Chapter 714: One Qi Becomes Three Pure Ones
Li Daoxuan did not believe it at first, but looked at the old master with suspicion.
How do we know that it is not the inner demon of becoming a celestial being?
The old Taoist priest seemed to see the doubt in his heart and said calmly: "Originally, this was indeed a test of your inner demon, but I have taken the opportunity to meet you in your place."
"Otherwise, you will be trapped in this world for at least several years before you have any hope of escaping. By then, it will be too late."
Li Daoxuan believed it a little in his heart, because he had originally failed to break through and was about to die, but for some reason he suddenly entered the inner demon trial to become a celestial immortal.
There must be a master helping behind the scenes.
But he couldn't completely let down his guard.
"Your Majesty is indeed trustworthy. You said that you would give me a gift after I become a celestial being. Now, can you tell me what it is?"
The inner demon will know everything Li Daoxuan knows, but no matter how powerful the inner demon is, it cannot really create something out of nothing.
Whether it is true or false, Li Daoxuan will be able to tell after he gives the gift.
The old Taoist priest glanced at him, smiled and shook his head, saying: "You are really cunning, kid. Well, I will give you the gift in advance."
He bent his finger and a three-colored divine light flew out, transforming into a three-petal lotus. The branches and leaves flowed with infinite Taoist rhythm, as if containing the secrets of the universe and the wonders of nature.
The sound of the Tao even rang out in the void, like ancient bells and jade chimes, causing resonance between heaven and earth.
The three lotus flowers fell into Li Daoxuan's Niwan Palace, emitting thousands of rays of light, and actually wanted to occupy the center and squeeze out the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Book.
This was something Li Daoxuan had never encountered before.
Faced with the provocation of the three lotus flowers, the "Book of Subduing Demons" did not ignore it. Instead, it trembled slightly as if it felt the threat, and emitted a brilliant mysterious light.
After a brief stalemate between the two sides, the three lotuses finally gave in and ran to the position below the "Book of Demon-Slaying".
Li Daoxuan's soul touched the lotus, and in an instant, an ancient name appeared in his mind.
"One Qi becomes three pure things..."
His heart was shaken violently, and he found it somewhat unbelievable. However, as the method of this ancient magical power gradually unveiled its mystery to him, ancient and profound words emerged in his mind. He was like a savage who walked out of a cave for the first time and suddenly looked up at the starry sky.
The stars are twinkling and the moon is hanging high in the sky. Suddenly I realize that the world is so high and vast.
If you don’t climb a high mountain, you don’t know how high the sky is; if you don’t stand by a deep stream, you don’t know how thick the earth is.
If there is any magical power in Taoism that is more impressive than the Thirty-Six Heavenly Powers, it is undoubtedly the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones, which is known as the highest secret art of Taoism.
The Tao Te Ching says, Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.
According to legend, after Pangu created the world and fell, his spirit was divided into three, becoming the Three Pure Ones. Later, the Three Pure Ones listened to teachings in Zixiao Palace and were accepted as disciples by the Taoist founder Hongjun. One Tao was passed on to the three friends, and the other was divided into the Chan and Jie sects.
The secret technique of transforming from one Qi into the Three Pure Ones belongs exclusively to the Three Pure Ones transformed from Pangu's primordial spirit, and is equivalent to their innate magical powers.
The "Yunji Qi Qian" also has records about the transformation of the Three Pure Ones from one qi, saying that the Three Pure Ones were all transformed from the primordial energy of chaos and the innate qi.
Yuanshi Tianzun is endowed with the Qi of nature and existed before all things in the universe; Lingbao Tianzun symbolizes the Hunyuan period when chaos began to clear and yin and yang began to separate; in the Taichu period, all things began to exist in heaven and earth, and Laojun rode the Qi of the void down, incarnated as Laozi, taught and preached, and saved people through disasters.
One becomes three, three become one, when used, it is divided into three, but its essence is always one.
Li Daoxuan immediately no longer had any doubts about the old Taoist priest's identity. After all, this thing could not be faked. To put it bluntly, with his own cultivation background, he couldn't make it up even if he wanted to.
"Disciple Taichong, homage to the Heavenly Lord!"
Li Daoxuan immediately bowed and saluted.
The old Taoist priest waved his hands and . He woke up early and we couldn't hold on for much longer. And you were framed by him, so you went astray and almost died."
Wait, framed by Him?
Li Daoxuan was a little puzzled.
The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "Who guided you to take the Dragon Tiger Golden Pill and the Queen Mother's Peaches at the same time?"
Li Daoxuan was stunned, and then his pupils trembled, and a chill rose in his heart.
"Tui Bei Tu?"
The old Taoist nodded and said, "The Tui Bei Tu was used by him. Now he has initially awakened, and his soul has reached the three thousand worlds. Your Tui Bei Tu has been affected by him invisibly, and he wants to kill you."
Li Daoxuan thought back to the questions answered by Tuibei Tu and indeed noticed something strange.
For problems that cannot be calculated, Tuibei Tu will show various unrecognizable characters, and for problems that can be calculated, it will give a clear answer.
For example, it would directly say that Yang Yuhuan died in the 17th year of Kaiyuan.
But as for taking the golden elixir and peaches at the same time, its answer was that it might die, and then it changed the subject and said that there was a very small possibility of transformation and becoming a powerful innate god or demon.
This answer is quite instructive.
Li Daoxuan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He had just woken up, but his consciousness had directly and silently affected the "Tui Bei Tu" and almost led him to death.
The other party's terror was beyond his imagination.
"Among the six saints, Zhunti, Tongtian and Nuwa have already fallen, but we are not completely hopeless."
The old Taoist priest looked at him with deep eyes and a look of expectation.
"We have waited too long for this day and have paid too much. Taichong, whether you can survive the catastrophe depends on you."
Li Daoxuan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Tianzun, it's not that I don't want to work hard, but even saints like Nuwa, Zhunti, and Tongtian have fallen. Even if I become a celestial being, what can I do?"
Half of the six saints died, which made Li Daoxuan feel a little desperate.
The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "He is not completely unharmed either, and you underestimate yourself too much, Taichong. Do you know that we have been waiting for your arrival for 36,500 years?"
He stared into Li Daoxuan's eyes and said, "Countless gods and Buddhas voluntarily went to die, gave up their thousand-year-old Dao fruits, and were devoured by that monster, just to wait for this day."
Li Daoxuan was shocked. Volunteering... to die?
Could it be that those gods and Buddhas who fell in heaven and Lingshan knew in advance that they would encounter disasters?
Why didn't they flee? What was all this all about?
“Tianzun…”
Li Daoxuan took a deep breath and said, "I want to know everything. Tell me all your plans!"
The old Heavenly Master shook his head and said, "It's too early. Only when you truly become a Heavenly Immortal can you know everything. Otherwise, all your efforts may go to waste."
Originally, Li Daoxuan had planned to tell everything when he attained celestial immortality, and this was also part of his plan.
But unfortunately, Li Daoxuan was misled by "Tui Bei Tu" and took a risk, and almost died. He had to show up early and use up his limited strength to help.
"But you don't need to worry too much. After you break through the Heavenly Immortal Realm, an old friend will come and tell you everything."
He comforted Li Daoxuan, his figure becoming fainter and fainter. Before disappearing, he stretched out his old hand, gently stroked Li Daoxuan's head, and revealed a kind smile.
At this moment , he is no longer the mysterious Taiqing Daode Tianzun, but the white-haired old man who likes to fish in Longhu Mountain.
"We will support you for a few more years. Taichong, you will have to walk the rest of the way alone."
Next, he will also fall into a deep sleep, using all his strength to restrict His complete awakening.
Li Daoxuan sensed a familiar aura. He stopped addressing Tianzun and blurted out, "Old Master——"
The old Taoist priest's body completely dissipated.
Before leaving, he left behind a very valuable message.
"The key to defeating Him is to preserve the Tang Dynasty. No matter what, we must not let the Tang Dynasty fall."
