Volume 2: The Great Tribulation of the Lich Chapter 165 Daozu Tells About Killing the Three Corpses
Daoist Patriarch Hongjun sat on the high platform of Zixiao Palace, looking at the three thousand empty cushions below the stage, his calm face showing some ripples.
"They are not the kind of people who are easy to worry about!"
At the gate of Zixiao Palace
“This…” Haotian was also very puzzled. Based on his experience from the last sermon, someone should have come within five hundred years.
"Wait a little longer. Senior brothers and the others have seats, so they won't be as anxious as last time!"
"Okay!" Yao Ji nodded and continued to wait.
The two of them did not slack off either, staring straight into the void, waiting, waiting...
Six hundred years, seven hundred years, one thousand years, two thousand years...
The two of them waited anxiously and finally saw the chaos tide begin to surge.
"Sister, it's coming!" Haotian breathed a sigh of relief, it's finally here!
The first to come out were the Three Pure Ones. Just as Haotian was about to step forward to salute, Nuwa came out, followed closely by Zhunti and Jieying.
Then, the chaotic tide surged violently, as if a huge monster walked out of the chaos.
Haotian felt a powerful will and couldn't help but frowned.
When Haotian saw more than two thousand Taoists appearing together, pushing and shoving each other, talking and laughing, and having a great time, he was a little confused.
So you haven't come to Zixiao Palace for more than two thousand years, and have been holding meetings in chaos, right?
The Taoists entered the Zixiao Palace together. Those who had seats walked to their seats, and those who had no seats filled the vacancies.
No more, no less, still three thousand people.
They were all quiet and there was no noise.
Daozu saw that everyone had taken their seats and said, "Very good!"
Although it was clearly a compliment, the Taoists felt their hearts tighten and they quickly lowered their heads, silently waiting for the Taoist's next words.
Mingyu shrank even more, he felt that the great god's back was still so broad.
Little Phoenix didn't feel any burden. Instead, she secretly looked around Zixiao Palace, sensing Tuanzi's presence.
Unfortunately, the Taoist didn't say anything else. When the three thousand years were up, he began to preach.
"Those who can get rid of it, look inside their hearts, the heart has no heart; look outside their bodies, the body has no body; look far away at objects, the objects have no objects. Once these three are realized, only emptiness can be seen..."
"Observing emptiness is also emptiness, emptiness has nothing to be empty of; since what is empty is nothing, nothingness is also nothing; since nothingness is nothing, it is always quiet; since there is nothing to be quiet about, how can desire arise? Since desire does not arise, that is true tranquility..."
"The true constant responds to things, the true constant obtains nature; the constant response is always calm, and the constant is always pure and calm. With such purity and calmness, one gradually enters the true way; once one enters the true way, it is called attaining the way. Although it is called attaining the way, in fact there is nothing to be gained; for the sake of transforming sentient beings, it is called attaining the way; those who can understand it can pass on the holy way..."
Holy Way?
Is Daozu going to continue talking about the subsequent avenues?
The focus of the last sermon was the foundation, and the key was the origin of the Tao.
It's obvious that he's going to use a big move this time!
Three thousand worldly people concentrate their minds and calm their spirits, constantly listening, constantly feeling, and constantly verifying.
Most of them listened with great interest, and from time to time they would gleam with mysterious light. Their principles became more and more profound, and their path became wider and wider, and they went further and further.
A small number of latecomers found it very difficult to listen, because they did not attend the first lecture and fell behind in the earlier courses, and had no chance to make up for it. They could only rely on their own foundation to catch up on the later part.
Those with a solid foundation are slightly better off and can barely keep up with Hongjun’s preaching speed; but those with a weak foundation will suffer much more!
Only at this time did they understand what it meant to be one step ahead and all steps ahead, and what it meant to be one step behind and all steps behind!
Of course, not every first comer can keep up with the progress of the Taoist Master’s teachings, and not every first comer can understand the Taoist Master’s wonderful teachings. There are also “poor students” among them!
For example, Hou Tu!
Hou Tu was also quite helpless at this time. She thought that since she had spent hundreds of thousands of years comprehending the content of the last sermon, it would be easier for her to listen to the sermon this time.
But the reality is very cruel. Without a soul, you will suffer a loss. I didn’t quite understand it last time, and I still didn’t quite understand it this time.
Fortunately, Hou Tu has experience in listening to sermons. Isn't it that I just don't understand? I wrote it down and went back to understand it. I will kill you!
Hou Tu had a ferocious face, but she was also engraving Taoist texts and writing the Great Dao in her spiritual world.
This time the sermon continued for nine thousand years and then stopped.
Three thousand years ago, the Taoist master expounded the Dao in detail. He continued with the content of the last time, expounding on the sequel of the Three Thousand Great Daos, pointing out the specific extension methods of the Great Dao, explaining the changes of the Great Dao, and allowing the great masters who entered the Dao to avoid many detours.
In the past three thousand years, Daozu has been talking about ancient methods! Ancient methods are the true methods that have been passed down since the beginning of the world. Daozu specifically describes the ancient methods of each stage from the earth level to the ultimate Daluo.
Three thousand years later, Daozu is talking about the present law! The present law is the way of immortality that Daozu himself follows, and the core of it is the Three Corpses Slashing Law!
When the nine thousand years were up, Daozu stopped and said, "Nine thousand years have come. For the next thousand years, you can ask questions and I will answer them."
The Taoists had finally waited for this moment, and they had too many doubts in their hearts.
"May I ask, Master, where can I find the Three Corpses Slaying Technique?" Lao Tzu was the first to ask the question.
Daozu replied: "To kill the Dao with three corpses is also to prove the Dao. To kill the thoughts three times is to prove one's own Dao three times."
Nuwa asked, "If all three thoughts are killed, will it be merciless?"
"The three corpses are good thoughts, evil thoughts, and self-obsession. Killing the three corpses does not mean eliminating lust, but allows those who practice Taoism to see their true nature more clearly and get closer to Tao." Taoism ancestor answered Nuwa's question patiently.
"Teacher, may I ask which is stronger, the ancient method or the modern method?" A Taoist asked a nonsense question.
The Taoist master said: "No one has ever proved the truth in the ancient way, but the modern way is started by me!"
The old man is so domineering!
Mingyu had to admit that she was fooled by the old man!
"Grandmaster, could you please explain it in more detail?" Mingyu took over the conversation considerately, giving Daozu more room to speak.
Daozu nodded imperceptibly and said, "The Three Corpses Slash Dao uses the spiritual treasure to entrust the three thoughts, thus achieving the goal of turning the virtual into the real. The strength of the three corpses' bodies depends on the quality of the spiritual treasure.
The best treasure is the Supreme Treasure, which can inherit the full combat power of the main body. The next best is the Supreme Treasure, which can inherit 90% of the combat power of the main body, and so on."
“May I ask the Taoist Master, does the thing used to chop the corpse require an innate spiritual treasure?” Kunpeng returned in his true form this time.
"Not really. The acquired merit spiritual treasure can also be used to kill corpses!"
“It’s okay, it’s okay!”
Many Taoists finally put down their worries. Many of them did not have innate spiritual treasures. Although it was difficult to obtain acquired spiritual treasures, there was still hope, right?
"Can the three corpses attain enlightenment?" Taoist Zhunti suddenly asked.
Daozu nodded, "Yes!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room rejoiced.
The Three Corpses can realize the truth, so doesn’t that mean that the Three Corpses’ cultivation can improve on their own? And the Three Corpses are you, so the truth that the Three Corpses realize is not the truth that you realize, right?
If the three corpses are killed, wouldn't that quadruple the speed of enlightenment?
fragrant!
It smells so good!
He has the fighting power, the speed of enlightenment, and a bright future, which leads him directly to Hunyuan!
Next, the Taoists asked one question after another, mainly focusing on the method of beheading corpses to prove their Taoism.
Daozu answered them one by one, pointing out the key points, and was very patient.
The two brothers Zhunti and Jieyin muttered to themselves, "That guy deserved to lose!"
Jie Yin looked at Zhunti obscurely, "How to choose?"
Zhunti didn't even think about it and winked, "Just take it, don't give it up!"
Being inclusive is the right way!
