Volume 1 Dragon and Tiger Mountain Seeking the Tao Chapter 16 Sword Intent Turns into Qi
Maybe it was because he passed the assessment, or maybe there were no monsters to peep around, so he didn't have to worry about it, Li Yuan slept soundly this night, and it can be said that he slept the most restfully in the past five hundred years.
The next morning, Li Yuan got up early, he felt that he was in excellent condition today, and it was very suitable for him to come out for morning exercises.
It is also the simplest practice of splitting, picking, and stabbing, the three basic movements that he has already practiced in the Hudi Prison.
Originally, there were no suitable tools for him to practice in prison, so Li Yuan used his hands to simulate sword practice, but now he has replaced it with a small branch, which makes him feel different.
"Woooo
Li Yuan swung out dozens of swords in an instant, and the speed of this sword was three points faster than when he cut the bamboo pole yesterday, if he was seen by that fat Taoist, he would definitely be even more surprised.
And the most outstanding thing about Li Yuan's sword is not the speed of the sword, but the sharp sword intent that has been polished after hundreds of years of tireless practice, the kind of majestic sword momentum that has almost condensed into substance.
Li Yuan naturally didn't know, if the sword intent condensed into the substance, it would be the legendary sword qi, which was already a very high achievement in the way of the sword, if it went further, it would be the peak of the sword path of the realm of the unity of heaven and man, throughout the ages in the sword path can achieve the unity of heaven and man, but a few people, all of them are not kendo masters, of course, this refers to ordinary people, the sword qi that uses spiritual power in the cultivation world is another matter.
Li Yuan seemed to have some understanding, and while swinging his sword, his eyes began to become blank, and he actually entered a state of selfless epiphany.
His sword was faster than the other, and the branches and leaves of a plane tree not far away began to shake with his swing of the sword, and by the end the branch in Li Yuan's hand was almost impossible to see.
"It's not close!"
Li Yuan had only one thought in his heart, he couldn't think at this time, but there was such a feeling in his consciousness, as if as long as he went faster, it seemed that something incredible would happen.
But no matter how hard Li Yuan tried, he couldn't make the branches go up even half a point.
It's to the limit!
That critical point is a moat, if it is crossed, then the quantitative change will form a qualitative change, and Li Yuan's sword intent will really improve.
Li Yuan's eyes were dull and he kept waving the branches, but contrary to before, at this time, he seemed to have exhausted his strength, and the speed of swinging the sword became slower and slower, and when it came to the last sword, it seemed to be like slow motion, no matter who saw it, he would feel that Li Yuan's sword was too slow, and I was afraid that even ants would not be able to cut it.
Is it really slow? No, it's the opposite, it's because it's so fast that it's impossible to see with the naked eye, like the propeller of a helicopter, and when it's too fast, it looks like it's not moving.
"Huh!"
When Li Yuan's last sword was swung, an invisible transparent piece flew out through the branch, cutting off the sycamore that was swaying in the wind, and the branch in his hand seemed to be unbearable, turning into powder in an instant!
The sword intent condenses into substance, and the sword intent turns into gas!
Li Yuan actually broke through the shackles inadvertently and practiced the legendary sword qi, of course, Li Yuan at this time didn't know what this was, he naturally thought that this was just some kind of ordinary sword move he practiced when he practiced swords, maybe except for himself, others could easily practice.
The sound of the sycamore breaking alarmed the people in the disciple's room, but since this area was for the new disciples to live in, and the old disciples were in other areas, after a while, only Dong Fatzi walked out with sleepy eyes.
Dong Fatzi wiped the hara hanging from the corner of his mouth, glanced at Li Yuan, and then at the plane tree that was cut off not far away, rubbed his eyes, and did not speak.
"The wind was a bit strong just now, and the trees were blown off. Li Yuan blinked helplessly and said slowly.
Dong Fatzi let out an "oh", he didn't care, it seemed that he wanted to go back and make up for it.
"Are you hungry?" asked Li Yuan.
"Hungry. Dong Fatzi replied in a daze.
"I don't know if there's anything delicious in this Dragon and Tiger Mountain. Li Yuan beat the snake with the stick, and added, his stomach was really hungry, and hundreds of years of breakfast habits had already formed a conditioned reflex for him, plus he finally left the prison, he would naturally be hungry for food from the outside world.
Dong Fatzi recalled, and replied after a while: "What delicious things can there be in Longhu Mountain, if it is not inconvenient, I really want to take you to the city Binyuan Building to have a special meal, the morning tea there is famous in the whole Jiangying City, crystal dumplings, and the signature big meat bun with five top ingredients, I drool when I think about it." ”
"I still prefer soy milk fritters. Li Yuan swallowed his saliva and smiled.
"Let's go, anyway, we'll be fine these days, why don't we take a stroll around the door first, see if there is anything delicious, and in the evening, I will go to the Manchu Han Mansion in the city to set it a table of Manchu and Han full seats, and celebrate for us." Dong Fatzi put one hand on Li Yuan's shoulder and said leisurely.
Li Yuan was also looking forward to it when he heard this, if he wanted to say that he had an obsession with something in his life, in addition to his own life experience, it was food, he was a pure carnivore!
"I also have this idea, and now I just have time, so it's good to get acquainted with the master. Li Yuan agreed.
After a while, the two of them left the disciple's room together and began to wander around the master's door.
"Not to mention, the scenery of our Longhu Mountain is really good, the air is good, just living here feels like living a secluded life away from the hustle and bustle. Dong Fatzi seemed to be in a good mood, and sighed while taking Li Yuan to enjoy the scenery of Longhu Mountain.
Along the way, the two of them also saw many low-level disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion who were wearing gray Taoist robes and acting in a hurry, among which there were also many young and beautiful female disciples, and both sides nodded politely or saluted after meeting.
"I originally thought that our Heavenly Master Mansion would only accept male disciples, but I didn't expect that there would be so many female disciples. Li Yuan smiled and shook his head.
Dong Fatzi glanced at him when he heard this, and said: "What era is this, you still have this kind of feudal thinking, our Heavenly Master's Mansion is a sect of cultivating immortals, and we have long abandoned the traditional idea of the difference between men and women, not only that, but I also heard that the female monks in the current Xiuzhen sect are no worse than the male monks, and we have many famous high-level female cultivators in China, such as the current sect master of the Yuexia Sect, that is, a female cultivator in the Jindan period whose reputation is no less than that of our old Heavenly Master." ”
"And among the younger generation, Jiang Ruoying, the master sister of the Confucian Academy who was named the national goddess by everyone, not only looks like a country and a city, but also is quite shocking in terms of cultivation talent, I heard that she is still a once-in-a-millennium heavenly spirit root, if you can see the pleasant demeanor of the goddess Jiang in her lifetime, I Dong Zixi can be regarded as a worthy life. Dong Fatzi muttered with an obsessive look, looking at it as if he was an infatuated son who was deeply in love.
Seeing Dong Fatzi like this, Li Yuan smiled helplessly and said, "Then the senior sister of the Confucian Academy won't be the goddess of your dreams, right?"
"Goddess Jiang is not only the goddess of my dreams, she can be said to be the idol in the minds of all the young talents of our generation, but unfortunately my talent is too poor, otherwise I must not marry Goddess Jiang. Dong Fatzi pouted unwillingly.
The two chatted while walking, and unconsciously came to the outside of the main hall located in the center of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
This is the core place of the entire Heavenly Master's Mansion, where the elders discuss matters large and small, and the Heavenly Master finally makes decisions, which can be said to be equivalent to the high-level meeting hall of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
As soon as Li Yuan came to the outside of the main hall, he would see high-level monks flying in and out from here from time to time with flying spirit tools, and that scene made Li Yuan and the others also fascinated after seeing it.
"How can you meet this tigress anywhere, it's really a narrow road. It seemed that he had seen someone from a distance, Dong Fatzi suddenly complained, and then pulled Li Yuan to leave.
But I heard a fierce woman's voice in the distance, shouting: "Dong Fatzi, are you talking bad about me behind my back again, why do you want to run away when you see it from afar?"
Looking in the direction of the voice, Li Yuan saw a beautiful woman wearing a pink dress and a ponytail, accompanied by a young Taoist priest, walking slowly towards them, that woman was the tigress Feng Yueyue that Dong Fat said he said.
"I think you two are a good match, really. Li Yuan quipped with a smile.
"The ghost is as good as her, if anyone marries this tigress, I am afraid that they will never be at peace, in addition, I only have the goddess Jiang in my heart, and I can't tolerate other women. Dong Fatzi snorted and replied.
Feng Yueyue seemed to hear Dong Fatzi's words, her little face turned slightly red, and she said angrily: "Dong Fatty, if you want to die, just say it, I won't show mercy to my subordinates this time." ”
Feng Yueyue strode up, wanting to teach Dong Fat a good lesson, but when she saw Li Yuan with a smile on his face, she was very embarrassed, and nodded at Li Yuan: "Senior brother, you are also here." ”
"Hello. Li Yuan smiled at Feng Yueyue.
"My brother's name is Li Yuan. Seeing that Feng Yueyue didn't make a move, Dong Fatzi immediately put his mind at ease and patted Li Yuan to introduce.
"Senior Brother Li. Feng Yueyue said hello again.
"These two are also junior disciples who have passed the assessment, right?" The young Taoist priest who followed behind Feng Yueyue soon came over.
"Yes, the two of them are the same batch as me who have passed the assessment, this fat man is called Dong Zixi, and the one next to him is Li Yuan. Feng Yueyue saw that the young Taoist priest also came over, and she didn't dare to introduce herself to the other party lazy, and then looked at Li Yuan and the others: "This is Senior Brother Chen." ”
"Hello senior brother. Li Yuan and the others didn't dare to be rude, and greeted each other.
Senior Brother Chen also smiled and saluted: "Two junior brothers, do you want to visit the master's door, why don't you go together?"
"Then it's troublesome Senior Brother. Li Yuan and the others replied in unison.
Next, under the leadership and explanation of Senior Brother Chen, Li Yuan and the others had a general understanding of the environment of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
The layout of this Heavenly Master's Mansion is also simple, it is arranged in a hollow shape, the main hall is located in the center, and other buildings are built around the main hall, among which the disciples' rooms are basically located in the east, and the north is the Tibetan Gong Pavilion that collects books such as exercises, scriptures, and secret books, and the functional buildings such as the martial arts field, the Dan room, the refining pavilion, the deacon hall that hands over the task, and other functional buildings are basically concentrated in the west, and the south is where the mountain gate is, and the typical layout of sitting north and facing south.
This layout seems simple, but in fact it is quite exquisite, this layout is also called Laojun Alchemy Furnace in the Feng Shui Bureau, which can gather all the surrounding luck and lock it in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so that the master will prosper for a long time.
Legend has it that this feng shui bureau is the founder of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, that is, the first generation of Heavenly Master was in this place for alchemy, when the Dan was completed, the sky was covered with dark clouds, the thunder was rolling, and the green dragon and white tiger appeared in the clouds, and the roar shook the sky, so the mountain was named Longhu Mountain, and the establishment of a gate in this place, this is the predecessor of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and the feng shui layout of the mountain gate at that time was laid out in accordance with the shape of the Dan furnace, which has been used to this day.
