one person's life

Chapter 272 The Awakening "I" (Large Chapter)

Tang Muzhi looked at himself, but he didn't have any means to defeat himself.

He would never have thought that the first time he met a desperate opponent, that opponent would actually be himself.

When retreating, you can use Yin and Yang Qi to resist and annex the pill bite, and when entering, you can use Da Luo Cave to transform the space to release the pill bite - not just Tang Muzhi, but for anyone in the world, this cannot be called an opponent, such as a faction like Zhuge Gong The leader is a master of powerful spells like Samadhi True Fire. This phantom can also kill with one hit.

The difference between Tang Muzhi and Zhuge Gong is that this "Tang Muzhi" was not eager to use assassin methods to kill him instantly, but showed off his attainments in alchemy, Daluo Cave and Yin Yang Qi... Simply inhuman!
Tang Muzhi's eyes have become calmer than ever before. He is an energetic person, and he also maintains a certain curiosity about things like spiritual illusions. But he is also a person who can complete transformation in an instant. He is very interested in career, The characters are like this.

Perhaps a second ago, he could have dealt with it with a relaxed, playful and exploratory attitude, whether it was the Red-armed Horse Monkey or the Old Heavenly Master, but it was different now.

The "Tang Muzhi" in front of him has undoubtedly completed all Tang Muzhi's explorations in alchemy based on Yin and Yang Qi. It is a great cause related to the future of Tang Sect, and now he is going to get the answer from here.

This is not an obsession with Tang Clan.It is Tang Muzhi's own wish that Yi Tangmen will undergo a perfect transformation and continue the work of its predecessors and be famous for generations to come. Once this wish is established, it will no longer be interfered by any external objective conditions and maintain its absolute self. All transformations are Due to the change in Tang Muzhi's self-thought, he is a free man who can do whatever he wants, and this freedom will not lose its absolute subjectivity due to the disappearance of matter.

The nature of Tang Muzhi's external performance, such as discipline, depth, gentleness in treating others, and a reasonable sense of distance, are also the characteristics that Tang Muzhi himself wants to retain, and they are not just a show-off.

What determines all of this is Tang Muzhi's deep subjective consciousness, which can also be called the Yuan Shen. The clear understanding of its growth and existence comes from the extremely high state of Jing. The Yuan Shen was born in advance and has been formed during the fetal period. At that time, the external environment is basically in a stable state, and the distracting thoughts of internal disputes also dissipate after knowing that it is impossible to make any changes.

All things have not yet begun to regenerate. That is the beginning of the birth of the soul. Bodhisattvas (great-hearted people who seek the Tao [previous translation of Kumarajiva]) and real people (the nature of Tao is the deity, and the deity is the real person) are tempered through acquired practice. When they reached a state where they truly awakened, they gained insight into the origin of the universe and life.

These Buddhist Bodhisattvas, Daoist real people, and even Tang Muzhi who accidentally crossed over, the nature of the souls they retain has undergone a screening by a worldly self. The number of things is different.Some eminent Tibetan monks are known as living Buddhas. Every time they go through reincarnation, they can still retain part of the memory of the previous life.

After all, Tang Muzhi was in a special situation. In his previous life, he had not experienced anything that the real Bodhisattva had experienced, but he had reached a state similar to those of these enlightened people. In this life, he had no further goals on the self-level, so he began to focus on others. The concessions and toughness that other things sometimes make are incomprehensible to ordinary people - in one's own consciousness, it is something at the same level as self-awareness, and it can also be regarded as the highest pursuit.

As for whether he chooses to become a rootless being, to guide and assist others, or to watch the fire from afar, or to help others fulfill their unawakened wishes, it all depends on his own thoughts. Sometimes, a single thought can change the relationship between cause and effect. Zhang's fragile net was plucked wantonly.

Because in fact, according to Tang Muzhi's idea, sometimes ordinary people do not necessarily have to be in the same state as Wu Man, and most people don't need to see through the days when all five aggregates are empty, full of sorrow, worry, and regret, and they can also usher in those days. A happy ending.

……

Naturally, Tang Muzhi would not think so much now. The phantom that crushed him in all aspects of magical power did not kill Tang Mu with one blow. Instead, he continued to demonstrate that he had completely perfected many methods and the unique skills of Tang Sect's housekeeper. Needless to say, in terms of poison, instant strike, and five treasures for body protection, probably no one in the entire history of the Tang sect, other than the master, could compare with this "Tang Muzhi".

Tang Muzhi also saw some problems, such as the phantom body barrier and other methods. No matter how high the realm is, it cannot escape his eyes. This also shows that martial arts has an end, especially the phantom body barrier and the arm-threading Vajra. , even if Tang Muzhi wanted to perfect it, he could not break through a threshold.

No matter how strong the illusory body barrier is, it cannot escape the eyes of those with strong powers of observation. No matter how powerful the Vajra is, it is only the release and extension of the body's power. The existence of the phantom of "Luohuo Pass" seemed to confirm this to him. As that "Tang Muzhi" showed off all his methods, Tang Muzhi counted them in detail, and only his self-created marrow sea yellow remained. The beam is gone.

boo——

The sound of foam breaking came to his ears. Tang Muzhi looked around. The mansion was still as quiet as ever.But with this sound, he was keenly aware that something had changed.

The place that was previously destroyed by the instant strike and the phantom barrier was restored to its original state, and the illusory figure of "Old Heavenly Master" was gradually becoming fainter. Tang Muzhi himself still maintained the action of releasing the pill bite. He found that he had not even The Qi movement was completely completed and the elixir was not launched.

The phantom stared at him quietly, everything seemed like a dream.

"Designate a dream to confuse reality with fiction?" Tang Muzhi remained calm. The moment the effect of the Marrow Sea Yellow Liang ended, he had already thought of this possible situation. But was he dreaming just now?Even he needs time to accept this fact, but overall it is good after all. Xuhai Huangliang's upper limit is as high as he expected.

The game was over, and the phantom began to fulfill its obligations. The figure flashed past like a thin light. Tang Muzhi could only use his vision to catch it, but it had already arrived in front of him.

After the phantom flashed past, it became motionless. Tang Muzhi judged that there were already pill bites all around him. He raised the yin and yang Qi barrier and thought to himself: "It seems that everyone will fall on the pill bites this time."

There is Zhuge Gong in front of him, and there is "Old Heavenly Master" in the back. Next, he, the rightful master, will also have to experience the power of the alchemy bite.

In Tang Muzhi's field of vision, densely packed tiny holes appeared on the gray barrier of yin and yang that could not be seen by outsiders. It was because of the feedback of yin and yang that Tang Mu could feel it later.

Even though it had been expected, the process of the phantom releasing the alchemy bite was still hidden from Tang Muzhi, which means that Tang Muzhi's vision and reaction are still unable to escape this level of alchemy bite, and the alchemy bite is still unparalleled in the world. The ultimate means of killing.

The Yin-Yang Qi barrier is emitting a repulsive force to block the advancement of Danqi. When faced with Danqi, the effect of Yin and Yangqi is not much stronger than the protection methods such as golden light spell and escape light. The yin and yang that Danqi touches in its continuous annexation behavior Qi, Tang Muzhi soon felt a chill in his heart, and the barrier was riddled with holes.

The familiar twisted atmosphere now appeared in his own body.

"I never thought that I would be able to experience the taste of pill eating in this life..." Tang Muzhi smiled. Although Baiyunguan was confused and couldn't find the three monkeys during this trip, he was not disappointed.

Luhuo Pass is a place that helps the disciples of the Quanzhen Sect to preserve the false and the true, and to refine the golden elixir as soon as possible. It is a worthwhile trip to experience it.Under the charred skin, vertical and horizontal white lines were clearly exposed at this moment. They were Tang Mu's exposed meridians. His true energy could no longer move, but Tang Muzhi felt a force that prevented the pill from destroying the meridians—— That was Yin and Yang Qi, and it was still operating spontaneously to protect Tang Muzhi's meridians throughout his body. The effect of the elixir was prolonged, and Tang Muzhi would not die easily.

"..." Tang Muzhi tried his best to sit down cross-legged, which also meant that he would suffer from the torture of alchemy for a longer period of time.

As if inheriting the elixir failed, this was a baptism of death that many old Tang sects had to go through, and it was also the price of not being able to truly see through the life-and-death barrier.

Tang Lesheng, the inner sect disciple who tried to inherit Danqie one step before him, Tang Muzhi still vividly remembers his ferocious and painful appearance before his death.

In the face of great pain, everyone is bowing their heads and begging for death, giving up their dignity and upbringing, using fierce tones to curse, roar, and anger those around them in order to give themselves a happy life.

Tang Muzhi considered himself to have extraordinary endurance. During a mission, he once peeled off his own skin and destroyed a series of biological characteristics such as his fingernails and fingerprints. The process was very long and painful, but Tang Muzhi was able to grit his teeth and endure it. It's not his limit yet.

And now he felt that in front of Dan Yan, he was almost equal to Tang Lesheng, Ren Tou, Zhang Huaiyi, Tang Miaoxing, and everyone who died under Dan Yan. The huge pain made him beg for mercy and death in an instant. idea.

But it was only for a moment, as if to show respect for Alchemy.Tang Muzhi, whose meridians all over his body protruded and then collapsed, his body was twisting and trembling completely out of his control. He gritted his teeth and said nothing, and a pure white door suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

Oh, that's death.

Liu Xingyang turned around to leave. Zhuge Gong's early exit made him quite different, but the Tang Muzhi who was rumored to be amazing would at least not come out so soon, right?
Although personal strength is not necessarily directly related to the time spent in the illusion of the spirit, leaving the illusion of the spirit means that the body dies in the illusion. There is no exception. In the final analysis, this game has only one outcome.

"Old Tang, are you awake too?"

Zhuge Gong's voice came from behind. Liu Xingyang turned his head in surprise and saw Tang Muzhi sitting on a wooden chair with his eyes open and calm.

"Donor Tang, are you coming out too?"

Tang Muzhi glanced at Zhuge Gong and Liu Xingyang with a scrutinizing gaze. The realistic effect of the yellow beam in the marrow sea blurred the boundary between reality and dreams. Is this real?Some means of verification are needed.

"Brother Zhuge, you are here too. How long has it been?...Daozhang Liu, I want to stay alone for a while."

Seeing him like this, Zhuge Gong replied: "It's been about five minutes since I lit the Xinling Incense. Are you okay?"

Tang Muzhi nodded, and Liu Xingyang stretched out his hand to signal him to follow.

"Oh, of course, this is a normal reaction. Donor Tang, this way."

Zhuge Gong touched his chin. The time ratio between reality and the spiritual illusion was huge. Although he and Tang Muzhi woke up one after another, Tang Muzhi stayed in the illusion for probably a few hours longer than him. You have to know Tang Muzhi's face. The ones that are right are the old Heavenly Master and the "Tang Muzhi" who has mastered the elixir?Did he really last so long in the hands of these two people?
Not long after, Tang Muzhi came back again, but this time not long after he came in, Liu Xingyang also came back, and three other people also came into the guest room. After seeing their appearance clearly, Zhuge Gong hurriedly stood up to greet them:
"Junior Zhuge Gong has met the old Tianshi, Mr. Lu, and Taoist Fang."

The visitors were Zhang Zhiwei, the fifth-generation Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain Celestial Master's Mansion No. 60, Lu Jin, the patriarch of one of the four Lu families, and Fang Dongtian, the leader of Quanzhen Longmen Sect and the master of Baiyun Temple.

Regardless of their strength and status, these three are all centenarians in age. Although Zhuge Gong is now in the same ten as Zhang Zhiwei and Lu Jin, he still did not neglect at all and bowed with fists in his hands.

"Haha, Master Zhuge, I haven't seen him for a long time. Haha!" Lu Jin laughed and stepped over, "You have matured a lot... Oh, don't be so formal. Sit down."

Zhang Zhiwei smiled leisurely at Fang Dongtian and said: "Look at this old Lu, he really doesn't regard himself as an outsider. After staying in the temple for a few days, he will go over and greet the guests on your behalf."

Fang Dongtian's face wrinkled up, and he laughed and said: "That's what he is like! When he was young, he had a young master's demeanor and a gentle manner, but now he has shown his true colors when he is old. Little friend Tang, please sit down too... Xingyang, tea is served."

Among the three people, only the old heavenly master Tang Muzhi was meeting him for the first time. The other two old people, Lu Jin, were familiar with him. Fang Dongtian was no different from the one in Lu Mansion back then. He was thin and small, with a head as big as The ears are round and big, which makes people wonder if they will break their necks. The old man talks energetically.

Lu Jin was playing with Tang Muzhi's temper, and didn't bother to talk to him, so he chatted with Zhuge Cheng on the sidelines, and only after a while did he remember Tang Muzhi's introduction.

"Now, you all know this. He is that brat from the Tang Sect. Tang Muzhi! This is the contemporary Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain. When he was young, he was no worse than your boy now. You haven't seen him yet... This is Fang Dao. Chang, he is the master of Baiyun Temple."

Tang Muzhi cupped his fists and bowed: "Tang Muzhi of the Tang Sect has met the old Heavenly Master and Taoist Fang."

Fang Dongtian waved his hand and said with a smile: "Little friend Tang, we have met before, I still remember it."

The expression on the old Heavenly Master's face seemed to be half-smiling: "Haha...Xiao Tang, I heard that your words were framed by you. Is it true?"
