The cruelest thing in the world is not ignorance, but knowing too much but not being able to get it.
You can't get what you ask for, and you look like you're crazy, and then you have an illusion!
Everyone in the palace thought that Emperor Taishi Fu Dan was crazy, but he was the only one who knew that he was not crazy. Everything he said in babbling words was seen with his own eyes.
Thousand-year-old jujube tree, Blood Vine Demon, Mystic Pearl Grass, purple salvia, yin and yang fruit, Five-Colored Auspicious Cloud Mushroom, Jianmu Tree...
After a long time.
Emperor Taishi The picture in front of his eyes collapsed, his muttering gradually died down, and he sat cross-legged on the futon.
Leng You glanced at everyone in the hall. They all bowed their heads and had expressionless faces. How could he not guess what the people below were thinking? They probably thought he was talking nonsense.
"True Man Xu Why don't you get up?"
"I am so excited that I would like to congratulate Your Majesty!"
True Man Xu knelt on the ground and trembled. spirit medicine was indeed real. It came from the Buddhist and Daoist heritage and was sealed. However, alchemy still required Pill Furnace, spells, and spiritual fire. Now it can only be replaced by a bronze tripod of ordinary fire.
As a result, three furnaces were broken in a row, wasting the already rare quantity of spirit medicine.
Fortunately, I read through ancient Daoist books a few days ago and found the method of using lead and mercury as the inner elixir. The two were combined to create a magical elixir.
The appearance is similar to that in the classics. As for the medicinal effect, True Man Xu dare not eat it anyway.
True Man Xu Judging from his limited experience in alchemy, taking this elixir is not as effective as eating it raw spirit medicine. However, I don't dare to say what I think in my heart. Once His Majesty knows about it, he will have to change the master.
"Pass the decree, True Man Xu has made great achievements in alchemy, Grand True Monarch Huaixuan Jimiao Guangzu will be granted the title, a purple robe, a reward of ten thousand gold, and a statue of White Cloud Temple will be made to offer incense!"
Emperor Taishi said slowly, "True Person continues to refine the elixir. I will ask Imperial Guards to send it to spirit medicine. At least one success will be achieved every month!"
After cultivating Qi and Blood martial arts to such an extent that he could only eat half a cow in one meal to be full. However, since leaving Kunlun Mountain, even if he eats to the top of his throat and fills his belly, he still feels hungry from his soul.
When he was young, he could still be patient, and he could barely drive away the greed in his heart with the joy of leading an army to conquer the world.
Now Emperor Taishi is nearly eighty years old, sitting on the Qing Kingdom's power, intimidating the countries in Yunzhou, and has reached the pinnacle of mortal life. In this world, except for cultivating immortals and immortality, there is nothing else that can be seen!
I took the elixir today and the scent of spiritual energy invaded my bone marrow!
"I will spend my entire life looking for Kunlun Mountain!"
Emperor Taishi pulled out Tai'a Sword from his waist. His whole body was as green as jade and he pointed diagonally at the sky.
"If I don't live forever, no matter how powerful I am, I will be nothing more than a handful of loess in a hundred years!"
When these words were spoken, the ministers and servants in the palace were so frightened that they immediately knelt down, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times.
"Long live your Majesty, long live, long live your Majesty!"
After the change.
In order to prevent the secular royal power from counterattack, the Buddhist monks seized the dominant position of Buddhism.
Therefore, before the spiritual energy completely dissipates, please invite all the royal families of Yi Province to go to the Paradise of Paradise and change their name to Buddha Province.
Buddha Province is divided into twelve Buddha lands, governed by twelve upper courts and temples. The division of state capitals under its jurisdiction is similar to that of the original imperial court, governed by the middle court and the lower court.
Since monks had to recite sutras and practice Buddhism and did not have much time to manage the place, they appointed lay disciples as officials and classified them into the second class. The first-class people are naturally monks, the third-class people are farmers, industry and merchants, and the fourth-class people are criminals, slaves, etc.
Divide people into four classes, with fixed occupations and levels to facilitate management, like a pyramid from top to bottom.
With the help of Buddhist classics such as karma and retribution, reincarnation and reincarnation, the people who are tamed and governed endure hardships, and then they can be reincarnated as monks in the next life, imprisoned to death from the physical body to Spirit Soul.
Over the past hundreds of years, instead of large-scale rebellions, Buddhist rule has become more solid.
As for all scriptures other than Buddhist scriptures, such as the Four Books and Five Classics, history books and biographies, if the reader commits a serious crime of blasphemy against the Buddha, his whole family will be classified as a fourth class person and must endure hardship for three lives before being liberated.
This is just the overall structure. Buddhism has set levels in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Walking in the Buddhist city, you can clearly distinguish the differences between the four classes of people based on the color of their clothes, their means of transportation, the food they eat, and the rules of their houses.
Bodhi Buddha Land.
Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple.
It is said that Buddhism originated here, which can be said to be the sect of ten thousand Buddhas and the actual ruler of Buddha Province.
Great Hero Hall.
The several-foot-tall pure gold Buddha statue has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, looking at the believers below with a smile.
Among them is an old monk with long eyebrows. He has a tall frame and his whole body is as solid as red gold. There are more than ten monks on the left and right, some old or young, with distant eyes, and they all look compassionate.
The only person who spoke in the hall was a monk in ragged clothes and a scarred monk, telling the story of what happened to the Buddhist monks in Yunzhou.
"... After Emperor Taishi destroyed Qianjing Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, he destroyed the mountains and temples and burned all the Buddhist scriptures. He sent soldiers, Brocade Guard and Eunuch Bureau to search for the monks, and killed them if they dared to resist. Even laymen were imprisoned."
"The poor monk and hundreds of warrior monks traveled westward, passing through Ji Province for tens of thousands of miles, and when they arrived at Buddha Province, there was only one disciple left!"
At this point, the monk exposed the scar on his chest, penetrated it with an arrow, and died on the spot after missing it by a few seconds. He continued, "At the Buddha Province border, the poor monk received treatment from the believers and luckily survived, so that he could pass on the Yunzhou incident."
"Amitabha!"
The old monk with long eyebrows said, "The believers in this family have great merits and virtues. Allow their son to be ordained as a monk and enjoy the bliss of Buddhism."
The monk on the left side of the prison stood up and accepted the order, "I will obey the Zen Master's decree!"
The old monk asked the people around him, "What do you think about the incident in Yunzhou?"
A monk said, "Emperor Taishi admired Xuanxiao, the enemy of the Buddha, and tried to destroy the Buddha. He should be punished!"
Another monk said, "Zen Master, this poor monk is willing to lead a hundred thousand monk soldiers to Yunzhou to spread Buddhism and overthrow the tyranny of the Qing Kingdom's false emperor!"
"The poor monk is also willing to go!"
"..."
"Amitabha!"
The old monk with long eyebrows announced the name of Buddha and said, "The false emperor's strength has reached the innate level, which is the best in the world. This person is the immortal Buddha Fanan du."
The monks nodded slightly, and on the surface they looked down upon Emperor Taishi, but in fact, the strong man who could rule Yunzhou was something that ordinary monk soldiers could rule.
"What do you think, Zen Master?"
"Wait!"
The old monk with long eyebrows said, "The false emperor is obsessed with Path of Immortality and is almost crazy. When he betrays his relatives and abandons his relatives, the people will be devastated. We will ask the Buddha to kill him, so that we can intimidate the Yunzhou countries and subdue the people."
A monk asked doubtfully, "Zen Master, Yunzhou is tens of thousands of miles away. Is it worth using Buddha's treasure?"
After Xuanxiao killed Miaoshan, he did not take away the Buddhist Zong Zongzong treasure. He spent spiritual objects to seal it up until now, and has fallen to Dharma Treasure. To activate the Buddha treasure, a large amount of spiritual energy is consumed, which is equivalent to consuming the foundation of Buddhism and shaking the foundation of rule.
"My Buddha has governed Buddha Province for three hundred years, and the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, with adequate food and clothing. It is a hundred times more peaceful and happy than when the dynasty ruled."
The monk with long eyebrows said slowly, "In order to seek Path of Immortality, the false emperor imposed heavy labor and cruelty, so that the people had no way to live. It is in line with the Buddhist dharma's eastward journey. My Buddha has illuminated thousands of people, and it is in line with the Heaven's Will people's hearts!"
"The hundreds of millions of people in Jiuzhou should bathe in the grace of the Buddha and enjoy the bliss of my Buddha!"
The words are divided into two parts.
Spirit Sword City.
Zhou Yi has stayed in Qingzhou for ten years, and the rocking chair he lies on every day has become bright and lubricated by friction.
"Xiao Linzi, you have learned Five Elements Instant Flash Technique. I have nothing to teach you anymore."
The technique of instantaneous flash is a secret technique deduced by Zhou Yi using the Five Elements Escape Technique combined with Qinggong. It consumes Mana's energy and blood instead. After it is performed, the speed will increase dramatically and it will instantly fly over a distance of more than ten feet, and it can penetrate objects of the Five Elements.
This method is no longer a pure martial art. The mystery is similar to a spell, but it consumes too much energy and blood, so you can only use the secret card!
"Immortal, are you leaving?"
Lin Fan's energy and blood flowed out of his body, and his body jumped and landed next to Zhou Yi, with a look of reluctance on his face. "Why don't Venerable Immortal stay in the mortal world, I will work hard to earn money to provide for you until you die."
"Hmph, the last guy who said that, Pindao has already buried him three times!"
Zhou Yi's body shape changed into a young one, and he sighed, "The fate is over, there is no need to miss him, even a poor man has to go back to Kunlun Mountain to practice."
"Then will I be able to make a living in the world from now on?"
Lin Fan looked hesitant and expectant. After ten years of silent cultivation, the energy and blood finally condensed into the aperture. Over time, the acupoints turned into blood elixirs. However, he was still far from the realm of breaking mountains with a single sword.
With the speed of a flash, he thrust the sword with all his strength and could only break a bluestone three to four feet in size.
"Of course."
Zhou Yi had a slightly weird look on his face. He tried hard to suppress his desire to hide behind him and watch the fun, and said solemnly, "Aperture Condensation Realm's warriors, I can kill three or four thousand of them with one slap. When you go out to explore the world, remember to be careful!"
The Qi and Blood Martial Arts Condensation Aperture is equivalent to Innate Grandmaster, which is the early stage of cultivating immortality and refining Qi.
Zhou Yi doesn't know how many innate warriors there are in Jiuzhou. It probably won't exceed three figures.
Martial arts practice does not seem to rely on spiritual energy, but without the support of Path of Immortality elixirs, the number of Innate Grandmaster is far less than before the spiritual energy disappeared, and we have to count the old immortals hidden in Buddhism and Daoism.
"Gone."
Zhou Yi waved goodbye and left gracefully. The ten years he spent with Lin Fan were quite warm, but it could not be a reason to stay.
The only thing in the world that can go with Zhou Yi is time!
Lin Fan Seeing that he couldn't keep it, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed three times and said nine times, "Immortal, I have been having a question for the past ten years. Can you tell me to clear it up?"
"Ask."
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, and he could probably guess Lin Fan's thoughts.
"Back then, I was lucky enough to be recognized as the owner of the fairy sword, but I was just a child who was not familiar with martial arts. With your strength, Immortal, you can take the fairy sword away silently."
Lin Fan said, "Either in exchange for sword skills, or giving a spiritual elixir, there is no need to bother teaching him for ten years!"
"First of all, I didn't put any effort into it. In ten years, I just blinked and closed my eyes."
Zhou Yi explained, "Secondly, if a poor man takes away Dividing Light Sword, he should be compensated for the corresponding value. How can he deceive you for a mere treasure? Today he will lie to you about the fairy sword, and tomorrow he will lie about the inheritance. Over time, he has lost his original intention!"
"The poor man has lived a long time and is strong enough, but if he loses his original intention, he will fall into the abyss sooner or later!"
"One day I used to use five buckets of spiritual rice to deceive people, and I provoked a bad guy. I learned from the past..."
Zhou Yi doesn't care whether Lin Fan understands it or not, he said this to himself, "That fairy sword has an extraordinary origin, but it is just a cripple. Trying its best, it can only push you to Innate Grandmaster."
"Now I have obtained the treasure, the fairy sword has preserved my spiritual consciousness, and you have achieved innateness. It is the best of all three and we owe nothing to each other!"
"That's it."
Lin Fan had a vague understanding, and was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart. Na Na said, "Does that mean that in the future, when I walk in the world, I can't use the name of an immortal? If one day I am in trouble, the immortal will not come to save me?"
"Children can be taught!"
Zhou Yi believes in cause and effect, but is not bound by cause and effect. If the value to be paid is too high, simply abandon Dividing Light Sword.
I am fortunate to gain it, and I will not force it if I lose it.
Without obsession, there will be no disaster!
"Be careful when traveling in the world, and don't die on the street, otherwise I will think of you in the future, and there won't even be a place to worship and burn paper..."
The lingering sound was faint, and the figure was no longer visible.
Lin Fan kowtowed a few times. Even though this was a fair transaction, the ten years of teaching cannot be faked.
"Don't worry, Immortal, I will never disgrace Kunlun's name!"
The immortal would not allow him to walk by his name, so he would just use the name of the mountain and travel around the world calling himself a disciple of Kunlun.
"That's it!"
Lin Fan stood up, slung the iron bar for sword practice around his waist, and planned to go to his brother-in-law's house to say goodbye to his sister.
Just went out.
He met the handsome young master in white, riding in a gauze sedan chair carried by four strong men, followed by eight beautiful sword attendants on the left and right.
Pedestrians along the street gave way, whispering and praising the young master. It turned out to be Sword Casting Hall, young master Wu Kun, who was rumored to have the appearance of a martial emperor!
"Martial Emperor! Martial Arts Emperor, what a domineering name."
Lin Fan sensed carefully, but he couldn't detect the depth of Wu Kun's strength. He was afraid that his skills had reached the realm of transformation, so he stepped forward to ask for advice with an excited face, "I am a junior in martial arts, please give me some advice..."
Unexpectedly, before he got even three feet away, the sword attendant frowned slightly, jumped out of the warehouse, drew his sword and stabbed straight!
Lin Fan has been cultivating for ten years and has never fought with anyone in actual combat. No matter how much his energy and blood increase, he can only survive for a few more breaths under the training of immortals.
Seeing the sharp sword thrust at him, Lin Fan pulled out the iron bar from his waist and struck vertically like an instinct.
Qi and blood flow out of the body, and shouting loudly increases the courage.
"Gravel!"
Boom!
The turbulent Sword Qi fell, and the maid turned into rain all over the sky on the spot, falling slowly and dyeing the streets blood red.
"..."
Wu Kun wiped his face and saw his hands were bright red. He was so frightened that he screamed, "Help! There is an assassin!"
Lin Fan How could he not know that he had caused a big disaster? He used his teleportation to pass through several houses and disappeared in a leap.
at this time.
Zhou Yi changed into another face. He just came out of the yellow paper shop and saw the chaos on the street.
"Pindao has taught this guy for ten years, how much merit he has accumulated!"
After saying that, he turned into a escaping light and flew towards Yunzhou.
White Cloud Peak.
Zhou Yi stood in the sky, looking at the mountain peak below that was missing most of it, and shook his head helplessly.
"Sooner or later, it will be dug into flat ground and it will have to be replaced by a hill!"
Fortunately, Earthfire Palace was built three hundred feet underground. Even if Emperor Taishi learned about this from the White Cloud Temple classics, it would be difficult to really dig a thousand meters deep.
Some yellow paper was burned in front of each grave, including his own tomb.
Then Zhou Yi went to the grave of Lao Bai and said something. It had been a thousand years and it was long overdue for reincarnation.
"It is rumored that Buddhism's secret method of nirvana and reincarnation is used to find the reincarnation of eminent monks. It is a pity that Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple escaped the catastrophe, otherwise I will fulfill my agreement with you."
"I'm not in a hurry, I have plenty of time to wait until my Buddhist heritage is exhausted, and I can browse all the classics in my collection."
After the worship, Zhou Yi turned into a escaping light and flew south until Ten Thousand Mountains.
Thorn Ridge.
Moyun City.
Zhou Yi Standing in the sky, you can see that the city has expanded several times and is quite lively and prosperous.
"After that, I will find a hilltop nearby and continue to cultivate and enlightenment!"
