Gu Changqing looked at the white-robed cultivators and was moved.
To him, this scene was simply too surreal. He had never imagined that one day he would be able to enter a sect and receive teachings from others.
The old man noticed Gu Changqing's expression and said lightly,""These are all disciples of my Sword Sect and also my disciples.”
"However, they are only in name. You are my only direct disciple. The sword path that I cultivate is rather harsh, so I've roamed the world for half my life, but I only value you.”
"My Tian Ji Sect has nine small sects. As for which nine, you don't need to know. Sword Sect was one of them, and they were responsible for guarding the mountain.”
Then.
The old man waved his hand, and the disciples who were practicing their swordsmanship in the distance flew over.
He landed at the foot of the steps and bowed,""Greetings, Master."
The old man nodded and pointed at Gu Changqing,""This person is the personal disciple I took in when I traveled the mortal world. He is also your senior brother.”
The cultivators below the stage were stunned.
Everyone knew that their master had extremely high standards. No matter how stunning a prodigy was, they could not enter their master's eyes.
However, he didn't expect that he would actually take in a personal disciple.
"This person is young and looks like a beggar. Why would teacher accept him as our senior brother?”
"That's right. Look at him. He doesn't have the elegance of a Swordsman. He's holding a chopper. Could it be that Teacher picked up a woodcutter from the mountains?”
The group of cultivators whispered and mocked.
However, facing his teacher's words, he did not dare to disobey. He immediately bowed perfunctorily,"Greetings, Senior Brother."
Gu Changqing had tasted the warmth and coldness of the human world since he was young. Naturally, he did not care about these voices and returned the greeting lightly.
"You can go."
The old man dismissed everyone.
He looked at Gu Changqing and said," You don't have to care about these words. In this world, strength is respected. When you have enough strength, you can naturally shut them up."”
"Every year, my Sword Sect will hold a Dao discussion contest. I'll give you ten years. If you still can't suppress your fellow disciples, then your master-disciple relationship with me will end.”
......
The old man led Gu Changqing to a pavilion.
He pointed at the ancient books in the attic."These are all sword techniques I created when I was young, as well as some insights into the Dao of the Sword.”
"Ordinary disciples can't enter this world, but you can browse freely.”
"However, I still have to warn you. No matter how good the comprehension of other people's sword techniques is, they can't compare to your own. Only by comprehending one's own Sword Dao would it be the most suitable for oneself.”
"Swordsmen cultivate an invincible sword heart. Being rigidly bound to the sword moves will only make your body feel rigidly bound. If you want to become a peerless sword cultivator, you need to walk your own path.”
"I can guide you in the Dao of the Sword and help you avoid detours, but there are still many paths that you need to explore on your own.”
Gu Changqing listened carefully to the old man's teachings.
He knew that these words were extremely valuable experience and would be of great help to him.
"Forget it. No matter how much I say, you won't be able to understand it at this moment. You should first follow the basic cultivation techniques and raise your Sword Dao to the rudiments. If there's anything you don't understand, you can naturally ask me.”
Then, the old man left Gu Changqing in the attic.
Gu Changqing stared at the dazzling array of secret manuals, his eyes burning.
His heart was beating fast.
His dead heart was completely revived at this moment.
The blood feud between his parents, the sister he needed to protect, and the oath he made when he parted with Jiang Minghuang gave him ten thousand reasons to become stronger.
"Emperor Ming, in the future, the two of us will meet at the peak.”
Gu Changqing took a deep breath.
He bowed deeply in the direction the old man had left."Evergreen, thank you, Master."
Outside the window, the old man heard the voice in the pavilion. He paused and glanced at the pavilion with a faint smile on his face.
There was a profound meaning in that smile.
......
In the following days, Gu Changqing began to read ancient books day and night.
He was not in a hurry to cultivate.
Just as his master had said, sword cultivators cultivated their own path.
He wanted to establish his own path the moment he entered the Sword Dao and lay a good foundation for his Sword Heart.
After several months, Gu Changqing had read all the books in the attic.
Whether it was comprehension or sword moves, they were all deeply engraved in his mind.
However, he was not in a hurry to achieve success. In order to break through the realm of Sword Dao, he followed the description of the cultivation method and cultivated according to the gourd ladle.
Instead, he chose to calm himself down and think about his own path.
He stayed in the pavilion for three days. During these three days, he didn't eat, drink or sleep.
Until the fourth day.
Gu Changqing stared at his chopper and suddenly understood.
"The world says that one must follow the Heavenly Dao. If one follows it, it will be good luck. If one goes against it, it will be bad luck. The Heavenly Dao covers all living beings and determines their fate.”
"But there are too many unfairness in this world. If the heavens decide to die, then people have to die. If the heavens call for people to die, then people have to die!”
"Since I am a sword cultivator, I will naturally fight against the heavens. I will use the sword in my hand to cut off that injustice, and I will use the saber in my hand to level that injustice. Even if the world is my enemy, even if the world forsakes me, I will kill anyone who stands in my way!”
"What harm is there in dying?"
