Book of the Heavens

Chapter 352
"What exactly does mind mean?" Yang Hao was taken aback when he heard this.

He really doesn't know what the essence of the mind is. He once thought it was the soul, but later found out that it is not.I used to think it was mentality, but with the continuous improvement of cultivation base, it also proved that "mind" is not "mentality", but another more essential thing.

Because the fairy gods can achieve a perfect mentality, and the mentality of the Daluo Jinxian can be close to perfection, but their spiritual power is still only in the initial stage.

The theory and the state of mind of the Hunyuan Saints are all flawless, and nothing can interfere with their state of mind.

But in fact, the spiritual power of most saints is not very strong—just like those saints in the infinite kingdom of God, they only cultivate supernatural powers, and their spiritual power is at a very primitive stage, not even as good as Yang Hao .

Because of this, he was instantly killed by the monster with one blow, and he didn't even have the power to fight back.

It's not that those people don't want to practice, but that the mind is so mysterious that there is no way to practice it.Otherwise, how could someone not cultivate in a direction that can improve the strength of a saint?

Yang Hao has seen that the world with the strongest spiritual power is the world of Journey to the West and Conquering Demons, but even the people there have limited spiritual cultivation.

Perhaps, the minds of some of them are already comparable to saints, but if they are used to practice the "Sun God Art", even Fuxi's mind cultivation base cannot meet the conditions, otherwise he would have proved the Tao with strength and reached the realm of Pangu up.

"Spirit, of course, refers to the 'people's mind', don't you understand such a simple truth?" Patriarch Bodhi said.

Yang Hao was taken aback again when he heard this.

The mind refers to the human heart, refers to the thinking of a person, of course he understands this truth.But just like one plus one equals two, there are many people who know the result, but few people can explain why it is "equal to two", and even fewer people can understand this principle.

"Is this simple?" Yang Hao asked back.

As a result, Patriarch Bodhi also asked, "Is this complicated?"

"Isn't this complicated?"

The two played charades, which made Sun Wukong, Wutian, and Zhen Yuanzi all look confused.

However, Yang Hao and Patriarch Bodhi did not mean to stop. The former said: "It is indeed simple to say that a pure heart is equal to a human heart, but the human heart itself is so complicated that there is no need to add it. I know a man named 'Zero' He said that there is only one thing in this world that cannot be thoroughly studied by science, and that is the human heart, even the heart of a three-year-old child will not be fully studied.”

"I also know a military adviser named Zhuge Liang. He predicts things like a god. Many people think that he can see through people's hearts, but he himself said that what he can see through is just appearances, which is not even one ten-thousandth of people's hearts."

Hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi smiled and did not speak.

"Even with the 'Mind Reading Technique', what you can see is only the mind, not the mind itself." Yang Hao continued: "So, we can't study this topic, and we can't create a truly efficient spiritual practice method, and we can't practice it. "

Libraries naturally have spiritual cultivation methods, and "Sun God Art" has "spiritual system" practitioners.

But the essence of the power of the mind, the people in the library can't analyze it, and the efficiency of the mind cultivation methods owned by the library is not high. So far, the fastest progress in cultivation is Shen Ning, who can only cultivate the mind. Most of the others stay in "" A force of chaos" level.

In other words, the strength of most people's minds can only support a very weak force of chaos.

Even Yang Hao has only cultivated three ways so far, and there is no more.

Everyone in the library did not put the direction of cultivation on the power of the mind, but on tempering a stronger body and controlling the power of chaos with strength-this is a second-best choice, but it is also the only one at present. Choose, because the power of the mind can't handle it.

At least in a short period of time, there is no way to improve.

"Why do you have to study thoroughly?" Patriarch Bodhi said.

Hearing this, Yang Hao asked in confusion, "If you don't understand, how can you practice?"

The prerequisite for creating a practice is to understand the "dharma", otherwise you will not even understand the principles, and it is very dangerous to start a practice indiscriminately.

You know, practicing martial arts and Taoism indiscriminately will kill people.

"Why do you need to use other things to locate the spiritual practice? It is indeed dangerous to exercise physical power randomly, but the characteristic of spiritual power is absolute control. How can something that is completely your own be dangerous?" Patriarch Bodhi shook his head. Said: "Don't think about those useless things, and don't care about others. The 'mind' you need to understand is only your own. Your thinking is the whole of your own mind. Isn't it enough to understand?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Hao was stunned immediately.

It seems that I, Zhuge Liang and the others have made a mistake all along?

The cultivation method of the mind seems to be a false proposition in itself: the human heart is known for being complex and changeable, and it is an irregular thing. If you want to forcefully find the law to create the spiritual method, isn't this just a dream?
In addition, although people's thinking is complicated, there is no secret to each person.

Theoretically, everyone is the "omniscient" of their own mind, and can easily create their own spiritual cultivation method for their own mind.

"It turns out that there is no method, but the highest method of spiritual cultivation." Yang Hao suddenly said.

Hearing this, Wutian, Monkey King, and Zhen Yuanzi all frowned into the word "Chuan".

If they are modern people, they will definitely say: Mom sells batches, what is this nonsense?

But there was a smile on the face of Patriarch Bodhi, and he said: "There is nothing wrong. There is no way to do it. It is the highest way. If a person swings a knife [-] times a day, he will not be shaken by thunder or wind and rain, and he firmly believes that his knife can split the world." , then one day sooner or later, his spiritual power will bloom to the extreme, splitting the world."

"If a person firmly believes that he can't, then he really can't, and he will fall into mediocrity from then on."

"Every genius has a heart that is not willing to be ordinary, and he is determined in his heart that he can do it, and then he finally becomes a genius. And the mediocre, in the depths of his heart, sentenced himself to the death sentence of 'no way', thus losing the opportunity to become a genius .”

"You think you can't touch your heart, but in fact, everything you have is cultivating your heart."

"The heart is there, the person is there, the soul is gone, and the person is completely dead!"

"Yes, I should have understood this truth long ago." Yang Hao said: "Even if you don't use the Psychic System, practitioners of the 'Sun God Art' will still have spiritual power. The reason why Saitama's cultivation method can reduce the time for practicing the Sun God Art , it’s not a matter of skills, but the improvement of the soul, which drives the overall cultivation.”

Whether it is martial arts internal skills or Saint Seiya Cosmos, in essence, it is all about cultivating the mind.

Thousands of systems lead to the same goal by different routes, where is the same goal?
It is man himself.

Because when people go to practice, what they cultivate in the end is the human heart. The most important thing in practice is not cultivation and strength, but the heart that carries those strengths.

"If my guess is correct, Patriarch Bodhi, even with the cultivation base of a celestial being, you can deal with quasi-sages, right?" Yang Hao looked at Patriarch Bodhi and said.

He used the honorific title of "You", not the usual polite way of opening the library to do business. That kind of attitude dates back to the Three Kingdoms world. After he got used to his own identity, he never used it again. Let him be polite.

This "you" is respected from the bottom of my heart. Although it is only a dimensional figure, the cultivation level of Patriarch Subhuti is terrifyingly high.

Especially the cognition of the soul is still higher than Fuxi who has incomplete memory.

"It's hard to say if it's too strong. It's quite easy to take care of this monkey head and this devil." Patriarch Bodhi smiled.

Hearing this, Monkey King scratched his head, a little uncomfortable.

It has been 300 years since becoming a Buddha, and no one has called himself that.

As for Wutian, he blushed, feeling that it would be too embarrassing not to respond, but he also felt that there was no point in arguing forcibly.Moreover, the feeling that Patriarch Bodhi gave him was a little unfathomable, which made him uncertain and dared not provoke him easily.

Although he was on the same front, the other party would not do anything to him, but if he was taught a lesson, it would be embarrassing.

"Don't be unconvinced, you don't understand my realm at all." Seeing Wutian's expression, Patriarch Bodhi said with a smile: "You are still cultivating holiness, even if you succeed, it is only sanctification, and because there is no primordial purple Qi, cannot be cultivated. But I skipped that step and touched the 'origin', once cultivated, I will jump out of the avenue and reach a realm that you can't imagine."

Hearing this, Wutian was silent.

He had heard from Yang Hao that the Origin Realm could deal with giant beasts, which undoubtedly showed that it was stronger than a saint.

"Have you really touched the source?" Yang Hao asked.

The origin is the highest state of conventional practice. It has three directions: Taoism, detachment, and eternity.

Among them, the Dao Fruit is relatively weak, and may not be able to deal with giant beasts, but it can definitely deal with it beyond the realm.

At least the giant beasts at the level of Da Luo Jinxian can't threaten the detached ones. When the Infinite Kingdom of God was destroyed, there were no detached people there. Otherwise, the kingdom of Gods would not have been destroyed, but the giant beasts would be in danger.

If Patriarch Bodhi could transcend, Yang Hao would no longer have to work hard to find a way to deal with the giant beast.

"It's just that I saw the direction, and I need to cultivate the 'ten thousand dharma divine power' to be able to transcend." Patriarch Bodhi said: "This is also the way I passed down in my dream. It is a blessing left by some existence in the dark. !"

"Existence in the dark?" Yang Hao was stunned.

"Someone once replaced me and used my identity. In order not to owe karma, he left his way and engraved it in the dark." Patriarch Bodhi said: "That's why I can get the'power of ten thousand dharmas'. to the source."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and said again: "I don't know who that existence is, I only know that he is the Supreme Master of all dharmas, mastering all dharmas."

"Supreme Ten Thousand Laws?" Yang Hao silently remembered this person in his heart.

This is the only clue about the earth's treasure that has been found so far.

"Master, how long will it take you to escape?" Sun Wukong asked.

Hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi shook his head and said: "Originally, it was far away, but now with the Dharma door of Daoist Yang Hao, it can be completed in tens of thousands of years! This speed is already extremely fast, but for this immeasurable calamity, there is nothing a teacher can do. .”

"Okay!" Sun Wukong said silently.

He knew it wasn't that simple.

Cultivation does not produce results all at once. If you can do it only by methods, then you have the inheritance of Patriarch Bodhi, and you will not lose to the Tathagata Buddha in the first place.

"Let me take you to meet someone!" Patriarch Bodhi thought for a while, and said, "He is the only one among the twelve ancestor witches who survived by force by relying on spiritual power. It’s not very clever to say, but the knowledge is far from comparable to that of our younger generations, even the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas in the Buddhist sect, Ran Deng, is much lower in seniority than him.”

As he spoke, he released somersault cloud, and then felt the swiftly passing magic power, and decisively retracted it again.

"Wukong, you come to ride the clouds." Patriarch Bodhi said.

Sun Wukong suppressed his smile.

Although Patriarch Bodhi's strength is still unfathomable, but in terms of mana, he is only at the level of a celestial being after all, and has not yet recovered his quasi-sage cultivation, so he cannot support Somersault Cloud at all, even if it is the natal supernatural power he created and engraved in his soul. It doesn't work either.

"Who are you taking us to meet?" Wutian asked.

Yang Hao also looked curious.

"An ancient god, one of the Twelve Patriarchal Witches, the water god Gonggong." Said Patriarch Bodhi.

……

Everyone soon came to Buzhou Mountain and met Gong Gong.

He was a little surprised by the arrival of the crowd. He looked at Patriarch Bodhi and said, "Why did you bring them here? This is the intersection of the Three Realms and the 'Prehistoric'. exist again!"

It was said that Sun Wukong and Wutian both looked unclear.

But Yang Hao stared and said, "The prehistoric world?"

The Great Desolation is the source of oriental mythology, and the ancient gods basically all came from that era.And the world named "Prehistoric" has super heroes such as Pangu and Hongjun. With the blessing of the earth's treasures, God knows how high the level of force is.

If you call people from there and deal with giant beasts, I'm afraid it won't be a problem.

"What world? It's a hole in the sky, a jedi that even an ancestor witch dare not easily set foot in!" Gong Gong said: "There are no people, no living things in the wilderness, and the violent power of the wilderness is everywhere. Even a quasi-sage, after entering It can’t resist the impact of power, and it will be life-threatening.”

Yang Hao was taken aback when he heard this.

Well, this prehistoric world is really "prehistoric", not the prehistoric world I imagined at all.

"Senior, don't worry, we won't fight with Zhu Rong here like you did." Patriarch Bodhi seemed to be very familiar with Gonggong, jokingly said.

Hearing this, Gonggong's face was dark and he didn't speak for a long time.

"How can we deal with the 'beast outside the sky'?" Wutian asked straightforwardly.

Immediately, Gong Gong looked at Sun Wukong and said, "He!"
