When Yun Qing returned, he was still thinking about what Jiu Huan said. Before Shinto became glorious, there was another Taoism in this world that had long since disappeared. "Ya*wen*yan*qing*first*fa" This orthodoxy, which disappeared in exactly the same way as Shinto, may be the origin of all ascetics today, and it is also the beginning of disaster in the ascetic world.
Why can practitioners practice Taoism
Today, there is no mystery about this question, and even the most ordinary practitioners can give the answer. Because after a practitioner enters the Tao, he will have the Tao seed. The Tao seed is like an organ such as the eyes and nose. Its function is to see the Tao, or rules, of the world.
But there is a deeper doubt behind this simple question.
Where did Taoism come from? How did the first group of people who tried to spy on the secrets of heaven find a way to enter the Tao? What happened a long, long time ago that allowed a spiritual being to embark on such a path of understanding the laws of heaven and manipulating supreme power
This was the first time that Yun Qing began to understand the current monastic world from the depths and from the very beginning. She slowly imagined in her mind the hundreds of thousands of years of ups and downs of the entire monastic world, trying to recover some clear clues from it.
She couldn't explain why Taoism suddenly appeared, so she could only imagine that one day two hundred thousand years ago, the apocalypse appeared in the world.
After the apocalypse, a small number of spiritual beings were given Tao seeds. They began to use Tao seeds to understand and comprehend the rules of this world, and obtain unimaginable power from heaven and earth. This power allows them to survive in a cruel environment, protect their own race, enable life to continue, and civilization to survive.
But they soon discover that this power has an end.
No matter how powerful the Tao seed is, it cannot compete with the rules of heaven, so what should die will still die, and what cannot be retained will still not be retained. But all spiritual beings are greedy. The first practitioners were unwilling to accept the fact that they still had to be subject to the rules of heaven after possessing great power, so they began to try to break through the limitations of the Tao itself.
When you enter the Tao, you get the Tao seed, and the Tao seed grows and becomes the Tao stem. When the Tao stem is enriched to the limit, there is no way ahead.
This limit must be exceeded.
The practitioners at that time were at the end of their rope, so they racked their brains and tried everything.
Later, there was the unification of all dharmas, and the transformation of all ways into one's own way, which is what is now called in the monastic circles. Turning the things of the way of heaven into the practitioner's own things opens up a new path at the end of the road, and gives birth to a new life at the end of life.
Things that cannot be accommodated by the Dao stem will turn into Dao fruits. After the Dao fruits decay, they will become Dao seeds. In this cycle, the monastic world gradually moves towards a magnificent and prosperous age. en8.
But the good times did not last long, and the great Taoism that carried countless ascetics' dreams of immortality disappeared in an instant.
Disappeared completely, leaving no trace, as if it had never existed.
The practitioners at that time may have fallen into panic, but time quickly eliminated this panic, which was insignificant compared to "eternal immortality", and new Taoism was rising rapidly. The two Taoist traditions of gods and demons should be rising stars. After so many years of exploration, they have finally completed the path of joining the Tao. Those who have reached the Great Perfection of the Great Perfection have ascended to the position of Biluo Huangquan, standing shoulder to shoulder with the way of heaven, but they still cannot transcend.
It was not enough. The practitioners at that time felt that it was not enough to be on par with the way of heaven.
There must be a certain way to go after Hedao. Keep going and get out of the shadow of the way of heaven.
They must find it.
Yun Qing didn't know whether the gods and demons at that time had found this way, but she knew that just when the gods and demons were at their most glorious, disaster struck again.
It was the Shinto that disappeared this time, and the Demonic Path was probably also severely damaged, so he retreated to the Demonic Realm and stopped caring about worldly matters.
However, the demise of these two Taoist traditions has not been able to stop the determination of the practitioners to explore the path. They have opened up countless ways of practice and created various Taoist traditions. The era of tit-for-tat confrontation between gods and demons, each performing its own duties, has passed, and the monastic world has gradually entered a period of true contention among a hundred schools of thought and a struggle among all dharma.
Judging from what Yun Qing learned, the saints of several major traditions are doing the same things as gods and demons. They try to break through the current way of cultivating the Tao and open up another path after joining the Tao. The Heart Sutra of Rebirth created by Buddhist saints should have been produced during this process, but it is a pity that he failed to completely break through the way of heaven. There are also saints from the human realm, Jingli, and even saints from the ghost realm whom they have never met before. They are all exploring this aspect.
Today's saints stand at the pinnacle of all practitioners and are working hard to break through this pinnacle.
But this time the disaster is coming again.
Yun Qing had already flown over the South China Sea at this time, with vast expanse of blue waves rolling below and thousands of miles of dark clouds surging above. There is a vast emptiness between the vast sky and the earth, and the tiny figure is like a leaf in a lonely boat or a drop in the ocean between the water and the sky.
She suddenly stopped in her tracks and felt emotional for some reason: "Every inch the road extends forward, the bones of countless ancestors will be buried on the road. This 'eternal immortality' really makes everyone desperate. It’s a taboo to pursue.”
The reason why those orthodoxies disappeared is probably because they violated such taboo areas, right
What the spirits of heaven and earth should not expect is eternity.
"Meet the Demon Lord of Underworld!"
A loud dragon roar came from far away from the south, and there was a demonic young man standing on the dragon's head. He held his sword as a gift from afar and said loudly to Yun Qing: "Demon Lord, I have kept you waiting for a long time!"
"I just arrived here. I thought I would have to wait for a while, but I didn't expect you to come very quickly." Yun Qing smiled at him, "Jianchen, you have improved your cultivation. That's very good."
The swordsman scratched his head in embarrassment. He jumped down from Long Huai's head, and then said: "Demon Lord, I'm sorry. What does my little cultivation mean..."
"Your cultivation is indeed not very good, but your temperament can still catch my eye. Unfortunately, I can't pass on several orthodox inheritances of the Six Paths of Yama Sect to you..." Yun Qing said without any regret.
This was the first time that Jian Chen was praised so directly by Demon Lord Huangquan. He quickly lowered his head and remained silent, not knowing what to do. He felt that Demon Lord Huangquan's gaze fell on him, with a hint of scrutiny.
The direct disciples all have to go through the trial of the magic map. Only when his magic pattern appears on the magic map can Yun Qing teach him the orthodox inheritance. However, Jianchen has been in Wuwu Demon Realm for so many years and there is no movement in the Demon Map. It is estimated that his hope of becoming a direct disciple is very slim. But it doesn't matter if he can't practice the devil's direct inheritance, he can always find a place to put him.
Yun Qing looked at him up and down several times, and then said after a long time: "Go to Guiling Temple to find a Buddhist and Taoist saint."
"Ah?" Jianchen's scalp was numb when she saw him, but Yun Qing suddenly said something and he didn't even react.
"Go find the Buddhist and Taoist saint. He is short of people and you are short of inheritance. It's just the right time." Yun Qing said briefly.
Jianchen thought she was joking. But Venerable Huang Quan spent so much effort to send a message from the Tongtian Divine Vein to Wuwu Demon Realm, and invited him and Long Huai to the South China Sea. It couldn't be just for a joke!
"This..." Jianchen hesitated for a long time. The Six Paths of Yama Sect is the orthodox path of demons, and there is no room for a disciple to worship another sect, even if he is just an ordinary inner sect disciple. Besides, who are the Buddhist saints? He really has the courage to rebel against the Six Paths of Yama and climb to Zizai Cliff to worship his old man, but they may not accept him!
"Just go." Yun Qing waved his hand, so that he didn't need to say more, "I will make things right here in the Demon Realm. You just go to the Buddhist saint and ask him to teach you the Heart Sutra of Rebirth."
Jian Chen felt dizzy when he heard Demon Lord Huang Quan said that he would help him deal with the Wuwu Demon Realm. When he heard the "Heart Sutra of Rebirth", he was even more surprised: "What is that?"
"It's also a line of orthodoxy." Yun Qing thought for a moment, and smiled slightly coldly, "It looks like the method of cultivating both Buddha and demon."
"...!?" The swordsman had never heard of this method, but seeing Demon Lord Huangquan really didn't seem to be a fake, so he could only explain it with his own ignorance.
"Long Huai, you take the swordsman to Guiling Temple. When he gets there, you don't have to go back to Wuwu Demon Realm."
Long Huai suddenly transformed into a human form and said angrily: "Are you driving me away?"
"No, I'm just looking for a place for you to stay temporarily. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you in the future." Yun Qing smiled bitterly, and Long Huai was immediately frightened by her.
"What's wrong with you? Will something happen?" Long Huai asked sensitively, "It's okay, I can help you if I stay."
Yun Qing shook his head: "Obey, you go to Shiwanda Mountain to find the demon clan. If you can cultivate the Nine Tribulations True Dragon, you will be doing me a big favor."
Strange beasts from heaven and earth can also practice cultivation like humans, and when they reach a certain age, they can even survive tribulations like practitioners. But most of the strange beasts still choose to huddle in an uninhabited corner. After all, it is not a safe thing to survive the tribulation. The Nine Tribulations True Dragon needs nine punishments from heaven. Each calamity is a rebirth. After surviving, the True Dragon's blood becomes purer. After the Nine Tribulations, it may be comparable to the unrivaled True Dragon Ancestor in ancient times. .
Qingchuan Shanfu must know more about this Tao than Yun Qing, and the situation of the demon saints is very similar to that of the Buddhist saints - they both have inheritances in their hands, but unfortunately no one inherits them. If Long Huai could seize this opportunity, he might skyrocket.
"Tell me clearly what it is." Long Huai continued to ask persistently. She was not as easy to fool as the swordsman, and she would not let Yun Qing go without asking for the reason.
"There will be great chaos in Wuhuan Demon Realm." Yun Qing sighed, "You should stay as far away from the demonic path as possible, and don't act rashly if you hear any rumors in the future. When I sort out everything there, I will naturally lead you back Demonic realm.”
Long Huai wanted to ask again, but seeing that Yun Qing's expression was really heavy, he had to give up: "What if you can't handle it?"
"No." Yun Qing comforted her in a good voice.
"What if?"
"Nothing unexpected."
"It's best not to." Looking at Yun Qing's calm face, Long Huai felt anger welling up. She instantly transformed into the body of a golden dragon and shouted at the swordsman who listened to them honestly, "Get out of here!" Come up!"
Jian Chen looked at Yun Qing and then at Long Huai. As soon as one leg stepped onto the dragon's back, it was dragged far away.
His voice trembled from a distance: "Demon Lord, take care! The swordsman will miss you! Ah...!!"
