Xu Chunniang's eyes fell on the lake and she felt something in her heart.
Tao is invisible, but it can evolve the heaven and earth, move the sun and moon, and nourish all things. It is the origin of everything.
Heaven and earth coexist, and all things are one, and all insects and insects have spirituality, not to mention birds, beasts, and swimming fish.
However, if you want these mortal beasts to open up their spiritual intelligence, the help of spiritual energy is indispensable.
If there are no low-level spiritual objects or elixirs, you can use the Spiritual Rain technique instead.
The Spiritual Rain Technique was the first minor spell she learned after entering Xiaoyao Sect.
It only takes a small amount of spiritual energy to create a spiritual rain.
The level of the spiritual rain technique is low, and the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual rain it generates is also extremely thin, but it is just suitable for these mortal beasts.
Xu Chunniang's thoughts moved and she saw a few drops of spiritual rain falling on the originally calm lake.
The fish in the water seemed to feel something, and they gathered around the place where the rain fell, and opened their mouths to catch the spiritual rain. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't expect that after so many years, the spiritual rain technique could still be used.
day.
At this moment, the egret standing on the water plants on the shore, preening its feathers, also stopped moving and looked at the fish gathering in the lake.
Its two slender legs suddenly straightened back, its white wings spread out, and like sharp arrows, it flew toward the center of the lake gracefully and swiftly.
When it flew over the center of the lake, it lowered its head slightly, pecked at the surface of the lake with its long beak, and accurately pecked a small fish two or three inches long.
The egret flew all the way to the other side of the lake with the small fish in its mouth, then raised its head leisurely and swallowed the fish in its mouth, not forgetting to continue cleaning its feathers.
The fish in the center of the lake were frightened and swam toward the depths of the water, scattering in droves.
Wang Tianhuan suggested as he was displeased with the egret when he looked at it from left to right.
"The egret ate fish and frightened the fish away. Let's just kill it."
Xu Chunniang thought for a while, "The egret eats fish because of its nature, just like the fish in the lake eat duckweed. It has done nothing wrong, so how can I hurt it because of this?"
Wang Tianhuan said impatiently, "But the spiritual energy contained in your spiritual rain technique is not much. If the fish are disturbed by the egret like this, how many years and months will it take to make these swimming fish become wise?"
"What I want to educate is not only the fish in the water, but also the sheep on the mountains and the birds in the sky.
The fish eat the spiritual rain, and the egret eats the fish that have eaten the spiritual rain, isn’t it great?”
Wang Tianyuan was speechless, "As long as a mortal creature turns on its spiritual intelligence, it will pass. Why are you going to all this trouble?"
"There is a sequence of hearing the Tao. Since I have the Tao in my heart, what's the harm in educating and transforming all sentient beings?"
Xu Chunniang shook her head slightly, remembering the nine reincarnations she experienced when she broke through to the stage of becoming a god.
In her second life, she also became a fish in the water, drifting with the current, and was later swallowed by a big fish.
Six paths of reincarnation, cause and effect reincarnation.
The weak fish in front of you are also sentient beings in reincarnation.
Ignoring Wang Tianjian anymore, she turned her head and started talking to the fish in the water.
Looking at this scene, Wang Tianhuan only felt absurd and ridiculous, "What are you talking to these mortals for? How can they understand you?"
"Words have spirit, and the Dharma nourishes all things."
Wang Tianhuan gave up trying to convince her, "Okay, let it go. You have nothing to do anyway, so do as you like."
Not only Wangtianhuan, but also the students in the preaching hall were speechless for a while when they saw this scene.
"What is she doing? Does she think these fish can understand human language?"
"Although the second level is not difficult, it still has many restrictions. If the number of evil creatures spawned is greater than the number of spiritual creatures that can be enlightened, or if any mortal creature cannot be enlightened within thirty years, it will be considered a failure."
"Let's go, there's no need to waste time here. Although the speed of time in the space she is in is ten times that of the outside world, we can't wait here for three years.
Regardless of whether she can succeed or not, there will be no results for a while. Let’s see again in three years.”
As the academic officials and students left one after another, the preaching hall became quiet again, with only the old man stationed at the preaching hall remaining.
The old man glanced at the light curtain next to the Dragon Soul Bell and shook his head slightly.
Even if the challenger successfully passes the second level, he may not be able to become an academic officer in the academy.
After all, no one has been recognized by the mountain chief for many years.
A challenger who suddenly visits is like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, causing a brief ripple and then returning to calm.
In Tianshen Academy, everything has returned to normal. Every few days or more than ten days, one or two challengers will come from afar to ring the Dragon Soul Bell.
But in the next three years, no one will be able to ring the Dragon Soul Bell ninety-nine times.
Three years passed quietly. The group of people who came to watch the battle because the Dragon Soul Bell was rung ninety-nine times had already forgotten about it in their busy life of cultivation.
Occasionally, I remembered a few things, but I had no intention of going to the Mission Hall again.
Because the level of mountain chief is really too difficult, for thousands of years, only a few people have been able to pass it.
The preaching hall was as deserted as ever.
The old man who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in the hall suddenly opened his eyes.
Calculating the time, the three-year period has passed. The original challenger should have achieved results.
He opened his eyes and looked towards the light curtain. When he saw the scene in the light curtain clearly, he couldn't hide his shock.
Inside the light curtain, the female nun was sitting cross-legged by the lake with a leisurely expression and was giving a sermon.
The lake on her left was crowded with fish, shrimps and other aquatic creatures; while on her right, it was surrounded by all kinds of animals.
Above her, various flying birds were hovering, and from time to time they would land affectionately on her shoulders.
The old man couldn't help but widen his eyes. Birds did not eat fish and shrimps. Jackals, wolves, cattle and sheep coexisted peacefully. This scene looked weird, but also had an indescribable sense of harmonious beauty.
In just thirty years, relying on that pitiful spiritual rain, could it be that all these birds and beasts have become enlightened?
In the world in the light curtain, Xu Chunniang felt that it was time for her to leave.
She took one last look at the birds, beasts and fish that had accompanied her for decades, and said gently, "I'm leaving."
Fish jumped out of the water eagerly, birds chirped reluctantly, and animals became restless.
"Gathering, separation, separation and union are all caused by fate. The Tao is natural, and so are you."
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly, turned into a white light, and left this world.
Wangtianhuan clicked his tongue and marveled, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that jackals and cattle and sheep could coexist in peace and harmony."
"As Wangtianhou, you may be powerful, but your understanding of Tao is far inferior to your strength."
Wang Tianyuan snorted and said disdainfully, "I don't need to understand this at all. I just need to be strong enough. I can defeat all laws with one force. Do you understand?"
