Chapter 1,774: Sword Intention!
Chapter 1774 Sword Intention!
After listening to the story of the white-haired old man, Lin Chen was still a little confused.
He stared at the azure water and couldn't help asking:
"Senior, you have been mentioning 'sword intention' before? And according to you, if a warrior who enters the pool has sword intention, he can stay in the pool for a while longer? Perhaps, he can find a famous sword that matches himself? And successfully bring them out of this sword burial pool?"
"That's right." The white-haired old man nodded.
Lin Chen smiled bitterly and said helplessly:
"First of all, I am very grateful for your kindness. And you are willing to use this method to resolve the grievances between me and Ba Dao Men, which is really admirable.
But... I don't even know what the sword intent is! If I rush into the pool rashly like this, I am afraid that in less than an incense stick of time, my body will be eroded by the sword intent, and I will return empty-handed."
The white-haired old man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled:
"You are very cautious... Yes, I did miss this point. So, answer me a few questions, and I will know whether you can stimulate the sword intent by yourself."
"Excuse me, senior." Lin Chen said respectfully.
"How many years have you practiced sword?" The white-haired old man suddenly asked.
"Well... I have been practicing a set of Kuang Lan sword techniques since I was thirteen or fourteen years old. So far, it should be considered more than ten years. But the way of fighting in the world I live in is completely different from this world, so most of the time I rarely use swords and sword moves to fight opponents." Lin Chen replied truthfully.
The white-haired old man pondered for a moment and asked again:
"When you hold the knife, can you sense a special breath?"
Lin Chen thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that he had a strange feeling when he picked up the Japanese national treasure.
"As for the knife... I haven't felt a special breath, but I once had a sword called Kusanagi Sword, which is one of the three national treasures of Japan. Oh, anyway, this sword is one of the famous magic weapons in my world, and it has existed for more than a thousand years.
When I hold it, I can feel that its sword body seems to contain some kind of violent breath."
Hearing this, the white-haired old man smiled knowingly. Finally, he came to a conclusion.
"Although you don't use the sword much, you are a genius in using the sword. You can feel the sword intent, and you can feel the sword intent.
Although these magic weapons have spiritual energy, they are dead objects, while you are a living person. Once you feel it, you can understand it forever.
And you have too much murderous aura in you, so you can't suppress the sword intent you have realized, so you can't be like me... I can use the sword intent as I please!"
Before he finished speaking...
In an instant, the white-haired old man didn't know how to move, and his somewhat old body suddenly burst out with an invisible breath.
And this breath was extremely sharp. He simply stood there, and there were already scratches about an inch deep on the rocks around the burial pool?
Looking at this incredible scene, Lin Chen's eyes widened, as if petrified.
But in a flash, the white-haired old man had regained his calm appearance, and from a distance, he still looked like an old man in plain clothes.
At this time, the white-haired old man smiled calmly again:
"The depth of martial arts is like the vast ocean. But the martial arts of the world, different paths lead to the same destination, and what they pursue is the return to oneness.
Whether it is the sword intention or the sword intention, or even the intention of other weapons, it seems unfathomable, but in fact it is just the internal strength of the warrior, combined with the internal aura of the weapon, and finally a special kind of energy that can be emitted.
Although I don't have a sword by my side, I can stimulate such a sword intention... That's because I have reached the realm of combined strength. After the unity of heaven and man, I am the sword and the sword is me.
Of course, if I hold a peerless sword in my hand, it can also improve my strength a little. But generally speaking, the warrior himself is the source of strength!
The sword intention focuses on the word "intention". And this word "intention" refers to the point of fit between spirit and object..."
The white-haired old man talked freely, making Lin Chen more and more shocked.
Gradually, under the deliberate guidance of the white-haired old man, Lin Chen felt that a certain shackle in his heart was broken silently.
In an instant, he entered the meditative state unique to warriors.
At this moment, an indescribable strange breath burst out from his body, which continued to spread outward and quickly swept in all directions.
But he was in a meditative state, and his eyes only saw the scene of the white-haired old man teaching and answering questions, so he did not pay too much attention to the rapidly sweeping breath.
Half an hour later.
The white-haired old man stopped explaining.
And Lin Chen also ended his meditative state. His face was full of shock!
In the past period of time, he only felt that his understanding of the way of martial arts had made great progress in the explanation of the white-haired old man. Even his understanding of the realm of combined strength has made a qualitative leap compared to before.
This understanding made him feel that his realm of strength should have stepped into that threshold!
Combined strength! Unity of man and nature!
Only when you reach this level can you be called a true strong man!
Think about the legendary Japanese warrior Mori Shige, who was just a little bit away from breaking through the life and death calamity and becoming a ninth-level warrior. And the reason why he could persist in front of that monster for so long was because he was a super strong man who had comprehended the realm of combined strength!
Now, I should have entered this level!
Lin Chen was extremely excited, and was about to thank the white-haired old man for his generous teachings. At this time, he found that there were many more scratches on the rocks around him?
These scratches, although not as obvious as the scratches left by the old man, are clearly... knife intent!
The white-haired old man looked at Lin Chen with satisfaction, and smiled calmly:
"You are really a rare genius in a thousand years. The elite disciples with better comprehension I just taught can only maintain the time of one incense stick at most, and then they will be released from the meditation state. And you have comprehended the time of six incense sticks!
Hehe, I am lucky to witness the appearance of a martial arts genius at the moment of death!
Okay, you have broken through the threshold of combined strength, and the knife intent can be released at will. Now... It's time to go down and get the knife.
Remember! Although your strength has greatly improved, your true cultivation is still not enough to fight against those famous knives in the Buried Knife Pool.
Once you find a famous knife that matches you, take it and go back, and don't stay in the pool!"
At this time
Lin Chen suddenly realized that his breakthrough was entirely due to the old man, so he immediately bent down and bowed respectfully to him.
"Junior Lin Chen, it is my blessing to receive your careful guidance and make a breakthrough!
I am not from this world, and I don't know what etiquette to use to express my gratitude, so I can only perform this ceremony first. I hope you don't mind."
