Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

Chapter 235 Hong Yi, your academic qualifications are higher than mine!
The wild land is a general term for many barren lands overseas. It is full of monsters and beasts, as well as witches, ghosts, and demons that have long been eliminated by human civilization. It is a place completely different from civilization.

Even barbarians like the Yunmeng Kingdom regard the wild land as a barbaric place, and they are barbarians among barbarians.

As for the Wuguidao that is entrenched in the wild land, it is an extremely evil sect that mainly cultivates evil ghosts and offers blood sacrifices to humans to become demons. Naturally, this sect is not tolerated by the orthodox world, and it is impossible for it to stay in a civilized and prosperous place. It can only go to the wild land and seduce some savage natives.

At this time, Hong Yi's ship was heading towards the desolate land.

Of course, the destination of the ship is not the wild land. The ship will first go to Izumo. After digesting the many gains this time in Izumo, everyone will go to the wild land.

Izumo is also a small country overseas with a small population, and it is not as prosperous as Kamikaze. But it has one advantage, which is that it is far away from the Daqian Dynasty and is not a vassal state of the Daqian Dynasty.

In addition, when Zen Ginsha was reincarnated and practicing, she was reincarnated as a princess of Izumo Kingdom.

For this reason, Hong Yi decided to digest all his shameful gains in Izumo.

After all, after the assassination of the imperial envoy, many people could no longer return to the Daqian Dynasty and could only settle down in Izumo Province.

"The human heart is dangerous, the heart of Tao is subtle, only by being precise and focused can one hold the middle ground."

On the Taoshen warship, three masters were sitting on three chairs. Hong Yi was holding a book in his hand, reading quietly, and seemed to have some understanding.

"Hong Yi, the book you read doesn't seem to be any Taoist scripture. Do you really want to go back to the Daqian Dynasty to take the imperial examination?"

Chan Yinsha was playing with the Xiandu Jade Huang. When she heard what Hong Yi was reading, she asked curiously.

"That's not true."

Hong Yi smiled and put the book on the table next to him. "After breaking through the ghost immortal realm, I read the old sage books again, and I had new insights. For example, the sixteen words I just read are about the human heart. The sages said that we should keep the doctrine of the mean in our hearts. Only in this way can we handle many affairs. It's a pity that the scholars nowadays can no longer read the sage books, and regard these books as a way to obtain fame and honor."

Hong Yi looked at the book, thoughtfully.

"It's a good idea to comprehend the principles of life from the principles in the books, but these principles cannot be comprehended unless you reach a certain level. For example, you can only gain something else from reading after you, Hong Yi, are promoted to a ghost fairy. You should have other ideas when you first read."

Fang Qing spoke, his soul glanced at the book Hong Yi was reading.

The human heart is only dangerous, the Taoist heart is small, the essence is only one, and the persistence is in the middle.

"What the senior said is true. Before I was promoted to a ghost fairy, I read the books of sages with a strong purpose. I only had the imperial examination as a way out."

Hong Yi nodded.

"The Confucian way of self-cultivation is indeed extremely subtle, but if Confucianism only cultivates the way and not the art, then it is too decadent. It is useless to talk about great principles without the ability to save the world and save people, and to be unable to resist the sword and the weapon."

Chan Yinsha said, "There are thousands of principles. Even the ignorant people know a few of them. But if you only talk about principles without talking about skills, it will just be empty talk. The great principles are often heard, but the small skills are hard to find."

"Hmm? This is quite insightful. That's right. The Great Dao must be cultivated, and the magic must also be cultivated. The Dao and the magic are inseparable."

There was a look of surprise on Hong Yi's face, as if he had not expected that Chan Yinsha could explain such a truth.

"That's what my master said."

Chan Yinsha looked at Hong Yi with an embarrassed expression.

"What your teacher said makes a lot of sense. Great principles are common, but small techniques are hard to come by. You see, we are in this dimension of time and space, but how many people can comprehend the techniques of time and space and master the flow of time and space?"

Fang Qing sighed.

"The flow of time..."

Chan Yinsha listened to Fang Qing's words and thought for a moment. "In today's world, the one who has the most profound understanding of the flow of time and space should be the Supreme Dao. They visualized the Tower of Taiyu and the Bell of Zhouji. Each bell and tower are manifestations of the principles of time and space, but I have never fought with a master of the Supreme Dao."

"The Supreme Way..."

As Hong Yi listened to this sect, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

His mother was the holy lady of the previous generation of the Supreme Taoism. She died soon after marrying into the Marquis's Mansion. He still needed to know and deal with all the grievances and hatreds between them.

Several people read books, meditated and preached on this big ship, and each gained something from it.

Hong Yi stood up and moved slowly, neither hurried nor slow, but there was a very mysterious Taoist charm in his movements.

After reading the books of sages, he truly grasped the doctrine of the mean in martial arts, realized some principles of the unity of body and soul, and used his spirit to nourish his qi and blood. Suddenly, he comprehended the deeper mystery of the complementary nature of yin and yang, and quickly recovered from the weak state of the ghost immortal.

Normally, after a cultivator breaks through to the level of a ghost immortal, his body will be very weak, and he may even suffer a serious illness, because the body's yang energy is largely taken away by the soul. However, Hong Yi comprehended the doctrine of the mean, the doctrine of the mean between Taoism and magic, and used his soul to nourish his qi and blood, so that his body recovered its vitality.

"The doctrine of the mean seems to have some of the meaning of yin and yang."

Fang Qing was amazed in praise. The doctrine of the mean appeared for the first time in his profound avenue. This doctrine of the mean was what Hong Yi read in a book and was then felt by Fang Qing.

The Doctrine of the Mean and the Yin-Yang Path are similar in many ways, but of course they also have some differences.

For example, when the Yin-Yang Dao is expanding rapidly, it can evolve into terrifying thunder, while the Doctrine of the Mean emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang, the balance of all things, and cannot expand rapidly.

Even so, Fang Qing comprehended some of the mysteries of the doctrine of the mean. The many secret realms in his body, the Wheel Sea Secret Realm, the Dao Palace Secret Realm, the Four Poles Secret Realm, and the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, all showed a kind of balanced resonance. Such a great idea could also have a blessing effect on his body everywhere.

Fang Qing's body became stronger and stronger.

Fang Qing stood up, took light steps, and performed a set of boxing techniques.

This set of boxing techniques looked very simple and standard, but because it was too standard, Chan Yinsha and Hong Yi looked so sad that they wanted to vomit blood.

"The doctrine of the mean is transformed into a kind of boxing, which can be called the Divine Fist of the Mean."

Fang Qing performed a set of boxing techniques. The artistic conception contained in this set of boxing techniques was moderation. If you look closely, you will find that many great ways are flowing, and countless divine powers and Taoist patterns are on this fist. The power is very terrifying, but in the eyes of others, it seems ordinary and plain, but people cannot avoid it.

If a cultivator were really hit by this punch, he would naturally be torn into pieces and die beyond all possibility of death.

This is also the reason why Hong Yi and Chan Yinsha felt very sad and wanted to vomit blood when they saw this set of boxing techniques.

It is simple and there is no way to avoid it, you can only take it head-on, and if you take it you will die.

How can I not be sad?

When Fang Qing finished this set of boxing skills, Hong Yi and Chan Yinsha looked at each other and praised him together.

They can also comprehend this set of boxing techniques, or turn it into their own magical martial arts fist.

"Reading can also reveal the realm of celestial phenomena."

Fang Qing remembered a sentence and continued to read, discuss and learn from each other on the battleship.

It has to be said that Hong Yi's talent as a scholar is terrifyingly amazing. He can comprehend many little tricks from reading.

The principles written down by the saints are just stepping stones to advancement for other people, but in Hong Yi's eyes today, these principles are truly many principles, which can then evolve into various small techniques.

Taoism, Taoism, it is absolutely not enough to have the Tao without the skills. And to comprehend the minor skills from the Tao is something that only the peerless geniuses can do.

Hong Yi is such a peerless genius.

He had a deep understanding of Confucian classics, which he transformed into various small techniques that greatly benefited his body and soul.

Even Fang Qing had to praise it.

He is indeed a scholar who has made great use of his knowledge.

In terms of academic qualifications, Hong Yi's academic qualifications are higher than his. After all, Hong Yi is already a juren at this time, and the next step is to take the examination for the top scholar. In ancient times, the juren and the top scholar are much more valuable than college students.

He is a college student.

There are also Ye Zi, Pang Bo and so on.

Of course, this does not mean that a high degree of education necessarily means a high level of Taoist cultivation. It is just some small thoughts in Fang Qing's spare time. Some peerless figures may not even have been to school, but came from the stone village in the wilderness.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. Fang Qing put those thoughts aside and continued reading and discussing.

The atmosphere in the venue was very good.

It is a very good thing to read books and discuss philosophy on this sea.

As the three of them discussed the Dao, their cultivation levels improved. Later on, they even talked about their peerless Daoist magic.

Chan Yinsha talked about the supreme secret of the Shenxiao Dao, which was called the Lightning Body Art. It was a unique skill created by the ancient Taoists in order to cultivate into the supreme immortal. It controlled thunder with the soul and stimulated the acupoints of the body, eventually reaching a state of unity of Taoism and martial arts.

This is the supreme magical power of the Shenxiao Dao, a secret that is never passed on. In order to explore this peerless method, the Shenxiao Dao really experimented on themselves, and many masters died, even a peerless master who had survived five thunder tribulations fell because of it.

Such peerless magical powers could originally only be taught to the closest Taoist companions, but now Chan Yinsha has also taught it, because she has really gained so many benefits in the process of listening to the teachings. Not only has her martial arts practice reached the level of a Martial Saint, but she is also getting closer and closer to a thunder tribulation.

So Zen Yinsha talked about the art of shining body with electric light.

This Taoist method also contains acupoints. Originally, there were five major acupoints, but four of them were lost during the process of transmission. Now there is only one major acupoint, named "Gu Shen".

The immortality of the Grain God is called Xuan Ni, and the gate of Xuan Ni is the root of heaven and earth.

The supreme and unique skill of the Divine Sky Dao includes the Valley Spirit Acupoint.
