The Sword Master God's Journey to Face Slapping

"Forget it, what I said before, fellow Taoist, please just think that the old Taoist is talking nonsense, don't worry about it anymore." Zai Xuanyuan has not yet answered Taishang Laojun whether he can cut off him and the way of heaven with one sword. When the two of them were in contact, Lao Jun raised his wrinkled right hand slightly and gently stroked his white beard. A look of sadness appeared in his eyes. He sighed softly, and all the confusion and unwillingness faded away. All that remains is the open-mindedness and determination that the dust has settled, "This is what I did voluntarily."

From the beginning to the end, Lao Jun has never regretted the fact that he used his body to mend the way of heaven. He never only chose to use his body to mend the way of heaven because he had no second choice, nor did he choose to use his body to make up for the way of heaven to save the way of heaven that was on the verge of being broken. To be admired and admired by all the people - there are only five people in the three realms who know this. By choosing to do this, Laojun is just practicing his Tao and the path in his heart.

However, after Bu Tian Dao, in addition to sticking to the Moral Palace, Lao Jun could not even do the pure cultivation and inaction he wanted to do with all his heart, and it was even harder to feel the tranquility and beauty of the pure cultivation, which made him a little bit a little bit nervous. Just sadness and regret. After the Heaven-Building Dao, Laojun gradually no longer looked like himself, but gradually became the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao. In the process, his own wishes and feelings were erased, and he gradually became as vast and ruthless as the Heavenly Dao.

After replenishing the Heavenly Dao, Laojun became the spokesperson of half of the Heavenly Dao. He was completely tied to the entire Heavenly Dao and could not escape. Every word, deed, and move he made must comply with the requirements of the Heavenly Dao, every moment. He must act in accordance with the requirements of Heavenly Dao at all times, and he must do many things that he does not want to and does not need to get involved with under the urging of Heavenly Dao.

For example... he ignored the fact that the former Heavenly Emperor lost his throne and the fate of life and death disappeared under the calculation of Heavenly Dao. He even followed the will of Heavenly Dao and encouraged the situation behind the scenes, aggravating the death of the former Heavenly Emperor Yu Ye. Just because the former Heavenly Emperor Yu Ye has reached the limit allowed by Heaven's Dao, whether it is out of vigilance or preparedness, Heaven's Dao will not remove Yu Ye's uneasiness. Therefore, even if the former Heavenly Emperor has no merits or demerits in the three realms and between heaven and earth, he still It is inevitable that the destiny will be destroyed and people will perish under the calculation of heaven.

Another example is... watching with cold eyes the heavens plot against the underworld, using a fictitious "spirit" to descend to the human world, and then at the right time let that spirit get to know Pluto and Pluto, triggering Pluto's love, and advancing Pluto's love disaster. After arriving, Heaven deliberately let the "spirit" who fell in love with Pluto die. Pluto went to Qiongbi and fell to hell, but still could not find the soul of his lover, so he was in pain, causing his cultivation to regress, and he could hardly continue to protect the underworld, leaving the underworld wide open. The portal can no longer stay in one corner.

And the way of heaven did all this and repeatedly plotted against the underworld just because it couldn't figure out the origin of Wangchuan in the underworld. It didn't know the origin and origin of Wangchuan, and it instinctively rejected Wangchuan, which didn't belong to this world. That's why He plotted against Pluto, wanting to demote Pluto to his position and plunge the underworld into ownerless chaos, and then take this opportunity to drive out the river of forgetfulness that was constantly looping and flowing in the underworld. world.

The Supreme Lord knew all about Tiandao's plotting behind his back, but he couldn't reveal what Tiandao had done, not only because he had no one to talk to, but also because among Tiandao's people He couldn't say it anymore. And it's not just that he can't speak out, even because he has already complied with Tiandao, in many cases, if Tiandao forces it, he has to take action to help Tiandao's affairs behind his back.

Laojun is not saying that Tiandao is wrong. After all, Tiandao has no feelings. It is just the manifestation of the rules and Taoist intentions of this Heavenly Emperor. Everything Tiandao does is not out of selfishness, but just for the sake of the entire three realms. He There is no emotion at all, and there is no such thing as personal love. The way of heaven is just guiding thousands of living beings to their predetermined trajectories and destiny according to the direction that has been planned for this place step by step. The way of heaven is just doing what it is destined to do. Things to do.

It's just that the way of heaven is ruthless, but Laojun is affectionate. Although Laojun pursues quietness and has always ignored worldly affairs, he has his own feelings after all, unlike Tiandao who has no superfluous feelings. Therefore, the actions of the way of heaven are not in line with Laojun's original intention, which is often difficult for him to accept. And over time, the old man who used his body to make up for the way of heaven can no longer be regarded as a complete Supreme Laojun, and he gradually becomes the image of the way of heaven. .

This was not his original intention, but even so, he did not regret it. Originally, he just asked Xuan Yuan impulsively out of regret in his heart if he could cut off the connection between him and Heaven. But when the impulse passed, Lao Jun was a little less interested. He raised his eyebrows slightly and showed doubts. Xuan Yuan smiled and said: "I have never regretted it, but now I am not me and can no longer live according to my own wishes. I feel a little sad."

It was only because of this sadness and regret that he had the idea of ​​taking back his life. However, after the impulse, Lao Jun himself denied this choice. He sighed with emotion, and a simple and confused look passed over his old face. Returning to calmness, he whispered: "Even if my Taoist friends cut off the connection with the Heavenly Dao for me, once the Heavenly Dao collapses and collapses, the old Taoist will still choose to mend the Heavenly Dao with his body again."

"In this case, there is no need to trouble fellow Taoists to do useless work." After saying this, Laojun closed his eyes, and his state of mind once again returned to the state of modesty, purity, and inaction, and he was no longer disturbed by anything. It is unclear whether he is Taishang Laojun or the incarnation of heaven. Finally, Lao Jun waved his hand, flicked the fly whisk in his hand gently in the air, and sent Xuan Yuan away. He said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for coming and strengthening my Taoist heart and will."

It was precisely because Xuan Yuan's arrival that Taishang Laojun saw another option and the possibility of cutting off the connection with the way of heaven that Laojun was shaken in his heart. When there was a wavering in his heart, his Taoist heart and will went through a difficult transformation. After Lao Jun was overcome by his original sadness and the temptation of freedom, his Taoist heart and will became firmer and unwavering. Even if there are other temptations in front of him next time, he will not waver in his determination.

Only with wavering and firmness can the Taoist heart be tempered. Just as fine iron and steel can only be forged through hard work and exercise.

After having a chat with Laojun over tea, Xuan Yuan actually didn't have time to say anything, but he silently watched the process of Taishang Laojun from wavering to becoming more and more firm in his Taoist heart, which made him involuntarily Sheng lamented: Even the immortals, gods and Taoist ancestors still have moments when their hearts are shaken, they still cannot completely abandon all emotions and desires, and they still have flaws and gaps.

And this makes Xuan Yuan quite sympathetic, because he himself knows very well that although after traveling so many worlds, with his mastery of the avenue and the art of time and space, he is indeed much stronger than when he first ascended from the world of cultivation. But there is still a long way to go before he can reach perfection. He still has worries, regrets, and sadness in his heart. He still has a long way to go before he can completely overcome all this.

After a moment of silence, Xuan Yuan stood up and solemnly performed a sword salute to the Supreme Lord, as one would face the sages and masters. Perhaps Laojun is indeed inferior to him in terms of strength alone, but his firmness in the Taoist heart and his detachment in the face of temptations and choices are what Xuan Yuan needs to learn and admire.

I didn’t ask Laojun whether it was worth it to live in harmony with the way of heaven, because there was no need to ask. When anyone makes any decision, others don’t have to ask whether it is worth it. As long as the person who makes the decision is willing, it is enough. This is the way Laojun has chosen. Whether it is worth it or not, whether it is noble or despicable, there is actually no need to care too much. As long as you are practicing your own way, then everyone who does so is worthy of the respect of others. .

After coming out of the Daode Palace, Xuan Yuan felt like he had nothing to do for a moment. Xi Rang had already obtained five portions, except for the Emperor of Heaven's portion, but he had not had the chance to go to the Heavenly Court to get it. The matters entrusted by the Lord God have been settled. Xuan Yuan has almost visited all the places in the Three Realms where great powers live in seclusion. There is really no place worth going to. After all, Xuan Yuan, the busiest place in the mortal world, has no interest in going. Go around in a circle.

Zheng!

Just when Xuan Yuan was having a conversation with Taishang Laojun, and was surprised to realize that the matter had been completed unknowingly, and was feeling quite unmotivated and bored, the Poxiao Sword that had been warm in his Dantian suddenly appeared in his Dantian. After swimming around in a circle, a sonorous and sharp sword chant came out. The dark and simple long sword showed that it was surrounded by a sharp and unusual sword light. The black light floated and the sword pattern loomed.

"...I almost forgot." In the fierce sound of Poxiao Sword mixed with dissatisfaction and grievance, Xuan Yuan finally remembered what he had forgotten. After slapping his forehead, he suddenly realized, " We have promised to refine Po Xiao a long time ago! But it has been delayed again and again, and it hasn’t started yet.”

He also asked the Lord God for a large amount of spiritual materials for refining weapons, but he did not expect that he was moved by Taishang Laojun's conformity to the way of heaven and his firm determination to have no regrets, so he accidentally forgot about this matter. As a result, Po Xiaojian was dissatisfied, so he finally couldn't help but continue to remain silent, and came out to show off his presence, reminding Xuan Yuan that he had not yet fulfilled what he promised him.

Breaking Heaven Sword: Call people Xiaotiantian when you can use it, and throw it away in the cracks when you don't need it.

Scumbag!
