Zhao Changhe's anus tightened when he saw this.
Thinking about it, the relationship between Sisi and I has not reached this point, and it should be almost severed. Now Sisi's contact with Zhongtu is one-way to find Tang Wanzhuang, and I don't even know where she is.
It has nothing to do with me anyway.
Previously, I had prepared a new sword technique for Tang Wanzhuang in Beijing and asked her to pass it on to Sisi. Now, several months have passed. I am now exploring the secret treasure door. After I truly break through the secret treasure, I should prepare another secret treasure-level sword technique and pass it on to Sisi... Not only is it a promise to Sisi, I also need to seek secret treasure-level sword and knife techniques.
The Blood Evil Sword Technique and several unique skills inherited from the Sword Emperor have reached the top level at the level of the Mysterious Gate, and only lack more rounded training. Zhao Changhe is sure that among the secret treasures, there should be very few people who can beat him.
But Zhao Changhe suspected that he still could not beat Yue Hongling before she broke through, or maybe Chichi.
There was no other reason, because Yue Hongling and Chi Chi had a very deep understanding of their swordsmanship, which had been integrated with their spirit, energy and soul, but he had too many things to do and lacked this level of integration and perception, and still used the swordsmanship purely as a technique.
As for the integration of Tang Wanzhuang's martial arts and Jian Huang's martial arts, it has not yet been blended without leaving any traces. The traces of the axe and the hammer are still quite obvious, and it has not been turned into one's own thing.
It is very possible to break through the secret treasure at this level: a deep understanding of one's own martial arts.
According to Huangfu Qing's commentary on the secret level performance, Zhao Changhe can correspond to the clear levels of the bloody swordsmanship from low to high. Starting from the intention of "the gods and Buddhas are scattered", what is cultivated is the kind of momentum that combines with the spirit of martial arts, and guides it all the way up. When it breaks through the secret level and truly combines "the world has no self", the "hell is like this" that is chopped out will definitely show its Dharma appearance at that time, and it is very likely that it will really be a bloodthirsty demon god.
So the value of a systematic martial arts lies here. It is far from being comparable to learning a move from the east or the west. It leads the way to climb the stairs. So far, Zhao Changhe has seen countless heavenly and earthly rankings and many high-level martial arts, but he still regards the Blood Evil Skill and Blood Evil Sword Skill as his fundamental skills and cannot abandon them. The sunk cost of abandoning them is too high and unbearable.
In other words, if you want to crack the secret treasure, you must first work hard on your Blood Evil Skills and Blood Evil Swordsmanship.
My thoughts are constantly spinning, which shows that I have a lot of things to do and I can't figure out which one to do first.
With thoughts in his mind, he slowly flipped through the "Atlas of Mountains and Rivers" in his hands. Most of it was like reading strange stories in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but it can be confirmed from the records of the ancient spirits that this "Atlas of Mountains and Rivers" should be reliable.
This is a treasure.
Even though many of the mountains and rivers mentioned here have never been heard of, it can be treated as an atlas of an ancient secret realm. Some of them even have very detailed map descriptions. If you ever enter such a large secret space, this map is priceless.
The ancient Xuanwu worked much harder than Sanniang... It is obvious that he had to travel to every corner of the world to have such detailed knowledge. I wonder if this has anything to do with the meaning of Xuanwu. Maybe he stole it
From the fact that Xuanwu kept this atlas in his ring and placed it on the altar with great care, we can see that even in the ancient times when gods and demons were everywhere and could fly freely, there were not many people who would travel around the world to survey every corner. Therefore, in ancient times, it was important information that Xuanwu cherished very much, and it is even more priceless now.
Oh yeah... put it on the altar...
Zhao Changhe's heart moved slightly.
The sword is the stars in the sky, and the book is the rivers in the world.
Place it in the circle of the void, set it up and offer it as a sacrifice…
This is probably not Xuanwu's own thing... It belongs to Yedi! It is possible that Yedi ordered Xuanwu to make it.
Sanniang said that Ye Di had great ambitions to control all the stars in the sky, but he only completed the correspondence of the four symbols.
Why didn't Zhuque know about this and had to ask Sanniang to find out? Of course, since Xuanwu was in charge of this matter, Zhuque didn't know, but Sanniang knew a little. Everyone's inheritance was different, so it was impossible for all the details to be exchanged clearly.
But Sanniang probably didn't expect that she had these...
From this point of view, the sword is the unfinished ambition of the Night Emperor to "constellations in the heavens", and the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" is to correspond to and find what is needed to forge the sword. It feels possible that one of the pages of the heavenly book should be the mountains and rivers of the world. The Night Emperor does not have that page, so he can only use the clumsy method of manual labor to draw this map of mountains and rivers... It corresponds to the sky above and the mountains and rivers below, which is a bit of the meaning of the Night Emperor.
Zhao Changhe thought about it and turned to the last page.
The following sentences were written on it: "The Four Symbols are the four seasons of the sky, the four directions of the earth, the foundation of heaven and earth, and the Tao. However, outside the Four Symbols, are the tiny stars not the sky? Outside the mountains and rivers, are the sand and dust not the earth? Outside the kings and princes, are the runners not people? Your Majesty's Tao is difficult to prove, perhaps this is a mistake."
"The stars in the sky illuminate this dark night. It's not that there is no sun and moon, but the king himself created them."
"Xuanwu was ordered to forge this mountain and river into a divine sword. When the sword is completed, it can be called a galaxy."
The record would have ended here.
A few paragraphs were added abruptly at the end, which did not match the previous text, as if they were added at another time. It can be seen that he was confused, the strokes were much more sloppy, and even the style of writing became much whiter:
"Is Tiandao dead? I can't finish my work... I'll leave the things here, waiting for someone who is destined to do so. No matter how many epochs pass, I hope someone will come to complete it. My inheritance is in the sea cave below. If you are destined to do so, take it. If you are not destined to do so, don't enter. I'll temporarily leave the Zhenwu Sword Stone here to help cleanse the meridians and marrow, and forge the Supreme Sword Body."
"The method of forging a sword is as follows..."
Zhao Changhe sighed, now he understood the whole thing.
In fact, Xuanwu's inheritance is just one place, divided into two floors. Here, the things he used to forge the sword for the Night Emperor are enshrined. The passage below originally led to his own underwater tomb.
After the collapse of the era, the two layers of space were separated due to the protection of different treasures. The inheritance of the tomb part was probably obtained by Sanniang very early, so Sanniang had the Xuanwu skills and knowledge. The part above that enshrined rings and gems collapsed to the desert rocky mountains. Sanniang roughly guessed that it was nearby. She wandered around for several years but couldn't find the way, which became the fate of herself and Yue Hongling.
As the two parts collapsed, a small part of the gem was also broken off and fell into the sea. It was obtained by the East China Sea Clan and used to make the Wang family's "ice cream". It secretly infiltrated the sea clan's aura and tried to control the Wang family. This incident became the clue for him to find this secret realm.
This gem is not the basalt stone as I imagined before. It is called Zhenwu Sword Stone. It is used to cleanse people's meridians and marrow and forge into the body of the Supreme Sword. Its original intention should be to pass it on to swordsmiths so that people will be willing to take the trouble to complete the sword only when they have a sword body that can adapt to the sword.
Yue Hongling absorbed and transformed the sword intent, but gave the main body to Sanniang. Judging from Sanniang's martial arts direction of playing with the snake whip, she should not be moving towards the Supreme Sword Body. Instead, Yue Hongling might be closer.
However, according to the Heavenly Book, this should be called "Supreme Dao Body". I wonder if it's just a different name, or is the sword body just a part of the Dao body and can be upgraded? Perhaps Yue Hongling took the sword meaning, Sanniang took the Dao realm, and I also enjoyed some of the effects of cleansing the meridians and marrow, which improved the meridian problems a lot.
It can be considered as dividing the value of the gem equally.
You have inherited someone else's legacy, shared their gems, taken the ring and looked at the map of mountains and rivers, so do you still want to do the work of forging this sword
Zhao Changhe smacked his lips in annoyance. It's not that I can't fulfill your last wish, but this sword-making method seems too mysterious... There don't seem to be many missing materials. After all, the main materials of the sword blank are already there, and the most complicated pre-processing has been completed. The rest should not be difficult. The main thing is that this heavenly stars and mountains and rivers, is it something that ordinary people can do
Uh... that's not right... Zhao Changhe suddenly became absent-minded.
"The stars in the sky illuminate this dark night. It's not that there is no sun and moon, but the king himself created them."
This is so close to my own secret treasure... but the quality is still far behind. I feel like I am the blank of this sword.
So, in fact, there are not many things, and all things can be summarized into one thing - finding your own path to becoming a master and breaking through the door to the secret treasure.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of the young Taoist priest from the Yukun Gang rang out: "Mr. Zhao, Yuxu Zhenren replied, asking you to go to Yuxu Palace to meet him."
