The reincarnated swordsman only wants to be a fun person

Tian Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about the last time you fought with me?"

The rat girl lowered her head. "That's for testing. This has been going on for over fifty years."

More than fifty years?

Have these guys been here for so long?

Tian Yi asked curiously, "What are your test criteria? Can you fly a sword?"

The Rat Girl nodded: "The ability to fly swords is the most distinctive. Besides that, there are also those who use talismans, those who cast spells, and those who can break through and transcend tribulations."

Tian Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he asked in surprise: "How many people like this have you met?"

The Rat Girl said, "I am the second generation Rat Girl, and I have been in power for seventeen years. I am not sure how many there were before me, but since I came to power, there have been at least a hundred people."

Are there any hundred people with immortal cultivation characteristics?

If we are talking about imitating Chinese film and television works, it should have started sixteen years ago. After all, the "Gate between the Two Worlds" was opened at that time.

Tian Yi thought for a moment, then asked, "How many forces are looking for the Dao Fruit? What's your relationship with Midnight?"

The Rat Girl replied, "As for our Early Morning Corps, I'm not sure whether the head teacher, the senior sister, junior brother, and junior sister have formed a faction.

We recruited Midnight three years ago. The main reason was that the sect leader's direct disciple fell in love with the daughter of the guild leader. In order to pursue her, he joined Midnight, and the sect leader then took over the organization.

This sentence is so informative.

Tian Yi thought about it and asked, "Did Chi Ruyuan's direct disciple come from outside, or was he recruited from this world?"

The Rat Girl replied, "I collected them from this world. There are three of them in total. They are the eldest brother, the Ox Man, the second sister, the Dragon Girl, and the third sister, the Sheep Girl."

"Zodiac?"

Tian Yi confirmed.

The Rat Girl nodded: "I am the Rat Girl, but I am only a nominal disciple, my status is lower than that of a direct disciple."

Tian Yi looked at the Rat Girl for a while, then asked, "Did he teach you how to cultivate immortality?"

The Rat Girl shook her head: "This world lacks spiritual energy, so it's impossible to cultivate immortality. However, the Master has helped us improve the method of magic cultivation. The strength of our members of the Early Morning Corps is a little stronger than the ordinary magic-level."

Tian Yi: "Has Chi Ruyuan never tried to improve the method of cultivating immortality?"

The Rat Girl said, "I have tried it, but the results were not ideal. The headmaster thought that the improved method of cultivating immortals would become neither fish nor fowl.

Even if we can cultivate immortality, the method of cultivating immortality is not stronger than the path of practicing magic, so we still practice magic."

It seems like this is a trick up his sleeve?

Tian Yi glanced at the sword pattern on the Rat Girl's hand:

——Otherwise, how can this be engraved?

Moreover, it is not difficult to improve the method of cultivating immortals. A disciple of the Jie Tian Sect with such a high seniority must be an old monster. How could such a person be unable to do even this?

Tian Yi immediately had a guess and asked, "Your direct disciple also doesn't practice the method of cultivating immortality?"

The Rat Girl replied, "The Dragon Girl said that they only learned one practice concept, which is to improve the efficiency of practice by adjusting their own emotions and state of mind."

Why does it sound like a ruthless way?

Tian Yi confirmed, "Are those three true disciples usually very aloof? Or perhaps they appear normal, but their behavior leans towards apathy?"

The Rat girl was stunned for a moment. She said, "Only the Dragon girl and the Sheep girl are relatively cold. The Ox man looks very normal, so normal that he seems like he's in love."

Love brain?

Tian Yi's mouth curled up slightly: "So that's how it is. It seems that this Niu man is really a good match for Jietian Sect~"

The Rat Girl wanted to ask what was going on, but she didn't dare to speak.

Tian Yi glanced at her and said, "They practice the ruthless way, which is the same path that the Jietian Sect follows.

This path allows practitioners to achieve faster cultivation efficiency than normal practitioners, but the price is that they will become increasingly indifferent during the cultivation process.

In the end, they are heartless and desireless, and even the death of their loved ones cannot touch their hearts."

Heartless and desireless?

The Rat girl digested it for a moment, then asked, "Then why are Dragon girls and Goat girls different from Ox boys?"

Tian Yi said: "There are many ways to practice the ruthless way. The Jietian Sect found a shortcut in my generation.

That is to take the initiative to love, and then destroy this love with your own hands, so as to follow the right path."

The Rat Girl asked tentatively, "Did you, the Grandmaster, create this?"

"Do not."

Tian Yi said, "On the contrary. After this shortcut came out, I didn't practice and became incompatible with the entire Jietian Sect. If I didn't have a little status and strength, I would probably have been bullied by the sect."

The Rat Girl gradually grew bolder. She asked, "So the reason they all want your Dao Fruit, Grandmaster, is because there's something wrong with that cultivation method?"

"The ruthless path actually has problems."

Tian Yi sighed. "Think about it carefully. Without emotions and desires, is a person still a person? Even if they are, what's the point of living without joy and happiness?"

Hearing this, the Rat Girl became even more confused: "But the Master doesn't seem to have any problems in this regard?"

"That's because he still has something to pursue, and the fire of desire in his heart has not been extinguished."

Tian Yi smiled and said, "His desire to go further maintained the last bit of his emotion.

When he becomes disillusioned, or becomes even more successful, you will see his ruthless and desireless side."

The Rat Girl grasped the key point: "In other words, as long as there is still pursuit, emotions and desires can be retained?"

Tian Yi nodded. "That's right. What I'm talking about is ruthlessness and desirelessness. This is the ultimate manifestation of this path, but in reality, most people can't reach this level."

The Rat Girl asked, "Why?"

Tian Yi said: "There are many reasons. For example, those people in Jietian Sect who practice the ruthless way through shortcuts, they all have some inner demons, and then naturally get stuck in the spirit transformation stage.

Even if there are some who are determined, they will lose the possibility of making further progress because of their unstable foundation.

Others are ruthless just for the sake of being ruthless, but no matter what they do, all they get in the end is numbness.

Rather than being heartless, one's heart is like a clear mirror."

Rat Girl: "Is your heart as clear as a mirror?"

Tian Yi nodded and said, "The true method of practicing the ruthless way is to enter the world, observe the various aspects of time, understand the sufferings of life, and thus transcend these mortal emotions."

He looked at the mouse girl, whose face was full of curiosity, and asked, "You look like you really want to learn?"

The rat girl nodded repeatedly.

Tian Yi shook his head and said, "If you really want to learn, then go find it. The Dao Fruit I left behind contains the complete cultivation method and insights."

The Rat Girl was stunned for a moment, then she asked, "Then where is your Dao Fruit, Grandmaster?"

Tian Yi spread his hands: "I don't know."

Rat Girl: "...Why don't you know?"

Tian Yi asked in return, "Do you know why I reincarnated and started over?"

From the previous conversation, the Rat Girl had already guessed: "Can't stand having no desires?"

Tian Yi smiled and said, "You have a good understanding, that's true. Then, what do you think the fruit of the ruthless way is equivalent to for me?"

Rubbish.

People don’t remember where they throw their garbage and where it will end up next.

The rat girl sighed: "It seems that we have worked in vain."

Tian Yi asked, "Besides looking for people with immortal cultivation traits, how else are you planning to find me?"

The Rat Girl said, "Let's look for Jiuxiao first. Although Chi Ruyuan has no memory of you, the Grandmaster, I'm certain that Jiuxiao must know where you are."

It turned out to be the case.

"That fake Chixiao, and the characteristics of the treasure map on it, are also designed to lure out the other Jiuxiao?"

Tian Yi confirmed.

The Rat Girl was full of admiration: "As expected of the Grandmaster, you discovered our plan right away."

Tian Yi waved his hand: "Stop flattering me. I still have use for you. I won't kill you right now."

...I won't kill you now,

Does that mean he will be killed later?

The rat girl's face suddenly turned pale.

Tian Yi said, "If you help me, I can spare your life. After I'm done with this, I can also help you remove the Heaven-Severing Sword Mark."

A blank check.

The Rat Girl sighed inwardly and asked helplessly, "Grandmaster, I don't have any other choice, right?"

Tian Yi smiled and didn't respond.

The rat girl half-knelt on the ground: "I will follow the orders of the ancestor."

Tian Yi looked at her for a moment and said, "Don't tell anyone until you've confirmed my identity. Remember how I felt just now, and don't try to be clever with me."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Rhodes who had been listening quietly beside him and asked, "Is it enjoyable?"

Rhodes suddenly looked terrified: "Master Tian Yi, I didn't hear anything?"

Tian Yi sneered: "You can even give up the girl you love, how can I trust you to keep my secret?"

He reached out and tapped the boy's forehead, and the latter rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Tian Yi waved at the Rat Girl and said, "I've erased his memory of what happened just now and also set up a surveillance system for you. You can keep him by your side from now on."

The Rat Girl smiled bitterly: "I understand. I will take my leave now."

After saying that, she picked up the boy and dived underground.

Tian Yi also turned into sword light and returned to the flying sword in the clouds.

The ball of light watched the entire process and asked impatiently, "This is unlike you to actually spare his life?"

Tian Yi sighed: "Although the Jietian Sect has severed its ties with Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun, this does not mean that Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun has drawn a clear line with everyone in the Jietian Sect.

In fact, there are still many people who stand on the side of Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun and have never wavered from beginning to end."

Zhu Miao asked in confusion, "Then why don't they go with Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun?"

Tian Yi smiled and said, "Because they also have relatives and friends there, and their relatives and friends also have relatives and friends.

In fact, after practicing the ruthless way for a long time, many people will go to the completely opposite side.

They will become more appreciative of the family and friendships they still have, and some who try to cultivate through shortcuts end up getting themselves into trouble.”

Light Ball: "Are you worried that the person coming this time is someone that Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun cares about?"

Tian Yi nodded: "You can ignore the others, but not one."

Light ball: "Who?"

Tian Yi: "The junior sister of Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun."

Guangtuan: "Do you think that rat girl is that junior sister's person?"

"Do not."

Tian Yi said: "Judging from Niu Nan's training style, it is more like that of my senior brother.

Although that senior brother is not a good person,

But he once helped Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun when he was in danger.

Tianyi Jiangxiao Tianzun also promised that if he chose to die in battle one day, he would leave the Dao Fruit to this senior brother."

Light Group: "It feels like the relationship is very complicated."

“That’s what a debt of gratitude is.”
