"It's not. The old man smiled, "The old decay is just a wisp of residual thoughts, born in the Divine Mansion, and will die in the Divine Mansion, waiting for someone who is destined." ”

Jiang Changan said excitedly: "Then you are the creator of this Divine Mansion Mirror?"

The old man shook his head slightly.

"Then you know the owner of this Divine Mansion Mirror?"

The old man still shook his head.

Jiang Changan frowned, as the old man said, it looked like the old man was like a fixed afterimage, unable to move, just a fixed program, a program born from the Shenfu Mirror.

"Then do you know that there is a treasure in this fourth secret realm?"

This time, the old man didn't shake his head again, and said with a smile: "Yes, there is indeed a secret treasure in the secret realm, but it depends on Xiaoyou's ability, whether he can obtain it?"

The old man lifted his sleeves and waved his finger at the chessboard: "As long as Xiaoyou can finish a game of chess with Lao Yu and win Lao Yu, Lao Yu will hand over the treasure to Xiaoyou." ”

"Then ask the old-timers for more advice. Jiang Changan fell on the chessboard with one word, and he didn't talk nonsense, and directly began to fall.

The old man smiled, he was not in a hurry, he played the chess pieces lightly, every time Jiang Changan played, he thought about the kung fu of the first half of the tea, and then fell unhurriedly, even if Jiang Chang'an had cultivated a stable character over the years, it was inevitable that he would be impetuous.

Half an hour later, the chess pieces at Jiang Changan's fingertips finally fell and said, "I lost, let's play another game." ”

The old man stroked his beard and smiled: "Xiaoyou's mentality today is to win the treasure?"

"For the treasure, of course. Jiang Chang'an said.

The old man smiled: "Then there is no need to play again, Xiaoyou is for treasures today, not for chess, and it is the same how many games you play." Life and death are like this chess game, in the end, it is not so much that one side wins, but that one side is dead and dead. ”

The old man said: "All things are born and die, reincarnation changes, and the evolution of civilization is the rebirth of death, just like this spring, summer, autumn and winter, spring birth, summer mi, autumn goes, winter hides, spring comes again, and all things die to change." ”

When Jiang Changan heard this, his heart moved, as if he had sensed something, and he took advantage of the victory to chase after him and asked: "That old-timer thinks that the evolution of the Dao is also a change in life and death? How can the Dao die? But according to the old-timer, death and life are the continuation of the Dao, isn't this a paradox?"

"Life is the way, death is the way, the continuation of the Tao is far from enough, we must know how to break and then stand, break through the shackles of the predecessors, and find another way, so that the Tao will not stagnate. ”

Jiang Chang'an is like a student who is studying: "I don't understand, people say that the avenue is natural, why find another way, if you insist on taking a path that no one takes, wouldn't it be perverse and contrary to the law? Is this kind of way a great way? There are three chapters and twelve realms in the cultivation realm, the foundation chapter exercises the qi realm, the spiritual sea realm, the Vientiane realm, and the spring eye realm, and then enters the Dao Fruit Realm, the Cave Ruins Realm, the Renfu Realm, and the Yuanying Realm in the second chapter of the Transformation Realm, and then promotes to the Delusion Breaking Realm, the Returning to Truth Realm, and the Merge Realm of the Great Dao Chapter. In the Mahayana realm, the method of such cultivation is regarded as a holy path by fellow monks, the Great Dao!"

The old man couldn't help but nod his head at his attitude, very satisfied with Jiang Changan's attitude of studying without knowing it, and said with a simple smile: "Then Xiaoyou, do you know how these three articles and twelve realms were determined, who set them, and what is the purpose of the founder?"

Yes, people in the world only know that there are strange and mysterious methods in the world to achieve enlightenment, but no one has ever thought of going back to the source, but instead they have set their sights on many treasures, but they don't know that from the beginning, they have violated the original intention of cultivation and fallen behind.

Jiang Changan woke up like a dream, and asked for advice: "I hope that the old-timers will not hesitate to give advice." ”

"Alas-" The old man let out a long sigh, his eyes cloudy and fell into deep memories, and said: "In the ancient years of the Flood Era, it was an era dominated by beasts and birds of prey, and the chaos of that era was at the beginning, and the Nine Demons were distributed all over Shenzhou, and then the Heavenly Race created human beings and killed the Nine Demons, so that the Human Race multiplied and rose at a terrifying speed, and gradually became able to compete with the Demon Race, so that this speed was beyond the imagination of the Heavenly People——"

"Strange. Jiang Changan asked: "No matter how powerful a person is, he only has a lifespan of a hundred years before, how can he ......?"

The old man shook his head and said: "The heavenly man created man at the beginning, but he did not give him life, there is no order in the world, there is no life and death, and man will not die......"

"People don't die!" Jiang Changan said in surprise, doesn't that mean that people can live to this day hundreds of thousands of years later!

As if he saw what he was thinking, the old man said: "It's not as simple as Xiaoyou thought, soon, the celestial people realized this, there is a celestial man who uses the green lotus as the lamp, gathering all living beings in the world to have a trace of life, millions of people will be in one place, wrapped into a three-inch wick, the source of heaven and earth goblins as lamp oil, igniting the "fire of all beings", the four noble causes, the six degrees of equality, all according to it, is called - green lantern. ”

"Green lantern! Is there really a green lantern?" Jiang Changan heard this name again, and his heart inevitably throbbed, and he didn't know why.

The old man said: "The green lantern has to carry the cause and effect of all things, and all the deeds done before life are listed in the register, and the rewards are discussed, and the merits are shared." The lamp is then responsible for eliminating all kinds of karma in the previous life of the deceased soul, and then divides it into six realms and throws them into the six sacred wells in the temple to make six reincarnations. The place where all this was done was also named the 'Temple of the Dead'. ”

"Eliminate cause and effect? Isn't that just drinking Meng Po soup? Six reincarnations?Hall of Rebirth? Isn't that the Netherworld Mansion?" Jiang Changan looked up twice, the Heavenly Netherworld Mansion didn't know what this Hall of Death looked like?

The old man continued: "People have life and death, only a short life span of hundreds of years, but there must be a disadvantage, there is a gradual emergence of the law of cultivation, the so-called practice of the law is far less complete than it is now, just the details, barely able to prolong life, strengthen the body, people to the move is not known that there is spiritual power in the world, although can not fly against the rainbow, but can also fly the eaves and walk the wall, stepping on the snow without a trace. ”

"Gu Wu?" Jiang Changan said in astonishment, he didn't look at martial arts from the beginning, and the scene that the old man said now was more similar to the Gu Wu period.

Jiang Changan asked, "In that case, how did the spiritual power be discovered and used?"

The old man said with a smile: "All this is just because a scholar is angry with martial arts. ”

"A scholar?"

"Yes, a weak scholar. The old man's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.

Jiang Changan was stunned again, he thought that he was also a martial artist and a strong man, but he didn't expect to be a weak scholar.

This scholar has found the method of using qi to resist martial arts, that is, he has groped his way out of the cultivation. The old man's eyes flashed with longing, "It was a glorious era, but also a colorful era, the heroes rose together, the princes were divided, not only the scholar's way of practice, but also the practice methods of 'rejuvenation', 'broken bones and strong body cultivation', 'silent meditation scriptures' and so on, when the flowers were really full of flowers, competing for beauty, but unfortunately the last few branches gradually declined, this scholar with the qi of the martial arts method has been accepted by more people to pass on to this day, that is, the three articles and twelve realms, but the old decay thinks that only that period is worthy of being ' Dao's word!"

Jiang Changan was speechless in shock, and muttered to himself in his heart: "Countless Dao!"

The old man said: "A barren mountain, people of that era like to find their own way out, out of a path they explore, climb to the top, although some people succeed, some people fail, but they really try, on the other hand, are the footprints left by the predecessors, and gradually these footprints are stepped on the mountain' They became lazy, too lazy to find out if there was a closer road, the predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade, which was good, but they did not think that people should not just be a big tree in the shade, but a green jungle. ”

The old man let out a long sigh as he spoke, and said, " Then the battle between the two races, but also the most powerful tens of thousands of years of practice, the strong are numerous, the demon clan first has the oriental sentence mang six-character proverb oath and the heavens, the feudal emperor mirage black tower traverses the ages, the human race also has the power of various sages, and with the end of the second battle between the two races, the spiritual power in the world suddenly became more and more shallow, far from enough to be compared with the ancient period, fortunately, the two clans of the demon were aware of the war and the souls, truce and recuperate, and it took tens of thousands of years to have this peaceful Shenggu Shenzhou. ”

The old man in front of him seemed to know not only what happened tens of thousands of years ago, but also the current situation. Jiang Changan asked: "Dare to ask the seniors, what is the reason for the disappearance of spiritual power?"
