Chapter 147: The Valiant Master
He Pingsheng had actually heard of this saying before.
When Qiao Huizhu gave him 【Enlightenment Tea Leaves】, she said that this thing was used to improve comprehension.
Comprehension is used to understand the great principles between heaven and earth.
But he didn't really understand what it was like.
So he said: "Disciple doesn't know!"
"Hmm!" Tai Xu said: "It's normal that you don't know!"
"The so-called Dao barrier is a cognitive barrier to heaven and earth."
"A cognitive barrier to the power of rules and principles between heaven and earth!"
"For example, now, I ask you what is fire?" The old man turned his head to He Pingsheng's side: "You would say, fire is fire!"
"Actually, it's not like that!"
"Fire is fire, and it contains infinitely profound rules and principles. These principles are right there in the burning flame. Different people who go to comprehend it can always comprehend different operating methods from these principles!"
"This is the rule!"
"After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, every breakthrough requires breaking through such Dao barriers!"
"On the path of cultivation, it is no longer just the accumulation of spiritual power, no longer just filling the dantian to break through the flesh barrier, but to comprehend!"
"Comprehend heaven and earth!"
"Comprehend human nature!"
"Comprehend the cycle of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the blooming and falling of flowers..."
"Everything around can be the object of comprehension!"
"Only in this way can the Dao barrier be broken!"
"Those geniuses with single Linggens whose cultivation speed is unparalleled in the Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment stages often find it difficult to make achievements after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. Do you know why?"
He Pingsheng said: "Disciple doesn't know!"
Tai Xu said: "Because the comprehension is not good enough!"
"After a cultivator breaks the core and transforms into a Nascent Soul, the Linggen in the body will evolve into a 【Dao Root】. Once the Dao Root sprouts, one can perceive heaven and earth!"
"Those cultivators with single-attribute Linggens, let's say a single fire Linggen, because they only have a fire-attribute Linggen, when they perceive the power of heaven and earth, they can only perceive those principles and rules that are biased towards the fire attribute..."
"This greatly limits the scope of comprehension!"
"Therefore, after these people reach the Nascent Soul stage, they become ordinary!"
"On the contrary, for you cultivators with Five-Element Linggens, if you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you will have a Five-Element Dao Root in your body that is complete with gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Because all things are within the five elements, you can perceive the laws of all things!"
"By comparison, you people have the best comprehension, and the subsequent cultivation becomes fast again."
Hearing Biyun Laozu Tai Xu's words, He Pingsheng suddenly realized.
So that's how it is?
"Then..." He interrupted: "In that case, there is no distinction between high and low Linggens in this world!"
"Not necessarily!" Biyun Laozu Tai Xu said: "Cultivation has a sequence. Single Linggens exert force first, and multi-Linggens exert force later. It seems fair and just!"
"But in reality, without sufficient resources, multi-Linggen cultivators find it difficult to survive the initial stage of cultivation, and there are more bottlenecks!"
"So, hehehe..."
Tai Xu didn't draw a conclusion directly, but just laughed it off.
Before He Pingsheng could speak, he added: "If you want to talk about the proud sons of heaven, it's not that there aren't any!"
"For example, that Xiao Xuan from the Bingji Sect who competed with you before!"
"His Void Linggen is the one that has occupied all the advantages of time, place, and people from beginning to end. This is the true proud son of heaven."
He Pingsheng said: "But the disciple feels that although the Void Linggen seems to occupy all the advantages of time, place, and people, it also has a huge flaw!"
"Oh?" Tai Xu said: "Tell me about it?"
He Pingsheng said: "The Void Linggen is formless and shapeless, and cannot be detected by formations. Therefore, 99% of the Void Linggens in this world are treated as mortals without any Linggen, and they end their lives in obscurity, without even the chance to step into the immortal path. Isn't that sad?"
People like Xiao Xuan are, after all, in the minority.
Biyun Laozu Tai Xu nodded and said: "That is the truth!"
"Alright, don't lecture me, old man!" Tai Xu reached out his hand, bypassed his head, pointed to the back, and said: "There is a Daoist nun running over in a hurry in front of the Tai Xu Hall. I see that it's probably your former master... hurry over now and invite her here!"
"You need to talk to her about your affairs."
He Pingsheng was suddenly surprised; "Ah? My master?"
"Why didn't I see her?"
The Nascent Soul Biyun Laozu stared at He Pingsheng with a look of disgust and disdain, looking at him as if he were looking at a mentally disabled person, and said: "No wonder Chongyang said you were honest and kind..."
He Pingsheng turned around with a dark face and hurried to the front of the Tai Xu Divine Hall.
Opening the door of the Tai Xu Divine Hall, sure enough, Master Yu Ning was standing outside!
"Lao Jiu... what's going on?" Yu Ning's eyes were red: "Why are you no longer my disciple?"
He Pingsheng touched his forehead and said: "Master... come with me, the Supreme Elder said to invite you to the back to talk!"
"Good!" Yu Ning said: "I also want to find the Supreme Elder!"
The two crossed the hall and came to the spirit plant garden in the back.
Biyun Laozu Tai Xu was still lying on the chair.
"Disciple Yu Ning!" Yu Ning had an unkind expression and knelt in front of Biyun Laozu Tai Xu with a crisp voice: "I kowtow to you!"
Tai Xu said: "Stand up and speak!"
Yu Ning stood up.
Then... in He Pingsheng's surprised gaze, she unsheathed her precious sword with a clang.
The Biyun Laozu lying on the lounge chair was calm, but He Pingsheng was startled.
"What are you doing?" Biyun Laozu Tai Xu said: "Are you going to fight me?"
Yu Ning cried: "I just lost two disciples recently, and I only have seven out of nine disciples left. Seeing that you, Biyun Laozu, are about to take away my favorite little disciple, although my cultivation is low, I will fight you here today!"
"If I win, please show mercy and return my disciple to me. If I lose, you can kill me!"
Damn...
He Pingsheng was really scared to the point of peeing.
Fighting the Biyun Laozu for his life.
Don't you know that the Biyun Laozu is at the Nascent Soul stage?
Biyun Laozu Tai Xu jumped up from the chair with a dark face and said: "What a big deal, what are you making a fuss about..."
"Put away your weapon!"
Yu Ning wiped her tears: "Disciple won't!"
The Biyun Laozu was so angry that his beard trembled, and finally he flopped back onto the chair: "Fine... Yu Ning... when I saw you last time, you were such a gentle little girl!"
"Why are you so angry now?"
"I am an old man, and I will die in a dozen years!"
"Can't you let me have my way?"
Yu Ning said: "I can let you have your way with other things, but not with my disciple!"
"Then borrow!" Biyun Laozu Tai Xu said: "I'll borrow him for a dozen years. This disciple will cultivate here for a period of time, and then in a dozen years, when I die, I will return this disciple to you, okay?"
"From today on, when he, He Pingsheng, sees you, he must continue to call you Master!"
"That's enough, right?"
Yu Ning thought for a while, then nodded: "Good!"
The three-foot long sword in front of her suddenly shrank and was put into her storage bag.
Biyun Laozu Tai Xu looked at the invisible storage bag that flashed and disappeared on Yu Ning's wrist and said: "I am so envious!"
