Chapter 945 - Life Simulation - Taoism and Martial Arts
There are countless sects in this vast world, but there are also conflicts among each sect, and there is also a chain of contempt between each other.
Like the many sects that occupy this land in Zhongzhou, the area they control is the most elite area in the world, with the most ideas and the most powerful people born.
Whether it is the Xuantian Pavilion of the Yunmeng Empire, the Jingyuan Temple in the Western Regions, or the Nanzhou Island where Pei Xuanjing was originally located, in their view, they are all foreign lands, and some look at the country people. Feel.
In places like Xuantian Pavilion or Jingyuan Temple, their power is supreme and they are all concerned about the control of the dynasty. They often ridicule the many sects in Zhongzhou for their lack of control over the dynasty and insufficient control of the dynasty. ability.
Both sides looked down on each other, and they were constantly fighting with each other. Now that they saw the Jingyuan Temple being robbed, these people were very happy.
"In a person's life, the blood and soul are yang, and the soul is yin. However, the soul and the soul are combined, the god and the body are intertwined, the yin and yang are transformed, the way of complementation, the magical abnormality, the martial arts practitioner, the yin of the soul, the fusion The body of blood and soul merges into one, and the cultivation level is greatly increased. This is to use yin to supplement yang. However, those who cultivate the soul do not know this. The masculinity of blood and soul, after transformation, can replenish the weak essence, blood and vitality of the soul, body, soul and soul, yin and yang complement each other, the supreme way..." Pei Xuanjing flipped through the scriptures he had taken from the Jingyuan Temple in his hand, and carefully As he read, he didn't care at all about everything outside, and he didn't care what kind of disturbance it caused.
The Taoism of the Jingyuan Temple is best at the transformation between the soul and the body, but this Jingyuan Temple uses their Taoism more to repair injuries and make up for the lack of Qi and blood. .
But in Pei Xuanjing’s view, the mutual transformation of the relationship between the soul and the body is actually another method of cultivating the body and the soul together, which is of great significance to his way of practice. Great reference significance.
According to the Taoist scriptures of Jingyuan Temple, the physical body is yang and the soul is yin. From then on, the way of yin and yang complements each other and unites the spirit and body, which is undoubtedly a supreme path.
And in addition to the transformation of the body and soul, the way of yin and yang is also an extremely novel concept in Pei Xuanjing's opinion.
All things in the world originate from chaos and are born from yin and yang. Only with yin and yang as the foundation can everything be derived and conceived.
The laws that Pei Xuanjing practiced originally involved the Tao of Yin and Yang. After reading about the transformation of Yin and Yang in the Jingyuan Temple in front of him, and the blending of the body and the soul, he began to try to integrate it into his own electric body. intraoperatively.
Originally, I planned to use thunder to temper the physical body, but since the soul can also feed the physical body, if according to this theory, yin and yang are all things, can I also turn the thunder into the two attributes of yin and yang? While tempering the soul, tempering the physical body, and then using the common attributes of thunder to achieve a resonance effect, complementing each other.
In addition to the Taoist scriptures of Jingyuan Temple, Pei Xuanjing also recalled his insights from fighting against many powerful people such as Dazen Temple, Creation Tao, etc., and integrated all these things.
Learning from the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought, extracting their essence, and using them for your own use, this is something Pei Xuanjing has done more than once.
In particular, the past Amitabha Sutra practiced by the successive abbots of the Great Zen Temple is the supreme method of cultivating the soul, which is more powerful than the Kung Fu and Dao Sutras of many top sects.
Although Pei Xuanjing and the abbot of the Dazen Temple were fighting against each other, it was impossible to see the other party's sect of Taoism, but after the spirit of the abbot of the Dazen Temple who practiced the Amitabha Sutra was revealed, His characteristics are essentially different from other strong men.
When they reach the realm of true immortals, sometimes they want to study many things and do not need to understand them step by step from shallow to deep.
Most of the time, the reason why true immortals don’t know it is because they have never been exposed to it. Once they see these things, by analogy, even if there is only one result, they can reverse the effect into the cause and try to deduce the original process. .
Just like the original Sanbao Taoist himself, he didn't know how to become a ghost immortal by chance. However, after Pei Xuanjing came into contact with the other party and observed the other party's Taoist fruit, he had already roughly deduced some of the ways of the ghost immortal. process.
It is precisely because of this that Pei Xuanjing was able to perfect a smooth path of ghost and immortal cultivation so quickly after he came to this world. Although he seems to be similar to the strong men in this world, he is actually different. A huge difference.
The Dao of Creation, the Dao of Taishang, the Xuantian Pavilion, the Great Zen Temple, those Taoist families passed down by hundreds of sages and sages, after Pei Xuanjing’s visit, even if they are not willing to let Pei Xuanjing touch the core The Taoist Scriptures of Kung Fu.
But even the most basic Taoist scriptures and exercises are a great gain for Pei Xuanjing. Because the path of practice created by any strong person is systematic, and their practice philosophy can be seen from the very beginning.
With these cultivation concepts and cognitions, it is basically no problem for true immortals to deduce similar things.
In the realm of true immortals, many methods and concepts do not actually need to be kept secret. They even rarely allow more people to practice their methods and follow their ways, so that they can get more blessings and walk in the dark. further.
Taoism, such supreme killing methods and those magical weapons and treasures are what determine the combat power of the true immortals.
This is the so-called Tao can be passed on, but the law should not be passed lightly.
For strong men walking on the same path, their mastery of laws has evolved into mastering Taoism, which is used as the supreme means of killing to determine their level of strength.
In Daxing City, although stories about the True Lord Shenxiao are still circulating, no one dares to visit him rashly at this moment.
Pei Xuanjing's fame not only did not hinder the struggle for the succession of the princes and princes of the Daye Dynasty, but actually accelerated this aspect even more.
With the support of various sects, these princes and princes are constantly competing for power with each other, fighting openly and secretly. At the same time, some sects in the Daye Dynasty have also begun to become unstable.
Wars broke out at the border, internal chaos arose, and various natural and man-made disasters continued one after another.
In just a few years of Pei Xuanjing's retreat, the entire Daye Dynasty suddenly changed from a prosperous situation to a situation where the building was about to collapse.
In the vast Daye Dynasty, in addition to these princes and princes, there are also some powerful ministers who have taken advantage of the situation. Although they have not completely gathered their rebel flags, with the support of some sects and aristocratic families, they have made great contributions to the Daye Dynasty. His orders have been ignored and he has become a country alone.
For this reason, Emperor Daye made a decision to let these princes and princes personally lead the troops, each command a side, suppress the rebellions of all parties, try to regain the rights of each state and county, and eliminate those vassals with disobedient intentions.
Although the old emperor also knew that each of his princes was ambitious, he could restrict them if they stayed in Daxing City. If he really let these princes leave the capital, it would be like a dragon entering the sea and a tiger returning to the forest. Their strength will be stronger and competition will be fierce. On the one hand, there are constant civil strife in various places, and wars are about to break out, and rebels are constantly coming; on the other hand, many princes and princes have left the royal capital, which will inevitably lead to an increase in power that cannot be lost.
With these two results, the old emperor chose the second one without any hesitation.
Because the so-called two powers harm each other, which is the lesser, civil strife is rising in the former. If the rebels are allowed to gain momentum, the Daye Dynasty may be overthrown.
As for the latter princes, even if they really can't lose their power, the final result will be that they will withdraw from the throne, and this great cause dynasty will be replaced by another emperor. Anyway, they have been on the throne for a long time, so it is not a bad idea to abdicate a few years in advance.
So, these many princes and princes left the capital of Daxing and headed in all directions. They commanded their staff and subordinates, and with the support of the sects and families, they quickly seized power and gathered troops. , forming a separate vassal with real power.
The so-called dragon slayer becomes the evil dragon.
After these princes and princes suppressed all parties, and when they gathered these soldiers and horses under their command, their ambitions began to grow.
After all, they have never controlled soldiers and horses before. Even if they have the support of many people, the final decision-making power is in the hands of the emperor. But now that they have these soldiers and horses in hand, and the support of the strong, their mentality There was an immediate change.
As expected by the old emperor, after these princes took control of their rights, they naturally refused to give up, especially when they returned these rights and then once again put their destiny in the hands of others.
Even if some princes are willing to agree but are not willing to do so, don't forget that they are not alone. There are countless supporters behind them. These people will continue to confuse him and make him Make up your mind.
So, after these princes and princes who left the royal capital eliminated some of the ambitious people, they also turned into new ambitious people. In addition to temporarily alleviating some of the unrest, there was no doubt that Let the crisis of this great cause dynasty intensify even more.
The struggle among many princes was already fierce. Now that each party has taken control of the territory of the state and county, they are beginning to think about continuously expanding their territory to expand their right to speak.
After all, there is another way to ascend to the throne besides gaining the emperor's approval and defeating many opponents.
That is, if you can really occupy half of this great dynasty, even if you cannot get the emperor's approval, you can still ascend to the throne with your own strength.
In the following time, the forces of these princes and princes rubbed against each other and engaged in various conspiracies and lobbying. They all actively expanded their influence and prepared to encircle and suppress the largest remaining rebel parties. bandit.
It’s just that they don’t know, or they know but can’t say, that these bandits are not isolated, and they have the support of this powerful force behind them.
For top sects such as Taishang Dao and Good Fortune Dao, they have done countless things to promote dynasty change, and there are countless ways to do this.
They know that sometimes a strong fortress can be broken from within, so these rebel factions in the Daye Dynasty in recent years have the shadow of these sects and families.
For them, no matter which one the old emperor chooses, they have a corresponding plan.
If the old emperor chooses to send other people to let these princes keep the royal capital, then he will increase the support of these rebel separatists to sweep the entire Daye Dynasty.
The old emperor chose the latter, so while they supported these princes and princes in their pursuit of power, they also used this to integrate these rebel and separatist forces, and continuously screened and cultivated these people, allowing the strong to Able to absorb the rest of the power to become even more powerful.
So when these princes and princes were in charge of the state and county troops, the rebel separatist forces that they defeated also began to automatically gather together to form more powerful forces.
In troubled times, there will always be heroes who appear. Under the pressure of all parties, not only did they not fail, but they continued to grow stronger, which is enough to prove the power of the remaining forces and the excellence of their leaders. .
When dynasties change, there are always some strong ones who can stand out and ascend to the supreme position from a commoner.
Just like the original Emperor Taizu of Daye, he was just a small official in the previous dynasty, but he was able to rise up in troubled times. Although he had the support of various sects, it was only in the later period that he After the power is formed.
In the beginning, Emperor Daye Taizu also relied on his own ability and charm to win the trust and follow of many people. Since then, he has overcome many obstacles and defeated many opponents, becoming the last powerful counterattack. One of the kings.
Right now, these sects are using the same method, which is nothing more than repeating what happened when the last dynasty changed more than three hundred years ago.
In fact, if the will of these sects and families is unified, then the change of dynasty will be easy and there will be no such trouble at all, but in fact it is more than that.
For these high-ranking sectarian families, the change of dynasty is not only the reason why they forbid the emergence of the dynasty, but also a process in which they take this opportunity to fight and test the various parties and redefine their interests.
Each sect family has its own interests. If the different people they support can make it to the end, they will gain the greatest benefits, which also means that they will gain dominance in the subsequent prosperity of the dynasty. power to suppress one's opponents.
For those sectarian families whose bets failed in the last dynasty change, this new dynasty change is a process of shuffling the cards, and they can take this opportunity to get back what they once had.
It can be said that the change of dynasty is just a facade, and the real game is still behind the scenes, with conflicts of interest among all parties.
And this time the dynasty change is even different from the past. In addition to their original players, there is also a new entrant.
Although in recent years, new forces have emerged to participate in the dynasty change, using this to gain benefits and slowly grow stronger. But these forces are all accumulated from scratch, not descended from the sky this time.
