Chapter 175 The dangers of the immortal path are numerous!

Gu Dan frowned. If everything is really as Qingpingzi said, then the so-called immortal cultivation world is definitely not a peaceful and beautiful supreme fairyland.

At least the top level can never be some kind of paradise where you and I can be in love.

Knowing that if another person with enlightenment came, all paths of cultivation would be cut off, Gu Dan didn't dare to think about what would happen.

Noticing Gu Dan's expression, Qingpingzi said, "You've thought of it, right?! Even mortals have a saying that 'a good death is worse than a miserable life'. A martial arts master can live for more than 120 years, which is a lot longer than an ordinary mortal! Not to mention that after you can continue to practice the immortal way, your life span will increase as your realm improves. Even if the increase is not too large, it is still an increase! If another person who has achieved enlightenment appears, that will be one person's gain, and all practitioners will be in trouble, or even the immortal way will end! This threat is not limited to individuals at all. Any intelligent creature will have a great enemy after embarking on the path of cultivation, and that is any existence that wants to ruin the pot!"

Horrifying!

It is reasonable to infer that according to Qingpingzi's statement, it is unlikely that another person who has attained enlightenment will ever appear in the immortal path - the path of cultivation can no longer bear the burden that the next person who has attained enlightenment will bring to all living beings.

The end of one person's success is not that his whole family will prosper, but that the whole world will suffer!

Exchange the countless living beings' lack of a way out for an existential transcendence!

Under such circumstances, the closer a practitioner is to the finish line, the more he will attract the attention of all living beings!

The only way to succeed stealthily is to be silent and unnoticed by any being.

But considering that Master Ji's attempt to attack the innate realm would bring him disaster, the so-called sneaking around is almost impossible!

The last person who has attained enlightenment has not appeared yet, but there is definitely someone who has reached the pinnacle of enlightenment standing on the top of the mountain, who has deployed many measures to prevent this from happening.

If Gu Dan could think of it, how could those beings who have lived for thousands or even longer years not consider it?

"According to what you said, doesn't that mean all cultivators have to follow the steps, and after reaching their own limits, wait quietly for death?" Gu Dan said with a frown.

"Hey, you're not wrong to say that."

Qingpingzi laughed, "Many people think they are the son of destiny, the last one to attain enlightenment. But what is the truth? All martial arts masters have to face the obstacles of Qi and blood and the interaction of the five elements. How many people can go through each realm step by step, from Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir to Nascent Soul?

Follow the routine? It sounds simple. In fact, there is a huge gap between each realm, which is the broken road connected by the existence of the past! Of course, it is not easy to walk on a broken road. Even if you continue to go up, you will face great risks and hardships! How many people can really stand at the top?

There are tens of thousands of warriors in the world, but how many martial arts masters are there in a country? Of course, the path of martial arts is different from the path of immortality, and it is the most criticized, so it cannot be generalized. But the higher you go, the more difficult the path of immortality is. Everyone hopes that they are the son of destiny, but only after recognizing the reality can they understand that it is not easy to be qualified to embark on this path. "

Gu Dan listened silently. He had no say in this matter. The small piece of spirit stone he got at the beginning was not enough for him to get a glimpse of the charm of the immortal way.

However, no matter how difficult the path to immortality is, there shouldn't be any problem if one uses infinite lifespan to practice, right?

Qingpingzi said so much, and Gu was worried that he had already believed it about 70% - if this was really a big lie, then this lie was too profound, and it coincided with what he had experienced!

But there was one most important question he didn't ask.

"You said that once a path is exhausted, all practitioners will suffer. What if someone at the Grandmaster level continues to practice? Or what if there are Qigong practitioners who don't consider the foundation building and golden elixir levels and continue to practice according to the ancient methods?"

Gu Dan stared at Qingpingzi without blinking. This question was very important and was directly related to the mystery of Master Ji's demise!

When Ji Lao tried to attack Xiantian, the powerful Dao Yun that suddenly descended upon him almost killed him! Gu Danke has always remembered this grudge.

"Continue practicing? That's a good idea."

Qing Pingzi shrugged his shoulders. He was not surprised at all that Gu Dan would ask this question. He immediately said, "Immortal - what is immortal? One person and one mountain is immortal! It's not that the person is on the mountain, but the mountain is pressing on the person! Do you want to climb up with the mountain on your shoulders? The result is that the higher you go, the higher the mountain will be!

Why did Wu practice Qi after his physical body became invincible? Is it because those Qi practitioners did not want to practice physical bodies? There is no other reason, they cannot practice! The more you practice, the more oppression you will face! On this path, no one will ever surpass the first person who achieved enlightenment in the physical body. This is an indisputable fact. All practitioners in the future are adding strength to them! "

"oh?!"

The more Gu Dan listened, the more frightened he became. "What do you mean they are all adding strength to them? Are all those who have attained the Tao still here?"

Qing Ping Zi did not answer, but asked: "Have you ever seen a weight?"

"Of course I have."

Gu Dan said affirmatively.

Which shop doesn't have a weight? He was a graduate of the Imperial Hospital!

"That's easy to understand. You can think of the monk as the weight, and the one who has attained enlightenment as the beam scale that measures the weight. The heavier the weight, the higher the beam will be, and it will never be able to catch up with the beam in height. On the contrary, when the weight has no weight at all, the beam is the weakest!"

Qing Pingzi continued, "The Taoists left, but the marks they left when they became Taoists will remain, oppressing all the monks who came after them in every way. Every Taoist who comes after them must do their best to reduce the weight of the weight before they can achieve enlightenment, otherwise they will not even be qualified to challenge the scale bar!"

This metaphor is easy to understand.

When the weight is weightless, the beam can only remain horizontal at best. But once the weight is added, the beam will be raised instead! But in this case, in order to solve the problem of the weight, wouldn't it be? ! Gu Dan's eyes narrowed, and a great sense of crisis enveloped him!

“The monks themselves have weight.

Since you have borrowed the path opened up by your predecessors, you must carry this weight. At the same time, this weight will become a stumbling block for those who aspire to ascend to enlightenment. This is the way to immortality.

Even if you don't want to follow the path of your predecessors, you can't. The mark has been left, and you must climb up step by step according to the procedures, so that you can step on the backs of your predecessors to open up a new path again, and strive to make yourself the last one to achieve enlightenment. Ha, isn't it ridiculous?"

Qing Pingzi was clearly smiling, but his face revealed an undisguised sadness, "Everyone in the world says that it is good to seek immortality, but few know that the dangers of the immortal path are a hundred times greater than those of the mundane world! Even worse!"

"In other words, if you keep breaking through on a path without caring about your life, not only will there be no benefit, but it will only bring you trouble?"

Gu Dan felt a little disappointed.

The "innate realm" that Ji Lao had worked so hard for most of his life and wanted him to see at all costs, could it really be just an illusion? According to Qingpingzi, running wildly on a road is not a way to make further progress, but a cliff to jump off at the end of life!

"Of course not."

Qing Pingzi shook his head again and said unexpectedly: "The weight and the beam are just a description, just to make it easier for you to understand. The real way is not as simple as it sounds. It is true that the weight will press the beam higher, but isn't the weight of the weight itself a barrier?

This kind of weight cannot be lifted endlessly, because the mountain is already there. But if you can drill a hole in the mountain, you can temporarily realize the existence of the "balance bar", which will be of great benefit to your future practice! It is an opportunity that countless people seek but cannot get, and the gains may even be no less than the power increase brought by breaking through the realm! That is an opportunity to face the avenue directly! As long as you cross it and become an ant climbing the mountain, you can still look down at the countless living beings below the mountain. What does a little weight matter? How can the weight of one person compare to the weight of thousands and thousands of cultivators? But this kind of opportunity, once missed, will never come again!"

"What does it mean that once you miss it, you can never get it back?"

Gu Dan asked again.

"There is a mountain in front of us. This mountain is indestructible. As time goes by, some tiny holes will appear on the mountain. These holes are very small, and even ants find it difficult to get in, but there is always a chance. But ants will grow up and even become another smaller mountain. How can the later mountains get into those holes?"

Qing Pingzi said seriously: "You have to connect the things I said. These things are not isolated, but are intertwined and complicated. The monk represents the weight, and the influence of the enlightened person represents the beam. But the monk represents more than one weight and the beam! Taking a step back means it is almost impossible to turn back!"

"Been taught a lesson."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After thinking for a long time and finding no flaws, Gu Dan said seriously.

When it comes to these things, Qingpingzi is no longer mysterious at all. There is nothing wrong with his demeanor, tone, or emphasis. Even if you use his divine sense to observe carefully, it can be said to be flawless.

Even in order to make it easier for him to understand, the metaphors used by Qingpingzi were a little too vivid.

On one hand, the pot is smashed, and on the other hand, there are weights and scales. What the hell is going on in the world of immortal cultivation? However, although Qing Pingzi's words are too shocking and completely overturn all the beautiful fantasies of mortals about the immortal way, he can make everything sound very reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it, so there is no problem.

"ha."

Seeing Gu Dan's expression of thanks, Qing Pingzi knew that Gu Dan had listened to him, "That picture of the soul reflection is the evidence of what I said."

Qingpingzi pointed to a picture on the wall of the mountain, which was the picture of the ascending bright moon and blue lotus.

Before, Gu Dan didn't know why the bright moon shattered when the blue lotus ascended, and all the tens of thousands of golden lotuses behind him withered. After Qing Pingzi's explanation, he could actually match them up one by one.

"I told you that knowing some things may not necessarily be a good thing for you, it will only add to your worries. The things I said are all true, and because of your low level, you may not even realize the dangers involved.

Sometimes, not knowing things clearly is a blessing. Who can say that this is not a blessing? In this life, we come into this world ignorantly and leave it ignorantly. Isn’t it a kind of freedom to wave your sleeves and leave without taking a cloud with you? What good is it to know too much, except that it will make you suffer and lose the courage to make progress? "

Qingpingzi was sighing there. At this time, he didn't seem like a Taoist priest, but more like a poet, a scholar who was thinking about philosophy.

"It's not important not to know. What's very important to me is not not knowing," said Gu Dan.

Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

But he didn't have the chance to say "I don't care what happens after I die."

If you know these things in advance, you can prepare in advance. As for the courageous and diligent mind, that is the consideration of those with a limited lifespan. He just needs to be responsible for living a safe and stable life.

"What can I do if I know?"

Qingpingzi shook his head indifferently. These secrets sounded extremely shocking, but that was all they sounded.

Just like a farmer who digs for food in the land and would rather go hungry three times a day, is it really necessary to care about how the emperor lives? Is his quality of life good?

Maybe the farmer would not even want to live after knowing how extravagant the emperor was! "Then the question is, how do you know so much about the immortals? Could it be that you have really seen an immortal?" Gu Dan did not let Qingpingzi go.

When it comes to the way of immortals, Qingpingzi knows everything about it. His words and logic are flawless, but it is clear that he has never seen a single immortal in this world.

Where did Qing Pingzi get all this knowledge? There must be a source!

"It's actually pretty easy to understand. Theoretically, it would be best if there were no last person who attained enlightenment. This would be a good thing for all living beings, right?"

Qingpingzi sorted out his words, "Except for those creatures who have already climbed to the top and are even opening up new paths - they have already raised their hammers high and want to smash the pot.

Just like Emperor Zongming, who is an emperor, is still pursuing the way of immortality. Those beings who stand at the top of the way of immortality, who is not gifted, talented, or even the supreme being who dominates the ages? Compared with them, Emperor Zongming is not even a hair, and their stubbornness and ideas are thousands of times more than Emperor Zongming! If we think we are the son of destiny, it is probably a fantasy, but for such beings, they are already at the top, only one step away - there is still a chance to become the last person to achieve the Tao! Do you think there is room for compromise and negotiation in such matters?"

Gu Dan shook his head slightly.

If cultivating immortals is likened to a game, then the "enlightened one" is the final winner, taking everything, and all living beings have to pay for it. In this case, who can believe it? Don't they have to hide themselves like crazy and try their best to kill other competitors!

"Yes, those guys live at the top of the immortal world, and anyone could ruin it. But except for people of the same level, no one can compete with them. So we can only think of other ways to make things difficult for them. For example, spread the news so that some people with extraordinary talents can also know the inside story of the immortal world!"

Qingpingzi looked at Gu Dan with a smile on his face.
