Chapter 619 True Theory of Sitting and Discussing, True Verbal Struggle

"Song Tian, ​​I never expected you to become so impatient after your breakthrough."

"It seems that the demonic path has had some influence on you. You're following the path of proving your path through force?"

Cheng Xiao forced himself to remain calm and said with a stern expression.

Song Tian's frenzied fighting spirit subsided slightly, and he slowly said, "That's right."

"Whether it is the demonic path, the holy path, or the ruthless path, they are all paths I pursue."

"Inner demons are only a part of my path. Whether it's overcoming inner demons or proving my path with force, I prefer to use upright sword intent to completely obliterate them."

“In these three months, I have fought thousands of battles with my inner demons.”

“We are both getting stronger in the fight. Every time he beats me by half a move, I will beat him by half a move next time.”

"His swordsmanship is arrogant and domineering, honed in the crucible of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and upholds the demonic path of self-importance."

"My sword is in harmony with the Way of Heaven, representing the will of the heavens, and follows the ruthless Way of Heaven."

"I could have combined the two and broken through my inner demons much earlier, but that would have been too boring."

"After all, he is my enemy."

"Only by defeating every opponent and cutting off their heads can I keep climbing higher."

"A demon in your heart is a demon in your heart!"

"In my eyes, they are just enemies!"

"Therefore, in the 1,762nd battle, I severed my inner demons, melted the Autumn Water Blade into myself, and became the blade with my own body."

"Obtain the sword, forget the sword, I alone possess the sword, the world is filled with swords, this is my way."

"Cheng Xiao, what about your path? Did you achieve sudden enlightenment and break through the barrier, or did you achieve it through destruction and then rebuilding?" Song Tian asked with great interest.

Cheng Xiao was bewildered by Song Tian's talk about forgetting the sword after acquiring it. He couldn't understand it, but he could tell that this was the realm of swordsmanship.

"To acquire the sword and then forget the sword"—this seems to be Song Que's way of the sword.

He was able to overcome his inner demons only because he was taught a lesson by Zhuang Boshi, plus various stimuli, and Wang Xia cooperated in staging a play. In the end, "Chu Xuan" was the one who ended it all. He only succeeded by sheer luck. There was no experience to speak of.

Does that mean my experience consists of getting slapped dozens of times?
He wouldn't dare say that.

But he can still seek help from outside the field.

There is an "old man" who is always with you.

Zhuang Boshi said, "Don't listen to his mysterious talk. He just forcibly eliminated his inner demons by spending time."

"I'm walking the same path as you, proving my way through force, but I'm walking it much more steadily than you."

"It was thanks to me that you broke free from your inner demons and regained your rationality; otherwise, you would have been consumed by them."

“Song Tian has always known what he wants, tsk tsk tsk.”

"Look how carefree other people are, and look at yourself!"

While being relentlessly criticized by Zhuang Boshi, Cheng Xiao pretended to be nonchalant: "So it turns out that he proved his Dao through force."

"The same path as me."

"You're not bad."

In terms of true martial arts, ten Cheng Xiaos are no match for Song Tian, ​​but in terms of empty boasting, a hundred Song Tians are no match for Cheng Xiao.

Song Tian was slightly surprised: "Cheng Xiao, your talent is indeed more outstanding than mine."

"Three months ago, you were only at the third stage of gene lock, but now, you have actually overcome your inner demons."

"It's truly amazing."

"I never expected that you could wake up from the flesh and blood of that giant beast without any external help."

"Are you going to practice your technique on me first? You truly deserve to be called a martial arts genius."

“No,” Cheng Xiao said.

"Your way is not my way."

Cheng Xiao slowly sat down, opposite Song Tian.

Seeing this, Song Tian's expression shifted slightly: "You want to discuss the Dao with me?"

He chuckled softly: "Even in this infinite world, you can be considered a grandmaster of martial arts."

“You are qualified to discuss philosophy with me.”

Cheng Xiao smiled slightly and looked up at the sky: "You walk the path of ruthlessness, taking the Way of Heaven as your standard."

His mind raced: "Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs."

"But is the ultimate path of martial arts really that simple?"

Song Tian asked curiously, "The greatest truths are the simplest; shouldn't it be like this?"

“If it were that simple, then the Supreme God wouldn’t exist.” Cheng Xiao exuded the air of a master, appearing quite composed.

"The great principles of the world can all lead to the realm of sages."

“And the path I walk is the path of all living beings.” “What is the path of all living beings?” Song Tian asked curiously.

Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "A flower is a world, a leaf is a Bodhi tree."

—What the hell am I saying?!

—He won't pull out a knife and kill me, will he?!

What path is this?

Song Tian also sat cross-legged, his eyes, filled with a knife-like intent, scanning Cheng Xiao back and forth.

Now that Cheng Xiao has entered the fourth level, his spiritual senses are extremely sharp. He felt as if a sharp knife was constantly scraping his skin, making him subconsciously want to fight back.

"Give him a try!" Zhuang Boshi commanded in his mental space.

Cheng Xiao then flicked out a wind pellet formed from his internal energy and shot it towards Song Tian. Song Tian lightly waved his hand, and a wisp of sword energy shattered the wind pellet.

Cheng Xiao reached out again and crushed the wisp of sword energy in his hand: "As expected, the cold and ruthless Heavenly Blade."

"You're planning to start a war here?" Song Tian's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he was about to make his move.

But Cheng Xiao shook his head.

"No."

"This is simply my way."

"Your Dao?!" Song Tian's eyebrows shot up.

He couldn't understand how such a simple change in internal energy could represent Cheng Xiao's Dao.

Is Cheng Xiao trying to express something through this?

At that moment, Cheng Xiao stepped forward and extended his palm. As he pushed his palm forward, the shockwave from the edge of his palm was overwhelming, accompanied by a muffled booming sound.

"Good!" Song Tian shouted, his wrist flipping like lightning.

The edge of his raised palm suddenly condensed a chilling blade intent. It was not a physical weapon, yet it cleaved the surrounding light in two. The chilling aura invaded before the blade even arrived, and the air in front of Cheng Xiao's palm was actually cut with fine cracks by this invisible blade.

The moment the palms and knives clashed, the air emitted a shrill whistling sound like shattering glass.

The opposing air currents spread outwards like a tsunami.

The Godzilla shell beneath their feet suddenly cracked, the fissures spreading ten feet like a spider web, and the distant clouds were torn apart by this invisible force.

Godzilla let out a piercing scream and shook violently.

Cheng Xiao remained expressionless, but his internal organs were already bleeding. If Zhuang Boshi hadn't protected his internal organs, he would have likely vomited a large amount of blood.

Song Tian's wrist trembled slightly, and the knife intent on his palm dissipated.

Just as Cheng Xiao was thinking about what words to say, Song Tian burst into laughter.

"I understand."

"I have heard that ancient martial artists would sit and discuss the Dao, engaging in heated debates, not only exploring their own Dao, but also honing their skills."

Cheng Xiao feigned profundity, responding with a smile without uttering a word.

"Haha, interesting, interesting. I see the spirit and vision of a traditional martial artist in you." Song Tian became even more interested.

"Alright, you won the internal strength contest just now."

Just as Cheng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, Song Tian smiled slightly: "Then take a look at this strike of mine, how about it?"

After saying that, Song Tian raised his hand again like a knife and chopped it down hard on Cheng Xiao's head.

This strike was not as straightforward as before; it contained at least ten variations within a single move, exquisite and unpredictable.

Even with Cheng Xiao's keen eyesight, he could only discern a dozen or so variations; he couldn't see any more than that.

Clearly, this strike was extremely difficult to block.

If the previous move was the limit of strength, then this move is Song Tian's demonstration of skill.

Cheng Xiao was sweating profusely. In a moment of crisis, he slapped Godzilla's head hard.

Godzilla let out a violent roar, and its body trembled violently.

Song Tian's attack was so disrupted that it completely went astray, and the attack failed on its own.

Song Tian was taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Cheng Xiao laughed: "Your knife is indeed exquisite, with endless variations that even I cannot fathom."

"But you've forgotten a principle: water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

“We are all in the midst of this grand trend of the universe. Just like now, this is Godzilla’s world, and it is the protagonist here.”

"Your exquisite swordsmanship can be neutralized by the power of this world."

"You can hit me, but can you cut down the whole world?"

His speech was a wake-up call.
