For sword cultivators, sword intention and sword realm are interconnected, and as long as there is sword intention, sword realm will inevitably follow.
Let's take the analogy of painters in the world. An ordinary painter paints mountains and water. If he only paints mountains as mountains and water as water, he can only describe their appearance but not their character and charm. No matter how lifelike the painting is, It's so lifelike that he can only be a painter in his lifetime. The real landscape masters either have a few strokes or a lot of ink, and what they leave on paper are either the difficult journey on the steep mountains, or the solitary journey at the windy and snowy ferry, or the solitary lamp in the deserted village with thunder and thunder at night, or the There are many examples, such as the full moon hanging high on the clear spring stone, but they are all a perfect combination of scenery and charm. When people see it, they may feel something or understand something, and their hearts will yearn for it, and they will suddenly feel like they are immersed in the scene. It's been a long time since I've forgotten to return.
This is the artistic conception.
And sword cultivators also have their own artistic conception.
Of course, the artist's artistic conception is very different from that of the sword cultivator.
Even if the artist's paintings are full of charm and far-reaching artistic conception, they can only be left on paper and hung on the wall for people to look at. As long as the painting is not destroyed, the artistic conception will remain.
The artistic conception of a sword cultivator is completely different and cannot be seen by ordinary people. Whenever someone has the opportunity to see the artistic conception of another sword cultivator, either that person is not around or that sword cultivator has died, and there is nothing else. Other results.
Here, the sword cultivator can be regarded as a calligraphy and painting master who uses the sword as a pen. The so-called sword spirit is the combination of the sword cultivator's personal character, personal aura and personal will. It is the sword cultivator's overall aura that is reflected on his sword. Specific performance!
The former Fairy Lengyue once let Li Jian experience her sword power at the edge of the purple bamboo forest. She randomly picked a blade of grass and used the wild grass as a sword to demonstrate her sword posture. Li Jian felt as if she was standing tall. Looking up at the cold moon hanging high on the snowfield with the bone-chilling wind, that is Fairy Lengyue's sword intent. Well, I have to say that Fairy Lengyue's sword intent is almost the same as her usual personality.
The sword realm is different. Li Jian can understand Fairy Lengyue's sword intention, but he will never understand Fairy Lengyue's sword realm.
The so-called sword realm is a high-level method of sword cultivation to fight against enemies. Sword cultivators may acquire it after years of diligent practice, or those who are talented in the sword cultivation may have a rare opportunity. What I have understood is a "realm" that is similar to an illusion but is tangible and qualitative or intangible and qualitative, which is a combination of the sword cultivator's personal skills, temperament and will, and is embodied by his own sword energy!
This "realm" can be seen as a means for the sword cultivator to project the secret realm that he feels is the most comfortable and safest in his heart and turn it into a physical object. It can be regarded as a small world.
The biggest difference between illusion and sword realm is that illusion generally aims to confuse the opponent's mind, making them think that they are seeing or touching or experiencing some real things, but those are often fake, but It's because the master of illusion is very clever. Even if the person who has been affected by the illusion is tortured, he will only say that it is what really happened.
This is not the case in the Sword Realm. The Sword Realm is not about what the sword cultivator does to the opponent, but to himself. He changes the world around him from the inside out, thereby affecting the opponent in it. This change is first of all real. This will make it difficult for the opponent to escape.
Therefore, the sword realm is not an illusion, but a high-level sword cultivation method.
…
In the past, there were swordsmen who regarded becoming a demon as a kind of sword realm.
For example, Xiao Yi is in front of him. He is currently in a state of obsession. Obsession can also be regarded as a state where the inner demon is exposed or embodied. However, although this state is efficient, it is dangerous, and The threshold is extremely low, and almost any sword cultivator can use it, but the consequences are endless.
But today's sword cultivators no longer regard being possessed by a demon as a sword realm, but only regard it as their last resort.
Similar to being possessed by a demon, a sword cultivator with a sword realm can only use his sword realm to fight against the enemy when he encounters a strong opponent. Because of this, even though Li Jian can understand the sword intention of Fairy Lengyue, it is impossible for him to do so. The reason why I can appreciate the sword realm of Fairy Lengyue is because the sword realm can only be experienced in a life-and-death battle with a powerful enemy.
Sword intention is the foundation of sword realm, and sword realm is the embodiment of sword intent. Therefore, when a sword cultivator has his own sword intent, he will inevitably have his own sword realm.
Let's take Fairy Lengyue as an example. Her sword intention can be regarded as "cold and proud", and those who fought with her in the past and died in her sword realm died like the howling of the ice wind. He lay down and froze to death. Although there were sword wounds on his body, the ice all over his body was as hard as iron!
Another example is Yan Shuang's master, Mu Xiufeng's current elder in charge, senior Lu Suyang. Although he was a bit ambivalent about Li Jian's apprenticeship and was unwilling to have any conflicts with Mu Xiufeng's alchemy monks, in his early years this person was really His personality is somewhat harsh and paranoid. It was only after he became Mu Xiufeng's chief elder that he deliberately restrained his personality and became like a good old man who didn't want to offend anyone. His sword intention can be seen as "fierce as fire" "It is said that in the past, people who could die in his sword realm would be burned to death like burning fire!
Li Jian's sword intention can be seen as "hard and tough", just like the green bamboo in his hand.
As for Li Jian's sword realm, it is a vibrant and tough bamboo forest!
Li Jian's character is like a green bamboo. He is tough and a little harsh on people and things, but mostly for himself. In the past, when he was in the Liang Kingdom, his temperament was influenced by the elders in his family and could even be considered a bit arrogant. However, after entering the Five Dynasties After joining Lingzong, especially after getting to know Qian Chao and Tang Ping, his temperament changed a little, from being stubborn to being much more mellow, just like the green bamboo where he lived, which was knotted up and down but tough and mellow. And his sword realm is the embodiment of his temperament. It is a green and lush bamboo forest that changes in winter, with bamboo shoots moving like thunder, green leaves like washing, autumn wind and winter snow, proud and straight, upright. It is a true portrayal of this bamboo forest!
If Li Jian's sword realm is stimulated during a hard battle, and the opponent is trapped in a dense bamboo forest fighting Li Jian, this sword realm belongs to Li Jian, and as the creator, he will not be hindered by anything. He can come and go freely, but his opponent is extremely entangled in it. Not only is his body blocked by the bamboos, but even his methods are hindered. Even Li Jian's figure retreats slightly. In the eyes of his opponent, he is like It's as dangerous as hiding in the bamboo forest and waiting for opportunities!
This is why Xiao Yi could only choose to dodge and retreat when Li Jian's two sword attacks came. Even though he was possessed now, he couldn't let go when he was trapped in Li Jian's sword realm. He could only in this way.
The fact that Li Jian was able to possess his own sword realm had a lot to do with the enlightenment he had gained not long ago in the Sword Wood Forest in Jianzhong Mountain.
Just the last time they went out, Qian Chao and Li Jian's friends made plans to deal with Wen Liang in the future. That time was an opportunity for Li Jian. In the Jianmu Forest in Jianzhong Mountain, all the trees and bamboos in the forest are transformed from the living swords of the ancestors of sword cultivators in the past. The sword energy in the forest is dense, and the wood energy is soaring to the sky, and Li Jian is the sword of the wood spirit root. Practice, and what you practice is the method of materializing swords. Enlightenment in it is a great opportunity.
It's just that that time of enlightenment was just the beginning of Li Jian's sword intention. He vaguely understood the sword intention and sword realm that time, but he didn't understand it thoroughly. Today, after a hard battle with the possessed Xiao Yi, his legs The light that flashed through his mind when he struck the sword, which he had not grasped, showed that he was only a few centimeters away from comprehending the sword realm, or in other words, just a layer of window paper away from being able to pierce through it. The layer of window paper was the sword that Xiao Yi pierced his shoulder!
That sword removed all the obstacles in front of Li Jian's eyes, allowing Li Jian to take a big step forward on the path of sword cultivation. Therefore, Li Jian kept saying that he wanted to thank Xiao Yi.
As a sword cultivator, Yun Xi, who was deliberately plotting against Li Jian, could not even touch the edge of the sword intention at this time. Not only Yunxi, but also many of Mu Xiufeng's Foundation-Building Sword Cultivators, even if they have gained quite a reputation in the cultivation world with their own methods, they may not have even touched the edge of the sword intention. Generally speaking, After years of hard training in sword cultivation, if there is a chance to form an elixir, one must have one's own sword intention and sword realm before forming an elixir, otherwise there will be no hope of forming an elixir. Of course, there will also be Mu Xiufeng's sword cultivating disciples who can possess their own sword intention and sword realm during the Qi refining stage. Of course, such people are rare, which requires that this person has a good sword cultivating talent, and at the same time, he must have a A great opportunity, just like Li Jian now.
For sword cultivators, the sooner one possesses the Sword Intention Sword Realm, the better. The sooner one possesses it, the more extraordinary his achievements will be in the future. At the future "Cheng Guan En Trial", Li Jian showed his sword realm in front of many elders on the ring. It was then that the elders and seniors of Mu Xiufeng realized... Fairy Lengyue was indeed Of course, these are things for later.
Back to the present, Xiao Yi is already deeply trapped in Li Jian's sword realm. This is not an illusion, so even if he becomes a demon at this time, there is nothing he can do about this sword realm.
"do you understand?"
Li Jian's words made Xiao Yi, who was looking at it in a daze, feel angry in his heart!
He felt a burst of anger and bitterness in his heart. As mentioned before, Xiao Yi was originally a child of a small family of swordsmen in Qingzhou. Because he was unwilling to obey the arrangements of his elders, he killed several members of his family in anger. He escaped because of his brother, and the reason why he did this was precisely because of the favoritism of the elders in the family.
When aristocratic families fight within, what they fight for is nothing more than power and profit, even among the younger generations who are practicing Qi. The reason why he killed people was because the elders wanted to promote his close nephew, and the reason he used was that that person had already With Sword Intent and Sword Realm, this is of course just a lie. If someone is promoted, it must mean that his ranking among his disciples has fallen back again. Xiao Yi refused to accept it, so he challenged his cousin to a fight in private. As a result, that person had no sword will and sword realm, and he was quickly defeated. Xiao Yi's men, but after his defeat, the man was still dissatisfied and threatened to report to the elders of the family what he would do to Xiao Yi. Faced with that man's arrogance, Xiao Yi couldn't hold back and started killing. From then on, he could only He fled and became a casual practitioner.
Because of this, he had a paranoid hostility towards the Sword Intent Sword Realm. However, the little sword cultivator in front of him actually realized the Sword Intent Sword Realm during the fight with him. You can imagine the jealousy in Xiao Yi's heart. And know. Therefore, Li Jian's words "Do you understand?" were full of sarcasm and contempt in Xiao Yi's ears. It was like a needle pricking his heart, making him regard Li Jian as a murderous person. He found the culprit who caused him to run away from home, stared at Li Jian with purple eyes, raised his spiritual sword in his hand, and stabbed straight away with a shadow behind him!
Even though the sword realm is high-level, it is not a special means to restrain the possessed. This is what Xiao Yi thought when he stabbed him with his sword.
When Li Jian saw the opponent's sword, his figure first turned to the side. In Xiao Yi's eyes, the figure of the little sword cultivator was immediately obscured by a piece of bamboo branches and leaves, and could only be seen through the gaps in the green bamboo. The green robe of the little swordsman swayed.
The lavender long sword passed through the gaps between the layers of green bamboo, and pointed directly at the green robe amid the gentle swaying of the bamboo leaves... So what if there is a sword realm?
I'll kill you anyway!
