Chapter 138: The Best is Like Water (Subscription Request)

Looking at the information appearing on the light screen, Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, then glanced around.

Inside and outside the jungle.

The tall barbarian warriors on guard, the martial artists who came to watch the battle in tight clothes, the children of noble families, the geniuses of the sects and holy places.

Barbarians, monks from the Buddhist country in the West, Wei people, and foreigners from the Dongzhou Island.

Their eyes all turned over and looked at him, Chen Yi!
"Is this 'Who in the world doesn't know you?'?"

Chen Yi read them one by one, and understood everything in his heart. He felt a sense of heroism rising up unconsciously, and his whole body was like a sharp sword, with its edge revealed.

The next moment, he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the red-blood leopard.

The Spring Rain Sword at his waist flew up automatically and hung in front of Chen Yi's chest, with a faint red light shining on his face.

The flower fairy who had been watching him at the side had a bright look in her beautiful eyes as she sent a message to Xiao Xuanzhen and Xie Changle.

"Senior Sister, Senior Brother Chen seems to have had an epiphany!"

"Brother Changle, please don't let others disturb Brother Chen!"

Xiao Xuan was stunned, looking at Chen Yi with a puzzled expression, wondering what he had suddenly realized just after arriving at the camp?
Is there some sword tradition in this secret realm?
Xie Changle, who was also a sword cultivator, looked back and was surprised, but he believed it completely.

It was because the long sword at his waist had just vibrated violently, and he thought it was probably caused by Chen Yi's sudden realization.

"Junior brother's talent in swordsmanship is really inhuman!"

However, the martial artists around, with different expressions, seemed inexplicably dazed.

All that was seen was the figure sitting upright on the red-blood leopard, with sword intent soaring into the sky, like a giant sword standing proudly between heaven and earth.

But it was only for a moment, and when I looked again, the "Little Sword Immortal" was still the "Little Sword Immortal".

It's just that his figure seems to have changed. Even when he's sitting, his figure seems to be much taller.

He was wearing a loose blue shirt, had a handsome and heroic face, and his thick black hair was combed together with a red rope. In addition, he held the long sword Chunyu across his chest.

What a handsome and elegant “little sword fairy”!
"Just now I seemed to have seen a towering giant sword?"

"I saw it too, the terrifying sword intent!"

"This is Taixu Dao Sect's 'Little Sword Immortal' Chen Yi."

"A man should be like this!"

The eyes of the martial artists became much more eager, thinking that the scene just now was because they were captivated by the sword power held by Chen Yi.

Gongye Shou and others who came forward were about to speak when Xie Changle raised his hand to stop them. After a hushing sound, he motioned for them to lead the way.

Gongye Shou then noticed that something was wrong with Chen Yi. He waved his hand to signal the sword and shield soldiers behind him to surround him, and led a few people into the camp.

See this situation.

Chu Ming and other disciples from aristocratic families and sects looked at each other in shock.

"Second brother, did the young marquis enter a state of enlightenment just now?" Chu Wan'er asked with flickering eyes, seeking confirmation.

"It should be." Chu Ming thought about the scene he saw earlier and couldn't help but sigh: "The young marquis is really a god!"

Chu Chen and Chu Qing opened their mouths, but they thought of something.

"Second brother, the young marquis' swordsmanship has just reached the realm of sword heart enlightenment. Can he go further now that he has suddenly realized it?"

Chu Ming shook his head and sighed, "I don't know either. The young marquis has a genius in swordsmanship. God knows what he has realized."

Upon hearing this, Chu Wan'er said thoughtfully, "I've read in the family library that the Sword Heart Enlightenment Realm is also divided into different levels."

"There are two realms: the unity of mind and sword and the seeds of sword magic. If the young marquis has a sudden enlightenment in sword, I'm afraid he will comprehend the 'seed of magic'."

Chu Ming still shook his head, feeling inexplicably lost.

Think about the Chu family of Jeju Prefecture where he was born. The family has a history of 800 years. There is no shortage of martial arts skills and techniques passed down within the family, and there is also a supply of natural treasures.

With his own talent and hard work, his cultivation has now barely reached the fourth level of spiritual enlightenment, and his skills have only reached a small level of perfection.

Even so, he is also a young genius of the Chu family.

However, compared with Chen Yi, Chu Ming felt that he was just an ordinary person, a member of the lowest class in the world.

“Sometimes the gap between one genius and another is like that between a master and an ordinary person. One cannot help but admire them!”

Chu Wan'er nodded subconsciously, her eyes fixed in the direction of the camp, not knowing what she was thinking.

At this moment, a corner of the lake.

Xie Dongan, Jiang Ye and the tomboy princess, who were in disguise, looked at Chen Yi and others who entered the camp, and they all had a look of surprise on their faces.

"Ang'er, has Chen Yi had an epiphany?"

Jiang Ye shouted loudly, clenching and unclenching his hands with slightly shaking hands, obviously stimulated by the soaring sword intent.

It’s not that he was afraid of the murderous sword intent, but as a fellow genius and a master of boxing, he was eager to rush forward with all his boxing intent.

"maybe."

Xie Dongan nodded slightly, and said in a calm tone:

"With the perfect sword power he has just achieved, I think he should be able to comprehend the rudiments of magical powers."

"Supernatural powers, really enviable." Jiang Ye smacked his lips and said, "I wish I could have a few sudden realizations."

"several times?"

The tomboy at the side said disdainfully: "Xiao Ye, do you think enlightenment is as easy as cabbage and you can get it whenever you want?"

Jiang Ye yelled, "It's not enough to just think about it."

As he said this, he glanced at the tomboy.

"Your Highness, please stop calling me Little Leaf. It makes me sound like a eunuch in the imperial palace."

"No? I want to call you that!"

"you……"

Xie Dongan ignored the quarreling of the two people beside him and stared at the location of the camp, with an inexplicable thought in his mind.

If the "Little Sword Master" becomes stronger, he will probably cause a big commotion when he returns to Kyoto Prefecture.

"Will he become the second Zhou Guanwu?"

Unless Chen Yi's strength can be further improved, his fate will not be better than Zhou Guanwu's.

The Kyoto Prefecture, no, the supreme ruler in the Imperial City will not tolerate an imbalance of power between civil officials and military marquises.

Xie Dongan couldn't help but think of the last lesson his grandfather Xie Jing taught him before he left.

“The greatest good is like water, water benefits all things without any struggle.”

I remember that my grandfather asked him calmly about his understanding of this sentence.

Xie Dong'an's answer at the time was "The highest moral character of a person is to be like water that nourishes all things."

But his grandfather, Xie Jing, the left prime minister who was second only to the emperor in the court, said:

"Wrong! A person's good and evil are all in themselves, how can there be so many noble things?"

"The saying 'the highest virtue is like water' is just someone's way of asking you to be good at it."

Xie Dongan was stunned for a long time before asking, what's the good of such a request?

"My dear grandson, if everyone is like a dragon, it is better for one person to become a dragon!"

"The world is a board, and all the people are chess pieces. If the chess pieces don't fight, there will be no 'big dragon' and 'dragon-slaying technique'!"

Xie Dongan still remembers that his grandfather said this with a smile and pointed upwards, the meaning of which was obvious.

This sentence also applies in the court.

The black pieces and the white pieces are like civil officials and military marquises, fighting against each other.

What the supreme ruler wanted to see was that the ministers in the court maintained a balance - a situation without contention.

If you lose your balance...

"He will take action!"

Thinking of this, Xie Dongan looked up at the white clouds in the sky, his hair ruffled by the wind.

In fact, he did have some protection when he met Chen Yi.

What is retained is nothing else.

Rather, it was his speculation about the death of Zhou Guanwu and the secret struggle between Jingye Marquis Zhou Tiance and Wuan Marquis Chen Taiping.

"Ang'er, what are you thinking about? Are you also scared by that 'little sword fairy'?"

Jiang Ye noticed Xie Dongan's expression and asked.

"You are the one who is scared!" The tomboy princess snorted, "Ange is currently number one on the Earth Ranking, how could he be afraid of Chen Yi, who is number three on the Earth Ranking?"

"But……"

"No buts!"

Xie Dongan looked at his two companions and said helplessly: "You two, go read a book!"

Jiang Ye and the tomboy princess paused, and wanted to say something with sad faces, but were blocked by the words "shut up" that followed.

Then, they stiffly opened the book and started reading.

Ange, we were wrong, please help us solve the Confucianism and Legalism!!

Inside the camp.

"Dakong Buddha" Fuchen looked at Chen Yi, who had a peaceful expression, with Buddha's light faintly visible in his eyes and bits of golden light filling his pupils.

Before he could see clearly, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes.

Fu Chen quickly closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and chanted "Amitabha".

Even so, two streaks of blood still flowed from the corners of his eyes, scaring several young men around him and making them scream in surprise.

"Buddha's son, what are you doing..." Gongye Shou turned around and looked at Fuchen, asking in surprise.

"Don't be alarmed, Your Highness. I won't get in the way."

Fuchen closed his eyes and smiled, "Just now I wanted to watch the donor, Little Sword Immortal, but it was too reckless."

Having said that, he was still confused.

He didn't understand Chen Yi's intention of showing "sudden enlightenment" when he first came here.

Upon hearing this, Gongye Shou and the others looked at each other and quickly had someone help him into the tent to rest.

After the surroundings calmed down, Xie Changle jumped off the Red Blood Leopard, looked in the direction of "Dakong Buddha", and said with a curled lip:
"You little monk are so dishonest, you even tried to spy on your fellow apprentice's enlightenment, you deserve it!"

Xiao Xuanzhen and Flower Fairy also landed carefully, looking at Chen Yi who was still sitting on the Red Blood Leopard, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Changle, what should we do now?" Xie Changle thought for a moment, led the Red Blood Leopard to a corner of the camp, and said:

"Junior Brother Chen's enlightenment cannot be disturbed."

"Junior Sister Hua, you stay next to the leopard. Junior Sister Xiao will set up the formation, and I will guard outside."

The flower fairy nodded, jumped onto the red-blood leopard's back again, and stared at Chen Yi without blinking.

Xiao Xuanzhen stopped messing around and honestly took out a set of formation flags and set up a concealed and isolated formation.

After seeing Chen Yi and the other two disappear, Xie Changle accused Gong Ye Shou and the others of a crime.

"My junior brother has been inconvenienced a lot, I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Gongye Shou naturally would not put on airs. He just spoke of good things and had people prepare tables and chairs for him. He sat in the camp to guard it.

Xu Sannian said with envy, "Brother Yi, you are amazing. Although we are both born as Wuhou, the gap between us and him is getting bigger and bigger."

Pang Longxiang smiled innocently and said, "You say, if we had joined the Taixu Dao Sect together, would we be able to be like him now?"

Gongye Shou shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not as simple as you think."

"Yes, Brother Yi was the 'Little Sword Master' when he was in Kyoto Prefecture. We can't compare with him."

"It is fitting that he has been favored by His Majesty at the age of two."

It was the first time Xie Changle heard of this, so he asked hurriedly, "Junior Brother Chen, did you meet that person when you were a child?"

"More than that," Xu Sannian said in an exaggerated tone, "The emperor even held him in his arms."

As he spoke, he told Xie Changle how Chen Yi became famous in Kyoto Prefecture and was sought after by many nobles.

"There are many suitors, including dukes, marquises, and civil officials..."

He does not mean that.

Gongye Shou listened for a moment and wondered in his heart, could it be that the emperor saw Chen Yi's potential at that time?

It should be.

At that time, Gu Tiangang took good care of him when he was in Xingwu Academy, and he should have noticed his talent in swordsmanship.

Now that I think about it, everything has a traceable origin.

……

Above the sky, Gu Tiangang and Sun Daofu were laughing happily.

"Well, well, well, Junior-Martial Brother Chen Yi is truly extremely talented!"

"It's a good sign that I can have this sudden enlightenment right after arriving at this real dragon's training ground!"

Gu Tiangang looked at the camp below with his eyes flashing, and he could clearly see Chen Yi and Flower Fairy on the Red Blood Leopard.

"Brother, what did Junior Brother Chen see just now?"

Sun Daofu also had a smile on his face and asked, "It hasn't been long since he made a breakthrough in swordsmanship. If he makes another breakthrough, he will be close to supernatural powers."

"No matter what he realizes, as long as his strength grows, it will be good for our Taixu Dao Sect."

Gu Tiangang didn't think too much about it, and said with a smile: "Don't forget, this trip is to solve the limitation of his spiritual acupoint cyclone, and everything else is an unexpected gain."

"It would be best if he could improve his swordsmanship further, so that he can secure a spot in the upcoming Wei Dynasty event."

"There is also the selection of the younger generation in Tianyuan Continent, which is more related to the subsequent gambling battle on the Taizhou Mountain battlefield."

"And don't forget, Junior Brother Qingzhou said that those adults will open that secret realm before the gambling fight."

"It's a great thing for him, Jianfeng Mountain, and Taixu Dao Sect!"

Sun Daofu thought so too, and his eyes couldn't help but look towards the flower fairy with anticipation in his expression.

"I wonder if my disciple can have such luck."

"Everyone who can will have it."

Gu Tiangang said with a smile: "Not only Fairy Flower's nephew, but also my disciple, if his bloodline awakens, he will definitely get a place!"

"By then, my Taixu Dao Sect will have three places, hahahaha..."

Having said that, Gu Tiangang couldn't help but laugh again.

Just thinking about that kind of situation made him unable to stop smiling, and he suddenly felt that the sect's future was bright.

"Brother," Sun Daofu could not smile and said hesitantly:

"It's a good thing to get a quota, but the gambling battle that follows is not that simple."

"If something unexpected happens to them, I'm afraid..."

Gu Tiangang's smile froze, and he immediately cursed, "Bah bah bah, you bastard, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"If that happens, I will kill you, you jinx!"

Sun Daofu begged for mercy again and again, and said with a wry smile: "Brother, you should also know that demons are not easy to deal with. I am worried too."

Hearing this, Gu Tiangang completely lost interest and glared at him in dissatisfaction.

However, he had to admit that Sun Daofu's worries were not groundless.

On the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain, humans and demons fought several times, with both sides winning and losing.

But as far as he knew, even if they won, it was a pyrrhic victory, and many of the warriors who participated in the war became ordinary people after the war.

"If you gain something, you have to lose something. How can you have both?"

Just at this moment, three figures appeared beside the two of them, followed by a burst of laughter.

"Guo Lao Dao is right. There is no such thing as having the best of both worlds."

"If you are worried about the safety of your disciples, why not give the 'Little Sword Immortal' to me at Wuliangshan?"

Gu Tiangang turned his head to look, and then he cursed: "I was wondering who was so arrogant, it turned out to be Lou Zamao!"

"Gu Zamao!"

"Lou Zamao!"

"..."

Sun Daofu looked at the newcomers and his expression calmed down. "Three Taoist friends, long time no see."

I saw three Taoists wearing Wuliangshan Taoist robes coming together.

The thin and short old man in the lead, who was jumping and cursing at Gu Tiangang, was an elder of the Fantian Sect of Wuliang Mountain - Lou Liuzhi.

In addition, there was a burly man who was Yunshan, the palm master of the physical cultivation lineage.

The last one is the charming female Taoist priest, the elder of Fuhai Taoist priest Xu Feiyan.

"Master Sun, how are you?" Cheng Yunshan raised his head and clasped his fists.

Xu Feiyan was petite. She looked at the two people who were still cursing at each other and said helplessly:

"Fellow Daoist Sun, I hope that our two families can advance and retreat together in this secret realm."

Sun Daofu's eyes twitched slightly, and he looked towards the bustling lakeside below, noticing the six Wuliangshan disciples who had arrived.

After taking a look, he smiled and nodded.

"As we are both Taoist sects, we can naturally join forces."

"Several disciples of my Wuliang Mountain are quite strong." Cheng Yunshan glanced at him, a hint of pride showing on his rough face.

"Then I wonder which one is the nephew of Lou Wushan?" Sun Daofu asked with a smile.

Cheng Yunshan snorted, "Junior Brother Lou is extremely talented, so he doesn't need to come to this secret realm to train."

"It's Junior Brother Qingzhou's disciple, the 'Little Sword Immortal', whose cultivation is not high but whose reputation is great. I'm afraid he doesn't deserve the reputation."

Before Sun Daofu could say anything, Gu Tiangang turned around immediately after hearing what he said.

"Cheng Zamao, your fucking strength has improved, right? Why are you so arrogant?"

"Come on, come on, come and fight with me!"

Cheng Yunshan's face darkened, and he turned his head away without responding.

He is a physical cultivator with only a few skills. Wouldn't he be crazy to fight against Gu Tiangang, a Taoist who practices the Eight Methods of Taixu?
If his strength reaches the Void Realm, he can even compete with Gu Tiangang.

Not only him, but also Lou Liuzhi and Xu Feiyan from Fantiandao and Fuhaidao did not respond.

They all knew that if they were to compete with people of the same realm, no one would be able to gain an advantage over the Eight Methods of Taixu.

It’s not that they can’t win, but it’s too difficult. They basically have to fight until they are exhausted and their true energy is depleted before the winner can be determined.

There's nothing you can do. The Eight Methods of Taixu are simply too comprehensive.

Not only is his offense and defense balanced, but he also has the Duize method to restore his true essence and energy. He is truly incomparable to other cultivators at the same level.

"I don't think you would dare, hehe."

Gu Tiangang put his hands behind his back, looking proud, as if everything was second only to him.

Sun Daofu smiled bitterly to himself, and then said to the three people with a smile: "Three Taoist friends, my senior brother has such a temper, please forgive me."

"Hey?"

Gu Tiangang glared at him but said nothing more.

Cheng Yunshan's expression improved, he glanced at the lake below, and asked:
"I heard that Yuhua Xianmen attacked the 'Little Sword Immortal' a few days ago?"

Lou Liuzhi and Xu Feiyan, who were standing beside them, looked at the two of them, with a hint of gloating on their faces.

Without waiting for Gu Tiangang to speak, Sun Daofu said first: "Things that have not been confirmed yet will be investigated after returning to the sect."

Lou Liuzhi said meaningfully: "Ye Ningxiu has already admitted this, and he was punished for it."

"Oh?"

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Sun is not sincere. Well, we are all from the same sect, so we should help each other."

"We can't let the Buddhist community and the academies look down on us."

Gu Tiangang pinched his nose and snorted, "If we find out that they are from Yuhua Xianmen, I will definitely not let them go."

Afterwards, the five of them stopped talking, and there was a hint of sarcasm in their expressions.

Gu Tiangang asked in a voice transmission: "Sun Zamao, what do you mean by saying this?"

Sun Daofu explained: "Brother, Wuliangshan has occupied the first position in the Dao Sect for many years and is no longer satisfied with the status quo."

"I think if our Taixu Dao Sect goes to war with Yuhua Xianmen, they will definitely have other ideas."

Gu Tiangang suddenly realized something and smacked his lips a few times, too lazy to speak again.

He hates these twists and turns the most, they are not refreshing at all!
