Chapter 81: Self-reflection and seeing the essence
Li Xiu also understood that Li Ruocheng was actually helping him. At the same time, although Li Ruocheng decided to kill demons and practice Taoism, how could it be so easy to kill the inner demons?
The old demon Honglian was indeed too powerful. He was struck in the head by Emperor Longding's ten-mile-long sword, but his scalp was only broken. It looked like how powerful his body must be?
Li Xiu felt that he was indeed no match for the old demon Honglian.
But why not fight to the death?
Li Xiu swallowed a large amount of spiritual stones and turned them into spiritual springs, which not only filled many organs of the body's treasure pills, but also caused subtle changes in the cells of the whole body. The changes may seem subtle, but in terms of biological structure, they are
It is huge. Moreover, after Li Xiu's hundred meridians were washed by the spiritual spring, instead of continuing to grow, they shrank or even shrank. For example, ordinary people who had not been consecrated had almost no sense of Qi.
Li Xiu nodded with satisfaction, everything was still under his control.
This is all a matter of course. In Li Xiu's own words, from that moment on, his vision of cultivation has surpassed that of most people in this world. Even the powerful Nascent Soul may not be as good as him. Old Demon Red Lotus
I can't see how he can inspire the true fire in such a state.
As monks practice all the way, they only know how to strengthen themselves and gain more power, but rarely reflect on fundamental questions, such as: How can they obtain those powers? Why can they gain powerful skills and practice according to the practice method?
Breaking bottlenecks layer by layer and breaking through realms layer by layer?
In fact, most monks have never thought about these things at all. Why? Because the purpose is different. The purpose of Li Xiu's cultivation is not to obtain the benefits that most people think, such as becoming a strong man to get more women?
Enjoy endless glory and wealth? Or overpower the heroes, dominate one side, or even overthrow the temple, and become king and respected? Li Xiu disdains these interests in his heart. The purpose of his cultivation is to break through himself, and he will not be able to go any further.
It's easy to say, but it doesn't hinder Li Xiu's pursuit. But Li Ruocheng doesn't understand this, and he doesn't understand the true way to be free and happy. He thinks that escaping from the world is truly free, but in fact it is not.
Li Xiu started his team and walked step by step to where he is today. In fact, his purpose has never changed, which is to observe everything and experience everything just to get more data and improve his own techniques. At the same time, he also enjoys every step.
At this stage, the process of cherishing every minute and every second has not lost some of his human nature because of his purpose, so Li Xiu is different.
After training in the world of mortals, Li Xiu is a maverick, and is destined to be accepted only by a small number of people who are unwilling to accept tradition. This is the fundamental contradiction of today's world. Li Xiu has no idea of changing the world for the time being, and just wants to start with
be oneself.
Strictly speaking, people like Li Xiu can be said to be true ascetics. The only variable may be that he met Li Ruocheng on the way. Li Xiu thought he could protect her and cut off the evil heart. But Li Xiu
I have also thought about this issue myself, and I think that without the original decision, Li Xiu may not have grown as fast as he does now. Cultivation is inherently a double-edged sword.
In fact, Li Xiu almost succeeded. Li Ruocheng had indeed embarked on a path of ascetic cultivation similar to his. He was not affected by knowledge, fame and fortune, saw his own essence, and broke through the spiritual silence in one fell swoop.
threshold.
But the human heart is the human heart after all, and it is pure and pure. It is like a mirror. There is nothing originally. If you are attached to the surface of the mirror, the dust will not be swept away. To put it bluntly, there is no real concentration and wisdom.
In fact, Li Ruocheng still can't really let go of the past. There are still shadows of the old demon Honglian and Kuang Ruoxu in his heart. This doesn't mean that you have to forget the past by yourself in cultivation. Once you let go, you will have a realm. This
It's wrong, you have to have a correct mind and a correct behavior, otherwise everything will be false.
Li Ruocheng has today's questions about Li Xiu. In fact, Li Xiu, the "protector", also has a responsibility. Li Xiu's generosity, from the beginning, he promoted eating at the same table and starting classes at the same class. For people in his original world,
For me, there is no problem, but there is obviously a gap between people in this world. This is something that cannot be helped. It is the gap and contradiction between the two worlds and the class itself, which cannot be avoided.
Not only Li Ruocheng, but also the people around Li Xiu are like this. None of them have a clear goal and purpose to motivate them. Strictly speaking, Li Xiu can only be regarded as a good professional teacher, but not a good life mentor.
This is of course also the unique feature of Li Xiu's method. After all, everything has many aspects. Li Xiu feels that once the people around him are given a specific goal and framework, then they will not be able to make the progress they have today.
On the contrary, if Li Xiu deliberately asks them, then Li Xiu is not Li Xiu and is not a person from another world.
As for guiding people to be good, or to teach them a correct outlook on life, Li Xiu has never thought of teaching these. First, he is still young, so he feels that these are just a drop in the bag and have no practical significance; second, in
In his view, any guiding ideology should be given up after a certain stage of practice and be one's own self. Therefore, when the master leads you in, practice depends on the individual. This saying is vividly expressed by Li Xiu!
In addition, Li Xiu is also thinking about a problem, which is the problem of consciousness.
Does a person need to have cohesion to achieve enlightenment? For example, to form a gang, a banner is needed? Li Xiu felt that unless it was a last resort, he would not have that need for the time being.
If there must be a banner, if only by playing a certain banner can he win the recognition of others and create cohesion. Then Li Xiu has made up his mind from this moment on and will focus on research from now on. This is the banner!
This is of course a banner, and it is also the most important banner in a world where the strong survive, a banner that is unique! Otherwise, if Li Xiu, as a casual cultivator, caters to the public opinions of this world, it will be difficult to truly integrate wherever he goes.
If you are jealous, you will not be annihilated by others, nor will you be killed by others.
And the current way of practice is what Li Xiu likes, and it is also a path that he thinks has a future. Why not insist on it?
Standing in the dark night, Li Xiu thought a lot. At present, even Li Ruocheng was doubting himself. Li Xiu felt that it was a failure. However, Li Xiu was not discouraged.
After thinking about it, Li Xiu thought that he might as well give the matter of refining an immortal body for the old demon Red Lotus a try. There are many masters in the world, so how much can be changed just because the old demon Red Lotus cultivates an immortal body, right?
Li Xiu doesn't think it's so easy to cultivate an immortal body. It's hard to say to what stage the Old Demon Red Lotus will evolve after getting his own Double Yang True Fire. Li Xiu feels that although the Old Demon Red Lotus is strong now, he can still control it.
, just keep an eye out. If she takes a big step in evolution, she may deviate from her prediction, and she may be in trouble. When the time comes, she will be afraid of disaster and will not be able to escape even if she wants to. This is not easy.
With the improved strength, the distance was shortened a little, and he was immediately pulled away. The scene of being detained by the old red lotus demon in the void of the Arctic ice field was not what Li Xiu wanted to see.
Thinking of the old demon Red Lotus, Li Xiu unconsciously thought of Li Ruocheng.
"Alas!" Li Xiu sighed softly.
Li Ruocheng's emotionless expression just now reappeared in front of Li Xiu's eyes. Li Xiu felt as if someone had punched him in the heart, which was very uncomfortable. Li Ruocheng's words didn't matter to Li Xiu.
Li Xiu must not let Li Ruocheng step into the devil's path again.
Li Xiu even remembered the first time he met Li Ruocheng. At that time, Li Ruocheng walked out of the red sedan chair in order to seize Li Xiu's pure yang energy and neutralize the demonic poison for her.
Is this a coincidence?
Absolutely not, this is definitely not a coincidence. After all, they are masters and disciples, and it makes sense that the two have many things in common. Li Ruocheng only practiced with him for a short period of time, and this year he became alienated from her again.
For Li Ruocheng, that was a full three years! Li Ruocheng stayed in the Galaxy Map for three years. In other words, Li Xiu and her had too little time to really get along with each other in private, and the old demon Honglian had no respect for her.
Not only does she have great kindness, but she has also been with her for so many years. How can I compare with her?
What's more, I have revised the Three Corpses Transformation Technique and haven't shared it with Li Ruocheng. The previous Three Corpses Transformation Technique itself has a certain demonic nature!
At this moment, Li Xiu felt that there was still a long way to go between him and Li Ruocheng! He suddenly felt that he was a little naive when he half-jokingly proposed to marry Li Ruocheng, and he also thought that his original definition was
Is it that easy to be a protector?
Ask yourself, can you accept Li Ruocheng, or can you accept Tang Ruocheng?
Thinking of this, Li Xiu couldn't help but sweat began to form on his forehead.
It turns out that the person he likes has always been Li Ruocheng in his imagination, and Li Xiu chose to ignore everything about Tang Ruo, thinking that Li Ruocheng would also ignore it. But they are basically the same person, without Tang Ruo, to put it bluntly.
There will be no Li Ruocheng.
Li Xiu has never figured this out or thought about it.
Of course, this cannot be said to be that Li Xiu is wrong. After all, Li Xiu is a person from another world. The earth in the era of interstellar plunder is a fast-paced era. Everyone is wise and wealthy. Social contradictions are gradually eliminated. People are unanimous in dealing with the outside world. Between men and women
In an era where the mind is very open. In order to obtain better genes and expand the population, there is a fixed matching pattern for mating. This is a necessary stage. This is the education Li Xiu has received since childhood. After all, there are too many stars in the sky.
Soldiers died on the starry battlefield, and a steady stream of people were needed to fill the vacancies, which was proportional to the demand for armors and mechas.
Therefore, Li Xiu could only sympathize with Li Ruocheng's past experiences and did not let Li Ruocheng face things directly. He only taught her the method of concentration and wisdom, which was tantamount to treating the symptoms but not the root cause. In fact, the correct approach is to treat her fundamentally.
To solve her inner demons, for example, if her biggest inner demon is Kuang Ruoxu, then Li Xiu must give her the courage to face it together, otherwise even Dinghui will always be a cancer in her heart.
Shen will become an evil ghost, which is extremely detrimental to spiritual practice.
"Oh, I only taught her how to be Li Ruocheng, but I didn't know that even if she did a good job, it was not complete at all. It seems that after solving the problem of the old demon Honglian, it's time to go find Kuang Ruoxu!"
At this moment, Li Xiu thought about many things. He raised the corners of his mouth and regained his confidence!
"Just pick a time and have a good talk with Ruocheng!" Li Xiu said secretly.
