After going round and round, Lu Bingwen led Gui Wujiu to a very remote mountain cliff and left alone.
Gui Wugui calmly observes.
On the mountain wall, clear light can be seen flowing, flickering and blurred, which is obviously the power of a special formation.
This also shows that this mountain wall has been passed down for a long time. If it were not protected by external forces, it would have decayed long ago.
After reading all the thirty-six inscriptions in a row, it was already sunset, and I couldn't help but sigh with regret as I was not to blame.
When it comes to opening up the Taoist lineage and expanding the inheritance, so that more disciples can make progress, it sounds like a very noble cause, but the manpower invested by the top and bottom is actually quite inconsistent.
Suspicion of inversion.
Just as Lu Bingwen said, when Gui Wujiu comes here, he is like a rare guest.
Because the stakes between this matter and the top figures of the Nine Sects are very thin. It seems that a person with outstanding natural talent and a little bit of unparalleled talent will be able to seize the position of the true king in the five hundred years meeting and have a way to make progress. It seems like this kind of person
, the whole life energy is either spent on further progress, achieving the Tao realm; or working hard to complete the Tao of the sect, or further expanding the advantages of the sect within the nine sects; it is difficult to have too much interest in caring about less than first-class characters.
, how is the way forward?
For example, among the nine sects now, the thoughts of Xuanyuan Huai, Mu Minli, Shu Yubai and others are definitely not here.
Except for the recent period when the period of 360,000 years is approaching, looking back on the past, there are only very few times when more than one top figure emerges at the same time in an era. They have no way to find a way, and perhaps one or two outstanding talents will be diverted to work hard.
To establish a path and establish a career.
However, these incidents are all special for a moment and are not an exception.
From another perspective, the consequences of the narrow path of the Nine Sects will only appear in the future when the world of Ziwei is fully taken over. However, the Qi of Taizhi is still very weak now, and the Nine Sects are currently living in hiding and escaping from the world.
, never appeared in front of local monks.
If it were not for the intervention of the ascended power, people such as the Hidden Sect and the Holy Sect would not even know about the existence of the Nine Sects.
Under such circumstances, the strength of the middle level of the Nine Sects is broken, the number of short-term realms is too small, and other shortcomings, it seems that there is no urgency.
If Gui Wujiu had not had a clear mind and felt the need to "find the roots", he might not have put all his efforts into it.
The person who erected this stone tablet was named Qu Minqi, who was born in the Youhuan Sect. Judging from the resume of the inscription, he was the well-deserved first person in the history of Jiuhe Sect.
However, he was not the founder of Jiuhe Sect.
Thirty thousand years after the Jiuhe Sect was established, Qu Minqi joined the sect and achieved a magnificent cause.
Speaking of which, his resume is a rare situation where "many top talents emerge at once".
At that time, within the Youhuan Sect, Qu Minqi and his senior fellow apprentice Jing Huiyue, who was thirty years his senior, were both regarded as outstanding figures of the moment. According to the words on his stele, according to today's standards, he was one to two steps away from the state of perfection.
The characters, compared with the thirty-six sub-pictures, are approximately between twenty and twenty-five.
Such a state has already surpassed most of the characters in the five hundred years of history.
However, during the five hundred years of successive generations, only one person could achieve enlightenment.
The two brothers competed, but Jing Huiyue narrowly won by half the battle, and finally replaced Youhuan Sect in the battle, successfully achieving the position of true king.
Fortunately, Qu Minqi's path is not hopeless, because he achieved the perfection of Nascent Soul very quickly, so five hundred years later, his achievements have not declined, and he will still have a chance to compete.
Unfortunately, fate played a trick on people. Five hundred years later, although Qu Minqi was qualified to fight on behalf of Youhuanzong, he even defeated the contestants of Chenyang Jianshan with great difficulty - this was also a rare lack of personnel in the history of Chenyang Jianshan.
The experience that was not immediately made up for in the next session - but failed to win in the end.
He was defeated by Yue Hengzong's warriors.
The one from the Yue Heng Sect, whose meritorious deeds were even better and had reached a perfect state, was the later third ancestor of the Yue Heng Sect.
So the way forward was cut off, and Qu Minqi devoted himself to Jiuhe Sect.
It is said that the cultivation experience of a person who has been victorious for five hundred years and enters the mysterious and glazed heaven is the most mysterious. Even for the person involved, it is like a dream, and it is difficult to fully understand its secrets.
Qu Minqi, however, seems to have anticipated his own demise. When Jing Huiyue became enlightened five hundred years ago, he didn't know what method to use, or maybe it was because of the close friendship between the two - he actually persuaded Jing Huiyue before he broke through.
Shi Gan took a risk and took a "Dream Returning Pill" to record the subtle experience of breaking through the realm.
If Jing Huiyue becomes the first person to successfully win the 500-year meeting but fails in the end, not only will he himself become a laughing stock, but the Youhuan Sect will also be disgraced. Moreover, after taking a shortcut, if he wants to go further
Extravagantly hoping for the Tao realm, the secret is to cut heaven and man apart, and it has no connection with the experience of breaking through the realm and taking a shortcut.
So the fact is that the risk is huge, but there is no gain.
But in the end he agreed to the request and took risks.
After Qu Minqi joined the Jiuhe Sect, he did not blindly work behind closed doors. Instead, he took several secret treasures brought from Youhuan Sect and went deep into the ruins to observe the steps of local monks in cultivating Taoism. Not only did he find many Taoist books, but he even made
He found an opportunity to watch with his own eyes the entire process of a local monk from the Seclusion and Hehe Realm breaking through to the Tianxuan Realm, and recorded it with a secret treasure, and reviewed it over and over again.
After returning to the sect, Qu Minqi gathered together with the nine sects of Taoism, and relied on his talents to study and develop, and finally obtained thirty-six inscriptions, which initially revealed the mystery of the local and nine sects' Taoism, and became the next method of the Jiuhe Sect.
Establish and lay the foundation.
The true knowledge and insights contained therein, even if I look at them today without any blame, I will still be greatly admired.
There are differences between the local Taoism of Ziwei Great World and the Taoism of the Nine Sects in terms of "true one" and "virtual one".
The local Taoism is called "True One".
The so-called true one means that there is a real "one". The so-called "one" is the hub and the core.
For example, if a person holds dozens of kites, then this person is the core, and the dozens of kites are pulled by silk threads and are under his control. If the kite flyer is willing, he can tighten the rope and pull the kites one by one.
Come back. Then the person holding the kite is a real "one".
Another example is the juggler in the secular world who stacks many canes and sticks one on top of another in a diagonal posture. It seems to be skewed, but it can still stand upright. It is clear that no specific stick is used.
It is the core support, but it forms the overall stability. Even if heavy objects are placed on it, it will not collapse immediately.
It's just that the sensitivity is higher, and all the forces are harmonious and round.
Or it is the same reason that many small pieces of wood, each of which is only an inch long, are built into a beautiful house that does not rely on any obvious big pillar for support.
This is "virtual oneness", the harmony of the whole does not depend on the core of an entity.
In fact, the real operation of Qigong is far from that simple. Because the Qi machine power is not static; it is always in motion, looking for a balance that does not depend on the entity.
The difference can also be seen from the step of forming the golden elixir.
The so-called elixir formation in local Taoism is really based on one elixir, adding bricks and mortar, and repeatedly cultivating it to make a "golden elixir"; while in the nine sects of Taoism, the mysterious elixir only plays a pulling role. Among them, the best state
, the entire elixir was completely burned out, leaving not a trace of residue, leaving only an empty driving force.
The difference has already been known.
But I didn't expect that the so-called difference between the true one and the virtual one is actually closely related to the realm of breaking the realm.
The most critical step in the process of breaking through the realm is to refine the Nascent Soul with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refining the Nascent Soul, which was originally self-sufficient in magical power, into a true spiritual body that can sense the inside and outside and control the power of the world.
The application of the principle of "True One" can also be seen in the process of local Taoism achieving Tianxuan Shangzhen.
The steps of its performance are to steadily add bricks and mortar, slowly incorporating the aura of the outside world into the Yuanying, refining it, assimilating it, and finally achieving the purpose of strengthening one's own body. The original Yuanying of one's own body,
It is the core of "True One"; the mana added later is material and auxiliary.
Compared with adding materials to this mold, it's nothing more than that.
Because the steps are stable, a lot of preparation work can be done in advance.
Appearing on the basis of meritorious deeds, it is the three realms of spirit transformation, step emptiness, and separation and union.
But the Nine Sects of Taoism is different.
Once the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is incorporated into the body, it does not take the body of the Nascent Soul as the core, nor can it be controlled by the spiritual wisdom of the cultivator. It is like a wild horse that has escaped the reins, and its momentum is difficult to control; there is no chaos, and this is the best.
If you insist on using magic power to control it, it will inevitably have the opposite effect; the harder you use force and the more attentive you are, the more chaotic and violent the spiritual energy of heaven and earth introduced into the Nascent Soul will be.
The way of cultivation is not to "reach the extreme of emptiness, remain still and sincere" and let it go without doing anything; rather, it is quite the opposite, to use your willpower and magic power to forcibly manipulate and control, so as to stimulate it to achieve the opposite effect.
It's subtle, like a process of elixir formation that's a thousand times more complicated.
It seems that the original body of the Nascent Soul is not very important, it just plays the role of a "mysterious seed" when forming the elixir.
When a large amount of spiritual energy is incorporated into the body and together stimulates the infinite chaos to the limit, then this chaos will cleverly reach a balance. Using the Nascent Soul as the paradigm, a precise and stable structure is formed. And the original Nascent Soul
After one level of refining, the body can naturally fade away and become a masterful incarnation.
With such aura, no trace of human carving can be seen, it is almost made of the creatures of heaven and earth. The nine sects of Taoism are worthy of being at the pinnacle of immortality, which can be seen from this wonderful principle.
Therefore, the local Tianxuan Shangzhen uses magic power and calls on the external forces of heaven and earth. Unless his own skills have been cultivated to a level that is one step away from the Tao realm, otherwise he will be suffocated; and the Nine Sects True Lord is as if he is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Lord, every movement and stillness is natural and unobstructed.
It's a pity that this method is wonderful, but there is a key difference that determines the breakthrough of the Nine Sects' method, and it has to be the Qi of Tai Zhi.
