The four masters and disciples of Xuanzang were dining in the wind and sleeping in the water. After walking for a long time, a towering mountain suddenly blocked their way.
I saw that the mountain was extremely high and majestic, with its roots connected to the Kunlun veins and its top touching the sky in Hanzhong. It was a truly blessed land of immortal mountains, and Penglai Langyuan was just like this.
When Xuanzang saw the ethereal aura of the mountain and the overwhelming fairy aura, he thought it was the Western Heaven Lingshan. He quickly arranged his appearance and prepared to go to Daleiyin Temple to pay homage to the World-Honored Tathagata.
Incarnate as Wukong, he traveled westward for a thousand miles, but now he has only walked a tenth of it, and he is still far from reaching Lingshan Mountain!
Although the mountain was visible from a distance, Xuanzang and his disciples finally arrived at the foot of the mountain after walking for three days.
With the mist lingering, the mountains look more and more beautiful. At first glance, they look like a fairyland, a blessed land, or the residence of an immortal saint.
Between the thin clouds and mist, a simple Taoist temple is vaguely visible on the mountainside. A stone tablet stands there, and the three Taoist patterns of Wanshou Mountain are clearly visible.
Bajie and Sha Seng were originally heavenly immortals, so they naturally knew about the Wuzhuang Temple in Wanshou Mountain and the great reputation of Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earthly immortals.
However, although the incarnation of Wukong has great magical powers, he knows very little about the powerful people of the three realms and does not know the terrifying deeds of this Zhenyuan Immortal.
I saw the incarnation of Wukong staring at the stone tablet and praising: "So this mountain is called Longevity Mountain, and it is indeed a good place to live!"
After a pause, the incarnation of Wukong turned to look at Xuanzang and shouted: "Master, we have been traveling for so long, why don't we take a rest here? This Taoist temple of my old Sun is full of fairy spirit, and I don't think there will be any monsters causing trouble."
Hearing this, Xuanzang nodded slightly and said, "Listening to what you said, I'm really a little tired as a teacher. In this case, let's take a break here."
Master Xuanzang and his disciples walked straight to the mountainside along the bluestone steps. After half an hour, they arrived in front of a simple Taoist temple.
The eyes of the four masters and disciples naturally fell on the couplets on both sides of the Taoist temple gate: Immortal Immortal Palace, Taoist Family Lives as Long as Heaven.
The incarnation of Wukong couldn't help curling his lips and chuckled: "This one is very arrogant. My old grandson also claims to be immortal. This one actually dares to say that he will live as long as heaven!"
When Bajie and Sha Monk heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly laughed in his heart that Wukong was so ignorant that he didn't even know about Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of the earthly immortals.
Just after hearing a creak, the closed door slowly opened, and the figures of two Taoist boys slowly emerged. They were Qingfeng and Mingyue.
In this breeze, Mingyue was ordered by Zhen Yuanzi to play two ginseng fruits to entertain Xuanzang. In Xuanzang's previous life, Jin Chanzi had served Zhen Yuanzi a cup of tea at the Buddha's Bon Basin, so he was considered an old friend.
The breeze and the bright moon welcomed Master Xuanzang and his disciples into the temple, and they offered two ginseng fruits to Xuanzang. However, Xuanzang had mortal eyes and could not recognize immortal treasures. Seeing that the ginseng fruits looked like babies under one month old, he kept putting off eating them.
.
Qingfeng and Mingyue saw that Xuanzang did not know the goods, so they left the room with the ginseng fruit and secretly ate the ginseng fruit. This scene happened to fall in the eyes of the incarnate Wukong and Bajie.
Bajie had long been salivating over the ginseng fruit, so when he saw this, he transformed into Wukong and went to steal the ginseng fruit.
The incarnation of Wukong has a lawless temper, so he secretly went to the backyard, stole a few ginseng fruits, and shared them with Bajie and Sha Seng.
The next day, when Qingfeng and Mingyue were counting the number of ginseng fruits, they found that a few ginseng fruits were missing, so they went to Xuanzang to ask for an explanation. The two sides had a big quarrel and almost started fighting.
The incarnation of Wukong was severely lectured by Xuanzang. In anger, he actually raised a giant dragon stick and knocked down the ginseng fruit tree that had existed since the beginning of the world.
The incarnation of Wukong knew that he was causing great trouble, and regardless of the fact that it was the middle of the night, he hurriedly woke up Xuanzang and the others and fled west in a hurry.
"Crack!" A crisp sound resounded throughout the world, which was the sound of the innate spiritual roots breaking. The sound was so loud that only beings above the powerful could hear this sound.
In the City God's Dharma Domain, Wang Mingzhen has been paying attention to Xuanzang's master and disciples, and has always been doubtful about the difficulty of Wuzhuang Temple.
Zhen Yuanzi exists, and this ginseng fruit tree has been linked to his life for countless times. How could he allow Sun Wukong to harm him?
The meager Westward Journey Qi is naturally extremely valuable to ordinary immortals, but it is of little help to Zhen Yuanzi.
You must know that this ginseng fruit tree is the foundation of Zhen Yuanzi. Pulling down the fruit tree will destroy the foundation of Zhen Yuanzi. This is the hatred of blocking the path!
With Zhen Yuanzi's Taoist cultivation, not even the Second Saint of the West could force him to destroy his Taoist foundation! In other words, Zhen Yuanzi did this voluntarily, and there must be something fishy in this!
At this time, Wang Mingzhen's doubts disappeared, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes as he looked at Wuzhuangguan. Not everyone has such determination to break and stand again!
At this time, Zhen Yuanzi, who was hiding deep in Wanshou Mountain, was spitting out blood and his breath was weak. However, he was not disappointed at all. Instead, he was smiling and overjoyed!
"You have lost the opportunity this time. Even if you break and then stand, you still can't keep up with us. Why not wait until the time is right before doing this!" Wang Mingzhen's voice suddenly sounded in Zhen Yuanzi's ears.
Zhen Yuanzi's face changed slightly. He didn't expect that his plan would fall into the eyes of others. The situation at this time was very unfavorable to him.
"The opportunity must not be missed. The time will never come again. Only by fighting hard can we have hope of transcendence. If we delay the opportunity, there will still be no hope of transcendence even in the next era."
Wang Mingzhen was not surprised at all when he heard Zhen Yuanzi's answer. In fact, he understood Zhen Yuanzi's choice deep in his heart because they were the same type of people!
"I am not alone! Fellow Taoist, please feel free to break through. I will personally protect you. As long as those few don't come, the rest will be nothing more than chickens and dogs." Wang Mingzhen's voice sounded again.
Although he had no friendship with Zhen Yuanzi, he did not want such a capable person to fall into a man-made disaster.
After all, there is no conflict of interest between them. In this case, why not help Zhen Yuanzi? Multiple allies are better than multiple enemies!
At this time, Zhen Yuanzi was at his weakest, and there was no guarantee that no one with evil intentions would come to test him. Wang Mingzhen never minded speculating on others with the most evil intentions.
Maybe Zhen Yuanzi did a good job keeping the secret, or maybe he sensed Wang Mingzhen's powerful aura, but nothing happened.
Zhen Yuanzi didn't have any answer. He just took the time to repair the foundation and slowly restored his cultivation level.
Through Zhen Yuanzi's unremitting efforts, the broken Taoist foundation was re-healed, and a more profound Taoist foundation was reborn.
His depressed aura began to rise continuously, and the five qi in his chest were stimulated, and the five qi were invigorated and endless, seeming to form a new balance.
An illusory voice sounded from Zhen Yuanzi, and a small world opened up from his chest, where countless creatures seemed to thrive and give birth to civilization.
With just a cup of tea, Zhen Yuanzi completed the practice of the Heavenly Immortal Way, brought the five Qi to the Yuan, opened up his own small world, and became an immortal golden immortal.
As the ancestor of the Earth Immortal, he has been cultivating the Innate Sacred since the beginning of the world. The Five Qi Dynasty is just the beginning.
Immediately afterwards, three ninth-grade lotus flowers appeared on the top of Zhen Yuanzi's head, representing the three flowers of essence, energy and spirit respectively.
The gathering of three flowers at the top is the lifelong pursuit of countless immortals, but for Zhen Yuanzi, it is just a scenery on the way to practice.
He is willing to take the risk of death and destruction, break and then stand, so naturally he will not be satisfied with the state of three flowers gathering at the top.
I saw three ninth-grade lotuses trembling continuously, and a mysterious and mysterious aura began to spread out in all directions with Zhen Yuanzi as the center, and soon spread from Wanshou Mountain to the Three Realms.
In the Three Realms, all practitioners can feel this special aura, and there seems to be infinite truth hidden in it.
"This is someone who condensed the prototype of the Taoist Fruit, which is felt by heaven and earth and benefits all living beings." A knowledgeable person recognized this vision and couldn't help but say with great joy.
Whenever someone condenses the prototype of Tao and Fruit and forms a path of his own, he will resonate with the heaven and earth, explain his own Tao to all living beings in the three realms, and absorb the wisdom of all living beings to perfect the Tao.
And sentient beings can also learn some valuable knowledge from it, and even comprehend Taoism and magical powers. This is the so-called benefiting the common people.
As the breath filled the air, many strange phenomena began to appear in the sky and the earth. Flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses surged from the ground, auspicious clouds bloomed, and the fragrance filled the nostrils. Everyone who smelled it felt relaxed and happy.
Zhen Yuanzi suddenly opened his eyes, and saw him smiling and uttering four words: "Zhenyuan Avenue!"
Although these four or four words are simple, in the ears of sentient beings in the three realms, they are an infinite truth, explaining the mystery of the laws of the earth, the laws of wood, and the laws of space.
All the practitioners were immersed in this wonderful realization, as if Zhen Yuanzi was preaching to them. This is a supreme opportunity that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
Zhen Yuanzi has a profound understanding of the laws of earth, wood, space, etc. Even a being at Wang Mingzhen's level has benefited a lot!
Of course, how much you can learn from it depends on each person’s fate and enlightenment.
Some people feel that they have heard a lot, but actually gained nothing; others only listened to a paragraph and gained profound insights and made great progress in their cultivation. This is a very normal thing.
Of course, the more advanced the person is, the greater the harvest will be; the more similar the person is to the great path, the greater the harvest will be and the more benefits will be.
But for those who have similar realms and similar paths, this is also a huge crisis. If you want to gather the Tao and fruit, you have to step out of your own way and learn the way of others. It is easy to step into the barriers and there is no hope of realizing the Tao!
Therefore, those practitioners who are expected to realize the Tao and Fruit have already closed their five senses and six consciousnesses for fear of being influenced by Zhen Yuanzi, and will never be able to achieve the Tao.
This is also the test of heaven and earth for these people, to see if they can deny their true intentions and refuse temptation. Only in this way can they have a chance to realize the path and fruition.
At this time, above Zhen Yuanzi's head, among the three ninth-grade lotus flowers, an illusory fruit appeared out of thin air, with countless Taoist principles hidden deep inside.
As time goes by, the illusory Tao Fruit continues to absorb the various Taoist magic powers in the world, and gradually transforms towards perfection.
Zhen Yuanzi sighed slightly and said: "After all, it's still a bit forced."
"After condensing the Dao Fruit, you are already on the same starting line as the Three Pure Ones and Two Saints. There is hope for transcendence!" Wang Mingzhen said with a frown.
"It's still far from it. The Taoist fruits of the Three Pure Ones and Two Saints are already approaching maturity. We only need to wait until the time comes, and be baptized by the long river of time and destiny, to turn the imaginary into the real. When the fruit is ripe, we can achieve transcendence."
Zhen Yuanzi paused and continued: "But my Taoist fruit needs to be polished carefully before it can mature slowly. This era is already beyond hope."
"This is already the best result. I thought that you could at most condense the prototype of the Dao Fruit and return to your peak cultivation level. I never thought that you would go all out, directly condense the Dao Fruit, and step into the ranks of the strongest.
."
Zhen Yuanzi said with a smile: "I didn't expect that after cutting off the shackles, breaking and then standing up, I would be able to cross that threshold. I have to thank my fellow Taoists for protecting the way!"
Wang Mingzhen said nonchalantly: "We are both latecomers, so we should support each other!"
Just as Zhen Yuanzi and Wang Mingzhen were talking, in the Baihu Ridge where corpses were everywhere, a skeleton with a white skeleton had a weird smile on its face.
"I originally thought about whether I could control him, but I didn't expect that the City God would protect him. It's such a pity." Bai Gu murmured to himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow flew out from the white bones and turned into a black smoke and disappeared between the sky and the earth.
And that white skeleton instantly transformed into a beauty in palace attire. If the little black bear Heifeng were here, he would be able to recognize that the beauty in palace attire is the long-lost Bai Jingjing.
Zhen Yuanzi and Wang Mingzhen just glanced in the direction of Bai Hu, then withdrew their gaze and began to sit down and talk.
As for the four masters and disciples of Xuanzang, let them run away for a while. Anyway, they can't escape Zhen Yuanzi's sleeves.
Sensing that Zhen Yuanzi had condensed the Dao Fruit, many great powers opened their eyes from retreat. They could clearly feel that the tide of the times was coming, which was both disaster and opportunity.
Except for the Three Pure Saints and Two Saints and the two empresses, the other powerful people saw the scene of Zhen Yuanzi becoming Taoist, and their Taoist hearts that were originally calm in the ancient well became agitated.
In the Lingxiao Palace of Heaven, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother sat opposite each other. His face looked neither sad nor happy, but his clenched fists proved that he was not at peace in his heart.
In the Fire Cloud Cave, the three holy emperors of the human race opened their eyes at the same time. Xuanyuan smiled bitterly and said: "The great age is coming. If we cannot prove the truth, then the human race..."
In a mysterious world of flames, Taoist Lu Ya sat cross-legged under the fusang tree, as if he were a god. He suddenly opened his eyes and murmured: "Zhen Yuanzi has already taken that step, it seems that I have to hurry up too
It’s time.”
In the Beiminghai Demon Master Palace, Kunpeng's ancestor looked livid: "Zhen Yuanzi, I thought you were hopeless and detached, but I never thought that you would break through and then stand up, and instead you would prove the Dao one step ahead of us!"
The endless sea of blood in the Netherworld suddenly set off a huge wave of blood. Ancestor Styx suddenly opened his eyes, looked in the direction of the Yinshan Dojo, and said bitterly: "Ksitigarbha, the hatred for blocking the road is irreconcilable!"
In Fengdu City in the Netherworld, Emperor Fengdu looked at the sky with deep eyes and murmured to himself: "Detachment, detachment!"
…
It can be said that Zhen Yuanzi's enlightenment is like a pebble falling on calm water, causing ripples that will gradually develop into huge waves that will eventually sweep across the entire world.
