Chapter 760 The Four Realms of Heaven and Man and Luck
"Disciple thanks the teacher for his kindness in preaching."
After closing his eyes and comprehending the mystery of the realm of heaven and man, Lin Ze opened his eyes and bowed to the Taoist Saint.
This thank you came from Lin Ze's heart. His grace was in preaching and enlightenment.
The Taoist Saint said with a smile on his lips: "If you are so polite, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand up straight in front of my master in the future, so I'd better avoid it a little."
After the first contact, after several exchanges of answers, Lin Ze found that the Taoist sage really didn't care about these common etiquette, so he replied: "The disciple should remember the teacher's teachings, but if the disciple has doubts in his mind, he should ask the teacher to answer them."
The Taoist Saint thought for a moment and then said slowly: "Master, I have observed that you have been in the situation for a long time. It is normal to have doubts in your heart. Just ask. If you can answer, I will answer. If you cannot answer, don't ask more questions."
"
Lin Ze's heart tightened when he heard this, not because there was any evasion in Dao Sheng's words, but because even Dao Sheng had scruples. It can be inferred that the water is so deep that it is unimaginable.
"Disciple, please spare me the opportunity to ask the teacher, what are the four realms of heaven and man?" Lin Ze took the lead in asking the question that concerned him most.
The Taoist Saint laughed and said: "You are very impatient. You have just been promoted to the realm of heaven and human, and you can't wait to take a step further."
Then his smile faded and he said slightly seriously: "When you practice a practice, you should take it slowly, step by step, build a solid foundation and accumulate experience, instead of aiming too high. You should not let you know about the subsequent realm too early."
"I think you are extremely talented and have just been promoted to heaven. You are in high spirits, so I will comply with your wishes and inform you in advance."
After speaking, he gently tapped his finger on Lin Ze's forehead, and countless messages poured in.
Lin Ze naturally closed his eyes and absorbed it slowly.
After a while, Lin Ze suddenly realized that although the realm of heaven and human was different from the previous eight levels, it was not completely separated to a certain extent.
To be precise, in addition to immortality, the Heavenly Realm is actually the continuation of the eighth-grade Divine Soul Realm.
The warrior had an enlightenment once when he was promoted to the eighth-level divine soul realm.
The realm of heaven and man is also about enlightening the Tao, but what you are enlightening is not only the Tao of heaven, but also planting your own Tao in the Tao of heaven and absorbing nutrients.
There are three thousand avenues, interpret them with your understanding and use them for your own use.
For example, if a warrior's own Tao is a seed, then the Tao of Heaven is a fertile and vast land.
You have to carefully examine this land of heaven to find a piece of land suitable for planting your seed, plant it, and let it take root and germinate until it blooms and bears fruit.
The first stage of heavenly being mainly involves seeing the land of heaven, becoming a legal "farmer", and possessing a seed that cannot yet be seen.
In the second realm of heaven and human beings, find your own seeds, plant them, and let them take root and sprout.
In the third realm of heaven and human beings, the road is much wider. If someone can make his path blossom and bear fruit, he can be regarded as the third realm.
If someone can understand more about the Great Dao and plant a botanical garden, it can also be considered the third realm.
The fourth realm of heavenly beings is a bit perverted. They can change their own way into someone else's way and plant it in the way of heaven.
In the same way, other people's ways can be used by them.
Just like the Confucian saint Confucius, Confucius was the founder of Confucianism and Taoism, but his core Tao was benevolence.
As a disciple of Confucius, Meng Ke understood righteousness from Confucianism and Taoism, and then Confucianism and Taoism had righteousness.
As Confucius and his disciples carried forward Confucianism and Taoism, it has developed to this day. Confucianism and Taoism include benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust, gentleness, courtesy, thrift, loyalty, filial piety, courage, respect and integrity...
The way of the Buddha is as good as that of the Confucian sages. It opens up a lineage of Buddhism and brings thousands of Buddhas back to the sect.
Comparatively speaking, the Taoist Sage is even more terrifying, because his Tao is the Tao and takes away all other people's paths. Others will either follow or have no way to go.
These are what Lin Ze just realized from the information sent by Taoist Saint.
The information was too complicated. Even if Lin Ze had Xiao Jin to help him, he could only comprehend so much at one time, such as how to condense his own way into seeds, find out, and plant them in the way of heaven.
How to make your own seeds take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit is still a mystery.
The road to seeking the truth is long and arduous, and we still need to understand it slowly.
After all, these things were still far away from him. Lin Ze threw them aside, opened his eyes, saluted to the Taoist Saint, and said, "Disciple, I have one more question."
"In the past, when I had contact with Confucian and Buddhist people, I often heard them mention the word "luck". Teacher Fangcai and his second senior brother also mentioned "luck" and even linked it with great progress in cultivation."
"May I ask the teacher, what is luck?"
Taoist Saint smiled slightly and said: "It seems that I have accepted a smart disciple this time, and the two questions I asked are closely related to me."
Lin Ze frowned and said: "If you are not smart enough, how can you be noticed by the teacher and be accepted as a disciple?"
The Taoist Saint laughed dumbly and tapped Lin Ze's forehead again, and a message was transmitted to him.
Lin Ze's face turned bitter and he came again.
Gritting his teeth to accept the news about luck, Lin Ze stopped thinking about asking the third question. His kidneys were limited and he couldn't bear it.
Although this method of transmitting information is convenient, the information that is transmitted to his mind every time is large and complex. Once or twice is still within the tolerance. If it happens too many times, Lin Ze is afraid that his mind will collapse.
The Taoist Saint seemed to see that Lin Ze had reached his limit, so he waved his hand gently and said, "Let's go and figure it out on our own. If you don't understand something, you can come and ask your teacher, or you can ask a few of your senior brothers for advice."
"By the way, your apprenticeship is considered a success as a teacher, but the Taoist Palace has its own rules. In three days, the Taoist Palace will hold your apprenticeship ceremony. Don't miss it."
"Teacher, please rest assured, this disciple will definitely keep this in mind," Lin Ze bowed and saluted, and left the back mountain to look for Xuanming.
Well, according to seniority, Xuan Ming should call him Patriarch now.
As Lin Ze walked, he was sorting out the theories about luck passed down to him by Taoist Saints.
Under the way of heaven, everything in the world, as long as it is alive, has its destiny.
People have it, monsters have it, and plants and trees have it too.
Those with strong luck will surely have an extraordinary life.
If a person is favored by luck, he will be unlucky in every possible way. He may become rich, become a prince, or become a prime minister, or his martial arts will advance by leaps and bounds.
If a monster is favored by luck, it can become the king of a clan and dominate the mountains and forests.
However, since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the human race has prospered and become the master of the world, and most of their luck has gathered on the human race.
In comparison, the luck of monsters, beasts and plants is almost nothing worth mentioning.
Under the way of heaven, everyone's fate is different at the beginning. Some people are born as princes, and some are born as untouchables.
But the way of heaven is constantly changing, and everyone's luck is not static. Some people will fall from the clouds due to the loss of luck.
Some people have become legends because of their sudden increase in luck.
The growth and loss of luck, apart from the part destined by God, are also about competition.
As the saying goes, my destiny is up to me and not God.
If you win the battle, your destiny changes, the frog becomes a prince, and the toad eats swan meat.
If you lose the fight, everything is over.
For heavenly beings, because they are favored by heaven, they have strong luck, which is incomparable to human beings.
If gods and humans can gain the favor of luck, the benefits will be great.
For example, it can help heavenly beings find their own "seeds" and plant them in the way of heaven.
It can be used as fertilizer to encourage your "seeds" to take root, germinate, and grow vigorously.
Of course, there are other wonderful functions, which need to be experienced personally and discovered slowly.
The so-called great changes in heaven and earth actually refer to changes in luck.
In each time period, the total amount of luck in the world is constant and will only flow from one person to another, leaving the overall situation unchanged.
But as each time period changes, the total amount of luck will rise and fall like a tide.
According to the calculations of Dao Sheng and others, the total amount of luck in the world will reach an unprecedented peak in the past ten thousand years in the near future.
It is more intense than it was ten thousand years ago.
This is why Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism will impatiently send people down from the sky and secretly make plans to compete for luck.
There are just two things that Lin Ze hasn't figured out yet: why do Taoists, Buddhists, and Confucians, and even other heavenly beings, leave the human world and go to heaven?
Why can't he see his luck?
Logically speaking, one can see the extent of one's own luck in the realm of heaven and humanity.
Otherwise, Zhuang Zhou would not have lost 10% of Qin's fortune at the expense of 10% of his own fortune.
Lin Ze wanted to turn around and go ask the saint again, but considering that he was a little dizzy, he finally stopped.
