Chapter 125 Mingyu: Im done asking, you can do whatever you want
When the last Taoist sat down, Haotian and Yao Ji slowly closed the door of Zixiao Palace, and at this time, three thousand years have passed.
Taoist Ancestor Hongjun opened his eyes and looked at the three thousand Taoists sitting down leisurely. He then spoke. He was not as arrogant as the Hunyuan Saint, but his voice was calm and made people feel like they were in the spring breeze, as if they were in the Taoist realm.
"I uphold the jade plate of creation, control the way of heaven, and teach the Three Thousand Great Ways. There are three lectures before and after. This is the first lecture. I hope you will gain something from what you have heard and achieve success in practice!"
All the Taoists nodded their heads and waited patiently for the Taoist ancestor to start his lecture.
Unexpectedly, Zu said again: "In addition, you need to remember this time. The next two lectures will still be arranged according to today's seating order, so remember it."
When Mingyu heard this, he couldn't help but lower his head a little and use Fuxi's broad back to block himself. He always felt that the old man's words were meant for him.
"As for that, I was just joking, the old man is serious."
Seeing that Taoist ancestor Hongjun spoke so solemnly, everyone responded: "We will bear in mind this!"
Hongjun nodded and formally began his lecture.
"The Tao has no name, and the Tao is not clear. It is said to be big, and it can pass away, and it is said to have passed away; it can be said to be far away, and it is said to be far away; it can be said to be great, and it is said to be great. Therefore, it is said: the sky is big, the earth is big, and the Tao is also big...
…”
"The Tao is a thing, but it is vague and sudden. It is vague and vague, and there is an image in it; it is vague and sudden, and there is something in it; it is slim and dark, and there is essence in it. The essence of the position is very true, and there is faith in it.
.Occupying positions since ancient times and today, its name will never go away..."
"The great road is formless, giving birth to the heaven and the earth; the great road is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon; the great road is nameless, nourishing all things; I don't know its name, so I just call it Tao. The Tao has clearness and turbidity, movement and stillness; the sky is clear and the earth is turbid.
The sky moves and the earth is still; the original flow comes to an end and everything comes into being. The pure is the source of turbidity. The moving is the foundation of stillness..."
Zixiao's three thousand mortal guests are all powerful.
Therefore, when Hongjun preaches, he starts from a high position and starts from the top down.
Let’s start from the true nature of Tao, start from the origin of Tao; every word is precious, every sentence is the most reasonable, where the Tao comes from and where it goes.
Then, starting from the origin of Tao, we will talk about the three thousand avenues, talking about time, space, creation, yin and yang, and cause and effect... The three thousand avenues started from one and evolved endlessly.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]
Finally, the Taoist ancestor began to teach the Dharma, which is the Dharma. He taught the method of practicing the Tao, the method of understanding the Tao, the method of enlightening the Tao, and the method of entering the Tao...
He preached for a total of nine thousand years before and after. During the nine thousand years, he only talked about the Great Way and the Dharma. Hongjun preached word by word, speaking very slowly; everyone memorized it word by word, remembering it very carefully.
Mingyu listened quietly to the words of the Taoist ancestors, the spiritual platform was clear, the soul was trembling, the Tao tree of life and death in the yin and yang soil was endlessly radiant; the confusion of Tao was suddenly enlightened today; all the limbs and bones felt extremely comfortable.
Even though he had just entered Da Luo not long ago, as Tao Ancestor preached, his Tao practice was also growing, and his foundation was solid...
In the front row, Lao Tzu seems to be sleeping and waking up, Yuan Shi is concentrating, his eyebrows are raised to the sky and his starry eyes are bright; Nu Wa quietly closes her eyes, looking calm; Qi Yin's face is extremely painful, but Zhunti's face is full of smiles.
Fu Xi is happy, Zhen Yuan is happy, Hong Yun Ming He can't stop laughing. Taiyi and others stepped into the mysterious realm, and the shaman eyes of Hou Tuzu were blurred.
She really doesn’t understand!
If Mingyu sat next to her, he would have noticed that the gentle, elegant, and generous Houtu Zuwu was frowning, biting his silver teeth, and his beautiful face was somewhat distorted.
She remembered that it was very hard.
The Wu clan does not have a soul, so it is difficult to understand the Tao. Hongjun said that the Tao is high and towering, which is a great joy for other powerful people, but a great sorrow for her.
But Hou Tu is a powerful person in heaven and earth. Even if it is extremely difficult, she does not want to give up. Without her soul, she still has the heart!
The creation of the Wu clan comes from the heart, and all the great power comes from the heart.
As long as your heart doesn't die, what can't you do?
The Houtu ancestor shaman directly opened the spiritual world and engraved the words of the Taoist ancestors into the entire world. The heaven and the earth were the paper, the mind was the pen, and the Taoist words were the ink.
When Daozu spoke a word, she carved a word; when Daozu spoke, she carved a word.
Until the end, her energy was almost exhausted, but Hou Tu still didn't give up.
When Hongjun preached for nine thousand years, he stopped. The sound of the sermon stopped, and all the Taoists woke up from the Xuan Realm, just like a hundred claws scratching their hearts.
Fortunately, Taozu said: "This sermon will last for ten thousand years. The first nine thousand years will be preached by poor Taoists. There are still one thousand years left. I will answer your questions."
As soon as this statement came out, the three thousand guests were very excited.
"I dare to ask teacher, where is the Tao?" I asked first.
Hongjun replied without hesitation: "The Tao is in the original heart, in heaven and earth, and in all things!"
Yuanshi asked: "Is there any superior or inferior Tao?"
Hongjun said: "Tao has no superiority, no strength, no order. Everything depends on the Taoist!"
"What is cause and effect?" This is a direct question.
"Thoughts are the cause, actions are the results."
"The geometry of the Tao? The geometry of the extremes of the Tao?" Nuwa asked, getting straight to the point.
Hongjun replied: "There are three thousand avenues, and there are also three thousand peaks!"
When all the Taoists heard about it, they were all happy.
"What is Hunyuan and what is Heavenly Saint? Which of the two is stronger and which is weaker?" Taoist Xiaoyao asked with some anxiety. This is a question that many old guys are concerned about.
Hongjun's tone was gentle, "On the 33rd day of Da Luo's ascension to heaven, the other side of the Tao is Hunyuan!
As for the saints of the way of heaven, they have a realm and a status. Those who enter the Hunyuan through the way of heaven are saints. Therefore, the saints are Hunyuan, and the Hunyuan is not a saint.
Saints and the way of heaven coexist, and the way of heaven is immortal, and saints will never die. Within the way of heaven, saints are three points stronger; outside of the way of heaven, they are three points weaker!"
"The Taoist ancestor meant that there is no conflict between Hunyuan and the saint?" Mingyu grasped the key point.
If you use the way of heaven to enter the Hunyuan, you are a saint. With the blessing of the way of heaven, you are three points stronger than the ordinary Hunyuan, and conversely it will be three points weaker.
But what if you first prove Hunyuan and then enter the titular holy position of Heavenly Dao? Will you be able to enjoy the benefits of Heavenly Dao while maintaining the normal combat power of Hunyuan?
"No conflict!" Hongjun glanced at Mingyu and answered truthfully.
Mingyu originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot and ask about the method of becoming a saint, so as not to save the old man from hiding it. When Hongjun glanced at him like this, he quickly buried his head deeper, as honest as a quail.
An expression that says "I've finished asking, you can do whatever you want".
The Taoists asked questions one after another, all of which were related to confusion on the road. Hongjun answered them one by one very patiently. Every word he spoke could enlighten everyone and make people think.
"I dare to ask the ancestor, can I seek the great road of the witch clan?" Hou Tu finally calmed down, his expression still looked a bit tired.
When she made a sound, Mingyu noticed that something was wrong with her face.
Thinking about it, among the three thousand mortal guests, Houtu is the only one who has no soul. It is already very difficult for her to persist in listening to the present.
After listening to her question, Hongjun thought for a moment and said one word: "Yes!"
Just this word, Hou Tu’s heart is set!
Mingyu could clearly see her expression relaxing.
Hou Tu was determined, but the two brothers Tai Yi, Di Jun, and Hong Yun Ming He were even more concerned.
