Naruto: The strongest fire style Blade Jakka!
Chapter 288 Unexpected Disaster 9
In the dark cave, Li Yi stood quietly, his eyes fixed on the complex formation that imprisoned him, and he could not help but sigh deeply. He knew that his current predicament was due to his extraordinary talent and outstanding ability. A tall tree attracts the wind, and outstanding people are often more likely to become the target of public criticism.
Li Yi showed extraordinary talent since he was young. Whether it was practicing magic or understanding morality, he was far ahead of his peers. His rapid progress amazed his teachers and made his fellow disciples envious. However, along with the praise, there was also endless jealousy and suspicion. Those who could not compare with him began to plant the seeds of resentment in their hearts.
By chance, Li Yi got an ancient secret book during an expedition, which recorded powerful spells and long-lost formations. This should have been a great joy, but it unexpectedly brought him disaster. The news spread quickly, and countless greedy eyes stared at him. Some people tried to take the secret book away, while others wanted to get rid of this potential threat.
Li Yi wanted to keep a low profile, but the wind kept blowing. His excellence was like a beam of light in the dark, no matter how hard he tried to hide it, it could not cover up its brilliance. Finally, on a dark and windy night, he was betrayed by his former best friend and fell into a well-designed trap.
Now, he was trapped in this formation. Although he was unwilling, he also understood that it was all because he was too dazzling. He sighed, not because he regretted his excellence, but because he felt sorry for the human heart in this world. He always believed that a truly strong person must not only have great strength, but also a broad mind and a strong will.
During the days of being trapped, Li Yi did not give up. He began to study the secrets of the formation and tried to find a way to crack it. He knew that only by constantly surpassing himself could he break the current predicament and regain his freedom.
As the days passed, Li Yi's understanding of the formation became deeper and deeper. He found that although the formation was complicated, it also had its own rules. Just like life, the twists and turns on the surface actually contain opportunities for growth. As long as you have hope and face it bravely, there will be no obstacles that you cannot overcome.
Finally, on a sunny morning, Li Yi successfully cracked the formation. He walked out of the cave, took a deep breath of fresh air, and his heart was filled with hope and confidence for the future. He understood that it was true that a tall tree attracts the wind, but precisely because of this, he had to firmly follow his own path and prove his worth with strength and wisdom.
Since then, Li Yi has become more mature and stable. He is still excellent, but no longer ostentatious. He knows that true excellence is not for showing off, but for playing the greatest role at critical moments. He also began to pay attention to the people around him, using his own strength to help those in need, so that more people can feel the power of excellence, rather than threats.
Li Yi's story tells us that there is nothing wrong with excellence itself, but the wrong thing is those who lose themselves because of jealousy. Facing the dilemma of "a tall tree attracts the wind", we should not complain or escape, but move forward bravely and write our own glorious chapter with strength and wisdom.
Between the endless mountains, the mountain gate of Xuantian Sect stands tall, like an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes of life, quietly guarding this ancient land. Li Yi stood in front of the mountain gate, looking at the familiar plaque, and an indescribable complex emotion surged in his heart.
After many years, he finally set foot on this land again. The Xuantian Sect in his memory was so magnificent and full of vitality. But now, although the mountain gate in front of him is still majestic, it can't hide a trace of vicissitudes and loneliness. Li Yi couldn't help but feel guilty, and he thought silently: "I'm sorry, I came back late."
He walked slowly into the mountain gate. The surrounding scene was familiar yet strange, as if time had frozen at this moment. He seemed to see himself practicing here when he was young, the young man with dreams and hopes, who wanted to become the pride of Xuantian Sect. However, the reality was so cruel that he left here for various reasons, leaving behind his beloved master and relatives.
Walking on the familiar road, Li Yi's thoughts drifted back to the past. He remembered the kind face of his master and the laughter of his fellow apprentices. Although those days were full of hardship and sweat, they were the happiest time of his life. He also thought of the disappointed look in his master's eyes when he left, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Li Yi's footsteps echoed in the silent valley, as if telling of his guilt and regret. He knew that he owed Xuantian Sect too much, and owed too much to his master and fellow apprentices. He silently vowed that when he came back this time, he would make up for his mistakes and make his own contribution to Xuantian Sect.
He came to the master's tomb and stood there quietly. The breeze blew by, as if telling of the master's teachings and love. A deep feeling of longing surged in Li Yi's heart. He thought silently: "Master, I'm back. I will definitely not let you down. I will make Xuantian Sect glorious again."
In the following days, Li Yi devoted himself to the reconstruction and development of Xuantian Sect. With the knowledge and skills he learned outside, he solved one problem after another for the sect. He also actively trained newcomers, passed on his experience and skills to them, hoping that they could become the future and hope of Xuantian Sect.
As time went by, Xuantian Sect gradually regained its former vitality and vigor. Li Yi looked at the changes in the sect with great satisfaction and pride. He knew that he had finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish and made up for his past mistakes.
However, the guilt in his heart never completely dissipated. He knew that no matter how much he contributed, he could not completely make up for the regret of having left. But he also understood that life is like this, full of regrets and misses. The important thing is that we must face our past bravely, work hard to make up for our mistakes, and make the future better.
Li Yi stood in front of the mountain gate of Xuantian Sect, looking at the endless mountains, his heart was full of emotion. He knew that this was his root and his home. No matter where he went, his heart would always belong here. He thought silently: "I'm sorry, I came back late. But I will definitely spend the rest of my life to protect this land and Xuantian Sect."
With Li Yi's efforts, Xuantian Sect gradually embarked on the road of revival. And Li Yi also found his own destination and meaning on this land. He used his actions to interpret his loyalty to his master and his guilt for the past. Although he came back late, he wrote a legend of his own with his efforts and dedication.
In that war-torn era, Li Yi was just an unknown swordsman. He wore a ragged straw raincoat, held a long sword, and had a wine gourd hanging from his waist. The wine gourd was his treasure, and he never left it wherever he went.
That day, Li Yi came to a small town. In the tavern in the town, people were talking about the recent war. Some people said that the enemy was approaching, and the morale of the defenders in the city was low, and it might be difficult to resist. Li Yi just smiled slightly after hearing this. He didn't care about these. He only cared about the sword in his hand and the wine on his waist.
He walked into the tavern and asked for a pot of wine. The waiter brought the wine, Li Yi picked up the wine gourd, poured the wine into it, and then drank it in one gulp. The wine tasted like fire, burning his throat, but also made him feel proud. He laughed loudly, and the sound echoed in the tavern.
At this moment, a strong man came over, pointed at Li Yi and said, "What are you laughing at? Aren't you worried about the arrival of the enemy?"
Li Yi glanced at the strong man and said, "Life is only a hundred years long. Why not drink and live happily? As for the war, the generals and soldiers will take care of it."
The strong man was furious, thinking that Li Yi was a coward. He punched Li Yi, but Li Yi dodged it. The strong man became even angrier, and drew his sword, slashing at Li Yi. Li Yi remained sitting, but he picked up the long sword in his hand and swung it lightly. A flash of sword energy passed by, and the strong man's sword broke into two pieces.
Everyone in the tavern was stunned by this scene. They didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary swordsman had such high martial arts skills. But Li Yi continued to drink as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, a woman in white walked into the tavern. She looked at Li Yi and said, "Are you the legendary Sword Immortal Li Yi?"
Li Yi looked up at the woman and said, "The title of Sword Immortal is just a false compliment from the world. I am just a swordsman who likes to drink."
The woman smiled and said, "I heard that your swordsmanship is unrivaled in the world, so I came here to ask for your advice."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "My swordsmanship is just for self-protection. There is nothing special about it."
The woman did not give up and insisted on fighting with Li Yi. Li Yi had no choice but to agree. They came to the open space outside the tavern and drew their swords. Li Yi's swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water, and every sword was full of poetry. The woman's swordsmanship was not weak either, with both offensive and defensive skills. The two fought evenly.
Just as they were fighting, the enemy had already entered the town. The people fled in all directions, crying and shouting. Li Yi saw this scene and frowned. He put down his sword and said to the woman, "Now is not the time to fight, let's go help the people."
The woman nodded and rushed towards the enemy with Li Yi. The long sword in Li Yi's hand was like a silver dragon, and wherever it went, the enemy fell one after another. The woman also assisted from the side, and the two of them were like divine soldiers sent from heaven, and they quickly repelled the enemy.
The townspeople thanked Li Yi and the woman. Li Yi just smiled and said, "This is what I should do." Then he picked up the wine gourd, drank it in one gulp, and continued his journey.
In this chaotic world, Li Yi still travels around with his wine gourd. His swordsmanship is still superb; his wine is still mellow. He is a swordsman and a drinker. He interprets the meaning of life in his own way.
