In the past, every time I looked directly at the person in the painting, I had a feeling of needles on my back. But today, I discovered that the eyes of the person in the painting were much softer, and the monstrous sword intent contained in the sword was a little less sharp.
"Is it because of the Kenshin Pill I just took?"
"This effect is too powerful. Just taking one pill has such an effect. If it takes seven days, it will be even more incredible!"
Liangchen was guessing when suddenly his heart trembled, and he felt an indescribable emotion.
"how so!?"
After a few breaths, a feeling of loneliness and loneliness emerged spontaneously, and instantly filled the whole body.
This feeling was so clear and strong, as if it was the emotion rising in his heart, that he was at a loss for a moment.
Liangchen panicked and didn't dare to look at the painting anymore. He quickly moved his eyes away. Suddenly, his mind felt dizzy and the surroundings changed. He was already in a desolate place.
He raised his eyes and saw that there was no one around him. All he could see was reddish-brown cracked land. At the end of the earth, a solitary mountain shot straight into the sky, as if connecting heaven and earth.
And in this piece of heaven and earth, a floating white figure is hesitantly moving forward, like a ghost.
The vast land, the endless sky, the majestic mountains, and the single figure, everything is so desolate, and it makes that person even more lonely.
"Who is he? Where is he going?"
Liangchen guessed in his mind, and couldn't help but feel a little curious. He was about to catch up, but found that his body couldn't move at all, and suddenly his heart moved:
"Illusion?!"
At the same time, the Pearl of the Sea of Consciousness rotated rapidly, and the vision blurred for a while. The picture was torn into pieces in an instant, turning into soft sword intent and brushing across the body.
The mountains and the earth disappeared without a trace, and only the master's gentle eyes looked at him.
The painting is still the same painting, and the person is still in the attic.
"This! What is going on? Is it my imagination? Or..."
"Is it possible that this painting is also a space magic weapon?"
Liangchen was frightened by this strange encounter, but his guesses were completely clueless.
He walked forward carefully, and let out a trace of spiritual thought to brush over the ancient painting, but this time there was nothing strange about Gujing Wubo in the painting.
He thought for a while and tried to understand the meaning of the sword in the painting again. Except for a hint of loneliness, the empty and vast picture just now was no longer there.
After several attempts, I finally determined that there was no difference between the paintings, let alone a space magic weapon, so I had to give up.
"Is everything just an illusion?"
"I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll ask my senior brother in a few days."
Throwing away many thoughts, he happily concentrated on practicing.
With the help of Kenshinmaru, the oppressive feeling of the sword's intention disappeared a lot, which gave him more time to realize the sword's intention.
This stop lasted only half a day.
.
Time flies so fast, seven days go by in a blink of an eye.
In the past few days, apart from comprehending the meaning of the sword, Liangchen has been reading the books left in the study.
These books were all ordinary travel notes and some low-level swordsmanship. Although they had no cultivation significance, they finally gave him some understanding of the distribution and sphere of influence of some sects in Zhongzhou.
After he took the last Kenshin Pill, he activated the sword talisman to send a message to the Qianqiu Sect Master.
An hour later, Liannan Peak, Guangda Pavilion.
"Junior brother, are there any abnormalities after taking this Jianshin Pill?" Qianqiu Sect Master asked eagerly as soon as he saw the good time.
"Abnormal?"
"There's no difference in my body, it's just... something happened a few days ago. I wonder if it counts?" Liangchen thought for a moment and answered.
"Tell me and listen." Qianqiu Sect Master said.
"After you left seven days ago, I took the Kenshin Pill and practiced as usual, and I comprehended the map of the Sword Dividing Zhongzhou in this attic. Normally I only felt the sword's intent was so intense that my whole body felt chilly, but since taking the Kenshin Pill, I have actually had a chill. It's an illusion, as if I'm in another space... Please help me, senior brother, to clarify my doubts." Liangchen briefly explained the situation that day.
"Haha~ Congratulations, junior brother! Congratulations, junior brother!" Qianqiu Sect Master was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and handed over his hands.
"Senior brother, how do you say this?" Liangchen looked stunned, confused.
"Congratulations, junior brother, for now possessing the body of Sword Heart." Master Qianqiu said.
"Kenshin! What is this?" Liangchen became even more confused upon hearing this.
"Whenever you practice sword will, you must first have a sword heart, and this sword heart pill is to help you cultivate the sword heart as soon as possible."
"Once you have the sword heart, the sword intention you feel is no longer the superficial feeling, but the essence contained in the sword intention. These essences can allow you to condense your sword intention faster." Qianqiu Sect Master explained.
"The essence of sword intent?" Liangchen whispered in confusion.
Seeing his appearance, Qianqiu Sect Master shook his head helplessly and said with a smile:
"Uncle Master is too casual. It seems that apart from teaching you the skills, he didn't teach you anything else! Listen to me and tell you in detail..."
"You can't get what you asked for!" Liangchen listened attentively.
"Master once said that there are three realms of practicing swordsmanship."
"The first level is to see mountains as mountains."
"The second level is to see that the mountain is not a mountain."
"The third level is when you see a mountain, it's still a mountain."
When Liangchen heard the tongue twister, he suddenly became confused. Isn't practicing sword intention just about integrating essence, energy and spirit into one body? Why is it getting more and more complicated the more you talk about it?
"Senior brother, please clarify."
"When ordinary people first come to the world, they feel strange when they see all things. When people say mountains are mountains, they know mountains are mountains. When people say water is water, they know water is water. You can know all things through the six senses of touch, hearing, and seeing. This It is the first state of seeing the mountain as the mountain itself.”
"Then see all things, observe the human heart, and understand the way. When you look at all things again, you will know the height of the sky when you see mountains, the thickness of the earth when you see water, the years when you see flowers, and the reincarnation when you see fruits. At this time, you have entered the second state: the state of enlightenment. "
"After passing through the first two realms, what is a mountain and what is water have become blurry, like looking at flowers in the mist. At this time, if you go up to the next level, you will know that the mountain is still a mountain and the water is still water! This is the second level. The third realm: the realm of seeking truth.”
"For example, in this picture of Master's Sword Dividing Zhongzhou, you can feel the loneliness from the sword intention in the painting. It has crossed from the first realm to the second realm, so this is a manifestation of your having the sword heart. Once you have the sword heart, practice The sword intention is just around the corner!!"
"I also sensed this picture back then, but what I experienced was the strong confidence of sword-cutting mountains and rivers and moving forward indomitably. I wonder where does this sense of loneliness come from, junior brother?"
"This..." Liangchen didn't know how to answer.
"However, everyone's experience is different, and their own emotions will also bias their understanding of things. Naturally, their reactions to all things are also different. The saying that thousands of people watch autumn, there are different kinds of swings, is exactly what it means." Qianqiu Sect Master looked at it meaningfully Liangchen said.
"Thank you, senior brother, for your careful explanation. Junior brother's mind is much clearer!" Liangchen said sincerely with his hands in hand.
Although there were still many things to understand in detail, he already understood the general meaning of these words.
"Usually, if you want to condense the sword heart with this sword heart pill, it will take at least three or five pills, depending on your physical condition and state of mind. I didn't expect you to take the first one. You are worthy of being the successor chosen by my uncle!" Qianqiu Sect Master sighed.
"Since you have condensed your sword heart, as long as you pay attention when entering the sword cave, you should not be tortured too badly by the sword intention."
"Let's go!"
