Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Either the former or the latter.

At present, it has little to do with Xu Yang.

He was only certain of one thing, and that was that there was extraordinary power in this world, extremely powerful extraordinary power.

This can also be seen from the speed of flow between this world and the real world.

The time flow rate between this world and the real world is one hundred to one.

A hundred times the time difference!

Although it is much worse than the ten times time difference in the Black Water World, it is still higher than the three hundred and sixty-five times time difference in the Great Zhou and Tang Dynasties.

After many dreams of butterflies, Xu Yang has guessed that the time difference between dreams and reality may be related to the level of the world, which is at least one of the determining factors.

The higher the level of the dream world, the stronger the power, and the smaller the time difference between the dream world and the real world!

In the black water world filled with gods and Buddhas, the time difference is only ten times.

The common martial arts of Great Zhou and Great Tang were three hundred and sixty-five times higher.

The one hundred times time difference in the current world is enough to show that its world level is higher than that of the Zhou and Tang Dynasties.

Not to mention the Great Zhou Dynasty, the world of the Great Tang Dynasty possesses the vitality of heaven and earth. By practicing martial arts, one can enter the five realms of martial arts.

In this world, the Yuanling is thin and the world is poor, but its energy level is still higher than that of the Tang Dynasty?

Interesting, really interesting!

Xu Yang became very interested in the practice methods of this world.

The method of cultivation, no matter the system, cannot bypass the word "material".

Just like the foundation of technology is energy, no matter what kind of cultivation system it is, it requires material as its foundation.

Cultivation and Qi cultivation require Yuan Ling.

Martial arts training also requires resources.

Energy energy is a must.

Therefore, what kind of energy and what kind of resources do the extraordinary systems and spiritual practices of this world rely on?

The soul of heaven and earth is impossible, too barren.

Flesh and flesh supplies also need the support of Yuan Ling, and resources are also scarce.

what is that?

Xu Yang still doesn't know.

But if you look through the tube, you can see something. Through various appearances in this world, you can get some clues.

For example, this is unreasonable and very prosperous.

Could it be that this is a "Confucianism and Taoism" world, where reading can nourish awe-inspiring auras, and speaking and writing can be compared to magical powers?

possible!

but……

Xu Yang stopped writing, looked at an article written by himself, and frowned slightly.

After two lifetimes of accumulation and study of heaven and man, he is no longer an ordinary time-traveler, but a great master who has studied ancient and modern times and is a fellow practitioner of the three religions.

Although during the Zhou Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, he twice destroyed mountains and temples, destroyed Taoism and Buddhism, suppressed Confucianism, and wiped out the world, this did not prevent him from studying the classics of the three religions and becoming a master of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. .

As far as the secular world is concerned, his Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism are all top-notch. Even if a saintly monk comes to debate scriptures with him, he can still argue the other person perfectly. He can understand all the Taoist and Buddhist scriptures. It is easy to read through and memorize it backwards and forwards. The beautiful articles and timeless famous articles are all written casually.

He has also looked through the original owner's collection of books and read various classics in this world. He is very good at it, but it is not the method of immortals. With his current Confucian cultivation, the poems and articles he writes are not inferior to those of the great Confucians.

But……

no response!

No reaction at all!

Beautiful articles, but no talent.

A famous story through the ages, but no vision.

These are his original articles and poems.

But before, he was too lazy to think about it. The articles and poems written by Dang Wenzhigong also had no vision, and they did not bring him any literary spirit to help his practice. They were completely inconsistent with his understanding of "Confucianism and Taoism".

Is it because the way he writes is wrong, or for some other reason?

Xu Yang frowned, crumpled this splendid article about the number one scholar and could be passed down from generation to generation into waste paper, and threw it into the stove nearby.

Then, pick up the pen and write again.

This time, instead of writing poems and articles, he rewrote Buddhist classics.

Diamond Sutra, Surangama Sutra, Infinite Life Sutra, Lotus Sutra, Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra...

I couldn't copy that many, but I picked out famous chapters, which are also Buddhist classics, as well as some Buddhist doctrines that he understood and understood.

Putting aside the fact that he destroyed the Buddha twice, in terms of academic level, it was no worse than the Buddhist scriptures he had been looking for opportunities to read in the past few days, or even much better.

But... still no response.

Xu Yang frowned, threw the paper into the furnace, and started writing Tibetan classics again.

After sorting out the memory of the original owner and conducting overt and covert investigations in the past few days, Xu Yang discovered that although the Tao of Wenmo was victorious in this world, it was not dominated by Confucianism and Legalism. Taoism, Buddhism, and the inheritance of the three religions were all prosperous.

If there is really a powerful force behind the promotion of the way of literature and Mohism, it will definitely not be able to circumvent the three religions of Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism.

Nowadays, literature and art are flourishing, and the three religions of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism are even more prosperous. If there is truly extraordinary practice, it must be related to the three religions.

But why...

A Taoist scripture was written, but there was still no response.

"The so-called literary spirit is not derived from classics!"

Xu Yang's eyes narrowed, he put down his pen and ink, and threw the newly written Taoist Scripture into the stove.

"Everything has its origin. It cannot happen out of thin air without a reason. Things like literature and ink are just carriers, not root causes. Nature cannot provide me with strength!"

"If those splendid articles, timeless masterpieces, and Taoist and Buddhist classics have extraordinary power, then something must have become their energy source and injected power into them!"

"What is it?"

"Excluding the most basic elements of heaven and earth, there is only one possibility!"

"Incense, faith, thoughts of all beings, the power of the soul!"

"The cultivation qualifications of this world are the power of the soul formed by the belief in incense and the gathering of people!"

"The so-called Confucianism, French culture, and Buddhism and Taoism are all derived from the incense belief of all living beings, and the power of the soul to gather people, turn falsehood into truth, and come from the otherworldly world."

"So, no matter how well written a poem, an article, or a Buddhist scripture is, it has no meaning. It must be spread in the world and absorb the wishes of all living beings, so that it can turn decay into magic and possess extraordinary power!"

"This is...the method of cultivating the truth through falsehood!"

"Therefore, the driving force behind the great prosperity of literature and Tao in this world is the cultivators of the world. The three religions work together to promote Tao in the world, so as to harvest the world's incense and the will power of all living beings as their own cultivation resources."

"Whatever Confucianism and Taoism, Buddhism and Taoism, to put it bluntly, they are all spiritual cultivation!"

"That's it, that's it. No wonder..."

A leopard can be seen in a tube.

In an instant, Xu Yang connected all the information and clues and came up with an answer.

As soon as this answer was revealed, the whole matter and all the connections and problems were cleared up.

In this world, vitality is scarce. If you want to practice cultivation, you can only gather the power of all living beings and the power of the world.

There are only two ways to gather people, one is to collect their flesh and blood, and the other is to collect their souls.

But it cannot be collected directly, because it is eating human flesh and blood and sucking human souls. It is an out-and-out evil practice, which is not tolerated in the world and cannot last long.

If you want the water to flow slowly and continuously, you can only have faith and practice the law and offer incense, so as to refine the power of the souls of all living beings and turn it into your own cultivation resources.

This is the correct way to practice in this world.

That’s why literature in this world is so prosperous and literature and ink is so humble, because behind it is the entire world of cultivation.

The three religions Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism all need "Literature and Taoism" as a carrier to attract the faith of all living beings and make them popular among all people.

Splendid articles, famous articles throughout the ages, are originally not very strange, but because of Confucianism and Taoism, they spread all over the world and more people study them, so they can turn decay into magic and gain otherworldly power.

That's how it is to cultivate truth through falsehood.

Not only articles and poems, but also other Confucian and Legal classics, as well as those great Confucians, were originally secular mortals. The reason why they became extraordinary was because they practiced Confucianism and received the power of the souls of all living beings to believe in and bless them.

After figuring out this core point, many problems in Xu Yang's mind were immediately cleared up.

Why is it that there are ghosts and foxes in this world who like to seek out scholars and have sex with them?

It is because the scholar belongs to the Confucian and Legalist system and has the soul power of gathering people - literary energy!

This is of great benefit to the spiritual practice, so ghosts and foxes like to charm scholars.

In fact, not only scholars, but also little Taoist priests and little monks are also the objects of their charm and absorption.

The power of the souls of all living beings is extraordinary qualifications and has formed a system.

Confucianism and Legalism, the pursuit of fame, as long as you can obtain fame, you can become a practitioner of Confucianism and Legalism, and with this literary quality, you will be superior to ordinary people.

Among the Ma family's genealogy, there are only a few members of the clan who have lived past sixty. Without exception, they are all scholars who have achieved fame, and at worst, they have gained fame as a scholar, which is not enough to support them.

"So, the way to practice in this world is to study the Confucian classics passed down from generation to generation and draw literary spirit from them, or to take the exam for merit and fame and obtain an official status, which can also be used to gather literary spirit."

"Of course, you can also gain a lot of literary grace by publishing your works directly and spreading your poems to the world."

"But these take time, an extremely long time to accumulate, develop a reputation, be known to the world and worship sincerely, in order to gather enough culture!"

"Although this is the right way to practice, it is too slow."

"The most direct and fastest way is to eat people. Those monsters and evil cultivators must like to eat people with strong literary talents, even great Confucians and cultivators, as well as court officials, and even the emperor's dragon spirit. These can reach the sky in one step!"

"so……"

Xu Yang sorted out the context and came closer to the truth: "Did the original owner fall in love with a spirit and die after draining his literary energy?"

"No, the original owner has not yet passed the scientific examination, has not even passed the college examination, and has not obtained the status of a child student. Where did he get the kind of literary style that attracts spirits?"

"What's more, if the spirit absorbs Wen Qi and drains the Yang Qi of life together, then the cause of death should be that the essence is exhausted and it becomes a mummy, and the cause of death of the original owner is that the soul is severely damaged..."

"etc!"

"Soul?"

Xu Yang's eyes narrowed and he suddenly woke up: "Evil cultivator!"

The thoughts in my heart were undecided, then I saw...

"I'll give you a little slap on the head, and I'll tear you apart!"

"I'll beat you up for being a little human, and I'll have you cut into pieces by five horses and your life will be in danger!"

"I'll beat your little little feet so that there are nails in the soles of your feet with nowhere to go!"

"I'll slap you on the back and make you act like a cow forever!"

"..."

In the dark, he muttered words, and a hoarse and sharp curse came into Xu Yang's mind.
