The Golden Crow Burns the Sky

Chapter 6: Finally Obtaining the Sacred Tree and Discussing the Sun

After listening to Xuan Hui's words, the Holy Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little surprised.

It’s not that the three things Xuan Hui mentioned are so difficult and outrageous. On the contrary, for the Sun Holy Emperor, these three things are too simple.

Let's talk about the first one first. The lineage of the Sun God Cult is the Holy Emperor's own tradition and bloodline inheritance. When the Holy Emperor returned earlier, his divine consciousness penetrated the heavens and the earth, and he knew more or less the current situation of his own lineage.

As the ancestor, the Holy Emperor of the Sun naturally still cares about these descendants. Even if Xuanhui had not encountered this, he would definitely reappear to pass down the true teachings of the Sun God Cult, leaving behind a legacy to deter the villains.

As for the second point, discussing the Tao of the Sun and verifying the Tao Fruit is a normal request, and the Sun Saint Emperor is also happy to do so.

Even though he is already a dead person, but as a seeker of truth, he will not resist his original intention of seeking truth. In the past, he climbed to the top of the mountain alone and had few people to discuss with. But now he has a companion to discuss truth with, which is naturally a very good thing.

Finally, the third one can be considered a reasonable request. In the eyes of the Holy Emperor, it should be Xuan Hui’s real purpose.

However, the Holy Emperor still found it difficult to understand. After all, considering what Xuan Hui had done, this request seemed too insignificant.

You know, things like the Immortal Elixir are indeed useful to the Ancient Supreme Emperor, but to be honest, they are not that precious. They can only be said to have some value.

After all, which ancient emperor has not been sought after for the elixir of immortality?
For many people who have achieved enlightenment in ancient times, as long as they are determined, there are few powerful emperors who cannot find the elixir of immortality and live a second life. If they meet the ancient emperor who has the elixir of immortality, they will even take the initiative to follow it, hoping to be with the person who has achieved enlightenment. Therefore, the Sun Saint Emperor does not quite understand why Xuanhui's real request is only for the Fusang sacred tree.

For everything he has done, just obtaining the Fusang sacred tree seems a little insignificant?
"Daoyou, are these the only three things?"

The Holy Emperor asked again, confirming his thoughts with Xuan Hui.

"Yes, only these three."

Xuan Hui expressed his certainty. In fact, both he and the Sun Saint Emperor himself knew very well that, to be honest, there was nothing on the Sun Saint Emperor that was worth Xuan Hui's concern. Xuan Hui was not the Immortal Emperor, and he did not need the Saint Emperor's flesh and blood.

Perhaps for Xuan Hui, the only thing that has some value is the ultimate combat power for a moment after the divine consciousness is revived?
……

Seeing Xuan Hui's affirmation again, the Holy Emperor nodded and stopped asking questions.

"Then it's all up to you, fellow Taoist."

Before he finished speaking, the Holy Emperor stretched out his big hand and grabbed towards Tanggu. When he retracted his hand, there was already something extra in his palm, which was the Fusang sacred tree.

Looking at this rare and familiar thing in his hand, the Holy Emperor sighed slightly, feeling a little melancholy, as if he was reminiscing about the ancient times that had passed. Then, he took action and broke off a branch from the Fusang Sacred Tree. The branch contained rich holy power of the sun, and immortal essence was diffused and flowing.

After leaving that piece of branch behind, the Sun Holy Emperor raised his head and handed the Fusang Sacred Tree to Xuan Hui, while speaking to Xuan Hui with some apology.

"I hope you can forgive me. Fusang contains the essence of the sun. If there is unrest, I can use it to fight against the sky and protect all living beings."

This was the Holy Emperor explaining why he wanted to break off a branch of the Fusang tree. Xuan Hui naturally understood this very well, as he knew very well that the Sun Holy Emperor had such a great ambition in his heart.

Then, Xuan Hui did not hesitate to take the Fusang sacred tree handed to him by the Holy Emperor, put it into the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and nourish it with his own sacred spring.

At this point, the main purpose of Xuan Hui's trip was achieved - the Fusang sacred tree was in his possession, and he had made a step forward in his quest to become an immortal from a mortal. The long-cherished wish of the Jinwu clan for millions of years was also fulfilled, leaving no regrets.

Seeing that Xuan Hui didn't say anything else, the Sun Saint Emperor also smiled heartily and then said.

"Since we want to discuss the Dao, let me start by saying something. It will be a good start."

Then, in the void, the Sun Saint Emperor sat upright, with a sun stone tower quietly suspended in his one arm, interpreting the myriad auras of the Sun Avenue.

Then, the Holy Emperor spoke, reciting the truth of the Great Dao, and every word and sentence contained the truth of the sun, carving out a meaningful chapter in the void. "Once the three are realized, only emptiness is seen; observing emptiness is also emptiness, and emptiness has nothing to be empty; since what is empty is nothing, nothing is also nothing; since nothing is nothing, it is always quiet. There is nothing to be quiet, how can desire arise? Since desire does not arise, it is true tranquility; true and constant response to things, true and constant obtain nature..."

As the Sun Saint Emperor spoke, a huge sun rose up in the void, shining its light everywhere and nourishing all things. As all things and spirits performed, the positive side of them was mobilized, and finally returned to emptiness.

Xuan Hui had also studied the Sun Sutra, but at this moment, what the Sun Saint Emperor talked about was not only the great principles contained in the Sun Sutra, but also his many insights into life and death after his return in the form of divine thoughts. These insights were truly profound, and many of the contents inspired Xuan Hui.

After the Sun Saint Emperor finished speaking, Xuan Hui naturally did not hide anything and began to talk about his own path and his understanding of the sun.

"If you cannot obtain the true way, you have a deluded mind. Once you have a deluded mind, your spirit will be disturbed. Once your spirit is disturbed, you will be attached to all things. Once you are attached to all things, you will be greedy. Once you are greedy, you will have troubles. Troubles and delusions will cause you to suffer physically and mentally. You will suffer humiliation and wander in the cycle of life and death. You will always sink into the sea of ​​suffering and lose the true way forever. The true and constant way will be found by those who understand it. Those who understand it will always be pure and peaceful..."

Unlike the Holy Emperor of the Sun, Xuan Hui's initial understanding of the sun came from his own bloodline, from which he discovered and almost turned it into the real sun.

At this moment, all of this was reflected in what he said. There was the warmth and vitality of the morning sun, the fierceness and killing of the scorching sun, and the decaying air of the setting sun. In one sun, everything is encompassed and extended to infinity.

As Xuan Hui continued to speak, a ray of light burst out from between his eyebrows again. The next moment, it seemed as if nine huge suns suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, illuminating the entire universe and steaming the entire North Sea, causing the North Sea glaciers that had not melted for billions of years to melt and boil.

Faintly, the Sun Saint Emperor heard the cry of a golden crow. The sound of the cry was extremely vast, as if a golden crow had spread its wings and cried at the beginning of the world, transformed into the original sun, and after thousands of years, came to today.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Xuan Hui also stopped. The two of them sat facing each other in silence, each digesting what they had gained.

After a long time, the Sun Saint Emperor spoke again, his tone full of amazement and admiration.

"You have already achieved the Great Dao, and I think it won't be long before you attain enlightenment. I would like to congratulate you in advance on achieving the Great Dao and becoming the Supreme Being of the world."

Xuan Hui also spoke in praise.

"Fellow Daoist Saint Emperor is truly worthy of the name of the Sun. The Dao is extremely exquisite and is as unrivaled as the Sun in history."

After they praised each other again, Xuan Hui became serious.

“Fellow Daoist Saint Emperor, the path to becoming an immortal will only open in 40,000 years at most. By then, I’m afraid the greatest dark turmoil in history will erupt.”

"You have the help of the Emperor Tower and the Fusang Fairy Spirit. If you stay asleep, it shouldn't be difficult to hold on until then. When chaos comes, all living beings will still need your help."

The Sun Saint Emperor naturally understood what Xuan Hui meant by this. He actually had the same idea. Xuan Hui's help gave his obsession too much room to maneuver. The power he could exert was much greater than the fruit of Taoism that could be borrowed from a mere divine thought.

Therefore, the Sun Saint Emperor also spoke in a firm tone.

"I understand what you mean. After I have arranged all the matters concerning the Daoist tradition, I will not appear again. I hope you will keep your eyes on the Sun Lineage."

"I think you will achieve enlightenment in this life, so I would like to tell you something."

“The road ahead is full of hardships, and immortality is difficult. Only the two words ‘heart’, though seemingly insignificant, are actually the most important.”

"I hope that ten thousand years from now, you can remember what I said today. If we meet again in the future, I hope we can still stand together."
