Chapter 472: Former Saints, Today’s Saints, and Not Yet Saints
If you gather three flowers and gather five qi, you will never be able to wear down the Great Luo Immortal through all the calamities.
The Zixiao Palace was full of three thousand guests. Just after listening to Hongjun's sermon, nearly a hundred people had already achieved the position of Daluo. It can only be said that it is worthy of the ancient world of immortality. The foundation of the first world created by Pangu Dao is far beyond any other. The world is comparable.
Different from the legends of later generations, Hongjun did not accept any disciples after he finished preaching. Neither Sanqing, Nuwa, nor the Two Saints of the West became disciples of Hongjun.
After the three thousand guests left, only the golden boy, Gu Zhi and Hongjun were left in the entire Zixiao Palace.
"Xuanyuan, do you know what a saint is?" Hongjun asked.
Gu Zhi did not answer the question immediately, but thought about it carefully. In the past, he thought that the Hunyuan Wuji Saint should be in a realm above Daluo, but after listening to Hongjun's sermon, he found that this was not the case.
Because Hunyuan Wuji Sage is not fundamentally improved compared to Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, the difference between the two should not be cultivation, but something else.
"Back to Dao Ancestor, this junior doesn't know."
Faced with the question of Hongjun, a Taoist ancestor, Gu Zhi thought over and over again and rejected many answers. First of all, a morally perfect man could not be the answer to this question.
This ‘holy’ should have a deep meaning.
"Actually, you are also a saint, but you are a saint who is trying to be tricky."
Hongjun explained: "The preaching in ancient times is called the sage of the past, the continuation of the past and the beginning of the future is called the sage of the present, and the rise and fall of the continuation is called the unsage."
Apart from this, there is no holy path.
However, in the prehistoric world of immortality, Hongjun is the only reality, absolutely invincible, and the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal is immortal. There is no unsage existence that continues to rise and die.
There is actually only one holy path in this world, and that is to continue the past and open up the future, that is, to inherit Hongjun's immortal path and continue to educate all living beings.
"So, the creation of the world is also a holy way."
Gu Zhi suddenly understood why Hongjun was the Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian instead of Da Luo Jinxian, because he occupied the source of the enlightenment avenue.
It is the beginning of chaos, the origin of a concept.
"Of course."
Hongjun waved his hand and moved Gu Zhi, who had finished listening to the class, to the wild world, allowing him to truly enter this world and become a reality.
The Daode Tianzun's way of survival, the Yuanshi Tianzun's obedience to heaven and destiny, and the Tongtian Cult Master's teachings without distinction.
In fact, they all inherited Hongjun's Immortal Way and belong to the current Saint among the Saints.
Therefore, it is reasonable to call them Hongjun's direct disciples.
So, Taoist Patriarch, do you want me to follow the path of prosperity and destruction? After all, I am not a creature from the ancient world.
Gu Zhi suddenly had a headache and continued to rise and fall. It was based on Hongjun's Immortal Way to evolve an Immortal Way that was more suitable for all living beings to practice, and it had to be no weaker than Hongjun's Immortal Way. This was really difficult.
Ever since he was born, Gu Zhi wandered across the vast land, even though he knew that the homework Hongjun left for him after school was as difficult as the sky.
But he still had to do it, and the first step was to record it. The rise and fall of things can be seen in history.
The ancient world is missing a true history.
Pangu opened the world, and the first batch of innate beings were born. Hongjun clarified the way, organized thousands of laws, and turned them into the way of heaven. So far, the world has moved in an orderly manner, with the four seasons rotating and day and night alternating.
Next is Hongjun’s sermon.
But this is not enough...
After much thought, Gu Zhi decided to use Sima Qian's biographical style to write a biography of the innate saints throughout the ancient world.
In the name of completing his homework, Gu Zhi's first stop was Kunlun Mountain, Sanqing's dojo.
When Hongjun threw Gu Zhi into the wild world, the innate saints sensed that there was an additional disciple in Zixiao Palace, named Xuanyuan.
Kunlun Mountain is located in the east of the prehistoric world, and to the south of the Kunlun Mountain is the Buzhou Mountain. It is said to be the center of the prehistoric world, suppressing the earth's veins and the stars in the sky.
In short, it is far away, which means that Gu Zhi has a bit of Da Luo's characteristics. If he were not replaced by a Taiyi Golden Immortal, it would take ten thousand years just to travel.
On Kunlun Mountain, Sanqing is designing palaces for himself. The Tusita Palace of Daode Tianzun, the Yuxu Palace of Yuanshi Tianzun, and the Biyou Palace of Tongtian Cult Leader have all taken shape.
As for the materials used, of course, the soil is used as the cement, the nine-day white jade is used as the bricks, and the innate sacred wood is used as the beams. It should be as grand as possible.
At this time, the three Qings were still as close as brothers, and the palaces were very close to each other.
Seeing Gu Zhi coming, Tongtian immediately stopped, took a step forward and came to Gu Zhi's side, patted his shoulder and said, "I didn't expect that you would be noticed by Master and become our little junior brother."
When Sanqing decided to follow the Holy Path of Succession and Destruction, they had already become Hongjun's disciples. Naturally, they regarded Gu Zhi, who had inherited the Holy Path of Succession and Destruction, as their junior disciple.
Gu Zhi straightened his clothes and said seriously: "I have met three senior brothers."
Sanqing is the strongest person under Hongjun. The past, future and present are eternally the same. Although it is the beginning of Hongjun's enlightenment, the three of them will become Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian in the future, which means standing in front of Gu Zhi The ones are the three Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
The opportunity given by the Gate of Eternal Life is really great, and I am afraid that even He himself has not thought of it.
"Ah."
Yuanshi nodded, glared at the frivolous Tongtian with some displeasure, and then said to Gu Zhi: "It is more difficult for acquired beings to attain Daluo than for innate beings, especially if you have achieved Hunyuan Daluo." If you are in a fruit position, the disasters you will encounter will be beyond your imagination.”
"However, after Master brings you into the wild world, even if you fail, you will still have a chance to come back."
Daode on the side touched his long beard, cast an appreciative look at Gu Zhi, and introduced himself: "Daode, the first of the three pure spirits, was transformed from one of the three pure qi left by the great god Pangu. Because he was born first, he Also known as Taishang."
"The seventh Yuanhui born after the creation of heaven and earth, slightly later than the first batch of innate beings such as Teacher, Qiankun, Yin and Yang."
Gu Zhi quickly took out a pen and paper to record, followed by Yuan Shi and Tong Tian.
The current name of Lord Tongtian is Lingbao. It was after he attained enlightenment that he changed his name and became Lord Tongtian.
But one thing is very special. They are innate gods, not innate chaotic gods and demons, because they were born in the prehistoric world after Pangu created the world.
Their word "Xiantian" is not prior to heaven and earth, but prior to heaven.
Before the birth of the Dao of Heaven, the world was in chaos, and laws and orders were manifested. Only then did the innate gods, innate treasures, and spiritual roots emerge.
Being able to be fully born in such an era is truly sacred.
After leaving Kunlun Mountain, Gu Zhi walked to Buzhou Mountain. On the way, he saw some Wu tribesmen running around carrying mountains to polish their strength.
By the way, it should be mentioned here that the Twelve Ancestral Witches created the Tao, the Tao of Witchcraft, or it may become the Tao of Martial Arts, which does not cultivate life but only cultivates strength.
Because the twelve ancestral witches are born immortal, and their souls and bodies are integrated into one body. As for those witch clans, they are actually transformed by the blood given by them.
After Gu Zhi recorded the twelve ancestral witches, he went to Buzhou Mountain to meet the brothers Fuxi and Nuwa, then Sun Star and Taiyin Star, and finally Sumeru Mountain and Beiming.
It took him a year to visit the three thousand guests in the Zixiao Palace, but there were more than just these people in the ancient world. When he arrived at the Nanli volcano, before he even got close to the center of the fire veins, he saw a parasol tree that covered the sky and the sun. Tree.
Innate spiritual roots, Wutong, the place where the Phoenix lives.
"The comer stops."
A cold divine sound sounded, and from the phoenix nest on the sycamore tree, a beautiful divine bird was revealed. Its aura was so strong that it was also at the Daluo level.
"My descendant, Xuanyuan, came here to record the sentient beings in the ancient times, and I asked Zu Feng to facilitate me."
boom!
Another majestic aura rose, and another divine bird appeared in the phoenix nest.
"I am Zu Feng."
The phoenix is the male, the phoenix is the female, and the phoenix is a pair.
strangeness! Why are they born big.
Gu Zhi was stunned. The innate saints were still cultivating the three flowers and five qi, but this pair of phoenixes were already powerful, extremely powerful.
No wonder Hongjun didn’t even go to preach.
"The phoenix perched on the phoenix tree is a magnificent scene of heaven and earth. To see it today is truly a worthwhile trip."
Gu Zhi painted with splashed ink, painted a picture of a phoenix falling on a sycamore tree, and handed it over.
"This is a small gift, please accept it."
Words, paintings, language...
Little did he know that his actions at this moment were instructing Phoenix on how to create civilization. Next, he went to Donghai and Beimang, met Zulong and Zuqilin, and obtained their birth experiences in the same way.
After comparison, Gu Zhi finally knew what Phoenix, Qilin and Zulong were.
They are not innately divine, but they are innate gods. They occupy the four poles of earth, fire, fengshui, and are the indispensable foundation of heaven and earth.
Therefore, in this vast world, they can be born as Da Luo.
For the last stop, Gu Zhi went to the most dangerous place in the ancient world, the Nine Nether Blood Sea and the Styx River.
Taoist Styx has been born, but he suspected that the lecture in Zixiao Palace was a conspiracy, so he did not step into the sea of blood. After all, Da Luo couldn't even try to capture him here.
From him, Gu Zhi learned a fact that was different from the legends of later generations. The two swords of Yuantu Abi were not innate treasures, but sword embryos condensed by the way of killing after the birth of Minghe. They are acquired treasures. .
It is also because of this that the Styx Taoist would stay in the sea of blood like an otaku, just to cultivate two swords.
Speaking of acquired treasures and innate treasures, Gu Zhi also made other discoveries. For example, innate treasures are not accompanied by innate sacred treasures.
According to the legend, the Daode Tianzun has the Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth on his head, and carries the Tai Chi Diagram on his back. But now the Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth has not appeared at all, and the Tai Chi Diagram is not in the hands of Daode Tianzun, but in the hands of the ancestor of Yin and Yang, called the Yin and Yang Diagram.
Similarly, the Pangu Banner and the Qiankun Cauldron are all in the hands of Qiankun Taoist. The Four Swords of the Immortal, the Formation of the Immortal, and the God-killing Spear have not appeared. The innate five-color and five-square flags are in the hands of the Zulong, Zuqilin, and Zuphoenix.
As for the Chaos Bell, there is no definite news, and it seems that it has not been born.
Therefore, the Fenbaoya incident that was widely rumored in later generations was not right.
Gu Zhi thought of what he had done in the mortal world. As an immortal world, the mortal world had one Qi transforming into the three pure beings, the immortal way, and the heaven...
Generally speaking, the mortal world has been interfered with by information from the prehistoric world, and the two are paradoxical.
There were also Ancestral Dragon, Ancestral Qilin, Ancestral Phoenix, and Ancestral Phoenix, and there was also the Long-Han era, but they were destroyed because they hindered Gu Zhi's path to success.
But the prehistoric world is different. According to the Gate of Eternal Life, it was because of the arrival of Rahu, which instigated a civil war among the three tribes and caused the Lich Catastrophe, which caused calamities to occur in the prehistoric world.
Rahu here is still the original main god.
Since Hongjun failed to kill Yuan, it means that there is not much difference in strength between the two, and there is no theory that Hongjun could predict what Luo Hu would do in advance.
In other words, Hongjun never thought about ending the Long Han era and making way for his immortal way.
Not to mention allowing people, who are born with an innate Taoist body, to become the orthodoxy of heaven and earth.
Because this is what the current sage should do to carry forward the past and open up the future, not the sage Hongjun.
It can be inferred from this that there is no story about Fenbaoya at all. How those innate treasures passed from their original owners to the hands of those legendary people is the truth that a historian should pursue.
Gu Zhi was walking on the shore of the East China Sea when three figures in fiery red robes suddenly appeared in front of them. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be the three siblings from the Sun Star.
"You three are looking for me."
Hearing this, Di Jun and Taiyi pushed the eldest sister Xihe and asked her to come up and speak.
What two useless brothers.
Xihe glared at his two younger brothers with hatred, then stepped forward and saluted Gu Zhi.
"I've met Taoist Brother Xuanyuan."
Gu Zhi nodded, returned the salute, and said, "Fellow Taoist Xihe, please tell me something."
The last time he went to Sun Star as a guest, he found that the three sisters wanted to ask something, but they always hesitated and couldn't say anything.
Of course, this is no wonder for them. After all, they are only Golden Crows who are only a few hundred thousand years old. In addition, the biggest scene they have ever seen in the beginning of the prehistoric era is the lecture in Zixiao Palace.
"We have received the favor of Taoist Hongjun from preaching, and we want to spread the Immortal Way to the ancient times to strengthen the Immortal Way and repay this kindness."
"But we three sisters and brothers are weak and we will definitely not be able to achieve results, so we would like to ask Taoist Brother Xuanyuan to give us some guidance."
No wonder you three siblings were able to sit on the three major thrones in heaven after the Longhan Era. This realization is really not bad at all.
Gu Zhi listened with great interest and suddenly smiled and said, "You can set up an organization and let those like-minded Taoists join in."
"For example, let Taoist friends who have heard the sermons at Zixiao Palace be the management, and the three of you will be the leaders, and then recruit people who have not heard the sermons as team members."
"When the team members are successful in practicing the Immortal Way, they can be promoted to management, and the cycle continues until the Immortal Way can be spread."
I really didn’t expect that before Sanqing accepted disciples, the three Sun Star siblings had already begun to meditate hard on spreading the immortal way. How would I know it if I didn’t experience it personally.
The eyes of the three siblings were bright when they heard this. They all bowed to Gu Zhi and said loudly: "Thank you, Taoist Brother Xuanyuan, for your guidance. If I have an assignment in the future, I will not refuse."
After saying that, Di Jun and Tai Yi took their sister Xi He and left. Now they are high-spirited and full of energy.
Gu Zhi looked at the history book in his hand. At present, he only recorded the origins of the creatures in the prehistoric times, and there were very few historical events.
Therefore, the current historical annals cannot yet become the historical records of the prehistoric times.
It can only be called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".
I record history, promote history, and become history.
If you don’t see prosperity and don’t know destruction, how can you continue to rise and fall?
