Chapter 347: The Realm of Sword

Fang Yu nodded slightly: "Not bad!"

Then he carefully looked at Ximen Chuixue in front of him.

Ximen Chuixue was dressed in white, with snow in his white clothes. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. His face was stern, and his body exuded an aura of arrogance and indifference.

There is a kind of person who is close to the realm of God because he is already ruthless.

There is a kind of swordsmanship that no one can see, because everyone who was lucky enough to witness it has already died.

There is a kind of loneliness that cannot be described because it comes from the depths of the soul.

These three sentences describe the sword god Ximen Chuixue.

The sword is a holy item in ancient times. It is extremely noble and revered by both humans and gods.

The sword is the king of hundreds of weapons and the ancestor of short weapons.

In the past dynasties, princes, emperors, scholars, knights, merchants and common people all took pride in upholding it.

He remembered that in the martial arts novels written by Gu Longda, the only person who could be called the "Sword God" was Ximen Chuixue.

Sword Gods are different from Sword Immortals. It is not uncommon for Sword Immortals to control swords with their energy and kill people thousands of miles away with their swords. However, they are not Sword Gods because they all lack a sense of pride. Without this pride, they cannot become Sword Gods. .

With this arrogance of the Sword God, they can even regard their own lives as nothing.

Because they have already dedicated their lives to the Word they love.

The way of the Sword God is the sword.

They seek neither immortality nor Buddha. Success or failure in the world, fame and fortune, are not worth their care, let alone their smile.

All they want is the honor and glory when they swing their sword. For them, that moment is eternity.

In order to reach this moment of peak, they are even willing to sacrifice everything.

He remembered that Ximen Chuixue abandoned his wife and children in order to reach the realm of sword god.

The story about Ximen Chuixue suddenly appeared in his mind:

Ximen Chuixue comes from a good family and owns a house in [Wanmei Mountain Villa]. He learned swordplay at the age of seven. He is addicted to swords as much as his life. He regards killing as an art. After killing someone, he likes to blow the blood off the sword, just like someone returning at night shakes off the blood. snowflake.

He has a long body and an upright body, and his white clothes are as white as snow, but the sword at his waist is black. It is pitch black, long and narrow, and ancient. It is the most powerful weapon in the world. The sword has a blade of three feet and seven inches and a net weight of seven kilograms and thirteen taels.

Ximen Chuixue's swordsmanship is unparalleled, and he is as famous as Zen Master Dabei, the abbot of the Shaolin Sect, Mu Taoist, the elder of the Wudang Sect, Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, Huo Xiu, the richest man in the world, and Dugu Yihe, the head of the Emei Sect.

Ximen Chuixue is aloof by nature and always regards kendo as the highest pursuit of life. He gives people a feeling of ruthlessness and indifference.

But he had a friend in Lu Xiaofeng. Although he was stern, his occasional smile was very warm.

Ximen Chuixue may seem cold and arrogant, but he has a righteous heart. He only kills those who deserve to be killed. In order to avenge an unrelated person, he will bathe in fasting and travel thousands of miles to kill another unrelated person.

He remembered that in the "Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" he had seen in his previous life, Ximen Chuixue had a decisive battle with "Lord of Baiyun City" Ye Gucheng on the top of the Forbidden City on September 15th.

Ye Gucheng knew before the sword fight that this was a fatal situation, so he was able to kill Ximen Chuixue without killing him during the sword fight. Instead, he voluntarily died under Ximen Chuixue's sword, because in Ye Gucheng's view, this was a swordsman. The most glorious way to die.

After the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City, Ximen Chuixue's swordsmanship became even more refined, reaching the realm of "No Sword". He was sincere and righteous, had no sword in his hand but had a sword in his heart, and everything in the world could be used as a sword, thus creating the name "Sword God".

Ximen Chuixue's only woman was his wife Sun Xiuqing, one of the Four Beauties of Emei, and they had a child. He was unable to develop his sword due to his love in his heart. In the end, he left his wife in order to pursue his sword and regained his love in his heart.

Fang Yu also practices swordsmanship, and he knows that the Sword God written in Jin Yong's capital is actually the ruthless swordsmanship.

In the ruthless swordsmanship, the sword cultivator understands the ruthless sword intention, ruthless love, and cuts the thread of love with the sword.

After knowing that the man in white was Ximen Chuixue, Fang Yu immediately wanted to conquer him.

After making a decision in his heart, Fang Yu smiled and said: "Your Excellency Ximen, I have seen the battle you just had with that tauren alien race in the early stage of the Dan Formation Realm. If I am not mistaken, you have already embarked on a ruthless path. The Road of Swords!”

Hearing this, Ximen Chuixue frowned and asked, "Your Excellency Fang Yu, what is the Great Way of the Ruthless Sword?"

When Fang Yu heard this, he remembered that Ximen Chuixue was in the early stage of the Dan Formation Realm and was far from the level of the 'Great Dao'.

Ximen Chuixue is only on the road to pursue the path of the ruthless sword.

The same is true for Fang Yu.

According to what Hongmeng Shu told him, if ordinary people want to come into contact with the Great Dao, they must at least break through to the Tribulation Realm.

He is currently in the Qi Condensation Realm, and is still six realms away from the Tribulation Overcoming Realm, let alone above the Tribulation Overcoming Realm.

Thinking of this, Fang Yu explained with a smile: "The ruthless swordsmanship is a kind of sword path. You are sincere to the sword, addicted to the sword as much as your life, and ruthless in your heart!"

Ximen Chuixue was thoughtful after hearing Fang Yu's explanation.

His situation is similar to what Fang Yu said. In this case, he has indeed embarked on the path of the ruthless sword as Fang Yu said.

At this moment, Fang Yu's voice sounded again: "Your Excellency Ximen, as far as I know, you are sincere to the sword and to people, and you are addicted to the sword as much as your life. However, you must know that the sword is just a weapon in your hand, and your swordsmanship is nothing more than that." It’s just a skill that shows your strength!”

"With all due respect, you have gone astray. If you continue to practice according to your cultivation method, sooner or later you will become a puppet of the sword and turn into a cold and heartless killing machine!"

"Because those who practice ruthless swordsmanship will eventually become ruthless and loveless, and their swords will cut off the love thread!"

Fang Yu's words were not to scare Ximen Chuixue, but the truth.

In the realm of Kaoren Kendo, Fang Yu far surpassed Ximen Chuixue.

When he was watching the battle just now, he discovered that Ximen Chuixue had not even reached the realm of [swordless], let alone the realm of the integration of human and sword.

The woman on the side heard this and looked at Ximen Chuixue with a worried expression.

When Ximen Chuixue heard this, her heart trembled.

He could feel that Fang Yu had not lied to him, because during this period, as he killed more people, the bloodthirsty desire in his heart became stronger.

And over the years, no one has seen his swordsmanship, because everyone who has seen his swordsmanship has died.

Even his only friend Lu Xiaofeng had never seen him practice swordsmanship.

He also did not practice swordsmanship in front of Lu Xiaofeng, because when he practiced swordsmanship, he had the urge to kill in his heart. He was worried that while he was practicing swordsmanship, he would suddenly get violent and kill Lu Xiaofeng.

Therefore, even though Lu Xiaofeng wanted to see his swordsmanship, he did not agree.

Moreover, sometimes the thought of killing Lu Xiaofeng emerged in his heart.

Suddenly remembering something, Ximen Chuixue clasped his fists and said, "May I ask Your Excellency Fang Yu, you are a swordsman, what kind of swordsmanship do you practice?"

In Ximen Chuixue's opinion, Fang Yu could tell what kind of swordsmanship he practiced just from his fight with the foreign tauren race. He must be a swordsman, and his swordsmanship level must be far beyond his.

Fang Yu smiled and said: "Yes, I also practice swordsmanship!"

Then he added: "As for the swordsmanship I practice, it should be called the swordsmanship of sentient beings!"

Ximen Chuixue frowned and asked again: "What is sentient swordsmanship?"

Fang Yu smiled and said: "Understand the sentimental sword intention, the stronger the love in your heart, the stronger the power of the sword. This is the sentimental sword!"

Ximen Chuixue frowned again, "Your Excellency Fang Yu, being passionate means that there is a flaw in your heart. As a result, you will not be able to use your full strength when facing the enemy because you have worries in your heart!"

Fang Yu said with a smile: "Your Excellency Ximen, as you said, being passionate means you have care in your heart!"

"Then let me ask you, after you have concerns in your heart, are you willing to die?"

Ximen Chuixue: "Of course I won't let go."

Fang Yu: "If you are not willing to die, you will naturally go all out, and the belief that you must win will arise in your heart. Human potential is unlimited. When the belief that you must win arises in your heart, the potential hidden in your body will be will be inspired."

After a pause, Fang Yu continued: "This is the same as when a person faces a desperate situation. When a person faces a desperate situation, his strength is often greater than usual. This is a sign of explosive potential!"

Hearing this, Ximen Chuixue seemed to have some understanding and nodded slightly.

Because he knew what Fang Yu said, but he didn't think about it carefully before.

Ximen Chuixue said again: "May I ask your Excellency, how many realms of swordsmanship are there?"

It's not easy to meet someone who is better than him in swordsmanship. Ximen Chuixue doesn't want to miss this rare opportunity.

Although he is arrogant, he is not arrogant to the point of being arrogant.

Ximen Chuixue knows that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.

Seeing Ximen Chuixue actually asking him for advice, Fang Yu's eyes flashed with surprise.

This was obviously different from the Ximen Chuixue he knew.

However, Fang Yu felt relieved as soon as he thought about it.

Ximen Chuixue has not yet reached his peak.

Fang Yu smiled and said: "Actually, I don't know how many realms there are in swordsmanship."

Then he changed the topic and continued: "But based on my own understanding, I temporarily divide the way of swordsmanship into eight realms."

"The first level of swordsmanship: comprehend the sword energy. After reaching the sword energy state, the sword energy can take shape!"

"Second level of swordsmanship: comprehend the sword light. After reaching the sword light level, you can cut out the sword light!"

"The third level of swordsmanship: understand the sword's strength, the sword's strength can protect the body!"

"The fourth level of swordsmanship: Understand the power of the sword, and you can use the power of people, terrain and the power of heaven!"

"The fifth level of the sword: comprehend the sword's intention. After comprehending the sword's intention, you can control the sword's intention!"

"The Sixth Level of Sword Dao: Understand the Sword Domain and Master the Space-Time Domain!"

"The seventh realm of swordsmanship: understanding the heart of the sword. After reaching this realm, it can also be called the 'swordless' realm. If there is a sword in the heart, everything in the world can be a sword!"

"The Eighth Level of Sword Dao: After understanding the sword soul and reaching the realm of sword soul, you can achieve the unity of man and sword. With one sword, ten thousand swords will surrender!"

Fang Yu did not make it up randomly. This was indeed something he understood after practicing the Hongmeng Sword Sutra to the Great Perfection.

Fang Yu is currently in the eighth realm, the realm of sword soul.

Dugu Qiubai, like Fang Yu, has also reached the realm of sword soul, which is also called the realm of "human and sword unity".

Although Song Que did not practice swordsmanship, his swordsmanship reached the state of "the unity of man and sword", which was comparable to Fang Yu's state of "the unity of man and sword".

Speaking of this, Fang Yu paused and continued: "Your Excellency Ximen, if I read correctly, your current swordsmanship realm should be the fourth realm!"

Ximen Chuixue secretly compared it and nodded slightly.

Then he asked with some curiosity: "May I ask, Sir Fang Yu, how far has your swordsmanship reached?"

Fang Yu didn't hide anything: "The eighth realm!"

Ximen Chuixue: "."

Ximen Chuixue looked at Fang Yu, opened her mouth, but stopped talking.
