There is no real master in the Jinji Peak Cave Heaven. This is a rare situation. It also shows that all the real masters have been too busy in the past year. They finally took advantage of this moment to have some free time and returned to their respective mountains.
For example, Zhou Zhenren returned to Guansheng Pavilion in Guizhou, and Yang Zhenren returned to Yuanzhou Taixuan Pavilion. They have rarely left Lushan in the past two years. This time, they took advantage of the opportunity to attend the Zhao Ran Double Cultivation Ceremony and went back to have a look.
The person who was ordered to question Zhao Ran was a three-person inquiry team: Jinghui, the elder of Jiuzhou Pavilion, Zhuo Yunfeng, the elder of Sanqing Pavilion, and Taoist Mingyue, the deacon of Baojing Pavilion.
These three people all have a good relationship with Zhao Ran, and Zhao Ran was also very relaxed when asked.
Zhuo Yunfeng first said: "Congratulations to the two cultivators of Zhiran. I couldn't go to Maharaja Mountain to pay my respects because I couldn't leave. In summary, there is no real master here since last month, so we can only stick to the mountain."
Zhao Ran said: "Senior Brother Li conveyed his wishes to Elder Zhuo when he came to Dajun Mountain, and I am already very grateful."
Zhuo Yunfeng said: "That's good. The reason why I invite Zhiran to come for a general inspection this time is because last month, you preached the Dharma in the jungles, government offices, and military camps of Songfan Shifang. This matter spread all over the world, so I invite you.
Come and ask about the situation. Of course, this is not to say that what Zhiran did was wrong, but that what Zhiran did was a bit unbelievable. Can a person without roots or qualifications also teach the Dharma? All the true masters were shocked after hearing this.
, then we were entrusted to Xiang Zhiran to find out the details."
"It is indeed disciple Meng Lang. It would be better if we reported it to the True Master Hall in advance. But this was done accidentally without careful preparation and planning. It has indeed caused trouble to all the True Masters and seniors."
"What do you mean by chance?"
"On the way back to Maharaja Mountain to get married, the disciple broke through and became a master trainer..."
Mingyue blurted out and interjected: "Broken territory on the road?"
Jinghui nodded and said to Ming Yue: "Zhao Zhiran is extremely talented and his breakthrough is different from ordinary people. When he was born with spiritual consciousness two years ago, I was by his side for two moments."
Zhao Ran handed over to Jinghui: "Senior Duocheng was the protector of the law that day."
Zhuo Yunfeng also said to Mingyue: "I heard that the time he entered the Yellow Crown Realm lasted only an hour."
Taoist Mingyue didn't dare to speak anymore, and his thoughts were a little confused for a while.
Zhao Ran continued: "After entering the realm of master training, my understanding of practice was very different from before. Then I was thinking about whether I could pass on the skills I had practiced. Then I came up with this method.
, I call it the merit cultivation method.”
Zhuo Yunfeng asked: "I have heard Zhiran say many times before that there are thousands of avenues. You choose one. Is the one you choose the merit cultivation method? Is this your own creation? Is there any danger?
Where?"
Zhao Ran said: "This is the one I chose, and it is also my self-created method. As for the dangers, so far I have not thought of any potential dangers in this set of exercises. If you want to practice, do good things, do practical things, and relieve the people's worries.
Solving problems for the people, if you don't do these things, it will be difficult to make progress in your cultivation."
Mingyue asked: "Can Abbot Zhao's set of exercises be included in the Baojing Pavilion?"
Zhao Ran nodded: "Of course, I will write it down and give it to my senior later."
Ming Yue said: "If your technique is feasible, maybe it can be entered into the Taoist canon in a few years."
What Zhao Ran handed over was the text. It is impossible to cultivate merit power with only the methods of the Innate Merit Sutra. The visualization chart is in the hands of Zhao Ran and Jiang Tenghe, so there is no danger of the secret book being leaked.
In fact, the Dao Zang contains the secret books and scriptures of most sects, but studying with the Dao Zang can only increase knowledge and understand the principles of life and work. It is absolutely impossible to enter the threshold of practice.
Jinghui asked: "Can Zhiran's set of exercises enable people without qualifications to practice them? Can this be confirmed?"
Zhao Ran thought for a while and said, "I'm sure."
Jinghui, Zhuo Yunfeng and Mingyue looked at each other and were a little shocked. After a while, they asked again: "What is the difference in terms of cultivation resources and faith requirements?"
Zhao Ran replied: "The difference is very big. The basis of the cultivation method of merit power I created is to do things. If things are done well, the cultivation level will naturally continue to improve. Monks who practice merit power do not rely on spiritual power and do not compete for the blessed land of heaven.
, the demand for heavenly materials and earthly treasures is also small, and it has less impact on the practice system of the original Taoist sects of Taoism. The only problem is that they need faith to receive it."
Seeing Jinghui frowning slightly, Zhao Ran hurriedly said: "But compared with the trust they consume, I expect the trust they can create will be ten times or a hundred times. And we can also think of ways to increase the threshold for them to be punished.
, such as launching a competition for excellence and selecting the best candidates for awards every year.”
"Can I reach the state of harmony without practicing spiritual power?"
Zhao Ran said: "I don't know either, because I am just a practitioner. Perhaps it can be said that to the extent that I practice in the future, they will be able to achieve as well."
"What will happen if you reach Hedao and ascend in the future?"
"It's the same sentence, I don't know. How it will ascend, whether it will require faith to withstand the catastrophe, and build a rainbow bridge, no one knows. But in any case, if our sect can have a few more possibilities of union, it is not better than nothing.
Is it strong?"
"What will Zhiran do next?"
"I am the abbot of Xuanyuan Temple and Jiming Temple. I plan to teach the Dharma in Nanzhili to see if this cultivation system is applicable. In Songfan, I taught more than two hundred people. In Yingtian, I also taught
I will teach the Dharma to more than 200 people within my jurisdiction, and bring the number to 500. After that, I will focus on observing these 500 people to see how many people can successfully enter the Taoist realm, and then consider future matters based on the situation."
Soon, the three-person inquiry team ended the questioning. Taoist Mingyue was responsible for recording and took the transcript of the conversation to several people for review. Zhao Ran and others all approved and signed, and the conversation was considered complete.
This inquiry record will be sent to all true masters immediately for review. If there are any questions, Zhao Ran will be summoned again. Zhao Ran expressed his full cooperation.
Rong Niang was waiting outside, and Zhao Ran gave her a reassuring smile, so the two boarded the Yunming Lily again and flew straight to the sky.
Returning to Jiming Temple, Rong Niang went to clean up Jingyang Tower, while Zhao Ran rushed to Wenchang Temple, Xuantan Palace and other places to enter the visualization diagrams for Gu Tengjia, Leng Tengxing, Jiang Zhibiao, Lu Zhiyu and others, and waited for the guidance to be completed.
When they entered Taoism, Gan Shutong, Wang Zongyi, Liang Yougao and others came to visit them one after another.
Zhao Ran restarted the vassal mode in September, and took great pleasure in inserting visualization pictures into people in Yingtian. Including Zhang Lue, Zhang Juzheng, etc., everyone who was close to him was not left behind.
At the end of November, Zhao Ran couldn't bear the emperor's repeated urgings, and finally entered the palace, and entered the visualization chart for Emperor Longqing in Kunning Palace, including of course Feng Bao and Chen Hong.
The emperor wanted to know what he could do to get a lot of merit, so Zhao Ran gave him an idea: "How much income does your Majesty get every year?"
Feng Baodao replied: "Your Majesty has an annual income of 1.8 million taels."
Zhao Ran knew that there must be more than that, but he did not pursue it. Instead, he said: "If your majesty spends one-third of it every year to do good things personally, I think your majesty will definitely enter the golden elixir within ten years."
