Journey to the West: The Evil Monk of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 67 Asking about Enlightenment
On a mountain peak, Chen Xuan and Kui Mulang sat opposite each other, one of them listened and the other spoke, their expressions were very attentive and serious, occasionally Chen Xuan called out the Yuanshen, and Kui Mulang would guide him and teach him how to use it. , and how to sense the heaven and the earth with the primordial spirit, condense one's own way, and turn into a dharma phase to advance to the rank of golden immortal.

After listening to some teachings, Chen Xuan had a clearer understanding of the so-called practice. It turned out that in addition to mana, the improvement of cultivation base also needs to go through the world of mortals to refine one's heart and find one's own way. Only after corroborating evidence can we see the way forward and continue to move forward bravely.

"The world of mortals cultivates the mind, seeks the Tao, and speaks so mysteriously. How come you are still obsessed with love after reaching the peak of Xuanxian, and you can't see it through for a long time." Chen Xuan looked suspicious.

"Oh, the holy monk doesn't know that there are many obstacles in the way of cultivating the Tao. Let alone the severity of the five declines of heaven and man, all kinds of emotional and physical calamities alone can catch the cultivators by surprise." Kui Mulang sighed, suffering in his heart, only I know it myself.

"So, you are in a state of love." Chen Xuan guessed.

"That's right, I'm just in the midst of the tribulation of love. If I can't get through it, it will inevitably lead to the five declines of heaven and man." Kui Mulang looked worried.

"Then you are still holding on to Baihua ashamedly, shouldn't you beg the Empress for a Heartless Pill?" Chen Xuan was even more puzzled.

"But I can't bear it. The reason why this catastrophe is so powerful is that we know it is harmful, but we still rush forward like moths." Kui Mulang said helplessly.

"Then if you want to reconcile with Baihuasha, is it for crossing the catastrophe or for Baihuasha?" Chen Xuan couldn't help gossiping.

"I don't know, how can a person who is in a catastrophe see himself clearly?" Kui Mulang pondered for a long time, until finally he still had no answer.

"Don't talk about 'Jie', let's go on, can you help me find out what my 'Tao' is?" Chen Xuan saw that he was in a dilemma, so he changed the subject, and the question returned to 'Tao' again

"Your 'Tao', how do I know, you have to find it yourself." Kui Mulang had a headache, and it was the first time he saw a Taoist asking this question.

"Then what is your way?" Chen Xuan knew that he was a little idiotic in asking, but in order to improve his cultivation and make the journey to the west easier in the future, he decided to ask for advice so that he could use it as a reference.

"Oh, you don't understand anything, how do you cultivate Taoism and Xuanxian?" Kui Mulang couldn't help complaining.

"It should be because of taking drugs?" Chen Xuan scratched his head, quite embarrassed.

"Drugs?" Kui Mulang was puzzled.

"It's to eat natural materials and earthly treasures, such as ginseng fruit, flat peaches, etc." Chen Xuan explained.

"Why didn't you explode and die?" Kui Mulang asked strangely.

"I practice eight or nine profound arts." Chen Xuan answered truthfully.

"So that's the case, how can you cultivate eighty-nine profound arts with a mortal body?" Kui Mulang became more and more confused the more he listened.

"I'm actually the body of an ancestor witch." Chen Xuan thought it over and decided to tell the truth.

Kui Mulang was startled, and did not believe that Chen Xuan had such a precious body, because since the beginning of the world, there were only thirteen ancestral witches, twelve of whom died, and one was sealed by the emperor with five poles. How could there be another one.

Seeing that Kui Mulang didn't believe it, Chen Xuan didn't insist on arguing, because sometimes the truth is more difficult to believe, but lies full of deception are easier to flock to.

Continue to ask what the 'Tao' is, and finally after a lot of stalking, Kui Mulang had no choice but to talk about other people's Tao so that Chen Xuan could understand it himself.

Kui Mulang first talked about his Tao. He said that he was chosen by the stars, so the Tao is the stars, and the direction of becoming stronger is the order of the operation of heaven and earth.

Then he talked about Sun Houzi, saying that although he practiced eighty-nine profound arts, the "Tao" is not to open the world with strength, but more like a fearless way. In the face of it, we must break one by one.

In the end, Kui Mulang talked about many characters and guessed their Tao one by one. Some of them changed their Tao midway, and some still insisted on it. After talking, Chen Xuan gradually had a guess about the Tao.

The so-called "Tao" is similar to dreams. The difference is that dreams are the pursuit of a better future, while "Tao" is close to the source. Realizing the power of one's own "Tao", as long as you fit with it, you can dominate the law, change the order, and become a god.

The "Tao" can be divided into big and small, and the "Tao" can grow. As long as the small "Tao" transforms, it can eventually become a big "Tao".

At noon, Chen Xuan had an understanding of the 'Tao'. Although he still didn't know what his 'Tao' was, at least he had a direction to pursue.

But he thought that searching for the 'Tao' was a bit vague, so he decided to put it aside for a while, and plan it when he entered Suiyue Mountain at night. The main problem now is to make lunch, and then help Kui Mulang make a hundred flowers shame.

In the same way, Chen Xuan cooked a table of dishes, and then let the best friends Er Huang and Bai Gu encourage Bai Huaxie to eat, and finally asked Kui Mulang to push hard. Unsurprisingly, Baihuaxie was not fake Rejecting Kui Mulang's kindness, he ended up hastily, and ordered Xiong Da and Yao Yaoling to clean up the mess, while Chen Xuan went to ask about cultivation.

In the evening, Chen Xuan was like this again, Kui Mulang didn't need to tell him, and finally knew how to take the initiative to attack, but it didn't work out, Baihuasha still didn't appreciate it, so he ended up again, waiting for tomorrow.

"Will this method work?" After everyone finished, Bai Gu secretly held Chen Xuan and whispered softly.

"I don't know, but I have to try." Chen Xuan was thinking about finding the 'Tao', but he didn't pay attention to the intimate movement of Bai Gu's ear.

"But Bai Huaxie has already resisted a little, aren't you afraid of the reverse effect." Bai Gu got closer and exhaled like blue at Chen Xuan.

"It's normal, but it's okay. Anyway, she has nothing to do. As long as there are big and small Erhuang assists, she will be on the table obediently in the end." Chen Xuan was itchy from the blow, but his heart was full of 'Dao', so he scratched his ears and was anxious Said to the bones: "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Hmph, get out of here." Bai Gu was furious, and secretly blamed Chen Xuan for ignoring her all day.

"Oh." After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he returned to the room, not noticing the abnormality of the white bones behind him.

In the room, Chen Xuan took out the Map of Mountains, Rivers and Sheji, entered Suiyue Mountain, came to Suiyue Realm, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and began to search for his 'Tao'.

Time passed quietly, and decades passed in the blink of an eye, but there was still nothing to be gained, but the Bajiu Xuan Gong inexplicably broke through, reaching the fourth turn and second level realm.

"Inadvertently inserted willows and willows into Yin, I didn't expect that the 'Tao' was not found, but the kung fu has broken through." Chen Xuan muttered to himself, and then closed his eyes again to be persistent.

After another three or four years, Chen Xuan opened his eyes again. This time he did not find the 'Tao', nor did he break through in his skills, so he decided to change his thinking and use the method of asking and answering himself to find the 'Tao'.

"'Tao' is similar to dreams, they are all illusory. One of them is expectation, and the other is truth. Why don't I try to use dreams to find it."

"What is my dream?" Chen Xuan muttered, and then his eyes lit up, thinking of occupying the mountain as king, marrying a wife, having a baby, raising a mistress, being free and unrestrained.

"My dream is so humble, it's just my wife and children on the bed." Chen Xuan's bright eyes quickly dimmed, and he suddenly felt very ashamed.

But then he cheered up again, because he thought of a problem. If he wanted to live a comfortable life, he had to finish the Journey to the West first. If he wanted to finish the Journey to the West as soon as possible, he had to push it across. The monster will be delayed for a while.

What should I do if I don't want to delay?Then there must be strength, but where does the strength come from? His first thought was to take drugs, but he found that this method was not appropriate, because since eating ginseng fruit and flat peach, other natural materials and earth treasures have had little effect.

Apart from taking drugs, there is only cultivation. He thought of Bajiu Xuangong, which can be upgraded as long as he abuses himself. However, he quickly rejected it because he is afraid of pain, so even with the superior condition of Suiyue Mountain , but still don't want to work too hard.

"Is there any way to level up without self-torture?" Chen Xuan pondered, and after a while, his eyes lit up.

"Self-torture is to stimulate the potential. I can also find a kung fu method to stimulate the potential. I am a fucking genius, and with the body of an ancestral witch, the potential is endless. At that time, the cultivation base will not be able to increase." Chen Xuan Self-satisfied, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and immediately went out of Suiyue Mountain, looking for Kui Mulang to inquire about similar exercises.
