These "four side gates" are exactly the "Taoism" that Bodhi Patriarch said to Brother Monkey in the original book to teach Brother Monkey.

However, in the library building, there are all these Taoist methods, and they are written in volumes.

It's just that the volumes in the library are too profound. In the Samsung Cave, most of them are incarnates of spirits, of course, most of them are incomprehensible. Even if you can understand it, you often don't have the heart to learn on your own.

In fact, Patriarch Bodhi's daily sermons are mainly about the content of these four side doors, and occasionally insert some advanced Taoism, but he doesn't go too deep.

But one thing to say, the four side doors are not as bad as Brother Monkey imagined. In fact, although you can't get "immortality" by studying the content of the four side gates, if you go to the depths, there is no problem in prolonging life.

Or if the ability is sufficient, it is also very simple to go to the Heavenly Palace to serve as a priest with the skills learned in these four side gates in the future.

You know, once you hold the priesthood, you will receive the divine certificate, and your name will be crossed out of the book of life and death. To some extent, it can be regarded as "immortality".

But the "immortality" here is different from the "immortality" that Bodhi Patriarch said to Brother Monkey.

When Jiang Chen saw this, he finally understood why Brother Monkey was caught in the underworld in Journey to the West.

The "eternal life" mentioned by the Bodhi Patriarch is to cultivate the avenue, enjoy eternal life, and be at ease. It is not affected by the catastrophe and will not be destroyed in the catastrophe.

And this kind of immortality is in conflict with the immortality of the heavenly court.

It can be understood that there are two lifespans in "Journey to the West". One is the lifespan automatically generated by Heavenly Court according to the Book of Life and Death, which is controlled by Heavenly Court. The other is the "Calamity".

There are many kinds of calamities, including the three calamities of cultivation, the calamities of luck, and the terrifying calamities of the calamity and the final calamity of the "immeasurable calamity" that destroys the heavens and the earth, and even saints have the possibility of falling.

The method of immortality taught by Patriarch Bodhi to Sun Wukong is the Xuanmen Avenue. It is used to avoid calamity, but the life span in the book of life and death is not in this way of eternal life.

As for why......

It's because, compared to those calamities, the lifespan limit of the Book of Life and Death is simply not worth mentioning.

Although the Book of Life and Death includes the living beings in the Three Realms. But in fact, it is under the control of the underworld and the heavenly court. Feel free to change it at any time if you want. Therefore, the gods of the heavenly court were able to obtain what seemed to be an "immortal" lifespan.

If you can't get it, you can even live for millions of years or tens of millions of years.

Of course, it is not difficult to ignore the book of life and death. As long as you cultivate to reach the realm of earth immortals, you will be able to accommodate one or two. No matter how bad it is, you can avoid the ghost chaplain who is being pursued.

Or should I say...... Anyone who has cultivated to a certain level of immortality. The ghost is almost there, where do you dare to catch it in the underworld? Especially when Brother Monkey has reached the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal, if it is an ordinary sensible immortal, as long as he shows his breath, the other party will not dare to offend. Even if you go to the underworld, it is estimated that you will have to drink with the Ten Palaces of the Yama Mansion or something.

Brother Monkey can be arrested, there are only two reasons, one is that someone has made a wave of yin in order to promote the plot, or the ghosts in the underworld have not seen Brother Monkey's cultivation, plus Brother Monkey was drunk and did not resist, so he was directly pulled down. Or it is possible to have both reasons.

And when he arrived in the underworld, Brother Monkey showed his strength, and the ghost and the judge immediately admitted their mistakes. But in the end, Brother Monkey was a violent temper, and he still made a big fuss. The monkeys' lifespans have been wiped out.

But......

Brother Monkey's move is actually a bit excessive.

In particular, the destruction of the life and death books of the Huaguoshan monkeys should not be. Because the destruction of the book of life and death does not mean that you will not die.

The role of the Book of Life and Death, just like the list of gods in "The Romance of the Gods", can lead souls or true spirits into the underworld. If you don't have a book of life and death, unless your strength is excellent, otherwise you will be scattered!

After making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, Brother Monkey was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain, and Huaguo Mountain was also burned down by a fire in the Heavenly Palace, and the luck of the Monkey Clan was destroyed, and almost more than half of the monkeys died.

And in those five hundred years, there was no luck to protect them, and the hunters of the Aolai Kingdom also entered Huaguo Mountain to hunt.

When Brother Monkey went back, there were only a few thousand lonely monkeys left, and there were few of the old group of monkeys left, only Marshal Ma Liu and General Bangba were there. At that time, of course, Brother Monkey was also furious, and directly killed all the hunters.

The monkeys' books of life and death were erased, but they were still dead. This is the "calamity" that has befallen them. Moreover, without the Book of Life and Death, the soul will not enter the underworld, and can only wander in the Three Realms, and finally dissipate between heaven and earth!

This is the difference between catastrophe and lifespan in Journey to the West.

And Jiang Chen finally knew that the increase in longevity of the original "Tianchen Change" was much more terrifying than he imagined! This increase in longevity did not mean the increase in longevity in the book of life and death, but was able to postpone the day of his destined catastrophe! For example, the "Three Calamities" calamity among cultivators could only be postponed by 500 years by ordinary people, but now Jiang Chen can postpone it by 100,000 years by virtue of the Tianchen Change!

Another example is the quantitative tribulation, sometimes it may not be your choice to enter the quantitative tribulation. For example, the twelve golden immortals in the Romance of the Gods are "destined to kill and rob", and they have to enter the quantitative tribulation to find a glimmer of life. Otherwise, they would have been hiding long ago......

However, with the change of heaven. If Jiang Chen commits a murderous robbery, as long as he does not enter the tribulation himself, he can postpone the killing and robbery for as long as 100,000 years! This can be said to be incomparably precious to Jiang Chen.

It seems that Tianchen is not as simple as he thinks......

Although it is impossible to avoid calamity like the "seventy-two changes" taught by Patriarch Bodhi. But here to prolong life, it is also very strong to be able to postpone the catastrophe.

It's no wonder that Jiang Chen was still thinking about it before, when Tianchen became sixteen, the introduction was "cultivation can be achieved in 10,000 years, and life expectancy will be increased after successful cultivation". Isn't this going to be a death before the cultivation is successful......

But it turns out that the "longevity" of increasing longevity is not only the life span on the god list. And the rest of the features are also very powerful.

After communicating this, Jiang Chen of course no longer underestimated the four side doors. Because, these are all real things! Maybe the knowledge contained in them can really make one's cultivation to an extremely powerful realm!

Jiang Chen first read it carefully, and then communicated with the Wanjie chat group:

"Wanjie Chat Group, help me scan all the books in the library and exchange the books for points!"

There are so many books of knowledge in this library. If you read them one by one, Jiang Chen didn't know when he was going to see them. However, with the Wanjie chat group, you can greatly reduce the time. At the same time, cheats can also be exchanged for a large number of points!
