Chapter 42: Three Rubbings

"This is the Scripture Pavilion!"

Looking at the empty surroundings and the Tao Te Ching in the center, Shen Rouxue realized that she had come to the fifth floor of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion at some point.

It's just that what she can't understand is why Ji Fengyun brought her to the fifth floor of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion.

Su Yi also felt a little inexplicable, but there was only one Tao Te Ching in the fifth layer of this Hidden Scripture Pavilion, and Ji Fengyun brought Shen Rouxue here, presumably related to the Tao Te Ching.

Ji Fengyun turned his back to Shen Rouxue, raised his hand and grabbed the Tao Te Ching in the center, and said slowly: "There are some things that I can't say in front of others, you are my apprentice, and I have always had great expectations for you, and now that there is no one around, I can rest assured that I can tell you." ”

Shen Rouxue frowned, a little at a loss.

Ji Fengyun continued: "In order to rescue you from the Desolate Spirit Domain, I have consumed some of my cultivation, and I will soon have to retreat and recover in order to deal with the upcoming catastrophe, but there are some things that I really can't rest assured, so I hope you can help me complete it." ”

"Ahh

If you are only slightly injured, you can recover by meditating for a period of time, but the attrition and cultivation is a very serious thing for a monk, and it is not something that can be recovered after a day or two of rest.

She even suspected that Ji Fengyun's depleted cultivation was not a little bit, otherwise she wouldn't have vomited blood before.

Monks are always indifferent and selfish, and generally few people are willing to consume their cultivation to save others, but Ji Fengyun just did it, as Ji Fengyun's disciple, Shen Rouxue didn't know whether to be moved or proud.

Su Yi also secretly expressed his admiration for Ji Fengyun's selflessness, perhaps even Yunzong could only move towards a more brilliant future under the leadership of such a leader.

However, he is more concerned about the things that Ji Fengyun can't rest assured, since he is here, could it be that the things that Ji Fengyun can't rest assured are still related to the Tao Te Ching?

Ji Fengyun seemed to feel Shen Rouxue's worry, he waved his hand, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry too much, the depleted cultivation will be able to recover sooner or later, but the Heaven and Earth Tribulation doesn't know when it will come, I need to prepare early." ”

Shen Rouxue took a deep breath, and then spoke: "Master, please command, Rouxue will do her best to complete Master's entrustment." ”

Ji Fengyun nodded, then turned to look at Shen Rouxue, "Have you read this Tao Te Ching?" When you met that monster in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, I didn't ask you what was going on, now you tell me first." ”

"Good. Shen Rouxue nodded and said what happened without concealment.

After hearing this, Ji Fengyun couldn't help but glance at the Qingyun Sword in Shen Rouxue's hand, and said in a strange tone: "This Qingyun Sword is quite strange in your hands, but it is also a very rare thing to have such a sword to protect the master, you have to cherish it." ”

"I understand. Shen Rouxue bowed her head slightly.

Ji Fengyun said again: "The monster was not completely wrong at the beginning, the immortal scrolls in the Book of Heaven are indeed in our Xizhou, and many predecessors have seen the immortal scrolls, but there are only three immortal scrolls in total, and now the real immortal scrolls have disappeared." ”

"Three books, aren't many seniors have seen the immortal scroll?, why are there only three rubbings?" Shen Rouxue was suddenly a little puzzled.

"Just because you've seen it doesn't mean you can understand the essence of it, and if you can't understand the essence, even if you see it, it's in vain. Ji Fengyun shook his head, "Many of the sect's records about the Book of Heaven are unknown, but I know one thing, the text on the Book of Heaven is not the same as the rubbing version of the Tao Te Ching in our hands, and only those who are recognized by the Book of Heaven can understand the content of the Book of Heaven." ”

"I see. Shen Rouxue suddenly understood.

Ji Fengyun pondered for a moment, and then said: "Our Xizhou monks originally cultivated martial arts, and although the martial arts cultivation to the extreme can open mountains and gravel, but after all, there is no way to transcend life and death. ”

"I know that, I've heard that youkai say it. Shen Rouxue nodded in understanding.

Ji Fengyun said: "But using martial arts to prove the Immortal Dao is only the cultivation method of some monks in Xizhou, and our Lianyun Sect ancestor decided to let the disciples in the sect directly cultivate the Immortal Dao after getting the Heavenly Book Rubbing, so our Lianyun Sect can rise among many cultivation sects and become the most powerful sect in Xizhou today." ”

"Are we cultivating the Immortal Dao directly?Then why do we have to cultivate martial arts when our cultivation has not yet reached the Soul Bridge Realm?besides, I heard that many elders of the sect are also famous for their martial arts. Shen Rouxue was suddenly a little puzzled.

"Immortal cultivators have the opportunity to comprehend powerful supernatural powers, but not all immortal cultivators can comprehend supernatural powers, monks below the Soul Bridge Realm, the divine soul is not yet stable, and forcibly comprehending supernatural powers will only make the physical body collapse, and immortal cultivation and martial arts are not affected, so there is a saying that martial arts are practiced under the Soul Bridge. ”

Ji Fengyun explained, "In fact, now a few elders in our sect still haven't comprehended their own supernatural powers, and among the young disciples, only you and Wushuang have comprehended their own supernatural powers, but it's a pity that Wushuang is this person."

I don't know if I thought of something, Ji Fengyun shook his head again and again, but he didn't finish his words.

"What's wrong with Senior Brother Chu?" Shen Rouxue suddenly remembered the rumors in the sect, it was said that Chu Wushuang was originally the most promising person to become Ji Fengyun's disciple, but Ji Fengyun never accepted Chu Wushuang as a disciple, and now it seems that Ji Fengyun is a little dissatisfied with Chu Wushuang.

Su Yi also had a full view of Ji Fengyun's performance, although he felt that Chu Wushuang was a little scheming, but scheming could not hide the fact that Chu Wushuang was very good.

Looking at Ji Fengyun's performance now, he obviously felt that there was something wrong with Chu Wushuang, and such a discovery couldn't help but make him feel a little puzzled.

Ji Fengyun didn't answer, but changed the topic and said, "Although our Xizhou monks cultivate the Immortal Dao, many monks leave Xizhou after cultivating to the Immortal Secret Realm, so no one knows if the legendary immortal really exists. ”

"Doesn't it mean that cultivating the Immortal Dao can transcend life and death and become a real immortal?" Shen Rouxue couldn't help but feel a little conflicted.

"That's just the statement in the Book of Heaven, and the Immortal Dao is indeed theoretically capable of transcending life and death, but I haven't reached that realm. Ji Fengyun shook his head, and quickly said: "Having said so much, it's time to get to the point, it's about the Book of Heaven, and you must not mention it to outsiders." ”
