Chapter 300 The Last Star in the Night Sky
What is your kendo?
Pei Yuan's understatement made Xia Sheng fall into long-term contemplation.
Just from his age, Xia Sheng is only sixteen years old this year, but he is not a fledgling rookie. He even said bluntly that his understanding of the path of cultivation will only be higher than that of the saint-level powerhouses of the times, and will not be lower than them.
Pei Yuan is just a sword master. No matter how amazing and beautiful he is, he is still not enough to see the glory of Xia's eighth life.
But now his slight question was as accurate and fatal as the long sword in his hand, which made Xia Sheng a little difficult to answer.
Because Xia Sheng didn't know what the sword path he was following now was.
After a moment, seeing the sky was white, the last cold of the autumn night came like a tide, Xia Sheng shivered, came from his distant thoughts, raised his hand and raised the Haoran sword in front of him, his eyes wide open.
"What's your kendo?"
Pei Yuan did not answer Xia Sheng's question head-on, but turned his gaze to the extremely deep night and sighed: "In fact, many people don't know that only the starry sky that is closest to dawn is the most dazzling."
Xia Sheng followed Pei Yuan and looked up at the sky, smiling slightly: "But the more this time, the colder it is, many people died in despair when the sky breaks."
Pei Yuan looked a little gloomy, but soon returned to his glory and murmured: "But do you know? When the sky was getting white, all the stars did not hide together, but had a certain order. Even the most inconspicuous and the weakest light now, if it persists to the last moment, when all the other stars disappeared, it occupied the entire night sky."
Xia Sheng shook his head and did not unify Pei Yuan's statement, retorting: "No matter how dazzling a star is, no matter how long it has existed in this night sky, it can never occupy the night sky. It can only exist and be accepted by the night sky."
Upon hearing this, Pei Yuan felt moved, and even his eyes became sharper.
"Yes, in the eyes of the world, there will be no night sky. There will be no stars and moons. But have you ever thought that if there were no stars and moons, then how lonely this night sky would be? Have you ever thought that maybe no matter whether this night sky exists or not, the stars and moons are there, it is just whether we can see it."
Pei Yuan's voice suddenly became a little illusory, but to Xia Sheng's voice seemed to open the door to a new world for him.
He once again felt that he had underestimated this swordsman.
Perhaps people who are familiar with Pei Yuan's personality will be extremely shocked by his performance at this moment. Because this is not the cynical and free-spirited swordsman? Instead, he is more like a poet, a philosopher, and a Taoist who has seen through the secrets of heaven.
In front of Xia Sheng, Pei Yuan showed his other side, which was in direct resignation from the opposite side of his daily actions, just like the poles of yin and yang. It was obviously incompatible with each other, but for some reason, he was able to achieve perfect unity in Pei Yuan.
The shock that Pei Yuan brought to Xia Sheng tonight was much stronger than a simple saint-level strongman. Even to say, Xia Sheng had not met anyone who could inspire him on the path of cultivation for many years.
In his first eighth life, regardless of his status or starting point, he was proud of the whole world. He had relatives, friends, brothers, companions, and confidants, but he had no teachers.
Because no one has ever taught him anything since his first rebirth.
This situation lasted for eight lifetimes, spanning nearly 30,000 years, but it has never changed.
Just like Xia Sheng today, although he is only a king-level strong man, with a higher strength and a far-reaching person than him, he cannot take anyone as his teacher, because no one knows the origin of this world better than him, and no one understands the true meaning of power better than him.
Even though Vice President Wei Qiuyue of Chunqiu Academy has made better achievements in spiritual theory than Xia Sheng, for Xia Sheng, he is just a matter of specializing in his profession. He believes that if he devotes himself to studying spiritual theory, he will definitely be able to overcome it.
Originally, Xia Sheng thought that Pei Yuan was the same.
Because just speaking of sword skills, Pei Yuan today may be difficult to match, but in time, Xia Sheng believed that he would definitely be able to reach a wider world than the sword master. The word "Saint Level" is not so far away and not daunting for Xia Sheng.
There is no question of whether it can be done or not.
Just see if he wants it or not.
But just a moment ago, Pei Yuan's arguments between the night sky and the stars and the moon made Xia Sheng look at him with some admiration, because even though he traversed all the scenery in the world and saw through the long river of 30,000 years, he still could not see through the mystery here.
Pei Yuan’s swordsmanship is the way of heaven.
So next, Xia Sheng asked Pei Yuan a very simple but very profound question: Do you think the brighter stars are more important, or the deeper stars are more important?"
Pei Yuan's answer was once again beyond Xia Sheng's expectations.
"It doesn't matter. The stars in the night sky are difficult to calculate, but let me ask, when you look up again, which star do you remember? The star that can be remembered by the world is the most important."
"Something."
Pei Yuan did not give the answer from the two choices that Xia Sheng gave him, but mentioned the third possibility, but in Xia Sheng's opinion, Pei Yuan had already chosen it.
Because if you want the world to remember, first, you need this star to stay in the night sky for a long enough time.
It has grown to eternal eternity.
Therefore, Xia Sheng asked the second question: "If this is the case, why not fight for the bright moon in the sky? The stars are endless, and only the moonlight is eternal."
Pei Yuan shook his head and said, "This is not true. The moonlight is not static. It also has different phases. Of course, for me, it is the reason for the star rather than the moon. The word eternity is too lonely."
Xia Sheng finally understood Pei Yuan’s true intention.
He wants to be a star that is not eternal but can last forever.
At first, these two sentences were contrary, but Xia Sheng knew that perhaps in Pei Yuan's world, this was also a perfect unity.
So he lowered the Haoran sword in his hand three inches, clasped his hands on his chest, bowed his waist slightly, and smiled, "I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
As Xia Sheng's words fell, a brighter glow suddenly burst out in Pei Yuan's eyes than the stars and moons. At the same time, the whole sky also woke up from the absolute darkness. The last star in the night sky gradually disappeared, and replaced by a golden sun rising from the horizon, illuminating the entire world.
