366 Useless Use

It is difficult for monks to start over. Although there are masters of saints, they themselves have clearly realized that the new era and a new trend has arrived. The right time and place are not on their side. There is no guarantee whether they can become immortals, and even the masters of saints are not very sure.

Therefore, he feared that Liu Sun would not ignore the dissuasion of Taoist Lingbao and resolutely threw himself into the arms of Western religion.

Although the Taoist Lingbao still insisted, he did not have enough confidence. Especially when seeing Yun Yao, a cultivator with luck, he could gain cultivation and merits by doing anything. There was obviously a new protagonist in the new era. In the Battle of the Gods, the three flowers were eliminated and the old antiques in the heart of the five qi were destroyed.

Fearing Liusun and others turned to the West because they could not see hope. In the West, they still have the opportunity to be a Buddha in the vast world, staying in the Central Plains and becoming an immortal, so they can only watch themselves being eliminated. It is really hard for the monk who was once an immortal.

Even Yun Yao, who is an outsider, can feel their deep helplessness. It is precisely because of this that he admires the Lingbao Taoist who can continue to persevere.

Confucius seemed not to find that he was missing a few disciples. After all, he had too many disciples. Although Yu Liusun and the others followed him for a long time, they had never entered the core of the seventy-two disciples. Just leave.

"Sister, hungry." Sha Gu immediately asked for food when she saw Yunyao. Her belly was really unsatisfied.

Yunyao took out a sesame cake for her, and Sha Gu immediately calmed down.

"Are you really going to give her the Qiji Lin Longxin?" Taoist Qingxu saw Yunyao grab the magic weapon from the Western monk, but he didn't understand why Yunyao gave the magic weapon to Sha Gu: "Although Sha Gu is pitiful, I think she has no immortal fate. It's already lucky to be able to take it in. Why do you want to help her ascension?"

Of course, it is because Yun Yao doesn't care about the seven-orbital heart. She has annual rings. As long as she can analyze the energy of the seven-orbital heart, she can copy it in minutes. So what is important for Yun Yao is not the magic weapon itself, but a trace of heavenly way represented by the magic weapon.

"My master has long taught me that seeking Tao is not about everything. Tao is born with one, two, two, three, and all things are born with all things. Tao has evolved into thousands of magic weapons. Immortals are also obsessed with using magic weapons to suppress their own luck, but magic weapons are not the way of heaven. If you are attached to magic weapons, you will not be able to see the way of heaven in the end." Yun Yao did not tell the other party that he had the year ring, but just said that what he was seeking was the way of heaven, not the way of heaven itself.

"But if you don't comprehend the magic weapon, how can you understand the Tao in the magic weapon? If you give the magic weapon to others, will you not be able to comprehend it?" Taoist Qingxu couldn't help asking. The magic weapon can only be helpful in his own hands. He has never heard of the magic weapon in his hands that can help him practice, otherwise why would the immortals not kill people and seize treasures?

Yun Yao couldn't explain that she could master the secret of other people's magic weapons through practice, theory, and practice. She could only say: "If the magic weapon can really protect the monks from death, then the Sanxiao Empress who put the Nine-Curve Yellow River Formation will not be killed by me and the saints of the Chan Sect. The so-called magic weapon can protect herself is just an illusion of the monks. If the will of heaven really wants to kill people, then no magic weapon is useless. So I think the monks are wrong. Instead of relying on magic weapons, it is better to follow the will of heaven." Yun Yao said a big truth with a small mouth Balabala. Of course, this is all her own nonsense, without any basis or evidence.

But Taoist Qingxu did not refute, but nodded in agreement with great concern. As one of the victims of the War of Conquest of Gods, he had a deep understanding. "In the War of Conquest of Conquest of Gods, the immortals would not have come out of the mountain to trek through muddy waters, but in the end the magic weapon did not save us. The disciples of the Jie Cult have suffered heavy casualties and were all lost in the cultivation of the disciples of the Shan Sect. If there were no magic weapon, we would definitely have concerns, but we would not dare to come out of the mountain and save ourselves." From this perspective, it was because the immortals were too confident in their magic weapon, which led to their own death. If they could also look down on the magic weapon with Yunyao and follow the heavens, they would not be on the list.

"What I said is very true." Master Qingxu couldn't help but nodded in agreement with what Yun Yao said. Because it really made sense, he continued: "In the past, immortals died for the magic weapon. The magic weapon was originally aided in the cultivation, but in the end it became the reason for the death. It was sad and lamentable. If they all gave up all things and sought the way of heaven like you, they would not die."

Yun Yao's view is a bit like Zhuangzi's "useless use". Zhuangzi advocates "useless". Although magic weapons are good, they are not as good as magic weapons.

If you only see the good ones of magic weapons, but don’t see the good ones of magic weapons, you will fall into death.

Taoist Qingxu used to only know that "owning magic weapons" had many benefits, but he never thought that "no magic weapons" would be beneficial.

Useful is a way, and useless is also a way.

Zhuangzi is a 'useless use'. In the eyes of everyone, special effects can be found in Zhuangzi. For example, an ugly tree has its branches that are curved and cannot be made into a timber, so no one would think of cutting it to obtain wood. So the big tree lived for hundreds of years and became a spirit.

In the eyes of others, big trees that are unsuccessful are useless, but for big trees themselves, living is useful.

Another time someone asked Zhuangzi, what's the use of your remarks?

Zhuangzi answered 'useless', but he asked back: "What's the use of the foothold under your feet without the support of large areas of land around you?" It means that everything has a 'useless' side, and the reason why it is useful is because of the comprehensive environment.

Zhuangzi's remarks may be useless in the eyes of others, but the "useless use" will not disappear. Uselessness is also a kind of use and will not change because of anyone's subjectiveness.

Taoist Qingxu understood this truth through a fool of Yun Yao, and suddenly felt that his state of mind was unprecedentedly calm, as if he would never cause any trouble for anything again. The world in his eyes was immediately full of meaning, because uselessness was also a kind of usefulness, and his state of mind was even higher than when he was a golden immortal.

"The Master said that there must be my teacher when three people walk, and I will never deceive me." Taoist Qingxu bowed to Yunyao and expressed his gratitude.

Yunyao was very helpless, why did he understand it too? It was obvious that the truth was told from his own mouth, but others always understood it first, which was too annoying.

Yunyao was crying without tears. Apart from envy, she didn't know how to express her depressed mood now. So she could only ask Yan with shameless face and replied: "I don't know if you can discuss the argument with me, so that I can also understand what you have realized?"

"sure."

Yun Yao's fooling me just now is also practice. Taoist Qingxu extracted theories from practice, and now practiced them again through the discussion of Tao. If Yun Yao can also extract the theories, she can also improve her cultivation.

"I just realized the useless use of 'no magic weapon'..." Taoist Qingxu talked freely, talking about his own feelings: "All actions in the three realms are useless, all usefulness is useless, the way of heaven is invisible, changes are tangible, and usefulness is unpredictable." Yan Hui's body has already achieved, and he can ascend to the sky at any time.

All actions are useless, and all useful things are useless?

Relatively useful and absolutely useless. Usefulness is relative, useless but absolute. Nothing can be useful to everyone, and there will always be people who think this thing is useless.
