On the wall of the jade stone mountain that was flowing with a faint blue light, four lines of powerful and forceful poetry made Tan Qing almost instantly feel the atmosphere contained within.
After this touch, it reached the realm of meaning.
"Boom!" It was as if a flood had burst its banks, the four lines consisting of thirty big characters, that strong and terrifying atmosphere was like a mighty flood, instantly submerging Teng Qing Shan. Although Teng Qing Shan's "god" was powerful, at this moment he was also instantly completely trapped in the world of these four lines of poetry.
Teng Qing Shan's eyes saw it, dozens of blurry cyan human silhouettes were dancing with sword moves.
The swordsmanship is ethereal, as if following the trajectory of heaven and earth.
But it made Teng Qing Shan feel... like the axe technique used by a carpenter, simple and unremarkable. At this moment, around Teng Qing Shan, in all directions, were figures with green bodies, practicing various sword techniques. It was called sword technique, but it seemed more like a sword dance.
……
If someone came to this natural cave, they would find Teng Qing Mountain holding the Wheel of Reincarnation and staring at the wall, just like that... motionless for a full half hour.
"Clang!" A crisp sound rang out.
Li Kun was shocked in the channel and took a few steps forward, immediately seeing that the Wheel of Rebirth had fallen to the ground and rolled all the way to the side wall before stopping. As for Teng Qing Shan, his right hand's index and middle fingers were shaped like a sword, with each move seemingly practicing some unpredictable sword technique.
Hong Qing Shan's figure flashed and moved, his sword pointing out a practice move that was extremely sharp.
"Whoosh!"
Due to its extreme sharpness, even without using Innate True Yuan, there were still bursts of energy shooting out in all directions.
"Clang!" "Clang!" The powerful impact struck the jade pendant with four rows of characters, producing a crisp sound, but the jade pendant was not damaged in the slightest.
"Pffft!"
The rocks beside Li Kun were shattered by the powerful energy, and some small stones also rolled down.
"Brother Teng, when did your swordsmanship become so formidable?" Li Kun was shocked. "Is it related to that 'Divine Jade Disc'?" Although he thought so, Li Kun didn't dare to look at the 'Divine Jade Disc'.
"Hmm, having an extra skill isn't a bad thing." Li Kun looked at the moving figure of Teng Qing Shan in the cave, "I'll just wait a bit longer!"
This wait has made time seem longer.
The sun was right in the middle, all the way down to the mountain, until nightfall, even the cave was pitch black.
But the momentum was surging and crashing against the mountain wall with a continuous and increasingly dense sound.
Late at night.
Li Jun had long been hiding deep in the mountain path, fearing that she would be mistakenly injured by Teng Qing Shan. In the darkness, Li Jun's small face also had a faint blood stain, which was left behind when she accidentally scratched her face with splashing gravel earlier. However, Li Jun didn't mind at all, and she continued to stare in the direction of the cave: "Teng big brother's swordsmanship is getting stronger and stronger, just that burst of energy alone is constantly increasing in power."
Towards General Qing Shan, Li Kun's admiration grew even more.
Suddenly——
"No!" A low, angry roar suddenly came from the cave.
"Brother Teng!" Li Kun was shocked and ran towards the cave entrance.
Although it was dark, the soft green glow emitted from the jade pendant on one side of the cave was enough to allow an internal energy expert to see everything inside the cave clearly.
"Brother Teng, what's wrong with you?" Li Kun said in surprise and anger.
At this moment, Teng Qing Shan was biting his teeth, with blood at the corner of his mouth, and sweat all over his face, looking like a crazed wild beast.
"I'm fine." Tian Qing Shan squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"Brother Teng..." Li Kun was even more worried.
Sweat-drenched Teng Qing Shan stared at the jade pendant, his eyes like those of a crazed wolf: "Even if your swordsmanship is superior and formidable... this isn't the path I want to take. This isn't what I desire... even if you could help me reach the Void Realm! I don't want it." Teng Qing Shan's gaze was more resolute than ever before.
Outsiders have no idea what happened in the past five or six hours!
"Teng big brother, what's going on?" Li Kun said anxiously, holding onto Teng Qing Shan's arm.
Heng Qing Shan turned his head towards Li Kun, revealing a hint of a smile: "It's nothing, this is actually good for me."
"Good thing?" Li Kun couldn't believe it at all, how could Tan Qing's previous behavior be a good thing.
"On this divine jade pendant, there are four lines of poetry." Teng Qing Shan explained, "And these four lines of poetry, according to my estimation, should be written by an extremely extraordinary super strong person! It contains the swordsmanship connotation of this super strong person, which is not a sword technique, but purely the sword path that this super strong person has realized! This belongs to his sword path!"
"In front of his swordsmanship, my past understanding is insignificant!"
"I was completely immersed in his realm, his sword path."
Hong Qing Shan's eyes gleamed, "I have already touched the edge of 'Tao', so I can gradually understand the meaning contained in this poem. If I continue to cultivate bitterly, I believe that within three to five years, I will definitely enter the Void Realm and become a strong Void Realm cultivator."
"Three years and five loads?" Li Kun took a deep breath in surprise.
Teng Qing Shan is now eighteen years old.
Three years and five loads?
A realm cultivator in his twenties? Absolutely unbelievable!
"Heng big brother, this is a good thing, you can just cultivate here. Or... we'll take away this 'Immortal Jade Disc'." Li Kun said, she didn't care that the Immortal Jade Disc was a treasure of Jian Lou.
"No."
Hong Qing Mountain shook his head, "With my understanding of the Tao, I have been pondering this 'Immortal Jade Token' for years, and indeed it can reach a state of emptiness! However, that empty state is the emptiness of the sword, not the gun. Moreover, the Tao contained within is also the Tao he has understood. I am just walking the path he has walked!"
"I have my own way!"
"My weapon is a gun, forever will be a gun!"
Hong Qingshan's heart is as firm as a rock.
Teng Qing Shan can create his own "Earth Traveling Fist" and "Water Traveling Fist", this creation, and learning from others' Dao, are two different concepts. A strong person who can create on their own has a deeper understanding of the 'Dao'. If it were someone else, even if they have a powerful 'Shen', they would not be able to bring out the terrifying atmosphere hidden within the Divine Jade Disc.
But they can't bear that kind of atmosphere, or perhaps, they just can't understand it at all.
Teng Qing Shan's swordsmanship is a microcosm of the heavens and the earth, and it can be understood by grasping just a small part of it. The realm of this swordsmanship is right in front of him, and understanding it will be much easier. If Teng Qing Shan really dedicates himself to cultivation for several years, based on his past foundation, he will break through the bottleneck and reach the Void Realm within a few years. It's absolutely not a difficult task.
"But I will create a path that truly suits internal martial arts!"
"I want to create a path of my own, one that belongs to gun fu."
"One road, belongs to Qingcheng Mountain!"
Hong Qing Shan lowered his head and picked up the reincarnation gun that he had once let go of.
"Huh?" Teng Qing Shan lowered his head, and saw that the divine jade pendant had an additional line of words on it, above and below the four-line poem - "I am Li Taibai, one sword shattered emptiness at Mingyue Island! Leaving behind a song for those with fate!"
Teng Qing Shan's mind went blank as he saw these words.
"Li Taibai?" Teng Qing Shan was shocked beyond measure.
"Is it the Poet Immortal Li Taibai?"
"One of the Four Greats, Li Taibai?"
Teng Qing Shan was completely stunned, originally thinking that the four lines were left by a Void Realm expert or a Hollow Spirit Realm expert. Although an idea had flashed through his mind, wondering if it could be left by an Omnipotent expert, Teng Qing Shan didn't dare to think more and excluded that thought.
"Brother Teng, what's wrong?" Li Kun asked in surprise, still not daring to look at the words on the jade pendant.
"Look here." Teng Qing Shan pointed at that line of words.
Teng Qing Shan knew... those four lines of poetry, should be Li Tai Bai's own 'Sword Way' contained within, so also contains Li Tai Bai's 'World Power', a ordinary mountain wall, after so many years, turned into a jade stone mountain wall, this is the wonder of World Power.
This is also something that only the strongest possess!
"I can't bear to look." Li Jun said hesitantly.
"Look, there's nothing here. Those four lines of writing you can't see for the time being, once you trigger the sword intent contained in them, your mind won't be able to bear it, and it will cause great harm to 'God'. I'm afraid that for the rest of your life, you won't be able to reach the Innate." Teng Qing Shan said.
Li Kun also nodded and looked in the direction of Teng Qing Shan's pointing finger.
"This is——" Li Kun looked and was also stunned.
"Li Taibai?" Li Kun saw those three words and couldn't believe it either.
Yu Huang, Qinling Tian Emperor 'Ying Zheng', Poetic Sword Immortal 'Li Taibai', Sakyamuni Ancestor - these four extremely powerful beings are the four people who have stood at the pinnacle of the world for countless years. These four extremely powerful beings are all extremely powerful beings from different eras. However, without exception -
They all reached the realm of the strongest.
"This poem is the legacy of Poet Sword Immortal," Teng Qing Shan exclaimed. "One of the legendary Four Great Divine Classics, the 'Green Lotus Sword Song', I reckon, would be at most a bit more complicated than these four lines, with some additional postnatal and prenatal cultivation processes. But the sword path of Poet Sword Immortal is all contained within this poem. To put it accurately, it's a sword song!"
With rainbow as clothing and wind as horse, the master of clouds comes down in a flurry. With tiger drum and phoenix chariot, the immortal people are arrayed like hemp.
Deeply admired in my heart.
In the distant past, Li Taibai, who had reached the realm of Dōng Xū, flew through the wind and traversed the boundless world with ease. On the island of Mingyue, he met some residents and eventually achieved a breakthrough in his understanding, reaching the realm of the strongest. He also left behind some simple cultivation methods for the residents of Mingyue Island.
The residents of Mingyue Island, based on their cultivation methods, added the four-character inscription from the immortal jade disc passed down by their three-generation ancestors, suddenly enlightened and reached the void realm, and created the "Mingyue Sword Classic", which began to flourish generation after generation.
"Huh?"
Hong Qingshan also found that on the other side of the cave, there were some boulders blocking the entrance.
"Could there be another passage?" Teng Qing Shan walked over, his legs transformed into a phantom, and directly kicked it.
A loud rumbling sound, a large number of rocks were blown away. Outside this passage, it turned out to be a platform. Beyond the platform was an endless cliff!
"It was here all along!" Teng Qing Shan walked out of the cave and arrived at the edge of the platform. Li Kun also stood beside him.
A cold wind blew by, and in front of Zeng Qing and Shan was an endless cliff.
Teng Qing Shan looked up and gazed around, even faintly seeing the edge of another mountain peak.
"In the distant past, Poet Sword Immortal must have flown in from high above, landing on this cliffside platform halfway up the mountain to enter this cave. It was here that he comprehended the ultimate sword path."
Teng Qing Shan gazed vaguely at the edge of another mountain peak, and as he thought about how it was just as tall as this forbidden mountain, with steep cliffs on adjacent mountainsides, an idea floated into his mind: "Could Poet Sword Immortal have comprehended the sword path and then slashed out a single sword from high above, splitting one tall mountain in two? Only then did these two peaks come to be?"
