Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 917 Star Official’s Practice Rules

Whether to stay in the mortal world is actually related to the road of practice.

What's the reason here?
Master asked Xu Zhiqiong: "Do you know that second-grade cultivators should have a star palace?"

Xinggong must know about it. Xu Zhiqiong has been to Xinggong, and he also knows the significance of Xinggong to Xingguan. Taibo has put in countless efforts for a Xinggong.

The master raised his eyebrows very temptingly, and said with a smile, "Zhiqiong, do you want a star palace?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded, expressing that he wanted it very much.

"That's right," the master said with a satisfied smile, "as long as you break away from the mortal world, live in the star palace, be infused with the atmosphere of the star palace, and accumulate your talents for a few years, you will naturally become a star. "

As long as you leave the mortal world and stay in the star palace, you can naturally become a star.

This route is perfect!

But Xu Zhiqiong has a question: "Where does the star palace come from?"

The master smiled: "That's easy to say, just take a look at how many houses there are in the Xingxiu Corridor?"

How many houses are there?
"Master, do you mean...a room and a star palace?" Xu Zhiqiong was shocked.

Master raised his eyebrows again, very tempting.

Tai Bu risked his life for a star palace.

Master has too many star palaces to count!

This is too extravagant!

Is this old guy lying to me?

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Master, I have been to the Xinggong. It is very big, even bigger than the imperial palace. No room can compare to it."

This is not a joke, Xu Zhiqiong only left a small part of the star palace of the evil star, but the area is much larger than the Daqing Palace of the imperial palace.

Xu Zhiqiong has also been to Taibu's star palace, and every time he goes, Taibu will change to a new cave, never repeating the same.

Jiuniang's inn doesn't seem very big, but Xu Zhiqiong has checked it out, and at his speed, he can't get to the end of the hour.

The size of the star palace is not small.

But looking at the Xingxiu Corridor, not to mention the other rooms, but only the main hall of the master, there are only two rooms one mile away and one outside. How can this be compared with the Xinggong Palace?
The master smiled and said, "Do you think the star palace here is small? Just follow me!"

Master took Xu Zhiqiong to the bedroom.

Xu Zhiqiong is no stranger to this bedroom, he has painted many plum blossoms for his master here.

With a wave of master's hand, a secret door suddenly opened on the wall.

The master led Xu Zhiqiong into the secret door, and behind the secret door was a magnificent hall.

Xu Zhiqiong looked across the hall, exhausted his eyesight, and saw a black shadow.

He looked up at the dome of the main hall, which was only outlined and shrouded in layers of mist.

There are layers of steps on the surrounding walls, and there is a circle of corridors every ten steps.

There are neatly arranged doors on the long corridor, and Xu Zhiqiong doesn't know how many rooms there are in this hall because the distance is covered by shadows and fog.

Master asked, "Zhiqiong, do you still feel small?"

"Master's main hall is naturally not small, but other places..."

The master's eyes became more and more ambiguous: "The other places are about the same size as the main hall, and there are several star palaces, which are even bigger than the main hall.
You have been to Xingyuan Hall and Xingwei Palace before, you can choose one of them, if these two are not to your liking, I will show you elsewhere. "

Master is so generous today!
Xu Zhiqiong said with joy on his face: "Let's go to the Shenyin Hall to have a look!"

"Crazy!" Master yelled, "Shenyin Hall is not allowed!"

Xu Zhiqiong also knew that the Shenyin Hall was not good, but he really didn't want to stay in the Star Palace forever.

"If I choose the star palace here, can I still go to the mortal world?"

"If it is a place of Taoism, such as the Zuozaifu, the Department of Rewarding Good, the Department of Punishment, Zhonglangyuan, and Yilangyuan, you can still go there, but you can no longer go to other places."

You can only go to the place where the door is.

This made Xu Zhiqiong unable to accept it.

"If you practice like this, how many years will you have to stay in the star palace?"

"It depends on your understanding. It can be as short as 500 or 50 years, or as long as [-] years. You are very talented. In [-] years, you may be able to cultivate to the stars."

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head again and again: "Master, I really can't let go of the world."

The master sighed, took Xu Zhiqiong back to the front hall, and said in silence for a long time: "If you really can't let go of the mundane world, there is also a path of practice, but other paths are not so open."

"Master, let's talk."

"You can bring a dead and silent star palace back to the starry sky in the mortal world. During this period, you have to slowly get in touch with the star palace and infect each other. It can also help you become a star constellation, but you should know the hardships of cultivation. .”

This is not the way of Tai Bu.

It was indeed a bit difficult.

"The dead star palace, where can I find it?"

The master said: "Punish the evil division in the first place of Taoism."

Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "Isn't this just a thousand times to punish evildoers?"

The master nodded and said: "The end of the Qiancheng Punishment Department is the Rewarding Department, the end of the Rewarding Department is the Zuzaifu, and the end of the Zhongzaifu is the Star Palace. With your current cultivation, it is not difficult to find the Star Palace and rebuild the Star Palace." , It’s just a matter of money, you are a man who can make money, so I don’t need to point out this matter.”

"It's easy to talk about money." Xu Zhiqiong nodded repeatedly, "If you practice like this, can you go to the mortal world?"

"You can go to the place of the Taoist gate. Outside the Taoist gate, you must have special means and sacrifices to go there. You can no longer interfere with the worldly affairs."

Everything in the world cannot be interfered with.

That is to say, just go and see?
Just like Tai Bu, don't participate in anything in the mortal world?
"How long is the practice period?"

"Dozens of years, hundreds of years, it also depends on your understanding."

Just like the first way.

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said, "That's not right either."

Master lowered his face and said, "Why is it wrong?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "I still have a lot of unfinished business among the mortal world. I want to finish these things."

"Are these things more important than being promoted to the stars?"

"If you don't intervene in everything, but you can't even fulfill your duty in the Taoist sect, then what kind of judge is it?"

The master frowned tightly and remained silent for a while.

Xu Zhiqiong knew that Master was not happy, but judging from Master's expression, there must be another path of cultivation.

After pondering for a while, the master really spoke.

"There is another way, you can go to the mortal world, you can intervene in the mortal world."

Xu Zhiqiong said happily when he heard the words: "What are the restrictions?"

It is estimated that it cannot kill people.

Xu Zhiqiong has a way to deal with such restrictions.

Master shook his head and said, "There is no limit."

"really?"

The master sighed: "Look at the master of Taoism, who often wanders in the mortal world, but what restrictions does he have?"

Xu Zhiqiong said happily: "Then this disciple has chosen this path!"

The master sighed: "Zhiqiong, don't regret it, you have chosen this path, but there is no ready-made star palace waiting for you to rebuild, you have to find a suitable place in the mortal world, and rebuild a star palace! "

Rebuild a star palace?
What is the principle of the constellation?
Is this too difficult?

"The so-called suitable place refers to..."

The master shook his head and said, "Whether it is suitable or not, you have to find out by yourself."

Not even a standard?
Xu Zhiqiong asked in astonishment, "Where is this suitable place?"

"It's up to you to find it yourself. As a teacher, I only have a general direction, and it should be in Fanxiao Kingdom."

In Fan Xiao Kingdom?

"How big is the territory of Fanxiao Kingdom?"

"Equivalent to Xuan Guo."

Xu Zhiqiong widened his eyes and said, "A place as big as Xuanguo, but let the disciples explore by themselves?"

This is harder than finding a needle in a haystack!

Looking for a needle in a haystack, I at least know what a needle looks like, and I still have the possibility to find it.

Now that I don't know what the right place looks like, where do I get it?

"Master, this is a bit..."

The master looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "Why don't you choose one of the multi-star palaces in my Xingxiu Gallery? If you choose one, how can there be such chaos?"

Xu Zhiqiong said in silence for a long time: "Forget it, this is still the way. I will rebuild the star palace myself."

Master closed his eyes, sighed for a long time and said, "I am a stubborn person, I never thought you would be more stubborn than me!

There is one more thing, I want to explain to you first, after you build the star palace, whether it can fit with you, whether you can fly into the starry sky, depends on your good fortune, it has nothing to do with your practice. "

Uh?
"Isn't the grinding with the Xinggong counted as cultivation?"

"It doesn't count," the master said with a serious expression, "If you practice in the mortal world, you have to accumulate meritorious deeds by yourself in exchange for cultivation."

"The meritorious service is easy to say!" Xu Zhiqiong is very confident in this process.

The master shook his head and said: "The meritorious service of the second rank is not as simple as taking offences. You have to practice according to the way of life and death."

Xu Zhiqiong straightened his chest and said, "This disciple has always followed the law of life and death."

The master shook his head and said, "If you talk about killing, you are unambiguous. If you talk about life, you have no such ability. When have you ever brought the dead back to life?"

Xu Zhiqiong was startled for a moment, and then said pleasantly: "Is there such a skill at the second rank?"

"Yes!" Master nodded, "But the method requires you to realize it yourself."

self-awareness?

How to realize the means of bringing the dead back to life?
"Master, this is your mistake. I have been promoted to the second rank, why don't you teach me the second rank skills, but still let me realize it?"

The master sighed: "The second-grade skill of Taoism is called reciprocation of life and death. Everyone has different methods. My brother and I have different methods. It depends on the path of cultivation and talent. It is true that a teacher cannot pass it on to you."

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a while and said: "If I choose a star palace here, practice in the star palace day and night, and ignore ordinary things, can I learn the art of bringing the dead back to life?"

Xu Zhiqiong's idea is to return to the mortal world and rebuild the star palace after he has learned the second-grade skill.

The master pondered for a long time and said, "You still need to realize it by yourself."

Wouldn't it be more difficult to squat in this star palace without contact with outsiders and to realize self-realization?

The master knew what Xu Zhiqiong was thinking: "If you are willing to abandon the mortal world, even if you can't learn second-grade skills, you can still be promoted to Xingxiu, but you don't have to suffer between life and death.

Zhiqiong, listen to me, the verdict of life and death is not as easy as you think. "

It's really not easy.

I don't even have the means to bring the dead back to life, but what about a life-and-death verdict?

Forget it, I only care about killing, not about what happens.

"Master, how many merits do you have to accumulate for the second rank before you can be promoted?"

"There is no fixed number," the master was quite helpless, "the number of judgments does not count. The reason for the judgment depends on the understanding."

It is understanding again, the understanding that is unclear.

"Zhiqiong, this road is the most difficult, you have to be careful!" Master reminded.

Xu Zhiqiong picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and bowed to the master: "Master, this disciple has made up his mind, this mundane world, no matter what, I can't let go of it."

Master was puzzled: "Why are you so stubborn?"

"Disciple can't let go of that smoke and fire." When he said these words, Xu Zhiqiong looked calm and firm.

The master stared at Xu Zhiqiong for a long time, then sighed helplessly: "I would like to remind you again, the verdict of life and death must be fair and equal. If you kill a person who deserves to be killed, you must also give birth to a person who deserves to live.

If life and death are not equal, or if the ruling is wrong, you will be severely punished,

In the mortal world, you violated many Taoist rules, and being a teacher can help you cover up the past. Now that you are above the mortal world, no matter how much you violate the rules, the master can't help you.

Zhiqiong, if you can't survive in the mortal world, come to Xingxiu Gallery to find a teacher, and I will save the star palace for you as a teacher. "
