Chapter 70 Do You Want to Learn Sword?

Shenjian Peak is one of the nine spiritual peaks of Tianmen Mountain. Its mountain is extremely steep, and many places are almost vertical cliffs. From a distance, it looks like a giant pillar inserted into the ground. Therefore, it was named Tianzhu Peak a long time ago.

Later, with the continuous exploration of the monks who settled here in the early days, they found many strange places on this peak. These strange places not only have much richer spiritual energy than other places, but also the spiritual mist formed by the rich spiritual energy is floating and floating, and it actually reveals some strange trajectories that are in line with the avenue. These trajectories seem to have no rules at first glance, but they will feel something when they are often observed, which makes the monks have some new insights into the skills and techniques they have learned. Some monks even realized some new skills and techniques from them and became famous all over the world.

Among these monks who have gained something, the monks who practice swordsmanship account for the vast majority, so gradually there is a legend. Legend has it that this Tianzhu Peak is not an ordinary mountain, but a real sword that fell here for some reason and became one of the nine peaks of Tianmen. The fundamental reason why the comprehension of those special places can produce strange trajectories that can allow cultivators to comprehend is that these trajectories are actually caused by the sword energy of this heavenly sword, and therefore the possibility of cultivators who practice swordsmanship gaining insights from it is much higher than that of other cultivators.

Over time, because of this legend, Tianzhu Peak was renamed Shenjian Peak by the cultivators, which means the divine sword descended from the sky. After Taixu Palace took over the Tianmen Mountain lineage, the masters of Shenjian Peak in successive generations were all masters of swordsmanship, so the name of Shenjian Peak was also established. And the master of Shenjian Peak of this generation, Ye Zhichen, has a cultivation base that is almost as high as the Tao and an extraordinary swordsmanship. In a bloody battle decades ago, the enemies turned into dust wherever the sword passed, and the name of Shenjian Peak and the ruthless sword saint Ye Zhichen became famous all over the world, and almost everyone knows it.

In today's world, the Shenjian Peak of Tianmen Mountain is known as the four holy places for sword practice, along with the Jianhuang Palace of the Dayan Dynasty, the Mangshan Sword Sect of the Manghuang Mountains in the northern part of the Saibei, and the Nanming Sword Sect on the southern coast.

There are many houses and caves on the hillside of Shenjian Peak, which are the residences of people who live and practice here. Among these houses and caves, there is an inconspicuous thatched house, which looks very ordinary, just like the thatched houses where ordinary farmers live.

The thatched house is not exquisite, but very tidy. The three thatched houses are arranged in a product shape, and a row of wooden fences surround the opening, forming a small courtyard. The courtyard is very tidy. On the compacted ground, a gravel-paved path extends from the door to the three houses. The path is full of flowers and plants, swaying gently with the breeze that blows from time to time on the mountain.

However, it is precisely because of the ordinariness and simplicity of the thatched house that the owner of this place is shown to be extraordinary. Look outside the house not far away, the breeze that gently sways the flowers and plants turns into a strong wind that blows sand and rocks before it blows into the courtyard, and this strong wind can be seen everywhere on Shenjian Peak. Shenjian Peak is extremely high, only a few points lower than Lingxiao Peak. The halfway up the mountain where the thatched house is located is already above the clouds. Not to mention the strong winds that blow from time to time, even the strong winds that can seriously injure monks occasionally appear. Wherever they pass, it is like a sharp blade passing through, leaving a series of knife-like marks on the hard mountain of Shenjian Peak.

The monks living on this halfway up the mountain are all monks with advanced cultivation. Various protective formations are set up outside their residences to resist the harassment of this strong wind. For example, this thatched house seems to have no defense at all, but whenever a strong wind blows, the wind will weaken when it encounters this thatched house, turning into a light breeze that blows slowly, which can only shake the flowers and plants, and cannot damage the thatched house at all.

What did all this was a sword, a long sword stuck in the bluestone at the gate of the courtyard. Its owner is Ye Zhichen, the contemporary master of the Divine Sword Peak and the ruthless swordsman Ye Zhichen.

This thatched house is his residence.

Ye Zhichen has a cold personality and doesn't like to get along with others. He even has few friends. Although the thatched house he lives in is clean and tidy, it can't hide the feeling of being deserted. Except for the servants who come to clean on time, there are almost no people here. Ye Zhichen doesn't have the habit of talking to himself, so it is almost quiet all year round, as if it is an empty house.

However, since Ye Zhichen brought someone back, the tranquility here has been broken. The frequent noises made it noisy and lively.

"Uncle, I'm starving!" Li Chuyi covered his stomach and looked at Ye Zhichen pitifully.

Ye Zhichen, who was meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes slightly and frowned, saying, "Didn't I give you food?"

Li Chuyi almost cried when he heard this, and shouted, "Uncle, I am a human, not a rabbit! How can I be full with vegetables and noodles every day?! I want to eat meat!!!"

Ye Zhichen frowned even more, looking at the tearful Li Chuyi and said, "A cultivator should cultivate his mind first. If he can't even bear the desire for food and drink, how can he ascend to the great way?"

Li Chuyi rolled his eyes and said loudly, "But cultivators are also human, and they have to eat! Meat is needed for eating!"

"Cultivators in the fasting period can not eat." Ye Zhichen said calmly.

"It is okay not to eat, not that you can't eat! Not all cultivators in the fasting period fast and don't eat rice or water!" Li Chuyi retorted.

Ye Zhichen looked at him and said coldly: "Can you see any great master who is so obsessed with food and drink like you? Eating is enough to fill your stomach, why do you have to be so particular? Since you have embarked on the path of cultivation, you can't be as ignorant as ordinary people."

"Who said that!" Li Chuyi was immediately unwilling, "I know a peerless master who is not only particular about food and drink, but also about dressing and indulgence in all seven emotions and six desires!"

"Who?" Ye Zhichen frowned.

"My master!" Li Chuyi shouted, "My master doesn't give up anything! Not only does he eat meat and vegetables, but he also has to have wine. Occasionally, he will kill some stupid monsters to eat!"

Ye Zhichen was stunned when he heard this, and then he heard Li Chuyi continue to say: "Moreover, my master is greedy for money. He takes me to tell fortunes and perform rituals for people all day long. He spends all the money he earns on food, drink and entertainment. He doesn't even let go of my private money. He thinks about how to cheat me every day! My master is also lustful. He says all day long that he is a Taoist in the world and a person who is extraordinary and unworldly, but he will go to every brothel he goes to. Which brothel and red courtyard has not left his footprint? What Taoist in the world? I think he is just a Taoist in the brothel!"

Ye Zhichen was speechless and kept silent.

He knew Tianyi Daozun and even had a few encounters with him. If this peerless master who was respected by the world as the best in the world is not a decisive great man, then there are few people in the world who can be called the best. He knew some of the reputation of this great man, but now he was choked by what Li Chuyi said.

Seeing Ye Zhichen silent, Li Chuyi asked loudly: "Uncle, do you think my master is a peerless master?"

"Yes!" Ye Zhichen nodded slightly.

"Does he indulge in wine, meat, money and sex?" Li Chuyi was even more excited.

After a slight hesitation, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but press his forehead with a headache and whispered: "Well, right."

"That's it!" Li Chuyi smiled triumphantly, "You see, my master doesn't give up anything and does whatever he wants. As his apprentice, I only learn his attitude towards eating. Is that right? Uncle, shouldn't you help me get some meat to fill my stomach?"

"No." Ye Zhichen said without hesitation.

Seeing Ye Zhichen refused again, he was immediately furious, staring at Ye Zhichen and asked: "Why? Do you want to see me starve to death or die of greed?"

Ignoring Li Chuyi's angry glare, Ye Zhichen said lightly: "I said, when you can leave this yard, then I will take you to the foot of the mountain to have a feast and let you eat enough."

Li Chuyi was stunned for a moment.

Thinking about the pain of these days, everything originated from the day he followed Ye Zhichen to this place.

That day, Ye Zhichen drove him to this small courtyard, and after landing, he looked back and asked him: "Do you want to learn sword?"

With the mentality of never letting go of any good thing, Li Chuyi, who felt that his strength was low, was naturally happy and agreed without hesitation: "Yes!"

So, since that day, he never left this yard again, like a rabbit, being kept here, being fed vegetables and radishes by Ye Zhichen every day, miserable.

Whenever he recalled his answer, Li Chuyi couldn't help but slap himself in the face.

Why learn sword? It's already cheap enough, why learn it?

Why am I so cheap? !
