Chapter 568 No Retreat

I listened quietly as Qiao Gongliang finished speaking before asking, "And now?"

Qiao Gongliang said, "Now, I just want to get rid of that coffin as soon as possible."

"Before, I didn't cooperate with the Yang Jian Jie Ming Ren, and even killed a few of them. I only did it to buy some time so I could move that coffin out."

"Now, I don't have time anymore. So, I want to ask you to move that coffin. After it's done, I'll go back to the underworld with you."

I said in a deep voice, "Are you negotiating with me?"

"If you have to think that way, it's not impossible," Qiao Gongliang laughed. "I don't dare come out to see you, and you can't find my whereabouts. It can be said that no one can do anything to anyone. If this stalemate continues, it won't do you any good."

"You can think about it first. When you've thought it over, you can call me. I'm nearby."

As Qiao Gongliang sneered and left, my hands at my sides clenched, causing a few cracking sounds.

Feng Ruoxing raised his hand and placed a few spiritual talismans around us, "My talismans can isolate us from the outside world. Qiao Gongliang can't hear what we're saying! Li Po, what do you decide?"

I gritted my teeth and said, "Negotiate with me? Who has ever heard of a Yang Jian Jie Ming Ren negotiating with a ghost when threatened? I won't accept it!"

I turned my head to look at the tombs by the river, "Even if I have to give up this mission, I will make Qiao Gongliang disappear into ashes."

Feng Ruoxing persuaded, "Li Po, I know you're angry, but from a long-term perspective, this mission is very important to you. As long as we can bring Qiao Gongliang back to the underworld, why should you care about the process?"

I said coldly, "No way! If I compromise with a ghost today, I can make concessions to a second ghost tomorrow."

"The heart of a swordsman would rather die than yield."

"After one step back, my saber will be ruined!"

The people who taught me how to use a saber were not just my master, but also Gui Si, the saber soul.

My master taught me the moves, but Gui Si only taught me how to enter the Dao with a saber.

The saber soul told me that it was easy for those who cultivated with the sword to enter the Dao, but difficult for those who cultivated with the saber. Therefore, the sword had the Dao of the Sword, but the saber only had the Momentum of the Saber.

The sword is the monarch of all weapons, and the ancestor of short weapons. It can be changed in a thousand ways, and the Sword Intent, Sword Heart, and Sword Dao are also unconventional.

The saber is the king of all weapons, and also bears the courage of all weapons. Except for moving forward, there is no other way to go. Your dual sabers have already weakened the way of using the saber. You can't bring the saber's domineering and madness to the extreme, and you can never even think about proving the Dao with the saber.

If you can't guard your own Saber Heart, then don't use the saber anymore. Once the Saber Heart is broken, the saber in your hand will be useless.

Saber Heart and Saber Intent have only one purpose: to move forward without ever retreating.

At that time, I asked the saber soul: Have you proven the Dao?

The saber soul told me that his realm had only stopped at the realm of Saber Heart and Saber Soul; the saber was his heart and he was the soul of the saber. Only by jumping out of this step could one prove the Dao.

I had a feeling that the saber soul wasn't that he couldn't jump out, but that he didn't want to jump out. The saber had a special meaning for him. Once he jumped out, he would no longer have a saber.

Leaving aside the secrets of the saber soul, my Saber Heart was also taught by the saber soul. Once the Saber Heart was broken, my saber would be useless.

From any point of view, I couldn't retreat.

Ye Yang said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do? Kill people, or open mountains?"

I squinted my eyes and said, "Doesn't Qiao Gongliang want the Feng Shui treasure-hole? Let's break his Feng Shui first! You come!"

Ye Yang looked at the tombs across from him, "Give me half an hour, and you have to cooperate with me!"

From a Feng Shui master's point of view, it wasn't easy to destroy a Feng Shui grand formation. In ancient times, at least thousands of strong laborers would have to be used to open mountains, break canals, cut off earth veins, or destroy their forms.

Most of the emperors in history did things like that when they beheaded dragon veins. For example, Zhao Guangyi once sent troops to level a mountain, cutting off the dragon vein of Zhoushan, which was the legendary "pulling out the dragon's horn."

Although the Feng Shui tomb in front of me wasn't a dragon vein, it was also a Feng Shui formation formed by three mountain peaks. If an ordinary Feng Shui master were to break the formation, they would definitely choose to dig away one side of the mountain so that the chair would be unstable. Or they would directly blow off the back of the chair, leaving the person sitting in the chair with nowhere to lean on.

However, such actions were too big. It was one thing for sorcerers to fight in dark places, but it was another thing to use explosives to open mountains.

Ye Yang gestured under the mountain for a while and said, "Stupid dog, if you use your divine sense to control your sabers, what's the farthest distance you can sense between you and your weapons?"

I estimated, "At most fifty meters. It's impossible to go any further. The ideal distance is forty meters."

"That's about right!" Ye Yang pointed to the distance, "Insert Bai Zhou there, put Zi Ye two steps to the left, and put Zhan Ming Dao behind you as the back of a chair. You sit in the middle!"

Ye Yang said in a deep voice, "The secrets of Feng Shui are nothing more than the inheritance of the three veins of Heaven, Earth, and Man. I'm using the secrets of humanity. People are the main body of the Feng Shui formation. No matter what happens on our side, don't move. Once you move, the Feng Shui formation will be broken. Do you understand?"
