Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun looked at the young Taoist and said calmly: "Since you have this wisdom, your instinct will never choose the way of one world after another. You will not take the path of Taiyi Ten Directions World, the path of earth, water, wind, fire, and the myriad stars. It is indeed another possibility, but if it is just this myriad stars, it is not enough."
"Or in other words, it has never transcended the scope of the Three Thousand Worlds."
The Supreme Master stroked his beard and smiled, "Then, let's see what kind of Tao fruit our disciples can achieve."
The other two Dao Ancestors all praised it, and stood in their respective positions, leaving behind their previous mundane appearances of laughter, anger, and indulgence.
Their expressions were either gentle and peaceful, or encompassing, or carefree and relaxed. Each one was like the manifestation of the rhyme of Tao, or the incarnation of the Great Dao. They all held a whisk in their hands, and with a sweep of the whisk, the world in front of them stabilized. Three auras soared into the sky, yet they were natural and calm, and they suppressed the movement of their disciples' breakthroughs.
The three Dao ancestors held the spells in their hands, and the golden light changed as they said to themselves: "The heavens of all heavens are in chaos."
"My way is growing stronger day by day."
The whisk swept through the void, and all things condensed into an infinite array, suppressing cause and effect, the past, and the future, to hide it from others' perception. Wei Di Ting felt that for some reason, he did not seem to sleep well last night. His forehead ached from time to time, as if three hundred strong men were dancing on his forehead together.
Next, Daozu’s house is also strange.
Even though Qi Wuhuo cut down trees and built the house himself, it was after all the Taoist master who lived here. Every time he breathed in and out or saw the divine light passing by, they were all great opportunities. Even the fish in the water would grow dragon whiskers. However, the main beam in his own house had cracks all over it.
"That's strange... Could it be that it's infested with insects?"
Di Ting stepped out of the yard, raised his head and saw the golden light flowing, his expression froze.
Before he even took a step, he turned around in a very standard way and walked into the house without stopping.
"Ah, I just remembered that the bald Ksitigarbha in my dream had something to tell me. He said he wanted to return to secular life."
"I'll go back and continue dreaming and talking to him."
The noise outside was so loud that even the green-shirted spirit was about to leave, but he suddenly faltered and looked at the little medicine spirit who was holding his calf and pounding his calf madly with two big bags of tears in his eyes. He said, "Okay, okay, don't hit me. I just ate all the fruits you found before winter. What's the big deal?"
"You have to think carefully. Did you collect so many fruits and bury them all over the mountains and fields just to dig them out one day and eat them?! Think about it carefully. How can you be so superficial?!"
"Too superficial!"
"You have Qi Wuhuo to take care of you. He is just a great disciple. If you change to someone who likes to show off, you need to be accompanied by immortal officials when you go in and out, and the star gods need to clear the way for you when you go back and forth. Whether you want delicacies from the North Sea or rare fruits from the South Pole, they will be delivered to you in an instant, and they are very fresh."
"In that case, why did you hide these?!"
The green-shirted instrument is full of spirit and emotion.
The little medicine spirit was so confused that he was led astray by this guy and said subconsciously:
"What is it?"
The Green Shirt Spirit smiled and said, "Of course it's for—"
"hapiness!"
He said sincerely, "It's for the fulfillment and happiness of searching for these fruits before burying them, and for the happiness of digging them out in the future, right? Aren't these more valuable than the wild fruits in the mountains?"
"Although I ate your fruit, you gained happiness!"
"Instead of hating me, you should thank me."
The little medicine spirit was brought into the ditch, and he spread his hands, looked at his own little hands, and murmured, "Happy? Thank you?"
Bewildered for a moment.
Soon he saw a hint of smile on the blue-shirted young man's mouth, and he finally crawled out of the ditch. He was furious, and clenched his hands, milky white, and hit the blue-shirted young man's calf with all his strength.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——
call out!
whoosh!
It even left an afterimage! With a hint of Qingmu Thunder Qi!
So the Green Shirt Spirit felt very comfortable when he was beaten.
Di Ting just rolled his eyes, turned sideways, covered his ears with the pillow, and muttered in his heart - I told you a long time ago to stay away from a guy with a face like that, stay away, just don't listen, just don't listen!
Ever since Queen Nuwa left, Fuxi seemed to have no reason to cheat people anymore.
The kind of person who would kick a passing dog into the ditch.
Ask for reason?
I'm happy!
That's the only reason.
A monster that is unpredictable, uninferable, illogical, and yet has a greater plan.
Di Ting rolled his eyes, and the little medicine spirit, who was throwing out punches one after another, was lifted up by the collar of the young man in green. Even though it was suspended in the air, with its eyes wide open, it attacked angrily, hitting the young man in green's face, but it couldn't cause even the slightest wrinkle or ripple on his face.
"Okay, okay, it was my fault for eating your food. Can I compensate you?"
The young man in green smiled helplessly, but at this moment, his eyes suddenly moved slightly, his appearance did not change, but his pupils shrank inward, and two dark golden vertical pupils appeared in his brown eyes, which were always smiling. They turned slightly and fell on the little medicine spirit. Although his facial features remained the same, his temperament was different.
A sense of horror, an indescribable elegance and majesty, a self-conceit and coldness that could silence anyone just by lowering his eyes, in an instant, made the little medicine spirit, who was originally playing around in an angry "revenge", pause slightly, and his fist became slower and slower, more and more hesitant, and finally just a small fist touched the cheek of the young man in green.
The young man in green shirt laughed.
With a sunny and warm charm, the fear that trembled in the little medicine spirit's heart was soothed. Then the young man in green shirt lifted the little guy's hand and lifted him up. He turned around and looked at the Three Purities Seal over there. His golden vertical pupils changed slightly, and the position under his feet changed in an instant, from the two yin and yang, four images, eight trigrams, inside and outside, innate, acquired, to the thirty-two trigrams, seventy-two trigrams, stretching to infinity.
Extend the heaven and earth.
"Oh? What a great opportunity, little one."
"To become a saint and be called an ancestor, with one's own path, and eventually to have combat power comparable to that of a great master, with one's own dojo and choices; or to become an innate immortal with spiritual wisdom awakened, and be trapped at the level of a True Lord of the Immortal Dao; there are many cracks that split open, and each direction leads to a different fate, but today's is the biggest one."
The little medicine spirit was being carried high up, with his arms and short legs hanging down. He was so confused that a question mark seemed to be growing on his head. He tilted his head:
"Um???"
Did he get cramps in his calves from being spanked, and as a result his brain got worse?!
Little Yao Ling thought about it, reached out her hand and rummaged in her arms, and took out a very big fruit. Although her face was full of reluctance, she still handed it over.
The young man in green was surprised, then smiled warmly:
"After eating your seventy-two fruits, I will give you the opportunity to become the leader of the seventy-two blessed lands."
"If I eat this again, I will ask for a chance to save you."
He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, smiling slightly. His smile was as gentle as jade, but his pupils were quiet and cold. He said softly, "Don't worry. There will be a glimmer of hope later."
…
But it is said that before, Qi Wuhuo held his breath and concentrated his mind, sitting cross-legged, gradually reaching a state of selflessness, with only breathing, only his primordial spirit, only this nature and this life, in a trance, unknown, unaware of the changes in the outside world, only the Taiyi body inside, and the five qi of the five directions gradually entering the body.
The five types of treasures were all transformed into five types of ultimate Qi, surrounding the body of Qi Wuhuo who was controlling the Taiyi Gong body at this moment.
Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
The five elements and five qi flow and change without end. This is the most basic breath that makes up all things in the outside world and the foundation for building the world. The young Taoist can vaguely sense the activity of this power. He has been taught by the Three Pure Ones and has known many secrets. Naturally, he knows the method of gathering the five qi and opening up the inner scene.
Ordinary practitioners are unaware of the secrets and do not know the true teachings of Daluo. They use the earth's Qi below to carry all things, and water flows on it, combining with fire, forming the Yin and Yang of Kan and Li. Then they use wood and gold to arrange the world, and use the circulation and arrangement of the five Qi to show their own path. In this way, they can obtain the corresponding magical powers of the five elements and the five Qi.
In fact, it is just the way of the inner world that is presented externally.
It is called Dharma, but in reality it is Tao.
The true teachings of the Three Pure Ones, the title of Daluo, rather than the scattered numbers of Taiyi, are those who know how to open up the earth, water, wind and fire as a path, to redefine the order, to derive an inner world, and to expound one's own way. These are no longer the magical powers of the Five Elements and Five Qi. The young Taoist naturally followed this path.
When water and fire collide, Kan and Li intersect, the flow of water vapor changes into Qi, and when Qi flows without restraint, it becomes wind.
The wind started from the tip of the green duckweed, rose along the tall trees, and swept up the flowing fire with great force.
Earth, water, wind and fire surround your body and can be broken and stabilized by Geng metal.
As the earth, water, wind and fire spread out, the world is spread out.
But at this point, Qi Wuhuo's movements suddenly froze. For some reason, he just couldn't do it. In the outside world, Taishang, Yuqing, and Shangqing were not surprised. Shangqing Daojun said calmly: "This wisdom is both good and bad. Knowing too much will hinder his steps. Let's see if he can figure it out and get out of it."
Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun lowered his eyes slightly, his expression calm and peaceful.
The Supreme is gentle and calm.
The young man in green shirt below was holding the small medicine spirit and said calmly: "Be prepared."
The little medicine spirit was stunned, then clasped his hands together to encourage himself, pretending to lift a heavy object, to show that he was very strong and ready, which made the young man in green shirt couldn't help but smile. When he smiled, it was gentle and soft, like the morning light. The little medicine spirit was puzzled and asked, "But, what is the opportunity?"
"It's an opportunity. It's yours, and it also belongs to that little guy."
Little Yao Ling was confused and asked, "When?"
The young man replied: “Some time later.”
So the little medicine spirit widened his eyes and asked curiously, "Huh? Things about the future?"
"How do you know?!"
“Can you see the future?”
Separated by a wall, Di Ting had a blank expression on his face and wanted to run away immediately, but his spiritual nature was so strong that both the conversation of the Three Pure Ones and the laughter of the young man in green clothes echoed in his ears with incomparable clarity.
The young man in green shirts answered every question and smiled, "Of course not. As things in the future are in the future, they have not happened yet. Since they have not happened yet, there is a chance for them to change."
"We are just making predictions, just like an experienced farmer who, when he sees thick clouds in the sky, guesses it will rain today and wears a raincoat to avoid getting wet; and when he sees someone buy meat at home, he guesses if there will be guests coming, so he eats less today and waits for the delicious food."
"It's just a basic prediction to avoid disaster and seek good fortune."
“Nothing different.”
The little medicine spirit suddenly realized and said in a baby voice, "So you actually saw that it would rain in the future?"
The young man in green shirt smiled: "Yes, but I may be a little different from them."
Little Yao Ling was curious: "What's different?"
The young man in green shirt said in a gentle voice: "If we use the metaphor of rain, then the common divination is to see rain clouds, so bring a raincoat."
The little medicine spirit nodded, and suddenly seemed to understand, clapped his hands and said loudly:
"Can you see the rain?!"
"No...if you say that this world is a heavy rain that has been going on from ancient times to the present, without stopping."
The young man in green shirt smiled, but even though he smiled, there was no light in his eyes:
“I could just see every trace of water.”
"That's all."
See every trace of water...
Just this one sentence.
The tossing and turning of the ears and ears froze.
Finally, Di Ting sighed and looked at the wooden stake over there.
Touched his head.
Look at the cracks in the wooden stakes.
He might know...
Where did this crack come from?
Since ancient times, anyone who has entered a great disaster will inevitably be in a whirlpool. If one steps in rashly, he will be in danger of death.
Listen carefully and hear the long cry towards the sky.
Ksitigarbha——!!!
Please take me away!
Boom!!!!
…
Tai Shang lowered his eyes and looked at the young Taoist with his eyes closed. He saw that the five elements and five qi had turned into earth, water, wind and fire, and Geng Jin was held in his hand, wanting to open up a new world. However, at this moment, his movements stopped, as if he could not accept that the opening up of the world was spreading in all directions, and his brows were frowned.
The Supreme One stroked his beard and said, "Innate wisdom, no doubt, no doubt, can you see through it?"
Just like those poems, just like the principles he vaguely knew when he was young, there was a faint imprint, an instinct hidden in the deepest part of his body and soul that made him believe that the source of the world should be a point, and then shattered and exploded.
The stars and all things continue to emerge, and the world is gushing out.
Therefore, the first step in opening up the inner world should also be this step.
Not expansion!
It's compression, it's collapse!
However, that concept is just like the word "Tao", which is full of various incomprehensible and mysterious problems. Yes, we know that it is right to do so, but how to collapse to the limit? If it collapses to the limit, how to shatter it?
If the earth, water, wind and fire collapse to the extreme, to the point where they explode, they can instantly spread out and turn into the world.
Then another force must be used to break it apart.
What is this force and what can we do?
Su Hui cannot answer this question.
So the young Taoist was in the deepest part of his soul, in the deepest part of his spirit, in the deepest part of the deep silence, not knowing how to move forward. He looked up and could not see the way forward, there was no sky, no sun, and circles of ripples were appearing under his feet. The young Taoist sat cross-legged, thinking about this question. He didn't know how long had passed, perhaps as long as the falling of a star, or perhaps just a short moment. Suddenly, a laughing voice sounded, coming from behind, not hurriedly, slowly catching up.
This voice, old, gentle and calm:
"It is the Tao, it is one."
"From one comes everything, doesn't it?"
These were the teachings of an old man in the past, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered them again. The vague impression from his past wisdom rose up and turned into words.
[Everything collapses to the limit, to a point that is unknowable and unpredictable to ordinary people, and then collapses and explodes]
There seemed to be a cold and calm voice answering in my ear: "No sect is supreme, before all things, before chaos."
"Wei Yuan."
"In the time of chaos, yin and yang were not yet determined."
"Beginning."
How to break it?
The voice of the Lord of Black rang out in the past:
"Holding the sword, the so-called cultivation of supernatural powers, all use my mind to do incredible things."
"Do you know?"
The young Taoist raised his eyes slightly, and in the deepest part of his mind, he seemed to see the stories of his three teachers. He lowered his eyes slightly, and had some understanding about how all things collapsed and then exploded, turning into stars and all things, which finally connected with the scene of the creation of the world that he had seen with his own eyes.
And it seemed to match. The young Taoist lowered his eyes and murmured:
"Before all things, before chaos."
"Earth, water, wind and fire disperse to form heaven and earth, and gather to form chaos."
Around the young Taoist, the five elements and five Qi suddenly collapsed inwards. He slowly stretched out his hand, and in his palm there was a force that kept collapsing and slowly swirling, dark and deep. Finally, this force tried to recover to its state before chaos, and it was also within the young Taoist's Taiyi body, compressed to the extreme by the power of [One].
During this process, many traces of the Tao rhyme of Taiyi Gong body were also incorporated into it.
Finally arrived at a point.
The young Taoist priest "opened his eyes".
It was as if he saw the time before the universe, before the chaos. He was so vast and the world was so small. He was as big as the world and also as small as the world. Then he raised his hand slightly.
[Holding the talisman of opening up the sky].
This body is like a knife, and also like the Tao.
This palm is like a talisman.
Just like [axe]!
A pause for a moment is like a hundred years, and a hundred years return to one.
Slash forward!
