Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 369 Sincerity in the way of the sword, life will soon go the wrong way.

Qin Zhiyong drew a saber light with his backhand again, and slashed towards Xiongba.

Only when facing Qin Zhiyong's sword light can he realize how terrifying his sword skills are.

That kind of saber intent to cut everything is terrifying.

No matter what kind of saber technique you practice, with the improvement of your realm, you will gradually approach the essence of "sword".

There is only one purpose of using a knife, which is to separate objects.

Cut in two.

This word perfectly describes the usage of the knife.

Knife skills are actually not mysterious at all, let alone those fancy things,

To put it bluntly, there is only one trick in swordsmanship, which is "cutting".

When one day, Qin Zhiyong's sword can cut through the void, cut off time, and cut off fate, then it will be truly powerful.

Three points of the attack energy of Yuan Qi were divided into two by the knife glow.

Facing this knife, Xiongba could only retreat.

It is amazing to be able to cultivate the sword technique to such a level.

Qin Zhiyong's sword technique is enough to be called the No. 1 sword used in China.Even if the "King Nie Ren" of Beiyin Kuang Saber was resurrected back then, his saber skills could not be compared with Qin Zhiyong.

Until now, Xiongba didn't know that Qin Zhiyong's most powerful martial arts was not boxing but swordsmanship.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Xiongba, your martial arts are a bit outdated. I thought you could change your mind and improve your martial arts attainments after obtaining the health-preserving skills. Unfortunately, I was wrong. People like you don't know how to adapt, and you are stubborn. Ling, you can only keep old. You can't beat me."

Qin Zhiyong's words did not belittle Xiongba.

If it was ten years ago, Qin Zhiyong would feel that Xiongba's martial arts and cultivation methods were relatively advanced, but now, Xiongba is still playing the way he was back then.After Xiongba created the martial art of three-point return to vitality, he didn't make much progress.

Gou Rixin, every day, and every day.

Seeking the Tao requires constantly absorbing new knowledge, and then constantly optimizing it to turn it into one's own wisdom.

Although Qin Zhiyong's practice is strictly in accordance with the Confucian "keeping the middle", he is impartial and nourishes the righteousness in his heart.However, he is always thinking about improving his cultivation techniques, so as to make his practice more efficient while ensuring that there are no sequelae.

Therefore, Qin Zhiyong can innovate and make continuous progress.

Even Qin Zhiyong's health-preserving exercises are constantly "upgrading and updating". The health-preserving exercises he is practicing now are very different from the previous ones.

It's a pity that this is just an update on the "technique" of cultivation.

Spiritual practice is the essence.

Qin Zhiyong didn't see through life and death. Deep in his heart, he still had fear, and he was still afraid of death.

If one day Qin Zhiyong really sees through life and death and overcomes the fear in his heart.Then you have reached the third level of the Confucian state of mind, the state of peace.

In terms of danger, the sword master poses a greater threat to Qin Zhiyong.

The Sword Master's sword intent is too sharp and pure.Eighty percent of Qin Zhiyong's energy was devoted to the Sword Master.

The first sword was blocked by Qin Zhiyong, and the sword master immediately made a second sword.

Qin Zhiyong also drew his sword again.

When the sword glow and the sword glow collided, the forces canceled each other out, and the aftermath that erupted was extremely sharp.This is different from the usual aftermath of stellar qi. Being swept by a sharp qi blade is really fatal.

Even the masters at the level of the major sect masters, in the face of the sharp aftermath of energy, have to back away and avoid its sharp edge.Otherwise, it is possible to be dismembered by the sharp energy.

Nie Feng stared at Qin Zhiyong, and thought to himself: "Mr. Qin's saber skills are really amazing. It's hard to describe in words. I don't know when I will be able to improve my saber skills to his level."

Bu Jingyun focused on the Juggernaut.

"Forget the shape, get the spirit."

Bu Jingyun remembered what Qin Zhiyong had taught him. He didn't memorize the sword master's sword moves, but felt the sword master's sword intent with his heart.

Sword intent is the essence of a sword art.

As long as one comprehends the Sword Intent of the Sword Master, one can learn a lot about the Holy Spirit Sword Art.

Qin Zhiyong and the Juggernaut fought more than 300 moves, and no one could do anything to the other, while Xiongba was like a poisonous snake, whenever he had the opportunity, he would sneak up on Qin Zhiyong.

It's just that Qin Zhiyong's state of mind is deep and his perception is penetrating, how can he make Xiongba's sneak attack successful?

Fighting with knife and sword techniques is the most dangerous and consumes the most mental and physical energy.

The Juggernaut was a little out of breath.

Qin Zhiyong still looked calm and relaxed.

The sword master did not continue to attack, and said: "Impossible. Qin Zhiyong, you and the old man are warriors of the same realm. Why does your power seem to be endless?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "Nothing is impossible. Also, I have never said that I am a martial artist. Qin is a scholar and pursues knowledge. Martial arts is just a knowledge. Sword Master, your swordsmanship is unfeeling and righteous, Just pursuing lethality, your body is already wounded everywhere. If I were you, I would give up my martial arts, stop practicing swords, and rest up my mind, and maybe I can live a few more years."

Swords are sharp weapons, which can not only hurt people, but also themselves.Especially for a pure swordsman like a Juggernaut, in fact, his spiritual will already has a sharp edge.It is a strange thing to live long without the body and spirit being nourished.

Qin Zhiyong had no sword in his hand, nor did he have a sword in his heart.He just used the knife as a tool.Therefore, Qin Zhiyong will not be hurt by his sword intent.

The sword master sneered and said, "This old man has been pursuing swordsmanship all his life, how could he abandon his martial arts and live on in the world because of a little hidden injury in his body?"

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said: "Juvenile Master, your character is resolute, and the spirit of seeking Tao is worth learning for future generations. Unfortunately, you have taken the wrong path. If you want to pursue the way of the sword, you must first be alive. If you die, the way of the sword is for you , it makes no sense. The sharper your sword is, the more benevolent your heart must be. Only with a benevolent heart can you control the sharp sword intent, otherwise, you will kill yourself. Juggernaut, you have already comprehended sword 22. Based on your current If you really realize the sword 23, it will be the time for you to die."

Sword 23, that is the extraordinary sword intent, its sharpness is enough to cut the body and spirit of the Juggernaut full of holes.

Wuming has "benevolence" in his heart, and uses the sword to comprehend the way of heaven, and has reached the realm of the heavenly sword.The nameless path is the right path.

Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness.

Why can't the Five Constants of Confucianism be messed up, and benevolence should be put first?There is a reason.

Laozi once said: I have three treasures, one is compassion, the other is frugality, and the third is not daring to be the first in the world.With these "Three Treasures", one will be free from disease and calamity, and have a good death.

Benevolence and compassion are the essence of Confucianism and Taoism.

Everyone knows the truth, but it just can't be done.

It is easy to get the Tao, but difficult to practice it.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Sword Master, if we continue to fight, you will not have the advantage. After all, you are old and your body is weakening. Qin is not your enemy. If you tell me something about the situation, Wushuang City will perish. At that time, your Dugu family was in danger of being wiped out. Of course, if you want to continue fighting, I can accompany you."

The Juggernaut's gaze flashed, and he hesitated in his heart.

Qin Zhiyong knew that as long as the Juggernaut hesitated, this battle would not continue.

Once the will is shaken, it is almost impossible to stabilize the spirit and move forward indomitably.

Xiongba said loudly: "Sword Master, don't listen to Qin Zhiyong's sweet talk. He is a scholar, and he is the best at telling tricks. He sells martial arts cheats everywhere, and he is digging the foundation of the major forces in China. If you don't get rid of him, the Chinese martial arts will last forever." No peace."

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said: "This is true. I sell martial arts secret books, and the people who benefit the most are the common people. The major sects and forces will definitely be impacted. I never deny this, but that is a matter of the future. There is time to make corresponding changes and countermeasures. If the Juggernaut is wounded by my sword, Wushuang City will be destroyed by the Tianxia Guild at the flick of a finger. How to choose, the Juggernaut is up to you."

Qin Zhiyong convinced the Juggernaut.

Because Qin Zhiyong was telling the truth.

The truth is often convincing, this is the so-called facts speak louder than words.

Qin Zhiyong just used the most superficial principles in "Game Theory", and the Sword Master himself will choose between the strengths of the relationship.

The Sword Master took a deep breath and said, "Qin Zhiyong, you have seen Wuming's inexplicable swordsmanship, tell me, is Wuming still alive?"

Qin Zhiyong said: "That's right, Wuming is still alive. He is a martial arts legend, and he has reached the realm of Heavenly Sword, but he will not die so easily."

The Juggernaut said: "Thank you for telling me. The old man bid farewell."

Before he finished speaking, the Juggernaut disappeared as if turning into a beam of sword light.The sword master's lightness kung fu and agility are enough to be compared with Qin Zhiyong.

The speed of a swordsman cannot be underestimated.

The Juggernaut left, Xiongba was a little scared.

He never expected that he would have a day of cowardice even if he is dominant.

Qin Zhiyong said kindly: "Xiong Ba, with Qin's martial arts, it is easy to destroy the Tianxiahui. However, I don't want to do this. I will give you another three days, and you send the money to Vientiane Bookstore. Otherwise , I will come to Tianxiahui again."

When Qin Zhiyong left, he didn't use light kung fu and physical skills like the Juggernaut, he walked slowly down the Tianxiahui as if he was taking a walk.

Xiong Ba stared at Qin Zhiyong's back, his face livid.

Since dominating the Jianghu, Xiong Ba has never been ashamed as he is today.

All the leaders have admiration for Qin Zhiyong.

When you have the absolute upper hand, you can still be forgiving and forgiving, not everyone can do it.

Qin Zhiyong's mind and bearing are at least three grades higher than Xiongba's.

Xiongba said angrily: "Qin Zhiyong, how dare you humiliate the old man like this. One day, the old man will kill you."

…………

Shopkeeper Wan is not in the mood to do business.It wasn't until Qin Zhiyong came back that he was completely relieved.

"Boss, you're back. That's great." Shopkeeper Wan said.

Qin Zhiyong said: "I said before, Xiongba can't deal with me. From now on, we will do business in an upright manner, and we don't have to be afraid of the world making things difficult for us."

Shopkeeper Wan nodded and said, "That's good. That's good."

Shopkeeper Wan's current mentality is completely different from before.With a boss like Qin Zhiyong protecting him, there is nothing to be afraid of.

That night.

Elders from three sects quietly came to Vientiane Bookstore to ask Qin Zhiyong to buy "Health Preservation".
