Chapter 502: The Bridge of Heaven and Man (Part II)
Looking at Shen Lao's movements, it was as if he was really holding a round thing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In Taoism, there are various descriptions of Jindan, the golden one, the strong and eternal incorruptible; Dan is a thing that is perfect and pure. There is even a golden pill swallowed in the stomach, and my life is not up to the immortal family.
Jin Dan, this kind of thing is too illusory, too ethereal, anyway, I have never seen that kind of thing, at least Lao Dao, the big names of the Living Buddha do not have Jin Dan, and it is also possible that they have not yet cultivated to that realm.
But looking at Shen Lao's movements at this time, I really felt that there was a golden pill in his lower abdomen, which was slowly being held up by him.
"What is the Tao?" Just as I was thinking about it, a loud voice suddenly appeared in my head, and I was sure that it had not passed through my ears, but seemed to have been stuffed directly into my head.
This voice is Shen Lao's, although I don't understand how he did it, let alone how he is obviously breaking through at this time, and how he pays attention to my side, but I know that he is taking me to experience the mystery of stepping into the fourth realm.
I took the time to take a look at the old housekeeper and found that his state was similar to mine, obviously Shen Lao did not favor one over the other, listening to Shen Lao's voice almost with ease, my heart couldn't help but let go a little, and I was ready to put it on the question just now.
What is the Tao?
I'm afraid that if a thousand people were to speak, there would be a thousand answers.
However, in my opinion, as the so-called Tao is natural, then the Tao is nature, a cycle of all things, a natural law, and water flows from a high place to a place, which is the Tao. The leaves of the tree fall from the branches, and it is the way. People grow up slowly, it is the way. And death, too, is the Tao.
It is precisely because the Tao is different in everyone's eyes that our great sages expounded on this issue thousands of years ago. It means that the Tao can be heard, seen, and felt, but it cannot be expressed.
"I am the Way." Shen Lao didn't seem to expect my answer in the first place, so his next words naturally appeared in my mind again.
"Am I the Way?" I looked at the back with some surprise, Shen Lao at this time, without a trace of old age, his expression was wide, and he opened his hands, as if he wanted to grasp the whole world in his hands, domineering.
"The first realm cultivates the body, the second realm cultivates the inside, from the outside to the inside, and then the innate is reversed, this is the Tao!"
"Refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, is the third realm, that is, the unity of human body essence and spirit, this is also the Tao!"
"Refining the gods and returning to the void is to return to the origin, refining the void and merging the way, and it is to reflect the avenue of the sky with my way, which is the fourth realm."
"Therefore, if you want to break through to the fourth realm, you must first cultivate yourself, cultivate your spirit, cultivate yourself, find out your own nature, be consistent from the beginning, and then condense into a seed, which is the Dao seed."
"The germination of the seed, this is also the Tao, when you fully master your own Tao, then you are qualified to try to understand the Tao of heaven and earth, success, then the fish leaps into the dragon gate, the Tao seed metamorphosis, into the heart of the Tao, from then on the real unity of heaven and man, I am the heaven."
Shen Lao's voice was sonorous and powerful, with an indomitable determination, with his words, his whole person's spirit and spirit were mentioned to the peak, and even at this moment, his hair that had begun to turn gray also turned black, black with the breath of life, and the whole person was also a little taller, originally Shen Lao was only about one meter seven, but now it is one meter eight, just from the back, you can't tell that this is an old man at all, more like a burly young man.
When he continued to reach the apex, Shen Lao suddenly shouted, "Open!" ”
A white mist erupted from his mouth, as if it was directly detonating the air, and the ears of the people who shook him buzzed, but the next moment, I couldn't help but open my mouth wide, just because I saw a dreamy scene.
I saw that distant sky, the originally thick and low clouds seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible big hands, yellow, or golden, as if there was purple, and many colors, at that moment, I seemed to see the gods descend to earth, this kind of light poured down from the depths of the clouds, faintly forming a ladder of heaven, across a long distance, extending to the feet of Shen Lao.
At this time, even if someone says that Shen Lao stepped out and wanted to go up to the sky to be an immortal, I would not object, the verbal description is not as good as what I have seen with my own eyes, and it is shocking, one-tenth, one-hundredth, or one-ten-thousandth?
No wonder there are often various rumors in ancient books about the rainbow leaving, isn't Shen Lao's appearance about to turn into a rainbow at this time? There is a rainbow paving road under the feet, the sea of clouds above the head is churning, there is the sun hanging down, and there is a faint Qionglou palace inside, which makes people yearn for it.
I wouldn't be surprised if anyone saw this scene and made up a fairy world.
This is the scene when you break through to the fourth realm? And this is only the fourth realm, so what will happen to the fifth realm in the future? Although even the old Tao said that the fifth realm has become a legend, which is close to legend, but even if the legend is good, what will happen to the fifth realm? Is it true that the feather ascends to the sky? Since then, the North Sea has traveled in the twilight, and the green snake in his sleeve is bold?
And the kind of method that Shen Lao used just now was also terrifying, with a scolding, the clouds in the sky would be dispersed for it, is this a lesson from words, and words are out of the law? Will I be able to reach this level one day?
"Teacher, you, you..." Just when all kinds of thoughts appeared in my heart, I only felt a flower in front of me, and when I looked carefully, I found that Shen Lao had appeared in front of me, at this time he seemed to be the same as before, still slightly stiff something, or gray hair, but I just saw that all this has changed, is this just my illusion? Otherwise, why would the teacher be like this again?
And the rainbow bridge also disappeared at this time, the sky and the sea of clouds returned to its original state, the sun did not continue to fall, everything seemed to return to the original point, or was it all a dream? Did I come up with it myself?
I frowned and pinched my thighs hard, but in the next second, my eyes were already wide, painful, damn painful, such pain should not be a dream, but why is it so, is it possible?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but show horror on my face, "Teacher, you, you failed?" ”
This is almost the result that I am most unwilling to face, I even thought it was because of myself, if Shen Lao hadn't been distracted and said so much in my mind just now, maybe I wouldn't have failed, thinking of this, my whole person seemed to be wrapped in remorse, and my heart ached.
If it's really my fault, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time forgiving myself for the rest of my life, and I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life.
"Who said I failed?" Shen Lao smiled slightly.
I saw the smile on his lips, and his relaxed demeanor, as if, as if he was happy, didn't he fail? But there was no failure, how could Shen Lao return to his previous appearance?
"You can take a good look and see how I am different from before." Shen Lao asked as he stood in front of me with his hands behind his back.
Different? Doesn't seem to be any different, right? For memory, I have always been very confident, otherwise Shen Lao would not accept me as a student and teach me what I have learned, but according to the previous comparison in my mind, I didn't find any difference at all, if there really is, that is, the demeanor, now it is more relaxed, and even has a feeling of being in control, but this feeling will not make people feel domineering, it is a very natural identity, yes, it is identity.
I thought about Shen Lao's question again, and began not to continue to dwell on his image, in this way, it made me see more things, at this time, the sky was still dark, from us here, it was a long story, but in fact it was less than half an hour, and there was even wind blowing around, but no matter how I looked at it, I had a special feeling, like something was wrong.
Wind? I suddenly realized that something was wrong, and I soon noticed that the cold wind suddenly became supple as it passed by him, and then gently bypassed him and continued to howl.
Normally, this is simply impossible, with my current strength, if I muster up the mana in my body, I can also block the surrounding wind from my body, but that is just a block, and Shen Lao is fundamentally two concepts at this time.
At this time, Shen Lao is more like an elf in the wind, and he can manipulate the wind around him when his mind moves, and he can do whatever he wants.
"How? Found out? Shen Lao continued to ask me with a smile.
"Teacher, this wind?" I directly asked the doubts in my heart, because I couldn't understand how Shen Lao did all this, could it be that this was the strength of the fourth realm, or rather, Shen Lao really succeeded?
"Now, look at it again." Instead of answering my question, Shen Lao asked again.
Right now? I immediately widened my eyes and continued to observe the wind around Shen Lao, but this time, I found that the cold wind seemed to have returned to normal, still blowing Shen Lao's meaning, and I couldn't see anything abnormal.
"Nope." I said, after finishing speaking, I was afraid that Shen Lao would not understand what I meant, so I simply added, "The power that can manipulate the wind is gone." ”
"Yes, very carefully." Shen Lao nodded, after all, the wind is impermanent, it is even more invisible, and it can detect the changes of the wind, and the observation must be subtle.
"Teacher, what happened just now?" I couldn't help the curiosity in my heart, and simply asked directly, At this time, the old housekeeper had already gathered around me, and he looked at Shen Lao with the same curiosity, obviously, he also saw it.
"That is the power of the Tao, the power of the unity of heaven and man." Shen Lao said slowly.
"The power of the Tao and the unity of heaven and man?" I frowned, even more puzzled, after all, with my current realm, I have just come into contact with the unity of heaven and man, and I can't even control it, let alone really understand it.
As for the Tao, through the explanation of the old Tao just now, I understand a little bit, but that is not enough to explain all this in front of me.
