More than 1,000 kilometers away from Qingcheng Mountain, the land of Sanqin Zhongnan Mountain, the violent sunlight can not penetrate the shield of the thousand-year-old pine, the heavy hall under the ancient pine is as cool as the night, the hall is very quiet, two old Taoist priests with white hair sit cross-legged on the futon, the tea fragrance is thick on the low table in front of them, and the hot air that swims slowly urges the floating dust, and time seems to have slowed down here.

"Senior brother in charge, this time, the open research platform engaged in by the Qingcheng Mountain Library has seized the commanding heights in one fell swoop, and once this platform comes out, the world will not be able to compete with it."

The old man on the other side didn't seem to hear the complaints and the faint sourness of the junior brother, squinted his eyes as if he was smelling the fragrance of tea, and only after a while slowly stretched out his hand, pinched the teacup and sent it to his nose.

"Good tea, drinking tea is actually drinking your own heart, junior brother of the sky, the reason why the sky can tolerate all things is because of its vastness, it can be accommodated, or can it be generous, can you know?"

Li Changkong sighed and said: "Senior Brother in charge, I know what you want to say to me, but I am always a little unwilling, we are also the ancestral court of the Daomen, the same leader, why can't we become the leader of the Xuanmen?" Is it because we don't have a genius like Fangshi? ”

Mingkong Daoist smiled slightly, put down the teacup slowly, and said unhurriedly: "Fang Shi is amazingly talented, he is a character who has not come out in a thousand years, and it is the luck of Xuanmen to have such a person, it is the luck of Xuanmen, and it is the luck of you and me." ”

"I'm not dissatisfied with Fang Shi, although this kid is really uncomfortable, but Fang Shi can push open the door of a new world with one hand and build a cultivation path to a higher place, I still admire him. It's just that. Leaders are not just amazing. Popularity, heritage, vision and even ability are indispensable. How could our Zhongnan Mountain be worse than Qingcheng Mountain? And it's a pity that we've been preparing for so many years, and we've encountered a great era of secular mystery. ”

Mingkong Daoist nodded, still with a faint smile on his face, as if he was standing outside the red dust, overlooking the master of the world.

"We have what you said, and there is no shortage of Qingcheng Mountain, perhaps. The only thing that Qingcheng Mountain is inferior to ours is that the manpower is relatively cramped, or rather, their preparation is not sufficient, but compared to having the great master of Fangshi, our disadvantage is too obvious. From another point of view, the difference between us and Qingcheng Mountain is too small, and when Fang Shi stands on Qingcheng Mountain, our defeat is already doomed. ”

"Differences?"

"Yes, both from the bottom of the lineage. In terms of the concept of the future, we are too close to Qingcheng Mountain. Xuanmen fellow Daoists only need to simply compare hard power to have a choice, unless, we can come up with a concept that is completely different from Qingcheng Mountain. ”

Li Changkong frowned and pondered, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head and said, "Senior brother, are you saying that we are going to form differences with Qingcheng Mountain?" ”

Mingkong Daoren sighed, retracted the smile on his face, and shook his head lightly: "It's too late, and besides, I don't think there is a problem with the concept of Qingcheng Mountain, but we still have to be different." ”

"I get it, we have to be different! Even if this banner is wrong. ”

Mingkong Daoist nodded: "Yes, even if it is wrong, otherwise, we can only follow Qingcheng Mountain forever and eat ashes, and there is a chance to be different, once there is a problem in Qingcheng Mountain, we can replace it, even if we quietly change our course and sell dog meat with a sheep's head at that time." ”

Li Changkong smiled bitterly, did you describe yourself like that, this senior brother really has no taboos to speak, but he understands the words of the senior brother in charge, this is also the best way to maintain the team.

"And what kind of flag should we put up?"

The smile of the god stick resurfaced on the face of the Mingkong Dao people: "If you want to answer this question, you must first figure out what the flag of Qingcheng Mountain is. ”

Li Changkong didn't think about it and said: "The concept of Qingcheng Mountain has two cores, one is to advocate eclecticism and inclusiveness, to face the unknown and creativity with an open attitude, and to understand and practice with a rigorous attitude, which is written on the homepage of the open research platform. The other core idea is a bit hidden, I think Qingcheng Mountain should want to improve the traditional cultivation concept, as for the goal of improvement, I can't see it yet. ”

Mingkong Daoist glanced at Li Changkong appreciatively: "How did Senior Brother Changkong see the latter question?" ”

"I feel this after analyzing what Fang Shi did, and I always feel that his concept is different from the traditional concept, but I can't tell what the difference is."

"Yes, it's pretty good that you can see this, as for why you can't understand Fang Shi's deep thoughts, it's because you're not at this level yet, if you put your mind on cultivation, you'll definitely be able to understand what Fang Shi wants to do."

Li Changkong was a little embarrassed, he also knew that the senior brother in charge was taking the opportunity to beat himself, but he was now more concerned about what Fang Shi's purpose was, with this kind of curiosity, he couldn't reflect on himself properly, Mingkong Daoren sighed in his heart when he saw this, his junior brother had good qualifications, but his curiosity was too heavy, which made him lack some perseverance, giving people a feeling that he was always floating on the surface and difficult to sink.

"Senior Brother Head, is the level you are talking about the cultivation level?"

"Yes, after a certain level of cultivation, the training of the inner qi has become secondary, the original spirit has become the focus, and relying on the internal qi to strengthen the original spirit has come to an end, or the end of this stage, if you want to reopen the rapid improvement path of a round of dual cultivation, you need to break the shackles."

Although Li Changkong has not yet reached the bottleneck stage, he also probably understands what the senior brother in charge is talking about, which is nothing more than saying that cultivation is spiraling and rising in stages, and if you want to enter the next stage of cultivation, you must start from the Yuan Shen and break the ceiling of suppressive evolution.

Mingkong Daoist breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "And if you want to make a breakthrough of the Yuan Shen, you must work hard from the level of the ideological realm, that is, the understanding and understanding of cultivation, the way of heaven, the world, and yourself, and constantly integrate and improve your own understanding realm, and then you can break this shackle, of course, this is just my speculation." ”

Li Changkong was stunned for a moment, he suddenly thought, it seems that Fang Shi has broken this shackle, if Fang Shi threatens once, then then he shook his head violently, if Fang Shi does this, I am afraid it will backfire, people's hearts are selfish, if Fang Shi uses this matter to blackmail fellow Xuanmen and gain their support, even if Fang Shi finally discloses the secret of cultivation and promotion, and turns his head, these people who have inherited his kindness will turn their faces into enemies.

"Senior brother in charge, don't guess about this kind of thing, Fang Shi is not already"

The Mingkong Daoist smiled slightly: "Yes, Fang Shi has already placed these cultivation experiences in the Great Library Pavilion, and all the heads of the Great Gate Sect are qualified to exchange this experience, but these contents cannot be leaked." ”

Li Changkong immediately understood that the Mingkong Daoist could not tell himself directly about these contents, unless the Mingkong Daoist had broken through the shackles and then informed the doorman of his personal experience, otherwise, he could not spread Fangshi's experience, so Mingkong Daoist only said his own guesses, but did not say Fangshi's experience.

However, when the Mingkong Daoist said this, he had obviously pointed out Fangshi's experience in disguise, although it was a bit cunning to do so, but he did not break his oath at all.

Li Changkong looked at the Mingkong Daoist gratefully, and the Mingkong Daoist continued with an unchanged expression: "What you feel is the difference in Fangshi's ideological realm, and this difference will imperceptibly appear in his every move on weekdays, so after you analyze his behavior, you will naturally feel some differences, the reason is that his ideological realm and concept are different from yours and our traditional concepts." ”

"Oh?! Is this also Fang Shi's own words? ”

Mingkong Daoren shook his head with a smile: "No, although he will definitely say it in the future, but this will not be until he succeeds as the head of Qingcheng Mountain, one concept needs to be implemented, and other ideas will be excluded, do you understand?" ”

"Understand that if you are not in your position, you can't promote this idea, and you don't have enough power to push it."

"Yes, but if we know his philosophy in advance, it is equivalent to understanding the future of Qingcheng Mountain."

Li Changkong's eyes flashed, and he subconsciously leaned forward and said, "Senior Brother in charge, what is Fang Shi's philosophy?" ”

The Mingkong Daoist stroked the beard under his chin and said: "In the thousands of years of inheritance of my Huaxia Xuanmen, there have been two important traditional concepts, one is the birth of the righteous Xuanmen, the transcendent and extraordinary, and the other is the indulgence of the evil way, breaking the cocoon into a butterfly. ”

Li Changkong nodded heavily, his expression unconsciously solemnized, Mingkong Daoist talked about these two concepts, the smart Li Changkong already had some guesses, no matter what Fang Shi's concept is, it will be the same weight as these two concepts, Xuanmen has been inherited for thousands of years, there have always been only two ideas, and they have been fighting for thousands of years, and now Fang Shi has been unexpectedly undone by his predecessors, and has proposed a new concept that can compete with these two concepts, regardless of who this person is or what his position is, Such a groundbreaking character needs to be admired and admired.

The dusty smile on the face of the Mingkong Dao people didn't know when it had been put away, and his face was also solemn, and even his breathing was much longer, and the hall was even quieter, and the angry water vapor of the teapot spout seemed to be frozen, and it seemed that the whole world was still.

Fang Shi proposed the secularization of Xuanmen, in fact, this is not the same thing as secular Xuanmen, but a vision of the way out of Xuanmen, and it is also a new concept that he wants to advocate. There is no need to break the cocoon, how can you throw away the past qiē yourself, joy gains and losses, and condensing into self is the cultivation of truth. This is his philosophy: in the world, in the Tao! (To be continued......)
