Chapter 23: Talking

This feeling, as if, encountered the moment of death, Cang Xingyu himself was already so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and he didn't even know what to do next, although he was now in Li Xiao's body, he could clearly feel that it was a sword qi filled with the breath of death.

Groove cake, can't hide, are you going to die here?

However, Li Xiao stayed in place, not moving, watching Ouyang Zipeng rush straight by, just when Ouyang Zipeng's sword was away from Li Xiao's throat, but only an inch, Li Xiao moved.

No one knew what Li Xiao had done, but at that moment, Li Xiao gently raised the burning long sword and pointed it at Ouyang Zipeng's throat, carrying the burning sword qi, and only 0.01 millimeters were left from Ouyang Zipeng's throat, as if, Ouyang Zipeng's further movements, the burning sword qi, could penetrate Ouyang Zipeng's throat at any time.

Ouyang Zipeng's original death-like sword aura suddenly disappeared, leaving only the dark black sword blade, and there was no previous aura.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, the two swords were both pointing at each other's throats, the difference was that Ouyang Zipeng only needed to advance a little, and the blade would penetrate his throat at any time, on the other hand, Ouyang Zipeng's long sword was slightly inferior.

What the hell happened? How did Li Xiao do it? What did Li Xiao do in the moment just now? Could it really be just a coincidence?

For a while, countless questions surrounded Cangxing Yu's brain, and no matter how much he wanted to break his head, he couldn't get an answer.

"Brother Ouyang, I'm afraid, this game is a tie again. ”

Li Xiao said expressionlessly.

"Hmph, in my dictionary, there is no draw, if you lose, you lose, you have to kill or chop, listen to it. ”

Ouyang Zipeng's eyes showed an unspeakable loss, and he said with some discouragement, as if this was the last time he planned to die.

"Brother Ouyang, why are you doing this?"

Li Xiao said helplessly.

"Hmph, you are the one who is high, and the position of the sword god is also you, so you can naturally show an insignificant face. But I can't. ”

Ouyang Zipeng gritted his teeth a little unwillingly and said.

"Hey, Brother Ouyang, you have really become a lot, is it just because of such a title? You know, I have never liked these fearless titles, just to pursue kendo wholeheartedly. ”

Li Xiao said helplessly.

"It's useless to talk too much, let's do it. ”

Ouyang Zipeng had already withdrawn the sword in his hand, closed his eyes, as if he was just begging for death, and said in a deep voice.

"Well, you go, you know, I can't do anything about you. ”

Li Xiao accepted the long sword with some disappointment, and turned around to leave.

"If you don't kill me, I will kill you one day. ”

Ouyang Zipeng saw that Li Xiao didn't mean to kill him, and said with some anger, and walked in the opposite direction of Li Xiao, and finally disappeared into the desert of flying sand and rocks.

Looking at the back of Ouyang Zipeng's departure, Cang Xingyu seemed to be deeply touched, in order to pursue his own path, he would rather sacrifice, is it really worth it? Could it be that a reputation is so important?

That's right, for Cang Xingyu, isn't it the most important thing to live? As long as you can live, everything is possible, and you can die wholeheartedly for the way you want, such an awareness, at least, the current Cang Xingyu does not have it.

"You saw it all?"

Li Xiao seemed to be talking to himself, facing the front, and said with emotion?

Just when Cangxingyu was distracted, Li Xiao suddenly spoke, but Ouyang Zipeng had already left, who was Li Xiao talking to? Could it be him?

"No need to guess, I know, you've been watching. ”

Li Xiao said with a smile, a little to himself.

"Seniors know about my existence?"

Cangxing Yu said with some disbelieving.

"You know it from the moment you came in. ”

Li Xiao said with his eyes still looking ahead.

It didn't take long for Cangxingyu to be separated from Li Xiao's body, looking at Li Xiao's thin back, Cangxingyu didn't know what to say for a while.

"What do you want to say?"

Li Xiao didn't care, his eyes were still looking ahead, and he said with his back to Cang Xingyu.

"Senior, I don't know what the relationship is with Ouyang's senior?"

Cang Xingyu seemed to think of something, and said respectfully.

"It's a bit of a long story, and you young people nowadays don't know if you're interested in listening to it. ”

Li Xiao said with some emotion.

"Senior, I'm willing to listen. ”

Cang Xingyu looked at Li Xiao's back and said seriously.

"That's been a lot of years in the past, Brother Ouyang and I were passers-by, but we pursued the way of the sword wholeheartedly, and came together, since then, we have been like brothers, discussing the way of the sword with each other, although there have been a lot of differences, and finally no one is convinced, after the fight, they are brothers again. ”

Li Xiao seemed to have been silent in his memories, and there was a trace of confusion in his eyes looking ahead, and then said.

"We slashed the enemy all the way, pursued the way of the sword, and left traces of us all the way, but we didn't know that at that time, we were already famous, in the eyes of mortals, we were already gods, but no one knew, that was just the beginning of us. ”

"Since then, he has been named the sword god by the world, but there can only be one person in the position of the sword god on the side, I am on par with Brother Ouyang, and it is naturally difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, I don't care about these fame and fortune, I just want to be successful in my lifetime, however, Brother Ouyang doesn't think so, after that, Brother Ouyang gradually, changed a person, no longer as hot as before, and I discussed the way of the sword, and even, the words began to become less. ”

"At first, I thought that Brother Ouyang was just a physical problem, so I didn't have a deep understanding, but I didn't know that at that time, there was already an insurmountable gully between us, and it was only later that I realized that he always believed that the only person who stood in his way was me, and only if he really defeated me, could he be called a sword god. ”

"Since then, Brother Ouyang has been fighting with me for various reasons, but he has caused me to die, for this reason, I have also been angry with him, but he didn't care, just said, on the battlefield, there is no affection, only the enemy and the sword in his hand, no wonder, at that time I was also in the prime of life, so I fought with him. ”

"That battle, fought for a day and a night, and in the end it only ended with a lack of physical strength and a draw, since then, Brother Ouyang only threw down one sentence, next time, when we meet again, it will be the enemy, and it will disappear into the night. ”

"However, I still pursue kendo wholeheartedly, but I don't know that outsiders have long rumored that I defeated Ouyang Zipeng and won the position of sword god. ”

"Maybe they don't know that I didn't fight to defend this title, but, I didn't want to lose, in the eyes of outsiders, that is, I care about its title, for this, I have also stood up and explained, but unfortunately, I can't argue. ”

"And only I can understand that the so-called sword god is not a title for them? The world is so big, how dare I call myself a sword god? In desperation, I stayed away from the local area, pursued my sword, and finally found the true way of the sword in my lifetime. ”

"The Sword Dao of the Burning Flame is the way of my epiphany in this life, therefore, others call me the Burning Flame Sword God, however, Brother Ouyang also has his own understanding, he has an epiphany of a sword in heaven and earth, and he kills in a line for thousands of miles. Brother Ouyang's obsession with kendo is not much worse than mine, perhaps, what he lacks is his heart. ”

Li Xiao said, with a long sigh, Cang Xingyu did not rush to interrupt Li Xiao's words, but listened quietly.

"Dare to ask the seniors, I don't know what kind of cultivation is now?"

Cang Xingyu suddenly thought of something and said.

"My cultivation, I remember, in my lifetime, I was only at the peak of the Xuanming Realm. ”

Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then said.

"Xuanming Realm, it's impossible, I think the cultivation of my predecessors is also above Vientiane. ”

Cang Xingyu looked at Li Xiao in surprise and said, indeed, from the perspective of the first battle, Li Xiao can't just be in the Xuanming Realm, why?

"Haha, above all things?

Li Xiao suddenly laughed out loud and asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it?"

Cang Xingyu did not answer Li Xiao's question directly, but asked rhetorically.

"What do you think is above all things?"

Li Xiao turned his head, looked at Cang Xingyu, and said with a kind face.

"What is above all things?"

Cangxing Yu muttered in his mouth, within his cognition, the realm of turbidity should be washed with dust, wash away the turbid things in the body, and then the qi of heaven and earth can be drawn into the body, and then the realm of the pulse is used, and the qi of heaven and earth is stored in the body to form Xuanliu Qi, and then the power of the gods in the realm of Xuanming is beyond the line of sight, and then, the realm of Vientiane is integrated into its body and becomes a part of the body.

"The younger generation is stupid, and the sword path that originated from the seniors is unheard of, and can only be defined above Vientiane, but I don't know what is above Vientiane. ”

Cang Xingyu also said truthfully, for him, he didn't really know much.

"Haha, in my lifetime, I may not be able to know what kind of realm is above Vientiane, not to mention, I am now just a wisp of residual memory. ”

Li Xiao first laughed, and then said generously.

"However, I still don't understand that the peak of the Xuanming Realm or even the Vientiane Realm is impossible to reach the destructive power of the predecessors. ”

Cang Xingyu personally felt that the murderous aura of that sword flow, even if the master was present, it was impossible to avoid it intact, you know, the realm of the master that Cang Xingyu knew, but the Vientiane Realm, however, Li Xiao only said that he was only the peak of the Xuanming Realm, and he had not even reached the Vientiane Realm, and what was even more strange was that in the face of Ouyang Zipeng's oncoming sword blade and substantial killing intent, Li Xiao just gently raised the sword, what did he do at that time?

"I know you have a lot of questions, and even now, you don't understand how that sword is done, right?"

Li Xiao no longer looked at Cang Xingyu, and continued to stare ahead and said.

"I also invited the seniors, but the wishes of the younger generations. ”

Cang Xingyu said respectfully.

"For others, cultivation is important, but they have forgotten that all things are only one, this is also the avenue of epiphany in my lifetime, I will simply say to you, if you have a very heavy sword, hold it in your hand, but you don't have the strength to wield it, does it give rise to a sense of powerlessness, however, when you have the power to wield this heavy sword, do you feel that this sword is just like this, very light, can not exert half of the power you have, and give it up and replace it with a more satisfactory sword?"

Li Xiao didn't look back, but asked Cangxing Yu, who was facing his back.

"Yes. ”

Cang Xingyu replied truthfully, indeed, for people, while chasing power, it is inevitable that there will be some abandonment, and what is not good and not good can be thrown away, which seems to be nothing wrong.

"Therefore, you will never understand that if the strength is determined by the realm, then the weight of the sword is determined by the exercises, and when you continue to grow your strength, you forget, and only you can feel it, the sword has become lighter, and the weight of the sword is still the original weight. ”

Li Xiao said this, and did not continue, as if to give Cang Xingyu time to think.

"The weight of the sword is still the same as before. ”

Cang Xingyu muttered in his mouth, and didn't rush to say anything, yes, yes, Cang Xingyu did forget this while chasing power, just like that heavy sword, he felt that it had become lighter, and if he didn't have the strength, he could change it to a more satisfactory sword, so that he could exert the power he wanted, because his strength was enough to swing a heavier sword, which matched the power he had.

"However, you have forgotten that in the process of abandonment, some of you are only the weight of the sword, but you have forgotten your own amount, a person's strength is limited, just like the qi of heaven and earth in the body is also limited, when the strength is exhausted, it can be replenished through sleep and diet, and the qi of heaven and earth in the body is exhausted, so it must be absorbed through meditation, in that way, should you consider how to perfectly release the killing blow under the limited strength and the qi of heaven and earth, this is the point. ”

Li Xiao continued.

"So, back to the original question, the weight of the sword is still the original weight, it's not that it's lighter, but that you use it more skillfully, if the same sword, the same weight, is held by two different people, it will be another picture, then, you who are skilled in using this sword, but others can be beautiful?"

"The seniors want to tell the juniors that no matter how good the sword is, it is not as good as a piece of iron in its hand, so that it can better exert its power, right? ”

Cang Xingyu said understandingly.

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've seen such an open-minded young man, if I'm still alive, maybe I'll accept you as my disciple. ”

Li Xiao seemed to have not met someone who chatted so happily for a long time, and said happily to Cang Xingyu.
