Volume 3 The Demon Emperor Passed and the Hades King Bell Rings Chapter 134 Sit and talk about it
Sanqing Palace, the first major religion in the ancient city, can almost be compared with the imperial dynasty, the treasure of the town palace I Ching is famous all over the world, coveted by all forces. Its palace master Yuan Qing, who was originally a disciple of Kunlun, had amazing cultivation hundreds of years ago, and now his strength is even more unfathomable.
Ever since he heard Duan Tianling mention the Book of Changes, Li Yunchen has always been thinking that now that he has come to the ancient city, of course he will not let go of this opportunity, and he has broken through and urgently needs a cultivation technique of the Immortal Road Realm, and the Book of Changes is very suitable.
"Sanqing Palace? Is there no problem? Now the ancient city is full of Kunlun and the ears of the Imperial Dynasty, and many forces are searching for our whereabouts, so don't throw yourself into the net when the time comes. "The blood civet was a little worried.
"No, Sanqing Palace is unique in the ancient city, not weaker than the imperial dynasty, and it is impossible to do things for it. Besides, the old-timers of the Yuan Qing Dynasty are highly respected and will not do that kind of thing. In the past few days, Li Yunchen has inquired a lot of news, and the world has a high evaluation of Sanqing Palace, and its reputation is very good.
"The predecessors of the Yuan and Qing dynasties are the teachers of the century, and there is an essential difference between the high mountain scenery and the Chai family. So little fox, you don't have to worry, there should be no danger if you go to Sanqing Palace, and by the way, we can also listen to the sermons of our predecessors, and we will definitely benefit a lot. Ke'er also agreed, she was also full of respect for Yuan Qing.
"Do you still need to listen to others, and if you talk about seniority, it should be that Yuanqing who calls me a senior. The blood civet said disdainfully.
Ke'er sneered, she didn't believe it at all, but Li Yunchen was in awe, this fox was very mysterious, even the eyes of gods and demons couldn't see through the reality.
After the decision was made, the blood civet cast the Yuan Spirit Technique, changed its appearance, concealed its aura, and evaded the search and came to the Sanqing Palace.
Since there was no one to guard, the three of them easily entered the palace, and what surprised them even more was that Yuan Qingzheng was sitting in the palace, dressed in white, with his eyes closed, as if waiting for their arrival.
"I heard that the I Ching can be used for deduction, and it seems to be true. ”
Li Yunchen and Ke'er stepped forward very respectfully, while the blood civet swaggered as if they were in a no-man's land.
When the three of them approached, they couldn't help but be shocked, the palace master of the Sanqing Palace in front of them was completely different from what they thought, not a white-haired old man, but a young and vigorous man! What was even more terrifying was that Li Yunchen couldn't feel the breath of this person at all, and on his body, there was no oppression of strength, only the spirituality of the dust.
The blood civet bent the ruby, revealing a strange look, as if even he couldn't see through the palace master of the Sanqing Palace.
"It has been a hundred years since the establishment of the Sanqing Palace, but the predecessors of the Yuan and Qing dynasties seem to be only in their thirties, which is really hard to guess. Kerr muttered quietly, she was also a first-time visitor, full of curiosity.
Li Yunchen was also amazed in his heart, this person was absolutely in the realm of perfection, and his strength was unpredictable.
Legend has it that five hundred years ago, a genius in Kunlun was born, although his physique was mediocre, his talent could be called a demon, and he could rival the big demon in less than ten years. Later, Kunlun inheritance, cultivated the Book of Changes, and created another miracle since the decline of the ancient city of Xingmeng after going down the mountain.
He is the ancestor of Sanqing Palace, Yuanqing, that is, the person sitting in front of Li Yunchen, who walked out of another way in the decline of the ancient city and the withering of talents. Many people thought that he would embark on the path of enlightenment and step into the realm of legends, but unfortunately he could not break through the shackles in the end.
Nowadays, no one knows what realm he is, some people say that he is the supreme of the human race, and he is equal to the human emperor.
Who is the human emperor, the founder of the dynasty, the first person under the Emperor Xingmeng, the ancient city has been unique for thousands of years, and the Yuan Qing Dynasty can actually compete with him, which has to be admired.
However, some people say that the human emperor once fought with the demon emperor, and there was a wound and stasis, which was seated thousands of years ago, and the strongest person in the ancient city was the Yuan Qing Dynasty.
Five hundred years, a legend of the human race has been written, how can such a character sit quietly in front of him, how can he make people calm.
"Those who come are guests, three Taoist friends, please take a seat. Yuan Qing opened his mouth, his words were not shocking, and he was not the slightest surprise at the arrival of the three of them.
Li Yunchen and Ke'er both sat cross-legged, while the blood civet looked at himself and lay down at will, not taking the other party in his eyes.
"The seniors have already calculated that we will come?" Li Yunchen asked.
Yuan Qing nodded slightly and said, "Yi has Taiji, the first birth of two yi, two yi give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip." There are a total of 8864 hexagrams in the Book of Changes, which can deduce the heavenly chances, and the cause and effect are clear, and the poor road has been calculated three days ago. Besides, a hundred years ago, there was a god who told you that you would appear in the ancient city a hundred years later, and the poor road has been waiting for this day to come. ”
"Wait for me?" Li Yunchen pointed at himself with a blank expression.
"Everything in the world has a certain number, fate has its own arrangement, this is your fate, you will understand in the future. Yuan Qing's words made Li Yunchen confused, and Ke'er and the blood civet didn't know why.
"I know you're here for the I Ching, you have just stepped into the immortal path, and you urgently need a cultivation technique. Yuan Qing said Li Yunchen's intention, "Okay, the emperor returns, and the ancient city should be prosperous." You are responsible for the rise and fall of the Xingmeng Ancient City, even if it is for the sake of the entire human race, I will pass on the I Ching to you. ”
"Emperor, the rise and fall of the ancient city?" Li Yunchen listened to more and more mysteriously.
Yuan Qing ignored Li Yunchen's doubts, and continued: "The Book of Changes is the treasure of the Kunlun Town School, although I am willing to teach it, but whether I can comprehend it depends on your own creation." ”
Li Yunchen was stunned there for a long time, everything that had just happened was incredible, and he didn't come back to his senses until Ke'er pushed him from behind.
"I am willing to listen to the teachings of my predecessors!" Li Yunchen clasped his hands together and bowed.
Yuan Qing didn't speak, there were thousands of stars turning in his eyes, and after a long time, he spit out a sentence and asked, "What is yin and yang?"
Li Yunchen was stunned, sat in place and meditated, and replied after a while: "Yin and yang, if there is no yang, there is no yin to live, and if there is no yin, there is no yang." It is easy to have Tai Chi, the first two instruments, Tai Chi moves and gives birth to yang, moving pole and static, static and generating yin, and static pole complex movement. One movement and one stillness, each other is its root. Divide yin and yang, and stand on the two instruments. ”
Yuan Qing smiled and said: "The Book of Changes emphasizes the unity of heaven and man, which is the evolution of the Tao, so what is the Tao?"
"Yi is the Tao, the Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two to three, three to all things, all things negative yin and embrace yang, impulsive to think of harmony, one yin and one yang is the Tao. These are the insights that Li Yunchen has gained in the three thousand worlds, and the so-called Buddhism and Taoism are of the same origin, which is also the truth.
"It's not complete, but I have already grasped the essence of the Tao. Yuan Qing was satisfied with Li Yunchen's answer.
"Please make it clear to your seniors!" Li Yunchen humbly asked.
"It's a good way, it's a very good way. All things are born as the way, all things are the way, there is me as the way, there is no self as the way, there is a heart as the way, and there is no heart as the way. The Tao is in your heart, it depends on how you understand it, for the learning is increasing, for the Tao is decreasing, taking the self as the Tao, and walking out of a Tao, this is the true meaning of the Tao. ”
Li Yunchen knew a little about it, but he realized something, he understood what Yuan Qing said, his heart was like stopping water, and he pursued the original understanding of the Tao.
"It's like I understand. The blood civet lay lazily on the side, looking at Li Yunchen's begging appearance, with a burst of ridicule.
Ke'er also listened in a daze, although she could roughly understand the meaning, but she couldn't grasp the profound essence of it.
In the end, Li Yunchen nodded and shook his head again.
At this time, a strange fluctuation spread, and with a flick of Yuan Qing's fingertips, a scripture rushed into Li Yunchen's eyebrows.
The eyes of the gods and demons manifested instantly, which is the scripture of the I Ching, which contains the origin of the Tao. The red and blue light flows, and the culture is for the sake of spiritual light and Dao patterns, and then blends with the divine consciousness of demon beasts, so that Li Yunchen is empowered.
The blood civet glanced at Yuan Qing, and judging from his surprised look, it was obvious that the other party also recognized the god and demon eye.
When the scriptures were turned into the origin comprehension by the eyes of the gods and demons, there was a clear qi overflowing from Li Yunchen's Tribulation Pill, washing the whole body, and the white and transparent scriptures flowed outside the body, but they appeared illusory and looming.
"This is only the first volume of the I Ching, which focuses on cultivating qi, but has no attack, and the next seven volumes can't be cultivated at all with your current realm. Yuan Qing said: "From now on, you can also be regarded as my disciple, if your strength is enough in the future, you can return to Sanqing Palace at any time, and I will pass on the later to you." ”
"Thank you, Master!" Li Yunchen bowed.
"Don't thank me, it's fate, and I'm just going with the flow. Yuan Qing sighed lightly, a burst of melancholy, the seemingly young face did not know how many years of devastation.
Although Li Yunchen didn't understand the meaning of the words, he admired the righteousness of the Yuan and Qing dynasties.
"Senior, you have a deep understanding of the Tao and unique insights into cultivation, dare to ask if there are immortals in this world, and what is the end of cultivation?" Li Yunchen asked, he came to Sanqing Palace this time, the Book of Changes is only one of them, and the second is to solve the doubts in his heart.
"Immortals, if you believe it, you have it, and if you don't believe it, you don't have it. Yuan Qing groaned: "Cultivation on the way, through hardships, stepping on the immortal road, controlling all things, and crossing purgatory." ”
Li Yunchen frowned, expressing puzzlement.
"Life is the greatest miracle, and the possibilities are endless. The path of cultivation is long, and it is necessary to overcome the four great tribulations, ascend to the immortal road, go through the baptism of all things, and go through the reincarnation of purgatory, so as to preach the Tao. In fact, whether it is immortal or Buddha, it is not the pursuit of strength, but a realm, immortals talk about immortality, Buddha talks about lifelessness, immortals and Buddhas are just a means for people to pursue immortality. ”
There are four small realms in the fairy road: concentrating, breaking the void, breaking the soul, and cutting thoughts.
Stepping on the fairy road can enter the realm of all things, the one who divides all things, the lord of all things, and the god of all things, and the gap between each layer is like a chasm, which is difficult to cross. A god of all things, who can cover the sky with one hand, catch the stars and pick the moon, and all things tremble for it.
As for the purgatory realm, there are eighteen layers, which are even more terrifying.
However, no matter how strong the person is, it is difficult to escape life, old age, sickness and death, and they will be drowned in the dust of history, and eventually the dust will return to dust. As strong as the gods of all things, they only have a lifespan of a few thousand years, and the purgatory realm cannot live for 10,000 years, even the emperor can't live forever. In this world, there are only immortals who can go against the long river of time.
"Is the Great Emperor the end of cultivation?" Li Yunchen still had doubts.
"No, the Great Emperor is not the strongest, and there is still a long way to go. Yuan Qing shook his head.
"Is it the pursuit of fairyland?"
Yuan Qing shook his head again, "Immortal is just a realm. Let's put it this way, a mortal who doesn't know how to practice can become an immortal if he is by chance, but he is only immortal, and without any strength, anyone can easily kill him. However, according to my speculation, if you really want to step into that realm, you still have to have a certain amount of strength as a guarantee, otherwise you will not be able to survive the immortal tribulation. ”
Li Yunchen stopped talking, feeling a little sad, how no one knows the end of cultivation, is it really like the appearance of the Silent Forest, it is endless darkness, and becoming an immortal is just an emptiness?
What is above the emperor, Yuan Qing also doesn't know, he can understand these is already amazing, after all, he failed to become an emperor, and there is still some distance from that step.
Subsequently, Li Yunchen and Yuan Qing sat down and discussed, like a spring breeze, and some doubts in their hearts were also solved, and they had a deeper understanding of cultivation.
Time flies, Li Yunchen forgot the time in the quest, and a day has passed in the blink of an eye. In the end, he left with Kerr and the blood civet, and Yuan Qing also closed his eyes and sat like a big bell without moving.
"Listening to this old Taoist priest's sermon for a day and a night, my ears were calloused. As soon as he came out, the civet began to complain and scratched his ears with his hands.
"I think that's a good thing to say!" Kerr stuck out her little tongue.
On this day, Li Yunchen has been running the Book of Changes, the ancient well of the Dao Heart has no waves, the mirror is like water, and his meridian breath is also extremely smooth. What surprised him even more was that this I Ching was merging with the Book of Changes in some strange way, or more accurately, the Book of Changes was devouring the Book of Changes!
"This absurdity is a mystery. Li Yunchen can only comment like this, so far, except for refining demon beasts, he has not found any effect of this mystery.
The three of them walked around the Sanqing Palace, and it didn't take long for someone to stop them.
"You're new here, don't you know the rules!"
Li Yunchen turned around, and a white-clothed Taoist priest walked over, looking like he should be a disciple in the Sanqing Palace.
"I'm just walking, what's the rule broken?" Li Yunchen was puzzled.
"Do you know what kind of place this is, this is our cultivation ground dedicated to Senior Brother Yuanzheng, no one is allowed to disturb without his permission, hurry up and get out of here!" The white-clothed Taoist priest said in a bad tone, not taking Li Yunchen and the others in his eyes at all.
"Why should I go? Is there a place where it is written whose cultivation ground it is?" Li Yunchen snorted coldly.
Ke'er also pouted and said, "I think you occupied it yourself, this is obviously a garden." ”
The white-clothed Taoist priest didn't expect these newcomers to be so reckless, and suddenly became angry: "The disciples of Sanqing Palace know that this is Senior Brother Yuanzheng's territory, you guys hurry up and get out, or I'll send you out by myself!"
Li Yunchen turned a deaf ear, ignored him, and continued to walk forward with Ke'er Blood Raccoon.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? I think the newcomer just owes a lesson, and if you don't suppress and suppress your arrogance, I'm afraid you don't know the height of the sky!" The white-clothed Taoist priest rushed over and slapped his palm at Li Yunchen.
"Smack!"
A loud slap, but it was not Li Yunchen who was beaten, but the white-clothed Taoist priest. Li Yunchen shot extremely fast, his golden palm was extremely hard, and the white-clothed Taoist priest flew out directly, with blood in his nose and mouth.
"You also want to teach me a lesson?" Li Yunchen didn't even look at him, and left directly.
"Dare to be presumptuous on my territory! Do you still want to leave?" Suddenly, a man in white rushed out of the house, and a fierce momentum erupted.
