Master of Hongjun

"The catastrophe of the saints you mentioned, do you mean that the way of heaven returns to chaos?" Nuwa asked suspiciously.After all, the way of heaven returns to chaos, at least after immeasurable kalpas, this period of time is unimaginably far away, at least Nu Wa is not worried now.Nu Wa is a saint now, apart from the catastrophe of heaven returning to chaos, there is no need to worry about other catastrophes.

"No! The way of heaven has returned to chaos. This catastrophe is something that will happen after countless Yuanhui. There is no need to think about it at this time. The catastrophe that really needs to be worried about is the five declines of heaven and man!" Cao Xiaolong said with a slight frown, "No matter how advanced the monk is, Because, even a saint will experience the five declines of heaven and man, and this catastrophe is the greatest catastrophe for a saint! If there is no merit and luck to protect him, even a saint cannot escape the disaster of death!"

Nuwa raised her eyebrows, her heart trembled slightly, and said, "The Five Decays of Heaven and Man?" Nuwa heard about Yu Hongjun's preaching, and Hongjun also touched it a little bit when he preached, so of course she knew about the Five Declines of Heaven and Man.The five declines of heaven and man refer to the five conditions that suddenly appear from within the body when a monk's life span is nearing the end of his life, which will lead to the disorder of his true essence, the loss of his cultivation base, and the life and death of kalpas.

It's just that a saint doesn't get involved in cause and effect, doesn't mess with the world of mortals, and lives as long as the sky, so how could he cause the catastrophe of the five declines of heaven and man?Nuwa couldn't believe it.

Cao Xiaolong nodded solemnly, and said: "It is the five decays of heaven and man! Saints claim to be immortal, not absolute, but relative! For example, in the eyes of animals that live and die, human beings can live for two hundred years." , This is far beyond his life, is it considered immortal? Ordinary unenlightened monks are the animals that live and die, and saints are human beings in the eyes of animals. Do you understand this way?"

Nuwa thought about it for a while, and her words were not unreasonable.

Cao Xiaolong continued: "There are three calamities for saints. One is the self-destructive nature, the second is the five declines of heaven and man, and the third is the use of strength to destroy the soul. The previous two calamities have been described in detail, only the power to destroy the soul is not clear to you. The so-called breaking the soul with strength, as the name suggests, means being destroyed by force.

The reason why a saint is a saint is because he entrusts his soul in the void. In the realm of heaven, the soul of a saint is everywhere and elusive.The saint is immortal only because ordinary monks or saints cannot sharply break through the protection of heaven and find out the soul of the saint hidden in the void.If one day, when a monk proves the way with strength and breaks the shackles of heaven, do you think he can discover the soul of the saint entrusted in the void, so as to kill the so-called immortal saint?Without the protection of the Dao of Heaven, do you think the saint can escape death? "

Nuwa's delicate body shook, her original confidence was completely gone, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.Cao Xiaolong's remarks fundamentally subverted Nuwa's previous cognition. In her heart, the saint has always been the highest existence free from disasters and troubles, and eternally at ease.But after what Cao Xiaolong said, even the saint is just a poor parasite, struggling in the boundless sea of ​​suffering, and it is difficult to escape.

"According to the Taoist friends, saints also have all kinds of disasters, and it is difficult to surpass life and death. Is the so-called immortality just a joke after all?" , there is only fear and confusion, the fear of death in the future, and the confusion of the future.

"It can't be said that way. The saint is already regarded as the highest level of practice set by Hongjun Daozu, and he can be regarded as the real longevity and heaven. The same life as the world, the saint can only live the same life as the world. This is still hiding. In the case of three disasters!"

"Is there no real immortality? Could it be that the immortality that Nuwa pursues is just a flash in the pan?" Get the answer you want in your mouth.At this time, Nuwa has completely fallen into what Cao Xiaolong said, and her mind is full of loss and helplessness.

"Maybe there is, but I don't know if the truth will be so unsatisfactory after I have really achieved that kind of cultivation!" Cao Xiaolong's eyes also seemed a little wandering, and he sighed softly.

A flash of firmness suddenly flashed in Nuwa's eyes, she stared at Cao Xiaolong seriously and said, "How did Fellow Daoist know all these shocking secrets, what is the identity of Fellow Daoist, and why did you tell Nuwa these secrets?"

Cao Xiaolong knew in his heart that if he could answer these questions, Nu Wa would definitely stand by his side unswervingly.It's just that there are some words, can you tell Nuwa so frankly?

Cao Xiaolong gave a wry smile, and said to Nüwa: "Fellow Taoists have asked me no less than three times about the matter of Pindao's footsteps. If you can say that Pindao has already said it, why pretend to be mysterious! Pindao is imprisoned by invisible shackles. I really can't say much about my difficulties. Fellow Daoist knows too much, and it will do all kinds of harm to him, so why bother to force him? When the time comes, Pindao will naturally tell you everything in detail, so as to solve the problem for you. confused!"

"Okay! Since fellow daoist is in such a difficult situation, and Nuwa is not an unreasonable person, let's let this matter go, but fellow daoist must tell the truth about the other two issues, otherwise forgive Nuwa for not being united with fellow daoist. " Nuwa said firmly, obviously not wanting to stop there.

Cao Xiaolong pondered for a while, and said: "The other two questions are not very difficult, and it is not a leak to tell the truth. I don't know if I remember it. When I was not a saint, I asked the poor Taoist why the poor Taoist would Knowing that the thing of the friend's chance is the nine heavens, why can it be counted as the merit of the Taoist friend's sanctification is the result of the creation of man? At that time, Pindao replied that Pindao had once been taught by a master who had attained the Tao. I don't know if you still remember it. ?”

Nuwa nodded solemnly, and said, "Of course I remember, is this also related to his mysterious person?"

Cao Xiaolong said: "Fellow Daoists may have thought that Poverty was deliberately deceiving fellow Daoists, but the truth is that the expert is actually an expert who surpassed... All I know is from him. !" Cao Xiaolong held up Lu Ya's trump card again, pushing all the scapegoats on Lu Ya.

The things omitted in this sentence, with Nuwa's wisdom, she knew after a little thought, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably again, and even trembled a little in the end. "Are you saying that that expert has already surpassed...?" Nuwa said, pointing to the sky with her jade-like fingers.

Cao Xiaolong nodded firmly.

"Sure enough, I think he can predict everything and know such a shocking secret. He is indeed a real top expert who surpasses... I should ask him for advice!" If Cao Xiaolong really said it, this Everything was so clear, there was no need to say what happened next.

Nuwa suddenly looked at Cao Xiaolong seriously and said, "Why do fellow Taoists tell Nuwa so many secrets? Don't you worry that Nuwa will reveal it? In the world besides Nuwa, there are as many as five saints. , Why did Fellow Daoists choose me only?"
