After Bodhi Daoist refines his true form, contact Zhou Xiao at Grand Profound Marsh and go together to find Divine Wood Tribe.
Divine Wood Tribe, Demon Race One of the thirteen clans. The genus of Zhicao Lingshen, Jade Flower elixir and so on, are not Divine Tree.
Only the Wood Essence tree spirits who have achieved enlightenment over the millennium belong to the Divine Wood Clan. However, Divine Wood Clan likes the sun and hates the shade, and does not want to live underground for a long time. Therefore, it is one of the few spirits among the Demon Race forces that lives on the earth.
Right now, the destination of Bodhi Daoist and Zhou Xiao is Desolate Ancient Forest Sea in the east.
As the saying goes, "hidden trees in the forest", if you want to hide the traces of tree spirits, there is no one more suitable than Woodland Sea.
"We're almost there, please cover up."
Zhou Xiao shook his head and said, "Be careful what you say. Remember, just call me 'Brother Daoist', don't try to cheat on me."
As he spoke, he held out the black and white flag and lightly swept it over his body, which immediately gave him a surge of vitality.
Supreme Mystery Sect advocates "yin and yang" and believes that all changes in the world are due to the corresponding effects of yin and yang. Yin and yang intersect, when yin retreats, yang advances, and when yang disappears, yin appears. They complement each other, and biochemistry is endless.
From this concept, Supreme Profound Dao Lineage monks will choose a pair of interacting Tao, such as light and darkness, life and death, movement and stillness.
Zhou Xiao rebuilt Golden Core Realm, taking "positive and negative existence and non-existence" as the criterion. If it is positive, it becomes "Myriad Curses Miro Banner". If it is negative, it becomes "Pure Realm Dust-Leaving Pennant".
The two black and white flags determine the principle of yin and yang, which can reverse the true energy in Zhou Xiao's body and simulate yang and anger.
Bodhi Daoist looked at Zhou Xiao, looking thoughtful.
"Brother Daoist, what do you think of the 'principle of movement and stillness'?"
"Movement and stillness are intertwined, which is the principle of all changes. I have an uncle who practices according to this principle."
Seeing Heng Hua smiling and saying nothing, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, what do you think you have to say?"
"Brother Dao, I forgot, I am Bodhi right now."
Zhou Xiao smiled and bowed deeply, "So, Bodhi, my dear brother, what advice do you have?"
"It's not about giving advice, but Supreme Mystery Sect's principle of Yin and Yang of movement and stillness is that the still is still and moves, not immovable.
"Movement in Tai Chi generates yang, and movement is movement; tranquility produces yin, and movement is stillness."
Supreme Mystery Sect's "quietness" is just the root of movement, a precondition for the changes in Tai Chi's yin and yang movement. It is to be still for the next movement.
Zhou Xiao looked at Bodhi Daoist in confusion.
"So, this is how the way of tranquility should be? Movement and tranquility are mutually rooted, opposite and indivisible. There is neither absolute tranquility nor absolute movement."
"But if there is a Daoism that advocates absolute tranquility, Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture will be defeated." Bodhi Daoist said with an incomprehensible expression.
"Is there such a way?" Zhou Xiao smiled.
He is also Dharma Performer, and he understands the principles behind the operation of the exercises.
Fu Henghua The so-called "quiet practice" and "dream practice", in the final analysis, also require the movement of the true energy. It is purely static and the true energy does not change at all, so how to practice?
"Is it possible that your little brother Bodhi has recently gained enlightenment and gone crazy? Even these tree Wood Essence spirits keep silent all day long. In fact, they are also growing in the dark, and they are not absolutely static."
Wood Essence Meditation corresponds to animal spirits, but it does not mean that they are absolutely static existences.
"Obsessed? Maybe." Bodhi Daoist said silently in his heart, the one who is really obsessed is your master!
Movement is yang and life occurs; stillness is yin and death occurs.
Absolute stillness, life no longer moves, the spirit no longer thinks, and there is no change. Isn't that absolute death?
It just so happens that Fu Henghua knows a book named Heavenly Book with such a concept.
Looking at Zhou Xiao, Bodhi thought: You have absolutely no idea what kind of evil stuff your master was playing in the Flowing Sand River. I suspect that the reason why he died later was because of this Heavenly Book.
Fu Henghua is very jealous of <Death-Nether Heavenly Scripture>, and thinks that this Heavenly Book is aimed at his own <Book of Creation>.
You can come to the Relict Continent, interact with Yang Dai, and see the ruins of Grand Profound Marsh with your own eyes. Fu Henghua can confirm, <Book of Changing Heaven and the Eight Extremes>, <Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture>, It was also restrained by Still-Nether Method of <Death-Nether Heavenly Scripture>. It may also include <Taiyin Heavenly Book>, <Profound Radiance True Canon> and <Golden Canon of Primordial Unity>, which had already been broken by Dismemberment Art.
What is Heavenly Book?
When Earth Canon Immortal Art intercepted a link from heaven and earth Wanxiang for his own use, the descendants of Heavenly Book formed Dao Embryo in the body, constructing a world system independent of heaven and earth.
My body is heaven and earth, and my body is the great road.
This is the idea that exists in every Heavenly Book. The difference lies in the core principle of every "Heavenly Book World".
Taiyin Heavenly Book simulates his core world as a moon.
Taiyin's cycle of ups and downs is its spiritual practice.
By analogy, since the moon can be regarded as a world, the sun and stars can also be regarded as one. Therefore, the sun Moon Star and the three lights should all have the Heavenly Book method.
Book of Changing Heaven and the Eight Extremes believes that the world is easy and changes between the eight trigrams Wanxiang. Senluo Wanxiang is all about the way of change, and change is change, and it is consistent with the concept of <Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture>.
<Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture> believes that the world is composed of yin and yang, and is constantly moving between yin and yang. When the movement stops, it is not death, but saving for the next movement and rebirth.
This concept is very similar to <Creation's Epoch-Reunion Art>. Heavenly Book of Fu Henghua simulates the reincarnation of heaven and earth. Each reincarnation of the world is a mortal's one year of life, experiencing birth, old age, illness and death.
Book of Creation does not exclude death, but incorporates death into the concept of Creation. Between the reincarnation of heaven and earth, there are spring, summer, autumn and winter, birth, illness and death.
After death in heaven and earth, it will immediately transfer to the next reincarnation and complete the growth of one year old.
The reason why Heng Hua admits that <Book of Creation> was born out of <Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture> is that the two have similar understandings of life and death. Grand Mystery Heavenly Scripture defines the "yin quiet" as winter. Isn't it all for the sake of hiding in winter and for the spring growth of yang energy in the coming year?
Take a look at all the Heavenly Book methods that Fu Henghua has mastered or conceived.
The principles of Heavenly Book are a theoretically self-consistent worldview. All laws in the world are included in the principles of Heavenly Book. Death is naturally no exception.
Taiyin's dimming, the sun's dusk and dawn, the stars' collapse and rebirth.
Yi Dao's Myriad Things Born died, Taixuan's Yin-Yang Transmutation, Creation's one-year-old reincarnation.
The transformation of the five elements, the one talisman of Heavenly Talisman produces Wanxiang, and the nine transformations of Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique.
Being above death is the core requirement that every Heavenly Book must achieve.
But <Death-Nether Heavenly Scripture> is different.
What it calls the Tao, its final death, is absolute stillness.
A world that dies and ceases to move.
The principle of Heavenly Book that it recognizes is not the movement of the world, but the corpse of the world.
No matter how the world moves and changes, whether the sun and the moon rise and fall, or the four seasons of spring and autumn, it will eventually die, towards absolute Chaos and death.
This Heavenly Book Daoist method can kill other Heavenly Book descendants and cut off the possibility of the world's regeneration.
Same thing, as Zhou Xiao said.
If practice enters a state of absolute stillness, is it still called practice?
Cultivation and action are all methods of movement.
At the end of the practice, you will become a being whose great path never changes, and whose self never moves or thinks. Isn't the direction of practice in this book Heavenly Book to kill yourself completely?
Bodhi An inexplicable thought occurred to him.
Perhaps, the founder of the Mysterious Subtle Sect is already Dao Attainment Realm!
Cross the realm of immortals and touch the coveted Daoist fruits.
However, his Heavenly Book Dao Fruit is nothing but death.
"This book is full of paradoxes and cannot be practiced at all."
But if someone practices according to <Death-Nether Heavenly Scripture> and becomes Death-Nether Dao-Light in the process of practice, he will defeat a group of descendants of Heavenly Book.
Looking back, let me find an opportunity to destroy that thing at the bottom of the Flowing Sand River! I believe other descendants of Heavenly Book will support it if they find out about it, right?
Bodhi Daoist While thinking about it, the two came to the edge of the Woodland Sea.
The vast and boundless blue ocean is filled with thick and vast Azure Wood Qi.
It is obviously the energy of vitality, but it makes people feel like the majesty of mountains and the magnificence of rivers.
Zhou Xiao sighed:
"The Wood Essence who practices here must be the Tree King and the Wood Ancestor."
Bodhi Daoist gently shook the wonderful tree in his hand, and Azure Wood Qi transformed into two Azure Dragon at his feet, carrying him into the forest.
Zhou Xiao followed suit, and also used wood energy to enlighten a Azure Luan, riding a luan into the forest.
Giant trees rise from the ground, towering into the sky and covering the clouds.
Flying on the Woodland Sea at low altitude, I felt a different kind of tranquility in the quiet forest.
It's just that Bodhi Daoist was thinking about <Death-Nether Heavenly Scripture>, and when he saw this peaceful and quiet nature Woodland Sea, he couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.
"Wait a minute, there aren't even birds chirping here?"
"Woodland Sea, even if there are no birds, there should be animals, no, are they insects?"
The two looked at each other and noticed the strangeness of this Woodland Sea.
Here, it seems to be a pure world of wood, with no other life besides trees.
"Is it because of the struggle and estrangement within Demon Race?"
Zhou Xiao After thinking about it, a man immediately called the door.
"I am a disciple of poor Daoist Zhou Xiao, Supreme Profound Dao Lineage Mysterious Subtle Sect, and I have come especially to ask to see the Woodland Sea tree king."
"The poor Daoist Bodhi, the first Rogue Cultivator, practice in Mind-Terrace Square-Inch Mountain, Slanting-Moon Three-Stars Cave."
The two of them urged the method, but their voices disappeared shortly after the Woodland Sea came out.
The method of silence.
Bodhi Daoist murmured in his heart. Is there also an expert here who has understood "absolute stillness"? Isn't this looking for death?
Wait, he's not really dead, is he?
The Daoist reacted instantly, lightly stamped his feet on Azure Dragon, and forcefully pulled Zhou Xiao straight to the depths of the Woodland Sea.
On the outside the Woodland Sea, you can still see some small saplings under the big trees. But the further you go in, the trees are all more than a thousand years old.
Human faces emerged from the tree trunks, each one old and twisted.
Zhou Xiao was shocked and said, "There are so many tree spirits, Divine Wood Clan has extraordinary strength - wait, why are they all sleeping?"
"You're not sleeping, are you about to die?"
Bodhi Daoist murmured, "The spell of absolute stillness. Sorry, the first Divine Tree tree king you and I found is actually an expert equal to Patriarch Xuanwei?"
"Master? What does this have to do with Master?"
Bodhi Daoist shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, "If Patriarch Xuanwei comprehends Still-Nether Method in the Tribulation Immortal Realm, then the tree king here should also Only in the corresponding realm, or even a higher realm, can we have contact? In other words, the old tree king here may be beyond our imagination. It is a statue that is about to fall - maybe, it is the dead Wood Spirit Tribulation Immortal."
The two went straight to the center of the Woodland Sea.
It was a dead zone a hundred feet in diameter.
The thick dead air turned the soil into black and gray. The branches and leaves of the old tree spirits on the edge of the dead area fell off one by one, leaving only the bare old branches lingering.
In the center of the dead zone, there is only an old pile and a towering ash pile.
Seeing the ashes, Zhou Xiao suddenly thought of something familiar.
"Quicksand?"
Jade Court Mountain bottom, dead sand inside the Flowing Sand River?
