"Wooden sword."
Wu Jian replied.
Wu Di nodded and replied casually,
"Then it seems that this person's sword-arts have yet to be fully mastered, and he hasn't completely stepped into the realm of 'swordless'.”
Wu Di remembered that in the original book, Dugu Qiubai was described as "After 40 years old, you will not be stuck in things. Grass, wood, bamboo and stone can be used as swords. From then on, he cultivated and gradually reached the realm of winning without a sword.」。
Dugu Qiubai still needed a wooden sword, which meant that he was still in the process of 'refinement and advancement'.
" Swordless Realm?"
Wu Jian was stunned for a moment and did not quite understand.
Seeing this, Wu Di smiled and explained,
"The so-called no sword, to be specific, is having a sword in your heart, but not in your hands. He was not hindered by external things and could do as he pleased. No sword was better than a sword, and no move was better than a move.”
"This is the highest realm of the Nine Swords Beyond the Swords created by Dugu Qiubai. Anatta is formless, anatta is unintentional, anatta is invincible, and that's why he can see through everything and win first.”
"Therefore, when Dugu Qiubai has no sword in his hands, it will be the time when his Sword Dao is truly accomplished.”
"A sword without a sword? No move to win?"
Wu Jian felt touched and seemed to have understood something, but soon, a conflicted expression appeared on his face.
Dugu Qiubai's swordsmanship was in great conflict with the swordsmanship passed down in the Wu family.
The Wu family's Sword Dao placed great importance on the use of divine weapons and swords.
However, from this perspective, Wu Jian seemed to feel that Dugu Qiubai's sword principle of " winning without a sword and winning without a move " was of a higher level.
When Wu Di saw Wu Jian's conflicted look, he knew that he was most likely shocked by the theory of the Nine Swords Beyond the Swords. Therefore, he said to Wu Jian indifferently,
"Patriarch, there is no such thing as the strongest Sword Dao. There is only the most suitable Sword Dao.”
Although his voice was soft, it was like a loud bell, directly waking Wu Jian up.
Wu Jian returned to his senses and smiled bitterly.
To think that he had practiced the sword for so many years and was still at the peak of the great grandmaster realm. It was really a little embarrassing that he could not see it clearly before a martial arts first-grade junior.
Indeed, so what if Dugu Qiubai's sword doctrine was strong? That was Dugu Qiubai's Sword Dao, not his.
The Wu family's sword tomb had dominated the martial world for hundreds of years. How could the Wu family's sword path be weaker than others?
Wu Jian felt that he must have been stuck at the peak of the martial grandmaster realm for too long, which was why he was a little impatient and had the thought of doubting his own sword path.
Moreover, he was the winner in the sword competition between him and Nine Swords Beyond the Swords!
With the mysterious Big River Sword Intent, why would he bother to figure out Dugu Qiubai's sword art?
Seeing that Wu Jian had understood, Wu Di did not say anything else.
"This Dugu Qiubai can be considered a genius. He has no sect, but he can figure out such a brilliant sword path.”
Wu Jian praised after he came to a realization.
"Yes, this person is indeed extraordinary, but he's actually a little handsome.”
Wu Di replied casually.
Wu Jian was stunned for a moment and asked,"
"What do you mean?"
Wu Di replied indifferently,
"In my opinion, his 'victory without a sword' lies in his state of mind and not in external objects. Having a sword in his hand doesn't mean that he doesn't have a sword in his heart. Having a sword in his heart doesn't mean that he doesn't have a sword in his hand.”
"If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. As long as one's state of mind was smooth, what did it matter if one had a sword or not?”
Apart from that, there was something that Wu Di did not tell Wu Jian.
Looking up, even the legendary saints had to use all kinds of magic treasures, so why were sword cultivators the strongest without swords?
It is the right way to treat things and not to treat things.
Wu Jian was greatly shocked by Wu Di's words. He knew that Wu Di had a deep understanding of the Sword Dao, but he did not expect it to be so deep!
Was the Heart Integrated into Sword really that terrifying?
That was not right. The ancestor of the Wu family, whose heart was integrated into the sword, and the records in the family's ancient books were not so ridiculous. Wu Jian felt that only Wu Di was ridiculous.
This understanding of Sword Dao was simply heaven-defying!
Thinking of this, Wu Jian said to Wu Di,
"Wu Di, I've been trying to figure out the Big River Sword Intent you created recently, but I can't seem to find the true essence of it. Why don't you help me take a look?”
"Alright, then please show me your Big River Sword Intent, Patriarch.”
Wu Di nodded.
Then, Wu Jian drew his sword and displayed the Big River Sword Intent in front of Wu Di.
After reading it, Wu Di pondered for a moment and said to Wu Jian,
"Patriarch, I can roughly understand. Your Big River Sword Intent is completely based on my method.”
"Isn't that right?"
Wu Jian was a little puzzled.
If he did not practice according to Wu Di, the creator of the Big River Sword Intent, who else could he practice according to?
Wu Di shook his head and said,
"Patriarch, the Big River Sword Intent focuses on the mind and not the form. The river was originally invisible, and it was all sword-wielding people! The big river that I understand might not be the big river in your mind. You need to integrate your own understanding into the big river sword essence in order to truly master it.”
"You've been following my path, so of course you can't grasp the essence.”
"What is my Big River Sword Intent?”
Wu Jian muttered to himself.
"You'll have to comprehend it yourself, Patriarch. When you comprehend it, it'll most likely be the time for you to step into the Land Immortal Realm.”
Wu Di replied.
He actually had some guesses about Wu Jian's Big River Sword Intent. It should have something to do with Wu Jian's identity as the family head, but he could not say it. Wu Jian had to comprehend it himself. Otherwise, Wu Jian would still have no hope of entering the Land Immortal Realm.
With Wu Di's guidance, Wu Jian seemed to have found a direction, but at the same time, he seemed to have not found a direction. In the end, he left with many messy thoughts. He even forgot to tell Wu Di the reason why he came to look for Wu Di this time.
……
Li Yang Empire.
The Imperial Residence of Beihan.
After reading a letter, Lord Beihan thought for a moment and walked to the bottom of the Tide-listening Pavilion.
At the bottom of the pavilion, there was a person. It was a short, skinny, cross-eyed, one-armed old man with a goatee.
"Sword God Li, are there any land immortals in the Wu family's sword tomb?”
The one-armed old man picked his nose and replied disdainfully,"
"The Wu family doesn't have any land immortals."
"Back then, when I went to the Wu family's sword tomb to ask for the sword, which one of the Wu family members who were slightly decent had not seen it? It would be strange if they could become immortals on land.”
Xu Xiao nodded. Since Sword God Li had said so, he was definitely not wrong.
"Oh right, I just received the latest news. Someone from the Wu Clan created an extremely powerful sword intent. Wu Jian relied on this sword intent to defeat the Great Song Dynasty's Sword Dao Grandmaster, Dugu Qiubai, in the Darming Dynasty.”
"Sword God Li, do you want to go to the Wu family to take a look?”
Xu Xiao asked casually before he left.
The one-armed old man flicked the earwax he had just fished out and said indifferently,
"Not interested."
"I've already met all the elders of the Wu family. They're not worth mentioning. What kind of decent sword intent can they create?”
"Maybe it was created by the younger generation of the Wu family?”
"Hehe, how can there be a second person like me in the world?”
The one-armed old man replied proudly.
Xu Xiao smiled and nodded. He didn't think the one-armed old man was arrogant at all. Instead, he deeply agreed with him.
This was because this one-armed old man was Sword God Li, the Sword God Li who suppressed an era of the pugilistic world with his sword!
"The Wu family."
After leaving Tide-listening Pavilion, Xu Xiao looked in the direction of the Wu family's sword tomb with a complicated expression.
He knew that the Wu family had never given up on the idea of taking back the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow from Lord Beihan, but this was the relic of his most beloved woman and he would never give it away!
If the Wu family had the ability, they would come and get it themselves!
