"Time is like cutting, the past is like castrating; life is a drama, cultivation is a drama!"
The old Zhenren threw another bean into his mouth and chewed it with relish. He enjoyed the atmosphere of educating the younger generation. Of course, the premise was that the younger generation was worthy of teaching. If it were some ordinary blockheads, he wouldn't be interested either.
"It's like a drama on the stage. Some act as hoodlums, and some act as scholars. In the end, there's only one goal, which is to marry the eldest daughter of the minister's family!
In the cultivation world, the eldest daughter is immortal!
Xuanyuan is only pretending to be a hoodlum, he's not a real hoodlum. The difference can't be confused!
Just like the Three Pure Ones are only pretending to be scholars, he's not a real scholar! Think carefully about the things they did, the methods they used. Are they something that a pure scholar can do?
If the Dharma lineage is like this, how should I, Xuanyuan, act as a hoodlum as a Swordsman? You have to have a scale in your heart!
On the stage of cultivation, the Dharma lineage wants us to become real hoodlums! And we expect them to become real scholars! Looking at the direction of history, everyone has a good grasp of the situation!
Hoodlums are fake hoodlums, scholars are fake scholars. This is the essence of the cultivation world. If you don't understand this, you'll be trapped in your so-called sword heart and Dao heart!
What is a heart? Every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost! "
Lou Xiaoyi felt that the longer he knew the Nan Zhenren, the more unfathomable he felt. But it made him feel closer to him. Because some of his complaints about the cultivation world, the Blue Sky Five Rings, and even the Heavenly Dao were not written down in words. They were the essence of his life and cultivation!
"I understand! You have to act like whatever you want! You have to learn to distinguish between what's on the stage and what's off the stage … "
The Nan Zhenren stroked his beard and smiled, "When I was young, there was a bully in town. His notoriety spread far and wide. He often walked through the streets with his arms crossed. There was no shop that didn't pay him respect. When the new government took over and cleaned up the town, countless hoodlums were caught, but he was the only one who was unharmed. It was very strange!
Later on, when they grew up, they met by chance. She asked him how he was able to stay out of trouble when the whole town was being purged. Did he have some kind of backer in the new yamen?
In the end, this person laughed and said, "I'm just a bumpkin who was born and raised here. My family has not had a single official for dozens of generations. How could I have any backing in the yamen?"
The reason why he was safe and sound was actually very simple. The new yamen was investigating all the murders in the town, but none of them were related to him!
This was what it meant to be a good actor!
I'm a Xuanyuan Swordsman, and it's impossible for me not to kill people. If you can achieve a reputation for being ruthless without causing too much karma, then that's a good acting! "
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "People like Uncle-Master are the real veteran actors and role models for our generation!"
Spiritual Master Nan shook his head and sighed, "You're wrong! In my era, at my level, I didn't even have the chance to step onto the stage!
After all, only a small number of people were able to step onto the stage. Most of them were just spectators!
But you're different. You've always been on the stage. You're in the Zhuji phase, Jin Dan, and you'll definitely be there when you become a Nascent Soul!
So, you have to act well! Act so that everyone knows you're a hoodlum! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. "If only I could step off the stage!"
He also knew that this was impossible. Standing on the stage was pressure, but it was also a driving force. It all depended on how you borrowed the force! His path was not the kind of path that people wouldn't know if he was raised in the deep mountains, but would become famous overnight. But then again, how long would it take to be raised in the deep mountains? What was known throughout the world? Was it Jin Dan? Yuanying? Immortal? Or an immortal?
If he really became an immortal, then what was the meaning of his past?
"Let's talk about the Li family's son you brought back! What, do you want to take him into Xuanyuan? "Spiritual Master Nan changed the topic.
Lou Xiaoyi began to shirk responsibility. "It's not easy to kill him in the Thousand Islands Region! Rogue cultivators can see it! It doesn't match Xuanyuan's image of accepting talented swordsmen! Moreover, his crimes are nothing to Xuanyuan, and he also contributed the secret of the sword plate!
I can't deal with him, and I don't know when he'll return to his old ways if he stays in the Thousand Islands Region. So, I can only bring him back and let the sect deal with him. It's up to Martial Uncle whether to slowly win his heart or restrain him for a period of time so that he can completely change his character. I have no objection! "
Spiritual Master Nan snorted. This brat was very cunning to push this matter to him!
With the current strength of Jin Dan in Mount Yi, they really needed this kind of new blood. Talented in swordplay and able to fight on the spot, Mount Yi needed this kind of talent very much. But regarding the cultivation of cultivators, Jin Dan and Zhuji were very different. Zhuji was easy to cultivate. Even if he was born in another province, he could be taught how to become a real Swordsman over a long period of time and have a sense of attachment to the sect.
Jin Dan was different. The process of Core Formation was a process of initial determination of spirit and will. After Core Formation, it was very difficult to change. If another wolf was introduced to Mount Yi, it would be very troublesome.
"What do you think? You've been in contact with him, so you know his past … "
Lou Xiaoyi thought for a while and decided to tell the truth. "This person's character is a bit extreme. If he's used in the wrong place, it's easy to cause trouble!
In the Hidden Territory on the deserted island, he was very generous. Of course, he had no choice but to do so. He was under the control of others and was just looking for a way to survive. He was not really willing to submit to Xuanyuan. It was a process. If it was the Foundation Establishment Stage, it would be even more so for the Golden Core Stage!
What makes me curious is that he's very Dafa about the inheritance of the secret realm. Not only this sword frame, but also those skills about the sword plate that he took before. But he's missing one thing! "
Nan Zhenren nodded. "He's missing the last words of the inheritor!"
Lou Xiaoyi continued, "Although disciples rarely explore the secret realm, after observing the process of exploration, and considering the mentality of the inheritor, it's impossible that he didn't give any instructions to the successor!
For example, to take care of the family? Who are the enemies? Which orthodoxy is the enemy? If you can't satisfy the inheritor's request, why would he give you all the secrets? You have to complete some last words for the inheritor, only then can you live up to this opportunity!
The orthodoxy of the Sword Vein in the Thousand Islands Region basically came from the Cloud Top Sword Palace! Many individual cultivators learned swordsmanship from this inheritance and were still willing to submit to Xuanyuan. It was only because this inheritance had been passed down for countless generations that the past hatred had long faded. Who would be willing to bear the illusory karma of a conflict from ten to twenty thousand years ago?
But the sword plate inheritance in the desert island secret realm hadn't been passed down for many generations! Since the inheritor set up this place ten thousand years ago, Li Jiazi was the first and only inheritor!
Then, what last words did the inheritor leave for him? What did he want to achieve? What plans did he have? This was almost inevitable, but he didn't mention anything about this!
Was this really the noble character and unquestionable integrity of the Cloud Top Swordsman? Only for the sword and nothing else? Is this the style of the Cloud Top? "
