What do you think of Kendo? Zhao Qing was slightly startled, as countless past memories and experiences came to his mind:
The merciless swordsmanship, the sentimental swordsmanship; the realm of no moves, the union of human moves, the realm of separation and union; the art of flying swords, refining energy into weapons, and the formation of heavenly weapons; the sword of the emperor, the sword of the princes, the sword of the common people mentioned in "Zhuangzi" The sword of man...
This question goes straight to her heart and is the most critical step that cannot be avoided in her spiritual practice.
After going through all kinds of experiences and witnessing the relationship between "Tao" and "Virtue" in the Eternal Spring Valley, Zhao Qing seems to have found the answer in her mind:
"In my vision for the future direction of kendo, the sword will be the virtue that carries one's way, and it will also be a dividing string that contains the charm of the way: the one that separates the yin and yang of heaven and earth is the string of Tai Chi; it separates the virtual and the real, and the non-existent. It is the infinite string."
"The strings of Taiji and the strings of Wuji penetrate the gate of Xuan Ni, and evolve thousands of ways. They are endless, and the ways have no end..."
Hearing Zhao Qing's description of the perfection of swordsmanship in her heart, Dugu Qiubei's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and an imperceptible mental fluctuation emitted from his body. Then he smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"In the past, I regarded the way of swordsmanship as moves and qi; now, my way of swordsmanship is the meaning of sword intention, which is also the Yi of the "Book of Changes". Using 'Yi' to describe the meaning, all things in the world and the wonders of creation are all It’s also in my sword intention!”
Zhao Qing's heart was suddenly shocked, and he felt that the other party's knowledge of swordsmanship was not inferior to his own, and he had many insights. He knew that Dugu Qiubei's current state was already much better than the "Dugu Nine Swords" he left behind back then, and he found it A further step in the way of swordsmanship.
Dividing realms based on sharp swords, soft swords, heavy swords, wooden swords, and swordless swords in the Sword Tomb may be a misunderstanding of Dugu Qiubai.
Judging from the opponent's character of "seeking a defeat but not getting it", he is pursuing the pure power of swordsmanship. Every time he changes weapons, he will be stronger than the previous one:
The original green light sword was not as powerful as the crape myrtle soft sword; after the soft sword accidentally injured a righteous man and was abandoned, he found the dark iron heavy sword; later, the wooden sword was light and could change faster than the heavy sword; finally, It is the realm of controlling the power of heaven and earth, where no sword is better than having a sword.
She pondered for a moment, then opened her mouth to invite a fight: "Simple words are not enough to describe the breadth and depth of the Tao. The only way to show your true swordsmanship is to master the sword with a sword."
"Yes, we should let the sword speak." Dugu Qiubai suddenly took two steps and came to the outside of the cave. He patted the divine eagle that was eavesdropping at the entrance of the cave. Then his body shape changed, and in an instant he stepped on the mountain stone. Several times, he jumped to the top of a peak of more than 100 feet.
When he arrived at the top of the peak, Zhao Qing also floated over and landed lightly twenty feet away from Dugu Qiubai. He casually threw the crape myrtle soft sword and inserted it into a rock in the distance, holding a colorful lightsaber. , looking at the opponent in a state of activated skill from a distance.
It would not be morally justified to use Dugu Qiubai's abandoned weapon against him; and using the external force of the sword's energy would be considered an unfair fight.
…
Although he is nearly a hundred years old, Dugu Qiubai does not show signs of declining energy and blood at all, because at his current state, there will be no decline in combat power until his death. He can always improve to his own level. peak level. ….
"My sword specializes in weak spots and is difficult to hold on to. You have to be careful."
Dugu Qiubei spoke lightly, clasped his hands together, and then separated them to both sides at a constant speed. His long gray-black hair was flying, and his dark black robe was windless. His whole body slowly rose from the ground. It seems to go against the common sense of the world.
And in Zhao Qing's meticulous induction, the other party became one with the heaven and earth in an instant, embedded in the depths of the void of heaven and earth with something similar to the soul, from which the most yang and strong Gang Qi was extracted, and in his hands An invisible air weapon with unimaginable power was created.
This kind of Qi weapon created with the Yang Zhigang Qi is harder than black iron and lighter than a wooden sword. It has the best of both worlds and can continuously change its shape. When it is partially shattered, The instant reshaping and recovery has surpassed all ordinary soldiers in the world.
At the same time, the remaining vitality of heaven and earth he mobilized naturally spurted out in all directions, and part of it fell to the ground.
, resulting in a situation that is almost suspended in the air.
There are some differences from the normal soul. Could it be that it has some special function? In addition, if you use "Zhiyang Wuji" to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth to continuously push outward and empty the air in a certain space, can you use the buoyancy of the air to truly fly to extremely high altitudes?
Before he had time to think about it, Zhao Qing simultaneously cast "Ultimate Yin Wuji", and an all-devouring ruins hole seemed to appear in the depths of the soul, attracting the vitality of heaven and earth with a radius of hundreds of feet towards the center, and the scope of influence became larger and larger, forming a A huge spiritual vortex.
The colorful lightsaber suddenly unsheathed, emitting a rainbow-like halo under the moonlight, flickering, flowing, and wandering erratically, covering up the rapid flow of Taiyin True Water in the sword body and the faint white light escaping from the power of Zhiyin Zhihan. , integrated with the unfolding Mingyu aura.
The moment the invisible Qi weapon was completed, Dugu Qiubai immediately took action. The sharp Qi that seemed to be able to cut through everything in the world was condensed on the tip of the sword, and it stabbed towards Zhao Qing from a distance.
It was as if the sword extended for more than ten feet at this moment, turning into a huge sword that filled the sky and the earth. In a strange way that no one had ever thought of, it ignored the barriers of space and showed a complex appearance. Extremely, yet consistent with the mysterious trajectory of the yin and yang of heaven and earth.
In the short period of time when the Zhiyang sword was extended, thousands of different changes took place:
Suddenly it is as heavy as a huge iron weighing ten thousand kilograms, and suddenly it is as light as a feather blowing in the wind; Elusive.
With one sword, it seemed to contain all the changes in the world's moves, stabbing out the colors of the entire world, eclipsing the stars and moon in the sky.
Facing this sword that had reached its ultimate transformation and seemed to be unstoppable, Zhao Qing's expression remained unchanged, and the colorful lightsaber in his hand pierced out spontaneously as if it had come alive, with a kind of agility that is difficult to describe in words. , drawing a dense network of sword lights and swords in the void.
Once the sword net was formed, as it circulated, it seemed to be affected by the majestic suction force at the center of the net, and it collapsed towards the force. It transformed from a giant net covering a ten-foot radius into a sword energy the size of a grain of rice. Pearl, and along with it, absorbed the surrounding aura. ….
As the sword tip trembled slightly, the bright jade-white sword beads shot out, creating an unimaginable pulling force along the way. No matter how the Zhiyang Sword Gang changed endlessly, it seemed to be able to smooth out all the fluctuations around it. Under the force, it disappears into the invisible.
"Boom!" The Zhiyang Sword Gang and the Zhiyin Sword Pearl finally collided together, stimulating a dazzling ray of light and lightning that scattered like a spider web.
The unimaginably huge explosion turned the vegetation with a radius of more than ten feet into powder, and the gravel splashed outward. Although it occurred six or seven feet above the ground, it still left a hole with a diameter of seven to eight feet on the top of the peak. Big hole.
The huge thunder-like explosion echoed endlessly among the mountains, causing the Bodhisattva Snake that had been lying on the ground in the valley to tremble.
The waves of scattered energy came within five feet of Zhao Qing and Dugu Qiubai, and were quickly blocked by the dissipation of their auras. This is because they have integrated the true water of taiyin and the true fire of the sun into their aura, and have special resistance to this sudden change of yin and yang.
"The collision of Yang and Yin is indeed the right way to break the void!"
Looking at this unprecedented scene, Dugu Qiubai was shocked in his heart. He did not continue to draw his sword immediately, but his eyes emitted a frightening light, and he couldn't help but sigh.
The Zhiyang Sword Gang he used just now only carries a small amount of the true fire of the sun, and is mainly composed of the Zhiyang Zhigang Qi between heaven and earth. Even so, under the sudden change of yin and yang, it still has huge power, giving birth to A vision of blazing lightning.
Although he yearns for the realm of Shattered Void, Dugu Qiubai clearly understands that the purpose of this battle is mainly to explain the swordsmanship of both sides and compete in swordsmanship and martial arts.
Therefore, after he paused for a moment, he took action again, instantly focusing on Yang Jian Gang, slashing out a clear sword light that rippled like water waves, and even expressed it softly, perfectly showing the artistic conception of water droplets penetrating stone and melting through all things.
Seeing the opponent draw his sword again from a distance, he waited for Dugu Qiubai to finish speaking.
After saying this, Zhao Qing's eyes lit up, and he also swung his sword from a distance, but the sword speed was faster, and in an instant he struck out two completely opposite sword lights.
The first sword light is the purest sword of Yin and Cold. It carries a terrifying cold power that seems to be able to freeze everything. No matter how hard and soft your sword light is like water, it will condense into ice and stop everything. Variety.
The second sword light, integrated with the "Fire, Snow, Ice and Flame" technique, ignited all the surrounding vegetation residue that had just been shaken into powder, turning it into a raging fire, following closely behind the former.
At the moment when the surface of the flowing water is condensed into ice, it must be allowed to change from cold to hot, explode into pieces and dissipate completely under the rapid change.
In the blink of an eye, the three swords intersected, arousing a fireball in mid-air that quickly flew towards Dugu Qiubai and continued to expand outwards, burning all the tens of feet along the way to scorched earth.
Of course, although this kind of fire is fierce, it does not pose the slightest threat to Dugu Qiubei, who has mastered "Zhiyang Wuji".
I saw the invisible Qi sword in his hand spinning very fast, laying a hemispherical Qi barrier in front of him, easily blocking the fireball. Then with a flash of sword light, he was about to split the fading fireball into two. piece.
But having gained such a moment of advantage, Zhao Qing's offensive exploded. In an instant, he jumped up and swayed out pieces of cold sword light. Taking advantage of Dugu Qiubai to chop down the fireball, he covered his head like a heavy rain. Sprinkle down. ….
The most powerful thing is not the sword energy that crisscrosses and echoes each other, but the sword energy that collides with each other deliberately, forming highly lethal cyclones that cannot be resolved and can only be blocked and hit hard.
But Dugu Qiubai was worthy of being Dugu Qiubai. The sword that he was slashing towards the fireball and seemed to have tried his best suddenly suddenly changed again and formed tiny sword circles, which were lightly attached to the fireball. The surface of the fireball.
Thus, he invisibly interfered with the trajectory of the fireball, causing it to cleverly bypass his side and head towards the vortex of sword energy splashing down in the air.
When the fireball and the cyclone collided and splashed out brilliant sparks, the small sword rings at the bottom of the fireball suddenly collapsed at the same time, as if they were attracted by attraction, and naturally fell back to the Zhiyang Sword Gang. s surface.
As it fell together, it exploded with unprecedented astonishing heat, blending into the fierce and unparalleled astonishing sword intent, condensing a crimson sword that expanded rapidly outward in the human senses, heading in the direction of Zhao Qing Cut straight out.
The blazing light illuminates a hundred feet in radius, activating the majestic Yang Qi of heaven and earth, as if controlling the punishment between heaven and earth, running the blade of heaven and earth, just wanting to kill and destroy everything in front of him.
"Good swordsmanship!" Before a soft shout could be heard, Zhao Qing's figure that was originally in mid-air suddenly turned into a series of afterimages, leaving behind a series of dreamy sword light bubbles on the spot, and he incredibly avoided this. An earth-shattering slash.
"Zhiyin Wuji" and "Taiyin True Water" can be said to be equivalent at a certain level, but the former is mainly a state of mind and changes in movement, while the latter is a real type of true energy with special characteristics. properties.
Under the stimulation of "Taiyin True Water", the speed of Zhao Qing's Qinggong movement has greatly surpassed the peak before the breakthrough. In an instant, Dugu Qiubai's eyes disappeared between heaven and earth, and in " When the "Sword Intent Soul Lock" fails, it may even be completely undetectable.
People are like this, let alone the light sword body?
The Rainbow Light Sword disappeared without a trace in the air, turning into a bright sword light that spread dozens of feet in a radius, gathering or dispersing, rising and falling like the tide, and everywhere like mist, which is unimaginable.
Dugu Qiubai, who rarely defended himself with his sword in his life and pursued a fierce and fierce offensive, had to change his past strategy due to the overall disadvantage of his body skills and sword speed.
Accompanied by the roar of the huge sword wind, he could see that the Zhiyang Sword Gang he displayed was without pause, forming red circles one after another, layer upon layer, filling every inch of the void around him.
It was like forming a mirror, reflecting the tens of thousands of light and shadow lines cut by Zhao Qing, blocking them from the outside.
The profound and mysterious truths between heaven and earth seem to be all there
reflected in these circles.
In the process of the sword light mirror being continuously generated, his extremely fierce sword intention was integrated into the whistling sound of the sword, into the collision sound when the sword blades clashed, and into every piece of gravel and debris stirred up in the aftermath of the battle. in every speck of dust;
Thereby transforming it into a realm of sword energy shrouded in sword intent, trying to occupy the absolute home field advantage and gradually push back the wave of sword energy that is constantly washing away from the outside world. ….
This exquisite use of sword intention has reached an unimaginable level, which can be said to be a great achievement in swordsmanship.
The yin and cold sword light collided with the yang and strong mirror continuously, lasing outward and emitting countless fine electric lights, extending into the depths of the void, as if the space could not withstand the power of the two sides' confrontation. Every inch is broken.
However, with each move of both sides only activating a small amount of Taiyin True Water and Sun True Fire, the space here is still a long way from being shattered by Yin and Yang Wuji.
Under the pull of Qi, Zhao Qing sensed the phenomenon of radical changes in yin and yang again and again, and gradually pushed his own skills to unprecedented extremes. His soul was crystal clear, reflecting every subtle change during the battle.
Suddenly, she realized that under the full exertion of her "Ultimate Yin Wuji", the "Xu Cave" in the Yuan Shen that attracted and accommodated countless spiritual energy from heaven and earth was formed by the Yin in Yin and the Yang in Yin. composed together.
The former is located in the soul, and the latter is connected to the boundless void, forming an extremely strange energy channel.
The so-called yang in yin is essentially different from the general level of yin and yang qi. Some of them are equivalent to half of the "perfect yang" outside the body.
This is because when the soul in the body performs "Zhiyin Wuji", it will be like "creating something out of nothing", relying on the energy channel connection between the two to continuously transmit energy.
In easier-to-understand terms, "The Ultimate Yin" is a black hole, and the "Yang in Yin" is the so-called white hole. There is a passage connecting the two.
The reason why it is just "yang within yin" rather than "the ultimate yang" is because the two perspectives are different: from the perspective of a black hole, a white hole is completely a thing that steals its own energy.
Only by allowing the energy of the black hole and the white hole to circulate with each other, and no longer be a one-way arrow, can we simultaneously cultivate the "Ultimate Yin" and "Ultimate Yang". The extreme of yin embraces the perfect state of yang.
Although energy circulates continuously and seems to no longer affect the outside world, black holes and white holes still have huge gravitational pull, which can continue to attract the energy of the outside world for their own use, growing and growing in cycles again and again.
However, Zhao Qing still has no clue how to cultivate this strange energy circulation state. He only grasps the essence of "Wuji" and "Tai Chi".
At the same time, he also understood that the true peak of Yin and Yang's duality is by no means simply accommodating the true fire of the sun and the true water of the lunar moon in the body, thereby opening the "immortal gate" of the broken void, but a more mysterious situation.

Stargazing is like a dusty dream
