Chapter 16 Immortals are mortals

The aura of Wan Tao Peak is getting stronger and stronger, and even ordinary people here will feel the extraordinaryness of this place.

The patriarch told Xue Tianqing that now is the time when the aura is at its heaviest, because there are no immortal peaches to nourish, so this is the best time to cultivate.

The patriarch instructed Xue Tianqing that the aura from the outside world can be borrowed temporarily, but it cannot be relied on for a long time, and its own strength is fundamental.

She also told Xue Tianqing that Taoist cultivation is not only self-cultivation, but also mental cultivation, if there is no heart for all sentient beings, no matter how good the cultivation is, it will be empty in the end.

In the blink of an eye, it has been half a year, and the spell of Xue Tianqing has improved so fast that even the Bodhi Patriarch is stunned.

Not only is this the case with spells, but his Monkey King Mixed Yuan Skill is also more proficient. It's just that the more skilled she is, the more Xue Tianqing feels that something is missing from it.

On this day, Xue Tianqing was sitting under the peach blossom tree, but he saw Patriarch Bodhi coming from the clouds.

"Master, today is not the end of the month, why are you here?"

Patriarch Bodhi smiled: "What? Do you still have time to see you as a teacher? ”

Xue Tianqing stretched out his hand and turned a large stone into a chair: "How can it be, you come here every day." ”

Patriarch Bodhi sat down and said, "Flamboyant, I don't look like a cultivator at all, and then." ”

As soon as he spoke, he raised his hand, and an iron rod that was long in the wind flew over, which was Dinghaishen needle iron.

"I originally wanted to hand over the Divine Iron to you in a few more years, but since you have obtained the Monkey King Mixed Yuan Gong, it is better to let you unite with his men and soldiers earlier."

Xue Tianqing took the divine iron in his hand: "What is the unity of man and soldier?" ”

"Dissolve the Divine Iron in your own body, and then you will be the Divine Iron, and the Divine Iron will be you, only then can you retract and release it freely, so that the Divine Iron can exert its full power."

Seeing Xue Tianqing nodded, the patriarch said again: "The integration of man and soldier is easier said than done, if a cultivator can completely integrate a weapon into his body, it is a great blessing, so don't be greedy." ”

The patriarch's words made Xue Tianqing's heart move, and she wanted to tell the matter of the dragon sword, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed it back.

Seeing that the patriarch was leaving, Xue Tianqing stretched out her hand to stop her and said, "Master, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Although the Monkey King Mixed Yuan Gong is a good exercise, I always feel that it seems to be missing something."

The patriarch chuckled, "Then what do you think it's missing?" ”

"Soul, although the current exercises seem to be impeccable, they are actually no different from the walking dead. Just like people, the soul is not there, only the body remains, no matter how powerful it is, it is still a dead thing. ”

The patriarch nodded and said, "You are so good at cultivating, when the time comes, the soul of the exercises will come by itself." ”

Seeing Xue Tianqing nodded, the patriarch said again: "Wukong, the fairy world is no different from Hongchen, if you go alone in the future, you must know how to be restrained, and you must not show off in front of others." ”

Xue Tianqing knelt down and said, "Thank you Master for your teachings." ”

Patriarch Bodhi pulled up Xue Tianqing: "Get up, you have to remember that the human heart is unpredictable, this human heart is not just the heart of a mortal, but all people, including the immortals of the heavenly court. ”

Xue Tianqing frowned and said: "Didn't you say that if you log in to the immortal register, you will abandon your seven emotions and six desires, and you will no longer have a utilitarian heart?" ”

The patriarch tapped Xue Tianqing's forehead with his finger: "If this is the case, why doesn't the Jade Emperor give up the throne to others?" If there are no seven emotions and six desires, why should people in the world go to Sendai desperately and hope for immortality? ”

"It's said that people are human, even birds and animals have their own feelings. The crow feeds back, and the lamb kneels to the milk, isn't it a manifestation of love? If the creatures in the world really don't have the seven emotions and six desires, how is it different from the walking dead? ”

When Patriarch Bodhi said this, his finger kept pointing at Xue Tianqing's forehead: "Wukong, when you are fully enlightened, you will know everything." ”

After finishing speaking, a flash of light suddenly came out of the patriarch's fingers, which went straight into Xue Tianqing's mind.

When the patriarch's fingers left, Xue Tianqing raised his head suddenly: "Master, this is our heaven and earth?" ”

Patriarch Bodhi nodded: "All the Three Realms are here, and in the future, your spells will be completed, and wherever you want to go is in one thought." ”

Xue Tianqing was both surprised and puzzled, and what surprised her was that the master engraved the whole picture of the world in her mind at a moment's notice.

I wonder that this world is completely different from what I think, because it is like a picture that spreads out, and it is extremely flat.

I saw the vast earth stretch forward, until it reached a high wall of mist, and the high wall was like a sharp sword reaching into the sky, and I didn't know where it led.

On the land, rivers and mountains are dotted, and there are oceans and seas surrounding several continents.

After a long time, Xue Tianqing spoke: "Master, what is behind the high wall?" ”

Patriarch Bodhi shook his head and said, "I don't know, the world is in the clouds and mist today. Everyone in the world says that the clouds and mist are the edge of the sky, and there is nothing outside. From ancient times to the present, how many sages have gone deep into it to explore the truth of the world, but none of them have been able to come back, whether it is a human or a god, including my master, your ancestor. ”

Xue Tianqing was surprised when she heard this: "I still have a master?" Didn't you say you were born a saint? ”

"Your master is the real saint, who came to the world since the beginning of Hongmeng, and finally never came back to explore the world."

Xue Tianqing scratched her head: "Master, you mourn." ”

Patriarch Bodhi grabbed Xue Tianqing's big ears: "Master has not passed away, what do I have to be sad about!" ”

"It's not like you can't come back."

"I mean I didn't come back, not that I won't come back!"

Xue Tianqing glanced at Patriarch Bodhi: "Master, I can be sure that you are your daughter." ”

Seeing that the patriarch looked at him and didn't speak, Xue Tianqing continued: "Your manners and careful eyes show that you are your daughter!" ”

When Xue Tianqing fell headfirst on the top of Wantao Peak, the voice of the Bodhi Patriarch came: "Since I said that I am careful, I will show you in the future." With that, he vanished.

As the immortal peach grows up, the aura of Wan Tao Peak is much less, and Xue Tianqing at this time no longer cultivates every day, but begins to walk on Wan Tao Peak.

When Patriarch Bodhi came to Wantao Peak again, he did not see a figure under the tree where he was meditating on a snowy day.

It wasn't until half an hour later that I saw a snowy day covered with fallen leaves under a peach tree on the mountainside.

At this time, the snow was clear, staring at a fairy peach, not moving.

Patriarch Bodhi did not step forward to disturb, but looked at Xue Tianqing with his hands behind his back and nodded.

Three days later, Xue Tianqing was still standing there, not even changing his posture.

Patriarch Bodhi pondered for a moment, then pointed to the void, and a transparent cover protected the snow and peach trees in it.

After doing all this, Patriarch Bodhi's figure flickered, and the next moment he appeared on the Hating Heaven Peak: "Brother Dao, can you come out and see it." ”

After a long time, the former voice sounded again: "If you have something to say, you will be spared from seeing each other." ”

Patriarch Bodhi chuckled and said, "You saved the life of the apprentice, I always have to say thank you in person." ”

In a moment, Long Haichuan appeared in front of the Bodhi Patriarch out of thin air: "Thank you, I just think this kid is quite angry with me, so I left him behind, and gave me a few tricks by the way." ”

Patriarch Bodhi looked at Long Haichuan and smiled: "What your senior brother did is not authentic, since you taught him the Divine Dragon Technique, why only pass on its form and not its spirit?" He still called you a senior brother. ”

Long Haichuan snorted: "You keep the Taiyi innate recipe and don't teach it, but you beat my idea of the Divine Dragon Recipe, and your master can do it enough." ”

Patriarch Bodhi sighed lightly: "If you are greedy and chew too much, you must always come step by step, and now he has exceeded my expectations." ”

Long Haichuan pondered for a while: "Are you sure that you are looking for someone who is so attentive to him?" ”

The patriarch first nodded, then shook his head: "Yes and no, he is a variable." ”

Long Haichuan handed a booklet to Patriarch Bodhi: "I've waited for so many years, I don't care about waiting for another hundred and ten years, take it." However, this kid is a little unruly, so he has to be trained well. ”

Taking the booklet in his hand, the patriarch smiled: "Don't wait for me to ask you?" ”

"With this kung fu, let's think about how to resolve the domineering of the Divine Dragon Jue. Your Dao method and the Divine Dragon Recipe are one supreme softness and the other supreme strength, I don't believe that kid can cultivate at the same time. ”

Patriarch Bodhi raised his hand and said, "Thank you Brother Dao for your success, there will never be a fourth person who knows the Divine Dragon Formula." As for how to cultivate, it depends on his ability. ”

Long Haichuan nodded and said, "How is the trip to Heavenly Court?" ”

Patriarch Bodhi chuckled and said, "Very good. ”

Long Haichuan sighed: "Everyone in the world thinks that immortals are at ease, who would have thought that immortals are also mortals, the same deceit, the same competition for fame and profit, and the same mutual tilting." If I can get what I wish this time, I am willing to turn away from my cultivation and reincarnate forever like a mortal. ”

Patriarch Bodhi smiled bitterly and said: "Heaven and earth are not benevolent and all things are used as dogs, and if heaven and earth are still like this, what can my generation do?" If you want to truly transcend, I am afraid that only by breaking through the barriers of the Three Realms can you see Mingyue's true heart, otherwise you will not be a chess piece in this heaven and earth. ”

Long Haichuan smiled: "It's been a long time since I've seen you so sad, and it's been a long time since I've seen you show your true face." But you'd better change back to your old self, I always feel that your precious apprentice is not in his heart. ”

Patriarch Bodhi said lightly: "Do you just abandon your seven emotions and six desires?" ”

Long Haichuan shook his head and said, "If you really don't have the seven emotions and six desires, what else do you need to cultivate, what do you need for immortality?" Wouldn't it be better to turn into a stubborn rock and be beaten by the waves for eternity? I'm just afraid you won't be able to control yourself. ”

The patriarch snorted lightly: "The first time you thought about me, you can be called punishable!" Is there such an arrangement of our master and apprentice? ”

Seeing that Long Haichuan was no longer silent, Patriarch Bodhi said goodbye, and appeared outside the small courtyard on a sunny day in a blink of an eye.

From the outside, there is nothing abnormal in the small courtyard, it is still the original few trees, it is still the original small flower bed, and it is still deserted.

But when Patriarch Bodhi stepped into the courtyard gate, the scene in the courtyard changed.

In front of the main room, on the futon, a man in green was sitting cross-legged.

And the big tree that was originally brought here by Qingyue and planted in the corner of the yard is gone.

Although the man is not good-looking, he has a smart air that gives people an ethereal feeling.

Seeing the patriarch enter the door, the man got up and said, "Liu Qing see the patriarch." ”

Patriarch Bodhi looked at Liu Qing for a while, and then nodded: "Yes, it is really the heart of a child, you have a good life and cultivation here, and when you complete the things explained by the poor Dao, you will definitely return the Dao Fruit of your life." ”

Liu Qing raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Patriarch." ”

Leaving the small courtyard on a sunny day, Patriarch Bodhi returned to the main hall and instructed the Taoist on the side: "Chuan Zhiyuan will come and see you." ”
