Chapter 300: Learning about the past through conversation, hiding the hidden sect in the clouds
"It's been three days and you still haven't found any trace of him?"

In the hall, Zhang Zhongyou and two other dignified middle-aged men were sitting at the top, with several young monks standing aside.

Chef Jiang stood in the center and said to the first three people with an apologetic look on his face: "I have sent out most of the men and provided them with talismans and magic weapons to facilitate their operations, but I still can't find any trace of Senior Three Years Old." He hesitated to speak.

"If we don't hurry up, I'm afraid we will fall behind the Yu family." Zhang Zhongyou looked serious, "After all, the Yu family is now turning to Yunmen for help. The mysteries of Yunmen are also longed for by the monks who cultivate the void. What if the third son is killed? If they win over, the Yu family's position in the family will really be unshakable!"

Speaking of this, he noticed something strange about Chef Jiang: "What's wrong, Chef, what else did you discover?"

Jiang Chu hesitated for a moment, then said: "Although no trace of the three-year-old senior was found, there is something strange about the seal of the eight-armed demon. I am worried that this demon will really escape."

"The Eight-Armed God and Demon is powerful, but he didn't attract the attention of the sect back then and was sealed by the red lamp who had not yet refined the god. Now even if he escapes from the trap and makes rapid progress, how can he be an opponent?" Zhang Zhongyou didn't care, "You are still You have to put your mind on your third year."

"understood."

The gurgling stream is clear and transparent.

Beside the stream, a stone pavilion suddenly appeared, in which two people sat facing each other.

One is wearing a red robe and a high crown and belt, and the other is wearing a gray robe and long hair.

Master Hongdeng sat opposite Chen Yuan.

There was a stone table placed between the two of them. There was a tea set on the table. The teapot floated up on its own and poured tea for the two of them.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, picked up the tea cup, and said, "Please, this tea is the better one in my memory, and it tastes great."

Master Hongdeng picked up the tea cup in front of him and said with a complex expression: "The mind reflects and turns the void into reality. The so-called reality is all according to your will! Sure enough, this is the power of the void refining level! You actually used a short In just one hundred and fifty-sixty years, you have regained the cultivation of the void? Could it be that you are really the son of destiny? Are you favored by fate? "

Chen Yuan glanced at him and said with a smile: "Heart mapping, the reflected image in the heart, is ultimately the memory, feeling and cognition of the past. I can't conjure up tea that I haven't drunk out of thin air, nor can I show myself There is no taste or smell that I have experienced personally. This is because people cannot imagine things beyond their own knowledge. This is the state of mind."

"Your answer is slightly different from the secret of the mind that I heard in the past." Hongdeng Zhenren frowned, as if thinking, "This mind is the understanding of the Tao."

"That's right, because I have been thinking recently about what Tao is." Chen Yuan exchanged his thoughts and understandings with the Hongdeng Patriarch as if he had really met an old friend. "In our practice, whether it is through the five senses and six thoughts, Heaven and earth, consciousness, Yin, Soul and Yang, and even the Yuan Shen wandering around in the universe, in the final analysis, all belong to oneself and perceive the external world in oneself. This also means that our way is actually related to the external world. Relevant.”

Master Hongdeng said: "To moisten one's heart with external things, and for all things in the world to reflect the Taoist heart, this is what it should be, so what's so strange about it? Even because of different understandings of the world and all things, the same thing will also It will reflect different mental scenes in different people's hearts."

After a pause, he looked at Chen Yuan's slightly surprised look and said with some satisfaction: "That's natural. Don't think that you are the only smart person in the world. I have also gained something!"

"Yes, you can now be considered a monk who has returned to the virtual world, but you can never change without departing from your sect." Chen Yuan suddenly changed the subject, "If someone can control a part of the world and shape everything in the world with his own thoughts and cognition, then... ..." Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully: "The Tao in the hearts of all monks who practice in such a world are actually fragments of the mind of the person who controls the world. What will happen after they finally become Tao? ?”

This is what he truly means.

Ever since he came into contact with Xie Qi Immortal and Yun Ling Immortal, and realized that there might be immortals hiding in the cave world, he has been thinking about the so-called Hedao. What does it mean from the perspective of an immortal?
What is different from ordinary monks is that Chen Yuan not only has the incarnation of a true immortal, he can stand at a higher level to overlook and examine the monks' path to harmony. He has also come face to face with the Fen Nian of Yun Ling Immortal. Although the meeting lasted The information revealed in the short but concise words made Chen Yuan unable to stop thinking.

Why do those immortals not hesitate to destroy a world and spread their own traditions?
After more than 30 years of thinking, he has vaguely found a thread.

Perhaps, it has something to do with the path that the immortals followed when they broke through the combined path.

"If every heaven and earth has the influence of the immortals in the past, then only by jumping out of the monk's cage can you see the path that is not affected. But if you are not affected and do not experience the calamity of union, and you cannot break out of the cage, this is almost A dead end."

For other monks and Chen Yuan in the past, this was a dead end, but for him now, the situation has changed.

However, Master Hongdeng seemed to be shocked by Chen Yuan's words.

After a long while, he said: "What you said is just fabrication and speculation!" He seemed to be explaining, but then shook his head as if to emphasize, "The way of others reflects one's own mind, and in the end I am afraid that even if you have not cultivated to the level of It’s difficult to refine the void, let alone use it to combine with the Tao! After all, even if you are really Dong Xuanzi, haven’t you ever succeeded in combining the Tao in your previous life and turned into ashes in the calamity? Now you are standing at such a height to point fingers.”

After a pause, his tone became meaningful: "The times are different from the past."

"Is it different?" Chen Yuan chuckled, put down the tea cup, and asked: "If you can't use other people's ways to reflect yourself, then how can you contain my calamity and condense a little bit of my Taoist destiny? Woolen cloth?"

Master Hongdeng's expression suddenly changed: "You, you, you... what are you talking about?" He even stood up.

But Chen Yuan raised his hand and pressed lightly on the table, which calmed the body of the red lamp master. Then he raised his hand and grabbed it, and grabbed out strands of strange aura that shone with stars.

"Actually, I noticed it when I met you this time, but I wasn't really sure until you used the magical power of Buzhou Mountain!" Looking at the changing starlight aura on his hand, Chen Yuan raised his head and looked at Hong Leng, who looked ugly, said, "The things I did in the past were said to be done by you, and my body was contaminated with the tribulation aura that I generated when I overcame the tribulation, and my cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time..."

After a pause, he looked directly at the other person: "The tribulation energy can only be collected when I am overcoming the tribulation and for a short period of time afterwards. Although my Hedao tribulation did not deliberately block the news, it can be considered hidden unless it is deliberately planned. People, otherwise it will be impossible to obtain the tribulation energy. Tell me, what do you know? Who is hiding behind it? "

"You have truly admitted your identity! In this way, in terms of rapid progress, who can compare with you?" Master Hongdeng lowered his head slightly and did not answer immediately.

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Don't want to say it? Originally, I thought that it was not easy for you to cultivate, and now there are few contemporaries that I still recognize. I want to leave you some dignity. If you still don't understand, you can't blame me for using it. Some means."

As he said that, he changed the topic: "Actually, you have no choice. Since you have been captured here by me and you have been promoted through my tribulation energy, then you are dead. It will not be difficult for me to find out the truth. You always Don’t you think that people from Wanghai Palace can still come here to rescue you?”

Master Hongdeng was silent for a long time, and then said: "I know the situation of Wanghai Palace very well. It is an empty frame. It seems that it is powerful, but it has been hollowed out for a long time, especially the real masters have long been gone. With the help of The geography and formation, as well as the sect’s treasures, may still be able to compete with you, but once we leave the mountain gate, how can we be your opponent?”

Halfway through, he stopped, was silent for a long time, and sighed: "Forget it, the matter has come to this, just like you said, it is no longer up to me, and it is my destiny to be unable to touch the realm of refining the void. Bar."

While he was speaking, he suddenly spread out his left hand, and mist mixed with stars and rays of light came out of his palm, lingering and spinning in his palm, and finally turned into a ball.Chen Yuan was so close, even if he didn't deliberately explore, he still caught the familiar ripples from the calamity aura——

This is exactly the calamity left behind by his past true form.

The so-called calamity qi is actually a type of heaven and earth profound energy, similar to the earth vein dragon qi that Chen Yuan once collected. In fact, there is tribulation qi not only when going through tribulations, but whenever a great catastrophe comes, tribulation qi arises on its own and can even spread throughout the world. throughout.

It's just that the tribulation monks will become more intense because they are entangled by disasters. Especially when they are fighting against natural disasters with their own strength, the tribulation energy will rise layer by layer, mixed with mysterious powers such as luck and destiny. Completely formed!
However, tribulations come and go very quickly. Whether it is a failure to overcome a tribulation, a person's death, or a disaster, or he ascends in harmony, the tribulation energy will dissipate quickly.

Therefore, if you want to obtain calamity energy, the window period is actually very short, and it is by no means that easy.

"The reason why I was able to obtain your calamity energy was also a coincidence."

Looking at Chen Yuan, Master Hongdeng said slowly: "I didn't intercept this energy. It was left by someone not far away when you were going through the tribulation. It was forged and condensed and then collected into the door. Until more than 100 years ago, , your Dongxuan Sect encountered a catastrophe, and was attacked by the son of luck at that time. The door was in chaos, and many collections were scattered outside. Only then did I get this calamity..."

Chen Yuan's expression changed slightly and he said, "Who knocked on the door?"

"You should have heard of his name. That person's surname is Hua, and his single name is Huan. However, when you were alive, you may have had great luck in this world, and it was difficult for others to stand out. When you failed to overcome the tribulation, Many people have made rapid progress, and Hua Yao is one of them. In just 50 years, he has reached the point of returning to the void..."

Having said this, Master Hongdeng raised his head and looked at Chen Yuan with a strange expression: "And after all, this person has some connection with you."

Chen Yuan originally wanted to ask why this person came to the door. Hearing this question, he said: "I have some impressions of this person, but he is not from the East Coast or Southeast. What is his connection with me?"

"This person is the successor of your fourth disciple Qi Yongye."

Chen Yuan was even more surprised and said: "If he is the descendant of Xiaosi, how can he be admitted to Dongxuan Sect?"

Master Hongdeng continued: "Qi Yongye was seriously injured when he was traveling. During his recovery period, he had some encounters. He met Hua'er, who was just starting out at that time. They had gone through a lot. Hua'ao got Qi Yongye's guidance and solved the hidden dangers in his practice. Only by eliminating them one by one can we establish the possibility of immortality. You must know that the method this person first practiced can be said to be a side sect among side sects. Not to mention the chance of immortality, if it continues, the physical body will collapse in just a few years, so he follows the example of his teacher. Serve Qi Yongye with courtesy. This happened before you went through the tribulation, but I guess you didn’t bother much."

"After several disciples have completed their studies, they have all left the profession. Why do you need me to ask more questions?" Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and stopped asking questions. He simply said: "Just tell me, why did he repay kindness with enmity in the end?"

Hearing the impatience in Chen Yuan's words, Master Hongdeng immediately became more honest and said: "This person received Qi Yongye's guidance and practiced until he reached the realm of fake elixirs. However, the subsequent skills were gone and he became thousands of people." After all the hard work, I found your disciple and wanted to learn the following parts. However, Qi Yongye did not dare to teach it, saying that it was a forbidden method in the sect. He needed Hua Yao to formally become a disciple of the sect and enter the Dongxuan Sect before he could learn the following parts. .”

Chen Yuan nodded and said: "Xiaosi is the most rigid person and has the most rules. Xiaosi abides by many of the rules set by my eldest disciple, including the rule that inner sect skills should not be taught lightly. He can make exceptions. When I teach the outer sect the methods, I think I attach great importance to that Hua Huan."

"That's it. If this person can enter your cave, it will be another seed of luck! But this person doesn't know who has deceived him. He actually thinks that Qi Yongye is making things difficult for him, thinking that he is forcing him to betray his mentor. He hated Qi Yongye and Dongxuan Sect, and made a 20-year agreement, saying that as long as he didn't die, he would seek justice."

Chen Yuan frowned: "It's just such a small thing that makes you hate me?"

Master Bingdeng continued: "Later, when you passed through the tribulation and fell, the gate was in chaos. This person happened to arrive, and after a chance, his cultivation level increased greatly, and he almost broke through your mountain gate. In the end, it was thanks to your two disciples that they broke through. Kankan managed to save his foundation, but the boy made a 200-year agreement, saying that he would eventually seek justice. However, Dongxuan Sect has grown and grown in recent years, and is about to become the top on the East Coast. You came back after the disaster, and the 200 After a year's appointment, it should be Hua Huan's death."

"Interesting, what do you mean? After my fall, many people rose up?" Seeing that the other party was still waiting to say more, Chen Yuan shook his head, "However, I am not interested in knowing anything that has nothing to do with Dongxuan Sect, let alone you. Don’t think that this incident can divert the focus.”

He narrowed his eyes and asked again: "Even if you got the tribulation energy by chance, how could you use it to usurp...my status?"

The red lamp master was stunned for a moment, then looked horrified: "Did you see that?"

"If it were in the past, maybe I wouldn't be able to tell, but now I'm very sensitive to it." Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with light, "Occupy my story, gather my tribulation energy, and evolve magical powers similar to mine, then in the end One step, of course, is to climb the same steps as me until we reach the right path! Where did you get such a weird method?"

Red Lantern was silent again, but before Chen Yuan could urge him, he spit out a name: "Yunmen."

"Yunmen?" Chen Yuan frowned, this was a relatively unfamiliar name.

"This is a hidden sect. After your death, Dongxu once faced a catastrophe. It was the Yun Sect that turned the tide after it appeared." When Hong Deng mentioned this name, his expression was particularly solemn. He raised his finger and pointed to the sky, " Yunmen is located in the sky, and there is a Yun Zun sitting in it. Every year on the seventh day of March, a forum will be opened to give lectures..."

He pointed to the center of his eyebrows again: "You can reach the destination by using the Yin God and the Yang God to leave the body and wander around. My method of using Qi to seize the opportunity was exactly what I understood when listening to his lectures. That Yun Zun is very knowledgeable. , profound and inscrutable, and what he talks about is all about the fundamental laws of heaven and earth. Everyone’s background, inheritance, orthodoxy, and even their pursuits are different, so they will have different perceptions!”

"Oh? Insights that vary from person to person? The sect that appeared after my death?" Chen Yuan was about to ask in detail, but his expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly raised his hand, sealing him completely in the fear of Hongdeng Master, He put it into his sleeves and turned around.

Behind him, there were two more people.

One is a young man dressed in white, and the other is a stern man wearing deep blue clothes.

"Your Excellency, you made it easy for me to find you." The young man in white smiled slightly and started to leave, but was stopped by the stern man.

The man said coldly: "There is an aura here that turns emptiness into reality. I'm afraid this person is really practicing emptiness. Young Master, it's better not to get close."

"Refining the void? It doesn't matter." The young man in white didn't take it seriously. He smiled to himself and said to Chen Yuan: "Your Excellency can practice the practice of practicing the void, which shows your ability. Are you willing to join me as a protector in Yunmen?"

Cloud Gate?

Such a coincidence! ?

Chen Yuan frowned, suddenly understanding Hua Yao somewhat.

　I don’t have to rush to finish the manuscript, and I’m much more relaxed. It’s just that it’s too late to update every day. Why don’t you get up and read it the next day...
