Chapter 212 Tianhe Past

The blue phoenix flapped its wings, flew across the sky, and flew towards the Jiushan Sect carrying Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang.

Its big round head kept looking back at its back, its eyes looking a little aggrieved and a little curious.

Zheng Fa sat on its back, supporting his head with a frown on his face, as if he had something difficult to solve.

"Junior Brother Zheng, what are you thinking about? Why do you look unhappy?" Senior Sister Yuan's tone was full of flattery, as if she wanted to make up for the beastly nature she had exposed some time ago: "Didn't Xiao Yuying say that your Taoist body is very powerful? Shouldn't you be happy?"

Senior Sister Yuan's voice came from Qingluan's mouth.

"I was just thinking about what Fairy Xiao said." Zheng Fa replied, sorting out his doubts unconsciously: "Tao body is a ticket to the Tao, so what is the Tao..."

"Why can the Tao only accommodate a limited number of monks?"

"And is this method of cultivation correct?"

The more Zheng Fa spoke, the more confused he became.

A hint of human confusion appeared on Senior Sister Yuan’s bird-like face.

She turned her head and glanced at Senior Sister Zhang, and asked, "Why is it wrong? There are so many gods in our Xuanwei Realm, don't they all practice this way?"

A sentence suddenly popped up in Zheng Fa's mind: Has it always been like this? Is it right?

Senior Sister Zhang shook her head. It was unclear whether she didn’t understand Zheng Fa or didn’t want to explain it to Senior Sister Yuan.

She just looked at Zheng Fa, as if she didn't want to disturb his thoughts.

But one person insisted on disturbing.

"What Xiao Yuying said is all bullshit!"

A short figure suddenly landed on Senior Sister Yuan’s back. It was the Canyang Sword Immortal, and next to him was a confused Yan Wushuang.

Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang looked at the newcomers in surprise, wondering how these two people suddenly appeared.

Senior Sister Yuan felt very uncomfortable with the two uninvited guests on her back, and she flapped her wings as if trying to shake them off.

Old Han flicked his hand, and one of Senior Sister Yuan's favorite Danyang fruits flew from his fingertips to Senior Sister Yuan's beak. Senior Sister Yuan swallowed the fruit in one gulp, and flew even more steadily and faster than before.

"Brother Yan?"

Zheng Fa glanced at the two of them, and first greeted Yan Wushuang, who he was more familiar with, and asked him why he came with his expression.

"Brother Zheng..." Yan Wushuang sighed, "I'm even more confused than you."

"It's not about this kid. I came to find you." Old Han said, "I brought this kid with me because I was afraid he would be killed."

There was a tone in his voice that suggested that Yan Wushuang was a burden.

"Then... why did Master Han come to me for something?"

"I'm afraid that you'll be led astray by that Xiao Yuying!" Old Han snorted, "You clearly have the talent to rival the Grandmaster, but you're following the path of that bunch of shit."

“…”

Everyone present looked confused.

Old Han paused, as if wondering where to start.

"In fact, I also embarked on the path of becoming a god back then."

"Mr. Han?" Yan Wushuang asked in surprise.

Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang also widened their eyes.

This Sword Immortal Canyang is extremely famous in the Xuanwei Realm. Everyone knows that he is one of the strongest late Nascent Soul cultivators, but this person has yet to advance to the Divine Transformation stage. Everyone thinks that he is not qualified enough or lacks resources.

"I took a step forward several times, but then stepped back."

Old Han said something that surprised Zheng Fa and the others even more.

Is it possible to "regress" after advancing to the God Transformation stage?

Don't you have to respect the threshold of becoming a god? You can come in and out as you please.

This old man's abilities far exceed the rumors in the Xuanwei world and everyone's impression of him.

Yan Wushuang asked in confusion: "Why is this..."

"I'm scared..."

Even Zheng Fa did not expect that this person would actually say these three words. With his ability, how terrifying would it be to have something in this world that could scare him or even make him give up advancing to the God Transformation stage? "What are you afraid of, Mr. Han?" Yan Wushuang asked.

“I’m afraid I’m not myself anymore!”

When Mr. Han said this, his eyes suddenly looked at Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment, and suddenly something dawned on him.

…

"It seems that you understand something." Old Han smiled softly and said, "This is one of the reasons why the founder destroyed mountains and temples and confiscated all the martial arts in the world."

"Is this what Reverend Tianhe is doing? Isn't it to improve his cultivation?"

Zheng Fa couldn't help feeling a little confused. He knew that the ancestor this person was talking about could only be the Venerable Tianhe.

"Both, but the main reason is actually this." Han Lao's words even surprised Yan Wushuang, the son of the Tianhe Sect's head. "In his later years, the founder actually did not practice the current immortal methods... Those classics were only for his reference, and were of no great use to his practice."

“…”

Zheng Fa was surprised.

This is different from the Venerable Tianhe that I heard from Senior Sister Zhang before.

When Zheng Fa first heard about what Venerable Tianhe had done, he felt a little sad. This person had great ambitions, but he seemed to have a very bad temper, and he seemed to have a attitude that those who obey me will prosper, and those who disobey me will perish.

Now that I heard it, there was an extra reason? "The idea of ​​the ancestor was to break off the immortal cultivation tradition of the previous era and replace it with a new method."

"New method? The method of the natal spiritual treasure?" Zheng Fa asked.

This method of refining the innate spiritual treasure is now the best method for the Jindan stage to break through to the Yuanying stage.

"What's this little trick?" Old Han sneered, "In the Xuanwei Realm today, there is no new method of the Venerable, but only the old method of the last era."

“…”

The others became more confused the more they listened.

Yan Wushuang was even more shocked: "Old Han, why did the founder cut off the inheritance of immortal cultivation? And aren't we the descendants of the founder, Tianhe Sect?"

Old Han sighed and said, "If I hadn't heard a lot with my ears, I wouldn't have known many secrets."

He looked at the sky, his eyes full of cloudiness.

"Spiritual energy has been rising and falling since ancient times, and cultivators of our generation have long been exploring the source of spiritual energy." Elder Han suddenly started talking about something that happened a long time ago: "This matter is actually very easy to guess. Everyone who has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage will receive guidance from the top of his head. This spiritual energy should come from the outside world."

Zheng Fa and others nodded.

"Although our current cultivation method seems to be something we have comprehended, it is actually influenced by the guidance after we became spirits." Old Han added: "It also comes from the outside world."

This sounds quite reasonable.

"In fact, we have already reached a consensus on this matter. But the Venerable proposed another idea!" Han Lao's tone suddenly became heavier: "This foreign method is not compatible with this world!"

“…”

Zheng Fa's eyes widened. He had many doubts in his mind:

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The biggest doubt is that the rune diagram is too complicated! So many powerful people have written their own rules, and these rules are still useful.

This thing is almost endless! Even for people in the Xuanwei Realm who don't understand topology, just a rune system is enough to make them collapse.

"The reason given by the ancestor is that no one in this world can ascend to heaven!"

"The ancestor even asserted that above the stage of incarnation, one is practicing towards the state of non-self."

“…”

"Not me?"

"I haven't achieved the state of incarnation yet, so I don't understand all of this." Old Han shook his head and said, "It's just that the ancestor once left a few words, saying that above the state of incarnation, it may seem that I am practicing, but I am actually practicing the fruits of others' Tao."

"This... is why there is a saying of fighting for the Dao above the Divine Transformation Realm?"

"Exactly!" Old Han snorted coldly, "This is where Xiao Yuying is confused. The ancestor once said that the Tao should be infinite. How can there be room for a few people?"

"Only those outsiders who don't conform to the Xuanwei world will have such restrictions!"

"It's just because this path is all man-made and is inherently limited!"

"Therefore, the ancestor is determined to break the old law and create a new law for the Xuanwei world!" Old Han's eyes were hazy, and it was unknown what he was thinking: "The ancestor wants to solve this problem."

Everyone was a little silent.

The name of Venerable Tianhe is known to everyone in the world, but almost no one knows about this matter.

"He failed?"

"Yes." Old Han sighed and said, "The founder was too arrogant and too confident... He didn't expect that he would be deserted by his friends and relatives in the end, and had to raise his sword to fight the sky for the last time!"

"Master Han? Why haven't these things been heard in my Tianhe Sect?"

Yan Wushuang was stunned and couldn't help asking.

"Hey, didn't you hear me? The master was deserted by his friends in the end! Then let me ask you, who betrayed him?"

"I……"

"The Grandmaster is too naive. He thinks that everyone will be like him, willing to do their best to open up new paths for future generations. But not everyone is like him. Some people just want to survive in the decline of their spiritual power. They follow the Grandmaster not because they agree with his ideas, but because he is the strongest."

“When the new law stalled, everything changed.”

"The master's teacher practiced the old method, and the master's fellow disciples also practiced the old method. In the end, the master's disciples could not help but find the old method to practice."

"The Demon Ancestor has risen again, and there is unrest within the country." Old Han said softly, "This is the situation that the Ancestor faced in his later years. Internal and external troubles, alone, creating the world? Alas, I think the Ancestor was probably in despair at that time."

“This…this…”

Yan Wushuang's face was pale, as if he had suffered a huge shock.

"After the master left, they even destroyed the books that recorded his new teachings, burned his essays, and executed his disciples who still supported him."

"Now in this Xuanwei world, everyone knows the name of the ancestor, and everyone knows the method of the ancestor's life spirit treasure."

“Who knows the new law?”

“Who knows the aspirations of the founder?”

"Everyone in Tianhe Sect wears the founder's clothes, fearing that others don't know that they are the founder's descendants."

"If the Grandmaster really comes back, none of these people will survive!"

Old Han looked at Zheng Fa and suddenly laughed, "So, the Demon Sect is shit, and the Immortal Sect is shit."

"I know so much, but I still can't do anything and dare not do anything."

"Even more shit!"

…

At this point, Mr. Han seemed somewhat uninterested.

"I don't know if it's because my life span is coming to an end." Old Han sighed, seeming a little regretful: "Seeing that you were influenced by Xiao Yuying, I couldn't help but want to say these..."

"I would also like to thank Master Han for his guidance." Zheng Fa thanked him.

"No, what Xiao Yuying said is correct. Your Taoist body must be extremely powerful. You are also extremely talented. According to the current methods of cultivating immortals, you can also achieve great achievements!"

"After all, the Demon Ancestor is still alive, but the Grandmaster is gone."

…

modern.

Zheng Fa was sitting in a chair in the nursing home, holding a book in his hand, which he had been reading for a day and a night.

"Teacher Bai, Zheng Fa...is heartbroken again?" Tang Lingwu looked at Zheng Fa's expression and turned to ask Old Man Bai.

“…This time.” The white old man scratched his head and said, “He looked a bit like me when I found out I was a loser in math and felt I was at the end of my rope.”
