Lou Xiaoyi immersed his mind into Xuanyuan's scabbard. It was time to systematically familiarize himself with the essence of Xuanyuan's swordsmanship.
His current swordsmanship was similar to the Crow Ancestor's Great Dao of simplicity. However, the Crow Ancestor's Great Dao of simplicity was the simplest after reaching the deepest level of complexity. It was a kind of enlightenment after seeing the mountains and rivers. It was a natural process. On the other hand, his Great Dao of simplicity was originally simple! He did not see much of the mountains and rivers before he started to draw out the essence. This was an incomplete Great Dao of simplicity. It was flawed!
From complexity to simplicity, the most important thing was the process! Complexity was a must. It was a necessary step, not something that could be simplified. This was the reason why his swordsmanship was not good enough in front of the Crow Ancestor. Due to his talent, he could always discover the truth in the shortest amount of time. However, he had lost the process of summarizing the complexity and saving the essence.
In fact, this process could not be omitted. It was related to a cultivator's vision! When facing opponents, especially opponents from different orthodoxies, it was necessary to be a little complicated! Not everyone was like the Crow Ancestor. They advocated simple and sharp attacks that penetrated the essence!
This was what he needed to make up for now!
Nine Bends Stream Spectrum, Sword of Fallen Stars, Perception Illumination, Reverse Light of Dust, Reincarnation God Slaying Technique, Dayan Sword Rule, Yin Yang Annihilation Technique, Lawless, Three Lives, Three Cleaves, River Sword Tome, Minor Heavenly Sword Formation, Inch of Time, World's End Near Hand Sword, Body Sword Technique, Inverse Dragon, Chaotic Heavenly Heart Sword, Sword of the Five Elements, Sword of Power, Reversal of the Universe, River of Sunset, Kui Dou, Greater Teleportation, Lesser Teleportation, Nascent Piercing Body, Cosmic Wind, Three Provinces, Sword Aura Yellow Sprout, Eternal Night Sword Incantation, Great Sword Circle, Small Sword Circle, Immortal Sword …
These should be Xuanyuan's swordsmanship that stopped before the Crow Ancestor. There was also a portion that came after. They were the top swordsmanship that the Crow Ancestor collected from various places. Among them, there was a special mention of a place, Western Bright Sword Mansion.
It was the cornerstone of the Crow Ancestor's Dao Sword Lineage.
However, Lou Xiaoyi discovered that the Heavenly Phenomenon Sword Technique wasn't among them. Most likely, one wouldn't be able to comprehend it unless one was a Half Immortal. Or perhaps, a place like the scabbard couldn't contain such a sword technique.
This was a sea of swordsmanship. Even with Lou Xiaoyi's insight, he could not help but sigh at the seniors' ingenuity in swordsmanship. At his level, with his talent in swordsmanship, he did not need to study the details of every move. The main thing was the essence of the Tao state, the expansion of understanding, the exchange of ideas, and the fusion of inspiration and accumulation.
This was the foundation of a great inheritance. It was the cornerstone of Xuanyuan's Sword Sect. He should have come in to observe and learn these things when he was forming his Nascent Soul and becoming a Monarch. However, because he was far away, he only came in contact with them now. It should be said that as a senior Yang Spirit, Guan Du's insight was impeccable. He saw through Xuanyuan's swordsmanship at a glance. That was why he gave Xuanyuan the scabbard.
Lou Xiaoyi threw himself into the sea of swordsmanship. For him, this was a rare free time. Previously, there were many battles. In the future, when he entered Zhou Xian, he might not be idle. This kind of opportunity was rare for him.
Therefore, he really didn't mean to make things difficult for Qing Xuan. In his opinion, there was no use in thinking so much. There would be a way when the car reaches the mountain. When the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally cross the bridge. What could the three of them, including Little Meow, discuss?
There was an old saying that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. This saying was wrong! The real situation was that three cobblers added together was still one cobbler!
Vaguely feeling that a few years had passed, Lou Xiaoyi, who was immersed in swordsmanship, suddenly felt something in his heart. He felt that some kind of mystery was about to land in the depths of his soul, but it couldn't because an independent consciousness was resisting, not accepting the sudden and unfamiliar arrival of such a thing.
That was a kind of belief, sacrifice!
It was indeed sacrifice! This was also the most convenient belief for Tian Mou to control his subordinates. It could satisfy the noble sense of responsibility of cultivators for the whole universe and mankind. Wen Zhi once said that this was the first influence of Tian Mou on the cultivators below. If they couldn't even make a sacrifice, then they didn't agree with Tian Mou's belief. Naturally, they couldn't talk about joining Tian Mou!
The belief of sacrifice was coming in, but the independent belief was pushing it out! Lou Xiaoyi was very clear that Lord Gao Yuejun didn't lie to him. If he refused, the belief of sacrifice would definitely not come in!
But if he didn't have this belief, would Tian Mou accept him? He had already troubled the Innate Spiritual Treasure twice and owed it two big favors. This wasn't his style!
He also knew that even if he really refused, the tree would still send them back to Zhou Xian. It wouldn't just leave them halfway. But what about the future? There was no future!
There was only one way, which was to change and assimilate this belief of sacrifice! Just like what Crow Ancestor did, he changed the belief of sacrifice into something that belonged to him. Crow Ancestor changed the belief of sacrifice into greed. Then what about him?
He wasn't too sure! He could only try! Fortunately, the independent belief was the highest level of belief. He had the ability to reject or accept in the end. It was an active change, not a passive one.
Under such a dilemma, he began to change his belief with difficulty! He tried many methods, such as arousing other hidden beliefs in the depths of his soul, or finding another belief that was more suitable for him!
In such efforts, he persisted for a year, but he still couldn't find any satisfactory belief that could maintain his independence and make Tian Mou accept!
He finally understood that faith was not something that could be born out of thin air just by imagining it. It came from the accumulation of a cultivator in the long process of cultivation. It was there, and you couldn't get rid of it even if you wanted to! No, no, no, no matter how much you think or change it, it was useless!
He didn't have the conditions to establish a new belief at all! It was determined by his state of mind, experience, outlook on the universe, outlook on life, outlook on cultivation, and many other factors! It needed to be settled, to be refined, and to be formed in adversity!
He was still hesitating, but the consciousness of Tian Mou was obviously very dissatisfied with his hesitation. Suddenly, the power of the belief of sacrifice increased greatly, and it was about to force its way in!
In an instant, Lou Xiaoyi made the most instinctive reaction — resistance!
No matter what happened, his principles would never change! Even if he offended the Spiritual Treasure System, he would firmly defend his independent belief!
Even death couldn't stop him from persevering!
His persistence made his independent belief and Tian Mou's belief of sacrifice fiercely collide and intertwine!
In the end, he didn't drive away the belief of sacrifice that suddenly increased, but he didn't lose his independent belief either! Instead, he reached a wonderful balance!
He could feel that the belief of sacrifice no longer increased his strength. It seemed that Tian Mou had tacitly accepted his current belief state! It accepted him as a member of Tian Mou!
Looking back at his belief, it was still an independent belief, but it had become …
Willing to sacrifice for independence?
