Chapter 12 The Way of Life and Death

Tian Dao! It's easy to write, but there are countless bitternesses. Many heroes seek up and down in their lives, just to catch that line of opportunity. After all, they are unable to enter.

Chongguang sat solemnly in front of Xie Xiaofeng and listened to the peerless swordsman who was like a learned Confucian. Suddenly, a ridiculous feeling appeared in his heart. He was a monk, and the other side was a martial artist. The two people were not close to each other, but now they are sitting together and talking.

The two have never met in the past. Why did Xie Xiaofeng care so much about him when they met for the first time? Chongguang's doubts came to my mind, and the swordsman opposite gave the answer: "I had an agreement with Mr. Ou that 20 years later, he would come back to Shuzhong to try the way of heaven with me. If I can really find another way, he will tell me the truth of heaven and earth. Counting the days, it's only recently, so I've been waiting. I didn't expect that Mr. Ou refused to come and asked you to see me with his tokens. He is a master in the world. He won't be so petty and unwilling to gamble and give up.

Is the misunderstanding really a misunderstanding? Chongguang's doubts have not been relieved. All this seemed to be a coincidence, but he always felt that it seemed to be doomed. I seem to have forgotten some important clues, and an invisible hand is pushing all this to happen.

"Mr. Xie, you misunderstood. I'm not Mr. Ou's messenger." Facing Xie Xiaofeng's expectant eyes, Chongguang finally opened his mouth and explained his origin. His narrative is long and experienced, and many irrelevant details have been written. Even so, it has been told for a long time. He has a kind of unnecestic trust in this sword god from martial arts to Taoism. Maybe this is the legendary fate?

"Ha, ha, so that's it." After listening to Chongguang's story, Xie Xiaofeng did not look disappointed at all, but had a relief. Unexpectedly, Ou Yezi's thousand-year-old Taoism could not withstand fate after all. In this case, the dust returns to the dust, and I will also put down one thing on my mind.

"After Mr. Ou left, I closed for three months to reflect on what I had learned. There are countless books in my Sword Villa, and 70% or 80% of the martial arts classics in the world have been collected. After I became famous at the age of 12, I traveled around the world, exchanged with people everywhere, and spent eight years collecting all the world's martial arts collections. At that time, I was proficient in superior swordsmanship, no more than 10,000 kinds.

Although the matter of immortality is remote, my divine sword villa has a transcendent status and has always heard of it. It has also been a generational relationship with Qingcheng and Emei, who established a sect in Shu. Those practitioners have strict sects, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter. However, as the heir of the Sword Villa, it is not difficult for me to get some inheritance formulas. Although the practitioners have vast magical powers, they are not immortals after all. In the secular world, they need to borrow a lot of secular power. Therefore, whether it is the Zhou court, various princes, or us, they all have always had contact with the practice sect. Although the road to cultivate immortals is slim, there is a way to follow for our generation after all.

"Before I met Mr. Ou, I had read a lot of Taoist collections, and even worshipped Emeimen and became a registered disciple. But a long talk with Mr. Ou changed my mind.

Why should the road to heaven be in the hands of a few people? Relying on a thousand-year inheritance, these immortals have cut off the way for secular people to practice, using martial arts and Taoism as bait to slaughter the world and restrain the world. If I don't plan for myself, it will naturally be a smooth road to enter Mr. Ou's door. But as soon as you enter the Taoist sect, you must abide by their rules, follow their precepts, and finally be assimilated by this stagnant Taoist sect. Only by starting a new stove and don't take a different path can we jump out of this infinite cycle and break the arbitrariness of the path of the practice party since ancient times.

"So after I left the customs, I abandoned what I had learned in my life, studied numerology such as Lianshan, Guizang, Zhou Yi, etc., and traveled through the landscape and customs of the world, and searched for famous teachers and scholars to learn. After the age of 40, I learned martial arts and swordsmanship all my life, deleted the complexity and simplified it, spit out the old and accepted the new. Ten years, finally, in the year of knowing the fate, I felt the cycle of heavenly principles and opened up an unprecedented road.

Chongguang asked curiously, "What is your way?"

Xie Xiaofeng did not answer directly, but asked him, "Do you know how many swords I learned before I was 40?" Without waiting for Chongguang to answer, he gave the answer himself: "There are more than 48,000 kinds, almost all the ancient swordsmanship. After ten years of closed cultivation, I turned swordsmanship into swordsmanship. When I got out of the customs, do you know how many other swordsmanships I have?

Chongguang did not answer, and Xie Xiaofeng did not expect him to answer, but solved the mystery himself: "There are only two kinds, one is death and the other is life!" Chongguang took a long breath and praised, "Good swordsmanship, good swordsmanship!"

is indeed a good sword. Xie Xiaofeng has been closed for ten years. With his personal talent and thousands of years of accumulation, he actually broke the boundaries that countless martial artists can't practice all their lives and opened up a path to heaven that no one had ever thought of before. The ultimate meaning of martial arts in the world, which is combined with Taoism and exhausts martial arts to kill and defeat the enemy, is called death. And with this sword to dominate the world, where can't you get it, and who can compete with the opponent?

The sword of death is already the end of martial arts in the world, which can be said to be in line with the way of heaven. At the extreme of Taoism, Xie Xiaofeng also understands the principle of positive and negative poles and cathode yang, and practiced the sword meaning of life in the end, which can benefit the world and create all things, which is called life. If the sword of death is called a sword to break ten thousand laws, the sword meaning of life can be called a sword to live ten thousand laws. Such a combination of life and death is in the palm of your hand. This is more than a simple way to kill.

The praise of Chongguang comes from the heart. Since learning Taoism, he has often been conceited with his extraordinary talent. However, looking back, I didn't roll in the circle designated by my predecessors. The introduction is Kunlun Taoism, the foundation is the legacy of the Snow Mountain, the elixir is inherited by Shen Shengyi, and the refining into Yuanying depends on the secret records of the Phoenix clan. What I have learned all my life is to follow the rules and follow the framework of predecessors. In the final analysis, I am just a prisoner under the inheritance of Taoism.

When I couldn't feel it, I also thought about specializing in martial arts, but secular martial artists, even if they can sense the spirit of heaven and earth, can only resist the magic power of the enemy's foundation monks. At that time, I never thought of finding another way to break this layer of constraints. That's why I was so ecstatic after breaking through the induction.

And all the laws in the world are the same. It is the principle of saints. Everyone puts the hope of breaking the constraints of heaven on practice and inheritance. In fact, isn't Buddhism and Tao a family? Isn't there any inheritance on the side door? However, these have gone through thousands of years and become the eternal principle. Although there is a difference between doors, they are regarded as the number of practices. No one has ever thought about how the original pioneer was.

Xie Xiaofeng opened his door and controlled the spirit of heaven and earth with his sword, and his own practice has explored the way of heaven and reached the realm of soaring in the legend. As long as he is willing, he can step out of the boundary between heaven and man and become an immortal.

"It's not enough, it's still a little bit." Xie Xiaofeng did not accept his admiration, but pointed to the calligraphy and painting on the wall and asked in a low voice, "Do you know why I hung such a word in my grass hall?"

He asked himself and solved the mystery again: "One sword is determined to die, one sword is determined to live, two ways of life and death, between one sword. But after all, it is life and death. His tone was bleak and with three points of doubt: "The strokes in this word are originally Yang Fu in the gossip, which is called Yiyuan. The number of Dayan is fifty, and it is used for forty nine, and only the one that escapes is the source of all changes. Before the opening of heaven and earth, the Hongmeng universe was originally chaotic, with no difference between yin and yang, and the five elements had not been opened, so how could it be said to live and die?

"I could have broken the void in one step and fly to heaven from then on, but my way is not finished yet. I want to turn the two swords of life and death into one. Once a sword comes out, if you want to die, you will die. If you want to live, you will live. Life and death are a sword, and there is no separation between yin and yang. From then on, ten thousand swords return to one and return to the chaotic road of Hongmeng's unbroken time.
