As for the so-called "three calamities", there is also a relevant description in the original work of "Journey to the West"-

Bodhi Ancestor said to Wukong: "This is the extraordinary way: the creation of heaven and earth, the mystery of invading the sun and the moon; After Dancheng, the ghosts and gods are intolerable. Although you live in Yan Yishou, but after 500 years, a thunderstorm will hit you from the sky, and you must see your nature and mind and avoid it in advance. If you can dodge, you will live with Tianqi, but if you can't dodge, you will die. Five hundred years later, a fire will burn you. This fire is not a heavenly fire, nor is it a mortal fire, it is called 'yin fire'. Burning from under its own springs, it penetrates the mud wall, the five organs turn into ashes, and the limbs are decayed, and the thousands of years of asceticism are illusory. In another five hundred years, another wind and calamity will blow you. This wind is not the southeast and northwest wind, not the wind of Xun Jinshuo, nor the wind of flowers, willows, pines and bamboos, it is called 'the wind'. Blowing into the six intestines from the fontanelle, passing through the dantian, wearing the nine orifices, the flesh and bones are sparse, and the body is self-dissolving. ”

To sum up, the "three calamities" are: first, the heavenly thunder tribulation; second, the Yin Fire Tribulation; Third, the catastrophe.

These three tribulations are what you will experience after cultivating to become a Taiyi True Immortal, and they sound like they are no different from ordinary heavenly tribulations, but they are indeed not trivial.

These three tribulations, unlike other thunder tribulations, are rooted in the hearts of monks, and they must be "clear and insightful, stick to their own hearts" in order to survive safely.

And the "five hundred years" that Bodhi Ancestor said is actually just an imaginary number, not that there are calamities every five hundred years, but like all the previous realms, it will come whenever he is promoted.

When Taiyi True Immortal was promoted to Taiyi Xuan Immortal, the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation came; When Taiyi Xuanxian was promoted to Taiyi Golden Immortal, the Yin Fire Tribulation came; When Taiyi Golden Immortal was promoted to Da Luo Golden Immortal, the Wind Tribulation came.

After arriving at Da Luo Jinxian, it is truly disaster-free, with the same longevity as the sky, and the endless time and space are eternal and free - of course, the premise is that the heavens and the earth do not fall and the universe is immortal.

The three major calamities are all from the inside out, the combination of virtual and real, and the end is extremely powerful, no matter how high the cultivation is, if the heart is insufficient, the Taoist heart is not solid, I am afraid that it will also fall into it.

In "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong practiced in Fangcun Mountain for ten years, and after entering the Taiyi True Stream, Bodhi Ancestor taught him the "Seventy-two Techniques of Earth Evil" to avoid the benefits of the three disasters.

This is not to say that you have to be a Taiyi True Immortal to be able to practice the seventy-two techniques of the earth, after all, like Zhu Bajie and the like, they also know the thirty-six methods of Tiangang.

And the thirty-six methods of Tiangang are actually not inferior to the seventy-two techniques of the earth in terms of grade and difficulty, this is just a misunderstanding of Sun Wukong - after all, the two methods that can be proposed by Bodhi Ancestor together, how can there be too much difference?

And the reason why Bodhi Ancestor didn't teach him the seventy-two techniques of earth evil until Sun Wukong's cultivation was successful, was because he saw the nature of monkeys, that is, it was easy to be half-hearted and difficult to concentrate on cultivation.

If you teach the monkey the seventy-two techniques of earth shattering before he has achieved success, with the monkey's personality, he must be happy to see the hunter, and it will inevitably delay the cultivation of the Great Dao.

And Yang Jian's temperament is different from Sun Wukong, plus he has experienced a great disaster at home, and now his mother is still suffering in heaven, so he can naturally distinguish the priority of cultivation.

Therefore, Yuding Zhenren directly handed over the seventy-two techniques of the Earth Demon to him.

After all, Yuding Zhenren now knows that Yang Jian is now a "black household" in Heavenly Court, although no one knows that he is still alive, but in the future, he will always be aware of it, and it is not an exaggeration to have more magical secret skills in his body.

It's not that the exposition of the teachings is afraid of the heavenly court, but now that the catastrophe is coming, the Yuan Shi Tianzun received the decree of the ancestor of Hongjun, and ordered the second generation of disciples to close the mountain gate after 30 years, and send the disciples down the mountain to enter the robbery.

At this time, the rise of Heavenly Court is already the trend of the times, and there is even more Heavenly Dao will to keep an eye on it behind it, and the exposition of the sect does not dare to compete too much with Heavenly Court on the surface.

Yuding Zhenren really loves this newly accepted disciple, so he teaches him wholeheartedly, teaches him with all his heart, and even wishes to be able to raise him to the realm of Taiyi True Immortal within thirty years.

In this way, Lin Feng was completely cheap, and in the next two months or so, he learned the secret technique all over again.

When Yang Jian had only mastered this technique, Lin Feng could almost be said to have entered the room.

This is also a matter of course, one is just the Mahayana period, and the other is the peak of the Golden Immortal, which is simply bigger than the gap between junior high school students and university professors, how can there be no gap in learning speed?

The Seventy-two Techniques of Earth Heal are far more than just a technique of change, but contain a full seventy-two powerful supernatural powers.

These supernatural powers are: passing through the secluded, driving away the gods, carrying the mountain, forbidding water, borrowing the wind, spreading the fog, praying for sunshine, praying for rain, sitting on the fire, entering the water, covering the sun, resisting the wind, boiling stones, spitting flames, swallowing knives, kettling the sky, walking on the water, walking on the water, dissolving the staff, doppelganger, invisibility, continuation, fixing, killing demons, inviting immortals, chasing souls, retrieving spirits, summoning clouds, taking the moon, carrying, marrying dreams, fragmentation, sending rods, breaking the stream, calamity, relieving misfortune, yellow and white, swordsmanship, shooting, earth walking, stars, array, false shape, spraying, fingering, There are 72 kinds of autopsy, shifting scenes, summoning, leaving, gathering beasts, adjusting birds, qi banning, vigorously, penetrating stones, generating light, obstructing clothes, guiding, eating, opening walls, jumping rocks, sprouting heads, copying, drinking water, lying in the snow, storming the sun, making pills, talisman water, medicine, knowing the time, knowing the land, bigu, and praying for nightmares.

Although there are seventy-two types of these supernatural powers, there are many variations in each of them, and these contents can be said to be all-encompassing, including almost all the well-known "immortal methods".

And the so-called "change" technique is just a "false form" among these seventy-two supernatural powers.

Moreover, the means in the seventy-two techniques of this earth demon are supreme secret techniques that point directly to the Great Dao.

For example, the "yellow and white" in this is the so-called "art of turning stones into gold". However, the general turning stones into gold only changes the external appearance of matter, and what the internal essence should be or what it should be, can be said to be just a "blinding method".

And this "yellow and white technique", as long as the practitioner is sufficient, can change the essence of matter, and truly change the "stone" from the internal structure into "real money".

Speaking of this "false form", many other transformation techniques, the inferior ones are pure spiritual illusions.

It's like the so-called changes that Lin Feng often cast, but in fact it's just an illusion, with his own strong spiritual power, people whose mental power is weaker than themselves feel that their appearance has changed, but in fact it's not at all.

And the slightly more clever is that even the physical body has also made some changes, but the true soul origin is still in its original state.

This kind of change technique, once you encounter someone who is equal to your own strength, or even higher, it can be seen through at a glance.
