Chapter 3: Lao Tzu seeks the Tao and becomes a saint through the Three Purities
Of course, Xuan Chen can only think about it in his heart, but he still wants to save face, and it is impossible for him to do such a thing in public.
The old man in the Taoist robe also saw the eyes of the two people here and looked over. Xuanchen felt that he was being seen clearly as if he had no clothes on. Under the old man's gaze, no secrets could be hidden.
"I've seen old gods, but I don't know where they came from and where they went."
Seeing the old man's gaze, Xuan Chen no longer hesitated. Although he knew that this was Taiqing, he still stepped forward and asked knowingly.
"Oh, why do you think I am a god?" Taiqing Laozi said, twirling his beard.
"We are all wearing animal skins and walking around barefoot. The old god is dressed in a costume, but it is very different from us. Moreover, the place where our tribe is located is surrounded by wild beasts and mountains. There are still casualties when we travel together.
, how could an ordinary person get here without a trace of dust on his body?"
"You are quite clever, but I think you two are here just for me!"
I glanced at Xuan Chen and asked.
"I dare not deceive the Immortal. This ancient wilderness is full of dangers, and our lives are like grass. If not for the kindness of the Virgin Mother, who ordered that all tribes in the ancient wilderness should not invade our clan within 30,000 years, we mortals would have been buried in the belly of the demon, and even
The surrounding monsters that have not yet activated their intelligence have caused heavy losses to our clan."
As he said this, Xuan Chen knelt down and kowtowed like an old man from the Taiqing Dynasty.
"I also ask the immortal to take pity on me, accept me as his disciple, and teach us the immortal method. We will worship the immortal day and night."
After saying that, Xuanchen kowtowed twice again.
When Taiqing Laozi heard this, he was indeed calm and just counted with his fingers, but Xuanchen felt the breeze lingering around him, and an invisible force helped him up.
"You and I are not destined to be masters and disciples, so go back."
After saying this, Taiqing Laozi turned around and said to the dark-skinned young man who led the way.
"Your tribe is quite new. Let me continue to see it."
Looking at the two people's leaving figures, Xuan Chen did not continue to entangle him. I am too clear and I should not leave the human tribe for a while. If this time fails, there will be another time.
"Xuanchen, even if we can't worship immortals as our teachers, what do we, the human race, have to fear? One day I will let the world remember our names."
Seeing Xuan Chen's slightly lonely look and the two people leaving, Suiren patted Xuan Chen's shoulder and comforted him.
"It doesn't matter, the immortal will not leave for a while. With sincerity, gold and stone are opened, and I still have a chance."
Although Xuan Chen was a little reluctant, he was not discouraged.
"Besides, without the method of cultivation, how can we gain a foothold in this vast world? If the 30,000-year period comes, our clan will not have enough power and will have no right to speak. We will be nothing more than fish and meat to be slaughtered by others."
"Where there is a will, there is a way. Hard work will pay off. As long as I am sincere enough, I will definitely be able to impress the immortals."
Xuan Chen knows the realm of Taiqing Laozi, and he can't hide the troubles of the entire tribe from him. These words are usually said to Taiqing Laozi, and half of them actually say what is in his heart.
And although I have no intention of accepting disciples, if he wants to become a saint, he will definitely establish a human religion and teach the Golden Elixir Way.
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and I followed the dark-skinned young man around the tribe every day. I also visited the Suiren Tribe and the Jianyi Tribe, but I didn’t feel bored at all.
Xuan Chen went to visit me every day. Even if I didn't say a word, he would send me some fresh fruits every day to show my respect.
"Although you are very determined to seek the truth, you and I are not destined to be masters and disciples. Moreover, I practice the way of inaction and pay attention to letting nature take its course. It is not beautiful to force it."
Seeing Xuan Chen’s persistence for the past half month, I sat on the straw mat and said.
"The morning bacteria don't know Hui Shuo, and the worms don't know Spring and Autumn. We mortals are nothing compared to immortals. If we don't have the method of cultivation, how will our human race survive in this primitive world once the 30,000-year-old decree of the Holy Mother comes? We may be overthrown." I am in danger, please have mercy on me from the immortals."
Seeing that I finally responded, Xuanchen hurriedly knelt down and begged.
"The human race was created by Empress Nuwa. Even if thirty thousand years come, all the tribes in the prehistoric times will never dare to exterminate the human race. How can there be any danger of overthrowing the human race? And why should I teach you immortal magic?"
I asked back, I stayed in the human race for more than ten days, just to see why Nuwa became a saint, and I really have no interest in accepting disciples.
"Although I can't do anything around this mountain, I still know that the law of the jungle is the basic rule of the ancient world. The Virgin Mother can protect the human race for a while, but she cannot protect it for the rest of her life. The human race has to rely on itself in the end."
Xuan Chen replied, recalling the saying in later generations that the demon clan massacred humans to refine witch-slaying swords and used humans as food rations.
"Moreover, the Holy Mother created a clan from scratch, and her merits are immeasurable. If the Immortal does not hesitate to impart the Immortal Dharma to us, heaven and earth will also be grateful to the Immortal for his teachings."
Upon hearing Laozi's inquiry, Xuanchen immediately hit the railway while it was hot.
"Education? Enlightenment?"
I looked confused, as if I had some realization, and murmured in my mouth. The aura around me was changing, as if I had disappeared into this space.
Looking at me who was in a state of enlightenment, Xuanchen did not dare to disturb him and quickly retreated, taking the dark-skinned young man away with him.
Time has passed since ancient times, and half of Xun has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, visions occurred frequently around the thatched cottage where Lao Tzu was, and the atmosphere in the sky was dense, which coincided with the charm of heaven.
On this day, I was so blessed that my soul was filled with agitation.
He walked out of the gate of the thatched cottage where he gained enlightenment, and his aura became deeper and more majestic with every step he took. After taking ten steps, he stood up directly, and a huge holy power gradually spread to the surroundings.
"The way of heaven is above. Today I, Taiqing Lao Tzu, want to imitate the Taoist ancestor Hongjun and carry out teachings. Now I understand the golden elixir avenue, and I want to use it as a foundation to preach to the human race, teach people, and establish it."
I saw me standing in the air, looking up to the sky and swearing.
Heaven also began to respond, and suddenly the sky was filled with flowers, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and purple energy came thirty thousand miles from the east.
"As the leader of the Human Religion, I now use the innate treasure Tai Chi Diagram to suppress the fate of the Human Religion and hope that Heaven will learn from it."
I struck while the iron was hot, and with a wave of my hand, the innate treasure Taichi flew out of my sleeve, stretched out in the air, and burst out with thousands of divine lights. I saw the rotation of yin and yang, the changes of the four phenomena, and the strange phenomena in the sky.
As I finished speaking, the heavenly virtues suddenly appeared out of thin air, as much as ten thousand acres, which was about half of the last time Nuwa became a saint.
Merits are fleeting and split into two in an instant, with 20% integrated into the innate treasure Tai Chi Diagram and 80% integrated into Taiqing Laozi's body.
"Cut."
As the merits entered the body, Lao Tzu issued an order, and a figure that looked very similar to Lao Tzu flew out from Lao Tzu's soul. It was the self-corpse of Tai Qing Lao Tzu.
In the past, Patriarch Hongjun gave a sermon in Zixiao Palace and said that there are three ways to attain enlightenment.
The above method is to prove the Tao by force. It depends entirely on oneself. There is no need for Hongmeng Ziqi. The infinite power belongs to oneself. This way of proving the Tao can be called the strongest. However, as the Tao retreats and the heaven rules the world, no one can feel the complete law of the Tao.
, so no one succeeded.
The Chinese method of killing three corpses to achieve enlightenment was originally created by Patriarch Hongjun. He used innate spiritual treasures to entrust the three corpses of good, evil and self, and then merged the three corpses into one, pushing his own path to a state below that of a quasi-sage or a saint.
Supplemented with Hongmeng Purple Qi, you can become a saint. This method of becoming a saint is slightly weaker than using force to prove the Tao.
The following method is for merit and enlightenment. As long as you have enough merit, you can combine your merit with the Hongmeng Purple Qi and entrust your soul to the way of heaven. You can become a saint of heaven. This is the weakest way to realize the way.
As the head of the Three Pure Ones and transformed by Pangu Yuan Shen, how could I be willing to use the weakest method to prove the Tao? He retreated from the great way to prove the Tao with strength, so he used the method of killing three corpses to prove the Tao.
As the self-corpse was chopped out, Lao Tzu's good corpse and evil corpse appeared instantly, and then returned to the depths of the soul together with the self-corpse.
But the problem arises in the unity of these three corpses. No matter how I activate the three corpses, whether it is magic power, the power of the soul, or merit, the three corpses can never be united into one.
I even tried my best to burn the soul, the seven orifices bleed, the veins were exposed, and the three corpses were vaguely unstable. The three corpses still cannot fuse. The three pure souls are so powerful that they are actually showing signs of collapse.
"Alas!"
I sighed deeply and had no choice but to give up the union of the three corpses into one and use merit to achieve enlightenment.
This time it went very smoothly. A large amount of merit combined with Hongmeng Purple Qi also aroused the heaven-opening merit deep in Taiqing Yuanshen. In an instant, the soul was entrusted to the way of heaven, and a huge saint's pressure swept across the world in an instant.

Suddenly, all living beings in the ancient world knew that there was another saint in the world, and they all paid homage to him, and there was a sound of praise.
Although I became a saint, the shadow of the failure of the three corpses to merge into one has lingered in my heart for a long time. But since I established the human religion and civilized the human race, how could I break my promise and get fat?
With a wave of his hand, a ray of golden light instantly split into hundreds of thousands of rays, and the cultivation method of the golden elixir avenue was instantly thrown into the sea of consciousness of all human beings.
Laozi became a saint through his teachings, and naturally understood that the Sanqing, as the original spirit of Pangu, has the responsibility to educate all living beings. He only needs to establish a great teaching and preach to all living beings, and he can obtain great merits and good fortune.
I saw Laozi shouting: "We, the Sanqing Dynasty, were transformed by Pangu Yuanshen. We were born in accordance with the destiny of heaven. We should educate and transform all living beings. Second brother and third brother, if we have not become saints now, when will we wait!"
Kunlun Mountain.
At the beginning of the Yuqing Dynasty, when the Heaven of Heaven saw Lao Tzu becoming a saint in the Taiqing Dynasty, and heard Lao Tzu's words, he still didn't know what to do, so he immediately swore an oath to the way of heaven.
"The way of heaven is above. I, the Yuan Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, are complying with the destiny of heaven today. I should enable all living beings to understand the principles and keep order. Today, I will preach and educate all living beings. I will use the innate treasure Pangu Banner to suppress the fate. Anyone who is destined can enter my sect."<
/p>
"The way of heaven is above, and I am the one who reaches the heavens. I am willing to teach and transform all living beings. Today, I set up the Jiejiao to intercept a glimmer of life for all sentient beings. I use the innate supreme treasure, the Four Swords of Zhuxian, to suppress the fate. There is no difference in teachings, whether they are born in nature or acquired.
Anyone who has a heart for the Tao can come under my door."
As the two finished speaking, the Pangu flag and the Four Swords of Zhuxian flew out, and heaven immediately rained down boundless merits, which complemented the treasures. Flowers fell from the sky again, golden lotuses surged from the ground, purple air came from the east for thirty thousand miles, dragons and phoenixes became auspicious, and unicorns offered auspiciousness.
Infinite visions appear out of thin air.
The merits entered the body, triggering the heaven-opening merits deep in the two souls, and instantly combined with the Hongmeng Purple Qi. The souls relied on the way of heaven, and the infinite holy power once again swept across the entire prehistoric land.
All sentient beings in the wild once again bowed and worshiped, and there was a chorus of praise and praise.
All sentient beings in the ancient world were immersed in the shock of the three saints in one day, while Xuanchen was still immersed in the cultivation method in the sea of consciousness and could not extricate himself. It was not until I asked everyone to understand it first and explain it in detail three days later that they came back to their senses.
