Eleventh section, sword intent
Half a year ago, when Pu Yizi was alive, he told Si Dao that "goodness is like water".
Water nourishes all things without asking for anything in return, does not compete with all things for favor and profit, and does not take the credit for nourishing all things. Because there is no dispute, there is no fault in the water. Because you can't fight, you can't fight with it.
Si Dao does not fully understand the true meaning of "goodness is like water". However, he somewhat understood how to get along with sword intent.
Since then, Si Dao has no longer competed with sword intent. He minimizes the emotions of resistance. The sword intent seemed to be able to feel the change in Si Dao, and he was no longer as hostile to Si Dao as before.
Rao is like this, Si Dao has never been able to live in peace with the sword intent, let alone understand the essence of the sword intent. Although he has always practiced swordsmanship, he has always been good at swordsmanship more than swords. He has no strong attachment to the sword itself. Therefore, when the word sword intent was placed in front of him, Si Dao was initially confused.
In Si Dao's opinion, the endless sword intent in Sword Mountain was like a group of ignorant children. Children are pure, both evil and good. In the eyes of children, good and evil are stripped away as two straight lines that never intersect. However, the definition of good and evil is not clear. Children tend to use their own preferences to deviate and amplify what they think is good and evil.
From the perspective of the sword intent, everything inside the sword mountain is interesting. However, mortal things could not resist the invasion of sword intent at all. The play of sword intent is fatal to life.
Now, Si Dao is standing outside the village of Jianshan. The sword intent wrapped around him, moving with the current. Compared to before, the current Si Dao has been able to live in peace with Sword Intent.
Although he still didn't know how to awaken the sword intent, he already had a deeper understanding of the sword intent.
The Sword Mountain is filled with all kinds of sword intent, strong or weak. The weak sword intent is about the same as the will of a Qi refining cultivator. The powerful sword intent is even more powerful than Pu Yizi, and there is a sense of vastness at the level of heaven and earth. Although, each sword intent has its own strength and weakness, and each has its own unique operating rules. However, the same thing is that Sword Intent likes to be tempted.
Learning from each other and testing each other, this is the normal life of Sword Intent on weekdays. In the eyes of normal monks, the temptation of sword intent is full of danger. But in fact, the sword intent is not killing intent. Without being disturbed by itself, the sword intent did not really want to kill other beings. In Sword Mountain, the way for sword intent to play and communicate with each other is to collide with each other. In the perception of sword intent, such a play will not hurt your life.
Si Dao's will is not very strong, but it is not weak either. If it was just a temptation, most of the sword intent would not be able to hurt Si Dao. Si Dao could easily push the sword intent away.
After a few temptations, the sword intent no longer continued to try to probe into Si Dao's body. Sword Intent knew that Si Dao's will did not welcome other sword intents into Si Dao's body. In this way, the sword intents will not force it. They will treat the priest as if they were of the same kind and ignore it.
However, occasionally, a small number of sword intent domineering, after a few fruitless attempts, will become sharper and want to tear apart Si Dao's body. Under normal circumstances, the domineering sword intent is often stronger. The situation of the priest will be very dangerous. He needed to run to the village of Jianshan quickly.
Other than that, Sword Intent doesn't seem to have much memory. The next time they meet, all the sword intents will still test Si Dao. Or perhaps, the sword intent that Si Dao encounters is different every time. After all, there were as many sword intents in Sword Mountain as there were water in the sea, and Si Dao couldn't discern the difference between sword intents at all.
Under the method of will perception, Si Dao could only feel the existence of the sword intent, but he could not really see the form of the sword intent. More than ten years ago, the reason why Si Dao could see the form of sword intent was entirely because of the power of Jiang Yichen's realm. Under the power of Jiang Yichen's realm, the rules of the world were modified, and Si Dao appeared in the Sword Mountain as a soul.
At that time, he could clearly see the form of the sword intent. At that time, he met the Allure Sword. Although Allure Sword doesn't say anything, he is sensible and well-behaved, and he always pleases Si Dao. In contrast, although the Chengying Sword was much stronger, it barely interacted with Si Dao. Figuratively speaking, the Shadow Sword is similar to business partners, although they accept each other, they do not get together for a drink for no reason. Allure Sword is a friend. The priest can tell his heart to him.
It's just that in the realm of killing prisons, Si Dao didn't protect his friends. The Allure Sword was always unwilling to succumb to Wang Yixie of Jiujiang County, and was finally refined. The body of the sword is the storage of sword intent. The sword body is destroyed, and the sword intent can no longer exist.
Thinking back to the past of the Prison Killing Realm, Si Dao's thoughts couldn't help but change. Black fire came out of him. The surrounding sword intents felt hostile and retreated one after another, revealing their sharp side.
Originally, in this case, Si Dao should have left immediately. However, Sidao did not do so. He wanted to give it a try, and he wanted to play with the sword intent formally.
Sword intent is pure sharp will. If he didn't appreciate the sharpness of the sword intent, Si Dao couldn't really feel the true sword intent at all.
Looking at the sword intents around him, Si Dao released black fire and pointed at one of the sword intents. He can't be an enemy of all sword intents. In that way, he will be devoured by the sword intent.
However, he could choose one of the sword intents as his opponent. The sword intent felt Si Dao's battle intent and flew forward. The rest of the sword intents retreated one after another, creating an airspace for the two of them to fight.
Immediately after, without any opening statement, the sword intent stabbed sharply towards Si Dao, and there was no longer the slightest gentleness just now.
The speed at which the sword intent struck was extremely fast. Without the support of spiritual power, although Si Dao could see the movement of the sword intent, he was unable to keep up with the movements of his body. He surrounded himself with black fire, and then stretched out his hands to try to grasp the sword intent.
However, Sword Intent was more proficient in combat than he had imagined. Si Dao couldn't grasp the sword intent at all. He is like a clumsy elephant, helpless against the rats under his feet.
Soon, Si Dao raised his hand and surrendered. Sword intent won, looking very happy. The other sword intents around were equally happy. Then, everything goes back to the way it was before. All sword intents are no longer hostile to Si Dao. It's such a bunch of forgetful kids.
Suddenly, Si Dao had a thought.
Previously, he swallowed the Yihua into his body, which was equivalent to integrating a sword intent into his body. At that time, through the effect of the Yihua, the sword intent had completely lost its vitality and became pure white and harmless, and it was impossible to launch a terrible attack on Si Dao at all. So, what would happen if he accepted the true sword intent into his body?
There is no doubt that the sword intent enters the body, and any action it makes will cause harm to Si Dao. Even, if you are not careful, the sword intent will directly kill Si Dao.
However, only in this case could Si Dao truly see the form of the sword intent. At that time, Si Dao's body became a container, containing both his own will and sword intent. At that time, Si Dao's will and sword intent tended to be equal, and they became some kind of similar existence.
Only in this case can Si Dao truly understand the sword intent and comprehend the true meaning of awakening other wills.
Si Dao didn't hesitate any longer. He extended an invitation to the winning sword intent. The winning sword intent did not refuse, slowly approached Si Dao, and then directly entered Si Dao's body.
At this moment, the priest opened the door to a new world. His conjecture was correct.
