"What's wrong?"
Long Qianyu was getting ready to sleep, but when she saw Xiao Ye coming to her, he seemed to have something on his mind, so he was curious to know.
"Teacher, I want to enter the illusion formation." Xiao Ye said directly.
Long Qianyu looked at Xiao Ye for a long time, and finally nodded.
He took Xiao Ye out and activated his magic array. This magic array was brought back by her. It is usually at the foot of Qingling Peak, but through some special techniques, it can be entered at will even on the entire Qingling Peak.
It was placed at the foot of the mountain, mainly because there were still disciples who wanted to cultivate their mental state, but she didn't want others to go up the mountain, so she finally placed it there. There were other people stationed there, and she controlled the entire center.
Xiao Ye sat quietly while Long Qianyu activated the magic array.
Nothing changed around him, Long Qianyu was still there. Of course, in the blink of an eye, Long Qianyu disappeared.
And he looked around. The illusion here seemed to have changed, and it seemed very familiar.
Here was the sword tomb he had seen before, surrounded by densely packed swords. In front of him, there was this big mountain. It's just that the mountain in front of me seems to have a mediocre response. Compared with the surrounding places full of swords, this mountain seems to be bald.
Without any hesitation or any thoughts, he walked straight towards the top of the mountain.
One step after another, each step looks extremely tenacious.
When they reached the top of the mountain, there was a sword stuck somewhere, but the sword had serious cracks and seemed about to break at any time.
There is an extremely terrifying murderous aura surrounding the sword. The crimson sword and the blood-red murderous aura look extremely conspicuous. From a distance, they are so terrifying.
Although the murderous aura trembled, it did not put any pressure on the life of any object.
However, when Xiao Ye came around, the sound of squirming sand on the ground made the murderous aura suddenly land on him. In this murderous aura, Xiao Ye felt coldness, fear, and other negative emotions, and an extremely depressing emotion surged into his heart.
He resisted this pressure and approached the red sword. He wanted to reach out and touch the sword.
Unexpectedly, the vague murderous aura around him suddenly turned into a sharp sword aura, which cut through his clothes and skin. The wounds were invisible, but the reddish blood could be seen, so quickly.
The wound had already closed before the blood even flowed out.
When he retracted his hand, the sword aura once again transformed into murderous aura. This is what Xiao Ye thinks in his own heart, a state of self-protection.
This act of self-protection brought his thoughts back to the past.
In the past, when he was alone, in the dark night or on a thunderstorm day, he would hide alone on the bed, wrapping himself tightly in the quilt. The slightest disturbance outside would make him wary.
Because of this, he vaguely remembered smashing an uncle who was worried about him and came to visit him with a cup to a bloody head. I don't know why, but from that time on, not only did he not feel afraid, but he became more and more sensitive to that kind of danger.
He kept mobilizing his own strength, trying to pull out the sword.
Unexpectedly, the sword left its place and flew three feet away. The murderous aura around him gradually transformed into a human form, a blood-red illusory figure, grabbing the broken red sword.
Xiao Ye looked at the figure. This might be Chi Jian's soul, but that soul was the same as he was when he first came to this world more than ten years ago.
"Since you have already abandoned me, why do you have to come here again?"
The hoarse voice came from somewhere in the shadow. Rather than saying that this was the sound of murderous intent, it was better that it was the sound of the red sword.
"Why do you say that?" Xiao Ye said lightly: "I have never abandoned you. You just exist in another form. Although your body is destroyed, your soul is still there."
"Look at the murderous aura around here. These are not my power at all, nor should they belong to me. You leave me here and let these terrible murderous auras destroy my body. What shame do you have?" These!"
"I will fight with you and become stronger with you until I can no longer follow you. Finally, being buried in the sword tomb is where I belong. However, you should not let these powers that do not belong to me and are not suitable for me remain. Wretched on my body.”
"Don't you just want to find your own heart? Isn't this your heart? It's cold, murderous, vicious, fearful... The person I once accompanied in the war was just a pretender."
Xiao Ye listened to the other party's voice quietly, but his mood did not change at all.
After all, he has already experienced it once and ended that experience. It is impossible for him to fall into a knot of heart this time like that time.
"In that case, you think this is not your power, but why are you using this power to talk to me? Or do you want to say that this is what I imposed on you, replacing your original power, and you want to strip it away? Is there no way?" Xiao Ye said lightly, and then used his own power to condense a transparent sword.
"It seems that fists always speak hard. Just look at whether the fists are invisible or tangible, whether they are verbal or physical. Only when I convince you can you listen to me properly."
clang!
In a teleportation, the two sides collided together, and sparks suddenly flew around. The collision of weapons was deafening, and it was the most primitive collision sound.
However, Xiao Ye's whole body no longer had that murderous aura, and everything turned into the most primitive sword aura. Those sword auras were very ordinary and ordinary, and even the way he used the sword had become the most basic swordsmanship, without any changes, changes or changes.
It is the most primitive method, the original swordsmanship.
And the red sword, the figure transformed by the murderous aura, is not only entangled with the murderous aura, but also has the power of the flames of the red sword itself.
In an instant, the surrounding red murderous aura turned into blood-orange flame murderous aura, and finally turned into sword aura.
After just a few rounds, Xiao Ye was already injured all over his body. However, these injuries were all skin injuries and could not even damage his muscles or bones at all. No matter how much Chi Sword attacked, he could not hit him to the ground.
"What? Is this your strength?" Xiao Ye said lightly: "Yes, you are just a sword. You don't even have a spirit, so where did you get a soul? Your soul was given by others, and I helped you. Resuscitated.”
"Even if you have your own soul, you are just a sword. Without someone who controls you, you can't do anything."
"Just like me now, your moves are all invisible and unintentional. As a result, you can only hurt me, but you can't hit me. Without me, you are just an ordinary weapon. Without me, You are the only one who can be called a divine weapon."
In its current form, the red sword seems to have become a real person, while Xiao Ye has become the inner demon.
In his words, it is to take the villain's path and leave the villain with no way to go.
"If one sword doesn't work, then use two swords. If two swords don't work, then use three swords. I will keep slashing until I cut you into pieces, and finally replace you, proving that I don't need you." Chi Jian said, this kind of His reaction was just like the reaction he had when he saw his inner demon for the first time: guilty, scared, and terrified.
After all, the Red Sword is a sword. No matter how it attacks, there are only a few changes in its moves. It doesn't think about it and doesn't know how to adapt. After all, it's just a sword and has no ideas of its own.
Some are just sword skills given by the original controller. Even if they have their own souls, they are still the most primitive fighting methods.
After Xiao Ye became familiar with this, he did not rush to take action, but kept thinking about what he was doing?
Get Chi Jian’s approval?
Or should you look for your original intention from this red sword?
It didn't seem to be the case, and he didn't seem to know what he was doing here in the first place. However, the moment he came in, he seemed to understand again. This should be the legendary sudden cleverness.
Suddenly, Xiao Ye began to change his moves. With just one move, Chi Jian began to be unable to resist. In the next battle, Xiao Ye had the upper hand all by himself. Chi Jian only had the power to parry, and in the end he had no power to parry anymore.
Xiao Ye raised his sword an inch away from the shadow and said, "You are always here, so why are you avoiding me? You are not the sword, you are myself, but... our roles seem to be reversed. "
"To use a sentence someone said, that is, I walked out of the darkness and stood in the light, but you still stayed here."
"Actually, you just want to ask yourself whether you and I are soulmates, and whether you exist because of me?"
"Now I can tell you that you do not exist because of me, and I do not exist because of you. In this world composed of matter and energy, you and I are dependent on each other."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ye directly erased the shadow, and the murderous aura around him returned to Xiao Ye, lingering around him.
He picked up the red sword and stroked the cracks on it.
Suddenly, a voice sounded from his ear: "Are you confused again? Isn't this the answer you want? We are all one body, and we all rely on each other to exist."
Xiao Ye looked sideways and saw the inner demon that existed in the darkness of his heart.
"Didn't you disappear already? Why did you appear here again? Could it be that you came out to drink tea with me?" Xiao Ye said lightly.
"No, no, no, you are wrong. I have never disappeared. I have just become one with you. When darkness grows in your heart again and you become confused again, I will still appear in your presence. In front of me." Mirror Xiao Ye said.
"Why, are you confused this time, or are you doubting yourself?"
Xiao Ye did not look at him, but said lightly: "Are you confused? There is a little doubt, and there is also a little doubt, but darkness, this is indeed true. Since you have appeared, it means that I have always been Being in the dark.”
"Then what answers do you want to know now?"
"Answer?"
"No, I don't need the answer anymore. From the time I came here, everything seemed to be clear and everything seemed to have been figured out."
"The so-called sword heart, from the beginning, I didn't have it at all, it didn't exist at all. I practiced swords purely for self-protection, simply because this thing is easy to use, and there is no need to like it or not. There is no need for any reason, nor is it for the so-called ultimate perfection."
"I just do it for myself, and maybe sometimes, for the people I care about. This is the reason."
"People are not grass and trees, how can they be without desires? People are not sages, how can they be without desires."
"The sword is just a code name that people give it. Who said that a sword should look like this? Swords can be ever-changing. A piece of iron can be used as a sword, and a piece of wood can be used as a sword."
"A grass or a tree can kill the sun and the moon. Nothing is more than what you want, nothing more than what you want, but you have a clear conscience. You can have no reason, you can have reasons, you can not need anything, and you can also impose something. But... .”
"As long as you feel that everything you do is right, as long as you have a clear conscience and no regrets, you can still embark on the ultimate path. I am who I am, I don't need a reason, and I don't need the so-called sword heart, sword heart , is nothing more than a person’s cognitive identification with a thing.”
"You can like power, you can like playing, you can like doing chivalry and righteousness, these can all be used as the heart of your sword, and I...that is, I can do whatever my heart wants, whatever my heart wants, and I can also be unrestrained, dispensable, Lawlessness, this is the essence of killing, this is the real swordsmanship of killing!"
"Being selfish, having no regrets, being generous and repaying kindness, this is who I am."
When Xiao Ye looked over, the shadow of his inner demon had disappeared long ago.
He looked at the world around him, which seemed to be collapsing little by little, until finally the whole world disappeared.
Xiao Ye opened his eyes and saw the beautiful scenery of Qingling Peak.
He looked towards the sky, and then, the decisive killing sword intent around him was released, and the terrifying killing intent seemed to become more substantial. Although they were far apart, Xiao Ye's killing sword energy was still felt by the people in Jianlai Peak.
Even though they are thousands of miles apart, it makes people feel chilling.
"This is...the teacher's breath." Ye Tianxin also felt Xiao Ye's movement and looked in the direction of Qingling Peak. At the same time, there are Shen Lingfeng, the talented disciples of Jianlai Peak.
"With this trend, it seems that the sword intention is about to break through to the realm of perfect God-seeing."
"The terrifying sword intent, this murderous intent is stronger and purer than before."
As these disciples watched and sensed, they seemed to be able to see a sword-gang energy on Qingling Peak breaking through the mountains and rising straight into the sky.
It felt like being famous in Xiaoshan Pass, with a sword looking into the distance of 90,000 miles.
At this moment, Xiao Ye finally broke through the realm of Zongheng and came to the realm of God-seeing, which is the final realm of Dzogchen Sword Intent.
Xiao Ye felt the changes in himself, Zongheng and Peeping God. Although there was only such an inconspicuous small realm division, it was indeed a great breakthrough. He could already peek into the avenue of swords.
Before he could feel it carefully, suddenly, there was another surge of extremely violent energy.
The surrounding auras of heaven and earth were all flowing in one direction. Xiao Ye looked and saw that it was the direction of Qinglian Peak. With such power and the changes in the magnetic field of the sky and earth, this was Duan Tianya Peak's main breakthrough.
“I didn’t expect there would be an unexpected surprise.”
