Chapter 69: Abandoning the sword and cultivating the heart to get out of the cage

The snowflakes are numerous, the sky and the earth are white, and in the mountains and mountains, every qiē immediately becomes covered in silver, and the pines and cypresses that stand proudly are also covered with a layer of white clothing.

At this time, a month had passed since the beginning, and Zhao Xuan was standing proudly in the snow in a thin Tsing Yi robe, and opposite him, there was a person and a sculpture.

The eagle is a good carving, with its head held high, the momentum is fierce, although the appearance is hideous and ugly, but it has a dignified majesty. The person standing next to the carving was an old man, looking like he was one hundred and eighty years old, coarse cloth and single clothes, with a withered face, like an ordinary old farmer, but Zhao Xuan did not dare to underestimate it at all.

On such a snowy day, being able to wear only one single coat without changing the color of your face clearly has an extremely deep internal force. Moreover, when this old man appeared, he was silent, stepping on the snow without a trace, and he was obviously a master among masters. But the eagle next to him, with its thick body and short wings, could not fly, and left a lot of marks on the ground when it came. But it runs fast, like a horse, and has a momentum like a first-class master in the rivers and lakes. How many condors can there be in the world?

Looking at the old man again, although it looks ordinary at first glance, if you look closely, you can find the deep loneliness in the other party's eyes. This kind of loneliness Zhao Xuan had seen in the undefeated eyes of Dongfang, but it was far less than the old man opposite. If the undefeated loneliness of the East is "going to be at the top of the mountain and seeing the mountains at a glance", the old man in front of him is already beyond the scope of heaven and earth.

It's as if there is a feeling in the dark that this old man doesn't seem to be able to exist in this world. His figure was ethereal and extremely illusory, as if as long as one of them didn't pay attention, the old man would fly through the air.

The perspective of the Yuan Shen involuntarily opened, and the old man was like a sharp sword hidden in a sheath. Usually I don't think so, but if the sword is out of the sheath, it seems that heaven and earth can be poked out of a hole by him!

"But the Sword Demon Dugu is seeking defeat in front of him?" Zhao Xuan took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said the guess in his heart.

On the other side, the old man's face was slightly surprised, he looked at him carefully, nodded and said, "I didn't expect that there are still people in the world who know my name." ”

Zhao Xuan's body shook slightly, and he listened to Dugu on the other side and said, "Xiaoyou seems to be looking for something here." The tone was flat, although it was inquiring, but there was no hint of inquiry.

The snow was falling, but the two people in the snow were different. I saw that the snowflakes were a foot above Dugu's head, and they automatically turned, as if Dugu was seeking defeat and there was a vacuum around him. And Zhao Xuan's body was full of white gas, and although the snowflakes fell on him, they melted directly, leaving no traces. But compared with the vision on the opposite side of Dugu's defeat, it is clear which of the two is higher and which is lower.

Innate Realm!

The pupils in Zhao Xuan's eyes shrank, and this Dugu was proved to be a figure in the late Northern Song Dynasty, and it has been one hundred and eighty years since then. This age seems to be nothing in the martial arts, but the momentum on the other party is by no means ordinary.

It was as if the whole heaven and earth could no longer accommodate him, and the vacuum that appeared around his body was clearly a kind of sword intent. A kind of sword intent that breaks through heaven and earth! Only after congenital comprehension of heaven and earth can this kind of sword intent that is incompatible with heaven and earth be formed.

It seems difficult to understand, but it can be explained with a sentence of "know yourself and know your enemy"!

Enlightenment?

Zhao Xuan felt that he had really come to the right place, took a deep breath, and replied, "Yes, the poor road is here for the Tao!"

Maybe he just wanted to take a look at the sword mound before, but at the moment when he saw Dugu seeking defeat, his purpose had changed.

A strange light flashed in Dugu's eyes, he had been observing Zhao Xuan's behavior for several days, since the moment he saw Zhao Xuan a few days ago, he had become curious about this young man who was going around in circles in the mountains. One is because Zhao Xuan seems to be looking for something here, and he has been here for decades and knows that there is nothing here but him. The second is Zhao Xuan's cultivation, at such an age, he has vaguely touched the innate realm, and there is a feeling on his body that he is extremely familiar with: the sense of rejection by heaven and earth! This makes him even more curious about Zhao Xuan's intention.

You must know that he is also being rejected by this heaven and earth, but the reason why he is rejected by heaven and earth is because of his own swordsmanship. And Zhao Xuan obviously hasn't reached the realm of entering the Dao yet, let alone enlightenment? Then Zhao Xuan's feeling of being rejected by heaven and earth made him a little inexplicable.

Through the conversation just now, Zhao Xuan seemed to have known that he was here, and now he said that he was here to seek the Tao, which made Dugu's lonely heart suddenly have a sense of pleasure, and said with a smile: "Since you have come to seek the Tao, do you know where it is?"

Zhao Xuan said without thinking: "The Tao is in front of you!"

Dugu nodded appreciatively and said, "Let me see your sword." ”

Of course, this so-called "sword" does not refer to the Qiushui Sword hanging on Zhao Xuan's waist, but to see Zhao Xuan's sword intent.

Zhao Xuanfu went to his heart, and said: "Offended!" The long sword in his hand came out of the sheath and turned into a sword light to stab Dugu for defeat.

Bite!

Dugu didn't take out the sword when he was defeated, he only used one finger to resist the tip of Zhao Xuan's sword, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head and said, "If you haven't realized the sword intent, why do you want the way of the sword?"

Zhao Xuan was silent for a long time, and asked, "What is sword intent?"

"The meaning of the sword!"

"What is kendo?"

"I'm for the way of the sword!" Dugu said this, and the momentum on his body changed, and the sword momentum rose to the sky, as if even the dark clouds in the sky were stirred. A gust of wind blew from all sides around him, and the snowflakes flew out in a chaotic manner, and even the snow on the ground was blown up into the sky, billowing and spilling out.

Zhao Xuan stood still and did not move, letting the snow bury him, his eyes were shining, and he stared at Dugu, who seemed to be about to break away.

At this time, Dugu's feeling of defeat was even stronger than before, and the sword intent on his body rose, as if the void was about to be torn apart. The sense of loneliness abandoned by heaven and earth is even stronger. But Zhao Xuan knew that Dugu's defeat was not abandoned by heaven and earth, but because the sword was too strong and was not tolerated by heaven and earth, so he was rejected by heaven and earth!

I'm a sword dog, so domineering!

Zhao Xuan's heart was suddenly inspired to compete with him. If he is an ordinary person, even if he shows great force in front of him, or even insults him verbally, it will not arouse his desire to win. There is only an amazing and glamorous person like Dugu seeking defeat, although he will admire, but he will never be impressed!

In the face of Dugu's defeat, it can inspire the arrogance in his bones even more!

A long howl sounded from his mouth, straight through the sky, a breath of true qi endured, echoing in the valley.

For a long time, Dugu's momentum of seeking defeat was subdued, and at the same time, the whistle stopped.

Zhao Xuan looked at Dugu seeking defeat, his eyelids drooped, and his edge disappeared suddenly. Dugu sought defeat but suddenly said: "Have you ever understood now?"

"Understood. Zhao Xuan's expression was indifferent.

Dugu Qiu Xue sighed, his face was not full of regret, and he shook his head and said: "With your age, it is very rare to be able to reach the current realm. It's a pity that this life can only stop here. ”

Zhao Xuan's expression was still indifferent, he was silent for a long time, and said, "That's not necessarily." ”

Dugu shook his head and said: "Although I don't know where you learned the swordsmanship, but you have fallen deep into my sword path, and it is difficult to get out of this cage!"

It turned out that Dugu sought defeat from Zhao Xuan's sword, and he saw that Zhao Xuan's sword had the shadow of Dugu Nine Swords in his sword, and he walked the way he took. But his way of seeking defeat is his own, and Zhao Xuan should also have his own way.

Zhao Xuan blindly learned the sword, and it would not have been a big deal. But the bad thing is that he has too strong understanding, and he actually realized the way of Dugu from Dugu's swordsmanship. The longer you cultivate, the deeper you will fall into the path of seeking defeat in Dugu. Now that I have touched the innate realm, I can't extricate myself. Even if he can enter the innate world, he can take the road of solitude and defeat, and his achievements are still limited.

Dugu's defeat is to see this, and he will say that Zhao Xuan can only stop here in this life, and it is difficult to make any more progress!

But will Zhao Xuan really stop there? I'm afraid even he doesn't know.

Looking at the old man standing quietly in the snow in front of him, Zhao Xuan slowly closed his eyes.

The previous calmness is just an appearance, and whoever knows that he has made mistakes and corrected his mistakes will no longer have hope in this life, and I am afraid that he will not be able to maintain calm. What's more, he has deep roots in the Tao and has long had the idea of seeking the Tao. Now that he knows that he is deeply involved in other humanity, how can he be as indifferent as he seems?

Maybe it's because the heart is dead, right?

Dugu looked at Zhao Xuan, who closed his eyes, and felt more and more regretful in his heart. At his current level, it is difficult to be moved by external objects. When he buried the sword before, he also felt lonely and embarrassed. But after he broke through the innate and understood his kendo, a heart of seeking the way was always paved on the kendo, and he no longer felt lonely. In front of him, Zhao Xuan was not yet middle-aged, and he had already touched the edge of the innate realm, which couldn't help but make him think of love. It's a pity that after Zhao Xuan took out his sword, he found that Zhao Xuan did not comprehend his sword path, but was deeply trapped in his sword path. At his level, he no longer wondered where Zhao Xuan learned his swordsmanship, but he felt sorry for the lack of a person who was also oriented to the Tao on the road of seeking the Dao.

Sighing softly, Dugu finally glanced at Zhao Xuan, and was about to turn around and leave. Because he knew that even if Zhao Xuan was alive now, he would be like a walking corpse, and there was no need to talk to each other at all.

But before he could turn around, he suddenly paused again. I saw Zhao Xuan open his eyes suddenly, and the Tao and meaning in his eyes were intertwined, mysterious and mysterious. The long sword in his hand stood in front of his chest, stretched out his left hand, and gently stroked the sword body with his index and middle fingers, only to hear the sound of the long sword, and the long sword broke from the middle.

saw Zhao Xuan chuckle, and abandoned the broken sword body and hilt like a shoe, and threw it on the snow. There was a bright light in his eyes, and he said loudly:

"Why do you need to fetish things, there are thousands of changes in your heart.

There are three thousand in the Dao of Heaven, and my Dao is not in the sword!"

Yin Ba bowed to him, turned around and left, without any nostalgia.

Dugu was stunned for a moment, and then a gorgeous smile bloomed on his face, and he stood quietly in place until Zhao Xuan's figure disappeared in the distance.

He knew that Zhao Xuan's Dao heart had been fulfilled and he had finally found his own way.

Isn't it in the sword?

It's also good......

See you again!

Dugu's eyes suddenly turned to defeat, and he looked up at the sky, his eyes were like a sword, and he saw a ripple in the void everywhere he looked.

In an instant, the temperament of being rejected by heaven and earth and getting out of heaven and earth became stronger and stronger.

......
