Under the ancient tree, Xiao Yun listened to the First Old Man's sermons and occasionally participated in discussions, which benefited him a lot and gained a lot of insights.
Because the First Old Man has existed for so long, he will also discuss Taoism with other strong men in the Eternal Ruins, so he is involved in the cultivation system of the previous nine chaotic eras. In terms of broad vision, absolutely no one else
Comparable to him.
Perhaps the First Old Man may not have gone as far as Xiao Yun on the Eternal Avenue, but he has definitely gone further than Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun and the others should concentrate more and not get involved in other paths too much, but the strong men of Eternal Ruins are different. They have no chance to prove eternity, so naturally they don't mind getting involved in other paths.
.
The collision of thoughts from multiple paths has brought about many insights.
Xiao Yun and the First Old Man chatted for hundreds of years before they ended.
"There is nothing wrong with the path of the unity of ten thousand Daos. This has been proven for several times in the Chaos Era. It is just that we speculate that the unity of ten thousand Daos should only be the first half of the eternal road.
"The first old man said with emotion.
Xiao Yun nodded and discussed with the First Old Man. He became more and more convinced that the unity of all realms was correct, but the road to eternity was not just about the unity of all realms. He had not reached the end yet.
"There is a strong man in our contemporary generation who believes that the unity of all things is to be completely integrated into that 'one', regardless of each other.
"Xiao Yun said, this is Hongjun's point of view.
The first old man frowned and said: "This is too difficult, almost no one can do it.
"
"That's not necessarily the case. If you can really integrate the two Tao without distinguishing each other, find the key points, and then integrate the other Tao with a reference, it may be much easier.
"Xiao Yun muttered.
The first old man sighed: "Some people have tried this method, but no one has succeeded.
"
"Fellow Taoist, look at these two things!" Xiao Yun suddenly took out a ball of Taiyin Mother Fire and a ball of Sun Mother Water.
When the first old man saw these two objects, golden light burst out from his eyes. He said with a shocked look on his face: "Water and fire are extremely peaceful, the laws of the Great Dao are completely reversed, and there are such strange things in the world.
"
“This is what we, the sons of the Great Avenue of the Chaos Era, left behind after we failed to prove our way to enlightenment.
"Xiao Yun said.
Hearing this, the first old man's eyes suddenly condensed: "He is reminding the younger generation.
"
"Yes, it's just that we haven't understood it yet!" Xiao Yun said helplessly. Pangu had put the Eternal Avenue in front of them, but they still didn't understand it.
The First Old Man carefully looked at the Taiyin Mother Fire and the Sun Mother Water in front of him, and pondered: "Is he telling us that water and fire can transform into each other? If this is the case, then the two Tao must be completely melted before they can be derived.
The unity of all things.
"
"It is too difficult to completely integrate the two ways. I have seen in the Eternal Ruins that some people used the time and space method to prove eternity, but in the end they failed because of the conflict between time and space.
"Xiao Yun was talking about Li Kong.
The First Old Man nodded. He had known this for a long time. He sighed: "Two different ways can be perfectly combined, like time and space, like life and death, like water and fire... But if you want to completely separate them from each other,
Integration, for so many years, no one has succeeded.
"
"At least it's a direction!" Xiao Yun decided to give it a try and use time and space to integrate, which is what he is good at.
…
After bidding farewell to the First Old Man, Xiao Yun did not continue to stay in the Eternal Ruins, as there was not much use here for him.
After saying hello to Zhang Xiaofan and the others, Xiao Yun left the Eternal Ruins and returned to the Kendo Universe.
"Xiao Yun, you're back too!" Dou Sheng had come back a long time ago. When he learned that Xiao Yun was back, he rushed over immediately.
Not long after, the gray-robed realm master also came over. The two of them had a lonely time in the Eternal Ruins. Now that they saw Xiao Yun coming back, they naturally hoped to learn from Xiao Yun.
"Hui Pao, how is your physical training?" Xiao Yun looked at the Gray Pao Realm Master and asked with a smile while making tea.
"What kind of tea? Just smelling it makes my old grandson shake!" Dou Sheng stared at the tea leaves Xiao Yun took out, and his eyes could not help but shine.
Xiao Yun secretly laughed, this is the tea given to him by the First Old Man, which has given birth to nine chaotic eras, is it okay?
The gray-robed realm master did not pay attention to the tea. When he heard Xiao Yun's inquiry, he said helplessly: "The time is too short. Although my physical body has improved, it can only barely meet the standards of the realm master."
.
"
He also learned the importance of the physical body from the Eternal Ruins before, and has been sharpening the physical body, but this thing cannot be improved in a short time.
"Your body is too weak, and you are destined to never realize eternity in this life.
"Dou Sheng patted the gray-robed Realm Master on the shoulder, then picked up a cup of tea without ceremony and drank it in one gulp.
After drinking the tea, Dou Sheng's eyes brightened even more. He looked at the cup of tea that Xiao Yun pushed to the Gray Robe World Master next to him, and couldn't help but said: "This tea is not good at all. Gray Robe, it's me, Old Sun, who will take the place."
You drink it.
"
After saying this, Dou Sheng was about to stretch out his hand.
"Go away! Do you think I'm an idiot?" The gray-robed realm master glared at Dou Sheng, picked up the teacup at a very fast speed, drank it all in one gulp, and then made a pleasant sound.
Dou Sheng looked at this scene with some regret, and then looked at Xiao Yun expectantly.
Xiao Yun said angrily: "Don't look at it, I don't have much tea. Besides, drinking too much will not have any effect on you. One cup is enough.
"
"Tch, stingy!" Dou Sheng snorted.
Xiao Yun smiled and said: "This is given to me by a Banbu Eternal named 'First Old Man' at the core of the Eternal Ruins. If you have the ability, go to the core to ask him for it.
"
"You know very well that I, Old Sun, can't get in!" Dou Sheng curled his lips angrily upon hearing this.
"This is really good tea, I feel like my soul has been completely cleansed.
"At this moment, the gray-robed Realm Master slowly opened his eyes, his face full of joy.
He is a spiritual person, so he naturally knows how great this cup of tea can be on the soul.
"Okay, you can go and sigh.
Xiao Yun, what did you gain in the Eternal Ruins? Give us some advice.
"Dou Sheng said seriously.
Xiao Yun put down his tea cup and muttered: "I speculate that the road to eternity is divided into two parts. The first half is the unification of ten thousand ways. This step has a high accuracy rate. The previous few powerful men in the Chaos Era have already determined it.
But the second half is a bit controversial. I think it is the complete integration of all the ways into the "one", truly indistinguishable from each other.
"
"Isn't this what the old man Hongjun said?" Dou Sheng frowned.
Xiao Yun nodded and said: "This means that Hongjun is probably going in the right direction, but I don't know how far this old guy has gone.
"
"I have to say that this old guy is still very powerful. He can prove eternity, so it's not surprising to me.
"Dou Sheng sighed.
Although he was very unhappy with Hongjun, he had to admit how powerful Hongjun was.
"This is just your speculation, and it may not be correct.
"The gray-robed world leader said that he did not want to believe Xiao Yun's reasoning because he concentrated on walking the spiritual path. If he was asked to integrate other paths at this time, it would be an impossible amount of work.
"That's right. We are all groping forward, and no one is sure who is right.
"Xiao Yun nodded, but he didn't mock the gray-robed realm master. Everyone was just groping forward.
