Martial Emperor Reborn

Chapter 553: From the avenue to simplicity

Views:

There are three things in this world that are hard to get rid of: fame, wealth, and desire; for the secular upper class, there are two things: power and strength; but for Taoists, there is only one thing: power and the desire to pursue power. *heart of.

When a Taoist crosses the peak of the realm and comes into contact with a higher level of power, the Taoist is often unable to control it, gradually becoming confused, and unknowingly swells and distorts, running in the opposite direction without knowing it. It's a hundred years of practice that becomes empty, and it's just a new material for reincarnation;

Even if there is no deviation in the direction, a Dao heart is likely to gradually assimilate and disappear in the dark avenue, leaving no trace of true surname and true self.

Even Li Xuan himself was slowly changing unknowingly.

On this road of realizing the way of heaven, almost everyone has the same starting point, but the road is long and long. On this road of seeking, some people constantly deviate from their original intentions for one reason or another, and misunderstand Going astray, after several rounds of reincarnation, very few finally reach the end. Is this natural selection, or is it the old man

Or, this is just a microcosm of people's inability to control this kind of power and desire.

Too much sex becomes a burden, and what is more fulfilling than having an indifferent heart

Shaking his head, Li Xuan withdrew his thoughts and turned his gaze to the distance again. Since it is the Tao, it is the Tao! It's not the Taoist's doing to be so ambitious; he knows that some things are not what he wants to consider now.

At this time, the moon is shining across the sky, and the blue sky is like washing; standing in front of the window, watching the lake water illuminated by Supo toad, like thousands of golden snakes rippling back and forth; I also see swimming fish jumping in the waves, and old birds screaming in the trees Up, the breeze was blowing on the face, and the sleeves were cool; Facing such a beautiful scene, for a moment, Li Xuan only felt that all thoughts were emptied, the Lingtai was clear, like the joy of walking through the sky, the golden core and Yuanyang in his body were slowly turning at this time, The peaceful purple true essence moved in and out around his body, entangled back and forth.

In the next second, the picturesque moonlit night sky suddenly shone brightly, and a few floating clouds and mist melted away without a trace, and then, as if a hole had been stabbed in the sky, a ray of light fell silently , It became as thick as the mouth of a bowl in a blink of an eye, passing through the building plate, coming straight to Li Xuan, and sinking into the sky above the head in a blink of an eye.

At the moment when the beam of light entered the top of Li Xuan's head, a faint smile appeared on his face inadvertently. In an instant, he knew that the moment he had dreamed of was finally coming, and he didn't care about anything else, so he sat on the ground with his heart like a bright moon. , keep humble and simple, just go away in such a quiet way.

In the boundless world, changes are hard to find, and that flash of inspiration is even more fleeting, so how could he not grasp it well

In a trance, he seems to have entered a mysterious and strange world, where there is no bounds, and everywhere is full of mysterious and extraordinary auspicious auspicious lights. It exudes a mysterious and eternal atmosphere; dimly, Li Xuan recalled all the adventures he had in the nameless cave a long time ago...

A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org

At the same time that the beam of light sank into the top of Li Xuan's head, centered on the building where he was located, in the entire 'Nanchi' cave, the unbelievably rich Yuanling Qi slowly rotated, vaguely, it seemed to coincide with that strange world The rotating trajectory of the purple air mass, and those free energies that filled the cave also converged towards the building. For a while, in the cave that was originally like a paradise, there was a breeze, and within a short while, the branches were shaking and the beasts were singing. Pinghu Amoy.

For such an abnormal weather change, Shi Qingyan was naturally the first to notice in the cave...

He stood on the square in front of the main hall, comforted a group of juniors, and then looked at the building where Li Xuan was, with a hint of understanding on his face, and murmured in a slightly emotional voice: "Cultivate the 'primordial spirit', manifest 'Baby', unexpectedly there is such a strong fluctuation of vitality, it seems that another 'immortal' will be born in this cultivation world!" Shi Qingyan looked at the building in the distance, and suddenly, a trace of doubt appeared on his face , looked around, and said to himself: "It's strange, that's the true Yang Yuanling!" At this time, Shi Qingyan's keen spiritual awareness noticed that the surging heaven and earth vitality in the surrounding void was mixed with traces of essence. Pure True Yang Yuanling, since ancient times, this phenomenon is unique in the stage of transforming into a baby!

Not to mention Shi Qingyan, and Li Xuan's "body" in this strange space, he can clearly feel his own existence, as if he was born on the same day as here, and maybe he will disappear at the same time in the next second! In this world, Li Xuan knew that there was always an existence that he could not explore. She was like a wise man, thinking there silently, evolving the growth and decline of creatures in this strange world, and calculating the mysteries of creation. In a trance, it seemed to be conveying a detached and broad-minded state of mind to Li Xuan—a kind of understanding of life!

"But now, can I explore a thing or two about the mysterious air mass that is related to the Kingdom of God!" Li Xuan thought so, he "come" to the edge of the two-foot-square purple air mass, and tentatively put his "hand" Stretch out slowly, the moment the "hand" comes into contact with the air mass, the purple air mass suddenly shakes, producing infinite suction, as if it wants to swallow him, and immediately countless images and information are like water that bursts a bank, surging with vines. Entering the depths of Li Xuan's sea of consciousness, gradually, he felt that his head was about to explode, and an unprecedented pain invaded every cell in his body, but the information that came surging like a tide did not have the slightest bit of pain. The trend of receding, at this critical moment, the rush of information stopped abruptly without warning, and Li Xuan's "hand" left the purple light ball at some point; he stared blankly at the Compared with the light cluster that was slightly thinner than before, an inexplicable feeling lingered in his mind.

"Where are those images and information just now?" Standing in this strange world, Li Xuan couldn't help feeling confused, and searched repeatedly in his mind, but there was no trace left. Just when he was wondering, the foreground suddenly changed, the strange world disappeared, and there was another empty world in front of him. In the center of this world, a bead emitting continuous purple-gold light was spinning non-stop. Li Xuan knew that , My consciousness has reached the place where the 'Golden Elixir' was conceived - Huang Ting Shenshi.

At this time, in the void, after countless purple lights passed, ripples suddenly appeared in the dark world, and the countless ripples intersected and merged in an instant, gathered together, and gradually formed a circle with the golden core as the center. Huge purple 'cocoons'.

Between the rings, with the 'cocoon' as the center, a strong fluctuation gradually formed. Finally, with a "boom", the strong fluctuation was suddenly stimulated from the center, like a volcanic eruption. After a series of chain reactions , all the purple air that gathered together was shaken away, and the outer mist of the 'cocoon' gradually dissipated at this time, from reality to emptiness, and then from emptiness to reality. The golden core rotated and slowly emerged, and light spots of various colors were continuously injected into it, and three groups of lavender flames were suspended above it.

Alchemy in refining the primordial spirit, in short, after refining an invisible and substanceless golden elixir, use the method of smashing the void to break away from the Huangting elixir room, turn it into a shining spirit bead, and go up to the Niwan Shrine, Finding the original surname and refining the primordial spirit is called "clear mind". After Yangshen refines the pure circle, it soars up to "see the surname" in the mind. Looking for the Yinshen of Ligong, they gather together in Niwan Palace, the room is filled with rays of light, and the whole body is white. The first battle is about to end, and it returns to the Huangting Shenshi in the abdomen, merging into a real yang fetus. Lay up the lotus platform, nourish the fetus, and then transform the primordial spirit into the fetus, warm and nourish it silently, until the time when the purple qi is deficient, the primordial infant will be well-fed, slowly leave the gate of heaven, and turn back again. Only when the baby appears, will it be able to witness the immortality.

Gossip slowly, it is said that Li Xuan quietly watched everything that happened in front of him, the Lingtai was clear and clean, humble and simple, as if it existed, as if he was out of it, and seemed to be in control of the overall situation. Under the guidance of Qi, he understood in just a moment. The dangerous place of Broken Pill Transforming Infant. Different from condensing golden elixir, if there is no corresponding heart and surname in this stage of transforming spirits, once shaken, all previous efforts will be wasted. Moreover, the timing of shattering the elixir is not under the control of the Taoist himself, it all depends on chance.

Slowly, Li Xuan's divine light became clear, and suddenly a large piece of light appeared in the state where no thought was born. In the light, there was a faint voice of the jade girl from the Immortal Mansion. Li Xuan ignored it and let it appear, but once Near Li Xuan's Niwan Shrine (the place where the spiritual thoughts were bred), immediately killed by the Purple Fire Thunderbolt, turning it into nothingness.

This phantom has happened several times in a row, no matter what it turns into, if it simply appears on the outer edge of the divine mind, the mysterious purple gas will be ignored, and if it gets close, not only will it be killed, but the ball will be suspended in the mud pill The mysterious air mass inside will also automatically assimilate the energy of its phantom.

All of this is basically done automatically. Although Li Xuan shines with inner light, he does not have a single thought, there is no flow of thinking, and there is no gap for external illusions to take advantage of. Of course, he does not know his own mud. In Marujin Palace, there is actually such a guy who doesn't recognize his relatives.

In fact, as far as Li Xuan's Taoist mind is concerned, his spiritual mind is quite strong, even without the help of the mysterious air mass, he can completely survive this catastrophe.

The evil robber comes and goes without a trace, and arrives at will. Come without a trace, go without a trace, follow the heart, the magic comes from the mind, elusive, unpredictable, random changes, like electric induction. As soon as the mind loses self-control, the devil will immediately take advantage of the situation to invade.

The seven emotions and six desires of ordinary Taoists are all obstacles in the way of cultivation, because the seven emotions and six desires, lustful, killing, and money-seeking thoughts are not entirely their own, but are subtly influenced by the external heavenly mind or the surrounding environment, so Only then will they become intoxicated, and even people who are originally extremely intelligent will act perversely and kill themselves at critical moments. The mystery of this cannot be expressed clearly in words.

With the gradual disappearance of the demonic obstacles, Li Xuan's spiritual thoughts also involuntarily spread across the small islands, lakes, caves, and restrictions, spreading towards the vast expanse of heaven and earth. At this time, the originally peaceful void suddenly became turbulent, and red lines appeared in the void. As the number of red lines increased, the frequency of the turbulence gradually accelerated, but these had nothing to do with Li Xuan. It's not that it doesn't matter, but his mind has been pulled out of the body at this time! Wherever the heart goes, where the gods go, what he cares more about now is those things outside and above the sky. For a moment, he only feels that he is one with the heaven and the earth, filled with [***] the eight wastes; just This feeling, as soon as his spiritual consciousness touched it, was immediately blown away, which made Li Xuan faintly feel an indescribable sense of oppression.

The spiritual consciousness continued to extend and grow stronger; gradually, it spread over the high mountains and drew an arc on the vast and boundless land. In an instant, countless information came pouring in, appearing in his mind one by one, but he didn't take it into consideration, his mind was relaxed, and he was just like a body without a soul, sweeping past indifferently.

At this moment, countless sorrows and joys and entanglements since he was sensible appeared one after another, and all kinds of obsessions in exploring the way of heaven after he practiced Taoism appeared one by one; at this time, after going in and out of various changes, the depths of his heart finally An indescribable signal was sent to him! That is a dark, extremely cryptic hint! Or a kind of alarm bell to remind! It was always impossible to say clearly, but it truly resounded in the depths of his consciousness!

Li Xuan was not worried about this hidden hint in the depths of his heart, but felt that this would be another way to sharpen his mind!

Walking alone on the road, but deep in his spiritual consciousness, he is thinking about things beyond the mysterious world. This change in the focus of his surname stirred up his original Dao Heart, which had no desires. At this time, the dark side of his Dao Heart finally appeared at the deepest level of his consciousness under this change. !

If he hadn't experienced the test of parting from life and death back then, his heart was strong, his heart was free from desires, and his Taoist heart had been sharpened like steel. Either his Dao Heart is damaged, and his Dao Xing retreats; or his spiritual consciousness collapses and is scattered outside the Xuanming. Take control, from now on, walking dead, only the way is eternal, or like a cold machine, no longer knowing who you are.

The Tao is the devil, and the devil is the Tao. The so-called Tao is one foot high, and the devil is one foot high.

At that moment, even if the Dao Mind and the Heaven and Earth are one body, it is only assimilated by the eternal Dao since the ages. No matter how great the supernatural power is, no matter how deep the Dao is, it will be a puppet without self after all! Or in that groggy state, corrupted by the demons from the sky, from then on forever sinking, never to recover again!

On the way to the great road, if you take a wrong step, you will regret it for the rest of your life, if you miss it, you will lose a thousand miles! The Tao is good, and the devil is good too! There is no such thing as the rotation of the Tao that day, and under the gaze of Tianxin, there is no strong will to reverse; those who know how to find the right point between the adversity and the smooth are the true Taoists; The heaven and the earth are really the same body, how to follow the law, and know what is called harmony. Therefore, one day, they will be able to realize the extreme meaning of life, be free and unrestrained, and act freely. But after all, this kind of people are only rare. How many people have there been in the past ten thousand years

Time passed slowly, and with the continuous extension of his consciousness, Li Xuan finally felt a little tired in the depths of his consciousness, but at the moment of this thought, the released consciousness was suddenly withdrawn, hovering in the Niwan Temple , Gradually dormant, and returned to silence.

Ever since he practiced, at this moment, Li Xuan truly comprehended the mystery of this point, and the bad information that had slowly accumulated in the world-related changes also slowly disappeared at this moment. Suddenly, he found that in the natural state of no desire and no desire, his own heart was born, and he saw the realm of emptiness and roundness, and the heavenly heart was pierced in his body, and he suddenly discovered that the heavenly heart is the original heart, the boundless spirit of the universe Coming rushing forward, one breath fell to the innate, and the original god was self-absorbed in the Zhongling Huangting.

"The avenue is as simple as it is, all in the place of concentration! It turns out that the real meaning of this heavy realm is like this!" And his previous practice, the so-called swallowing up the vitality, nurturing the primordial spirit, and cultivating the Taoist heart, was nothing more than "refining the qi" It's just a product. It's only now that I have improved my cultivation base and seen the round and living realm of the void. The three of my own spirit, energy and spirit are one, and the baby is waiting to be revealed.

And in this process, if there is any bias, at this time, he will face a huge catastrophe: After he has spied a considerable part of Tianxin and understood part of the "Tao", he will definitely suffer from the violent impact of Tianxin's will, That is the natural way to balance the laws of the universe between gains and losses, under the might of God. In other words, he will face the possibility of being assimilated by this eternal Dao that has been going on since ancient times. If there is a gain, there is a loss. No one can escape the rules of the game between choices.

This kind of result, no matter how he resists, is hopeless. From the avenue to simplicity, lies in the way of choice; what the sage said is true!

With the return of the divine consciousness, the vitality of heaven and earth is also entering Li Xuan's body in an orderly manner, merging into the golden elixir of Huang Ting; however, Li Xuan found helplessly that the golden elixir with a purple cocoon in the divine room of Huang Ting was still not tight. It was spinning slowly, but there was no sign of the broken pill turning into a baby; this is not a good sign! At this juncture between heaven and human beings, either it will manifest smoothly, or the alchemy will be broken. Since the ancient times, there are 10 out of 10 people who can't cross this hurdle and regret it all their lives.

"The Dao is not limited to the tangible and intangible, everything contains the Dao surname, there is nothing, there is nothing, this is the ancient way, the chapter of nature." At this critical time, Li Xuan calmed down, his mind and spirit were unified, and he seemed to exist , like a chicken embracing an egg, like a dragon raising a pearl, embracing the original and keeping the one, responding to all changes with the same, once the purple cocoon golden elixir is used, I will stand still.

After such an unknown period of time, the originally peaceful heaven and earth vitality suddenly became slightly turbulent, as if a stone had been dropped from a calm lake. In a short while, outside the building, the southern sky was filled with red clouds without warning, and a little red crystal shot straight towards Li Xuan. When it reached the top of Li Xuan, the temperature in the entire Nanchi Cave sky rose sharply. Fortunately, the red crystal didn't stay long, and even if it entered Li Xuan's body, it would have caused much trouble.
