"I was just chatting and almost forgot something important." The man who chatted for a few more words slapped his forehead for no reason and turned to Yun Zhong with a smile, "If I remember correctly, this sword is for this young man in the future. Brother, my master specifically told me that this sword was made according to ancient methods. Although the materials used are not the best in the world, the craftsmanship can be regarded as elegant. Therefore, the moment it is opened, it still needs a little brother. Walk closer, pour your whole body's spiritual power and mind into it, and open up the sword's spirit."
Yun Zhong didn't know why, but Liu Qing beside him remembered the origin of the word "Kai Ling". He was a little embarrassed for a moment, so he spoke on behalf of the young man: "This method of Kai Ling was originally recorded in ancient books. It is said that it was a sword made by an immortal. When the furnace was opened, his own extraordinary realm and great merits were poured into it, so that the sword embryo contained spiritual wisdom when it was born. It is not an exaggeration to say that more natal swords were born out of thin air, but in later generations, the practice was withered, and the technique of opening the spirit was rarely used. An example of raising a sword. My little junior brother’s spiritual practice is still very shallow. If he forcibly opens his spirit, I’m afraid he will be hurt.”
"No, no," the man said and waved his hands quickly, "Although I don't know much about spiritual practice, my master once said unintentionally that if you follow one thing to open your soul, you will not open your soul to that. It is not a copy of the ancient immortals and sages. The method is just to let your own energy and spirit slightly affect the sword embryo, so that the sword will be more rounded and smooth in the future, and will not give rise to spiritual wisdom. Naturally, it does not require a high level, so it should be harmless."
As soon as he talked about forging swords and forging iron, this very strong man's speech became obviously sharper. He no longer felt the embarrassment of not being able to convey what he meant when they first met, and he spoke out the master's words he had heard before, like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.
It turns out that this spiritual enlightenment is indeed not the spiritual enlightenment of ancient times. In ancient times, to open the spirit and raise the sword, you need to have a cultivation level that is not inferior to the extreme level, and you must do good deeds in order to gain merit. Only by adding all kinds of merits and virtues can you perform the method of opening the spirit when forging the sword. Once the sword is completed, it will have When spiritual wisdom is added to the body, it is said to be powerful.
It is said that in the past, there was an immortal who broke through the extreme realm. He spent a hundred years traveling around the world, helping people and trying to save the common people. He successively quelled famine, chaos, fire and floods for a total of eighty-one calamities. With his merits, he opened eighty-one swords and connected them into swords. There was a formation, and when the sword formation was completed, the whole world shook, and the immortal stepped on the rainbow and soared, missing where he was.
Although I don't know where the ascension is going, the power contained in this Kailing move is indeed extremely powerful.
Even so, the Kailing Style has long been lost in time and is no longer visible to the world. Suicune is worthy of possessing great supernatural powers. After reading through the ancient books, he will be able to sort out the context of the spirit-opening technique. Although it is not as powerful as recorded in the ancient books, it will also lower the threshold for spiritual enlightenment to an extremely low level, even for new practitioners. , you can also inject your energy and spirit into the sword, making the sword more skillful. After spending a long time talking about the man, the scholar's eyebrows were still twisted together.
It's not that he doesn't believe in Suicune's method of opening spirits, but the state of his junior brother is really hard to describe.
Shui Lord personally held the battle, and the quality of the sword in the furnace was needless to say. It was naturally of the highest quality. But because of this, Liu Qing was always uneasy. If he has the cultivation level of the second or third realm, he doesn't have to worry too much and can just let his junior disciple step forward to open his spirit. But now, a young man who has not yet perfected his first realm, if he cannot suppress the sword in the furnace, it will make him angry. With his energy and spirit depleted, he couldn't explain it to his master when he returned to the mountain gate. Even Liu Qing himself felt very sorry.
"Junior brother, are you really willing to perform a spirit-opening move?" The scholar calmed down for a long time, then the solemn expression on his face calmed down, and he asked the young man gently, but his fingers were still clasped.
As early as just now, Yun Zhong saw his senior brother's brows tightening, and he suddenly had some enlightenment in his heart. After all, he has been in the world for a long time. Even though there are still many things that are unclear, he can still detect some abnormalities.
"Senior brother, if you think it's inappropriate, then I won't do it," the young man looked at the rising spiritual energy in the shop and said softly, "Probably with this senior's ability, even if I can't open the spiritual world, I'm probably not good enough. Not too much, not in the way.”
"But I still want to try."
I came all the way south from Shangqi, crossed the borders of the Three Kingdoms, and suffered many injuries. However, of the few white robes I bought at the beginning, there were still two pieces left. After being starched and washed several times, they were wrapped in thick clothes by the young man, but they still didn't work. Dirty with dust.
The scholar looked at the young man's robe and suddenly laughed.
"Go and open the spirit."
Probably because of the chaos and uncertainty these days, he himself had forgotten Suicune's teachings a while ago. How could care lead to chaos and destroy the young man's pure sword heart? I'm afraid if this continues, even if he brings his junior brother back to the mountain gate intact, his master will have to scold him a few times.
It’s better to just let it go.
The sky is big and the earth is big, no matter how big it is, you can break it.
The man wanted to say something more, but after hearing the scholar's words, he suppressed all the words of advice. He felt puzzled for a while: These two brothers were so strange. They were so stubborn in trying to comfort them, why did they just blink of an eye? He changed his words again, which was a little weird.
How could a man who has lived in a blacksmith shop all year long know that the moment the scholar spoke, the young man in white suddenly relaxed his mind.
It's like the north wind blowing across the rice fields, blowing across thousands of miles of plains.
The old man sitting firmly in the blacksmith shop also opened his eyes, with a hint of approval in his eyes.
If it weren't for the young scholar's two words, even if it took seven days to work on this good sword, he would rather let it rot in the furnace. But since this boy wants to give it a try, and the scholar is also willing to let this boy give it a try, there's nothing wrong with using this sword.
Inside the ancestral hall, in the wellhead that was dilapidated to the point of rubble and dirt, several rays of water came out, and instantly merged into the sword furnace, all of which were collected into the still red sword body, but the water light was still water light, The fire is still the fire.
The sun and the moon nourish Lancang Qi, and the water and fire are also in the same furnace.
The old man who was still sweeping the floor in the ancestral hall raised his head and looked in the direction of the blacksmith shop. Although it was several houses away, the old man still did not want to miss it. He is a person who knows how to forge iron and cast blades. Now that the furnace is about to start, he will not miss such a spectacular scene.
"What a big noise." The old man curled his lips.
But the entire Qinshui Town clearly remained motionless, and when the old man curled his lips, there was clearly no trace of ridicule.
"Young man, please come forward." Shuijun, who looked like an old man, waved from a distance, "This sword has been burned for seven days and struck with thousands of hammers. As the master of the sword, you are unwilling to suffer even the slightest. Some of them are unjustifiable.”
The young man stepped forward and smiled softly when he heard this, "Is it possible that the seniors also want to give the younger generation a few blows?"
Shui Jun smiled even more, "No, as long as you and the sword bear the power of Lancang Water, your spirit will be enlightened, which will also be beneficial to your future cultivation and state of mind; it's just that this Lancang Water is different. Water, if you are forced to bear its pressure, your muscles, bones, and meridians will suffer severe pain, and your mind will also be shaken and unstable. If you cannot stabilize your mind, your cultivation will inevitably be damaged."
After that, Shuijun took the young man in front of him and said, "I just want to ask you one question, do you dare?"
However, the young man did not reply. Instead, he turned his head and shouted to the man outside the shop, "My senior brother has been standing outside the door for several hours. It will take some time until the spirit opening technique is complete. Please brother." I'll lend you a bench for senior brother to sit down, and I'll thank you later when things are done here."
"Senior please."
