Book of the Heavens

Chapter 119 Society You Lonely City Brother
What Ye Gucheng said to Zhang Sanfeng was the words of a junior in Jianghu who visited his senior, but the tone of his speech did not have much respect.Even, there are some provocative meanings.He was indeed provocative, because after saying hello, he directly drew his sword and used "Flying Immortal from Heaven" to attack Zhang Sanfeng.

Yes, he drew his sword and attacked without even saying a single extra word.

This made Yang Hao, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but think: "When did Ye Gucheng become a person who doesn't talk too much, you Gucheng brother in society?"

It's true that people don't talk harshly.

He didn't say extraneous nonsense, he directly started to use his most powerful "Tianwai Feixian" swordsmanship, and directly hit the vital points, as if he had a grudge against Zhang Sanfeng.But he and Zhang Sanfeng obviously didn't have any enmity, the reason why he killed him immediately was because a real swordsman would never hold back his hand in a duel.

In a battle with a god like Zhang Sanfeng, one must do his best, and if he wins, he will live or die if he loses. There can be no chances.

In fact, Ye Gucheng never believed in those messy things in his life.

He only believed in himself, only in the sword in his hand.

"This child is interesting." Zhang Sanfeng said, using the same internal force, even suppressed to the same martial arts level, he used his fingers to display the "Tai Chi Sword", and greeted the Flying Immortal.

He didn't crush directly with hard power.

Although the strengths of the two are vastly different, and their realms are even more incomparable, there will still be some gains from the sparring—Naturally needless to say, Zhang Sanfeng, as a god of martial arts, even if he suppresses his realm, he is still a living dictionary of martial arts, which can make him Ye Gucheng saw many things that he could not see before.

And Ye Gucheng, his Flying Immortal, took a completely different path from Jin Yong's martial arts, which can also make Zhang Sanfeng feel something.

In Jin Yong's world, the high level of martial arts focuses on internal strength rather than moves. After reaching a certain level, it will enter the realm of "no move wins but moves", and completely get rid of dependence on moves.For example, Dugu Qiubai's "No Sword" state, Zhang Sanfeng's "Static Brake", and Sweeping Monk's "Three-foot Air Wall", etc.

Why did the sweeping monk say that monks with really high cultivation bases don't even bother to learn 72 unique skills?

Because in Jin Yong's world, moves are only secondary, and internal strength is the key.

Why Zhuo Bufan can't defeat Xu Zhu?It's not that the "Three-foot Sword Light" is not strong enough, but that his internal force is too weak!

However, is this "no tricks to win with tricks" the only high level of martial arts?
Obviously impossible.

Swordsmanship is endless, and similarly, moves are endless. "No moves win with moves" wins the realm, not no moves are stronger than moves.

In the ancient rivers and lakes, the relationship between moves and internal strength is completely opposite to Jin Yong's world: the strong in the ancient rivers and lakes never pay attention to internal strength, as long as the internal strength reaches a high level and is enough to perform unique skills, they are considered qualified.On top of that, there is no "supernatural power" level, no "true meaning of martial arts", and martial arts does not need to combine Taoism and Buddhism.

But is the ancient system weak?
of course not.

At least compared with Jin Yong's world, it is at the same level, and there is no distinction between strength and weakness.

The strong in the ancient rivers and lakes practiced "movements", pure martial arts, and did not pay attention to cultivation but only to actual combat.Therefore, the well-known Xiao Li Feidao appeared, the extremely brilliant Flying Immortal appeared, and the No.15 sword that extinct vitality appeared...

Which one is better, the Flying Immortal or the Nine Suns?
It's hard to say.

But those who practice Nine Suns Divine Art, and then learn the sword technique of Flying Immortals from Heaven, must be better than those who simply practice a certain martial art!
Therefore, even with Zhang Sanfeng's realm, he would gain some insights when he competed with Ye Gucheng.

Of course, the realm and divine power have to be suppressed.

Otherwise, a single thought of his can make mortals disappear, and there is no point in exchanging ideas.

"I've seen Wudang's Taiji sword before. The concept of using softness to overcome rigidity is really ingenious, but it's not enough to break my Heavenly Flying Immortal!" Ye Gucheng said, and he unleashed several swords in succession, as if to kill Zhang Sanfeng.

However, Zhang Sanfeng was about to be hurt, but he couldn't.

There is always a slight difference, making him miss, and Zhang Sanfeng's finger sword always hits the weakest point of Tianwai Feixian, making Ye Gucheng unable to do his best.

"Later generations are not good at learning skills, which made my friends laugh." Zhang Sanfeng said: "True Tai Chi, although it uses softness to overcome rigidity, and slowness to defeat fastness, it is not only kneading, nor is it only slow. It is a combination of rigidity and softness, which requires slowness. Slow when you need it, and fast when you need it.”

After speaking, he pointed out, hit the wrist and knocked down Ye Gucheng's sword.

"When a flaw is found, even though it strikes late, it still has to strike quickly, not giving the enemy a chance to defend." Zhang Sanfeng said.

Hearing this, Ye Gucheng, who had lost his sword, nodded with a smile on his face.

Then, he slapped himself on the head with a slam, and killed himself.

For a moment, no matter it was Yang Hao, Zhang Sanfeng, Jiu Shu and others, they were all stunned.

"Why is no one stopping?" Yang Hao said.

Immediately, Li Bai said, "I'm reading a novel, I don't have time."

"Far away." Zhuge Liang said.

"Wandering outside the sky." Uncle Jiu said.

As for Zhang Sanfeng, he glanced at Uncle Jiu and said, "I didn't expect Ye Gucheng to be so strong. Besides, it's good to let him die once. Only after experiencing death can one see through the world...Anyway, Uncle Jiu can call back souls. It’s okay to stop him, right?”

Hearing this, Yang Hao nodded.

There is nothing wrong with this statement.

But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, as if Lao Zhang was making excuses.

"This old man must be very black-bellied, right?" he thought.

Then, several people joined forces to bring Ye Gucheng back to life with full blood.

"This is me..." He looked dazed.

"Don't live or die at every turn, it's so good to be alive, why bother?" Yang Hao said.

Hearing this, Ye Gucheng was stunned for a moment, then said: "Aren't you going to kill me?"

He is a very lonely swordsman, because the height is extremely cold, he only plots to assassinate the emperor in the original book, and wants to do something grand and vigorous - this is undoubtedly dishonest to the sword in the eyes of Ximen Chuuxue and others.But they didn't think about it, what was the reason for the birth of the sword in the first place?

In fact, Ye Gucheng is not only loyal to the way of swordsmanship, but is even a level higher than the Jianghu people, knowing how to "use the sword".

No matter how sharp a sword is, it is meaningless if it is not used.

Assassinating the emperor is what his sword is for, because only in that way can he ascend to the top.

As for the duel with Ximen Chuuxue, it seemed unimportant!
However, after Zhang Sanfeng appeared, he suddenly changed his mind: Killing the emperor, how can killing a god give a sense of accomplishment?

So, he came to the library to challenge Zhang Sanfeng, and lost.

He was also a ruthless person, and committed suicide decisively after failure, without delay at all, because he understood that this was the only end for offending the strong.

However, a strong man is not the same as a god after all. God is aloof from the world, so how can he care about other people's offense?
Anyway, Yang Hao, Zhang Sanfeng and others were not annoyed by his forcible entry into the library, but felt that he was very courageous.

"We still want to hold a martial arts conference. If we kill you, the conference will not be complete!" Yang Hao said with a smile: "Besides, your 'Flying Immortal Outside the Sky' is also good, please write me a cheat book!"

In the end, Ye Gucheng left a cheat book of flying immortals outside the sky and left the library.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?" There were sporadic voices outside.
