Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

thump~
thump~
thump~
The sound of the Taoist bell resounds throughout Huaqing Mountain.

As the two happy events of Immortal Lord Huaguang's safe return and his preaching and performance coincided, all the creatures in the entire Linghua world were delighted.

However, some core disciples of the seven major immortal sects did not appear as excited as expected.

In the previous battle against Pituo, True Lord Lingyuan invited many great Taoist masters. The number of True Lords in the fusion realm and the refining void realm was so dazzling that the seven major immortal sects were almost dazzled.

And such a large number of reinforcements are naturally not helping for nothing. The core figures of the seven major immortal sects, such as the Dharma elders, Taoist saints and the direct disciples of each lineage, have already known that the Linghua Realm is about to be merged into other realms.

By then there will be no such thing as Linghua Realm, there will only be one Linghua Continent.

No one knows what the future will be like, so their reaction is indifferent.

Su Yutong looked at the cultivators who were going up the mountain. Many of them were excited, while some elders and disciples of the seven major immortal sects had subtle expressions and were puzzled: "Why can't they be happy when the Immortal Lord is giving a sermon?"

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "Who made them nobles of the seven great immortal sects?"

"Sometimes, having power and status is not a good thing. If you know too much, your mind will be disturbed."

Su Yutong nodded thoughtfully. She had already guessed what these people were thinking.

Jiang Sheng stood up from the cliff and brushed off the morning dew on his clothes: "It's almost time, let's go listen to the sermon."

"There won't be many opportunities like this in the future."

Su Yutong followed Jiang Sheng, stepped on the stone steps and disappeared into the mist of the bamboo forest.

The top of Huaqing Mountain.

The sky and the sea float in the corridor, and the clouds and mist turn into fossil steps.

The red eaves lean against the green pillars, and golden lotus grows on the jade railings.

There were auspicious lights and auspicious mists everywhere, the sky was bright, flocks of fairy birds were dancing and flying among the sea of ​​clouds and the sunset glow, many spiritual beasts were running among the mountains and forests, and the clear and pleasant sound of chimes came melodiously, making the mist in Huaqing Mountain seem to be tinged with a fairy charm.

At this time, between the clouds, a palace was shining brightly under the sun. Under the reflection of infinite immortal light, colorful rainbow lights shone in all directions, and golden clouds and silver mists lingered.

It can be called a fairy palace and a mysterious place.

When Jiang Sheng arrived, Zhenjun Zhengyang and others had already joined the group.

Deep in the hall, Immortal Lord Huaguang sat in the first seat, True Lord Zhengyang sat in the first seat on the right, True Lord Lingxu and the others sat down in order, leaving the first seat on the left.

Be it Xuanmen or Buddhism, no matter whether it is immortals, gods or Buddhas, the left is respected. The first position on the left is obviously reserved for Jiang Sheng.

When Zhenjun Zhengyang saw Jiang Sheng coming, he smiled and said, "Daoyou Lingyuan is here, please come in quickly."

Jiang Sheng greeted all the True Lords, then glanced at True Lord Yin Yue who was sitting in the second seat on his left, and then sat down calmly.

Immortal Lord Huaguang looked at True Lord Zhengyang and the others. Although he had only returned to Linghua Realm not long ago, he was familiar with the situation in Linghua Realm.

Be it Zhenjun Zhengyang or Zhenjun Yinyue, Huaguang Immortal Lord knows their thoughts, but it is not easy to intervene, and he does not want to intervene.

Not long after Jiang Sheng took his seat, disciples from the seven major immortal sects, talented people from various major forces, and those lucky independent cultivators entered the venue one after another.

Looking around, people from the seven major immortal sects and various aristocratic sects accounted for at least 80%, leaving only 20% for independent cultivators, and even these 20% of independent cultivators were not pure.

Jiang Sheng took a glance and simply closed his eyes, while the seven True Lords had different expressions when they saw this.

Those who can enter this hall must be young talents and pride of the area.

After all, the seven major immortal sects only want geniuses. Who of those who can stand out from so many geniuses and sit in this hall is an ordinary person?

If it were in the past, Immortal Lord Huaguang would have been furious. He was originally going to preach to the cultivators of the entire Linghua Realm, but how many people sitting in this hall at this moment were from the countryside?
Is there a lack of talented people among the independent cultivators?

But now Hua Guang Xianjun didn't want to pay attention to these. He just sighed softly, and then said loudly: "This is the first and last time I will preach after returning to Linghua."

"This is the last thing I can do for the sentient beings in this Linghua world."

The voice of Huaguang Immortal Lord was not loud, but it could be heard clearly both inside the hall and outside Huaqing Mountain, and it even gradually spread to all parts of the five continents.

The small sects and schools in the five continents of Linghua Realm, the low-level independent cultivators, and the ordinary people all heard it clearly.

This time, Hua Guang Xianjun only gave one month to prepare for his sermon. It was not that Hua Guang Xianjun did not want to leave more time, but that he did not have that much time.

Therefore, the quota for entering Huaqing Mountain this time can be said to be controlled by the seven major immortal sects. Those aristocratic sects that have good relations with the seven major immortal sects can ask for one or two.

Those famous geniuses among the independent cultivators had to either become disciples of the seven great immortal sects or sell all their wealth for a chance of getting a spot.

As for other ordinary independent cultivators and those small sects, they have no chance at all.

Hua Guang Xianjun knew this clearly, so he chose other methods.

"Of course, this palace of mine cannot accommodate so many living beings."

"Therefore, I, in accordance with the will of heaven, will preach the truth to all sentient beings in the five continents of Linghua Realm."

After Hua Guang Xianjun said this, the faces of many people in the hall changed again and again, but Hua Guang Xianjun ignored them and started preaching.

"I am not good with swords, nor am I proficient in the art of fighting."

"However, there are pros and cons. I have studied the art of magic and supernatural powers quite deeply."

"Today's lecture will focus on techniques, methods, magical powers, nature, heaven and earth, the universe, and yin and yang." The consciousness of Immortal Lord Huaguang was connected to the will of heaven in the Linghua Realm. The sound of Tao spread throughout the five continents. Countless creatures, whether they were humans or demons, and whether they had cultivated themselves or not, were listening to the mighty heavenly sound in the air.

Many independent cultivators excitedly sat down and prepared to listen to the Tao's voice. The demons and monsters also poked their heads out from their caves and water dwellings. Even the maids and slaves who had no cultivation at all pricked up their ears.

All the living beings in the Linghua Realm listened quietly, and above the sky, the voice of Immortal Lord Huaguang sounded again.

"Skill is the extension of the body, and law is the basis of the mind."

"The theory of magic is the union of mind and body, the form of spirit and god."

"The most powerful magic in the world is the Five Elements and Four Symbols, which can be broken down into gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder. All other magic can be seen as their variations."

"Magic is to control the spirit with divine will, and supernatural power is the performance of the original self."

"Above the magic is the supernatural power. Spiritual energy turns into magic power. The magic is born from spirits. The method of performing the mysterious spiritual light and turning it into the true self is the way of supernatural power, also known as spiritual magic."

"However, everything in the world is nothing more than the nature of heaven and earth, and magic and supernatural powers are also included in it."

"In terms of the Dao of Alchemy, the heaven and earth are a furnace, and all living things become firewood. In the fire there is gold, and gold gives birth to immortality. The path to immortality, the initial path, is the golden elixir."

"Nature has myriad laws, heaven and earth have mysterious light, and myriad laws and mysterious light merge into one energy, which is the highest way, called Taiyi."

Immortal Lord Huaguang did not speak fast. He was very patient in explaining step by step, the method of practicing Qi, the way to build the foundation, the key to the golden elixir, etc. Jiang Sheng did not know how the cultivators in the hall listened, but he himself really benefited a lot.

When three people walk together, there must be one who can be my teacher, let alone the sermon of a Mahayana immortal.

Anyone who can become a Mahayana Immortal King must have gone through countless tribulations and taken every step very solidly.

The Heavenly Dao foundation, top-grade golden elixir, and even the Taiyi Yuanying and Taiyi Yuanshen are all necessary.

The Dao Fruit must be the Taiyi Dongxuan Dao Fruit, so that one can break through the two major barriers of Lianxu and Hedao step by step, break the shackles of the three disasters and five calamities and become one of the few Mahayana immortals in the chaotic universe.

Although Hua Guang Xianjun said that he was not good at swords and fighting skills, anyone who really believed it would be a fool.

What the Mahayana Immortal King said was not good, but it does not mean that he does not know how to do it. Which Mahayana Immortal King is really completely unfamiliar with a certain skill or method?
Only by exploring all the dharmas in the world can one reach the Mahayana stage and achieve perfection in the Tao.

Hua Guang Immortal Lord has his own unique understanding of magic and supernatural powers. Jiang Sheng examined himself with reference to Hua Guang Immortal Lord's understanding and indeed found some shortcomings.

It is a blessing to be able to discover your shortcomings.

Every True Lord in the Refining Void Realm basically relies on his predecessors and then walks his own path, so it is inevitable that there are omissions in their skills.

These omissions are not noticeable among people at the same level, but in the eyes of powerful people who are one or two levels higher, they are fatal.

Sometimes, you don't even need to reach a higher realm, a smaller realm is enough to be fatal.

Jiang Sheng never thought that the skills he compiled were perfect.

Even though he referred to the Taoist Canon of Penglai, even though he went to see the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty, went to the Southern and Northern Continents for exchanges, and even witnessed the magical powers of Buddhism and the methods of Shinto, Jiang Sheng still knew that he still had shortcomings.

Every time he repaired a flaw in his technique, Jiang Sheng's Dao fruit would become more harmonious. When neither Jiang Sheng nor others could find any flaws in Jiang Sheng's technique, Jiang Sheng's Dao fruit would be considered perfect and flawless.

But even the two Heavenly Lords did not dare to say that their Dao Fruits were truly perfect and flawless, so how could Jiang Sheng dare to be complacent?

"My method is called Seven Refinements and Nine Returns. It combines the nature of heaven and earth, refines the light of the Seven Mysteries, and after nine returns to the extreme, the Great Dao will appear."

“The first refining is called condensation, the second refining is called integration, and the third refining is called transformation.”

"One return to another heaven, one return to another ray of light, seven refinings to transcend the calamity, nine returns to ascend to immortality, that is the infinite yin and yang, the mysteries of all dharmas"

Immortal Lord Huaguang talked about his concept of Seven Refinements and Nine Returns, and Jiang Sheng listened and practiced it at the same time.

This method of seven refinings and nine returns is quite instructive for Jiang Sheng, especially the refining and returning. It is not about refining the essence a few times and returning it a few times, but this refining and returning is the way of yin and yang.

When one reaches Jiang Sheng's realm, or the upper three realms, everyone has embarked on his own path. Except for those who blindly follow the path of their predecessors and are ready to inherit their predecessors' mantle, name, and existence, basically, they will not delve too deeply into other people's methods, but will pay more attention to other people's ideas.

The concept of practice and the concept of performance are the key.

The philosophy of Huaguang Immortal Lord is refining and returning.

During the process of refining and returning to the Pure Land, proper relaxation and tension can achieve a natural balance of yin and yang and harmony.

The chaotic world can be reflected in the two words "refining and returning".

This concept of yin and yang, nature, heaven and earth is in line with Jiang Sheng's original concept.

"The Seven Refinements and Nine Returns Sutra Spoken by Hua Guang Immortal Lord", this martial arts method painstakingly compiled by Hua Guang Immortal Lord, when Hua Guang Immortal Lord himself recounted it, made Jiang Sheng feel even more extraordinary, and his favor and recognition of Hua Guang Immortal Lord was also constantly improving.

As Hua Guang Xianjun preached, the mighty heavenly sound continued to echo in the five continents of Linghua Realm, and little by little seeds had been sown by Hua Guang Xianjun.

For this sermon that has been widely spread among all living beings, Hua Guang Immortal Lord can be said to have done immeasurable merit.

The sermon lasted for seven days. During those seven days, there was no wind or rain in the Linghua Realm, the sky was clear and the air was fresh. Only the faint sound of the voice and the fragrant purple air could be heard.

After Immortal Lord Huaguang finished speaking, the beings in the Linghua Realm were still immersed in it, as if the sound was lingering in their ears for a long time.

Hua Guang Xianjun looked at the monks in the hall who were listening in ecstasy. Through the hall, he saw the vast sea of ​​clouds, the sun hanging high in the sky, the Huaqing Mountain with fairy birds flying in the sky and clouds rising, and the vast five continents of Linghua Realm.
Immortal Lord Huaguang sighed softly.

"This sermon ends here." (End of this chapter)
