Chapter 284 The Difficulty of Sword Path
Xiao Yun sighed. It seems that whether it is practicing the "Universe Sword Canon" to achieve enlightenment, or practicing the Time Sword and Space Sword, it is not an easy task to subdue the imperial weapon on the Sword God Mountain.
That's right, it has not been easy to achieve enlightenment and obtain the imperial weapon since ancient times.
How many emperors have there been in the past and present? How many imperial weapons have there been?
If the difficulty is not great, the emperors and imperial weapons would have been everywhere.
Lei Zhan looked at Xiao Yun, who was depressed, and guessed Xiao Yun's thoughts. He smiled and comforted him: "Boy, don't think too much. In fact, I don't think you can subdue that imperial weapon. Everything depends on fate."
As the strongest sword saint, he knew very well how difficult it was to comprehend the Time Sword and Space Sword. He didn't have much hope for Xiao Yun.
The previous transaction was just a casual remark, just like buying a lottery ticket. It would be best if Xiao Yun could succeed, but he would not lose anything if he failed.
Xiao Yun nodded, and then asked curiously: "Senior, it is said that it is difficult to achieve enlightenment in the sword path. So far, there has not been a sword emperor. Is this true?"
Lei Zhan nodded and sighed: "Yes, there has not been a great emperor in our sword path so far. Even the great way to the sky like the Chaos Avenue is not as difficult to practice as our sword path. So far, only the Chaos Emperor has succeeded in the Chaos Avenue, and no one in our sword path has succeeded."
Xiao Yun was stunned, and then thought about it.
The practice of the Chaos Avenue is very difficult, and a chaotic body is required to practice successfully. So far, only the founder has a chaotic body and has achieved the Chaos Emperor.
Even the "Chaos Sutra" created by the founder is so difficult to practice, which shows how difficult it is to achieve enlightenment in the Chaos Avenue.
And the sword path has no sword emperor at all.
This is too difficult.
The senior who created the Seven-Colored Sword and the senior who created the "Universe Sword Canon" are both top sword masters, but none of them have achieved the Dao of the Great Emperor.
The Dao of the Sword is difficult, too difficult.
Xiao Yun frowned, looked at Lei Zhan, and asked: "Senior, in theory, as long as you comprehend the remaining few mysteries, you can achieve the Dao of the Great Emperor. Is it so difficult?"
"Do you know how many mysteries are left in the Dao of Thunder Sword?" Lei Zhan rolled his eyes and asked Xiao Yun in return.
Xiao Yun shook his head and smiled: "How can the junior know?"
Lei Zhan smiled bitterly: "That's right, you don't know, I don't know, no one knows, so we can only rely on guessing. If you guess right, you will succeed in achieving the Dao, but what if you guess wrong?"
"Guess wrong?" Xiao Yun was stunned, a little puzzled.
Lei Zhan said dimly: "For example, if I think that the Sword of Thunder has only four mysteries, namely 'speed, destruction, life, and death', what will happen if I go to prove the truth now?"
"What will happen?" Xiao Yun asked curiously.
Lei Zhan took a breath and said seriously: "If the Sword of Thunder lacks other mysteries, then my Sword of Thunder is not perfect yet. When I prove the truth, my Sword of Thunder will collapse. Under the Emperor's Tribulation, I will definitely be destroyed and die."
"Hiss!" Xiao Yun took a breath of cold air when he heard this. It turns out that proving the truth is so dangerous.
Once you take the wrong path, you can't even regret it, and you will die.
Looking at Xiao Yun who was horrified, Lei Zhan smiled bitterly and sighed: "This is why it is difficult to prove the Dao of Sword, while other Daos, even the Chaos Dao, only need to take one path, one mystery, although it is also very difficult, but at least there is no need to guess, because there is only one, and there is no need to guess at all, they know that is the right path."
"But our Sword Dao, in the end, we have to guess, which is too difficult."
Xiao Yun nodded, it is too difficult, this Nima actually has to guess, who knows how many mysteries a sword contains, five? Six? Seven?
Damn, if you guess wrong, you will die.
No wonder throughout the ages, so many amazing geniuses, so many sword saints, none of them succeeded in proving the Dao.
This is simply against the sky.
No, isn't the ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land the Sword Emperor?
Xiao Yun suddenly looked up at Lei Zhan and asked in confusion: "Senior, you said that no one has achieved the Dao of Sword Emperor. Didn't the founder of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land succeed?"
As far as he knew, the six holy places in the Central Plains were all founded by a great emperor. The Heavenly Sword Holy Land follows the way of swordsmanship, but the founder of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land didn't succeed? Then how did he become a great emperor?
Lei Zhan shook his head and sneered, "The founder of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land? He didn't become an emperor by following the sword path. He followed other paths. He just practiced the sword path because the sword path had strong attack power."
"In fact, the practitioners of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land only practiced the sword path. In their hands, the sword path is only used to pave the way for other paths. They use the sword path to kill the enemy and then prove their own path."
Xiao Yun was speechless when he heard this. So that's what happened. He couldn't help but complain, "It's a pity that the founder of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land still has the face to call himself the Heavenly Sword Emperor. It turns out that he didn't become an emperor by following the sword path at all."
"So he can only be called the Heavenly Sword Emperor, not the Sword Emperor!" Lei Zhan sneered, "If he became an emperor by following the sword path, his talent must be strong. Coupled with the attack power of the sword path, he would definitely become the Heavenly Emperor. And the Heavenly Sword Emperor is far worse than the Heavenly Emperor."
Xiao Yun nodded. That's what happened.
The Avenue of Chaos can reach the level of the Heavenly Emperor. The way of the sword is so difficult to prove, and the attack power is so strong. Once the proof is successful, he will definitely become a Heavenly Emperor in the future.
But, the secrets of the swordsmanship actually have to be guessed?
This is really annoying.
Xiao Yun looked at Lei Zhan and asked: "Senior, are you still not sure how many secrets there are in the swordsmanship of thunder?"
Lei Zhan shook his head and sighed: "I can only see that my swordsmanship of thunder is not perfect yet, at least it is still lacking one secret, but whether it is really only lacking one secret, I can't tell, I can only wait until I comprehend the next secret."
Xiao Yun speculated: "Senior, do you think there are nine secrets in total? As the saying goes, nine is the number."
Lei Zhan's face turned green when he heard this, bastard, don't talk nonsense, damn it, I have practiced for thousands of years and only comprehended four secrets. If there are really nine secrets, then I can't prove my Dao
Lei Zhan said angrily He glared at Xiao Yun and said with a dark face: "You might as well say that there are ten mysteries in total, and ten is the perfect number."
Xiao Yun laughed and said: "Senior, ten is perfect, but as the saying goes, the sun is long and then it sets, the moon is full and waxes, the Great Dao has fifty, the sky has forty-nine, and people have one. So, minus the one that escaped, there are only nine left in ten."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yun's eyes lit up, and he continued: "So, there may be forty-nine mysteries, which is also very consistent with the laws of the Great Dao. After all, we want to prove the Great Dao, so naturally we have to conform to the laws of the Great Dao."
Lei Zhan's face was completely black. He pointed outside the hall and said gloomily: "Get out of here, I don't want to see you again"
Forty-nine?
You really dare to say that.
You are asking me to die.
Only a ghost can comprehend forty-nine mysteries.
This is not the way to prove the Dao, this is a dead end.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun hurriedly smiled and said, "Senior, I'm just guessing, don't be angry."
Lei Zhan's face was dark, and he didn't want to pay attention to him.
The reason why he was angry was not because Xiao Yun was talking nonsense.
If Xiao Yun was really talking nonsense, would he, a quasi-emperor who had lived for thousands of years, be so critical of a junior?
He would just laugh it off and not take it seriously.
The problem is... the key is... he actually thought that what Xiao Yun said made some sense!
Nine is the extreme number, and forty-nine conforms to the law of the Tao.
Damn, I can't think too much, or I'll go crazy.
Lei Zhan's heart was a little confused.
He suddenly felt that meeting Xiao Yun today was a big mistake.
At their level, once their hearts were confused and they had wild thoughts, it would be a big problem.
If he really tried to comprehend the nine or forty-nine mysteries, what would he achieve?
But he couldn't help thinking about it, because he also felt that what Xiao Yun said made sense.
It would be fine if he didn't hear what Xiao Yun said, but since he heard it, he couldn't pretend he didn't hear it.
Lei Zhan was a little upset. He looked at Xiao Yun, who was smiling apologetically. That smile was a little annoying, which made him very unhappy.
"Bang!"
Lei Zhan slapped him.
The next moment, Xiao Yun was like a meteor, drawing a perfect parabola in the air and flew out of the palace.
