Overnight?
Wang Qiyi couldn't help but wonder, "Before the spiritual energy completely dissipates, can humans and gods really communicate?"
"Of course." Qingfeng nodded firmly, looked at him with bright eyes and said, "Now some of the monks who are taking elixirs to resume their practice are also able to communicate with the gods. Moreover, as far as I know, there are unconfirmed rumors—— At that time, the connection between the human and the gods was suddenly lost overnight. It was like the connection signal with the gods was cut off after the spiritual energy was cut off. "
Seeing his eyes widening in surprise, Qingfeng smiled and said: "Of course, due to the special nature of swallowing pills nowadays, the so-called links established by some people may not be gods, which is also one of the most fundamental reasons for losing control. If you can't control your thoughts, the hallucinations you see and the auditory hallucinations in your ears are very dangerous. You must remember this. When you swallow the pill in the future, don't be curious and try to see clearly the hallucinations or hear the content of the auditory hallucinations clearly. .”
Being highly curious has its pros and cons. The good thing is that you have enough motivation to practice and explore the unknown; the bad thing is that you want to try to figure out the whole story, and it is easy to attract the attention of evil things.
"It can't be the whisper of the ancient gods in the mist, right?" Wang Qiyi thought of the Cthulhu novels he had read in his previous life.
But in such a peaceful night, I really can't think of any terrible plot. All that flashed in my mind were pranks, such as the ancient god said in his ears: steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, roast duck, roast chicken, stewed goose, spicy short ribs. lobster……
Unexpectedly, Qingfeng said with a solemn face after hearing this: "It is indeed a very ethereal whispering sound. You must remember not to be curious and try to hear it clearly, otherwise the consequences will be terrible if it attracts evil things!"
"Okay, I remember!"
After a brief interlude, he continued to explain: "It is said that the chaos among the monks lasted for a long time. At the beginning, they could not establish a connection with the gods, and everyone kept trying with hope. But as time went by, , after receiving no favor from the gods, many people’s faith collapsed, and they believed that the gods had finally abandoned the human world and abandoned believers.”
"The era of chaos followed, and all sects, including Taoism, experienced varying degrees of turmoil. The most fundamental reason is faith. Regardless of whether monks are cultivating this life or the next life, they all have a common value - cause and effect. There is a cycle of bad retribution. Everyone firmly believes that only by doing good deeds can you get good results. Otherwise, you will go to hell and be punished by the gods."
"But if the gods give up on believers, will karma still exist? Once people who were once restricted by strict rules and regulations suddenly can't find any trace of the existence of faith, the backlash will be worse than ordinary people. In the chaotic era, there were countless casualties, and many decent monks were lost there. During these dark times.”
"Later on, divine revelations appeared intermittently. When I heard the news, I was as shocked as you." Qingfeng looked at the astonished Wang Qiyi with a smile on his face, as if he was seeing his curious self in his youth, "It is said that many people prayed devoutly. Many monks have received divine enlightenment, but not while meditating, but in dreams."
"The divine revelation in the dream only lasted less than three months. People from various sects have varying degrees of divine revelation, but there are only a few who can record the complete recipe. There are rumors that since the divine revelation was concentrated After an outbreak, occasionally someone will encounter divine enlightenment again by chance."
"Think about it. You wake up from a dream and copy down the prescriptions that you can remember. You collect the materials and refine them into elixirs. After swallowing them, you can practice again. How can you explain such a bizarre and real thing?"
Wang Qiyi was stunned when he heard this, "I dreamed of writing a prescription for elixirs. Does anyone really dare to try it? What if... what if the evil god seduced me into corruption?"
Qingfeng nodded, "So you can understand the thoughts of the conservatives in Xuanmen, the old-timers? They believe that actively degenerating just to seek power is the purpose of the evil god - to make the spiritual beings of all things inhuman. If ghosts are no longer ghosts, thus completely destroying human relations, it will never be possible for heaven to make up for it.”
If you put it this way, people’s worries are quite reasonable!
All the gods lost contact overnight, and the so-called path to spiritual practice was spread through dreams. And so far, there may not be anyone who has successfully cultivated from a human to a god. Who can guarantee that that thing is orthodox?
What if you cultivate into the Ke type...
Thinking of this, Wang Qiyi felt a little worried about practicing.
Reliable or not? But it’s dangerous and hard. After practicing hard for many years, I finally found out that I went astray. Who can I ask to explain?
"Humanity's desire for extraordinary abilities is far greater than the fear of death." Qingfeng looked up at the full moon that had jumped over the treetops, and sighed: "But it is also because of those seniors who have taken risks and tried , the efficacy of the elixir has been gradually tested, providing us with rich experience and giving us the opportunity to go further on the road of spiritual practice."
It is a new path that generations of people have accumulated and carved out with their lives.
If there were no righteous monks involved, and all the bad guys who were greedy and did not believe in the cycle of cause and effect had powerful power, I am afraid that the world would have been riddled with holes and would be like the end of the world.
"Captain, you are all great monks." Wang Qiyi admired sincerely.
To be fair, I want to practice out of selfishness and want to find a way home; but these monks who know that their future is bleak but still decide to join them do so out of selfless love for all things in the world and their fellow humans.
Even if they borrow the power from the evil god, they use it to fight against evil. The monks who cannot bear the inner demons devouring them and degenerating into monsters are pitiful, hateful and tragic at the same time.
"It took a long time tonight, and you spent a lot of energy in the fantasy world. Let's take a day off tomorrow before going to the company." When closing the mountain door, Qingfeng reminded: "That Yuma likes to stay on you, It shouldn’t leave for a while, you can try to establish communication with it, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise.”
After saying good night to each other, Wang Qiyi returned to his true form and huddled lazily in the turtle's shell. He rubbed Yu Yan's right paw that had penetrated into it and silently thanked him in his heart.
When he was woken up by the noise, he opened his eyes and found that it was already three o'clock in the morning.
[Another night of listening to profound Taoist teachings but with no results. Merit and experience increased by 1%, gaining independent control +2]
"Hey? Why are you listening to the profound Taoism again?" Wang Qiyi ignored the different voices of men, women, old and young making wishes, kicked his legs and looked around as if he was doing morning exercises, feeling very puzzled.
Yunshan Temple was very quiet last night. Where did the Taoist priests come from to chant sutras?
Ever since I traveled through time and became a bastard, the +1 I was given every morning said that I listened to Taoism. Isn’t this lying with open eyes?
And it has returned to independent control, not to mention continuing to add points to thinking assimilation...
"Hey? What is this?!" Wang Qiyi was complaining in his heart, and suddenly realized that something was wrong with him!
