Chapter 16 [Forty-Nine Xuangong]

"Forty-nine Xuangong?"

All Mu Haotian's thoughts, all his eyes, and all his hopes were all gathered in this thin book in front of him.

The cultivation of Taoism is the desire of his heart to sprout a little, longed for many years, and has been firm and undoubted until today.

In addition, because of the historical origin of the Xuanwu Extreme Mountain of the Master's Sect and such "amazing names", the so-called "Demon Slaying Dragon Sword Sword" and "Eight Directions Gods and Ghosts Listen to the Edict", he didn't even look at it, so he threw it aside.

I can't wait, facing the warming sun, and devote myself to studying this book.

The material of the book is not paper or cloth, and it is full of fine lines to the touch, and tiny pores are faintly visible, as if it were made of some kind of thin and tough animal skin. Although it looks old, the corners are very smooth after years of flipping, but fortunately, all the pages are intact.

Mu Haotian first flipped through it at random, and found that the cover was blank and nameless, and the content of the text was obscure, such as the Book of Viewing Heaven, and a few pages at the end of the book were torn off for some reason, leaving only a trace of adhesion that was difficult to see.

Ma Sifang once said that this exercise is called "Four Nine Xuangong".

The name sounded familiar at first, but he couldn't remember it after searching in his mind for a long time, so he put it behind him and prepared to start understanding and reciting it.

"It is said that all the famous sects, when they pass on the exercises, they burn the exercises on the "jade slips", check the memory at any time, or apply special teaching spells, and directly imprint the content of the exercises on people's hearts. In this way, the disciples do not have to spend time and effort on rote memorization...... This "Forty-Nine Xuangong" secret book is purely handwritten, quite ancient, it seems that the grade will not be too high......

The faint loss in Mu Haotian's heart completely disappeared the moment he opened the first page of the book!

Instead, there was a nervous and exuberant desire to discover a secret treasure alone, and his heart beat faster and faster as he continued to scroll down.

Later, the great ecstasy in his heart swept over like a tidal wave, almost stopping him from breathing.

On the first page of the book, Long Feifeng Wu wrote two lines of eight big characters:

"Thunder in the clouds!"

"The ...... of the Moon God"

The origin of the name of Kyushu and the proverb that has been passed down for thousands of years are concise and catchy, and even ordinary children can recite it casually, and Mu Haotian is also familiar with it.

Not long ago, he had heard the "voice of his heart" read it again.

At that moment, at this moment.

A heavy sense of fate fell gently on his heart.

"But why is it written on the first page of the Daomen Xuangong Secret Book?"

These two lines of writing are flying and powerful, but there is a deep confusion after a deep exploration, and the almost never-ending despair that follows.

Mu Haotian's strange feelings come from the end of two lines:

The first line "thunder in the clouds" is drawn at the end of the exclamation"! ”。

The second line is "the moon god is secluded", but at the end there is a row omitting "......".

All the writer's perception of this proverb seems to be condensed in the ending symbol of the two lines, which is unforgettable and superb.

Mu Haotian hurriedly concentrated and quickly turned the first page. Those two lines were like a mysterious and bottomless abyss, and he was afraid that if he looked at it a few more times, he would involuntarily sink into the writer's state of mind.

The second page contains a dozen small characters, clumsy and neat, very different from the style of the first page, obviously from the handwriting of different people.

Becoming an immortal is the ultimate dream of the world.

But!

What is Immortal?

In the land of Kyushu, there were clouds in ancient times:

The apes parted, the gods passed on, and civilization began.

The fairy mountain stands, the snow melts slowly, and the wind flows a few leaves of the boat.

On the beach to hit the water, thousands of silver flowers bloom, deceiving endless believers to compete and swim.

The wind rises at the end of the green apples, and it is held in the mouth of the soil bag, accompanied by showers, and the anger is surging, the thunder is smashing the stones, and the earth is swept by the sound! Soaring thousands of miles.

One finger asked the sky: "How did you become an immortal?" ”

But with the combined strength of wind and thunder, he killed Lin Mang's widows.

Eight thousand years of the river flowed eastward, the clouds and mist were surging, and thousands of waters gathered, and the people were gone.

At the meeting place, he cried and said: "Where is love? ”

The ancient will that comes to the face is like a magnificent and tragic epic, showing the peerless demeanor of the former Xuangong masters to the fullest.

Mu Haotian unconsciously read it over and over again, but he didn't understand the deep meaning.

I felt an endless sense of desolation coming out of the words, as if I was in the empty grassland land in an instant, and I was looking at the mountains that seemed to be within reach, but could not actually be reached by a good horse.

……

Mu Haotian came back to his senses for a long time, and after reading two pages, he couldn't help but feel a lot of confusion in his heart:

"Why does this Taoist Xuangong actually let the cultivator experience a state of mind such as desolation, confusion, and even despair before starting to cultivate? The words on the second page seem to describe the path to immortality, and it seems to be the feeling of exploring some terrible truth, or rather...... Are the two inherent?"

He shook his head vigorously to get rid of distracting thoughts, and no longer bothered himself, after all, for him, being able to step into the path of cultivating immortals was a big surprise no matter what!

From the third page onwards, it is the main text of "Forty-Nine Xuangong".

Mu Haotian flipped through it carefully, but saw that there were dozens of pages in the text of this exercise, and the handwriting should be a facsimile. Between the lines, some crooked annotations were marked by later generations, some of which seemed to be felt in practice, and some of which were like spell grammars that were written down casually. The font is thin and thin, slightly different from the words he has known since childhood, but it is generally no obstacle to reading.

He calmed down and watched for two hours, whether it was the content of the exercises or the spells on the margin, he kept them in mind as much as possible, and at the same time figured out the cultivation realm of this Xuangong.

"Forty-nine Xuangong" entered the country with a total of five turns and forty-nine times.

The first to fourth turns are divided into ten layers each, while the fifth turn is only nine.

This volume only records the content of the first four turns, which are the first turn "Qi Sea Lotus", the second turn "Melting Dao Condensation", the third turn "Wandering God Refining Void", and the fourth turn "Passing Mystery and Becoming True".

Those pages that were torn off were the fifth turn of "Freedom and Happiness".

From the naming of each turn and the annotations in the text, it can be roughly judged that except for the fourth turn "Tong Xuan Becoming True", which corresponds to the "Xuan Ling Period" of the seventh realm of the Dao Gate, the first three turns all contain two Dao realms.

The world's well-known Eight Realms of Daomen:

Qi storage, foundation building, breaking fan, Jindan, Yuanying, merger, Xuanling, Mahayana.

This booklet "Four Nine Xuangong" actually records all the cultivation exercises from the Qi Storage Period to the Xuanling Period! Not to mention the missing volume of the fifth turn corresponding to the "Mahayana of the Dao Law" - Freedom and Wishfulness.

In this way, the entire Xuan Gong is actually the road to cultivating immortals!

With this alone, it has been concluded that this exercise must come from a top famous family, how can this not make Mu Haotian feel ecstatic in his heart?

It is necessary to know that Kyushu is huge, caves and blessed lands abound, and there are countless dangerous mountains and Jedi, even if the so-called immortals who fly to the sky and move mountains and reclaim the sea in the eyes of ordinary people, they dare not say that they have traveled all over the world.

Outside of the vast territory of Kyushu, there are many inaccessible places in an area no less than this, and there are many remnant factions that have established mountains and established religions or foreign strangers who live in seclusion.

There are many sects of cultivation in the world, each with its own amazing art.

However, due to the "great changes in heaven and earth" and "the end of the Dharma era", the exercises of the vast majority of sects in the world at that time can make people cultivate to the merger period and the Xuanling period.

Mu Haotian has been yearning for cultivation since he was a child, and he has tried his best to understand relevant knowledge, but he is confined to the teacher's class, and he is only familiar with some common sense, and his vision is not very high.

At this moment, I just want to understand the transcendence of this exercise, my mind is excited, I am ecstatic, and I want to look up to the sky and smile!

But he never thought that in the cultivation world where the weak eat the strong and the danger is everywhere, what kind of calamity would be brought to him by possessing and practicing such peerless exercises?

Or perhaps, even if he knew this, how could he be half timid and hesitant because of the difficulties and dangers of a young man, as fearless, frivolous, and radiant?
