Chapter 106: General Theory

Human beings did not reach the achievements of today's civilization in one leap, and that towering mountain of sword path did not rise from the ground out of thin air with the casting of the first sword.

The sword, this ancient and eternal weapon, has been studied by humans for thousands of years, and it seems to have infinite potential. Even though it has been developed by millions of people for thousands of years, it can still create unprecedented new miracles from time to time.

"General Theory of Six Dynasties Sword Arts" is as its name suggests, telling the sword path from the Xia Dynasty, through the Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, and Jin dynasties, without losing the main points, and not appearing trivial, with majestic momentum and clear thinking.

The first half of this book focuses on the individual, talking about "sword cultivation" itself. Its most essential point lies in summarizing the five realms of sword path, so that there is guidance on how to use effort in each realm. One can imagine the author's own high sword path realm.

The second half talks about the development of the sword, the changes of the old and Zhuang swords, and the tempering of the Wu and Yue swords. How they became the Daoist sword, Yunlang sword, and Dongting sword of today. The author strictly tells it, and the precision of the insights can be seen in his research and vision.

Zhu Gaoyang lectured to Pei Ye at this time, and each paragraph had to be lectured three times.

The first time, he smoothed out the words and sentences, from pronunciation to meaning, and then to the allusions cited by each word and sentence, all explained in detail without omission. The second time was to explain the sword theory mentioned in the book, explaining the profound in simple terms, and occasionally taking two writing brushes as swords to gesture. The third time was to close the book and teach Pei Ye his unique understanding of this passage based on his knowledge of growing up in Long Jun Dongting and his extremely high sword path realm.

After such a set of processes, the "General Theory" seemed to be wiped of fog and dismantled heavily in Pei Ye's mind. The words were still those words, but when Pei Ye looked at them again, he only felt clear and enlightened.

But this way of lecturing also consumed time extremely. I don't know how long it took, this booklet had just been flipped through one-tenth, Sister Xing Zhi had already come to push the door gently, and asked with doubt: "Why haven't you slept yet?"

Pei Ye was awakened by this, turned his head to look outside the door, and the heavy night was deep and quiet.

"Hmm" he stood up somewhat unfulfilled, shook his head, it was really the first time in his life to experience the feeling of precious knowledge pouring into his brain without money.

"It's so late... then Brother Zhu, let's continue tomorrow."

Zhu Gaoyang smiled. He naturally didn't forget the time, but seeing Pei Ye fascinated, he kept lecturing.

"So studious, shouldn't be unable to recognize all the characters." He joked.

Pei Ye rolled his eyes at him, said goodbye to Sister Xing Zhi, and took the book out.

For most people, being studious is not a normal state. Only by learning the right things at the right time will there be a feeling of thirst for knowledge.

Pei Ye had just seen the sword path clearly after Ming Qitian's guidance, and had truly improved his strength under this knowledge. At this time, he was extremely thirsty for knowledge in the aspect of "sword theory". In the past eight years, he had paid too much attention to "doing" and ignored "knowing". Now that he realized this point, the desire that had been suppressed for eight years naturally became unstoppable.

New knowledge constantly verified with his past realizations, and constantly answered his long-standing problems, verifying those occasionally emerging wild ideas. This feeling was indeed fascinating.

Returned to his room.

Pushing the door, the room was pitch black. Still used to not lighting the lamp, he felt his way to the side of the bed. Turning his head, he saw a piece of faint moonlight spilling on the head of the bed. A black ball was curled up in this moonlight, and the soft fur glowed with crystal silver.

Pei Ye climbed onto the bed quietly, without startling it.

The black cat also has things to be busy with.

It only has such a small body left, although it is still growing, it will take a considerable amount of time to restore it to the beginning.

Unlike humans, Immortal Hunters don't care about meridian trees, let alone True Qi, a power unique to humans. Therefore, obviously, the strength of the body determines their strength.

Although now through the contract, the Black Serpent can absorb and mobilize heaven and earth Mystic Qi, leveraging heaven and earth Mystic Qi itself is to use itself as a lever. For humans, this lever is spiritual inspiration and meridian trees, while for Immortal Hunters, it returns to the body.

So the Black Serpent is also practicing day and night, occasionally stopping to stare at the sky in a daze, and cold light flashes in its green eyes from time to time.

Pei Ye didn't disturb it all day, only holding it on his lap when eating.

Immortal Hunters can indeed not drink or eat, but it is not that they cannot eat, at least the Black Serpent is not uninterested in eating, and its sense of taste is not unified with cats, but more inclined to humans. Basically, whatever Pei Ye eats, he will share a small spoon with it.

Pei Ye lay on the bed and closed his eyes, savoring the fulfilling day, and soon entered a dreamland.

I don't know how long it took.

In the deep dream, Pei Ye suddenly felt his body being poked.

The dream was still continuing, but his deeper consciousness had awakened. He sat up suddenly, opened his eyes and looked around, but the night was quiet, and nothing happened.

Then he felt something poking his leg.

Pei Ye lowered his head. A glazed sword floated in the air, using the sword handle to gently poke himself through the quilt.

The dark blue on the sword body glowed with fluorescence in this night, ghostly and evil.

Pei Ye's heart was startled—after several days of persistent gnawing, these things were finally about to reach the core area of this sword. The sharp ice crystals were soon to pierce into the tender red bead.

Pei Ye grabbed it and put it on his lap. This sword trembled gently, as if enduring great pain.

Pei Ye frowned tightly, reached out to stroke the sword body, and said in a low voice: "Bear with it, I will help you immediately."

The salary operated with full strength. This time he didn't aim at one target to swallow, but slowly walked his palm over the entire sword body. This is a stopgap measure. He wants to pull every poisonous snake back, let them temporarily stay away from that red bead, and relieve the pain for Heart-Slicing Glaze.

Pei Ye pressed his hand on the sword, and every inch had to stay for a considerable period of time. And when his hand left the sword tip, nearly two hours had passed, and the sky was dim.

Pei Ye breathed deeply a few times. This was the first time he experienced the fatigue from the salary—it turns out that it is the same as arms and legs, and it will be tired if used too much.

"Now you know how powerful it is?" Pei Ye tapped the sword body lightly and said in a low voice, "Said I would treat you, but you insisted on running."

Heart-Slicing Glaze moved gently on his lap.

"Fine, no problem for now. Let's do this for now, I also need to rest." Pei Ye sighed, "Wait until tomorrow to carefully remove it for you."

Heart-Slicing Glaze floated up gently and drifted to the head of the bed and landed.

Pei Ye pulled up the quilt and lay down to sleep.

Sad news! Starting today, single update for a few days.

Going out for a week due to work, will still try to write every day, not sure which day to restore double updates, anyway, if the manuscript is enough, it will be sent, at the latest no later than the 15th.

The transition chapter is about to end, preparing to start the serious business of the second volume, just to settle the plot.

Thank you to Boss Yan Ben Hu Yan for the reward!!! Also the first alliance leader of this book! Will try to add a chapter for the alliance leader in the next two days. If I can't add it, I will add it after restoring double updates!

Sigh, I really want to become a tentacle monster, writing stories for everyone quickly with quality and quantity.
