Following Dugu Qiubai, Lu Yi soon arrived in front of a cave. This cave is the tomb that Lonely Qiufei prepared for himself. When he entered the cave, he saw three lines of writing on the stone wall of the cave. The writing was very thin, but it was very deep into the stone. It was obvious that it was carved with an extremely sharp weapon. Look at those three lines:
"For more than thirty years, I have been in the rivers and lakes, killing all the enemies and defeating all the heroes. I have no resistance in the world. I have no choice but to live in seclusion in the deep valley, with the eagle as my friend. Wow, I have been looking for an enemy in my life and I can't get it. I am so lonely and embarrassed."
The following inscription is: "The sword demon Dugu seeks defeat."
This passage has already made clear Dugu Qiubei's identity. At this time, Lu Yi no longer had any worries. He bowed to Dugu Qiubei and said: "It turns out that senior is the invincible senior Dugu Qiubei in the world. I am very lucky to be able to be like my senior." The peerless masters meet here."
"The past has gone with the wind, so what if I am invincible in the world? In the end, it is not a pile of loess? After I die, you bury me in this cave and then seal the cave. You and I are destined to meet each other. I will entrust you with the afterlife, so naturally I will not take advantage of you. I will teach you a few tricks tomorrow, which can be regarded as the end of this cause and effect!"
"Thank you, senior, for your cultivation!" Lu Yi looked a little excited. Who is this person in front of him? The man in front of him is an invincible and lonely man seeking defeat in the world, an invincible strong man who has reached the pinnacle of this world. Even Wang Chongyang, in terms of martial arts realm, is far from the level of Dugu Qiu. Lu Yi was not a hypocritical person. Faced with such an opportunity, how could he give up so easily?
There was no talking all night, and early the next morning, Lu Yi was already sitting cross-legged in the valley, adjusting his breath. The innate sword energy in his body had been transformed by Dugu Qiubai, but the damage to his own meridians required Lu Yi to slowly nurse himself back to health. The big eagle was sleeping not far from Lu Yi. Not only could the glazed fruit bring flesh and white bones to life, but it was also a great opportunity for an animal like the big eagle. When the glazed fruit was fully digested by the glazed fruit, it would surely There will be a leap in your own strength.
At some point, Dugu Qiubai came to Lu Yi and said to Lu Yi: "I think you will enter the innate realm soon. Everyone has their own way of cultivation, and my way may not be suitable." You, so I have nothing to teach you in terms of internal strength. Why don't you practice your best martial arts and let me see what level you have reached!"
Lu Yi stood up and said respectfully to Dugu Qiubai: "Please give me some advice, senior!" Then, Lu Yi took a deep breath and prepared to practice Tai Chi. Naturally, Lu Yi would not have any hesitation. Even if Tai Chi is extremely sophisticated, in the eyes of a master like Dugu Qiubei, no matter how exquisite the moves are, they are useless. People have already reached the stage where they can win without any moves.
Doing nothing without doing anything. Lu Yi had already understood the true meaning of Tai Chi when he fought with Xie Tianyu. At this time, between exhalations and inhalations, the true meaning of Tai Chi slowly unfolded, and Lu Yi was once again immersed in a state of no desire, no thought, no self and no invincibility. The fists in his hands became slower and slower, but the shadow of the Tai Chi diagram became clearer and clearer. Gradually, Lu Yi's aura became looming, and his whole person turned into the mountain, the water, the wind, and became a part of nature.
Gradually, Lu Yi's punches stopped. Lu Yi stood there for a long time, motionless. It was not until Lu Yi came back to his senses that Dugu Qiubai said slowly: "Your martial arts skills are far higher than I imagined. , this boxing technique is unpredictable, and you have now truly started to get started. Although there are still many imperfections in this boxing technique, as long as you go all the way, you will be able to reach the pinnacle of martial arts. The next generation will be feared, and the next generation will be feared! It's a pity that you were born late. Thirty years!”
Tai Chi is a boxing technique that is the culmination of Taoism. Although Lu Yi's Tai Chi has not yet been perfected, the clues can already be seen. Dugu Qiubei felt regretful. If Lu Yi had been born thirty years earlier, with Tai Chi, he might not have been able to have a happy fight with Dugu Qiubei. Opponents have been hard to find over the years. I finally found a good opponent, but my end is approaching. It’s sad! What a shame!
Lu Yi was silent. Dugu Qiubai was destined to be lonely. This was determined by the upper limit of the world. An invincible creature like Dugu Qiubai would only appear in this world in hundreds of years. Lu Yi is undoubtedly lucky, because Lu Yi has the Tower of Creation of the Heavens, and has enough opportunities to climb one peak after another, and to meet one after another invincible and peerless strong men.
Sad remembrance has never been Dugu Qiubai's style. Soon Dugu Qiubei came to his senses, looked at Lu Yi and said: "I have practiced swords all my life. At the beginning, I defeated all the heroes in Hebei with the power of the long sword. Later, I wielded the heavy sword without a trace. The sharp edge is a skillful but unworkable weapon. Before the age of forty, he relied on it to dominate the world. After the age of forty, any object can be used as a sword: grass, wood, bamboo, and stone. From then on, he practiced intensively and gradually reached a state where no sword is better than a sword. Now it is now , I no longer have a sword, do you know why?"
Lu Yi thought for a moment and said: "Senior has reached the state of no self without sword, just like my boxing technique, doing nothing but doing everything, and being invincible without self!" Under Wang Chongyang's guidance, Lu Yi integrated Taoist classics to create Gradually understand this truth. Dugu Qiubai has obviously reached a state where he has no sword and no self. Since I am the sword, the sword is me. This is the highest level of swordsmanship. Only in this state can one be called a sword god.
"Hahaha! So, if you had been born thirty years earlier, we would have been able to fight happily. Although your cultivation level is still shallow, your martial arts level has reached an incredible level. Originally, I didn't want to teach you swordsmanship, but You are destined to enter the highest realm of martial arts, so it’s okay for you to pass on my swordsmanship to you. I hope you can find a successor for this swordsmanship, so that my swordsmanship will not be lost!”
Lu Yi's own martial arts cultivation and realm were actually not very high at this time, but Lu Yi understood what the ultimate realm of martial arts was and found a way forward. As long as Lu Yi can keep moving forward along this path, he will eventually reach the highest level of martial arts. This was an innate difference in vision, and it was the supreme opportunity given to Lu Yi by the Tower of Creation.
"Look, I will summarize the swordsmanship and divide it into nine styles, namely the final style, the sword-breaking style, the knife-breaking style, the spear-breaking style, the whip-breaking style, the rope-breaking style, the palm-breaking style, and the arrow-breaking style. Style, Qi-breaking style. You have to watch carefully, I will explain these moves to you in detail later!"
After saying that, Dugu Qiubai began to gradually practice his sword skills in front of Lu Yi. There are many sword moves in Dugu Nine Swords, and there are extreme changes in sword techniques. Dugu Qiubei used every sword move of the Lonely Nine Swords one by one in front of Lu Yi, and then told Lu Yi one by one the various mysteries of Dugu Nine Swords cultivation.
After Lu Yi listened and fell into deep thought, Dugu Qiubai smiled and said, "You have memorized all the sword moves, and I have told you all the mysteries in them. How do you feel now?"
Lu Yi pondered for a moment, hesitated for a moment and said: "The Dugu Nine Swords have so many changes in sword techniques. I feel like I really want to learn countless changes in sword techniques, but when I think about it carefully, I can't remember these changes clearly. !”
Dugu Qiubei said with satisfaction: "The key to the swordsmanship of Dugu's Nine Swords is "enlightenment", not rote memorization. Once you understand the sword intention of these nine swords, you can do anything and everything. Going out and entering everything means forgetting all the changes, which is irrelevant. When facing the enemy, you forget more completely and completely, and the less you are bound by the original sword technique. The more you forget now, it means The more you learn.”
Lu Yi lowered his head and pondered, and gradually understood the reason. This Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes on predicting the enemy's opportunity, and is the ultimate in changing moves. In terms of realm, it is not as good as the heavy sword without edge, which is ingenious and unworkable, and it cannot reach the realm where any grass or tree can be used as a sword. However, Dugu Nine Swords is the essence of what Dugu Qiujian has learned throughout his life. The changes in the sword moves are not important at all. What is important is the sword intention of Dugu Nine Swords, the essence of swordsmanship that can win without any move.
Two days later, under the guidance of Dugu Qiubai, Lu Yi had roughly mastered the Dugu Nine Swordsmanship. However, to fully master these sword techniques, Lu Yi still needed to spend time and study them slowly. Even so, Dugu Qiubei became more and more satisfied with Lu Yi. When the deadline was approaching, meeting such a talented person was also a great blessing in life.
"I've taught you what I can teach you. The cause and effect between us is over. Now we might as well have a good fight, so that I won't waste my life!"
"Senior!" Lu Yi stood up sadly, his face full of sadness. Dugu Qiubai's end is approaching. If he takes action now, he may not survive today.
Dugu Qiubai waved his hand and said calmly: "Martial artists of our generation should not act like a little daughter. Although your cultivation is still shallow, your boxing skills are exquisite. It is better to be able to verify martial arts with you before death than to die in loneliness. !”
Lu Yi naturally knew that Dugu Qiufei was right. Even if he didn't take action, Dugu Qiufei would not be able to survive for more than three days. Warriors always die standing up, and it is the greatest blessing for a warrior to be able to verify what he has learned when he dies and to see the highest level of martial arts. For Lu Yi at this moment, letting go and fighting Dugu Qiufei might be the better thing to do.
At this moment, facing the old man in front of him, Lu Yi felt a lot of unwillingness in his heart. Just because the world is limited, the old man in front of him is about to run out of life. Even if Lu Yi was extremely capable and could tell Dugu Qiubei where to go, Dugu Qiubei would still have no time.
"Take action!" Dugu Qiubei put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance with his eyes, not knowing where he was looking. Endless sword intent rose from Dugu Qiubei's body to the sky. At this moment, this invincible and peerless strongman no longer had to suppress himself and fully displayed his aura in front of Lu Yi.
Lu Yi knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Dugu Qiubei. Afterwards, Lu Yi let go of his mind and had no thoughts. At this time, the only way to show his greatest respect to Dugu Qiubei was to fight with all his strength and have a happy battle with Dugu Qiubei.
