Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

"Buddhism actually lost..."

"With one against two, after today, Senior Zhenyuan will definitely be famous throughout the south!"

"It is already well-known throughout the world, but with this record, it can gain even more weight."

"It's a pity that the two Buddhist deities didn't try their best. They only saw the cloth bag of the universe, but not the exquisite seven treasures."

"This is natural. It's just a fight of magic. It's not a fight of life and death. How can we use high-grade Buddha treasures?"

"It doesn't matter if we leave the pagoda. The five-color divine light of Zhenyuan Immortal is so sharp. Even Qiankun Bagai is not an enemy. Even if the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda is just a matter of meeting a good talent and an opponent, we will fight evenly. How can we use all our strength? In the fight, both sides will be injured, and both the jade and the stone will be destroyed.”

"The two venerables are also rational and know that even if they leave the pagoda and try their best, they will not be able to defeat the Zhenyuan Immortal. At most, they will be tied, and they still cannot get back the purple bell. It is really unreasonable to work so hard for a middle-grade Buddhist treasure. Wisdom, it is better to retreat and go back to see what the Great Merciful Bodhisattva plans."

"This time the reputation of Buddhism has declined, and it has become a stepping stone for Zhenyuan Immortal. After today, in Nanzhan Buzhou, Wuzhuang Temple in Wanshou Mountain, even if it is not as good as the True Immortal School, is almost the same."

"Great Immortal Zhenyuan has such attainments in the Five Elements and One Path. No wonder he can refine the Grass Returning Pill that belongs to the Five Elements. If he goes a step further in the future and becomes a seventh or even eighth-level immortal master, he is expected to refine a top-grade elixir from the beginning?"

"If this is true, then this Alchemy Festival can really be compared with the Peach Festival, Bon Bon Festival and other fairyland events..."

Everyone interacted with each other, and there were many rumors and discussions.

Xu Yang also lowered the clouds and returned to the temple.

"Brother's magical powers are indeed extraordinary."

"The five elements are empty and very mysterious."

"Today I will establish my prestige through this battle. It will also make people in the west and various states dare not underestimate me, the monk Nanzhan."

The Peony Fairy and others congratulated each other, which heated up the atmosphere of the banquet.

"ha!"

Xu Yang smiled, returned to his seat, and raised his glass again to invite everyone: "Fellow Taoists, please come!"

"please!"

"Great Immortal please!"

Everyone was so kind and raised their glasses to congratulate each other.

After drinking the wine to start the banquet, it was time to taste the elixir.

Xu Yang didn't say much. He opened the jade box on the table and took out a spiritual elixir. The elixir was transparent and concealed the spiritual energy. There were five colors of light inside, turning into the power of Hunyuan Qi. It was the highest grade Hunyuan grass. Return the elixir.

This herb-returning elixir was created by integrating his own elixir cauldron skills based on the Five Elements Immortal Sect method and the secret technique left behind by the "Five Elements Heavenly Lord". Although it has not broken through the seventh level limit, it has reached the sixth level. .

This Hunyuancao Huandan is one of the best. It can effectively improve the qualifications of the Five Elements Spiritual Roots. Long-term use can even develop the Five Elements Spiritual Body. It is similar to the Five Elements Immortal Sect's treasure, the Five Directions Merit Pool.

Of course, among the Five Elements Hunyuan, there are only a few of them on the Mahayana Seat. The rest are all single elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. At most, they can only raise their spiritual roots to the heavenly level, and they are powerless against the spiritual body.

Even so, it cannot negate its value. Even in the earthly immortal world, top-grade heavenly spirits can be considered to be extremely talented. Many of the fusion monks present have heavenly-grade spiritual roots, and some do not even have it.

so……

Xu Yang went first and took the elixir, and Fairy Peony and others also followed suit.

Several Mahayana people have already taken action, and everyone is no longer restrained. They take out the elixir suit and put it into their mouths with anticipation.

The elixir entered the mouth and formed an exquisite line. Without seeing the taste, it entered the elixir cauldron in the belly. Immediately, a majestic energy of the five elements and innate spirituality spread out, and the limbs and bones were all over the body.

"Hmm~!"

"This pill..."

Although I was mentally prepared, I still underestimated the efficiency of this elixir, especially the simple cultivation monks of returning to the void and transforming into gods. They almost lost their manners and did not care about being in the banquet. They meditated on the spot and transformed. Here comes the elixir.

Xu Yang smiled and swept the whisk, covering the Wanshou Mountain and above. The "Evergreen Infinite Formation" inside and outside Wuzhuang Temple started to operate, attracting the spiritual energy of thousands of trees, helping everyone dissolve the elixir and absorb more medicinal essence.

In this way, for an unknown period of time, the auras moved around the table, and some of the lower-level spiritual transformation monks directly broke through the realm, and the higher-level cultivation monks of returning to the void and the fusion monks also made small progress.

This is the grass-returning elixir. Not only can it purify spiritual roots, it can also improve your cultivation, increase your Taoism, and even extend your life.

When the gods break through and return to the void, there should be a catastrophe, but everyone here is extraordinary, and methods to avoid catastrophes are prevalent in the earthly and immortal world, so they quickly used secret methods to temporarily suppress this catastrophe, so as not to disturb the alchemy meeting.

Even if there is a part that cannot be suppressed, it will leave the view and escape to a distant place to survive the tribulation.

Like this, three days later.

"We will never forget the great immortal's kindness in helping us!"

Everyone gathered together, bowed and thanked everyone.

"Fellow Taoists, there is no need to be polite."

Xu Yang smiled, helped everyone up with his empty hands, then looked left and right, and said to Fairy Peony, Master Ziyang, and others: "The way of cultivation is to cherish one's own broom. It is really not advisable. Only by exchanging what is needed can we learn from each other's strengths and make up for each other's weaknesses, and go hand in hand. Therefore, I want to work with you." When you talk about Taoism and Dharma, if you have any opinions or have any questions, you can speak freely, and we will discuss them together!"

"this……"

These words made everyone's eyes brighten with anticipation and excitement.

Needless to say, everyone in the audience has just taken the elixir and achieved a breakthrough in returning to the virtual world. Needless to say, it is the critical moment when we step into a new realm and urgently need guidance, solid foundation, point out the direction, and confirm the path. For Mahayana monks, that guidance is It’s something you can’t ask for.

Returning to the void and transforming into a spirit is like this, and the combination is also the same. Although the difference between the combined Mahayana and the Mahayana is only one level, in fact it is a huge difference. Many combined monks, such as Chushan Jun, Lu Tugong, etc., have been trapped in the bottleneck of the combination for thousands of years. The opportunity to condense the immortal spirit and advance to the Mahayana realm.

For such monks, Mahayana teachings and guidance are precious opportunities, and they may be able to shake their bottlenecks and achieve breakthroughs based on experience.

However, there are really not many opportunities like this. After all, the current atmosphere in the world of cultivation is not good, and most of the major immortal sects are jealous of themselves, especially the Buddhist Heavenly Court. They use this to induce and even force individual cultivators to join.

Unless one comes from a sect of immortals and gods, and their elders are Mahayana monks or even immortals who have transcended tribulations, it is generally difficult for a fusion to have the opportunity for expert guidance. The only option is to look for the relics of the predecessors and learn from their inheritance.

Now, Xu Yang is not only bestowed with spiritual elixirs at the Danyuan Meeting, but he also has to discuss Mahayana doctrines with Master Ziyang and others. This is indeed a huge opportunity for everyone present.

Invisibly, the gold content of this Danyuan meeting has increased a lot.

"My fellow Taoist, this move will benefit the cultivation world, and the merits are immeasurable!"

"It is not advisable to work behind closed doors."

"It will be of great benefit to us to discuss Taoism and exchange experiences."

Fairy Peony and others had already known about this matter, and without the slightest objection, they nodded in obedience.

"Then Pindao will come first."

Xu Yang smiled and said in an exemplary manner: "Pindao is based on Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, so I will start from the Tao of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements and start from the shallower to the deeper. You all can learn from it together!"

After that, he began to narrate the story under the gaze of everyone.

When it comes to talking about Tao and Dharma, there are many Tao and many Dharma. Where to start?

It starts from the most fundamental practice method.

When cultivators practice cultivation, Dharma and wealth are the companion of the earth, Dharma comes first, and the most important thing is.

Xu Yang started his lecture. Although there were no fancy phenomena such as flowers falling from the sky or golden lotuses sprouting from the ground, the success lies in the steady and solid progress from shallow to deep. The Tao of Yin Yang and Five Elements is even more applicable and comprehensive, so that everyone can gain something, and it is rare to be scratched. A head-scratching sight.

Seeing this, Fairy Peony and others were also filled with admiration.

"Fellow Taoist Zhenyuan, you are quite good at teaching!"

"From the shallower to the deeper, step by step, don't tell others, we will also gain something."

"Reviewing the old and learning the new is wonderful, wonderful!"

"With this power of education, the Wuzhuang Taoism will surely flourish."

"..."

In this way, in the Wuzhuang Temple, the sound of Taoism and Dharma is unknown, and in the blink of an eye, three months have passed.

Xu Yang stopped talking and clicked to the end. Everyone woke up and felt lost for a while.

Xu Yang didn't say much. He turned his eyes and looked at Master Ziyang: "Fellow Taoist is coming too?"

"Then let the old man show his embarrassment."

Master Ziyang didn't shirk, he took over the topic and started preaching.

For such a pair, the gap is immediately apparent.

Although Ziyang Zhenren is an elder in Mahayana and is the founder of Wuzhen Cave in Jinhua Mountain, he also has a lot of experience in the method of education, but his teachings are still not as easy to understand as Xu Yang.

When it comes to some esoteric and obscure things, even the monks who are integrated will frown when they hear it, not to mention those who are returning to the virtual world, and those with dull qualifications will scratch their heads and scratch their heads, completely unaware of the reason.

Master Ziyang did not explain much about this, because this is his teaching style, and it is also the mainstream teaching style in Nanzhan Buzhou and even the entire earthly immortal cultivation world.

Rotten wood cannot be carved. If you don't understand, it means you are not qualified enough. If you are not qualified, there is no meaning in teaching. The major immortal sects will not spend a lot of time and a lot of resources to cultivate disciples with mediocre qualifications. Once they are in the mud, they can be helped up by force. , and future achievements will be quite limited.

Therefore, all the major immortal sects only teach talented people. If they are not the proud ones of heaven, it will be difficult for them to gain entry.

In this way, after three months, Master Ziyang almost finished speaking, and Sword Lord Chunjun took over.

Compared with Master Ziyang, Sword Lord Chunjun was even less good at teaching, his lectures were more obscure, and he focused on the art of swordsmanship. Most of the practitioners at the table did not understand, and they tried their best to listen, but their minds were muddy and confused.

Then I went to Peony Fairy, which was a little better, but not much better. Only a few people could understand its meaning, and most of them seemed to understand but not understand, and seemed to understand but not understand.

And let alone the final Dapeng King!

As a pure wild-born, half-human, half-demon hybrid monk, he was able to cultivate to the Mahayana realm only because of his extraordinary talents and strong destiny. He is an example that cannot be copied. Even so, he still made himself offensive internally and externally. If Xu Yang hadn't saved his life, he would have exploded and died.

In this way, he didn't have any experience to speak of, and he didn't dare to listen to others. In the end, he simply didn't go on stage.

Each of the five Mahayana has its own characteristics.

But the most popular one was undoubtedly Xu Yang, so after Fairy Peony finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to him.

He could die in the morning and evening. With such an opportunity ahead of him, no one could care much about it.

Xu Yang smiled and regained control of the situation: "I have basically finished explaining the basic methods of cultivation. If you have gained something or have trouble solving a problem, you can all get up and speak freely, and we will solve it together!"

"this……"

Everyone looked at each other with hesitation.

Finally, Lord Chushan, who was relatively close to him, stood up and said, "Brother Taoist, there is one thing I don't understand. It's what Master Ziyang just said about the opportunity of the Mahayana Immortal Spirit..."

"It turned out to be this place. It's really obscure."

Xu Yang nodded and looked at Master Ziyang. Seeing the latter nodding, he turned back and explained to Lord Chushan: "The way of Mahayana, the opportunity of immortality..."

In this way, what Master Ziyang just said was broken down again, and everyone suddenly became enlightened.

The same reason, the same content, Xu Yang explained it in such an easy-to-understand way that everyone at the table could understand it.

"this……"

"Fellow Taoist Zhenyuan, you are indeed a scholar of heaven!"

"For the same reason, Senior Zhenyuan can speak so plainly and easily!"

Everyone was amazed when they heard this, and Master Ziyang also sighed: "This kind of enlightenment is really difficult to achieve by the old way!"

Xu Yang smiled and said in reply: "It's just a fundamental skill. If it involves the secrets of the Dao, it's hard for a poor Dao to do so."

This is not a modest statement. He can indeed dismantle some basic principles of spiritual practice in an easy-to-understand manner based on his own accumulation and the many characteristics of his teaching skills.

But if it involves the core method of the Great Dao, such as the element of fire practiced by Ziyang Zhenren and the secret of Ziyang Sun, he can't dismantle it like this because he doesn't understand it very well.

However, Master Ziyang obviously would not be able to explain the fundamentals of inheritance and the method of life. He could only explain some basic principles of Mahayana, and it would be easy for him to dismantle them.

After Xu Yang explained, Lord Chushan suddenly became enlightened and sat down with satisfaction. Then another monk stood up and said, "I just listened to Master Chunjun's lecture on the art of swordsmanship, and there is something unclear about me..."

Xu Yang smiled and turned to look at Chunjun Sword Lord. After getting his agreement, he also started to dismantle it.

In this way, when the practitioners asked questions and Xu Yang answered their questions, he actually broke down all the difficult questions taught by several Mahayana practitioners and taught them to everyone. Although most of them were basic principles, they also showed his profound attainments.

After three months, the basic teachings were mostly finished, and all the practitioners in the temple gained something. Even some Mahayana practitioners felt that they had reviewed the past and learned something new.

"The fundamental method is probably like this."

Xu Yang regained control of the situation and said with a chuckle: "But there are many obstacles to cultivators' cultivation. They can't just have the basic method of immortality, but also have the skills to protect themselves and fight, as well as the means to make money. So this time, we are also talking about protecting the Tao. techniques, as well as various dharma and hundreds of arts.”

After saying that, he glanced at everyone and said, "Which fellow Taoist will come first?"

"I will come first!"

This time it was Chunjun Sword Lord who was the first to speak out. He looked at Xu Yang and said with a chuckle: "Some time ago, I traveled around the world and went to the territory of Dongsheng Shenzhou. I also went to Heaven to meet a few friends. As a result, I met in Heaven. A novel method called Tiangong's creation method, Lingbao Armor method!"

Xu Yang: "..."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yang fell silent and everyone was surprised.

"Heavenly creation?"

"Lingbao Armor Technique?"

"Heaven's new law?"

"this……"

Everyone looked at each other, obviously they had never heard of it.

Chunjun Sword Lord smiled: "This method can use a treasure core, created by heaven, to control all weapons, and combine millions, tens of millions, or even billions of magical weapons into a shape, called Lingbao Armor, and its combat power is particularly outstanding. !”

After saying that, he took out a Nai Ring: "I also spent a lot of effort to buy a pair from Taibai Star Palace. Fellow Taoists, please appreciate it and see what is novel and unique about this method."
