The three paths listed by Mr. Wang each have their own advantages and disadvantages.
"The Dao Sect's request is too great and too far."
Shen Gongbao shook his head and said: "I'm afraid that if this world returns to ruins, there won't be any signs."
Taozu sought the greatest and pursued the state of perpetual motion, achieving something out of nothing and basically satisfying all desires. If money, treasures, cars, and beauties were as easy to come by as air, there would be no fight for them.
After enjoying all the low-level fun, you feel empty and boring, and you will naturally move towards high-level pursuits, exploration, and understanding of life.
This road is the highest and largest, but also the most difficult.
What kind of realm is a perpetual motion machine that creates something out of nothing?
Shen Gongbao felt that he was at least a big Luo.
To seek the Daluo realm from the Earthly Immortal Realm, without anyone’s guidance, would at least be calculated based on countless calamities.
"So Dao Ancestor is Dao Ancestor."
Mr. Wang praised: "Since the destruction of Shen Dao and the rise of Qi refiners, Tao Ancestors were the first to open the way. Watching the gods and demons breathe out their vitality, pick up the Dharma and climb to the sky. No matter how difficult the road is, the Tao Ancestors of Dongsheng Shenzhou will do it." Go all the way."
"My life also has a limit, but my knowledge also has no limit. If I have a limit, I will follow the limitless, and that's it. Those who have already known it are gone."
"Taozu has a pure heart, a sincere heart, and can go on unswervingly. This is beyond my generation."
Shen Gongbao is thoughtful, saying that it will last through all eons and will never retreat. It is not only a realm, but also a Taoist heart.
If he loses this kind of Taoist heart, he is afraid that even Daluo will become an innate spiritual treasure.
"As for the Buddha's path."
Mr. Wang pondered for a moment and said slowly: "In order to appear impartial, you should approach hypocrisy."
The Buddha seeks the most, and hopes that all living beings will make selfless contributions. Before death, the golden body will be dispersed, the spiritual energy will be returned to heaven and earth, and the wealth will be returned to zero.
The human world is like a playground, where the will of all living beings reincarnates, experiencing all kinds of life, and finally awakening to Buddhahood. However, the spiritual energy always remains the same, neither increasing nor decreasing.
This path seems feasible, but human nature is full of greed, anger and ignorance, and we always want to eat more and occupy more.
As long as someone has selfish thoughts and brings five more kilograms of spiritual energy during the reincarnation process, and if it accumulates over time and people's hearts turn downward, then the six-path reincarnation system will inevitably collapse.
"So Fellow Daoist Wang thinks that the road to Buddhahood is impassable?" Shen Gongbao said meaningfully.
Mr. Wang, who conforms to the three religions, actually denies the path of the three religions and seeks his own new path through criticism and overthrow.
"The Buddha's path is only suitable for a small number of people."
Mr. Wang sighed and said: "The morality of all sentient beings is not that high, and the path of Buddha is destined to be unreachable. Unless we can truly achieve the state of Taoist creation out of nothing, with unlimited resources, and all living beings in the world will no longer worry about external things, only then can we build the Six Paths of Reincarnation." possible."
"Then Mr. Wang recognizes the path of the founder of the Mohist family?" Shen Gongbao asked again
Mr. Wang shook his head and said: "It is true to explore the outer world, but the concept of universal love and non-aggression cannot be realized. Just like my Confucian society of great harmony, it is just a dream."
The philosophy of the founder of Mohism seems to be more practical, to explore towards the outer world, step by step, and be able to see the trajectory of the road.
However, love has classes. An emperor can never love the common people. If a real dragon does not talk to ants, and the environment they live in is different, there will be no common language. Naturally, there is no so-called empathy and mutual love.
"Criticize the Tao, deny the Buddha, and criticize the Mo."
“It even denies its own Confucianism.”
Shen Gongbao suddenly laughed and said: "Fellow Daoist Wang, you are really a proud and almost arrogant person. Please let me hear your way."
"Buddhism says that all living beings are equal. Everyone has Buddha nature and can become a Buddha."
"I say: Everyone can be a saint."
Mr. Wang didn't hide anything, and said with great magnanimity: "The old saint is gone, and I will be the new saint. This is not pride, but also arrogance."
"A gentleman will not stand behind a dangerous wall, but a saint will do his duty!"
If he just wants to be a moral gentleman, he can hide under the big tree of Confucianism to enjoy the shade and enjoy various benefits with peace of mind.
But, he is not a gentleman, he wants to be a saint!
The establishment of a religion by a saint means rights, but also a huge responsibility. You must have the courage and responsibility to jump out of the cage of the three religions.
"The absence of good and evil is the essence of the heart. The existence of good and evil is the movement of the will. Knowing good and evil is conscience. Doing good and eliminating evil is the investigation of things."
Mr. Wang's big sleeves fluttered, and the chess pieces stood across the sky, like a starry sky, and the sound was like a bell: "My path is called investigation of things to achieve knowledge!"
"The real body is just Taixu. In Taixu, there is nothing like the sun, moon, stars, celestial bodies, wind, dew, thunder, lightning, haze, and choking air."
"Study things to gain knowledge, go back to their origins, and seek the truth of the universe."
"My heart is the universe, and the universe is my heart."
Shen Gongbao looked calm and just asked: "Fellow Taoist Wang, with what objects can we seek the truth of the universe, and with what methods can we study objects to gain knowledge?"
"Number!"
Mr. Wang looked solemn and said: "I have penetrated the three religions and studied hundreds of schools. I am always looking for the common ground of the three religions and hundreds of schools. Based on this point, I have made the three religions into one and the hundreds of schools of thought resonate."
"This point is number. The three teachings are the foundation and number is the foundation."
"I found that whether it is a Yin-Yang family, a medical family, a farmer's family, a Legalist family, a businessman... or even the most humble family, they all need numbers as support and as a foundation."
"Everything in the world is composed of numbers one after another. The universe is a universe of numbers. As long as you master the numbers, you can master the universe."
"If I understand the number of the universe, the universe will be in my heart."
Shen Gongbao said thoughtfully: "So, the school that Wang Daoyou developed can be called mind science?"
Mr. Wang said seriously: "It's also called mathematics."
It’s messed up, it’s messed up, it’s all messed up.
The corner of Shen Gongbao's mouth twitched slightly. Who knows what kind of sparks will arise when mathematics meets mathematics. No wonder people in this field say that Mr. Wang has the qualifications to open up the fourth religion.
It sounds nonsense to include the number of the universe carefully.
However, if placed in the world of immortality, in the universe of immortality, there is really a possibility.
Although this road is difficult and the time spent is endless.
But it is undeniable that this path is feasible.
At least, this path can go on forever. Only when you reach the last step can you know whether this path is correct and whether it is the truth.
"If one day, the end of the Dharma era really comes, then mathematics will become the only orthodoxy."
Mr. Wang paused, looked at the thin figure at the foot of the mountain, and said slowly: "Because the school of mathematics does not require aura, soul, or vajra body. Even a mortal with no qualifications can do it." You can use mathematics to peer into the avenues of heaven and earth and the truth of the universe!”
In the huge Zhuxian Town, there are more than 30,000 people. Everyone has luck and everyone can practice. However, it is self-evident who the guy who cannot practice and has no luck is.
In Fallen Leaves Alley, Chen Changsheng met the young man in golden clothes, Haizeng. It cannot be said that he was unlucky, but that it was the fate of the gods.
As the only person in the town who has no luck, Zhuxian Town's bad luck is almost all tilted towards him.
Now that the Heavenly Gate opens, bad luck from the outside world also pours in, naturally tilting towards Chen Changsheng.
As a result, Chen Changsheng became an anomaly, a strange existence that had the protagonist's bad luck but no protagonist's life.
The young man in golden clothes, Hai Zeng, is naturally sensitive to Qi. When the two meet, he is like a fire dragon hitting a stream. He subconsciously wants to steam it dry and turn it into his own territory.
This is a torture from nature, a reminder from the depths of the soul.
"If I kill him, I can gain the favor of this world."
"Let Zhuxian Town's luck return to normal and obtain the blessing of the dragon's veins. Maybe we can get one or two valuable treasures."
The young man in gold, Hai Zeng, felt his heart tremble and made a decision in an instant. This was a blessing from heaven.
If he can take himself one step further, he already belongs to the group of geniuses with natural spiritual roots, cultivation seeds, and the hope of Yuanshen. What will happen if he can take one step further? !
A great monk who has survived the catastrophe and is waiting for the imperial edict to ascend? !
That is the top of the mountain. Apart from the three religions and hundreds of schools in the world, the ascended monk is the pinnacle of the human world. Why is the Tianzong so powerful and has the quota of Zhuxian Town in its hand? It is precisely because the Supreme Sect Master is A great monk in the Ascension Realm.
It is a large and well-known sect in Nanzhan Buzhou.
If he goes one step further, then Wentian Sect will have two ascended great monks. In the future, they may even represent Nanzhan Continent to participate in continental wars and seize the destiny of all the nine states in the world.
As soon as he thought of this, the young man in golden clothes, Haizeng, felt extremely hot in his heart.
"Teacher, I want to kill him."
The old Taoist priest narrowed his eyes and secretly replied: "There are sages from the three religions in Zhuxian Town, don't let them discover you."
The young man in gold, Haizeng, suddenly beamed with joy. He knew that the teacher hurt him the most.
From the beginning to the end, neither the master nor the disciple asked about the reason for the killing, nor did they consider whether Chen Changsheng was good or evil. The only consideration was punishment from the stronger person.
As for Chen Changsheng's life, he is just a mortal. To a practitioner, he is like an ant. Is there any reason to step on an ant to death?
unnecessary.
Even Master and Disciple Haizen felt that he had been merciful enough and only killed one person.
It is said that in Beiju Luzhou, a place where demons thrive, mortals replace spiritual stones and become currency-like existences. The great demon founded the country to raise mortals in captivity, open up a human market, and sell them regularly.
There is a demonic sect that regularly collects blood taxes, and each town is a unit, and turns over a certain amount of boys and girls every year in exchange for the demonic sect's protection and not being eaten by the big demon.
Gods and demons, no matter how well-meaning they are, are actually too far away from humans. They are almost two races and two living beings.
A real dragon does not talk to ants, and all monks are indifferent.
With the saints and sages of the three religions watching, one cannot kill people blatantly. However, there are at least nine hundred ways for a monk to kill a mortal.
The young man in golden clothes and outstanding appearance, but his eyes were a little dark, looked at the thin young man at the end of the muddy road, waved his hand and said: "Come over here, kid, and show us the way."
"I'll reward you with this piece of gold."
A golden stone appeared in Haizeng's hand, but a hint of sneer appeared in the corner of his mouth. How could a poor young man in a small town have any knowledge? It was a great blessing to see a few pieces of silver in his life.
This piece of gold can buy a dean with three entrances and three exits in the secular world, saving people fifty years of struggle.
Money moves people's hearts.
In the small town, the saints of the three religions are not allowed to kill people. However, if someone is interested in making money and murders, and outsiders fight back, the saints who sit here will not care.
In the vast world of mortals, with three thousand temptations, there will always be something that will kill you.
Gold, silver, treasures, enchanting beauties, fame, fortune and achievements... I don't believe you can give them all away. The gods who have been cultivating in the mountains for many years, and the prime ministers who are in charge of the court in the secular world may not have such a character.
…
Chen Changsheng remained unmoved in the face of various temptations. Apart from his own perseverance, he also had self-awareness. He had been unlucky since he was a child, and he could not grasp the blessings from heaven. Instead, he would usher in disasters.
More importantly, an extra hairpin appeared on Chen Changsheng's bun. Grandpa Xu's voice echoed in his ears, seeming to tell him.
"Be careful with these two."
Chen Changsheng was cautious and guarded the spiritual platform, not daring to step even half a step beyond the thunder pool.
However, in this world, it is not that you can protect yourself by being careful. More often than not, someone wants you to die.
After walking out of Fireworks Alley, the young man in gold looked smiling, but in fact he was already irritated and unwilling, just like a fisherman who has been fishing for many years and sees a fish that is still alive but refuses to take the bait.
"go to hell!"
Hai Zeng gritted his teeth and stopped fishing. Instead, he went directly to the water to draw water. He took out a small sword from the Qiankun bag and threw it at Chen Changsheng, pretending to be disapproving and said: "I'll reward you."
It seems like a rich young master lavishly rewards his servants, but the jeweled emerald sword hides a murderous intention.
If it were run with spiritual energy, it would be an immortal sword with unparalleled killing power. However, this sword was a poisonous immortal sword. If a mortal came into contact with it, his body would turn into pus within a moment.
"He's going to kill you."
Xu Taiding's voice rang in Chen Changsheng's ears. In just a moment, the thin young man made up his mind, bowed his hands, bowed in thanks, and then thrust out his sword without hesitation.
The power of the end of Zhuxian Town is so strong that the monks are almost reduced to mortals and can only act based on past experience.
Hai Zeng's expression changed, and he wanted to turn around to dodge the sword, but his physical body could not keep up with the changes in his spiritual thoughts. The small Biluo sword passed by his body and cut a hole. Blood flowed out, not red, but green.
This is a poisonous sword.
"How dare you, ant!!!"
Haizeng's teacher, the old Taoist priest, was furious. He ignored the rules of the town and came down in an instant. He slapped Chen Changsheng several feet away with one palm strike.
The monks were almost suppressed into mortals, almost, not completely.
If the rules are ignored, as at this time, outsiders can still exert a bit of divine power.
Looking at Chen Changsheng, who was not turned into a corpse but was just vomiting blood, the old Taoist priest's eyes were cold and he said ruthlessly: "You are not dead. It turns out that you are protected by a Yin spirit. Haha, I beat you to death."
Xu Laodao's soul was rippling and his expression was pale. He kowtowed towards the academy and shouted: "Help me, real man."
"No one can save you."
The old Taoist priest was determined to kill, and even if he was punished afterwards, he would kill these two hidden dangers.
"Alas, you cultivate your strength but not your heart."
"It's becoming increasingly irrelevant."
In a Taoist temple in Zhuxian Town, a Taoist priest who was soundly asleep turned over, muttering in his sleep, and waved his hand.
Master and disciple Haizeng, who originally had murderous intent, was thrown out of Zhuxian Town.
