Chapter 4 The Three Volumes of Taoism
The three volumes of Taoist books are only 5,000 words! Xiao Chen only understands one or two.
However, the first volume briefly draws out the general realm of practicing Taoism, and summarizes some ancient ways of practicing Taoism, which is also the most detailed and easy-to-understand volume that Ye Kai reads.
In fact, in ancient times, practicing Taoism was to practice Taoism, and there was no division of realms. In ancient times, powerful people, the sky collapsed and the earth broke, and mountains and rivers flowed against the flow, and life and death were divided. Where could the division of realms be divided?
In ancient times, the vitality was vast and monks practiced more than Taoism. They were brave and cruel, and fighting for life and death was common.
The ancient witches did not practice Taoism, did not understand their own body, and did not know their souls. They could not fly to the sky and escape from the earth, but they were able to step on the earth with their feet, and with the power of their bodies, they were also comparable to those of ancient powers.
"But without practicing Taoism, there was an era like the ancient times when the vitality was sufficient and the magical flowers and fruits were light and available. There were countless powerful people with superb skills in life and death, and they did not practice Taoism. No matter how high the skills were, they would be erased by the years and could not be swallowed by disasters. Xiao Chen had a little enlightenment in his heart..."
"If the technique is water: the Tao is a boat. Water carries a boat, and the boat carries one's body."
However, both are indispensable. Xiao Chen unfolds the first volume again... The division of realms was also after the decline of ancient times that the realm of cultivators in the human world had a relatively systematic and rough division: "Three major realms and three small realms, collectively known as six realms."
"The three small realms are Qi refining, God-turning, and Taoist palace. Each of these three small realms is divided into three levels, small success, great success, and perfection."
"Three great realms, four poles, the Tao, and the other shore. There are four changes in the four levels, seven changes in the Tao, and nine changes in the other shore."
As for the six realms, there are not many records, but Xiao Chen is very sure. The division of the six realms is only aimed at ordinary cultivators.
Because I only mentioned it in the Taoist volume in detail, I obviously did not pay attention to the division of realms, and even had nothing to do with it. Instead, I focused on recording two ancient ways of practicing.
Tao and art practiced separately in ancient times. There were few people who practiced Taoism and art.
Using all external forces as one's own art, using oneself to move the veins of heaven and earth, and calling the power of heaven and earth like an arm. It is easy to learn but difficult to master, but Tao is initially difficult to pass through the sky. Once you understand it, it will be natural and you can understand all the laws.
"There is no question of which is higher or lower, and the ultimate realm of Tao is the same as the same path."
I focused on some small words under the first volume, which was very likely written by the masters who wrote these three volumes of Taoist books. Xiao Chen read it carefully and did not dare to miss it, but the overall meaning was also easy to understand.
"The road is more than three thousand? Can the road be completed?"
Silence is hard to say, and the ancient great powers all felt that the Tao is endless. Our generations are more than a thousand miles apart from the ancient great powers. We should be brave and diligent and move forward against the current.
Volumes 2 and 3 are two ways of practice. Volumes 2 are the great killing technique called "The Death of Killing God". Xiao Chen was difficult to understand and only put it aside. After all, it was too difficult and profound.
The third volume is the Taoist ritual called "The Seal of the Unmoved Mountains and Rivers", which specializes in the Taoist ritual of the Yuanshen. By constantly simulating all stars and things, forming the Taoist seal with hands, suppressing one's own body, and practicing to the extreme. All things are not invaded, there is a kind of seal of mountains and rivers that remains unmoved, and the great way of heaven and earth is always used for me. The sun and the moon move but I do not move, and the mountains and rivers flow against the flow is the supreme method to protect one's own body.
At this time, Xiao Chen had some insights. I am afraid that "The Death of Killing God" and "The Seal of Unmoving Mountains and Rivers" were complementary and reunified. The powerful man in ancient books really wanted to integrate Tao and art, and no longer distinguish them.
When Xiao Chen first entered the world of cultivation, he could also understand it in a short time. Only when the two volumes of Taoist books were verified and combined with each other, Tao and art could only be integrated and inseparable, so that the two volumes of supreme Dharma could be maximized.
Holding the three light and nothingness in the Taoist scriptures in your hand, your heart is already full of ups and downs. Whether it is Tao or technique, it is exhausted at its peak. If it is combined with two, its power will be even more unpredictable.
But whether it is possible to combine it or not, the second volume and the third volume of Taoist scriptures are not perfect, and there is still a trend of infinite destruction and evolution. There is only a starting point, no end point; as the ancient great power who wrote these three volumes of Taoist scriptures said: "The way is not empty, the road is not over, and the flowers are not blooming, and the whole moon is not full."
Everything still has room for perfection. It can be seen how amazing the ancient powers who have produced the three volumes of Taoist scriptures are, but it is also because of the unpredictability of the second and third volumes.
Therefore, it would be a bit like Xiao Chen's secret speculation. If he was a Taoist Cihang and Taoist Tongtian, he could naturally take other methods to make up for his own shortcomings. Compare them in pairs and go further.
The three volumes of Taoist scriptures have been passed down to this day, and few people have fellow practitioners, "The God of Death of Death" and "The Seal of Unmoving Mountains and Rivers". Even though they know that combining it with the technique is the perfect path of Tao, few people have such great perseverance and great determination.
From ancient times to the present tens of thousands of years, there may be many people who practice Taoism and art, but they all focus on it, especially after the decline of ancient times. For thousands of years, monks have focused on practicing Taoism and supplemented by practicing art. In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, but gradually only treating art as a branch, resulting in the loss of countless ancient supreme magic techniques.
Xiao Chen naturally did not know the current situation in the world of cultivation, and devoted himself to the oath of killing the dragon. However, he insisted on his thoughts and prepared fellow practitioners of Taoism and arts to verify and seek the perfect way.
In the quiet purple bamboo forest, the purple bamboos swayed, constantly exuding a liquid spiritual energy.
They entangle each other, like a hundred birds returning to the phoenix. At first, they condense into a vortex as big as a fist, gradually stretching, constantly connecting the spiritual energy from all directions.
Xiao Chen's hands kept forming seals, and his eyebrows were shining. He hooked up a large amount of spiritual energy in the vortex to cleanse himself and protect his mind.
At the fingertips, the extremely beautiful lotus stretched out; it swayed gently, and stood quietly in the void in a harmonious posture that had existed since time immemorial, constantly pouring light like the moon.
The marks are constantly changing, and the sun and the moon are like the sun and the moon, which have existed forever, transforming the majestic and beautiful mountains and rivers. They also transform into infinite plants and trees. In the blink of an eye, there are slow changes and fast changes, the sun and moon pour out, and the mountains and rivers change.
Xiao Chen felt something faintly, his mind grew stronger bit by bit, and gradually became tacit with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. In the breath, the spiritual energy was entangled; Xiao Chen forgot to be tired, and his eyes were quietly connected. The spinning eyes between his eyebrows and the eyes were quietly rotating, but his hands were constantly changing. His body was filled with the moonlight of lotus, as ethereal as if nothing had happened, but he gradually entered the state of forgetting oneself.
Cihang opened his eyes and showed a hint of surprise. Could this person be really surprised and beautiful, and then he counted his fingers and the divine light in his eyes became more and more colorful.
After a long time, he shook his head and sighed, and said to himself in a daze; "How come he is so strange, and it evolves like this, it is also a fog, eliminating the bloodline of the Human Emperor. There is nothing else, it seems to be..."
"Is that?" Ci Hang turned his gaze, and the void rotated. He aimed at the ancient mirror that Xiao Chen was hiding in the cloth bag.
My heart was ups and downs: "That's true, so. It's really a big deal."
