Chapter 21: On the Sword

What is the Tao? The stars, the weak water, the Hanyu, and the vast can all be the Tao! If you have the Tao, you will reach the sky!

The Tao is the law, everything in heaven and earth has its own law, and this law is the Tao!

No matter what the way, it will eventually return to the embrace of the origin, between life and death.

The sword is also the way!

People are also Tao!

The pursuit of the extreme of the sword, how is it not the pursuit of the extreme of man?

But how long is the path to enlightenment!

Dugu asks for defeat and sighs to the sky, on such a road, everyone hopes to meet one or two confidants, or opponents, but what about him?

It was the same martial arts arena last night, the same few people, but Lu Caiyun was missing, she was gone, and the Shu family didn't embarrass her.

Everyone is teaching Shu Qianxuan's martial arts, after all, he is the only descendant of the Shu family, after yesterday's battle, Shu Dubai and Shu Duanshui are anxious to train this future successor.

If there is anything that Shu Duanshui can't rest assured in her heart, it is the entire Shu family! Otherwise, she would not have returned to the Shu family as soon as she left the mountain. The Shu family is not only the support of her soul, but also the driving force that supports her!

A woman who dedicated her entire youth to kendo, has no family affection, no love. The only thing that supports her is the future and glory of this family!

Of course, Dugu's quest for defeat was also pulled over by the three members of the Shu family, either with moving words, or with veined eyes, or respectful actions.

To tell the truth, for this Shu Qianxuan, Dugu has a good impression of defeat! This is the big boy he came into contact with at the second sight when he came to this strange world, and he seems to have a strength that surpasses others, just like himself back then

Shu Qianxuan was dressed in white and fluttering, the long sword in his hand was like a rushing wind, and the entire field was surrounded by a cloud of white mist and sword, which appeared and disappeared from time to time, like a dragon's tongue flying, like a violent wind, and more like the turbulent waves. This kind of swordsmanship is really good!

Shu Duanshui and Shu Mubai both smiled and nodded, this Shu Qianxuan was so weak in the year of the crown, and it was indeed unexpected that he could exert the 'Qiushui Sword Technique' so far!

Judging from Shu Qianxuan's sword momentum, he has clearly passed the second layer of Zhigang and stepped into the third layer of Qiushui swordsmanship: Chasing the Stream! This layer is the turning point of the entire Qiushui swordsmanship, and being able to reach this layer shows that the person who performs it has a relatively comprehensive understanding of the artistic conception of 'soft water', and when his skills and experience rise to another level, he can naturally break through the constraints of 'water' and reach or exceed the realm of 'good as water'!

At that time, Shu Qianxuan could also become one of the few masters in the rivers and lakes! As for whether he can carry forward the Shu family like Shu Shuanshui back then, it depends on his own specific chance!

After Shu Qianxuan finished playing the sword, he naturally stood aside, obediently waiting for the evaluation of the elders, in fact, what he cared about the most in his heart was the evaluation of Dugu seeking defeat!

"Hey, it seems that I can't do it, and the rivers and lakes in the future will have to be dealt with by you juniors!" Shu Mubai sighed for a while, and then immediately said to Shu Qianxuan in a serious tone:

"Qianxuan, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, always ask Mr. Dugu and the elders for advice, you must not be complacent!"

"Well, it's true that Qianxuan's swordsmanship is already very good, but you also have to put some pressure on yourself, break through the fifth layer as soon as possible, and then not only will your skills increase greatly, but also keep your appearance at that time forever, this is the biggest mystery of my Shu family's 'Qiushui Sword', with the power of soft water, stay young forever!" Shu Jieshui didn't know why, and suddenly proudly said this passage from his mouth, and his eyes glanced at Dugu on the side, as if to say, look, if you don't work hard, you will become like him!

Of course, Shu Qianxuan didn't understand her deeper meaning, but nodded fiercely on the side, for this senior who has the highest achievement in the history of the Shu family, I am afraid that everyone in the Shu family only has admiration and obedience in their hearts.

Then, the eyes of the three people all turned to the person next to them at the same time, and they were alone and sought defeat.

Dugu didn't speak, just looked at Shu Qianxuan quietly, and his serious eyes made him dare not take a breath!

It wasn't until after a while that even the self-proclaimed cheeky Qianxuan felt a tingling of his scalp and was very embarrassed, and then Dugu asked softly:

"What were you doing?"

Shu Qianxuan was stunned, and only replied after a while:

"Practice the sword!"

"What sword?"

"Sword Dance!"

"What sword?"

"Try the sword!"

Shu Qianxuan was sweating profusely, and this series of questions made him unable to deal with it! I don't know why, every time Dugu asked for defeat, he felt that it was difficult to speak! What was he doing? Practicing swords, dancing swords, trying swords, or...

"You don't know what you're doing!" Dugu sighed, his face was expressionless, and he said to Shu Qianxuan after a long time, Shu Qianxuan's heart was gloomy, is Mr. already very disappointed in himself!

"You don't have any intentions! You don't respect the sword in your hand at all! What you are waiting for is everyone's praise, you are very eager to prove yourself with the sword, and you are very happy when praise and encouragement come to you. Is it?

You, you're playing with a sword!" Dugu's words of defeat were deeply hit in Shu Qianxuan's heart, was his original intention really just to prove himself and look forward to praise? Could it be that he was really only 'playing' with the sword? Shu Qianxuan only felt a heart-wrenching pain in his heart!

This Mr. Dugu, what he said is too heavy, is my Shu family's swordsmanship really as embarrassing as he said? Shu Jieshui complained in his heart, but he didn't say it.

"Yes, yes!" It took a lot of effort for Shu Qianxuan to speak with difficulty in the worried eyes of Shu Mubai and Shu Jieshui, and he waited for Dugu to give him the final blow.

However, this time Dugu did not speak again, and the look of praise on his face was unexpected, and he nodded lightly, and then said to Shu Qianxuan, who bowed his head:

"Since you can still realize your own shortcomings, it means that you can still be saved!

"Sir, can you teach me?!" Shu Qianxuan raised his head, his eyes radiated a scorching light, and he was about to usher in the first earth-shaking change in his body and heart.

A metamorphosis of man and sword!
