"The lamp of the heart has just been completed, and it's ready."
Ding Zhangdian looked at Wang Fu with joy. The first step of getting started was very smooth. It was indeed not an ordinary qualification.
However, he was not so amazing. The twelve disciples before him were all highly qualified, and it was not a problem at all to get started.
"Wang Fu, the key to keeping the lanterns is the word "Shou"
"The path of spiritual practice is filled with difficulties and dangers, and there are always evil winds and darkness, trying to extinguish your light and cut off the hope of light."
"Keeping the lantern means guarding the light, holding on to hope, killing all invading enemies, and eliminating all disasters and disasters."
"If you want to see light in the dark night, you can only walk forward with a lantern."
Wang Fu stared at the light in his palm. It was so soft and weak that it seemed like a gust of wind could blow it out.
This lamp is called "Calamity Fire Rebirth", which means it will survive hundreds of calamities without breaking down and come back countless times after being reborn.
"Lamp-keeping, in addition to this core natal law, there are also various spells, which form the key to 'keeping'."
Ding Zhangdian sighed, "The master of the temple has an order. I can't accept you for the time being. I have to teach you the lamp-keeping method first. The remaining core secret method has to wait until five years. No, only four years. After four years, I will officially accept you."
Become a disciple and teach the secret method."
"Lu Laosan's fire talisman, without the lamp-keeping method, is only as powerful as an ordinary one. But now that you light the heart lamp and practice the lamp-keeping method, you will get twice the result with half the effort."
Ding Zhangdian called to Wang Fu and said, "Try the wind talisman first and see if there are any changes."
After Wang Fu heard this thought, his heart moved. The lamp in his heart hid his body, but it was hidden in his chest. A little light was hidden but never came out.
"Gale!"
The most basic gale spell.
As soon as Wang Fugang started using it, he felt his heart lamp tremble and felt that the surrounding air was a little more lively than before.
This is the change brought about by the lamp-keeping method.
The next moment, the wind rose from the ground of the hall and turned into a howling wind.
Wang Fu was stunned, "This power is more than twice as strong as before."
The core skills really live up to their reputation.
Previously, he practiced the Turtle Breath Kung Fu, which was not suitable at all. He only thought that such power was normal, but now it seems that he was wrong.
The other Nigendo disciples practice the breathing and breathing technique at an average level.
Only then did Wang Fu realize how important it was for him to practice the lamp-keeping method.
More importantly...
Wang Fu suddenly realized that with the help of the heart lamp, the formation and casting of many spells could completely save a lot of steps and speed up the work.
"Wang Fu, please remember that the lamp-keeping method is unparalleled and will greatly benefit the progress of your practice. I will wait for you to explore it slowly in the future."
Wang Fu fumbled for a moment and suddenly thought that now that he had been taught the core skills, he had come into contact with the key core. Could he ask some secrets of the sect?
"Dingzhang Palace, I have a question. Our Leihuo Palace practices the inheritance of the Five Emperors, while the Sanqing Palace practices the Three Pure Ones. How did the two come together?"
This is the biggest mystery in Wang Fu's mind so far.
The two schools of the Three Qing Dynasties and the Five Emperors have always been distinct from each other due to their incompatibility in ideas.
From the perspective of Yunyang Temple, the disciples of the two halls were as powerful as fire and water, and there was no possibility of peaceful coexistence.
The master of the temple is also a member of the Sanqing Sect. Why did he originally set up a Thunder Fire Hall to worship the Five Emperors in Yunyang Temple?
"Wang Fu, you have learned the lantern-keeping technique, and you can be considered a core disciple of my Thunder Fire Palace. It doesn't hurt to let you know about this past incident."
"Yunyang Temple is originally a Taoist temple in Yunzhong, which was the leader of the Three Qing Dynasties. The old man who leads the temple is an outstanding figure in the Taoist Temple in Yunzhong who has the opportunity to ascend to the position of true immortal."
"However, he failed in the competition and had no hope of becoming a true immortal for the rest of his life, so he asked to leave Yunzhong Taoist Temple and came here to create his own Yunyang Taoist sect."
It turns out that Yunyang Temple is originally the inheritance of the Three Pure Ones, so what about the Thunder Fire Palace?
"Thunder Fire Palace is the result of my friendship with the temple master."
"We, the Thunder Fire Palace, inherit the secret scriptures of True Lord Lihuo from the South. We belong to the Five Emperors' sect, but we are from the True Immortal Palace directly inherited from the Five Emperors."
When he heard about the True Immortal Mansion, Wang Fu twitched in his heart. It seemed that the old ghost was also born in the True Immortal Mansion, and he still had the Northern Secret Code hidden in his body.
"The True Immortal Mansion contains the most complete inheritance of the Five Emperors, which is divided into five major schools: Black Water, Green Wood, Platinum, Red Fire and True Earth."
"Among them, Zhentu is in the center, and the position of palace master is passed down from generation to generation. As time goes by, the other four branches become dissatisfied, and this is how the Five Directions Rebellion emerged."
Ding Zhangdian obviously didn’t want to mention the chaos in the five directions anymore, so he skipped it in a hurry.
"After the Five Directions Rebellion, the vitality of the True Immortal Mansion was severely damaged. Only three branches, Aoki, Black Water and True Earth, were left. Most of the secret codes and secrets were scattered. The other two branches traveled far away and barely kept their inheritance."
Having said this, Ding Zhangdian said loudly, "I, the Thunder Fire Palace, are the remnants of the orthodox Red Fire, the direct descendants of the Five Emperors."
"I think back then, I was alone, carrying the heavy responsibility of reviving the red fire inheritance. I made countless enemies and was on the verge of life and death several times. Finally, I met the master of the temple. He single-handedly rescued me and invited me to join us to establish Yunyang Temple.
"
Having said this, Ding Zhangdian's eyes revealed his nostalgia for the past.
Wang Fu also didn't expect that the headmaster in front of him was actually a senior figure in the Taoist temple.
"Wang Fu, listen carefully. Yunyang Temple is the root, and the Thunder Fire Palace is the branches and leaves that grow from the root. If the root does not exist, you and I will still be the lonely ghosts we were before."
"I would like to remind you again that it is not an exaggeration to have any competition or conflict with the disciples of Sanqing Palace, but you must not destroy the foundation of Yunyang Temple to settle down and live a life. This is the final bottom line."
"You have an unorthodox personality and are unconventional. You have done many amazing things. In addition, your talents and qualifications are the best choice. It is easy to make meritorious service and receive awards. But if you make a mistake or don't make a mistake, you will definitely commit a catastrophic disaster.
.”
"If one day you dare to risk the disapproval of the world, I will personally take action and kill you."
Wang Fu heard the seriousness of his tone and said hurriedly, "The Master of the Palace Mingjian, the disciples will never dare to have second thoughts."
It seems that this headmaster is also a discerning person who can see through his own character and be alert in advance.
However……
Wang Fu was not convinced in his heart, and he looked down on me too much. I have been a man who has passed every ideological and moral class since I was a child. I may not have perfect scores, but I have always been hovering on the passing line.
Who would believe that I will become evil in the future?
After seeing Wang Fu's performance, Ding Zhangdian felt satisfied and nodded.
When a disciple becomes a disciple, the first step is to teach the Dharma and clarify his virtue.
To clarify one's virtue is to explain to him the importance of moral character and standardize his behavior in the future.
Ding Zhangdian also attaches great importance to tradition when recruiting disciples, which is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.
"Disciple Wang Fu, I will keep this in mind from now on."
Wang Fu bowed down again.
For most of the remaining day, Wang Fu stayed in this sea of lanterns, experiencing the changes brought about by the lanterns in his heart and comprehending the essence of keeping words.
To keep the lantern is to keep the Tao. Whether it is to be a conscientious lantern keeper who walks on thin ice, or to be a domineering pioneer who sweeps away dissatisfaction, the path chosen is also different depending on the personal practice philosophy, so it cannot be generalized.
Ding Zhangdian obviously understood this truth, and did not avoid too much interference afterwards, leaving Wang Fu free time to understand.
