Infinite Road Warrior Road

Wang Zongchao asked all the warriors to swear to him, but what he wanted was not to make all the warriors obey him from now on, treat every word he said as the truth, and worship him as a true god.If he really did this, he would at most become an evil god who deceived others' beliefs. Although his power could be strong for a while, he would eventually decay and fall.There is a saying that should be noted: "You can deceive a few people for a long time, and you can deceive the majority for a short time, but it is absolutely impossible to deceive the majority for a long time." Such a god will eventually die out as believers gradually awaken and lose.

Therefore, Wang Zongchao didn't need anyone to worship him, or obey his orders, but he wanted everyone to abide by the rules he made.

So what should be the rules?

"Respect nature, respect heaven and earth, love family and country, be filial to parents, respect teachers, be strict with oneself, and be lenient to others. The best kindness is like water, benefit without competition"

"Rich and noble can't be promiscuous, the poor and the lowly can't be moved, and the mighty can't be subdued."

"Walking justice for the heavens, helping the poor and helping the poor, eliminating violence and bringing peace to the good"

"Humility, Honor, Sacrifice, Valor, Mercy, Honesty, Spirit, Justice"

"Clear love and hate, consistent words and deeds, self-disregard for public affairs, self-discipline, pleasure in helping others, and serving the people"

"With great power comes great responsibility."

...Of course, this is just a joke. If all these requirements are raised, needless to say, at least half of the people present will be scared away. Even Wang Zongchao himself will not be able to meet the requirements.

Therefore, the rules formulated by Wang Zongchao are not strict, and they can even be called loose.

"The first rule: be honest with people first, and then be honest with warriors."

"Article [-]: Good and evil should be rewarded, and grievances should be paid."

"The third rule: "Don't do to others what you don't want, and don't force what you want. "

There are three rules, the first one is to be followed first, here "sincerity" refers generally, including "integrity", "sincerity", "sincerity", "sincerity" and other meanings, if warriors cannot be "sincere in martial arts", then undoubtedly It is no longer worthy of being called a warrior, but before that, it is necessary to be "sincere to others".

"Be honest with others", the people here include themselves and others. A warrior is first of all a person, not a machine that can only perform martial arts. Therefore, as a person, you must first face up to your emotions, desires and heart, and face up to yourself. RESPONSIBILITY TO OTHERS.

This rule naturally excludes the practice of abandoning wives and children for the pursuit of martial arts, regardless of the life and death of fathers, relatives and friends, the survival of the nation and the nation, and even killing people to practice martial arts.Just because no matter what kind of way, you must put a bright light in your heart to guide the direction. The closer you get, the warmer and fuller you will be.The sword is ruthless, and the man is affectionate. To give up emotion for the sake of the sword is to give up the root and chase the end.If there are no relatives and friends in the heart, there will be no constraints and fetters. Although it can also achieve the ultimate in martial arts, it will lose yourself and trap you in emptiness, loneliness and confusion.It is human beings who perform martial arts, even if they sacrifice themselves, they fall behind in the ultimate way.

Of course, this does not require you to give endlessly. When you believe that you have fulfilled your responsibilities, do not lose your heart, and do not leave any regrets, you can still devote yourself to martial arts.If you are an orphan with no father, no mother, no relatives, no friends, no wife, no children, and you live in isolation and have no contact with others, you have no responsibility for others. You can be a martial arts nerd who is obsessed with martial arts, and that is not considered. violate this rule.So if you want to devote yourself to martial arts, in addition to fulfilling your responsibilities, you should also try to reduce unnecessary mundane affairs, such as running around to flirt, but when it's time to practice martial arts, you completely forget about others.

The first rule is the requirements for the warrior's state of mind and the warrior's self-improvement.As for the second rule, it is a basic philosophy of life.In fact, "good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil" is also the idea in the hearts of every person whose mind is not too distorted, but warriors have more ability to realize it or destroy it than ordinary people.This rule does not require you to be desperate to achieve it, but it requires that your behavior at least not violate it. If you can’t "scream when you see the injustice" or "shovel when you see the injustice", at least you can’t help the evildoers or do evil by yourself. do everything.In addition, warriors have a clear distinction between grievances and grievances. If there is a favor, you must repay it, and if you have a grudge, you must repay it. Don't let your heart be wronged, and don't let your heart be wronged. This is also what a good man should do.But relatively, this rule still gives priority to the first half of the sentence, and resolving personal grievances must not be contrary to good and evil.

The third rule is intended to allow warriors, especially powerful warriors, to maintain a proper state of detachment, and not to intervene too much in secular disputes, and it is also a minimum limit.Just because the second rule has a good original intention, but after all, the concept of good and evil in each era and everyone is different. If everyone insists on their own concept of good and evil, and must force others to abide by it, then It is very likely that there will be "justice madness" who will harm the world, and do things such as forcing widows to die for their husbands and throwing themselves into wells.Therefore, it is best not to impose your own ideas on others while using yourself to judge others.

The three rules, in principle, take precedence in the event of a conflict.For example, two people confront each other with swords, A is right and the other is evil, and neither will give in. At this time, if A strictly abides by "Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to you", wouldn't it be tragic?Of course A does not want to be killed, so why not kill B who wants to kill him?In that case, naturally the first two rules take precedence.

Another example is that the first rule is mainly "personal relationship", and the second rule is mainly "axiom". The reason why "private relationship" is placed before "axiom" is because everyone has a self-interested nature. It is very unlikely that the martial arts learned through hard work should not be used to win for oneself, not for the benefit of oneself, relatives, friends and teachers, but only be used for fighting for justice.Moreover, when a person deals with others, there will always be differences between close and distant relatives. It is impossible to expect everyone to be fair and selfless. When relatives and friends fall into the water at the same time as people they don’t know, it is normal to rescue relatives and friends first; Human beings are also human nature; when dealing with the outside world, it is even more natural to agree with one's compatriots but not with foreigners, and this is understandable.

Of course, it does not mean that because of the previous rules, the latter rules can be trampled on. For example, killing thousands of innocent people just for the life of one of their relatives is still a serious violation.

Basically, as long as one of the three rules is in place, and the other two rules are not excessively violated, Wang Zongchao's requirements will be met.According to this standard, although Wuming, Wu Wudi, Huangying, Xiehuang, Fengyun and others have their own shortcomings, they all meet, but Xiongba, Sword Demon, and Boxing God are undoubtedly all excluded.

In addition, Wang Zongchao only stated that those who are willing to take the oath shall not break the contract from now on. Regardless of the past, even people like Duanlang will not be excluded as long as they ensure that they will abide by the contract in the future.

Wang Zongchao told everyone the three rules word by word.

There is no extravagant ornate scene, but the words are plain, inside and outside the Baijian Villa, which can be heard from a hundred miles away.

There is nothing to be misunderstood and distorted, because Wang Zongchao has already passed all the true meanings of the rules directly into people's hearts in a form similar to mantra oracle through the "Inviting God Dafa".

In this era, the moral code of literati emphasizes "filial piety, loyalty, propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame". The requirements are very high, and the explanation is quite cumbersome and sophisticated, but in the end, few people can meet the requirements.There are many people in the Jianghu who are even big bosses who can't read the big characters. They don't like literati at all. Although each sect and sect have their own rules, most of them prioritize the interests of their own sect. , the priority is to ensure the status of the head elders, and other random copying of literati's things, but no matter how beautiful those things are, they are often just clichés.

Therefore, this is the first time they have heard such a plain and unpretentious request, which seems to be not difficult for themselves, and is close to the hearts of the people... After a moment of silence, Wuming spoke first: "Wuming from Shanye Village, I would like to make three promises from now on."

In fact, with the nameless Heavenly Sword practice, even without Wang Zongchao's protection, he would not lose his mind even if he went deep into the Nine Spaces Unbounded, and with his unshakable arrogance, he would not accept anyone's protection, but he was the first to swear an oath to accept Wang Zongchao's agreement, It also expressed his support for it.

He has been completely disappointed with the constant fighting and intrigue in Jianghu. He has experienced all kinds of unforgettable pain. He naturally knows best what a feat and kindness Wang Zongchao's agreement will be if it can become an agreement kept by warriors together, so he does not hesitate to let it go. Keep a low profile and be the first to swear an oath.

"The poor monk, Buxu, is willing to abide by these three covenants!" With the same thoughts as Wuming, Buxu also swore an oath. Wang Zongchao's proposition does not violate the principles of Zen Buddhism, and it is easier to abide by and more feasible. His attitude also shows the support and recognition of Zen Buddhism.

"Poor monk Shi Wuzun, willing to keep these three covenants!"

"Junior Duguming, I am willing to keep these three promises!"

"My lord, Qin Shuang, is willing to keep the three promises!"

"Bu Jingyun is willing to keep the three promises!"

"Nie Feng, I wish..."

"Subordinate Duanlang, wish..."

All of a sudden, tens of thousands of people took oaths one after another, converging into a mighty and boundless wave of sound, which completely suppressed the sound of the waves not far away.

In the dark, beyond what ordinary people can perceive with the naked eye, a statue of a golden-armored giant god appeared on top of Wang Zongchao's head. The more people swear the oath, the bigger and magnificent the giant statue will be, and then it will suddenly dissipate, transforming It is countless glazed light spots, scattered into the crowd.

Every person who sincerely swears an oath is also attached with a trace of divine power. With the support of this divine power, Wang Zongchao can pull them into "Nine Spaces Without Boundaries" and keep their minds in "Nine Spaces Without Boundaries". lose.After Wang Zongchao succeeded in enshrining the gods and completely controlling Nine Spaces Unbounded, with this trace of divine power, warriors whose xinxing cultivation level meets certain requirements can even enter and leave Nine Spaces Unbounded by themselves.

However, this ray of divine power will continue to grow, and it will also change qualitatively with the degree of their compliance with the three treaties. If someone commits crimes and breaks the contract, then the alienation and distortion of one's own state of mind, guilt, and the resentment of the people he victimized towards him The thought of cursing will make the divine power gradually turn negative, not only will it repel them to enter the Nine Spaces, but it will also cause negative effects such as lethargy, restlessness, and chaos on their minds, and make this person form a sinister and ominous temperament to the outside world , to remind ordinary people to be vigilant, and to remind other warriors to eliminate evil and defend the way.

As for those who abide by the agreement, or even do it extremely well, this ray of divine power will be transformed to the front, forming a kind of blessing similar to "inferior grade asking God", which will increase the momentum against the enemy, and it will also allow them to enter the depths of Nine Space Unbounded .To a certain extent, the more consistent the behavior of these warriors is with Wang Zongchao's proposition, the greater the authority they will get in Nine Spaces Unbounded.

Wang Zongchao has no intention of forcing others to abide by his "Tao", so anyone must swear sincerely to trigger the divine power, and those who don't agree with each other will miss it.Although it is impossible for everyone to abide by it, he can guarantee that in the future, warriors who abide by the agreement will be stronger than those who do not, and those who do evil can no longer be unscrupulous, that is enough.

This divine power also has a hidden nature: those who think about Huaxia and identify with Huaxia will have a positive effect of the divine power obtained. On the contrary, those who do not agree with Huaxia, or even hate it, will have a reduced positive effect, while the negative effect will be reversed.All of this is based on the heart, regardless of blood, regardless of origin, in short, those who enter China are Huaxia, and those who enter Yidi are Yidi!

A mirage-like illusory and unreal feeling enveloped the audience, and the scenery changed rapidly. Countless warriors who had just sworn oaths felt dizzy for a while, and then realized that they had soared straight up, rushing towards the clouds, and the vicissitudes of life under their feet were endlessly majestic.

"Why is the ground under our feet round?"

As the altitude climbed rapidly, even into space, many people were surprised to find a series of facts that overturned their common sense.

"I see. No wonder it was still dusk in the Western Regions before, but it was already night in Dongpu..."

"The earth is spinning endlessly, no wonder the stars in the sky are participating in the Big Dipper..."

"It's no wonder that when I practice qi into a stance, I always feel that the earth is turning endlessly. Before, it was a hallucination. It turns out..."

Many martial arts are derived from the nature of heaven and earth, but unfortunately limited to ancient astronomy and geography, there are often some slight deviations in their cultivation. At this time, they use the Nine Spaces to enter the sky and enter the earth, and their hearts are suddenly enlightened, and many unknown things are fully understood.With the revision of the world view of this group of warriors, I don't know what new and unique martial arts will be born.

But all these shocks are just appetizers. Suddenly, the earth reverses, time goes back, and time reverses, which has pulled everyone's minds to the long-gone past time.

Suddenly plunged into the grotesque, endless time waiting for the light, just like a person falling into the huge waves of the ocean, it made countless people flustered, but they calmed down immediately because they realized that there was a huge and incomparably huge abyss under their feet. The body of the giant dragon, spanning the long river of time, is like a beam of the sea, keeping them in the endless river from being submerged by huge waves. Not only that, standing on the bridge, you can also observe everything in the river at a glance. scenery.

The crowd was dazzled, and they saw many earth-shattering martial arts and duels that were annihilated in the past one by one:

Twenty-Three Swords of Mietian and Judi...Wuming vs. Jue Wushen's army, Battle of Shanhaiguan...Wuming vs. Breaking Army, Battle of Sword Sect...Wuming, Battle of Sword Master...100 years ago, the battle of the Chihuo Patriarch who was rampant in the rivers and lakes "Red Fire Divine Art"... 300 years ago, the battle between Wu Wuer and Yun Dingtian... In the early Tang Dynasty, the "Canglong Emperor Sword" created by the three heroes of Fengchen and the bearded man, and the "Three Wonders of Fengyunshuang" created by Li Jing... ...Three Kingdoms, Hulao Pass, Sanying battle Lu Bu...Da Moxi came, crossed the river with a reed...The Yuantian Sword Art created by Jianbei...The first sword technique created by the great swordsman...Countless images, They appeared one after another, and the insufficiency was one, and the flow seemed to be extremely fast and extremely slow, and countless thousands of years were annihilated in the long river of time and space. It is fascinating to come out, it is unbelievable that this kind of martial arts existed in the world... Although it is only to watch the battle, you can only observe the changes in moves, and you can only feel the momentum, but this is enough to broaden everyone's horizons to a level that was unattainable in the past. Measurable situation.Just as if the ancients thousands of years ago could travel to the future and observe everything in the future society, it is completely conceivable what changes this would bring to their concepts and what kind of changes it would bring to ancient society?

As long as time passes, many unimaginable martial arts that have been lost for a long time will not be difficult to reappear one by one, and the martial arts level of the entire Central Plains martial arts will surely rise to a new level.

But at this moment, the endless dark wind and mist, with the billowing mysterious magic sound, surged madly, forming a huge golem, just blocking the way for everyone to turn back.

"Mokui, you really can't help but make a move." Wang Zongchao had expected it, and said with a long smile: "This will save me playing hide-and-seek with you in Nine Space and Unbounded, so let's take this opportunity to end it! "

Mokui was stuck at the entrance and exit of the Sword Realm before, and then fell into the Nine Space Unbounded, and many people failed to see its image clearly.Now it has revealed its real image from the front, only a pair of extremely evil eyes and a big bloody mouth on his face, but no nose, the light is collapsed, and there are endless emotions in his pupils Negative emotions such as horror, ferocity, violence, destruction, viciousness, cunning, distortion, insidiousness, etc.It seems to be the embodiment of all the ugliness of human nature between heaven and earth.

Compared with in the sword world, Mokui's power has not been weakened, and it seems that he has become more vicious, fiercer and stronger because of absorbing various negative emotions in Jiukongwujie.

"I originally thought that you were just a junior who planned to learn martial arts in the sword world, but I didn't expect you to be a madman who hopes to become a god!" Mo Kui let out a burst of thunderous laughter, and the sound waves vibrated. Suddenly, the faces of many warriors changed. Formed into nothingness.

In Nine Space Unbounded, it can only be a spiritual battle. All physical and internal forces will be useless. If you lose, you will lose your body and spirit, and your mind will completely disappear in the long river of time and space, without any chance to turn around.

Suddenly, the image of the devil leader has swelled to a height of hundreds of feet, and a pair of devil claws with a suffocating and destructive momentum, captured the sky and covered the sky, and they were about to tear off the dragon body transformed by Wang Zongchao with dragon energy. Wang Zongchao and his group were completely lost in Nine Space Unbounded.

The devil's palm seemed to be covered by a boundless dark cloud, and the devil's attack was so fierce that there was no one in the world in martial arts.

Before Wang Zong surpassed his hand, a long sword with a whole body straight, like a measure of heaven and heart, and awe-inspiring and unyielding like a ruler, was already slashed across the sky. .

But it was a nameless shot, the Heavenly Sword descends the devil!

"Dare to compete with this deity in sword skills!" Mo Kui grinned grimly, swiping his five fingers, his sword aura was like a locust, with a destructive sword intent that couldn't be described enough to be quick, domineering, violent, vicious, and evil. The sea is rolling like a storm.

There is no mercy, no forgiveness, no righteousness, no bright and beautiful things, the only thing that is contained is the ruthless massacre, the great destruction.

(To be continued)
