Faced with Taiqing Laozi's rhetorical question, Yan from the Yao tribe of the human race didn't do what he thought at all, nor did he show off his shallow knowledge. He directly raised his hand and bowed and said: "Please give me some advice from Heavenly Lord!"
I have always looked calm, and it remains the same now. He glanced at Yan lightly, and then said: "Those who practice the Immortal Way are nothing more than refining the Qi, refining the Qi to become the Spirit, refining the Spirit to return to the void, and refining the void to combine with the Dao. These four steps.”
"The first two focus on foundation and accumulation, and are the transformation of immortals and mortals, laying the foundation for the great road. The latter two are mainly about enlightenment, the path to eternal transcendence, and the pursuit of the principles of heaven and earth."
As he spoke, I paused for a moment, glanced at the two people who were listening attentively, and then continued: "After being an immortal, you should discard the false and keep the true, and establish your own path with a clear mind. This way you can become a true immortal."
"After a true immortal, he has supernatural power over the heaven and earth, combines the outer heaven and earth to strengthen the inner spirit, and then uses his own way to prove the way of heaven. The spirit makes it clear and the mystery is mysterious. He is a mysterious immortal."
"After the Xuanxian comes again, the three flowers gather at the top, the five qi move towards the origin, and the true meaning of Tao is understood. The true spirit is entrusted to the Tao from then on. From then on, the golden nature is immortal. It will be born and destroyed for the eternity and the earth, and a bit of true spirit will never be destroyed. This is the Golden Immortal. ."
"Those who have attained the Tao Golden Immortal can open a path in heaven and earth and control the Tao and fruits of heaven and earth. Until the Tao exists, the body will exist. Even if the heaven and earth are nirvana, they can also find the Tao and return. This is the Taiyi Golden Immortal."
"After Taiyi, there is Da Luo. Da Luo is the end of Dao. It is immeasurable and encompasses all images. It can be the sky, the earth, or a world."
After listening to Taiqing Laozi's words, Yan had a clear understanding of the path after Tianxian for the first time, but then, a question came to his mind.
"Tianzun, Daluo is the end of the road. How can a saint understand it?"
Hearing Yan's question, I didn't speak immediately this time. A rare gleam flashed in his eyes, and then he pondered for a while and said:
"Da Luo Wuliang is the end of the Tao, and there is no end. It can be a small world, or it can become a big world. The sage is Da Luo Hunyuan Golden Immortal. He can create a world of his own, but he does not leave his sect."
"That's it!" Yan nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.
"So, can you understand the secret of the superior method?" I glanced at Yan and asked calmly.
"Thank you Tianzun for clarifying the confusion! This junior has roughly understood." Yan saluted me sincerely and said.
I didn't speak when I heard this, I just looked at Yan calmly, waiting for him to say something.
Under the gaze of Laozi, Yan thought for a while, and then slowly said: "The best way is not to be attached to external things, but to seek the way within yourself."
"Use your own power to open a path, and then preach to all sentient beings in the world. Although all sentient beings who receive the Dao all follow their own path, they all have their own skills and are not the same. It can be said that they follow their own path and expand their path."
"In the end, as more and more people follow the path, the branches and leaves will flourish, and the path will prosper. If there is a disaster or calamity for those who opened the path, there is no need to look outside, they can find the path and return."
"That's right! This is the best way for everyone in the world to survive the calamity. As for seizing the body, for us, it's just a by-pass method. You don't have to worry."
Taiqing Laozi glanced at Yan meaningfully. Although his expression did not change much, Yan could clearly feel the contempt and disapproval in it.
Obviously, although I appreciate Yan's caution, I also look down upon Yan's dark psychology just now. After all, in my opinion, if a powerful person really wants to seize the body, there is no need to go to so much trouble.
"Tianzun is right! This junior has little knowledge and made wild guesses, but he has let down the kindness of his seniors. I'm really sorry!" Seeing this, Yan was afraid that his previous behavior would cause dissatisfaction to me, so he hurriedly apologized.
I glanced at Yan lightly and said nothing.
Seeing this, Yan knew that the other party did not want to talk more about this matter, so he immediately changed the subject and said: "Tianzun, I have one more question, what is the belief in incense? Can it help us practice?"
"The great road is mixed into one, but it is internally divided into yin and yang. The three talents stand in the same tripod. The four images turn into the eight trigrams, and the five elements are combined into nine palaces. In this way, everything is renewed, and the world is completed."
"Therefore, Tao has three talents to calm heaven, earth, and people. The belief in incense belongs to the human Tao. It is a wish for all living beings in the world and contains the destiny and will of the human Tao."
"However, all things in the world have both yin and yang, and the same is true for the belief in incense. It is formed by the seven emotions and six desires of all living beings. It is mixed and impure, and the five poisons are deeply hidden. It can be said to be a severe poison in human nature."
When I said this, I glanced at Yan Hesheng, and then continued: "Therefore, for us, the belief in incense can be a help, or it can be a poison."
"If used well, we can get blessings from the luck of the human realm and help us practice. Even further, we can also use it to leverage the power of the human realm, thereby affecting the operation of the heavenly realm and controlling the authority of heaven and earth."
As he said that, I glanced at the silent Sheng with his calm eyes.
"In addition, there are hidden human merits in the incense belief. With the help of these merits, we can alleviate the misfortune of practitioners like us to a certain extent."
"Of course, if you accidentally become infected by the five poisons of living beings in the incense, it can also make the immortals and gods go crazy, and thousands of hard work will be scattered in the wind."
"However, the poison of the seven emotions bred in the incense belief is not completely useless. It can, to a certain extent, alleviate and offset the invasion of heaven when we are enlightened."
"Let me keep my mind active as I wander along the great road, like a guidepost, to prevent me from becoming numb and dead in the invasion of heaven, or even becoming enlightened."
After listening to Lao Tzu's words and combining it with the memories of his previous life, Yan finally understood why the saints in the heavens who were supposed to have no desires and desires still made every possible effort to establish a great religion and preach to all sentient beings.
In the past life, some people said that the battle between saints was about saving face, but in the current Yan's view, there may be this reason, but it is definitely more about taking a further step on the road.
They preach to sentient beings in order to further strengthen their own path. The purpose of collecting religious incense from all living beings is to strengthen one's own path and steal more luck and power from heaven and earth.
In Yan's view, the great religion established by the saint is like a great torrent that is independent and beyond the world. The disciples and disciples who follow its path are like tributaries and waves, constantly broadening and strengthening the torrent.
Finally, with the help of the power of humanity, we can achieve the purpose of stealing the entire world, or using this to break the constraints of the world's heavenly law.
After that, as I and Yan exchanged questions and answers, time passed slowly until it got dark.
"Okay! It's getting late. You two can leave." I stopped talking and waved to Yan He Sheng.
After hearing what I said, Yan Yi pursed his lips, then bowed deeply to me, and said respectfully: "Thank you, senior, for clarifying my doubts! I will take my leave today."
"The fate between you and me has ended. Please don't come here again." I obviously heard the subtle thoughts in Yan's words and directly cut off his delusions.
Yan opened his mouth when he heard the words and wanted to fight for it again. But I had already closed my eyes and waved my hand indifferently: "Go!"
"Yes! Tianzun!" Seeing this, Yan did not dare to force himself anymore, and had no choice but to slowly leave with Sheng.
