032, I Am a Tree (II)
The tiger baby was amused by Taiyi's appearance, and asked again, "Do you understand now?"
Taiyi frowned and blinked, "Are you Jian yƬ and I am looking for a girl in the Shenmu clan to marry?"
Huwa cried and laughed: "I don't mean that, what can be done may not necessarily need to be done, it just depends on whether you are willing or not." ā
Taiyi got up and knelt down in front of the tiger baby and said, "Actually, I already understand, this is what you said earlier about rebirth, which is the dilemma in my cultivation. How to take this step, and what happens after taking this step, I have already understood at this moment. ā
Taiyi's experience is much richer than that of Huwa, but he has always been a curious child, staring at everything in the world with wide eyes. In fact, his problem is very simple, that is, he always unconsciously looks at the problem from the perspective of a tree, so in the eyes of others, this child seems to be too stupid, because others do not think like a tree. There's nothing wrong with that, because he's just a tree. However, after reaching the consummation of the Seven Realms and Nine Transformations, he was trapped in the limits of his original body.
Huwa hurriedly stretched out his hand to support and said, "Why do you want to make this great gift again!" In fact, Taiyi's question is also very inspiring to Huwa, because Huwa is a person, and after reaching the consummation of the Seven Realms and Nine Transformations, she will also encounter such troubles, but the form of the expression is different.
Taiyi replied: "You can be my teacher, how can you not worship the fate of ignition?...... Actually, although I have already learned about it, I still have a small question for you. The people I have met in the past 800 years, no matter how high or low they are in cultivation, how old or young, I am afraid that only you can answer. ā
Tiger Baby: "Oh, what is such a mysterious little question?"
Taiyi: "May I ask if the elixir of immortality is an immortal? Can the elixir of immortality also be able to practice spiritually? If so, wouldn't the essence of its plants and trees have been verified for immortality as soon as it appears?"
In the divine thoughts accompanying his voice, he also introduced the various legends he had heard about the elixir of immortality. Only then did Huwa know that there were five kinds of legendary immortal elixirs, in addition to Langyu, Five-Colored Divine Lotus, and Lizhu, there were two other ones - Yuqi and Fuchang.
And this problem of Taiyi. It's really only the tiger baby who can answer, and now there is probably no one in the world who knows more about the elixir of immortality than him. The tiger baby blinked her eyes and thought for a long time, and then she muttered: "I have seen two kinds of legendary immortal elixirs, namely the Langji Fruit and the Five-Colored Divine Lotus, which have not only been eaten, but also refined into artifacts that can blend with the form and god.
The so-called immortality of the immortal elixir refers to the infinite vitality and longevity of its vitality in a suitable environment, but it is not that you can verify immortality after eating it, otherwise you and I will become immortals. I've seen the queen of the kingdom who has taken the Elizhu elixir. He passed away four years after taking Lizhu. ā
Taiyi: "I'm not trying to ask what happens to people when they take the elixir of immortality, but what kind of existence the elixir of immortality itself is, and whether they have verified their immortality?"
This question is too difficult, and Huwa thought about it for a long time before she spoke: "I don't dare to think that my current answer is right." But your question reminds me of many other questions: Heaven and earth last forever, so do heaven and earth also verify immortality? A gust of wind between heaven and earth, or a drop of water in the sea, can also be there for millions of years, turning clouds into rain and reincarnation without extinguishing, so do wind and water verify immortality?
If an artifact is not damaged, its texture is immortal. So the artifacts prove immortality? Of course not, because they are not living beings. The elixir of immortality appears in the form of living beings, and it can have an infinite lifespan, and taking it can also help in cultivation. In my opinion. They are the manifestation of some law in heaven and earth.
The elixir of immortality is not immortal, if it leaves the suitable growth environment, it will dissolve and disappear, and it will not even leave withered relics like other plants and trees in the world. So I think they're part of the law of immortality between heaven and earth. And if you are not an immortal yourself, I am afraid that you will not be able to practice spiritually. ā
Taiyi pouted: "I want to interject, what if." It's just a hypothesis, what if a certain immortal elixir can channelize and cultivate the essence of plants and trees like me?"
The tiger baby asked rhetorically: "If this is the case, if I remove the immortal elixir from the environment suitable for its growth, then its original body will dissolve and disappear, what will happen to the essence of plants and trees?"
Taiyi: "Then of course it's gone!For example, if my original body withers and dies, I will also be gone, unless I ......"
Tiger Baby: "Unless what? ā
Taiyi: "Unless it cultivates step by step, after reaching the consummation of the Seven Realms and Nine Transformations, it must also transcend the limits of the original body race, and then step through the path of the Eight Realms and Nine Turns and the seventy-two steps to heaven to verify immortality, and become an immortal family with the original body of the elixir of immortality." ā
Tiger Baby: "Don't you understand, why do you still ask me?"
Taiyi: "I don't understand if I don't ask, I understand this question!" But I still want to ask, what is the elixir of immortality?"
He is really a child, the question was asked around and turned back, and the tiger baby had no temper with this child, so she only sighed and said: "I have just said that they are the manifestation of some kind of immortal law between heaven and earth, so they can have an infinite lifespan and can help cultivation." I don't know about the other immortal elixirs, but I know Lang Yu and the five-colored divine lotus very well. Taihao and Emperor Shennong must have also thought about the question you raised, and the answer they came up with was the Jinghua Jue and the Great Instrument Jue. ā
Langji can refine the vitality between heaven and earth, condensed into Langji fruit, and Emperor Taihao realized the essence of Jinghua from it to teach people to cultivate vitality. The five-colored divine lotus is the purest condensation of physical properties between heaven and earth, which can replenish and condense the qi of the essence, and the Emperor Shennong has realized the great trick from it. To tell you the truth, that's how I realized it. There is the origin of the Great Dao, and only what future generations can do can be in line with the Dao, just like a lamp ......"
Huwa told Taiyi a story about passing the lamp, that is, what the mountain master said to him when he saw the "lamp" for the first time, Taiyi blinked when he heard it, and then stared at it with wide eyes and thought, lest he miss every word that Huwa said. Although this master is a child, this only indicates his state of mind, and with his current cultivation, of course, he is not only smart and very sensible, some things don't need to be said by Huwa, just a little awakening or enlightenment.
For example, Huwa didn't introduce her origins, where she had seen the Langji Tree and the Five-Colored Divine Lotus, how could she use the cultivation of mortals to refine them into artifacts that fused with the form and gods? Of course, Taiyi understood that these were big secrets, so he simply didn't ask.
After listening to the "story", after a long while, Taiyi then asked: "The law of heaven and earth manifested by Lang Yu is the essence of the essence, and the law of heaven and earth manifested by the five-colored divine lotus is the great instrument formula. So are the Lingshu Formula, the Swallowing Form, and Pure Yang Formulas handed down by the Heavenly Emperors of the past dynasties also related to the other three immortal elixirs? Because according to legend, all the Heavenly Emperors possess immortal elixirs. ā
Tiger Baby: "I haven't seen the other three immortal elixirs, but what you said is very likely, and if you have the opportunity to see them, you should study them carefully." I have heard the master introduce the metaphysics of the Lingshu Technique, and I have also experienced it in my practice, if our guess of the Pure Yang Technique is correct, then I have also glimpsed a trace of the doorway, and I can confirm it when I see other immortal elixirs in the future. As for the swallowing formula, let's have a chance to learn more about it. ā
Taiyi wondered, "Sir, haven't you already practiced the Swallowing Technique?"
Huwa asked rhetorically, "Who said that? Why don't I know!"
Taiyi: "I didn't listen to anyone, I saw it with my own eyes! You were chased to the edge of the Western Wilderness by two demon cultivators, although I was trapped in the original body and couldn't transform into a form, but that was already a place within the reach of my gods, I could see you, how could I not notice such a strange thing? You turned into the form of a horse and ran wildly, but it was not the transformation method that I just turned into a small sapling, or the form of a swallowing horse, with the natural supernatural power of the original body of a horse, you can run so fast!"
Huwa asked, "Is this the trick of swallowing shape?"
Taiyi: "This is not the form swallowing formula, what else is the form swallowing formula? I have been practicing for 800 years, not only have I been to the west of the Western Wilderness and the south of the Southern Wilderness, but I have also traveled almost all over Bayuan. Although I have never been to Chiwang Hill, I have seen a master of Chiwang Hill perform the Swallowing Technique three hundred years ago, turning into a strange beast I don't know, and then turning into a fierce eagle!
He was fighting with a demon king on the coast of the East China Sea, and my cultivation was still shallow at the time, and when I saw it from afar, I was so frightened that I hid in the water, and I didn't dare to say hello to anyone at all. But later, I inquired about the rumors about the cultivation of the Swallowing Technique, and he actually did something like the Demon Cultivation Method in the opposite way, and he could personally use the natural powers of birds and beasts in the world. ā
Huwa was very interested: "You asked me so much, now it's my turn to ask you." How much do you know about the rumors of the Swallowing Formula, you might as well tell me all. ā
Taiyi shook his head and sighed: "It's clear that you have already practiced the form swallowing technique, but you want to ask me, a person who can't do it!"
Taiyi doesn't know how to swallow the form, but he has seen monks who practice the trick of swallowing the form, and he has also seen the masters who perform the method of swallowing the form, and he knows a lot of rumors that I don't know if it's true or false. The Swallowing Form Technique is a secret method for cultivating the form god, Taiyi has just figured it out, and the realm it points out is also beyond the difference between sentient beings and races, and is not trapped in the limit of the human body.
As for the mysteries of the higher realm, Taiyi still doesn't know much about it, but as far as the rumors he has heard, cultivating the form-swallowing technique and casting the form-swallowing method are still two different things. The form swallowing technique is a secret method for cultivating the form god, but it can only swallow the form of birds and beasts in the world after the completion of the Six Realms, and it is not without restrictions, let alone swallowing whatever you want.
Every method of swallowing the shape is a secret technique, such as the shape of the tiger baby swallowing the horse, which is a kind of secret magic power on the basis of the swallowing technique. If he can swallow the shape of an eagle, then he doesn't need to run, he can fly directly! (To be continued......)
