"There are countless ways for people in the world to cultivate immortals and cultivate the truth, there are those who are good at the fire, those who are good at the other family, those who look at the top door, those who guard the umbilicus, those who have good luck, and those who keep the seal hall...... In addition to these ninety-six kinds of outer ways and three thousand six hundred side sects, there are three major sects: the Fu Erb School, the Fu Gong School, and the Danding School.

The Erbium School includes the earliest sect Fang Xiandao, the monks believe that the immortals live on the overseas fairy island, as long as they meet the immortals, seek the elixir of life, and take it to become immortals, to the present, there are also monks who go to the sea all day to find immortals.

However, there are also some alchemists, after many years of searching for immortals to no avail, they feel that it is better to ask for others than to seek themselves, so they simply refine the elixir by themselves, this is the later immortal Dao, they focus on the study and refining of the outer gold pill, as well as the pursuit of yellow and white arts, to break copper and scrap iron into gold and silver.

The Erbium faction is not heavy, and believes that as long as there is an elixir, any person or animal can make great progress if they eat it, and even become an immortal immediately.

It is said that the fire dragon real people and the hug pu real people can do it, but the alchemists he knows have never seen anyone who can really refine the Da Luo Jin Dan. Of course, their alchemy skills are indeed much better than your lead and mercury uncle, hehe!"

"Ha Lu Ha!" Xie Lingyun suddenly laughed unscrupulously, the fire dragon real person is Wei Boyang, the author of the "Participation in the Same Deed" of the King of the Wangu Danjing, and Bao Pu Zhenren is Ge Hong, who wrote the immortal books such as "Hug Puzi" and "Behind the Elbow", they are all the ancestors of the Daomen! This kind of immortal character who has attained the Tao for thousands of years, at this moment, I don't know which fairy land Lu Dao is in at ease.

He smiled and said: "Don't let Uncle Lead and Mercury hear this, otherwise he will be annoyed, Uncle Shi is more simple than a fire dragon." ”

"The stinky chess basket always doesn't allow others to say that he stinks. Nanyangzi smiled and continued to teach.

"And the Fu Zheng faction, the original sect is the Taiping Dao, when Zhang Jiao met the immortals, passed the "Taiping Sutra", thus founded the Taiping Dao, calling himself a 'great sage and good teacher'. Because the canons and teachings are all good, and they have the merit of curing diseases and saving people, they soon have tens of millions of believers.

It was only later that Zhang Jiao became a thief, colluded with the demons of the wasteland, and set off the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty, intending to overthrow the world. Of course, in the end, they failed, and the Taiping Dao gradually died out, and to this day, the Taiping Dao people are still the same as the Tantric Lama, who can only live a sneaky life.

At that time, there were also Heavenly Master Dao, Maoshan Dao, and Lingbao Dao emerged one after another, and they are also the main generals of the Fu Gong sect now, and are called the 'Fu Gong Three Sects'......

The supreme among these Taoist priests has very powerful spells, much more powerful than those in your "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect"; some are just some gods and sticks, specially deceiving those foolish men and foolish women, what divine water, dog blood, and these are caught by Confucian scholars and monks to scold the entire Daomen, which is really too bad. ”

"Divine sticks, rotten Confucians, and lewd monks, which one is not harming the people, it's good to serve it in one pot. Xie Lingyun frowned.

"Well, then it's our Danding faction!

The Danding faction, also known as the Dan Dao, originated in ancient times, and human beings strengthened their own cultivation methods in order to fight against demon beasts and fierce beasts. Starting from the Yellow Emperor, and the collection of Laojun, this is the so-called 'Huang Lao's learning'.

Later, Lao Jun rode a green ox out of the customs, passed on the study of cultivating immortals to Yin Zi, and opened the Dandao Wenshi School. This faction directly cultivates the Avenue of Nothingness, and suddenly goes straight to the top. But because of this, they are also destined to be high and low, plus they do not set up a mountain gate, they are all passed on from one person to another, so now the monks of the Wenshi School are only in legends.

As a teacher, I have heard of the fairy wind Dao bones of the Wenshi faction, and I have never had the privilege of meeting the Wenshi Taoist Master and Taoist friends.

Lao Jun passed on the Donghua real person again and opened the Dandao Shaoyang faction. Whether it is the cultivation of the soul and the mind, or the refining of the body, from the initial start to the most rear, each has its own realm, it can be said that it is cultivated step by step, and step by step, just like a person drinking water, knowing whether it is warm and cold. Because the Shaoyang Sect is approachable, anyone can cultivate, and anyone can cultivate, so it can be popular in the world, and it is the largest sect in the world today.

The Shaoyang faction is divided into the Northern Sect and the Southern Sect, the Northern Sect comes first and then lives, and the Southern Sect comes first and then lives, and there are many differences.

But no matter what sect or sect, the essence of cultivating immortals in Danding Dao is always to refine yin and yang, return to simplicity, double cultivation of life, and double life as the first priority. ”

"Hehe, Chaotian Palace is a mountain gate of the Southern Sect, and the Taoist name of the teacher is Nanyang, which means to take the pure yang of the Southern Sect. Nanyangzi stroked her white beard, and her old face was quite proud.

"Hey, hey......" Xie Lingyun thought of something, and couldn't help but laugh. Beizong is a true cultivator, the rules and precepts are a basket, not only do they not have a good meal, but they are not allowed to be a single person with a woman, and it is good to be a single person for a lifetime;

At this time, the sunset dissipated, the sky was already the color of twilight, and the bright moon appeared.

Nanyangzi continued to preach: "Four kinds of Confucianism, ten kinds of monks, three kinds of Taoists, no matter what sect, whether you are cultivating immortals or studying Buddhism, everyone cultivates the same thing: the soul and the form.

Cultivating the soul of the gods is aimed at transcendent sanctification and attaining the truth, and cultivating the soul is aimed at soaring with both the form and spirit.

In order to be easy to learn, according to the steps of cultivation, the world divides the two realms of life into six realms, which are also the main merits of the Danding school, the 'twelve realms of life' are:

Sexual skills: refining oneself, holding one, preaching, hearing the Tao, leisurely, and extraordinary.

Life Gong: Building the Foundation, Knotting Dan, Dao Fetus, Yuan Baby, Yang God, Soaring.

This is our Taoist statement, for the six realms of sexual power, Confucianism and Buddhism have other terms, but in fact they are all the same thing; as for the life gong, because the two schools of Confucianism and Buddhism are not obvious, there is no other set of names. ”

Listening to the names of these realms, Xie Lingyun couldn't help but feel a little enthusiastic all over his body, he hadn't had much contact with these before, and couldn't help asking, "Master, can you briefly introduce them?"

"Good. Nanyangzi nodded, and didn't need to brew it, so he explained: "Let's talk about sexual skills first."

The first realm: self-refining/self-denial/meditation, that is, the cultivation of the mind at the beginning of the initial stage, the monk can stop thinking and stop delusion, capture the horse lock heart ape, the mind is not scattered and drowsy, break the demonic barrier and open the supernatural power, so as to contact the higher avenue.

The second realm: hold one/aspire/make a wish, Lao Jun said, 'the sky has a clear, the earth has a peace, and the god has a spirit', 'the saint holds a world', or aspire, or make a grand wish, all refer to finding the way you want to pursue, find your one, and be determined to pursue it!

The third realm: Enlightenment/Establishment/Fruition, is the process of you using your actions to preach the Tao, accumulating merit and merit, and getting closer and closer to that Tao.

The Fourth Realm: Hearing the Tao / Not Confused / Prajna, it is when you have attained enlightenment and completely awakened, just like the Buddha who has been doing asceticism for many years and finally heard the Tao under the Bodhi tree and attained Prajna, which is also what Confucius said no longer confused.

The fifth realm: leisure/knowing the destiny of heaven/liberation, at that time, you can go around preaching and saving people freely, so knowing the destiny of heaven is really a great relief.

The Sixth Realm: Extraordinary/Extraordinary/Extraordinary, hehe, congratulations, you have become the ancestor of a sect and a faction, and even a great sage who will leave incense for eternity, do whatever you want without exceeding the rules, and your spirit will always remain between heaven and earth. ”

"I'm also fifteen years old, and I haven't started the first realm of self-cultivation yet, and Confucius has already made up his mind when he was fifteen years old, which is really powerful. Xie Lingyun couldn't help but sigh when he heard it, seeing the sages and thinking together!

"Disciple, from ancient times to the present, how many great sages have there been?" Nanyangzi Ha Lu Ha Da smiled, he naturally couldn't compare, he was in his twenties back then, and he entered the second realm and established his own aspirations.

The old man continued: "Let's talk about fate. The so-called 'if you go along with it, you will become an adult, and if you go against it, you will become an immortal', and when people are born from their mother's womb, they will gradually change from the innate body to the acquired body, and there will be birth, old age, sickness and death;

The first realm: building the foundation, that is, laying a good foundation for the body, making the foundation needed for cultivating immortals, refining qi, passing through the veins, and passing through the knots, the first three three and the last three, cutting three corpses, and opening the entrance to the hall, when refining to the whole body, the meridians and acupoints are full and full, and there is a scene of the sun, moon and wall.

The second realm: knot pill, after opening the entrance of the body, the monk collects medicine and alchemy in the body, the left green dragon and the right white tiger, refining the dragon mercury knot, tiger lead, six big dings, one hundred pulses and, naturally the golden pill is formed.

The third realm: Dao fetus, after the completion of the knot, it is a process of warming the body, the monk exercises the five internal organs, skin, blood, muscles and bones, etc., and at the same time, the congenital Yiqi is also pushed step by step from the dantian to the mud pill palace on the top of the head, as if pregnant with a fetus in the womb.

The fourth realm: Yuan Baby, the baby was born, but this Holy Infant Divine Body is still very immature, to continue to raise it, this is a period of upbringing, cultivated to the top of the three flowers, the five qi Dynasty Yuan, the Yuan Infant is considered mature.

The fifth realm: Yang God, after the Yuan Infant matures, the monk can be born as an incarnation outside, that is, the Yang God, this Yang God will be formed when it gathers, and it will become Qi when it is dispersed, which is really unpredictable.

However, in terms of sexual skills, at least the third realm of enlightenment realm must be reached before the yang god can be produced. And the cultivation of the mind will also affect the number of yang gods, in the records of the Taoist book, the strong can cultivate two yang gods, three four...... and even incarnate tens of millions.

But the monks who can come out of the Yang God are all ancestor-level figures, as far as I know, none of the cultivators in the current world have cultivated to the Yang God Realm, and those ancestral court masters are only in the late Yuan Infant stage. Of course, those old guys who see the head and don't see the tail of the dragon don't know if they are teachers.

Sixth Realm: Ascension, all the Yang Gods returned to the Innate Ancestor Qi, survived the Heavenly Tribulation, the monk smashed the void, and the sexuality, life, and Dao were combined into one, becoming the real Da Luo Jin Immortal! Legend has it, the sexual skill also needs to reach the peak of the transcendent realm in order to have the ability to soar in the day. ”

Xie Lingyun listened to the longing on his face, Nanyangzi slowed down, and stroked his beard again: "There is a sentence called 'building a foundation in a hundred days, conceiving a baby in October, breastfeeding for three years, and facing the wall for nine years', which corresponds to the first five realms of life, and theoretically in less than fourteen years, a monk can cultivate a yang god." Of course, this is a very high standard, just like Kong Sheng said that he 'is determined at fifteen, thirty and thirty, and forty is not ......confused', and he can't ask for it in vain.

You must know that Lu Dao don't talk about the Yang God, most of the monks have cultivated all their lives, and they can't even reach the Dao Fetus. ”

"Master, I don't understand......" Although Xie Lingyun was yearning and excited, he had a lot of questions at the same time.

"If you understand, then what's the use of me as an old man?" Nanyangzi laughed, suddenly sighed lightly, and laughed at himself: "But as a teacher, I can only tell you about the first three realms of life, and when you reach the realm that I have never reached, the old man will have nothing to guide you." ”

Xie Lingyun couldn't help but look gloomy, originally more than 30 years ago, the master had already cultivated to the two third realms of "Dao Fetus and Dao", but for some reason he regressed, and now, the level of life skills is only the same as that of ordinary people before the foundation was built......

"Ake, don't be sad for me, this is the way chosen for the teacher himself. Nanyangzi could see what he was thinking, and he didn't care, and asked with a smile: "Then do you want to cultivate sexual skills first, or do you want to cultivate life skills first?"

"Hmm, let me think about it......" Xie Lingyun pondered, originally the people in the Southern Sect naturally came first, but the master's personality has always been enlightened, almost all of them are three religions, and there are not so many rules.

Nanyangzi was not in a hurry, first waited quietly for a while, and then chanted leisurely: "Disciple, Lu Zuyou sang in "Song of Knocking on the Rhyme" 'Only cultivating nature, not cultivating life, this is the first disease of cultivation. Only cultivating the ancestral nature and not cultivating the Dan, it is difficult for the Yin Spirit of Ten Thousand Tribulations to enter the Holy Spirit. But don't forget, Lu Zu then sang, 'Only cultivating life, not cultivating nature, just like a mirror without treasure.' Shou is a fool in the same world, and he has no control over the family wealth. ’”

"Okay, good, it's best to double cultivate your life, tell Lu Zu all about it!" Xie Lingyun smiled bitterly, in fact, he already had an idea in his heart, and said: "The spells in "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect" must be cast with a strong sense of the heavenly gods, and the higher the skill of the heart, the better, so master, I choose to practice the skill first." ”

Nanyangzi nodded and smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll teach you the skill of the mind first, the first realm, refining yourself." ”
