Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 169 A Glimpse

Crossing the border to kill the enemy is not a rare thing.

The Qi Refining Realm kills the Spirit Transformation Realm, and the Spirit Transformation Realm defeats the Return to Void Realm. There is no need to look for these plots in the storybooks. Yun Yi himself has done many of them.

But I have never heard of any legend about people from Fanxu Realm crossing the border to kill people from Hedao Realm.

Among the six realms of cultivation, there is a well-known saying that the six realms are divided into the upper three realms and the lower three realms.

Refining Qi, transforming into spirit, and returning to emptiness are only the lower three realms, the foundation for attaining enlightenment and becoming an immortal, the insignificant first three steps.

The three upper realms, namely, harmony with the Tao, ascension, and immortality, are the real ways to attain the Tao and become an immortal.

The reason this statement is rarely mentioned is because the vast majority of people remain in the lower three realms. Therefore, the six realms are grouped together to make ascending to immortality seem less far-fetched.

But no matter what, one fact cannot be concealed, that is, the gap between the upper three realms and the lower three realms is as far apart as heaven and earth, and as different as heaven and earth.

Not to mention that one person in the Return to Void Realm trying to kill a person in the Hedao Realm, even ten people in the Return to Void Realm cannot do it.

What's more, in addition to having a strong physical body, the person in the Hedao realm is also one with the Dao. If one wants to kill him completely, one must also erase the Dao, which is not something that the Fanxu realm can do.

Therefore, when the sword servant met the master of the Hedao realm, he was doomed to have no chance of winning.

The sword servant said slowly, "At that time, I was being hunted by that Hedao Realm cultivator. He could have killed me directly, but he chose not to. He let me escape in a panic, seriously injured. It seemed that only this would make him feel better.

"Every debt has its perpetrator. I've already killed the man who murdered my master and his wife, but I just can't let it go. Although revenge never ends, everything has a source.

"My death can indeed be the end of this hatred, putting an end to it all. Because I have no descendants, let alone disciples, no one will avenge me. Once I'm dead, I'm dead."

Yun Yi couldn't help but sigh, thinking that there was no difference between the mountains and the plains, and that people in the cultivation world were no different from those in the martial arts world.

No one can let go of hatred, and everyone hopes to end a bad relationship with the death of others.

And I am the same. How can it be so easy to escape from hatred?
Wang Shenlai said, "He could have killed you, but he deliberately didn't. Is that why something unexpected happened?"

The sword servant nodded. "Later, I fled to a grassland and happened to run into a passing He Dao Realm sword immortal. He didn't want to intervene, but he happened to see me being beaten to pieces by my enemy and heard him tell me the origin of this feud."

Yun Yi: "Is there something else hidden?"

"I originally thought the cause of these killings was that I should never have developed feelings for my junior sister. If it hadn't happened, my junior sister would probably have married that beast, and the sect wouldn't have suffered such a drastic change."

"But this is not the real cause?"

"My master and his enemy have always had a grudge against each other. Now that he has reached the Hedao Realm and disdains to take action, he has arranged for his disciple in the Fanxu Realm to kill his old enemy. Haha, he feels relieved when his disciple kills his former opponent."

"Then you killed his favorite disciple."

The sword servant laughed heartily. "So he wants to kill me, but at the same time, he wants to leave me a way out. The condition is that I become his disciple and become his last disciple from now on. Haha, this is ridiculous!"

Wang Shenlai curled his lips and said, "Sometimes it's really hard to understand what people in the Hedao realm are thinking. Is there something wrong with their brains from practicing cultivation?"

He said this not only to the sword servant and the Hedao realm in his story, but also to his father Zhu Yong.

Yun Yi felt the same way. In his opinion, Song Xinci was also a rather difficult person to understand. It seemed that in order to achieve harmony with the Dao, cultivators were forced to integrate their own values ​​into the Great Dao, thus becoming increasingly extreme in their behavior.

The sword servant continued, "The Hedao Realm master who passed by was a nosy sword immortal. He listened to my enemy's account of the cause of this tragedy. The more he listened, the angrier he got, and he actually stayed." Yun Yi: "He wanted to save you?"

"No, he wants to learn the other party's avenue."

There was a strange look in the sword servant's eyes, as if the scene he saw that day reappeared before him.

That was the first time he saw a fight between people in the Hedao realm, so he was naturally very excited.

I thought that when gods fought, the little ghosts would suffer, but I didn't expect that there were also differences in levels within the Hedao realm.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew across the vast grassland, blowing up millions of blades of grass, many of which hit the sword servant's face, body, and even heart.

Then the wind stopped and everything was quiet.

There was a lone wild goose flying south in the sky. It let out a soft cry, and the sound spread in all directions.

The man in front of him also drew his sword accompanied by the cry of wild geese.

The wild geese in the sky seemed to have seen something terrifying, startled and flew away. And before the Sword Immortal of the Hedao Realm, a huge chasm over a hundred meters long and about thirty feet wide appeared with this sword!
With just one sword move, he created an abyss of unfathomable depth!

A glimpse!
The enemy was also at the Hedao realm. Although he tried his best to fight with his life, he was unable to block the sword, and both he and the Dao perished.

Wang Shenlai applauded and said, "What a dashing swordsman!"

Yun Yi suddenly realized: "So, Senior has been staying in Zongheng Tower for many years just to find out the identity of this Sword Immortal?!"

The sword servant said, "Indeed, my benefactor came and went in a hurry, never paying any attention to me. But I remember his swordsmanship and will never forget it. Even though I have practiced hard for a hundred years since then and found my own path, I still can't forget it for a long time!"

Yun Yi: "You are not here to repay a favor, you just want to find out the origin of that sword."

"I want to know who he is, and how to perform a sword like that. Apart from that, there is nothing else in this world worth my attention!"

"Let's drink this cup!" Yun Yi was excited after hearing this. He snatched the bottle of wine from Wang Shenlai, clinked it with the sword servant, and drank the cup together.

Wang Shenlai suddenly became anxious: "Leave some space for me, leave some space for me."

The sword servant said, "The sword is a deadly weapon, and the great principles associated with it are mostly related to killing. However, it is extremely difficult for those who are obsessed with revenge to reach the highest level."

Yun Yi: "Because revenge can only temporarily improve people, but if it lasts too long it will only lead to their downfall."

"The great way is endless. Revenge is but a minor path compared to it. Once the person you want to kill is dead, where will the hatred go?"

“So hatred is only the motivation for people to keep going, but it can never become the path they walk on.”

The sword servant suddenly found Yun Yi much more pleasing to the eye, and felt that he could be a close friend. "You have now seen a lot of sword techniques. To put it bluntly, they are all ways to kill people, but the methods are different."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yi fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time.

Wang Shenlai and Jian Pu were silent upon seeing this and just drank in silence.

After a moment, Yun Yi sighed, "My wife is trapped by the sword energy. I practice swordsmanship to cure her illness and relieve her suffering... Senior said that all swordsmanship in the world is about killing people. Is it true that there has never been a way to save people?"
