Chapter 19 Breaking the Situation
Chapter 19 Breaking the Situation
"what?"
"Why are you in such a hurry to refine the Tan Ye Divine Talisman? Didn't you say before that you should make all preparations before taking action? This matter is extremely dangerous. Why don't you wait a little longer?"
"No, I don't quite understand this. Is anyone anxious to deal with you now?"
"It can't be Changzhou Academy, right?"
"The academy can only be a nuisance at best, but it can't do anything shady...Are you worried about the Sky Patrol?"
"What does the Patrol have to worry about? Gu Zhuo is a good man. He just killed a killer today. The government should thank him for getting rid of harm for the people! How could they come to deal with him?"
"...What you all said makes sense, so why is he in such a hurry to refine the Tan Ye Divine Talisman?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the place suddenly became quiet.
Gu Zhuo looked at the wooden box in his hand with a complicated expression, and said softly: "I know this is very dangerous, but I have to do it because it is the fastest way to break through the realm."
Hearing these words, they became even more confused.
Practicing Buddhism is indeed a difficult thing.
From reading a book a hundred times to seek its meaning by yourself, to tempering the body to cleanse away the impurities, to gathering Qi within the body to initially refine the True Essence, and using this as a foundation to glimpse the flow of Qi between heaven and earth, until you understand it clearly in your mind, then you can try to take the step towards the truth.
Only by attaining the true state can one nourish the spirit, and then let the spirit travel around the world to receive the will of heaven and earth, eventually achieving the unity of spirit and body, and casting off all worldly shackles.
When all the shackles are removed, the person will naturally be pure. Only when he is pure can he attain the Tao. After attaining the Tao, he will be able to ascend to heaven, until he achieves the final ascension to heaven. From then on, he will be free between heaven and earth, hide his life in the long river of time, and live forever.
This is the long and arduous path of practice that every practitioner in the world is familiar with. When ordinary practitioners are climbing this path, they must of course seize every opportunity and not miss even a moment.
However, Gu Zhuo is not an ordinary person.
When he came to Changzhou Academy three years ago, he had not even undergone marrow cleansing. Today, three years later, he has completed Qi training and is standing in front of Dongzhen's door. He doesn't know when he will take the step that many of his classmates dream of.
Everyone believed that as long as he was given enough time, he would go very far on the path of cultivation.
Even though what Gu Zhuo lacks most at the moment is time.
But precisely because he did not have enough time, he had never felt anxious about practicing in this life.
Because no matter how fast he cultivated, it was impossible for him to break through and reach immortality in just one year, thereby solving the biggest problem he faced in one fell swoop. So why should he be so anxious about his cultivation?
Why do you have to rush today?
Why are you so determined to refine the Tan Ye Divine Talisman immediately?
"Because the person you mentioned earlier, who had a terrifying aura, gave me a familiar feeling."
Gu Zhuo said seriously: "I am now very popular, and it is very likely that I will be noticed by this person. I must prepare as soon as possible."
The cool breeze passed through the hall, bringing with it a lot of confusion.
"It's just that I'm somewhat familiar with him. Is it necessary to this extent?"
Gu Zhuo was still serious and said solemnly, "It's very serious."
That was all he said, but he was thinking about more than that.
When the wind was roaring with what he had seen and heard not long ago, he also felt the horrifying atmosphere of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Although he had never seen with his own eyes who that person was, the feeling of déjà vu was so real.
More importantly, that person's realm is extremely high, and it is possible that he can discover his deepest secret.
This was a consequence that Gu Zhuo could not accept.
But as long as he breaks through the realm of truth and steps onto the true path, he will have the confidence to hide his secrets, or at worst have the ability to escape thousands of miles away.
This is why he decided to start refining the Tan Ye Divine Talisman in advance.
Even in his original conception, the Tan Ye Divine Talisman was the last and most dangerous option, and he should have made all possible preparations before trying to refine it... At this time, the prerequisites must be met.
"understood."
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone disturb you!"
"How about we cooperate and have another heavy rainstorm? We can keep everyone at home."
"It's not summer now. It's really strange that there's a heavy rain for no reason. If it attracts other people's attention and they come to our door, wouldn't that be bad news?"
"Who's going to put up a sign outside saying no visiting?"
"He has to do it himself. If we do it and someone sees us, won't there be problems?"
The voices in Gu Zhuo's sea of consciousness were still noisy, but unlike before, they now revealed extremely obvious emotions of worry.
This is reflected in many aspects.
The spring breeze is still blowing, but it is no longer gentle, but inexplicably cold.
The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and combined with the humid air, it was like a steamer. It was afternoon, and the moonlight had no way of setting, but its shadow had already emerged faintly.
The earth was motionless, seemingly unchanged as always, yet it was like a bronze drum about to be struck.
Until one moment, Gu Zhuo opened the wooden box.
All sounds disappeared.
A ball of dark purple light floated out from it and slowly appeared in front of his eyes.
Like a flower drifting in the wind.
This is the Tan Ye Divine Talisman, a precious treasure that can allow a practitioner to instantly reach the highest peak of his life, but will wither and die immediately afterwards, so it is regarded as a worthless treasure.
He stared at the flower silently for a moment, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his fingertips fell.
At the moment of meeting, Gu Zhuo saw the world again.
……
……
It was an extremely wonderful and refreshing feeling.
The shackles of the body were directly untied, and the soul, no longer restrained, set out on a long journey, passing through the eaves and rubble, and flying towards the vast and boundless sky.
The whole of Wangjing was now in his sight, with the complex crisscrossing roads, countless horse-drawn carriages running on the road, and the densely packed black dots like ants... Everything was so blurry, but as long as he thought about it, he could see it clearly.
Even the familiar terrifying aura deep in the palace was clearly witnessed by him.
If Gu Zhuo does not control himself, his soul will continue to be lifted up until it loses the way back and eventually merges with the heaven and earth.
At this moment, a ray of sunlight suddenly enveloped him, bringing just the right warmth.
So he closed his eyes and let the wind, coming from nowhere, carry his body back to his destination.
……
……
Gu Zhuo opened his eyes.
At some point, a petal appeared on his fingertips.
The next moment, the petal was pressed against his forehead, soaking into his brows like drizzle, and disappeared without a trace.
The flower made of faint light still exists, but one piece is missing.
He looked at it quietly for a moment, then put the missing Tan Ye Talisman into the wooden box, stood up and walked out.
It was getting dark, and the evening fire was burning brightly.
The evening breeze came from the distant sky, passed through the woods and across the water, and entangled the corners of my clothes.
Just then, there was a knock on the gate.
Gu Zhuo opened the door.
Standing behind the door was Lin Wanyi.
After waking up, the girl saw the sun setting in the west, so she wanted to have dinner with Gu Zhuo to discuss how to deal with Changzhou Academy.
When she came to this courtyard and knocked on the door, she was thinking about this question seriously and had no other thoughts.
However, when she saw Gu Zhuo at this moment, just as she was about to speak, she was subconsciously stunned.
"Is something wrong?"
Gu Zhuo asked.
Lin Wanyi looked at him, frowning, and said, "Why do you give me a different feeling than at noon? What have you been doing?"
"Did not do anything."
Gu Zhuo's voice was calm: "It just took a little time to break through."
After a moment of silence, Lin Wanyi asked, "Dong Zhen?"
Gu Zhuo hummed.
