Chapter 2979 Ten thousand years of practice, the beginning of Tai Chi
The sundial hangs over Tianzun Lake, and the light and shadow cast by the stone needle change its position over and over again on the stone plate.
The flowers in the mountains bloom and fall, spring passes and winter comes.
Time flies so fast, I don’t know how many sacred stones have been consumed.
…
For thousands of years, Zhang Ruochen has spent most of his time in the area covered by the sundial, either sketching rules, practicing spiritual power, studying formations, or refining artifacts.
When he was hungry, he dug out the Yuanhui holy medicine from "The Picture of the Sixth Patriarch's Explanation of Zen" and swallowed it. When he was thirsty, he drank from the sacred spring in the lake.
The water in Tianzun Lake is naturally not a true pure spring, but it contains the strong atmosphere of the spring.
Elsewhere, it would be as difficult as to find a miracle medicine.
But at the bottom of Tianzun Lake, Zhang Ruochen found a total of three magic medicines. However, the magic medicines all grew in ancient ruins. Their locations were secret and guarded by Tianzun's divine patterns, so the gods of the Heaven-Building Realm could not break in.
The divine spring is diluted from the place where the three magical herbs grow.
As the drunkard said, ten thousand years is indeed a big tipping point.
Even though Zhang Ruochen did not spend all his time on cultivation, he had discussions with Pluto, Fengchen Sword God and others, played chess and chess with Yan Zhexian, Gushe Huanhuan, Luo Ji and other women, and went to the ruins of Tianzun Temple.
Through experience and exploration, I have entered the secular world of Xinghuan Tian to travel around the mountains and rivers.
However, I still feel that there are many distracting thoughts in my heart, and I am restless and unable to completely get out of the state of cultivation.
The eagerness for success is getting heavier and heavier, and I wish I could reach the level of a god overnight.
This is dangerous!
Zhang Ruochen realized that he could not continue to practice.
Not only him, but other gods who have practiced in seclusion for more than five thousand years also have emotional problems.
Xiao Hei became very irritable, and Xue Tu became more and more crazy. The two started fighting whenever they disagreed, making it impossible for the gods to practice quietly. The key is that the reason for the fight was nonsense.
Once, Xiao Hei walked past Xue Tu, and Xue Tu glanced at Xiao Hei sideways.
Xiao Hei immediately felt that Xuetu was provoking and declaring war, so...
The fight started.
Luo Ji's state was also very strange. He no longer stayed at peace to practice in his temple, but broke into the Seven Stars Imperial Palace and repeatedly urged Zhang Ruochen to marry her as soon as possible and complete the engagement.
It's not that Zhang Ruochen doesn't want to marry her, it's just that the sundial has been turned on. Obviously, working hard to improve his cultivation is the most important thing at the moment.
I turned off the sundial midway and went to marry her. How should I explain it to Pluto, Fengchen Sword God, Yan Yu and others who were practicing?
After many arguments, Luo Ji gave up the idea of getting married immediately, but insisted on practicing with Zhang Ruochen.
A man and a woman alone, staying in a temple, do they want to meditate and practice?
After being rejected by Zhang Ruochen again, Luo Ji stayed outside the Seven-Star Imperial Palace, seemingly practicing there, but in fact, what he did was very extreme.
Prajna, Bai Qing'er, Yan Zhexian, and Gushe Huanhuan, who had a close relationship with Luo Ji, all had to pass her test if they wanted to enter the Seven Stars Imperial Palace to see Zhang Ruochen.
A fight is inevitable every time.
Obviously, the time of retreat and cultivation, which far exceeds the monk's previous age and experience, will cause huge changes in the monk's mood, temperament, and thinking.
This is a sign of an impending obsession!
The only ones in slightly better condition are the older Aji, Pluto, Yan Yu, and Bai Qing'er. Although Xiao Hei is the oldest, he has been sealed in the scroll most of the time.
"We can't let them continue practicing!"
Zhang Ruochen put away the sundial and took everyone with mental problems to visit the drunkard.
In Weiming Villa.
The drunkard teaches boxing to two big white geese in the manor.
He stood in a horse stance and punched out like raindrops. He did not use his mental power or spirit. While punching, he explained the subtleties to Gou Da and Gou Er.
It is worth mentioning that the two big white geese have entered the area covered by the sundial many times to practice, and now their cultivation has reached the Great Sage Infinite Realm.
The reason why the cultivation speed is so slow is because the drunkard keeps suppressing it.
Each realm requires them to practice to the extreme, otherwise they cannot break through.
They were originally two ordinary poultry, but with the help of the drunkard's various secret techniques, they almost transformed into two white-winged rocs.
Bathed in the blood of Dapeng, tempered with the soul essence of the dragon, and even fed some of the leaves of the magical medicine.
Now Goose Da and Goose Er have cultivated a human-shaped divine body, with a neck like a dragon, a goose head only the size of a fist, and the wings on their backs are shining with flames.
They all have the possibility of hitting Yuanhui-level representatives.
To cultivate a Yuanhui-level representative is as difficult as climbing to the sky, even for a drunkard. Of course, the main reason is that Gou Da and Gou Er are not born with the same talent.
In fact, behind every Yuanhui-level representative, there is almost a huge force, with transcendent-level experts cultivating them, or they themselves have incredible opportunities.
Since it is so difficult to become a Yuanhui-level representative, Yuanhui-level geniuses are even more rare.
When Zhang Ruochen saw Goose Da and Goose Er, he felt in a subtle state of mind. He finally understood how important he was in the eyes of the gods when he was still a great sage.
Absolutely trivial.
Before he cultivated the first-grade holy will, most of the gods probably didn't bother to look at him.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen, the drunkard immediately retracted his fists and laughed: "Where is Niu Jianqiang? Let him out and fight with these two incompetent gatekeepers like me. Let's see if he can win this time!"
Goose Da and Goose Er had unnatural expressions, and felt depressed in their hearts. They knew that the drunkard would not admit that he was their master until they defeated Niu Jianqiang or entered the realm of gods.
"There is no rush now. This junior comes here because of something important and wants to ask for advice."
Immediately, Zhang Ruochen told everyone about the situation, hoping to find a solution to the problem from the drunkard.
"I thought it was such a big deal!"
The drunkard said: "It is normal to have unstable moods and mood swings after a long period of retreat. I have two methods here, one is fast and the other is slow!"
Zhang Ruochen asked: "What is one fast and one slow?"
"The slow way is actually to ignore them. With their spiritual will and state of mind, if you spend more time, you can recover on your own."
"What's the quickest way?"
The drunkard looked at Zhang Ruochen with a smile and said, "Don't you have the Sixth Patriarch's Bodhi Tree and Mirror Stand on you?"
Zhang Ruochen knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he nodded.
At the same time, I already know what to do!
The bodhi tree is a sacred tree in Buddhism.
The Mirror Stand is made from the relics of the Sixth Patriarch and is a sacred artifact of Buddhism.
The Buddhist sacred tree and Buddhist artifacts are treasures that purify the mind and calm the energy. Naturally, they can help everyone get out of the state of being about to become possessed.
The drunkard's expression became extremely serious and he reminded: "Although the Bodhi tree and the mirror stand can help you restore your state of mind and emotions. But remember that cultivation is a step-by-step process. Don't retreat again in the short term. Go out for a walk and see the world.
, your vision is still very narrow!"
"Junior understands."
Zhang Ruochen was just about to leave, but he stopped again, as if he thought of something that confused him, and said, "Junior, I have one more thing to ask!"
The drunkard looked very impatient and urged: "If you have something to say, just say it, and if you have anything to say, let it go as soon as possible."
Zhang Ruochen did not say anything, nor did he release it. Instead, he released the Tai Chi circle and maintained it at a radius of eighteen feet.
On the Tai Chi circle, countless detailed rules are flowing.
Zhang Ruochen moved his hands according to a mysterious pattern. Suddenly, the rules flowing on the circle spread out and were evenly distributed inside the circle.
Regular distribution, clear distinction.
The rules of darkness, the rules of death, the rules of killing, the rules of waterways...etc., the rules of the Yin attribute are gathered together.
The rules of light, the rules of life, the rules of fire...etc., the rules of yang attributes are gathered together. The two do not merge with each other, one is yin and the other is yang, and they are mutually exclusive.
In addition, there are some rules that do not have the attributes of yin and yang, and they shuttle chaotically through the Tai Chi circle.
"Bang!"
Zhang Ruochen was unable to maintain this state of yin and yang rotation, and the stability was broken. After a violent shock, all the rules converged on the circle again.
The drunkard's eyes were narrowed tightly, with a strange brilliance shining in his pupils. He was obviously a little surprised and said: "How many kinds of rules have you written in total?
Zhang Ruochen said: "The nine eternal ways and the seventy-two supreme holy ways are all depicted, and they are all learned from heaven and earth. As for the three thousand great avenues and the one hundred thousand minor paths, it is too late to study and study them all, and the total of them can only be depicted.
There are more than 10,000 rules!"
"By the way, I have also carved out some rules for the various heavenly ways created by the ten clans of hell. But I only have a superficial understanding of them and have not studied them seriously."
The drunkard said coldly: "You have done a lot of things in these ten thousand years, and it is a miracle that you did not blow yourself up."
Zhang Ruochen smiled sarcastically, knowing that this was not a miracle, but because he had refined too many treasures in his body, and coupled with the inclusiveness of the Wuji Way, he was still alive.
Zhang Ruochen said: "This junior knows very well that the next change in the Wuji Way should be related to the division of yin and yang when the world first opened. But how can we achieve balance when yin and yang conflict?"
"Some of these Tao do not have the attributes of Yin and Yang. How can they be unified into Yin and Yang?"
The drunkard said: "All the ways in the world are derived from yin and yang, and naturally have the attributes of yin and yang. Just like time and space, they seem to have no attributes, but in fact, time is yin and space is yang, one is soft and the other is hard.
"
"You can't see their attributes just because your realm is not high enough and your understanding is not deep enough."
Zhang Ruochen listened carefully.
The drunkard continued: "Actually, you shouldn't come to me for advice. The path you are taking is quite similar to that of Taoism. You should go to Taoism to study and become apprentices to Taoist masters. This is the key to your breakthrough!"
Zhang Ruochen realized that it turned out that he was too eager for success, thinking that after asking the drunkard for advice, he would be able to make an instant breakthrough with just a few words of advice.
In fact, there are still many things that I need to learn.
Jiugui said: "The Taoist lineage originated from the "Luoshu" of the early Tianchu civilization. After an unknown number of years of development, it finally reached its peak during the Tai Chi Tao of the Kunlun Realm and the Nv Xishi period of the Pangu Realm. In addition,
, the Five Elements Temple located in the heaven, there are only these four true Taoist holy places."
