Wet viviparity

Chapter 468: Breaking the Obsession, Yinming Moon
After finally getting rid of Lengcui Mountain, they forgot about how the two elders would arrange the matter of the Mirage Dragon Stone Cell after they got out of Lengcui Mountain and returned to the mountain.

"never mind!"

Patting his forehead, Ji Ming did not go back to the island.

There are thousands of different people in the world. Ji Ming didn't expect that the first thousand-year-old demon he met would be like this. It could stay on a spiritual island overseas for thousands of years and be so talkative. Could it be because it was suffocated by seclusion?

There are so many words, and I don’t know how much of them are true or false.

Ji Ming shook his head and returned to the ruined palace to continue comprehending the Taiyin Refining Form. In fact, there was no need to comprehend it any further as many obstacles were already known and all that was left was implementation.

Come to think of it, I have been in the Leiwen Mountain and Swamp for more than two years, and the huge bell has rung twice. I think I have been safe here all the time, which must be largely due to the care of Lord Lu of the Upper House.

There is no news here, and I don’t know what the situation is outside.

Ji Ming never thought that his arrangements were perfect. No matter how good or brilliant the arrangements were, if he, as a chess player, was trapped and was slow to make moves, he would be doomed to fail.

The way out of the impasse is actually right here.

"Grandpa."

Qianshouer sensed Ji Ming's inner thoughts, and said from his shoulders, "Are you hesitating?"

"Yeah, I'm hesitant."

Ji Ming patted Qian Shou'er's head, the hesitation in his eyes was like dew on a bottle, accumulating and lingering. He said: "The most difficult thing in life is to see through life and death, right and wrong, success and failure, honor and disgrace. This is egoism!"

"I understand. Grandpa wants to kill the immortal to prove his truth."

"Oh~"

Ji Ming was somewhat surprised and asked, "Is this the Buddhist principle taught by the goddess of music?"

"Yes." Qianshouer nodded and said, "The goddess said that to become a Buddha, one must kill Buddhas. Without killing, one cannot attain the Tao."

"What kind of Buddha is this?"

Ji Ming suddenly realized something and asked Qianshou'er.

"The Buddha in the heart is the appearance of the Dharma." Qianshouer stood up, with a pair of arms under him sitting cross-legged, and a pair of arms on his body clasped together, and said solemnly: "As the saying goes, 'abandoning benevolence and righteousness, the people will return to filial piety and kindness', the deeper the practice of the Dharma, the more we cling to the Dharma appearance.

To become an immortal and attain Buddhahood, one must kill the immortals when encountering them, and destroy the Buddhas when encountering them. This is to break the attachments without breaking the Dharma, and to break the appearances to reveal the truth. "

"Break the appearance to reveal the truth, break the attachment but do not break the Dharma."

Ji Ming stood up and walked, hands behind his back, barefoot, looking out at the lake, and said, "The breeze and the bright moon are sounds heard by the ears and colors seen by the eyes. Such a state of seeing and knowing the truth is difficult to experience often.

My hesitation at this moment is precisely because I am obsessed with the Dharma, have false thoughts, and have a desire for gain and loss, which prevents me from seeking the true nature of Taiyin Refining Form. "

Ji Ming sat cross-legged, abandoned his body and mind, and let his soul go to ride on the breeze on the lake and the moonlight on the waves.

On a nearby island, the Yuandan in Lengcui Mountain's belly began to stir. He felt something strange and went to the outside of the island to take a look. He saw that the wandering soul in the wind and moon seemed to be there and not there, close and far away. He forgot everything and followed the Tao.

"Ahaha~"

Leng Cuishan danced with his hands and laughed. The mole on his forehead bulged and a bird's claw stretched out from it. It reached into his belly and grabbed his own demon soul out of the Yuan Dan. The demon soul was like a handful of flowing water, which was thrown into the lake by the bird's claws.

“Daoyou, let’s ride the wind and the moon together and go to the nature together.” Without waiting for Ji Ming’s soul in the wind and the moon to respond, his demon soul went into the wind and the moon in the lake. Ji Ming in the hall shook his body and woke up. He opened his mouth and said, “This damned bastard is disturbing my enlightenment.”

Ignoring the demon spirits flying around the moon, Ji Ming instructed Qianshou'er and Huishenggui to guard the law in the circle. Then he looked at the three corpses and said, "Daoyou Li, let's get started!"

The three corpses raised their heads at the same time, their spines and skulls creaking, and said, "We've been waiting for you to say this."

The corpse on the far right stood up and took off the cloth on his body, revealing a round, smooth belly with a dead fetus inside. He put his hands together and said, "Come, follow me and chant the spell."

Ji Ming stared at the dead fetus in his belly, knowing that his soul would pass through the placenta of the dead fetus and reach the underworld, where he would retrieve the elixir from the dark moon that illuminated the underworld.

Taking a deep breath and picking up the dirty gold bottle, Ji Ming followed the corpse and chanted a spell. Gradually, the corpse began to sway, and Ji Ming's body swayed with it until he sat on the ground and died.

Do people go to the underworld after they die?
This question depends on the specific situation. For a soul that has not been trained, when it encounters a gust of wind after death, it will dissipate like a ray of light and will not even last until the first seven days. A slightly stronger soul may be able to hold on a little longer.

Those who have some knowledge of Taoism will find a good feng shui site for after death, but most people are too lazy to look for it.

Because their souls turn into ghosts after death, which is also another "me", not the real self. This "me" is formed by the innate spiritual light and the acquired desires, distracting thoughts, likes and hates, etc., combined with negative energy and even evil energy.

Ghosts have memories of their previous lives, strong emotions for their previous relatives, and countless obsessions that they could not obtain, but they have no feelings about themselves.

This is the reason why the souls and even ghosts after death want to pursue the "way of refinement and rebirth" in the refining and offering of food. Only by reviving in this way can they regain their innate spiritual light, which can be regarded as coming back to life.

Ji Ming could understand that souls whose life span had not yet ended after death and who had not yet been reincarnated into the ghost world would pursue this path, as his master was on this path.

However, those ghosts who know that they are no longer their original selves in life are also tirelessly pursuing this path. This is a very interesting thing.

At the moment of his death, Ji Ming did not think about anything else in his mind, but instead thought about the origin of the ghost. This was actually because his mentality had changed. He temporarily abandoned the Dharma, and his soul only followed the Tao.

Soon, he came to a familiar place - the line between Yin and Yang, and a feeling of weightlessness arose in his soul. This was because the soul was gradually contaminated by Yin energy and was attracted by the two ancient Yin worlds of the underworld and Haoli.

Generally speaking, in the south of the sky, people would go to Haoli, and in the north, people would go to the underworld.

However, with the intervention of the corpse, Ji Ming went directly to the more ancient Beiyin Underworld.

In the line between yin and yang, there was no light, no dust, no heaven and earth, no earth, fire, water, or wind. Gradually, he seemed to have passed through some kind of obstacle. He saw the dark mountains with pairs of light eyes blinking in them.

He sank below the ridge, and then, through the mist, he saw a high mountain.

On the top of the mountain, there was a golden light like the morning sun, and for a moment the mountain was clear and bright, as if he had returned to the world of the living. In a trance, he saw a god on the top of the mountain nodding to him.

"Great Immortal!"

Ji Ming understood clearly that this was Jinji Mountain.

Not long after, it went dark again. After a while, in the endless blue sky, one could see new and old earthen tombs on the rolling hills, stretching from here to the end of Ji Ming's vision.

After sinking into this state, Ji Ming knew that he had passed the three levels of Yin and Yang and officially set foot in the underworld.

When he got here, he felt light and airy instead. He kept floating up in the air and finally landed on a silver plate. A cool air suddenly arose. If Ji Ming were in Dharma form at this time, he would cast a spell to resist the cool air and thus his soul would become stiff and cold.

But at this time, Ji Ming had become detached and selfless. He only felt that there was something solid in the cool air. He listened carefully and heard it trickling. He opened his mouth to drink. Large streams of icy water went into his mouth, like drinking the snow marrow of a sacred mountain. He drank until he was full.
