Taiping Inn

Although Li Xuandu's learning is complex, there are only three major skills that can really serve as the foundation of Li Xuandu's life, namely: "Xuanwei Zhenshu", "Zuowang Zen Gong", and "Beidou Thirty-six Swords Jue". Now perhaps we can add "Taiyin Thirteen Swords", but "Taiyin Thirteen Swords" is different from the other three. It is a double-edged sword that can hurt others and also hurt oneself.

Earlier, Li Xuandu looked inward at his lower dantian and saw a huge tree in his qi sea, which was the embodiment of the sword energy of "Nitian Jie". There was a black aura around the "giant tree", which was the sword energy of "Taiyin Thirteen Swords". At that time, "Taiyin Thirteen Swords" was not yet established, but after Li Xuandu practiced the eighth sword, the sword intent of "Taiyin Thirteen Swords" finally took shape.

Suddenly, one of the big snakes seemed to have discovered Li Xuandu who was watching from the side. It roared, spit out its snake tongue, and stared at Li Xuandu with its snake pupils, making him unable to move at all.

"All living things enter my eyes."

Li Xuandu immediately recognized the origin of the giant snake. The thirty-six giant swords in his sight suddenly disappeared, leaving only a pair of deep and fascinating snake pupils.

Li Xuandu knew that this was the reason why the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" backfired on the sword master. If he was afraid, he would be taken advantage of. Fortunately, at this time, the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" only had eight swords, especially the most critical "Sword Demon Born by Me", which was the key to the gathering of the sword intent of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin", so just "All living things enter my eyes" was not enough to do anything to Li Xuandu.

After staring at Li Xuandu for a while, the black giant snake saw that it could not do anything to Li Xuandu, and seemed a little anxious, and roared again.

Countless pairs of eyes appeared in the space around Li Xuandu, staring at Li Xuandu, and then began to shatter, like a piece of glass falling to the ground and shattering. The giant sword and the black snake suddenly disappeared, and Li Xuandu only felt a void under his feet, falling into the boundless void below.

Li Xuandu was startled and sat up suddenly. He found himself still in the ruined temple. It was dark outside the temple, and there was a bonfire burning not far from him.

"You woke up." Suddenly a voice sounded in Li Xuandu's ears.

Li Xuandu turned his head and found Qian Yurong sitting beside him, her face full of concern, her eyes slightly red, and a few tears in the corners of her eyes.

Li Xuandu would not be so self-indulgent as to think that the young lady of the Qian family was crying because of him. Imagine a weak woman who had just escaped from danger, and the person she was traveling with fainted again. How could she not be panicked and anxious in the chaotic Qizhou? It was reasonable to cry when no one was around.

Li Xuandu did not point out this matter. After all, with Qian Yurong's strong character, she would probably turn hostile immediately.

Qian Yurong seemed to have noticed her own loss of composure. She turned away slightly, wiped the tears from her eyes with her sleeve, and then turned around and asked, "What happened to you just now?"

Li Xuandu shook his head and sighed softly, "Something went wrong with my practice, and I became possessed."

Qian Yurong was surprised and said, "Being possessed?!"

Li Xuandu said, "You also know about being possessed?"

"I know a little bit." Qian Yurong nodded and said, "When I was young, my father also hired a famous teacher to teach me how to refine qi. That teacher once told me that practicing qigong is not easy. The most feared thing about Kungfu is that it is "possessed by the devil". "Possessed by the devil" means that the internal Qi is agitated and the external Qi is constantly moving, and the Qi and blood in the body are stagnant. If it is not handled properly, it will damage the meridians, Dantian, and acupoints in the body, and even lose all the cultivation, and the body will be like a rotten wood, becoming a useless person. However, these are nothing. The really scary thing is "possessed by the devil". It is said that all kinds of illusions will occur. The practitioner will believe in the illusions and live in an illusory world. He will be confused, manic, crazy, speak incoherently, behave strangely, and be moody, as if he has become a madman. "

Li Xuan nodded.

What Qian Yurong said was not wrong. At this time, he had the "anti-heavenly calamity" sword energy in his body, which was the category of "poisoning by the devil". At least there were traces to follow, just like two armies facing each other, fighting with real swords and guns. The "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" belonged to the category of "possessed by the devil", just like the party struggles in the court. They looked friendly on the surface, but in fact they were smiling with a knife hidden in their hearts, killing people without blood, and it was hard to guard against.

Qian Yurong couldn't help but ask curiously: "What kind of martial arts are you practicing? How did you go astray?"

Li Xuandu couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "You are indeed not a person in the martial arts world. If you were a person in the martial arts world, you wouldn't ask others directly about the martial arts you learned. This is a taboo and you will immediately turn hostile."

Qian Yurong felt a little embarrassed, but then she heard the loophole in Li Xuandu's words and said: "In this case, Mr. Li is a person in the martial arts world."

Li Xuandu smiled lightly and said: "There are many people in the martial arts world in the Qian family, such as the worshiper Sheng Zikuan and the worshiper Fan Zhenyue, who are both masters who have been famous in the martial arts world for a long time. There is also our Qian family's ancestor, who also traveled in the martial arts world in the past, and he is related to Taiping Sect and Xuannv Sect have friendships. And Qian Yulou, who has died, is associated with evil people such as Wudao Sect and Daozhong Sect. Is he considered a Jianghu person? Besides, where is Miss Qian now? Merchants also travel in the Jianghu. Jianghu is not only about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships. "

When Qian Yurong didn't have to work hard for a living, she was a real rich lady. She had a lot of free time every day. She used to read several popular stories in the market to pass the time. Some talked about talented men and beautiful women, and some talked about Jianghu knights. The young knights in the stories were always dressed in white like snow, came and went like the wind, were unrestrained and unrestrained, and were suave. They would go to the crown for the beauty and roar when they saw injustice on the road, which made people fascinated.

But today, when I heard Li Xuan say this, I suddenly felt that the real world is really different from the world in the book.

Li Xuandu continued, "There is another saying, "Where are people, there are rivers and lakes. There are more than a hundred people, all kinds of rivers and lakes, and how big are there, so many of them are inspiring, there are also people in the rivers and lakes, some are heroic, and some are contentious. Fame and profit, the world is not a good place, but a place of right and wrong. Moreover, the world and the temple have never been a good place, but have always been closely connected. However, this connection is not in the open, but invisible. , the temple is like clouds in the sky, the rivers in the lake are rivers on the ground, and it rains in the sky, and it will eventually fall on the ground."

At this time, Li Xuandu's qi turbulence gradually calmed down, but he was afraid of recurring attacks and did not dare to set off immediately, so he was happy to say something good to teach Qian Yurong: "Whenever the temple is powerful, the world will inevitably decline. So at this time, the people in the martial arts world could only hold their tails together, be honest, and dare not act rashly. Those powerful sects in the martial arts world would be like dragons, not dare to make waves, and could only lie dormant at the bottom of the water. But every In troubled times, that is, when the temple is weak, the world will flourish. People from all walks of life will violate the ban with martial arts, and the powerful sects also floated from the bottom of the water and began to stir up trouble. This is the case with the ten evil sects, the ten righteous sects. The same is true for the sect.”

Qian Yurong whispered: "It's fine if Mr. Li said that the ten evil sects are just there, but why don't even let go of the twelve righteous sects?"

Li Xuandu sighed lightly: "There is no righteous battle in the Spring and Autumn Period. In the chaotic world, the word "benefit" is the first, and there is no morality, and there is no reason to say. Although the twelve sects of the righteous path have a word "right", it does not mean what they do. That's right, but compared to the ten evil sects that use any means, the twelve righteous sects are more abiding by the rules. This means there is no evil, and there is no righteousness. The reason why the righteous path is the right path is based on the set of the evil path. If it is gone, Where does these evil ways that ignore the laws of heaven and human feelings come from?”

Qian Yurong was stunned.

At this moment, the "Eight Swords of Taiyin" in Li Xuandu's body broke out again, and countless black aura appeared on his face, and a trace of black aura rose above his head. Qian Yurong had seen Wulin. When a master uses his skills, white air will rise above his head, but this is the first time he has seen such a black air, and he is extremely frightened.

Li Xuan waved his hand and told her not to panic. He ordered, "Miss Qian, put out the bonfire to avoid attracting others. I want to enter into meditation to heal my wounds, and I will wake up in about an hour."

Qian Yurong focused on the key points.

Li Xuan closed his eyes, entered the state of inward vision, and began to regulate his breathing and qi in his body.
