The human world.
Xuanchen had just discovered Nezha's existence at Hangu Pass, and he knew why Yuanshi Tianzun's plan was leaked. Even if the plan was perfect, there was still a thief!
Guard against day and night, it is difficult to guard against house thieves.
Because he had advanced the Great Tribulation to the Human Emperor period, and had been practicing hard in seclusion before, he did not pay too much attention to the layout of the saints in the human world.
I originally thought that Nezha would not be born.
But seeing the Qiankun Circle and Hun Tianling in his hand, plus the Jade Pure Immortal Technique he practiced, there was no doubt that it was Nezha.
And he was still accepted as a disciple by Taiyi Zhenren, but this time the recruitment was probably done deliberately by Empress Nuwa, in order to better understand the layout of the second uncle.
Empress Nuwa really worked hard for her brother!
Even the spy was revealed.
However, the second uncle did not hesitate to give in too much, letting Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao join Zhuanxu and Fuxi respectively, causing trouble, provoking a war between the two sides, and wearing down their strength.
If the plan hadn't been leaked, maybe it would have happened.
Yang Chan followed Xuan Chen and asked: "Master, didn't you say you were going to Hangu Pass? Why did you leave after just one glance? I also want to meet some of the uncles from Jie Jiao!"
Xuan Chen smiled and said: "You little girl, why are you meeting my uncle? You want to see your second brother, but you are not in a hurry. I have other important matters here. I will wait until the matter here is over." It’s not too late to go and reminisce about the past.”
"Now, I will take you to meet your uncle first."
Yang Chan was a little embarrassed after being exposed. She really wanted to see her second brother.
However, I am really curious as to which uncle it is that actually prevented Master from having time to reminisce with Uncle Yunxiao.
Soon, the two landed in a city.
This city belonged to South Korea and was later captured by the Qin army. However, when the Six Nations Allied Forces arrived, it was abandoned by Bai Qi.
Here, Xuan Chen saw someone he hadn't seen for a long time. It was Jinnara who had been possessed by the devil before and was deceived by Xuan Chen into leaving the Western Sect and joining the Jie Sect.
At first Kinnara abandoned his cultivation, but the leader of Tongtian Cult looked at him differently and accepted him as his twelfth direct disciple.
He even asked Kui Niu to protect his safety.
But since then, Xuanchen has never seen Kinnara again. Now they meet again in the human world, and Kinnara has also recovered to the level of Daluo Jinxian.
Although there are differences between Xuanmen Kung Fu and the essence of Buddhism, they all come from the immortal way taught by Taoist Hongjun.
With Kinnara's talent, he has now regained the cultivation level at the peak of Daluo, and has broken and stood up again. Daluo has blossomed into the ninth level, and his foundation has reached a higher level.
I saw a monk in white clothes, sitting on Kui Niu, like a banished immortal coming to the dust.
However, the people around them turned a blind eye to this, as if this person and the cow did not exist at all, as if they were there.
However, it is only effective for mortals, and it still has no great effect against Xuan Chen.
Xuanchen looked at Kinnara with a smile and said, "Junior brother Kinnara, long time no see!"
It was precisely because he felt Kinnara's aura that he quickly brought Yang Chan here. If he had been slower, he might not even be able to see the other party's shadow.
Kinnara also showed a smile and said, "Senior Brother Xuanchen, long time no see."
After joining Jie Jiao, he naturally wanted to call him Senior Brother Xuan Chen.
Kui Niu behind him also mooed, seeming to be happy to see an acquaintance.
There were many people here, and although Kinnara's method of concealing his aura was indeed effective, it was not a good place to chat, so the three of them and one cow came to a mountain forest.
Xuan Chen smiled and said: "Congratulations to Junior Brother Kinnara for standing up after breaking through. Your cultivation level has reached a higher level."
Even though he was going through the path of cultivation all over again, going from a mortal to the pinnacle of Daluo in just tens of thousands of years was commendable, and Xuanchen could tell that Kinnara was suppressing his realm.
Otherwise, I am afraid that I would have achieved the quasi-sage realm long ago.
I just don’t know, has he found his own way?
Kinnara had a kind face, as if he could not see the vicissitudes of having fallen into the devil's way, but his eyes were full of wisdom, and he said: "Compared with senior brother Xuanchen, it is not worth mentioning. I found that the former Buddhist Dharma stand It is too high and too far, and although it is good to teach without distinction, it cannot take into account all sentient beings, so I have been walking in this world, trying to find a new path."
"There are seven emotions and six desires in this world, good and evil are intertwined, and there is karma. Everyone is pursuing their own goals. It is much more interesting than practicing stagnant water all the way. There are new insights every day."
The breeze blows and the leaves rustle.
It seems to be in response to Kinnara's words, and as if time is lingering in my heart, letting the years continue to settle and turn into wisdom.
Deep love will not last long, and wisdom will be damaged.
Of these two things, one needs time to test and the other needs time to settle. It is obvious that Kinnara is no longer a paranoid person who only has Buddhism and Asham.
Time has accumulated and brewed them one by one, turning them into the most fragrant wine.
The mountains are far away and the water is far away, blocking the world of mortals.
The rough robe is in ruins, and everything is upside down in the sleeves.
The sun and moon are on our shoulders, and the universe is in our arms. I always let the haze roar proudly, and the world is at ease.
The dragon descends and the tiger lies high on the road, the purple mist protects the new nest, and the white clouds make old friends.
Immortal, only sleep in a pot.
Mortal experiences seemed to Xuan Chen to be just a dream, extremely short-lived, but they affected his long life, supporting him from being a little clay figurine made by Nuwa to where he is today.
He also understood Kinnara's sentiments.
The word "immortal" is one person and one mountain. If you only know how to practice in seclusion and don't care about the world of mortals, how can you seek the great road?
However, he still had some doubts, and immediately asked: "Junior brother has a clear Taoist heart, and I admire him. It's just that I think that junior brother can break through to the quasi-sage realm a long time ago, but for some reason he has been suppressing it?"
Kinnara smiled and said: "It's not that I can't, but that I don't want to. There are joys, sorrows, and joys in this human world, and the life of a mortal has its own taste. If I leave like this, I will be a little reluctant to leave."
The human world excludes monks above Daluo Jinxian. Once promoted to quasi-sage, they will be excluded by the power of this world.
But Xuan Chen didn't expect that Kinnara would become addicted to staying in the mortal world.
"Don't talk about destiny when you understand the Tao, and don't take the true scriptures for practice. One is sad, one is happy, and the other is prosperous. Which previous life is destined? The cassock is not pure, and the mortal world is not stained. The nature is empty. The thousand-year-old bells in the quiet ancient temple are all idiots' dreams."
"If you want to cultivate the immortal way, you must first cultivate the human way. If you haven't cultivated the human way, the immortal way will be far away."
"Junior Brother Kinnara has such an enlightenment, which makes me feel ashamed. At least I can't give up my own practice just to save all sentient beings."
Xuanchen smiled slightly, it was a blessing to have people like Kinnara in the world.
The more people like this the better.
What he said was true. At least he couldn't give up his own practice to help others. If he had the ability, he might help, but if he didn't, he would just stand by and watch.
If Kinnara really does what he says, becoming a Buddha and becoming an ancestor will not be a problem in the future.
There are many monks in the ancient world, and the great quasi-sage is like a crucian carp crossing a river, but few care about the feelings of mortals. Even he is like this. Now he uses the human world as a situation to bring all the saints to their fate.
This is all wishful thinking on his part.
He believed that this would be beneficial to the development of the human race, but he never asked those mortals for their opinions.
At some point, he was getting farther and farther away from someone.
He realized this a long time ago, so he gave it to Shennong after he obtained the Kongtong Seal.
Because he cannot sacrifice himself for others and give everything for the human race.
He has always believed that if you are poor, you can take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you can help the world. However, if there are too many people like him, the world will inevitably become muddy, and there is also a need for people like Suiren who can burn themselves and illuminate others.
From the time when Nuwa, the empress, was ignorant and confused after she created the human race, to leading the human race to struggle to survive in the wilderness, although the road was difficult and full of difficulties, she never thought of backing down.
This is why Xuanchen chose the Suiren clan and helped him reincarnate into the Lieshan clan step by step, eventually becoming the humane saint Shennong.
Kinnara seemed to have some realization, and sighed: "Brother, it seems that you are much more thorough than me, but I can only help a small number of people in this human world, but I can't save all living beings. All living beings still need to survive on their own." OK."
In the tens of thousands of years he has been in the human world, he has seen too many life and death, as well as too many blessings and sufferings.
Some people blame others and just go with the flow.
Some people angrily denounce injustice and resist with all their might.
Some people laugh at the vicissitudes of life and regard suffering as God's experience for them.
Some people complain of misfortunes and blame everything on their past lives and God.
In short, he has seen all kinds of things in the world, and he no longer wants to save everyone. Some people are hopeless in placing their fate on false things.
Only those who still have hope in their hearts will help.
If he had succumbed to fate, even if he could save him once, he would not be able to save him for the rest of his life.
He once saved a slave, but servility was deeply rooted in his bones. He saved the slave, but not only did he not receive the slave's thanks, but he also blamed himself for causing the slave to offend the slave owner.
Xuanchen looked at Jinnuluo's sad face and knew that he must have gone through a lot in these years. With a move in his heart, he asked, "Junior brother, does he know about Confucius?"
Kinnara nodded and said: "The leaders of today's Confucianism naturally know."
Xuan Chen smiled and said: "Then do you know that he is also a disciple accepted by Master? I heard that he wants to spread Confucianism throughout the human world so that everyone can learn etiquette and all living beings can read. He Can't you do what you can do? Brother Kinnara, why don't you spread the method of self-transcendence to the world, so that everyone can overcome the sea of suffering and lead to the other side?"
In Xuanchen's view, although Kinnara has now changed to Xuanmen Kung Fu, he still adheres to the Buddhist scriptures in his heart.
If one can also study Buddhism and Taoism, if he can integrate all the meanings of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and the classics, he may not be unable to find a bright road.
Allowing all sentient beings to have a way of self-transcendence coincides with the teachings of Jie Jiao to intercept a ray of heavenly secrets for all sentient beings, and Kinnara is the most suitable person to do this.
Kinnara clasped his hands together and said, "Please give me some advice, senior brother!"
This was the first time he knew that Confucius was actually a disciple of the Master of Tongtian Cult.
Xuan Chen said seriously: "Buddha is the heart, Tao is the bones, and Confucianism is the surface. It's nothing more than this. Buddha is the true heart, the pure heart, which cannot be obtained without some practice. Tao is the path of practice, although it is difficult but indispensable. , like bones, you must be humble and courteous like Confucians in life and work, and these must start step by step with magnanimity.”
"Behave as a person in dealing with others, and practice it with the Confucian life philosophy of sincerity, respect, benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom, and trustworthiness."
"The inner spirit is the bone, and the Taoist wisdom of inaction, tranquility, separation from desire, and self-control are the backbone.
"The perfect self-nature is the heart, guided by the Buddhist wisdom of knowing the mind, seeing one's nature, cultivating blessings and wisdom, benefiting oneself and others, and being compassionate and wise."
This is also a kind of resistance to the rise of Buddhism.
Since the rise of the West and Buddhism is inevitable, why not just develop a Buddhist teaching that is most suitable for the East?
Xuanchen's words were like thunder and thunder, hitting Kinnara's heart in the head, making him suddenly realize, and he immediately said: "Thank you, senior brother, for your advice."
He already had an idea in his mind, which was to combine the strengths of the three religions and create the Heart Sect.
Xin Zong, as the name suggests, is based on the heart, and seeing the nature is the Buddha.
Don’t worship Bodhisattva, don’t worship Buddha.
As long as you are willing, you are a Buddha, and all sentient beings can make a self-transcendence and become a Buddha.
And just when Xuanchen was fooling Kinnara, the Ten Heavenly Lords also came to Hangu Pass, namely Qin Wan, Zhao Jiang, Dong Quan, Yuan Jiao, Jinguang Shengsheng, Sun Liang, Bai Li, Yao Bin, Wang Bian, Zhang Shao had ten people.
The Ten Jue Formation deployed by ten people can be said to be infinitely powerful, only slightly weaker than the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation.
The Six Nations Allied Forces also invited many experts.
The war is about to break out.
