In the early morning, after collecting the essence of the sun, Lou Jinchen fetched water, chopped firewood, and then started practicing his sword.

For Lou Jinchen, practicing swordsmanship now means practicing techniques, and this technique also includes spells and mana.

He was looking for a target for sword practice. He always felt that the sword in his hand needed to be pointed at the target. Otherwise, practicing the sword in the air would always be in vain. Moreover, after confirming the theory of "Sword of the Heart", the sword must be used to draw the target.

Take the target into your mind and use the method of transmitting the sword from your mind.

Suddenly, Lou Jinchen thought of the seventy-two transformation techniques in "Journey to the West" to avoid three disasters and six disasters. Could this transformation technique actually be used to avoid other people's thoughts and transmit the law?

What about the spells formed?

Thinking too much, thinking too much. Lou Jinchen rubbed his face and pulled his thoughts back. He hasn't practiced the sword skill yet, so don't think so much. He secretly warned himself not to think too divergently. He was very worried.

Understand that this is one of your strengths, but it can also be a shortcoming, which can lead to your lack of focus.

He looked up at the sun, and suddenly thought about a character in a certain martial arts novel. His father asked him to practice his sword in the valley facing the mountains, and slash against the mountains every day. His father thought about the mountains putting pressure on him, asking him to

Practice to be able to develop the kind of sword spirit that is not afraid of anything and can break mountains and split the sky.

However, he practiced swordsmanship against the mountain every day, but he felt that the mountain was so tall that he could not split it. This thought became stronger and stronger, but the swordsmanship he finally learned was narrow.

All the positive pressure was because he felt that he could not split the mountain and could only see through the gaps between the mountains.

He suddenly thought that he might as well practice the sword by himself using the sun and the moon.

The sun and moon are in the heart, and swords and swords have directions and goals. The sun and moon are swaying high in the sky, which are entities, but also represent an illusion. Cutting the sun and moon with a sword is like cutting illusions. If even illusions can be cut off,

Then other methods can naturally be broken.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that practicing swordsmanship with the sun and moon is very good.

So from that day on, he started to use his sword towards the sun and moon, using basic sword movements such as slashing, lifting, wiping, and stabbing, and he tried his best every time.

However, the movement of his sword became smaller and smaller, and his vitality no longer surged like before. However, as he walked with the sword, he saw his sword rising into the sky, and slashing towards the sky continuously.

Chasing a sword, it falls back to the ground again and again, and then draws the sword towards the sun or moon.

Shang Gui'an and Deng Ding seemed to be watching Lou Jinchen practicing swordsmanship with frowns. They didn't dare to say that he was wrong. After all, he was so powerful, but they said that he was right, but who would use the sword against Sun and Moon?

Woolen cloth?

Three months have passed.

Shang Gui'an said: "Senior brother, I think you still need to practice with others, otherwise you won't know whether practicing swordsmanship in this way is useful."

Lou Jinchen thought he was right.

But at a glance, in the Huoling Temple were the temple owner and two junior brothers who could not block his sword, so he asked Deng Ding where there were strong men.

Deng Ding was silent for a moment and said: "There is a group of strong men in Black Wind Village. Black Wind Village is also called Black Wind Canyon. It is an opening where the evil energy of the earth's lungs comes out. The environment is harsh, but a group of evil cultivators gather there.

They often go down the mountain together to commit some evil deeds. For example, the year before last, they attacked Qinghefang, a hundred and thirty miles away to the north, which was a place jointly established by several families specifically for cultivators to trade."

"Last year, I heard that some of them were looking for boys and girls born in the lunar year, lunar month, and lunar day in this area, and took their souls to make a set of Yin Soul Swords."

"How can we allow such evil people to remain in this world for such evil deeds?" Lou Jinchen said.

"But, senior brother, many people want to clean them up, but they all come back in vain, and most of them never come back. Senior brother, let's wait until I have a thorough introduction to Qi refining and have mastered the spell.

Go with senior brother," Deng Ding said.

Lou Jinchen looked at Deng Ding, but forgot to ask him what stage he was at now: "What level are you at now?"

"Senior brother is already planting seeds," Deng Ding said.

"That's almost there." Lou Jinchen said casually. The "Zhong Nian" Deng Ding mentioned was his breakdown of the step of refining Qi.

First of all, calm your mind and calm your mind so that people can enter a state of concentration.

Then there is the ambition to make one's own consciousness pure, strong, persevering, and condensed.

The last step is to plant the thought into the place where the essence gathers in the three elixirs under the navel. Finally, the essence is completely refined and turned into Qi.

Lou Jinchen helped him think of two ways to do this, one moving and one still. Movement is to practice swordsmanship, and silence is to let one's consciousness wander inch by inch in the body's meridians. This requires a high degree of concentration.

It is actually very difficult to prevent it from being scattered. The so-called form is dispersed but the mind is not dispersed. Most of the time, the form is not dispersed, but the mind has been dispersed.

Therefore, it is not easy to let the mind travel through the meridians in the body and around the sky. But if he can do it, then he can start to practice mindfulness.

"However, this is my practice, I will just go there." After Lou Jinchen finished speaking, he went to the temple master to report it.

Defeating a stronghold alone with a single sword is a plot found in many novels. It cannot be ruled out that he has such a complex and such a yearning. However, this is indeed his practice. To hone the sword's will is to practice. He believes that

Now I need a battle to verify my swordsmanship.

The visitor didn't say anything. Lou Jinchen took a bag with him, including a change of clothes, two rice balls, and a jug of water. Then he got on his horse, hung up his sword and left.

"Brother, it's getting late, why don't you go out again tomorrow?" Shang Gui'an shouted after him.

"Now that you have your heart set on it, why wait any longer? We often fail to do something because we have too many worries. But now, I have the sword in my hand, the law in my body, and the morality in my heart. Is there any reason not to do it? Weather

Well, the stars and the moon are about to rise, which is a good color."

After Lou Jinchen finished speaking, he rode away.

Shang Gui'an watched Lou Jinchen's figure disappear into the corner of the mountain with the sound of the road, and couldn't help but think to himself: "Senior brother, you are so free and easy, when will I be able to live like him?"

Deng Ding also stood nearby, watching this scene and said: "Senior brother is a true swordsman." His eyes were also full of yearning.

Lou Jinchen rode his horse and headed south. The direction of Heifeng Village was more than a hundred miles away, and Deng Ding could only point in one direction. He decided to ask along the way because it was not in a hurry.

Meditation should be combined with active practice.

Swimming City is one of the more important cities in this area, because there are boats going down the river from here and merging into a big river, so some nearby merchants will bring their goods to Swimming City, and they are usually distributed in Swimming City.

After being sold, part of it is put into the boat and sent down the river.

Therefore, the business roads here are quite wide. As Lou Jinchen walked to the south, he met some businessmen on the road, most of them were in groups. When he saw Lou Jinchen, he also looked at Lou Jinchen and did not provoke him.

It wasn't until the sky got dark that Lou Jinchen found himself in a desolate area, with no village in front and no store behind.

I looked at the stars and moon in the sky, found a place with leeward, picked up a pile of dry firewood from the ground, then reached out to grab a handful of dry leaves, focused my thoughts on the law between my paws, and visualized the sun in my hand, the leaves

It began to smoke, and soon it started to burn. It was placed under the firewood, and soon a fire was burning.

He listened carefully and suddenly ran into the forest. When he came out, he had caught a snake. He peeled off the snake's skin smoothly and roasted the snake meat on the fire.

A person, a horse, and a sword, find a hillside, light a fire, grill a bunch of snake meat on the fire, lie down by the fire, blinking at the stars in the sky, and listen

The insects in the grass are singing. This kind of comfort is what Lou Jinchen has always longed for.

The life you long for.

It's just that all dangers are always hidden beneath comfort and happiness.

The visitor once said that evil and strange things are like weeds in the gutter. Once they are cleaned up, they will appear again after a while. In this wilderness and countryside, Lou Jinchen heard the mournful music.

.

In the forest, a funeral procession is approaching. They are all dressed in white, looming in the forest. Their figures are erratic, as if they were blown by the night wind, but they are always able to move forward against the wind. Although they are walking

It's not a straight line, but a zigzag. This kind of weirdness, but Lou Jinchen saw the elegance of walking in the wind.

The moonlight appeared in Lou Jinchen's eyes, and he saw clearly that those were not people, but paper figures one by one. Their eyes and mouths were bright red, and they had just been drawn with blood dots.

They came to Lou Jinchen's side and stood there in a row, watching motionlessly, looking strange and sinister.

Lou Jinchen had naturally stood up a long time ago, holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, leaning on the sword on the ground, looking at the sedan carried by the paper figures. In the sedan, a black paper figure could be faintly seen sitting there, but this paper figure looked like

Wearing a gorgeous black suit, he no longer looked dull, but looked like a scholar.

Neither of them spoke. Lou Jinchen felt the evil in the row of paper figures. If they all attacked him together, would he be able to stop them? In this world, at least he could not determine the level of cultivation of others.

, but it can be judged by the external aura feeling. Of course, this feeling is extremely inaccurate. If you encounter someone else's hidden aura, you will not feel anything.

Suddenly there was a burnt smell in his nose. Lou Jinchen took a look and was sure that his snake meat was a little burnt. He immediately said: "You are standing here, fighting but not fighting, walking but not walking, but why?

?”

As soon as he said this, the paper people were silent for a moment, and then actually started to move, drifting into the distance against the wind, and drifted away strangely in the light of the stars and the moon, carrying a piece of sadness and joy.

After that, there was nothing to disturb him anymore, and he started practicing his sword under the light of stars and moon on the hillside.

The gleaming light on the tip of the sword drew a series of twists and turns in the dark night. The spiritual light surged around his body. In addition to the hand wielding the sword, his other hand also moved along with it.

A storm formed around him.

A lot of force in sword practice requires kink of the body to form the force points of various sword styles. He just extended it outside the body. He knew that he needed to practice it in the void of heaven and earth to become as agile and quick as a swimming fish.

His body skills, but this process is actually more difficult than his sword skills, even though he now has the control method of cutting through the air with his sword and moving with the sword.

His ability to attack has greatly increased, and he can stir up troubles with his sword, but he is not very satisfied with it, so he needs to continue to practice and feel the power of yin and yang in the void.

Originally, he wanted to understand some kind of escape method, but he has never been able to understand it. He thought that there might be something crucial, but he couldn't figure it out, so he came up with it. One of the big reasons was to see the magic of identifying people.

Those paper figures were fluttering against the wind just now, which made him feel fresh.

After practicing the sword for a while, he started practicing. To him, these were like seeing other people's different swimming styles in swimming. Once he saw them, he could naturally learn and practice them.

He stood in the void and felt the wind in the void, but soon he understood that his body would be the one to cause the wind if he walked in the sky, unless his physical body changed.

He thought that if a plane wants to fly fast, it needs an extremely powerful driving force. In his imagination, as in those fairy tales, a person who follows a hundred and eighty thousand miles and turns into a golden light must need something special.

This can only be achieved by practicing secret techniques.
