Chapter 83 Chapter 83: Without the seven emotions and six desires, it is better to die and be pure...
Since the Immortal Concubine Square only had activities in the evening, Meng Chen did not stay long. He turned around and left the place and continued walking. After walking for more than an hour, he only walked around the green lake and walked into an ancient alley. The stones paved on the ground They were all trampled smooth.
Meng Chen always saw magnificent palaces and palaces, and wanted to enter these ancient alleys to see what he would encounter in these corners.
He turned around and walked out of the ancient alley, then entered a free market and came to a lively place.
Meng Chen was surprised. Although there were street stalls here, which were much shabby compared to those in the palace, there were a lot of good things on the ground.
Black copper treasure essence, red blood spiritual marrow, dragon blood soil, star stone...all kinds of precious materials are available.
Many things are difficult to find in the outside world, but you can find them in every corner of Qingdi City.
This made him sigh that Qingdi City was worthy of being the top city in the Five Elements State and even the Cangxuan Territory.
These things can only be placed on street stalls. There are not many corners like this. There must be countless similar free markets.
It can be speculated that there must be something more precious in those magnificent buildings and palaces.
Meng Chen walked around half a circle and saw many rare medicinal materials, including the Hundred-blood Spirit Dragon Flower, Phoenix Grass, Silver Moon Fruit, Purple Jade Lotus... The fragrant aroma of all spiritual plants and medicinal herbs was palpable, and they were all treasures.
"As long as you have spiritual stones, you can really buy anything."
He sighed a little, and sure enough, no matter in which world, the currency of economic flow is omnipotent.
Meng Chen walked around half of the market and came to the place where stones were sold. Each of these stalls only had a few stones. They looked very ordinary and there was nothing unusual about them.
Although these stones may seem ordinary, the things they contain are not simple.
The stone is called the Sealing Spirit Stone, and its origin is extremely ancient and can be traced back to countless eras of the End of the Law.
The Age of Ending Dharma is a great calamity for monks. Once the Ending Dharma comes, no matter how powerful the monk is, his cultivation will regress due to the depletion of spiritual energy. His body will die and his soul will be destroyed. Even the spiritual beings nurtured by heaven and earth will lose their spirituality and return to dust. .
Therefore, in order to ensure that they can successfully survive the great catastrophe of the End of the Law, some beings will seal themselves and the treasures they possess in spirit-sealing stones to isolate the flow of spirituality when the catastrophe comes.
However, there are very few monks who can survive the catastrophe of the end of the law, but their treasures are preserved under the seal of the spirit sealing stone.
As a result, the stone gambling industry emerged, and the bets were on the treasures in the spirit stone.
This is not the first time that Meng Chen has come into contact with the Spirit Sealing Stone. He had obtained a batch of Spirit Sealing Stones in the ancient secret realm before and found many good things.
Out of curiosity, he asked the stall owner how many spirit stones these sealing spirit stones were. He didn't know if he didn't ask, but he was shocked when he asked. They were simply ridiculously expensive.
A palm-sized sealing spirit stone would cost tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones.
"Young man, buy a piece of sealing spirit stone. It has a guaranteed reputation and is produced in Xuanchu Mountain. Sometimes it can cut out shocking treasures."
The stall owner squatted on the ground and tried to sell Meng Chen some of the sealing stones from Xuanchu Mountain on the stall.
Xuanchu Mountain, the oldest mountain in Cangxuan Territory, is rich in various spirit-sealing stones. It has also buried countless monks who wanted to survive the great tribulation of the end of the law.
Meng Chen declined politely. He was not taken advantage of.
There are a lot of people in Free Square City, coming and going, and people stop from time to time.
Meng Chen walked around for a while, and when he raised his head, he was shocked. There was a group of suspended palaces in the sky above Ziyoufang City. They were majestic and even more magnificent than the palaces and palaces he had seen before.
"Where is that place?"
"That's Baoyuan Auction House. It's the largest auction house in Qingdi City. Peerless treasures are often sold for sky-high prices here." A passerby explained Meng Chen's doubts.
When he heard that it was Baoyuan Auction House, Meng Chen's eyes lit up. He came here just for it, and he immediately asked: "Friend Taoist, what kind of auctions does Baoyuan Auction House have?"
Passerby: "There is everything except what you can't imagine. There is nothing that Baoyuan does not have."
When Meng Chen heard this, he became even more interested.
After a while, he left this free square city.
Qingdi City is extremely luxurious and has everything. It not only has gambling stone workshop, Fengyuedi, Zuixianju, etc. that make people strive for progress, it is a magic city where you can be radical, kill time, and be decadent.
After walking around for more than half a day, Meng Chen only covered a small area, less than a corner of Qingdi City. The city was so huge that it was said to be nearly five or six thousand miles from one end to the other.
As night falls, the Qingdi City is splendid at night, with stars falling from the sky like thin smoke, falling on the city, and the moonlight falling down like water waves.
Qingdi City is not quiet at night. There are pedestrians in the streets and alleys, and melodious music comes from various palaces.
Beside the street, there are countless palaces, resplendent and brightly lit. As you look around, the brilliance is shining.
The singing is faint and ethereal, touching people's hearts and making people intoxicated.
Qingdi City is a city that never sleeps, with palaces surrounded by spiritual flowers and auspicious clouds blooming, creating a dream-like scene.
Meng Chen randomly found a pavilion to sit down and taste the spiritual delicacies, and in his ears, there were also several comments. It seemed that like him, they were all monks who had first entered Qingdi City.
The young man with a handsome face and a simple face said: "Most of the people in Qingdi City are monks, but why are there so many gambling houses and the Land of Wind and Moon in the city? Why are they so indulgent? It doesn't look like a fairy city. It’s like a depressing realm.”
The tall middle-aged man next to him smiled and said: "Monks are also human beings, and they are not cultivators of ruthless Taoism. They all have seven emotions and six desires. It does not matter whether it is Qingdi City or an ordinary city."
The young man said again: "But shouldn't monks like us be pure in heart and have few desires? Should we pursue the supreme immortality? How can we be so extravagant?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and taught: "This is not extravagance, this is doing whatever you want and letting your seven emotions and six desires express themselves. The road to seeking immortality is inherently difficult, so why do you have to practice hard?"
"There are thousands of ways to cultivate, and different people have different ways. Some people just seek immortality in the world of mortals. Especially those with advanced cultivation, when they reach a certain level, they do not necessarily need to retreat. Many people Experience the five colors, re-enter the world of mortals, and look for opportunities for breakthrough.”
When the young man heard this, he fell into deep thought.
The stars are falling, the moonlight is like water, and the entire Qingdi City is shrouded in a sacred veil, a piece of beauty, with songs and music gently singing.
The fragrant aroma of wine floated from the sky, and a luxurious palace was dazzling and brightly lit, suspended in the sky beside the street.
"Good wine, definitely aged for thousands of years, a peerless wine!"
Some passers-by looked up at the wine palace in the sky, looking intoxicated, filled with emotion, and looking envious.
In a palace, there is a beauty swaying, which makes people dream, and attracts the pursuit of male cultivators. There is a male cultivator who dances with a gun, attracting the hearts of female cultivators.
Meng Chen looked at the various scenes in Qingdi City. No matter whether he was a mortal or a monk, he could not escape the seven emotions and six desires, and the same was true for him.
If a person no longer has the seven emotions and six desires, it is better to die and be pure.
