The cave was filled with strong fear, including fear of the unknown, fear of fighting, fear of separation, fear of death... all kinds of wonderful feelings came one after another.
With Cheng Ling's will, these fears can be dispelled in an instant, but this line of work is not about resistance, but requires acceptance and integration, so as to break through to the extreme of the seven emotions.
How to do it?
For a moment, he was lost in thought, thinking about it, and suddenly a flash of spiritual light flashed through his tongue. With his understanding of the sword technique, he entered the Tao with the sword and completely suppressed the five senses.
In this case, can the extremes of the seven emotions be understood with the help of swordsmanship, just like the five flavors?
He sat down cross-legged, his body and mind gradually relaxed. In his mind, he imagined that he was a long sword, standing on the top of the mountain, closing his eyes and meditating. The huge mountain wind made his purple clothes rustle, and his hair was extremely messy.
There is the sound of wind next to my ears, and there is a faint fragrance, which is the fragrance of flowers and plants. The Dragon Ling Sword was placed on his legs, and his consciousness gradually became immersed, as if there was nothing else in the world except the sword.
People have spirits, and swords also have sword spirits. Cheng Ling is trying to listen to the sound of the sword and feel the emotion of the sword.
The surroundings became quieter and quieter, and Cheng Ling's soul seemed to be fused with the Long Ling Sword.
In fact, he was the only one who dared to do this. A sword is a sharp weapon. Regardless of whether there is a sword spirit or not, its sharpness does not change. Touching the sharp edge of the pseudo-sacred sword with the body of the soul is simply an act of seeking death.
Fortunately, the Dragon Ling Sword was conceived from sword seeds and was warmed and nourished in the Dantian every day. It almost became a part of Cheng Ling's body and was connected by blood.
Gradually, he felt the fear of the sword! But his sword is fearless, so where does this fear come from?
As if layers of fog were lifted, an endless picture unfolded in front of his eyes. He couldn't see the front. He only saw long swords shattering one after another in the endless aura of destruction. He faintly felt that what he saw was The part we reached was the moment when the ancient swordsmanship civilization collapsed.
Countless sword cultivators died and long swords were broken, as if all of them would be annihilated and their former glory would never be restored. In an instant, the sword trembled slightly, and the fear of Long Ling Sword reached its limit.
But at this moment, Cheng Ling moved. The hand that grasped the hilt of the sword was extremely steady, and he stabbed out at the scene in front of him...
The long sword penetrates the entire picture, spreading from the center to the surroundings, splitting like a spider web. After a while, it turned into powder and disappeared completely.
Cheng Ling opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he had completely mastered the extreme fear.
Next, head to the second cave.
With the experience of comprehending the extreme of fear, the six emotions will become much easier in the future. He felt the joy of the sword, and was happy to have killed King Asura and defeated King Garuda.
I felt the anger of the sword again, angry that I couldn't defeat Jiang Haoyang; I felt the sorrow of the sword. Today's swordsmanship is so declining, and there are so few people who use swords. After the swordsmanship civilization suffered heavy losses, only people are left to admire it. of relics.
Continuing to feel it, traveling through the caves, this time I heard many sounds of swords, sounds of swords, and hearts of swords. He felt the love of the sword! The love of the sword is protection, endless protection, guarding the sword that needs to be protected, and the people that need to be protected.
I feel the evil of the sword. Hypocrites are evil, and true villains are evil. This is the evil of the sword. The sword likes upright people, and upright people are as unyielding as the sword itself.
Feeling the worry of the sword, in the age of great strife, surrounded by demons, with one's own power, can we expel the alien races and preserve the orthodoxy of Zhongyuan Continent?
From the seven emotions to now, I have felt the six emotions, except for the last emotion, which is desire. Why can’t I feel the desire of the sword? What is the desire of the sword?
In the last cave, Cheng Ling gently stroked the Long Ling sword, but could not find the desire for the sword. Finally, after summing up the other six emotions and seeing through all the illusory scenes, I found the desire for the sword.
The desire of the sword is to find a way to be stronger; the desire of the sword is to become stronger than anyone else; the desire of the sword is to resist the sky with one force, pierce the way of heaven, and control everything in one's own hands.
The soul seems to be sublimated and wandering in the void. Cheng Ling was quite calm. In this palace, he felt the joy of the sword, the anger of the sword, the sorrow of the sword, the fear of the sword, the love of the sword, the evil of the sword, and the desire of the sword. All the seven emotions of the sword were absorbed by him. As far as I know, he also created a sword technique of his own.
"This sword seems to have seven changes, but each sword can integrate one or more of the seven emotions. The changes are so complicated that it should be the crown of the six sword techniques above. The seventh move is the Nine Ultimate Sword. , just name it the Sword of Seven Emotions!"
Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction. Ever since he learned the sixth move of the Nine Jue Divine Sword, he had no new self-created moves for a long time. He knew that this was a bottleneck. Unless his knowledge of the sword was enriched, he would not be able to create any new moves. Maybe even further.
Fortunately, this trip entered the Green Lotus Realm, and in the thirty-six realms, he successively met King Asura, King Kinnara, King Gandharva, King Maharaja, King Garuda, King of Heaven, Bodhi Buddha, and Wan. Fo Zong and other powerful men fought continuously.
Not only did his swordsmanship become more rounded, but it also solidified the foundation of swordsmanship again. In addition, he realized the sword of five flavors in the land of six senses. Although it was not powerful enough, it provided an opportunity to face the land of seven emotions. Understand the Sword of Seven Emotions.
After calming down and preparing to try the power of the Seven Emotions Sword, a familiar repulsive force came from the cave. The next moment, it appeared outside the palace.
But this time, there were not many people outside the palace, only ten people including Di Shitian, Kongji, Huiyuan, Huineng, Lingxuzi, Tianwang, Dragon King, Garuda King, Qingya and Qingyi.
Seeing Cheng Ling appear, Emperor Shitian narrowed his eyes slightly. He was a little shocked. The Land of Seven Emotions tests the Buddha's heart. With his own ability, he would not have been able to come out so quickly without the help of the inheritance of Broken Leaf Buddha Kingdom.
Cheng Ling was born in a Taoist sect, so he was so proficient in Buddhist techniques?
Seeing his appearance, Qingya and Qingyi hurriedly came over and said, "Brother Cheng, you are so fast."
"Huh?" Cheng Ling glanced at them and asked, "Where are the others? Have you seen Brother Xie Feng and the Fox Queen?"
Qingya explained: "I haven't seen it yet, but don't worry, the main hall here is the palace of the seven emotions. As long as you uphold your true intention, even if you can't comprehend the extremes of the seven emotions, you won't be harmed. It will naturally be transmitted after a certain period of time." .”
Cheng Ling felt relieved now, looked at the two women carefully, and said happily: "It seems that your harvest is good, I'm afraid you have reached the peak of the fourth decline of heavenly beings."
Qing Ya said: "Well, I would like to thank Brother Cheng for your help. Although these five palaces appear very strange, they are of great help to the cultivation of Buddhism. The Six Consciousness and Seven Emotions Palaces have been passed. The following three palaces are probably the Eight Sufferings and Nine Sufferings." Ten calamities? If this is the case, the benefits for me and my junior sister will be even greater."
"According to this, the Buddhist monks will benefit more from the Green Lotus Void Realm after all." Cheng Ling asked.
"It is indeed true. Buddhism and Taoism are very different skills. Although the secret realms are similar, the benefits are different. Just like your Taoism's Mountains, Rivers and Country Map, the tests inside are difficult for Buddhist monks to complete."
Qingyi pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Brother Cheng, you are different. The sect leader has said before that you have profound Buddha nature. If you were not a man, I am afraid that you would be snatched away as your direct disciple. In addition, you have also seen the sword. Dian, his Buddhist cultivation level is similar to that of the monks from Broken Leaf Buddha Kingdom."
Cheng Ling was sweating. He naturally knew that what Qingyi was talking about was Master Xianhui, who had dangerous secret ways. If she hadn't been a man, she would have almost entered the nunnery.
The three of them talked while the time passed slowly. More and more monks were teleported out of the palace. After three days, almost everyone was teleported out.
Kong Ji glanced at Cheng Ling and said, "Master Cheng, let's continue entering the third palace!"
Cheng Ling was about to take action when the Fox Queen interrupted: "Kong Ji, are you sure Huixuan is locked up in these five palaces? Don't try to trick me!"
After returning from two consecutive palaces without success, the Fox Queen gradually lost her patience.
Kong Ji said calmly: "That's the truth. If the Demon Emperor doesn't believe it, he shouldn't go in."
The Fox Queen glared at him bitterly, but she had no choice but to reach the bottom of the Qinglian Void Realm. Apart from the remaining three palaces, there was no place where Huixuan could be imprisoned.
Cheng Ling said no more and started to break the barrier of the third palace. Reading books
The scene changed again, and the world in front of me was very familiar. The sky was blue, the grass was green on the ground, the mountains stretched endlessly, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going on the road.
On both sides of the road, golden wheat waves danced in the wind, revealing hard-working figures.
The consciousness is very weak, with almost no cultivation, and it does not exist in a human body. It is just a point of light. There is no trace of immortal energy in the air, and even the spiritual energy is pitifully thin.
But Cheng Ling was not worried. This was how he spent his whole life...
The eight sufferings of life refer to the eight sufferings of birth, old age, illness, death, resentment, separation from love, failure to seek, and the rise and fall of the five yins. These sufferings are the inevitable realities of life. Since you want to feel these sufferings, the most direct way is to become an ordinary mortal.
After a long time, as if being pulled by some kind of thought, the light spot of Cheng Ling's incarnation began to move. It passed through the golden waves of wheat, passed through the lush forest, climbed over the mountains, and waded through the river. After arriving at a small village, he suddenly fell into In a thatched house.
The next moment, the cry of "wow" sounded, and the baby was born...
The pain of birth...many people no longer remember it. In fact, it goes without saying that the pain of ten months of fetal imprisonment is when a baby weighing six or eight pounds passes through the narrow birth gate. The pain is beyond words.
After being separated from the mother's body, the baby is stimulated by the hot or cold air from the outside and is grabbed and lifted by the midwife's huge palms. This is particularly painful for the baby's delicate skin, which is worse than whipping the body.
The suffering of old age...aging is something that no one can avoid. Even if you are extremely talented or have good health care skills, by the age of seventy or eighty, you will have blurred vision, gray hair, and shaky teeth. After decades of hard work in your life, your physiological functions will decline, and you will eventually become senile and senile.
The pain of illness... As we grow older from birth, we become inextricably linked to illness. The pain of youth, the fatigue of middle age, the decay of old age, the imbalance of cold and heat, and the pain of lying on the bed and taking medicine day and night. How can this kind of pain be indescribable?
The pain of death... How many years can a human being of flesh and blood survive? All phenomena in the universe come into being, exist and disappear, and they begin again and again. There is life and there is death, there is success and there is failure, this is the case for Farr, is there any exception? Therefore, the Buddhist scriptures say that if you do not think about heaven, you will live eighty-four thousand great kalpas, but you will still fall in the end and will not be able to escape from the six paths of reincarnation.
