Chapter 660: On the Dao
For this question, everyone was silent, and now whether they were Qin Mu's enemies or not, they all wanted to know Qin Mu's views on cultivation, just because too many miracles had happened to him, which was the result of his cultivation, then his understanding of cultivation might be able to clear the fog for himself.
Mei Xinyue suddenly spoke: "The Tao is a Tao."
Hearing this, Qin Mu's gaze couldn't help but glance at Mei Xinyue, there was no emotion in his dim eyes, there was no murderous intent in the past, there was no indifference, only the depth like the endless sea.
"What you said is right, the Tao is the Tao, so do you think that the improvement of the realm will make it easier for you to comprehend the Dao?"
Mei Xinyue's eyes moved, but she still nodded: "Isn't it true that the level of a person's realm determines their level of perception of the Great Dao, just compare refining the gods to return to the void and refining the void to merge the Dao, the latter can make the power of heaven and earth dissolve with itself, so as to reach the point where the void disappears, while the former cannot, this is the difference in the realm."
Qin Mu was silent for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, and said: "What you are talking about is indeed the gap brought about by the realm, which is also something that cannot be done by other things except the realm, but there are some things that cannot be determined by the realm, and such things are more important than the things brought by that realm, just as why I can defeat the Refining Void Merge Dao when refining the gods and returning to the void, and even defeat the peak cultivators of the Refining Void Merge Dao, but simply integrating into the void makes me unable to do this, so the things brought by the realm, It doesn't make any sense to me."
"Oh, then I'd like to hear what you call something more important than realm ascension."
"It's the perception of the avenue"
Mei Xinyue smiled slightly: "Just now you also said that the improvement of the realm can make it easier for a person to perceive the Great Dao, so why not improve the realm first, so as to make yourself better understand the Great Dao, isn't this twice the result with half the effort?"
"That's good, but I ask you, what is the difference between first improving the realm and then comprehending and comprehending while going with the flow to ascend the realm?"
"In my opinion, both can be done at the same time, and there is no difference"
"But it seems to me that it is very different"
Hearing this, Mei Xinyue's eyes condensed, and a look of doubt appeared on her pretty face, when you improve the realm, you can feel the avenue, and when you perceive the avenue, you can improve the realm, there is no conflict between the two, why is it different
"I don't quite understand"
Not to mention that Mei Xinyue was a little puzzled, everyone around was puzzled, this was originally a simultaneous thing, and there would be a difference.
At this moment, everyone in this battlefield seemed to forget their grievances and grievances, and only discussed their understanding of the Tao.
"The difference is in the heart"
"Ascending the realm with comprehension is to put the improvement of the realm in the first place, then it will plant the seeds in the heart to improve the realm higher than the avenue of perception, even if it is not intentional, but natural, and at the same time to comprehend the avenue of consciousness and naturally improve the realm, it is to put the avenue of perception in the first place, then when practicing, the first thing that comes to mind is how to perceive the avenue, not the first thought of how to improve the realm, this is what I think is the difference between the two, the difference in the heart"
"Even if, as you said, the difference between the two lies in the difference in the heart, it is only a subtle difference and does not determine anything."
"Maybe it doesn't seem like anything to you, so I want to ask, what do you think you think?"
"Comprehend the Tao, the fit with heaven and earth, and the fit with the power of heaven and earth, so that you can control more of the various forces between heaven and earth at will"
Qin Mu looked at Mei Xinyue deeply, and on his blood-stained face, a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling gradually appeared, which was so intriguing.
After a full dozen breaths, Qin Mu still didn't speak, and Mei Xinyue was also uncomfortable with the strange eyes, and said angrily: "What do you see, hurry up and answer my question"
Qin Mu shook his head and smiled: "This is what you call the Dao"
Such a rhetorical question, such a smile, made Mei Xinyue obviously feel a faint mockery, which made her grit her teeth secretly with hatred, but said quietly on the surface: "Is it wrong?"
"There's nothing wrong with that"
"That's right, what's that look on your face?"
Qin Mu didn't answer her question, but said leisurely: "Someone once asked me, in my eyes, is the Heavenly Dao merciless or ruthless, and from your words, I can guess how you will answer this question, it must be the Heavenly Dao ruthless."
"Nonsense, everyone knows"
"A poor beggar, whose life is miserable everywhere, such a person will definitely say that heaven is ruthless, and an ordinary person, who has a wife who loves each other, has a lovely child, although he has no wealth, but is ordinary and happy, such a person will definitely say that God treats me well and gives me a happy family"
Mei Xin Yuexiu frowned, and said angrily: "What do you want to say, where is so much nonsense?"
"What I want to say is, the sky is still the same, why do these two people have different feelings and opinions"
"Isn't this nonsense, of course it's a different mood" Mei Xinyue said disdainfully at first, but then she sighed lightly, and her eyes also moved, as if she understood something.
Qin Mu smiled slightly: "What you think of as the ruthless Heavenly Dao is because what you are looking for is the ruthless power between heaven and earth, in your eyes, there are only all kinds of power in heaven and earth, the five elements, space, yin and yang, and maybe the seven emotions and six desires of people, all of which are what you are pursuing, even if you borrow the seven emotions of yin and yang in your body to cultivate, you will never be able to get rid of the ruthless nature of the Heavenly Dao in your hearts."
"Heaven is ruthless, heaven is ruthless, it is all in your thoughts, if you are affectionate, everything in heaven and earth is affectionate, if you are ruthless, everything in heaven and earth is ruthless"
After Qin Mu finished speaking, he slowly stretched out his right hand, not seeing any aura fluctuations on his body, but his right palm slowly lit up with a faint red light, like a layer of faint red mist wrapping his palm, and with the appearance of this faint red light, the void around it also turned red, and then, a flame appeared in the red void, an illusory flame like a ghost fire.
"Is the flame really merciless?"
"Is it really just the power of destruction?"
"If you say yes, if you say no, it is not, it can destroy everything, it can burn everything that can be burned, but it can also give birth to life"
As soon as the words fell, a loud phoenix roared suddenly from the illusory flames, and an illusory flame bird suddenly appeared, it was a fire phoenix with a graceful posture, soaring in the red space around Qin Mu.
Questions like "Is that flame merciless or merciless" left everyone speechless.
In the blink of an eye, the red light on Qin Mu's palm disappeared, the surrounding red void disappeared, and the fire phoenix also disappeared, and then his palm lit up with a faint blue light, and the surrounding void also turned blue, and rippled layer by layer, as if this was a water space.
"Water can give birth to all kinds of life, and it is regarded as the source of life" accompanied by his words, and all kinds of life were born out of the water waves, and all kinds of algae and all kinds of fish were constantly changing, as if they were staging a rapid passage of time for everyone.
"But water can also destroy everything" When the words fell, the life in the water disappeared, and the layers of water waves turned into stormy waves.
"Is the water merciful or merciless?"
"Just in your thoughts"
Qin Mu dispersed the blue light outside his palm, and the surrounding void also turned back to normal, muttering: "It is not the way of heaven that is ruthless, not the various forces between heaven and earth, but in the human heart."
Qin Mu's seemingly ordinary, but somewhat incredible power made Mei Xinyue's beautiful eyes light up slightly, but then the corners of her mouth turned up, and said: "Having said so much, I still don't understand what you mean Heaven is ruthless and ruthless, it is important that there are thousands of avenues, everyone's path is different, but the result is the same, it is like there are many roads that can reach the end, and they may not have to take the same road."
Qin Mu smiled slightly: "There is only one destination, but there are thousands of roads, and the distance of different roads is different, some are a horse Pingchuan, but the distance is a little farther, some are full of thorns but the distance is a little closer, the road of a horse and Pingchuan is safe, and the road of thorns is full of unknowns."
"I don't know where your road is, but my road is full of unknowns and crises, but all kinds of crises have allowed me to see different scenery on the road, pay more, and get more"
"My Tao is full of dangers, but the scenery is infinite, and my Tao is affectionate, just because in my eyes everything has a spirit"
Mei Xinyue pondered for a moment and said again: "This still doesn't explain why you can exert power in this realm that is far from what you can get in this realm."
"Get"
Qin Mu smiled slightly: "I don't get, but see, I can see the vastness of the sea, so I can tell about its magnificence, you can't see it, so you can't appreciate it"
"If you want to get it, you must first see, when you only want to chase the sun on the horizon, you will never smell the fragrance of flowers and plants on the roadside, when you only want to climb the top of Wanren Mountain, you will not be able to appreciate the strength of every mountain rock standing for thousands of years."
"The height of the mountain is also composed of countless sand and stones, the width of the sea, and there is every drop of water gathered, and the world pursues the Tao, so who can tell me what the Tao is"
Having said so much, this question comes back again, what kind of cultivation, what realm, what kind of affection and ruthlessness, what path is different, all of them are just vain, and the most authentic inquiry is still what is the Tao and what is the Tao
Everyone immediately looked at each other, Qin Mu and Mei Xinyue asked each other a lot, but they were always in the clouds, and now as soon as such a simple question came out, they suddenly found that they didn't know what the Tao they had been pursuing was at all
Mei Xinyue groaned for a while, but finally gritted her teeth and said: "The Tao is the Tao."
