Chapter 28: The Way of the Self
In the cave, Mu Jun looked at Shen Tingxu who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, who was healing his wounds, and his body was emitting a pale red light.
Mu Jun shook his head: "I don't know who your master is, but he actually chose to transfer his skills to you by pulling out seedlings, so that your achievements will inevitably be limited, and his influence cannot be surpassed by great wisdom, perseverance, and courage." ”
Shen Tingxu exhaled a breath of turbidity and couldn't help but look at him: "I don't know why Mr. Mu said this?"
Mu Jun said: "Your cultivation was transferred by your master, and the sword technique was also passed on by him, it can be said that it originated from him completely, if there is no accident, you will reach the level of his peak at most in this life, and you will not be able to surpass him." There was a hint of regret on his face.
Shen Ting couldn't help but bow his head and sighed: "My master's real name is Qi Tai, and he is a famous sword king, but in the past, he was above the wind and clouds, and he was defeated by the sword god Chu Jinghong, and he was seriously injured. Disheartened, he practiced hard outside this jade capital for decades, and finally realized the next level of the sword, but at that time, his body had reached the limit, and he could not use the fourth sword of his life's achievement, so he could only choose to pass on his cultivation and sword technique to me, hoping that I could inherit everything from him and defeat Chu Jinghong with the fourth sword. ”
"I see, no wonder he would do this, because to him, you are not an apprentice, but a tool to prove that you are stronger than Chu Jinghong. Mu Jun said coldly, "The master preaches and teaches to solve doubts, and treats students or disciples only to guide them, and should not use their own will to lock up the disciple and manipulate his life, such a master is not responsible at all." ”
Shen Tingxu's face changed, and he said with a straight face: "Mr. Mu, I am very grateful to you for saving me, and I admire your achievements in martial arts even more, but my master is one of the two most important people in my life, and he is a dead man, I hope you don't slander him." ”
Mu Jun said indifferently: "Slander? He doesn't have this qualification yet." As he spoke, he raised his hand to make a knife and slashed at the void.
A lingering grievance, containing dead sword intent filled the cave, as if an old man was about to finish his life, the last light that broke out when he returned to the light, although faint, but it was shocking.
"This is the fourth sword, which is based on the three swords you have used, the crowning achievement of his life. Mu Jun said, stretching out his hand a little, and the earth-shattering sword intent suddenly disintegrated.
Then he looked back at Shen Tingxu, who was a little dull-eyed, and said, "But this is a knife that condenses his lifelong wisdom, for Jun, it is just a snap of his fingers, what qualifications do you say he has to be slandered by Jun?"
Shen Tingxu was silent.
After a long time, he said: "Mr. Mu, your strength and realm are indeed unattainable, maybe I will not be able to reach you in my life, but Master is Master, and he is the most important person to me." ”
"It's not for you to have any other thoughts about your master, but I just want you to be able to correctly understand the difference between yourself and him, and not let his will control your life. Mu Jun stood with his hands in his hands and looked up at the sky, "You must know that you are much better than him, so you should be able to walk out of your own life, out of the way that belongs to you, not his way." ”
"My way, his way ......" Shen Tingxuan was silent after silence, intellectually he understood that Mu Jun was right, his own path should not be planned by the master, but emotionally, he was unwilling to go against the master's will.
In the midst of the contradictions, he suddenly clenched his fists, raised his head firmly, and said: "Next year is a new battle of wind and clouds, the first sword competition in the world, I want to defeat Chu Jinghong, and at the same time cut off my own past, cut off the influence of my master on me, and walk out of my own path." ”
Glancing at him coldly, Mu Jun said: "With your current cultivation, you can't win against Chu Jinghong, although I haven't seen this person, but you can infer his strength, and he will definitely not be too weak than Gongsun Xu, even if you reach the Winter Hiding Realm, you are also a head behind, unless you realize the fourth sword just now." ”
"Gradually dusk, this is the name of the fourth knife!" Shen Tingxu said calmly and firmly, "I will comprehend this knife in the remaining half a year." ”
Mu Jun said: "At this point, they are not optimistic about you. ”
"Why, just now you said that I am better than Master. ”
But that doesn't mean you can get to the top of his life in a short period of time, unless you're facing that kind of despair. Mu Jun said lightly, "But they don't support you to choose this way, in fact, there are many powerful martial arts in the world, and there are countless moves that can defeat Chu Jinghong, and you can take out thousands of them casually, so you don't need to choose that sword." ”
"But ......," Shen Tingxu hesitated on his face.
"You all know what you want to say, if you don't use that knife, how can you prove yourself for your master?" Mu Jun smiled lightly, "Actually, have you ever thought about creating your own fourth sword according to the first three swords, so that you, as your master's apprentice, use your own sword to defeat an opponent he has not defeated, for your master, isn't it a victory?"
Shen Ting pondered for a moment and muttered, "Realize the fourth sword that belongs to me?"
Mu Jun said to him solemnly: "Only in this way can you defeat Chu Jinghong with one sword, and at the same time, you can also cut off your master's influence on you, cut off the past, and gain the future!"
Shen Tingxu couldn't help frowning: "But it's too difficult!"
Mu Jun said coldly: "Jun said that you are very good, so you all believe that you can do it, but you yourself don't want to believe in yourself? ”
"No, I believe in you, and I believe in myself even more!" Shen Tingxu's eyes suddenly burst into a light, both firm and confident.
Mu Jun said slowly: "There are few things in this world that cannot be done, not so much because the conditions are insufficient, but because most people are not determined enough and not strong-willed. Believe in yourself, you're halfway there. ”
At this time, a golden light crossed the sky, and it was Gongsun Xu who came here.
Seeing him, Shen Tingxu hurriedly asked, "Brother Gongsun, how is my sister?"
Gongsun Xu said: "Don't worry, she's fine, Tao Daoming and they have already placed her and Qian Xunli in Tai Academy, and there is still a safety guarantee there." ”
"Then I'll be relieved," Shen Tingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, as a student of Tai Academy, he naturally knew about the situation of Tai Academy, it was very safe there.
Gongsun Xu smiled again at this time: "Tell you a good news, you may have a brother-in-law soon." ”
"What?" Shen Ting opened his mouth, stunned for a moment.
Mu Jun said at this time: "Since Gongsun Xu is back, then Jun will leave first." ”
"Sir, go slowly, the two of us will come to thank you in the future. Gongsun Xu bowed.
"Then you don't need to, I have a child there, you will scare her. Mu Jun smiled lightly, and his figure disappeared.
