Chapter 77: As a teacher, I only preach but not the Dharma (please update)

There was only a booklet and two spiritual crystals in the bag, and no other items.

Li Xuan looked disappointed.

Xue Wuxin is a poor man.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart: "You are a demon cultivator. Isn't it normal to kill people and steal treasures? You are about to flee to the frontier. Don't you plan to collect some treasures to use in the frontier?"

"You are such a piece of trash. I've thrown your ashes into the air. It's not unfair at all!"

I looked at the bag and saw that it was just an ordinary bag, not a storage bag or anything like that.

He threw it aside casually.

"I don't know if there are any treasures like storage bags in the inner realm."

I sighed in my heart, should I find an apprentice with a talent for refining weapons, compile a set of weapon refining methods for him, and let him understand them and refine things like storage bags?

"I don't know how to refine weapons. Is it a bit difficult to compile it? I still need to go to the inner domain to find the weapon refining method in the inner domain and use it as a reference to make it perfect.

"Only in the inner realm can there be such a weapon-refining monster, right?"

Li Xuan thought about it in his heart.

However, after all, refining weapons does not make oneself stronger, so there is no urgency for the moment. We will wait until we can find such a monster in the future.

Put away the spiritual crystal.

Look at the blood-red booklet.

Opening it, four words came into view.

"Blood Demon Sutra!"

At first glance, it looks like a magic technique.

But Li Xuan didn't care. He didn't want to practice these techniques, but just reference them to understand the inner martial arts.

"This is actually a fragment of a book?"

Li Xuan was surprised.

The Blood Devil's Classic is incomplete and part of it is missing. It is just a fragment.

Even though it was just a fragment, it actually allowed Xue Wuxin to cultivate to the master level, and even to the grand master level.

So, can the complete Blood Demon Sutra be practiced to become a great master?

Li Xuan looked at the Blood Demon Sutra, and it turned out that it was indeed a demonic technique, which was based on swallowing blood essence, refining blood essence, and strengthening oneself.

The purer and more powerful the blood essence is, the greater the improvement will be.

This is also the reason why Xue Wuxin is targeting Meng Chong.

It also records the special secret technique of the Blood Demon Sutra, the blood-eating ghost thread, which is used to swallow the essence and blood.

"There are some tricks."

Li Xuan was surprised, and the Blood Devil Sutra gave him some inspiration.

For example, the technique of swallowing essence and blood, and the blood-eating ghost thread.

Naturally, he wouldn't be able to compile techniques that swallow blood essence, but he could use this as a reference to compile some more subtle and upright techniques.

"The new martial arts system is almost ready."

After reading the Blood Demon Sutra, Li Xuan had some ideas in his mind.

In addition to physical martial arts, there is a new martial arts training system, but it is not perfect for the time being, it is just an idea.

Moreover, it is also necessary to find the right person to realize it.

"The Blood Devil's Manual is a very powerful demonic technique in the inner realm. Xue Wuxin is not a weak one among the masters... However, the Blood Devil's Manual belongs to the Yin and Evil type of techniques and will be restrained by Qi and blood."

The Qi and Blood Realm is as blazing as fire, which can restrain the evil energy of the Blood and Devil Sutra.

If they were to fight in the same realm, warriors who practiced the Blood Devil Sutra would be restrained in every aspect.

"However, Qi and blood are also a great temptation for them."

Why does Xue Wuxin long for Meng Chong’s essence and blood?

Why do you long for Xu Yan's essence and blood? It's precisely because of this.

The essence and blood of warriors in the Qi and Blood Realm are more vigorous and purer than those of warriors in the inner realm. For those who practice the Blood Demon Sutra, it is a great treasure!

After reading through the Blood Demon Scripture, Li Xuan memorized the above content word for word.

As he thought, the Blood Devil Sutra turned into powder and disappeared.

Naturally, this book of magic skills cannot be left behind. If one day I am careless or forget it, and someone is found to have picked it up after leaving here, wouldn't it mean that a demon cultivator will appear?

Although Bianhuang cannot produce warriors, if it consumes blood essence with the Blood Devil Meridian, it can still improve its strength.

Although it is impossible to break through the upper limit in the frontier wilderness due to the disappearance of the world's spiritual power, the strength can probably be improved to that of a fifth- and sixth-grade warrior in the inner domain.

This is definitely not a good thing for Bianhuang.

I have memorized this technique, so of course I don’t feel relieved until it is destroyed.

…

Outside Yunshan County, in the mountains and forests.

Li Xuan put one hand behind his back and looked at the sky in the distance.

Xu Yan held a sword and stood respectfully behind him.

"Disciple, you have to remember that a master only teaches Taoism, not Dharma, so what I teach you as a master is the way of swordsmanship, not the swordsmanship..."

Li Xuan raised his hand and folded a branch in his hand, and said solemnly: "As my teacher has repeatedly emphasized, cultivation lies in enlightenment and understanding the true meaning. The same is true for the way of swordsmanship. You should keep an eye on it."

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan was excited.

Li Xuan pointed out a branch in his hand, and with a hiss, a burst of zhenqi shot out, shooting a hole directly in a big tree.

Xu Yan's eyes widened and he was shocked: "Master's swordsmanship... no, it's the way of swordsmanship, it's just powerful. Holding a branch in your hand and just pointing it at random is much more powerful than Xue Wuxin's sword energy."

After Li Xuan tried his hand, he began to wave the branch in his hand. The innate Qi was blessing the branch. It looked powerful, but in fact he was just making random gestures.

It is only because of the extremely powerful innate true energy that he can show such a powerful and fierce momentum.

Of course, it cannot be said that the gestures are completely blind. Some sword moves such as cutting, stabbing, picking, crossing, and wiping are also danced in a decent manner.

After a crackling gesture, Li Xuan put away the branches and asked in a deep voice: "Disciple, do you remember?"

Xu Yan nodded excitedly and said, "Master, I remember everything!"

Remember it all?

How can this work!

Li Xuan lifted the branch again and said in a deep voice: "Disciple, look again, remember, what I teach to my master is the way of swordsmanship, not swordsmanship. You must understand its true meaning!"

As he spoke, he began to make gestures with the branches in his hands, but this time he danced slowly. The gestures he made this time were based on the shape of the Tai Chi sword in his previous life.

The difference is that he uses his innate true energy to bless it.

It seemed that he was dancing slowly, but it seemed that a sword energy was forming around him. As he rotated, the momentum was quite terrifying.

Xu Yan stared at it, but he was a little confused, why was it so slow?

So slow, how to attack the enemy?

After Li Xuan finished his gesture, he asked again: "Disciple, do you remember it?"

"Master, I remember everything!"

"Where's the one in front?"

"Also remember."

This apprentice has such a good memory, he can remember everything in one go.

"Disciple, look again!"

Li Xuan waved the branch again.

This time, the branches danced very fast, waving with a crackling sound, and then stopped.

"Do you remember it?"

Xu Yan was a little confused at this moment.

Why are the sword moves different every time?

"Remember...remember."

Xu Yan nodded.

"Where's the one in front?"

"Remember... I remember 90% of it!"

Xu Yan was suddenly stunned.

He still remembered all the slow sword moves in front of him.

But he only remembered 90% of the sword moves he performed for the first time, and he actually forgot a few sword moves!

"Why did I forget?"

Xu Yan was very upset.

However, Li Xuan was overjoyed and said: "Okay, disciple, look at it again!"

As he said this, he made another gesture!

Xu Yan was already confused: "I forgot, I didn't remember everything, but Master actually said yes?"

"Disciple, do you remember?"

Li Xuan put away the branches and asked.

"I-I didn't remember everything!"

Xu Yan had a look of shame on his face. He was distracted just now and didn't remember the sword move made by his master just now.

"Okay, okay, my disciple, you are one step closer to understanding the art of swordsmanship!"

Li Xuan said happily.

What?

Xu Yan was confused. He couldn't remember the sword moves, so why was he one step closer to understanding the way of the sword?

"wrong!

"I definitely didn't understand the profound meaning of Master's words."

Xu Yan fell into deep thought, and his powerful brain supplement ability was coming into play.

"Master repeatedly emphasized that he only taught Taoism, not Dharma. What he taught me was swordsmanship, not swordsmanship...

"You want me to understand the true meaning and the way, not the sword skills, so what I have to do is not memorize the sword moves.

"But forget about sword moves!

"Don't be constrained by sword moves, don't be constrained by situations, be fully integrated, and do whatever you want..."

At this moment, Xu Yan felt that he understood the profound meaning of his master.

In his mind, he began to recall the sword moves that the master had just performed, fast, slow, swift, tricky...

Gradually, the sword moves before and after overlapped and merged in his mind, and slowly it seemed like a new sword technique appeared in his mind.

"I have to learn to forget!"

Xu Yan warned himself in his heart.

"Master, I have forgotten half of it!"

Xu Yan opened his mouth and said.

"well!"

Li Xuan was overjoyed. This apprentice has entered the state of enlightenment, which is a good thing.

This shows that he has already taken a solid step towards realizing the way of swordsmanship.

Xu Yan is indeed talented in the way of swordsmanship, and he is very evil.

"Disciple, please wait and see!"

Li Xuan started gesticulating again.

Naturally, it is different from the previous ones.

In fact, every time he made a gesture, he had carefully considered it. The first time it was a similar sword technique and sword move, and the second time it was Tai Chi sword, walking slowly but stepping on Tai Chi.

The third time was swift, the fourth time was cunning, and the fifth time was completely chaotic.

There are fast, slow, violent, tricky and unstructured methods, so naturally it is up to Xu Yan to figure it out on his own.

"Master, I forgot half of it!"

Xu Yan spoke after reading it.

"Very good, look again!"

Li Xuan continued to gesture.

Next, he gestured several times in succession, and Xu Yan looked sometimes confused, sometimes thoughtful, and sometimes enlightened...

In his mind, he disrupted all the sword moves again, overlapping each other, merging with each other, or interweaving them again, over and over again.

A set of sword techniques seemed to appear in his mind.

Li Xuan stood aside and watched his apprentice comprehend.

The time is almost here.

The compiled realm of swordsmanship should also be told to the apprentice, so that the apprentice can better understand the swordsmanship from it.

If successful, this is another huge gain.

Xu Yan opened his eyes, with a slightly confused look in his eyes.

He felt confused.

A mess of sword moves were waving in my mind, and I couldn't find the direction at all.

The specious swordsmanship never took shape.

He felt that he might have gone in the wrong direction.

At this moment, he had forgotten the sword skills taught by his master, and could not remember at all how to perform the original sword skills.

"Master, I forgot everything!"

Li Xuan said happily: "Forget well, forget well, disciple, you are not far away from understanding the way of swordsmanship!"

Give your apprentice a tube of chicken blood.

Sure enough, when Xu Yan heard this, he immediately became energetic and his eyes lit up.

"Apprentice, what I taught you is the way of swordsmanship. There are thousands of warriors in the world, but only a few can enter the way of swordsmanship. But if you want to enter the way of swordsmanship, you first need to break away from the scope of swordsmanship.

"Don't let yourself be imprisoned by swordsmanship and sword moves."

Li Xuan turned sideways and raised his head. The mysterious aura on his body gave him a blessing, and his image as a master suddenly rose to an infinite level.

Xu Yan's body trembled and he said respectfully: "Master, please give me some guidance!"

"The fact that you can forget the sword technique and the sword moves that I just performed shows that you are qualified in swordsmanship and will not be imprisoned by sword techniques and sword moves.

“But it’s not enough!

"If you want to understand the way of the sword, if you want to enter the way of the sword, only those with a clear sword heart can step into the way of the sword."

Li Xuan said in a deep voice.

"The sword's heart is clear?"

Xu Yan was shocked and asked respectfully: "Master, what is the clear heart of the sword?"

"The clear heart of the sword is the basic state of swordsmanship. Those with clear sword hearts are not limited to sword techniques and sword moves, and the heart of the sword is clear.

"The heart of the sword is the clear heart of the sword, and the transparency is any sword move or sword technique. It can be seen through at a glance, and the flaws, good and bad points of the sword technique can be seen at a glance.

"You can pick it from swordsmanship and sword moves at a glance, use them freely, and make them your own sword moves and sword skills."

Li Xuan explained to Xu Yan the basics of practicing swordsmanship and the clear heart of the sword.

Xu Yan was shocked, "The clear heart of the sword is the clarity of the heart of the sword. The transparency is that you can see the flaws, good and bad points of the sword technique at a glance, pick it up and use it as you like."

In his mind, the scene of his master using his sword skills appeared.

Gradually, a set of sword techniques that have not yet been formed emerged. I picked them out, overlapped, merged, and interspersed them.

If you can overlap and integrate them completely to form a set of sword techniques of your own, you can use them as you like.

Is it because the sword's heart is clear?

He understood something clearly and said: "Master, the sword's heart is clear. Even though I have no sword skills or sword moves, other people's sword skills are my sword skills, and other people's sword moves are mine." Sword moves.

"The enemy's swordsmanship seems to be unobstructed and transparent in my eyes. I can easily see through his flaws and predict how his sword will strike..."

Li Xuan was overjoyed, Xu Yan was not far away from Mingwu Sword Heart, and the realm of swordsmanship he had made up was finally coming out.

"In layman's and simple terms, this is the case. Being able to achieve this step shows that Kenshin Tongmei has started."

Li Xuan nodded with a pleased tone.

"Master, I understand somewhat, but I still don't quite understand..."

Xu Yan fell into deep thought.

"Disciple, the sword's heart is clear. It can only be realized by oneself. Once you realize it, you will be enlightened. If you don't understand it, you will not understand it."

Li Xuan said in a deep voice.

He doesn't even have a clear sword mind, he just made it up, how to get started, what methods are there, how does he know?

It's all up to the apprentice to use the monster's brain power and the monster's understanding to understand it on his own.

"Disciple, first of all, the sword's heart must be clear. Only when the sword's heart is clear can it be clear, and a clear sword's heart will not imprison itself by sword techniques or sword moves.

"You should study hard and realize it. I believe you can realize it."

After Li Xuan finished speaking, he left the forest, leaving Xu Yan alone to slowly comprehend.
