Chapter 29: The Theory of Kendo
"At a young age, a young man is only a cultivator of the upper level in the late stage of the initial realm, not only cultivating into a sword of 'gathering qi and transforming gang', but also reaching such an unfathomable realm of 'unity of man and sword', which is really not simple!"
Luo Zhen stroked his beard lightly, and praised with emotion, "I think that back then, the founder of our Peace Dart Bureau, that is, the old grandfather, the old man who was called 'One Sword Chonghe' by the people of the rivers and lakes, was also nearly 100 years old, and gradually reached the realm of 'unity of man and sword', and then with the help of such a profound and mysterious realm, Fang Cai combined the thirty-six styles of 'Chonghe Sword Technique', and finally created the 'White Rainbow Through the Sun' style of top-level swordsmanship martial arts!" ”
"Martial arts practice, carrying forward the past and forging ahead into the future, and integrating and penetrating, is indeed not easy!"
Yun Yiyang seemed to be moved, and he couldn't stop shaking his head again and again!
Seeing this situation, Yun Yitian couldn't help but glance at Yun Yifan again, and then said: "It is indeed not easy for people and swords to be one!"
After a brief pause, he continued, "However, do you know that in fact, this 'unity of man and sword' also has a different realm? ”
"Different realms?" Yun Yifan couldn't help but be curious, and looked at Yun Yitian carefully.
The rest of the people also looked at Yun Yitian with anticipation.
"Exactly." Yun Yitian smiled faintly and said, "The unity of human and sword can be divided into three realms, namely the sword realm, the sword realm, and the sword realm. ”
"Two Sword Realms?" Yun Yifan asked a little puzzled.
The expressions of the others were also slightly puzzled.
"Definitely." Yun Yitian smiled faintly and explained, "This 'royal' is not the other's 'control'-
"The so-called 'control' of the second layer of the sword realm is the one who controls it, and it takes a lot of effort for those who want to be on top.
"The so-called 'royal' of the third-layer imperial sword realm is an imperial envoy, such as the arm finger, it is obviously not as draining as the previous 'control'."
Yun Yifan nodded slightly, and said a little as if he didn't understand: "In other words, the 'unity of human and sword' is divided into three layers, the first layer is called the 'Sword Realm', the second layer is called the 'Sword Realm', and the third layer is called the 'Imperial Sword Realm'?" ”
The rest of the people also looked like each other.
Seeing this, Yun Yitian smiled slightly, and continued to explain: "That's right.
"In detail—
"The first layer of 'human and sword unity' sword realm can also be called 'sword unity'.
"The one who refutes the sword, refutes the sword with strength, and the sword goes in no way.
"The power of this is the internal power of the martial arts, and the spiritual power of the cultivation is the power of true qi.
"The art of bargeing the sword is the technique of using the power of true qi to attract and control the sword, and the martial arts are generally called 'catching the dragon and controlling the crane', and the cultivation is generally called the 'primer technique'.
"In the martial arts, 'capturing the dragon and controlling the crane' is actually a top-level martial art technique of the day after tomorrow, but in the path of cultivation, the 'primer technique' is only an acquired middle-level spell.
"As we all know, the martial arts have reached the perfection of the first state of the day after tomorrow, and the internal skills have been 'Shen Qi Formation' and then 'Returning to the Void Ming', and before that, it is necessary to comprehend and achieve the 'Internal Skill Artistic Conception', but if you want to practice martial arts such as 'Capturing the Dragon and Controlling the Crane', you must take the internal skills of 'Divine Qi Formation' and then 'Returning to the Empty Vision' as the foundation.
"It is said that in the martial arts, the most amazing and brilliant people can achieve the internal attainments of 'artistic conception' at the beginning of the middle stage of the first realm, and even further achieve the 'spirit and qi together'!
"However, if you want to 'return to the Void Vision', you need to at least reach the early level of the Primordial Realm, so that it is possible.
"And if you want to practice 'Capturing the Dragon and Controlling the Crane', you must achieve the internal skill attainment of 'Divine Qi Formation' and then 'Returning to Empty Brightness', that is, you can practice it at the earliest with the skills of the early realm and the late stage of the first layer."
Speaking of this, Yun Yitian couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan, and after a brief pause, Yun continued to smile lightly, "For example, Senior Brother Yifan, you have already reached the internal skill attainment of 'Divine Qi Formation' and then 'Returning to Empty Brightness' not long after you first came to the early stage of the Primordial Realm—presumably at that time, you had already practiced the "Cloud Whisk Gong" attached to the "Cloud Mind Method", the top-level martial arts of the genus of "Catching the Dragon and Controlling the Crane", right?" ”
"Exactly." Yun Yifan smiled slightly, nodded and replied.
Hearing this, Long Xiuyuan and Yun Yiyang had already known about it, but they didn't have any obvious reactions.
However, Luo Zhen, Luo Bai and Luo Xiang were all shocked, and couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan steadily, and their hearts were "fluctuating......
Yun Yitian didn't care too much, so he just continued to preach calmly: "But it is said that on the way to cultivation, usually when you first reach the early stage of the middle stage of the acquired qi refining, you have already already achieved the artistic conception of internal strength.
"Of course, the artistic conception of internal strength is also the premise of cultivating the path to reach the middle and early stage of the acquired qi refining.
"And with this kind of practice, you can begin to practice and master the 'primer technique'.
"Cultivating the way, cultivating the true and cultivating the Tao, seizing the essence of heaven and earth, and drawing the qi of heaven and earth for one's own use, it is true that it is strange and mysterious and not the same way as martial arts!
"However, whether it is martial arts or cultivation, if you want to reach the first level of the 'unity of man and sword', that is, to achieve the 'unity of sword', you must first have the internal attainment of 'god and qi'.
"At the same time, it is necessary to practice the 'dragon control crane' or 'primer technique' to above the artistic conception, and then reach a certain realm through the perception of the way of the sword, so that you can finally achieve the sword realm of the first level of 'unity of man and sword' at the most basic level."
"I see." When Luo Zhen heard this, he suddenly realized, "Twenty-one years ago, the ancestor had reached the peak of the initial realm for several years, and his internal strength had already reached the 'divine condensation' and then 'returned to simplicity', and the thirty-six styles of 'Chonghe Swordsmanship' were even more supernatural for a long time, but the 'crane control gong' that he practiced was only at that time to reach the artistic conception, and this gradually reached the realm of 'unity of man and sword', presumably because of this." ”
"When it is." Yun Yitian nodded, and then continued to smile and continued: "The second layer of the 'unity of human and sword' sword realm can also be called 'unity of sword'.
"The one who controls the sword controls the sword with qi, and the sword moves with the air.
"This qi is not only pure true qi power, but also needs the injection and fusion of mind and mind, so as to use qi induction to pull and control the sword weapon.
"The art of controlling the sword, martial arts is also commonly known as 'the art of controlling weapons', and the way of cultivation is generally called 'exorcism'.
"In the martial arts, the 'art of controlling weapons' is actually an innate first-grade martial arts, but in the path of cultivation, the 'exorcism technique' is just an acquired high-level spell.
"Everyone should know that the martial arts have reached the middle level of the consummation of the initial realm of the day after tomorrow, and the internal skills have been 'God and Qi combined' and then 'returned to the Void and Ming Dacheng', and if you want to practice the 'Art of Controlling Weapons', you must take the internal skills of 'God and Qi Integration' as the foundation.
"Although it is said that among the martial arts, the most amazing and brilliant people can achieve the internal skills of 'God and Qi Integration' at the middle level of the early realm, but if you want to practice the 'art of controlling weapons', you need at least the skills of the upper level of the early realm to do it!"
Speaking of this, Yun Yitian couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan again, and asked with a faint smile, "Yesterday, I watched Senior Brother Yifan, you used the power of 'Striking the Void and Grabbing the Void', and suddenly held the sword in the air, but you used the 'Cloud Whisk Gong' that had already been superb, and you could vaguely feel that your internal strength attainments seemed to have reached the realm of 'God and Qi Integration', and presumably the junior disciple had now begun to practice the 'Skill of Controlling Weapons' attached to the 'Cloud and Sky Double Technique'. ”
"Exactly." Yun Yifan smiled slightly, and replied calmly and indifferently, "When I was able to pass on the 'Yunxiao Sword Technique' and the 'Yunxiao Marksmanship' in advance, Uncle Mei Hanying warned me in advance that in addition to achieving the 'Divine and Qi Integration' in the internal strength, it was also necessary to have at least the cultivation of the upper level in the late stage of the Initial Realm before I could practice the 'Technique of Controlling Weapons'.
"Originally, I thought that it would be a long time before I had the opportunity to cultivate the 'Art of Controlling Weapons'.
Unexpectedly, he unexpectedly won the top four in the big competition, and at the award ceremony on the ninth day of the third month, he was rewarded with a 150-year-old snow ginseng elixir.
"In the afternoon of the same day, under the care of my father, I took the elixir snow ginseng and refined it, and I was promoted from the late stage of the first realm to the upper level of the late stage of the first realm in one fell swoop.
"Moreover, my internal attainments have not only been completely improved to the limit of 'returning to the beginning of the dawn of emptiness', but also reached the realm of 'God and Qi are combined'.
"So, in the past few days since then, while consolidating and improving my cultivation, I have also cultivated this 'Technique of Controlling Weapons'."
Hearing this, Long Xiuyuan and Yun Yiyang looked at each other and smiled, and sighed in unison: "Amazing, amazing!" ”
The relationship between these two people and Yun Yifan is relatively close, and they have already learned about these situations before they set off, and they can't help but be amazed by it again, but such a reaction at this moment is just a slight feeling again.
However, Luo Zhen, Luo Bai and Luo Xiang, who were next to them, had not yet calmed down in their ups and downs, and now they couldn't help but make waves again......
Yun Yitian smiled slightly, bowed his head slightly, and then continued: "It is said that on the path of cultivation, usually when you first reach the early stage of the later stage of Qi refining, the attainment of internal strength is 'God and Qi Together'.
"Of course, the attainment of 'God and Qi's internal strength is also the premise for cultivating the Dao to reach the early stage of the later stage of Qi refining.
"And with this kind of practice, you can begin to practice and master the 'art of exorcism'.
"Cultivating the true cultivation of the Dao and directly inducing the power of heaven and earth for one's own use, it is true that it is incomparably mysterious!
"However, whether it is martial arts or cultivation, if you want to achieve the second level of 'unity of man and sword', that is, to achieve the 'unity of sword', you must first have the internal attainment of 'Three Elephants Returning to the Yuan'.
"At the same time, it is necessary to practice the 'art of mastering weapons' or 'exorcism' to the level of artistic conception, and then reach a higher realm through the perception of swordsmanship, so that we can finally achieve this second level of 'human and sword unity' sword realm.
"The third layer of 'human and sword unity' of the sword realm can also be called 'sword unity'.
"The one who fights the sword, the sword with the heart, the sword moves with the heart.
"The mind is the mind.
"As the saying goes, 'where the heart goes, where the sword goes', it is the art of the sword.
"Unlike the sword, which uses its own qi to pull the sword, and you have to be distracted from the traction, Edgeworth doesn't need too much distraction to control, and it doesn't have to consume too much qi to support the operation."
Hearing this, Yun Yiyang suddenly thought for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Senior brother one day, using the technique of 'using qi to resist things' is the so-called 'imperial sword'?" ”
"This cannot be overstated, let alone generalized." Yun Yitian smiled slightly, and said loudly, "The art of reeling the sword is the foundation of cultivating the art of sword control, and the art of sword control is the foundation of cultivating the art of sword control.
"The art of reeling the sword, refuting the sword with qi, the sword and the qi are combined, the heart is mastered, and the qi is combined, and the sword is with the heart.
"The art of controlling the sword, controlling the sword with qi, the heart and the qi are combined, the qi is the master, the sword is combined, and the sword follows the qi.
"The art of the sword, with the heart of the sword, the sword and the heart are one, the heart is one, the heart is to the sword, the sword is to the qi.
"The essence of the sword is that the heart is the main thing, the true qi is supplemented, the sword weapon is the subordinate, the heart commands, the true qi is lucky, and the sword is a line.
"The essence of the sword is that the god and the qi are combined, not the master and the slave, the spirit is the main, the sword is the auxiliary, the god is the sword luck, and the qi is the sword.
"The essence of Edgeworth lies in the unity of divine energy, the unity of god and sword, regardless of master and slave, where the mind goes, where the sword goes, and where the spirit and the sword go together.
"The sword is to use its own true qi to attract the sword weapon, just like the likes of 'capturing the dragon and controlling the crane', it takes a lot of effort and effort, and the most consumes internal force.
"The sword is to use its own qi to pull the sword, and the distraction is in the matter of traction, although the mind and true qi have been combined, and the consumption of internal force has gradually decreased, but there is still a significant loss.
"And the real Edgeworth is where the mind goes, where the sword goes, and there is no need to be too distracted to control it, and it does not need to consume too much qi to support the operation.
"Therefore, once you reach the Edgeworth realm, even if you don't use the qi machine to control the sword, the sword will fly as you like.
"Moreover, the mind and the true qi have become one, so when the sword is resisted, the consumption of internal force is very small."
Hearing this, Yun Yifan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and couldn't help asking: "Senior Brother One Day, does the so-called 'Qi Imperial Weapon' mean that although it seems to have reached the general momentum of 'Imperial Sword with Heart' in the middle of control, it is actually not a sword weapon with heart and mind, but only a sword weapon with a qi machine that combines the mind and true qi, so it is called 'Imperial Sword with Qi'?" ”
When Yun Yitian heard this question, he couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan with appreciation, and then replied with his chin bowed: "That's exactly the case above the general idea." ”
Yun Yifan asked again: "Therefore, the use of the technique of 'using qi to resist things' to make a sword, although it can barely be regarded as touching the door of the 'imperial sword', it is still not worthy of the realm of the real 'imperial sword', is this so?" ”
"So to speak." Yun Yitian nodded.
