Chapter 907: Thunder God’s little devil? A hole in the entrance
"Ahhhhhhh~"
In the Taoist Temple of the Imperial Capital, deafening shouts rang out from the cave where Chu Chen was staying. The screams made everyone miserable.
The little ghost cried, crying very sadly.
A few days ago, when I was bombarded by thunder and burned by thunder and fire, and the pain penetrated my soul, I never cried so loudly.
It vaguely remembered how generous Mr. Ming Jing was in rewarding it when he was happy.
The spiritual incense was not a root or a handful, but a reward by the car. It had never seen such a generous and generous person before, and the little devil was shocked at that time.
But now, another huge opportunity is in front of us, but due to a combination of circumstances, it has been missed unexpectedly.
Mr. Ming Jing was so generous even before he was crowned emperor, and became the common ruler of the world. Wouldn't it be more beneficial?
The more the little ghost thought about it, the more regretful and sad he became. This time it touched the depths of his soul and he burst into tears.
That tearful little look really makes anyone who hears it cry.
Of course, the unscrupulous senior brother Chu Chen is an exception.
"Hahaha~"
The sadder the little ghost cried, the more interesting Chu Chen found it. At first he was suppressing his laughter, but later he couldn't help it anymore and started laughing wantonly.
"Senior brother, you are so bad, why don't you wake me up and let me miss your opportunity in vain."
The little kid looked at his senior brother with a resentful expression, aggrieved.
"You are sleeping in seclusion. How can I wake you up? There will be another chance to meet Mr. Mirror next time, so don't worry about it."
When Chu Chen saw the little devil asking about it, he immediately became very interested in him waking up. He stopped his smile and asked curiously:
"Little devil, what was the result of swallowing and refining [Kui Niu Head]? Did you notice any changes in yourself?"
A month ago, he killed the Jieyun Kui Niu and gave the rare treasure [Kui Niu Head] to the little ghost boy to devour. It has fallen into a deep sleep and has not woken up until today. Today, the little ghost boy woke up and there are still many
There was a hint of ambiguity and visions appeared frequently, which made him look forward to it.
"That's right~"
The little kid thought about it and felt it made sense, so he temporarily forgave his unscrupulous senior brother, scratched his head, then looked around at himself and murmured:
"I don't know what happened. I don't have any powerful magical powers now. It's exactly the same as before."
The little ghost looked inside and found nothing unusual. However, the smile on its face did not fade. Instead, it became more excited and said:
"However, senior brother, I had a long dream when I was sleeping. I dreamed that I had become very powerful. I was no longer a little fairy boy with no magical powers."
"Oh~"
Chu Chen became interested.
The dreams of monks with great supernatural powers are different from those of ordinary people. It is very likely that they are some kind of omen, which secretly indicates what is about to happen, and is generally quite accurate.
Not to mention, a fairy boy like Xiao Guizai.
Its dream must have a meaning.
"Little devil, what did you dream about? What magical powers did you have in your dream?"
The little ghost was in a good mood when he mentioned what happened in his dream. He forgot about missing the opportunity to beg for fragrance for the time being. He was very excited and couldn't wait to share:
"Senior brother~Senior brother~ After devouring the refined rare treasure [Kui Niu Skull], I became powerful. I dreamed that I transformed into a thunder god with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. His face was like indigo, his hair was like cinnabar, his eyes were bright, and his face was full of fangs.
He is as red as a monkey, with a long and sharp chin, wings of wind and thunder on his back, and holds a hammer and drill wrapped with thunder in his hand. He is so majestic. The thunder hammer and thunder drill are striking each other, punishing the heavens, and the nine-day thunder rolls down. It is really majestic.
, the demon is afraid."
When the little ghost said this, he held his head high and his chest high, looking "satisfied" and proud of himself at the peak of his life, with his face full of admiration.
"Good guy!"
Chu Chen's eyes widened and he was extremely shocked.
If the kid had this kind of dream on a normal day, he would definitely not take it to heart and just think that the kid was talking nonsense and was sleeping stupidly.
However, this time the little devil's dream was not a groundless daydream. What it devoured and refined was the rare treasure "Kui Niu Skull" transformed by the Heavenly Punishment Tribulation Cloud.
In fact, Jieyun Kui Niu is the "incarnation of the God of Thunder", and the head of the exotic treasure contains the power of the God of Thunder.
After being swallowed, having the magical power to transform into "Thunder Lord" is not without foundation, but is well-founded and has a clear context.
The more Chu Chen thought about it, the more he felt that things were interesting.
If the little devil has the ability to transform into the form of Thunder God, and has the magical power to command thunder from the sky, then he can exchange a shotgun with a cannon, and use the thunder technique to shake the world. He will no longer be the little devil who fights against the five scum.
He can even become his right-hand man, which is truly a transformation and impressive.
"Little devil, now you are rich."
When the little kid heard that his senior brother said the same thing, he became even more excited:
"Senior brother, do you think it's fun too?"
Chu Chen nodded and said realistically:
"Hmm, I think it's very interesting, little devil, this time you have met the great destiny. After you go back, master, uncle, and all the brothers will definitely look at you differently. You may even be a member of our Lingshan sect.
The most powerful fairy boy with ear reports."
"Senior brother, that's right~ I'm so powerful..."
The little ghost boy was dizzy from this series of praises, but he didn't have stage fright at this time. There was no other reason. He also felt that this matter was very promising, and his heart was full of expectations:
"Senior brother, tell me, when will I really have the ability to transform into Thunder Lord?"
Chu Chen said without hesitation: "I'm afraid this requires you to reach the upper third level."
The Immortal Child of Er Bao is different from the Immortal Cultivators of the Eight Sutras. Taoism and magical powers are not obtained through enlightenment, but with an innocent heart, in harmony with Tao, and mastered naturally. It is a kind of innate magical power.
There is no need to comprehend and study, but to awaken on your own.
Under normal circumstances, it is easiest to awaken new magical powers when you break through a major realm.
"Hmm~"
The little kid nodded repeatedly, feeling that what his senior brother said made sense, and immediately said:
"Senior brother, I have a feeling that we are about to break through. I'm afraid it will only take a few months."
Having said that, the little devil no longer had the task of commanding troops to clean the cave this time, so he went to seclusion again with great interest, as if he would not break through or leave the seclusion.
Of course, before going into seclusion again, the little devil who was addicted to fragrance did not forget to tell Chu Chen not to forget to call him the next time he meets Mr. Ming Jing.
...
The Imperial Taoist Temple is quite lively all year round.
Immortal officials with outstanding talents from all over the world came in droves.
Seventh-grade, sixth-grade, fifth-grade, and even fourth-grade monks with great supernatural powers, to name a few.
Most of them have encountered bottlenecks and come here as a pilgrimage to study in the hope of breaking through and moving to a higher level.
In comparison, there are relatively few upper-level third-level supernatural monks like Chu Chen who come here to meditate.
Generally speaking, upper-level third-level monks with great supernatural powers are qualified to serve as deputy mountain chiefs in the Imperial Taoist Academy, and they belong to the "class of high-level masters in the Immortal Court". Most of them have profound knowledge of teachers. Even if they are in retreat and meditate on scriptures,
Most of them returned to their own sects instead of the Imperial Taoist Academy.
Of course, there are exceptions.
The day after Chu Chen settled in the cave, he was planning to ask Taoist Changfeng for advice on how to comprehend the scriptures of the three caves. At this time, an old friend from outside the cave came to his door.
It was none other than my old boss, Master Huixin, and Xuan Fengzi.
"Ling Xiao, you really came to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy, hahaha~ Congratulations~"
A few days ago, Taoist Qingmu, Master Huixin, and Xuan Fengzi took the time to go to Qingzhou to attend Chu Chen's wedding. However, they left on the same day and missed watching Chu Chen's subsequent breakthrough and tribulation.
This time, the two of them congratulated each other, and it was naturally Chu Chen who made the breakthrough.
Master Huixin sighed with emotion:
"The poor man guessed that Ling Xiao would be able to break through in a short time. He never expected that this day would come so quickly."
"That's not true."
Xuan Fengzi nodded slightly. Others did not understand Chu Chen and were shocked by his breakthrough, but they were not surprised at all.
After many years of studying and discussing in Moyuan's Little World, everyone knows very well that Chu Chen's Taoist practice has long surpassed the realm of the ordinary fourth-grade great supernatural powers, and is no different from the veteran upper-grade third-grade divine powers. It is a matter of course to break through the bottleneck of the third-grade.
When Chu Chen saw the two of them, he was quite happy. After being a little humble, he immediately invited the two of them to sit down in the cave.
After some pleasantries, it became clear why the two of them came to the Imperial Taoist Temple.
These two people are quite unlucky.
They lost contact with each other in Moyuan's Little World for more than four years. As a result, their immortal errand was taken over by others and they were unable to return. They missed the opportunity to practice extensively.
The Immortal Court is a pyramid structure. The higher you go up, the more rare the Immortal Jobs are, especially the prestigious positions of State Pastor, Du Guan, and Minister of the Eight Departments of the Demonic Academy. As long as you do well, you will be able to practice widely.
, is the "hot cake" that the top bosses from all parties compete for.
After achieving great supernatural powers, the immortal cultivator will have endless vitality and live hundreds or thousands of years. However, due to the existence of "catastrophes", time is still extremely precious. Once delayed, the catastrophes will be entangled, and it will be impossible to practice martial arts in the world.
At that time, it is easy to fall into the embarrassing situation of being unable to achieve enlightenment and becoming an immortal, and being unable to achieve the goal of becoming a god.
"If a young man doesn't work hard, his old age will be miserable" is also applicable to monks with great supernatural powers.
Master Huixin, Xuan Fengzi is very concerned about the Immortal Court errands. It doesn't matter if the errands are gone in the past six months. After the Immortal Court High-level Gong Conference, there will be a big mobilization of senior officials. The capable ones will be promoted and the mediocre ones will be removed. This is extremely critical.
As a result, he did not go back to his master's door to study in secret, but came to the imperial capital to wait in person. While running the affairs of the Immortal Court, he practiced quietly in the Taoist temple of the imperial capital and studied the Taoist scriptures and Buddhist scriptures.
In other words, when Chu Chen came to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy, he had company again.
Xuan Fengzi was not surprised at all that Chu Chen had successfully comprehended the Three Cave Scriptures and was awarded the [Big Cave Urn]. Instead, he asked about his practice:
"It is indeed necessary to come to the Taoist Academy to study the Three Cave Scriptures. Ling Xiao, do you know about the [Xuanguan Yiqiao]?"
"I know, but I'm still far from breaking through the [Profound Entrance Aperture]."
Chu Chen shook his head and answered truthfully.
"Xuan Guan Yi Qiao" is a Taoist alchemy term, which is widely circulated in the spiritual practice world. It is not something you only come into contact with when you reach the upper third level.
In fact, when Chu Chen first entered the world of spiritual practice, his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, taught him about the "Book Talisman", and he mentioned the "Xuan Guan One Aperture".
"The so-called aperture is an orifice in the profound entrance. The great creation of heaven and earth is always in one orifice. If a person can know this orifice, all methods can be accessed. If you don't know the orifice of writing talismans, you will make ghosts and gods laugh. If you know the orifice of writing talismans, you will be shocked.
The ghosts and gods call..."
He still vividly remembers the scene in the past when his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, was giving instructions in the clean room under the bright moon and dim stars.
In fact, my master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, directed me towards the wonderful bond of spiritual practice.
However, at that time, both the master and him were just beginners, and did not know the mystery of "Xuan Guan Yi Ai". They only knew the wonders of "Book Talisman" and did not know the superior method of alchemy.
As everyone knows, this orifice is an extraordinary orifice. It is composed of the universe and the universe. It is called Shenqi point. There is Kanli essence inside. You should seek it from yourself, not from others.
This orifice is the orifice that connects to the sky, from which all gods come out and connect directly with the sky.
There is a hole in the husband's entrance, which contains the yin and yang of the heaven and earth, the sun, the moon, the stars, the three elements and eight trigrams, the four images and the five elements, the twenty-four Qi, the seventy-two periods, the wind, cloud, thunder, lightning and rain, all of which are contained therein.
However, this [Xuan Guan Yi Qiao] is mysterious and mysterious, neither the heart nor the kidneys, nor the mouth nor the nose, nor the lungs nor the stomach, nor the valley, nor the bladder, nor the Dantian, nor the Niwan.
This orifice is called nothingness in Taoism, it is also called the door of all wonders, it is also called the door of Xuanfei, Confucianism calls it Taiji, it is also called the door of morality and justice, it is called vacuum in interpretation, and it is also called the door of non-duality.
The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism each have their own explanations, but they reach the same goal through different approaches, and they all point directly to the "innate way".
Back then, when Chu Chen had just broken through to the realm of great supernatural powers, when the ghost generals under his command who practiced the Dharma Protector's method broke through to the realm of great supernatural powers, they needed "innate energy of transformation" to hope to break through.
This "Innate Transformation Qi" needs to reach the upper third level in order to extract it, but the chance of extracting it is very slim. Once you encounter it, it is a huge opportunity.
However, once you realize the "Xuan Guan Yi Qi", step through the gate of Xuan Ni, and get a glimpse of the "Innate Way", you can extract and refine the "Innate Qi" deep in the wonderful realm of Taixu, and collect the great elixir [Xiantian Transformation]
The chances of using Qi will be greatly improved.
Of course, the magical functions of [Xuan Guan Yi Qiao] don’t stop there.
[Mysterious Entrance Aperture] is extremely important for upper-level third-level supernatural powers.
If one cannot comprehend this heavenly aperture, one will not be able to progress to the third level of Taoism and will be stuck at this step.
Although daily hard practice of the super-level Dharma can improve one's magical power and cultivation, if one cannot advance diligently in the Tao, his realm will stop there, and there will be no opportunity for the second-level Tao or the first-level Tao.
Once the method of immortality is cut off, its upper limit will be limited to "human immortals" and "ghost immortals".
But becoming a third-level immortal, even if you are a lower-level corpse, is extremely difficult. Few people have achieved Taoism and fruition. Most of them have to be reincarnated and cultivate again instead of becoming gods through meritorious deeds.
[One Aperture of the Profound Entrance] It can only be understood but cannot be explained in words. The advice given by outsiders is really just looking at flowers in the fog. It cannot be explained clearly, and you have to understand it yourself.
There is a poem that says:
It doesn't matter if it's you or me, it's just me.
Thousands of changes were hidden from him, and it took thirty years to see through them.
In the world of spiritual cultivation, those who are on the third level with great supernatural powers are trapped in the third level and cannot advance to the second level. This is the reason for this.
Diyuan Longjun and Longling Empress were both masters of alchemy who had comprehended the "Xuanguan One Aperture" and had just entered the Xuanmen Sect. Unfortunately, the two elders could not give guidance to Chu Chen.
"Ling Xiao, it is normal that you have not been able to explore the [Xuanguan Aperture]. The poor nun and fellow Taoist Xuanfengzi have not yet understood the Heavenly Aperture and the unique method of vacuum."
Master Huixin’s face was full of regret.
The reason why the two of them are so focused on doing errands in the Immortal Court and cultivating merits and virtues is because they have not yet comprehended the realm of [Xuan Guan Yi Qi] and [Void], and their path to becoming immortals and Buddhas has encountered a bottleneck, so they are so keen to come to the imperial capital to seek help.
Need to run an errand.
Speaking of this, Master Huixin said earnestly:
"There are many Taoist and Buddhist masters who have gained enlightenment from the Taoist scriptures and Buddhist scriptures, and then realized the [Xuan Guan Yi Qiao] [non-dual method]. Ling Xiao, you have a high level of understanding. This time you come to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy to study the Taoist scriptures.
, I think you will gain something and lay the foundation for future understanding of [Xuan Guan Yi Qiao]."
"Thank you, Master, for your guidance."
Chu Chen was shocked, after he understood the [Three Cave Manual], there was such a chance for him?!
