Chapter 570: Unspeakable (Second Update)
In the end, there was no accident, Xiao Xiaoqi did not find any books about the mirage, and he had to give up.
However, he found a book that interested him, called "On the Holy Way".
This is a book that introduces the Holy Dao, the so-called Holy Dao, that is, the way to become a literary saint, which is the point that Xiao Xiaoqi is most interested in after coming to the Holy Academy.
How did Wen Sheng cultivate, is there a specific method, and how is the realm divided?
It's a pity that after coming to Shengzai Academy for so long, no one has been able to tell Xiao Xiaoqi the answers to these questions.
So now I only hope that this book "On the Holy Way" can answer his question.
"Reading the books of the sages, those who have learned have attained one-twelve; those who have attained the habit of attaining one-twelfth of the masters; those who have attained the rank of the sub-saint are one-twelve; those who have attained the sub-holy fruit position are one-tenths of the saints; those who have attained the sub-holy fruit position are difficult to find one of them! Although it is easy to read, it is difficult to establish the way! Throughout the ages, the saints have not been passed on, and the sages have one way, each in his own way, if he has attained sanctification, he must read ten thousand books, go through thousands of humane, collect the wisdom of a hundred families, and become a saint! The holy path is slim, there is no way to go, and he can do and think ......about it."
After reading the whole book, Xiao Xiaoqi's face couldn't help but become a little heavy.
He can be regarded as knowing why there is no gentleman who has never introduced how to practice Wensheng, because there is no specific way to achieve Wensheng, and no one knows how to cultivate Wensheng, the only thing he knows is that there is a sub-saint first, and then he becomes a Wensheng.
However, there is no fixed statement even about cultivating Yasheng, and the future of a scholar seems to be a blank expanse, with no experience, no path, no direction, everything is like returning to the beginning, and everything can only be explored by oneself.
It stands to reason that the literary saints or sub-saints of the past dynasties, they must have understood the holy way, and they should also know how to cultivate, but the strange thing is that those sub-saints in history, none of them have revealed the slightest thing about the holy way, nor do they impart any experience, no matter how others ask, it is useless, this seems to be a tacit understanding between every sub-saint and even the saint of literature, that is, they don't say anything!
"It's so difficult! No wonder there are only a handful of literary saints in history!" Xiao Xiaoqi had to sigh, just as the book said: Although it is easy to read, it is difficult to establish a path!
It is far more difficult to create a thing than to learn a thing, just like Xiao Xiaoqi created the Jingdan technique back then, it is easy for later generations to learn, but Xiao Xiaoqi has been groping for many years, and even took more than ten years to evolve the Jingdan technique into a book of "Thaumaturgy", and now this "Thaumaturgy" has not yet been completed, because Xiao Xiaoqi's spiritual power cultivation has not yet come to an end......
And now this holy path made Xiao Xiaoqi feel confused again, and he felt that he couldn't start!
The reason why he was able to create "Thaumaturgy" was because of his natural talent for being close to the sigil, but what could he rely on for the Holy Dao?
There is no previous experience, and there is no direction of cultivation...... Only a little bit of groping?
Xiao Xiaoqi quickly thought of something, "Actually, it's not completely directionless, why do the sub-saints never reveal the method of sanctification?"
Those sub-saints, each of them is a person with great wisdom, Xiao Xiaoqi was thinking, maybe some people say that the sub-saints are hiding because they are selfish...... Maybe, but it's impossible for all of us to be selfish, so ......
At this moment, a movement outside interrupted Xiao Xiaoqi's thoughts.
Xiao Xiaoqi came back to his senses and looked outside, he first heard a lot of heated discussions.
Strange, this is Liuqing Library, why are there still people making noise?
Out of curiosity, Xiao Xiaoqi put down the book in his hand, and then looked towards the hot discussion.
He saw that the corridor outside was full of students.
The corridor is the unique architectural structure of Liuqing Library, which is built on the outermost periphery of each floor, semi-open-air, standing outside you can feel the breeze blowing, very comfortable, generally the people inside read the book for a long time, and then come out to rest and empty the place.
However, it was clear that the students who were discussing it were not going out to rest, but were discussing something, and they were all looking in a certain direction.
Xiao Xiaoqi didn't think much about it, just where he was sitting by the window, he followed the line of sight of those students and looked out the window......
At this glance, Xiao Xiaoqi couldn't help but exclaim, but saw that behind the Liuqing Pavilion, the Zhiyuan Holy Tree was emitting soft holy light, and it was those holy lights that were worth marveling at......
Every leaf of the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree is shining, and it seems to tell a full story, some desolate, some tragic, some beautiful, and happy......
From a distance, the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree in front of you is a peerless painting with a very layered sense, as if it can only be seen in a dream, and it is so beautiful that it makes people feel very unreal.
Soon, the mist emitted by the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree floated to Liuqing Library, and Liuqing Library was immediately bathed in holy light, and the readers couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly felt comfortable and relaxed!
Xiao Xiaoqi also felt the wonderfulness of it, the holy light aura emitted by this Zhiyuan Sacred Tree actually had the effect of calming the mind and recuperating the mind, so he only took a breath, and he felt that the fatigue of reading the book just now was swept away, and he returned to a state full of energy!
It is worthy of being a sacred tree that has lived for thousands of years, it is amazing.
And it was precisely because of the sudden appearance of such an abnormality in the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree that the readers ignored the rules of Liuqing Shuge and discussed it generously.
Xiao Xiaoqi heard that many people were writing poems and lyrics on the picture in front of them, in order to praise the greatness of the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree, which may be the Yaxing among literati.
At the same time, there are also people discussing, why did the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree suddenly descend auspicious? Isn't there something big going on?
Some people say that it is to prepare for the military in the near future, and some people say that the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree is about to awaken, which can be described as a variety of opinions.
What they said made sense, but Xiao Xiaoqi knew better than anyone else what was going on, if it was right, the situation of the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree should be just like what Lao Xuan said, "a thousand years of fruit", that is, the Holy Tree is about to condense wisdom leaves!
As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Xiaoqi had a big head, he hadn't found a way to deal with the old void yet, if that big fat worm threatened him again and asked him to help steal the wisdom leaf, how could he refuse?
"There is!" Xiao Xiaoqi suddenly thought that this Shengzai Academy was not only a book pavilion in Liuqing Library, but also a Heavenly Machine Pavilion of the Heavenly Axe!
Moreover, Tianji Pavilion specializes in collecting those special and rare books, maybe there will be books about virtual mirages!
The more he thought about it, the more likely it became, Xiao Xiaoqi suddenly couldn't sit still, while there was still time, or he would go to Tianji Pavilion.
"That's it!" Xiao Xiaoqi turned around excitedly, not paying any more attention to the Zhiyuan Sacred Tree.
However, when he turned his head, he was startled, because he didn't know when a white-haired old man stood in front of his desk!
The white-haired old man was staring at Xiao Xiaoqi, his eyes were full of inquiry, which made Xiao Xiaoqi frightened.
Xiao Xiaoqi found that although this old man looked old, his eyes were full of wisdom, and his whole body still exuded the unique bookish anger of a scholar, he should be a very knowledgeable old gentleman.
"Old gentleman?" Xiao Xiaoqi took the initiative to say hello.
The white-haired old gentleman didn't speak, but nodded at Xiao Xiaoqi, as if he admired Xiao Xiaoqi.
Xiao Xiaoqi frowned, there should be some misunderstanding in this, maybe this old gentleman mistakenly thought that he was a yellow-haired child.
"That's right, old man, I'm not like you see, I'm actually a student of our Shengzai Academy......" Xiao Xiaoqi wanted to explain clearly.
However, the white-haired old man didn't let him continue to explain, but said directly: "Tell me about your understanding of the Holy Dao!"
The white-haired old gentleman didn't smile, and sat down directly after speaking, sitting opposite Xiao Xiaoqi.
"Huh?" Xiao Xiaoqi was a little unable to react at first, but he quickly thought of something, so he raised the "On the Holy Dao" in his hand, "You mean this book?"
The white-haired old gentleman still had no expression, only said: "Don't stick to this, this is just an introduction, you can think independently." ”
Xiao Xiaoqi was not hypocritical at this time, and replied: "If you want to talk about the understanding of the Holy Dao, I only have three words!"
"Oh, what three words?" the white-haired old gentleman was intrigued.
Xiao Xiaoqi said mysteriously at this time: "Don't say!"
In this sentence, Xiao Xiaoqi simply and clearly stated the conclusion he came to after reading "On the Holy Dao".
If you don't have a certain understanding of the Holy Dao, you won't understand the meaning of his words, and you just don't know if this old gentleman will think that Xiao Xiaoqi is playing tricks on him.
At this time, the white-haired old gentleman was stunned for a moment, and then finally showed a smile, "Interesting!"
He then asked another inexplicable question: "How did you come up with the idea?"
Now it's Xiao Xiaoqi's turn to be interested, the old gentleman in front of him actually understands his words, which means that this old gentleman's ideological level has been synchronized with himself, or he thinks deeper than himself!
It is rare to meet a person who can go with him, Xiao Xiaoqi said freely, "That's the case, the sages and predecessors have not left any experience, so that the holy path is in a dilemma that it is difficult to move an inch, everyone is at the same starting point, and it is the original starting point, there is no direction, there is no road......"
The white-haired old gentleman nodded while listening, and asked, "Then how to break the predicament?"
Xiao Xiaoqi replied: "On the surface, it is indeed a predicament, but in fact, the sages have already pointed out the direction for us!"
"Oh, why do you say that?"
"It's very simple, one question!" Xiao Xiaoqi said with a smile, "Why is every sub-saint and even Wen Saint tight-lipped and doesn't say a word about the holy path?"
The white-haired old gentleman didn't speak at this time, but just looked at Xiao Xiaoqi with interest......
Xiao Xiaoqi opened his mouth to say the answer, but the white-haired old gentleman stopped him instead, "It's enough, don't say it, don't say it......"
Xiao Xiaoqi was a little surprised, but in the end he couldn't help but say nothing.
The white-haired old gentleman then said, "Okay, now it's your turn to ask me questions." ”
Xiao Xiaoqi didn't think too much, and opened his mouth to ask: "Are you ......?"
Before Xiao Xiaoqi could ask, the white-haired old man stopped him again, "Think clearly, you only have one question!"
There is only one problem? Xiao Xiaoqi felt a little inexplicable, he thought that he was just chatting with this old gentleman casually, how could there be any problem restrictions......
Wait! Xiao Xiaoqi suddenly remembered, could this be the old gentleman Su Li said about teaching and solving doubts!
The white-haired old gentleman seemed to see through Xiao Xiaoqi's thoughts, and nodded towards Xiao Xiaoqi at this time.
Xiao Xiaoqi was overjoyed, in this way, he might not need to go to Tianji Pavilion to toss.
Then, I only heard him ask, "Old man, do you know that there is any way to restrain the mirage?"
