At the rear cliff of the Qingyun Dao Sect.
Su Changyu had already gotten into position.
He was standing on a boulder, wearing the long robe that he wore yesterday and looking like an immortal. He held a sword in his right hand and placed it behind his back. As the breeze blew, his long hair fluttered and he looked like a Sword Immortal.
He was deep in thought.
He wasn't thinking about the Sword Dao, but he was thinking about how to trick his Junior Brother later.
Su Changyu understood that although he was trying to deceive Ye Ping, he definitely couldn't.
He had to have a basis, but he had to exaggerate and exaggerate.
In other words, he had to brag logically and not fabricate nonsense.
It was a little difficult, but Su Changyu felt that he could do it.
While Su Changyu was thinking about it …
All of a sudden, a voice sounded, jolting Su Changyu back to his senses.
"I'm Ye Ping. Greetings, Eldest Senior Brother."
Hearing Ye Ping's voice, Su Changyu snapped out of his contemplation.
His face was calm and emotionless.
"Yes, have you had breakfast yet?"
Su Changyu asked calmly without looking at Ye Ping. It was not that he was looking down on Ye Ping, but rather, he was acting arrogant.
"Eldest Senior Brother, not yet."
Hearing this, Ye Ping finally remembered that he hadn't had breakfast yet.
"It's good that you haven't eaten yet. We cultivators cultivate Qi and eat less grains is good for our health."
Su Changyu said.
Ye Ping nodded. He understood that the grains were full of toxins and would leave impurities in his body after eating them. That would be a certain obstacle to cultivation.
However, at this moment …
Su Changyu's voice sounded again.
"Little Junior Brother, Master asked me to teach you the Sword Dao, but I can't impart it to just anyone. If you don't have talent in the Sword Dao, you won't be able to comprehend it even if I teach it to you. So, I'll ask you a question. If you can answer it, I'll teach you the Sword Dao. How about that?"
Su Changyu seemed rather profound and unfathomable.
He did not intend to teach Ye Ping the Sword Dao directly, and instead, he asked a question first to liven up the atmosphere.
If he casually taught Ye Ping the Sword Dao, wouldn't he seem cheap?
However, despite the atmosphere, Su Changyu still looked at Ye Ping from the corner of his eye. If Ye Ping showed any displeasure, he would immediately say, "But I think you have some talent in the Sword Dao, so I'll forget about it."
It mainly depended on whether Ye Ping would take the bait.
On the other hand, Ye Ping.
After hearing these words, not only did he not reveal the slightest bit of displeasure, on the contrary, he nodded seriously.
"Junior Brother understands. The Dao of the Sword might seem simple, but it contains a great Dao. Senior Brother, please tell me. If I really don't have the talent, I wouldn't dare to trouble you."
Ye Ping was a little excited.
He had seen this plot before.
Usually, when a peerless expert imparted a certain secret art, he would not directly impart it, but would ask a question instead.
Moreover, these questions seemed very simple, but they were questions that contained a profound meaning.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping couldn't help but look a little nervous again.
What if he couldn't answer the question?
After hearing Ye Ping's words, Su Changyu couldn't help but be shocked.
Aiya, you're so smart?
He could even bring up the Great Dao?
Not bad, young man. You have a bright future. Good, very good, very good.
Since you're so understanding, then don't blame your Senior Brother.
Su Changyu was in a good mood, but he still looked aloof and aloof on the surface. He retracted his gaze and stared at the mountains and rivers before speaking slowly.
"Junior Brother, do you know what Sword Principle is?"
A voice rang out.
Ye Ping couldn't help but fall silent.
He had guessed it right.
Indeed, it was a seemingly simple question that contained a supreme intent.
Ye Ping took a deep breath.
He was deep in thought.
'What is the Sword Principle? '
If it was a normal person, he would probably answer that killing the enemy was the Sword Principle and being a gentleman was the Sword Principle.
However, this question was obviously not a superficial one.
He had to bring his own intent into it.
'What is the Sword Principle? '
Ye Ping pondered for a long time. After two hours, Su Changyu, who was standing on the boulder, felt a little uncomfortable.
'Brother, you've already been standing for two hours, can't you just answer casually? '
'I'm so tired from standing and my hands are sore. Can you hurry up and answer? '
'I'm begging you! '
Su Changyu regretted pretending to be impressive.
Ye Ping did not answer and he did not dare to change his posture. Hence, he had no choice but to face Ye Ping with his right hand behind his back. Although he was a cultivator, he couldn't stand standing for two hours.
Finally, after an hour and a half, Ye Ping answered.
However, Ye Ping's voice was rather soft.
It was a tentative answer.
He did not dare to answer indiscriminately and could only rack his brains to pick out a few sentences from novels that he had read before.
"Eldest Senior Brother, the heart is the Sword Dao?"
After saying that, Ye Ping was a little scared.
After all, it was his first time cultivating immortality and practicing the Sword Dao. The other party was a peerless Sword Dao expert. If his answer was unsatisfactory, he would have missed the opportunity.
However, after hearing this answer, Su Changyu couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
'Hey! '
'This answer is a little interesting. '
'It's better than what I answered back then. '
'This is something. '
However, although his answer was not bad, Su Changyu turned around and quietly changed his posture. He then shook his head and said with an arrogant expression.
"Wrong."
'Yes, it's wrong. '
He didn't care what Ye Ping answered at all. No matter how Ye Ping answered, his answer would be wrong.
'If I agree to it directly, wouldn't it seem rash? '
"Then, heaven and earth are the Sword Dao?"
Ye Ping asked again in a probing manner.
"Wrong too."
Su Changyu continued.
"The sun and moon are the Sword Dao?"
"Wrong again."
"Everything is the Sword Dao?"
Ye Ping asked tentatively again.
He really didn't know how to answer that question.
"Ah."
Su Changyu shook his head and looked at Ye Ping with a trace of helplessness.
"Indeed, your talent in the Sword Dao isn't too good. Senior Brother, let's change the question."
Su Changyu said.
Ye Ping was a little shocked.
Although he was already prepared, he didn't expect that his aptitude was really bad. However, since Su Changyu was willing to give him another chance, Ye Ping didn't feel discouraged.
"Ye Ping, let me ask you, how strong do you think the extreme of the Sword Dao is?"
Su Changyu asked solemnly.
'How strong is the extreme of the Sword Dao? '
Ye Ping frowned slightly.
He had never seen anyone display swordsmanship before.
That answer touched the blind spot of his knowledge.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that although he had never seen others practice swordsmanship, he had read plenty of novels.
At the thought of this, Ye Ping began to think again.
This time, it didn't take long for Ye Ping to come up with an answer.
"Senior Brother, I think the extreme of the Sword Dao should be cutting through the sun, moon, and stars with a blade of grass."
Ye Ping's voice wasn't loud, mainly because he wasn't confident enough.
However, as soon as he said that …
Su Changyu froze on the spot.
Fortunately, he was still aloof and indifferent on the surface, so there wasn't much change in his expression.
However, in reality, Su Changyu's heart was already in turmoil.
