Taoist Master Xuanhuang

After being brought to the Martial Arts Alliance by Sun Hui, Peng Yue had a bigger stage.

People like him are not afraid of a big stage, but are afraid of not having a stage for actual performance. The bigger the stage, the stronger he is.

The Martial Arts Alliance was more in line with his temperament. They were a group of descendants of warriors. Although they were not generals like himself, there was no difference between them.

They scream every time they are poked. It is more exciting than in Yuanzhen Sect.

Moreover, each of them is very powerful, much stronger than the formation practitioners of the Yuanzhen Sect. Each of them has a terrifyingly strong body and is not afraid of training at all.

He loves it here so much.

Of course, there are also shortcomings. His brain is just like the soldier he was fighting before. He can't comprehend the formation as fast as the Yuanzhen Sect's formation practitioners.

Especially the coherence and application of the formation.

That's the only drawback.

But who is Peng Yue? If there is a difficulty, then overcome it. Don't think of letting this difficulty hold you back.

Under his leadership and guidance, the Martial Arts Alliance, with his army at its command, began to replicate the previous legend of the Yuanzhen Sect, becoming invincible in battle and unstoppable.

Sun Hui was very satisfied. Not only did he get a leading general, but he also got a military formation.

It was taught by Zuo Qiuming.

Zuo Qiuming also gained more. The bigger the stage, the more he realized, and naturally he progressed faster.

Before long, he became the honorary commander of the Martial Arts Alliance.

This scene made the Confucianists and others very anxious. After all, they would feel uncomfortable watching any of the three families become stronger.

Then he pulled Zuo Qiuming over.

Zuo Qiuming was unwilling at first.

But he couldn't help but ask Yan Lai: "Why, do you look down on us, the descendants of Confucianism, and think we are not up to standard?"

Zuo Qiuming dared not say anything else but "No."

"So you think that we juniors are just juniors, and you are the sacred seniors, so you don't want to interact with us juniors?"

Zuo Qiuming: “No.”

"I see. Are you dissatisfied with us for not helping you like Sun Hui helped Senior Zuo Qiuming?"

Zuo Qiuming: “I don’t have any.”

"That……"

Zuo Qiuming interrupted directly: "Okay, stop talking. I believe it now. You younger generations of Confucianism have inherited our thoughts and style very well. You are all shameless... Tell me, I can do whatever you want me to do. Don't put a hat on me. I am also afraid of leaving a bad reputation in history!"

This is a pun, very pun.

It seems that Zuo Qiuming was completely speechless.

Yan Lai and others were a little embarrassed. What kind of talk was this? What do you mean by inheriting the shameless style of Confucianism? We don’t have that.

Besides, you are the saint of history, who would dare to record your bad name?

Is this a scolding to us or a scolding to us?
"It's nothing. You see, under the leadership of Senior Zuo Qiuming, the Martial Arts Alliance has been very strong recently. This is not acceptable. Our Confucian School is the number one force. If we don't work hard, we will be surpassed. If we do that, you seniors will lose face... Do you have any special skills? Can you give us some advice? Just like Senior Zuo Qiuming did."

Zuo Qiuming: "I..."

Zuo Qiuming was so sad that he had no tears to cry because it turned out that he was the one who had to do the hard work.

But I am a historian and a scholar, not a general.

What's more, Peng Yue's way of military formation is different from his own luck, so he can't do it.

"Can't you?" Yan Lai said.

"I, I...ah, it's like this..." Zuo Qiuming thought he was free and easy, but he didn't expect that one day he would be controlled.

I am still being controlled by my own juniors. I am speechless.

He had no choice but to talk about his own Tao, Zuo Qiuming's Tao, and the experiences of his own sacred foursome.

After hearing this, Yan Lai and others understood that this was the principle.

These sacred beings from these realms actually took this step.

Once this secret was known, Zuo Qiuming and the Martial Arts Alliance army were no longer so important.

"Now that you belong to the human world, why not return to Confucianism?" Yan Lai and other senior officials looked at each other and said.

"I..." Zuo Qiuming was completely speechless.

But I am also completely relieved. These young people of Confucianism have really learned the essence of Confucianism. I am not afraid of them being bullied.

It's so shameless. He won't let me go until he has squeezed myself dry.

"Okay." Zuo Qiuming thought it was okay. It wasn't a betrayal. He was just returning to his original identity. All his companions in the realm had nothing to say about it.

And what Yan said was right, after all, I had a new identity in the human world.

Although there are fifth-level strength in the realm, they are just clones after all, and oneself is the most important.

It would be good to have a place to stay in the world's best force.

“But, due to my status, I hope you…” Zuo Qiuming said.

"We understand, Honorary Elder. We know that if there are good things to come, just think of our Confucian sect. There is no need for you to risk your life for us." Yan Lai had arranged everything.

"Okay." What else could Zuo Qiuming say.

"But..." Zuo Qiuming said: "I will tell you another secret, Xuanhuang Dao Master Xiao Tiandao..."

Now that I have returned to my hometown, I must make some contribution. After all, only when Confucianism is good will I be good.

"Oh?" Yan Lai and others were surprised.

They finally understood that this was the reason why so many "wild monks" had appeared in recent years.

Xuanshi's domain is already strong enough to replace the Heavenly Dao and achieve what Senior Zuo Qiuming called the Small Heavenly Dao.

"Then can we try it?" Yan Lai asked.

"Why are you learning this?" Zuo Qiuming asked in confusion.

"Well, what I mean is..." Yan Lai didn't know what to say.

The sentence I asked just now was purely a subconscious question because I discovered a bargain, but I quickly realized why I was learning all this.
With Master Xuan's three invincible methods at hand, why bother learning those techniques that you don't even know if they can be considered average? Isn't that just asking for trouble?

And is it so easy to learn?
To enter the Tao through skills, what does it mean to enter the Tao through skills?

This means that these people's skills have reached a level close to that of Tao, which requires talent.

And, most importantly, these people are poor.

Why are they pitiful people? Because they have no talent for cultivation at all, just like the divine cultivators before, they have no talent for cultivation and rely entirely on Master Kane to grant them soul seeds.

"Uh, I'm sorry for being so presumptuous." Feeling that something was wrong, Yan Lai quickly admitted his mistake.

"You are the luckiest. We, the saints, cannot compare to you. We cannot learn the methods of the mysterious master, unless we are like that saintly Taoist friend, but this is obviously not our idea. The fundamental reason for those who enter the Tao through skills is the gift of the Taoist master, even us."

Confucian senior officials: ...

"Don't you understand?" Zuo Qiuming said.

"I'm sorry, I really don't understand it." Yan Lai said.

"Have you ever thought about this question? Why are the four of us so successful now and have successfully figured out our own methods? Is it really because the four of us are so talented?" Zuo Qiuming said.

"Uh, isn't it?" Yan Lai asked.

"Yes and no. We do have decent talent, but four people with four advanced methods is a bit outrageous. It is said in the great world that there are thousands of years of advanced methods. How can we be so worthy?" Zuo Qiuming said.

"Is there any other reason?" Yan Lai understood something.

After what Senior Zuo Qiuming said, it seemed to be true. Even if he was talented, he wouldn't be so outrageous. "My guess, of course, is just my personal guess. It may be inseparable from the Taoist Xuanhuang... Do you know the will of heaven?" Zuo Qiuming asked in a ambiguous way.

"God's will? Of course we know what God's will is, but this thing is both real and illusory, so it's hard to say." Meng Qiao said.

"Indeed. But what if God's will is a person?" Zuo Qiuming asked.

"This?" Meng Qiao was stunned.

Yan Lai and others seemed to understand again.

The Small Heavenly Dao was created by the Mystic Master. Doesn’t that mean that Heaven’s Will is the Mystic Master?
The reason why the four realm predecessors all have their own advanced methods is the will of the Xuanshi, and isn’t the will of the Xuanshi the so-called will of heaven?
"Is it really so?" Yan Lai obviously wanted to confirm it, but he didn't dare to, after all, it was too outrageous.

It’s not that I don’t believe in the master, but that I don’t believe in Zuo Qiuming’s conjecture.

They believed in Master Xuan's strength and ability, but they were skeptical about the speculations that came from Zuo Qiuming's mouth.

"I'm not sure, but it should be correct."

The Confucians were very silent.

…………

This was Zuo Qiuming's original conjecture.

Even after two years, he still didn't dare to confirm this guess.

Until this moment, the four-member group of the realm gathered together again.

Nanshi, where the four gathered.

"Have you made any progress on the previous question?"

Zuo Qiuming asked the three people.

"This? I asked Lord Long Zun, and he was not sure, but his guess was consistent with yours."

The corpse retriever answered first.

"I also asked Shan Zun, and he had the same idea." Lu Dongbin said.

"What Wu'an Jun said is not important. What is important is our current achievements. They are not inseparable from Taoist Master Xuanhuang. There is no need to worry about it." Peng Yue said.

A few years ago, Zuo Qiuming shared this confusion with Yan Lai and others.

He also said the same thing to the other three people who were traveling with him.

The three of them were also shocked at the time. They have been experiencing it carefully over the past two years and even said that they can be sure of it.

But they were not sure because they did not dare to ask Xuan Huang.

Nor did he ask the Lord of all living beings.

I was still very confused about one question, that is, was my achievement really the will of the Xuanhuang Dao Lord? Then wasn't my life in vain, and I was not as talented as I thought?

This is a fatal problem, which is tantamount to self-denial.

Therefore, the four of them only dared to discuss it privately and did not dare to ask.

It may sound a bit like a coward, but this question is really difficult to ask.

Even if you ask, you need to wait for a period of time to settle down, go further, and thoroughly concentrate your heart of the Tao before asking.

They thought that this might be the reason why Taoist Master Xuanhuang did not tell them.

It should be explained that, after all, they created their own Taoism, and it is their own realm consciousness that suppresses their souls.

Unlike the cultivators of the three major systems, whose source is Xuanhuang and whose method is also Xuanhuang, there is no problem of unstable Tao heart.

They are different. The source of suppression is not the origin of Xuanhuang. Once there is a violent fluctuation, it is easy to shake the heart of Tao.

This is also one of their disadvantages.

"Mr. Wu An is right. Let's not get hung up on it and just do what we want."

After a moment of silence, Zuo Qiuming said.

In fact, their guess was correct. The reason why the four of them were able to walk their own paths was because Xuan Huang took the initiative to take care of them.

It's not just them, even those in South City who have successfully attained enlightenment also share Xuan Huang's wishes.

Xuan Huang's will is the will of heaven in the small heaven that he controls.

"Well, let's not dwell on this. Taoist Master Xuanhuang's retreat means that Xiaotiandao will make further progress. This is why we are gathered here. Let's discuss what we need to pay attention to next." Peng Yue said.

The four of them got together for this reason.

There is strength in numbers and wisdom in numbers, and this is why it is so important.

This is not necessary for true cultivation of the three major systems, but it is very necessary for them.

As mentioned before, Xuanhuang represents the will of heaven here. The will of heaven is about to change. As those under the will of heaven, how can they not pay attention to it?

"Before you came, I discussed something with fellow corpse collector. We..."

Zuo Qiuming talked about the discussion he had just had with the corpse catcher.

"That's for sure. Taoist Master Xuanhuang will definitely remain open as always." Lu Dongbin agreed deeply.

"Having rules means we have guidance and we can benefit from them. It will be a decisive factor in our further creation of laws," said Peng Yue.

"That's right, that's right." All three agreed.

They also need the inertial guidance of rule formation.

I had originally thought that it would take a long time to comprehend the next step in the technique.

I didn’t expect that the rule guidance was coming, it is indeed worth being happy about.

"To be honest, I had been thinking of demoting myself if there was really no other way. I didn't expect that it was really God's will." Peng Yue said with a smile.

Although the four of them have advanced skills.

But it does not mean that you can maintain a high level of skills after moving forward.

The four of them thought that if it was difficult to continue with the advanced skills, they would take the initiative to downgrade, for example, from the middle and late stages of the second stage to a medium-level skill.

Among the four of them, except for the corpse retriever who used the "Coffin Burial Method", the remaining three could be said to have had direct enlightenment.

He suddenly realized the advanced skills in one step. This was a gift from heaven and also Xuan Huang's intention.

But it does not mean that the subsequent exercises can maintain this level. This is a bit difficult.

There was really no other way, the three of them decided to downgrade and create the subsequent skills first, which they could then slowly improve and transform.

This is the advantage of creating your own skills, it can be used for self-improvement, unless you have reached the limit of your personal ability.

"Master Xuanhuang, this is indeed God's will, haha..."

The four of them laughed. If this was God's will, it didn't seem to matter who it was.

After all, who doesn’t like to be favored by God?

The way the four addressed each other had changed. Also, two or three years ago, the four no longer addressed Xuan Huang as Fellow Daoist Xuan Huang.

It is not appropriate to call him Xuanshi, after all, he is not Xuanshi's disciple in the strict sense.

So the four of them tacitly called him Taoist Xuanhuang. This change was subtle and gradual, and there was no need for discussion. As long as one of them called him that, everyone would immediately understand and adopt this name.

God’s will is Xuan Huang, the protective environment is Xuan Huang, and the creative environment is also provided by Xuan Huang.

Half of the realm suppresses the soul, and half of the Xuanhuang Small Heavenly Dao suppresses the soul. What else can I say?

Not to mention calling him Taoist Master, even calling him Ancestor is no big deal.

No matter whether it is people, gods, saints, or anything else, they all know how to handle the current situation.
