"What's the meaning?"
When Zhong Yan heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but ask.
To enhance the strength and foundation of an ancient civilized country, there is no doubt that it is a way to conquer other heavenly worlds, fantasy worlds, and even demon lands, and the Dark Holy Tower to strengthen and swallow the other party. Naturally, everything is one's own. This is Like a greedy snake, it constantly conquers worlds one after another. After swallowing territories one by one, it expands the territory of the entire civilization, swallows the origin of the world, and allows the World Tree to grow and transform.
This should be a normal development method.
In the City of Origin, the Holy Towers, Void Towers, Ten Thousand Realms Towers, Dark Towers, etc. all demonstrate the correctness of this method.
Now, Sima Yi said something different, and it was related to the development of a top ancient civilization, which made him secretly curious.
"Young Dao Zhong are not planning to chat here."
Sima Yi said with a smile: "In this sixth area, there is not only the Wanjie Tower, there are other buildings here, but there are no people there. There is an attic nearby. Why not go up and have a cup of tea and chat while drinking."
The most prosperous area in the City of Origin is the Ninth District. Other areas can only be entered by pioneer lords and even lords of civilization. Most lords of civilization cannot stay here for a long time. The main reason is for these special buildings with different functions. It's just a holy tower. There are buildings around it, and no one is prohibited from entering or leaving, but there is really nothing there. It's all empty. If you want to go in, you can go in at any time. If you want to drink tea, you have to make it yourself.
Soon, the two came to the attic.
Finding a random place, Sima Yi casually took out a small stove. There was a flame in the stove. This flame seemed to be no ordinary, it was a special flame. A teapot was also placed on it. The teapot was opened and taken out. A gourd filled with special spiritual spring water was naturally poured into the teapot, and two or three tea leaves that looked as white as snow were taken out. They were crystal clear and flawless, but you could see the natural textures on them. .
The flames rose, and the tea in the pot naturally began to heat up, gradually boiling at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This is our famous tea in Yajinzhong, called Yangchun Baixue. It can only be brewed with spiritual spring water from the snowy mountains. The most suitable water temperature is 80 degrees and cannot be completely boiled. Only in this way can the spirit of spiritual tea be preserved. , so that the taste of tea can be maintained at its best.”
"The flame in this stove is condensed using a special method. Its flame temperature can only reach 80 degrees, which can allow the tea to be fully soaked."
Sima Yi said with a smile.
While saying the same thing, he started brewing it skillfully. Soon, two cups of tea were brewed and placed in front of the two of them.
Looking at the tea soup, the color is actually transparent, crystal clear, and snow-white, just like the white snow on the snow-capped mountains.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Immediately, he felt that the tea soup was warm and not hot at all. His whole body felt like he had suddenly drank a cold drink on a hot summer day. It was like ice cream. His whole body felt like it was a cold drink. Comfort inside and out.
Moreover, the whole mind seems to be in a special state, all distracting thoughts have disappeared without a trace, it is unprecedentedly pure, and the soul becomes pure, as if the dust has been washed away. In this state, it seems that some problems encountered in the original practice can be easily solved, and practice can get twice the result with half the effort. If you practice at this time, if you delve into various skills, it will often be of great help.
"Good tea, really good tea."
Zhong Yan slowly came to his senses, and couldn't help but open his mouth to praise: "The snow is white in the spring, and it is clean and pure. If you can find three or five good friends, play the piano, paint, and sing a song, that will be the greatest happiness in life."
"Fellow Taoist is right. This Yangchun Baixue is also a top-notch tea among my Yajin people. All the famous people also like to drink it. Playing zither and chess, talking about Taoism and Taoism are also common things. If Taoist friends like it, wait a minute. I will give you two catties to fellow Taoist."
Sima Yi smiled slightly.
The customs of Yajin include all kinds of celebrities and refined scholars, playing piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, etc., and all major skills have been pushed to an extreme. Literati and refined scholars have always liked meeting close friends in mountains and rivers. If nothing else, let’s talk about piano skills. , in the Yajin, famous songs emerge in endlessly, and many elegant scholars dance to the music and play wildly, and their calligraphy and painting skills are unparalleled in the world.
All the worlds and ancient civilizations can be summarized in one sentence.
The literati were in the Song Dynasty, and the refined scholars were in the Jin Dynasty.
The relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty was quite harmonious.
The two ancient civilizations often travel to each other.
Yajin's piano player can destroy thousands of armies with one song and evolve into countless things. Painters can use painting to enter the Tao, control the spirit of painting, and exert terrifying power. Calligraphers can even crush all things with a thousand pounds of words. Writers can summon books. Inhabit the creatures, drive them to kill enemies, and even summon the most charming beauties to enjoy boundless beauty. Various, Yajin's civilization itself is not weak.
They took another path.
It's a pity that Yajin didn't find his own path, but relied on the way of the divine man.
In the end, they can only rely on the gods and men, and each other's civilizations have a continuous relationship with each other.
Of course, it is none of Zhong Yan's business whether he will suffer or not. Anyway, this is also Yajin's problem.
"Then thank you fellow Taoist for the gift."
Zhong Yan thanked him first, and then continued to ask: "I don't know what your friend meant before. Shouldn't the path to the development of civilization be to conquer all the worlds, fight against the Dark Holy Tower, and turn it into materials for one's own growth? , could it be that there are other ways to develop and expand civilization?"
There was no hiding his curiosity in his voice.
Any possibility that can promote the development of civilization is worth grasping.
"Fellow Taoist, do you know why top civilizations such as the Xian Qin, Shen Han, Sheng Tang, Confucian and Song Dynasties were able to develop so rapidly? Their territory expanded rapidly, far exceeding that of ordinary ancient civilizations, and they were able to grow rapidly in a short period of time. , greatly increasing the foundation of civilization, even the last Yaoqing has now reached the top level of civilization, which is not comparable to ordinary civilizations."
Sima Yi filled the tea cup again, placed the teapot on the stove, and continued to maintain the perfect temperature while looking at Zhong Yan.
"But because these ancient civilizations have left a history on the ancestral planet, they can use the advantages of history to derive a steady stream of fantasy worlds in the endless void. When they are promoted to ancient civilizations, they can collect all the historical worlds related to them. In one place, it becomes the root of history. In one go, it can rival other civilizations that have developed for hundreds or thousands of years. It has a naturally rich foundation and a large number of talents and officials. There is no shortage of geniuses."
How could Zhong Yan not understand this, but jealousy cannot come from this kind of thing, no matter how jealous he is, he can only watch. They themselves have become one of the roots of civilization, which is a deserved benefit. No one can say a word, but they have the ability to leave a mark on the ancestral star.
This is something that cannot be helped, and no one can envy it.
If you say this, then there is no way to catch up.
"That's right. All major ancient civilizations have benefited from this, and I, Yajin, am actually a beneficiary of this. If it hadn't been for this, Yajin would not have developed so smoothly. However, after all, it lacked the foundation. Not as good as Xian Qin, Shen Han, this is Yi's fault in the past. The foundation is not solid, and this bitter pill must be eaten. Ya Jin has cut off the opportunity to be promoted to the top ancient civilization."
Sima Yi sighed deeply. Unless he found another way, it was almost impossible to be promoted to the top ancient civilization.
The name is not justified.
After all, it's a lack of foundation.
To advance to the top ancient civilization, you must create a new path, or build a racial civilization based on race. Otherwise, there will be almost no chance of climbing up. This is an iron rule. No matter how resourceful Sima Yi is, he will not Way to crack.
"This kind of enjoyment comes from the gift of history. Only civilizations like you can enjoy it. We, the latecomers, cannot enjoy it at all. There is no other way to go except the path of conquering the heavens. However, listening to what my fellow Taoists say, it seems There are other twists and turns.”
Zhong Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, knowing that since Sima Yi mentioned this, there must be a follow-up, otherwise, what he said before was just a bunch of bullshit. But since it has been proposed, it must have a purpose.
"Of course, fellow Taoists, do you know the relationship between Shengtang and Buddhism?"
Sima Yi suddenly asked.
"I know that Shengtang respects Buddhism, and the way of civilization in Shengtang is also a way of iconography that is derived from the meaning of Buddhist scriptures. This is a new way born out of the fundamental teachings of Buddhism. It is said that it is the way of Buddhism that has been obtained The golden body method is combined with the way of incense belief, the way of merit, etc., to create a great avenue. The way of cultivating the holy image. A holy image can be condensed in the body to carry the incense of all living beings. Faith in all sentient beings. Exhibit strong combat power."
Zhong Yan nodded. As the master of civilization, it was naturally impossible to miss the practice methods of major top civilizations. Generally speaking, the fundamental methods of practice of top civilizations are actually spread throughout the world. There is no need to keep them secret. On the contrary, , I wish that the more people who practice, the better. The more people who practice, the better it is for civilization, and it can also increase the spirit of civilization. This is the best manifestation of the spread of civilization.
Regarding the spiritual path in Qian Ling, a basic spiritual cultivation method has been compiled, called the "Heart Sutra", which has been circulated. In all the worlds, as long as there are big forces, they basically have a copy. Even if you don’t practice, you should take a look. After all, the way of the soul is very attractive to many monks.
As the top civilization of Shengtang, its way of cultivation is certainly not simple.
Although he is very close to Buddhism, he does not fully practice Buddhism. Otherwise, it would not be called Shengtang, but Buddhatang.
The way of icons is very special. They use the method of visualization to condense the vision. A vision is a core magical power, the kind that can cast the true sun.
