Now, after Ao Qing learned about the "Four Realms" on the road of cultivation, he yearned for it, and said to the patriarch: "I hope that the master will teach the method of cultivation, and the disciple will inherit the mantle of the master. ”

"Three Star Cave?"

Patriarch Bodhi smiled with a smile in his eyes: "Isn't it to carry forward the dragon clan?" ”

"Master, I'm ......"

"Alright."

The patriarch waved his hand and said, "Being a teacher is not to teach you to abandon the dragon clan. What you did under the Bodhi tree, the teacher also saw. The so-called going with the flow, you have great ambitions, and that is also caused by fate. But we must remember to be free and easy under the Bodhi tree, and remember the truth that everything should not be forced. If one day, you lose your original intention, even if the teacher does not clear the door, he will expel you from the court, so as not to destroy my Dao. ”

Ao Qing sat down and said respectfully: "Disciple remember. ”

"Good."

The patriarch nodded with satisfaction and said, "In the world's cultivation method, there is a path to cultivation and a way to seek immortals. Cultivation is for cultivating the mind, and seeking immortals is for seeking art. Now that you have attained Bodhi in your mind, you can be regarded as stepping into the 'path of cultivation', and the realm of this 'mind' is difficult to explain clearly for a while. Therefore, the next teacher will start to teach you from the aspect of 'seeking immortals', that is, 'art'. ”

Ao Qing was overjoyed. Although he realized Bodhi, he also knew that this "cultivation" was very important. However, this does not mean that "seeking immortals" is not important.

Especially before the "Dao" is cultivated, it is inevitable to use "art" to protect the Dao and prevent demons and demons from obstructing and disturbing it.

For Ao Qing, he is also very yearning for "art". Who doesn't want to be able to change freely and ride the clouds. Watching the blue sky and climbing the day, facing the North Sea and twilight?

Ao Qing said: "I don't know what kind of spell Master wants to teach?" ”

Ao Qing remembered that in "Journey to the West", Patriarch Bodhi integrated the three religions, whether it was Buddha, Taoism, or Confucianism.

In addition, the patriarch is also familiar with the four fruit side doors of "magic flow and quietness". Although Sun Wukong is dismissive of these side doors, he also has "side doors".

The way of the technique, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil;

The way of the flow door, the saint descends to the truth;

The way of the quiet door is to be closed and settled;

The way to move the door is to pick the yin and supplement the yang.

And the "Great Immortal Formula" taught by the patriarch to Sun Wukong is the supreme cultivation method of the integration of the three religions. The sentence "Gather the five elements upside down, and become a Buddha and an immortal after the work is completed." It can be said that the power of this method is fully revealed.

Of course, Ao Qing was also curious whether the patriarch would teach him the Heavenly Immortal Formula.

But in reality, this is not the case.

The Bodhi Patriarch looked at Ao Qing and said, "If you are an ordinary person, I have three hundred and sixty side doors, and seventy-two left paths can be taught. If you are gifted, I should teach him the path of cultivation of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. If he has an outstanding understanding and a natural Taoist heart, I should teach him the secret secret of enlightenment and enlightenment, so that he can inherit my true teachings. But you are different, you are a dragon, and as a teacher, I feel that although you can learn my Dafa, you should also carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, and have some things of your own. ”

After the patriarch finished speaking, he gently waved the dust whisk in his hand.

I saw that in the void, a light changed, and a blank piece of paper suddenly appeared.

"What is this?"

Ao Qing was slightly stunned.

Patriarch Bodhi said, "Disciple, do you see this thing as familiar? ”

Ao Qing said: "This is a thing that the disciple gave to mortals when he was bored, and it was called 'paper'. ”

Yes, this is exactly "paper".

When Ao Qing was ignorant, he was bored, and he once sheltered the people of the coastal countries and taught them some skills such as papermaking.

Unexpectedly, Patriarch Bodhi actually knew?

Of course. This Bodhi Patriarch's "paper", I don't know what material it is made of, is delicate and abnormal, and it is absolutely extraordinary. I'm afraid it's mana generation. It's much more subtle than ordinary paper.

At this time, he took out this paper, but it was not just to praise Ao Qing, but it had other meanings!

Patriarch Bodhi said, "You little dragon, you are quite benevolent and ingenious, and you can make such interesting things out of tree bark, hemp and cloth. It can also be seen that the way of heaven is magical, and the reason of gods and things is natural. I will use this 'paper' to lead you to understand the method of cultivation. ”

The patriarch finished speaking, but saw him gently waving the dust, and lines suddenly appeared on the white paper.

As the lines change, a picture gradually emerges on the paper. Ao Qing looked carefully, but it was a divine dragon, standing proudly above the sky, overlooking all living beings.

The dragon is incomparably huge, its horns are like a deer, its head is like a camel, its eyes are like a rabbit, its neck is like a snake, its belly is like a mirage, its scales are like a fish, its claws are like an eagle, its palms are like a tiger, and its ears are like a cow.

Next to the dragon's mouth, there is a suran; Under the chin, there is a pearl that shines. The throat is inverted and bright, and the color is bright. Lifelike and realistic.

The most striking thing is his eyes.

In the pupils of those eyes, a piece of heaven and earth is reflected. It seems that the whole world has been taken into his eyes.

If you look at this dragon alone, maybe it's nothing. But after adding these eyes, it suddenly made Ao Qing feel a sense of insignificance being looked down upon. It's as if the whole world is insignificant to this dragon!

With just one glance, Ao Qing touched his heart.

His thoughts seemed to be drawn into the scroll, and faintly, the Bodhi Zi seemed to glow, immersing Ao Qing's consciousness in the distant past.

It seems that there is a divine dragon that looks in all directions and rises to the sky. Its body is huge, and it has vast magical powers, and it can cause a sensation in the Three Realms at every turn!

It turns out that my dragon clan has such a powerful ability! And this skill seems to be just a half-claw of this divine dragon.

How does this dragon exist?

Ao Qing couldn't help but feel excited.

"In vain."

Patriarch Bodhi spoke softly, bringing Ao Qing's gaze back to reality: "This dragon is the portrait of the ancestor of your dragon clan. ”

The ancestor of the dragon family!

Ao Qing suddenly realized.

No wonder this divine dragon is so powerful. Just through the picture scroll, he felt a sense of insignificance in the world.

The so-called ancestor of the dragon family. It's not Ying Long, it's not Candle Dragon. It is the Emperor Longzu in "The First Tribulation of the Dragon and Han".

The first tribulation of the Longhan Dynasty is the first tribulation of the five tribulations of Taoism, and one of the names of the first Tianzun of the Yuan.

"Daozang" records that the first year of the Longhan Dynasty was the ancestral robbery. The dragon takes its change, the Han takes its greatness, and there is the Dragon Ancestor Emperor at the beginning of the robbery.

Long Zu didn't come from the sea in the first place. It's from the galaxy.

As for Ying Long, although he is also very powerful, he is not very ancient.

Even from Ao Qing's era, it is not far away.

Before Ying Long, there were countless divine dragons.

Among them, the age of the five emperor dragon kings, the sea true dragon kings and other divine dragons is far before the big years, much older than Ying Long.

But.

Compared with these, Ao Qing was even more puzzled, why did Bodhi Patriarch paint a portrait of Longzu to show himself?

Could it be ......!
