"Let's go see what's going on first!"
Releasing a streak of light with a wave of his hand, Li Yu rose up on his sword, flying towards the main hall of the Green Mountain sect, the Green Mountain hall.
The Green Mountain sect was an orthodox Daoist sect. They all practised the orthodox Daoist path of Jin Dan. They used the Daoist path as their body and techniques as their tools. The art of controlling swords was also an orthodox legacy in the Green Mountain sect.
The flying sword shot through the air, and a while later, Li Yu landed in front of an ancient, towering hall.
This was the Green Mountain hall.
The Green Mountain hall sat between a verdant, towering pine tree. The rustling of the pine trees made the ancient hall seem less dignified, but it gave off a tranquil, otherworldly feeling.
"Hmm? It's actually not a joint trial of the three halls? "
Li Yu walked into the Green Mountain hall, but he discovered that the only person there was the sect master, Li Qingshan.
"You've come!"
Seeing Li Yu walk in, Li Qingshan nodded. He pointed at a cushion in front of him and gestured towards Li Yu. "Sit!"
"I wonder …"
Sitting down on the cushion, Li Yu raised his head and looked at Li Qingshan. He was about to ask, but Li Qingshan waved his hand and interrupted him.
"How did you practise the Green Pine sword intent?"
Li Qingshan's face was cold. His eyes were like lightning as he stared at Li Yu closely.
"Hmm?"
Li Yu was taken aback. Only then did he remember that he had actually used the Green Pine sword intent when he casually swung his sword in response to Chi Ying's sneak attack.
The Ten Swords of Green Mountain all had their mysteries. However, the Green Pine sword intent was a sword style of tenacity and uprightness.
It was nothing for Li Yu to casually use this sword intent. However … Li Yu, the second generation of immortals, was arrogant, domineering, and unruly. What part of him had tenacity and uprightness to do with someone like that?
"What the hell, I actually accidentally exposed a flaw like that?"
Li Yu shook his head inside. However, he had to fix it now that something had gone wrong.
"You won't let go of the green mountain, rooted in the broken rock. You'll remain firm even after thousands of blows, no matter where you go. "
It was hard to say whether he was firm and upright, but … wasn't it the specialty of the second generation of immortals?
He couldn't find a suitable excuse at the moment, so he could only use this to make up the numbers.
"Stubbornly refusing to let go of the green mountain?"
When Li Qingshan heard Li Yu's poem, the corner of his lips twitched violently.
He didn't see any perseverance in the poem, nor did he see any indomitable spirit.
Thinking about Li Yu's infatuation with Chi Ying, she recalled how he had held the sword in his hand and said affectionately, "There was once a true love …"
As a result, what Li Qingshan saw in the poem was Li Yu being infatuated with Chi Ying. He clung to her relentlessly, "stubbornly refusing to let go of the green hills." Then, he even said, "Even after thousands of setbacks, he still remains firm, no matter what the wind blows from the east, west, and north."
"Green Pine Sword Intent … can actually be cultivated like this?"
Even Li Qingshan's hands trembled.
Being infatuated with a beautiful woman, resolutely using force, not hesitating to take risks, not hesitating to break the rules of the sect, was this also called perseverance? Pestering and not giving up even after being stabbed by a sword, could this be considered as indomitable?
How could he master the Pine Sword Intent like this? Even the ancestral master's coffin would collapse, right?
"Huff … huff …"
Only after exhaling deeply a few times did Li Qingshan settle down. His gaze towards Li Yu was rather … helpless and speechless.
"You …"
Li Qingshan looked at Li Yu and opened his mouth. Suddenly, he had no idea what to say.
The sword intent was the Soul Transformation intent. With the Pine Sword Intent, Li Yu's path to Soul Transformation was already very clear. As long as he mastered the sword intent and attached his soul, he would be able to reach the virtual realm and ascend to immortality.
As the sect leader, his son's cultivation had improved greatly, and he had a successor. This was a good thing. This was something that Li Qingshan could be proud of, something that he could be gratified by.
The problem is … why is your method of breaking through so awkward?
"As qi practitioners and cultivators, we should purge our hearts of desires and abstain from doing anything. Only then can we achieve the great path. Even if we do become partners, we'll support each other on the path of cultivation. We can't become engrossed in love. "
After a moment of thought, Li Qingshan finally organised his words. He used the principles of the great path of cultivation to persuade his son who had broken through in an extremely strange manner.
"There are three thousand great paths, but there is no difference between them."
Hearing that, Li Yu became accustomed to being an old man, so his bad habit of "being a good teacher" emerged again. He began to refute Li Qingshan's one-sided understanding of the great path.
"The four elements of buddhism are all emptiness. Nirvana and nirvana can prove the great path. Daoism can also prove the great path with purity and inaction. The virtue of the Human Emperor can prove the great path. The Demon Ancestor can also prove the great path with the destruction of all life. Why … can't love prove the great path? You have to understand that the union of yin and yang is the natural order of things … "
"Preposterous logic! A bunch of nonsense! "
As soon as he opened his mouth to lecture him, Li Yu's "preposterous logic" rendered him speechless. All Li Qingshan could do was "prove the great path with strength" and directly suppress him.
"Why is it preposterous logic? If emotionlessness is the great path, why isn't affection also the great path? Haven't you heard that 'those who reach the apex of affection reach the apex of the sword'? "
Li Yu, who had sunk into an "academic dispute", had already entered a state of mind.
"The Ten Swords of Green Mountain all have their own mysteries and differences. Do you only see tenacity and uprightness in the Green Pine Sword Style, but you can't see the endless entanglement? "
With a wave of his hand, the sword in his hand flew out of its sheath. The sword whistled through the air, and a tall, upright pine tree appeared in the light.
"This is tenacity and uprightness! However, how can a tree be without roots? "
With a turn of the sword light, the upright pine tree turned into tangled roots.
"Y- you …"
A firm and upright pine tree. You don't look at its straight and upright stature. You only look at its entangled roots. Li Qingshan's head suddenly ached.
"The East Li Sword Style is the same."
He extended his hand and beckoned. The verdant, green sword light suddenly shuddered, suddenly turning into a blooming golden chrysanthemum.
Cold and cold, graceful and unconventional, the only one sober when everyone else is drunk!
The East Li Sword Style was the sword of a hermit.
"You only see the drifting, otherworldly nature, the intent of a hermit. Why can't you see its wildness and tyranny? "
The sword light shuddered, and a long cry drifted out.
"When autumn arrives, on the eighth of the ninth month, I'll kill a hundred flowers after they bloom!"
The sword whistled through the air. The drifting, otherworldly sword of a hermit suddenly became a sword of endless killing that was extremely wild and tyrannical.
"Sword of Winter Plum Blossom. You only see its arrogant frost and battle snow, its supreme aloofness, but you can't see its arrogance?"
The plum blossoms bloomed, and the supreme aloofness suddenly became arrogant.
"This is the Serene Orchid Sword Style. You understand its tranquility and elegance, but … do you know about self-admiration?"
The sword qi was like orchids, and the tranquility and elegance of the sword intent became self-admiration and arrogance.
"You only see the modest, gentlemanly nature of the Verdant Bamboo Sword Style. You only see the upright, upright, but you can't see its vanity?"
"The Green Lotus Sword Style …"
With that, Li Yu, who had entered a state of "academic discussion", demonstrated the sword intent of the Ten Swords of Green Mountain consecutively before Li Qingshan.
He demonstrated the sword intent of the Ten Swords of Green Mountain consecutively before Li Qingshan, stunning him.
"W- w- since when did you practise so many sword intents?"
At that moment, Li Qingshan thought of Li Yu's arrogance and tyranny from before. He thought of Li Yu's selflessness, and he thought of Li Yu's lawlessness.
So … that's where all the sword intents came from?
Comprehending sword intent is a good thing, a great thing. The problem is, why is the method you use to comprehend sword intent so strange?
Should I laugh? Or should I cry?
Li Qingshan was at a loss. He did not even know when Li Yu had left.
