Looking at Xuan Chen's fiery eyes, even as a saint, I felt a little embarrassed.
After all, it was because this disciple mentioned the word "education" that I became a enlightened person and became a saint. After all, I owed a share of cause and effect.
However, I had previously calculated that I did not have a master-disciple relationship with this son. Moreover, this son had a strong determination to pursue the Tao and had many merits. He was a good young man and his achievements would not be low in the future. However, my Tao emphasized inaction and a person. Let nature take its course. If you are too determined to cultivate your own path, you will get twice the result with half the effort, or even make no progress.
I thought for a while and took out a purple gold gourd. The gourd was in Xuanchen's hands in the blink of an eye.
"I have said before that there is no master-disciple relationship between us. This gourd was obtained by me from Buzhou Mountain in the past. It is among the top innate spiritual treasures. It contains forty-two innate prohibitions. There are also many pills in it, which is enough. You have cultivated to the point where you can be used by Daluo Jinxian. The reason why I became enlightened was inspired by your words of enlightenment. If I give this treasure to you, how will the cause and effect be solved for you and me?"
Xuanchen knew the origin of this gourd when he heard Laozi say that it was obtained from Buzhou Mountain and was ranked among the top innate spiritual treasures.
After the second lecture of Zixiao Palace in the past year, the gourd vine, one of the top ten innate spiritual roots, was born. There were seven gourds on it, one for each of the Three Pure Ones, one for Nuwa, Hongyun, and Donghuang Taiyi, and one for each. An immature purple-green gourd was taken away by the boy Haotian sent by Hongjun Daozu.
It is true that the gourd vine was miserable. It was cut into pieces as soon as it was born. Not only the gourds were divided, but the gourd vines and the soil where the gourds grew were taken away by Nuwa. The soil was used to create humans. Used to mix mud, it is really the most miserable thing in the world.
However, there are many spiritual treasures in my hand, and this one is not missing, and few of my saints dare to fight with me. Although it is a top-quality innate spiritual treasure, it can only be used for elixirs.
Later, during the Journey to the West, I was stolen from the lower world by two children, which almost caused Sun Wukong to stumble. As long as he calls out the other person's name, no matter the real name or a pseudonym, he will be sucked into the gourd. If it is activated with magic power, he will be sucked into the gourd. It will turn into thick water.
Xuan Chen naturally wanted this kind of magic weapon, not to mention that there were enough elixirs in it to be used by Da Luo, but Xuan Chen was not surprised. What's the difference in the city?
What is the most important thing in the prehistoric world is a backer? Is there any backer more secure than a saint, and this saint is Lao Tzu?
Don't you see that the Six Saints of the future will sign the list of Gods? Wouldn't I rather put my own good corpse on the list than sign Xuandu's name?
"Sage, I don't want this spiritual treasure. I beg you, saint, to show mercy and accept me as your disciple."
Xuan Chen was unwilling to give up. The disciple of the saint was much more valuable than the best innate spiritual treasure.
"Idiot, it's not that I don't want to accept you. Firstly, you and I really don't have the relationship of master and disciple; secondly, your desire to seek the Tao is too strong. This is a good thing, but my Tao emphasizes doing nothing, letting nature take its course, and pursuing the Tao. Being too strong-willed can be counterproductive.”
"Let me ask you, why do you seek Tao? Immortality? Dominance?"
I asked immediately. He was also curious that this young man seemed out of place with the other people in the human tribe. Everyone else thought about how to survive and live a better life every day. Only this person was pursuing the way of cultivation.
Different road non-phase plan.
Is that so? Xuan Chen thought, could it be that Lao Tzu's reluctance to accept his wishes was due to the incompatibility of the Tao? Lao Tzu emphasizes inaction, Yuan Shi emphasizes compliance with destiny, and Tong Tian wants to intercept a glimmer of life for all living beings.
Immortality? dominate? Xuan Chen shook his head. He might have thought about immortality, but that was just incidental. If he just pursued immortality blindly, what was the point of practicing Taoism?
As for seeking hegemony, no matter in his previous life or in this life, he has the temperament of a wandering cloud and wild crane. He has never had such an idea. Maybe he will stand up when the human race is in trouble, but he has never thought about it.
What is the purpose of practicing on your own? Recalling the five years he had traveled through the wilderness, he had seen his people fighting to the death with wild beasts and struggling to survive. He had seen the human race go from living like hair and drinking blood to the current situation. At first, he might just want to live.
Of course, I have also thought about the joy and pleasure of riding a sword on the wind and slaying demons in the world.
But when he saw the newly born human race jumping for joy and dancing because of a ball of fire, he secretly guided Youchao and Zhenyi to sew clothes and build houses, and even made fishing nets, bows and arrows, and pottery by himself.
Maybe he just wanted to gain merit at first, but seeing so many tribesmen's joy in catching prey with tools for the first time, Xuan Chen felt that his time traveling was not in vain.
Slowly, Xuan Chen thought more and more, thinking about his past life, thinking about the human race's transformation from living rough and drinking blood to slash-and-burn farming, thinking about the unity and unity in the face of disaster, and thinking about countless ancestors who have passed down the fire from generation to generation, and the blue road to open up the mountains and forests.
"I don't want to live forever, it just relieves my worries."
Xuan Chen replied that he wanted to cultivate the human race to keep the inheritance of the human race alive, to avoid the human race becoming a ration for the demon clan, to avoid the fate of the human race being refined into a witch-slaying sword, to want the human race to rise, and to want the human race to stand tall among thousands of people. At the top of the clan, if you don't have the ability, you will be alone. If you have the ability, you will help the world. What you want is peace of mind.
Perhaps the Tao of Tongtian is the most suitable for you.
"Disciple understands, thank you sage for your guidance."
After figuring it out, Xuan Chen only felt that his Taoist mind was empty. If he practiced at this time, he would get twice the result with half the effort.
"It doesn't matter. Although you and I don't have the relationship of master and disciple, you are from the human race and I am the leader of the human religion. This is also fate."
"I also ask the saint to take back the spiritual treasure. Disciple, I have something to ask for."
"What's the matter? As long as it's not a apprenticeship."
I looked at Xuan Chen who was bowing in the audience and said dumbfounded.
"Well, it does have something to do with becoming a disciple, but it's not about becoming a disciple of a saint. The saint has repeatedly stated that the saint and I are not a master-disciple. If Xuanchen insists on it, he will be ungrateful."
Xuan Chen quickly explained, am I so afraid of accepting disciples?
"One day ago, the vision of the three saints spread throughout the world. I can see that the saint has a close relationship with the saint who reaches the sky. The saint said that he is willing to intercept a glimmer of life for all living beings. Anyone who has the heart to follow the Tao can join his disciples. The disciple would like to ask a saint to recommend him on his behalf."
After saying that, Xuanchen quickly held the gourd in both hands and prepared to return it to me respectfully.
"Third brother?"
"It's a good choice. I can take you back to Kunlun, but whether third brother is willing to accept you as his disciple depends on your fate."
I was obviously in a good mood, so I agreed directly this time.
"Thank you, saint, for this gourd."
"Take it. It just settles the cause and effect between you and me. It's just a way to take you back to Kunlun."
After hearing what I said, Xuan Chen quickly bowed and thanked him. This is the best innate spiritual treasure. Let alone a small earthly immortal, there are not many Daluo Golden Immortals. Before, he was afraid that ordinary people would be innocent and harbor jade. But if you can become a saint's disciple, there are a few people who dare to attack the saint's disciples.
Don’t you see, Taoist Hongjun gave him seven rays of Hongmeng Purple Qi? None of the great powers in the prehistoric times dared to attack Taozu’s six disciples, but they only dared to attack the good old man Hongyun.
Then I waved my sleeves and robes, and I saw the breeze blowing by. Xuan Chen and Xuan Du beside him had changed their clothes. The animal skins on their bodies had turned into blue and white Taoist robes, and there were also a pair of boots on their bare feet. , even the hair was tied up by a green scarf.
"Since you two are going to return to Kunlun with me, your outfits are a bit out of place."
I don't know when I can learn spells. Xuanchen looked at the changes in his body and was very envious. There are several basic spells in the Jindan Dao taught by me, but they can only be learned in the heavenly realm. There is no way. Who can tell me now? Are they prehistoric floor tiles?
Then I asked Xuanchen and Xuandu to return to Kunlun with him in three days.
When the sermon ended, everyone dispersed.
Xuanchen returned to the thatched cottage and silently reviewed his gains and losses. Although I still did not accept him as his disciple, it was the same for him to become a disciple of Tongtian. At least he had a saint to back him up before becoming a god. It would take hundreds of thousands of years to become a god. , enough to develop silently.
Now that he has the method of cultivation and the magic power, Xuanchen looks at all his possessions: pottery bottles, fishing nets, bows and arrows stained with merit, and the clay leftover from Nuwa's creation of human beings mixed with the Three Lights Divine Water and Nine Heavens Breathing Soil. Tuan, the ultimate innate spiritual treasure purple gold gourd given by Lao Tzu.
The first is the top-grade innate spiritual treasure given by me, which is of the highest value. However, currently I cannot open it, let alone refining it. This level of spiritual treasure requires at least the True Immortal realm to activate it, so I can only watch it for the time being.
Secondly, there is the mud ball left by Nuwa when she created a human being. It is not a mortal thing, but for now I can only look at it.
Finally, he made the three-piece set of merits and virtues by himself. With the magic power, Xuan Chen finally understood the functions of the three objects and gave them names respectively: [Zhang Tian Bottle], [Dou Tian Net], [Xuan Tian] bow】.
As for the cause and effect of having such an awesome name, Xuanchen didn't consider that. After all, he was now related to the saint.
The Sky Palm Vase is actually a piece of storage equipment. It contains space and can store items. It is currently only a few square meters in size. As your mana increases, the internal space will become larger and larger. It is not half the price of Han Li's Sky Palm Vase. relation.
The Douting Net is a confinement magic weapon that can be used to trap enemies. The upper limit is unknown, but currently Xuanchen's magic power can at most temporarily imprison immortals.
The Xuantian Bow is naturally a long-range weapon, but currently its range and attack power are the best against immortals. It can be regarded as the only offensive weapon in Xuan Chen's hands.
The three magic weapons are currently limited by their materials and are not actually spiritual treasures. However, according to some common sense passed down by Laozi and Jindan Dao, merit gives the three magic weapons the possibility of growing. If you learn how to refine weapons, you can use the spiritual materials to Refining it together with the magic weapon, upgrading the level, and becoming a spiritual treasure of acquired merit.
Knowing the function of the magic weapon, Xuan Chen had a clear idea in his mind, and then he put the mud ball, Douting Net, and Xuantian Bow into the Zhangtian Vase. As for the purple gold gourd, it was currently too high-grade to put it in.
Three days flew by and it was time to leave.
