Chapter 7: Kendo III (II)
The reason why Yuan Hao Zhenren embarked on the road of cultivating truth is entirely due to his pursuit of kendo. For him, the sword is the way, the meaning of his life.
His Dao heart is the pursuit of the way of the sword! If he is made to give up the pursuit of the way of the sword, it will be absolutely impossible. Cultivating true qi is just a means for him to pursue the way of the sword.
In the long career of scattered immortals, Yuan Hao Zhenren struggled to pursue the ultimate of swordsmanship.
Cultivation has no time, and on the way to pursue the way of heaven, thousands of years have passed, but it is just a snap of a finger. Yuan Hao Zhenren dealt with the tribulation of scattered immortals once in a thousand years, and traveled all over the world, hoping to make a breakthrough.
In the process, he has made countless attempts. Whether it's the art of the sword, or the improvement of the sword itself.
It is recorded in the jade slip as follows:
"The old man is obsessed with swordsmanship, but he is like the top of the mountain, and there is no way to enter. Then he traveled all over the world, searched for classical books, and the methods of all families were confirmed and confirmed. But it will not be obtained. The art of the sword, the changes have been exhausted, and the benefits of the sword weapon are not the right way after all. In the blink of an eye, more than 8,000 years have passed! And the catastrophe of the Nine Pillars is coming, and Yu Zi feels that he cannot break through. The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, what is the pity of being a fly ash! Hate can't become the way of the sword!"
What this paragraph says is that Yuan Hao Zhenren himself feels that his pursuit of kendo has reached the peak of a high mountain, and he can no longer move forward. So he traveled around, looking for some ancient classics of cultivation, as well as some other schools of cultivation exercises for enlightenment and verification. But there is no way to break through after all. Edgeworth's changes have been exhausted, and the pursuit of sword weapons is not the right way after all. More than 8,000 years have passed like this. The ninth heavenly tribulation is about to fall, and Yuan Hao Zhenren is not sure to get through it. In my heart, I deeply regret that I can't achieve the Great Way of the Sword.
Seeing this, Li Hui sighed secretly in his heart. This Yuan Hao Zhenren's pursuit of kendo is really awe-inspiring.
However, in the last years before the Ninth Scattered Immortal Tribulation descended, Yuan Hao Zhenren finally found some fragmentary information left by the Ancient Sword Immortal in an ancient monk ruins.
This discovery gave Yuan Hao a glimmer of light.
It turned out that in ancient times, the Sword Immortal was once brilliant for a while, and he was the leader in the cultivation world. The attacks of the sword immortals were strong, and their temperaments were extremely arrogant, and at that time, monks of other schools would not easily provoke a sword immortal.
It is precisely because of the arrogance and aggressiveness of the Sword Immortal that there are often some conflicts and wars with other cultivation schools, and the Sword Immortal is not monolithic. Most of the sword immortals are arrogant and like to be alone. Eventually, the Sword Immortal slowly declined, and many of the Sword Immortal's Dharma classics were lost.
Yuan Hao Zhenren accidentally found an ancient monk ruins and found some classics about the ancient sword immortals, but most of these classics were incomplete, and it was impossible to accurately know the cultivation path taken by the sword immortals at that time.
However, it was this bit of information that made Yuan Hao really ecstatic. So he plunged headlong into the study of the way of the ancient sword immortal.
Yuan Hao Zhenren is such an amazing and brilliant person, he can rely on his own strength, refer to some basic immortal cultivation exercises, and create the "Five Elements Reincarnation Technique" such anti-heaven exercises. It can also integrate secular martial arts and swordsmanship into the method of cultivating the sword, and dominate the world. After years of contemplation, I finally deduced the cultivation path of the ancient sword immortals from these scattered classics.
The result of the inference made Yuan Hao real people sad and happy.
I am happy that I have been obsessed with swords all my life and dedicated myself to the way of the sword, and now I have finally touched a little threshold of the way of the sword. Sadly, his time is numbered, and the ninth tribulation of scattered immortals is about to come. And he has been obsessed with the understanding of the way of the sword all these years, and he has stagnated in his cultivation, and he has felt reluctant to survive the eighth tribulation of scattered immortals, and he is not sure at all about the ninth tribulation of scattered immortals.
The sage said: "If you hear the Tao, you can die at night!" Even though he may have to face the death of his body and the ashes, Yuan Hao Zhenren has no remorse.
He simply ignored the impending catastrophe of scattered immortals, and instead seized the last time to devote himself to the study of the ancient sword immortal path.
According to the inference results of Yuan Hao Zhenren, with Yuan Hao Zhenren's cultivation in the way of the sword, compared to the ancient sword immortals, it can only be regarded as entering the door!
However, the time left for Yuan Hao's real person was too short! The information on the Ancient Sword Immortal collected at hand was also too small. In the end, Yuan Hao Zhenren just put forward a conjecture about the way of the sword immortal based on his understanding of the way of the sword and the combination of the ancient texts!
This is "Heart Sword Chapter".
"Heart Sword Chapter" is about the real way to enter the Tao with a sword and achieve a sword immortal!
Immortal cultivators are using the dantian as a furnace to refine the gas and refinement, refining the essence into the pill, the pregnant pill as the baby, and the yuan infant into the god, and achieving the avenue.
"Heart Sword Chapter" is about using the dantian as a furnace to refine the golden qi of the human lungs to become a heart sword!
According to Yuan Hao's real person's assumption, before the Yuan infant period, those sword supernatural powers were just a little bit of the application of the sword immortal's way of swords, and they really entered the way with a sword, starting from the heart sword!
And to achieve the heart sword, you must first gather the lung gold and turn the sword qi, condense the sword qi into the sword, and the sword form the sword embryo, take the dantian as the furnace, and exercise the sword embryo with the fire of the yuan baby to become the heart sword!
That is to say, before the heart sword is achieved, it must go through the four stages of sword qi, sword mang, sword embryo, and heart sword.
Achieving the Heart Sword is just the beginning of the way of the Sword Immortal.
With the continuous improvement of cultivation, the Heart Sword is constantly being tempered by the Yuan Infant Fire, and it is also constantly evolving. The heart sword is a physical sword, which can be separated from the body like a magic sword and become a sharp weapon for attack, or it can be used as its own second elemental baby.
According to Yuan Hao's conjecture, with the improvement of cultivation, the final power of the heart sword will reach an incredible level, and as for how far it can evolve in the end, Yuan Hao Zhenren does not dare to make a judgment.
But Yuan Hao Zhenren firmly believes that in the end, the heart sword will evolve to the realm of "Dao".
One of the "Dao" says that the Xuanzhi is mysterious and mysterious, and those who cultivate the truth are diligently pursuing the way of heaven, but if anyone wants to explain what the "Dao" is, I am afraid that no one can say clearly. However, in cultivating all the arts, all the laws belong to the Tao, and the end point of all the methods of cultivation is the "Tao".
After the cultivator achieves the primordial infant, the primordial infant is immortal, and the true body is immortal. After the achievement of the heart sword, the same heart sword is not destroyed, and the original spirit is not destroyed, as long as the heart sword is destroyed and the yuan baby is broken, it will also be immortal and indestructible.
If the heart sword can finally be cultivated to the realm of "Dao", then the natural body is the same as the Dao, immortal and immortal, and the same life as heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon are all in the world. However, these are all conjectures made by Yuan Hao Zhenren based on his own understanding of the way of the sword, as well as some incomplete ancient sword immortal classics. In other words, the Heart Sword Chapter is just an incomplete exercise that has never been completed.
Yuan Hao Zhenren has completed the most basic framework and program in "Heart Sword Chapter", and also pointed out the final direction, but he didn't have time to practice it himself, and the ninth tribulation of scattered immortals came.
I can't help but say that creation makes people, and once enlightened. Scattered immortals are also known as earth immortals, and there is already a word "immortal" in the name, but they can't get rid of reincarnation after all. It is said that after surviving the ninth tribulation of scattered immortals, the scattered immortals will fly to the immortal realm, and from then on, they will be free between heaven and earth. But in the cultivation realm, I haven't heard of an existence that can withstand the ninth Scattered Immortal Tribulation.
"Yu Qian has been in the way of the sword all his life, and he has been glimpsing the door for the first time. If you take a hundred years of work, you will be able to peek into the way of heaven, become the law of a family, and pass on the name of eternity. However, it will not be possible to get the wish in the end, this providence is a pity, a hate!"
Seeing these words, Li Hui couldn't help but feel sad. Yuan Hao Zhenren has pursued the ultimate of kendo all his life, if he can really give him another hundred years, maybe he can really improve this "Heart Sword Chapter" and achieve supreme kendo. However, in the end, he fell at the door of the kendo, which really made people sigh.
"When the catastrophe came, he left his life's sword theory in the book, and put the rest of the immortal mansion in the mountains and wilderness, in the hope that future generations would get it. The rest of his life is in "Five Elements of Reincarnation" and "Three Articles of Kendo". Yu has the reckless body of the rivers and lakes, and the capital of the waste spiritual root, and there is today. Therefore, the gentleman is not trapped in himself, and the master is not limited to the destiny ......"
After reading this paragraph of information in the jade slip, Li Hui knew that he was able to get this immortal mansion, which can be said to be accidental, but it can also be regarded as the result of Yuan Hao's real arrangement.
Before the catastrophe came, Yuan Hao Zhenren engraved what he had learned all his life in the jade slip, and left his immortal mansion in this mountain forest, hoping that future generations could get it. His life's proudest work is to create such a mastery as the "Five Elements Reincarnation Technique", as well as his achievements in kendo.
Therefore, Yuan Hao Zhenren left a ban on the Immortal Mansion, and only the blood of a person with the spiritual root of the Five Elements would touch the prohibition and ingest it into the Immortal Mansion.
He believed that he was born in the rivers and lakes, and he was the worst of the cultivators, but in the end, he was able to achieve such an achievement, so people should not be trapped by their own flaws and the arrangement of fate.
In the end, Yuan Hao Zhenren left his last wish, hoping that the people who got the immortal mansion could follow the direction of their understanding of kendo. Even if you can't cultivate on your own, you hope to help you find a successor.
Putting down the jade slip, Li Hui fell into deep thought. Yuan Hao Zhenren gave him too much shock, and also showed him a way forward.
If Yuan Hao Zhenren had survived the ninth Scattered Immortal Tribulation back then, I am afraid that he would have come back to take away this Immortal Mansion and continue to pursue his own way of Sword Immortal. And now, this immortal mansion has been acquired by himself, and I am afraid that this generation of strange people has really died.
And if I only practice the "Five Elements Reincarnation Technique", and then cultivate some other methods of cultivating immortals, I am afraid that there will really be a day when I will ascend to the immortal realm.
And if you follow the route of Yuan Hao's real person, relying on the "Heart Sword Chapter" with only one outline, you don't know how far you can go.
After a while, Li Hui suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled: "Li Hui, Li Hui, if you don't happen to get this Immortal Mansion, I'm afraid you will still be a little monk in Lingxiao City who is bullied by others, and you don't even have any hope of building a foundation in this life." It's ridiculous to be here now!"
After a pause, Li Hui looked at Yuan Hao Zhenren's couch, imagining that Yuan Hao Zhenren was sitting there, and said:
Since God favors me Li Hui to get the inheritance of my predecessors, I will follow the path pointed out by my predecessors, and he will definitely achieve the great road and fulfill the last wishes of his predecessors. From today on, Li Hui is the successor of his predecessors! Master is on top, please be worshiped by his disciples!"
After speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully three times to the place where Yuan Hao's real person was in his imagination.
