"The sword in my hand is forged from a meteorite from the sky. The blade is three feet and seven inches tall, and its net weight is seven kilograms and thirteen taels!"
"My sword is forged from thousands of years of cold iron. The blade is three feet and four inches tall and weighs six pounds and eight taels!"
The man in white still looked cold, and his voice was cold as he said again: "Ximen Chuixue!"
"Xue Xiu!"
call out!
The white-clothed figure flickered on the tops of several trees in the forest, then disappeared from Lin Nuo's sight.
They fought without thinking and left without any warning.
At this time, Lin Nuo's heart was filled with shock.
It wasn't the strength of the opponent's swordsmanship that shocked him, but it was that he couldn't imagine why the Ming Dynasty, which originally seemed to him to be just integrated into the Swordsman world view, would have a character like Ximen Chuixue that shouldn't appear in the first place?
This world of the Ming Dynasty, which originally seemed uncomplicated to him, was now full of mystery in Lin Nuo's eyes. No one knew whether some extraordinary figures who could shatter the void would pop up one day!
"The water in this world is a bit deep!"
Sighing in his heart, Lin Nuo suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness. He had easily killed Li Xiuwen's family before. In his opinion, he was considered a master in this world, but now he saw the world among the truly strong.
After fighting, he realized that he was still as weak as an ant.
In the eyes of such an extreme master, killing him is just a matter of casually using a sword!
"Why, do you feel the gap is a bit big?"
Returning to Lin Nuo and tying the sword around his waist again, Xiu'er felt his low mood and asked softly.
"It's a bit!"
Lin Nuo didn't hide it at all. He actually had little interest in the imperial examination. He only took the imperial examination route to improve his luck. Therefore, even if he came second in the high school provincial examination, he didn't show much joy.
But when it comes to martial arts, Lin Nuo is extremely devoted. He likes to practice, he likes the feeling of becoming stronger day by day, and he even likes the arrogant attitude of using one person's power to control the life and death of others, and to look down upon the entire world.
He originally felt that he was a great master, but he didn't expect that he was still very weak in front of the real masters. This huge gap really made him very unhappy.
"That man is Ximen Chuixue, a famous swordsman in the world. He has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child. In the past two years, he has been vaguely known as a swordsman... And how long have you been practicing martial arts? I'll give you another year.
It takes time to grow, and with your cultivation speed and the magical effect of Nine Yang Magic, you should be qualified to fight him head-on!"
After receiving Xiu'er's comfort, Lin Nuo felt a little more comfortable.
He was just an ordinary person in his previous life. Although he has been reborn and has the opportunity to enter the martial arts path, his character in these two lives is only a little stronger than that of ordinary people.
Although he can remain calm in most situations, after all, his martial arts training time is limited, and he is still far from reaching the martial arts realm of a top martial artist who is not afraid of honor or disgrace, nor has he been impatient.
"Lin Nuo, you actually have a very good character. I can see that you don't really value power and wealth, but you are too obsessed with martial arts."
"I don't know whether this kind of persistence is good or bad for you, but I hope that in the days to come, you will not take the wrong path or forget the original intention of practicing martial arts in the first place!"
"The original intention of practicing martial arts?" Lin Nuo was stunned and fell into silence.
Why did he practice martial arts in the first place?
It’s because I like it!
As a man who grew up watching martial arts movies, the opportunity to practice martial arts is right in front of you. Who doesn’t want to become a hero who can travel around the world with a sword and eliminate all injustices?
Perhaps, he wants to practice martial arts, but also has a fear of unfamiliar environments in a strange world, and wants to improve his strength to protect himself.
But in the final analysis, it’s because he likes it!
He likes to practice martial arts, he likes to practice, he likes the pleasure of feeling that his strength is improving every day, and he likes the feeling of being unfettered and focused, and being able to fully devote his body and mind to it.
"Xiu'er, thank you!" This time, Lin Nuo's voice was more sincere than ever.
This time, he understood his true intentions.
I practice martial arts by myself, not because of responsibility or restraint, but because of the purest love.
Since it is something you like to do, why do you need to compare with others? Why do you need to create a gap in your heart?
Just do what you like and enjoy the practice. As for the level of strength you will eventually reach, there is no need to be overly concerned.
After all, I am a man with cheats. As long as you have enough luck, you will be able to achieve breakthroughs!
After the battle was over, the two returned to the carriage again and drove towards Linjia Village. As for the masked men killed by Ximen Chuixue, the two simply chose to ignore them and never looked at them again.
...
"Xiu'er, tell me about the current situation in the Jianghu?" Lin Nuo spoke for the first time on the carriage, wanting to understand the situation in the Jianghu.
Originally, in Lin Nuo's mind, this world was the world of Jianghu, so he didn't care much about the major forces and figures in the Jianghu. After all, he knew those people and things very well in his heart.
But the appearance of Ximen Chuixue today has overturned Lin Nuo's world view. This world is not as simple as it seems on the surface. It is probably a fusion version of multiple martial arts worlds.
"In this world, there are many and complicated forces... Of course, the biggest force now is naturally the imperial court!"
"The current Emperor Hongzhi is a wise and benevolent king. He has not wiped out all the various forces that have arisen in the world. As long as they do not confront the government, the government will not take the initiative to provoke them!"
"Apart from the imperial court, the most powerful force in the world today is naturally the Sun and Moon Sect!"
"The teaching director, Woxing, is an extremely skilled master. He has the magic of attracting stars. Even big sects such as Wudang and Shaolin, which have been officially pardoned by the imperial court, dare not compete head-on! But in the past two years, Woxing seems to have been in seclusion for a long time.
He didn’t show up in the world, maybe there was something wrong with his cultivation.”
Lin Nuo's mind moved. In this case, Ren Woxing may have been imprisoned by Dongfang Bubai, who has practiced the Sunflower Book. Maybe it won't be long before Dongfang Bubai completely controls the Sun and Moon God Sect, and he will officially announce it.
The whole world is over.
"Besides the Sun Moon God Sect, although Wudang and Shaolin have declined in strength, they are still giants. There are countless strong people in them. Even the top masters do not dare to force their way in at will!"
"In addition, the strength of the Five Mountains Sword Sect should not be underestimated, especially Zuo Lengchan of the Songshan Sect. His internal strength is similar to mine. Both of them have half-stepped into the realm of top masters, and their Ice God Palm is even more powerful.
It’s very weird and not easy to deal with!”
"After that, sects like the Qingcheng sect, Kongtong sect, etc. will be nothing more than that. The strongest person in the sect will barely be considered a first-class one and will not be able to make it to the big stage!"
"In addition to these sects, there are also some martial arts families that have been passed down for hundreds of years. For example, Ximen Chuixue, who I met before, is the contemporary owner of the kendo family 'Wanmei Villa'. You have also seen his strength.
I generally belong to the realm of a half-step extreme master. Except for being a little weaker due to the accumulation of internal strength at a young age, in other aspects, I am not weaker than the extreme master at all!"
