What is it like to be a saint?

Chapter 667 Saints preach (2)

The saint Laojun and the saint Nuwa sat upright on the futons transformed by the auspicious clouds, calming their minds and waiting solemnly.

The sage's pupils also quietly looked at Tong Tian who was sitting upright on the cloud cluster above him with his lapel in front of him.

But he only felt that the figure of the Jiejiao saint was vague, as if he was not there.

Saint Laojun and Saint Nuwa immediately looked at each other, and they both saw surprise from each other's sight!

"The cause and effect of Tongtian..." The two saints finally realized that the cause and effect of the leader of Tongtian had faded from their perception until now.

It's like the entire Three Realms, there is no Jiejiao sage anymore!

Unexpectedly, he is right in front of you now!

Just sit on top of the clouds!

This discovery made the hearts of the two saints tremble uncontrollably.

"Extraordinary!"

The same word, rising from the thoughts of the two sages, immediately stirred up boundless waves.

"Could it be that Tongtian has reached the pass of the road of detachment?" Laojun sage thought in his heart: "How did he do it?"

Obviously, thousands of years ago, Tongtian was only powerful in killing and killing, and had many spiritual treasures.

However, today, Tongtian may have reached the state of 'returning to nothing'!

This means that in a sense, Tongtian is already the incarnation of Dao!

how can that be?

"No...not right..." Laojun sage thought in his heart: "Tongtian hasn't reached that level yet!"

"He hasn't reached the three realms of 'Yi', 'Greek', and 'Wei' yet!"

"Not to mention that the Dao fruit has not been tempered to the level of 'if you don't pay it above, you won't be ignorant below it'!"

In the past, before the Daoist joined the Tao, he set aside time to answer the questions of the four disciples.

Laojun then asked a question: "Please be merciful, teacher, to release the disciples, etc., after proving the Tao, the matter of detachment!"

At that time, Taoist ancestor sighed, and said leisurely: "Detachment... the poor Taoist also failed!"

"Just tempering the Dao fruit to the state of 'the top is not handed over, and the bottom is not ignorant', no matter how difficult it is to make progress, we can only retreat and seek the next best..."

The old gentleman bowed his head again: "Pray for the teacher to explain, what is meant by 'not paying above', and what is meant by 'not ignoring below'?"

"How should disciples do it?"

Taoist ancestor raised the dust, and sang a leisurely promise, saying: "What is above the metaphysical is called the Tao, and what is below the meta is called the weapon!"

"Tao and utensils are like yang and yin. A solitary yin does not grow, and a solitary yang does not grow..."

"That's why, the so-called proving the way is the cultivation of the way and tools!"

Listening to Daozu's lectures in the past, Laojun Yuanshen, who was about to prove the Tao at that time, naturally began to understand and feel the profound content contained in the subtle words and great meanings of Daozu's speech.

Therefore, the old gentleman at that time felt a bright and magnificent vast scroll.

The two qi of yin and yang are mighty and powerful, filling the universe, colliding and merging constantly, and deriving the qi of the five elements.

The Qi of the Five Elements circulates endlessly, shaping all things.

Then it settled to the bottom of the heaven and earth, fell into the earth, and piled up thickly.

It was also at that time that Laojun 'enlightened' and 'understood'.

He understood the artistic conception hidden in Daozu's humble words and great righteousness.

The metaphysical "Tao" is the primordial spirit, thoughts, and souls, these illusory things.

The physical utensils are the physical body, treasures, and skills.

When a sage proves the Tao, he needs to prove Hunyuan, practice Wuji, and from Wuji, he can prove "one".

And Hunyuan is the perfect fusion of Dao and Qi at its peak.

Wuji is the consummation of yin and yang under the extreme conditions of Tao and utensils.

'One' is the fruit of sagehood.

Tao and utensils communicate with each other, from the perfection of yin and yang, the 'fruit' produced in the five-element cycle.

It is the key to unlock transcendence, and also the door to the ultimate mystery of heaven and earth.

It is also precisely that when the "enlightenment" at that time allowed the sage to prove the Tao, the Tao fruit was condensed into black and white, and the two forms of Taiji, Tao followed nature, and became the core of adult teaching.

However, at that time, Daozu also said other words that Laojun and the sage could not fully understand and comprehend at that time.

"After proving the Tao and becoming holy, for a saint, the Tao and the utensil are already different!"

"At this time, the saint himself is the weapon, and the heaven and the earth are the way!"

"The road of detachment is also opened because of this!"

"Do you still remember the truth that I and you said when you first came to Zixiao Palace?"

"The name of turning a blind eye is: Yi!"

"Listen to the unknown saying: Xi!"

"It's hard to get a name: Micro!"

"Here, the heavens and the earth, and the avenue!"

"It's also the way of a saint!"

This is why the sage has no name and the sage does nothing.

A sage can be anywhere and everywhere as long as he needs to.

As long as he wants, the sage can let the three realms listen to him, or let no one 'hear' or 'see' traces of the sage.

Under the saint, no one can touch the hem of the saint's clothes.

Where the virtual and the real are, where the thoughts are, where the Tao is.

Where the saint is!
Because the sage is already the embodiment of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

The sage can be grass, stone, water, air.

It can also be flames, thunder and lightning, warm sun...

The sage incarnates everything, the sage controls everything, the sage controls everything and occupies everything.

Only a saint can fight a saint.

This is not just a gap in personality, but a gap in cultivation.

It is still the gap between the understanding and mastery of the yin and yang of the world and the five elements.

This is like a monkey in the mountains who can crack nuts with a stone.

But this monkey couldn't hurt a monk who came from the sky and held a law enforcement weapon anyway.

Even if this monk is only building a foundation.

However, the monkey will never be able to touch the corner of the monk's clothes.

As long as the monk wants to, he can even not show up from the beginning to the end, so that one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand such monkeys will die in a daze!

These truths were gradually realized and realized by Laojun and Sage in the long years to come.

But at that time, the Laojun sage seemed to understand but not understand, and seemed to know but not to know.

I can only guard my soul, engrave the Taoist ancestor's "small words and great righteousness" seal into my thoughts, and keep it in my soul.

Among them, some old gentlemen have not yet digested them, and still retain their thoughts and things in their souls.

"After proving the Tao, go one step further, further smelting the Tao and the utensils, and giving birth to the 'two' from the 'one', from the nameless to the famous..."

"It's the state I was in when I preached in Zixiao Palace in the past!"

"I will unite the Dao today, and from now on there will be no grand jun in the Three Realms, only the sages of the Dao of Heaven..."

"It is returning to nothing!"

"If the top doesn't pay, the bottom won't be ignorant?"

"It's the state when Pindao tried to escape, but failed!"

"Wait, take a closer look!"

Daozu's avenue body began to manifest.

Chaotic, hazy, seemingly absent, vaguely absent.

But it is clear and clear.

Just, indescribable, indescribable.

It wasn't until after proving the Tao that the old gentleman and sage understood that it was the Tao.

Avenue!

Mysterious and mysterious, wonderful and wonderful way!

It is the god of the valley who is immortal, and the root of heaven and earth!

So, it doesn't last forever, and it doesn't work hard.

Daozu was in such a state back then.

He is the Dao ancestor and the Dao.

The avenue is the way, and the ancestor of the Tao is the tool.

Dao and utensils are integrated, existence and non-existence coexist.

As a result, the realm of 'if you don't pay at the top, you can't be ignorant at the bottom' has been reached.

Be with the Dao and coexist with all things.

But it is not in the Three Realms, it is above Yin and Yang.

He has escaped from the barriers of heaven and earth, far from the shackles of cause and effect.

but……

Daozu did not succeed in detachment!

To be precise, he was only half successful.

Therefore, he had to settle for the next best thing in order to conform to the way of heaven.

Recalling the past, and looking at Tongtian in front of him now.

Laojun Shengren's heart was shaking.

He felt that the undigested "small words and big meanings" that he had engraved in his soul and thoughts in the past, had a trace of loosening.

"Mercy! Mercy!" Lao Jun couldn't help but praise him.

"The stone of the mountain can attack jade!"

"Just witnessing Tongtian's current Dao body, poor Dao, will benefit endlessly!"

"If you can listen to Tongtian's preaching, I am afraid that the poor can digest most of the trivial words and righteousness of the teacher in the past!"

"At that time, Pindao can really pick up the pen and write the true scriptures and morals of my human teaching!"

"Think people teach the general outline!"

"In this way, Pindao should be able to produce fame from the unknown, and prove the 'two' from the 'one'!"

There are many thoughts, thousands of thoughts.

But for the saint, it's just a snap of the fingers.

Because the sage only needs to think, and the thought can be calculated or deduced in a breath, and it takes a hundred years for the golden fairy to figure out the mystery.

After snapping his fingers, when Laojun Shengren looked at Tongtian sitting on the futon again.

Feelings and perceptions are completely different.

"Today, even if Tongtian has not been able to prove the three realms of 'Yi', 'Xi', and 'Wei', I am afraid that it is very close, and it is even close to the door!"

According to the mystery that Laojun learned from the sage's subtle words and great righteousness.

These are the three realms of 'Yi', 'Greek' and 'Wei'.

In fact, they are all one body with two sides, yin and yang are mixed.

As the saying goes, the opposite is the movement of the Tao, and the weak is the use of the Tao.

In the understanding of Laojun and Sage, Tongtian is probably close to, understands, and sees the mysteries of the Dao that can be seen and touched by him.

But he probably hasn't realized the mystery of it yet, and transformed it into his own.

Because, if it reaches such a state.

It's the same as when Taoist ancestor preached in Zixiao Palace in the past.

The Zixiao Palace preached, but the Taoist ancestor set the pattern of the six sages in the future.

This is the law for heaven and earth!
we can even say……

I am both heaven and earth!

Obviously, Tongtian is far behind now.

If he has reached such a state, with a temper that reaches heaven, how can he be polite to Yuan Shi and the two sages of the West?
I am afraid that it will directly reverse the cause and effect, or even turn the effect into the cause.

Free his disciples, one by one, from the cause and effect of the past.

Even if it can't, at least, it can forcibly change the laws of heaven and earth, and make Chanjiao and Western religion bow their heads!

More importantly, Laojun understands.

Now, it is already a world of humanity.

The torrent of humanity swept across the Three Realms, and the perception of heaven and man was everywhere.

Today, it is no longer the old days.

As long as you have enough cultivation, accumulated enough, and enough merit, you can prove the way and break through the realm.

In this era of humanity, the fruit of the sage inevitably becomes a part of the connection between heaven and man.

So, the sage wants to go one step further.

Taoism is needed as a 'device'.

Tao and utensils complement each other, sublimate each other, and achieve each other.

This is the best time.

Because saints can achieve detachment through Taoism.

He will no longer be like Daozu, who is on the verge of failure.

He had to give up his ego, merge with the Dao, and become a sage of heaven.

In theory, a sage only needs to sublimate his orthodoxy into a celestial dynasty.

Then you can ascend like a monk, detached from the shackles of heaven and earth, break all restrictions, and achieve true tranquility!

However, now is also the worst of times.

Because, since the Human Emperor Tribulation, the saints have observed and witnessed through the two Huiyuan.

They have clearly understood how difficult it is to sublimate the orthodoxy!

Ji Zhou Taoism, who explained and taught, lived in the human world for a full 36 years, and finally ended in an end where rituals collapsed, music was broken, cause and effect were mixed, and karma was overflowing.

Even if, there is a reason for explaining his own calculations.

Its difficulty is enough to surprise the saint!
However, Laojun knows at least one thing: Tongtian's orthodoxy in the world may be very prosperous.

But he was far from unifying Nanzhan Buzhou.

If Nanzhan Buzhou failed to unify, Taoist ancestors could not really germinate.

Not even a dynasty!

It's just a moral embryo.

Obviously, a Taoist embryo cannot sublimate the Dao fruit of a sage.

Not to mention, take that crucial step from 'one' to two, from unknown to famous!
With this thought in mind, the saint Laojun and the saint Nuwa looked at each other again, then nodded slightly to greet the saint.

At the moment when the eyes meet, the thoughts of the two saints have already exchanged cognition with each other.

"Junior Sister Nuwa, although she is a sage of the demon sect, she has a different understanding of the Dao of heaven and earth than I do, and her understanding of the trivial words and righteousness of the teacher's lectures in the past is not close to my understanding..."

"However... its views are probably similar to mine!"

Three thousand avenues, the same destination by different paths.

Although the paths of all saints are different, the end point and pursuit are the same—transcendence!
So, opinions can vary.

But cognition and feeling are the same.

"The current realm of Tongtian should be the teacher before the Zixiao Palace preached after the robbery of the Dragon Han Dynasty..."

"The fault is not due to the existence of the induction between heaven and man. I am afraid that Tongtian is now able to legislate for heaven and earth like his teacher in the past, and exercise the authority of the three realms, ordering freely!"

"No...no..."

Laojun Sage suddenly became enlightened, his thoughts kept beating, and his soul was violently shaken.

At this moment, a thing that had been ignored or even forgotten by the sage before broke free from the dusty divine sense.

Immediately manifest in thought.

"Who said that in the prehistoric times of the past, there was no such thing as orthodoxy?"

"Zixiao Palace preached!!!"

Before today, this thing that had been deliberately ignored or forgotten by Laojun's thoughts and Taoist heart, was finally discovered by him.

Laojun knew that this meant that some of the dust on his Daoguo had been blown away.

Thus, these things that were deliberately covered up by the dust were exposed and known to him.

"The teacher preached three thousand times in Zixiao Palace in the past... Isn't it a way to establish orthodoxy?"

"However, this way, because the human civilization is the carrier and lacks the blessing of the torrent of humanity, it seems a bit weak!"

"But teacher, obviously it is through the 'primary orthodoxy' of preaching, that the Tao fruit can be completed to the state of 'the upper part is not paid, and the lower part is not ignorant'!"

Thinking of this, Laojun's sage's many perplexities were immediately resolved.

And new ideas are born.

"So, Xuanmen is the teacher's orthodoxy!"

Laojun sage became serious.

"No wonder Yuanshi has always been angry with Tongtian!"

"Is it because the teacher left Hunyuan Fuchen to Tongtian?"

"Too!"

"Yuan Shi has always had a noble personality, how could he be so stimulated?"

The old man didn't care much about it.

Because, the way people teach is to be quiet and do nothing, it is not daring to be the first in the world, it is the way of the weak, it is not to fight!
In Dao's heart, he thought brokenly.

Laojun frowned quietly.

"This Tongtian, why don't you start talking?"

"Ten tens of breaths of time have passed!"

So, Laojun raised his head suspiciously again, and stared at Saint Nuwa.

The thoughts of the two saints exchanged their guesses silently.

"Senior Brother Tongtian, is it because you have doubts that what you have said is too difficult and mysterious, and you are afraid that it will be difficult for the immortals to understand?"

This is the view of the sage Nuwa on this.

The old gentleman thought: "Tongtian has always had a good face, and now he is hesitating, maybe he is brewing something that will shake the three worlds?"

Although the two sages have different views, they both believe that their seniors (senior brothers) will be fine if they don't speak, and if they speak, it will be a shocking theory of the great way.

But the two saints didn't know that at this moment, sitting on the futon made of clouds, the seniors (senior brothers) they knew had already panicked a lot.

the reason is simple.

Although the old god taught him the supernatural power of 'speaking in a small way'.

He probably learned too.

But when he sat down on the futon, he didn't know, what should he say?

Two 'sages' of the same level are on the side.

He definitely can't talk about those old gods who taught him Taoism and supernatural powers or his own little understanding of it.

This is trickery!

He also has no way to talk about mathematics and physics like in Huaguo.

"What should I do?" Xu Ji's anxiety was no different from that of ants on a hot pot.

But at this moment, he had a flash of inspiration.

"Yes!"

"I can talk about this!"
