Duan Tiansong's voice had become calm and peaceful. He no longer had the viciousness and craziness from before.
"Your sword intent is really strange. It makes me feel lonely and lonely …" Duan Tiansong looked at Gu Duxing with a smile. "Especially after the sword, I felt even more sad and lonely."
He sighed sincerely. "Good swordsmanship! Legend Tribulation certainly lives up to its name. Brother Tribulation is invincible. I've finally experienced it myself today. "
He was full of praise. Not only was he not angry, he was instead filled with some kind of relief.
Gu Duxing was silent for a moment. Then, he said, "You didn't use your full strength, especially in the last fight."
Duan Tiansong shook his head. "It's not that I didn't want to, but I really couldn't. Although the demonic aura can increase the power of martial techniques, I've had too little contact with it after all. I haven't completely integrated it into my 10,000 years of habits … So, I definitely didn't show mercy just now. In fact, even if I wanted to, I couldn't do it. "
He laughed bitterly. "Because at that time … I still couldn't control myself!"
"Then why are you now?" Gu Duxing asked with some surprise. He was surprised at the enemy's change. Why did it seem like he was completely demonic?
"Because I'm already dead." Duan Tiansong smiled calmly. "Nothing matters in life except death! I, Duan Tiansong, finally understand the true meaning of this sentence today … Once you've seen through life and death, what's there to be afraid of? So now, he can't control me anymore. I'm finally me again. I'm no longer a demonic puppet. "
He looked at the battle between Dong Wushang and Zu Hehe in a daze. He laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "In the past, I always said that death isn't scary. But for those who are truly alive, there's no one who can see through the word 'death'. Since ancient times, the only difficult thing is death. It turns out that death is ultimately so difficult. "
He looked at Gu Duxing calmly and said, "Gu Duxing, your swordsmanship has already reached a higher level and is about to reach the peak … You've already gone further than me. Before I die, I have nothing to tell you because you've already surpassed me … However, I still want to tell you something. It was a sentence about martial arts. It's also the only realization I have after death. "Gu Duxing said seriously," Please enlighten me. "
After a moment of silence, Duan Tiansong finally said word by word, "Life, and Death!"
"The Mortal Battlefield … is the best place for you to go. After seeing through 'death', one's swordsmanship should be able to achieve Small Accomplishment. Then, if one were to see through 'life', one would be able to achieve Great Accomplishment … Everyone could talk about this principle, but it was difficult to achieve it. I've never been able to see through it. Even now, I still haven't been able to see through 'death'. Even in death, I still haven't been able to see through it … because death is, after all, an external force, and not one's own state of mind. "
"Remember, life and death. It was a kind of realm. It's not just about living or dying! "Duan Tiansong said softly.
Gu Duxing murmured in a low voice, "Life and death are a kind of realm. It's not as simple as living or dying." After pondering for a long time, he said, "I'll remember it. I don't really understand it yet, but I'm going to try and explore. Thank you for your advice! "
"You're welcome." Duan Tiansong let out a long sigh. "In the future, when you see people like us, I will ask you for one thing on their behalf."
Gu Duxing said respectfully, "Please speak."
"As fast as you can. Kill them! " Duan Tiansong smiled warmly. "The faster you die, the more likely you will be able to preserve your reputation … You know what I mean."
Gu Duxing nodded slowly. "I'll remember it. If it's possible, I'll do my best. "
Duan Tiansong nodded and smiled. He stood in the air with his hands behind his back, watching the battle between Dong Wushang and Zu Hehe. He said dispassionately, "I'll wait for my brother. With a companion in the netherworld, I won't be alone."
"We brothers have walked together for ten thousand years, never abandoning each other in life and death. But at the last moment, we almost broke that spirit of brotherhood. This is what I should thank you for the most. That sword of yours gave me this last moment of clarity. "
On the other side, Dong Wushang had obviously gained an overwhelming advantage. He forced Zu Hehe to clash head-on with his saber strike after strike. With every strike, both of them would spit out blood at the same time.
It was an extremely barbaric fight. It was a head-on collision. There were no tricks or tricks involved in the fight.
At this moment, both of them were clearly enraged. Their eyes were red, and there was no need for dodging at all. They could only clash head-on! The empty space was shattered piece by piece. The next moment, it was reassembled, and the next moment, it was shattered again. The cycle was endless.
The place where the two of them fought was already thousands of feet high in the air. Below the place where they fought, the whole place was shaking.
The two of them shook violently, causing their bodies to sway.
"After such a battle, Zu Hehe's side has recovered a little bit of his sanity." Duan Tiansong was relieved. "Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen such a suicidal way of fighting. If he really fought in a clear-headed state, your companion's strength is too great. He was born a hero, so he neglected techniques. So even if he could win in the end, he would still have to pay a considerable price. His fighting style is too simple, so simple that it's regrettable … "
Gu Duxing nodded seriously. "I'll pass on your words to Dong Wushang seriously."
Duan Tiansong nodded with a smile.
Finally, Dong Wushang let out a fierce roar. Holding the saber with both his hands, which had already split open, he slashed at Zu Hehe, dripping with blood!
What a powerful and domineering slash!
That was a slash, and also a slash that cut through everything!
Poof!
Zu Hehe's demonic saber could no longer bear it and shattered in an instant.
The demonic saber, which was already riddled with holes and fragmented from the continuous collisions, finally couldn't bear the strongest and fiercest impact. Before the final collision even hit, it had already shattered completely.
Dong Wushang's dark saber was like lightning and thunder, slashing wildly at Zu Hehe.
Zu Hehe's twisted face suddenly revealed a peaceful smile. He actually stood with his hands clasped behind his back, facing Dong Wushang's saber without dodging. His face was calm.
"Stop!" Duan Tiansong shouted.
"Stop!" Gu Duxing shouted to stop him.
Dong Wushang was shocked when he heard that. He pulled back his saber with all his strength. However, the saber energy that had left the saber couldn't be stopped. The biting cold saber energy had already passed through Zu Hehe's body.
Zu Hehe's expression gradually calmed down. He maintained his unmoving figure. He could clearly feel the sharp saber energy cutting through his heart meridians. The expression on his face finally changed again.
The originally calm expression became more and more relaxed. There was even a kind of carefree feeling of 'waking up from a nightmare and finally being free'. Zu Hehe, who had finally broken free from the demonic shackles and was about to die, no longer looked at Dong Wushang. Instead, he turned around and floated toward Duan Tiansong, who was in the air.
The people below were all surprised and puzzled.
What was the result of this battle?!
It looked like Tribulation's side had won a complete victory. But why did the victors, Dong Wushang and Gu Duxing, look a little sad, while the two losers, Duan Tiansong and Zu Hehe, look a little happy? They were no longer as violent and ferocious as they were at the beginning!
The winner didn't win, and the loser didn't lose. What happened between the Ghost Sword and the Devil Sword and the Tribulation Sword Supreme?
In a flash, Zu Hehe had already arrived in front of Duan Tiansong. The two of them looked at each other deeply and smiled at the same time.
"Fortunately, although we were plotted against, we didn't make a big mistake. This is God's favor to us."
"Yes."
"You're still you, and I'm still me."
"Yes, this is indeed our fortune."
The two of them spoke very softly. The words that came from one's mouth entered the other's ears. The rest was blown away by the high altitude hurricane.
In the surging wind, the clothes and hair of the two of them fluttered in the wind. The smiles on their faces were warm and sincere, as if they were red.
Duan Tiansong's calm and relaxed face gradually turned pale. A touch of pain finally appeared on his face. It was the same for Zu Hehe on the opposite side.
This was the price to pay for breaking free from the demonic shackles. Only with the price of life could one break free from the demonic shackles. Even if the two of them had extremely high cultivation and could temporarily hold on to their last breath of vital energy and not die, they couldn't hold on for too long. Death was finally coming!
Dong Wushang and Gu Duxing's hearts trembled.
To be able to make the second-grade Supreme Martial Artists, who had seen through life and death, feel such pain … What could it be?
The expressions on their faces became more and more painful, but the joy in their eyes became more and more.
"Hahaha …" Zu Hehe suddenly trembled all over and laughed to the sky. He said loudly, "I, Zu Hehe, have killed countless people in my life. People call me the 'Devil Sword'! I've killed good people and bad people. There were also many times when I killed the wrong person. But in this life of mine, I believe that I'm worthy of the title of 'Enforcer'! "
"I, Zu Hehe, am known as the 'Sword Bearer' of the Enforcers. I'm recognized as the executioner, and my hands are stained with blood! But still, I've been cursed countless times in my life. But, my reputation is even better. I'm indomitable and worthy of the title of a man! "
"Today, before I go, I almost lost my integrity. The demonic aura is still raging in my heart, but I'm already a dead man. Even if the demonic aura isn't extinguished, what can it do to me?"
Zu Hehe laughed loudly.
The corner of Duan Tiansong's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He just smiled and nodded repeatedly. Bright streaks of blood had already broken out of the corner of his mouth.
The two of them stood side by side. Suddenly, they tried their best to straighten their bodies.
It seemed that even this straightening of their bodies required a lot of effort. A thin trace of blood appeared on Duan Tiansong's throat. Faint traces of blood also appeared on his waist.
And where Zu Hehe's heart was, blood began to surge.
But the two of them didn't seem to notice this at all. They straightened their bodies and bowed deeply to Gu Duxing and Dong Wushang. "Thank you! My illustrious name has finally not fallen. It's all thanks to the help of the two of you! "
Dong Wushang and Gu Duxing only felt heartfelt sadness in their hearts.
Duan Tiansong had already turned around. Enduring the pain, he said to Zu Hehe, "Brother, even if you and I die, our spirits may not be at peace. Our spirits seem to still be useful to those demons, right?"
Zu Hehe suddenly realized something. He said to Dong Wushang and Gu Duxing, "Yes, I almost forgot about this. Don't forget, you must destroy our spirits!"
