Perhaps it was because sages lived in the world to educate living beings, so the atmosphere in the era of saints was very good.
In other words, the moral level is relatively high.
This is what Zhou Qing discovered when he was wandering around Liucheng. Canglin knew etiquette well.
A strange immortal appeared in Liucheng in Zhou Qing. After Jin Feng Sword Immortal briefly asked about his situation, he seemed not to be wary of him and even invited him to his dojo. , I want to fulfill my friendship as a landlord.
And if Zhou Qing is willing, then the two of them can go to Jiangdu together to listen to the lectures of Wen Sheng.
Zhou Qing agreed after thinking for a while.
For the first time here, making friends with an immortal and communicating more will obviously help Zhou Qing integrate into this era and learn more about it.
The dojo of Jin Feng Sword Immortal is located in the east of Liucheng. There is a bamboo forest here that is isolated and not open to the public.
After sitting down, Jin Fengjianxian took out a kind of fairy tea and gave it to Zhou Qing as a courtesy.
Zhou Qing said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Jin Feng has lived in Liucheng for a long time and has been unable to practice in seclusion. I think he will make a breakthrough soon."
Jin Feng Sword Immortal shook his head and sighed softly, and said:
"I returned to Liucheng after surviving the third immortal tribulation. To this day, although my martial arts cultivation has reached the peak of the Three Tribulations Immortal Realm."
“But as far as literary cultivation is concerned, Li Nenggan There is still a long way to go before I can fulfill my destiny. I don’t know if I will have this opportunity in this life.”
“Compared with martial arts, my talent in literature is a bit mediocre.”
Zhou Qing's expression remained unchanged, but thoughts were racing in his mind.
Judging from the words of Jin Fengjianxian, this world is indeed a period when destiny is manifesting.
But it seems to be different from the normal manifestation of destiny.
To be honest, this was completely beyond Zhou Qing’s expectations.
Jin Feng Sword Immortal said again: "Fellow Taoist Zhou came from the Qin Kingdom and walked around the mortal world. In addition to the teachings of the literary saints, there should be a reason for cultivating Haoran Qi in the mortal world, right?"
"Fellow Taoist has a wise eye."
Zhou Qing sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that the destiny is so lofty and difficult to touch. Compared with the sages and sages, we are still far behind."
"If we want to go one step further, we don't need literary cultivation..."
Zhou Qing's words came to an abrupt end and he did not continue. He did not say more to avoid any mistakes or omissions and be seen, but what he wanted to express was already obvious.
And Jin Feng Sword Immortal naturally understood what he meant.
“The thoughts of fellow Taoist Zhou are not the inner thoughts of many immortals.”
Jin Fengjianxian drank the tea in the cup and said:
"But the destiny has not been fully manifested. Only the literary part has been revealed to the world. We must rely on the literary Dao as a springboard to get in touch with the destiny."
“God’s will is like this, what can we do? ?”
“But compared to our predecessors, we are also lucky. Even if it is a little more difficult and demanding, we still have the opportunity to enter the destiny realm.”
The destiny has not been fully manifested, only the literary and moral part has appeared in this world? !
Zhou Qing was shocked and immediately realized some things. Some things that he had not noticed before were immediately revealed to him, and he felt as if he had suddenly realized something.
No wonder there are so many saints in this era, it is entirely up to the sages to make the decision.
Logically speaking, since the destiny is manifested, both Taoists, Buddhas and demons will have the opportunity to climb to higher heights.
There is no reason why there should be a situation where only the literary and moral principles are unique and the sages are supreme.
Haoran Qi is indeed magical, but it is definitely not the mainstream. Strictly speaking, it is just a minor. Only soul and martial arts are the "right way".
Soul and martial arts are the "big road", while Haoran Qi can only be regarded as a "side door".
This can be seen from the fact that even after the saints have reached an extremely high level of literacy, they will still improve their martial arts or soul cultivation.
If you don’t practice martial arts or practice Taoism, it will never work.
But in this era, the minor path has become popular, becoming the mainstream and the only one. This is not normal.
Even if there are a few amazing and brilliant literary seeds born in this era, and they carry up the banner of awe-inspiring spirit, they will not completely dim Taoism, Buddhism and demons, leaving everyone in the world to pursue the path of saints and sages. Tao, cultivate Haoran Qi hard.
All saints are sages, not only sages in cultivation, but also sages in virtue. They obviously will not suppress other paths, and the information Zhou Qing learned in Liucheng also shows that the development of other paths in this era is also very nice.
Haoran Qi’s status is abnormally high.
The words of Jin Fengjianxian revealed the mystery.
It turns out that in this era, destiny has indeed manifested, but it has not fully manifested.
It is still difficult to sense the destiny and make a breakthrough using normal methods. We must use Wen Dao as a springboard!
In this way, it can be explained why the "side sect" became the "right path" at this time, and everyone was practicing hard and became angry.
It can also explain why the situation in this era is very different from other eras when destiny is manifested.
It is true that this Haoran Qi cannot be achieved without cultivation. As long as you want to be promoted to the Master of Life, then literary cultivation is an unavoidable threshold.
Haoran Qi has become a necessary condition for advancing to the destiny realm, and its importance has naturally skyrocketed, making it popular, which is normal.
After learning this, Zhou Qing secretly said trouble.
This was different from what he expected. It was a bit troublesome and caught him off guard.
Fortunately, he could only ride the Time Boat alone. If he had brought Emperor Sui with him, there would be no point, and Emperor Sui's visit would have been in vain.
Suidi, who does not cultivate Haoran Qi, still has no hope of breakthrough in this special era.
But fortunately, Zhou Qing's cultivation of Haoran Qi has reached the peak of Wenxiang Realm, and he is only one step away from the next level of Wenming Realm.
So the special situation in the Age of Saints will not cut off his hope of breakthrough.
The Wenming Realm is a realm that requires sensing destiny. As long as Zhou Qing can enter this realm, his martial arts or soul can also break through to the Master of Destiny.
But the Wen Dao exercises he obtained from All Saints Academy only cover the first three realms of Wen Dao, up to Wen Xiang, and do not include the cultivation content of Wen Ming realm.
Zhou Qing immediately figured out the clues. The next thing he had to do was to find a way to advance to Wenming Realm.
Use this realm as a springboard to enter the realm of the Master of Life!
It seems that I have to go to this literary sage’s lecture...
The Wen Dao Kung Fu practiced by Zhou Qing Dynasty: The Great Sutra of Hui Xin was created by Wen Sheng and is the fundamental scripture of Wen Sheng.
He wants to obtain the later skills and make a breakthrough, so looking for Literary Saint is obviously the best choice.
But the problem is that Zhou Qing did not know Wen Sheng, and whether Wen Sheng has now created the Great Sutra of Wisdom Heart is also a question.
The Great Sutra of Hui Xin, according to Ming Sheng, is the first literary scripture created by the Wen Sage after he reached the peak of his cultivation and spent a long time to sort out everything he had learned. .
Whether Wen Sheng has reached this point at this point in time, Zhou Qing does not know.
I can only wait until I get to Jiangdu to see it.
After Zhou Qing took a few breaths to sort out his thoughts, he sighed.
"It is indeed God's will."
Then he asked: "When I came to Jiang State, I traveled through mountains and rivers and did not inquire much about outside news. Do you know, fellow Taoist Jin Feng, that this time Will Literary Saint’s lectures have any other Is his sage showing up? "
As someone who came all the way from Qin, he didn't know this information as well as Jin Fengjianxian, a local. That's normal, so Zhou Qing didn't have to worry about being asked this question. See any flaw.
"The disciples of the Literary Saint will definitely come, and there is also news that the Benevolent Saint, the Dharma Saint, and the Taoist Saint will also show up."
Jin Feng Sword Immortal said: "These three are all saints. It is said that the person who ranks among the best among the saints is expected to catch up with the Wen Saint."
"But the Wen Saint. He was the Creator many years ago, and now many people are speculating that he has made another breakthrough."
Zhou Qing praised: "The gathering of saints is truly a grand gathering."
"I only hope that this trip to Jiangdu will help us gain something."
After chatting for a few more words, Jin Feng Sword Immortal changed his style and said:
"I saw that the traces of the sword intention are looming on the body of fellow Taoist. Is your fellow Taoist also a sword cultivator?"
Zhou Qing shook his head, "It's not pure. Sword cultivation is just a matter of practicing a few sword techniques."
Jin Feng Sword Immortal smiled and said, "I have the best sword technique in my life. Can you please give me some advice?"
His eyes were bright and full of energy.
Zhou Qing observed carefully and confirmed that this man was happy to see Lie Xin and just wanted to see his swordsmanship. He was not looking for trouble or deliberately provoking.
It seems that he is indeed a pure sword cultivator, no wonder he is known as the Sword Immortal.
Zhou Qing did not refuse such a request.
In this world, no matter what you do, you still have to rely on your ability. Only with that strength can you not be looked down upon by others.
Just at this moment, the breeze blew, and a bamboo leaf fell gently, passing by Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing stretched out one hand, clamped the bamboo leaf between his two fingers, and then handed the bamboo leaf to Jin Feng Sword Immortal.
“Please taste it, fellow Taoist.”
Jin Feng Sword Immortal’s eyes condensed and he solemnly took the bamboo leaf.
The moment he touched the bamboo leaf, Jin Feng Sword Immortal only felt that the infinite sword intent burst out, and the sky collapsed and the earth shattered.
In all directions, everything in the world is facing death and going into annihilation.
The bamboo forest withered and fell silent, the earth turned into powder, the sky collapsed, all colors and all perceptions disappeared, the earth, water, wind and fire emerged, and then returned to nothingness under the sword's will.
Anything that exists or does not exist, visible or invisible, will be destroyed. Jin Feng Sword Immortal felt the end of all things, everything was "killed".
He gathered his sword intention and wanted to cut through the end and restore the world to normal, but all he did was in vain.
The world seemed to be extinguished for eternity, yet it seemed like an instant, Zhou Qing’s voice sounded.
"Make Taoist friends laugh."
After saying this, the green bamboo forest reappeared, the blue sky and white clouds, and the fragrance of tea overflowed, as if everything that Jin Feng Sword Fairy experienced just now was just an illusion.
But Jin Feng Sword Immortal naturally didn't think so. He breathed a lot faster, looked at the bamboo leaf in his hand, his expression changed, and finally gave it back to Zhou Qing.
“I almost thought I was going to fall into the hands of fellow Taoist.”
“It is really the supreme swordsmanship and supreme swordsmanship. Jin Feng admires it. The sword of fellow Taoist is the best in the world. There are not many people who can compare with the immortals.”
As a Three-Tribulation Sword Immortal, Jin Feng Sword Immortal can be said to be the authority in the art of swordsmanship. His admiration can be seen from the admiration in his heart.
After admiring him, Jin Feng Sword Immortal smiled bitterly.
“My fellow Taoist is so humble in swordsmanship that you are definitely one of the best among the swordsmen in the world, but you are so humble that you are not a swordsman...”
“You are so humble, my fellow Taoist, if you still behave like this If you are not a pure swordsman, then I will not be able to see others.”
“…”
But I’m really not a swordsman.
My family knows my own affairs.
My sword intention makes Jin Feng Sword Immortal unable to resist. This is entirely because the swordsmanship he practices is too strong, and his cultivation level far exceeds that of Jin Feng Sword Immortal.
Transcendence Immortal and Immortal Killing Sword Sutra, even if Zhou Qing only showed his skills, it would be damned if Jin Feng Sword Immortal could stop this combination.
It certainly cannot be said that Zhou Qing is a pure swordsman.
But looking at Jin Feng Sword Immortal's expression, Zhou Qing didn't explain anything.
Just practice swordsmanship.
After Zhou Qing showed his skills, Jin Feng Sword Immortal became even more enthusiastic towards Zhou Qing, and felt like he was meeting someone of the same kind.
……
Two days later.
Zhou Qing and Jin Fengjianxian came to Jiangdu together.
This city is the capital of the Jiang Kingdom. It is extremely lively and prosperous. Especially the literary saint also lectures here, which makes the prosperity of Jiangdu a few steps higher.
Practitioners from all over the world came and poured into Jiangdu, just to listen to the scriptures.
The Holy Palace is a building found in capitals of various countries and some special cities. It houses statues of saints.
Every time a saint is born in this world, there will be one more statue in the holy palace.
But it is worth noting that the lowest level of a sage is a life-controller, but a life-controller may not necessarily be called a sage.
In this era, only those who have reached the level of the Master of Life, created their own theories and ideas, and then made great achievements and benefited all living beings can be called sages.
If only the cultivation level meets the requirements, but the following conditions are not met, then they are only strong men at the level of the Master of Life, not saints, and cannot be included in the Holy Palace.
After Zhou Qing and Jin Fengjianxian entered Jiangdu, they went directly to the Holy Palace.
On the road, they met many immortals whose destinations were the same as theirs.
In this era, sages and sages are stationed in the world of mortals, immortals are visiting the mortal world, and immortals are walking in the world to make troubles. The scene of harmony and light in the world is really common.
Therefore, after Zhou Qing entered the city, it was normal and there was no special treatment.
All the practitioners were peaceful after entering Jiangdu. No one made trouble or fought.
Wen Sheng is already in Jiangdu. Anyone who dares to cause trouble is seeking death and cannot escape at all.
All saints are benevolent and show great love to all living beings, but you must not think that gentlemen can deceive them and kidnap saints morally, let alone think that saints cannot kill people.
When the sage takes action, he is more decisive than anyone else...
With their level, life and death are in their hearts, and there will never be any hesitation.
No one thinks that the saints can establish their own order in this era just by relying on thoughts and words, right?
Sages have "The Analects of Confucius" and they also have "The Analects of Confucius"!
“Is this the Jiangdu Holy Palace?”
Looking at the building in front of him, Zhou Qing was a little surprised.
The Holy Palace was not as glorious as he imagined. It was just a wooden building and wooden house made of ordinary wood. It was extremely simple and had no luxury at all.
There is a huge square in front of the Holy Palace, where the statues of the saints stand.
These statues are also the most common stones. The only thing worthy of praise is that they are well carved and lifelike.
“Natural.”
Jin Fengjianxian said: "Brother Zhou, let's go and sit in front."
On the square in front of the statues of the various temples, there are futons placed one after another. There are about 300,000 seats, and there are already many People were sparsely seated.
Zhou Qing and Jin Fengjianxian went to the rows of futons at the front and found a place to sit down.
Every time a sage lectures publicly in the Holy Palace, there are unwritten rules about seating. The higher the cultivation level, the further forward the position will be.
As for birth and origin, they don’t care, and they will not arrange seats in advance. With the same cultivation level, whoever comes early can just find a place to sit by himself, and no fighting is allowed.
The Master of Life has another location, not in this futon area.
Jin Feng Sword Immortal is a Three Tribulation Immortal, and so is Zhou Qingming. Fate does not count, so of course they are qualified to sit at the front.
Such rules seem to be special treatment given to immortals, but in fact there are other reasons.
When sages give lectures, the sacred principles spread and the Tao aggregates are shrouded. The closer the sages are to the Tao aggregates, the stronger the Tao aggregates are. This is both a benefit and a pressure.
If a person with low cultivation level gets too close to the sage Dao Yun, although he will not be harmed, he may not be able to bear it and fall into a coma.
Only by sitting in the most suitable position can you get the maximum benefit from the sage's Tao Yun.
Of course sages can restrain their own Taoism, but they will not do so. Spreading Taoism is what they do intentionally, in order to baptize all living beings and enlighten them.
After sitting down, immortals would greet Jin Feng Sword Immortal from time to time. As a local immortal in the Jiang Kingdom, there must be many people who know Jin Feng Sword Immortal.
On the other hand, Zhou Qing is very pure.
In this era, except for the Jin Feng Sword Immortal, whom he met by chance, he didn’t know any other immortals, so he was left in peace.
Time passed slowly, and it was getting closer and closer to the start time of Literary Saint's lecture, and the futons in the square gradually filled up.
In fact, not only the futons, but also the area other than the futons were crowded with people. There were really too many people coming this time.
Zhou Qing was stunned to see that all the three hundred thousand futons were full, and there were many people standing in other areas. The attraction of the literary saint was evident.
There are still many people who do not have the time or ability to come, otherwise the number of people coming here will continue to increase.
Zhou Qing also saw the group of people sitting on the machine bird that he met when he first arrived in the era of saints.
But even though there were so many people, there was still order and no vicious incidents occurred.
It’s not that everyone’s consciousness is that high, but the Holy Palace exudes a kind of power that makes people calm.
After the time was up, seven people walked out of the Holy Palace, including young people, middle-aged people, and old people.
After they appeared, some of the noise immediately disappeared, and everyone looked at them subconsciously.
This is an involuntary reaction, as if a "magnet" has appeared to attract attention.
The whole square suddenly became extremely quiet.
Seven sages!
This thought came to Zhou Qing's mind, and he saw seven sages sitting under the statues of the saints. Their positions were higher so that everyone could see them.
The Seven Saints looked at everyone with gentle eyes, and then all their eyes fell on Zhou Qing in unison.
Zhou Qing's heart skipped a beat. This was not a metaphor, but a description of fact, because his heart began to beat violently, as if he was alive.
And at this time, Zhou Qing also heard another heartbeat, originating from...
The old man in the middle of the Seven Saints.
This is a change in the Exquisite Heart of the Seven Apertures, and the identity of the person who can resonate with his Exquisite Heart of the Seven Apertures here cannot be more obvious.
The first of all saints, the Literary Saint!
Seeing the seven saints looking at him, feeling the resonance, Zhou Qing was stunned.
He wanted to keep a low profile, but now it seems that he can't keep a low profile.
His strength does not allow him to keep a low profile!
The eyes of the Seven Saints are gentle, and there are other emotions, such as curiosity, surprise, etc.
Being watched by seven unparalleled masters at the same time, Zhou Qing felt extremely stressed for a while. After thinking about it, he managed to smile.
My ancestors, I am a good person.
