Chapter 285: Primordial Purple Qi Comes to Wu Yang!(1/2)
Chapter 285 Hongmeng Ziqi comes to find Wu Yang!
The shadowy figure of Taoist Hongjun appeared on the cloud bed in front of him, and many monks saluted him.
"Welcome to Dao Ancestor!"
Wu Yang looked carefully and found that Hongjun Daozu's aura was getting thinner and thinner.
Just like what Taoist ancestor Hongjun said, it feels almost like Tao.
"You don't need to be too polite. This time I will give three lectures in Zixiao Palace. It is a destiny. After the next three lectures, I will conform to the way of heaven, and there will be no more Hongjuns from now on!"
When Daozu Hongjun said this, everyone was shocked.
Being in harmony with the Tao is an extremely high state.
For those who have not yet entered the realm of quasi-sage, it is an elusive and unattainable realm.
Daozu Hongjun continued:
"This time we will talk about the way of saints. Listen carefully. If you have any questions, you can ask me!"
After Taoist Hongjun finished speaking, everyone became excited.
The way of a saint, this is the way Taoist Hongjun now practices. Although not many people in Zixiao Palace can achieve it, everyone is still listening attentively.
Even Wu Yang was sitting upright.
The brothers Sanqing paid full attention, Fuxi and Nuwa listened attentively, and the two of them in the West were very hungry.
As soon as Taoist Hongjun opened his golden mouth, infinite Taoist rhymes were instantly generated.
"The way of saints is the way of heaven and the way of nature."
What Taoist Master Hongjun said was lofty and profound, but many beings were unable to understand its true meaning at the beginning.
Only a few people with deep blessings can glean a secret or two from it.
Even though Wu Yang has extraordinary talents, they are all talents in physical cultivation. He is indeed far behind when it comes to Yuanshen.
Wu Yang could still gain something at first, but as the Taoist teachings taught by Taoist Hongjun became more and more profound, Wu Yang also began to become confused.
He couldn't understand those methods of cultivating the way of heaven at all.
There are many people in the same situation as Wu Yang. Even top beings like Di Jun and Tai Yi frowned and looked incomprehensible.
Only the six people on the futon in front were immersed in it one by one, comprehending the way of the saint.
Wave after wave of auspicious aura circulated, and these six disciples gained a lot, as if they might realize enlightenment at any time.
There are three thousand human beings in the Zixiao Palace. These three thousand are an imaginary reference. It does not mean that only three thousand creatures have arrived, but that there are countless monks.
It is a pity that among so many monks, only six of them, Taiqing, can understand the way of the saint.
This made Wu Yang think that perhaps the way of sainthood taught by Taoist Hongjun was originally prepared for the six disciples, and the other monks were just a foil.
If we look at the situation in later generations, it seems that this is actually the case.
"After the third lecture, the Hongmeng Purple Qi is distributed. Without this foundation of enlightenment, it is simply impossible to embark on the path of a saint."
Wu Yang sighed secretly. He took the initiative to break away from listening to the sermon, and instead began to look at the surrounding situation.
During this lecture, Demon Emperor Jun was surrounded by several Daluo Jinxian, and Fuxi Nuwa was also surrounded by several powerful men from the Phoenix clan.
This also confirmed that Nuwa and others had occupied the immortal volcano in the south. I am afraid that the Phoenix clan had surrendered to them, so they had the opportunity to come to Zixiao Palace to listen to the lecture.
In the distance, Kunpeng and Dong Wanggong were sitting together. They were listening intently to the Taoism. Unfortunately, judging from their frowning expressions, perhaps their gains were not great.
"The way of the saint has no beginning, no end, no trace. It exists in one mind and originates in all things in the world. Only by listening carefully can you find traces of the way."
Taoist Hongjun continued to preach, and unknowingly it had already been three thousand years.
At this time, except for the six people in front, the other monks had to stop. They could not understand the way of the saint at all.
If you force yourself to remember it, you will get a splitting headache, which makes everyone just sit there and sigh.
Ancestor Kunpeng looked at Zhunti and Yin in front of him. The way they were still enlightening made Kunpeng furious.
Now everyone can see that the six futons in front may have a big mystery.
It's just that the Sanqing brothers are enlightened. It can be said that their aptitudes are extraordinary.
But the qualifications of Nuwa and Dongfang are not outstanding, not even comparable to some of the top beings present, but the three of them can also achieve enlightenment.
This allows even a fool to see that there must be external help.
The six futons in front not only help in enlightenment, but also represent destiny!
After guessing this, the anger in Kunpeng's eyes became even more intense.
"I originally had a seat here, but it was taken away by two people from the West. I have no chance to listen to the saint's teachings and receive Zhunti. You deserve to die!"
Ancestor Kunpeng roared in his heart, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty madness.
Hong Yun, who was sitting next to Wu Yang, looked at the six people in front of him and was lost for a moment. His eyes were empty and lost, but then Hong Yun lowered his head. From the beginning to the end, there was no trace of anger.
No one can see Hongyun's expression, so no one can judge his true thoughts at the moment.
The Zixiao Palace is filled with auspiciousness, flowers are falling from the sky, golden lotuses are surging on the ground, and boundless spiritual energy nourishes the bodies of all the monks.
Unknowingly, Taoist Hongjun had been preaching for eight thousand years, and he just stopped.
"The way of saints is endless, and what I teach is not enough. When you go back in the future, you should practice it well, and then you can realize your true self."
Taoist Hongjun stopped to preach and spoke to the six people in front of him, but they still looked like they still had something to say.
At this time, Wu Yang recalled what he had heard before and found that except for the part he understood, the rest was completely blank. He had no idea what Taoist Hongjun said.
The Tao is indescribable!
Taoist Hongjun can use his own language to spread the way of saints, which is already very powerful, and it is impossible for him to be remembered by everyone again.
Only the Tao you understand is your own, and this part will be remembered by you.
"If you have any questions, you can ask me in person."
Taoist Hongjun spoke again to clear up everyone's doubts.
When Taiqing saw this, he was the first to stand up and asked:
"I dare to ask Master, in the ancient times, apart from the way of the saints, are there any other ways to achieve enlightenment?".
Taoist Hongjun only taught the way of the saints, which was the path he took, but in Taiqing's view, the way of the saints may not be the only way to attain enlightenment.
Taoist Hongjun nodded and looked at Taiqing with approval. Among all the disciples, Taiqing had the highest qualifications and the strongest cultivation. Taoist Hongjun regarded him very highly.
As a preacher, who wouldn’t like excellent disciples?
"Three thousand laws can all lead to enlightenment. As long as you understand the mysteries of the laws, you can achieve Hunyuan."
"In my opinion, the path to enlightenment can be divided into three paths. One is the path to merit, the other is the path to corpse killing, and the third is the path to law."
"The method of achieving enlightenment through merit and virtue cannot be successful without huge merit. It seems simple, but in fact it is not easy."
Taoist Hongjun said and glanced at Wu Yang intentionally or unintentionally.
Among all the people present, Wu Yang has the strongest aura of merit and virtue. If he is willing to embark on the path of merit and enlightenment, he may really be able to succeed.
"The method of killing corpses and attaining enlightenment is the three-corpse method I taught you before. I won't say any more."
"As for the law of enlightenment, it means relying on one's own understanding of the law without resorting to any external force, and using one's own strength to prove the Tao. Therefore, it is also called proving the Tao through force."
Taoist Hongjun's explanation was very clear, and everyone nodded.
To prove the Tao by force means to prove the Tao with the power of laws, not relying on external things, but relying on one's own strength.
Wu Yang kept it in mind that he wanted to take the road of realizing the Tao through strength, and now he has gone a long way on this road and has gained quite a lot.
Previously, Wu Yang believed that only by using the "law of force" to achieve enlightenment can it be called enlightenment through force.
Now it seems that I was indeed thinking too narrowly.
The "law of force" is just one of the three thousand laws. It seems that it is not correct to list it separately and call it "proving the Tao through force".
Taiqing bowed and saluted and sat down.
Daozu Hongjun continued:
"The methods of enlightenment each have their own strengths, just like the Three Thousand Principles. Who is stronger and who is weaker is not determined."
At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun stood up hurriedly and asked:
"Master, since the dawn of time, how many people have attained enlightenment?"
Everyone seemed to be very interested in this question, even Wu Yang listened attentively.
Taoist Hongjun looked at Yuanshi and said:
"Pangu was the first person to prove the Tao through force. It is a pity that he has fallen now. Whether he succeeded or not is not yet known."
"Those who have achieved enlightenment through merit and virtue have no great merit and virtue, and there are no successful ones now either."
"The way of the three corpses can only be mastered by one person."
"As for the endless chaos outside the prehistoric times, there are no living beings in it. I don't know what their cultivation is like, as a teacher."
