That is, the disciples of Confucianism and Taoism cannot live forever.

No matter how talented you are, how beautiful you are, and how strong you are, you can rival those with great supernatural powers, but you will eventually be unable to escape old age, illness, and death.

A life of Confucianism and Taoism is but one autumn of immortality.

It's too short. Once the life span is exhausted, even taking the Innate Spirit Fruit or the Nine Turns Golden Pill cannot save it.

This is the biggest drawback of practicing Confucianism and Taoism, which is that you cannot live forever. However, there is no perfect path for everyone, and everything has a chance of survival. Although Confucianism and Taoism monks cannot live forever, they can become gods after death and switch to cultivating the incense and fire Shinto. There may not be a future.

A day of re-certification.

The ten levels of Confucianism and Taoism, from low to high, respectively correspond to the nine realms of Taoism, namely, acquired, innate, earthly, heavenly, mysterious, golden, Taiyi, Daluo, Quasi-sage, and Hunyuan.

Luo Jinxian.

Among them, the eighth-grade Confucian students are called Great Confucians, and their strength is comparable to that of Da Luo Dao Zun. The ninth-grade Confucian students are called semi-saints, and their strength is comparable to that of Quasi-Saints.

The tenth grade is a saint, which is the state that Ziru achieved after his death. He has the righteousness of heaven and earth in one body, and his strength is comparable to that of a true saint.

…

Zi Ru's body merged with the heaven and earth, and the Dao of Heaven was shaken, and the sound of Dao spread throughout the world for three years. At the same time, on the day of Zi Ru's death, the strength of the Confucian and Taoist disciples collectively increased sharply, and seventy-two great Confucians were born in one day, which shocked the world.

.

The "Spring and Autumn" written by Ziru has been blessed by the power of time, and it has undergone inexplicable changes, which means it has the power to predict the future.

The carving knife held by Zi Ru also underwent inexplicable changes. It was also infused with the power of time and turned into a supreme holy instrument, which was called the Spring and Autumn Brush by Confucian and Taoist disciples.

Once the Chunqiu pen comes out, it can determine life and death, and it can also turn the imaginary into reality. The things it determines are extremely mysterious.

Write the word "fire", and heavenly fire will come to the world; write the word "thunder", and it will turn into innate divine thunder. Draw an animal, and the animal will come to life directly.

The Spring and Autumn Brush Pen can be regarded as a treasure of creation.

However, this is not the most powerful aspect of the Spring and Autumn Period. Since it is named Spring and Autumn, it is naturally related to time.

A single stroke of the Spring and Autumn Pen can deprive hundreds of millions of years and turn decay into magic. And the Spring and Autumn Pen and "Spring and Autumn" work together to intervene in the future.

If something that has never happened is written in the "Spring and Autumn Annals" with Chunqiu pen, it will come true soon and become something destined to happen.

The two treasures combined into one become a sacred weapon of Confucianism and Taoism. Its power is not inferior to the innate treasure! However, this treasure cannot be used frequently because it consumes not magic power but Confucian luck.

"The body is in harmony with heaven and earth, and the true spirit returns to heaven and earth?"

"How could it happen? How could Xuanqing do it?"

In the Qing Palace on Jin'ao Island, when he saw Xuan Qing's body merged with heaven and earth, and his true spirit returned to the primitive world, the leader of Tongtian Cult lost his temper like never before.

Xuanqing was his pride. How could the most outstanding disciple of Xuanmen die so easily?

Although Xuanqing is in harmony with heaven and earth, he has not truly fallen. But in the eyes of those with great supernatural powers such as Tongtian Cult Leader, Xuanqing's current situation is that of falling, a complete fall.

All the innate souls have returned to heaven and earth, how can they not be regarded as fallen?

Yes, according to the realm of Xuanqing, the innate true spirit is immortal, but what is in the mouth of Tiandao, is it so easy to spit it out?

Integrating into the way of heaven and not appearing in this world, what is the difference between this and falling?

Not everyone is Hongjun Taoist. After combining their bodies with Taoism, they can still maintain their true spirit and show their presence from time to time. Moreover, how can the Heavenly Dao of that time be compared with the Heavenly Dao of today?

The way of heaven will also make progress!

Xuan Qing and the world are in harmony at this time, and I am afraid that he will never come back. How can the leader of Tongtian not feel sad when his best disciple dies?

"Master!"

"I hope Master will take action to save Senior Brother."

At this time, a group of Jie Cult disciples, led by Duobao, broke into the Shangqing Temple directly, bowed to the Master of Tongtian Cult, and begged him to save Xuan Qing.

However, the one who answered them was the leader of Tongtian who had a look of despair on his face: "I can't save you as a teacher. My body is in harmony with heaven and earth. This is just following the will of heaven. Even if I am a teacher and a saint, I can't interrupt this process."

"This is accomplished by the power of heaven and earth. As a teacher and a saint, how can I go against heaven?"

The power of the saint is given by Heaven, so how can he go against the will of Heaven? Therefore, Xuanqing and Tongtian Cult Master cannot save him.

It was also at this time that Xuan Qing's last voice came from a distance.

"If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening!"

The ethereal voice continued to echo in the Shangqing Temple and lingered for a long time.

After a while, the leader of Tongtian Cult was heard shouting: "If you listen to the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening. Xuanqing is a true seeker of Tao, and he is far inferior to him as a teacher."

After saying that, Master Tongtian looked at the disciples with sad faces and said softly: "Okay, you don't need to be sad for Xuanqing, you should be happy for him."

"He got what he wanted and died without regrets, so he still needs to be sad for it? This was his own choice. He lived to seek the Tao and died to seek the Tao. He has no regrets."

At this time, all the great supernatural beings had an inexplicable respect for Xuan Qing in their hearts. Because they saw in Xuan Qing the qualities that a seeker should have.

This is a true seeker who has truly given up life and death in order to seek the Tao.

Yes, compared with the vast and unpredictable road, what does life and death mean? If you can find the road you want, even if you die, it will be worth it.

Thinking about it, when Xuan Qing was about to die, he must have got what he wanted. It was what he had wanted all his life. If he could get it, he would die without regrets.

He died laughing!

The smile is full of relief and joy.

All the great supernatural powers in the prehistoric period have seen this. Therefore, they will not feel sad for Xuan Qing's death, but will envy Xuan Qing for getting what he wanted.

Every person with great supernatural powers has lived for endless years, but how many of them have not seen through life and death? There are definitely not a few people who are willing to die for the sake of seeking the Tao.

It's a pity that if Feng Zichen knew their thoughts, he would definitely sneer at them.

Everything about getting what you want and dying for the pursuit of the Tao are all fake. The so-called people who hear the Tao in the morning can die at night, and they are just pretending to be cool before disappearing.

As for the relief and joy before death, it comes from the heart. After all, after Xuan Qing dies, there is no need to act anymore, and there is no need to worry about the trouble that will arise after his identity is exposed. The cause and effect between him and Sanqing

, it can be considered a complete break.

All things will end if one dies!

Without all the troubles, how could Xuanqing not be free and happy?

It can only be said that making up your own mind is the most fatal.

However, the cause and effect has been settled, but the debt in the heart is not so easy to settle. It is true that Sanqing and Feng Zichen have a grudge, but Xuanqing is really raised as his own son.

This emotion cannot but be returned!

…

………………

"Yes, Senior Brother died as a martyr, which is exactly what He wanted. We should be happy for Him, not sad for Him."

"Elder brother is still here, and he definitely doesn't want to see us like this, acting like children."

After all, Duobao had a profound realm, so he quickly accepted Xuanqing's choice, came to his senses, suppressed the sadness in his heart, and started to join the group of junior brothers and sisters.

Seeing that their master and senior brother had said this, these Jiejiao disciples felt sad in their hearts, but they couldn't show it anymore, so they had to bury it in their hearts. However, they couldn't smile, and they just had no expression on their faces.

with a calm face.

At this time, a bright green light suddenly erupted on Penglai Island in the East China Sea. Immediately, three twelfth-grade creation green lotuses emerged from the depths of the fairy island, smashing into the void and flying towards Jin'ao Island.

"What?"

Sensing something strange, the leader of Tongtian Cult suddenly left the Shangqing Temple and came outside the temple.

"This is……"

Outside the Shangqing Hall, on Jin'ao Island, looking at the three twelve-grade green lotuses that suddenly appeared in front of him, the leader of Tongtian Cult had a mixture of astonishment, shock, joy, and relief in his eyes.

At this moment, Tongtian Cult Master finally knew why Xuan Qing cultivated so quickly.

It turns out that He really did it. He did something that even He, as a saint, could not do. He re-cultivated the lotus seeds of the 24th Grade Creation Green Lotus into the 24th Grade Creation Blue Lotus, the most precious treasure in the world.

With the assistance of the twenty-fourth grade Good Fortune Green Lotus, Xuanqing's cultivation speed can indeed be many times faster than ordinary people.

The Heaven-Opening Treasures are infinitely mysterious, especially the auxiliary Heaven-Opening Treasures such as Creation Green Lotus. Their help to the master is simply more obvious than the Heaven-Opening Treasures such as Tai Chi Diagram.

At this time, Duobao and others, who noticed the movement, also ran out from the Shangqing Temple. However, what they saw was a scene that shocked them.

Then, in the mid-air, three twelfth-grade green lotuses of good fortune reflected each other, blooming with a bright green light. And under the shining of the green light, the vitality of the entire Jin'ao Island became a little more intense.

Looking at these three twelfth-grade creation green lotuses, Duobao couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

"What?"

"The Twelfth Grade Creation Green Lotus?"

"Isn't this Senior Brother's treasure? Why do three flowers appear at the same time?"

As the senior brother who has the best relationship with Xuan Qing, how could Master Duobao not recognize Xuan Qing's favorite treasure, the twelfth-grade Green Lotus of Creation. It was precisely because of his recognition that he exclaimed in surprise.

In Duobao's impression, there is obviously only one Green Lotus of Creation, but why are there three identical Green Lotuses of Creation here?
