In fact, Chu Yan is still not very clear about it. He only knows that Taoism is a combination of beliefs and ideas and is the foundation of the existence of the world.
But Holy Emperor Huafeng is infinitely close to the Immortal King and has a more accurate understanding of the Taoism.
So seeing the shocked look of Holy Emperor Hua Feng, Chu Yan frowned and asked humbly: "Dean, is there anything wrong with me being the source of the lineage?"
"Do you know what the source of Taoism is?" Holy Emperor Hua Feng asked.
Chu Yan thought about it and said: "I have heard from the seniors of Xianyu that the source of Taoism is actually the medium for releasing power. The stronger and more precise the source of Taoism is, the better the mastery of power.
good."
"More or less, the source of Taoism is actually a manifestation of your own power, but it is not accurate." Holy Emperor Hua Feng pondered and said: "Actually, the so-called Taoism is more like a rule of the world."
"rule?"
"That's right, for example, the Purple Bamboo Immortal Palace is where the Purple Bamboo Immortal King's orthodoxy is located. The rules of this world are not determined by heaven, but by the Purple Bamboo Immortal King. This is the Purple Bamboo Immortal King's orthodoxy." Holy Emperor Hua Feng said.
: "Of course, this is a concept, a kind of power of faith. It is very mysterious and not easy to understand."
"Let me tell you another way. As we all know, when you reach the Holy Emperor, your body's strength will be sublimated. The Holy Road is born, and the Taoism is born. My understanding of the Taoism is actually that human power is forcibly separated from the Cangtian Avenue, and part of it belongs to
own world."
Chu Yan nodded in agreement. Recently, he also discovered that after the birth of the Holy Road, it seemed to seize part of the power between heaven and earth and control it for himself.
"This is also the reason why it is said that spiritual practice is an act against heaven. The sky itself has its own way and its rules. But if human beings want to establish an orthodoxy and create rules in this world, that is to go against heaven and compete with heaven for fate."
"My destiny is determined by me and not by God. This is also what it means. Create a world of your own and no longer be bound by the laws of heaven. From now on, it can only be determined by man."
"As for the source of orthodoxy, it's actually a bit more complicated. The source of orthodoxy is the object you took away from the world and shrunk it to appear."
"As you said before, the strength of the source of Taoism will directly affect the combat power of the Immortal King."
After Immortal Emperor Hua Feng finished speaking, he paused and gave Chu Yan more time to absorb. Then he smiled and said: "Let me give you an example. The source of my orthodoxy is Zizhu Academy, which means that this is my world.
But at the same time, I will also be restrained by this world."
"The more prosperous the Purple Bamboo Academy is, and the higher the cultivation level of the students and disciples, the more they will turn into the power of Taoism and feed back to me, and my combat effectiveness will also increase and become stronger."
"On the other hand, if Zizhu Academy declines and declines day by day, and students are fighting among themselves and neglecting their studies, then the source of my orthodoxy will also be affected and its foundation will be damaged."
Hearing this, Chu Yan frowned: "How can the source of orthodoxy still have such a role? What if the source of orthodoxy is destroyed?"
"At a minor level, there may be cracks in the Taoism. In serious cases, the Taoism may even fall apart, causing a decline in cultivation and death." Holy Emperor Hua Feng said with a smile.
"so serious?"
"Of course, once the source of the Taoism is born, it will live and die with it, both prosperous and destructive." Holy Emperor Hua Feng said with a smile: "However, isn't this also the charm of the spiritual world?"
"This is why some powerful immortal kings will hide the source of their orthodoxy and protect it secretly from others. Because the source of the orthodoxy is not only a help but also a weakness. Once the source of the orthodoxy is known to the enemy, it is likely to
Do something to target it, influence its Taoist mind, or even destroy it."
Chu Yan was shocked. This was the first time he heard of such a thing.
But then, when he looked at Holy Emperor Hua Feng again, he felt that the other person's figure was more majestic.
Holy Emperor Hua Feng told him the origin of his Taoism, which meant that he was unsuspecting of him.
"Don't worry, with your current strength, you can't destroy the source of my Taoism." Immortal Emperor Hua Feng seemed to have seen through Chu Yan's heart and said with a smile.
Chu Yan laughed dryly, and then looked at the source of his Taoism. He felt embarrassed for a moment, and finally understood why Immortal Emperor Hua Feng looked weird before.
"Dean, so you say, the source of my orthodoxy?"
Immortal Emperor Hua Feng looked at Chu Yan with a gentler gaze and said with a smile: "You guessed it right, the source of your Taoism is not a certain thing or a certain area, but the whole world!"
"When the world is prosperous, you will be strong; when the world is declining, you will be destroyed."
"..." Chu Yan had a black line. Although he had the idea of expanding the Immortal Realm, and also thought about bringing peace to the world if possible, he never thought about being a savior. He is not that great, why is it so inexplicable?
, are you colluding with all the people in the world?
"The source of Taoism is the concrete representation of what is in your heart. You may not feel anything about it now, but some of your inadvertent actions prove that you are the kind of person who cares about the world."
"..." Chu Yan sighed, suddenly feeling that he deserved it.
He has indeed thought about this, but the avenue of life is too big and too far for him. He is still just an individual. What he wants to protect more is his friends.
"Thank you, senior, for clarifying my doubts today." Chu Yan bowed slightly. In any case, he had a deeper understanding of Taoism.
"It doesn't matter. Judging from the origin of your Taoism, you still have a long way to go. The road to practice is long. Everyone must have their own role. For example, I play the role of a teacher, preaching and being taught every day. This is me.
The foundation is very good." Holy Emperor Hua Feng said with a smile: "In a few days, it will be the anniversary celebration of the founding of Zizhu Academy. Many traveling students will return. Are you interested in giving a lecture then?"
"As long as the commander and the dean are here, I won't show off my shame." Chu Yan smiled and said, "But I will go when I have time."
"Okay, your reputation has been very good recently, and some students are competing with each other. Maybe some juniors will come to you to discuss and give me some guidance." Holy Emperor Hua Feng said with a smile, and Chu Yan rubbed it with a wry smile.
He rubbed his eyebrows, but still smiled and nodded.
Since Holy Emperor Hua Feng has said that Zizhu Academy is the origin of his Taoism, if he can help him strengthen Zizhu Academy, there may be a chance for Holy Emperor Hua Feng to break through the Immortal King and allow Zizhu Immortal Palace to enter the era of two kings, which would be a good thing.
.
Although the world has been stable in the past three years, and the two Immortal King Palaces did not take any action after the Cangshan Miracle, Chu Yan will not forget the hysterical roar of Donghua Immortal King when he left that day.
This grudge is only a matter of time.
——
Chu Yan's life remained as usual, practicing in the courtyard, going to the library to read, and occasionally serving as a lecturer to help some students answer their questions, which was dull but fulfilling.
Gradually, Chu Yan's name became more famous in Zizhu Academy, and many students respected and liked Chu Yan. Students in Chu Yan's classes were always full.
In class, Chu Yan is the preaching teacher, but in fact, Chu Yan and many students are not much different in age, more like peers, so they have a very good relationship in private.
But because of this, some students believe that Chu Yan is not worthy of being a teacher.
In Zizhu Academy, all the teachers are fifth-level saint emperors or above, including some commanders who hold academic appointments.
Among the students, there were also some second- and third-level Saint Emperor geniuses, but they looked down upon Chu Yan's courses.
Especially some people have heard that Chu Yan was just a weak Immortal Emperor in Cangshan Miracle three years ago, which is even less qualified to teach at Zizhu Academy. A peer of his generation who only broke through to the Holy Emperor a few years ago became a
They teach? How will they accept it?
On this day, in Chu Yan's class, just like in the past, there were many students sitting below, listening to Chu Yan's lecture.
It's more like communication than teaching. Chu Yan will take the initiative to share a lot of his own experience, and the students below will also take the initiative to ask some questions about practice. Chu Yan never tires of answering them one by one.
"I heard that Brother Chu came from Jiutian from the Lower Realm of Celestial Realm. It is rumored that in the Lower Realm of Celestial Realm, spiritual energy is weak and has no value for consideration. Strong men are also very rare. But is it true?" At this moment, there was a voice suddenly.
When it sounded, many students turned around and looked, slightly surprised.
"It's Senior Wuya." At this time, someone whispered: "I didn't expect that he would also come to Brother Chu's class."
Xu Wuya, like Chu Yan, is the second-stage Saint Emperor and one of the top geniuses in Zizhu Academy. It is precisely because of this that when he reaches his level, he rarely attends classes and spends most of his time traveling.
and self-realization.
Chu Yan raised his head and looked at Xu Wuya. Xu Wuya asked a question, but he didn't get up and remained seated.
After a moment, Chu Yan smiled and said: "It is true. The cultivation environment in the lower realm of immortality is very harsh and the resources are poor. There, an ordinary immortal emperor can create a sect's power and receive incense. The holy emperor is the supreme existence.
Well, as for comparing with Jiutian Shen 6, it’s so far behind that it’s not worth mentioning.”
Xu Wuya nodded, and then his eyes became slightly sharp: "In this case, Brother Chu, what qualifications does Brother Chu think he has to preach and teach us here?"
