Chapter 166: Do gods, immortals, and saints have different species?
The death of the ancestor of the Styx caused the Asura clan to lose its backbone. Some of them were converted to Western religions, some joined the Brahmanism founded by Brahma and other three people, and some of them, unable to control the murderous nature of their own blood, set off a bloody storm in the prehistoric world.
"Mercy, mercy!"
The Taoist Master Jie Yin looked at the converted Asuras and couldn't help showing a look of satisfaction on his face. However, when he thought of the recent commotion caused by Brahmanism, he couldn't help but frowned.
With the support of Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, he and Zhunti could not take action personally, and their disciples such as Yaoshi were a little short of their ability when facing Brahma, Shiva and others, as a result, Brahmanism has not only taken root in the Western land, but also attracted many Asuras and believers.
Such behavior is undoubtedly digging at the roots of Western religion.
The West is barren, and the three Xuanmen religions look down on it and disdain this little piece of land, which leads to the trend of Western religion becoming the only dominant force in the prehistoric West.
But now, the emergence of Brahmanism has begun to continuously snatch believers from Western religions. In the short term, perhaps no clues can be seen, but the Sage Jie Yin overlooked the long river of time and space and deduced countless futures, and discovered huge hidden dangers. He wished to eradicate Brahmanism immediately.
"The cycle of cause and effect will never end!"
The Taoist Jie Yin could not help but sigh: "Everything in the world has a cause, and every cause has an effect. This is also the trend of heaven, and it is impossible to avoid it!"
A saint does not go against heaven, and if he goes against heaven, he is not a saint. As a saint of heaven, he must naturally follow the trend of heaven. Some things cannot be changed even if you know them.
Thinking of this, the Taoist Jie Yin could not help but envy the Three Pure Ones. The Three Pure Ones were born with merits in creating the world and obtained the purple energy of primordial chaos. They first established a religion and became saints of the Heavenly Dao, and then found their own way through endless time and space, thus becoming the Golden Immortal of Hunyuan Daluo. No matter in terms of opportunity or strength, they were far superior to him and the Taoist Zhunti.
Although the two of them have found their own paths, it will be difficult for them to truly become Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian without first repaying the merits they owe to the Way of Heaven.
The Hongmeng Purple Qi can make a person become a saint of the Heavenly Dao. It is also the key to becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. It is also the shackles that trap the Jie Yin Taoist and the Zhunti Taoist.
Only when the West truly prospers can this key unlock the shackles on them.
……
"Is this the difference between a saint and a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian?"
Hou Tu and Tong Tian Jiaozhu are both saints and Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. Now that both of them are present, Han Yi can't help but ask about the difference between the two.
According to the explanation of Master Tongtian, he first attained the status of a saint, and then with the help of the saint's Dao fruit, he comprehended the way of heaven, and finally successfully attained the status of a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
"That's right!"
Patriarch Tongtian explained: "The saint is a stepping stone, the prototype of the Dao fruit, and the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian is the product of the further transformation of the Dao fruit! Just like what you told me before, those future academies, becoming a saint means that you are qualified to enter the academy, but... only when you become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian can you be considered to have graduated from the academy!"
Han Yi seemed to be thinking about something.
College students are college students, and graduated college students are also college students, but the value of the two is not at the same level at all.
The fruit of the sage's way is equivalent to the certificate given to you by the heaven. As long as you proceed step by step and complete your studies, you will naturally be able to bear the fruit of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian's way.
Tongtian Patriarch's metaphor was very vivid and Han Yi understood it after a little thought. He immediately asked, "Have all the Heavenly Dao saints in the prehistoric world obtained the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit?"
"no!"
Tongtian Patriarch shook his head and said, "Taiqing and Yuanshi did pick it, but Nuwa cannot be said to have picked it. She awakened her memory of being the Chaos Demon God in the past and restored her past Dao fruit! As for Jieyin and Zhunti, they have not taken that step yet because they owed merit to the Heavenly Dao!"
"I see!"
Han Yi nodded and asked again, "Is there a way to skip the sage fruit and directly obtain the fruit of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian? I remember that the legendary Yangmei Daxian did not seem to achieve the sage fruit, but directly achieved the Hunyuan Daluo and then left for Chaos!"
"Disaster!"
Master Tongtian said in a deep voice: "The Great Immortal Yangmei was the Chaos Demon God in the past. Rather than saying that he has attained the Dao of Chaos, it is better to say that he has recovered his past Dao fruit!"
Upon hearing this, Han Yi fell into deep thought.
The fact that Master Tongtian said "difficult" instead of "impossible" shows that there is hope, just like the fifty ways of the Tao, forty-nine of which are evolved by nature, and one is missing.
The ancient world was born endlessly. Among them, Ancestral Dragon, Yuanfeng, Shi Qilin, Donghuang Taiyi, and the Ancestor of the Styx, which one of them is not a rare hero throughout the ages?
But no one has successfully crossed that barrier with his own strength.
It can be seen from this!
This road is almost a dead end!
Hou Tu also spoke up: "There was a reason why the Wu Clan went to war with the Demon Clan in the past, and that was to seize the Chaos Bell in the hands of Donghuang Taiyi, to try to emulate the Father God and prove the truth with force!"
"And Emperor Jun wants to gather the luck of the entire prehistoric world to help him break through that barrier!"
"It can be said that whether it is the Dragon Han Calamity, the battle between Tao and Demon, or the witch and lich calamity, the fundamental purpose is to prove the Tao!"
"The innate sacred footsteps may be as bright as the sun in the eyes of you acquired creatures, but compared with those former Chaos Demon Gods, they still pale in comparison!"
"In order to prove their Dao, they can only think of various ways. Gathering their luck to prove their Dao is the most likely method deduced by many great masters!"
"If I ask for the way in the morning, I can die in the evening!" Although Han Yi was still very far away from that realm, he could understand the feelings of those great masters through the words of Tongtian Jiaozhu and Hou Tu. He couldn't help but say, "For some things, if you don't try them, how can you know that they are impossible?"
When one reaches the realm of great supernatural powers, his Tao heart is as hard as Chaos Divine Gold, indestructible. He is so sure of his own Tao that he will not turn back until he hits a wall.
In order to attain enlightenment, one can use any means necessary and abandon all external things.
A general's success is built on the bones of hundreds of thousands of people, and the same is true for spiritual practice. Under the feet of every famous and powerful person are the blood and corpses of hundreds of millions of lives.
"Work hard to improve your cultivation!" Tongtian Patriarch patted Han Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Those who accomplished great things in the past not only had extraordinary talents, but also had perseverance! Since you have become my disciple, I believe that other saints have noticed you. Your future is destined to be bumpy!"
Han Yi nodded. Tongtian said, "Fellow Daoist Hou Tu wants to establish a witch cult while preaching. With your current cultivation level, you are not qualified to listen to the sermon. But I have made an agreement with Daoist Hou Tu to let you be a welcoming boy, responsible for receiving the many Daluo Jinxian and great masters who come!"
Hou Tu's sermon this time is mainly about the great path of reincarnation and the attainment of authentic saints. It is estimated that those who come to listen to the sermon will be at least Daluo Jinxian.
Han Yi is a golden immortal. Even though he has a close relationship with Tongtian Jiaozhu and Houtu, he will inevitably cause some dissatisfaction if he is listed together with many powerful people.
But it’s different for boys!
As a welcoming boy arranged by Hou Tu, he represents Hou Tu's face. No matter who the visitor is, he will give him some face and will not embarrass him easily.
Hou Tu also smiled and said, "Young friend, you shouldn't mind, right? The Wu clan men are all big and strong, and they are not suitable to be the welcoming guests, so I thought of you!"
"It doesn't matter!"
Han Yi heard this, but he didn't care at all and said: "Think about Haotian, he was just a welcoming boy in Zixiao Palace in the past, but now he sits on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven! Are there any gods or saints? He is just a welcoming boy. I, Han Yi, may not be much worse than Haotian!"
The Tao cannot be taught lightly, and the Dharma cannot be passed on lightly. Ordinary people have no way to listen to such a profound and great Dao. Since the opportunity is right in front of him, Han Yi naturally does not want to miss it.
……
For practitioners, a hundred years is just a blink of an eye. In the human world, decades of spring and autumn and the rise and fall of several generations are just a blink of an eye in the eyes of those with great supernatural powers.
On this day, the sound of heaven was mighty, the stars were shining, the purple clouds were colorful, and golden light was shining. Endless immortal energy lingered around Mount Buzhou, giving this once number one sacred mountain in the ancient world an extremely sacred feeling.
"Welcome, senior, to Buzhou Immortal Mountain!"
Han Yi and Zhi Yi stood on the left and right at the entrance of the Buzhou Mountain Temple, welcoming passing guests with smiles on their faces.
The first one is Master Du'e, whom he has dealt with several times!
"This……"
When Master Du'e saw Han Yi working as a greeter, he was a little surprised, but when he thought of Master Tongtian, he nodded normally.
Afterwards, people with great supernatural powers such as Zhen Yuanzi, Demon Master Kunpeng, Jiuling Yuansheng, Queen Mother of the West, Yinglong, Xuanniao, Shenlong, and Kong Xuan also gradually arrived.
only……
Not many people care about Han Yi!
However, Xuanniao had seen Han Yi several times because he had assisted King Tang in the past. It seemed that he remembered something and couldn't help but look at him and stay for a while longer.
The Emperor of Heaven, Haotian, together with the Queen Mother of the West, and the other Golden Immortals from Heaven, including the Barefoot Immortal and the Immortal Fu Yuan, also descended on Mount Buzhou a moment later.
"What a blessing to be your friend!"
As if he was thinking of his days as a gatekeeper in Zixiao Palace, the Emperor of Heaven not only glanced at Han Yi a few times, but also casually handed him a few nine thousand year old peaches.
"The Emperor of Heaven praises you!"
Han Yi responded with a smile.
At the beginning, he was wearing the alias of "Yu Chen Dao Jun" and had a pleasant chat with the Emperor of Heaven. Now that they meet again, they can be regarded as having established a good relationship.
"Junior Brother Han Yi?"
Before Haotian had gone far, Taoist Duobao arrived with the Golden Spirit Holy Mother, the Wudang Holy Mother, the Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, and the Seven Immortals and other core disciples of the Jiejiao.
Taoist Duobao was puzzled and asked, "Junior brother, why are you here as a welcoming boy?"
"Junior brother?"
Upon hearing this, all the disciples of Jiejiao, except for the Golden Spirit Mother, were stunned.
Han Yi smiled and said, "This is all arranged by the teacher! I am only a Golden Immortal, so I am not qualified to listen to the teachings. So they arranged for me to be a welcoming boy!"
"I see!"
Taoist Duobao nodded, and then introduced to the Holy Mother Wu Dang and Holy Mother Gui Ling: "This Junior Brother Han Yi is the teacher's new disciple!"
"Personally passed down?"
The Holy Mother Wu Dang was shocked when she heard this.
She had been in seclusion during this period, but she didn't know that Master Tongtian had accepted another disciple.
The seven attendant fairies headed by Wu Yunxian, as well as Lu Yue, Luo Xuan, the Fire Spirit Mother, Zhao Gongming and others, could not help but reveal expressions of shock.
They don’t understand why Master Tongtian would accept a disciple who is at the Golden Immortal level?
but……
These words were said by Duobao Taoist, the eldest brother of Jiejiao, so they must be true.
Therefore, no one questioned it.
