Road to science and technology

Before Di Jun could say anything to arouse hatred, he saw a stream of light flying from the shaker into Donghuang Taiyi's hand.

The monks took a closer look and saw that he was really number one.

Suddenly the crowd was excited and packed with people.

As if he had won a tens of billions jackpot, Donghuang Taiyi burst into laughter and walked into Tushita Palace.

"We, the demon tribe, are in great demand!"

Di Jun muttered something silently in his mind and looked back at the two witch clans just now. They were Gonggong and Zhu Rong, the two ancestral witches.

Arguing is not allowed in the Daozu Dojo, so Di Jun endured his anger and stepped in front of the lottery machine. But he was not very lucky and got the number 5800.

He had no choice but to enter Tushita Palace with a dark face.

The results of the lottery between Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun caused a heated discussion, but apart from making the monks even more excited, nothing came out of the discussion.

As time goes by, the number is also decreasing rapidly.

Among them, Fuxi had some bad luck and got the number two.

Nuwa drew the number 3100, Yuanshi and Tongtian drew the number 507, and the other drew the number 10. The number seven was drawn, and the number 6,408 was drawn. Doumu drew the number 38, Kunpeng the 338th, and Chang Xi the 409th.

It is worth mentioning that Xi He drew the number 5801, which happened to be next to Di Jun.

Zhen Yuanzi drew number 11, and he happened to be next to Tongtian, telling each other how sorry they were that they almost made it to the top six.

These people all missed out on the six innate gourds.

As for the East Prince and the Queen Mother of the West, they arrived too late and had no chance to draw numbers, so they could only vote by standing vote. The Wu tribe was not very interested in hearing sermons, so they came very late and had standing room votes.

No, Hou Tu did draw a number, but he only drew number eight, which was considered higher.

The person who drew number three was an unknown Taiyi Golden Immortal. He obtained a yellow gourd, which had been refined into an innate spiritual treasure and contained a set of peerless archery techniques called Ten Thousand Arrows Returning to the Sect.

It is said to be made by Taoist Shenzhou.

The one who got number five was Wangshu. She got a green gourd, which was refined by Taishang Taozu using the Bagua furnace to create a treasure that contained the way of creation.

As for the golden gourd obtained by the unknown Da Luo Jinxian who was shaken to the fourth position, it was refined into an offensive innate spiritual treasure called the Immortal Killing Flying Knife. It was composed of an extremely sharp and indestructible innate Geng Gold. It is composed of Qi and the true fire of the sun that burns all things. It is said that it was also refined by Taoist Shenzhou.

The monks entered the Tushita Palace one after another and sat down, waiting for the arrival of the Supreme Being.

Since everyone has their own number and is seated accordingly, unlike Hongjun's Zixiao Palace where people can compete for seats, the monks did not cause any trouble to compete for seats.

However, there are some people who are not willing to accept it, and that is the lead who has drawn No. 7. To his left is Hongyun No. 6, and to the left is Wang Shu and the unknown Daluo Jinxian from before. To the side and in front is the mere Taiyi Jinxian Xiu. As No. 3, it can be said that he was the only one in the first three rows who did not receive the innate spiritual treasure.

Jie Yin was so depressed that he almost got it.

After enduring for a long time, seeing that Taishang Taoist Patriarch had not yet appeared, Jieyin finally couldn't help it and shouted to the monk Taiyi Jinxian in front of him: "This fellow Taoist in front of me, can you exchange seats with Pindao? Don't worry, I have absolutely no intention of plotting against my Taoist friend’s treasure. It’s just that I am old and frail, and my eyes and ears are not good enough. I am afraid that I cannot hear the Taoist ancestor’s sermons due to the distance!”

"Fellow Taoist? Can you listen to what I have to say?"

Hey, why don't you say anything? I'm so anxious!

When he saw the Taiyi Golden Immortal in front of him without turning his head, he turned his gaze to Hongyun on the left and said: "Fellow Hongyun, it has been thousands of years since we parted ways in Zixiao Palace. I never thought that fellow Taoist would also break through to the right level." It's really gratifying to be in the holy realm, that poor Taoist has an merciless request."

Hongyun shook his head. He didn't know what Jie Yin wanted to pay attention to. He said helplessly: "Fellow Taoist Jie Yin, it's not that I don't want to change places with you, but that this position is the result of the shaker made by Tao Ancestor." , they are all inscribed with our names, if they change positions rashly and privately, they may make Dao Ancestor unhappy, and if they are kicked out of Tushita Palace then, they will really miss a huge opportunity."

"Besides, fellow Taoist and I are in the third row. Apart from this innate spiritual treasure reward, we must be almost the same. Could it be that fellow Taoist wants to get my red gourd?"

Jie Yin quickly waved his hand: "No, no, fellow Taoist Hongyun, please don't misunderstand me. Although the West is barren, such a treasure hunt is a poor Taoist who doesn't bother to do it."

Jie Yin said this, but his eyes were glaringly staring at the red gourd in Hongyun's arms, causing Hongyun to quickly hang the red gourd quietly to the left side of his waist.

Seeing Hongyun like this, Jie Yin looked away angrily and rolled his eyes again. Just as he was thinking about how to continue his verbal offensive, he saw two people flashing out in the middle of the front without any warning.

All the monks who had been looking forward to it for a long time looked up.

I saw one of them with white beard and hair, but smooth complexion. He was holding a whisk in his hand. He was wearing an orange Taoist robe and looked like an immortal. He must be the Taishang Taoist.

The other one was wearing a black Hanfu, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a majestic appearance. He looked very young, but not immature. The stubble on his face gave people a sense of vicissitudes of life.

"Who is this person, and why is he ranked with the Taoist ancestor?" The monks who did not know Yue Yuanzhou began to discuss quietly below.

"Yes, could it be that he is a disciple of Dao Ancestor? Why can't he see his cultivation level?"

"Humph, you are so ignorant that even Taoist Shenzhou doesn't know you!" Everyone who has been to Zixiao Palace to listen to sermons knows that this person is Taoist Shenzhou, so he immediately showed off to the guy next to his seat.

"Taoist Shenzhou? I felt that I could not go to the Zixiao Palace, so I have been practicing in seclusion until now. I have never heard of it. I wonder what ability this person has and dares to be on the same level as the Taishang Taoist?"

The man who had been to Zixiao Palace shook his head, looking admiring, and asked: "Have you ever heard of the matter of 'mandating from heaven'?"

"Although I have rarely traveled, all sentient beings in the wild don't know about this matter. Hiss! Could it be that Taoist Shenzhou did it?"

"You still have some brains!"

"Such a man of God appears here, does he also want to give a sermon to us?"

"Hush! Silence, silence, Taishang Daozu is about to speak."

The monks became quiet and looked towards the center.

But I saw the Supreme Being flicking the fly whisk, and then said: "Everyone who can come here is destined to the Tao, so please sit down peacefully."

Seeing all the monks sitting down, the emperor looked at Yue Yuanzhou and said, "Fellow Taoist Shenzhou!"

Yue Yuanzhou looked at the tens of thousands of people in the hall who were listening to the sermon, then shook his head and said to the Supreme Being: "I have nothing to say, I just came to take a look. It's not time to say anything yet. Daozu is here to speak your way. I Went out fishing.”

With that said, he turned around and walked out of the preaching place.

Seeing Yue Yuanzhou leaving just like that, all the monks were shocked.

Especially those sitting in the front rows all heard the words of Taishang Daozu calling him Taoist friends. This really calmed them down. After all, they originally thought that Yue Yuanzhou was the disciple of Taishang Daozu!

Just as the monks were thinking about something wrong, the Supreme Taoist Patriarch came to the central cloud bed and sat down, and then said: "I am the Supreme Supreme Being. I see that the path of sentient beings in the ancient times is bumpy, so I teach them the path of transcendence. I will preach in two parts. This sermon covers a total of nine thousand years. The first three thousand years of sermons are summarized. The middle three thousand years are for you to meditate and comprehend. The last three thousand years are about the Da Luo Dao, the Hunyuan Dao, and the Taiyi Dao. They are an overview of these three paths. "

In the opinion of the Supreme Leader, the realm of these monks today is too low, and the first sermon cannot be too profound. Therefore, the three paths of Daluo, Hunyuan, and Taiyi will only cover some superficial things in this sermon. , let the monks understand the existence of this thing, and then let them choose their own path. The real details will be left to the second sermon after these monks choose their own path.

Hongjun needs to conform to the way of heaven, so he must preach three times to achieve perfection, but the Supreme Being does not need to abide by the way of heaven and providence, he only needs to follow his own arrangements.

After explaining this, the Supreme Being began to preach.

Needless to say, the opening chapter is the Tao Te Ching, but it does not begin with the Tao Te Ching, which says, "The Way Can Be Tao," but with the Te Ching.

"The superior virtue is not virtuous, because it is virtuous; the inferior virtue is not virtuous, because it is not virtuous. The superior virtue is inaction, but there is no thought. The superior benevolence is in it, but there is no thought in it. The superior righteousness is in it, but there is thought in it. If you do something polite but fail to respond, you will grab your arms and throw it away. Therefore, you are losing the way. If you lose the way, you will be virtuous, and if you are losing virtue, you will be polite.

In the past, if we got one, the sky would be clear, the earth would be peaceful, the gods would be spiritual, the grains would be filled, the great vessels will be spared, the loud sound will sound loud, the elephant will be invisible but will react, and the Tao will move. "
