In the central area of Mahogany Island is the huge mangrove tree. Under the mangrove tree, many monks are gathering around, listening to an old man with green hair and red clothes preach.
"Everything in the world has its own natural truth. This truth can be distorted, but it cannot be overturned. Instead of distorting it and chasing the wrong goal, it is better to stick to it quietly and let it grow naturally."
The old man spoke very slowly, and seemed to have to carefully consider every word before speaking. However, the monks listening around him were all attentive and did not look anxious at all. I wonder if it is because of their high cultivation? Or they are used to the old man.
This preaching rhythm?
When Wu Jie came over, he heard the old man say: "...the so-called practice is actually to keep an open mind and keep silence. Silence is the best thing in the world. If the body is quiet, it will not be easy to age, and if the soul is quiet, it will not be easy to be confused. Finally,
The simplest and most reliable method of cultivation is to find a place that suits you and calm your mind."
"In this state, your body will naturally absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and increase your cultivation; your soul will also slowly grow in communication with nature... Indeed, this speed is not fast, but for us
That said, time has never been a problem. As long as we can find the right direction, so what if we waste more time? It doesn't matter."
Only then did Wu Jie notice that the monks sitting around the old man listening to the lecture were all exuding the aura of plants and trees, and they were all spirited by plants and trees.
The elves of grass and trees have long lifespans, and theoretically there is almost no "exhaustion of Yang life". For them, the greatest risk of death comes from natural disasters and man-made disasters. Natural disasters are mainly the obsessions that may be encountered in the process of cultivation, and man-made disasters are mainly
It's those greedy evil monks... It takes decades or hundreds of years for a big tree to grow, but it only takes a moment to be cut down and burned. Compared to the long years it takes to grow, it's almost an instant.
matter.
"I have long heard that this senior Hongfang preaches in addition to practicing, but I didn't expect that he actually preaches this kind of Tao." Wu Jie smiled at Jasmine and said, "Although this natural Tao is righteous and peaceful, it is the Tao of cultivation.
The speed is really too slow, even among Xuanmen not many people will practice it."
"Anyway, he has a long lifespan. He just cultivates slowly." Jasmine also smiled, "I remember that back then, there was an old man named Hongmeng, the God of Creation. His body was a big tree that was born when the ancestor of the Desolate God opened up the wilderness world. That was really among the seniors.
A senior, a super senior. Even you, master, were very polite to him back then."
"How old is that senior?" Wu Jie asked curiously.
"Who knows? He didn't even remember it himself. Someone once asked him, and he thought for a while and said, 'I attained enlightenment relatively late. I only remember that during the time when I first realized creation, the Big Dipper appeared in the sky...the Big Dipper appeared.
It probably refers to Beidou Shenjun’s soul becoming immortal and opening up the world of Beidou. Beidou Shenjun is already a senior who precedes you, Master..."
"As expected, he is indeed an old man from Hongmeng," Wu Jie praised, "If I have a chance, I will also go and pay homage to this senior."
"It's not difficult to find him. He lives in the Great Wilderness. Although it has been so long, he must still be famous. As long as you, Master, become the True Monarch of Dongxu, you can use your magical powers to travel through space. With the help of some already set
The space node will soon reach the 'Big Tree World' he opened up."
"Big tree world?"
"Well, the big tree world is the dojo of Old Man Hongmeng. It is a world built on huge trees. The branches of the big tree are the avenues that stabilize the world, and the leaves are small worlds with branches... small worlds such as the Kyushu World
The world is probably equivalent to a leaf in the world of a big tree."
"...How big is the big tree world?"
"I really can't answer this question. Master, if you have a chance in the future, you can see it with your own eyes and you will know."
While the two were chatting, another monk among the monks who was listening stood up and asked respectfully: "Teacher, I always feel that my cultivation has reached a bottleneck recently, and I haven't seen any growth for several months. Is this right?"
What method do I need to find to overcome the barrier?”
When Wu Jie heard this, he glanced around and saw that this man was at the level of the Great Perfection in his cultivation, and could condense the golden elixir at any time. The methods for condensing the golden elixir in the Penglai sea area were nothing more than borrowing elixirs, refining elixirs, and induction into elixirs.
Based on the natural way that Hong Fang talks about, is it possible that we can only take the path of induction into elixirs?
That's really not easy...
Hong Fang smiled slightly and said: "What is the golden elixir? It is called gold when it is strong and never deteriorates, and it is called elixir when it is perfect, bright, pure and without loss. The golden elixir is actually the nature of the original, enlightened and true spirit. Ask yourself and seek the truth.
Of
Is the mind strong? Is the thought of establishing oneself perfect? If there are all kinds of hardships and hardships, how is your way? If there are all kinds of grievances and entanglements, what are your thoughts? Once you have figured out these problems, the golden elixir will naturally be achieved."
The man's face was blank when he heard it, his mouth was opened wide, he didn't know what to say, and he just stood there blankly.
After hearing this, Wu Jie couldn't help but his eyes lit up and his heart was slightly shocked.
What this senior from the red side said is not the method of achieving the three golden elixirs in the Penglai Sea. Instead, it is similar to the method of finding the true heart to return the elixir in the Kyushu world. Although this method is difficult, it is a truly brilliant method, and the achievements in the future will be limitless.
But...if Hong Fang is already promoting this method of enlightening one's original mind and becoming an elixir in his daily sermons, why is it not spread in the Penglai sea area?
At this moment, someone else asked: "Teacher, when my soul is warming up, I always feel that my body is heavy and my soul is pressed down and cannot move. I am very depressed. Please give me some advice."
"The physical body is heavy, so don't use it." Hong Fang said with a smile, "Reappear your true form and take root in the spiritual veins of the earth, but you are not allowed to absorb spiritual energy deliberately. You can only feel the flow of spiritual energy in and out every day, and carefully figure it out.
When such merit is achieved, the soul will naturally condense into a Yin Shen."
Wu Jie was shocked again - this statement was slightly corroborated by his own situation. Although it was not as rich as his own, it was still an upright and upright method, and it was definitely not comparable to those side methods.
"I dare to ask teacher, I was walking outside the other day and saw that the outside sects have practiced to the extreme of Yin Shen. They all try to figure out their own skills and create magical powers. I don't know what the magical powers and appearances of our sect are?" Someone else asked.
The red party laughed loudly: "Why do you ask me about your magical power and appearance? If you want to achieve your magical power and appearance, you must extinguish your magical power, be spiritual inside, and feel comfortable outside. Your heart can shine like a bright moon, and your soul can be as solid as the earth.
He was moving across the sea, but I remained unmoved. As time went by, my magical power and spiritual induction naturally condensed into Dharma."
"...How long will it take?"
"I am old and incapable of talent. It took me 13,600 years to condense the Dharma." Hong Fang smiled slightly and said slowly, "We, the grass and trees, are born to be blessed by heaven and have a long life. When we practice Taoism, we naturally
The speed is also slow
.This is the principle of balance between heaven and earth, how can it be a fluke? You have only practiced for more than ten thousand years, and you have become a Yin Shen, which is already extremely fast. But the way of heaven is easy to return, and this law is related to you, but you have to pay back the advantages you took advantage of before.
That’s all.”
After hearing what Hong Fang said, all the disciples looked at each other and sighed.
Although what he said is correct, the thought of having to practice patiently for a long time really makes people lose their energy.
Red Fang continued to lecture for a while, but when he saw that the disciples were not interested, he announced that the lecture was over and everyone went to practice on their own. If there were any obstacles, he would give the lecture again a hundred years later.
"Hey, this old man has to wait a hundred years for one lecture." Wu Jie was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It's just grass and trees, and flesh and blood like us can only become Yin gods.
If you live for two thousand years, and then consider the time spent on cultivation... wouldn't it mean that you should die of old age after listening to his lectures for more than ten times?"
"He just talks to the grass and trees and the like. He is the leader of the grass and trees spirit in Penglai, so what does it have to do with others?" Jasmine said with a smile, "He has no friendship with other families, so allowing others to listen is a great favor.
How could you expect more?"
Wu Jie couldn't help but smile - Jasmine was right. Red allowed monks outside the grass and trees to attend the lecture, which was already an incredible favor. To expect more people would be really greedy.
After everyone dispersed, he straightened his clothes, stepped forward, and saluted the red party.
"After learning from Feizi, I pay my respects to my seniors"
Hong Fang smiled and nodded, but there was no sign of surprise: "Wu Zhifei, you seemed to have learned something from my lecture just now. Can you tell me what you learned?"
"I don't dare to talk about my gains. I just verified it with my own cultivation and found it very interesting."
"I see that your cultivation is that you have taken the road of confirming your true heart in ancient times. This road is difficult and difficult. Not one of a thousand seekers may be able to make it. Later, it was gradually abandoned. So far, there are only we, grass and trees.
I'm still looking for you. I heard that you are the reincarnation of an ancient monk. Could this be the reason for this?
Wu Jie raised his eyebrows: "What do you think, senior?"
"Why should I think that, in the Penglai sea area for more than 100,000 years, I have known every Dharma and Taoist friend, but I don't remember meeting people like you. I also know a little bit about reincarnation, and there is no difference.
This is the truth that has existed for more than 100,000 years." The red party directly exposed the story fabricated by Wu Jie, "You are not the reincarnation of a senior monk at all - if I guessed correctly, you are probably a monk from the outside world who ended up here for some reason.
."
Wu Jie's origins were exposed, but he was not surprised or upset. He just nodded with a smile and praised, "Senior is really smart."
"Fellow Daoist Wu, you are a monk from the outside world. You don't know what it is like outside of Penglai?" Hong Fang perked up and asked.
"Besides Penglai, there are mountains and seas. There are many worlds, and there are mountains and seas." Wu Jie said with a smile, but there was a hint of agility in his words.
When Hong Fang heard this, he was stunned for a long time before he laughed dumbly.
"Except Penglai, there are mountains and seas. No matter how many worlds there are, there are only mountains and seas in the end." He stood up and bowed to Wu Jie, "The old man prides himself on being wise. He thinks that he has accumulated years and thoughts.
I am thorough, but I have never seen through this little thing. Today, my Taoist friend gave me some help, and it is of course like waking up from a big dream. Thank you very much."
The two talked for a long time, and it turned out that the red party was indeed an old man who had lived for more than 100,000 years, and his knowledge was beyond imagination. Wu Jie learned a lot about the Immortals Association from him, especially about Weiming.
The old man's information is even more precious.
The red side got another road leading to the great road, which is enough to corroborate his natural way. Compared with Wu Jie, it is unclear who got more.
This conversation was really too late. We only talked about the rising and setting of the moon and the rise of the morning sun before Hong Fang laughed with satisfaction: "Fellow Daoist Wu, I heard that you killed Lang Ziqing and had an affair with Wu Yazi.
, Layman Lingming has fought against each other one by one, and he will have to deal with Weiming in the future... If I have free time today, you and I might as well fight against each other, how about it?"
Wu Jie also laughed: "I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask for my ear."
