Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

During the fierce battle, Li Mu personally felt the opponent's disadvantages. His sword was as fast as the wind, his sword moves were as accurate as hopeless, his sword energy was as thick as a mountain, and it contained endless power..., etc., the opponent's overall strength was higher than his own. With just a few points left, he collided with the opponent's sword energy and sword intent, and was always at a disadvantage.

Soon, Li Muming realized the reason.

It's Kenshin!

This opponent has already understood the sword heart that he has always wanted.

It is precisely because of the understanding of the sword's heart that his sword intention can be so pure, his sword moves can be so precise, and his sword energy can be so long and sharp.

At this time, Ling Feng, who was fighting against Li Mu, also felt great pressure.

The originally confident sword moves seemed to be a little powerless in front of Li Mu. Ling Feng was surprised to find that although Li Mu's aura was only at the level of the initial stage of divine transformation, his true energy was as rich as the peak of divine transformation, even at a certain level. In some aspects, he has surpassed the realm of spiritual transformation and reached the level of great power in refining the void. His escape skills are even more superb, whether it is dodge. He was dazzled by the attacks, and the opponent's spiritual thoughts were also extremely strong, with almost no flaws. Every attack was skillfully resolved by him.

What surprised Ling Feng even more was that the opponent didn't seem to understand the sword heart that he was proud of, but seemed to have mastered the "sword domain" of a higher dimension than the sword heart. He used the power of the sword heart in front of the opponent's sword domain. , seems to be restrained and unable to exert its due power.

After a violent collision, the two of them retreated tens of feet each, and stood steadily in the air, looking at each other. There was admiration and vigilance in their eyes. The strength of the other party should not be underestimated. The next battle It will be more intense and tougher.

"Have you understood the heart of the sword?" Li Mu stood in the air, with his spiritual sword hanging down, looking at Ling Feng and asked.

"That's right!" Ling Feng looked at Li Mu and simply nodded, and then asked a series of questions in confusion: "You seem to have mastered the Sword Domain? You didn't master the Sword Heart but you were able to realize the Sword Domain? How did you do it?"

Li Mu frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about how to answer Ling Feng's question. The sword domain he mastered was gained by increasing the level of skills through the panel. It had nothing to do with his own understanding. However, the sword heart was a mysterious existence. , which cannot be obtained by simply upgrading the skill level. This can't help but make Li Mu feel a little discouraged.

"What! Is there anything you can't say?" Ling Feng asked with concern.

"You have too many questions, but I only asked one. I'm trying to answer your question." Li Mu smiled and gestured.

Hearing this, the corner of Ling Feng's mouth twitched, and he realized that he was indeed a little too eager. He quickly took a deep breath, calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "I want to know all three questions. In exchange, I can answer them again." You have two questions.”

There was a kind of sincerity in Ling Feng's tone when he said this, and his eyes became hot. He obviously attached great importance to the sword domain that Li Mu had mastered. The sword domain was a realm that was more advanced than the sword heart. If he could master it, he would definitely win. Go to the next level in kendo.

"Okay, first tell me how to understand the sword heart, and what should I do to quickly master the sword heart!" Li Mu nodded happily, looked at Ling Feng, and asked thoughtfully.

After entering the sword tower for several years, Li Mu has never had a clue about understanding the sword's heart. He originally thought that he could understand the sword's heart through honing his sword skills and combat experience. However, so far, Li Mu has not gained any knowledge of the sword's heart. of opportunity.

It was rare to meet a challenger who could master the sword's heart today. Li Mu would not miss the opportunity.

After listening to the questions asked by Li Mu, Ling Feng frowned, organized his words, and thought about how to answer these two questions.

After a while, Ling Feng looked at Li Mu and replied in a deep voice: "The heart of the sword should be the heart of the sword cultivator who holds the sword. It is the concentration of the sword cultivator's mental strength and belief, inheriting the sword in his will, holding the sword in his heart, and persevering in the sword. Connected with the sword's intention, over time, sword cultivators will be able to suddenly understand the sword's intention."

After explaining this, Ling Feng seemed to be stumped. After hesitating for a moment, he continued to answer: "Understanding the sword's heart is the same as understanding the sword's intention. There is no trick. Some people ask for the sword in a day, and some don't get it for hundreds of years. However, on the contrary, There are several stupid ways that can help you to understand the sword heart. I practiced hard for thirty years in the sword heart hall, successfully asked the sword, and obtained the sword heart. Taixuan Peak - Xuan Jianzi, practiced the sword day and night, and achieved the sword in a hundred days. Heart, Asking the Sword Peak - Sword Master Chen, after watching the waterfall for three days, he suddenly realized the heart of the sword..."

Ling Feng listed to Li Mu several sect geniuses who had understood the heart of the sword. He looked at Li Mu and finally concluded: "It takes an opportunity to realize the heart of the sword, and it also requires the persistence of the sword practitioner. If there is no sword in the heart, the heart of the sword is rare. If there is no sword in the heart, the heart of the sword is rare. If you have a sword in your heart, there is no need to search around for it, it will come naturally when the time comes."

After listening to Ling Feng's introduction, Li Mu thought thoughtfully and understood the reason why he had not been able to understand the sword's heart for a long time. He was not a pure sword cultivator. Most of his thoughts were on the spiritual things he had planted, even if he was a swordsman. While guarding the tower or in the Jianxin Palace, Li Mu would contact the seven divine clones from time to time through his spiritual thoughts and learn about the status of the spiritual plants they were taking care of. He was concerned about them from beginning to end.

"Elder Li, it's your turn to respond to me. You have mastered the sword domain, that's right!" Ling Feng stared at Li Mu closely, his eyes shining with anticipation.

Meeting Ling Feng's curious gaze, Li Mu nodded with a smile and admitted frankly: "Yes, I have indeed mastered the Sword Domain."

"So, how did you master the sword domain?" Ling Feng perked up and asked with concern.

Li Mu pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly, with a hint of unspeakable mystery between his brows: "The understanding of the Sword Domain is indeed difficult to describe accurately in words. It is indeed inextricably linked to the cultivation of the Sword Formation. In the process of practicing sword formation for countless days and nights, I gradually became aware of the wonderful interaction between sword intention and the surrounding space. Whenever I condense the sword formation and sword intention to their peak state, the feeling is like touching something. This invisible force seemed to be like gossamers, surrounding me, closely connected with my sword intention, and blending with each other. As time went by, this feeling became stronger and stronger, until one day, I finally With a sudden enlightenment, I understood the secret of the Sword Domain."

Although Li Mu's words were plain, each sentence seemed to contain the profound wisdom of swordsmanship. Hearing Ling Feng's mind stirred up, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After a long time, Ling Feng suddenly raised the spiritual sword in his hand, looked at Li Mu, with burning fighting spirit in his eyes, and invited him to fight: "Elder Li, please teach me the art of sword formation!"

Seeing this, Li Mu smiled slightly and did not say much. He saw the Jiuzang Spirit Pearl in his hand flashing with brilliance, and a handful of Spirit Swords flew out like meteors, quickly gathering in the air. Hundreds and thousands of Spirit Swords flew out. The sword circled in the air, emitting streams of sharp sword energy.

Li Mu pinched the sword skills, and as his fingers flew, mysterious sword skills condensed and formed in the air.

Following Li Mu's spiritual thoughts, nearly a thousand spiritual swords quickly arranged and combined according to specific trajectories, eventually forming a blooming green lotus in the sky.

This green lotus is composed of nearly a thousand fifth-order bamboo swords. Each bamboo sword exudes a faint green light, and the sword tip points to the center, forming a perfect sword array - the Green Lotus Sword Array.

Once the Green Lotus Sword Formation was formed, it quickly enveloped Ling Feng. The Green Lotus slowly rotated, and the lotus leaves composed of spiritual swords unfolded, making bursts of sword sounds. The sword energy in the sword formation became stronger and stronger. The richer.

Ling Feng was in the sword formation, feeling the sharp sword energy around him. He felt a chill wash over his body, and a deadly murderous intention filled the air.

Facing this unparalleled sword formation, Ling Feng did not show the slightest fear. The true energy in his body boiled and merged with the spiritual sword in his hand. He started fighting in the Qinglian Sword Formation. Every time the sword tip hit the bamboo sword The collisions made a crisp metal collision sound, and sparks flew everywhere.

Upon seeing this, Li Mu's eyes flashed with admiration, and with a thought, the sword energy in the Qinglian Sword Formation instantly became more powerful, as if it was about to surround and tear Ling Feng in the sword formation into pieces.

Ling Feng was taken aback, and immediately used his sword moves to the extreme, and his sword energy suddenly arose to resist the invasion of endless sword energy.

For a moment, the Qinglian Sword Formation was filled with sword energy and sword light, and the battle between the two had reached a fever pitch.

However, Li Mu, who successfully used the Green Lotus Sword Formation, seemed calm and calm at the moment. He stood aside and controlled the posture changes of the sword formation remotely, as if everything was under control.

Ling Feng, who was in the sword formation, was in a desperate situation. He kept trying to break through the constraints of the Qinglian Sword Formation, but every attempt ended in failure and he could not pose any threat at all.

As time goes by, the sword energy in the Qinglian Sword Formation becomes more and more powerful. Ling Feng consumes a lot of energy and his face becomes more solemn. He frantically resists the thousands of spiritual swords in the sword formation and is exhausted.

Not long after.

"boom!"

A loud noise exploded in the Qinglian Sword Formation, sword energy overflowed, and thousands of spiritual swords exploded, like fireworks, blooming with countless sword energy.

Seeing this, Li Mu smiled slightly, dispelled the Qinglian Sword Formation, and retrieved the Thousand Level Five Moon Bamboo Spirit Sword.

At this time, he looked at Ling Feng in the field. His white brocade clothes were wrinkled and in pieces. He had obviously suffered a lot of damage in the fierce battle just now. There were beads of sweat on his forehead and there were mist on his head. It was obviously really... Yuan He's face was blood red due to the mental exertion of the drama, his eyes were full of exhaustion, and he looked embarrassed.

However, Ling Feng understood that Li Mu had spared his hand in the previous battle, otherwise, he would not have been left unscathed in a miserable state.

"Elder Li, your sword formation skills are unparalleled. Ling is convinced that he lost." Ling Feng respectfully held a sword salute to Li Mu and admitted defeat.

"I accept it!" Li Mu smiled slightly and returned the greeting.

Ling Feng looked at Li Mu and said goodbye before leaving: "Elder Li, I would like to advise you before leaving. Although there are no rules in the sword tower, you have been guarding the 100th floor for too long and no one can beat you. In this way, you will not be able to defeat anyone." It will be helpful for other disciples to break into the tower. I suggest you climb up the tower and guard the ring, so as to avoid the sect’s senior officials feeling grudge against you.”

"Thanks for the reminder!" Li Mu smiled and nodded in thanks.

Ling Feng smiled, said nothing, and shot a sword energy with his index finger on the protective sword talisman. Then, with a whoosh, his figure disappeared in the sword tower space.

Watching Ling Feng disappear, Li Mu withdrew his gaze. After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and fired a sharp sword energy, which disappeared into the sword talisman. Then, his figure disappeared into the sword tower space.

Li Mu's purpose for climbing the sword tower this time was very simple. One was to hone his sword skills and gain practical experience, and the other was to try to understand the legendary sword heart.

During the period of guarding the ring, Li Mu experienced countless battles, his sword skills were greatly improved, and his practical combat experience became very rich. However, after talking with Ling Feng, he realized the importance of understanding the difficulty and opportunity of the sword's heart. Xing, learned that it is not easy to understand the heart of the sword.

Knowing that he was far from understanding the existence of the sword's heart, there was no point in continuing to defend the ring, so Li Mu decisively chose to give up.

After leaving the sword tower, Li Mu immediately flew to the Contribution Hall with his sword.

During this period of defense, he earned millions in sect contributions. Now was the time to convert these contributions into the required resources. Li Mu decided to use these contributions in exchange for some spiritual materials to assist the growth of spiritual plants.

Li Mu left the sword tower and flew to the Contribution Hall with his sword.

As everyone knows, Li Mu's departure caused an uproar. The originally silent Sword Tower Battle List now became bustling with people. Countless disciples gathered together, staring at the strange changes on the battle list, and the voices of discussion continued one after another.

"It's really strange. Senior Brother Ling has obviously been defeated. Why is it that now 'Lao Hu' has left and the 100th floor champion has a bye?" A disciple suddenly discovered something and screamed in surprise.

His voice was loud and stood out, immediately attracting the attention of those around the sword tower.

Ling Feng's original record of defeat in challenging 'Li Laohu' made countless people regret it, but it was also expected.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the battle list showed that the champion of the 100th floor of the sword tower was vacant.

Li Mu, who had occupied the position of the leader of the hundred-level competition for several years, for some unknown reason, clearly defeated Senior Brother Ling, but then gave up his position as the leader.

"Haha, great, our chance has come!" Someone excitedly patted the shoulder of his companion next to him, with a look of anticipation in his eyes, and guessed: "'Lao Lao Li' must have been injured by Senior Brother Ling. Now that we are unable to maintain our position as the champion, maybe we can take advantage of the opportunity to take over!"

However, some are skeptical. A calm voice retorted: "Stop talking nonsense, haven't you seen 'Le Tiger''s previous record? He is so strong, how could he be injured so easily? Besides, even if he is really injured, He may not necessarily give up the position of champion. Don’t forget, he is a very persistent person. He has occupied this champion for more than three years. He may come back one day and occupy this champion again. "

"Maybe Elder Li has given up! After so many years, he must be tired of it!"

"There is a possibility that 'Li Laohu' has left, and the sword tower will be lively again."

"Hurry up and line up to enter the tower! Maybe you will have the opportunity to sit in the title of Champion for a few days."

…

As Li Mu left, the disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect continued to discuss and get excited. Because of Li Mu's existence, they had been overwhelmed by him. Now, he finally left, and the atmosphere at the scene became lively. They were all gearing up and queuing up to sign up to enter the sword tower.

The sword tower has once again become the focus of everyone's attention, and a fierce battle for the championship is about to take place. (End of chapter)
