74 Good Things (3)
"Can you see it, but you can't touch it?"
Huang Chang had an excellent understanding, and immediately understood what the master meant, and Chang Qingzi nodded:
"Yes, on the road to cultivating immortals, it's not that you can't take shortcuts. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info you have relatively poor spiritual root qualifications, but you can beat most of the senior brothers in the sect, and now you are on a par with those genius disciples with the best talent and the fastest progress. It's because you've taken too much advantage along the way......"
"This is mainly because of Master's support in many ways. ”
Huang Chang said respectfully, and Changqingzi laughed:
"It's true that I've helped you a lot, but your own cleverness and cleverness are even more important—those cultivation resources that far surpass those of your fellow disciples and brothers are earned by yourself. Without a significant investment of resources, there is no way to talk about shortcuts...... Well, don't go far. Let's talk about the present—in my opinion, Ah Chang, in the next year or two, you'd better not rush to break through, carefully polish these foreign mana, completely refine them, and completely collect them for your own use before you can continue. ”
"In addition, with your spiritual root talent, just cultivating the Yimu Gong Method, and reaching the Sixfold Heaven Realm, the original is almost at the end. If you want to make a breakthrough in the future, I'm afraid you will have to find another way, practice another water practice method, borrow water to grow wood, and strive for a breakthrough - it can be combined with the requirements of polishing mana this time...... Well, there are many inconveniences at the bottom of the mountain, Ah Chang, after you return to the mountain, you should close it again, and lay a solid foundation, so that you will not regret it in the future - taking shortcuts is certainly enjoyable, but sometimes, some passes, you still have to be down-to-earth, and it is the right way to walk through step by step. ”
"Yes, disciple understands. ”
Huang Chang agreed, and Chang Qingzi then pointed a finger at his forehead, as if feeling his spiritual sense, and asked:
"The Wisdom Fruit is not only a remnant of mana, but does the remnant of the soul left by that Wisdom Master have any effect on you?"
Huang Chang smiled:
"I seem to have a few more fragments in my memory, and I know a lot of things from the past...... In addition, when I saw this tree, I suddenly felt a lot closer. ”
Huang Chang turned his head to look at the Bodhi Tree Demon, at this time, the Tree Demon no longer had the same demonic spirit as before, dominating this world - the monks of West Kunlun Mountain were the best at cleaning up all kinds of monsters, and the Tree Demon surrendered to the old lame man in order to survive, although he saved his life, but he will always be subject to people, whether it is good or bad is really difficult to say.
But at this moment, at least from the outside, the dryad has not changed much from before, except that the main body of the trunk from top to bottom is nailed with seven shiny silver nails, and a talisman is also pasted, which seems to be nothing more. With Huang Chang's well-informed, he could only identify that the seven nails should be the "Seven Star Town Soul Thorn", a very well-known set of magic weapons in the Xianxia world, as for what the talisman is, I don't know, and whether the sect has other suppression methods is not visible now.
Looking at the dryad that seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, Huang Chang's heart was flooded with a very strange emotion - as far as he was concerned, of course, he had no good feelings for this dryad, but feeling the thoughts of Master Zhiguang was not so. After receiving some of the memories in the Wisdom Fruit, he had a complete understanding of why the Wise Master had created such a Bodhi Tree Demon back then—in fact, it was inevitable at all.
There is never sunlight in the Moon Shadow Realm, and if you plant a Bodhi Spirit Tree here, of course, you can only absorb the moonlight and yin qi as nourishment, and it is natural to become a demon. Originally, this problem was not difficult to solve - when Master Zhiguang was alive, he often came to chant sutras to delay the demonization of tree spirits. When he is getting old and can no longer control the dryad, he can find a capable monk or Taoist priest to come and continue.
However, Zhiguang did not do this, because this place was the territory controlled by the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was shrouded and controlled by the West Kunlun Mountains. For some special reasons, he himself obtained the right to open a dojo in the area controlled by the West Kunlun Mountains, but this right cannot be transferred to other people. So if he wants to find someone to inherit this inheritance, he can only be a person from Kunlun Mountain.
At that time, the Moon Shadow Realm was already about to take shape, and once the Small Cave Heaven was formed, it could be used as the foundation of a sect. Even though the wise master has cultivated the golden body of an arhat and the Dharma is profound, he will inevitably have desires after all. He didn't want the foundation he had worked so hard to build fall into the hands of someone else, so he made a very risky decision......
Before his death, he tried to inject his life's mana and soul into the Bodhi tree through some secret method, so as to merge himself with the Dryad, and continue to carry his soul with the body of the Bodhi Tree, so as to obtain a certain degree of immortality, and at the same time be able to control the Moon Shadow Realm for a long time.
The fusion was successful, but it was not that he devoured the soul of the Dryad, but on the contrary - Master Zhiguang himself became the bait of the Dryad, along with his Buddhist exercises, scriptures, and even the remains themselves, all of which became the Dryad's talisman skills. Originally, the Bodhi tree did not care about gender, but it would be male and female when it became a demon. This tree demon was originally a female spirit, but after absorbing the soul of the old monk, it became neither male nor female, which was the strange voice that Huang Chang and the others heard before.
Huang Chang felt regret and shame in the remnants of Master Zhi's thoughts, but it was precisely because of his existence that the Dryad had not been able to affect the outside of the Moon Shadow Realm for more than a hundred years, or rather, he was unwilling - the remnant soul of the old monk finally suppressed the fierceness and murderous intent of the Dryad to a certain extent, making it only in the Moon Shadow Realm, at most it was only "hunting" within the scope of the Golden Pavilion Temple.
Overall, this is still a good old monk - this is Huang Chang's feeling. Although he was also a disciple of Kunlun Mountain, in his opinion, the risky decision made by Master Zhiguang in order to protect his own property was not a mistake, but a failure. In his previous life, in order to protect his private property, people could often do more drastic and unbelievable things.
Huang Chang reported the information he got in his memory to Chang Qingzi, who smiled slightly after hearing it:
"That wise master...... I still have some impressions. At that time, I was only a low-level Qi Refiner. One day, he was suddenly assigned by a senior of the sect to serve in the large square in front of the Longshouyuan Taoist Temple in the capital of the pickaxe. At that time, I was full of wonder, but after I went, I realized that it was the monks of this sect who were studying with friends from other sects, so that we, the disciples in white, could broaden our horizons. ”
