Li Fan and Master Yin returned to the depths of the building. After sitting down at a resting place, Li Fan explained his purpose.
"Oh? Are you asking how to break through to the foundation building stage?" Master Yin suddenly became excited and spit. "Fellow Taoist, you are asking the right person! I dare say that no one knows foundation building better than me!"<
/p>
"I'd like to hear the details!" Li Fan asked with a smile without replying.
At this time, the human-hand dog walked upright like a human.
The two forelimb hands hold two cups and place them on the table.
The cup was filled with black water, and I didn’t know what was inside.
The man-hand dog then lay down again and kept circling around Master Yin to claim credit.
"Fellow Taoist, please drink tea! This is a good thing. It is the aura bacteria that I cultivated. If it reproduces and symbiotically grows in the body, it can speed up the circulation of aura and enhance the power of the aura burst. There are many benefits." Master Yin took a sip like it was delicious.
, said to Li Fan.
Li Fan swept his consciousness and found that what was tumbling in the cup were countless tiny creatures, with teeth and claws, and unique looks.
So Li Fan stood still.
Seeing that Li Fan refused to drink, Master Yin felt a little regretful.
Without forcing anything, he got to the point and asked: "The so-called foundation building is the foundation for cultivating the Tao. So, fellow Taoists, do you know what this Tao foundation is?"
Li Fan thought for a moment and replied: "The Tao Foundation is the foundation of a monk's practice. After a monk reaches the point of perfecting his Qi refining, he needs to build his own Tao Foundation before he can continue to practice. Otherwise, even if his cultivation level can continue to increase, it will not be the same.
A hundred-foot tall building is built on sand. If it shakes slightly, it will collapse."
When discussing academics, Master Yin was quite serious. He nodded: "Yes, before the Great Tribulation, there were qi-refining monks who took a different approach. They did not build Taoist foundations and only specialized in qi-refining."
"It is said that there is no limit to Qi refining, and three thousand levels of Qi refining can kill Hedao. Unfortunately, this person only cultivated to the ninety-ninth level of Qi refining, and then he was looked down upon by a golden elixir monk and was killed casually."
"Perhaps this method is really feasible, but firstly, the bodies of Qi-refining monks are weak and cannot withstand such a huge force. Secondly, even if there are many levels of Qi-refining, they will only have brute force. It is really different from Foundation Establishment and above.
The cultivating monks started to fight and suffered too much losses, so they sacrificed the good and the weak."
Master Yin took a sip of tea and continued: "The ancient monks all followed nature. They observed the laws of heaven and earth and understood the laws of circulation."
"Then, combine your own feelings and make a poor imitation."
"The monks' understanding and thinking about the Tao formed over time have become the foundation for future practice."
"Because qualifications are different, understanding is high or low; the speed at which monks can comprehend the Tao and build the foundation for it, and their degree of compatibility also vary greatly."
"Some people can feel something in their hearts in an instant and lay the foundation immediately. But the vast majority of people have been struggling for decades and can't make any progress."
"The difficulty of practicing Taoism is evident."
Master Yin suddenly sighed: "But that was in the past."
"If the laws of heaven and earth are compared to a towering tree, then in the past, monks like us were all tiny elves among the trees. We flew among the branches and leaves to observe and comprehend."
"It's too slow and too difficult."
"So, after the Immortal Lord preached, monks like us turned into greedy ants. We no longer engaged in observing and comprehending, imitating and reproducing, but directly gnawed the branches and leaves of the giant tree and turned them into materials for our own growth." "In this way, practice will definitely be countless times faster. And the wonders of heaven and earth are just like the branches and leaves of this giant tree."
"It is the aggregation of the laws of heaven and earth in a certain aspect. Using strange objects as a basis, monks can omit the process of their own enlightenment and directly turn them into their own Tao foundation."
Li Fan nodded: "I remember it was said in "Theory of Strange Objects"."
""Theory of Strange Objects"..." Master Yin sneered, as if he was disdainful.
He continued: "If we say that the wonders of heaven and earth were faked in the past, it was to omit the process of understanding heaven and earth..."
"Then, let me ask you. Nowadays, there are monks and geniuses who don't need the wonders of heaven and earth to understand these laws. His understanding of heaven and earth is so in harmony that in ancient times, he could directly build the foundation. Now,
Are you okay?" Master Yin looked at Li Fan with burning eyes.
"Of course it won't work. Building the foundation requires the wonders of heaven and earth..." Li Fan said, suddenly thought of something and fell silent.
"Yes, the method of cultivation has been completely changed." Master Yin said coldly.
"In the past, monks understood the laws of heaven and earth and followed the laws of nature. This was the principle of nature."
"But after the Immortal Master taught the Dharma, this natural principle was reversed. The monks had to go against the will of heaven and plunder the heaven and the earth..."
Li Fan whispered: "It defies the laws of heaven and earth..."
"To prove immortality!" Master Yin continued.
"I don't know what monks need to achieve immortality before the great tribulation."
"But since the method of cultivation has been changed, the only way to achieve immortality is to go against the principles of heaven and earth."
"The original Immortal Master of Chuanfa was the proposer of the theory and the first practitioner."
"He went against all the principles of practice among monks in the world and achieved the status of immortality. From then on, he lived as long as heaven and earth, and was free and easy."
"From then on, monks all over the world who want to practice can only practice according to His 'Dharma'. How overbearing!"
Master Yin's tone was fierce, and he was obviously quite dissatisfied with this Immortal Lord who taught the Dharma.
"Go your own way, and then let all sentient beings have no choice but to follow this path from now on. What a Dharma-transmitting Heavenly Lord..." Li Fan was shocked in his heart.
This is the second Immortal Lord he has glimpsed.
Then, he suddenly thought of the giant statue of an old man with a high crown on Ten Thousand Immortals Island.
Standing tall and independent, overlooking all living beings coming and going.
"Could it be that this Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was created by the Heavenly Lord Chuanfa? But since the Heavenly Lord Chuanfa is still alive, how could he sit back and watch Ten Thousand Immortals Island be destroyed by red flames a few years later..." Li Fan's heart surged.
A moment of doubt.
Master Yin didn't pay attention to Li Fan, and continued: "Here comes the key question, since now foundation building must fake the wonders of heaven and earth."
"Then what are the wonders of heaven and earth?"
"You have also read "Theory of Strange Objects" and know that after a monk falls, he will be transformed into a strange object by heaven and earth."
"Doesn't that mean that monks can also be regarded as strange objects of heaven and earth that have not been completely transformed during their lifetime?"
Master Yin spoke faster and faster, as if he wanted to tell all the research that no one had paid attention to over the years in one breath.
"Heaven and earth are like a furnace, and the finished products are the formed wonders of heaven and earth. And everything in heaven and earth can be regarded as wonders that have not yet been formed!"
"Wonderful things are a collection of rules, aren't people? The human body is so delicate and contains infinite mysteries. Why shouldn't it be regarded as a strange thing?"
"Fellow Taoists, you may also know that some monks will refine mortals with supernatural powers into miraculous objects of heaven and earth and use them as their own Taoist foundation. Thus, they can take possession of those mortals' supernatural powers as their own."
"I am also a human being, so am I a strange object?"
Li Fan saw that Master Yin was getting more and more outrageous, so he couldn't help but asked: "Is this the guess of fellow Taoist, or..."
Master Yin grinned: "It used to be a guess, but now..."
"It has been confirmed by me."
As he spoke, his entire body split open left and right along the midline.
In the flesh and blood of the five internal organs, another face of Lord Yin emerged.
"Ten years ago, I used myself as a rare object to build the foundation of the Tao!"
