"The way of the saint..."
Huang Shang was slightly shocked when he heard Donghuang Taiyi's words.
Regarding the way of saints, there are almost no detailed records in either Taoist canons or various classics. We only know that the way of saints is also known as Hunyuan Dao, which refers to the supreme way of Hunyuan Ruyi. We can specify the abilities and characteristics of saints. But he didn't mention a word.
However, Huang Shang had previously received a revelation from the leader of Tongtian Cult, "Look at the mountains or the mountains, and the water or the water." But he still has no clue what the mystery behind this sentence is.
But now Donghuang Taiyi told him that gathering the Three Books of Heaven, Earth and Man is the only way for the acquired Holy Spirit to attain the Great Way of Hunyuan, that is, the Way of Saints?
Why is this?
"Don't ask me why. You are not in a state of mind now. Even if I tell you, you won't understand. It will only increase your troubles."
As if he knew what Huang Shang was wondering about, the next moment Donghuang Taiyi's voice sounded in his mind again: "I know you are very ambitious. You think you are extremely talented, blessed with good luck, and can do anything. But assembling and integrating the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man is far more difficult than you think, and the process will inevitably be accompanied by disasters, which not only refer to heavenly disasters, but also to human disasters."
"Even if you have the Book of Heaven in your hand now, and the Book of Man is almost half, but not to mention the Egyptian gods and Hades who have to face the Book of Man, just getting the Book of Earth is almost impossible. Mission accomplished.”
Having said this, Donghuang Taiyi paused slightly, and then continued: "The Earth Book is regarded by Hunyuanzi, the ancestor of the Earth Immortal, as the lifeblood of the ginseng fruit tree. How could he hand over this book to you so easily? ?”
"The ancestor of the Earth Immortal, Zhen Yuanzi!"
Huang Shang's eyes narrowed slightly. Donghuang Taiyi was right. He was indeed very ambitious. He wanted to collect the three books of heaven, earth and man, prove the avenue of Hunyuan, and become one of the strongest people in heaven and earth. But now that he thinks about it, things seem to be It was more troublesome than he thought.
It's just that although this Zhen Yuanzi is known as the ancestor of the earthly immortals, he also had an amazing performance in "Journey to the West". He even easily captured Sun Wukong and others with the magical power of "The Universe in His Sleeves". His strength is definitely not weak, but now Tingdong Huang Taiyi's tone, Zhen Yuanzi seems to be more powerful and special than what is recorded in Journey to the West?
But for such a person, there is no detailed record in Dao Zang?
Is it because they didn’t record it, or because they didn’t dare to record it?
However, if you think carefully about the records in Journey to the West, it seems that this town of Yuanzi is indeed very extraordinary.
Not to mention the strength he showed, just look at a few details recorded in Journey to the West.
His disciple once said: "Sanqing is my master's friend, Si Di is my master's old friend, Jiu Yao is my master's junior, and Yuan Chen is my master's guest."
In addition, in Zhen Yuanzi's main hall, there are only two big characters "Heaven and Earth" for worshiping incense. For this reason, his disciples also said: "These two characters are worthy of the gift from above; those below can't stand our incense." .”
When Tang Monk and his party were passing by, Zhen Yuanzi happened to be invited by Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun to go to Tianmiluo Palace in Shangqing to listen to the "Hunyuan Dao Fruit".
All of this proves that Zhen Yuanzi can even be friends with the Sanqing Taoist ancestors. Even if his disciples brag a little, this has proved how transcendent Zhen Yuanzi's status is.
In addition, there is also a passage said by Zhen Yuanzi himself, introducing his previous life with Tang Monk, that is, his friendship with Jin Chanzi: "That monk was the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of the Western Saint Tathagata. Five hundred years ago, he and I met at the Bon Festival. He personally served tea, and Buddhist disciples respected me, so we are old friends."
In other words, not only Sanqing asked him to respect him, but also the Western Tathagata. He even called the other party Lao Tathagata. His words were not too respectful. It was just like talking about this old guy in a chat. Same thing, plus Jin Chanzi personally served him tea and water, this identity was by no means simple!
Of course, being able to possess two treasures, the ginseng fruit tree and the book from the ground, without losing it, and even others not even daring to covet them, also proves Zhen Yuanzi’s strength and magical powers!
"This guy Zhen Yuanzi..."
Mentioning Zhen Yuanzi, Donghuang Taiyi's tone was slightly complicated, saying: "He is an anomaly between heaven and earth, the only living being conceived in the fetal membrane of heaven and earth. He was born with perfect hunyuan, but just missed a little chance. Therefore, he has not proven the Hunyuan Avenue, but he already has some of the characteristics of the Hunyuan Avenue. He is known as "the same king as the world". Even if he does not count the book, his strength and realm can be called the first person under the Hunyuan. .”
"Furthermore, he is a good teacher. He has taught a large number of divine passages to all kinds of innate beings, and has trained a large number of ancient powerful men. The same is true for those 'earth immortals' who listen to instructions but do not listen to propaganda. They are powerful but do not enter the heaven." They all regard him as their ancestor, so they call him the ancestor of the earthly immortals."
"This guy's strength, realm, and connections are all top-notch. He just doesn't like to get involved in worldly affairs, but even Sanqing must respect him."
Having said this, Donghuang Taiyi smiled faintly and said: "To seize the Book of Earth from this guy's hand, the difficulty is no different than going to Olympus to cut down a trunk of the Tree of Destiny."
"..."
Huang Shang fell into silence after hearing Donghuang Taiyi's words.
He knew that Zhen Yuanzi was very strong, but he didn't expect that this guy was the number one person under Hunyuan. His strength was even higher than that of Xitian Tathagata, and he was a first-class hidden boss.
With his current strength, trying to seize the book from such a big boss is tantamount to seeking death. Even if he is a Taoist, Sanqing may not be able to protect him.
Thinking of this, Huang Shang took a deep breath and slowly clenched his fists.
Judging from the current situation, it is impossible to obtain the Book of the Earth, collect the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man, and prove the Hunyuan Dao, but nothing is impossible in the end of the world, and it does not mean that he cannot do it now. It won’t be possible in the future.
No matter what, he must find a way to get the book from the ground in the future!
boom!
While Donghuang Taiyi was communicating with Huang Shang, the phantom of Emperor Fengdu gradually condensed into shape, turning into a man wearing black and red imperial clothes and a royal crown on his head. He was huge and powerful, but his face was a bit... The blurry man condensed at a speed that was even faster than that of the demonic figure!
"Release the devil, disturb the underworld, and destabilize the three realms. This crime cannot be forgiven!"
"I will punish him!"
As the shadow of Emperor Fengdu condensed, a cold drink that seemed to be made up of multiple voices, with strong echoes and powerful power also sounded from Emperor Fengdu, shaking the world!
boom!
boom!
boom!
And with the roar of Emperor Fengdu, thunderbolts containing terrifying Yin Qi and the power of death also appeared out of thin air, turning into a shocking thunderstorm that instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.
Under the shroud of the thunderstorm, many powerful demons present, including Anubis, Hypnos and Hermes, were shrouded in it, and then they were severely bombarded by the endless thunder, making a shocking roar. !
