The sun and the moon represent the yin and yang of the world respectively. The sun is the most respected in the blue sky during the day, while the bright moon is guarded by the stars at night. At this moment, the bright moon suddenly shines, illuminating the world, and the mountains, seas, four continents and five seas are all shaken.
Inside the city of Gaoyang, on the streets of the Confucian Temple Lantern Festival, tens of millions of pedestrians and common people looked up at the sky together. It seemed that the bright moon today had dispersed the thousands of miles of clouds, and it seemed as if it was about to fall from the sky to the earth. It was so big that it was unbelievable.
"The Moon God has appeared! It's the Moon God who has appeared!" Many people shouted loudly, calling out to the ancient god of Gao State, the Moon God.
"Today's moon view is probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Some scholars and literati were overjoyed and cheered for seeing such a beautiful sight.
The governor of Gaoyang County had a gloomy expression at this moment, and he did not have the joy like the common people and scholars outside, because every time such a big phenomenon occurred, it must mean that the heaven and the earth will undergo a big change, and the academy was the group of people who least wanted the heaven and the earth to undergo a big change, because every time this happened, there would be chaos in the world.
"Historical records show that every time a strange phenomenon appears in the sky, a great change is about to happen. The underworld will open, gods will be born, and the wise men will reincarnate to achieve immortality. Even the last time Da Pan was destroyed, the stars fell and a blood moon appeared in the sky."
In the tall City God Temple, the City God of Gaoyang, wearing a priest's robe, looked up and said, "The Dao is divided into yin and yang, and the sky has the sun and the moon. The bright moon suddenly showed such a strange phenomenon. Could it be related to the rumors of the road to immortality spread from Yin Tianzi City?"
At this moment, the pleasure boat was going upstream along the waterfall and climbing up Shuwang Mountain. However, the moment it reached the top of the mountain, the flowing waterfall suddenly stopped, and the whole boat was suddenly lying across the waterfall above the mountain.
A thousand-foot-long silver light suddenly burst out from Fang Xiu's body as he sat on the top floor of the pleasure boat. Layer upon layer of talismans and prohibitions vibrated out and enveloped the entire Shuwang Mountain.
The nine-tailed celestial fox Bai Mei, who was kneeling at the bottom, suddenly straightened up and saw that the Fengdu Taoist, who had been staring at the sky, finally stopped looking at the bright moon and lowered his head to look at them.
“I’ve finally been waiting for this!”
Layers of white light swept across the Taoist in white, as if he was sitting in a white ocean, enveloping everything in the world.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he sat cross-legged in the void, just like the Taoist preaching the great way of heaven and earth, or just like the Buddha smiling while holding a flower.
This scene stunned everyone in the Bai family, the Nine-tailed Sky Fox. As the power of the Taoist in white continued to seep out, the entire Shuwang Mountain was frozen in place, and the flow of time seemed to slow down.
"The road to immortality has been opened!"
"I will attain enlightenment and become an immortal!"
As soon as the words came out, they exploded in everyone's heart like thunder.
"Become an immortal?"
Many of the women looked blankly at the sea of stars and the bright moon outside the window: "The road to becoming an immortal is open?"
In an instant, the painted spirit fan held by the Sky Fox Bai Mei fell to the ground. The jade pendant hanging on it made a crisp sound. She looked at the Taoist in white in disbelief: "True Lord... is... going to become an immortal?"
After saying this, although there was no answer, Bai Mei's face showed that he already knew the result. What Fengdu Zhenjun said meant that he was really going to take this step.
This result was shocking, but it also seemed not unexpected at all, as if the Taoist in white clothes in front of him was born to be a fairy or a saint, a natural immortal god.
Bai Mei couldn't hide the shock and excitement on her face. She felt endless admiration for the man in front of her. Fengdu was a person who had traveled through mountains and seas since the barbaric era. He was the first person to arrive at Youdu Fairyland and open the door to gods and demons. He was a sacred sage of the human race who founded Taoism and the academy. Even in Youdu Fairy Island, he was the ancestor and belief of countless demons.
"And now, are you finally going to become the first immortal being to achieve immortality?"
After the Taoist in white said that, a beam of light shot up into the sky. At this moment, the bright moon was rising in the sky, and the light on Fang Xiu's body merged with the light of the moon into one.
The light can be seen within a radius of thousands of miles.
The people of Gaoyang County just saw a strange phenomenon in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they saw a pillar of light rising into the sky from Shuwang Mountain not far away. The power displayed in the pillar of light was far beyond the imagination of the county governor and the city god in the city. Even some immortal realm masters who were who knows how many miles away looked at this place in shock.
The Taoist in white slowly stood up from the pleasure boat, and ascended to heaven as if he was walking on immortal steps. He faced the bright moon, and his white Taoist robe merged with the light. His body absorbed the moonlight and star power, which continuously merged into his body.
The connection between the magic power, soul and body in the body is completely opened up, which means that one has entered the sixth step of the mortal's spiritual practice of ascending to heaven, that is, the sixth level of tribulation. After crossing this step, one can ascend to become an immortal and achieve immortality.
To guide the star power into the body is equivalent to announcing to the heavens that one has begun to overcome the tribulations and become an immortal, and to embark on the path to immortality. The Taoist in white guides the moonlight into the body, which is equivalent to choosing the silver moon as the main star.
The immortal calamity is divided into three disasters and six disasters, which are divided into the front and the back. The three disasters form the immortal body, and the six disasters prove the great way.
The three disasters are longevity fire, plague wind, and Yin spring.
These three disasters represent the calamities of aging, illness and death for a mortal. They also foreshadow the three levels of human fire, heavenly wind and earthly water. Surviving the fire caused by the three disasters and six catastrophes represents the gradual beginning of breaking free from the limitations of lifespan and erasing the limitations of the mortal body.
The wind disaster sheds the mortal body and forges an immortal body. When it disperses, it becomes wind, and when it gathers, it takes shape.
The last disaster, Yinquan, represents the underworld. Its name was wiped out from the Book of Life and Death, and its name was listed in the Book of Immortals. From then on, he jumped out of the six realms of reincarnation and no longer suffered the pain of reincarnation.
After the three disasters, although they have not yet passed the six tribulations and ascended to heaven or the starry sky, they are already considered true immortals on earth and living gods and Buddhas. They are not bound by life and death and do not enter the six realms of reincarnation.
These three disasters and six calamities are all brought down by the caves outside the sky. Every star cave in the sky represents a different avenue of heaven and earth.
By seducing the power of the stars to fall, overcoming the catastrophe and becoming an immortal, and comprehending the great way of heaven and earth contained in the starry cave, one can master the great way of heaven and earth. Only by sensing the power of the stars can one trigger the catastrophe, and finally ascend to the corresponding cave heaven and star palace, and no longer stay in the human world.
Guided by the bright moon, Fang Xiu stepped onto the sea of clouds. He spread out his arms. The bright moon was behind him, as if they had merged into one. His body gradually became brighter, and at this moment, two bright moons appeared in the sky of Gaoyang County.
"Look, there's another bright moon in the sky!"
"What's going on today? Why are so many strange things happening at the same time?" Even some ordinary people felt that something was wrong.
"No, that's not the moon. Who is it? He actually transformed himself into the bright moon?" The City God was stunned by this huge change. He couldn't believe that at this time someone would dare to transform himself into the bright moon and create a situation where two moons appeared in the sky.
"There is someone in the moon!" Many practitioners saw more different things.
"That's not the moon, it's someone who turned into the moon. What does he want to do?" Every practitioner could feel the shocking power coming from afar. They were shocked and terrified. They had no idea why such a situation suddenly appeared, and they were afraid that they would be caught in a disaster if they were not careful.
"Who is this? The Taoist in white? I'm afraid that only the legendary Taoist of Fengdu can have such power? Could it be that he has returned to Dongzhou again?" The City God of Gaoyang County was born in Mingxin Academy and knew more about the situation in the world and the powerful practitioners.
The Taoist who was sitting cross-legged in the bright moonlight above the sky slowly opened his eyes at this time.
"In three days, I will attain immortality. Anyone who is predestined can come and see me!"
The sound was not loud, but all the practitioners within a radius of thousands of miles could hear it clearly.
At this moment, all the practitioners in Gaoyang County were shocked as they looked at the figure that turned into the bright moon.
"Become an immortal?"
"Who is this person? How dare he claim to have become an immortal?"
"Turning oneself into the bright moon and taking the place of the heart of heaven, I'm afraid only those legendary figures can do this!"
"There are probably less than five people in the world who can do this! And we have to include those in the underworld."
