Chapter 205 Nothing is missing, it is also a kind of trouble
"Everything you encounter on the 'Heart Refining Road' is just an illusion." The saint smiled and said, "It's just that the great master who built the 'Heart Refining Road' is too strong, and the illusion created is too realistic.
, and even incorporates many laws of reality, making it difficult for people to distinguish.”
"That's it." Zhong Wen suddenly realized.
Looking back and thinking about it carefully, he realized that the encounters along the way were very strange and had all kinds of unnatural atmosphere. If he had encountered them on ordinary days, he would have been wary, but at the time, he didn't know why he was convinced.
He couldn't help but feel disappointed when he thought that the beautiful woman in red, Zhang Cuihua, was not a real person.
Damn it, the sword I gave away!
Then, he suddenly reacted.
"How can you see through the mysterious magic of the ancient great power?" As if he guessed what Zhong Wen was thinking, the saint patted his shoulder gently, "Although I can't see the illusion in your eyes, I can't see it."
You can make a rough guess based on the reaction of the people who are tested, but I'm afraid it contains money, power, food, beauty and other temptations."
"Not bad." Zhong Wen nodded honestly.
"At your age, you should be full of curiosity about the world." The sage who heard the Tao asked puzzledly, "How can you resist so many temptations despite being so free from desires and demands?"
Except for the beautiful woman at the end, can all the other garbage be considered temptation?
Zhong Wen complained with great disdain in his heart, but said: "Although the following things are good, there are more important things waiting for me to do, and I won't have time to pay attention to them for a while."
The saint who heard the Tao showed an expression of "Sure enough," and was quite satisfied with Zhong Wen's answer: "It's not in vain that Xiaojie thinks so highly of you."
Ning Jie listened on the sidelines and was even more ashamed and at a loss. However, there was a hint of unspeakable tenderness in her eyes.
"The last test, is it a woman?" the saint then asked.
"Yes, she is a very beautiful woman." Zhong Wen replied honestly.
"There once was a Taoist Spirit Master in the Academy who tried to challenge the 'Heart Refining Road'." The saint who heard the Tao showed a trace of regret in his eyes, "He was almost reaching the top of the mountain, but he still failed at this last hurdle. Unexpectedly
But it’s because you, a worldly person, have succeeded in the challenge.”
"What is the Taoist Spirit Master?" Zhong Wen heard the word again and couldn't help but ask.
"The world only thinks that those who are above the heavenly wheel are spiritual masters, and those who go up to the realm of spiritual masters are saints." Hearing that the saint treated his disciples as if they were his own disciples, he did not show any impatience. "Who knows that the spiritual masters are also divided into two parts?"
It is impossible for an ordinary spiritual master to reach the realm of a saint even if he trains hard for two hundred years."
Zhong Wen knew that the saint was revealing some secrets unknown to the world, so he straightened his face and listened attentively.
"There is also a type of spiritual masters with higher talents who have realized their own great ways in the process of cultivation. They are called 'spiritual masters who have entered the Tao' by major holy places." The saint continued, "There is no one such spiritual master in a hundred. Not only is he powerful,
Far beyond ordinary spiritual masters, it also has the possibility to go further. The seven great saints in the world all once entered the Tao when they were in the realm of spiritual masters."
"Does one have to reach the realm of spiritual masters to find one's own path?" The figures of Li Qing and Xiao Wenjian appeared in Zhong Wen's mind.
"There were once some top geniuses who realized the existence of Tao while in the Heavenly Wheel Realm." The saint who heard the Tao shook his head, "It's just that such geniuses are rare and have not been seen in the academy for a long time."
"Thank you, sage, for clarifying my doubts." Zhong Wen bowed slightly, "The boy is eager to see you, and after begging in every possible way, Sister Ning remembered the past friendship, so she offered to help. She also asked the sage not to blame her, but to shoulder the responsibility.
The boy is willing to bear it alone."
"Brother Zhong." Ning Jie burst into tears and was quite moved, "It doesn't have to be like this. This is of my own free will."
"Okay, okay, don't act like this in front of me." The saint took a mouthful of dog food and shook his head helplessly, "Since you risked your life to go through the 'Heart Refining Road'
, I naturally want to express something, and let the matter of hanging around go away."
"Thank you, saint." Zhong Wen was overjoyed. He looked at Ning Jie and saw this elegant woman looking at him. Joy, gratitude, shyness and other emotions filled her beautiful eyes. He couldn't say no.
It is as tender as water and as beautiful as food.
"You have an extraordinary temperament at a young age and have outstanding attainments in theology and literature." Hearing the Tao, Saint He Yan said happily, "You actually passed the test of the stone tablet in front of the mountain gate with your heavenly wheel cultivation. It's worth listening to you.
Why are you so anxious to see me?"
"The Daqian Empire is in turmoil, and the Xiao family intends to overthrow the imperial power and replace it." Zhong Wen said.
"The Holy Land cannot interfere with the change of imperial power in the secular world." The saint frowned and said, "This is a rule jointly established by the seven saints."
"If it weren't for the involvement of the Dark Temple, how could this kid dare to come to Wendao Academy for help?" Zhong Wen said with a bitter face.
"Oh, how dare the Dark Temple interfere with the secular government of the Daqian Empire?" The light in the saint's eyes flashed away after hearing the news, "Do you have any evidence?"
"I have fought against people from the Dark Temple several times. They are good at using a kind of black flame..." Zhong Wen described the characteristics of Mr. Xu, Mr. Cang and others in detail.
"It is in line with the characteristics of the 'Dark Spirit Scripture'." The saint said and closed his eyes, as if he was sensing something.
After a moment, his eyes suddenly widened, his pupils shone brightly, and he exuded an indescribable aura, as if the wrath of the sky had descended on the world, or like an ancient giant with the sky above his head and the earth under his feet, looking down at the world with his eyes.
His eyes scanned all things in the world. At this moment, all living things seemed so small, helpless and trembling.
This momentum was not directed at Zhong Wen, but he still felt that his legs and feet were weak, and he had the urge to kneel on the ground and worship.
As expected, the power of the Holy Spirit is unpredictable. While we were chatting, a wave of pressure suddenly appeared. Who could stand it?
Zhong Wen cursed endlessly and made up his mind to wait for this to happen. He must stay as far away from the Holy Land as possible, otherwise it will be detrimental to his heart health.
"In the Daqian Empire, so many people from the Dark Temple have sneaked in." Hearing that the saint's breath was gone, a stern look flashed in his eyes, "I have been in seclusion for too long, and someone actually came to the door."
"You...can feel it?" Zhong Wen was surprised.
"At my level of cultivation, I can sense the movement of most of the empire." The saint heard the news in a calm tone, as if he was talking about something trivial, "The skills practiced in the Dark Temple have distinctive characteristics, how can they hide it from me? "
Then why the hell have you allowed people to be arrogant on your own territory for so long...
Zhong Wen was a little helpless to complain, and suddenly felt that such an earth-shattering great existence as a saint might not be reliable.
Hearing what the sage was talking about, I also felt that there was some illogical logic, so I couldn't help but add: "I feel too many things every day, and over time I can't help but get a little bored. I always block my spiritual consciousness on weekdays, and try not to Go explore what is right and wrong outside the academy."
A look of surprise appeared on Zhong Wen's face, and then his heart moved: "Can spiritual consciousness be shielded on its own?"
When he was intimate with Leng Wushuang and Shangguan Junyi in Piaohua Palace, he would always be detected by Lin Zhiyun's spiritual consciousness, which made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"When you are promoted to Spirit Master, you will naturally be able to do it." The saint who heard the Tao replied casually.
It seems that the palace owner sister no longer has to listen to my fun in the room, and I don’t know if she has chosen to block it.
Zhong Wen watched the saint's mouth open and close, but his mind was filled with random and strange thoughts.
"This matter is caused by my negligence. I will take charge of the matter at the Dark Temple." When the saint heard the word "Dark Temple", his tone was very calm, "Those old guys in the academy I don't like to take care of things either. If you hadn't come to report the news, I would have been kept in the dark and allowed the Dark Temple to dominate. I owe you a favor this time."
"Don't dare." Zhong Wen said politely.
"If you have any requests, just put them forward." Wen Dao Sage and Yan Yuese said, "As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you. It is a small thank you."
Zhong Wen thought for a while and said, "When things outside become clearer, I wonder if I can come to the Academy to read classical books?"
Zhong Wen was still quite greedy for the vast collection of ancient classics in the Wendao Academy. After all, the "Xinhua Tibetan Scripture Pavilion" in his mind was still waiting for food.
"You are the first person to open the stone tablet. I originally planned to open the ancient books in the academy to you." The saint shook his head slightly and said, "You can think about it again and see if you have any other requirements."
Zhong Wen couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Although one of the seven most powerful people in the world had made a promise, he didn't know what to ask for, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
It turns out that not wanting anything is a worry.
It's rare for a saint to speak. If I ask for spiritual crystals, will he kick me nine days away?
Zhong Wen frowned, feeling very distressed.
"You don't have to be scrupulous. You can make any request." Seeing his hesitation, the sage Wen Dao said calmly, "As long as you ask, even if you want to marry Xiaojie, I will not refuse."
Ning Jie was startled when she heard this. She didn't know how Zhong Wen would answer. She was a little panicked, but also had a hint of expectation. She was confused for a moment.
"Sister Ning is a living person with blood and passion, thoughts and soul. She is not an object, so how can she be treated as a thank you gift?" Zhong Wen shook his head and said, "If I want to marry her, I will pursue it myself without any effort.
The saint takes the trouble."
"With Xiaojie's beauty and talent, I don't know how many people asked to marry her but couldn't, but you can actually endure it." The saint sighed in admiration, "You are worthy of being a person who has passed the 'path of refining the heart', with this determination
, it’s really breathtaking.”
Ning Jie was touched and admired after hearing Zhong Wen's answer. Her autumn-like eyes were full of tenderness. The fairy sister who was always cold and elegant was so charming and shy at this moment, which made Zhong Wen's heart go straight to her eyes.
Jumping wildly, even the bones will melt.
Is it too late to change your tune now?
He thought with regret, recalling the beauties of Leng Wushuang and Shangguan Junyi in his mind, and his mind gradually calmed down.
"If you can't think of it at the moment, then you owe it to me." After hearing the saint's easy-going attitude, all the elders in the Holy Land would be shocked if they saw it, "If you have any love words with Xiaojie, please finish it quickly.
There is a fierce fight in the imperial capital, if we go too late, I'm afraid something will change."
After that, the saint's figure disappeared from the place without any warning, leaving the young man and woman looking at each other.
Seeing Ning Jie's gentle and affectionate eyes, Zhong Wen's heart tightened.
Am I...incurring a love debt again?
He deeply hates that his charm is too great, making it difficult for the beauties in the world to resist...
