Knocking on the door of heaven is the first step on the path of spiritual practice. It is the first concentrated explosion of physical energy, blood and soul thoughts.
It can be said to be a great summary and assessment of all previous practice preparations!
It is like the "college entrance examination" in the previous life. Starting from the first word in kindergarten, all subsequent studies and efforts will eventually converge in front of the single-plank bridge of the college entrance examination.
In a sense, knocking Tianmen is more "harsh" than the college entrance examination in the previous life. It is in the true sense...one test determines life!
After all, all practitioners only have one chance to open the Heavenly Gate, and the size of the Heavenly Gate will be completely determined in the future.
Therefore, any force with some foundation will basically use all means to help future generations lay a solid foundation.
Even the most powerful princes, nobles and the proud sons of heaven will not knock on the gate of heaven too early.
After being fully prepared, we will also invite capable and experienced seniors to help support us.
However, it is very rare for a "wild child" like Yu Youquan, who started out late, is relatively young, has no guardians, and relies purely on personal efforts.
but.
Whether it's body or soul, Yu Youquan's background is far beyond what ordinary people from aristocratic families can match.
I bathed in dragon blood, ate special honey, was watered by Yaochen Flower Star Mist, and awakened my spiritual consciousness. Even the secret book in hand was the Nine Mystic Sect Secret Code...
All of these have created his unparalleled foundation!
What's more, he also owns the Dragon Pearl Cave and has been blessed by the Dao Mark of the "Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing Qi"!
Living in the Longzhu Cave with the Dao Mark open, Yu Youquan unexpectedly discovered that the way he knocked on the Tianmen was somewhat different from what he imagined.
His thinking is indescribably active, but it is not excited, but active, calm, rational, and wise in a bizarre super-sensory state.
He seemed to have suddenly gained a higher level of...wisdom, and everything was under his control!
Moreover, he did not directly go to knock on the Tianmen, but was in a strange state that was absolutely conducive to practicing the "Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing Qi".
No one told him, but Yu Youquan knew it, as if he was blessed in his soul.
Very strange, very magical, very mysterious!
Then, Yu Youquan followed the guidance of his soul and began to practice the "Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing Qi" method.
This is a high-level fundamental method that can only be practiced by the inner sect of the Jiuxuan Sect and even the true disciples. It is a complete set of practice concepts that runs through the entire practice of the Tianmen realm.
Yu Youquan has been studying it all these days and has a deep understanding of its meaning.
But under the blessing of this strange state, Yu Youquan was surprised to find that many of his previous understandings were either biased or simply went astray.
Even if you truly understand the deepest parts, you will gain new inspiration and gain a deeper understanding.
You must know that the set of manuscripts he studied had annotations from several great people, including even that Qilin.
But now these experts' comments, under the blessing of Dao Hen's artistic conception, are beginning to pale in comparison.
Yu Youquan's eyes were bright, and he was completely immersed in the mystery of "enlightenment", gaining new understanding every moment.
It's not that these experts' annotations are problematic, but that language, words and pictures are actually very limited in what they can express.
"It can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words", "The wheel is flat and the wheel is flattened", "It is not difficult for those who do not know how to do it", all say similar truths!
time flies.
Yu Youquan, who was always in the highest level of meditation, seemed to have slowly forgotten everything.
I have forgotten the scripture "The Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing the Qi", the most precious picture of swallowing the moon in the hand-written secret book, and even all the notes left by many masters, and even the matter of knocking on the Heavenly Gate and embarking on the path of spiritual practice. The thing itself has been forgotten!
Finally, he seemed to have truly transformed into the giant red-eyed toad, standing on the top of the mountain and beginning to swallow the lunar moonlight.
Under the mountain, there is a huge cold pool. There is also a moon and a red-eyed toad in the cold pool.
For a moment, I couldn't tell which was the moon in the sky and which was the moon in the water!
Even the matter of swallowing the lunar moonlight itself is not a deliberate practice, but a kind of...life instinct!
Gu Gu, Gu Gu, Gu Gu!
In the sky of Longzhu Cave, the full moon slowly began to appear imperfections. It changed from a full moon to a half moon and then to a quarter moon, as if it had really been swallowed by the red-eyed toad.
The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows. This is a difficult thing in ancient times!
Even if the toad really wants to swallow the sky, how can the moon really be swallowed up?
That quarter moon slowly turned into a half moon and a full moon again, and then turned into a half moon and a quarter moon again little by little.
Over and over again, the cycle goes on and on, endlessly!
Time seems to pass crazily in this kind of "thinking" and "forgetting". I don't know how long it has passed. It may be decades or hundreds of years.
But it could be just a few breaths!
Yu Youquan seemed to have completely become a moon-swallowing toad, just instinctively swallowing the lunar moonlight, and instinctively chasing the evolution of life.
"It" doesn't even know that this "instinct" is essentially...cultivation!
Cultivation is a gift from God to the world, and this gift is not just given to human beings.
What's more, the sensitivity of many animals to spiritual practice far exceeds that of humans.
Like some species of mythical beasts, they are born with shortcuts.
And these are also many secrets of human cultivation, which are essentially imitations of animals and even other species!
It's like the secret method he practiced was born out of the golden toad looking at the moon, which means swallowing the moon!
Later, whenever night comes, "it" will inevitably appear on the top of the mountain.
What's more, even if it's a rainy day and the moon doesn't rise, "it" still knows that the moon is there. As long as "it" opens its mouth, it can naturally absorb the moonlight.
Perhaps with the waxing and waning of clouds and clouds, the power of the moon may become stronger or weaker, but the moon is always there, neither far nor near!
And this is... the way of heaven!
There is no sun or moon in practice, time flies by in a blink of an eye.
With years of persistence, my cultivation gradually deepened, and my body and soul were baptized and transformed.
Even the darkness in the empty space between his eyebrows began to fade away, and the fine sand emitting brilliance not only became more numerous, but also became brighter and brighter.
Some grains of sand even began to glow like the moon!
What Yu Youquan didn't know was that just when his spirit was completely immersed in the artistic conception of "The Golden Toad Watching the Moon and Swallowing Qi", his body began to be covered with a layer of moonlight.
The giant horned viper who was guarding him was suddenly surprised when he saw this.
As a great demon, it is already a certain instinct to swallow the essence of the sun and the moon, but the moonlight on Yu Youquan's body is too rich.
What's even more outrageous is that Yu Youquan's meaning of moonlight even has a faint feeling of waning and waning!
What is this?
The giant-horned viper's eyes flickered, becoming more and more curious about Yu Youquan's secret. It instinctively moved closer, but even the slightest bit of leakage benefited him a lot!
And during this process, Yu Youquan's nearly overflowing Qi and blood spontaneously began to converge toward the Tianmen point between his eyebrows.
This is like a signal for a general attack. Of course, it can be described as a dam bursting. In a short period of time, the life essence contained in Yu Youquan's blood, bone marrow, organs, and fascia began to converge toward the Tianmen point. .
In the process, the general offensive army also encountered blocking embankments.
That is the Tianmen that stretches across like a golden beam, isolating the inner and outer heaven and earth from each other!
It is extremely strong, as if it were cast from divine iron, and has the ultimate power to cut off the path of cultivation for most living beings.
but.
Such a strong Tianmen, faced with the mighty impact, instantly began to shake violently, and a large number of cracks appeared.
And during this process, the consciousness in the space between Yu Youquan's eyebrows mixed with other soul thoughts and turned into a second powerful impact force, which began to impact the Tianmen again.
Click!
Along with a shattering sound, the extremely tall Tianmen, which stretched for countless miles, suddenly collapsed.
If anyone saw Yu Youquan opening the Tianmen, they would be so frightened that they would lose control of their speech.
In fact, his process of attacking Tianmen was too smooth and concise.
If other people were knocking on Tianmen, it would seem like they were having a difficult labor that lasted for a long time, but for him, knocking on Tianmen, it would be like the child was born before anyone even realized it!
The most important thing is that the size of the heavenly gate opened by Yu Youquan... is rare in the world!
And at the moment when Yu Youquan's water overflowed and opened the Tianmen, Yu Youquan, who still thought he was a red-eyed toad, instinctively swallowed a mouthful of moonlight.
Different from the past where he only absorbed the spiritual world, this time his heavenly gate has been opened, and the barriers between the inner and outer world have completely disappeared. Yu Youquan swallowed up the moonlight in his consciousness, and in the real world, he also swallowed up the vitality of heaven and earth.
Not only Yu Youquan, but also the first breath of vitality that all practitioners inhale after successfully knocking open the Heavenly Gate is like the first breath taken by a newborn after birth.
That’s why it’s so meaningful!
In the world of spiritual practice, this first breath is often regarded as the practitioner's first cry in the world...cry!
It is almost equivalent to the first time a practitioner actively announces his arrival to the entire world!
It's a pity that a newborn is a newborn after all, and the first cry is too low-pitched after all. Except for the teacher who is relatively close and devotes his whole body and mind to him, it is really difficult for anyone to hear him.
but.
After all, there are some... exceptions in this world!
For example, the He Family Qilin He Qianxing's first cry after knocking on the Heavenly Gate directly attracted the attention of the head of the Jiuxuan Sect.
It's the day.
A cry rang out from the depths of Panlong Mountain. The sound was not too loud, but to some beings, it was no more than a thunder.
The two closest ones, Venerable Xuantian and Zheng Xuancheng, sat up in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief.
As time goes by, more and more great beings are hearing this cry.
for example.
The red-backed tasseled spider was also relatively close, barely reaching the threshold, but heard by chance;
Separated by countless mountains and rivers, Yi Hongyuan, the head of the Jiuxuan Sect, is far away;
The abbot of Prajna Temple, the head of the Buddhist sect, the great master of the Wei Dynasty, and the Zen master of Samadhi;
There were three other people who made the same similar reaction, as well as the head of the Jiuxuan Sect and the Grand Master of the Wei Dynasty, who were also known as "saints".
Others such as the old offerings in Jianye Palace;
Yao Qi, Yuan Zheng, the old head of the four families;
There are also those powerful people all over the world who are revered as the "Nine Kings", who have all heard this cry more or less.
And everyone who heard this cry looked in the same direction.
Another proud man who can rival Qilinzi?
How can it be? !
The birth of Hejia Qilin made everyone feel incredible. They thought that this was a saint who was born only once every thousand years, but they never thought that another saint would be born in such a short period of time.
I really can’t let that unicorn stand out from the crowd!
Is this the golden age? !
