Chapter 838: The Great Dao is simple
Zhang Daohe was speechless and unable to refute.
Yes, the attitude Chen Guanlou had shown along the way was one of indifference toward the so-called ancient tomb. Toward immortal methods, it was the same attitude of indifference.
It seemed that apart from money, nothing could arouse the other party's interest. So-called piety naturally couldn't be talked about.
He took a deep breath and lit the incense candles.
It was truly a miracle.
After a thousand years, the incense candles were not only well-preserved but could also be lit smoothly.
"Could it be that the incense candles were also left by immortals?"
"Possible! Hold your heart and be one, worship piously, don't have any messy thoughts. Sincerely apologize to the tomb owner; we won't take a needle or a thread from the tomb chamber, nor any treasures. We only seek the immortal opportunity, to improve our martial path cultivation, and pursue the supreme martial path. We have absolutely no intention of blaspheming the dead. We ask the tomb owner to give us a sliver of life and allow us to leave the underground palace smoothly!"
Chen Guanlou said one sentence, and Zhang Daohe knelt on the ground and recited it piously.
Seeking opportunity, seeking a way to live, promising not to take any treasures, not even touching a piece of silver. Wealth is an external object. Only the martial path is eternal!
Inserting the incense candles into the incense burner, they kowtowed and worshipped.
The smoke drifted toward the air in threads, gathering but not dispersing, like a dream and illusion!
"Zhong Susu!"
Chen Guanlou exclaimed!
Why would Zhong Susu suddenly appear?
Zhong Susu looked back at him, her gaze indifferent, with a smear of blood at the corner of her mouth.
"You're injured?" Chen Guanlou stepped forward hurriedly. "What's going on? Where is your master Cheng? Where are your fellow disciples? Why aren't the disciples of your Lingxiao Palace together with you?"
Zhong Susu's gaze turned toward the ground, a flash of misery in her eyes.
Following her gaze, Chen Guanlou then discovered that the ground was full of corpses, so many people had died. Looking at their attire, half of them were disciples of the Lingxiao Palace.
"Did you kill your fellow disciples? You... Zhong Susu, speak!"
Zhong Susu smiled miserably and opened her mouth to speak.
But he couldn't hear the other party's voice.
"What are you saying, why can't I hear? What exactly is going on, after you entered the underground palace, what did you encounter?"
Zhong Susu opened her mouth to speak again, but he still couldn't hear anything.
"What are you saying, you... could it be that all of this is fake again."
In an instant, Zhong Susu's image disappeared.
Jiang Yitian stood in front in blood-stained clothes, holding a sharp sword, the sharp sword inserted into the ground to support his body. It was clearly the appearance of having just ended a life-and-death battle.
And around him, many corpses lay fallen. There were corpses of disciples from major sects, corpses of monsters that looked strange, and corpses of living dead. The living dead were all mummified corpses, fully two or three meters long. It was like a person who had been dried after death and then stretched.
The monsters had three heads and six arms; this was stating facts, not an exaggerated description.
Looking at the situation around, the previous battle was very intense; people were dead, and only one Jiang Yitian was alive.
The scene shifted again, and he saw Zhou Mobai, this irritable maniac, destroying the underground palace with violence to find a way out. Whoosh, a black shadow attacked, and Zhou Mobai received a sword.
The black shadow attacked again, and Zhou Mobai became even more irritable and furious. Black mist rolled, and only the sound of weapons could be heard, with no shadow of a person seen.
The scene shifted again, and Cheng Lingzi fought alone against the monk Liao Chen and the Grandmaster of the Jixia Academy, while Wei Wubing remained unmoved, staying out of it.
The scenes became faster and faster, and the followers of the White Lotus Sect entered the underground palace, one after another becoming cannon fodder. Those who didn't become cannon fodder also died due to illusions and killing each other.
He saw various strange-looking monsters.
It turned out that the paths others chose were so dangerous, not only with illusions and mechanisms but also monster attacks, bug gnawing, and poison gas attacks. All kinds of dangers that could be thought of and couldn't be thought of were encountered.
It turned out that the path he chose was indeed the safest one. Although it was also full of hardships and he fell into traps several times, he managed to walk to the main tomb chamber in one piece.
Whoosh, he was pulled back to reality.
Still in the ancient tomb chamber, without Zhong Susu.
Zhang Daohe was still kneeling on the ground, his expression like crying and laughing.
He was very curious about what the other party had seen.
Immediately after, he saw the other party hold his heart and become one, entering cultivation.
He started cultivating just like that?
Chen Guanlou sat on the ground, staring blankly at the incense burner in front, looking at the smoke gathering and dispersing in the air.
What did he seek? Did he have any requests? What did he want to seek?
He actually discovered that he seemed to have no requests. Could this be the reason why the incense burner showed him the current situation of others? Because Zhang Daohe had requests in his heart, so he gave him the opportunity?
This incense burner was very strange.
And so, he entered the 'Epiphany' state and began to cultivate the "Ascension Record"!
In the main tomb chamber, as long as you don't move the stone coffin, don't disturb the tomb owner, don't move the gold and silver jewelry inside, and don't move the property inside, it must be safe.
The candle fire that had been silent for a thousand years was burning hard.
Time passed second by second.
Suddenly, several images flashed through Chen Guanlou's mind. Very eerily, those images, he was very sure he had never seen before.
There was an immortal elder with white hair and long beard sitting on a high platform lecturing, and there seemed to be many people around, all blurry. The lecturing elder said one sentence after another, deafening, and everyone was intoxicated.
And he only heard one sentence, "The Great Dao is simple!" which poured directly into his brain and into his heart.
The Great Dao is simple!
The Great Dao is simple!
A universal saying, but what exactly does it mean, how to understand it, a thousand people have a thousand kinds of Great Dao is simple. Everyone has their own Dao, how to achieve the Great Dao is simple, everyone has different insights.
At this moment, he suddenly realized his own Dao, realized what the Great Dao is simple is. The lecturing elder's sentence "The Great Dao is simple" was like an enlightenment, a true enlightenment!
He realized!
The fifth chapter of the "Ascension Record" that had stuck him for several years was very smooth, without any obstruction, like flowing water, and it broke through so gently! It smoothly entered the sixth chapter of the "Ascension Record".
Suddenly, he woke up from the 'Epiphany' and returned to reality.
Zhang Daohe was still cultivating, and looking at the situation, it should be very smooth.
He took a deep breath, got up, and came to the incense burner.
The incense candles had burned to the end. They burned really slowly. He felt that at least a day and a night, or even two days and two nights, had passed, because his stomach was growling with hunger at this moment, feeling incomparably hungry. As if a starving ghost had been reincarnated.
Being so hungry, he must have been hungry for several days.
The incense candles could really burn!
The short incense candles could actually burn for several days.
He took out dry rations and hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls, at least not letting his stomach continue to growl.
While eating, he observed the surroundings. If several days had really passed, why hadn't a third person entered the main tomb chamber?
Or was it that the main tomb chamber was strange? He and others were in different spaces.
Whether it was, he would know by looking at whether the wealth in the next tomb chamber had decreased.
The next tomb chamber was still in the appearance of his memory, with various treasures scattered and placed.
After he was full and satisfied, snap, the incense candles broke, the burning ended, the smoke dispersed in the blink of an eye, and disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Daohe woke up from seclusion, took a deep breath, his expression a bit unbelievable!
