"Sword Saint", whose real name is Pei Hanzheng.
Those with a cold and upright color are pure and noble.
Judging from the name alone, he seems to be a cold and sword-mad man who is unapproachable and devoted to the pursuit of truth.
But in fact, this is not the case.
Behind the title of "Sword Saint" is a story of a young boy who avenged his master and wiped out an entire family of his enemies with a single sword. In his youth, he joined the Demon Sect to avoid being hunted down, but the villains framed him as an undercover agent of the righteous path out of jealousy. In anger, he destroyed the Demon Sect again. In his prime, he concealed his identity and joined the army to cultivate his character. He killed 300,000 Night Barbarians in Beiyuan and pushed the Beiyuan front forward a full thousand miles. In his middle age, he attained enlightenment, reached the shore of Taoism, and was canonized and secluded in Xushi Mountain. It is a magnificent story.
From this story that has been circulating for many years, it can be seen that Pei Hanzheng has a bad temper. It can even be said that he is irritable and has a strong murderous nature.
Moreover, this person has no concept of good and evil. If there had not been a "good man" in the Demon Sect, he would probably not be famous as the "Sword Saint" but as the "Demon Lord".
Therefore, when Chen Kuang discovered that the other party was not dead yet, he was shocked.
This cannot be blamed on him. If the other party really wanted to stop him, he only needed to fully unfold his own "Dao Domain" and Chen Kuang would naturally stop at the foot of the mountain to announce his purpose.
But Pei Hanzheng did not do that. On the contrary, he even restrained his "Dao Domain". Only a small part of the power escaped from the periphery of Xushi Mountain.
It was for this reason that Chen Kuang mistakenly thought that the other party had passed away.
I mistakenly thought that what remained was just the residual power of the "Sword Saint"...
Of course, the most important thing is that according to records, the "Sword Saint" really did pass away around this time.
However, the slight surprise in Chen Kuang's heart was overwhelmed by a greater shock.
Pei Hanzheng actually accurately reported the name of the martial arts he was practicing!
At this moment, it was 2,300 years ago. Pei Hanzheng had absolutely no possibility of knowing Huo Hengxuan, so naturally he had no idea what kind of martial arts Huo Hengxuan was good at.
Chen Kuang also didn't think that the "Sword Saint" could read minds and could tell what kind of martial arts the "Sword Saint" was practicing at the first sight.
There is only one possibility -
This "Song of Cutting Grass" has its origins in the "Sword Saint"!
That’s right… Huo Hengxuan never told the origin of “The Grass-Cutting Song”.
Chen Kuang thought that compared with the "Sword Saint", Huo Hengxuan was just a junior who could not be any younger. If Huo Hengxuan happened to get the inheritance of the "Sword Saint" by chance... it was entirely possible!
This explains the "Sword Master's" strange and bloodthirsty personality.
"The Song of Cutting Grass" is about using killing to nourish energy!
Chen Kuang even felt as if a light had suddenly opened his eyes. Perhaps... Huo Hengxuan joined the army not only for the reason of rebelling against the Galan Temple, but also to imitate Pei Hanzheng and find a suitable path for practicing "The Song of Cutting Grass".
However, if "The Song of Cutting Grass" was Pei Hanzheng's own martial art, then when he discovered that the stranger Chen Kuang was also practicing the same martial art, he would definitely think that the only possibility was that he was stealing the skills.
This "Sword Saint" who has been unruly throughout his life would definitely not be so friendly...
So there is only one possibility left, that "The Grass-Cutting Song" was not created by the "Sword Saint".
Thinking of this, without issuing a warning, Chen Kuang raised his head and looked at Pei Hanzheng, testing him:
"Exactly...but the boy has only studied one chapter."
Chen Kuang only got the "Withering and Flourishing" chapter of "The Song of Cutting Grass" from Huo Hengxuan.
From the way it was named, we can tell that the "Grass-Cutting Song" that Chen Kuang is practicing now is not complete.
Pei Hanzheng nodded and said:
“Which one of Xi’s?”
This is meant to be a pointer!
Chen Kuang was shocked and bowed respectfully, saying, "The Chapter of Withering and Flourishing."
If a person who has been canonized as a saint in the way of the sword is willing to give him some advice, even just one or two words, it will definitely be of great benefit to him at his current stage.
Pei Hanzheng's expression seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then he shook off the snow on his body and stood up suddenly.
"Withering and Flourishing Chapter?"
Chen Kuang was confused and nodded: "The chapter of withering and flourishing."
He thought for a moment and then recited, "Killing people is like cutting grass; it withers and grows in a split second... A living sword needs dead men, and if you kill someone, you must kill me."
He has now reached a bottleneck in his practice of the Qi-nourishing Sword Technique.
The sword that killed the living creatures materialized and there have been no new changes for a long time.
Chen Kuang could feel that this killing sword existing in his consciousness was seeking an opportunity for transformation.
Simply killing people is no longer enough to satisfy its transformation.
If you want to transform, you need the scabbard in the long river of "time" on the ancient battlefield.
Although he didn't know the connection between the Killing Sword and the scabbard, Chen Kuang had a vague feeling that they might have been one and the same...
Now the only way to re-enter the long river of "time" lies in another part of Pei Hanzheng's avenue.
This sword technique is given to me, and if you want to ask for guidance, in-depth communication is inevitable.
Furthermore...
Chen Kuang's gaze fell on Pei Hanzheng's completely exposed body.
The middle-aged man's body buried in the snow was extremely withered, almost like a piece of rotten wood, skinny and as if it could break at any time.
He has run out of energy and is waiting for the end of his life in Xushi Mountain.
No wonder his attitude was so gentle... It turned out that Chen Kuang was not wrong, but he might be the last person the "Sword Saint" saw when he was alive.
Pei Hanzheng's body swayed, and he barely supported himself with the Taia sword in his hand.
He coughed twice and looked at Chen Kuang with burning eyes:
"I thought I would never see the outline of 'The Grass-Cutting Song' in my lifetime."
