Chapter 141: The Heart Sutra in Question (Part 1)
In the secret room, Lei Dao and Elder Taishang sat cross-legged face to face.
When Lei Dao mentioned the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, Elder Taishang fell into silence and did not speak for a long time.
The atmosphere of the entire secret room seemed to freeze all at once.
After a long time, Elder Taishang raised his head, glanced at Lei Dao deeply, and slowly spoke: "Elder Lei has also discovered this problem, so now Elder Lei is also the Supreme Elder of my Red Lotus Sect, and they are all his own people, so they should know the secrets of my Red Lotus Sect." ”
After a pause, Elder Taishang seemed to fall into a memory, and continued: "Actually, the founding patriarch of my Red Lotus Sect also obtained the Red Lotus Heart Sutra by accident, and after decades of practice, he finally became the grandmaster!
"Questions?"
Lei Dao was shocked in his heart, and felt very curious, what could be wrong with the Red Lotus Heart Sutra?
"Yes, there is a problem with the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, and the problem lies in the ninth layer! Elder Lei has read the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, and he should know that the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is a divine skill that directly points to the Great Grandmaster. When practicing the Red Lotus Heart Sutra to the ninth level of Dacheng, one can even directly raise a flower of vitality. But does Elder Lei know that once the ninth layer is completed, how huge the vitality flower cultivated by the Red Lotus Heart Sutra will be? That is simply immeasurable!"
"After a long period of deduction, the patriarch also discovered the problem of the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra. How magical is it to be able to directly cultivate the Flower of Vitality and let people step directly into the realm of the Great Grandmaster? The Grandmaster of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is mysterious, and it is not as subtle as directly condensing the Flower of Vitality. And the key lies in the ninth layer, once the ninth layer is cultivated to the fullest, then all the vitality will be turned into nutrients, in order to condense that flower of vitality!"
"Even not only the vitality, but also the energy of the whole body will be transformed into vitality by madness, and it will be turned into nutrients for the flower of vitality. Therefore, once the vitality is insufficient, or the energy is insufficient, then the moment when the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is completed is also the moment when the grandmaster dies. ”
"After years of deduction, the patriarch still can't re-improve the Red Lotus Heart Sutra. So, after cultivating the second generation of patriarchs, the founding patriarch decided to make a desperate bet to give it a try, anyway, at that time, the founding patriarch had already come to a large extent, and there were not many days left. So, the patriarch of the founding sect made a desperate bet and finally practiced the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra to the fullest. ”
At that moment, all the vitality in the Founding Patriarch's whole body was drained, and an illusory flower of vitality was condensed, looming and unable to condense at all. The Red Lotus Heart Sutra can directly condense the flower of vitality, which is not a lie. However, with the vitality accumulated by the founding patriarch for decades or even hundreds of years, it was actually unable to support the Red Lotus Heart Sutra to condense the flower of vitality. Without the vitality, the flower of vitality directly sucked all the energy in the body of the founding patriarch. The whole person of the founding patriarch quickly turned into a dried corpse. ”
The second-generation patriarch witnessed this scene with his own eyes, and he knew that the attempt of the founding patriarch had failed. The second-generation patriarch felt that the Red Lotus Heart Sutra was impossible for anyone to be able to practice, and the vitality needed to directly condense the flower of vitality was too huge, even if it was accumulated for decades or hundreds of years, it was not even enough. This magic skill is faintly evil, and the second-generation patriarch simply tore off the mental formula of the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, and from then on, there were only eight layers left of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra. ”
Hearing Elder Taishang's eloquent words, Lei Dao suddenly realized.
He had basically understood the ins and outs of the missing ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra.
It turned out that the vitality required by the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra was too huge, and it was even more so if you wanted to condense the flower of vitality. Even the ancestor of the Red Lotus Sect Creation Sect, who had almost accumulated hundreds of years of vitality, could not support him to condense the flower of vitality.
Instead, at the last moment, he was even sucked dry of his body's essence by the Flower of Vitality and turned into a dried corpse.
Since then, the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra has been deliberately torn off by the high-level of the Red Lotus Sect, leaving only the first eight layers, in fact, the main reason is that he is afraid that someone will try, which will lead to death.
"Then why didn't the Red Lotus Heart Sutra be sealed?"
Lei Dao asked curiously.
Since the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is such an evil sect, why didn't the Red Lotus Sect seal it?
Elder Taishang smiled bitterly and said, "Although the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is evil, as long as you don't practice the ninth layer, then the Red Lotus Heart Sutra still belongs to the top level of qigong. For hundreds of years, the Red Lotus Sect finally collected the Three Yin Gong and the Red Sun Gong again. But on the whole, the Red Lotus Heart Sutra is better, even if it is only the first eight layers. ”
"What's more, the first eight floors are enough. The ancestors of my Red Lotus Sect for generations, there are actually not many people who can practice the eighth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra. If you practice to the eighth layer, accumulate it day by day, slowly cultivate your qi, and if you supplement it with some heavenly and earthly treasures that enhance your essence, then you will also have the hope of condensing the flower of energy and thus achieving the great master. Why take the risk of practicing the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra?"
Lei Dao nodded, this is indeed the truth.
Knowing that there was a problem with the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, who would take the risk? What's more, even the Red Lotus Heart Sutra of the first eight layers was enough, and it did not affect the Grandmaster's condensation of the flower of energy.
Therefore, over time, no one cared about the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra.
However, Lei Dao was itching.
For him, the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra was very important. Without the ninth layer, how could he make the Red Lotus Heart Sutra come to fruition?
The Red Lotus Heart Sutra is not successful, how can he superimpose qigong?
As for the large amount of vitality required for the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, Lei Dao was not worried at all.
If his health preservation skills consume ten years of lifespan, that is equivalent to one hundred years of qigong practiced by other grandmasters! In other words, Lei Dao's health preservation skills are equivalent to the skills of other grandmasters for a hundred years!
And the Three Yin Gong is equivalent to a hundred years of power.
There is also the Red Sun Gong, which is also equivalent to a hundred years of power.
The three qigongs alone make Lei Dao almost three hundred years of power.
Maybe it's an exaggeration, after all, after superimposing, it will lose some of its vitality.
However, there is no problem with the "cultivation of qi" equivalent to two hundred years of other grandmasters. If you add Dacheng's Red Lotus Heart Sutra, the three hundred years of skill is only a lot more.
It is equivalent to the vitality of other grandmasters for three hundred years, can't it still "raise" the flower of vitality?
Therefore, Lei Dao was obsessed with the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra.
Lei Dao didn't believe it, the second-generation patriarch was really willing to completely destroy the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra? After all, it was a supreme divine skill that directly pointed at the great grandmaster!
"Elder Taishang, Lei is very interested in how the Red Lotus Heart Sutra 'raises' the flower of vitality, no matter what, Lei wants to see the complete Red Lotus Heart Sutra, maybe he has touched Lei's qigong. Please also ask Elder Taishang to fulfill it!"
Lei Dao was sincere and said with a solemn expression.
Lei Dao's attitude made Elder Taishang hesitate a little.
Obviously, what she said just now did not dispel Lei Dao's interest in the Red Lotus Heart Sutra.
"Elder Lei really wants to take a look?"
"Yes, just take a look, after all, it is the supreme magic skill that directly points to the great master, it would be a pity not to take a look. ”
Elder Taishang pondered for a while, and finally sighed and said, "That's it, let's just give Elder Lei a look." However, Elder Lei was also requested not to reveal it under any circumstances. ”
With that, Elder Taishang got up and took out a copy of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in a secret mechanism in the secret room.
Elder Taishang explained, "This is the complete version of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra copied by the second generation of patriarchs himself. At the beginning, the second-generation patriarch tore off the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in front of everyone, but in fact, how could the second-generation patriarch really bear to destroy the Red Lotus Heart Sutra? The second-generation patriarch had already quietly copied a complete volume of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, which had been secretly handed down, and only the elders of the past dynasties knew about it, not even the sect master. ”
Lei Dao's eyes lit up, and his heart was extremely happy, and he immediately took the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in the hands of Elder Taishang.
Sure enough, as he expected, the Red Lotus Heart Sutra was not really destroyed, but was secretly passed down by the second generation patriarch of the Red Lotus Sect until today.
Lei Dao knew that this Red Lotus Heart Sutra was the top secret of the Red Lotus Sect, so he didn't take it directly, but sat cross-legged in front of the Supreme Elder and read the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in person.
Lei Dao carefully checked the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, the first eight layers were no different from the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in the library pavilion, and the Red Lotus Heart Sutra in Lei Dao's hand had an additional ninth layer.
The ninth-level mental mantra is actually quite simple.
The key is how to "raise" the heart method of the flower of vitality after Dacheng, which is the most important.
Lei Dao watched it for about half an hour, and after firmly remembering the ninth layer of the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, he respectfully returned the Red Lotus Heart Sutra to Elder Taishang with both hands.
"Elder Lao, this Red Lotus Heart Sutra is really magical, it is simply miraculous, and it is worthy of being the supreme divine skill that can directly point to the great grandmaster!"
"Elder Lei is satisfied. ”
Elder Taishang also nodded and withdrew the Red Lotus Heart Sutra.
Lei Dao was right under her nose, and she naturally didn't think that Lei Dao could practice the Red Lotus Heart Sutra. After all, Lei Dao has a great future, and a grandmaster who is less than twenty years old, and he has time to slowly cultivate his qi, so where does he need to take the risk of practicing the Red Lotus Heart Sutra?
Perhaps, as Lei Dao said, Elder Taishang also felt that Lei Dao was just to satisfy his curiosity, and he didn't have any suspicions.
After all, it is still very rare to be able to directly point to the realm of the Great Grandmaster, and it is reasonable for Lei Dao to want to take a look at the complete Red Lotus Heart Sutra, which is really normal.
"Elder, Lei is leaving!"
Lei Dao was satisfied, since he had obtained the complete Red Lotus Heart Sutra, he naturally couldn't wait to go back and practice the Red Lotus Heart Sutra, so he directly bid farewell to Elder Taishang.
Lei Dao's heart was full of anticipation.
He wanted to see how amazing it was to be able to directly "raise" the flower of vitality.
Then, Lei Dao got up directly and hurriedly left Elder Taishang's secret room.
