Chapter 35 Searching for the Sword
"Empty?" Dongfang Bai looked around: "Then this is too empty, right?"
"There is no way to do this." Jiang Taizhou smiled and let go of the hand that was holding Dongfang Bai.
"No, no, no..." Dongfang Bai immediately hugged Jiang Taizhou's arm: "Don't let go, I'm afraid."
"You shouldn't be afraid, you are a cultivator in the third realm." Jiang Taizhou looked at Dongfang Bai: "Your cultivation is enough to make you stand on your own."
"Why am I in the third realm?" Dongfang Bai hugged Jiang Taizhou's arm and refused to let go.
Jiang Taizhou sighed: "Don't you think of yourself as a mortal, okay?"
"But I am just a mortal." Dongfang Bai was very frightened.
At such a high altitude, you will definitely die if you fall down, right?
"You are not a mortal." Jiang Taizhou said seriously: "You must know that from the beginning, you have not been exposed to the sword energy method and the path of cultivation, you are actually no longer a mortal."
"You once took charge of the rules and developments of the 'Divine Realm'."
"Although you may not admit it yourself, you have never been a mortal from the beginning."
"But I don't know anything, I don't know anything."
"You don't need to understand." Jiang Taizhou said in a serious face: "Just like you don't need to understand why you need to breathe and how you complete the breathing action."
"If you don't understand, you're still breathing."
"But...but..." Dongfang Bai was still afraid.
"The first realm of cultivation is to motivate spiritual energy."
"But this realm is called 'swallowing desire' when dividing the realm. Do you know why this is?" Jiang Taizhou diverted Dongfang Bai's attention with the question.
"Why?" Dongfang Bai was indeed attracted.
"Because, between heaven and earth, everything, creatures, will gather spiritual energy in their bodies."
"This spiritual energy gathers will not change because of your identity, age, and race."
"All have spiritual energy?" Dongfang Bai was stunned for a moment.
"Otherwise? Do you think some people don't have spiritual energy gathering? Only a small number of people or creatures have it?"
"Does there be no spiritual roots or something?"
"I haven't heard of it." Jiang Taizhou shook his head: "The spiritual energy will be in any corner between heaven and earth, whether it is empty or alive."
"The essence of spiritual energy is part of the operation of the world, the debris of rules, the back of matter, it is everywhere, but some creatures can use it, and some creatures cannot use it."
"So this is the setting." Dongfang Bai nodded.
Jiang Taizhou looked at Dongfang Bai hanging on his arm: "So can you let go?"
"You haven't said why the first realm is called 'swallowing desire'." Dongfang Bai was not so scared.
Although I was still a little scared, I was still reluctant to leave.
"Because you need to constrain your mind and seek spiritual energy through inward vision and try to resonate with it."
"In this process, all your energy will be attracted by the simple and complex things, and all your desires will be consumed."
"Intuitively, it's like all your 'desire' is eaten by spiritual energy."
"So, this state is called "swallowing desire."
"Then what?"
"Then try to control the aura."
"The spiritual energy has an overall trend of disorderly progressing and operating in various directions. What people need to do in their practice is to resonate with it and try to control it."
"So it's 'control of chaos', but you can't really 'control' them, so it's just 'knowing chaos'."
"The third level?" Dongfang Bai was curious: "Why do you say I am a cultivator in the third level?"
"The third realm is actually the threshold to 'enter the Tao'."
"This realm is called 'God Building'."
"When you can resonate with the aura initially, sense them, and conquer them."
“The first problem you will face is coming.”
"What are you practicing for and what is your purpose in practicing?"
"For this purpose, what means do you need to practice."
"This is a step to determine how you should take."
"That is, condense the seeds of thoughts and use this as the core to build your future path."
"I entered the Tao at the age of nineteen."
"I had been in the Second Realm for six years at that time."
"But because I can't find my own 'way', I have been unable to condense the seeds of thoughts, so I have not further practiced."
"But when I was in the second realm, my body gathered spiritual energy and I could already fly by the virtual world for a thousand miles."
"What?" Dongfang Bai was so surprised that he forgot to hug Jiang Taizhou's arm tightly: "You can fly by the second realm by vain, and you can fly thousands of miles a day? Are you kidding, are you?"
"Of course not a joke." Jiang Taizhou looked at Dongfang Bai: "Do you have any misunderstandings about practice?"
“Where is a misunderstanding?”
"The level of cultivation cannot fully represent the combat power and ability of a monk."
"The level of cultivation is just a summary of the process, and it is a relatively safe set of steps summarized by predecessors."
"If your ability reaches it, it's OK to skip a few levels directly."
"There is such a thing." Dongfang Bai smacked his tongue: "Will the foundation be unstable?"
Jiang Taizhou shook his head: "The 'Sword and Qi' you have cultivated are the compulsory methods for the 'swords' practice in recent years."
"This method starts at the third level."
"Really?" The white men in the East were dumbfounded: "You mean..."
"You are not very special." Jiang Taizhou said: "Swordsmen do not have the first and second realms. As long as they become swordsmen, they are at least the third realm of cultivators in terms of classification."
"Then I..."
"You can find your 'sword' now and stand on the verge of nothingness."
"Then I..."
"That's what I'm bringing you here."
Jiang Taizhou pulled his hands.
Dongfang Bai immediately began to fall down.
The sound of the wind whistles in the ears, and the eardrum is swollen and painful.
A voice rang out directly from my mind.
That was Jiang Taizhou's voice.
She said: "Between life and death, it is the most visible and recognized oneself."
"You're in this situation, you're used to denying yourself."
"By the way, you deny your own 'sword'."
"I want you to find your own 'sword'."
Dongfang Bai kept falling down.
Fear grabbed all his mind.
He felt incredible.
Before he could remember to fully absorb the information revealed between Jiang Taizhou's words, he was about to face a life-and-death crisis.
Dongfang Bai felt that a gentle woman like Jiang Taizhou would definitely reach out to help him in the next second.
But on the other hand, the strong wind cuts the surface, and even the eyes can't be opened.
He could only keep falling.
The heart is also falling with the body.
Fear continues to rise.
Where is my sword...?
What is my sword?
