"I didn't expect anyone to arrive before us."
"This fellow Taoist is a bit unfamiliar."
The two men who walked into the Taoist temple stared at Jiang Changsheng and said that their temperaments were completely different. The man in black had eyes full of provocation, while the man in white had eyes full of curiosity.
Jiang Changsheng cupped his hands and said, "I, Changsheng, have met two fellow Taoists."
The man in white returned the gift and said, "My name is Shaohao, and I have met fellow Taoist Changsheng."
Shaohao?
Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. Isn't this the son of the Yellow Emperor in ancient China?
Still the eldest son!
The man in black hummed: "My name is Xingtian!"
Xingtian?
This name was so popular that Jiang Changsheng became very interested in them.
Could it be that ancient Chinese myths were not fabricated, or were they legends left behind by myths themselves?
Shaohao smiled and said, "Let's sit down and chat first. Xingtian and I also met on the road."
Jiang Changsheng nodded and sat on the futon on the right. Shaohao sat in the middle without hesitation, and Xing Tian sat on the left.
He began to listen quietly to the two chatting.
Shaohao and Xingtian came from two different tribes. Shaohao was the son of Huangdi, and Xingtian was a soldier of Emperor Yan. The two tribes were preparing to unite, so the two became friends. After meeting along the way, they came together to listen to the sermon.
Listening to their conversation, the tribe was larger than the tribes Jiang Changsheng knew, and even larger than the Yun Dynasty in the Kunlun Realm, but it did not have the structure of imperial power.
Jiang Changsheng heard them mention many place names, such as the Earthly Immortal World, Dongsheng Shenzhou, Beidou Immortal Territory, Western Heaven Territory Sea, etc. Many place names had never appeared in the myths and legends of previous lives.
"Where did Taoist Taoist Immortal come from? How could he come to listen to Ksitigarbha? This is not simple."
Xing Tian suddenly looked at Jiang Changsheng, his tone was intriguing, and his eyes were extremely aggressive.
Jiang Changsheng replied: "It's all just chance."
Although he was just a Taoist disciple, he still patiently communicated with other listeners because he was so real. Both Xiao and Xianzi could remember him, which means that others can too. If they can form a good relationship, they may have good luck in the future. .
"Hahaha, we are all here by fate, and we are all of the same kind. In the future, I would like to invite you two to go to our tribe to drink Emperor Hong Immortal Wine together."
Shaohao smiled enthusiastically, and while speaking, he reached out and patted Jiang Changsheng on the shoulder.
Xing Tian curled his lips and said, "Young Patriarch, you are so generous. You invited me with Dihong Immortal Wine when we first met. It seems that Huangdi is really indulgent towards you."
"Don't Emperor Yan think highly of you? Even the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven is entrusted to you."
Shaohao shook his head and laughed, and the two began to bicker.
Jiang Changsheng found it interesting that the two of them actually felt like brothers. Although Xing Tian spoke irritably, Shaohao was obviously the dominant one.
He suddenly remembered a legend that Xing Tian competed with the Yellow Emperor for the position of Emperor of Heaven. If the legend was true, wouldn't Shaohao, the son of the Yellow Emperor, have to turn against Xing Tian?
He just thought about it without pointing it out. After all, he did not belong to this era. He did not want to interfere in anything of this era, he just wanted to become stronger.
after awhile.
A figure appeared out of thin air in front of the three of them and sat down on the futon.
This is a thin man wearing a Taoist robe. His face looks about forty years old, with sunken eyes and deep eyes, giving people a gloomy feeling.
Is this the Great Master Ksitigarbha?
When Jiang Changsheng heard the name Ksitigarbha before, he first thought of Ksitigarbha, but the image of Ksitigarbha was completely different from that of Ksitigarbha.
"Meet the Great Lord Ksitigarbha!"
Shaohao and Xing Tian saluted together. Jiang Changsheng responded quickly and saluted together without missing a beat.
Master Ksitigarbha glanced at the three of them, his eyes fell on Jiang Changsheng, and said: "I practice the way of cause and effect, but there are so few causes and effects on my body. Destined person, why are you here?"
Shaohao and Xingtian both looked at Jiang Changsheng.
Facing the gaze of Master Ksitigarbha, Jiang Changsheng said something strangely: "I came here to become stronger. I just want to live forever."
After saying that, he felt a little regretful. He should have said it more beautifully, lest the Taoist priest think it was tacky.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha nodded and began to preach without asking any further questions.
What he is talking about is not the way of cause and effect, but the way of reincarnation!
This made Jiang Changsheng both surprised and somewhat hopeful.
He can finally start to practice other avenues. Although he has not yet achieved great success in the path of cause and effect, it may be more helpful to understand other avenues.
Reincarnation is inherently related to cause and effect, and the two combine to support each other.
"The way of heaven leads to the underworld, the way of heaven reincarnates, the body is destroyed, the soul remains, the reincarnation is endless, the nine underworlds last forever..."
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha's voice pulled Jiang Changsheng into a state of enlightenment.
He seemed to be in the Netherworld, with darkness in all directions, and countless souls wandering around. Some souls were in pain, some were happy, and some were confused.
This Nine Netherworld is full of cause and effect, and there is a deeper force maintaining it among the cause and effect.
The power of reincarnation!
Perhaps because of his achievements in the path of cause and effect, Jiang Changsheng's understanding of the path of reincarnation was easy, at least easier than understanding the path of cause and effect.
The sermon continued, and Jiang Changsheng was immersed in it, forgetting things other than the sermon.
The sermon was longer and richer than he expected.
During the process, Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha also imparted a magical power.
Ksitigarbha Reincarnation Palm!
This palm is so powerful that it can kill strong enemies. If it cannot be directly suppressed, it will also dispel the rules of reincarnation in the opponent's soul, making it impossible to reincarnate forever, and even unable to retain the characteristics of the soul. In other words, once the physical body is destroyed, the soul will directly appear. , even mortal spirits can directly attack the soul body.
What a domineering magical power!
It also comes with special effects!
It has the same effect as the banishment magical power taught by Xiao and Xianzi, but it is stronger, mainly because it can carry out direct attacks.
Time passes quickly.
When Jiang Changsheng's consciousness slowly came to his senses, Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha's voice disappeared at some point.
He opened his eyes, and what came into view was the figure of Ksitigarbha.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha was staring at him with indifferent eyes.
Jiang Changsheng subconsciously looked to his side. Shaohao and Xingtian were still awake. Shaohao had a sad look on his face, while Xingtian looked excited.
Jiang Changsheng couldn't tell whether he had better qualifications or whether he was inferior to Shaohao and the other two.
"Your reincarnation sign is very long, and there are two very long signs."
Master Ksitigarbha stared at Jiang Changsheng and said coldly.
Jiang Changsheng was confused and asked: "Senior, what do you mean by this?"
Two very long periods of time, does it mean two periods of life?
This life is indeed long, but in his previous life he died young.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha replied: "Causation and reincarnation are difficult to separate. Cause and effect creates reincarnation, but reincarnation is more oppressive. You are only in the Taiyi realm, and you should not practice both realms, but you are very smart and choose to complement each other. Two ways."
"Thank you for the compliment, senior. It's mainly because senior's Taoism is so great, which makes me deeply impressed."
Jiang Changsheng said with sincere emotion that Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha may seem inhumane, but his sermons are rich in content and cover a wide range of topics. Putting aside the path of reincarnation, it will also be helpful to his future practice.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha said: "You seem a little confused. If you grasp this cause and effect, feel free to ask."
Hearing this, Jiang Changsheng was delighted, thanked him quickly, and then revealed his confusion in practice.
"Your technique is very simple, very pure, but also full of tolerance. I have never heard of it. Your confusion is actually very simple. Because it is too tolerant, it has no direction."
Master Ksitigarbha frowned and said, obviously shocked by the natural skills of Taoism. Although Jiang Changsheng only talked about the characteristics of the skills, it was enough to shock him.
Jiang Changsheng thinks it makes sense. The previous chapters of Taoist Natural Skills all had directions, guiding him where to practice, but now there is no direction. He practices the path of cause and effect just because the path of cause and effect is broad enough to keep practicing and help him change. powerful.
Master Ksitigarbha said: "A long time ago, Taoism had not appeared, let alone immortality. How do you think the being who created the immortality and Taoism opened up his own realm?"
Jiang Changsheng fell into thinking.
create?
"All unknown stages start from imagination. Whatever power you want to achieve, just work hard to achieve it, instead of waiting to reach a certain state and then obtain the power of that state. The state is the practitioner's definition of power. , does not exist independently.”
The words of Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha made Jiang Changsheng suddenly enlightened.
In his previous life, he was a game creator, and he dabbled in countless fantasy contents. Let him make up realms and imagine power, which is what he is good at.
After experiencing so many things in this life, his horizons have long been broadened, and the power he can imagine is naturally greater and more incredible.
Jiang Changsheng can combine his own strength to imagine how strong the next realm will be, and then work hard towards this goal.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha then said: "Such an inclusive and profound practice may be compatible with the Great Dao, which is its goal."
Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, "Thank you, senior, for your guidance."
Master Ksitigarbha shook his head and looked at Jiang Changsheng with a profound look.
"The reason why I point you is because I see what you are carrying. It turns out that everything has an end, but the end is not the end, just like this reincarnation."
The Great Master Ksitigarbha said leisurely, which made Jiang Changsheng feel shocked.
Could it be that the Great Master Ksitigarbha saw the destiny of immortality in him?
Xiao and Xianzi seemed to have seen through this.
In the Immortal Way, there are so many powerful people who can glimpse the future of the Immortal Way, but cannot change it. Is there really an unchangeable destiny and calamity in the world?
"Don't worry, just follow your own path."
Master Ksitigarbha said calmly, but his expression was no longer so serious, but more kind.
Jiang Changsheng was touched by the change in his expression, and he couldn't help but ask: "Senior, do you know the Master of Kunlun, Patriarch Xuanti, Xiaohe Xianzi?"
These three were the masters of the dojos that he had heard from before.
Ksitigarbha Ksitigarbha replied: "Of course I have heard of them, but they are too far away. Some are high in the sky and are not affected by cause and effect, and some have passed away in the years."
Someone died?
Jiang Changsheng frowned, but this time he didn't ask who it was.
No matter who it is, looking at it from his point in time, he is already dead.
At this moment, Shaohao and Xingtian next to them were cut off from the rules of reincarnation, indicating that they were about to wake up.
Jiang Changsheng just glanced at them. When he turned his eyes, Master Ksitigarbha was no longer there.
