Chapter 588: Enlightenment of the Lijiang Fairy
night.
The roof eaves of Yuexian Pavilion.
The fairy of Lijiang River only wore a white lining and a thin gauze coat, with her waist simply tied with a red ribbon. Her long black hair fell casually on her shoulders like a waterfall. Her jade-like face was filled with melancholy at the moment, and her red lips were slightly closed, as if her eyes were gazing at the cold moon, revealing a loneliness isolated from the world.
There is a beauty in the north, peerless and independent.
One smile can conquer a city, another smile can conquer a country.
A faint laugh sounded from the eaves.
Fairy Lijiang turned her eyes slightly, and when she saw the person coming, her cheeks flushed slightly, "Brother Shen, why are you here?"
Shen Ping also sat down on the eaves, with his legs hanging down, and said with a smile, "Luckily I came, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the night view of such a beautiful woman under the moon."
Listen to this kind of praise.
The thin-skinned Lijiang Fairy lowered her head in embarrassment, "I, I'm not a beauty."
Shen Ping shrugged, half-lying on the eaves, resting his head on his hands, looking at the bright moon in the sky, "The most beautiful lady in Lijiang Academy, Yao Xian, if you are not a beauty, then the whole world is wrong. However, no matter if you are a beauty or an ordinary person, everyone has their own worries. The world is full of troubles, and even a real exiled fairy will have three thousand worries."
Fairy Lijiang bit her red lips lightly, "Brother Shen, how do you know that banished immortals also have troubles?"
"Because I am!"
“Puff…”
Fairy Lijiang was amused. Looking at Shen Ping's carefree look, she shook her head repeatedly, "There is no such a banished fairy as you in the world."
As she said this she sighed softly.
Shen Ping didn't say anything else.
During the day, this girl was full of sword spirit and defeated several land immortals on the Qiankun list in one breath. But at night, she lamented with a pitiful look on her face.
There was silence for a while.
Fairy Lijiang was the first to lose patience. She glanced at Shen Ping and expressed her worries. "Tomorrow I will be sparring with Taixuan Sword Fairy from Wenjian Tower. I heard that her ruthless swordsmanship has become increasingly powerful in recent years. But I haven't even crossed the threshold of the affectionate swordsmanship yet. Normally, if I lose, I just lose. But now it's a swordsmanship exchange competition, and it's being held in the academy..."
"If I lose, it means that the compassionate swordsmanship of the academy is not as good as the ruthless swordsmanship of the Sword Questioning Tower."
Shen Ping pulled the corner of his mouth.
He guessed that the girl was worried about this matter.
Apart from the matter with his friend from the Demon Country, the other party had very little else in mind.
"Junior Sister Yao is very concerned about the difference in sword skills between the Academy and the Sword Questioning Tower?"
Fairy Lijiang hugged her legs and shook her head gently, "I don't care, but the Palace Master does, and all the students in the academy care. The sword-fighting dispute between my Lijiang Academy and Wenjian Tower has a long history. Previously, my academy always suppressed Wenjian Tower, but now, I am not sure."
During the day, the ruthless swordsmanship of the Taixuan Sword Immortal Huo Ru was indeed very powerful. If they were to be compared, the Li Shui sword intent alone was no match.
Because the sword immortal's ruthless swordsmanship has already entered the Tao, this is not the basic Tao such as gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but the Tao of both compassion and non-compassion, which is a branch of the true swordsmanship.
If we talk about levels.
The compassionate and merciless sword art is equivalent to the advanced avenue of heaven and earth.
Complete mastery.
Incredibly powerful.
This kind of Tao mainly depends on the state of mind. To put it bluntly, the strength of the sword intent is determined by the state of mind.
Shen Ping looked at the profile of Fairy Lijiang. He knew that the academy's number one genius was in a state of confusion at the moment. He was disturbed by too much invisible pressure and was also affected by the sword skills shown by Huo Ru.
In his opinion.
These invisible shackles, burdens, and various worldly troubles are also part of the Great Dao, just like himself, who is running around for Emperor Tianhong, for the realm of immortals, and to obtain the authority of the bracelet.
Only some people can bear it.
Some people can't bear it.
After experiencing many palace worlds and practicing for so many years, he was no longer surprised by anything. However, this world was quite special. No matter it was the sword intent, the sword way, or other weapon skills, they would be disturbed by the state of mind and will.
Therefore, once the swordsman is unable to bear the shackles of the mundane world, his swordsmanship will be damaged.
The same is true of the ruthless swordsmanship of Wenjian Tower.
If one does not forget emotions too much, the sword path that one is pursuing will be greatly affected, and it is common for one's realm to fall and one's strength to be greatly damaged.
And this phenomenon is not uncommon.
"Do you like sword practice?"
Think about it.
Shen Ping asked.
Fairy Lijiang nodded vigorously. "I have been practicing swordsmanship since I was a child. The sword has become a part of my life. No, it is a part of my life. But I don't know how to practice the way of the sword with love. I like mountains and rivers, plants and trees, and every part of the academy, but I want to practice swordsmanship in peace and quiet."
Hearing this.
Shen Ping understood, and he smiled, "Everything in the world has spirits, and your sword also has spirits. As long as something has spirits, it will have feelings. Junior Sister Yao, have you ever used your sword to communicate with mountains and rivers, or with plants and trees?"
Fairy Lijiang turned around and blinked, "Can a sword communicate with mountains, rivers, plants and trees?"
"certainly."
Speaking of.
He floated down from the eaves into the yard, then walked to the flower bed not far away. He put his fingers together, and a soft sword light spurted out from his fingertips. Suddenly, the flowers and plants in the flower bed swayed and grew as if in joy.
The Fairy of Lijiang River stood beside Shen Ping, her eyes full of surprise.
"The world is full of affection, including all living things, but it is also ruthless. It will not change according to the will of plants, trees, mountains and rivers. The only thing that can change is your heart. If your heart is full of affection, you can embrace everything, just like the sea embraces all rivers."
“This is the way of compassion.”
Shen Ping smiled, and the sword light on his fingertips turned into a flower and a grass, and then into a dancing flame. "Follow what you like. The sword is pure, why should it be stained by dust?"
Fairy Lijiang was already gifted. It was just that if I said these words normally, it wouldn't be of much use. But now it was different. She was in a state of emotional instability, so with a little guidance, as long as her comprehension was not too bad, she would be able to understand.
"Junior sister, do you still like swords?"
He looked into those eyes seriously.
Fairy Lijiang said softly, "I like it."
"So, as long as you have the sword in your hand, you have nothing to worry about."
"With a sword in hand, I am not afraid of anything."
The eyes of the Fairy of Lijiang River gradually lit up, "The sword is pure, like the sea embracing all rivers. My sword is everything in the world..."
Shen Ping floated to the eaves again, and in the courtyard, a graceful figure dressed in white gauze had unknowingly started practicing swordsmanship.
This sword technique is actually the Water-Dividing Sword Technique.
Originally, Fairy Lijiang had only mastered less than 30% of the Water-Dividing Sword Technique, but now it has been directly improved to 60%, and her sword intent has already grasped the essence of the Water-Dividing Sword Technique.
See this scene.
He couldn't help but sigh that this was truly an absolute genius in swordsmanship. With just a little instruction, he was able to step into the path of compassionate swordsmanship.
Wait until Fairy Lijiang finishes her sword skills.
When she was about to bow to the eaves to express her gratitude, the sloppy and lazy figure had disappeared. She couldn't help laughing, but still said, "Thank you, senior brother."
…
The following kendo exchange.
Shen Ping did not go to watch the game again. From the moment he saw Fairy Lijiang comprehend the way of the affectionate sword that night, he knew that the outcome was no longer in suspense.
At this time, he followed the man in black with his true spirit mark on his body and came to an ordinary house in a county near Lijiang City.
The man in black was extremely alert, but unfortunately he still didn't notice that someone was following him.
There are secret passages in this house.
Follow the secret passage.
The man in black actually turned back to the Lijiang Academy and reached the main peak.
This surprised Shen Ping very much.
He really didn't expect that there was such a secret and long secret passage under the main peak, and it seemed that the passage was forged with special materials and coated with medicine on the surface to prevent detection.
Of course, the main reason was that he did not use his true soul power to extend underground.
"Meet the Master!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The man in black saluted respectfully.
Shen Ping narrowed his eyes. The master of the Jin Hall in front of him was actually an immortal. Judging from his aura, he was in the middle stage of the immortal realm. However, from the sword aura he exuded, it was actually the sword technique of the Lijiang Academy.
"The Marquis of Zhenbei has already comprehended the true secret of swordsmanship from the landscape scroll, which should be a set of swordsmanship. There is no point in stealing the landscape scroll. The most urgent task is to get the swordsmanship from the Marquis of Zhenbei."
This powerful immortal said.
The man in black was shocked. "The Marquis of Zhenbei actually figured it out? Hall Master, if that's the case, I'm afraid it will require the help of the Immortal Realm. The Marquis of Zhenbei is extremely powerful, and I am no match for him."
The head of the Jintang Hall nodded, "I know, this Zhenbei Marquis is very strange. I suspect that the things on the former Zhenbei Marquis' body were left to his son, otherwise it would be impossible to reach this level in such a short time. While we are exchanging sword skills, you go to the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion and search it carefully to see if you can find that thing!"
The man in black hesitated and said, "Master, we searched the place inside and out. Judging from the clues, it should be in the Imperial Capital or Emperor Mountain."
"Why, are you questioning my orders?"
"Master, please calm down. I am just expressing my opinion."
"Humph, what you did back then was not clean. If I hadn't protected you, you would be a dead man now!"
"Search quickly. As for the Marquis of Zhenbei, we have our own way to deal with him."
"yes!"
Wait for the man in black to leave.
Shen Ping used special means to leave his true soul power on the master of the Jintang. Unless the other party's true soul power broke through to the Immortal King level, it would be extremely difficult to discover this tracking method.
Stayed for a while.
He saw the Master of the Golden Hall walk into a special secret room. Inside the secret room was an oval stone platform. The stone platform was covered with mysterious patterns. When the patterns were activated and shining, the Master of the Golden Hall disappeared.
Shen Ping blinked. Is this long-distance teleportation? There is actually such a thing in this world!
It is very difficult to teleport over long distances. One must have a deep knowledge of talisman arrays, but there is no such thing as talisman array studies here. However, the runes on the stone platform are very mysterious, and may have been left behind by the owner of Jiehai Peak back then.
"Bloodline Talisman Formation."
I studied it carefully.
He frowned. This type of talisman array can only be activated with special blood. It is not realistic to want to follow it.
"Forget it. Anyway, the mark of the True Spirit has been left behind. There is no way to escape!"
"What on earth are they looking for? Could it be that my father's rapid rise to prominence was due to some kind of treasure?"
With this doubt.
Shen Ping returned to the Lijiang City residence and asked Madam Yu directly, "Mother, when my father went to the depths of the demon country, did he leave you any words or things?"
Madam Yu looked at Shen Ping and asked, "Why are you asking about this suddenly, my son? Your father left in a hurry and left nothing behind."
"Then my father didn't usually tell you about some special treasures or something like that?"
"No."
Staring at Madam Yu.
I wasn't lying, it seems like I really didn't know.
That's strange.
Doesn’t his father even trust the person next to him?
Or was it transferred to some other place?
No clues.
Shen Ping could only suppress this matter, he was just slightly interested in it.
A few days later.
The kendo exchange officially came to an end.
As expected, the Lijiang Academy won the first place in the exchange competition, and the Lijiang Fairy even won the top spot on the Qiankun Ranking, earning the admiration of swordsmen all over the world.
Inside the guest peak.
Taixuan Sword Immortal Huo Ru said coldly, "How did she enter the Way of the Emotional Sword? Compared to the Supreme Forgetfulness of the Sword Tower, the Way of the Emotional Sword is the most difficult to enter!"
Originally, this time, she comprehended the ruthless sword art and vowed to take back the glory of the Sword-Wen Tower, but it turned out that the Lijiang Fairy Residence actually stepped into the affectionate sword art.
Although there is no distinction between high and low in kendo.
But the Sword of Affection is superior to the Sword of Ruthlessness, at least this has been the case judging from the struggles throughout the ages. It's just that the way of the Sword of Affection is difficult to comprehend, especially in the realm of immortals on earth, which very few people can enter.
You Jianzi said, "Huo World, the girl surnamed Yao should have just entered. I heard that she is very close to the Marquis of Zhenbei. Many students have seen her. The Marquis of Zhenbei even goes to the mountain where she is at night. Maybe it is the Marquis of Zhenbei who is behind this."
"Pooh!"
"How shameless! A fairy from the academy is actually hooking up with the Marquis of Zhenbei. This matter is still a little strange."
Huo Ru gritted her teeth secretly. It was rumored that the Marquis of Zhenbei was well versed in sword arts and had a very high talent. The sword masters of the Sword Questioning Tower had all praised and wooed him, otherwise they would not have promised to marry the sword to him.
Jian Zi beside him said, "Let's stay in Lijiang Academy for a few more days. The Sword Master has also told us not to rush back."
Compared to the academy.
Wenjian Tower had been defeated many times, and even though it was almost certain to lose this time, there was not much pressure, and the Sword Master's purpose was not this exchange meeting, but mainly wanted to bring together Huo Ru and Zhenbei Hou.
Yuexian Pavilion.
Palace Master Yan showed a delighted expression, "Xian'er, you performed very well this time. I didn't expect that you could comprehend the Way of the Emotional Sword. It seems that my Lijiang Academy has a successor!"
Yao Xian hurriedly said, "All this is thanks to Senior Brother Shen. If it weren't for Senior Brother Shen's guidance that night, I still don't know how to step into the path of sentient swordsmanship."
She briefly recounted what happened that night.
Palace Master Yan was filled with emotion. "This Zhenbei Marquis is indeed a rough diamond. He has a deep understanding of the way of swordsmanship. He can comprehend the true meaning from the landscape scroll, which has already proved this point...Xian'er, now that you have entered the way of swordsmanship, you should prepare to break through the immortal realm."
"Ah... Palace Master, Immortal Realm, I, I am not very sure."
Yao Xian said nervously.
The eighth level of immortal is a huge hurdle.
Palace Master Yan smiled and said, "It's okay. You have accumulated enough knowledge and have entered the sword path. Sooner or later, you will be able to enter the immortal realm. The academy will also help you."
