Fengshen Wendaoxing

Chapter 18 Three Difficulties in Cultivation

"It's true that it was a god, but it's a pity that it fell into the magic way and became a demon." Shen Gongbao looked back at the look in his eyes and sighed softly.

Lu Chuan was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Dare to ask Master, why is this, the gods turned into demons..."

Shen Gongbao said: "Take a look at this temple. How is it? Did you find anything?"

"This temple..." Lu Chuan looked around the ruined temple and said, "It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. The roof is broken in several places, and the walls are cracked so many cracks..."

Shen Gongbao nodded and said, "That's right, this temple has not received incense for many years."

"But what does this incense have to do with her becoming a demon?" Lu Chuan was a little confused.

Shen Gongbao said: "I think you should have seen it just now, she is just a ghost and has no entity?"

"Ghost?" Lu Chuan was taken aback, and murmured, "Didn't I meet a goblin, but a ghost?"

He doesn't know much about ghosts.

But he did see it before, the banshee turned into a dragon looked a little illusory, unreal, just a phantom in the shape of a dragon.

"That's why... it's almost the same, she has no physical body, and belongs to the first class of ghosts and immortals."

Shen Gongbao said: "Usually she can only rely on the power of some incense to keep her dharma body immortal and her ghosts to live forever. But as we just said, this temple has not had incense for many years."

"What will happen if there is no more incense?" Lu Chuan asked.

Shen Gongbao sighed and said: "The soul flies away and returns to heaven and earth."

"Ah?" Lu Chuan was stunned, and said, "Is it so miserable for a god without the power of incense?"

He remembered that all the gods on the list in the Conferred Gods seemed to have no physical body, and they were all listed on the Conferred Gods list with a little true spirit.

Do they also...

"It's a bit miserable, but you're right, only gods without flesh bodies can be this miserable, not those with flesh bodies."

Shen Gongbao said sadly: "In order not to disappear in this world, she chose to fall into the evil way and eat people, and use human blood to cultivate demon energy, and demon energy to keep her soul immortal."

"So that's how it is."

Lu Chuan's eyes flickered, which really made people shudder. He chose to eat people to keep himself alive...

Lu Chuan actually understood her a little bit.

After all, ants are greedy for life, if anyone is in her situation, I am afraid that they will not be willing to die. Lu Chuan asked himself that he would not be able to sit still and wait for death.

But no matter what, her misery can't be the reason for her to harm others, because those people eaten by her are all innocent passers-by.

Today she was wounded by Shen Gongbao and ended up being eaten by the Shenhu, which is what she deserved.

This may be what people often say: poor people must have something to hate.

No!

That's not a person, it's a demon, or a ghost who has become a demon.

Is that a ghost or a demon?

Or should it be called a ghost? ? ?

Shen Gongbao sighed: "The method of cannibalism is too vicious and cruel, and it is the behavior of a demon. So from the time she ate the first human, she has changed from a god to a demon."

"oh!"

Lu Chuan nodded after listening, and was silent for a while.

Suddenly Shen Gongbao said: "Lu Chuan, senior brother asked you to practice with me, now I ask you, what are you practicing for?"

Lu Chuan was startled, but didn't hear clearly: "What?"

"Or why do you want to practice, you want to practice." Shen Gongbao asked again.

"for what?"

Lu Chuan lowered his head and began to think seriously.

Yes, why did he want to cultivate, and what was his purpose for wanting to cultivate in the first place?

Seeing Lu Chuan thinking, Shen Gongbao didn't choose to disturb him either.

Just sitting quietly cross-legged by the fire, staring at the dancing flames burning above the firewood.

After a long time.

"Master, I want to live forever."

After thinking alone for a long time, Lu Chuan turned his head and looked at Shen Gongbao seriously, and heaved a sigh of relief after speaking.

In fact, at the beginning, he just wanted to learn some Taoism and skills from Jiang Ziya, so as to deal with the upcoming catastrophe of conferred gods, so as not to let himself become a cannon fodder.

But since the enlightened master is right in front of us, why not just seek immortality and live freely in the world?

"Changsheng?" Shen Gongbao smiled slightly, not surprised.

Lu Chuan nodded seriously: "Yes, this disciple wants to become a fairy."

"Achieving Taoism and becoming immortal? Hahaha..." Shen Gongbao laughed out loud.

Lu Chuan was calm and asked, "Dare to ask why Master is laughing?"

Shen Gongbao stopped laughing and said, "Then let me ask you, what do you think is a fairy?"

After pondering for a while, Lu Chuan said: "I will live forever, ride the clouds and ride the fog, and live freely in the world..."

Speaking of this, Lu Chuan hesitated for a moment.

"Say what comes to mind, don't worry or hide anything."

Shen Gongbao said: "The teacher is testing you and judging what to teach you. If you miss the opportunity because of this, don't blame the teacher for not teaching you."

Lu Chuan then continued: "Flying into the sky, hiding from the ground, moving mountains to fill the sea, omnipotent..."

I talked about the idioms that I could think of to describe the gods like memorizing a text for most of the day.

Shen Gongbao: "..."

"Then do you think it's a fairy?" After finally Lu Chuan finished speaking, Shen Gongbao asked quickly.

This brat, if he doesn't stop him, what if he recites it till dawn?

"Is the fairy okay?"

Lu Chuan was startled when he heard the words, and immediately said without hesitation: "Of course, if it's not good, then why would everyone in the world want to be a god?"

Shen Gongbao asked again: "Since everyone in the world knows that immortals are good, why are there so few people who become immortals?"

"This..." Lu Chuan couldn't speak.

Shen Gongbao said: "Do you know the three difficulties in cultivating the Tao?"

Lu Chuan said respectfully: "I don't know, so I ask Master to teach me."

"If you want to become an immortal, you must be born with the roots of immortals in the first difficulty, you must be born with immortal fate in the second difficulty, and you must be able to meet a famous teacher in the third difficulty."

Shen Gongbao said: "If you want to become a fairy, you must first face these three difficulties. If you want to become a fairy, these three are indispensable."

"Immortal Root, Destiny, Famous Teacher?" Lu Chuan lowered his head and thought about the meaning of the three.

Shen Gongbao turned a blind eye, and said loudly: "The root bone is the first hurdle. Those without immortal roots can't even set foot on the road of cultivation, and can only be lost to everyone."

"What about those who have roots and no karma?" Lu Chuan asked.

Shen Gongbao said: "For those who are destined to be destined, good fortune also exists. For those who have immortal roots but no good fortune, they practice hard, and in the end it will be nothing in the end."

Lu Chuan bowed his head and remained silent after listening.

If so, Jiang Ziya should be in this situation.

Jiang Ziya's ability to practice Taoism shows that he has roots, but Yuanshi also said that his destiny is too shallow to become a fairy, so he was sent from Kunlun Mountain, and he will be enshrined in the future on his behalf.

As for the famous teacher...

Lu Chuan thought of a spirit monkey that would be born in the future.

Originally, he was born from heaven and earth, so it goes without saying that he has a whole body, and he was born with a great opportunity to make good fortune.

But even so, didn't he spend more than ten years looking for a famous teacher?

Lu Chuan suddenly said: "Dare to ask Master, what is the root and nature of the disciple?"

"It is said that the fate of good fortune has its own destiny, how can a teacher know this."

Shen Gongbao smiled, and said: "As for the root... Do you think that if you don't have a root, do you think the brother will let you worship me as a teacher?"

Lu Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he also thought of this episode, but he was somewhat unconfident, but Shen Gongbao's words gave him a reassurance.

"Master, so... I can practice too?" Lu Chuan asked again.

He felt in his heart that the mood at this time was more exciting and unbelievable than the admission letter from the university.

Shen Gongbao smiled and nodded.

"Then master, when can I practice?" Lu Chuan asked again.

But Shen Gongbao shook his head and said with a smile: "No hurry, no hurry, now you don't even know what a fairy is, let alone how to cultivate and become a fairy?"

"Then Master, what is an immortal?" Lu Chuan asked.

"A person can become a ghost when he dies, and an immortal when he attains the Tao. People are right in the middle."

Shen Gongbao said: "Those who are pure yin are ghosts, those who are pure yang are immortals, and those who combine yin and yang are humans. Only when humans are in the middle can they become both ghosts and immortals." (Note 1)

"Fairy, human, ghost?"

Lu Chuan bowed his head and pondered, thoughtfully.

Note 1: This statement comes from a Daoist book, not a casual fabrication.

In addition, the signing was completed, and the two shifts started.
