Chapter 1583: Gambling (I)
In the Dragon Ridge, Li Wan and the others returned to their accommodation, and immediately counted all the magic weapons they brought, and the subordinates of Yanshi prepared for the agreed fighting method.
This matter is not only related to face, but also related to the conflict of interests between the two parties in Guanglan and the advantages and disadvantages of their respective Taoist inheritances, which is naturally very important.
However, when there was no one in private, Lu Mingyan asked to see Li Wan, and his expression looked a little worried.
"Master, I thought it was because of the arrogance of the dragon clan and great confidence in the Dharma Dao that there was the current Dharma Fighting Covenant, but looking back, I can also see that they seem to be intentionally guiding us to agree, will there be any problems in this?"
This matter was decided by Li Wan, Lu Mingyan was present at the time, and he did not object, so naturally it was impossible to talk about any circumvention of the fighting method and cancel it under the pretext.
But he does have a bit of an inexplicable omen, feeling that the dragon clan has another hand.
Li Wan said: "Do you also feel it?" Yes, the dragon clan did deliberately arrange it, they don't seem to want to see the instrument dao, but in fact, they have also studied deeply, and it can even be said that they are better at and understand the instrument dao than the heavens and the various dao systems, and they are naturally full of confidence in the contest between themselves and the instrument dao forces. ”
"What? Haven't they always been representatives of the traditional Dharma Dao? Master, you also said that in ancient times, the word 'Dao' was the Dao pattern symbol created by the Dao form Dharma body of the ancestor of the Dragon Clan, and the Dragon Clan itself is the representative of the Dao, the innate Holy Spirit, and they should have always been faithful to the Dharma Dao. Lu Mingyan was obviously shocked when he heard Li Wan say that the Dragon Clan was better at and understood the Dao than all parties.
"They are indeed the representatives of the Dao, the innate Holy Spirit, but it is not said that they can only be limited to the Dharma Dao? Their Dharma inheritance and cultivation are the result of the Tao aggregates that they are born with, but it is precisely because of this that they have a greater advantage than other races to discover and explore other paths. Among them, there are rumored ones, the Ancient Instrument Dao is all the way!" Li Wan said slowly, "You must know that the cultivation of the Instrument Dao also requires a foundation, the Dharma Dao is strong, and with treasure materials, there are naturally sufficient conditions." ”
Lu Mingyan's face changed, revealing a look of disbelief.
It's not that he doesn't believe what Li Wan said, it's really this matter. It was so surprising.
Look at the face of the Ao Li Dragon King, looking down on the appearance of his own Heavenly King Lao Tzu, who would have thought that the Dragon Clan itself was also good at and understood the Dao of Instruments?
"Isn't that ...... Wouldn't it be too bad for us?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I feel like I already know enough. It's just a matter of being the best!"
Li Wan waved her hand and said disapprerovingly.
"Speaking of this today, the teacher just happened to tell you about some things that I didn't have time to tell you before. As a teacher, he was originally a nobody. It started from the sect, became reckless, and then created its own path and opened a sect. This is the first line of my Tiannan Instrument Dao, and even up to the Heavenly Realm Cultivation Alliance, the Nine Dragon Domain of the Heavenly Realm. All of them have left the imprint of the instrument. ”
"The master respects the merit in the thousand years, and the teacher is the master for all generations. Lu Mingyan hurriedly complimented.
Li Wan said with a smile: "Don't interrupt, listen to the teacher." ”
Lu Mingyan vaguely felt that Shizun might have to confide in him some real secrets, these were originally absolute secrets of the Tiannan Instrument Dao lineage, and even some of them should have been annihilated in history a long time ago and never known again, so he couldn't help but show a serious expression.
I saw that Li Wan said this, and he also groaned for a while, and then he looked solemn, and continued: "At the beginning of your journey to cultivating truth, my teacher told you that in ancient times, the two worlds of heaven and earth, the story of the division and rule of immortals, and when the era of the immortal kingdom passed, the era was called antiquity, and it was the real ignorant period of our instrumental dao. ”
"After the small completion of the road for the teacher, it is difficult to cultivate an inch, and what is more needed is the accumulation of heritage and luck, so the energy is invested in compiling the history of the road, specifying the direction of development, production standards and other major events, and in the division of the teacher, the ancient Dao has been, from the beginning of the immortals to turn stones into gold, refining immortal weapons, all kinds of methods, can be regarded as the germ of the Dao. ”
"In the mind of the teacher, he does not regard those items refined by supernatural powers and spells as products of the instrumental path, and those magic weapons are mostly creations of supernatural evolution, which are equivalent to the things made by the master using the avenue of creation now. ”
"These things, in essence, are directly created with supernatural spells, just like the creation of the void, but they can indeed be called the origin of the instrument path, creating a way for living beings to use the treasures of heaven and earth to benefit themselves. ”
"No matter what magic spells, special methods, there is always a foundation, these unconscious actions of the ancients finally created such a thing as a magic weapon. ”
Therefore, later, heaven and earth had senses, and some strange spiritual products could appear directly in the form of innate magic weapons. ”
"This is the self-deduction and creation of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, in essence, it is the completion of the Dao. ”
"However, these are all innate magic weapons, which are important for the teacher, they are acquired magic weapons, and they are also the artificial parts that are born and raised!"
"But this is going to start from antiquity again. ”
Li Wan told the story.
"In ancient times, all kinds of wastes were prosperous, there was a period of unity of all races, regain the glorious period of the immortal road, when there were the two major sects of the heavens, the virtuous saints, felt that the thousand ways withered, the ten thousand laws declined, and took the initiative to take on the important task of re-establishing the law, so the way of cultivating the truth, to prosper, the way of the law also rose from that time, between heaven and earth, once again had the opportunity to sublimate the extraordinary, and it is different from the path of the immortal road of cultivation. ”
"It can be said that this method is the posthumous son of the ancient immortal Dao, and it is also the eldest son who is most valued, and it has been out of control since then, and it has lasted for millions of years, and there are not many people who have cultivated and attained enlightenment. ”
"Today's Dao people, although Shou Yuan and Fu Lu are much inferior to immortals, they are only limited by heaven and earth, in fact, they are closer to the origin of the Great Dao. ”
Among them, there are also some people who have no connection with the Dharma Dao, or because of the limitations of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, their talents are limited, and their achievements are not satisfactory, so they have to follow another path and pursue immortality and leisure, which is the origin of the so-called side door and left path. ”
"And our Dao was originally borrowed from immortal artifacts as such a means of benefit. ”
This sentence finally mentions the inheritance and roots of the instrument. According to Li Wan's words, the Dao of the instrument can indeed be regarded as an orderly inheritance with a long history.
However, what made Lu Mingyan a little difficult to accept was that Li Wan even admitted that it was a sideshow!
Seeing Lu Mingyan's expression, Li Wan knew what he was thinking, and shouted: "Confused, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, not to prosper with this, not to die at the end." Of course, the virtuous live in it, and the Taoist become successful, and the three thousand paths can reach the other side, and the dispute over the Taoism should be valued, but we must not be obsessed with this!"
Lu Mingyan was taken aback. Ashamed, he said, "Thank you for your teachings." ”
Li Wandao: "For the teacher, this is divided into the beginning of the instrumental road, but it is the era of the classical instrumental way, do you know, ancient times. Most of those who are qualified to pursue this path are above the Dao realm and below the middle stage, in order to enhance their strength. If you know this, you will find that it was also born in the side way. But compared to other methods that do not enter the stream, it is much more clever. ”
When Lu Mingyan heard this, there was a hint of surprise on his face, and then he suddenly realized: "Yes, the classical instrument is mostly made by individuals who collect treasure materials by virtue of their strength and explore and refine them by themselves, even if it develops to the current prosperous era, it is just the kind of avenue field of Lingbao Sect, produced by elite teachers in the style of small workshops, so we can only pursue high-quality products!"
"And the boutique, you need precious heavenly treasures, the demon cultivators of the dragon clan, do have the conditions for the development of classical instruments, and it can even be said that they are blessed with unique and extremely advantageous!"
Li Wandao: "That's true, the Dao of Instruments seems to be a sideline, but in fact, the threshold is not low, after the cultivation is successful, it is even more profitable, and even at the end of antiquity, there are many monks who specialize in cultivating this Tao and serving other powerful masters, this is the second generation, and it is also the source of the generation of full-time refiners!"
"That is, the birth of a true refiner, the path of the instrument, can be regarded as a real take-off. ”
"However, the masters of the dragon clan should have given up the weapon path at that time, because there are more refining masters in the world, refining magic weapons, the benefits are not so big, they only need to exchange treasure materials to get magic weapons, so why bother refining them themselves? It's better to spend more time cultivating the magic way!"
After talking about the first generation of Dharma Dao masters and cultivators, the real full-time instrument cultivators, Li Wan then talked about the history of many famous teachers in ancient and medieval times, and the development of instrument Dao.
Next, Lu Mingyan actually had an understanding before, it was the end of antiquity, and the Lingbao Sect had obtained the legacy of the Heavenly Saint Sect and developed the classical instrument path to the extreme.
However, on the side of Tiannan Qi Dao, Li Wan also obtained the relics of the Heavenly Holy Sect.
Speaking of this, Lu Mingyan couldn't help but express his confusion about the relationship between himself and Lingbaozong, and asked Li Wan to solve his doubts.
Li Wandao: "This question, the teacher has been exploring, it should be possible to guess that we and the Lingbao Sect are the real brotherly inheritance relationship, the predecessors of the Salary Dao people, or the major factions of the Heavenly Saint Sect, secretly arranged a lot of back-ups, and I got the opportunity after the Lingbao Dao people, and it was at this time that it came into being." ”
However, he immediately said: "But we rise at different times and in different places, and we have surpassed the classical instrument path and developed into the modern and even future instrument path, and the most important point in my "Great Instrument True Scripture" is to learn from things, and this sincere foundation is completely different from the essence of the classical instrument Tao and the Dharma Dao!"
"Although the dragon clan is good at understanding the Dao, but it is the old yellow calendar of the ancient times, the glory of the Heavenly Saint Sect, they think they are transparent, but they have never taken this road through, but when they encounter obstacles, they think that it can't be done, and they give up, but when they see the latecomers, they look like they are superior and have a superior attitude, which has fallen behind. ”
"The dragon clan thinks they have a plan, but they don't know that I am in the Nine Dragons Domain, and the Tiannan Instrument Dao...... It is no longer the path of classical instruments. ”
"In this battle, if you change to the Lingbao Sect, you will definitely lose, because the Lingbao Sect can only develop the classical instrument path to the extreme, but it cannot surpass the classical instrument path, and my new instrument path will definitely be able to win!"
This is the real key to Li Wan's conversation, and it is like seeing the sun through the clouds, dispelling the doubts and uneasiness in Lu Mingyan's heart.
"It turns out that there is such a layer, the classical instrument road, the modern instrument road, and the future instrument road...... The rest of the Dharma path is beside the ...... of things"
After Lu Mingyan's doubts and uneasiness disappeared, he was even vaguely moved.
It was only at this moment that he felt more and more the weight and preciousness of what he had learned, and also felt more and more that he was in the midst of history, and the responsibility of exploring and proving the path for those who came after him.
Even faintly, I felt the existence of the so-called destiny and luck.
Li Wan looked at his expression and knew that his heart had been cleansed, and his Dao heart was more firm, which was a good thing.
......
With both sides extremely confident, the time for the fight is approaching.
Of course, neither the Dragon Clan nor the Nine Dragons Domain will put the matter on the table, but even so, the relevant inside information is still spreading.
There are also Guanggou and others fanning the flames, if the dragon clan can win this fight, then the requirements of the Nine Dragon Domain cannot be raised, and the dragon clan itself will also have public opinion of arrogance and contempt for the enemy, and have greater ambitions for the Guanglan Domain.
This is exactly what the Lingbao Sect and the Taixian Palace, the Yang God Temple and other forces are willing to see, they can keep the dragon army in Guanglan, but they are unable to dominate the situation alone, so they can only seek an alliance with the Yang God Temple.
So, they need these public opinions.
Ao Li and a group of dragon kings also need these public opinions, because they are the dragon kings under the dragon kings of the four seas, and among the huge forces in the entire dragon world, they can only take care of the overall situation and obey the arrangement, and it is impossible for the dragon world as a whole to make a decision to retreat and stay there alone.
However, Ao Yu Dragon King is a descendant of the Dragon King of the West Sea, and he was defeated and wounded, and other dragon kings would not be willing to bear the consequences in vain.
The interests of Guanglan are moving, and they will never give up easily until they see greater benefits.
As a result, this fighting method was hyped up, and soon everyone became well-known, and even Li Wan did not explicitly agree, the two sides would use this as a bet to have a gambling fight, which was publicized very well.
The dragon kings of the dragon clan did not think that they would lose, but expected that they would be able to overwhelm the Nine Dragons Domain here, so they were more active in pushing the situation to this side.
"Isn't this equivalent to child's play? What we promised is obviously only whether to sign a refining contract with a puppet army of tens of millions of puppets, as well as the relevant treasure material trading cooperation ......."
When Li Wan learned this, she was secretly amused, and at the same time, she was secretly vigilant.
It seems that the kings of the dragon clan are really working hard, and they want to suppress people with public opinion.
Although there is no real oath and agreement, no one can force the Nine Dragons to act according to the rules, but the misunderstanding and discussion of outsiders will affect the situation here.
However, Li Wan was not in a hurry to explain, because he suddenly found that once he won, the dragon clan would not have the face to regret it.
Isn't this public opinion oppressing themselves? (To be continued......
