Chapter 267: Cultivation is difficult, and it is even more difficult to save the world
As many students went to the mountain gate to check, Xu Xing's figure slowed down. Nothing extraordinary could be seen in each move.
However, as the figure danced, a lot of spiritual energy from heaven and earth had gathered around him. Yang Tuo looked at it with his eyes and saw that the gathered spiritual energy was very mixed.
Among them are not only the airy air of the sun, but also the air of the earth, which is relatively turbid in nature. The air of the five elements of the earth is gathered together, and the air of grass and trees and the water spirit are the main ones.
This makes Yang Tuo feel a little strange. Swordsmanship is mostly known for its fierce killing. Even if he has some understanding, most of the energy gathered is Gengjin Qi.
The sword technique that Xu Xing understood, although the sword energy is vertical and horizontal, is full of vitality. The gathered spiritual energy is mostly the energetic spiritual energy such as the energy of Yimu and the energy of Guishui.
When Yang Tuo saw it, he couldn't help but shook his head. Xu Xing's qualifications and understanding were very good, and he had learned good swordsmanship from the plaque on the academy.
This sword technique can already attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and it can be regarded as breaking away from the mortal realm. If you continue to practice with it, you will have the opportunity to cross the threshold of the immortal way.
Yang Tuo shook his head, not that he thought Xu Xing was bad. It was already very good for Xu Xing to perform like this.
He shook his head because he felt that the path of cultivation was difficult. Although Xu Xing had a good understanding, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth he inspired might be mixed.
Without anyone's guidance, it is possible for him to cross the threshold of the immortal path, but he will have to take a lot of detours. This is because he has no common sense in cultivation and needs all kinds of spiritual energy.
How to practice in the end when the light and spiritual energy of heaven mixes with the energy of the five elements of the earth? The pure and turbid merge, just like the union of heaven and earth, and the three realms return to chaos.
How could a novice try to control the power of chaos? The final result would definitely not be optimistic.
When practicing this way, you have to choose one in the end. If no one gives you guidance, you don’t know when he will find out.
This is the so-called true transmission of one sentence and false transmission of thousands of books. Many doorways are actually very simple, but if no one guides them, the road must be tortuous.
Every time I think about this, I can't help but feel a little more respect for the ancestors who overcame thorns and carved a road out of nothingness.
Countless people who came after him have benefited from them. Even Yang Tuo was the same. He got the method taught by Taoist ancestors from Jiang Ziya. Although it was not very profound, it saved him from many detours.
The "Sanguangdong Mysterious Transformation Sutra" written by him was also perfected from a mature framework and was not created out of nothing.
If he had been allowed to understand it naturally from the Great Dao, he might still be an ordinary little monk in the Qi-training period.
Soon, Xu Xing finished performing a set of sword techniques. It was said to be a set of sword techniques, but in fact it was not. It was just some specious movements.
If you want to perfect it into a set of swordsmanship, it needs to be continuously improved, finely polished, and gradually perfected.
However, the prototype is already there, and what is left is just some hard work. If someone can give me some guidance, and remove all the clutter, leaving only a pure magic power, it can be considered a good swordsmanship.
Xu Xing slowly finished his work, and then he realized that there were many students standing around him, and he was a little at a loss for the moment.
At this time, Yang Tuo came over. When the students saw him, they couldn't help but salute and said, "I have seen the mountain chief!"
Only then did Xu Xing come to his senses. He turned to look at Yang Tuo and found that it was the senior who was sitting on the big rock at the beginning.
He quickly bowed and said: "Senior turns out to be the headmaster of Taishan Academy. Xu Xing doesn't know the sages, so I hope the headmaster can forgive me!"
Yang Tuo nodded to the students first, and then said to Xu Xing: "It doesn't matter! I am just a person from the mountains, and I can't be considered a sage."
Although Yang Tuo said this, Xu Xing would not answer it like this. He just smiled and did not refute.
Yang Tuo looked at Xu Xing again and found that a large part of the spiritual power of heaven and earth he attracted had naturally dissipated.
The remaining small part was slowly integrated into Xu Xing's body, gradually improving his physique.
Whether it is the Qi of lightness or the Qi of the Five Elements, it is of great benefit to the human body. Although the spiritual energy it induces is mixed, it is still the essence of heaven and earth.
It is very helpful to the human body, but if you are practicing cultivation, you still have to get rid of it. You can't just ignore it and inhale everything into your body.
But now it’s just a little bit, so there’s no need to worry. The human body is inherently yin-yang-yang-five-element, so there’s no problem digesting a little bit of spiritual energy.
Yang Tuo asked Xu Xingdao: "What do you understand when you see these four words?"
At this time, Xu Xing bowed again and thanked him: "I would like to thank the mountain chief for his guidance. When Xu Xing looked at these four characters, he felt that they contained infinite sword meaning."
"It's a pity that Xu Xing's qualifications are dull and he can't understand it. He only learned a set of sword skills from it. Although it's just the first time, I feel that it is far better than what Xu Xing has seen in his life."
When Yang Tuo heard what Xu Xing said, he couldn't help but nodded. He didn't expect that Xu Xing also had some Versailles, just like someone in later generations who didn't know the beauty of his wife.
Just by looking at it for the first time, he was able to understand an extraordinary swordsmanship, and he also said that his aptitude was dull.
It should be noted that since the Taishan Academy was built, few people have had such an understanding.
It was hard for Yang Tuo to expose it, after all, so many students were watching. If he praised it too highly, wouldn't it mean that many students were incompetent.
However, Yang Tuo still gave him some pointers: "Although your swordsmanship is good, it is a bit messy. You still need to get rid of the bad and keep the good before you can take a step forward."
When Yang Tuo said this, he did not lower his voice deliberately, and a group of students also heard his words.
Looking up, I found that Xu Xing and several students were all enlightened. Xu Xing was able to understand because he was a feeler of strength.
Although he didn't know whether it was good or bad, he could still feel the nature of a lot of spiritual energy, and he finally understood it.
As for other students, they are also those who have entered the Qi training field. They are all people who have gained something in Yushu Tower.
Yang Tuo continued to ask: "I wonder why you are here?"
Xu Xing's face calmed down and he said: "This disciple is originally a follower of the Chu Kingdom. Because he saw the disputes among the princes in the world, the people suffered."
"I wanted to solve the people's problems, but I couldn't find a solution. So I traveled around the world to find a solution."
"While on the road, I heard that there are sages who are stationed on Mount Tai to educate people. I came here to ask the sages to teach me the way to help the world."
He said, bowed solemnly, and continued: "Now that I see the mountain leader, I know that I am an expert in person. I also ask the sages to have mercy and save the world."
As he spoke, he bowed his hands and bowed to the end.
Yang Tuo helped him up and said: "I am not a sage, I am just a few steps ahead. The world is in chaos, and it is difficult to have peace. Although I have a heart, I am powerless."
Yang Tuo's words are not false. How can it be so easy to save all sentient beings? From the saints to the gods and Buddhas, no one wants to teach the world and save all sentient beings.
Not to mention, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made a great vow that hell would never be empty and he would not become a Buddha. He would have fearless courage to save all sentient beings in hell.
However, it doesn’t matter if you don’t mention it! It just imposes a restriction on yourself, and the day of becoming a Buddha will never come.
But, because of this, Yang Tuo had to admire her compassion.
