(This text is finally written.) It's very important, so I wrote it for a long time. This is where the turning point of the story begins. Ask for a ticket ~ ask for a reward ~ ask for support ~)

Overnight, the Chen State was destroyed and the temple collapsed, which was an event that shocked the whole continent, but it was deliberately buried and forgotten, no matter who it was.

No one seems to want to let their memories come up with this.

Even in the history of the mainland, it is only a passing incident, and the rest is only to publicize the great cause of the rise of the Demon Dao after the fall of the Chen State, and the great achievements of the Seven Kingdoms and the Seven Sects of the Seven Kingdoms to exterminate the Demon Gate.

People sang and sued, so that the history that hid the great cause and effect disappeared with the wind, leaving only a piece of singing and crying legends of demon slaying and a great chapter of national peace and security.

Two hundred years ago, the Demon Dao was wiped out, and the Seven Kingdoms were completely suppressed by the Chen State, and they all rose up and supported each other, the entire continent entered a prosperous era, and generations of geniuses continued to emerge in the cultivation realm.

Twelve land sword immortals, seven human sages, and ninety-nine Yang Yuan Venerables, these have all become familiar legends in the cultivation world.

When Chen Mo heard Zhuang Xingge's words, he recalled in his mind the countless poems and ancient books he read in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and all kinds of colorful historical pictures.

His mind was agitated, but at last he was deeply confused.

yes, why?

Why was the history of the fall of the Chen Kingdom, such a thing as the collapse of the temple completely covered up?

In the entire continent, there was not a single powerful voice that could be heard, so this matter sank into the deep sea.

It's like, the whole continent is avoiding this event.

"The whole continent...... Are you avoiding it?" Chen Mo muttered to himself, and suddenly felt chills all over his body, like falling into an ice cave.

Suddenly, there was a chill in my heart, and then I was out of control, and I felt cold all over my body.

He sensed something.

This feeling made him feel very uneasy, and it was the first time since he had cultivated the Tao that he had felt so deeply uneasy.

It was an instinctive restlessness, not controlled by any of his senses.

"You have the breath of a holy temple and the breath of a god and Buddha," Zhuang Xingge looked at Chen Mo, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, "You are very smart, so you seem to have sensed the sinister in it now." ”

Zhuang Xingge let out a long sigh, and gently pressed one hand on Chen Mo's shoulder, which was gentle and powerful, making the latter calm down instantly.

"Master, what should I do?" Chen Mo frowned, he was confused.

Before, he didn't have any chaotic emotions in his heart, no special thoughts, only a calm and firm heart.

This heart is called the heart of the Great Dao.

There are many cultivators in the world, and their purposes are strange, and some people just think that cultivation is very cool, and the sword immortal is very handsome, so they came to the Six Spirits Sword Sect.

Some people think that cultivating truth can gain powerful power and save the dead and help the wounded, so they worship the mountain gate.

Some people are bent on seeking the Tao, only seeking endless longevity and immortality, so they enter the sect.

Some people have no desires in their hearts, they just think that the avenue is a very interesting and mysterious thing, and then they pursue it wholeheartedly, not for any reason, just for the sake of their hearts.

Chen Mo is the fourth type of person.

He came to the sect to seek the Tao, he entered the inner gate to seek the Tao, and he continued to cultivate and improve his cultivation in order to seek the Great Dao.

He wanted to know what the end of the avenue was.

This is a mystery that requires an exhaustive lifetime to explore, so on the way to cultivation, there is endless joy.

Chen Mo enjoyed all this calmly, not moved by the successive provocations of Wang Meng and others, let alone by the threat of the owner of Longshan Cottage.

Seek the Tao wholeheartedly, without doubt.

However, now his heart finally appeared a trace of unrest, not calm.

He didn't know what to do, so he had to ask, Master, what should I do.

Zhuang Xingge glanced at him deeply, sighed, and said: "Life is determined in a few days, whether it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided." ”

"However, isn't a cultivator who goes against the heavens? The Master said that fighting for life with the heavens, with the earth, with others, and then not fighting for the sake of the Tao. Chen Mo said seriously.

"Child," Zhuang Xingge smiled, "There is no destiny, how can you go against fate." It's your fate, and you need to choose to face it head-on, or choose to avoid it. But—"

Zhuang Xingge paused, and his face became solemn.

"But what I'm telling you is that cause and effect are indispensable. Whether you choose to face it directly or resolutely avoid it, this eternal secret has a cause and effect that you can never cut off. ”

Chen Mo suddenly said, "What if I die?"

If you die, cause and effect will cease to exist.

Zhuang Xingge stroked his beard and laughed: "Before the battle, the first word is dead, interesting, interesting." It's a way to cut off cause and effect, but I'm sure you won't make that choice. ”

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Yes, of course I won't, isn't this too boring." ”

Zhuang Xingge groaned and said, "So...... Go ahead. The big cause and effect in this must be that you see through and cut off, because you do have the breath of a holy temple on your body, and the "Invincible Zen Scroll" seems to be an induction in the underworld, coming to you through the world of the sword mound, and no one can replace you. ”

"This ...... Maybe it's a signal, a sign that you should go. Zhuang Xingge's gaze became extremely deep, as if he was looking into the distant future.

Chen Mo suddenly asked, "But...... Why me?"

The world is so big, there are so many geniuses, and there are many human sages, land sword immortals, this kind of true immortal-level power that stands at the top of the cultivation realm and overlooks the unborn sentient beings.

Why did Chen Mo choose this cause and effect?

Zhuang Xingge laughed and said meaningfully: "Since everything exists, there must be a reason for its existence. Cause and effect have been created, and all the secrets can only be discovered by yourself. ”

"What the master said makes sense," Chen Mo's eyes gradually became firm, "This cause and effect has taken root in me, I must face it and find the truth in order to go further on the avenue." Otherwise, I am afraid of demons. ”

"Hmm...... You are now at the eighth level of the Spirit Fetus Realm, are you going to practice the Sword Dao or the Zen Dao?" Zhuang Xingge asked, "This matter must be carefully chosen, once chosen, it will determine how far you can go in the future." ”

"What will happen if you choose the wrong avenue?" Chen Mo asked.

"Naturally, if you fail to enter the void, you will be injured and reflected, and you will be lost. Zhuang Xingge said lightly, such things are too common in the cultivation realm, "The ninth-layer small thunder tribulation of the Spirit Fetus Realm is not trivial. ”

"I'll think about it slowly......" Chen Mo nodded when he heard this, he couldn't make a rash conclusion about this matter.

There was still a period of time on the ninth layer of the Spirit Fetal Realm, and he could slowly think about the avenue that was really suitable for him.

"I recommend...... You don't practice kendo. Zhuang Xingge looked at him and said solemnly.

"Why?" Chen Mo frowned.

"Because your fate with kendo is too shallow, and your fate with Zen is too deep. Zhuang Xingge sighed.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Elder Zhang Mosheng, that's what he said. I'll think about this matter myself, after all, it will be a while before the time to decide on the road. ”

Zhuang Xingge nodded, stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, it is true that there is still a period of time." You should practice well, feel good, and choose your own path. Although we old bones who have entered the Earth Spirit Realm have some ability to judge the fate of immortals, they are not extremely accurate. This kind of thing is still good at those old gods of Zhongmiaomen. ”

"Master, what is the place of those wonderful gates?" Chen Mo said curiously, "There are very few records of them in the scriptures of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, I only know that they believe in Buddhism and practice Buddhism. ”

Zhuang Xingge stroked his beard and said: "Zhongmiaomen is the only sect in this world that can count the whole world. ”

"Count the world?" Chen Mo felt that this was a bit too exaggerated.

Zhuang Xingge glared at him, and said with a smile: "Boy, what do you know, these monks have built the treasure hall on the top of Kunlun Mountain, the highest in the entire continent, and they have cultivated to a little bit, and they can't even go up, it's really the top of the sea of clouds." ”

"Zhongmiaomen only believes in one avenue, the holy way of heaven. They believe that Buddhism is boundless, and they can calculate the cause and effect of the world's immortals, so they can see through the red dust and not enter the world. Unless demons are raging, they will die in the treasure hall for the rest of their lives, and they will not come out to practice. They have walked all over the world and practiced meditation for seventy-three years, and no one has seen them now. ”

"So peculiar?" Chen Mo was dumbfounded.

"The most maverick sect is probably the Zhongmiao Sect. But other sects have no choice, after all, sometimes, I have to ask the old monk to turn the Jinglun and calculate the cause and effect. Zhuang Xingge's tone was also a little helpless.

Chen Mo was dumbfounded, this sect was also powerful to a certain extent.

"Heavenly Performing Holy Dao, so powerful...... Isn't it invincible in the world?" Chen Mo said in disbelief.

"Hehe, this day to perform the Holy Dao, even their abbot has not achieved the right result, how can he be invincible in the world?" Zhuang Xingge shook his head, "Thousands of Great Dao, anyone can foresee the invincible future of their Great Dao, but few people can reach the end." It is those sages in the world who jumped out of the Three Realms, are not in the Five Elements, and have not cultivated their own avenues to the end. ”

Chen Mo was silent for a long time, and said: "The road is hard. ”

"Not bad...... The road is hard, and the manpower is endless. Zhuang Xingge sighed, "Speaking of Zhongmiaomen, if you were born in the Tang Dynasty of the Western Regions and worshiped Zhongmiaomen, I am afraid that you will not be able to face your cause and effect in your life." ”

"Why is this?" Chen Mo didn't understand the truth contained in this for a while.

Zhuang Xingge said with a smile: "If you learn Buddhism first, your heart will be silent, and you will have the cause and effect, and you will not have the courage and ** to face life and death, and you will only sit down until you are old." But you learn the sword first, and with the sharpness and sharpness of the sword, you will only move forward bravely and cut out a piece of heaven and earth. After practicing meditation, it is a Zen sword that cuts people and me. How can you be afraid of that great cause and effect?"

Chen Mo suddenly realized, and thanked him: "Thank you, Master." ”

"That's not what I'm going to tell you. Zhuang Xingge waved his hand, pointed at Chen Mo's heart, and then pointed to the sky, "This is the guidance of the will of the gods and Buddhas, and this is the guidance of the mandate of heaven." Cause and effect, I'm just telling you in advance. ”

"The disciple understands. Chen Mo's heart warmed and smiled comfortably.

"Okay, this Zen scroll, don't you really need it?" Zhuang Xing said back to business.

"No, you don't. Chen Mo shook his head.

"Okay, then bring me the table. Zhuang Xingge laughed and put away the Zen scroll.

"How many merit points is this Zen scroll worth?" Chen Mo asked.
