Chapter 275 The Solitary Peak Is Like a Cut, the Bright Moon Hangs High, and the Sword Energy Is Like Water!

Jiang You lived in Emei Mountain and practiced "Autumn Water Sword" with concentration. With the company of the rising and setting of the sea of ​​clouds every day, a week passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past few days, there was no mundane matter to bother Jiang You. Gong Jianqiu did not go up the mountain to find him. He practiced swordsmanship during the day and practiced longevity at night. With the meticulous service of the old man, he lived a very relaxed and comfortable life. Even the donkey was covered with a few layers of fat, and its body became bigger and bigger, almost like a horse.

The first six levels of "Autumn Water Sword" were nothing to Jiang You. When he reached the seventh level, he needed to comprehend the meaning of autumn water and start to move towards the realm of sword energy.

But it was spring at this time, and even the spring cold had passed. It was difficult for Jiang You to comprehend autumn water in spring.

At this time, he sat cross-legged on a rock that he had cut flat on the cliff, closing his eyes to comprehend the mystery of sword energy.

After a long time, Jiang You stretched out his hand, and a five-colored light flew into the pine forest behind him. A pine branch broke and flew towards him. Halfway, the light flickered, and the twigs on the pine branch broke, and sawdust flew out continuously. When he reached the top, it had turned into a pine sword.

He grabbed the wooden sword and slashed forward, and saw a thin green light flashing on the wooden sword, and the wooden sword suddenly broke into powder and flew away.

He sighed, "It still doesn't work!"

For him, there is no difference between wooden swords and iron swords. If the sword energy is not comprehended, the immortal qi in the body cannot be transformed into sword energy and emitted. As long as it is a mortal sword, it will end up like this.

This day is the third day that Jiang You has stopped at the sixth level. In the past few days, the pine forest behind him has almost been plucked out by him.

"To comprehend the Autumn Water Sword Qi in spring is completely against the will of heaven. We should just go with the flow!"

Jiang You felt that he was just one step away from comprehending the sword Qi, but there was always a little opportunity missing. He sat in meditation for three days but could not find the opportunity. Now he could only change his mindset.

He reviewed the full text of "Autumn Water Sword" in his mind again, and changed his mindset from that of a practitioner to that of a practitioner who creates a technique.

He no longer thought about how to practice the fastest, but why to practice in this way and what the purpose of practicing in this way was.

In this way, Jiang You sat from sunrise to sunset again, constantly deducing the technique in his mind. At this time, the advantage of his strong mental power was reflected. He deduced in more than a dozen directions in his mind at the same time. He quickly cut off the ones that could not be pushed halfway and started again.

Until a small cycle, the sun rose again, and his mind suddenly flashed with two sentences that Ge Yun and others said when they discussed the technique in the Tai Su Dharma Assembly: the ancients were externalized but not internalized; the modern people are internalized but not externalized. Hundreds of rivers have different sources, but all flow into the sea.

This is what Ge Yun said when he came out to settle the dispute when two Qigong masters in the pre-Qin period were arguing over two different directions.

At that time, Jiang Youzhi thought that Ge Yun was just trying to smooth things over, and didn't take it seriously. The two sentences he remembered at this time suddenly gave him inspiration.

The opportunity in the dark finally came to Jiang You. He suddenly felt like he had been enlightened. The longevity in his body flowed into his handwriting. Then he opened his eyes and said, "Sword!"

The last pine branch behind him flew into his hand and turned into a sword. He waved it forward casually!

When the lonely peak was cut and the bright moon was hanging high, the sword energy was like water, flowing over the mountains and illuminating the sky.

After the sword was slashed, although the pine wood in his hand was still turned into powder and scattered, Jiang You couldn't stop laughing.

"Since I can't comprehend the Autumn Water Sword Qi, then comprehend the Spring Water Sword Qi. The essence is actually the same, but the form of expression is slightly different. It is externalized but not internalized. All rivers have different sources, but they all return to the sea. It is necessary to follow the time of heaven!"

"Spring Water Sword" is perfected, and the sword energy realm is achieved! At this time, a sword energy seed appeared in his dantian. After absorbing the longevity qi, the sword seed spit out the sword energy.

Jiang You deeply felt the benefits of participating in the Tai Su Fahui. Although he didn't understand what Ge Yun and others said at the time, he remembered it after hearing it. It was like swallowing a golden pill. It couldn't be digested for a while, but as time went by, this golden pill would always be gradually absorbed by him and turned into nutrients to nourish him.

Jiang You sat there alone, watching the milky white sea of ​​clouds slowly illuminated by the morning sun, and listening to the sound of chicken feet coming from afar in the morning breeze.

In the void in front of him, Ge Yun's slightly funny Mediterranean face appeared. Behind him stood other Qi-refining masters, smiling and nodding at him, as if praising him for turning autumn water into spring water and understanding the profound truth of Taoism.

He stood up and bowed deeply to the void, "Thank you all for clearing up my doubts!"

The sky was bright, the turbid air descended, the clear air rose, and the spring breeze was as gentle as the eyes of a lover.

Jiang You smiled, feeling very happy in his heart, with his hands behind his back, he slowly paced on the top of the mountain.

Although he successfully comprehended the Spring Water Sword Qi, the supernatural power: the Demon-slaying Sword Qi did not awaken, but his further understanding of Taoism made him feel happy and like eating nectar.

What's there to be afraid of? Taoism is infinite, and every inch of progress brings joy.

Although the supernatural power did not awaken, Jiang You clearly felt that his connection with the Shengxie Sword had become closer. He waved to the room, and the Shengxie Sword in the scabbard flew out of the bedroom and attached to his back autonomously.

Originally, Jiang You could only call out when the Shengxie Sword was unsheathed. Once the sword was returned to the scabbard, it fell silent. Being able to do this now was the benefit brought to him by the Spring Water Sword Qi.

After the Shengxie Sword was absorbed on the back, the longevity energy in the body flowed into the scabbard of its own accord. After walking around in a circle, when it came back, the longevity energy had transformed into spring water sword energy.

"I didn't expect that the Victory Evil Sword can also transform sword energy!"

If Jiang You hadn't made great progress in swordsmanship and understood the sword energy on his own, he might never have known the efficacy of the Victory Evil Sword in his entire life.

With the help of the Victory Evil Sword to transform, Jiang You has to devote much less energy. With the sword type, the transformation speed is also greatly improved.

He tried to put the Spring Water Sword Qi into the scabbard, and heard a happy sword cry from the Shengxie Sword.

I sensed that the speed of cultivation of the Victory Evil Sword also accelerated.

Jiang You activated the Demon-Slaying Sword Qi at the same time. Two colors, one yellow and one black, appeared on the scabbard at the same time. The two did not reject each other, but the Demon-Slaying Sword Qi began to absorb the sword Qi. After he discovered, Convert the Spring Water Sword Qi with all your strength. After absorbing the Demon-Slaying Sword Qi for a while, it no longer absorbs it. Instead, the black sword light surges. The newly condensed Spring Water Sword Seed flies directly out of the Dantian and is thrown into the Demon-Slaying Sword Qi. .

The sword energy suddenly surged. Under Jiang You's perception, the demon-slaying sword energy became even sharper, and there was an astonishing power gestating in it.

Jiang You checked the sequence text and found that there were indeed three more words after the Demon-Slaying Sword Qi: Awakening.

Jiang You was even more happy when he saw it. It seemed that he was on the right path to use his own sword energy to awaken the magical sword energy. The reason why it has not been awakened yet is that the power of the Spring Water Sword Seed is not enough.

It should be fine when you practice several sword energies in the future!

Jiang You thought to himself and strolled down the mountain.

This is the first time he has gone down the mountain after entering Emei. He will walk around Emei today. If there is no movement from the top management of Emei, he can leave tomorrow.

After Jiang You came down from the mountain, he ran to the valley where the Emei Sect planted spiritual plants. The disciples in the valley didn't know his identity, but those who could enter the Emei Sect were definitely not people with malicious intentions, so no one No matter what, he is just concentrating on doing his own thing.

Jiang You watched carefully how they took care of the spiritual plants, and saw a young man wearing a bamboo hat, holding a hoe and humming to loosen the soil of a spiritual tree. Seeing how hard he was struggling, Jiang You also felt the same. Doubtful, isn’t it just loosening the soil? As for breathing like this?

He leaned over and said, "Brother, are you really loosening the soil?"

The young man looked up at Jiang You and realized that he didn't recognize him, so he didn't say anything and continued to loosen the soil.

"Brother, your health is not good. You are too weak. How can you practice swordsmanship when you are so exhausted after just these two strokes? Young people must exercise restraint!"

Jiang You stood up and said angrily, "You are so annoying. You are not from Emei."

"Well, I'm here to exchange and learn."

The young man didn't know how his sect could still have exchanges and studies during the mountain closure, but these were the matters of the elders and he didn't need to worry about it.

"There is no need to be restrained. The roots of this spiritual tree absorb the spiritual energy in the soil and harden the soil. It is as strong as iron. It is naturally very laborious to dig!"

"Young man, your body is weak. What excuse can you make? I don't believe it anyway!"

"My body is not weak, so don't yell!" The young man turned his head and looked at it. The fellow disciples on the side also looked over at this time, and his face became even redder. "You don't believe it? You don't believe it, dig into it and take a look!" The young man handed the hoe to Jiang You.

Jiang You thought to himself, "Young people are still easy to fool!"

But there is still a questioning expression on his face, "I will dig as long as I want, isn't it just loosening the soil? Look how tired you are!"

After he took the hoe, he noticed that the weight of the hoe was obviously much heavier than ordinary ones. The wood was ordinary jujube wood. It should be that rare metals were mixed into the material of the hoe, and the density became higher, making it heavier.

He dug into the ground with a hoe. As expected, the soil was extremely hard as the young man had said, but under his power, even real pig iron could be dug through effortlessly.

The young man saw that the extremely hard soil in his hands was as soft as tofu under Jiang You's hands. Half of the soil was loosened in two or three strokes.

"No way. Is it really because I am weak? No way. Since practicing swordsmanship, I have long given up on traditional skills!"

The young man saw Jiang You looking so relaxed, and for a moment he began to doubt himself.

"Look, it's just you who's weak, otherwise why would it be so effortless for me to dig it up?"

"Could this person be a hidden master?" The young man still didn't want to believe that he was imaginary, so he began to look at Jiang You's face carefully, "This person is not much older than me!"

“Okay, the soil loosening is done, what’s next?”

"Water after loosening the soil!"

"You don't have a water source here, how do you water it?"

"You don't know this. You are from a small sect. No wonder you want to study in Emei."

"Hehe, my sect is indeed not big."

"Look at me!"

The young man raised his face and took out a yellow paper talisman from his arms. He held the talisman between his two fingers and shook it. There was no need to recite the incantation. The talisman immediately burst into flames. After it burned out, it was three feet above the small tree. , a few white clouds appeared, and a light rain began to fall.

Jiang You caught some rainwater with his hands and found that the rainwater contained some spiritual energy.

"I just thought that the roots of the spiritual tree absorbed spiritual energy and solidified the soil, and now it's raining spiritual energy again?"

"What do you know? Cultivating a spiritual tree is so troublesome. You have to do this every three days!"

"That would consume a lot of talismans. What is this talisman?"

"The small rain talisman is not difficult to draw. It is an entry-level talisman. You don't even know this. What does your sect teach? It can't be a pheasant sect!"

Having said this, the young man was even more proud. Even if it was true that I had no control and was physically weak, the sect I joined was Emei. I will become more and more powerful in the future, much more powerful than you.

Jiang You also gave an envious expression in time and flattered him, "Brother, you are really awesome. You know everything. You are much better than me. You have a bright future!"

Jiang You was often flattered by others in Yama. After listening to it for a long time, he also learned a little bit about it. After flattering him, the young man became even more proud.

Jiang You took the opportunity to say that he came from a small place, and asked the young man to tell him more about the key points of spiritual plant cultivation, so that he could open his eyes, and when he went back, he could show his skills to his fellow disciples and shock them.

The young man gradually got carried away under Jiang You's flattery and began to show off his knowledge endlessly.

While listening to the young man's talk, Jiang You thought to himself, "It's true that there are many things to wear, but flattery never wears out. No wonder those old oilmen in Yama love to flatter people the most."

Just as the two were talking, an outer sect elder who had received Guo Jiangyou walked in quickly from the direction of the inner mountain.

The young man was saying proudly, "Let me tell you, there are many ways to cultivate spiritual plants. They must be based on the physical properties of spiritual plants and cannot be generalized. What I just talked about is just the cultivation method of this cool fruit tree. Our clear and refreshing fruit trees The Miao Tea Tree is different. This Qing Miao Tea Tree is the "

"Cough, cough!"

A sudden cough interrupted the young man. Only then did he realize that there was someone behind him. When he turned around, he saw a middle-aged man with an ashen complexion standing behind him.

"Elder Peng!" The young man saluted quickly, but seeing that the country bumpkin next to him was still indifferent when he saw the elder of his outer sect, he thought, does this country bumpkin not even know the etiquette?

He turned his head and winked at him repeatedly. When he found that Jiang You couldn't see him, he reached out and pulled the corner of Jiang You's clothes.

"Young Master Jiang, you are polite!"

The young man was surprised to find that the elder of his family actually saluted the country bumpkin. "Young Master Jiang? What is the position of Young Master? It sounds like he is very powerful!"

Jiang You then smiled and returned the courtesy: "Elder Peng, what a coincidence!"

"Why is Young Master Jiang so elegant? When you come to the spiritual garden, there is no one accompanying you. These disciples don't know your identity. It would be bad if you are abrupt!"

"I'm just wandering around. I don't dare to waste the valuable time of your disciples. There won't be any rudeness. I get along very well with this frail little brother!"

"My body is not weak!" The young man wailed in his heart. He was just naive, not stupid. At this time, the powerful man didn't understand. The country bumpkin he thought was a big shot with a very high status. He was just making up his own words.

"If you have nothing to do with Elder Peng, please leave it alone. I will chat with this little brother again!"

"Otherwise, I came here specifically to see Young Master Jiang. The leader has been in retreat for the past few days and has not been able to meet him. Today he finally came out of seclusion. When he learned that he had distinguished guests during his retreat, he hurriedly asked me to come over and invite Young Master Jiang to come. A narration.”

"Retreat, haha, I believe you!" Jiang You sneered in his heart. This was because he was noticed after he unleashed his sword energy last night. He knew that he was about to leave, so he couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Okay, please lead the way!"

"Jiang You, just go straight ahead. Jian Qiu is waiting at the bottom of the mountain. I'll have a few words with him!"

"Okay, little brother, apart from being weak, he is still a good person."

In addition to bidding farewell to the elders of the outer sect, Jiang You also deliberately patted the young man's shoulder, "There is a hidden wound in your heart. I just don't feel it now, but it will become a roadblock in your practice in the future!"

The young man was shocked. In order to enter the inner gate as soon as possible, he was eager for quick success and made a dangerous breakthrough. He thought that after the breakthrough, everything would be fine. However, he did not expect that after entering the inner gate, his cultivation speed was slower than those of the same period. Many people came to accept the task of cultivating spiritual plants in exchange for cultivation resources because of this. They didn't expect that there was something wrong with their heart.

At this time, as Jiang You's hand patted down, he felt a warm current entering his body and going straight to his heart. After that, his heart felt warm, and his body suddenly felt much lighter.

"Thank you, young master!" At this time, the young man's resentment at being tricked by Jiang You has completely dissipated, and instead he has a feeling of admiration. Nothing is insignificant compared to his own path, and people are still talking about him in words. If you protect him, Elder Peng won't punish him too harshly later.

After Jiang You helped the young man resolve a hidden injury, he calmly walked towards Jianfeng.

When the young man raised his head again, he saw Elder Peng with a cold expression in front of him.

"How much did you just say?"

"I just told you how to plant cool fruit trees!"

"Just? You've already told me how to cool down the fruit trees, what else do you want to do? If I had come a little later, would you have told me about the core Dharma of my Emei too!"

Elder Peng gave a sharp shout, which made the young man break into a cold sweat and quickly bowed, "Disciple doesn't dare!"

"Don't dare? I think you are very brave. Do you know how much resources I, Emei, have consumed in order to find out this cultivation method? Do you know how much profit they, Yama, have to pay if they want this method? "

Elder Peng was very angry. His family's selection mechanism was extremely strict and his disciples were all top-notch in talent. However, it was these disciples who put all their thoughts on cultivation and were obsessed with swords. These thoughts were too simple. Coupled with the fact that Mount Emei was closed and the disciples could not go down to the mountain to practice, this simplicity almost turned into stupidity.

"Hey, sealing the mountain, sealing the mountain, it's obviously a great struggle, why does the leader have to seal the mountain at this time? I hope they can come to a result this time!"

Elder Peng was determined to punish the young man severely. After all, the fault he had committed was not small, but after all, the secret had been leaked. It was not worth it to ignore what Jiang You said before leaving and hurt Yan Luo's face. Just go with the flow and sell your favors!

"Your Taoist heart is not strong, and someone's words have stirred up your delusional mind. I will punish you with one month's worth of points and three months of facing the wall in the Sword Tomb!"

The young man was overjoyed after hearing this. This punishment was already extremely light, and he immediately accepted the order.

"Everyone in the world says that the people of Yama are extremely treacherous and slippery. This can be seen from the young master of Yama. It seems that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. We in Emei can't be like this in the future!"

When Elder Peng arrived, Jiang You guessed that the senior officials of Emei couldn't wait any longer. He didn't believe that Elder Peng came by chance. As a mature politician, there are no such words as coincidence, just right, and just right in the dictionary. .

Immediately he knew that what he had just done was undoubtedly detrimental to subsequent negotiations, so he was simply asked, is Emei's method of cultivating spiritual plants good? Does Yama have a better one? Since you already know ours, why don’t you also tell us Yama’s method so that we can learn and make progress together.

In that case, if Jiang You says that Yan Luo doesn't exist, he is just here to steal his master, and then there will be more to talk about later.

So Jiang You chose to help the young man resolve his own injuries. As a disciple of Emei, the young man gave him benefits, which was also a benefit to Emei.

Although the value of the two cannot be compared, it is difficult for Emei to use this matter to force Jiang You. Is the disciple's path so insignificant in Emei's eyes?

No matter how the high-level officials of Emei settle the accounts, they cannot say this on the table. Once the disciples know about it, there will be a layer of grudge in their hearts. Compared with this matter, the cultivation of spiritual plants becomes a trivial matter.

Now even Jiang You made Emei suffer a loss.

Since we want to talk about cooperation, Jiang You, as the young master of Yama, is no longer him at this time, and political competition is something that must be done.

From the moment Elder Peng appeared, this game had already begun.

Of course, Jiang You did not resolve the hidden hurts for the young man solely out of political considerations. Since his understanding of Taoism has gradually deepened, he has realized that every drink and peck are cause and effect. He has benefited from the youth, and he has the responsibility to repay him. , to help him avoid subsequent punishment.

This is Jiang You's way of practicing his Tao, and it is also very important to him. Otherwise, his Tao heart will be dusted, and there will be another mental disaster waiting for him in the future.

Moreover, this young man Jiang You really seems to like him. There are not many young men who are so innocent and cute now, and they can only meet them under extreme conditions in Emei. As a person who is at the forefront of the road, I will pour some water for the younger generations. Water is what they should do to let them thrive. This is what Jiang You learned from the academy.

As for whether there are more political considerations or Jiang You's care for his descendants, it no longer matters. Good deeds are judged regardless of heart. As long as the result is good, then you have a clear conscience.

It turns out that there is a couplet rumored among the people, which is said to be from the underworld: If you intend to do good, you will not be rewarded even if it is good; if you do evil without intention, you will not be punished although you are evil.

It's simply ridiculous. When good deeds are done, someone will benefit. If an evil person has the intention to do good, he spares the life of one person in his hands. To you, this person means that he has the intention to do good, but it is not considered a good deed. This person will definitely spit on your face. , if you can, you can also slap a few more big mouths.

If the evil person thinks that his intention to do good is not good, and he kills himself at that time, and it is not you who dies, of course you can stand and talk without pain in your back!

There are too many stupid people in this world, and many of them just follow the crowd. A mediocre person raped a woman because his colleagues in the organization did many evil things. He just stood by and watched. People continued to drink wine and eat meat. Anyway, he didn’t do it himself. He did it unintentionally. If it wasn’t evil, then there would be more than half the number of evil people in the world.

Jiang You walked under the sword peak and saw Gong Jianqiu wearing a green suit and standing with a frosty face.

Jiang You had never seen this woman smile before. She was usually fine, and her facial expressions would make people think she was an iceberg beauty, hard to get close to. Now she was angry, and the coldness on her body had almost turned into substance.

When Jiang You saw it, his thoughts changed and he greeted him with a smile.

The two of them had seen the ceremony, and Gong Jianqiu didn't talk nonsense and just left a cold sentence. "The old man wants to see you, come with me!"

Then without waiting for Jiang You, he flew up with his sword.

"Is it because the process of canceling the mountain closure is not going smoothly?" Jiang You thought to himself, and then jumped into the air, stepped on the clouds, and followed Gong Jianqiu all the way up the mountain.

The two flew to the top of the mountain. Because flying was prohibited above the palace, they got off at the main gate and walked inside.

There were many palaces inside, and the scale was very large. When you walked to the deepest part, you saw a row of Emei disciples kneeling at the door of a hall. There was one person kneeling alone in the front, who should be the leader.

The crowd did not stand up after Jiang You and Gong Jianqiu came in.

There were five big characters with sword energy written on the hall in front: Sword Energy Lingxiao Pavilion.

After Jiang You saw it, he thought it was really Sword Energy Lingxiao, and there was a sword intent on it.

Sword intent is a higher existence than sword energy and sword momentum. Jiang You wanted to take a few more glances to see if he could understand it, and then he heard a laugh from inside.

"Hahaha, is it Young Master Jiang who is here? Please come in quickly. I have heard that Young Master Yan Luo is like a god, and I have always wanted to get to know him. I was not able to receive him immediately during this retreat. I am really rude. I hope Young Master Jiang will forgive me!"

This was said politely, but when the voice came out, it was accompanied by a sharp sword intent that was the same as the handwriting on the plaque, rushing straight towards Jiang You.

The Shengxie Sword on Jiang You was startled by the sword intent, and with a sound of the sword, it was about to be unsheathed, but was calmed down by Jiang You.

"A show of strength?" Jiang You thought in his heart.

Immediately, the dragon's might was released, and the powerful dragon's might was actually defeated by the sword intent.

Under the full force of the dragon's might, this trace of sword intent finally dissipated after consuming most of the dragon's might.

"The sword intent is really terrifying! A trace can consume most of my dragon's might!" Jiang You thought in his heart, but he did not show his fear after all, and took it head-on.

The man kneeling in front seemed to look back in surprise, and it was a handsome man.

"Hahaha, you are indeed a heroic young man. Young Master Jiang, please come in quickly!"
