For a pure swordsman, his sword is his Tao. What kind of sword he wants to cultivate is the way he wants to cultivate, and what kind of swordsmanship he wants to cultivate.
The thoughts in the heart are all the actions of Tao.
Therefore, his swordsmanship is also a reflection of his inner Taoism.
As for Lu Yan, she entered the sect since she was a child, stepped into the path of immortality, and has been working hard to practice swordsmanship.
Her talent is not particularly good, but she is dedicated to moving forward, practicing the sword day and night, never leaving her body with the sword, and never slacking off, and she is not willing to lag behind others.
When others were practicing their swords, she was also practicing them; when others were putting away their swords and resting, she was still practicing their swords; when others had completely put down their swords, she was still practicing their swords...
With such diligence and dedication, he has gone smoothly from foundation building to pill formation, and now he has entered the middle stage of pill formation.
Although there have been bottlenecks along the way from the foundation building stage to the core forming stage, those are nothing now, so they are no big deal and don't worry about it.
In the Wanyan Sect, in the entire Jianfeng, there was no one who didn’t admire her, and no one who didn’t call her senior sister with sincere reverence.
Just because she, Lu Yan, was a pure swordsman, a swordsman that made all the disciples in Jianfeng look back.
Therefore, at this time, Lu Yan was asking Shi Yao: What kind of sword is the most powerful sword, and what kind of kendo is the most powerful kendo.
But in fact, Lu Yan is also asking: Is there a kind of Tao in this world that is the most powerful Tao? She wants to find such a way, so that she can devote herself to the way and practice hard in the rest of her life, so as to become the strongest person.
But everyone's Tao is different, and everyone's perception of each Tao is also different.
Some people's Tao is realized through powerful Taoism. Not only do they need to understand the Tao, but they also need to practice the techniques in the Tao. Finally, when the Taoism reaches great perfection, they can realize the Tao.
However, the Tao of human beings belongs to the mind and only needs to be comprehended, enlightened and enlightened. From enlightenment, enlightenment and then to enlightenment, it is just the pursuit of knowing everything in the world, understanding all thoughts, and realizing that every thought is Dharma, then you can achieve the Tao...
Therefore, Tao has a name and a form, or it can be nameless and formless.
——These are all independent and unique inner understandings of individuals, which are difficult to reproduce and are not the same.
At the same time, everyone should be very careful when making their own choice of Tao. After all kinds of considerations, they should voluntarily understand, practice, and realize the Tao after truly enlightening their hearts.
As for Lu Yan, her master is Elder Lu, the True Lord of the Nascent Soul of Jianfeng. Elder Lu must have already thought about her future cultivation path and guided and arranged it step by step.
At the same time, Lu Yan herself had slowly formed her own concepts of right and wrong, opinions and persistence under the influence of her master.
Therefore, Shi Yao was not Lu Yan's master, so how could he interfere with the path of other apprentices at will?
——This is why, when Lu Yan came to ask Shi Yao for advice on the first day, Shi Yao just looked at her indifferently and did not immediately agree to give her advice.
But in the end, Lu Yan's persistence and "sincerity" moved Shi Yao.
And because Lu Yan was willing to pay for this, and since Shi Yao had accepted her "cultivation", it was natural that he should give her guidance and clear away the fog for her.
This is a fair transaction, nothing to criticize or criticize.
Furthermore, Lu Yan actually had a vague realization in her heart, and she had longed for it in her heart.
It's just that she can't see her own heart clearly for a while. It's like a leaf blinding her eyes. She's still in the dark, so she can't touch her true Tao.
Therefore, Shi Yao only needs to help Lu Yan clarify the true desire in her heart and let her understand her heart thoroughly, so that she can truly understand and decide what path she will take in the future.
——Shi Yao knew this, and Lu Yan also felt it in his heart.
She is willing to walk that way, she wants to touch that way, then she, Shi Yao, will help her.
Therefore, Shi Yao did not answer her "What is the most powerful sword and what is the most powerful way of swordsmanship."
Instead, he asked her: "Why do you want to cultivate the most powerful sword, why do you want to cultivate the most powerful swordsmanship?"
Hearing this, Lu Yan lowered her head and thought for a long time.
Finally, she raised her head, looking at Shi Yao with burning eyes, and expressed her most desired thoughts word by word:
“If you possess the most powerful sword in the world, it will not be broken easily; if you cultivate the most powerful sword technique in the world, you will be able to cut through thorns and become invincible.
I want to get the most powerful sword, cultivate the most powerful swordsmanship, and stand at the pinnacle of the world, so that nothing in the world can make me at a loss or helpless.
I want to be at ease in this world, coming and going without any worries.
But, what kind of sword is the strongest sword, and what kind of kendo is the strongest kendo? "
Shi Yao also stared back at her, with a cold sword light emitting from his eyes.
There seemed to be a magical power in her eyes, causing her voice to hit Lu Yan's ears.
For a moment, Lu Yan seemed to hear a vague inner voice talking to him, and then it seemed like a thunder suddenly sounded in his soul:
"Swords and kendo, all strength and weakness are always only in the person holding the sword. If you are strong, the sword will be strong; if you are weak, the sword will be weak.
And isn’t your sword always by your side? Isn’t your way always in your heart? So, why do you still want to search for the sword, why do you still want to search for the Tao? "
Hearing this, Lu Yan's eyes slowly froze, as if she suddenly fell into endless killing.
She saw streaks of sword light flashing crazily, and a huge heavy sword killing invincible, invincible...
Immediately, she seemed to slowly fall into unconscious memories again, and that scene appeared over and over again in her mind:
Boom——
Her sword was broken.
The sixth-level monster opened its mouth wide and bit down hard.
And she resisted with her own hands and never gave up.
——She was unwilling, she didn’t want to, she didn’t want to, and she couldn’t just die helplessly. She wants to live, she wants to live for a long time, and there are many, many things she wants.
And her Tao has always been in her sword, but now her sword has long been broken.
But her sword is still by her side, and her Tao is always in her heart.
Buzz——
A sword sound rang through his ears and came into view - it was the sword of Zhenjun Shi Yao.
Buzz——
Another sword intention buzzed out of Lu Yan's body, the golden light flashed, and the sword buzzed - that was Lu Yan's own sword intention, a sword intention that she had long understood.
But now, her sword intention was filled with unwillingness and unyielding killing intent.
Just like the tough grass in the downpour, although it was smashed to pieces by the raindrops, it still stubbornly raised its head, unwilling to admit defeat, unwilling to be subdued, and wanted to completely swallow up the rain that fell.
