Those who fell behind were beaten, and those who were weak were beaten brutally, day after day, every day, for seven days in a row.

On this day, Lin Xiao's consciousness once again entered the sea of ​​consciousness, which was irresistible because he couldn't resist even if he wanted to.

Lin Xiao looked as if he was hopeless, like a salted fish that had fallen on the shore and been exposed to the sun.

It's up to you to do whatever you like.

Anyway, if we can't fight and there's no hope at all, then we won't fight.

Because you will be beaten regardless of whether you draw a sword or not, so let's just beat him. It won't kill you anyway, so you can just do whatever you want.

Lin Xiao simply closed his eyes, because it felt more ritualistic to be beaten like this.

However, after waiting for a while, he didn't feel the slightest bit of severe pain. He couldn't help but open his eyes and stared away, and saw a red shadow standing in front of him, with a pair of extremely cold and indifferent eyes staring at him.

"Aren't you going to fight?" Lin Xiao was stunned and asked.

"Do you want to be beaten?" Hongying's eyes were indifferent, his tone was cold, and another red sword appeared in his hand.

"I don't want to." Lin Xiao's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and he said quickly, while quickly retreating. Although he knew that retreating was useless, this was an instinctive reaction. If he could avoid being beaten, he would not be beaten, and he was not a masochist.

"Senior is... the third sword master?" Lin Xiao looked at the other party and asked tentatively.

"You... have the heritage of Shenxiao Mountain." Hongying said, which was also a disguised response to Lin Xiao.

The third sword master!

"I..." Lin Xiao's mind went blank for a moment and he didn't know how to respond.

Have the legacy of Shenxiao Mountain!

In one word, it was so heavy that Lin Xiao almost suffocated.

"What do you think a sword cultivator should be like?" Hong Ying asked again.

"I..." Lin Xiao started to speak, but couldn't say anything. His thoughts were confused and his mind went blank.

What should sword cultivation look like?

Can't answer.

Originally, he thought that he had a clear and profound understanding of sword cultivation, but at this moment, Lin Xiao found that he could not say anything, as if his previous knowledge was useless and completely blank.

This discovery made Lin Xiao's face suddenly turn pale.

"What Shenxiao Mountain inherits is the way of sword cultivation, not the way of swordsmen. Your path... is wrong..." Hong Ying's words rang out again, and the cold and faint sword immediately caused Lin Xiao

A devastating blow.

Wrong go!

Is my way of the sword going wrong?

Lin Xiao felt confused for a moment and subconsciously said: "Then... is there any need to rescue him?"

"It's not too late." Hong Ying responded, and Lin Xiao subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be nice to be able to save him.

But, how did it go wrong?

Lin Xiao didn't understand.

"What is the difference between a swordsman and a sword cultivator?" Hong Ying asked again.

Lin Xiao couldn't answer again.

It seems like a very simple question, but I just can’t answer it.

What is the difference between a swordsman and a swordsman?

think!

Lin Xiao racked his brains and kept thinking.

Hong Ying did not speak, but looked at Lin Xiao quietly, her eyes still indifferent and arrogant.

"A swordsman... a swordsman's sword is a tool..." Lin Xiao suddenly said: "A swordsman's sword... is life..."

The words paused again, because the thoughts were intermittent, not so clear, and difficult to connect into one piece.

Lin Xiao became increasingly confused.

What is a swordsman?

What is swordsmanship?

I originally thought I understood it, but now I find that I don't understand it, not at all. It seems that all the years of sword practice have been in vain.

It turns out that I have never really understood...swords.

"I use your power and your sword to strike far better than you. Why?" Hong Ying asked another question that gave Lin Xiao a headache.

Why?

Isn't it because the swordsmanship is too advanced?

Lin Xiao was confused.

However, Lin Xiao thought carefully, closed his eyes, and carefully recalled the battle in the valley, especially the swordsmanship performed by the opponent with his own body, his own strength, and his own sword. Every sword was

So simple, but the power of each sword is so powerful.

So why?

remember!

think!

In the space of the sea of ​​​​consciousness, the passage of time could not be felt. Lin Xiao kept thinking and recalling very carefully, and his whole person seemed to be involved in it.

"Is it...will...sword intention?" Lin Xiao closed his eyes, and after a long time, he spoke with a somewhat rhetorical question.

"What is sword intent?" Hongying asked again.

"Isn't the meaning of the sword the true meaning of the sword?" Lin Xiao also asked.

In cognition, the so-called sword intention is the true meaning of the sword, and then it is upgraded to the realm of the sword, and then it is the rules of the sword.

"Are you stupid?" Hong Ying's voice was faint and faint, making Lin Xiao's expression suffocate.

"The sword's intention is the sword's intention." Hong Ying said again.

Lin Xiao was at a loss again.

Sword intention is sword intention?

Does the meaning of the sword have nothing to do with the true meaning of the sword?

Are we talking about the same topic?

"Where is your sword intention?" Hongying asked again.

One question after another completely confused Lin Xiao's thinking.

My...sword intent?

"The swordsmanship in the world is nothing but strength, speed, sharpness, and will. And I, Shenxiaoshan, am the leader of the swordsmanship in the world. I have the utmost strength, speed, sharpness, and intention, but you...have none of the same." Hong Ying said coldly.

, his words were full of contempt: "Your sword is too weak, too slow, and too blunt."

"What else?" Lin Xiao asked subconsciously.

Aren't we talking about extreme strength, extreme speed, extreme sharpness and extreme intention? Too weak corresponds to extreme strength, too slow corresponds to extreme speed, and too dull corresponds to extreme sharpness. So what corresponds to extreme intention?

"What is your sword intention?" Hongying asked again.

Lin Xiao couldn't answer.

Since the sword intention is not the true meaning of the sword, then what is your sword intention?

I have never thought about it, because I have always thought that the true meaning of the sword is the sword intention. After all, the true meaning of the sword is a general term, and the sword intention is an abbreviation. There is nothing wrong with explaining it this way.

But now I tell myself that the meaning of the sword is not the true meaning of the sword and has nothing to do with the true meaning of the sword.

What exactly is the meaning of the sword?

Lin Xiao suddenly felt that after practicing swordsmanship for many years, he seemed to have become lonely.

"Senior, please tell me, what is sword intention?" Lin Xiao asked in a solemn voice, not ashamed to ask, as a person should behave.

"Faith." Hong Ying did not pretend to be mysterious, but said very directly: "Why do you practice swordsmanship? Why do you swing the sword? That is your faith. The combination of your faith and the sword is the sword's intention."

"My Shenxiao Mountain sword is the ultimate in the world and is indestructible. It is also based on a belief." Hong Ying said: "No matter how much I tell you, it is useless. You... have strayed far away from Shenxiao Mountain's sword path.

The high road, but you have taken a small road without realizing it."

"Senior, please teach me." Lin Xiao's tone became more solemn.

In fact, Lin Xiao had also doubted that Shenxiao Mountain, one of the top forces in the Sea of ​​Chaos, was a giant, if the fifth sword master had not deceived him.

Then, after receiving the inheritance from Shenxiao Mountain, I should be very powerful, but in fact, compared with the same realm, I am indeed not weak, or even very strong, but I always feel that it is not enough.

It seems that I feel sorry for Shenxiaoshan’s great reputation.
