Exorcism

Mu Xingqiu's first "Tao lecture" almost turned into a farce. His love affair replaced the origin of Taoism and became the topic of discussion.

Yin Buchen originally just made a casual guess, but Mu Xingqiu's slightly surprised expression let everyone present know that Yin Buchen had guessed correctly this time.

"The so-called calamity is a kind of blockage of love. There is no way to vent it, which is calamity." Qi Dan specializes in the cultivation method of demon elixir and believes that overcoming calamities is his strong point. He immediately grabbed Yin Buchen's attention and started chattering, "Taoist priest Specializing in abandoning emotions and desires, all kinds of blockages occur, which is the source of the tribulation. It is very easy to overcome the tribulation, just restore the seven emotions and six desires. Like us demons who practice demon elixir, we never have to be harsh on ourselves, we can do whatever we want, and the more comfortable we are. Okay, where does 'love disaster' come from?"

"Can a Taoist priest's inner elixir be the same as our demon elixir?" Yin Buchen showed contempt, "Taoist cultivators walk a dangerous path, like crossing the sea of ​​suffering. Others are traveling in boats, but Taoist cultivators have to walk through the abyss. On the single-plank bridge above, one step would lead to eternal disaster. However, even Laojun admitted that although the Taoist path is narrow, the inner elixir produced is the purest and produces the most mana. However, the purer it is, the less it can tolerate any flaws. There are many flaws. If you want to survive the love crisis, you have to listen to me. Find a woman you like, whether human or demon, get two love-web spiders who share the same web, pound them into fine powder, and then you and the woman Divide and obey, and I guarantee that you will fall in love to death within three days. Once you wake up from the dream, you will find that everything is just like this. Having this thought means that the love thread has been broken and the love crisis has been overcome. "

Yin Buchen was very proud, looking left and right as if challenging.

"What's the difference between this and what I said?" Qitan was unconvinced.

"The difference is huge. Desire is like a wild horse. Once it gets out of control, it is difficult to catch it back. My trick is to make the Taoist priest have a love dream for only three days. After waking up, everything will be normal, and the inner alchemy will not be affected at all. Influence." Yin Buchen raised his head, his disdain became more obvious.

"The love web spider is used to deceive the little demon, you actually believe it?" Hao Wangu laughed, "That thing can make you dizzy for three days at most, making you drool in front of the banshee like a fool. According to what I heard You know, Taoist priests' love tribulations are not exactly the same. To overcome the tribulation, you must take the right medicine. For example, did this Taoist priest really fall in love with someone? Why can't they be together? Or is it just a casual love? "

"Your methods are all wrong. Hao Changqing simply stood up and shook his head, "You have all forgotten one thing. Taoist priests pay attention to internal cultivation, and you have to rely on yourself to survive the disaster. There is a saying in Taoism, which is called "Sword of wisdom cuts off the thread of love". This word "cutting" is the key. To put it bluntly, it means you have to be cruel to yourself. As a Taoist priest, you have to treat yourself as a human being. Love is the enemy and Taoist heart is the sword. Slash it with one sword, and strike again if it keeps cutting. In short, you have to rely on your own strength to defeat Qing Jie. Although I am a magician, in order to know myself and the enemy, I have worked hard to study the Taoist system. "

The four new monarchs quarreled again, more fiercely than ever before. They all believed that they knew more about Taoism and understood it more accurately. They waved the animal bones and horns in their hands, spitting stars flying, and they were about to take action.

Xin Youtao's initial premonition was confirmed. This group of humans and monsters were not suitable for discussing the profound Taoism. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said to Mu Xingqiu: "You should keep the issue of the origin of Taoism. Find Zuo Liuying."

What surprised Xin Youtao was that although Mu Xingqiu nodded, he was still listening to the meaningless quarrel between the four demons, as if there was a mysterious truth hidden in these mutual accusations.

Xin Youtao looked around and realized that the only ally he could find was Shen Ji. He leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Have you survived the love crisis?"

Shen Ji looked at him coldly.

"This is a serious discussion, not a casual chat, and I am not interested in your thoughts." Xin Youtao hurriedly explained, "I have given up practicing, my inner alchemy will no longer improve, and there is no need to survive any tribulations. You He is a Taoist priest and a disciple of the Taoist sect, so he should know more about this kind of thing than others. "

Shen Ji's face softened slightly, and he thought for a while before saying, "I don't know more about love tribulations than you do. We form mortal relationships first, and then we form Taoist relationships. Mortal relationships are false, just an excess. Dao relationships can be true or false. If you can save it, you can save it, but if you can't... Although there are several spells that can help save the calamity, we still have to let nature take its course."

Xin Youtao tried his best not to show any curiosity, and asked carefully: "What is the situation with your parents? If you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, forget it. I have no other intention. It's just a discussion."

Shen Ji was silent for a little longer this time. Shen Zhun and Yang Baozhen were in special circumstances. They formed a mortal bond very early and never ended their relationship. They gave birth to ten children one after another, but miraculously they did not delay their spiritual practice and arrived successively. The Xingluo realm is considered a miracle in the Nine Dao Tradition, so many people suspect that they are not connected at all, and live together purely to give birth to a genius like Zuo Liuying.

"My father said that it is possible to improve one's spiritual practice while suffering from emotional tribulations. The key is to maintain a state of being both sentimental and ruthless. This is very difficult, and there are very few people who succeed. My father... became a demon, which may have something to do with it. "

Shen Ji gritted his teeth, Xin Youtao was startled and leaned back slightly. Shen Ji's anger flashed away, and he immediately returned to calm, "My father loved my mother, especially in the last few years. He felt that he had deviated from a state of being both affectionate and ruthless, and he has been trying to correct it. He thought that the relationship with the demon species Fighting helps him feel less emotionally attached to my mother."

"So that's it." Xin Youtao suddenly felt sympathy for Shen Zhun and Yang Baozhen. He thought of Xiao Qingtao and the same vague feelings between the two. He had withdrawn from the Taoist tradition, and Xiao Qingtao would bear all the risks alone. , "The Taoist priest is really walking on a single-plank bridge."

"No one ever said that cultivation is easy." Shen Ji turned to look at Mu Xingqiu, who was also looking at him. "Your situation is a bit special. Qin Lingshuang has been martyred, and the love disaster has become a death." It is more difficult for you to overcome the tribulation than others. But this is not the most difficult thing. The most difficult thing is that you know how to overcome the tribulation, but you don’t want to. And your practice is still improving, almost as fast as Zuo’s. Liuying, so you feel that you don’t need to survive.”

Since leaving the guest house in Jinghu Village, Shen Ji has had very little contact with Mu Xingqiu. They only looked at each other once they met. However, he knew Mu Xingqiu's situation very well, and because they were not friends, they harbored hidden hostility towards each other. , so he dared to say it bluntly.

"You have a ready-made method to overcome the disaster, but you don't use it." Shen Ji continued with a hint of cruelty, "Yang Qingyin is willing to help at any time. She is waiting for you to speak."

"This is not fair to her." Mu Xingqiu finally spoke. He once thought that he would never talk to anyone about this matter, but he had to survive the disaster. This was Fangfang's request and wish.

One of the prerequisites for overcoming the calamity is to treat the calamity of love with a normal mind. He can no longer hide it in his heart. Although none of the four new monarchs are correct, their judgments are correct, which prevents Mu Xingqiu from seeing the Tao clearly. The origin is not only the realm of cultivation, but also the emotional calamity.

What the four half-demon could see through at a glance was as transparent as a Taoist priest. Mu Xingqiu had to admit that there was no point in hiding the love disaster. The Taoist priests around him did not mention it because they did not Caring or caring too much, he promised Fangfang that he would not admit defeat and could no longer hide in front of Qing Jie.

"Fairness? Taoist priests pursue self-perfection, not fairness. If you continue like this, will it be fair to Yang Qingyin?" Shen Ji stood up, "If you want to eliminate differences and find the origin of Taoism, forget about the so-called fairness first."

Shen Ji seemed to be no longer interested in the whole discussion. He took off his sword and flew out of the restriction.

"What is he going for?" Xin Youtao asked in surprise.

"My flying talisman..." Xin Youtao hurriedly observed the talismans he had released. They were still not as sensitive as the Taoist priest's magic tools.

The dispute between the four Yishi Lords finally came to an end. Everyone's mouths were dry, and Yin Buchen asked in a hoarse voice: "Mu Xingqiu, we have come up with so many ideas, you should choose one."

"Thank you all, you have done me a big favor and allowed me to face my emotional calamity. This is a key step in overcoming the calamity." Mu Xingqiu said with a smile.

All four demons looked happy.

"But I don't need your ideas, because - do you still want to listen to the Demon Lord's righteous teachings?"

"Of course!" the four gentlemen said in unison, instantly forgetting all the love affairs and disputes.

"But it is born and dies, so the devil's seed will be passed on forever. It has no permanent shape, no fixed pattern, and is constantly changing. The eternal spread of the devil's seed must begin with division..."

Mu Xingqiu slowly recited the first chapter on how to divide demon species. The four demons listened very carefully, their eight ears trembling slightly for fear of missing a word.

Xin Youtao's flying talisman found nothing. He turned to listen to Mu Xingqiu reciting the text, and soon became bored. He listened to Mu Xingqiu's talk about the method of division in Wangshan Mountain. The whole content was describing how great the demon species was and how great it was. The division is very necessary and the shape after division is not mentioned, but the process and means of division are not mentioned. Until now, they still don't know the specific method of Qi Wushang to restore the demon core.

He walked to the dejected Ouyang Hao and asked, "Do casual cultivators also want to survive the tribulation?"

"Ah? The cultivation methods of each school are very different. Some require surviving tribulations, while others do not."

"Do you need this one?"

"No need, my master said..."

"Ignore your master, and listen to my golden words: Don't participate in the Taoist priest's tribulation. Apart from being a victim, you will be of no use, and you will not receive any reward."

Ouyang Hao's face turned red and he said, "To Taoist Yang..."

Xin Youtao sighed softly and walked up to Yu Wang Fadong again, "The beast monster definitely doesn't have to go through the love tribulation. Your demon elixir is innate and you don't even need to practice. It's really enviable."

King Yu's wings could not be stretched out, and he could only show a fierce look on his face, "Who said that beast monsters don't need to practice? It's just that the method is different from yours, but we really don't have to go through any bullshit tribulations. Taoist priests are our tribulations, kill all of you. , the entire demon clan’s calamity has been saved.”

"Wait patiently." Xin Youtao patted King Yu on the shoulder. His mind was filled with thoughts of mortal fate, Taoist fate, love tribulation, and tribulation. The image of Xiao Qingtao flashed out from time to time, adding to the confusion. He shook his head. Shaking his head, he looked at several flying talismans again and regretted that he did not bring enough high-level talismans. The quality of the talismans he wrote was indeed poor.

One of the flying talismans finally spotted the person coming. Xin Youtao was shocked. After a while, he turned around and said, "Mu Xingqiu, your messenger to save the calamity is here."

Mu Xingqiu was memorizing the second chapter on how to break buds when he heard the words and was stunned, "Who?"

The four demons were also fascinated by what he heard, and after the interruption, they all cast angry glances at Xin Youtao.

Xin Youtao didn't care, pointing to the blurry figure flying towards the west with Shen Ji, "Your little devil."
