Chapter 403: Obtaining the Dao and Holding the Dao Source
Mei Zu would definitely cause trouble, Xu Xing knew this before he came.
After all, she had always loved to stir up trouble in the group, but this time...
Well, it turns out that I not only say this to myself, but also in the group.
"Brother, are you watching the group?" Mei Zu handed over a pair of chopsticks. "Don't worry, it's just a joke. They must know it."
Xu Xing took the chopsticks, glanced at Hong Zun who was still adding fuel to the fire in the group, and said nothing.
This fellow Daoist Hongzun is really...
Forget it.
He directly sent to the group the picture of Hong Zun watching many goddesses and concubines dancing during the ceremony in the Heavenly Palace in the previous world of Tongxuan energy level.
Jian Zu: "I think this is probably the reason why Daoist Hongzun didn't reply to the letter."
Then, without paying attention to the reactions in the group, Xu Xing put away his phone.
If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!
Glancing at the desktop.
"Winemaking, cooking...why did you suddenly learn these?"
In the past, the ancestor of Mei could be said to be lazy, let alone brewing wine.
Only she is a true immortal, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't drink or eat.
At that time, her favorite thing was to travel around the world. Sometimes even Ji Yinxue, her only disciple, couldn't find her.
"I can't go out anyway, so I'm just sitting around doing nothing."
For a true immortal, if he makes up his mind to learn to do something, he can basically learn it.
Over the years, she seldom even left the Ancestral Cave, and completely let the Hehuan Sect run free.
"Didn't you love traveling the most in the past?" Xu Xing leaned back a little. "Now you can also travel freely with God's will. Where are you going to travel next?"
Mei Zu just shook his head slightly: "After wandering around for so many years, it's time to stop and take a rest."
After staying at home for so many years, she has become accustomed to it and is too lazy to go out.
As he said that, he stood up and poured Xu Xing a glass of wine.
"Besides, now that we have the Spiritual Network, it would be quite interesting to tease the Sword Master like this every day."
"..."
Is it really okay for you to speak like that about my senior sister in front of me?
"I think we are still very compatible. If I had known this earlier, I would have talked to her more often before."
Where did you come to the conclusion that you two are compatible?
"I'm afraid Senior Sister doesn't think so."
"Sword Master, you often say one thing and mean another."
Although he seems irritable, he is actually quite easy to talk to. As long as you know how to control yourself, Sword Master will only be angry for a short while.
"By the way, I saw on the spiritual website that the Sword Sect, the Supreme Dao Sect, and the Dragon Elephant Sky-supporting Sect also fought against the Hehuan Sect?"
"Is there?" Mei Zu frowned slightly, but soon remembered, "It's about the incident where Fan Xu, who came out of seclusion, killed three million people."
"Is there really such a thing?"
"Yes, but there are some discrepancies in the details."
Most of the versions circulating on the Internet today have a lot of artistic processing.
What's even more ridiculous is that that version was actually spread by some disciples of the Hehuan Sect in order to attract attention and gain popularity.
That Fanxu went into seclusion when Ji Yinxue was cleaning up the Hehuan Sect. After he came out, he did kill quite a few people. Some people from the Sword Sect, the Supreme Dao Sect, and the Dragon Elephant Qingtian Sect also caused trouble for the Hehuan Sect because of this.
However, because the Hehuan Sect had just been successfully whitewashed not long ago, Mei Zu was busy suppressing Tianyi and did not pay too much attention to the outside world, so she was still a little confused when the three sects came to her.
In addition, Ji Yinxue was not in the Hehuan Sect, so she had to show up in person.
After understanding the whole story, she invited an incarnation of the Sword Master to come over to serve as a witness.
But now it was said that he was forced to compromise by the threats of the three patriarchs.
However, it was from that time that she gradually became familiar with the Sword Master, which was a blessing in disguise to some extent.
As for how the spiritual internet or even the world judges her, she doesn't care.
If she really cared about what people said, she would not have chosen to take over the Hehuan Sect.
"But I was really ruthless during the incident with the Righteous Alliance."
After all, the fault was not theirs, and they even shouted the slogan of "expel the Hehuan ancestor, destroy the Hehuan sect", so if we don't take strong measures, do you really think she has no temper?
"But I was also very sensible at that time. I didn't touch anything above the Hedao level."
Ultimately, it is all about considering the overall situation.
It is rare to be in harmony with the Dao. As long as they don’t do too much evil, even if they don’t want to go to the starry sky battlefield, they generally won’t cause trouble for them.
……
……
After more than half an hour, I put away the dishes and cleaned the table.
The two returned to the warm room they had been in before.
Mei Zu leaned back on the couch and talked about what he had seen before, 'Daowang'.
"As for 'Daowang', although I can't think of a solution for the time being, I have figured out where it came from."
Because it was an important matter, she even changed her self-proclaimed name.
As a true immortal who controls the way of 'self', he observed the 'Daowang' when Brother Dao completely released the restrictions. Although he could not say that he saw through it like seeing through fire, he could still understand most of its origins.
Xu Xing sat on the mahogany chair with a serious expression.
Then I heard Mei Zu continue: "Going above the True Immortal, I am getting further and further away from the mundane world, but I am unwilling to be separated from the mundane world. The karma from my past lives is revealed, and this calamity has occurred."
True Immortal, as a being that controls the Great Dao, is a realm that can only be achieved by practitioners who cultivate certain qualities to the extreme.
As the saying goes, only when one reaches the highest level of Tao can one attain true immortality.
Live long and healthy life without illness or disaster.
In a sense, true immortals are far superior to all things in the mortal world and are contrary to common sense.
According to common sense, such existence should be absolutely objective and there should be no concept of "self" at all.
But the true immortal itself goes against common sense and is beyond the material world, so it has its own self.
Going half a step above this would be the limit.
If it is higher, it will be more detached from the world, and the balance between "self" and "Tao" will be broken.
Just like the Cang clan's current 'Dao Guang' method, it is lost in the vast avenue.
Those who adhere to the Tao will eventually transform the Tao.
Hearing this, Xu Xing couldn't help but frown: "So the appearance of this 'Daowang' is actually to allow me to maintain my self?"
"Not necessarily." Mei Zu said seriously, "I have some understanding before. Although it is still a little worse than Brother Dao, it can be regarded as a step beyond the previous framework."
"If that's all, shouldn't I be able to master the way of 'self' in one fell swoop and surpass Brother Dao directly?"
However, it is not.
Compared to Xuan who came to the Central Continent before, and her current Taoist brother, she is far inferior.
"If my guess is correct, the real reason for all this to happen is because Brother Dao fell out of the Taixuan Realm and cut off his past."
Is it because I cut off my past?
Xu Xing lowered his eyes in thought, and after a long time he slowly raised his head.
"How about it, Brother Dao, have you figured out the reason?" asked Mei Zu.
That was all she could tell.
After a long while, Xu Xing finally said softly: "Where the catastrophe begins is when the source of the Tao sprouts."
What is the source of Tao?
Just be detached but not separated from the world.
And this 'Daowang' is the starting point of this step!
"Daoyuan... above the True Immortal, Brother Dao plans to use this as his name?"
"Ah."
Nothing could be more appropriate than this. So far, the three paths of the True Immortals——
Obtain the Tao, adhere to the Tao, the source of the Tao.
It's settled then.
"What is the method to break the 'Daowang'?"
"I did think of a method, but the potential risks are quite large, so I won't consider it for now." Xu Xing smiled casually, "I have gained this for the first time, which is enough. There is no rush for it now."
The saying that those who are involved in the matter are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things clearly is really true.
It's pretty good to have a general direction as soon as you arrive.
"Thank you for this time."
"You are too polite, Brother." Mei Zu chuckled, "In that case, Brother, please stay for now. I will take a look later, and perhaps I can get something."
emm...
"Okay, thank you for bothering me then." Xu Xing did not refuse.
Just go back before the Immortal Sect Competition, but you have to inform your senior sister first.
"Yes, then I will inform Sword Master first, so that she won't wait anxiously." Mei Zu said immediately.
There was a hint of impatience in his expression.
Xu Xing: “…”
While Mei Zu was sending messages to the group of leaders, he couldn't help but think of the sword that came across the boundary when he was in the Beast God Realm and was responded to by all the heavens and worlds.
The founder of the sword art of all heavens and worlds...
When the day comes that Brother Dao breaks through the 'Daowang', I'm afraid that the entire Chaos Sea will undergo some unpredictable changes.
…………
Jianzong, the task handover point of Sirutang.
Chi Jiuyu sat on a bench in the waiting area, crossing his legs and playing with his phone.
There was a token hanging around her waist with the word "Ancestor" engraved on it, which attracted the attention of the Sword Sect disciples who were also waiting to hand over their tasks.
Sword Ancestor's Order!
As the saying goes, even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen a pig run. Although most of the disciples of the Sword Sect have never seen it, they will recognize it.
Moreover, no one in the world would be bold enough to copy this.
Junior Uncle Master...
As expected, she was the niece most loved by the Sword Ancestor according to rumors, and even the Sword Ancestor Order was given to her.
But considering her usual abstractness, everyone felt a little complicated.
It is said that Junior Uncle-Master has always wanted to be the leader of the Sword Sect. Could it be that the Sword Sect's founder really wants to help Junior Uncle-Master succeed him as the leader?
Master, please think twice!
At this moment, Chi Jiuyu seemed to be playing with her mobile phone, but in fact she was quietly observing everyone's reactions.
Obviously, she was very satisfied with their reaction!
She hung up this token specially just to show off!
Cough!
Wrong, wrong. Her purpose was actually to accumulate fame in order to prepare for the future election of the Sword Sect's leader.
Although her talent and ability are unparalleled in the world, and she is the youngest person in history to achieve Divine Transformation at the age of 22, and she is also the direct disciple of Sword Master...
【Ding Dong Dong! 】
A crisp mechanical sound interrupted her thoughts.
[On the 19th, please go to window number 3 to handle your business! ]
It's her time.
He stood up from the bench, put away his phone, and then took out the mission report from his storage ring.
After walking forward for a while and coming to the front where most people could see her, she took off the Sword Ancestor Order from her waist and put it together with the mission report.
"..."
Everyone was speechless.
As the saying goes, it feels good to show off for a while, but it feels good all the time if you keep showing off!
When she has the same powerful cultivation as her uncle, she will definitely make the entire Central Continent...
wrong!
The whole world...
Still not right!
It should be to let all the heavens and the worlds know the reputation of her, the Nine Fishermen Ancestor!
Dreaming of a bright future, she came to window number three and looked at the expressionless disciple of Si Lu Tang. She handed over the task report in her hand.
As for the Sword Ancestor Order, of course I will have to wait until he asks before giving it to him.
The Si Lu Tang disciples understood what she wanted to do, but the process still had to be followed, so they said expressionlessly:
"Uncle Junior Master, the mission report said that Grandmaster Jian Zu helped the practitioners on the fourth planet of Yuyao to make up for the deficit. Is there any relevant token to prove it?"
"Of course." Chi Jiuyu also had a blank expression on his face and handed over the token in his hand. "This is the Sword Ancestor Token, which was given to me by my uncle."
The moment the Sword Ancestor Order was obtained, the expression of the Si Lu Tang disciple could no longer hold back, and he became extremely cautious.
"Please wait."
This is the Sword Ancestor's Order!
He had only seen it in the sect's information, and it was said that the authority was ridiculously high.
Even if he shouted now, "By the order of Sword Ancestor, my salary today is 10 million contribution points," Zujian would directly transfer the contribution points to his identity jade card.
Of course, if you do that, you will definitely be beaten into an idiot by the hall master.
After a nervous inspection, he carefully handed the Sword Ancestor Order back.
Call ~
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and regained his expressionless look.
"The contribution points will be transferred to your and the mission participants' identity jade cards within ten minutes. We will also arrange for relevant personnel to investigate and deal with Yuyao Fourth Planet as soon as possible."
In fact, there is nothing to investigate. The Sword Ancestor's Sword Ancestor Order is already on the table, and everyone will be dealt with according to the law.
"Thank you."
Chi Jiuyu hung the Sword Ancestor Order back around his waist, left window number three, and then walked out of the Si Lu Tang task handover area without looking around.
……
……
Arrived outside the task handover point of Silutang.
Chi Jiuyu looked at the starry sky and the several divine clouds hanging down from the sky.
Suddenly I felt a little confused and didn't know where to go.
Hey~
Is this the emptiness after showing one’s prowess before others?
Xiao Yunlu went into seclusion, saying that she was preparing to break through to the late Jindan stage before the Immortal Sect competition, so as not to fall too far behind.
Go find Yue Ling...
Forget it.
Whether it's playing games or fighting, I'm no match for her, so there's no point in looking for her.
emm...
Just go find your senior sister!
She left as soon as she said she would. With a flash of sword light, she turned into a rainbow and rushed up to the sky, heading straight for Li Ke's residence.
Not long ago, she heard that a star domain guardian who had been stationed in the starry sky to hone himself was going to be replaced and it seemed that he was also the disciple of her uncle.
As the future sect leader, she decided to first find out who this returning star domain guardian was.
Maybe it’s a senior brother or sister who you get along well with?
There's nothing to do anyway!
As for the 'Dharma Realization' that Master just taught me...
You must learn it.
But this time when she went to the starry sky, she kept having headaches, so she decided to give her brain a break first to prevent her extraordinary wisdom from being damaged.
Besides, she brought some gifts from Yuling Star Hotel and planned to give them to her senior sister at some time. (End of this chapter)
