The word killing and seeking the Tao is not a simple word, behind just four words, there is endless bloody rain.

If the Tao is not successful, it will be enough to die on the road, but if it is done, it will be the real Dao of Heaven forged with corpse bones, and these corpse bones cannot be ordinary people, not real swordsmanship masters, or even peerless strongmen.

As for using the lives of ordinary people to sacrifice swords, in order to hone the killing intent and accumulate murderous nature, in ancient times, there were many powerful people who used this way to hone the children of the family.

But it turns out that the swordsmanship honed in this way, although it is murderous and evil, but it is too weak, and when dealing with the weak, it may have a certain advantage, but in the face of the strong, it will collapse at the first touch.

The true meaning of killing and seeking the Tao is to seek the Tao by killing and seeking the Tao, to live towards death, and to pursue self-transcendence in the moment of life and death, so as to surpass oneself again and again and forge the strongest sword.

Of course, such a sword is also in danger of being easy to break.

Yan Huang has been around for 5,000 years, and the essence of its civilization is not blindly rigid or blindly soft, but between rigidity and softness, taking a balance and seeking a combination of yin and yang.

But the change of yin and yang is easy to say, but how difficult is it to really achieve it?!

Most people, with limited talents, want to cut through obstacles and open a way, not to go off the rails.

If you take the mean, it will only be yin and not yin, yang and not yang, and the real yin and yang are a sword, a thought, a sword, the sword road can be masculine to the extreme, but also feminine to the extreme, and even yin and yang are one, which is both the anode and the cathode, and it is a higher level.

Therefore, throughout the ages, there have been not many people who have taken the path of killing and rebirth, and even many strong people have taken this road.

reached the realm of really just passing and breaking, and directly broke his sword, and only when it was broken, can he truly affirm that he has become a rigid pole.

As for after that, there are two possibilities.

One is to abolish it, and no longer be able to wield the sword that was once as sharp.

And the other is to stand after the break, the demon becomes a Buddha, Shura puts a butcher's knife, and stands on the ground to be a bodhisattva.

This latter kind is terrifying to the extreme, from then on, there is no killing intent in the heart, and there is no killing intent in the sword, every move and style contains compassion.

But this kind of mercy is by no means weak, and the sword path will only be more lethal.

Because their sword has changed from killing for the sake of killing, to killing for the sake of protecting life, and cutting karma is not the sword of compassion for cutting people.

This is the so-called, to control the extreme rigidity with extreme softness.

And above this, it is the essence of Yanhuang's 5,000-year-old civilization, the sword of the golden mean, which combines yin and yang.

Moderation is not mediocrity, but just like the golden curve that divides yin and yang, and divides yin and yang.

This sword is a success, not only the Buddha, but also the demon ancestor, but also the Taoist ancestor, one thought of compassion, one thought of Shura, do whatever you want, no longer yin to control yang, nor yang to control yin, but "I" to control everything.

And the reason why Yanhuang in this world is so strong is that throughout the ages, there have been endless masters of swordsmanship, far beyond Yanhuang, and even more than 100 years ago, the great powers joined forces to bombard the country with artillery fire.

But then, what they faced was the westward march of 80,000 swordsmen.

Of course, these 80,000 swordsmen first swept away the Dashun established by Li Zicheng and cleaned the imperial court, but they only remembered Li Zicheng's exploits in saving Yan Huang from peril, and did not kill them all, but only killed those people who were powerful and blessed, leaving a fairly clean bloodline.

Later, under the leadership of Li Kaiyuan, the founding ancestor of the country, a new dynasty was established, and the new dynasty was a new system, but it was based on the ancient life, and the Yanhuang was the ancestor, and the name was the Yanhuang Heavenly Dynasty.

Swordsmanship is a thing that must be carried by the spirit in order to have power.

It is because Yan Huang has never had any princely generals, because even if he is a princely general, he has the best resources, but no matter how many resources he has, he can't cast a strong spirit.

It is the rotten Dashun court, facing the group of swordsmen who are determined to save the country, have extremely firm spiritual beliefs, ideals and dreams, and have no power to resist.

In the previous life, it was because it was extremely difficult for the spirit to be transformed into tangible power, which made the revolution difficult, but in this case, the spirit is power!

This is also why, the history of this world is similar to the world of the previous life, but there are many different reasons.

In history, the interior is stable, Li Kaiyuan formed a coalition of 80,000 swordsmen, relying on the stolen warships, pointing to the west, slaughtering all the way to the past, revenge, revenge.

Now Yan Huang colonizes the whole world and sucks blood from the whole world to feed himself, which has created the prosperity of Yan Huang today.

At the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the population of Yanhuang was only 40 billion, but now, it is nearly 200 billion.

However, such a huge number of people can still maintain an eight-hour work system, maintain two days off, and buy a house with a ten-year salary for ordinary people, and a five-year salary for dual-income workers.

This is the foundation laid by the original expedition to the west.

At the level of high-end force, the advantages brought by the cultural heritage are too great.

A spiritual civilization that is too short and shallow cannot produce the strongest at all.

As for the so-called supreme power, that is the name of the Western countries for the myth of Yanhuang Kendo.

After the Yuan Shen is cast, not only can he kill people in a thousand steps, but this thousand steps is not a thousand steps of ordinary people, but a thousand steps of the sword god.

It is even more possible to avoid danger without seeing it, and the ultimate weapon of destruction of civilization, the nuclear bomb, is completely ineffective against it.

In the later stages of the Western Expedition, the West had already developed a nuclear bomb, but it did not dare to use it at all.

Because no, just some treaties, if they do, then all the high-level people will ascend to heaven to see God.

The sword god is a real enemy country.

Therefore, this kind of character is called the strongest one, which is something more deterrent than a nuclear bomb.

Even if the science and technology of the West are higher than that of Yanhuang at that time, the spiritual things are by no means cold data, and their spiritual heritage of civilization cannot support the birth of the strongest.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and here, this is vividly embodied.

This backwardness is the backwardness of spiritual civilization and the evil result of too short a history.

The more powerful the kendo realm, the more it needs the support of philosophical dialectic.

Yan Huang is now vigorously promoting kendo, also because he does not dare to lag behind, the spread of knowledge is always fast, when he knows the power of the strongest, the whole world is drawing nourishment from the Yan Huang civilization.

At this time, if Yan Huang falls behind, the consequences will be unimaginable.

As for why Dashun closed the country and followed the old path of Zhao Cheng's previous life.

The reason is simple, this is the malaise of the rulers of the feudal dynasty, in fact, as early as the eighteenth century, there were exquisite muskets and exquisite steam engines in the palace.

But the rulers are not afraid of this, but think that the Western trend of thought will affect the rule.

After all, in many countries in the West, there is no such thing as an emperor.

It is to close the customs and lock the country, although there are also top masters who can cross the ocean alone.

But those people, when the domestic situation is stable, are naturally focused on swordsmanship, and there is no emperor who is in the mood to care, anyway, the emperor can't control them.

It wasn't until the Western powers swelled, Dashun also experienced hundreds of years of decay to the extreme, and there were continuous domestic natural and man-made disasters, such a turbulent year, which inspired the swordsmen's feelings for their family and country.

Later, another powerful leader was born, integrating this force, and this is the only thing that will lead to the later clearing of the country and the sweeping of the world.
