The Great Demon of Martial Arts

Chapter 47 What is Tao?
Xiang Zong said lightly: "Now, I will tell you, what is Tao? The word Tao is worth pursuing for a lifetime. Even if you understand it for a while, you can benefit for life."

"To the extreme of emptiness, keep quiet and earnest. All things work together, and I will restore them through observation. There are many things, each of which returns to its roots. Returning to the root is called tranquility, which means returning to life. Returning to life is the daily life, and knowing the daily life is called bright. If you don't know the daily life, you will do evil .Know the constant capacity, the capacity is the public, the public is the king, the king is the sky, the sky is the way, the way is long, and the body is not perilous."

"Taoism pays attention to the dual cultivation of life and soul, as well as the dual cultivation of spirit and form. Based on the orthodox Taoist mental method, comprehensive practice of mind and body can reach the highest perfection state of Taoism."

"Cultivating the body is easy, but cultivating the mind is difficult. This is one of the reasons why I let you eliminate the hostility in your heart. If not, no matter how talented you are, you will never have the possibility of entering the Tao, and you will go crazy instead. Not to mention practicing Taoism. .”

"This is the practice of 'Tao'."

These words made Ji Chuan confused, and his understanding was specious.

Originally thought that according to the "Entering the Dao Chapter" practice of the Dao Heart Seed Demon, in the Yuxu Temple, it would be easy to establish the Dao Heart and Dao Body.

Now these words make Ji Chuan feel that this idea is unrealistic, and gradually shake the original idea, and at the same time become more confused.

If we continue to practice like this, can we really build up our own Dao Xin Dao body and successfully enter the second chapter of "Seeding Demons"?

Can such a 'Dao Heart' fight against the 'Demon Seed'?

Ji Chuan was born in Yeluzi, and he only knew a little about martial arts, and he learned more by himself.

Right or wrong, no one told him.

During this period of time, he learned a lot of martial arts knowledge through Xiang Zong, which can be regarded as a supplement to his martial arts path.

If you don't have this experience, you don't need to think about it, you will know that there will be problems in the future.

At this moment, Ji Chuan frowned tightly, full of thoughts.

Even Xiang Zong's explanation of the word "Tao" is half-understood, which is specious.

Seeing that Ji Chuan was frowning tightly, Xiang Zongwen explained with a smile: "It's okay, it's normal if you don't understand now, and then you can go to read through the Taoist classics in the Cangjing Pavilion. With your comprehension, it doesn't take a few days to understand. One or two. Of course, it is one thing to understand, but it is another thing to really understand."

What is Tao?There are only a few people who can really understand it. In fact, it only needs to understand a little bit, and you can benefit for a lifetime, and the road of cultivation is open all the way.

This kind of explanation, even for his apprentice, tore a hole in the word "Tao", and avoided many detours when he enlightened in the future.

It can be regarded as good intentions!
He doesn't care whether Ji Chuan can comprehend at this time.

At this time, the way of the 'Tao' is not something he can comprehend.

Tao, pay attention to the way of emptiness and tranquility.Emptiness and tranquility are the foundation of heaven and earth, the origin of all things.Regardless of self-cultivation, family harmony, state governance, and peace of the world, you must not violate the way of emptiness and tranquility.

If it is too urgent, it may backfire.

The more he thought about it, the more Ji Chuan felt that he was getting farther away from the 'Tao', so he frowned and asked, "Master, then how to build up the Tao heart, and how is it different from entering the Tao?"

"Dao Xin?" Xiang Zongruo glanced at Ji Chuan meaningfully, and said lightly, "'The Nature of Destiny' is for the 'Dao Xin'."

Having said that, Ji Chuan frowned even more. How could he understand such mystical Taoist arguments.

In my heart, I was already a little bored.

These things are far from what he thought, how can he not be upset.

Seeing that Ji Chuan's expression was not very good, Xiang Zong smiled gently, "Your senior sister is born with Dao Xin, have you ever asked her what is 'Dao Xin'?"

Thinking of this, Ji Chuan was helpless, and said, "I have already asked, and the senior sister said she didn't know, and she couldn't ask why."

That Senior Sister Su Ying's temper, what can she know?To be honest, I am a little envious of such a person, who doesn't need to practice much at all to be able to compare with the efforts of others for decades.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing Ji Chuan's expression, the usually gentle person couldn't help laughing out loud. To be honest, his female apprentice was indeed a bit out of his mind.

Xiang Zong showed a smile on his face, and said: "Xi Chao, you misunderstood your senior sister this time, she really didn't know. I would be surprised if I knew."

Then, Xiang Zong said with emotion: "The mind of the Tao is an illusory thing. My master told me the same thing back then, the nature of destiny. For so many years, I have not been able to comprehend what the mind of the Tao is."

"So, Master hasn't established Dao Xin?" Ji Chuan asked in surprise.

"Of course not. If I have cultivated Dao Xin, the Yuxu Temple will only be able to reach this level, and I will already be among the six major sects of the righteous way. What a pity!"

Xiang Zong didn't want to comprehend the mind of Dao, and break through the bottleneck of returning to the void with the mind of Dao. For decades, his view of Yuxu has probably already been among the six major sects.

"Then no one in the three major gates can cultivate their mind?" Ji Chuan asked with a frown as he felt more and more bad.

"That's not true. Although Dao Xin is difficult to achieve, it doesn't completely cut off people's thoughts. Tai Yijiao teaches the real person to cultivate and build Dao Xin. Now his strength is extremely terrifying."

Hearing this, Xiang Zong shook his head and said solemnly: "But it is said that it is also because of the cultivation method.

In fact, there are so many talented people from the Three Dao Schools, but they suffer from the lack of introductions, and there is nothing they can do about the illusory Dao Xin.

I have only been practicing Daoism as a teacher for 20 years, how dare I compare myself with those of my predecessors, maybe there is no hope in this life. "

Xiang Zong's words made Ji Chuan heave a sigh of relief and dispelled his doubts.

Since someone can build up the Dao heart by virtue of the exercises, it doesn't make sense that he has the help of the Heavenly Demon, but he can't build the Dao Heart and succeed in planting demons.

"Xi Chao, it's too early for you to have a 'Tao Xin', so don't think too much about it." Xiang Zong comforted him.

He could see Ji Chuan's urgency, although he didn't know why.But I also don't want such a savvy jade in the rough to fall into paranoia.

Ji Chuan said respectfully, "Yes, Master."

"kindness!"

Xiang Zong nodded in satisfaction. During this period of time, he could also see the apprentice's hard work and humility in asking for advice, so he became more and more satisfied with Gu Xichao.

Ji Chuan felt that nothing was wrong, so he got up and exited the hall. His hostility was gone, and he could start to practice.

In the past month, apart from meditating every day, I have not practiced at all.

At this time, apart from Ji Chuan feeling relieved for a while, the bottleneck on the fifth floor of Houtian had already begun to loosen.

I believe that with a little practice, one can be promoted to the fifth floor of Houtian.

However, before that, Ji Chuan still felt that it was necessary to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to take a look at those so-called Taoist classics.

Moreover, the Cangjing Pavilion is not only martial arts cheats, but also Taoist classics.

Although these classics cannot bring about the growth of internal strength like martial arts cheats.

However, if someone can comprehend the Taoist classics, I believe that in the Taoist Kung Fu, the practice is rapid, and the two complement each other, regardless of each other.

This is why Taoist disciples are basically like Confucian scholars. If they change their clothes, they might think they are students preparing to go to Beijing for the exam.
