Talisman Emperor
Round 67 – Wind Dao Insight
One month later, at the top of Mount Embracing the Moon.
Chen Xi held the Seventhgold Swordbamboo in her hand while under Ji Yu's attentive gaze. He took a breath and his wrist trembled, Galeflash Shadow splashed.
Hissing! Hissing! Hissing! Hissing!
Countless sharp sword lines were like billowing waves that surged as the sound of wind and lightning howling sounded with a buzz. The sky and earth seemed to be filled with a cold and dazzling light that flowed profusely like a shadow.
Whooshing sound!
A sword light flashed, and the scene suddenly changed.
The sword image was fine and lingered in the air continuously, then causing a circle of ripples to surge in the air. The ripples looked soft and smooth, yet they instantly whipped out the clouds in an area of 30 meters into completely diffused dust.
That move impressed the second step of the Window Divination Sword – Breezy Rain!
"This boy is not bad, Breezy Rain emphasized on the word inherent, and contained a hidden killing intent within it. He clearly had mastered his essence. "Near him, Ji Yu nodded unconsciously.
Step three, Dark Storm – Sword images roared quickly and quickly as they advanced, retreated, and circled around. For a time, the sword images were like clouds as they covered the entire sky, and everywhere the sweeping sword images were filled with dense and hard sword qi.
Fourth step, Tide Squall – Sword image howled like a raging wave, the sword force was strong and uncontrollable as it moved freely and violently, like a myriad of huge waves overlapping each other to surge in waves. heaven and earth, like waves rising from the blue sea.
Whooshing sound!
Chen Xi stopped and put away his sword after executing four sword technique moves, then he lightly spat out a mouthful of dirty air, looking calm and collected.
“Now bad, you've really mastered the first four moves. "Ji Yu nodded and evaluated. "But, the unity stage is not bound by movement, and once you have fully comprehended it, then the stab of your sword will be able to harness the energy of heaven and earth. Only that is considered a true stage of unity. ”
Chen Xi nodded and accepted Ji Yu's teachings.
Furthermore, Ji Yu began to appraise the Windwing Divine Flight that Chen Xi had processed.
The two arrived at the dense and green sea of bamboo behind the Moon Embracing Mountain.
“This bamboo sea is approximately 50 km away, all you need to do is go back and forth through it. You should not touch the stems or leaves on the road, and the tip of your foot should not touch the ground. "Ji Yu instructed indifferently. "You have to finish it within ten breaths. ”
There are difficulties in completing this task!
As he stared at the dense and luxurious sea of bamboo, Chen Xi could not help but frown.
He had only started cultivating the Divine Windwing Flight half a month ago, but he had always cultivated it at the peak of the Moon Hugging Mountain. It was very wide there and the mountain wind whistled. Thus he could fly deliberately in the air and it was very satisfying.
However, at this moment, when faced with this sea of bamboo, and wanting to pass through the entire sea of bamboo within ten breaths without touching a single stem or leaf, this was no easy feat.
"Worry you can't do it?" Ji Yu shook his head and sneered. “Tes is still the most basic. The battle between cultivators was done while flying across heaven and earth, and would not stop. It's not as you might imagine, brainstorming is simple, but it's the utilization of your abilities while using every trick on your arm. For example, fighting while shifting like a ghost. If your movement technique is inferior, then not to mention fighting, I'm afraid you won't even be able to dodge the opponent's attack. ”
The doubt in Chen Xi's heart was completely intensified from what Ji Yu said and it turned into a reluctance that emerged from her heart. He instantly tapped the tip of his foot on the ground, and his figure turned into a beam of light as he charged into the luxurious bamboo forest in the blink of an eye.
Whooshing sound!
A piercing cold wind flashed from his side, but Chen Xi maintained her diving posture as she looked concentrated and unblinkingly into the distance.
He could not touch the bamboo stems or leaves, so he changed his direction to surround the dense bamboo gathering together. However, changing direction is a waste of time. Even if it was only for a moment, for Chen Xi who had to travel through the sea of bamboo within ten breaths, it was undoubtedly an enormous waste.
After a while, Chen Xi flew out of the sea of bamboo.
“26 breaths time, not good enough. "Ji Yu shook his head nonstop.
Chen Xi had an expressionless face as she flew once again.
“18 breaths, not good enough. ”
“12 breaths, touching three bamboo leaves, not good enough. ”
"…Not good enough . ”
The words 'not good enough' filled Chen Xi's mind all afternoon. The voice was calm and indifferent, yet it seemed like a nightmare that caused him not only to feel ashamed, but also to actually awaken stubbornness and stubbornness in his head. After Ji Yu left, he went back and forth within the sea of bamboo alone without slacking off in the slightest.
Every time when he was exhausted to the point that he could barely hold on, it seemed like the words 'not good enough' were lightly thrown from Ji Yu's mouth and echoed in his ears, then he would once again grit his teeth and stand up to once again enter the sea of bamboo …
Bang out!
Sweat flowed on his body like a snake and his heavy breathing echoed in the night sky. Chen Xi was unable to stand up and she fell flat on her back. The True Essence within his body was completely squeezed, to the point he was not even willing to move a finger.
He just lay there like that, staring blankly at the sky above him which was covered by various stars, leaving his sweat flowing down his body like many streams.
"Ten breaths of time, I'm only a step away .." Chen Xi's throat was extremely hoarse and her eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness. He was completely unaware that Ji Yu was standing in the distance quietly watching him attentively, and that his experienced eyes revealed a rare trace of admiration.
Ten days later.
Chen Xi disappeared before the sea of bamboo with a swoosh. '
Swooshes! Swooshes!
Looking down from the air, at this moment, Chen Xi was like an extremely nimble black lightning strike within the luxurious sea of bamboo as he dodged past the dense group of bamboo leaves and flashed past the many sturdy bamboo stalks. His speed was so fast that the sight of an ordinary person was completely unable to catch up to him!
After a short moment, Chen Xi quickly threw out a sea of bamboo.
“Eight breath time, not bad. It's much better than I expected. "Ji Yu nodded while praising.
The feeling as if he was in another world could not help but appear in Chen Xi's heart when he heard Ji Yu finally stop saying 'not good enough,' yet he was not excited, yet he was not excited, due to the hardships and sweat he had endured these past few days had completely turned into a calm calm that was like a calm lake.
“Now that your sword technique and movement technique have reached the unity stage, if you want to continue advancing, then you must understand. "Ji Yu pondered before saying," Basic, go forward, unity, they can all be achieved by relying on diligent and bitter training. The fourth stage, Dao Insight, instead requires you to understand the Dao of Heaven, and when you can understand the strands of Dao meaning, you will be able to form Sword Insight and Movement Insight. ”
Understanding the Dao of Heaven …
Chen Xi's brain was buzzing and it was as if he was suddenly enlightened.
In the past, he had always heard people say that the most important thing in the path of cultivation was to understand the great meaning behind the Dao of Heaven, he said, because only then can one walk to the top of the Dao. But at that moment, his cultivation was low and he did not know any of this. He kept feeling that it was too far away, so he never paid any attention to it.
Now that he had advanced to the Violet Palace Realm to build the foundation of the Grand Dao and experienced many days of cultivation, he subconsciously had a faint trace of vague perception of the Grand Dao. Right now, when Ji Yu revealed the truth, it felt as if a new window was being pushed open before him, and he saw a completely new and incredible world!
Dao Insight's!
No wonder it was only after advancing to the Violet Palace Realm that one was considered to have actually stepped onto the path to immortality! So it turned out that only in the Violet Kingdom Palace would one have a completely new perception of the surrounding world.
At this moment, Chen Xi was full of excitement.
However, the Dao of Heaven is vast and shrouded in mystery, how exactly do I understand the deep meaning within it?
After a long time, Chen Xi's mood finally returned to a calm state and she thought of the problem she had to solve now – How to understand Dao?
“Cultivate bitterly and diligently, visualize, and meditate, then wait for luck to arrive. “Ji Yu replied in a very concise, yet cryptic way.
Think about it, if there was a method to understand the Grand Dao, then everyone in the world would have stepped on the path towards the Grand Dao long ago.
Good luck?
Chen Xi frowned as she pondered, and she still shook her head after quite a long time. These things that luck could meet but not seek, were things that were impossible for him to have the determination that he would definitely get.
Ji Yu could not help but remind her when she saw this. “Ingenious. Let me ask you, are there any similarities between the Windowflow Divination Sword and the Divine Windwing Flight? ”
The similarity between sword technique and movement technique? They are both related to the wind .. Ah, the wind?
Chen Xi's eyes sparkled, as she already had a plan in her heart.
Ji Yu smiled and said, "Dao of Wind keeps changing: hard, soft, sharp, lingering. If you want to master the essence of the Window Divination Sword and the Divine Windwing Flight, then you must first know what the wind really is. ”
——
The wind!
Chen Xi sat cross-legged within the sea of clouds on the side of the Moon Moon Embrace cliff as she felt a mountain breeze whistling past her.
The mountain breeze moved quickly and was hard to find, but Chen Xi's sword techniques and movement techniques had long reached the unity stage, and he quickly merged his mind with the wind within the world.
As the wind flashed past the sea of clouds that were soaring and sweeping across his face, he would be able to clearly feel the speed, trajectory, power, and even every little detail in the subtle changes of the wind that appeared in his mind.
“This mountain wind is very cold like a sword and fast like lightning. "Three days later, Chen Xi opened her eyes, as if she understood something. Without the slightest hesitation, he stood up and flew into the air like a garuda, and in an instant he had already darted for 5 km. Compared to before, his movement technique vaguely carried within it a strand of inexplicable aura. It became deeper and faster.
After a short while, before a lake in the area of Moon's Embrace Mountain.
Chen Xi did not delay in the slightest before sitting on the ground to face the vast surface of the lake.
Swish!
The wind stirred the surface of the lake, causing wave after wave of ripples. As it passed through the lotus flower on the surface of the lake, it carried a trail of meekness, like a very loving person stroking the face of their lover.
"The wind of this lake is gentle and kind, and continuous like rain ..." Seven days later, Chen Xi opened her eyes once more, and the contemplating expression within her eyes became even stronger. He then got up and flew off to disappear by the lake.
Day after day passed, Chen Xi's footprints spread throughout the mountain peaks, lakes, rocky areas; during heavy rain, under the scorching sun … His perception of the wind grew deeper and deeper.
“Wind contains a myriad of changes, and its shape is constantly changing. Regardless of whether it was a strong wind, a light breeze, a mountain breeze, a lake breeze, and even a wind after rain; its speed, strength, and trajectory were completely different, displaying an enormous changing Dao. But what is the source of this change? "
Another month passed.
Chen Xi sat alone inside the residence as he pondered over every kind of wind he had comprehended during these past few days.
A change?
Why has that changed?
"Freedom! Without freedom, there is no wind! "
Chen Xi's body trembled. When luck came, the mind became clear, and it felt like he was breaking through paper and he was suddenly enlightened!
