Section 35 Epiphany

A person is born a spirit, and the cornerstone of its existence is the consciousness that man possesses. If there is no free consciousness, there is no difference between living and dying, just like mountains and rivers, what is the use of eternal existence?

Buddhism pays attention to a concept, cultivating the truth through falsehood, that is, the human body is formed by the harmony of the four major falsehoods, which is an illusion that cannot escape the existence of the void. However, human consciousness cannot exist independently from the human body, so it is necessary to use the four false combinations to practice the true nature of truth.

Taoism attaches more importance to detachment, and the human body seems to have become a burden, especially after the popularization of the Neidan method, the practice of qi and immortality has replaced the harmony of lead and mercury, and the absorption of the essence between heaven and earth has replaced the subjugation of the dragon and tiger in the Ding furnace.

Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, the human body does not seem to be their main pursuit in the pursuit of liberation, they value spiritual leaps more.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Xu had a lot of feelings in his heart, and he seemed to know what was the most important thing, so he immediately ordered the chamberlain to drive to Jiguang Tower.

Probably because of Yu Fuguo, Li Xu didn't even go to Jiguang Tower, because it seemed to have always shrouded Zhou Yufuguo's heavy and indissolable shadow, making it difficult for him to breathe.

and the old eunuchs who guarded Jiguang Tower, with an aura of refuge and incomprehension. When Li Xu was curious, he ordered Chen Chaoen to check the records in the palace, and the guards and eunuchs in Jiguanglou were ordinary eunuchs, and they didn't have any martial arts, but Li Xu felt that the things in this were by no means as simple as described in the records.

Although Jiguang Tower carries the shadow of Yufuguo, it is the largest martial arts treasure house in the palace after all, and it is also the place where Cardinal Wanhua is located.

With the inspiration he had learned from the story told by Yue Guhan, Li Xu decided to give Cardinal Wanhua another try.

Li Xu has always felt that Cardinal Wanhua, like his own crossing, is a kind of magic that transcends common sense. A simple machine, which can operate for hundreds of years without external energy supply, and has an automatic identification function, and the most ridiculous thing is that it can actually give different items according to the identity of the person who opened it.

What kind of mechanism is it that keeps this thing running for so long?

Before Jin Wuwei unfolded the guard of honor, Li Xu took Li Congxian straight to Jiguang Tower, leaving the new Zuo Jinwu general Li Congxian as a guard outside the door, Li Xu directly pushed open the heavy wooden door of Jiguang Building, and stepped on the bluestone slab in the building step by step to the dark Cardinal Wanhua.

I have consulted many ancient books, but I have not found any trace of Cardinal Wanhua in them, so it seems that the description of this object was commissioned by the Emperor of the Yu Dynasty to make it is correct.

The real trouble is how it works, because according to Yu Fuguo's description, the person who opens the Wanhua Cardinal can only be the one who is ordained by the Emperor. Once the emperor's qi is insufficient, it will not be possible to open this cardinal of Wanhua.

Although these are all the secrets that Yu Fuguo said, Li Xu understands in his heart that this is obviously nonsense.

If it is said that the emperor is not strong enough to open the Wanhua cardinal, it is true that the Ming Emperor and the God Emperor did not succeed in opening this Wanhua cardinal, and when they were the emperors, it was indeed a great chaos in the world, but the question is how can Yufu Guo be virtuous?

Could it be that a eunuch like General Yu also has the imperial qi in his body, so he can open the cardinal of Wanhua. Such an explanation is obviously incorrect.

There must be some other reason why he can open it, and the Yufu Kingdom can be opened but the God Emperor and the Ming Emperor can't open it.

Li Xu ignored the secrets around him, he stood in front of this dark iron frame, and used his true qi to fuse his thoughts into the ethereal realm.

At this moment, qi and intention converged, and Li Xu once again felt the fluctuations coming from this world.

Every book, every bookshelf, and even Jiguang Lou itself are sending a thick and simple fluctuation, as if telling the changes that have occurred here for hundreds of years.

Only Cardinal Wanhua remained silent.

It was hard and cold, as if it were an absolute nothingness, indicating his very different identity in a wordless way.

Li Xu once heard Na Luoyan say that everything fluctuates, and he only sensed a void in Taigong Chong in his life.

Li Xu still remembers that Taigong Chong, the second master of Lianyunzhai, seems to have had an adventure somewhere in the ruins of Bohai Kingdom, so that he became famous in the rivers and lakes, and Du Zhubei, the big boss of Lianyunzhai, seems to have been mentioned by the Taoist saint to have today's status.

Dao Sheng, the crazy horseman, has unconsciously stretched out his hand to the side of the couch of the imperial court?

The sudden association brought fear, and when the fear was revealed, the nothingness symbolized by Cardinal Wanhua began to spread.

The fluctuating singing gradually subsided, and the wordless silence seemed to be an elixir that could not be extricated from tearing Li Xu's mind into Cardinal Wanhua.

It seems to be the infinite deep sea, and it seems to be a black hole representing the end, Li Xu's spirit and will seem to be stripped from the body, if there is really a so-called "soul", then Li Xu's soul at this moment has been separated from his body in the fluctuations and ups and downs of nothingness, and he is torn between the cardinal and the body.

At this moment, he saw a different look in his eyes.

It was ignorance and stupidity, as if all spirituality had been detached from this body, and there was only an empty shell inside.

Li Xu turned his head, and he saw nothingness.

The absolute nothingness and distortion began to spread, gradually spreading to himself, the nothingness was attracting him, and Li Xu also felt his own fluctuations.

Conquest and domination.

It turned out that Na Luo Yan felt that he was like this.

Li Xu felt his own fluctuations, and then, as if he had no teacher, his consciousness began to resonate with this fluctuation.

As if it were the chirping of a bee, in the resonance, the nothingness representing Cardinal Wanhua began to merge with Li Xu's fluctuations.

Nothingness melted into the waves, and the fluctuations trembled and returned to nothingness.

Perfect unity, as it should have been from the very beginning of the universe.

This time, Li Xu opened his eyes again.

The world has become different since then, even if he doesn't have to be calm and deliberately sense, Li Xu can "see" the fluctuations of the world. This kind of seeing is different from visual seeing, but it is as if you have acquired a new feeling, and you can understand the information contained in the things around you just through waves.

And Li Xu also felt his fluctuations, although they were weak, but they were growing all the time. This fluctuation seems to be the two sides of one's body, although it is hidden in the void, but in fact it is the most essential existence of oneself.

The fluctuations were growing, growing at a geometric rate, as if devouring the power from the Void, and the waves were expanding at a frantic rate.

Countless True Qi surged from his body, and Li Xu felt the fullness of True Qi in his body, as if he had countless True Qi available for his use as long as he wanted to.

Li Xu looked at Cardinal Wanhua again, and at this moment he already felt the meaning of nothingness.

All life is destined to come to an end.

In the end, after decay and decay, nothing remains, and finally disappears.

Only the conquest of the nothingness that symbolizes disappearance and end, the fluctuations that represent existence and continuity, will continue.

Nothingness is destruction, and fluctuation is existence.

The man who made the cardinal of Wanhua did not use any magical technology, he simply used his extraordinary magic skills to destroy the process of "becoming, living, destroying and emptiness" that matter should have undergone, and re-planning the laws of the iron box according to his own mind, changing the original rules of physics.

Cardinal Wanhua may also be inextricably linked to the Dao Sage. Li Xu finally understood why Yue Gu Han was so interested in Dao Sheng.

Li Xu turned around and walked out the door, Jiguanglou at this moment no longer meant anything to him.

The greatest significance of Dayu Taizu's leaving Cardinal Wanhua is probably to let future generations realize such a miracle, as for what imperial qi and secrets, it is probably just a bait left by that Taizu.
