Chapter 16 The Eight Great Spells
"Yongzi, are you going to ask?"
"I'm not going. It's so late, so don't disturb the Taoist priest from his rest."
After settling down, Zhang Zhe kept encouraging Tian Yong to ask Taoist Wenxi for advice.
A figure like Taoist Master can use thunder to retrieve objects from a distance, and can easily neutralize the attacks of Tian Yong and Li Dezhang.
Although they had heard other people talking about it in the past, they had never seen it themselves.
After meeting him recently, I naturally wanted to get closer. After all, not only did he become a disciple, he taught me two-hand magic and even gave me some pointers on kung fu, which was a huge gain for everyone.
"The Taoist Priest has been sitting there, not looking like he wants to rest.
Go and ask, maybe the Taoist priest doesn't mind."
"It's too late, let's do it tomorrow."
"Oh, okay."
"Layers and friends, please come in." Just when Zhang Zhe was about to give up, Taoist Wen Xi's elegant voice rang clearly in everyone's ears.
"I'm disturbing the Taoist priest."
Everyone was delighted when they heard this, lined up and walked into the house, standing in a neat manner.
"You're welcome, sit down."
He saw everyone silently picking up a futon stacked in the corner, sitting down obediently, and looking at him longingly.
Taoist Master Wenxi smiled and said: "You and I have no master-disciple relationship with Pindao, so it is not easy to accept you as a disciple, and it is not convenient to teach the Taoism of this temple to you."
Just when everyone was slightly disappointed, they heard the Taoist priest continue to speak.
"Despite this, the door of my Tao is wide open for convenience, and all sentient beings who are destined can ask questions.
And you all have chivalrous hearts and are open-minded.
Therefore, the poor Taoist can teach you the eight divine mantras that are widely spread by our Taoist sect, and you can gain some magic by chanting them day and night.
As for how many types you can learn, and to what extent you can learn them all depends on your personal circumstances."
"Thank you, Taoist Master." After hearing this, everyone smiled and bowed to thank you.
The Eight Great Divine Mantras of Taoism are used by Taoist priests in their daily exercises to purify the sins in their hearts, protect their minds, call upon gods to protect them, and perform Taoist scriptures.
This is a mantra that must be learned when getting started in Taoism.
They are: Purify the Mouth, Purify the Body, Purify the Heart, Purify the Heaven and Earth, Golden Light, Xuan Yun, An Earth and the Earth, and Bless the Incense.
Among them, the first four mantras have the effect of purifying the mind and removing karma, purifying the body and removing turbidity, strengthening the body and dispelling evil.
The last two mantras are used to summon spirits and summon gods, and to protect the law and the Tao.
The Xuan Yun Mantra, also known as the Xuan Yun Mantra for opening sutras, is recited when preparing to recite sutras. It can eliminate doubts and confusions, and lead to enlightenment.
To put it simply, it can help everyone better understand the Taoist philosophy contained in the scriptures.
Finally, the Golden Light Mantra is widely used and is a magical method of Taoist cultivation. Its power is incredible.
It has the effect of controlling ghosts, dispelling evil spirits, punishing evil and protecting the body. Over time, if the effect is profound, all evil will not invade and all evil will not come close.
The Taoist Divine Mantra is divided into mantras, dharma, talismans, and tactics, which require chanting mantras, cultivating dharma, observing talismans, and pinching talismans.
However, since we are not members of the Taoist sect, Taoist Master Wen Xi did not teach us any profound principles, but only taught us the method of chanting mantras.
Then he copied the mantra and gave it to everyone to memorize.
For a while, everyone gathered around a few pieces of paper and circulated and recited it, and asked the Taoist priest for help from time to time.
Half a month ago, Lingqing would never have been able to memorize this mantra in a short period of time, not to mention using a special intonation.
But I have experienced the baptism of Druid inheritance and the cleansing of the natural force. In addition, Taoist Master Wen Xi has given me tips from time to time.
By the time the morning star hangs high, Lingqing has memorized all eight divine spells.
But except for the Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Curse, which gained enlightenment once and appeared in the information panel, becoming a skill recognized by the panel, there was no progress at all.
"The character has completed relevant behavioral training, and your understanding of the [Eight Divine Curses - Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Curses] will be further deepened (1/5)."
The moment the spell was successful, a pure and spiritual energy emanated from his body, washing away all the alien energy within a one-foot radius around him.
And gathered the positive energy around him, making him feel like he was wrapped in the breath of nature deep in the mountains and old forests.
This kind of positive energy is not bright and grand, but a clear and clean feeling without impurities.
"Little friend Lingqing has quite a lot of understanding of the way of nature, so it is natural for him to be able to understand this divine spell.
It's a pity that you and I don't have a master-disciple relationship. I just hope that you can embrace the Tao, be virtuous, self-denial and cultivate truth in the future."
Taoist priest Wen Xi encouraged Ling Qing and said to Tian Yong and others who looked envious.
"Don't be impatient, just let nature take its course. When it comes naturally, you will achieve enlightenment.
Now Pindao will lead you through the homework, and how much you can gain depends on your understanding."
"Thank you, Taoist Master!" Even Ling Qing couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, and he bowed with everyone regardless of whether it was in compliance with the rules or not.
Then I started to do morning classes like Taoist Master Wen Xi.
When the sky was bright, the morning class ended amidst the profound rhyme of chanting, and everyone slowly came back to their senses.
"The character has listened to the teachings, and your understanding of the [Eight Great Divine Curses-Purifying Mind Curse] has further deepened (1/5)."
"...your understanding of the [Eight Great Divine Curses - Mouth Cleansing Curse] has been further deepened (1/5)."
"...your understanding of the [Eight Great Divine Curses-Purification Divine Curses] has further deepened (1/5)."
"..., your understanding of the [Eight Great Divine Curses - Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Curses] has been further deepened (2/5)."
When Ling Qing came back to his senses, messages flashed before his eyes, which immediately surprised him.
I didn't expect that I would gain so much insights from just one morning class with the Taoist priest. If I had done it for a few more days, wouldn't it be possible to learn all eight divine spells before leaving the dungeon?
This is much faster than him groping for half a month before getting started with Wu Qin Xi.
While Lingqing was checking the progress of his understanding, the others also gained something.
Although they don't have an attribute panel like Lingqing, it's like practicing a song, and they can already sing it completely.
In the future, as long as you remember the tune and practice more, you will be able to sing it completely at any time when you become proficient.
"Layers and little friends, your relationship with Pindao has ended. I hope you can recite it diligently in the future."
After seeing everyone come back to their senses from the joy, Taoist Master Wen Xi first encouraged everyone.
Without waiting for everyone to be disappointed, he then said seriously: "But there is something I hope you can help with."
"Just ask the Taoist Master."
Hearing the Taoist Master's solemn words, everyone did not have time to beg, so they had to bow their hands in earnest and accept.
"Because I was in a hurry when I came out, I didn't arrange everything in the temple properly, so I had to go back.
But the turbid air in the old tomb site is too strong. If you ignore it, it may cause trouble in the future. Now that you have learned this magic spell, you might as well go there to purify it.
Firstly, this saves the residents of the town from a disaster, and secondly, they can learn more from it.
I wonder what you think?"
"Thank you for your guidance, Taoist Master. I will obey the Taoist Master's orders."
Chapter completed!
