Time flows forward forever, not stopping for anyone or anything.
Sixty years seems to be just a blink of an eye.
But it is enough for a young child to go through a long period of youth, youth, middle age, and old age, with children and grandchildren in groups, but the promotion of the new law has not yet spread throughout Daqing.
In the years of Jiazi, the world seems to have undergone tremendous changes, but it seems that there has not been any change. The places where the new law has been introduced have already adapted after sixty years. The places where the new law has not yet been introduced have not felt much change.
Only in the place where the new law replaces the old law can the great changes be felt.
Qingdu City.
Before dawn, before the sun rises, it is the darkest time of the day.
Directly north of Qingdu City, where the Tianyi Sect was originally the helmsman, now in the middle of the Tai Chi Dojo, there is a 'Fengshen Platform' that covers an area of several miles and is nearly a thousand feet high.
Huhu~~~
Facing the morning wind, frost and dew, An Qisheng was slowly pumping his fists.
When he was in Xuanxing, he practiced boxing every day, almost without stopping. After being in the floating world for a long time, he had not practiced boxing for a long time, but in this period of time in the Huangtian world, he picked up boxing again.
Not only boxing, he also started to dabble in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
No one has only cultivation in his life, even if he is born with the seeds of cultivation in some legends, he once advocated asceticism, but now he pays attention to nature.
Wherever you feel like it, whether it's boxing or practicing calligraphy, you can do it with your heart.
Phew~
He took his stance unhurriedly, moving one move after another, and there was no trace of power in each punch or kick.
It seems to be even weaker than those old ladies on Xuanxing who like to do Tai Chi in the park, but if a Taoist master looks at it from a distance, he can spot it.
When An Qisheng was punching, his body was connected with the heaven and earth. Every time he punched and kicked, he relaxed and tightened, as if the heaven and earth were breathing through him.
It seemed that, following his posture, the stars in the sky were flickering in and out.
Beneath the calm appearance, there seems to be an indescribable power of terror.
In fact, sixty years ago, the places where his Qi seeds could reach were only within the Nine Provinces of Liang Dan. But now, after Jiazi, the city god of the world has returned to his heart, and the places where he has spread have already covered more than 70% of Daqing's territory.
There are over a hundred large states and over four hundred small states, encompassing the mountains and rivers within them.
At a certain moment, An Qisheng raised his eyes and looked into the endless night. From an infinite distance, there seemed to be firelights bursting out and projecting into the depths of the earth.
It was a meteor shower that covered the sky and the earth. It was so large that it was rare to see it in thousands of years.
And as the endless fire rain streaked across the night, an indescribable aura flashed between heaven and earth.
Phew~
An Qisheng slowly retreated, and mountains and rivers seemed to flash through the depths of his eyes:
"It's only been a few years, and you've already discovered it..."
One year is naturally a long time for ordinary people, but for ascetics, it is no longer such a huge number. For a world with a life span of one million or even ten million.
It's even less worth mentioning.
He discovered something was wrong so quickly. One can imagine how strict He monitors this world.
The five Conferred God Platforms he envisioned have become just one of them at this time. Although Liansheng Lao Dao has arrived in the Eastern Continent, the construction of the Conferred God Platform cannot be accomplished overnight.
This meteor shower is directed at me!
An Qisheng knew this very well. In fact, if his Qi seeds were not scattered among the mountains, it might not be meteors and fire raining down in the sky at this time, but rolling thunderclouds burying the city of Kyoto.
However, he was curious about how 'He' would deal with him.
With his current level of cultivation, natural disasters in the ordinary sense of nature, whether landslides, super volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, meteorites, or even planetary impacts, cannot destroy him.
Unless there are cosmic natural disasters such as supernova explosions, star destruction, solar storms, and galactic chaos that can destroy this land together.
Otherwise, even if there is one person alive in this world, it must be him!
Hold the earth against the sky!
This is where An Qisheng's confidence lies.
And once the five God-conferring Platforms are completed, perhaps it will be time to change the offensive and defensive positions...
Then, this meteor shower is the prelude to his 'heavenly punishment'.
An Qisheng stood on the high platform with his hands behind his hands, his eyes dim:
"How do you want to deal with me?"
An Qisheng didn't know how many trump cards Huang Tian had, but it must be more than he imagined.
The ninth level of heavenly punishment, the thunder catastrophe, the demons and ghosts in the world, the emperor and heaven being extremely cruel, and even the practitioners in the world are all very likely to be his back-up force.
Therefore, even at this time, he could only resort to tricks.
However, he was not afraid, and there was some expectation in his heart.
"Amitabha."
A golden light broke through the night, and Ruyi Monk came through the air and landed on the Conferring God Platform.
The soul's upper body Tianxin can already vaguely perceive many things. In fact, if the Lord of Netherworld Mansion hadn't disturbed the secret of heaven, he could understand a lot just by counting with his fingers.
This meteor shower is just ordinary for most people.
But for real people above the soul, it's different.
"This shower of meteors and fire comes from something strange..."
Looking at An Qisheng, who was standing with his hands behind his back, the great monk looked slightly solemn. This Taoist had become stronger.
Inexplicably, Ruyi Monk felt a little depressed.
In the past sixty years, this Taoist had come to him more than once to discuss mysteries and Taoism, from discussions on martial arts and supernatural powers to general trends in the world, from ancient and modern changes to future evolution. Therefore, he could very clearly detect the changes in An Qisheng.
In his life, he had never seen anyone make such terrifying progress.
Sixty years ago, he was unwilling to take action, but thought that he still had the strength to fight. But at this time, he suddenly discovered that even if he stood with his back turned, he had lost the idea of taking action.
In other words, it is courage.
Watching his strength jump again and again, the impact he brought with him was far greater than losing a real fight.
"There are so many stars in the sky, it doesn't matter if a few fall."
An Qisheng stood with his back to Ruyi Monk and spoke calmly.
"The sea of stars is boundless. Although the soul can cross it with the form of Dharma, it doesn't know its depth. Fellow Taoists seem to know a lot..."
Ruyi Monk seemed to ask curiously.
In fact, he wanted to know the origin of An Qisheng through insinuations.
The starry sky is vast. From ancient times to the present, it is not that no one wants to explore the starry sky, but they have only gained very little.
Many souls have traveled across the starry sky, but until they returned at the end of their lives, they found nothing.
Under the boundless starry sky, it seems that this world is the only one.
But those who know the secrets in the starry sky all have a long heritage, or are... the reincarnation of ancient monsters in the world.
"The great monk still wants to get to the bottom of it."
An Qisheng smiled, naturally knowing what Ruyi Seng was thinking.
There are many people in the world who have doubts about his origins, because he came out of nowhere and rose too fast. If it had taken more than a hundred years to lay the groundwork, there might not be such doubts.
But of course he wouldn't care.
"You can't hide it from a real person."
Ruyi monk smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"There are no dragons and snakes with no origin in the world, let alone dragons like the real person. I am really curious. I wonder if the real person can solve the puzzle?"
"It's not good to be too curious."
An Qisheng turned around, glanced at the great monk, and asked curiously:
"I heard that there are two supreme classics, Tathagata and Prajna, in the Tathagata Temple. When combined into one, one can achieve enlightenment. I wonder if the great monk might share something with me?"
"Amitabha, the young monk made a mistake."
Ruyi monk clasped his hands together and said no more.
The Great Sun Tathagata Sutra and the Prajna Sutra are perfect classics that have been passed down for thousands of generations in the Tathagata Academy. It is said that when combined, they can become the 'Tao', so he will naturally not reveal it.
Of course, he didn't know that An Qisheng had obtained all the classic mysteries of Tathagata Academy.
Talking about Tao again and again in the past sixty years is more than just talking about Tao.
An Qisheng smiled lightly and said casually:
"I heard that Prajna is the mother of all Buddhas. How come the Tathagata is fully enlightened and can directly ascend to heaven? I don't know whether it is true or false?"
"In the thousands of years of the Tathagata Temple, no one has ever combined the Tathagata and Prajna into one body, transformed into an immortal, and ascended to heaven. This is just a rumor and cannot be believed to be true."
Ruyi monk seemed to be very humble and did not dare to exaggerate at all, for fear that the Taoist in front of him would mention the exchange of scriptures again.
"Your Tathagata Temple has such a long heritage, it's just not as good as mine and Lord Netherworld Mansion. This is not a crime of war, but why can even God's will suppress you?"
An Qisheng sighed, seeming a little regretful:
"The more we argue, the clearer the truth becomes. However, it will be difficult to make progress if we are too self-conscious."
The heaven and earth are vast and the universe is endless. Even if it is a soul, it is difficult to travel all over the country, let alone the vast starry sky. So, we must pursue ascension?
This made him feel more and more that the path of Huangtian Realm was going astray.
Perhaps there was one or a few geniuses in ancient times who succeeded by luck and led all the practitioners of the following generations astray...
It's not impossible.
"Preach the scriptures but not the Dharma. This is the teaching of our ancestors. We dare not violate it."
Ruyi monk shook his head slightly.
In the past sixty years, although the Tai Chi Tao established by An Qisheng has not spread widely, the beginning of the Tai Chi Induction Chapter has been published all over the world, causing an uproar in the practice world.
The collision between ascetics and Tai Chi in recent years is certainly due to the implementation of new methods, but this is the main reason.
"That's fine."
An Qisheng stopped talking about this matter, turned around and said again:
"Then, I wonder if Master has thought of another way?
The path of Lord Netherworld! "
"Um?"
Ruyi Monk suddenly raised his head, and there seemed to be a flash of divine light in his eyes: "What the real person said, but the Lord of the Netherworld opened a path above the Yuanshen?"
Above the Yuan Shen, there is not only one way to become a person.
Lord Netherworld has opened up a second path!
This point has been recorded in many sects that have been passed down for a long time. However, before the Lord of Nether Palace spread this path to the world, Netherworld had lost contact with it.
Countless people have searched for it, but found nothing.
According to legend, hundreds of years ago, Taoist Tianyi peered into the underworld, trying to find that way, but...
"Amitabha."
Monk Ruyi recited a Buddha's name softly and said with a wry smile:
"It seems that the real person has something to ask me to do..."
"good!"
An Qisheng tapped his foot on the God Conferment Platform, and the loud buzzing sound could not cover up his calm voice:
"What I want is for the master to go 827,600 miles to the west and build a god-conferring platform!"
