Roaming the Mortal World with Sword in Hand

The martial world is vast. Some hang a river upside down with a single sword strike; some shake the pillars of heaven with one punch; some ride yellow cranes while subduing dragons; and some gaze upon the sea and comprehend immortality.

Yet the martial world is also small. It has no room for a pair of lovers, and true bonds of loyalty are hard to find.

To me, the martial world is nothing more than drinking when sorrow comes, dancing with a sword when madness strikes. Between heaven, earth, and humankind, there are two things that can truly intoxicate the soul.
