What is Tao?
According to the understanding of the first Shen Gongbao, Tao is Newton's three laws, the atomic bomb equation, E=MC2, and Tao is the general outline.
What is law?
The Dharma is the technological process, the factory locomotive, the meridians of the human body, the secret realm of the acupoints, and the Dharma is the movement.
What is art?
Technique is a nuclear bomb, a spell, a laser, a flying sword, a fire bomb, an airplane, a tank, and a technique is a finished product.
Before becoming an earthly immortal, practitioners used magic and borrowed the ways of heaven and earth. After becoming immortals, they need to understand the Tao on their own and become independent.
Just like ordinary people, when you use a gun to kill someone, you don't need to understand the principles of firearms. To use a refrigerator, you don't need to know the ice-making principle of the refrigerator. You only need to have hands and feet, as long as you know how to use it.
A monk who has not yet become an Earth Immortal does not need to know what the Great Way of Fire is to cast fire spells. He can just follow the instructions in the book, circulate the magic power and then release it to kill the enemy. To cast ice spells, he does not need to know how the ice law evolves. Just take good care of the natural factory of the human body and cast the magic of ice step by step.
A person who cultivates the truth does not understand the Tao. He has a method in the Tao and a skill in the method. He has faith and determination and will never waver for the rest of his life. The qi of the five elements, misunderstandings and misunderstandings, are solid in form and quality, cannot be harmed by the eight evil diseases, have more peace and less disease, and are called immortals.
All realms before the Earth Immortal are collectively called Human Immortals, because Human Immortals do not seek Taoism but practice magic.
Starting from the earthly immortals, it is completely different. Immortals are seekers of the Tao, those who understand the Tao, those who realize the Tao, and those who preach the Tao.
You can't just use magic. You need to transform into a scientist with a spirit of exploration, creativity, and imagination, to understand the laws of heaven and earth, master the origin, summarize the laws, and finally turn it into your own path.
However, seeking the Tao, enlightening the Tao, proving the Tao, and preaching are all inseparable from the help of words.
In the realm of immortality, words have power.
The process of evolution from innate Taoist writing to Houtian prose is the method of Taoism.
The acquired loose characters are the Dharma, and the Dharma has the spirit, which is the magical power.
The magical power can be broken down into techniques.
"The innate Taoist text is the true meaning of the great road, and the acquired prose is the evolution of the law. It is needed to practice exercises, draw talismans, inscribe formations, and refine magic weapons..."
"If you master Houtian Sanzi and can interpret the innate Taoist texts by yourself, you are an Earth Immortal who is qualified to practice the Treasure Sutra."
Yuanshi Tianzun said calmly.
Shen Gongbao burst into tears and struggled to survive in the world of the Sutra Library.
I never thought that after cultivating immortality, I would still have to study.
However, this is the standard of Yuanshi Tianzun.
In the view of Yuanshi Tianzun, Earth Immortal is the first realm of immortality, just like a mortal child. What is important at this time is to study hard, master the text, and enlightenment.
Immersed in the mountains of books and the sea of learning, comprehending various immortal runes, Shen Gongbao worked tirelessly until he saw a volume of immortal scrolls.
An idea flashed in his mind. There is also a Celestial Dao Fruit that reminds me of myself.
Shen Gongbao couldn't help but curiously asked: "Teacher, I've become an Earth Immortal. Why do I have the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit? I don't think it's the Earth Immortal realm, or the Heavenly Immortal realm."
"What is realm?"
Yuanshi Tianzun asked back
Shen Gongbao was stunned on the spot. Yes, what is a realm? He has always practiced for the sake of cultivation and became an immortal.
I have never thought about it, what is realm? !
"The so-called realm is just a way for mediocre people to cross the river by feeling the stones."
"The realm is the realm, and the cultivation level is the cultivation level. They are two different things."
Yuanshi Tianzun joked: "Zhen Yuanzi is the ancestor of the Earth Immortal. He was the first to open up the Earth Immortal realm. He still holds the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit. Who is stronger or weaker between you and him?"
"Isn't the immortal way taught by Taoist Hongjun? The realm of earthly immortals was opened by the Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi!"
Shen Gongbao lost his voice, which subverted his understanding of prehistoric times.
"Hongjun." At the mention of this name, Yuanshi Tianzun straightened his expression and said meaningfully: "He is indeed the Taoist ancestor, but the immortal way was not taught by him. Strictly speaking, it was achieved through him."
"The realm of Earth Immortals was opened up by Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun. They were the first Earth Immortals."
"The realm of heavenly immortals was opened up by my master, together with your uncle and uncle. We are the first heavenly immortals."
"The realm of Golden Immortal was opened up by two Taoist friends from the West. They were the first Golden Immortal."
"The realm of Taiyi was opened by the Duke of the East and the Queen Mother of the West, learning from the God of Taiyi."
"The Daluo realm was opened up by Taoist Hongjun."
"Because he opened up the highest realm of immortality, we, the group of seekers, worship him as our teacher and respect him as the ancestor of Taoism."
"Since then, there have been theories about Daluo True Immortal, Daluo Celestial Immortal, Daluo Golden Immortal, and Daluo Divine Immortal."
"You are from my lineage of Celestial Immortals. Although your cultivation level is at the level of Earth Immortal First Level, your fruition status is that of Celestial Immortal Dao Fruit..."
Shen Gongbao was shocked for a long time before digesting the shocking news.
This prehistoric world seems a bit abnormal. It is actually an immortal system that was put together by Xixi.
All the founders of the cult are the founders of the Tao. Only those who have opened up a new realm, led all living beings, and taught the world can be qualified to become a cult leader.
Why is there a retrograde attack on immortals, and why is there a weak defeat of the strong?
That's because realm and cultivation are two different things.
Realm is not about strength or weakness, it is about academic qualifications, achievement status, an immortal's mastery of the Tao, and his status in a field.
Cultivation is power, it is an immortal's use of his own knowledge and his understanding of the Tao.
The victory of the Earth Immortal over the Celestial Immortal is not due to victory in realm, but victory in cultivation. It is because the Earth Immortal's understanding of Tao is superior to that of the Celestial Immortal.
Just like a bachelor's degree ranked first in a key university, he has won various awards and participated in various projects. His degree is not as good as that of a graduate student, but this does not prevent his academic level from being compared to a parallel graduate student or even a parallel PhD.
Realm is knowledge, cultivation is action.
Only when knowledge and action are united can one be a true immortal.
An ancestor like Zhen Yuanzi, an Earth Immortal, is more like the founder of an Earth Immortal University. He stands at the forefront of academic theory and practice.
He was able to achieve Daluo in one step from the realm of earthly immortals, ignoring many hurdles, because his accumulation and understanding were enough.
Even if you have a bachelor's degree, you don't have to take the exams for master's, doctorate, professor, academician and other certificates, but you can reach the sky in one step and receive the Nobel Prize.
However, one can imagine the difficulties involved.
"But what is the realm of Daluo True Immortal?"
There is still a trace of doubt in Shen Gongbao's heart. The Daluo Celestial Immortal is a descendant of the Celestial Immortal lineage, and the Daluo True Immortal is a true Immortal lineage.
In the vast universe, it seems that there is currently no such degree and realm as a true immortal.
"Oh, it was originally Da Luo Earth Immortal, but fellow Taoist Zhen Yuanzi thought it sounded bad, so he changed it to Da Luo True Immortal."
Yuanshi Tianzun said calmly
The corner of Shen Gongbao's mouth twitched, okay, the boss is willful, who let me be the ancestor of the earth immortal and have the right to name it.
After getting his doubts clarified, Shen Gongbao took back his mind and continued to study in the mountains of books.
It's just that this time he had a great enlightenment and tried to use the Celestial Dao Fruit to learn.
