Chapter 471: Once in a millennium, we will meet again and we will be strangers
“Is there anything wrong with freedom?”
"There is nothing wrong with being born free."
"Then why can't the Eldar step out of the desert?"
"..."
“Is there anything wrong with freedom?”
"There is nothing wrong with what you think."
"Are all the mistakes that arise for freedom also correct?"
"Wrong is wrong, but not being wrong doesn't mean it is right..."
"I don't understand!"
"You understand, freedom is wrong."
"Why?"
"Because your existence is wrong..."
…
Before the cry could be conveyed, the strong evil energy had already exploded——
"boom--!!!"
Sword Lord, Ju Que, and Black Lotus Sword Demon were trapped in the small space of three peaks. It was difficult for them to escape in time, and they were swallowed up by the explosion almost at the same time!
"Hahahaha!! Hahahaha!!! There is no one in the world, only evil is heaven! Only evil is heaven!!!"
During the explosion, the evil force swept out. The sword master heard the still arrogant laughter at the last moment when he lost consciousness...
“Is there anything wrong with freedom?”
【Born free, when it falls into dust, it becomes bound; although there is nothing wrong with it, there is no real freedom in the world. 】
"Why? I don't understand why there is nothing wrong with freedom, but I am wrong!!"
[There is nothing wrong with freedom, and there is nothing wrong with you; what is wrong is your persistence.]
"Is it wrong to be persistent?"
[There is nothing wrong with persistence, but persistence in the wrong direction is obsession.]
"I don't understand...I don't understand!!"
[It’s not that you don’t understand, but that you don’t want to accept the fact that you already understand...]
"Then tell me! What is it that binds freedom?!!"
[What cannot be let go in the heart, what cannot be loosened by the hands, what cannot be stopped under the feet, what cannot be taken off the shoulders, and what cannot be forgotten in the mind, these things constrain freedom. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with freedom, but a truly free person cannot
If you don’t know that you are already free, can you let go of all this? For the freedom in your heart.]
"Hahahaha! I can't let it go! I can't let it go!! It turns out that in the end, it's my fault alone! It's my fault!!"
Life is precious, and freedom is even more valuable; but if the price of freedom is to give up all emotions, memories, dreams and thoughts, is such freedom worth it?
Pursuing the ultimate freedom all your life, for the sake of freedom, you walked out of the desert, but can you walk out of the world? Even if you walk out of the world, can you jump into the world?
If one day he does this, who can share this joy of freedom with him?
If such a day comes, will he think of that little desert past that is so small that he can hardly see it in the vast world? That person in his heart, that handful of sand, that familiar road, that weightless feeling
The memory that was not heavy, I woke up again at this time: It was myself who personally ruined the freedom I pursued, and went to pursue what I had already obtained, and now, nothing can go back.
"I was wrong..."
Nine thousand years of resentment and obsession, now I finally wake up with one word.
It turns out that I don’t blame the common people, I only teach idiots how to return home.
The evil master's obsessive resentment, which had persisted for nine thousand years, finally cleared up right and wrong at this moment, and reconciled wrongs and right. He was tired and realized it. Now, he only hopes to leave a trace of redemption for his past sins.
hope--
"Sword Lord, you are the only person in the world who can catch up with the footsteps of the ancestors of the spirit race. I have made too many mistakes in the past. Death is a gift from God to me, but my mistakes will not be made because of my death.
Any change... All I can do is give you this power that has been passed down through the ages, hoping that one day I can help you rectify the world... Never let the tragedy of the Spirit Clan happen again... This is my last wish.
, I hope you will accept it..."
Without waiting for the Sword Lord to respond, a force containing the most mysterious law of time in the world melted into the Sword Lord's mind. Suddenly, the endless vicissitudes of life contained in the law made the Sword Lord feel filled with pity.
【Sword Lord will definitely live up to his trust.】
"With your words...I feel relieved...haha..."
In the dust, a figure leading to the afterlife gradually fades away, and it seems that you can still hear the calm words of each step in the world:
"Throw away yourself, forget your freedom, go to the next life with good and evil in your body, but when you leave, this life is already full of sorrow; thinking about God's will, Tao is ruthless, right and wrong are boundless, the heart is the boundary, the soul continues, but it is a stranger in this life - finally wake up, I am not alone in heaven!
Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Still arrogant and arrogant, still long-cherished for heaven, but at this time, there is no trace of compulsion or persistence. There is only a state of mind that is calmly stepping into the past life. In the next life, I must live up to heaven and earth...
…
"噌-噌-噌--!"
The space of the three peaks dispersed, and three sword shadows flew out, standing with swords in the air——
"It's strange, why did the evil master detonate the evil energy, but it didn't have any power at all?" Ju Que asked curiously when he noticed that he was not damaged at all.
"Perhaps, he is just a powerful man at the end of his rope." Black Lotus Sword Demon said disdainfully.
[The evil master has passed away, I still have important matters to do, so I will take my leave first...] Sword Lord looked melancholy, and after saying goodbye, he went straight to the desert...
…
In the south of the desert, above Tiansha City, Sword Lord told Yu Yin and other members of the Spiritual Tribe about the evil master's awakening and death.
"The death of the Evil Lord is a good thing for the Spiritual Clan, but the Evil Lord was born in the Spiritual Clan and can be regarded as the ancestor of our Spiritual Clan. The Spiritual Clan will place him in his place to comfort the virtues of our ancestors... But there is one thing
Things..." Yu Yin decided, and at the end of her words, she looked at Dongfang Fan, and finally knelt down.
[What does this mean? Get up quickly.] Jianjun was stunned for a moment and stepped forward to help him.
"I can't get up. Mr. Jianjun worked hard for our spiritual clan and even risked his life to kill the evil master. I had previously set up a killing plot against him. I feel guilty about this. Only in this way can I express Yu Yin's sincerity in apologizing. Please
Sword Lord, I forgive you!" After Yu Yin said this, the twenty sword attendants behind him all knelt down and bowed their heads to the Sword Lord to apologize.
The Sword Master didn't say anything else, he just turned around and stepped out of the Tiansha Palace. Even with the fame behind him, he couldn't stop walking on the long road to the world...
In the eastern part of the desert, Can Jian met the mysterious demon in the past. On this day, Sword Lord was walking there, wanting to get out of the desert and return to Night City. Unexpectedly——
"The Immortal Sword Master is so majestic..."
A snorted compliment, but full of ridicule. The sword master fixed his eyes, but saw a swordsman standing alone in the wind and sand. His figure disappeared and appeared, like a fantasy, but it was real.
On-the-ground existence and that small area.
[This figure is... The Way of Ten Thousand Swords!] The sword master's heart trembled, with both excitement and doubts in his heart: What was exciting was that he actually met the strong swordsman from nine thousand years ago, what was confusing was that the other party
Why does it appear at this time?
"Kill my people and seize my clan's treasure. Do you think you can still leave the desert alive?"
[It is to save, not to kill, to gain, not to take away. If I am really charged with this crime, senior, you will be my accomplice.]
"Hahaha! You are worthy of the word 'Sword Master'!" The figure suddenly laughed heartily. Turning around, Sword Master finally saw the true face of the Way of Ten Thousand Swords.
A flawless swordsman is just like a flawless divine sword. He possesses an extraordinary sword spirit. You will know that he is extraordinary as soon as you see his appearance!
"Your sword skills are rare in my life. There is no sword in your heart, and you can't put the sword in your hand. Therefore, although every move you make is peerless, it can only be fleeting, because after one move, you have forgotten the move.
...Such a way of forgetting the sword makes me curious...Furthermore, you have no swordsmanship at all, and all the sword moves are caused by the spirituality of the sword. This is a great loss to the sword itself.
, but the sword of the world is willing to accept the sacrifice, and it is almost like treating you as the king of the sword. I am really curious: what is the state of the sword of the world in the eyes of the sword king..."
The Sword Lord was secretly shocked. The Way of Ten Thousand Swords analyzed his sword technique 99% thoroughly. Most people would hardly notice that the Sword Lord had lost his sword skills, but the Way of Ten Thousand Swords said it as soon as he appeared.
Got the truth.
[The younger generation is not talented. He once had a glimpse of the entire Sword Jue Realm, and then vaguely introduced a new level to a new level. However, he later lost all his cultivation due to physical limitations. Only his ability to understand and control the sword was better than before...
...It’s just that my memory of the sword is very short. I have completely forgotten all the sword moves and sword styles in the past. I hold the sword because I only have the sword in my hand, but my heart is empty. As my predecessor said, there is no sword in my heart. I’m afraid it’s...
Because my body no longer remembers the feeling of the sword in my heart... But the junior believes that as long as the cultivation level does not hinder the concept of correcting the world, it is insignificant. However, the senior said that the sword moves of the junior will cause damage to the sword itself.
The juniors don’t know, so they still ask the seniors for advice!]
Seeing the Lord Sword's humble pursuit of knowledge, Wan Jianzhidao responded lightly, and then said: "People have lifespan, and the same is true for swords. People have life force. When life force stops, their life span ends. Swords have spiritual power, and the spiritual power dissipates."
Although the body of the sword is still there, the soul is dead. Your sword moves all consume the spiritual power in the sword. The spiritual power of ordinary swords is limited and cannot be restored. However, some famous swords have spirituality, and this spirituality can be reflected in the spirit.
When the power is depleted, it automatically absorbs the creation of heaven and earth and renews the spiritual power; if you were not holding Zi Ming, I'm afraid the sword would have died long ago and gone to bed."
[This...why haven't I felt like this before...]
"It's not your fault. You are born in this world and you don't know yourself, so how can you deal with the sword? Besides, if you forget the way of the sword, you may have forgotten it before you noticed the abnormality, so you will naturally not be able to detect it... But you have to
Remember: if you notice a 'sword pattern' appearing on the sword, the immediate move is approaching the limit of spiritual power. At this time, if the move is made, the sword will be destroyed!" The Way of Ten Thousand Swords emphasized the tone of the word "destroy", making it
Sword Lord keeps this information in mind.
[Senior, I dare to ask: What is the sword pattern? 】
"All living things have the texture of life. The texture of vegetation is on the body, the texture of human beings is on the palms, the texture of animals is on the skin, and the texture of the sword lies in the soul of the sword. A sword that will sacrifice its soul will have its sword patterns appear on the body.
The sword is three inches below the jaw, and the more complex the sword pattern is, the more powerful the spiritual power it contains. With your way of forgetting the sword, I am afraid that the sword patterns you will see in the future are far better than mine... That's it.
It's useless to say any more... I hope you will be kind to Zi Ming..." The figure of Wan Jian Zhi Dao gradually disappeared. Although the sword master still had many doubts in his heart, he had no way to ask.
[The Way of the Forgotten Sword...could it be...the Supreme Technique?]
