The carriage stopped in the field in front of the Verdant Canyon.
The carriage did not have to come, but it still came.
This sentence had two meanings — the person in the carriage did not have to come, or the person's sword did not have to come, because that person's sword could reach tens of thousands of miles away.
The person in the carriage was Liu Bai.
He was recognized as the most powerful person in the world of cultivation and was called the Sage of Sword. He was a real powerhouse. Even those Unworldly Sublime Beings in the Unknown Place were not his match.
Especially when he held the sword in his hand, the area in front of him was his absolute territory. Even the Abbey Dean of Zhishou Abbey and Eldest Brother could not enter.
Many people, including Second Brother, thought that with Liu Bai's peerless talent, he could surpass the threshold of the Five States if he wanted to. It was just that he did not want to.
Liu Bai's voice came from the carriage.
"Do you want to rest for a while?"
Second Brother looked at the carriage hundreds of feet away and tied the rope around his neck with his slender fingers. He said, "I don't know if I can still be as confident after a rest."
Liu Bai said in the carriage, "Then I won't rest."
Second Brother said, "If I had fought with you two days ago, I would have lost. Thank you for waiting until now."
Liu Bai said, "I also want to thank you for sparing the life of a useless disciple of the Sword Garret."
The conversation in front of the Verdant Canyon was very calm, gentle and full of kindness. No matter how one listened, one could not feel the tension of swords drawn and life and death at any moment.
There was no hatred between the Academy and the Sword Garret. Although Liu Yiqing was blinded by Ning Que, it was a fair duel. With Liu Bai's temperament and identity, he would not be angry.
This was something that the Academy did not understand.
Second Brother looked at the carriage in the field and asked, "Why did you come, Sir?"
The carriage was quiet. After a long time, Liu Bai's answer came.
"Even the Headmaster of the Academy could not do it. What can I do?"
Second Brother was silent for a moment and said, "The Headmaster is right. He is indeed not omniscient and omnipotent. He probably did not expect that after he left, the confidence in the world would be greatly weakened."
"Besides, I am a visiting professor of the Divine Hall."
Liu Bai's voice came from the carriage. "The whole world is against the Tang Empire. As a person of Jin, I have to show my attitude. It is also my wish to fight with the Academy."
"Right now, only you and Li Manman are worthy of my attention."
This sentence came from the Sage of Sword, Liu Bai, which showed his respect to the Academy. Second Brother didn't agree. He shook his head and said, "If there's a chance, I think Third Sister would like to learn from you."
Hearing this, Liu Bai fell silent. The carriage became quiet again.
After an unknown period of time, his somewhat shocked voice came from the car.
"Lin of the Academy".
Second Brother said, "Third Sister doesn't use this name anymore."
Liu Bai was indeed the most powerful man in the world. Whether it was wisdom or thinking, he was as fast as his sword. He deduced that the mysterious Twenty-Three-year Cicada Cultivation was in the Academy.
Without a doubt, this was the most shocking piece of news in the cultivation world in over 20 years. Even he couldn't help but feel extremely shocked after hearing this secret.
"It seems that Haotian Taoism underestimated the Academy."
Liu Bai said, "Xiong Chumo, that idiot, would definitely lose in the Academy. But I didn't know that he was also in the Academy. Now that I think about it, his ending must be worse than I thought."
This sentence also had two layers of meaning.
Liu Bai thought that the Twenty-Three-year Cicada Cultivation was stronger than the Hierarch of the Divine Halls of West-Hill.
As for himself, of course, he was stronger than the Hierarch of the Divine Halls of West-Hill.
"However, the general trend of the world is like a surging river that never returns. If you follow it, you will prosper and if you go against it, you will perish. Even if Lin Wu is in the Academy, the Academy can't go against Heaven."
Liu Bai's voice came from the carriage again. "Under the Abbey Dean's attack, your Senior Brother can only hold on for three more days. The Buddhism Sect hasn't taken any action yet. Today, Jun Mo, you and I will fight. No matter what, you can't fight anymore. The Verdant Canyon will open and the army will march north. The Tang Empire and the Academy will perish."
Second Brother said emotionlessly, "You are not a mediocre person. Why would you say such meaningless words? If everything in the world is destined, why do you come to the Verdant Canyon? Why do I come to the Verdant Canyon? Why do we stand in front of the Verdant Canyon? Why does the Verdant Canyon have to see us?"
Liu Bai said, "These are kind words. After all, we still have to discuss things with swords."
Second Brother asked, "When do we start?"
Liu Bai said, "Your sword is still being repaired. It won't be too late to repair it."
At this moment, a muffled sound came from under the iron canopy. The heavy iron hammer collided with the fiery red iron sword. Then, the hot sword entered the water with a sizzling sound and white mist.
Second Brother reached out and took over the repaired iron sword. He said, "The sword is repaired."
"Very good."
The cyan curtain of the carriage moved slightly and was lifted by a hand.
It was a big hand with slender and strong knuckles, which was suitable for holding a sword.
Liu Bai walked out of the carriage.
This Sword Sage, who was worshipped as a god by countless swordsmen, did not look special. His features were slightly sunken and his facial lines were well-defined. However, he was just an ordinary middle-aged man.
Ordinary was not only a description of him, but also the aura that he exuded. The aura that he exuded was also very ordinary and did not seem to be similar to the legends.
This was because his spirit and aura were not in his body, but in the sword.
The sword was at his side, in its sheath.
"In novels, legends, and unofficial history, we can often see the imagination of ordinary people about cultivators, or even the imagination of cultivators. They say that everything in the world is a sword, and that the strong can kill all the heroes in the world by picking a flower or a branch. However, these people who only know how to talk about swords are just laughable. "
Liu Bai looked at the iron sword in Second Brother's hand and said, "A sword is a sword. It can't be a flower or a grass, and it can't be a nothingness in one's hand. Because the sword must be hard, strong, straight, and sharp, so that it can travel outside the blue sky and fall thousands of miles away. Otherwise, it can't even cut the wind, and the friction will melt the sword. How can it break armor and kill people? When I see a person using a sword, I first see if he is using a good sword. "
"Today I saw two good swords. Ye Su's sword is made of strange wood, which is the best choice in terms of material. However, compared with your iron sword, it is still lacking. Because the sword must be made of iron. Only when the iron sword is stained with blood can it be called iron blood. Only then can you kill people freely. "
Liu Bai looked at the fire under the canopy and the simple and honest Sixth Brother. He praised, "The Academy is really a great place. I can't believe that someone can make such a good sword."
Second Brother walked to the field and said, "But the sword is used by people after all."
"Your swordsmanship is also very good."
Liu Bai said, "All these years, I have been wondering who is stronger between you and Ye Su. Now it seems that you are stronger. Your sword is stronger, and so is your swordsmanship."
Second Brother said, "But you are the strongest."
Liu Bai's expression did not change. Because he had heard such comments many times, until no one in the world dared to comment on his sword.
When he was young, he comprehended Tao by the big river. Since then, his sword aura had spread across the mountains and rivers. No one had ever dared to question his reputation of being the best in Sword Taoism.
"Sword Taoism is about the sword and swordsmanship. I have always valued the sword."
Liu Bai said, "I trained the sword in the cliff cave of the Sword Garret for more than ten years and finally made a good sword. Then the Headmaster borrowed it. Although it was a pity, it was an honor for the sword to be used by the Headmaster. Other than that sword, I have many other good swords, such as the one on my waist. It is also better than your iron sword. "
"As for swordsmanship, I don't think I have any talent. I did not create the Chi in front of me. This swordsmanship first appeared in the world and it came from Mr. Ke. "
Second Brother said, "But you carried it forward and it deserves the respect of all the swordsmen in the world."
In the cultivation world, especially in the history of Sword Taoism, Liu Bai was an unforgettable name. Because he was the first Great Sword Master who raised close combat to an absolute high position.
In the past, Sword Masters in the cultivation world always paid attention to flying swords and controlling swords. In their view, controlling the Qi of Heaven and Earth was the most strict distinction between cultivators and ordinary people.
It was not until Liu Bai appeared out of nowhere and became invincible with the Chi in front of him that all Sword Masters saw a new possibility on the road of cultivation. This change could even be said to be revolutionary.
Because of this, Second Brother had respect for him.
Liu Bai said, "In the early years, I had been wavering between the two kinds of swordsmanship. It was not until the battle on the East Sea Dyke that I realized this wavering had actually violated the original meaning of swordsmanship."
"At that time, I hurt Yan Se with my sword from a thousand miles away. He wrote a talisman toward the violent tide outside the dyke. He was so far away, but the bald pen fell on my face."
Liu Bai touched his eyebrows and smiled slightly self-mockingly.
"After that battle, I finally chose to hold the sword in my hand. The most fundamental difference between the two kinds of swordsmanship lies in whether a cultivator should use the Qi of Heaven and Earth to control the sword or use the sword to control the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, which are not obvious. But if you think carefully, you will find that the sword should use this kind of method. "
"The Buddhism Sect's copper bowl, prayer beads, cudgel and talisman can't work because these natal elements have no shape, but the sword has shape. The shape of the sword is suitable to control the Qi of Heaven and Earth to hurt people."
"Because the sword is straight and has a sharp edge, so it can't be mediocre. No mediocre at all. You can't waver, whether it's ten thousand miles with the sword or one foot in front of you."
Liu Bai said, "You told Ye Su a lot of principles before, but I don't understand those principles. I only know the principles of swordsmanship. Since the sword is straight, it should pierce and pierce. Only the simplest is the most powerful."
Second Brother said, "Principles are things of the human world. You shouldn't stay in the human world, so you don't need to pay attention to them. But if you want to stay in the human world and use your sword, some principles still need to be followed."
