Chapter 87: Jade Bones Paint Mountains and Rivers, Xu Yan Enters Xiantian (asking for monthly tickets)

"It's different. Without you to practice with me, I wouldn't have had the sudden enlightenment. I wouldn't have realized that Master's words and deeds have laid the foundation for me to understand the sword intent in advance."

Xu Yan shook his head and told the truth.

Without Xie Lingfeng's questions and sparring, his perception would not have been triggered, so Xie Lingfeng still deserves some credit for being able to comprehend the Sword Intent of Mountains and Rivers so quickly.

"Brother Xu, can I meet the senior?"

Xie Lingfeng said with a fascinated look on his face.

"I need to ask my master first."

Xu Yan thought for a moment and said.

"Thank you very much, Brother Xu."

Xie Lingfeng said gratefully.

After a pause, he sighed, "I, Xie Lingfeng, thought I had an outstanding talent in swordsmanship, but I never thought that I couldn't even enter the door of swordsmanship.

"Brother Xu, how can I achieve a clear sword mind?"

The foundation of kendo is to have a clear sword mind.

Xie Lingfeng also wanted to comprehend the state of sword heart enlightenment, but as for the realm above sword heart enlightenment, it was too far away for him.

It is a great honor to be able to have a clear mind of sword and enter the door of sword in this life.

How can one achieve a clear sword heart?

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment. He didn't know how to teach Xie Lingfeng. After all, their ways of practicing were different.

After thinking about it, Xu Yan felt that before his sword heart could become clear, the first thing he had to do was to improve his state of mind and make it clear.

"Master said, 'Without women in your heart, you can practice as if you have a god.' This state of mind is so profound that it broke the shackles of my own state of mind. It was because I understood Master's analogy of state of mind that I laid a solid foundation and had the basis for a clear sword heart.

"So, if you want to have a clear mind, you must first achieve 'no woman in your heart'. Only when you have such a state of mind, where you are not disturbed by external things and are clear about yourself, can you enter a clear mind."

Thinking of this, Xu Yan asked, "Brother Xie, do you miss a woman?"

Although Xie Lingfeng is older than him, he is still at an age of full vigor and vitality, and is most easily attracted to women. If he can resist the temptation of women and act according to his heart, his state of mind will have the foundation for understanding the sword.

Xie Lingfeng was confused.

I asked about the way of the sword, and you talked about women?

This line of thinking is too exaggerated.

"Maybe... I kind of want to... I would think about it, right?"

For a moment, Xie Lingfeng didn't know how to answer.

“Xie brother, the foundation of a clear swordsmanship lies in a clear mind, which means that one can control oneself and not be disturbed by external things.

"One of the prerequisites for entering the sword path is to have no woman in your heart. Only then will there be hope."

Xu Yan said solemnly.

Xie Lingfeng continued to be confused, his eyes were a little dazed, and he said: "No woman in your heart? Does that mean..."

He lowered his head and glanced at the area below his abdomen.

"Brother Xie, you are mistaken. The so-called 'no heart for women' does not mean to abandon women. It is a state of mind, a state of mind... To put it bluntly, if I am not moved, women are not enough to make me move...

“It is a state of mind that controls oneself and clarifies one’s mind.”

Xu Yan explained hurriedly.

To prevent Xie Lingfeng from misunderstanding and directly cutting his brother with a knife.

Xie Lingfeng's eyes were blank. What kind of state of mind was this? How could he understand it?

It's too fucking mysterious.

Having no woman in your heart does not mean you abandon women, but it does mean you control yourself...

"Am I not suitable for practicing swordsmanship?"

Xie Lingfeng fell into self-doubt.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and said, "I wonder how can I achieve the state of mind you mentioned, 'no woman in my heart'?"

Xu Yan thought about it and realized that he had made great progress because he went to Queen Qi's palace to hone his mind.

So he said frankly: “At first, I went to the harem of the old Emperor Qi to watch his concubines and beauties dancing and performing gracefully, so as to hone my mind and eventually achieve something.”

"Thank you, Brother Xu, for your advice!"

Xie Lingfeng's eyes lit up and he thanked him solemnly.

"Thank you, you're welcome."

Xu Yan felt that since he had helped him comprehend the sword intent in advance, it was only right for him to teach him how to hone his mind.

For Xie Lingfeng, this day was like a skylight opened up and he saw the real world.

He had gained some glimpses of the mysteries of the sword, but he was unable to grasp the key points.

The sword intent is so mysterious.

How can you say you have entered the door of the sword if you haven't realized the meaning of the sword? Leaving Xu Yan's residence and returning to the imperial palace where he lived, Xie Lingfeng saw Hu Shan, who was still a little depressed, so he said: "Hu Shan, you should be happy. Now that you have learned the truth about martial arts, you should pursue the true martial arts!"

Hu Shan smiled bitterly and said, "Master, it's easy to say, but I still can't accept it!"

“Nothing is unacceptable.”

Xie Lingfeng said with a firm gaze: "I want to practice the true martial arts, I want to truly step into the door of the sword."

Hu Shan was startled, as if he saw the young master again, pursuing the sword path on Jianzun Cliff.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"Hu Shan, do you know the meaning of sword? Today, I finally know what the true way of sword is."

Xie Lingfeng let out a breath.

"Sword intention?"

Hu Shan murmured.

Xie Lingfeng told Xu Yan about his understanding of the sword intent today, and finally said: "The mountain and river sword intent is really powerful!"

Hu Shan couldn't calm down for a long time.

…

Xu Yan finally understood the meaning of sword, and he decided to return to Yunshan County to break through the innate realm.

Before leaving, he gave some guidance to Guo Rongshan and others on their cultivation.

On this day, Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan saw him off.

"Xie brother, if my master is willing to see you, I will send a message to my grandfather and ask him to notify you!"

Xu Yan bowed.

"Thank you, Brother Xu!"

Xie Lingfeng said gratefully.

He wanted to visit Xu Yan's master, the mysterious reclusive master.

This is an opportunity! We must seize it! "Goodbye!"

Xu Yan bowed, turned and left.

Yunshan County.

Meng Chong was comprehending the Eight Trigrams. The more he comprehended, the more mysterious it seemed to him. He always felt that he had understood something, but he could never grasp the key points.

“We can’t rush this.”

Meng Chong took a deep breath to calm his anxious heart.

Li Xuan paid attention to Meng Chong for a few days and then stopped paying attention to him. With Meng Chong's talent, he would definitely be able to gain some insights.

Suddenly, the feedback from the golden finger appeared.

"Your disciple Xu Yan has comprehended the Mountain and River Sword Intent, and your Mountain and River Sword Intent has reached perfection!"

Boom!

The sword intent emerged in my mind, as if I was born with it.

Sword intent of mountains and rivers!

Li Xuan was immediately overjoyed, "What a good disciple! He has already comprehended the sword intent before breaking through the Xiantian realm. He really has the qualities of a sword god!"

The cause of martial arts has taken another big step forward.

In a flash, an inexplicable aura enveloped the small courtyard, as if the mountains and rivers were all in the small courtyard. It had an endless sense, yet was also potentially fierce and ruthless.

Shi Er, who was practicing, suddenly felt that he seemed to have entered a mountain and river.

How insignificant I am.

The mountains and rivers seemed ruthless, as if they could bury all living things, and he was being buried by them.

"What's going on?"

Shi Er was shocked.

"I want to break free!"

He wanted to struggle but was unable to move. In the end, he gritted his teeth and continued to practice his skills to temper his bones.

"I want to become stronger. The faster I become stronger, the faster I can get out of here!"

With this belief in mind, Shi Er was frantically refining his bones.

In a trance, he felt as if he was being eroded by the mountains and rivers, but because of his tenacious resistance, the speed of bone refining increased greatly, and the speed of the mountains and rivers encroaching was constantly decreasing.

He was so happy that he practiced even harder.

Li Xuan looked at Shi Er silently. He just used the Mountain and River Sword Intent and pressed it a little, but it actually greatly increased Shi Er's bone refining speed.

"Sword spirit can temper oneself, from the body to the spirit."

Li Xuan fell into deep thought.

Wait for Xu Yan to come back and remind him to let his disciple continue to develop the magical power of sword.

Shi Er woke up from the state of being enveloped by mountains and rivers. He was shocked to find that he had actually tempered his bones into bronze! Unknowingly, he had completed the tempering of his bones into iron in a short period of time.

At this moment, he understood a little.

"Thank you, my Lord!"

He bowed respectfully to Li Xuan.

"Well, practice well and get started as soon as possible."

Li Xuan nodded.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Xu Yan is back.

“Master!”

Xu Yan bowed respectfully.

"Good! Good! Disciple, you were able to comprehend the sword intent before the breakthrough. It's worth all my efforts!"

Li Xuan looked relieved.

"As expected! From the very beginning, Master has been teaching by words and deeds, laying the foundation for me to comprehend the sword spirit."

When Xu Yan heard this, he was immediately moved.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Disciple, the sword's meaning is profound and can temper oneself. It is not just about killing enemies and winning. You need to comprehend it more."

Li Xuan said solemnly.

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan seemed to be lost in thought. He had not yet grasped the essence of the mysterious sword intent.

The master was reminding himself that sword power is not just for fighting against enemies! "It's time for you to break through the Xiantian realm."

"Disciple will be able to break through in the next few days."

"Go ahead, settle down for a while, and break through the innate realm. Only by breaking through the innate realm can you truly transcend the mundane world and truly step onto the path of martial arts.

"The Qi and Blood Realm can only be regarded as the opening of the door to the martial arts."

Li Xuan said seriously.

"Disciple understands!"

Xu Yan bowed.

Outside Yunshan County, Meng Chong was still walking the Bagua, comprehending the wonderful principles of the Bagua, and comprehending the body techniques.

Xu Yan appeared and looked at Meng Chong who was doing the gossip, feeling surprised.

"Junior brother's understanding of the Eight Trigrams seems to be somewhat different from mine? Could it be that Junior brother's understanding is wrong?

"No! If Junior Brother has made a mistake in his understanding, Master will definitely correct him."

Thinking of this, Xu Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Everyone has a different understanding of the wonderful principles of Bagua. Perhaps we can verify each other and gain more insights."

Meng Chong stopped and said happily: "Brother, you are back."

"Junior brother, are you trying to comprehend the body movement?"

"Yes, but Junior Brother is stupid and hasn't figured it out yet!"

Meng Chong touched his bald head, looking a little ashamed.

"There is no rush to comprehend the technique. The mysteries of the Eight Diagrams have different perceptions. After I break through the Xiantian realm, we can discuss with each other. The exchange of our perceptions will definitely yield different gains."

Xu Yan patted Meng Chong on the shoulder.

"good!"

Meng Chong nodded.

After exchanging pleasantries with Meng Chong, Xu Yan left the forest and came to a hillside not far away.

Sit cross-legged and calm yourself.

Prepare to break through the innate realm.

He had already understood the Xiantian realm's skills.

Breakthrough is not a problem.

Three days later.

Xu Yan took a deep breath and began to circulate his Qi and blood, constantly refining it. As his Qi and blood condensed, his jade bones shone brightly.

"Qi and blood are condensed into innate true qi, which penetrates the bridge between heaven and earth, absorbs and exhales the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and opens up the Dantian Qi Sea..."

Xu Yan urged his qi and blood to condense it while connecting the bridge between heaven and earth. A rumbling sound rang out within his body.

A mysterious feeling came over me.

His intuition told him that if he could penetrate the bridge between heaven and earth, he would be able to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorb and exhale the spiritual energy to practice.

Boom!

The bridge between heaven and earth was being penetrated bit by bit under the impact of qi and blood, and it seemed as if a bright and shining avenue was taking shape in the body.

"Is this the bridge between heaven and earth? A bridge connecting heaven and earth."

Xu Yan was excited.

Boom!

Qi and blood continued to impact, and the bridge between heaven and earth was opened up little by little, but the speed was not fast. As the bridge between heaven and earth began to open up, Qi and blood continued to condense, and began to show signs of transformation.

The jade bones all over his body were radiating brilliance at this moment.

"Master said that sword spirit can temper oneself, not just for fighting against the enemy..."

Xu Yan suddenly remembered what his master said.

As his mind moved, the sword intent emerged.

"The sword's will merges into the blood, penetrates the bridge between heaven and earth, and merges into the jade bones..."

The sword intent of mountains and rivers flowed in Xu Yan's body. As the sword intent entered his blood and energy, in an instant, some kind of transformation seemed to be taking place.

As the sword intent flowed on the flawless jade bones, mysterious lines gradually emerged. The fine, flawless lines seemed to depict mountains and rivers.

Xu Yan, immersed in the breakthrough, circulated his sword intent, condensed his blood, and connected the bridge between heaven and earth, unaware of the transformation that had taken place in himself.

Boom!

After the sword intent was integrated into the qi and blood, the speed of penetrating the bridge between heaven and earth was slowly increasing.

And on the bridge between heaven and earth, the shadow of a sword seemed to appear.

At a certain moment, Xu Yan had an idea: "If the sword will be integrated into the blood, then I can condense the blood into the Dragon Subduing Palm, and use it to penetrate the bridge between heaven and earth. Wouldn't it be faster?"

Do it when you think of it.

Boom!

The Qi and blood suddenly turned into a giant dragon, roaring and continuously attacking the Bridge of Heaven and Earth. As the giant dragon penetrated the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, gradually, a dragon shape seemed to appear on the Bridge.

It seems like there is a giant dragon lying on the bridge between heaven and earth!

The sword intent merged into the qi and blood, and the qi and blood turned into a giant dragon. At this moment, the Dragon Subduing Palm seemed to have undergone some changes.

Some enlightenment emerged in Xu Yan's mind.

Boom!

The bridge between heaven and earth continued to connect, becoming bigger and wider.

The Qi and blood gradually took on the form of innate true Qi. In its purity, it contained a tremendous power, like the power of a real dragon.

It also contains a sharp edge, and it is endless, like mountains and rivers.

The jade bones are shining, and the mountains and rivers are depicted on the flawless jade bones, presenting an image of flawless mountains and rivers.

At a certain moment, a dragon's roar seemed to be heard in the body, and a giant dragon circled around the body and disappeared into the jade bones, as if a real dragon was hiding in the mountains and rivers.

The sky-earth bridge was also connected at this moment.

Boom!

Qi and blood suddenly transformed into innate true qi.

At this moment, Xu Yan only felt that his senses were changing, as if the world had become clearer.

I felt as if I had merged into the world.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was sensed.

The violent spiritual energy rolled in as he breathed in and out, passing through the bridge between heaven and earth and pouring into the sea of ​​qi in his dantian.

Boom!

The Dantian vibrated as if the world was created. Under the impact of spiritual energy, the outline of the Dantian Qi Sea appeared.
