Chapter 4889 - 4889 Discussing the Way of the Sword in the Dao Field


4889 Discussing the Way of the Sword in the Dao Field


His control over the Great Dao and his unique comprehension allowed him to easily condense and organize them.


If he really liked books, he could probably stuff half of the Heavenly Dao Library into them.


Jian Wushuang agreed to the Young Emperor’s invitation after a moment of consideration.


After a few months of rest, he set up a vast Daoist field in the southernmost region of Little Lonely Heaven as a place for sword sparring.


In order to join in the fun, Chen Qing, Chun Qiu, Cui Jing, Zhao Ting, and Wei Liujia followed Jian Wushuang to the southernmost border of Little Lonely Heaven. Even Di Qing followed with interest and was ready to listen.


There were more than 4,000 sword cultivators, but in fact, there were nearly 10,000 top cultivators, including the remaining 9 Yan Immortals.


What was certain was that all the remaining forces under the Young Emperor were present.


Standing in the middle of the training hall, Jian Wushuang’s mouth twitched as he looked at the overwhelming number of excited top cultivators.


However, this was not enough to make him nervous. After sighing helplessly, he quickly got into the mood.


“Those who have cultivated the way of the sword for 1 Hua Year, step forward.”


“Those who have cultivated the way of the sword for 2 Hua Years, step forward.”


“Those who have cultivated the way of the sword for 3 Hua Years, step forward.”



Jian Wushuang waited for the result after he finished speaking.


Soon, some top cultivators stepped out of the ranks and stood in their respective positions.


After dozens of breaths, almost 3,000 sword cultivators were divided into three camps. The 3 Yan Immortals who specialized in Sword Dao have all cultivated Sword Dao for 3 Hua Years.


This was not out of Jian Wushuang’s expectations. The path of sword cultivation had never been orthodox. It was already a great perseverance for them to persist in cultivating Sword Principle for 3 Hua Years.


Even though there were thousands of True Swords in the Great Yan Domain, they were only a medium to release the Yan power Immortal form.


“Now, who can tell me what the way of the sword is?” Jian Wushuang looked at them and asked in a clear voice.


All the sword cultivators looked at each other, including the 3 Yan Immortals. They all frowned and fell into deep thought.


At this moment, an ordinary-looking swordsman, who was not too eye-catching, took a step forward and said nervously, “The way of the sword is the path of improvement.”


The moment he said this, everyone, including the top cultivators in the outer field, laughed.


The sword cultivator’s face instantly turned red, and he wanted to shrink back.


Di Qing, who was in the outer field, saw this and immediately released Yan power to maintain order, making the Dao Field quiet down.


Jian Wushuang smiled. “You’re right. I also think that Sword Principle is a path for improvement.”


As soon as he said that, all the swordsmen became restless.


“No way, it’s that simple?”


“How can such a complicated thing as swordsmans.h.i.+p be summarized in two or three sentences…”


After getting Jian Wushuang’s approval, the swordsman immediately nodded his head and his face turned even redder.


After hearing the whispers, Jian Wushuang continued, “Who defined Sword Principle? Who could define it? It’s an ethereal Dao to begin with, and it’s not even as practical as cultivation.”


“What I want to say now is that no one can define the way of the sword, because there are thousands of ways of the sword. Every swordsman is just searching for a way to go up, to improve.”


“At the same time, I can also tell you clearly that the way of the sword is lonely. Everyone can define it at will. Even if you spend an entire Hua Year doing the simplest sword movement, it is still a part of the way of the sword.”


“There’s no need to refute others, and there’s no need to refute yourself. The way of the sword is impermanent, and it’s enough to summarize it with a path that leads upwards.”


All the top cultivators and sword cultivators had calmed down and were listening to Jian Wushuang’s discussion.


He continued calmly, “Now, regardless of whether you understand or not, I will tell you what I mean by the way of the sword in my heart.”


“The so-called Sword Dao, in my opinion, can only be described with eight words.”


“The Great Dao is simple, Yan is most complicated. These eight words can summarize it.”


“The first way of the sword must be the simplest. Even a strike of the wooden stick may be the source of the way of the sword. This is what is called simplicity.”


“After that, the first iron plate forged from iron ore completed its first mission of killing enemies. In fact, it was a simplified and complex process.”


“After the birth of the sword, the so-called Sword Intent and Sword Dao make the Sword PPrinciple became complex.”


“I’ve said a lot of things, but only eight words and one more sentence are useful. I won’t say more about the rest.”


There were no more than five people who could understand such a profound Sword PPPrinciple discussion.


However, Jian Wushuang obviously did not intend for them to understand. What he wanted to do now was to let them feel and Comprehend their own Sword Intent, and force-feed them with some Comprehension.


Di Qing and the others sitting outside the Dao Field did not say anything. They all frowned, as if they were thinking and recalling some principles.


After a brief summary of Sword PPrinciple, Jian Wushuang said, “I suddenly thought of another question. Can anyone tell me what a sword cultivator is?”


This time, no sword cultivator spoke.


Just as Jian Wushuang was about to speak, the ordinary-looking sword cultivator spoke again, “Sword cultivators are sword cultivators. Every sword cultivator with a different purpose will cultivate a different sword.”


This sentence seemed to be nonsense, but it had a unique understanding.


Even Jian Wushuang smiled and said, “That’s right. What’s your name?”


“Heavenly Official Jian, my name is Xu Jin.” The ordinary-looking sword cultivator replied.


“It’s a good name,” Jian Wushuang said. “Xu Jin, I want you to do something for me. Go to any mountain in Little Lonely Heaven, find a weed, and give it to me.”


He did not hesitate at all. After agreeing, he turned around and left the training hall, heading for the mountains.


Then, Jian Wushuang said, “The so-called True Sword cultivator is able to completely abandon all external objects and feel the strike of ordinary iron with the Dao of the Heart. He can release the Comprehension of sword moves and Sword Intents in his heart.”


“Compared to the top cultivators, even to Yan Immortals, the path of the sword is a dead end. Only those with great determination will gradually become clear of their goals.”


“Who among you has comprehended your own Sword Dao? Even the framework is fine.”


All the swordsmen lowered their heads. They were the most mediocre sword cultivators and could only barely condense their own Sword Intents. Even as the top cultivators who cultivated Yan power, they were not outstanding.


Those who could comprehend their own Sword Dao were all Heaven’s Favorites.
