I want to embrace the moon for nine days

It was dark at Yuandao Ridge.

The little white bear carried a hoe and quietly walked down the mountain. Near the reed marsh, he grunted and waved the hoe and began to hoe the ground.

When Su Hanshan left, he left a lot of homework for the monsters in Little Penglai, and naturally there were also many flowers, herbs and dried fruits used to make medicine and wine.

Although Little White Bear was studying in the academy and not learning how to make wine, it was not difficult for him to establish good relations with the gang of monsters led by the Big Mouth Monkey and get these flowers, herbs and herbs. He used his talent in formation to gather the medicinal properties and wanted to make a jar of delicious wine.

He didn't want to be seen by his friends or share it with others, so he acted sneakily.

Soon, he dug three feet of soil and found a jar of wine. He excitedly threw away his hoe and rushed over.

thump!
He missed.

The wine jar floated in the air and was picked up by a hand.

Su Hanshan stood by the pit, holding the small jar of wine, sniffed it, and said with a smile: "Batian, is this the hangover tea you brewed for me, your uncle?"

How can there be a hangover tea with the word “brew” in it?
Little White Bear was filled with grief and indignation: "You, you, you, why did you come back so soon? Didn't you say that the birthday party would take a long time?"

"Well...we helped them streamline the process."

Su Hanshan blew a breath, and the sealing mud disappeared. The red cloth tied to the seal of the wine jar also untied automatically, and light smoke rose, revealing the sour red and clear wine inside.

This little white bear is the most greedy. He doesn't really care about the efficacy of many elixirs, but he pays special attention to the taste.

Su Hanshan took a sip. Everything else about this wine was just so-so, but it brought out the best flavors that could be created by combining a limited number of medicinal herbs. In fact, it was more like fruit wine, with a sweet and sour taste and the astringency of some fruit and grass.

Not enough vitality, looks bland.

But bland is just right.

Su Hanshan took a breath, and the heat and excitement brought by the battle gradually became refreshing as he faced the cool breeze from the sky on the way back and took a sip of fruit wine.

The little white bear stared at the wine jar eagerly and didn't notice Ma Jiugong and Liuqing Daozun walking out from behind Su Hanshan. Behind Ma Jiugong, Bao Zheng walked out again.

"Batian!"

Bao Zheng said leisurely, "At this hour, isn't it time for me to let you go to sleep?"

The little white bear noticed him, shuddered all over, turned around and wanted to run away.

Su Hanshan laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you a jar of wine and return it to you."

He shook his sleeves and a green bamboo tube flew out. It was the wine brewed by the pure fox clan to raise flying bears.

The little white bear sniffed a little aroma and found it to be extremely appetizing. He was surprised and happy, and hurriedly ran away with the bamboo tube on his shoulder.

"It's strange that there's a flying bear here."

Zhang Yannian flew over and laughed, "My wife is also very concerned about the flying bear in her tribe. She forgot to take it away today. I'll have to think about it next time."

His face became solemn, and he bowed, "Brother Su, Brother Lao Dao, Jiu Gong, and Brother Bao, thank you very much!"

Dao Zun shook his head: "It didn't help much."

Ma Jiugong said: "Dao Zun saved my life. If this is not helpful, then I have accomplished nothing. But having said that, I really owe a lot to you, Daoyou Su, tonight."

"I never thought that Fellow Daoist Su could actually use the Moon-Refined Immortal Sword of Tiandu Sword Immortal..."

Ma Jiugong still seems to be recalling the aura of that sword strike. "The Huayang Sword Immortal is also a sage admired by hundreds of millions of Confucian students throughout the ages. I don't know how many articles have been written about him, praising him and his sword. But in the past thousand years, among the younger generation of Confucian students, I am afraid that only I have had the good fortune to see the true appearance of the Sword Immortal's magical powers!"

Su Hanshan shook his head: "I just borrowed it for use, it doesn't count as something I made myself."

As he spoke, he raised his left hand, and his own Pure Yang Secret Realm appeared above his palm.

The golden light is dazzling, round and without edges, and there is a faint Tai Chi pattern running inside the secret realm.

However, if you look closely, you can find that there are some mottled marks like cracks on this secret realm.

Su Hanshan exclaimed: "This sword is really powerful. I just borrowed it from the heaven and earth to verify it. The burden is also very great. If the fight continues, I will not be able to use the sword again."

Ma Jiugong was shocked and a little scared: "So you were injured so badly. Fortunately, they were all shocked by the power of your sword, and no one dared to attack you..."

Su Hanshan nodded and said, "Yes, if those monsters are brave enough and dare to rush up to attack me without fear of death, they will know that I can only continue to use the Taiyin Star Ape magical power, and use the Heaven-Slaying Sword to slow down and take a break at intervals."

Ma Jiugong choked.

It turns out that not being able to use the sword again literally means that it is not possible to use the "Moon Refined Flying Sword" again within a short period of time.

The old man, Liu Qing Dao Zun, was usually taciturn and a little bit indecisive except when he was drawing his sword. At this moment, he couldn't help but look at Su Hanshan with a strange look.

“Hahahaha, I understand. I’ve experienced the exhilaration of killing with one move. In comparison, even if other moves can blow up the opponent, they still have to be divided and suppressed for future refinement. It’s indeed a bit regrettable that they’re dragged on.”

At this time, Zhang Yannian deeply felt the same way.

"I have been trained in Lingzhou, grown up in the army, and experienced countless bloody battles. When my cultivation level was low, although I encountered many dangers, it was easy for me to die, and so were my enemies. There was a thin line between two worlds, and the whole world seemed very simple."

"Later, as our cultivation became higher, especially when we reached the Yuanshen and Tianren realms, it became less easy for everyone to die. When we were fighting on the battlefield, it became very uncomfortable."

Su Hanshan's heart moved, and he felt that the general had also expressed his thoughts.

Ma Jiugong looked at the expressions of the two of them and felt his eyelids twitching.

How ruthless and decisive General Shenwei was when he fought against foreign enemies in the northern border? This can be seen from the fact that the royal tribes of Langyu in the northern border were willing to follow him, a general of the Great Chu, wholeheartedly.

Only those noble families in the Great Chu who served in the same dynasty as officials and were protected by various situations did not have such a deep understanding of this.

Oh, and there are the fox clan, who always look at people with an old eye and think they have the key to everyone's life. They really underestimate this great general.

As for Su Hanshan, in just the short time since he arrived in Lingzhou, he had already killed countless powerful men from the Void Secret Realm.

Ma Jiugong even discovered that the two honest men, Liuqing Daozun and Bao Zheng, actually had a look of approval on their faces. He thought to himself that something was not right and hurriedly tried to persuade them.

"Everyone, it is necessary to kill decisively, but it is not good to be too murderous, especially during a catastrophe. Those with too much murderous aura are more likely to be corroded by the boundless demonic energy and turn into bloodthirsty demons."

Ma Jiugong sighed, "Demons and demonic energy, although they sound ferocious and mindless, and disgusting, the pollution of demonic energy often does not start from the disgusting aspects, but from the favorite aspects of people's hearts. We must be on guard."

Su Hanshan took a big gulp of fruit wine, his brows clear as he faced the moonlight.

"I never kill my enemies because I like them, but because I hate them."

Su Hanshan thought about it and smiled strangely, "If I really want to start from the place I love in my heart, I will probably first become a sleepy demon who stays at home and is too lazy to move, admiring Zhuang Zhou's carefree travels, meeting people in dreams every day, and not moving his real body for a hundred years."

"The second is that he might persuade people to be kind and equal everywhere, like a bald donkey with hair on his head, which is too compassionate."

"Third, he might become an arrogant old man who forces his skills everywhere. But what I teach may not be all fighting methods."

"As for the bloodthirsty demon, I don't know how many places this option will be in the list."

Ma Jiugong was slightly startled.

Because Su Hanshan cultivated too fast, old men like Ma Jiugong, who once served as the chief priest of the academy, would always subconsciously feel that Su Hanshan's character might not be so stable and sophisticated.

The word "heart" is like the entire universe, which is endless. In the practice of martial arts, combat power has an obvious relationship with spirit and will.

But when it comes to state of mind, it is hard to say whether it can be linked to combat power.

It is said that the Taiyin Star Ape who was crowned king of Lingzhou back then, even after being crowned king, his state of mind was not necessarily comparable to that of the weak old turtle who had adopted him.

However, every word Su Hanshan uttered just now with a soft laugh seemed to cause a shock in the hearts of those around him, as if they had realized something.

That is the feeling of Tao heart.

When someone speaks with a clear heart of Tao, even the most ordinary sentences can cause others to have sudden enlightenment. However, because it is not the other person's own heart of Tao, most people can only feel enlightened, but it seems as if they have not.

The heart of Tao is neither real nor false, it is extremely mysterious. Even though Ma Jiugong has been practicing until today, he only feels that he has the heart of Tao. Sometimes he can feel the existence of those mysterious things, but it is impossible for him to take the initiative to touch them.

Su Hanshan actually showed off his Dao Heart ability without any hesitation. His attainments in Dao Heart far surpassed Ma Jiugong.

Ma Jiugong restrained his expression and bowed: "I am sorry for the intrusion."

Zhang Yannian was watching from the sidelines, and suddenly said, "Hanshan, you have such a high level of attainment in Taoism, so perhaps you can use the Tongtian Youdao Incense directly."

Su Hanshan asked curiously, “Isn’t this incense specially used to awaken the Pure Fox Ancestor?”

"This spice is said to be a secret method of ancient witchcraft. When it was first created, it was just as its name suggests, to induce the Tao, to induce the Tao to reveal its true appearance in front of the practitioners, making it easier for people to realize the Tao."

Zhang Yannian explained, "This batch stored by the Fox Clan was personally refined by the old ancestor when he was still conscious. Therefore, combined with the Pure Fox Secret Technique, a large amount of it can be set off during a period when the heavenly limit is not so strict to wake up the old ancestor."

While speaking, Ma Jiugong took out the Tongtian Youdao Incense. Zhang Yannian took it in his hand, examined it, and nodded.

"Sure enough, there is a surplus. According to my plan, there is no need to leave so much for the old fox."

He separated some of the spices from the mess of weeds and handed them to Su Hanshan.

"It's not appropriate for the rest of us to use this right now, but you can afford it. This is a small reward for your efforts this time, so don't refuse it."

Everyone here has different levels of Taoism. Zhang Yannian's Taoism is probably stronger than Ma Jiugong, and Bao Zheng's Taoism should also be very high.

However, Tao heart is not like spiritual power, it is something that is difficult to measure.

Mental power is just an ordinary power that exists between heaven and earth. It is not that different from common things like fire and lightning.

Therefore, people who possess self-aura can switch between spiritual power and things like thunder, fire, and physical objects at will.

The heart of Tao is the existence that is most closely connected with one's own spiritual light.

The total amount of self-aura may be determined by the foundation and other aspects, but the strength of self-aura can only be determined by the heart of Tao.

It is impossible for Zhang Yannian to collide his own spiritual light with the spiritual light of others for no reason. Even if he has a strong heart for Taoism, he does not know to what extent. From the beginning to the end, he had no intention of using the "Taoist Incense" himself.

This is foreshadowing.

In the history of the fox clan, there had been two powerful void masters and one powerful celestial being, who tried to break through to a higher realm by using the "Yudao Incense", but they both died as a result, causing the fox clan to suffer huge losses.

The talents of those three were so great that the Weird Fox King felt inferior to them in the past, otherwise they would not have such status and such confidence to be able to use such treasures.

"You can actively circulate your Dao Heart. Even if you face the true appearance of the Dao, you should be able to persist for a long time and not be easily transformed into Dao and die. You can use a small amount of Dao Inducing Incense first. It's a waste if it's wasted. Get used to it, and then consider increasing the amount."

Zhang Yannian repeatedly reminded him for a while and explained the specific steps for using this spice.

"You can also consider not using it now, and wait until you reach the peak of the Small Void Secret Realm in the future and want to break through before using it."

Su Hanshan pinched the spices, stared at them for a moment, and said cheerfully, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

Before he finished speaking, he drank all the fruit wine in the jar, threw it away, then broke off a piece of vanilla about an inch long, twisted it with his fingers, and lit it.

No one expected him to be so agile and they subconsciously held their breath.

However, in this twist and turn, he had actually used all the techniques just mentioned by the general, and it seemed that there were some modifications.

There was a spark on the top of the vanilla, which was slightly bright and dim, and there was no smell of fragrance at all.

They have all been absorbed by Su Hanshan.

Thicker smoke rose up from Su Hanshan's bright eyes, and an indescribably magnificent view was reflected in the smoke.

The tiny and invisible waves are extremely small, but they still echo in the universe every moment.

Infinite quantum particles are flashing all the time, showing their unpredictable charm.

The mysterious force field has been expanding outward from the distant past, when the world was first created.

All things and spirits, the movement of the stars and the void, the beginning and end of time and space, the cycle over and over again, are just the spiral rise of the clear and turbid energies.

Things are originally projections of the mind. There is neither past nor future, neither inside nor outside. Everything depends only on the mind and on oneself.

This feeling is completely different from the feeling when I broke through to the seventh level.

When one breaks through from the sixth level to the seventh level and utilizes the origin of the void to reflect the laws of all things, all objective laws exist objectively, with clear logic and irrefutable truth.

By using the "Lured Dao Incense" to observe the true appearance of the Dao, it seems that even the origin of the void is only a part of the true appearance of the Dao.

The true appearance of this avenue is different every time you look at it.

Every time you look at it, it is a complete Tao, and it seems that it should not have any other appearance. But at the next glance, it has a completely new appearance.

Su Hanshan even felt for a moment that the "Tao" he saw was not the world of the Abyss Realm, but the complete true appearance of all worlds, with no limit and no boundaries.

"The great way is infinite, and all laws are impermanent..."

The inch-long incense stick on Su Hanshan's fingertips burned out completely. He seemed not to be addicted to the temptation of the avenue at all. His expression was calm from beginning to end, with a little smile in his calmness.

"The Great Way is infinite, but the truly infinite cannot be sought; all dharmas are impermanent, but the truly impermanent cannot be used."

"The person who refined this spice is indeed very powerful. He has already been able to see the truth and is much stronger than I am now..."

Su Hanshan sighed, "But I'm afraid he will never be able to attain enlightenment."

Zhang Yannian seemed to be thinking: "How do you say that?"

"Because he has succumbed to the charm of the Great Dao, and the real Great Dao has become something that can only be admired from afar. His path has been cut off."

Su Hanshan said, "Although the Tao is infinite and impermanent, we must establish something that has an infinite and a permanent state. It may be a concept, or a set of practical exercises."

"It may be a substantial existence in the universe, or it may just be one's own cognition, using it to pave a practical path to approach the true meaning of Tao."

The immortal magical powers refined by the Pure Fox Ancestor, the laws of heaven and earth that he has come into contact with, and the path he has walked are definitely farther and longer than where Su Hanshan is standing now. There are still many places where Su Hanshan can learn and comprehend.

However, he could no longer move forward.

Although the place where Su Hanshan was standing now was not as far as him, the road under his feet had already extended longer than his.

"Hanshan!!"

The voice of the Seventh Generation Master rang in Su Hanshan's ears across a million miles.

Above the nine layers of strong winds, there were faint and strange flashes of light among the stars.

The seventh generation ancestor had already withstood the heavenly limit last time, and now even if he just transmitted the sound, it also caused some reaction.

"This Shenwei General has had dealings with Fan Sheng. Not long ago, Fan Sheng burned incense and sent a message to me."

"They are about to open the Mausoleum of the Qin Emperor. The key to the mausoleum is currently in the hands of Shenwei Mansion, Yuyuan, and Buzhou Palace. They have reached a tacit understanding that when they perform rituals simultaneously, even if the three parties are not in the same place, they can all enter the mausoleum."

"When the mausoleum is cracked to a certain extent, the True Lords of both sides may pay some attention to it, so Fan Sheng asked me to pay some attention to it as well."

"I originally thought that it would be quite beneficial for you to blend in and act in this area. Now I think you should not go too deep and take too many actions. Just wait and see."

Su Hanshan was slightly surprised and asked in his heart: "Why?"

"Because you...are already a young True Lord."

Although the Seventh Generation Patriarch was speaking with worry, he couldn't help but smile.

"It's not certain that I can become a True Lord, but at least there is a possibility. It's a pretty good possibility, much better than other possibilities that are completely impossible."

"Hahaha, if they find out about you, I can't say for sure whether they will be shameless enough to go against the will of heaven and attack you."
