Chapter 2 The sword heart is clear
In the dark, there is a providence. After Zhang Xun decided to take the path of sword cultivation by himself, he thought that it was really providence that made him make such a choice. After seven years of searching for seeds, the biggest difficulty I encountered was to create a five-element sword formation to solve it; to introduce qi into the body to activate the spiritual root, but it was also a spiritual root with all five elements; and to practice stunts, it was a bottleneck in swordsmanship. Along the way, it seems that the sword has always been with him, and he has never really left. All in all, among the blades, Zhang Xun was most familiar with and used the sword, which pushed him on this path by all kinds of coincidences.
Zhang Xun left the core area of the secret realm and went to the Xingwen Academy to find his father-in-law, Murong Ruthless, and prepared to let him, a famous sword master in the early years, accompany him to hone his sword heart. The reason why Murong Wuru is now in Xingwen Academy is because his youngest daughter Murong Shuang has just been pregnant for more than a month, and he and his wife Ouyang Qin have come to take care of their youngest daughter's diet and daily life. Speaking of which, this Murong Shuang is really a strange woman with clear love and hate, and a week after getting the ice talisman refined by her sister Murong Xue and the antidote pill refined by Xin Lan on the day of her marriage, she went to the Xia Kingdom alone to find the male and female swords, ended their lives, and avenged her first love. At the moment when Cui Tiansheng and Ren Yanping, the pretty rakshasa in the poisonous lang, were both frozen into ice sculptures, there was one less witch with a thousand faces in heaven and earth, and there was one more good wife and mother who taught her husband and children.
Murong ruthlessly learned that his virtuous son-in-law Zhang Xun wanted to develop in the way of the sword, and asked him to hone his sword heart, as a swordsman who had been obsessed with swordsmanship for many years, now he had become a sword cultivator from the martial arts, where would he not agree! So Weng and his son-in-law attacked each other with swords every day, Zhang Xun temporarily forgot that he was a monk, and only regarded himself as a swordsman who performed all kinds of sword moves he knew. Half a month passed, and in the middle of an attack with his father-in-law, Zhang Xun finally realized. Zhang Xun felt that there was an extra breath in his body, which should be a sign of the beginning of the sword heart. Sure enough, Murong ruthlessly put away his sword and stopped, and said with a smile: "Son-in-law, congratulations! Zhang Xun said: "Thank you father-in-law for taking time out of his busy schedule to accompany me to practice swords, and my son-in-law has made a breakthrough." Bidding farewell to his father-in-law, Zhang Xun returned to the spiritual spring and continued to cultivate the first move of the Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword, the Cloud Mountain Mist Cover.
Zhang Xun knew that the sword heart he had just formed was just a prototype, and in the eyes of real sword cultivators, only when the sword heart was clear would they recognize that you had a sword heart. Zhang Xun swung his sword again, obviously feeling the difference from when he had no sword in his heart before, since he had found the right direction, he would go on unswervingly. For a whole week, Zhang Xun kept repeating the trick of the Yunshan Mist Cover, and there were no distractions in his heart, and finally this move of the Yunshan Mist Cover reached a real completion at dusk on the last day, and the sword heart was much more stable. If Zhang Xun's sword heart could only vaguely feel the presence of a trace of sword breath when he first became a sword, then now he has a three-percent sense of the sword.
The clouds and mountains are covered with fog, and the next step is the realm of perfection. Zhang Xun knew that he had eight and a half years to go to Penglai Immortal Island in the cultivation world, and Dacheng's sword moves alone were completely insufficient to protect himself, and if he met a strong opponent, he would not even have a chance to escape. Therefore, Zhang Xun must practice his sword moves to perfection in order to face future challenges. And for the sword move to be perfect, at least two conditions must be met, first of all, the sword heart must be clear, and secondly, it must contain three percent of the sword intent. Not to mention the sword heart, it is indeed difficult to achieve the sword intent of Sancheng, but once the sword move is complete, the power is more than ten times greater than that of Dacheng, and it is completely possible to defeat the opponent by leaping over the ranks.
Another half a year has passed, and this trick has been practiced by Zhang Xun at least tens of millions of times, and Jian Xin only needs one opportunity to understand it at this moment. What made Zhang Xun feel strange was that generally speaking, it was much easier to achieve the clarity of the sword heart than to produce the sword intent. Even if it is just a trace of sword intent, in Penglai Immortal Island, almost all of them can only be done in the late stage of Jindan, even if it is a legendary sword cultivation genius, it is at least in the early stage of Jindan. Zhang Xun thought about it for a long time, and felt that there was only one reason that could be explained, that is, he had practiced too much of this sword move, and Zhang Xun even suspected that the creator of this Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword was not familiar with this trick Cloud Mountain Mist Cover. Zhang Xun is now casting the cloud and mountain fog cover, which contains the sword intent of Xiaocheng Liuyun, and it is said that it should show the weather of the cloud and mountain fog cover, but the sword heart has not yet been cleared, and the sword move cannot reach the perfection, so there is no weather. Zhang Xun's guess is that it is right for people, where does someone practice a set of swordsmanship like him, it is that trick over and over again, let alone sword intent for other people, I am afraid that my spirit will collapse.
Another month passed, and it was drizzling at dusk. Perhaps when the opportunity came, Zhang Xun practiced and suddenly chanted: "The sword is free in the world, and the clouds and drizzle accompany me." If you ask where the sword heart stays, it is free and agile and elegant. As soon as the words fell, the weather of the cloud mountain fog shroud appeared, and the sword move was completed, and at the same time, Zhang Xun also reached the realm of sword heart. Seeing the weather in front of him that appeared in front of him as a result of his sword moves, Zhang Xun knew that he had succeeded. The effort was not in vain. After leaving Lingquan, he walked outside the secret room and joined the four ladies and four children who had just finished retreat, and then went to Xingwen Academy together.
Zhang Xun's family arrived at Xingwen Academy and walked to the door of the small courtyard where Song Ping and Murong Shuang lived. Seeing Murong Ruthless and Ouyang Qin and his wife standing there, Murong Xue stepped forward and asked, "Father, mother, why are you standing at the door?" Ouyang Qin said: "In the last two months, your father saw that Shuang'er's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and this is a secret realm, so it was not good to let Wen Po come in to deliver the baby, thinking that Jiang Chengsheng, the master of the Divine Doctor Valley, owed him a favor in his early years, so he personally went to the Divine Doctor Valley. Not long after your father and Jiang Chengsheng's daughter Jiang Xiwu came back, the girl who was dancing was checking Shuang'er's body inside! Your father and I couldn't watch from the side, right! So he stood at the door and waited for news. After a while, Jiang Xi danced out and said ruthlessly to Murong: "Uncle Murong, Sister Shuang and the fetus in her womb are very healthy, and the birth date is the day after tomorrow. I will take care of it for the next few days, so you and your family can rest assured. Murong said ruthlessly: "With Niece Jiang here, what is there to worry about uncle." After Jiang Xiwu left, Zhang Xun asked Xiaoxue and the others to accompany Ouyang Qin into the courtyard to visit Murong Shuang, while he and his father-in-law were drinking fragrant tea in the shade of the tree and talking about swords.
The family returned to their small courtyard, and after the children returned to their rooms, Zhang Xun asked about the progress of Xinlan, Xiaoxue, Bihe, and Yuchan. Xin Lan has successfully refined the second-level elixir Yiyuan Dan, and she only needs to increase the success rate to be promoted to an alchemist. Xiaoxue has been studying for more than a year, and now he can make a variety of first-level and second-level runes, as for the ice runes, the defensive spirit runes made by Xiaoxue can withstand the full force attack of a mid-foundation building monk, and the attack spirit rune is equivalent to the full force of the ice monk in the middle of the foundation building. Bihe is to practice her two stunts Wind Finger and Meteor Chasing Moon Leg to the fullest, and then she is ready to study the rhythm, and she is also very good for those who don't like to kill. Yuchan is cultivating various fire-based techniques, especially the attack type, which has now reached the realm of perfection. After listening to the accounts of the four ladies, Zhang Xun also told him about his own situation, and let the four women call themselves perverted. After the four ladies finished laughing at themselves, Zhang Xun said: "Xinlan, Xiaoxue, Bihe, Yuchan, my husband thinks that our family should build a foundation at the last moment when we leave here." Build the foundation, build the foundation, and build the foundation. The more stable the foundation of the road, the easier the path will be. Just like building a house, the firmer the foundation, the more stable the house can be after a long time. In addition, Xinlan Alchemy Xiaoxue has no time to practice talismans, Bi Hechan, you should pay more attention to the children's situation. The four girls replied in unison, "Got it, husband." ”
Everyone in the Xingwen Academy accompanied Song Ping to wait outside the small courtyard, no one spoke, and they were all quietly waiting for the birth of the first little life in the secret realm. With a cry, everyone had a smile on their faces, and Song Ping, who had just become a father, was even more excited. Miss Jiang Xiwu, who delivered Murong Shuang, came out and said ruthlessly to Murong: "Mother and son are safe, congratulations to Uncle Murong!" and then went down to rest. Everyone went to see the little baby named Song Chuanwen by Song Ping in batches, the baby was very cute, especially the eyes were even more smart and expressive, so that everyone felt that this child would be extraordinary in the future.
Zhang Xun's family entered the core of the secret realm on the third day after Murong Shuang gave birth to Song Chuanwen, and each began to cultivate. Coming to the Lingquan, Zhang Xun began to practice the second move of the Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword. Compared with the first move, the cloud mountain fog cover, although it is still a change in the clouds, the focus of the sea of clouds and tides lies in the two words tide, tide refers to moisture, and birth is something out of nothing. If the change of the clouds in the trick of the cloud mountain fog cover is a quantitative change, then the change of the clouds in the trick of the sea of clouds is a qualitative change. It's just two sword moves, and the second move hasn't been started yet, Zhang Xun sighed that this monk who created the sword technique of flowing clouds and rain is really a genius. Zhang Xun didn't look at the next four moves, but he could now judge that the full set of sword moves was to express the entire rainfall process from omen to formation, from beginning to end in the form of a sword. This idea alone made Zhang Xun admire.
In just two months, Zhang Xun practiced this trick Yunhai Chaosheng to perfection, and the Liuyun Sword Intent was also practiced to seventy percent. In the world of cultivation, both exercises and stunts are divided into four levels, and each level is divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. Of course, this division is only for the exercises and the stunt itself, and the real power depends on how you practice. In the case of Zhang Xun's practice of the Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword, the Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword was originally just a high-grade swordsmanship at the Xuan Rank. If one move only reaches a small achievement, and one move is practiced, then the power of the full set of exercises is only the level of the middle grade of the Xuan Rank. After each move is completed, practicing the next move ensures the level of the stunt itself at the level of the upper grade of the Xuan Rank, and like Zhang Xun, each move reaches the perfection, which is equivalent to raising the Flowing Cloud Drifting Rain Sword from the upper grade of the Xuan Rank to the level of the lower grade of the ground level. In short, Zhang Xun pursued perfection because of the Virgo complex this time, and vaguely and secretly followed the principle of step-by-step, and he hit the right one, and the harvest was not small.
