"It's okay to enter the Tao, but there's no hope of attaining the Tao."
He shook his head as he made this comment.
From today's perspective, this woman has some talent. Although her foundation is a little weak, she is able to reach the peak of enlightenment in such an environment. She possesses a certain amount of talent and understanding.
But the inability to attain enlightenment is not only due to talent, but also to the heaven and earth.
"Today's heaven and earth have long been shattered, and the laws have been overturned. Let alone attaining the Tao, even entering the Tao is a luxury."
Li Changsheng asked: "Do you know how to solve this problem?"
"He Dao."
The old man answered without hesitation: "Now there is only one who can achieve harmony with the Tao, and it's either you or me."
"What if it doesn't fit?" Li Changsheng raised his eyebrows. He actually had a similar feeling a long time ago.
As long as you are in harmony with the Tao, everything will be peaceful.
"The world will continue to collapse, and eventually it will become an infinite catastrophe. Daoist friend is still young, so it is understandable that he does not want to merge with the Dao. Even if you come, it may not necessarily solve the problem."
The old man saw Li Changsheng's resistance and was not surprised.
Li Changsheng has not yet reached the stage where he should do things according to his stage. He should have the power of formlessness now, but his Taoism is not yet true formlessness.
It will take some time and an opportunity.
As for how long it will last, it is unknown. Once upon a time, it took more than 10,000 years.
"I have come to unite with the Dao, and will continue the existence of the world for another 100,000 years."
His tone was decisive without any hesitation, as if it was a matter of course.
Li Changsheng sighed and said, "It seems that I am at a disadvantage, but can the integration of Dao really solve the problem? Throughout history, many people who have integrated Dao have only ended up prolonging the arrival of the catastrophe."
"This is not something I should consider. It is the responsibility of fellow Taoists."
The old man smiled and said, "Whether it is right or not should be defined by you. If I think it is right, I will go, and if you think it is wrong, you don't have to go."
"No one has ever stipulated that we must be in harmony with the Tao. It's just that I am stupid and can't think of a second solution, so I can only compromise."
The old man left behind a green fruit, which is the elixir of life, but it did not fully grow and could only extend the life of Taiyin Star God by fifty years.
Also because of the changes in the environment of heaven and earth, and because he needed to be in harmony with the Tao, he naturally could not produce the fruit of immortality.
"Fellow Daoist, let's say goodbye now."
The little old man bowed slightly, and then his figure turned into starlight and disappeared.
“Have a nice journey.”
Li Changsheng also stood up to return the greeting. The two had only met twice, but they seemed like good friends who had known each other for many years.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Only Wuxiang can truly understand Wuxiang. This old tree spirit who has lived for 100,000 years can understand Li Changsheng.
Taiyin Xingjun asked: "Immortal, will the catastrophe end?"
"I think so."
At this time Li Changsheng was full of hope. Since ancient times, countless people who have achieved the Tao have succeeded. It is impossible for an old tree spirit with 100,000 years of Taoism to fail.
So he promised to create a stable small world for Zhu Xue, Taiyin Xingjun, and all the practitioners in the world so that they could enter the Tao.
In the 700th year of the Immortal Calendar, a catastrophe struck from heaven. Thousands of evil spirits appeared, hundreds of ghosts wandered around, and the order of yin and yang collapsed.
Li Changsheng went to the ancient sacred mountain and came to a pond. The quiet and cold spring water had long dried up, with only half a rotten wood left in the center.
"My friend, you failed."
The old tree spirit had undoubtedly failed, and the reason was unknown. But his failure completely dispelled Li Changsheng's idea of harmony with the Tao, and instead gave birth to another crazier idea that no one had ever tried.
Some places in heaven and earth are like fairy palaces, which need constant cleaning and reform, otherwise they will soon become corrupt and smelly.
But sometimes uprooting is necessary.
There is something wrong with this world.
Suddenly a breeze blew, blowing up the sawdust on the old tree spirit's body and dropping it to the ground, forming extremely distorted words that were blurry and seemed not to be words.
Harmony with the Tao is the only way to achieve longevity
Li Changsheng took a glance, then waved his sleeves and left.
He was sure that something was wrong with heaven and earth.
The heaven and earth reveal a consciousness that tends towards self, but it is also very primitive. It is more like a desire than a consciousness, a desire that comes from instinct.
