Chapter 226 231, In the future, you will all ascend to my place
Ouyang Feng enjoyed this three-way melee very much.
After Song Que observed the God of War Atlas, although his skills would not increase immediately and still need time to accumulate, his swordsmanship has already reached a level close to the Tao. Each of his swordsmanship is exquisite and contains astonishing power.
With Song Que's current swordsmanship, even if there were someone stronger than him, he could use his understanding of the sword's killing principles to defeat the strong with the weak and kill him with his sword.
Shi Zhixuan, who has recovered from schizophrenia and has improved his Immortal Seal to a higher level, has reached a level where his lightness skills are unpredictable and real is hard to distinguish. He seems to have turned into a demonic shadow that does not exist in reality, shuttling between the sword beams in the sky, using the magic of the cycle of life and death to fight against the two blades that can cut through anything.
Ouyang Feng deliberately suppressed his strength and was far from using his full strength, but in terms of martial arts, he had already exerted his full potential.
Furthermore, as Tian Dao and the Evil King improve in battle, he is constantly evolving and updating his martial arts. His sword skills, body skills, boxing skills, palm skills... are all rising to a higher level.
Suddenly, heavy rain began to fall in the underground cave.
This is a man-made rainstorm.
When Ouyang Feng, Shi Zhixuan and Song Que were fighting, the dissipated energy exploded the lake water, which splashed dozens of feet into the sky and turned into torrential rain that fell from the sky.
The warriors who were gathered in front of the Temple of War God to watch the battle could not see clearly the scene of the three-way melee.
At this time, heavy rain fell, blocking the view. The crowd could not even see the shadows of the three people. They could only see the dazzling light that burst out when the sword energy collided, and hear the deafening sound like thunder.
But no one was willing to leave.
Even though they couldn't see anything clearly, even though they were drenched by the heavy rain, they still tried their best to open their eyes wide, hold their breath, and concentrate, hoping to occasionally catch a glimpse of a piece of armor to verify their own martial arts.
I don’t know how long this rainstorm lasted.
Just as the loud roar seemed to still echo in everyone's ears and the dazzling light seemed to still flash before their eyes, the rainstorm suddenly became smaller and finally stopped.
And on the lake, there was no sight of Ouyang Feng and the other two.
Everyone was bewildered and looked at each other, quite confused.
Until someone whispered:
"They are in the Temple of War!"
Everyone came to their senses at this point and returned to the entrance of the hall. Looking inside, they saw that Ouyang Feng, Song Que and Shi Zhixuan, who had just been fighting on the lake, had returned to the hall at some point. They were each holding a teacup, sitting cross-legged next to the remains of Guangchengzi, discussing something.
This strange situation made everyone feel dazed for a while.
They were still fighting fiercely just now, and it seemed that the fight was going to cause the sky to collapse and the earth to split, but in the blink of an eye, they started to sit down and discuss, and even held a cup of hot tea that came from nowhere...
Is this the style of a top master?
For a moment, everyone present couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in their hearts.
Zhu Yuyan looked at Ouyang Feng and Shi Zhixuan with a complicated expression. They were sitting together drinking tea and talking about martial arts like old friends. Seeing the genuine joyful smiles on their faces, she suddenly had an epiphany.
They no longer care about fame and fortune in the world.
What they are pursuing is something at a higher level.
If I am still trapped in the past, sooner or later I will not even be able to see them sitting high in the clouds, drinking tea and discussing philosophy.
After taking another deep look at the three of them, Zhu Yuyan returned to the Temple of the God of War and continued to observe the God of War Atlas.
The others also woke up as if from a dream, and rushed into the Temple of War God to watch.
Ouyang Feng and the other two did not pay attention to other people's actions and continued to immerse themselves in the discussion.
Regarding spiritual practice, Ouyang Feng's consistent philosophy is "Mount Tai does not reject any soil, so it can become big; rivers and seas do not reject any small streams, so they can become deep." Therefore, even if it is martial arts from the low-level martial arts world, as long as there are one or two shining points, he will absorb its essence.
Shi Zhixuan and Song Que are both the most outstanding top talents of the Twin Dragons World of this era. They originally learned martial arts that were not very outstanding, but they relied on their extraordinary talents, created their own insights, paved their own way, and became the top figures of the era.
Their talents and understanding are beyond doubt, and their insights from observing the God of War Atlas are also invaluable.
So even though Ouyang Feng's realm and strength were far superior to Song Que and Shi Zhixuan, he still communicated with them on an equal footing and discussed martial arts and philosophy.
No one is a saint and cannot be omniscient.
Even Confucius, who was canonized as a saint, had blind spots in knowledge, so he advocated "don't be ashamed to ask questions from those who are less knowledgeable than you."
Ouyang Feng would never be complacent and look down on others just because he was invincible in a certain field. He would listen carefully to all useful ideas, think carefully, and learn from their essence.
Only with such a broad mind can one go higher and further on the road.
Fourth day.
There was another person who discussed Taoism, Ning Daoqi, the Taoist Priest.
There was a circle of listeners surrounding the four people.
Among them were Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, two lucky guys who wandered to Shuzhong at some point in time. Speaking of which, when Kou Zhong was in Dongping County, he gave up the idea of competing for dominance after witnessing Ouyang Feng killing more than a hundred Dongping warriors with a sword. After that, he traveled the world with Xu Ziling just to seek revenge on Li Mi.
After assisting Wang Shichong in defeating Li Mi, causing the Wagang Army to collapse and completely destroying Li Mi's ambition to seize the throne, the two men could be considered to have avenged their great revenge, so they turned back into idle people in the martial arts world, adhering to their nature of loving to join in the fun, chasing after the hot spots in the martial arts world everywhere.
Therefore, it is not surprising that he wandered to Bashu and encountered this martial arts event.
After Song Que and Shi Zhixuan observed the War God Atlas, their realms had reached the level of Grand Master on the spot. Their actual combat skills were further improved after sparring with Ouyang Feng, reaching the level that Ouyang Feng had reached after defeating Bi Xuan.
Ning Daoqi has been practicing Taoism for decades and his realm is already very high. After observing the War God Atlas, his realm has reached a higher level. Although due to his nature and life principles, his killing power is still not as good as those of Song Que and Shi Zhixuan, but in terms of realm alone, he is half a step ahead of the two.
Therefore, the addition of Ning Daoqi made this discussion even more exciting. Sometimes when they encountered some truths that could not be expressed in words, the four of them would go outside the Temple of the God of War and start a melee on the ice lake, directly expressing their own insights with martial arts.
Through such martial arts demonstrations and discussions, the realm and strength of Ning Daoqi, Song Que and Shi Zhixuan certainly made great progress. Ouyang Feng also benefited a lot, and learned the different experiences of the three of them when observing the God of War Atlas.
Of course, he was not stingy with the insights he gained from his practice.
He discussed the various experiences and insights of external skills to cultivate the body, internal skills to cultivate qi, and spiritual mind to cultivate the essence, qi, and spirit, and the simultaneous progress of internal cultivation and internal scenery, and external verification and external scenery.
Although it did not involve specific cultivation methods, but was purely theoretical, those with sufficient understanding could benefit greatly and even feel as if they had found a treasure. If one did not understand enough and was confused by what he said, it was not his fault.
By the fifth day, Zhu Yuyan had gradually untied the knot in her heart and was able to face Shi Zhixuan calmly. Having gained a lot from several days of observation, she finally squeezed into the highest level discussion circle with her years of accumulation and new insights.
Even some up-and-coming talents with amazing comprehension, such as Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Hou Xibai, Kan Kan, Shi Feixuan, Shan Wanjing, Dugu Feng, etc., could occasionally express their thoughts while listening to the five people's discussion.
How much you gain from observing the God of War Atlas depends solely on your understanding, nothing else matters.
Therefore, each person's understanding of the God of War Atlas will not be determined by the level of their martial arts at that time.
Those who have low martial arts skills nowadays may be able to understand more profound and mysterious principles. From now on, they will have a bright future and soar to heaven in the future.
Even those with high martial arts skills may only understand a little bit of the basics, or even completely fail to understand the true meaning, and only barely learn some technical external skills.
Therefore, even though Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and others were young, when they expressed their thoughts, Ouyang Feng, Ning Daoqi, and even the arrogant Song Que and Shi Zhixuan would listen carefully and think carefully. Even when the younger generations asked for advice, Ouyang Feng and others would not hesitate to take action and practice martial arts with them.
Among the discussions on Taoism and martial arts, the ones who made the fastest progress were undoubtedly the two protagonists of the era, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, followed by Kankan, Shi Feixuan, Shan Wanjing, Dugu Feng, and Hou Xibai.
On the sixth day, the four great Buddhist monks arrived and discussed Buddhism with Shi Zhixuan in a friendly manner, as if there had never been any grudge between them.
On the seventh day, the Temple of War God was about to disappear into the void, and this unprecedented martial arts event was also about to end.
Everyone reluctantly left the Temple of War God and returned to the ground. Before leaving, everyone paid great tribute to Ouyang Feng.
Although the vast majority of warriors were unable to comprehend the true meaning of the God of War Atlas, at least they gained some knowledge in martial arts, and also benefited a lot from discussions with top masters. Almost all the warriors present made great progress in martial arts.
They should remember where their water came from. Of course, they should thank Ouyang Feng for opening the Temple of War, setting the rules of peace, and benefiting all those who abide by the rules.
Ning Daoqi, Shi Zhixuan, Song Que, the Four Holy Monks and others also paid their respects to Ouyang Feng.
Compared with ordinary warriors, they benefited more.
It can be said that "The Atlas of the God of War" allowed them to truly touch the path they each pursued. Regardless of whether they succeed or not in the future, they have to thank Ouyang Feng.
When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling said goodbye, they paid tribute to Ouyang Feng as their teacher.
Ouyang Feng stood at the entrance of the hall and watched everyone leave.
In the end, only Shan Meixian, Shan Wanjing, Dugu Feng and Bai Qing'er were left by his side.
"You guys go first too."
He said to Shan Meixian and the others.
Shan Meixian and the others didn't ask any more questions. They went down the stone steps, stepped onto the ice bridge, and walked towards the lakeshore.
After the four people left.
A faint fragrance blew, and Zhu Yuyan appeared from behind a big rock. She came in front of Ouyang Feng, untied her veil, revealing her queenly aura that was somewhat similar to Shan Meixian, but more graceful and elegant than Shan Meixian. She looked like she was only in her twenties, with skin as delicate and fair as jade.
Afterwards, she prostrated herself on the ground and bowed to Ouyang Feng:
"Yuyan was able to resolve her heart knot today and replenish herself with the War God Atlas, all thanks to the Supreme Grandmaster. Please accept Yuyan's greeting!"
Ouyang Feng accepted her gift, and feeling her aura that seemed to be about to break through the barrier and reach a higher level, he nodded and said:
"Opportunities are rare, so take care of yourself."
"Yes."
Zhu Yuyan bowed again, then stood up, bit her pink lips lightly with her snow-white teeth, and said softly:
"Will there be another chance to meet the Supreme Grand Master in the future?"
She had an inexplicable intuition.
From today onwards, the supreme grandmaster Ouyang Feng may never walk the world again.
Ouyang Feng looked at the dragon swimming on the ice lake below and said:
"If I can achieve enlightenment in the future, maybe we will meet again."
Become enlightened?
Although she had replenished herself, Zhu Yuyan was not sure whether she could achieve enlightenment, and she couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.
After a moment of silence, she continued softly:
"A mere bow cannot satisfy Yuyan's heart. I wonder if the Supreme Grandmaster is free tonight? Yuyan wants to hold a small banquet to thank the Grandmaster for his kindness."
A small banquet?
Ouyang Feng turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuyan's tall and slender figure with curvaceous curves like the undulating mountains and rivers, and then looked at her beautiful and charming face, and nodded: "Yes."
Zhu Yuyan's eyes showed surprise, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles. After telling the location of the banquet, she bowed to Ouyang Feng:
"In that case, I will wait patiently for the arrival of the Supreme Grand Master tonight."
After saying that, she smiled at him and left.
As Zhu Yuyan left.
Ouyang Feng was the only one left in the Temple of War God.
He looked back at the Temple of War God, and a subtle smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his lips.
Those who have attained enlightenment through the War God Atlas will have a predetermined destination if they become enlightened in the future.
But this time, the Temple of War God was pulled out by the Mirror of All Heaven.
The Tongtian Baojian also incorporates the fragments of the bronze gate of the "Gate of All Worlds".
Therefore, all the people who came to observe the God of War Atlas this time had a connection with Ouyang Feng.
Even their fate was changed because of Ouyang Feng.
Because in this world, in this era, no one among the older generation can achieve enlightenment.
Even among the new generation, except for Kou and Xu, the others, no matter how talented they are, such as Kankan, Shi Feixuan, etc., will be trapped in the mundane world in the future.
It not only creates a connection but also changes destiny. During these seven days, those who gain something in the Temple of the God of War, if they can achieve enlightenment and break through the void in the future, they may be led by the Mirror of All Heaven to Ouyang Feng's paradise.
Of course, by that time, his paradise may have evolved into a real paradise on earth.
"As long as I can keep going, one day in the future, this blessed land may even evolve into a fairyland..."
After looking forward to the future for a while and calculating the time for the God of War Atlas to disappear into the void, Ouyang Feng saw that there was little time left, so he went to the lake and said goodbye to the dragon.
This dragon was too ugly, with green hair on its head. It had no special abilities except for its immense strength and sturdiness, so it was not suitable as a mount. Besides, it was guarded by the Temple of the God of War. God knew if it could continue to grow or even survive without the Temple of the God of War, so Ouyang Feng did not plan to take it away.
After bidding farewell to the dragon, he summoned a bronze gate, stepped into it, left the Temple of War God, and returned to the cottage in the deep forest.
Shi Qingxuan seemed to have anticipated that Shi Zhixuan would go to the Temple of War God, so she had not been there for the past seven days.
But it doesn’t matter.
Over the past seven days, Ouyang Feng has been digesting the insights of others from observing the God of War Atlas, and he has not observed the God of War Atlas himself.
However, the God of War Atlas has been copied down in the Tongtian Baojian, so anyone can view it at any time if they want to.
