The apprentice master sat down on a large rock and asked Owen that you know what the strongest weapon is

The strongest weapon, Owen's eyes, I think it should be the legendary lost king of the Sealand Kingdom, the legendary king of the 'Undefeated King' Solomon, the holy sword 'Eternal Victory'

The mismaker shook his head

So...... Owen thought for a moment that it must be the supreme treasure of the elves--the divine bow 'Caysie's Sanction'

Wrong

Oh, Owen thought about the history of the Olopa civilization he had learned in the Snowy Federation, and squeezed out the third answer, which was the 'Spear of Longinus' that stabbed the Messiah to death in the Holy Light allusion.

rethink

That must be......

Don't mention these legendary treasure artifact masters interrupted him

Isn't it the legendary divine weapon, could it be that the strongest weapon that the master craftsman said is from the vast continent across the ocean

It's not that your understanding of weapons is too superficial

Too superficial then ask the teacher what is the strongest weapon

person

This answer made Owen almost fall

It took a while for Owen to realize that he was a little clever: the master meant that there was or had been a person in the world who could defeat all the treasures and divine weapons

The 'people' mentioned by the teacher are not a specific person, but everyone in the world, that is to say, people themselves are the most powerful weapons in the world

Master, I don't quite understand Owen scratching his head

Yes, people's bodies are very fragile, far less sharp and hard than swords, guns, axes, but no matter what kind of weapon, even if it is enough to shatter the world, the power of the world's divine weapons is limited after all, but people can use their own hands to create infinite possibilities, no matter how powerful the weapon is, it must be manipulated by people; any weapon is just an extension of people's hands, and can only dance with people's consciousness, those so-called treasure weapons are actually a stone picked up on the ground, a branch broken from a tree, A kitchen knife in the peasant woman's kitchen has no essential difference, you can use them to kill, or save lives, or put it away forever, in the end, whether it is a treasure weapon or a stone, a branch, a kitchen knife, it is inseparable from human manipulation, once these weapons leave the hands of the operator, what is the difference between them and waste, that is to say, any weapon in the world is inferior to a human hand

Owen nodded again and again, as if he understood

The master waved his hand casually: Okay, now that you understand the practice, let's go

Practice what Owen is at a loss

Naturally, it is hand-to-hand combat that allows you to be above all weapons

Hand-to-hand combat, you haven't taught me any moves yet

Do you need a move, the master stroked his beard, hehe, laughed, people are alive, the living are dead, the living can not be bound by the dead moves, any move can be cracked, too rigid in the moves, but make you complacent, tied hands and feet, when all the moves are cracked, only let people slaughter, if you have no moves, how to break the enemy

Without a move, Owen muttered authentically, and gradually a new world seemed to appear in front of him

However, Owen raised another question: what is the difference between an attack without any moves, pure violence without any rules, and a brawl between a street gangster, how can a market street defeat a battle-hardened strongman

The so-called 'strong' is nothing more than a person, maybe a god, maybe a demon, whether it is a human, a god, a demon or other species, they are just one of the things that make up heaven and earth, no matter how strong the 'strong' is, he can fight against all things in heaven and earth

Ahh

You have learned how to sense and connect the flow of energy between all things, as long as you follow the knowledge, seeing, hearing, touching, thinking, and understanding of the world, do whatever you want, forget about your own existence, and only think that you are all things, and any opponent who is against you is the enemy of all things in the world

This class benefited Owen a lot, I remember that when I was in the Paladin Training Camp on Key Island, those instructors taught very strictly, and the students practiced swordsmanship or other combat skills, as long as they deviated slightly from half an inch, the instructor would severely reprimand and correct them immediately, so that every move and routine must always be practiced perfectly, there was no mistake, Owen was born with very poor qualifications, and the starting point was behind other students of the same age, but he had a strong sense of self-esteem, in order to win the affirmation of the instructor. Let himself be able to hold his head up among the students, he adopts the method of making up for his clumsiness with diligence and perseverance several times harder than others, and is doubly strict with himself when practicing moves and routines

How do you know that the master's teaching is completely opposite to the instructors in the training camp, as long as he does what he wants, this way of teaching, not to mention the rigid and serious instructors in the training camp, is a deviant and nonsense for any of the Olopa fighters, but this different theory gives Owen an unprecedented fresh feeling, and it is what he likes, making him unrestrained when practicing, and his heart is beautiful and unspeakable, and the taste is endless

Conversations like this often take place between the master and the apprentice, and after each conversation with the master, Owen's feelings reach a whole new level

However, Owen never knew the name of his teacher, and when Owen asked him about his real name, he laughed: Would you like to know the name of a speck of dust, in the vast universe, man is just a very small speck of dust, and the name is not enough to worry about my old body, and the same is true of my old body, what is the importance of the name, you can call me anything, it is too troublesome, I will be called 'master', or you can think of other simple and easy to remember titles

In the tradition of Olopa, all those who have some ability attach great importance to their own names, because names represent a kind of honor, but the master craftsman actually said the name that others take so seriously as light as a feather, and it must take a long time for Owen to digest the meaning, and the master never asked Owen's name, and Owen took the initiative to tell the master

In fact, the unity of heaven and man mentioned by the master craftsman is similar to the Druids' doctrine of being close to nature in the realm of philosophy, but compared with the Druids who only worship the primitive wildness and the god of nature, the unity of heaven and man has a broader meaning and a more profound realm. The idea of conquest and adventurous spirit could not have been born in the land of Olopa, and the master craftsman took the initiative to mention to Owen that his homeland was one of the three great empires on the vast continent of the Far East: the True Kingdom

The True Kingdom of the Far East is an extremely large empire, its territory is large, the population is so large that any empire in the history of Olopa is invisible, the emperors of the True Kingdom have supreme power and enjoy endless glory and wealth, but these simply can not satisfy the insatiable emperors, although the Emperor of the True Kingdom claims to be the son of heaven, the incarnation of the true dragon, but they are always just human beings, can not escape the cycle of life, death, sickness and death, even if they have thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, The wealth of the world turned into illusion after death, so the emperors of the past dynasties did not want to get eternal life

Not only the emperor, countless people of the true kingdom are exhausting their lives in the pursuit of immortality, they have made alchemy, practiced spells and other methods, sparing no effort to carry out all kinds of attempts, in the end, some people are highly poisoned and killed, some people have become hateful monsters, no one has a good end, all the attempts at immortality have failed, but a series of setbacks have not made these ignorant people give up their greed for eternal life, they set their sights on the other side of the ocean

There is an ancient legend in the true kingdom that in the far west there is some kind of extremely long-lived creatures whose lifespan is at least hundreds of thousands of years old, and the life span of the heavens and the earth (speaking of the winged elves), so people in the east always fantasize that the west must have the elixir of immortality

Driven by this ancient legend, many emperors who thought they had made great achievements would spend a lot of manpower and material resources to send people to the West in search of the so-called elixir of life, although none of them succeeded, but those greedy emperors always enjoyed it

The search for the elixir of life for the emperor was the reason why the master craftsman had traveled across the ocean and set foot on the land of Olopa

Back then, I was a master craftsman and introduced myself like this

What is a Fangshi?

Similar to what you Olopa call magicians, wizards, and other people who specialize in spells, the master craftsmen explain them in the most understandable words of Owen, but the spells that we monks study are very different from the magic of your Olopa

In fact, the master craftsman is not only a monk, before that, he was also a martial artist, the real country hundreds of thousands of martial artists and monks formed a special group called Jianghu, which is divided into hundreds of large and small sects, in the way of master and apprentice teaching, the essence of learning and ideas from generation to generation, Owen's master craftsman comes from one of the powerful sects, and is also the head of the sect

More than 30 years ago, the sect of master craftsmen was in its heyday, because this sect had hundreds of years of experience in studying the way of immortality, and won the trust of the emperor, so the emperor entrusted the arduous task of finding the elixir of life to this sect to carry out

At that time, Owen's master craftsman was in his prime and high spirits, and he and his junior sister, who was also his wife, led more than 100 elite disciples in the sect to gather more than 200 elite soldiers sent by the emperor to form a medicine search team of more than 300 people, embarked on a large ship bound for the west, and sailed to the sea mightily. Full of confidence, because they were self-assured, they got an important clue, believing that this trip would definitely bring back the elixir from the West, but they never expected that they would lead everyone on a road of no return

Have you found the elixir of life, Owen asked

I have found the master and nodded

Finding the answer made Owen stunned, didn't you say that no one ever gets the elixir of life

There is a certain number of things that do not belong to you, and you will never get it, the master sighed, infinitely sorrowful, and if you are obsessed and forcibly pursued, you will definitely pay a heavy price

After landing, the master craftsman led the medicine search team to search around the three continents of Olopa according to the important clues in his hand, because the struggle between the various ethnic groups and countries of Olopa is quite complicated, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the medicine search team keeps a low profile and tries to avoid unnecessary disputes; , Warcraft, the Central Church, the local nobles, and the orcs have caused them great trouble, they are struggling to survive between the cracks of the major forces, and the master and craftsman watched the disciples and soldiers around them leave one by one and be buried in a foreign land......

After more than ten years of long wanderings of tears and blood, there are only more than 40 people left in this original team of more than 300 people, and their footprints have traveled to every corner of the Olopa Dasanlu, and they have a clear understanding of the history, culture, customs and customs of the countries and ethnic groups of Olopa; However, the master still insisted on his beliefs, he firmly believed that he would be able to find the elixir of life, and after more than ten years of travel, he had mastered more and more clues, and was only one step away from success

It's ridiculous to think about, the master said with a wry smile, at that time, I had a stubborn heart to find the elixir of life, and this paranoia was the same as when I first met you

The master had something to say, and he used his own experience to admonish Owen

Maybe it was the blind cat that met the dead mouse, and the master craftsman continued, and finally let us get what we wanted when he tried one last time

Ah, Owen cast an inquiring look

Seventeen years ago, in a cave on the continent of Morun, we found the elixir of life that we had paid great attention and sacrifice to dream of, but ...... The master's gaze dimmed, but he laid the root of the ruin for the last surviving compatriots

Why did Owen feel a pang in his heart

We met a fateful rival from someone who had also come in search of the elixir of life

who

Hellwarden: Buyos.
