Chapter 158 Martial Arts, Life
An Ling couldn't wait to hold the jade slip engraved with the complete set of "Wanfa Meteor Sword" and injected a little spiritual power into it, and all the information appeared in her mind.
Li Wanjian's voice echoed in An Ling's mind, but this voice was very different from the one she had heard in the illusion of the Broken Star. His voice was low, and it was full of fatigue and vicissitudes. It was completely different from the high-spirited man he once was. It made people sigh, "I am Li Wanjian, an abandoned disciple of the Canglan Sword Sect, and a sinner with deep sins. If any disciple exchanges this sword technique in the Moxiang Pavilion in the future, please remember one thing: those who learn from me will live, and those who imitate me will die."
An Ling sighed. It seemed that Li Wanjian was still brooding over the fact that he was used by "Hu" to massacre monks with the evil sword "Broken Stars". Although she guessed that Li Wanjian was used, the fact that he killed people was a foregone conclusion. No matter what, this matter could not be forgotten. Naturally, he did not want his descendants to follow this path.
The following content is the martial arts method left by Li Wanjian. He did not talk about himself anymore, but taught the later generations seriously.
"Swordsmanship should emphasize martial arts over cultivation." The first sentence confused An Ling. Wasn't Li Wanjian from an immortal sect? How could he put martial arts before cultivation?
"Not everyone can practice martial arts, but with a certain amount of training, one can achieve something. For a small one, one can strengthen the body, and for a big one, one can collapse mountains and shatter rocks."
"Today's cultivators all focus on cultivation, but neglect martial arts. It is a big taboo to neglect one side."
"A tall building rises from the ground, and the foundation is of utmost importance. Therefore, martial arts should be the foundation of a cultivator."
Li Wanjian then elaborated in detail on his recognition and suggestions for martial arts, which touched An Ling deeply.
An Ling secretly compared the so-called "sword skills" she usually used and felt deeply ashamed. The "Dielang Sword Technique" from her master Yu Lang only gave her more powerful explosive power. No matter what kind of magic he used, I have a sword to break it. She has always implemented her master's philosophy and believed that "one sword can break all magic" is the right way. But now it seems that her understanding of this "sword" is a bit biased.
She returned to the cave and studied the "Sword Manual" left by Li Wanjian carefully. Yes, the previous magic secrets were all some mysterious words and the direction of spiritual energy, which depended entirely on comprehension, but this "Wanfa Meteor Sword" explained in great detail the changes of each move and each style, as well as the methods to crack the opponent, which made An Ling fascinated. Ever since she got this secret book, she has been studying the moves in it, and kept practicing them in the open space in the cave until the arrival of her senior brothers and sisters.
"Junior Sister An? Junior Sister An? Are you in there? I am Shao Shuang'er! Zi Qiu and Bai Quan are with me!" Shao Shuang'er's voice rang out outside the cave, which made An Ling suddenly wake up.
Wait, what time is it now? Senior Sister Shuang'er seemed to have said that she would be back the next day!
An Ling quickly opened up the permissions and went out to receive them in person. "Sorry, I was so engrossed in reading."
Shao Shuang'er has now changed back into the Canglan Sword Sect's disciple uniform. She has no makeup on, and no messy accessories on her head. She just uses a headband to simply tie up two buns, looking very neat and tidy.
As soon as she saw An Ling, her eyes became red. She trotted a few steps and hugged An Ling, "An Ling... I missed you so much!"
An Ling patted her back soothingly, "Senior Sister, welcome home."
Murong Ziqiu and Wu Baiquan looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and looked at Shao Shuang'er and An Ling's loving appearance with smiles. They couldn't help but sigh that Shao Shuang'er had finally found a good friend of similar age and gender. They always felt a sense of satisfaction as an old father watching her.
"Oh, by the way," An Ling suddenly said, "Senior brothers and sisters, have you signed up for the Immortal Sect Conference? I heard that registration will start today."
Shao Shuang'er let go of An Ling, nodded with a smile, then gently pinched An Ling's cheek and said, "I've reported it. Thank you for your concern, Junior Sister."
"That's good, that's good." An Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "Everyone, stop standing outside and come in!"
She thought of her own cave, which was bare and shabby, and tidied her hair with a guilty conscience, "Although it might be, perhaps, a little simple inside."
When several people entered the former Qiao Hongmian Cave, now An Ling's Cave, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. An Ling's entire cave was about the size of a bedroom and a living room on Lanxing. In the center was a huge sand table with some strange machines next to it. No one knew what they were used for. On the left was An Ling's bed, a bamboo mat, a rolled quilt, and a cushion for practicing. On the right was a table and chairs, which was where everyone was sitting now.
After seeing the appearance of this cave, Murong Ziqiu's eyes went dark. He opened his mouth several times to say something, but he held back. However, when he sat in the creaking chair in an orderly manner, he finally couldn't help it and asked, "Um... Junior Sister An, why is your cave like this? Is this the only place?"
An Ling nodded, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Murong Ziqiu thought of Lu Xiulin's cave residence where they often went. Although Old Lu was a bit eccentric and insisted on living in a bungalow instead of living in such a big imperial capital, his cave residence was at least of normal size. The cave residences that Canglan Sword Sect allocated to its disciples were almost big enough to accommodate an entire city. For some who were lucky, like Lu Xiulin, their cave residences could no longer be called cave residences, but should be called small worlds.
Shao Shuang'er looked at Wu Baiquan with a worried look on her face, and held An Ling's hand, "Junior sister, if you have any difficulties, you must tell us, and we will do our best to help you."
An Ling looked at the three people's strange expressions and finally understood why they were like this. She couldn't help but laugh. Everyone thought An Ling was crazy because of poverty. "Hey, brothers and sisters, have you seen this sand table?"
"I see. Is there anything special about it?" Wu Baiquan walked to the sand table and asked in confusion. After looking at it for a while, he seemed to have discovered something. "Huh? The little man inside can move by himself? And why does he move so fast?"
"Inside, there is a real world." An Ling said mysteriously, "This is a miracle created by the previous owner of the cave, Senior Sister Qiao Hongmian. As long as we put in spiritual energy as a supply, they will live, build, and climb the technology tree on their own. Even the civilizations have different traditions and cultures. It's very interesting."
Everyone was stunned and quickly ran to the sand table to use An Ling's "magnifying glass" to look at the living people in the sand table on the "TV".
"Senior Sister Hongmian is absolutely a genius. She used the fragments of the small world that made up the cave to create a recyclable world on the table. It's really one flower, one world; one leaf, one bodhi!" An Ling exclaimed. She was the only one playing here before, and now there are finally audiences. Shouldn't she introduce them well?
The other two were excitedly using the iron ring to spy on the lives of the little people. Only Murong Ziqiu pulled An Ling aside with a serious expression and asked in a low voice: "Junior Sister An, is this thing allowed to exist? I once heard the elders say that things related to life and reincarnation are not allowed..." He pointed to it, "Allowed."
