"Young hero Yifan was so young, and with only the upper-level cultivation of the early stage and late stage, he not only cultivated the sword light of 'Gathering Qi and Transforming Gang', but also achieved such an unpredictable 'human-sword combination' The realm of one is really not simple!"
While stroking his beard, Luo Zhen said with emotion, "I think back then, the founder of our Peace Escort Agency, my grandfather, who was known as 'One Sword to Make Peace', was also nearly a hundred years old. , has just gradually reached the realm of 'human and sword unity', and then with the help of this profound and profound realm, he has just combined the thirty-six styles of 'Chonghe Sword Technique', and finally created the concept of 'White Rainbow Passing through the Sun' A top-level swordsmanship and martial arts technique!"
"Martial arts practice, carrying forward the past and opening up the future, integrating it, is indeed not easy!"
Yun Yiyang seemed to be inspired by this and nodded repeatedly!
Seeing this situation, Yun Yitian couldn't help but glance at Yun Yifan briefly, and then nodded and said: "It is indeed not easy for man and sword to become one!
After a brief pause, he continued, "However, do you know that this 'human and sword unity' actually has different realms?"
"Different realms?" Yun Yifan couldn't help but become curious and looked at Yun Yitian carefully.
The others also looked at Yun Tiantian expectantly.
"Exactly." Yun Tiantian smiled faintly and said, "The combination of human and sword can be divided into three major realms, namely the sword-fighting realm, the sword-controlling realm and the sword-controlling realm."
"Two sword control realms?" Yun Yifan asked with some confusion.
The other people's expressions were also slightly puzzled.
"No." Yun Tiantian smiled lightly and explained, "This 'control' is not that 'control'——
"The so-called 'controller' in the second level of sword control realm refers to control, and the person who wants to get to the top spends their energy.
"The so-called 'controlling' in the third level of sword control is an envoy. For example, using one's arms and fingers obviously does not consume as much mental energy as the previous 'controlling'."
Yun Yifan nodded slightly, and said with some vague understanding: "In other words, the 'Man-Sword Unity' is divided into three levels. The first level is called the 'Sword Refuting Realm', and the second level is called 'Sword Controlling'." Realm', the third level is called the 'Sword Control Realm'?"
The rest of the people also had similar expressions.
Seeing this, Yun Tiantian smiled slightly and continued to explain: "That's exactly it.
"In detail--
"The first level of the sword-fighting realm of 'the unity of man and sword' can also be called the 'union of swords and swords'.
“Those who refute the sword use strength to refute the sword, but the sword will not move in any direction.
"This power is called internal power in martial arts and spiritual power in spiritual practice. They can both be called the power of true energy.
"The art of refuting swords is the art of controlling swords with the power of true energy. In martial arts, it is generally called 'capturing dragons and controlling cranes', while in spiritual practice, it is generally called 'the art of attracting objects'.
"In martial arts, 'Capturing Dragons and Controlling Cranes' is actually an acquired top-level martial arts technique; but in monasticism, 'Learning Technique' is just an acquired mid-level spell.
"As we all know, when the martial arts reaches the first stage of acquired perfection, the internal skills have already achieved the 'spiritual and spiritual integration' and then 'reflected the emptiness'. Before that, one must first understand and achieve the 'inner skills artistic conception', but if you want to practice 'Capturing the Dragon' Martial arts such as "Crane" must be based on the internal skills of "the spirit and energy complement each other" and then "reflecting the emptiness".
"It is said that the most amazing and talented people in the martial arts journey can achieve the inner strength of 'artistic conception' when they first reach the upper level of the first realm, and they can even further achieve the 'symbiosis of spirit and energy'!"
"However, if you want to further 'reflect the emptiness', you need to at least reach the first stage of the later stage of the first stage, so that it is possible.
"And if you want to practice 'Capturing the Dragon and Controlling the Crane', you must achieve the internal skill of 'Shen Qi complements each other' and then 'Returning the Empty Light'. That is, you can practice it with the first level of the first stage and later stage at the earliest."
Having said this, Yun Yitian couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan. After a brief pause, he continued to smile calmly and said, "For example, Junior Brother Yifan, you just arrived at the first level of the late stage of the first stage. You have already achieved the internal skill of 'spirit and energy complement each other' and then 'reflecting the emptiness' - presumably by that time, you have already practiced the "Yun Fu Technique" attached to the "Yunxiao Heart Technique", which is the "Capturing the Dragon" Is this the top-level martial arts of "Controlling Crane"?"
"Exactly." Yun Yifan smiled slightly and nodded.
After hearing this, Long Xiuyuan and Yun Yiyang didn't have any obvious reaction because they already knew it.
However, Luo Zhen, Luo Bo and Luo Xiang were all shocked and couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan. Their hearts were filled with "ups and downs...
Yun Yitian didn't pay much attention to it, and just continued to speak calmly: "But it is said that during the journey of cultivating Taoism, usually when you first reach the early stage of the acquired Qi refining stage, you will already have the artistic conception of internal strength.
"Of course, the artistic conception of internal strength is also the prerequisite for cultivating the Tao and reaching the early stage of the acquired Qi refining stage.
"With this level of cultivation, you can begin to master the 'Introduction Technique'.
"The path of cultivating the Tao, cultivating the truth and refining the Dao, seizing the essence of heaven and earth into one body, and using the energy of heaven and earth for one's own use. It is indeed strange and mysterious, and it is not the same as the path of martial arts!
"However, whether it is martial arts or spiritual practice, if you want to reach the first level of the sword-fighting realm of 'the unity of human and sword', that is, to achieve the 'union of swords and swords', you must first possess the internal skill of 'the union of spirit and energy'.
"At the same time, you have to practice the 'Capturing the Dragon and Controlling the Crane' or the 'Lying Technique' to a level above the artistic conception, and then reach a certain level through the understanding of the way of the sword. Only then can you finally achieve the most basic first-level 'Human Sword'" "Unity's Sword Realm."
"So that's it." When Luo Zhen heard this, he suddenly realized, "The ancestor of our family had already reached the peak of the first state of perfection twenty-one years ago, and his internal strength had already reached the level of 'Shen Ning Qi Solidification' Furthermore, the 'Return to Basics' and the Thirty-Six Forms of 'Chonghe Sword Technique' have been perfected for a long time. However, the 'Crane Control Technique' learned at that time was only able to reach the artistic conception, and only then gradually reached the 'Human Sword Combination'. The realm of one' is probably due to this reason."
"That's the case." Yun Tiantian nodded, and continued to speak with a smile: "The second level of sword control realm of 'human and sword unity' can also be called 'sword control as one'.
“Those who control the sword control the sword with Qi, and the sword moves with Qi.
"This kind of Qi is not only the pure power of Qi, but also requires the infusion and fusion of the mind and thoughts, so that the Qi machine can be used to pull and control the sword.
"The art of controlling a sword is also commonly known as the 'Art of Controlling a Weapon' in martial arts, while in spiritual practice it is generally called the 'Art of Expelling Objects'.
"In martial arts, the 'Art of Controlling Weapons' is actually an innate first-grade martial arts technique; but in the practice of Buddhism, 'The Art of Expelling Objects' is just an acquired high-level spell.
"Everyone should know that when the martial arts reaches the middle level of the first stage of acquired heaven, the internal skills have reached the 'integration of spirit and energy' and then the 'reflection of the sky and the great success'. If you want to practice the 'art of controlling weapons', you must use ' This can only be achieved if the internal skills of "the combination of Shen and Qi" are the foundation.
"Although it is said that the most amazing and talented people in the martial arts can achieve the inner strength of 'the combination of spirit and energy' at the middle level of the first stage, but if you want to practice the 'art of controlling weapons', it is At least it requires the skills of the upper level in the late stage of the initial stage to do it!"
Speaking of this, Yun Yifan couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan again, smiled faintly and asked, "Yesterday, I watched Junior Brother Yifan use the power of 'strike the void and grab the void' to suddenly hold the sword three feet in the air. , it is the use of the "Yun Fu Gong" that has been perfected. I can vaguely feel that your internal skills seem to have reached the realm of "Shen and Qi". Presumably, my junior brother has also begun to practice "Yunxiao Dual Skills". It contains the 'technique of controlling a weapon'."
"Exactly." Yun Yifan smiled slightly and replied calmly, "When the "Yunxiao Sword Technique" and "Yunxiao Spear Technique" were taught in advance, Master Mei Hanying warned me in advance that in addition to To achieve the "Combined Spirit and Qi" in internal skills, one must have at least the upper-level cultivation of the early stage and later stage before one can practice the "Art of Controlling Weapons".
"Originally, I thought that it would take a long time before I would have the opportunity to practice the 'Art of Controlling the Weapon'.
"Unexpectedly, later on, I unexpectedly won the top four in the competition, and at the awards ceremony on March 9th, I was awarded the 150-year-old snow ginseng elixir.
"In the afternoon of that day, under the care of my father, I took the elixir snow ginseng and refined it. I was able to reach the upper level of the late stage of the first stage in one fell swoop.
"Furthermore, my inner strength attainments have not only been completely improved to the extreme level of 'reflecting the emptiness and the dawn of light', but have also reached the realm of 'the union of spirit and energy'.
"So, in the past few days since then, while consolidating and improving my cultivation, I have also practiced the 'Art of Controlling the Weapon'."
After hearing this, Long Xiuyuan and Yun Yiyang looked at each other, smiled, and sighed in unison: "Awesome, awesome!"
The relationship between these two people and Yun Yifan is relatively close. They had roughly understood these situations before setting off. At that time, they couldn't help but sigh and praise. Such a reaction at this moment was nothing but It was just a slight reflection once again.
However, the turbulent hearts of Luo Zhen, Luo Bo and Luo Xiang who had not calmed down just now were involuntarily surging again...
Yun Tiantian smiled slightly, nodded slightly, and then continued: "It is said that during the journey of cultivating Taoism, usually when you first reach the early stage of the acquired Qi refining stage, the achievement of inner strength is the 'union of spirit and Qi'.
"Of course, the inner strength attainment of 'the combination of spirit and qi' is also the prerequisite for cultivating the Tao and reaching the early stage of acquired qi refining.
"With this kind of cultivation, you can start to master the 'Dispelling Object Technique'.
"Cultivation of truth and Taoism, directly channeling the power of heaven and earth for one's own use, is indeed extremely mysterious!
"However, regardless of martial arts or spiritual practice, if you want to reach the second level of sword control realm of 'unity of man and sword', that is, to achieve 'unity of sword control', you must first possess the internal skill of 'Three Symbols Return to Origin'.
"At the same time, one has to practice the 'Art of Controlling the Weapon' or the 'Art of Expelling Objects' to a level above the artistic conception, and then reach a higher level through the understanding of the way of the sword. Only then can one finally achieve the second level of 'Human Sword Combination'" One's Sword Control Realm.
"The third level of sword-controlling realm of 'man-sword-in-one' can also be called 'sword-controlling-in-one'.
“A sword wielder controls the sword with his heart, and the sword moves with his heart.
"This heart is the mind and thoughts.
"As the saying goes, 'Where the heart goes, the sword goes', that is the art of sword control.
"Unlike sword control, which uses one's own Qi to pull the sword, and one has to concentrate on pulling it, sword control does not require too much attention to control, nor does it need to consume too much Qi to support its operation."
Hearing this, Yun Yiyang suddenly thought and couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother Yitian, using the technique of 'controlling objects with Qi' to control a sword, is this the so-called 'sword control'?"
"This cannot be summed up in one word, let alone generalized." Yun Tiantian smiled slightly and said clearly, "The art of fighting swords is the foundation for practicing the art of controlling swords, and the art of controlling swords is the art of practicing sword control. foundation.
"The art of refuting the sword involves using Qi to refute the sword. The sword and Qi are combined and controlled by the heart. Combining them with Qi, the sword follows the heart.
"The art of controlling the sword is to use Qi to control the sword. The heart and Qi are combined. The Qi controls the movement. The sword combines it with the Qi. The sword follows the Qi.
“The art of sword control is to control the sword with the heart, the sword and the heart are in harmony, the heart and energy are unified, the heart is as strong as the sword, and the sword is as strong as the energy.
“The essence of the refute sword is that the mind is the master, the true energy is the supplement, the sword is the slave, the mind commands, the true energy transports the sword, and the sword moves.
“The essence of sword control lies in the combination of spirit and energy, not master and slave, spirit and energy are the main ones, and the sword is the supplementary one. The spirit moves the sword, and the energy moves the sword.
"The essence of sword control is that the spirit and energy are one, and the spirit and the sword are united, regardless of the master and the slave. Wherever the mind goes, the sword goes. The spirit and the sword follow each other.
"The sword uses one's own true energy to move the sword, just like 'capturing a dragon and controlling a crane'. It takes a lot of effort and consumes the most internal energy.
"To control the sword is to use one's own Qi to pull the sword, and the distraction is focused on pulling the sword. Although the mind has been harmonized with the true Qi, the consumption of internal energy has gradually decreased, but there is still a significant loss.
"The real sword control is where the mind goes and the sword goes. It doesn't require too much concentration to control, nor does it need to consume too much energy to support its operation.
“So, once you reach the realm of sword control, even if you don’t use Qi to control the sword, the sword will fly by your will.
"Furthermore, the mind and the true energy have become one, so when wielding the sword, the consumption of internal energy is very little."
Hearing this, Yun Yifan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yitian, does the so-called 'controlling objects with Qi' refer to the general power of 'controlling swords with heart' despite being in control?" , in fact, the sword is not controlled by the mind and spirit, but only by the Qi machine that combines the mind and the true energy to control the sword, so is it called 'controlling objects with Qi'?"
When Yun Tiantian heard this question, he couldn't help but look at Yun Yifan with admiration, then nodded and replied: "That's the general idea."
Yun Yifan asked again: "Therefore, using the technique of 'controlling objects with Qi' to control a sword, although it can be considered as touching the threshold of 'controlling a sword', it is still not considered to be a true state of 'controlling a sword'. Is that so?"
"You can say that." Yun Yitian nodded.
