Volume 1 Origin Chapter 191 Sword Dao Realm
The sky above the Silver Moon Forest, as in the past, the sun rises and the moon sets, but it cannot illuminate this primeval forest covered with ice and snow all year round.
This is already the fifth day and night that Xiang Yun and Luo He have set off from the cave of the blue-eyed red flame lion.
In the dense forest, which was already two thousand miles away from the southeast of the Beast Emperor Mountain, two figures quickly shuttled through the snow forest!
The two of them rushed one after the other, running quickly and rushing overnight!
While passing through a low shrub, suddenly, from a large tree in front of the two of them to the right!
A black shadow swooped down in an instant, let out a sharp hiss that made the heart tremble, and flew towards the head of the first of the two, flying away!
In this regard, the person running in front of him did not stop, facing the black shadow falling from the sky, the latter suddenly raised his dantian qi, the cloud power operated, and a majestic force was poured into his hands!
The latter's left fist was like a dragon going out to sea, and it suddenly blasted out, only to hear the sound of a dragon's groan in the void, and an invisible wave of qi burst out violently, hitting the black shadow in the void!
The moment the two came into contact, the black shadow suddenly stiffened, and the originally extremely fast figure suddenly reduced its speed, and at the same time, the figure of the person who punched turned around, and his right hand turned over behind his back, and he pulled out the long sword in his bag!
"Qiang ......!"
But seeing that man's arm moved slightly, the sword light flashed, and the cold light came out of the sheath!
I didn't see how this person wielded the long sword, but I felt a violent wind passing through, and the black shadow in the void had been cut into seven or eight sections, and blood was spilled on the earth!
Immediately, the two of them did not stop, and continued to run, and in the branches of the big tree above their heads, there were black shadows running down from time to time, and the person in front was still a punch and a sword, and he was killed in an instant!
The two ran all the way for more than ten miles, and finally found a cave to hide, they skillfully closed the cave entrance, cleaned the cave, lit a fire and set up a frame, and roasted the cloud beast meat!
There is no doubt that these two people have rushed all the way here, Xiang Yun and Luohe.
After experiencing the danger of the hundred-eyed corpse insect, the two of them rested in the cave for two days in a row, Xiang Yun recovered from his injuries, and Luohe finally survived the backlash!
The two of them made a decision on the second night, that they would travel overnight, resting for two hours a day, and spending all the rest of the time on the road.
They want to get out of danger as quickly as possible, after all, the cloud beast in the depths of the Silver Moon Forest is too strong, if they accidentally encounter one, it will be an extremely dangerous thing!
Of course, it is not easy to travel overnight, cloud beasts have always liked to be nocturnal, and dark nights are often more dangerous than day.
However, Xiang Yun has the Turtle Breath Gong, and Luohe also has the blessing of the secret method, and both of them can perfectly restrain their own momentum, which makes the night rush of the two smoother.
With Luohe guiding them along the way, the two of them were cautious, hurried and hurried, and it took three days to finally get away from the depths of the Silver Moon Forest, the most dangerous central area, and enter the relatively safe central zone.
Coming to this area, the pressure on Xiang Yun and Luohe was finally greatly reduced.
Although the density of cloud beasts has increased when they come to the central region, compared to the deep layers of the Silver Moon Forest, where they are often powerful general-level cloud beasts, the level of cloud beasts here is undoubtedly much lower.
Most of the cloud beasts in this range are cultivating at the priest level, just like the dozens of low-level cloud beasts that Xiang Yun killed tonight, called 'Wind Sparrow'.
These wind sparrows are only six clouds of cultivation at the highest, and they like to hide in the branches of large trees with dense foliage at night to sneak up on their prey.
Of course, tonight they were not very lucky, not only did they not succeed in the sneak attack, but they all became the ghosts of the sword.
Luo He leaned on the stone wall of the cave behind him and walked to the stone pier next to the bonfire and sat down.
Looking at the opposite side holding the dragon sword in his hand, he kept slowly gesturing in his hand, sometimes piercing, sometimes teasing, and sometimes chopping! Xiang Yun, who seemed to be pondering the sword move, smiled and spoke.
"Brother Wei, the speed at which you come out with your sword today is one percent faster than usual, and your progress is not small!"
Hearing this, Xiang Yun woke up from his focused study, he looked at Luohe, and said excitedly.
"Brother Luohe, you are really amazing, I listened to your opinion last time, I no longer stick to the connection between sword moves, I take advantage of the situation, and the speed and power of the sword seem to have improved a lot!"
Along the way, the two of them continued to avoid cloud beasts at first, until they came to the middle of the Silver Moon Forest, first, the cloud beasts were too dense and difficult to avoid, and second, among these cloud beasts, there were some low-level existences.
Therefore, sometimes when the two of them meet some low-level cloud beasts head-on, Xiang Yun will also choose to solve it, on the other hand, it is also to verify his current strength.
To Xiang Yun's surprise, now as a six-cloud martial artist, with the true qi of the Heavenly Dragon, with his bare hands, he could actually defeat the seven-cloud beast.
You must know that with the strength of the cloud beast's body, the Seven Cloud Cloud Beast, even some human warriors at the beginning of the Yellow Cloud Beast, although they can deal with it, they also feel that it is very tricky, and they can only be killed by releasing cloud power.
If you are close to the latter, you may capsize in the gutter, and it is possible to be killed!
And now Xiang Yun, if he uses the Dragon Sword and uses the Wind Quick Sword move, relying on the benefits of the moves, Xiang Yun can not even be too laborious. Killing some Seven Cloud Cloud Beasts, this kind of cross-level combat power is undoubtedly extremely amazing!
And after these two short days, Xiang Yun's strength, especially the progress in swordsmanship, is undoubtedly more prominent, making his combat power improve again!
In addition to Xiang Yun constantly killing cloud beasts and honing his moves, what is more important is Luo He's few words to him!
The latter told Xiang Yun that when he was asked to use the sword, he couldn't pay too much attention to the use of sword moves, let alone copy a whole set of swordsmanship and treat it as a redundant mess!
Instead, it should be broken up, kneaded, one by one, little by little!
Practice the essence of each move, let your muscles give birth to memory, and automatically perform the most appropriate move at the most appropriate moment, so that you can give full play to the true effect of swordsmanship!
Otherwise, with Xiang Yun's set of swordsmanship that is quite clever and unique in Luo He's opinion, it will lose its true power!
Xiang Yun listened to Luohe's words and was quite touched, although the power of the Wind Fast Sword was powerful, but whenever Xiang Yun was in battle against the enemy, he would feel constrained.
He always subconsciously casts it in the order of one hundred and eight moves of the Wind Quick Sword, which has a sense of redundancy that cannot be dropped.
So, in the next time, Xiang Yun really began to study the moves and styles in the Tempest Quick Sword, as Luo He suggested.
He practiced each pose a hundred times to impress it more deeply in his mind, and at the same time familiarize his muscles with each movement!
Xiang Yun frantically practiced sword moves, but in just three days of practice, there were some results, when facing the enemy, although Xiang Yun still couldn't, like an arm and finger to control the dragon sword, he used his sword moves as he wanted.
But in many cases, he can instinctively deliver a sword move, although it is not connected to the previous formula, but it is like a stroke of genius, wonderful, and achieves unexpected results!
Just today, Xiang Yun's sword became faster and more mellow than before, and although he was tired from a fight, he felt hearty!
So as soon as he returned to the cave, Xiang Yun directly began to study the sword move again!
Hearing Xiang Yun's thanks, Luo He waved his hand and smiled: "This is all the result of your own comprehension and cultivation, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
Immediately, he said: "Brother Wei, you don't have to be so anxious to cultivate desperately, cultivation is not something that can be succeeded by blindly cultivating hard, and this is even more true of swordsmanship!"
"Brother Wei might as well discuss with me tonight, how about using the sword?"
"Kendo, what is kendo?"
This was tantamount to a fantasy for Xiang Yun, but he nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Because he found that the Luohe River in front of him was quite mysterious, and the latter's vision and insight were even more profound.
The so-called learning is not in order, the master is the teacher, and a few words of the latter have benefited him a lot, and he must have benefited a lot from being able to discuss kendo with this kind of person!
At that moment, in a cave in the Silver Moon Forest, by a warm bonfire, the two sat opposite each other, and started a discussion on the topic of swords.
In fact, it is more a discussion than a teaching, and it is Luo He's own understanding of kendo, and the teaching of Xiang Yun, a 'layman' in kendo.
"Brother Wei, do you know that there are realms in cultivation, and there are also high and low levels in the way of the sword, and no matter how high or low the cultivation is, the way of the sword has its own realm?"
Xiang Yun shook his head blankly, and Luo He continued to speak.
"There are three realms of swordsmanship, there is a sword in the hand, there is a sword in the heart, it is said that the unity of the sword is the first realm!"
There is no sword in the hand, there is a sword in the heart, killing people invisibly, is the second realm. ”
"There is no sword in the hand, there is no sword in the heart, and the soldier who surrenders without force is the third realm!"
"Man and sword are one!"
Xiang Yun is very familiar with these four words, in Jin Yong's martial arts, those martial arts warriors who use swords seem to have to reach this realm in order to become top swordsmen!
"What is the unity of man and sword?" Xiang Yun wanted to know what it was like to reach this realm.
"The so-called unity of man and sword is actually a 'sword intent'!"
"The sword is the king of weapons, and there are so many warriors in the world who use swords, but how many people can really enter the hall and get its essence?"
Speaking of this, Luo He's complexion suddenly became solemn, and from the inside out, he released a powerful momentum!
This is his own momentum, and it is also the momentum condensed by the tenacity in his heart!
"The so-called entering the house, that is, the person who uses the sword, is not only stuck in the subtlety and mystery of the moves, but realizes the true meaning of the sword path he takes!"
"It's a fast sword, it has to be extremely fast, like a storm, thunder and lightning!"
"It's a tricky sword, it's going to be unpredictable, and it's going to turn in a flash, although heaven and earth can't be spied on!"
"It is the sword of a gentleman, it must be heroic and righteous for a long time, the sword qi is like a rainbow, magnificent, like drinking the water of a river, turbidity and clear!"
"It's a bloodthirsty sword, it must be unstoppable, cut off the anger with the sword qi, extinguish the aura with the murderous qi, and the sword will bleed for thousands of miles, and the corpse will be under the sword!"
This kind of artistic conception, whoever can glimpse the fur of its sword, is regarded as the unity of human sword, and has 'sword intent' in his heart!
"Shhhh......h
Listening to Luo He's sonorous and powerful emphasis, and constantly saying those passionate words like thunder, Xiang Yun actually felt stirred in his heart and trembled!
If the first 'sword intent' realm already has this power, then how mysterious the second realm should be!
But seeing Luo He's passionate expression, he continued: "There is no sword in his hand, but there is a sword in his heart, which is the second realm, which can be called the 'Sword Heart Realm'!"
"There are three levels of sword heart, one is 'Tongming', the second is 'Cave Void', and the third is 'Wuxuan'!"
"Anyone who has reached the realm of the sword heart is expected to set foot on the avenue of the sword, that is, the third 'sword soul' realm of the first sword! At that time, the sword turned into nothingness, melted into one's body, and every gesture was a sword that changed the color of heaven and earth!"
"Whew......!"
Xiang Yun only felt that his breathing had become a little stagnant, and looking at the long sword placed beside him, his heart was also unconsciously excited.
In this life, you will have the opportunity to set foot in this 'Sword Soul' realm, and at that time, you can also change the color of heaven and earth!
Xiang Yun suddenly remembered that in Jin Yong's "The Condor Heroes" he had watched, Dugu had left a letter to someone who was destined to be defeated.
It seems to have been mentioned above that his own kendo experience, the latter can be called the first person in kendo, so what is the extent of his kendo cultivation?
Xiang Yun thought about it right now, and after confirming it here in Luohe, he said.
"Brother Luohe, I met a kendo senior in my hometown, and he once told me that his kendo experience, I don't know what kind of realm he has reached?"
Luo He nodded and said indifferently: "You can tell me about it." ”
