Kunlun Mountain, Sanqing Dojo.
Sea of Clouds is steaming, Immortal Qi is lingering in the Jade Void Palace, but there is a solemn atmosphere that is different from the past.
Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were sitting cross-legged on top of Cattail Hassock. Although there were tea cups in front of them, no one moved them.
Laozi's face is as smooth as ever, and his eyes are deep, as if he is staring at Tai Chi's principles in the void.
Primordial Heavenly Lord frowned slightly, his expression was solemn, and his whole body faintly exuded an awe-inspiring aura of upholding orthodoxy and upholding principles.
Tongtian Sect Master sat upright, with an imperceptible sharpness and curiosity flashing from time to time in his eyes.
"Lord Wanshouyuan Sage preached,"
Primordial Heavenly Lord was the first to break the silence, with a low voice, "What he said is the principle of Earth Dao Reincarnation, which is different from the method of Heavenly Dao Xuanmen that we practice.
Our brothers, thanks to the great love of our teacher, have recorded it on the door wall and taught it personally, giving Hong Meng Purple Qi, now Orthodox Xuanmen, and in the future Heavenly Dao Saint.
If you go to Longevity Mountain to listen to Earthly Dao's method at this time..."
He paused and his tone became more serious. "You must not look good in front of the teacher, for fear of being suspected of being virtuous, and it is more likely to be contaminated by unknown Karma, disturbing your pure Daoist heart.
Moreover, the Earthly Dao method has not been established for a long time. How can we know that it is perfect?
If it conflicts with our Heavenly Dao foundation, wouldn't it be asking for trouble?"
Yuanshi attaches great importance to origin, orthodoxy and order.
In his opinion, Sanqing, as the direct descendant of Hongjun and the first disciple of the Mystic Sect, has a distinguished status and must have a clear stance.
You must not easily get involved in another Daoist system that may be "competing", even if you are just listening to a lecture.
Laozi slowly opened his half-closed eyes, and there seemed to be a Yinyang fish shadow slowly flowing in his eyes. He glanced at Yuanshi, then glanced at Tongtian, who seemed calm but had a slight aura, and said slowly:
"What my second brother said is not unreasonable. As we inherit the teacher's mantle, we really need to uphold our integrity.
Earth Dao Rise, the contribution of completion is indispensable, but the methods are different after all.
If we go there rashly, we will easily get sidetracked, and we are afraid that it will add Variable to our path to understanding the Purple Qi, enlightening the Tao and becoming a saint. It is better to stay Kunlun quietly and study our own way carefully, which is the foundation."
Laozi has a more detached attitude, but is also more inclined to avoid risks and focus on the established path leading to Heavenly Dao Saint.
He believes that the current primary goal is to become a saint as soon as possible, and anything that may distract Variable, or even cause Dao Ancestor's displeasure should be carefully avoided.
Tongtian Listening to the words of the two brothers, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to refute, but finally endured it.
He knew that the two brothers, especially Yuanshi, had extremely firm attitudes when it came to matters related to "position" and "teacher's face."
Although he likes heroes by nature, he admires Lord Wanshouyuan's courage to create New Dao, establish Reincarnation, and build Underworld.
I am also full of curiosity about the completely different principles of Earth Dao Reincarnation.
I even vaguely feel that there may be something in it that can confirm and supplement my Sword Dao and the formation, but if I say that I want to go now, it will definitely lead to disputes.
His eyes rolled slightly, and he was already calculating in his heart, but on the surface he looked like he was doing the right thing and said:
"What the eldest brother and the second brother said is true. It is really not appropriate for us to go there in person.
It is better to concentrate on understanding the purple energy." However, under his lowered eyes, there was a hint of cunning.
My brothers won't let me go, so I will divide myself into a clone with pure sword intent and restrained aura and go forward.
Not only can you get a glimpse of the mysteries of Earthly Dao, it will open your eyes, but you will not be personally involved in danger or get too deeply involved in Karma, and you will not lose the respect of the teacher. How wonderful!
Tongtian is unruly by nature, and he relies on Sword Dao's profound knowledge. He has created a clone that can carry some of his perception, but has very little connection with the main body Karma. He is confident that it can hide from ordinary detection.
Western Lands, Spirit Mountain deep.
The bamboo forest swayed and made a soft rustling sound, which further enhanced the thin spiritual energy and desolate scene of this place.
Jieyin and Zhunti were sitting opposite each other. The iconic look of pain on their faces was almost too strong to be removed at this moment.
"Senior brother," Zhunti spoke first, his voice dry.
"Senior Zhenyuanzi has great kindness to me Western Lands. He gave me Hong Meng Purple Qi, which is the foundation of enlightenment.
His avatar Lord Wanshouyuan Sage preaches, preaching Earthly Dao principles of virtue and Reincarnation Order that may be similar to my Western Lands...
Due to emotions and reasons, it seems that we... should not be absent."
There was hesitation and longing in his tone.
Western Lands is barren and Daoism is not prosperous. He instinctively does not want to miss any opportunity to obtain new ideas, new methods, or even forge good relationships.
Jieyin slowly plucked the string of dim Prayer Beads in his hand, and sighed, as if he had exhausted Western Lands's eternal poverty:
"Don't I know the heart of my junior brother? I am grateful and thirsty for knowledge. It is all a favor. However..."
He raised his eyes and looked at Eastern Lands. His gaze seemed to penetrate the endless void and saw Zixiao Palace hanging Chaos high.
"Dao Ancestor Hongjun, in harmony with Heavenly Dao, is the source of Primordial Wilderness's Daoism, supreme.
Although we have not officially joined his disciples as personal disciples, we have heard about the teachings in the Zixiao Palace and have been influenced by him.
That Lord Wanshouyuan Sage, although its path is high, is finally newly established, and its potential to stand alongside Heavenly Dao Xuanmen is beginning to show.
If we go to attend the lecture openly, wouldn't we be despising Dao Ancestor and trying to do both things?
Eastern Lands What will those powerful people, especially Sanqing, think of us?
Western Lands is already weak. If we offend Dao Ancestor again and make Eastern Lands jealous, we may lose hope of revitalization!"
Jieyin considered it more deeply and was more concerned about potential position risks and possible chain reactions.
It is not that he is ungrateful to Zhenyuanzi, nor is he uninterested in Earthly Dao's legal principles.
However, under the trade-off between survival and development, he chose a more conservative and prudent path - trying not to clearly stand on his side to avoid becoming the center of the storm.
Zhunti's face became more distressed, his brows furrowed, and he was clearly struggling in his heart.
On one side are great favors and possible opportunities, on the other side are potential huge risks and the majesty of Taozu.
After a long silence, a trace of determination flashed in Zhunti's eyes, and he lowered his voice and said:
"Senior brother, why don't you... let me go alone? Senior brother, you stay behind Spirit Mountain and devote yourself to practice to show that I Western Lands do not dare to disrespect Dao Ancestor.
And I, changing my appearance, gathering my breath, quietly went to Longevity Mountain, only listening from a distance, not showing off the scenery, not having deep friendship with others.
I just hope that after hearing the teachings of Earthly Dao, I may be able to draw parallels and find some opportunities for Revitalize the West.
In this way, not only can we have some friendship with senior Zhenyuanzi and understand Earthly Dao True Situation, but we will not openly offend Dao Ancestor.
Even if Dao Ancestor asks about it in the future, or Eastern Lands has gossip, there is still room for change."
When Jieyin heard this, the expression on his withered face changed, and the speed of moving Prayer Beads with his fingers increased a bit.
He knew that his junior brother was full of possibilities, and this method seemed to be a compromise, but in fact it still had risks, but it might be the only option that could take both ends into account at the moment.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh, "That's all... Junior brother, you must be extremely careful and leave as soon as you hear anything. Don't get Karma, let alone reveal your whereabouts.
Western Lands... can no longer withstand the storm."
Zhunti nodded heavily. "Senior brother, don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion."
