Chapter 236: Seeking the Way and giving up like iron (two-in-one chapter)
After using the "Infinite Big Hand Seal" to block Shi Xuan's sword in time, the tall, majestic and majestic God Emperor's golden robe automatically moved without wind. He smiled in his heart and said: "It is true that you are an extremely talented swordsman, but just by virtue of
A sword that can defeat all swordsmanship and a ninth-level celestial skill dare to attack the door. It is really audacious. It is unreasonable for a monk who has fallen into the decline of Taoist heart."
As early as when Shi Xuan distorted time and space and reached beyond the vast world, the God Emperor had a chance to take action, but he was cautious and still allowed Shi Xuan to slash out with his sword. In this way, he was passively defensive.
Although Shi Xuan suffered a small loss due to Shi Xuan's unexpected sword attack, which damaged his Taoism for more than a hundred years, it was not harmful to the God Emperor. Next, the hidden dangers can be eliminated in one fell swoop!
"Today, I will let you truly see what a Half-Step Golden Immortal is. It is definitely not something you can imagine after relying on the residual image of the Zhuxian Sword Formation and other external objects to resist it for a while!"
The golden wish power treasure light behind the head of the God Emperor bloomed rapidly, and the glazed light was shining brightly, illuminating the whole world. Its hanging golden light flowed like a water curtain in front of the eaves, and contained countless floating and sinking things.
The golden lamps lit up one by one, like the lights of thousands of houses, and like the signposts guiding believers in the majestic Kingdom of God.
These rays of light merged into a glazed light with bursts of ethereal and far-reaching aura, and billions of gods spread throughout it, covering everything and hitting Shi Xuan.
It seems to flow through endless darkness, but in fact it directly penetrates through the layers of time and space, appearing around Shixuan. Wherever it passes, everything is joyful, enlightened, and sincerely converted, even the laws of heaven and earth. Even time,
space.
The Great Purifying Divine Light can transform everything, guide all sentient beings, and transcend to the other side!
But just before the Great Purdue Divine Light blocked the nearby space and time, the white dim sword light that could defeat all magic suddenly disappeared, and Shi Xuan also lit up a majestic and bright purple thunder light, with a terrifying aura. He resisted.
The pressure of the God Emperor instantly enveloped Shi Xuan, tearing open the space barrier and moving towards the wild area at the edge of the universe.
Its speed was so fast that it was at the level of a Half-Step Golden Immortal. Many Half-Step Golden Immortals who were staring at this place immediately lost sight of Shi Xuan. Only Emperor Fengdu, Emperor Jiuzang, and Emperor Youhai had long known that Shi Xuan had something on him.
With such a door that marked the time and space, I was able to trace the place where Shi Xuan escaped after being prepared.
The God Emperor's majestic and solemn face revealed a hint of smile: "Want to escape?"
The Dao Lord watching the battle may not be able to track where Shi Xuan fled, but after the fight just now, the God Emperor firmly locked onto Shi Xuan's aura, and even in an instant, it moved to somewhere in the wild area of the vast world.
The soul of the God-Emperor is reflected inside.
The God Emperor did not dare to neglect. At this time, normally speaking, with his half-step Golden Immortal realm, he did not even need to leave his own world, he could directly distort time and space and cross the boundary to shoot the Great Purdue Divine Light. But he
Knowing that Shi Xuan has an innate spiritual object on his body, it can conceal the secrets of heaven and get rid of the lock of the Half-Step Golden Immortal. If you are not careful, Shi Xuan will escape and the world will be vast.
And with such a blow today, Shi Xuan is likely to completely trigger the decline of Taoist heart in a short period of time. By then, he will become a half-step golden immortal, which will be very troublesome.
The God-Emperor, who had already stood up, took a step forward. Time and space were distorted in front of him, rippling like water waves.
"Even if you, Shi Xuan, are ambushed, I still have a few Dao Lords to help you! Even if you have a Dao Ancestor background, the teacher will never ignore you at this time!"
A man of great skill is bold. The God-Emperor walked out of the distorted time and space and saw a vast world that was not at its peak. At this time, Shi Xuan had already activated the beacon gate of time and space. Purple thunder shined, breaking through the sky and heading directly into the universe.
Move and escape somewhere else on the edge of the wilderness.
The God Emperor took his time and calmly distorted the time and space in front of him again. How about you having a time and space guide blessed by the Half-Step Golden Immortal? I am a genuine Half-Step Golden Immortal. How can I still not catch up with you?!
Moreover, this kind of time-space beacon gate blessed by others can only imprint a time-space beacon on both sides of the door. You must calm down before you can change it. Since the two locations of Shi Xuan's back and forth have been determined, how can the God Emperor do it?
Worried about not being able to catch up with him.
"Hey, Penglai Lower Courtyard, it turns out that this is the secret foundation of Penglai Sect." Before stepping into the water-like distortion of time and space, the God Emperor's immortal consciousness just casually scanned and discovered part of the mystery of this world. This is where the Seven Immortals are.
Big world!
But the God-Emperor did not directly kill him. The most important thing was to chase Shi Xuan at this time. The rest will be discussed later. After the nest is overthrown, how can the eggs be completed?
The place Shi Xuan wanted to move to by triggering the Time Beacon Gate was the Great Thousand World where Yuji Cauldron was located. After two moves, the God Emperor's vigilance could be slightly relieved.
Only in the Yuji Cauldron can one directly use the Hunyuan Jindou, the innate end-luck Tao embryo, with peace of mind, without fear of being discovered by the Tao ancestors.
Although this would expose the location of Yuji Cauldron, the original Karma Oath did not include the content of not being able to take refuge in Yuji Cauldron when being hunted, and even if Dao Ancestor discovered Yuji Cauldron, he wanted to
Through the barrier of the innate universe's spiritual beings, it takes time to see the situation inside, or it takes time to come down directly and enter it.
And what Shi Xuan wants is just this short time difference!
If the power of the innate bad luck path is consistent with one's own practice, it is equivalent to the level of a half-step golden immortal who has witnessed the practice of heretics.
The "Baolu" deduced and perfected by the Lord of Creation happens to contain the Dao of Dou Luck. Shi Xuan himself has also witnessed part of the true meaning of the innate Dao of Dou Luck. After several years of sacrifice and mastery, it is enough to bring out the Hunyuan Golden Dou Qi.
Eighty percent of the power, even if it does not reach the level of heretic performance, is still at the level of Taoist perfection.
Shi Xuan remembered that Mo Jingqiu said that Hunyuan Jindou was the nemesis of all powers. If his strength was not at the same level, there would be no resistance at all.
And the God Emperor is just a half-step golden immortal whose Dao foundation has not yet been perfected!
When the Taoist ancestors lowered their thoughts or came in directly, Shi Xuan was 90% sure that he had cut the God Emperor into a heavenly king and killed him with one sword, so that he would not worry about the bad luck Taoist fetus being exposed to the eyes of the Taoist ancestors.
After being activated by the time and space beacon blessed by the Half-Step Golden Immortal, it was very fast. In just an instant, Shi Xuan sensed the vast world where Yuji Cauldron was located.
But at this moment, an ethereal moral aura suddenly appeared in Shi Xuan's Yuanshen, which contained thousands of avenues and taught all living beings to realize transcendence. Shi Xuan's Taoist heart was clear again, and there seemed to be something in his mirror-like mind.
What thick invisible dust was swept away by it.
There is nothing in the first place, so how can it be stained with dust?
"Tao Te Ching?" Shi Xuan was shocked. The "Tao Te Ching", the secret treasure of the fifth tribulation of the fifth decline of heaven and man, which was refined based on "Bao Lu", actually activated at this time. Doesn't it mean that he is already in the true state of the decline of Taoism?
The moment of explosion!
Shi Xuan's Taoist heart, which he always thought was as transparent as a bright mirror, became truly crystal clear at this time, reflecting everything.
"There is a residual illusion of Taixu in the Yuji Cauldron. It reflects the phantoms of the Avenue of Doom and Fortune, the Golden Dou of Hunyuan and so on. As long as the Taoist ancestor discovers it, how could he not think that the innate Taoist embryo of doom and misfortune is in the Yuji Cauldron. In this way, if
They couldn't guess that Hunyuan Jindou was in me, and relied on this to kill the God Emperor. That would be a disgrace to their status as the Golden Immortal Taoist!"
"Even if they didn't discover Taixu Illusion, just a few years after I invited Mo Jingqiu of Sanxiao Palace to visit Taiyuan Heaven, they had witnessed the true meaning of the Great Path of Innate Moulun, and had mastered the art of defeating all magic with one sword.
Swordsmanship will cause a lot of doubts, coupled with the exposure of Yujiding, how could the Taoist ancestors not think of the cause and effect!"
"If the previous suspicions are due to the fact that I am a Tao Ancestor chess piece with comparable strength, they still need to be confirmed through trials. Once they see Yuji Ding, the Tao Ancestors will no longer have any doubts. I am afraid that another Golden Immortal War will break out. Even
Even the Taoist ancestors of life and death who are on my side may take action against me!"
"And the Yuji Cauldron, the Taixu Taoist, and the Five Elements Taoist may be angry!"
"This plan seems to be thorough, but in fact it is full of loopholes. Even if it can kill the God Emperor, Hunyuan Jindou and his own life will not be guaranteed!"
"Sure enough, it is a failure of Taoism. I have always been cautious and thoughtful, but I was so careless and made so many omissions!"
All kinds of thoughts flashed in Shi Xuan's soul like lightning, making Shi Xuan understand that he had really fallen into the decline of Taoist heart, and that the real explosion was about to come.
"What to do next?"
There is no Taoist book or classic that records how to face the complete eruption of Taoist heart failure. Shi Xuan can only guard his mind and visualize the pure natural moral heavenly king. The Tai Chi diagram turns into the golden bridge on the other side to suppress Yuan.
god.
"Wait a minute." A thought suddenly popped up in Shi Xuan's mind, "The Five Elements Taoist Patriarch has been to Yuji Cauldron, and also to the Taixu Illusion Realm. How could he not guess that there is an innate misfortune Taoist fetus in Yuji Cauldron?
Even if he is searching slowly, he should have searched all the worlds in the Yuji Cauldron for hundreds of thousands of years, so why is the Hunyuan Golden Dou left in its original place? The Five Elements can combine with the opposite Tao of Mo Luck!"
"Similar to him is Taixu Daozu!"
"Why didn't they just wipe out the Taixu Illusion Realm?! Why did the Five Elements Taoist Patriarch use the five-color divine light at that time?!"
"Why haven't Jingqiu, Xuanxiao, I, and I thought about such an obvious problem all this time? Is it because the Five Elements and Taixu Daozu have blinded our minds, or is there another reason?"
All these things, it was too late to say, but soon, Shi Xuan found that his mind suddenly fell into a dark and illusory world, with little lights flickering everywhere, but Shi Xuan could no longer sense things other than the soul.
, and the God Emperor who is about to catch up.
The incarnation of Shi Xuan's consciousness was located in the middle of this dark world. He suppressed all his doubts about the Five Elements Taoist ancestors, looked around, and thought to himself: "Is this the inner imprisonment caused by the decline of the Taoist heart?"
At this point, Shi Xuan no longer worried about whether the God Emperor was catching up with him, or whether he was about to fall into madness outside. He calmed down his mind and concentrated on this inexplicable place. Moreover, Shi Xuan had a clear understanding. This place was probably going to be the same environment for a thousand years.
, if you can break out, you will overcome the decline of Taoist heart and become a half-step golden immortal. If you can't break out, you will completely fall into madness until your body dies and the Tao disappears.
The little bit of flickering light became brighter and brighter, and a scene emerged in every bit of light.
Shi Xuan looked closely and was shocked to find that every scene in these lights was something he had experienced before:
Without deliberately pursuing it, I got the "Diamond Glazed Immortal Talisman".
Without relying on external objects, he survived two heavenly tribulations and developed the divine light of the Yin-Yang Mixed Cave.
True to his original intention, he returned to Yu Yutian and almost killed the Blood Shadow Lord.
Then relying on the "Vajra Glaze Immortal Talisman" and the magic weapon that Jiang Zhenren and his apprentice Chu Wan'er found for themselves, they survived the Nine Fires Burning Heart Tribulation.
He controlled himself. He was not fooled by the Four Tribulation Heavenly Treasures of Zuo Sheng Emperor's robe and the identity of the Lord of Nine Nethers. He firmly left the world of Nine Nethers and touched a trace of the essence of Yin-Yang Avenue.
…
Before he finished reading, Shi Xuan was shocked, and many pictures emerged in his heart.
In order to survive the catastrophe of the decline of heaven and man, the heavenly king resolutely sacrificed blood to the small thousand worlds and all the living creatures in them. As a result, he became the nourishment of the Taoist ancestor of death.
For the sake of meritorious deeds, the real Yuanshen joined the ranks of unifying the world, regardless of whether he liked it or not. They fought day and night, ferocious and terrifying, not like the authentic Yuanshen of the Taoist sect. Instead, they looked like the real people of the demonic path.
Those real people and true kings who often go down to caves and enter cave heavens to fight to the death for the secret treasures and secret techniques to overcome tribulations, forgetting to sharpen the original intention of Taoism.
In order to survive the decline of longevity, the heavenly king lived in the market outside the chaos and wilderness, giving up his freedom and living like a fly and a dog. He "used his heart as a slave, and was ridiculed and sad alone"... the fourth and ninth tribulations. Heavenly Man The five declines are like the Great Thousand World, the Void Universe, and the Three Thousand Avenues. In order to block the progress of monks like us, the enemies sent by them are naturally used in any way when facing the enemy. Secret techniques, secret treasures, magical treasures, and spiritual treasures. All are possible, but when you are in it and moving forward step by step, it is easy to make mistakes and forget that killing the enemy is a process, not the goal. The only way is to understand the road clearly and stay close to it. Once you fall into the kind of situation where you are trying to overcome the disaster. As for the mentality of overcoming tribulation, I am afraid that it is difficult to overcome the fifth decline of heaven and man, let alone become true to the Tao."
"You are making rapid progress along the way. You need to control yourself and stick to your heart. You would rather be slower and more dangerous than overcoming calamities just for the sake of overcoming calamities."
Master Mo Yuan's words, as well as his little bits of enlightenment over the past thousands of years, and the harvest gained from meditating on the newly opened world for thousands of years, seemed to have opened up a barrier, and suddenly merged in Shi Xuan's mind.
Many things that were incomprehensible and incomprehensible were immediately made clear to Shi Xuan.
"It turns out that the true decline of Taoist heart begins to come quietly after the attainment of Yuanshen. The test is whether we can stick to ourselves and control ourselves in the face of numerous catastrophes, the obstacles of decline, countless roads, and the temptation of precious things. nature."
"No wonder the decline of Taoist heart is so illusory and difficult!"
"No wonder so many real people, true kings, have not yet passed the decline of longevity, and they seem to have fallen into the decline of Taoism."
"Once on this road, you are afraid of the difficulties and cannot withstand the temptation, the Taoist heart will quietly decline, accumulating over time, until you have passed the decline of longevity, it will immediately and silently trigger and accelerate the decline of the Taoist heart, etc. Once it breaks out completely, it will be difficult to recover!”
What is the decline of the Taoist heart? This is the decline of the Taoist heart!
"Stand firm on the path, achieve the golden elixir, understand the mind and nature, see the soul, control the original heart, and overcome the decline of the Tao heart. These are the three realms of Tao heart cultivation!"
Shi Xuan fell into this deep shock. While alert, he saw those rays of light flying towards him bit by bit, and continued to show scenes after scenes, as if he was torturing his Taoist heart:
"Pass down the skills to teach and educate all living beings, and gain the aura of merit and virtue. Only when you put in the effort will you gain something, benefiting others and yourself."
"In the fourth heavenly tribulation, we faced the difficulties and never used any secret treasures or secret techniques except the Xuanhuang Pagoda."
"To help Meng Nishang, I entered the cave in the Yuangui Xuan Ice Mirror and survived nine deaths. It is not against my nature."
"Stealing the cultivation method of the Liangyi Dao-Destroying Sword and exchanging it equally does not go against one's nature."
"The first decline of heavenly beings relies on deep accumulation to get through it. Even the secret skills are practiced in accordance with one's own heart. They have taken care of Gu Canghai, Wei Peining and so on for a long time."
"In the secret cave of time, every step is difficult and dangerous, but he never goes against his nature. Killing Shi Jingren was also because he refused to let himself go."
"The second decline of heavenly beings, relying on witnessing the true meaning of the Yin-Yang Avenue to survive, without using secret treasures or secret techniques."
"To survive the third decline of heaven and man, I relied on deep accumulation and the secret treasure of transcending tribulations that I obtained from Shi Jingren. It did not go against my original intention."
"In the land of the end of the Dharma, faced with the temptation of the innate misfortune of Taoism, faced with the temptation of reaching the sky in one step, I did not violate my true heart, did not do anything behind my back, and deceived my soul."
"The secret technique of overcoming the tribulation of the fourth weakest person in heaven is to sharpen one's Taoist heart as the main purpose, and at the same time, it can be successfully practiced. It does not violate the original intention!"
…
Scenes of the past tortured Tao's heart, and these rays of light turned into a loud voice that shocked the soul:
"When you step into this path, you will often suffer unbearable pain, you will often feel lonely and helpless, and you will often die on the roadside without being heard of. It is beyond the power of human beings. Can you control your original intention?"
"When you step into this path, you will often be criticized. The world will humiliate you, scold you, belittle you, despise you. Friends will doubt you, slander you, and treat you as an alien. No one will walk with you. Can you control your true heart?"
"When you step into this path, you are often tempted. There are all kinds of simple and easy methods, and there are countless treasures that can help you reach the sky in one step. With all these things, can you control your original intention?"
Faced with this, Shi Xuan fully understood:
"'The trouble of practicing lies in oneself', 'Keep your original mind and stick to yourself'. These great principles recorded in Taoist books by our predecessors and sages clearly explain the key to overcoming the decline of Taoist heart. It seems simple.
Shan is extremely ordinary and everyone understands it, but how many monks can persevere to the end?"
When monks who are obviously inferior to you catch up with or surpass you in realm, can you hold on to your original intention?
The road ahead is difficult and dangerous, and there is a narrow escape from death. You have to go against your nature to have greater hope of getting through. Can you hold on to your heart?
When all kinds of temptations are placed in front of you, there are many shortcuts and smooth roads, and there is no shortage of keys to the straight road, can you control your true heart?
When the forty-ninth calamity, the five declines of gods and humans, come one after another, there is no way to escape it. You have just lived forever and are about to die. Can you control your original heart?!
When there is a path, as long as you stick to it, strengthen yourself, and be consistent, you will have a lot of hope of success. Can you hold on to your heart? If this path is difficult and tempting at every step, the hope of success seems to be out of reach.
, can you keep your heart in check?!
There are countless roads, countless difficulties, and countless temptations in life. Can you stay firm on the path, stick to yourself, and stick to your heart?
Can you?!
Shi Xuan smiled slightly and took a step forward, all the past events echoing in his heart.
The floating clouds cover the moon, but my eyes are not covered, and my heart is as strong as iron even if I die in pursuit of the truth!
Thousands of temptations and all kinds of difficulties, I will stick to my true intention and cut them off with one sword!
Suddenly, the Taoist heart was like a bright moon, and the Jade Rabbit rose to the east and illuminated thousands of people. The entire dark and empty world seemed to be completely illuminated by Shi Xuan.
Only those with great perseverance, great wisdom, and great determination can achieve great freedom, great freedom, and great liberation! (To be continued)
