I am the junior fellow student of Sanqing in the prehistoric times

Chapter 18 Yuan Qing asked: The way of Taiyi?

Another 3 years have passed, and Yuan Qing has been living a relatively leisurely life recently, with nothing to do, so he opened another cave in Kunlun Mountain and perfected the "Yuan Qing Immortal Method" inside.

As for Master Hongjun, Yuan Qing didn't know what the master was doing. The master left 3 years ago without saying goodbye, with a very sad look on his face, which made Yuan Qing worry about his boss for a while.

He didn't feel relieved until he heard the gossip that the ancestor Hongjun was a guest of the Qilin clan, full of energy and even more majestic.

On this day, Yuan Qing was stumped by a problem. Immortal Dao was now lacking, and his master was not around, so he could only think on his own.

The problem is that although the practice of immortality and qi training are the foundation, he discovered that no matter what, he couldn't escape the qi of the five elements.

Although the five elements are the essence of heaven and earth, occupying a very basic and special position among all kinds of qi, there are also gods and demons who do not have the innate qi of the five elements, and can also prove the Daluo realm.

For example, the ancestor of Yin and Yang, because the Qi of Yin and Yang is slightly higher than the Qi of the Five Elements, he is usually looked down upon the most by the ancestor of the Five Elements. He has never absorbed the Qi of the Five Elements, but he still reached the pinnacle of Daluo. Together with Elder Hongjun Ancestor level.

Why is this?

Why does his celestial method need the energy of the five elements?
Yuanqing's level is still relatively low, and he has little knowledge. Although there are many Pangu inheritance memories, Pangu was born in the realm of Hunyuan Wujiluo, and there are really very few descriptions about the realm of Taiyi.

Therefore, this answer can only be thought of by oneself.

"Oh, why is this cultivation so difficult!"

It is indeed more difficult to open a path than to inherit it, but it is obviously more fun.

Yuan Qing fell by the side of a pond and broke a willow branch casually, feeling deeply moved.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Lao Tzu happened to be out of the customs, and he was very happy because he had succeeded in turning to the cultivation of immortality first, and he was very lucky, and he also came to the pool here.

Occasionally I heard Yuan Qing talking to himself.

I thought to myself, is there anything easy about cultivating Taoism?

On the other hand, Yuan Qing was thinking wholeheartedly, here is Kunlun Mountain again, so she didn't notice Lao Tzu's arrival.

Lao Tzu thought for a while, then stepped up, stroked his beard, and said, "I don't know what trouble my brother has encountered, can you tell me about it?"

"Huh?" Yuan Qing focused his eyes and looked at Lao Tzu in surprise.

"Eldest brother, have you left the customs?"

"Yes!" I said with a smile. He was indeed in a good mood at the moment. After turning to the path of immortality, he felt a sense of freedom and ease lingering in his heart. The tightness of the past disappeared, as if he had taken off his shackles.

My mood has become much calmer. Now when I read the four words "Pure and Inaction", I have a different feeling.

Although my affinity for the law is a little weaker and my luck is a little less, I can still accept it.

Compared to the pretentious way of gods and demons, the free-spirited way of immortality is obviously more favored by me.He had known that the Immortal Way would cultivate the mind, but after cultivating the mind, it was so comfortable. He had already practiced the Immortal Way.

For talented gods and demons like them, the relaxation of the mind is more comfortable!

I couldn't help but blame Hongjun in my heart. He didn't talk about these advantages when he preached. He only talked about the slow progress of the immortal way, the lack of luck in the immortal way, and the shortcomings of the immortal way. This made him instinctively reject the immortal way. How to practice?
In fact, Hongjun can't be blamed for this. He just wanted Sanqing to understand his shortcomings and accept them willingly, instead of being deceived into accepting them. Otherwise, the friendship would no longer be there but they would become enemies, which would be a bad thing.

Therefore, Hongjun made the shortcomings clear and clear, and the advantages were far inferior to the way of gods and demons, so he talked less about it, making it impossible for Sanqing to be able to do it at this time if it hadn't been for Yuan Qing's enlightenment. Turn to the path of immortality.

Thinking of this, Lao Tzu suddenly remembered Yuan Qing's enlightenment help, and his expression became serious again, as if the problem of the younger brother was my problem, which made Yuan Qing feel uncomfortable.

Yuan Qing cupped his hands and asked anxiously: "Elder brother, is there something wrong?"

"I'm fine, but it seems that you have something to do. It's difficult to cultivate the Tao. Maybe if you tell me something, we can discuss it and we can gain something."

Although I no longer have that condescending attitude, I am still proud of myself. He says he is polite, but what he actually thinks is that his junior brother was born too young, so if there is any difficult problem, he is too clear to solve it easily.

Yuan Qing has never cared about the attitude of others. Someone said in the past life that it doesn't matter who he plays with, since no one has money anyway.

In this life, I have experienced such a feeling, no matter how proud and noble others are, they cannot surpass him.

Therefore, Yuan Qing pays more attention to character than identity when talking with people.

Although Lao Tzu is a bit proud of others, he is generally good-natured and knowledgeable. Although he is a little selfish, he can bear it.

Therefore, Yuan Qing said softly: "Junior brother does have some questions. I created a method called "Yuan Qing Immortal Method", which is based on Qi training!"

Afterwards, Yuan Qing told Laozi what he was thinking in detail, and Laozi's expression became more and more serious.

This magical method is extraordinary!
After telling the story, Yuan Qing said distressedly: "The early practice of this method is extremely smooth and simple, but it consumes some time and resources. But after reaching a certain level, the five qi are needed to be perfected to strengthen the Tao body, otherwise you will not be promoted to Da Luo. .”

"But now there are many gods and demons in Honghuang, who can easily reach the realm of Da Luo without relying on the energy of the five elements, so the younger brother is a little confused. Is there any flaw in the immortal method I created, which makes the way of practice narrow ?”

After finishing speaking, Yuan Qing looked at Lao Tzu expectantly.

Lao Tzu: .
This question is beyond the scope!

Seeing that I seemed to be thinking, Yuan Qing thought that I had an idea, so he added a few more words by the way: "In addition to the perfection of the five elements of Qi, I speculate that it is actually necessary to complete the three aspects of Jing, Qi, Shen, in order to be promoted to the realm of Da Luo."

"And the Yin-Yang Patriarch obtained the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit only by relying on Yin-Yang Qi, and directly proved Da Luo."

"Zhenjun Ziwei only relied on Ziwei Yuan Shen to obtain the throne of Xingjun, the Dao of Xingchen, and attained the status of Daluo Dao Zun."

"The ancestral dragon manifested the supernatural powers of the water path and proved the realm of Daluo only by relying on the strength of its physical body."

"It seems that the three qi of essence, energy and spirit do not have to be perfect to achieve enlightenment, but my technique requires the concentration of the five elements of energy and the perfection of essence, energy and spirit to achieve enlightenment."

"Elder brother, was I wrong?"

Looking at Yuan Qing's sincere and unpretentious eyes, I swallowed these three words "I don't know" back in my stomach.

The junior brother asked sincerely, as a senior brother, how could he not be ignorant?

So, Lao Tzu said: "Senior brother, I already have some ideas. I'll go into retreat and I'll give the answer someday!"

Later, I returned to the cave where I had just retreated, and fell into enlightenment again with a full heart.

Of course, Yuan Qing did not place all his hopes on me, and he himself was slowly thinking about the answer to this question.
