
At that time, there was a saying in the Kunlun world - "Hongchen Sword Saint plays Hongchen, and giving birth to a son should be like snow and red dust".
Although Zhang Ruochen has never seen the Sword Emperor, he has always taken the Sword Emperor as an example since he was a child.
Therefore, at this moment, when he heard the old man Xuanji mention the name of the Sword Emperor for the second time, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but ask: "Master, what realm did the Sword Emperor reach back then?"
The old man Xuanji looked into the distance, revealing an expression of unprecedented fascination, and said, "The Sword Emperor has not appeared in the Kunlun Realm for many years, and no one knows what realm he has reached. It's just that I heard that eight hundred years ago, he had successfully cultivated "Sword Ten", and some people said that he had realized "Sword Eleven". There are many rumors, however, no one knows the true realm of the Sword Emperor. ”
Zhang Ruochen asked again: "So, what realm can you cultivate to be called a Sword Saint?"
"At the very least, you must successfully cultivate Sword Seven before you can be named a Sword Saint. ”
Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised, and said, "In the entire Eastern Regions, only three people have successfully cultivated Sword Seven?"
"Exactly. ”
The old man Xuanji sighed and said, "So, in the Fish and Dragon Realm, even if you fail to cultivate into Sword One, don't be discouraged, that's just an expectation for the teacher." ”
Zhang Ruochen and the old man Xuanji continued to discuss "Wordless Sword Spectrum".
It wasn't until nightfall that Zhang Ruochen left the Linghe Pear Garden with the sword book of "Sword One", walked out of the Holy Courtyard, and walked towards the famous King Street.
The half-saint mansion that Kong Lanyou gave him is located on Mingwang Street.
Zhang Ruochen walked in the middle of the busy street, and in his mind, he was still comprehending "Sword One", reaching the level of fascination.
His eyes were staring blankly ahead, and all his thoughts were in his mind.
Before he knew it, he had come to the outside of the mansion, pushed open the door, and walked in.
"Huh!"
I had just walked in the door when suddenly, a sword sounded.
The sharp sword qi broke through the air, and above Zhang Ruochen's eyes, a white sword light two fingers wide was reflected.
The sword light was quite dazzling, making Zhang Ruochen can't help but close his eyes.
"Zheng!"
Sensing the danger, the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword automatically flew out of its scabbard.
Zhang Ruochen reacted almost instinctively, and with a finger, the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword drew an arc-shaped trajectory and slashed towards the shade on the left side of the gate.
"Smack".
As the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword fell, the opponent's sword was immediately broken in response to the sound and turned into two pieces.
Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and was about to take out his sword again to slash over, but he saw that the person who shot at him just now was only a five or six-year-old girl.
It's the cold snow.
At this time, Han Xue stood under the shade of the tree, holding a broken sword in his hand, his white and tender little hands were full of blood, holding back the pain in his wrist and quickly retreating.
In an instant, Zhang Ruochen immediately woke up, and hurriedly controlled the heart of the sword intent, and withdrew the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword into its scabbard.
"Hanxue, how could it be you?"
Zhang Ruochen immediately rushed over to check Han Xue's injuries.
The sword just now, although Zhang Ruochen only hit it casually, the power contained in it was extraordinary.
How old is Han Xue, how can he withstand Zhang Ruochen's sword.
Fortunately, the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword only cut off Han Xue's sword, cracking the tiger's mouth in her right hand, and she suffered some minor injuries, but it was not serious.
Han Xue didn't cry, just pursed her lips hard, and said pitifully: "Master, what were you thinking about just now? You were too heavy, and you almost killed Han Xue." ”
"I'm sorry, Shizun was Wujian just now, but I didn't expect you to be the one who made the shot. By the way, why did you ambush Master?"
Zhang Ruochen stretched out his broad palm and pressed it on Han Xue's wrist, injecting a stream of true qi into the meridians of her arm, wanting to help her heal.
But Zhang Ruochen found that his true qi had not yet been injected into Han Xue's meridians, and the injuries on Han Xue's hands began to heal automatically.
Hey!
How so?
Zhang Ruochen's body has Dragon Balls, and she does not have such a strong self-healing ability as her.
In just a moment, Han Xue's right hand healed again, leaving not even a scar.
What surprised Zhang Ruochen even more was that although the sword he cut out earlier had broken Hanxue's saber, it had not shaken her sword off.
In her hand, she still clenched the broken sword tightly.
You must know that Han Xue is only less than six years old now, and his cultivation is so strong that it is a bit terrifying.
"It's worthy of a thousand-bone physique, and it's really extraordinary. Zhang Ruochen said secretly.
Han Xue showed her snow-white teeth, her eyes flashed, and she said, "Earlier, Sister Yanchen came to the mansion, and she told me that Shizun had returned to the Eastern Regions Holy City. So, I thought that when Master Zun came back, I would let Master Zun see the results of my recent cultivation. That's why I deliberately attacked Shizun, but I didn't expect that my cultivation was too poor, and I was not Shizun's opponent at all. Master, do you think that cold snow is very useless?"
As he spoke, Han Xue lowered his head, looking quite distressed.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head with a smile, stretched out a hand, rubbed it on her head, and said, "If you are useless, is there still a useful person in the world?
Han Xue called Zhang Ruochen as his teacher, but called Huang Yanchen his sister, which is really weird.
However, Zhang Ruochen did not ask the reason.
He was even more curious, the purpose of the yellow smoke?
Han Xue shook her little head, wrenched her fingers, and said, "I don't know, I only saw that Sister Yanchen came with a middle-aged uncle, and I was beside me, and I vaguely heard them talking about the dowry...... Be a guest...... What else is the marriage contract...... Anyway, I don't really understand. ”
Zhang Ruochen's expression was solemn, and he probably understood the purpose of Huang Yanchen's coming, so he took Han Xue's little hand and walked towards the inner courtyard.
