Chapter 37: Recruiting named disciples and breaking the shackles of the Taoist heart
Time flies, and thousands of years pass in a flash.
There is still no major war in the prehistoric world, and small wars continue. The aura of disaster between heaven and earth is getting heavier, as if brewing an unprecedented war.
On the Eternal Island, in the Yuxu Palace, Yuanshi woke up from enlightenment. Ten thousand years of retreat, for him, is just a blink of an eye, and there is no obvious improvement in cultivation. He only digested the gains of the Three Pure Ones' discussion of Taoism during this retreat. Laozi's inaction of Yin and Yang, Tongtian's sword and array are all unique.
After all, everyone's Tao is different, even if it is the same Tao, everyone's understanding will be different, and no one dares to say that he knows all of them.
The most important thing is that Yuanshi's path is destined to take the strengths of hundreds of schools, and he cannot close his eyes to build a car, so it is inevitable to discuss Taoism with fellow Taoists.
There is another purpose for this retreat, which is to enhance the Wuji Seal. The Wuji Seal was just created and has not been perfected. Yuanshi's retreat this time is to perfect the Wuji Seal. The result was not very ideal. Although the Wuji Seal was perfected, it was still in the primary stage and could not exert great power. It was not as powerful as the Dao Seals such as the Kaitian Seal, the Mieshi Seal, and the Zhushen Seal.
However, Yuan Hui was not discouraged. He had plenty of opportunities to continue to perfect it in the future. Since it had already been created, he had it at the beginning. Why should he be afraid of the difficulty of the process?
At the same time, Yuan Shi also found that his physical body was still not strong enough. "Xuanhuang Immortal" had been stuck at the third level. It was time to enter the fourth level. I wonder if Ao Yuwan had completed the task he assigned. If it was completed, it would be better. If not, he would have to do it himself. However, he still didn't want to do it himself until the last step, because this was in the quantitative calamity. If he was not careful, he would be dragged into the quantitative calamity.
If he was involved in the quantitative calamity, he would either enter the calamity and wait for the quantitative calamity to end, or die in the quantitative calamity. There was no other possibility. Don't even think about avoiding the quantitative calamity. If you can avoid it, it won't be called the quantitative calamity.
"Hmm?" After walking out of Yuxu Palace, Yuan Shi found that there were a few more children in his yard.
Children, yes, children.
There were four more children in front of the courtyard, two boys and two girls, who looked only about eleven or twelve years old. The two boys, one was dressed in white, with a pale face and pure eyes. The other was dressed in black, with a firm face, serious and unsmiling, and his eyes were full of determination.
Two girls, one was wearing a dark green dress, with long dark green hair, a pair of dark green eyes, a ruddy face, and was silent. The other girl was wearing a white dress, a white lotus on her head, her skin was white, and her little face was filled with a snow lotus-like smile.
Yuanshi thought of a sentence, the most gentle thing was that bowed head, like a water lotus shy in the cool breeze.
"Hello, teacher!" The four children came over to bow to Yuanshi when they saw him come out.
"Huh? Teacher?" Yuanshi was stunned. Teacher, when did he accept an apprentice? How come he didn't know it himself.
However, as soon as he thought about it, Yuanshi immediately knew what was going on. This made Yuanshi laugh and cry.
To say that the origin of these four children is really related to Yuanshi.
Ten thousand years ago, when the three Yuanshi preached, they did not control their voices. Therefore, the sound of the Tao spread throughout the Eternal Island, and all the creatures on the Eternal Island benefited from it. Some were able to open their spiritual wisdom, some were able to obtain the method of cultivation, and some had their cultivation bases increased and quickly transformed. Especially the creatures near the Yuxu Palace.
And the four children in front of them are the creatures near the Yuxu Palace. They got the opportunity and transformed out of it. The two boys, the boy in white, transformed from the white crane in the Yuxu Palace, and the boy in black, transformed from the black pine in front of the palace. And among the two girls, the one in the dark green dress was transformed from the black bamboo in front of the palace, and the girl in the white dress was transformed from a white lotus in the Shenquan Pond.
Looking at the four children in front of him, Yuanshi suddenly didn't know what to do. Their qualifications were just superior, not too good, nor too bad. If he accepted them, wouldn't it be a bit unworthy of my name, Yuanshi Tianzun.
But, if he didn't accept them, what would he do? Let them go free and ignore them? That wouldn't be good.
After thinking for a long time, Yuanshi made up his mind and said: "Forget it, forget it. Since you are destined to be with me, I will accept you as my registered disciples. You will live in Yuxu Palace in the future." At this moment, Yuanshi figured it out. Damn your qualifications. What's wrong with average qualifications? Do you think I, Yuanshi Tianzun, would care about this mere qualification issue? I am not another Yuanshi Tianzun in the prehistoric world. Even if the qualifications are not good, so what? I can still let him practice. "Thank you, teacher, for taking me in!" The four of them thanked them repeatedly, their faces full of joy, as if children who had left home had found their home all of a sudden. Yuanshi saw the innocent smiles on the faces of the four children, and he seemed to be infected, and a smile appeared on his face. He hadn't seen such a smile for a long time, so long that he almost forgot where he came from. This kind of smile was something I had only seen in my previous life. Ever since I came to Primal Chaos and became the Demon God of Karma, and then came to the Primordial World and became Yuanshi Tianzun, I have been either practicing or calculating all day long. This kind of life has lasted for countless epochs, so long that I am too lazy to count.
I almost forgot that I am still a human being in my bones.
Yes, since I am a human, I will have seven emotions and six desires. I am not on the path of Tai Shang Wangqing. Human emotions cannot be avoided by escaping or forgetting. As the saying goes, the longer you suppress, the more severe the explosion will be.
I followed the path of Yuanshi and never tabooed my feelings. I kept a straight face all day long and had forgotten what a smile was. It seems that after staying in the wilderness for a long time, there is a problem with the brain.
I am walking the path of great freedom and freedom!
What I want is not to be restricted by others, and I can only control my own destiny!
What I want is to step on the heaven and earth, before transcending the great road, to be immortal!
Instead of being like this now, doing nothing but practicing all day long, I almost don’t know the joy of life anymore.
So, from now on, I want to be the real me, not the me who only knows how to practice.
These thoughts flashed through Yuanshi's mind, and his mind couldn't help but lighten up, as if he had broken free from some shackles, and his state of mind was at a higher level. Even his soul had increased a lot. The fifth level of "Nine Transformations of Divine Origin" was increasing rapidly, and it was here in the blink of an eye. The fifth late stage.
"Ha ha!
I have a Taoist heart, which has been blocked by dust for a long time.
Today the shackles are gone, and the light shines through thousands of mountains and rivers! "
People themselves have no shackles, it is we who have to put endless shackles on ourselves for various reasons! When can we truly understand ourselves and break away from these shackles!
As his cultivation level increased, his mood strengthened, and more importantly, he began to face himself, and his heart felt comfortable. When Yuan Shi looked at the four children in front of him again, he suddenly felt that they were still very good.
He decided to reward these four boys well.
