In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 84 May this scene endure forever, unmoved by the eight seasons and four periods.

Xie Lingxin's sudden flash of inspiration.

It's actually just memories from a past life being rekindled.

He recalled the first battle in Journey to the West where Sun Wukong attained enlightenment.

They shattered the filthy water cave and subdued the chaotic demon king.

Previously, I only thought it was Sun Wukong returning from his apprenticeship and displaying his divine power for the first time, a standard "feel-good" novel trope.

At this time, he received guidance from Bai Ruhui and also viewed the Xuan Turtle Guarding the Mountain Painting.

This is hardly a wish-fulfillment story.
Breaking through the filthy cave and subduing the chaotic demons is a perfect illustration of sweeping away the yin impurities in the kidneys and purifying the kidney essence into true qi.

The kidneys belong to the water element, and the water organ is the kidney.

The Mischievous Demon King resides in Kanyuan Mountain, symbolizing the yin turbidity in the kidneys and the yin demon within Kan.

The alchemical texts state: "The Kan Palace is in danger, and the true Yang is obscured."

Those who build their foundation refine the true essence in their kidneys and transform the true qi in their hearts.

Isn't that how it is?
The kidneys are the root of the five internal organs, and essence is the foundation of vital energy.

It's not just about the book Journey to the West.

Xie Lingxin still remembers that the Huangting Jing says: "The kidney spirit is called Xuanming, which nurtures the infant."

It refers to the spirit within the kidneys, which is the innate primordial essence.

In Taoism, there is also the saying that Zhenwu (真武) can suppress obstacles.

Zhenwu the Great, with his feet treading on a tortoise and a snake, guards the northern Kan position.

The northern mysterious waters give rise to all things.

There are also folk temples built by the water to suppress floods, which coincides with the idea of ​​using true yang to subdue kidney turbidity.

All these interpretations are essentially the same as the true meaning contained in the Xuan Gui Zhen Yue Tu (玄龟镇岳图) as taught by Bai Ruhui.

If the Black Tortoise doesn't work, then the Mind-Breaking Monkey will do the same.

The Black Tortoise guarding the mountain is a method.

The mind-monkey refines the source of the mind, and suppresses the filth of the water; it is all the same method.

Once an idea arises, act accordingly.

There's no need to go against one's own nature; using the Black Tortoise to suppress the restless mind is merely an attempt to suppress and erode one's true nature.

Unexpectedly, this flash of inspiration actually made him succeed.

of course.

The key elements are still indispensable; it's not something he can do as he pleases.

Without this Xuan Turtle Guarding the Mountain Diagram, Xie Lingxin would not have been able to comprehend the true meaning of Xuan Water, nor would she have been able to forge this divine mountain.

Without the legendary power given to him by Bai Ruhui, he could not refine the Xuan Shui.
Without refining the Xuan Water and without Yin Thunder, he could not revitalize the Divine Mountain, making it a true place of life, the source of the Kan Mountains, and the root of the five internal organs.

Yin thunder and mysterious water are the very moment and origin of the birth of all things.

Kidney essence is the source of life and the foundation of one's innate constitution.

Cultivating the physical body naturally begins with the kidneys.

However, just as the restless mind cries out.

If it becomes stronger than me in cultivation in the future, it might really turn the world inside my body upside down, that is, turn the tables and make me the master of this body.

Humph.

I refuse to believe that you, you little rascal, can turn the world upside down!

If that's really the case, you don't need to cause trouble in the Heavenly Palace; I'll just cut myself up!
at this time.

Under Bai Ruhui's spiritual power, Xie Lingxin's body was radiating vitality, and her blood energy surged like a river, the sound of which could be clearly heard.

If Xie Lingxin, who had just entered, was like the rising sun, then...

Now, he is like the rising sun, the earth returning to spring, all things thriving, and a scene of boundless beauty.

Serene, warm, peaceful, and uplifting...

It seems that every positive word can be used to describe him.

How is this going?

Didn't we fail?

Even if one successfully refines the Xuan Turtle Suppressing the Mountain Diagram, one has never heard of such a magnificent aura.

Those who have mastered the Xuan Turtle that guards the mountain are unmoved by their six senses, restrained by their desires, and possess a calm and dignified demeanor, as deep and imposing as a mountain.

The authority of the ruler should not be violated lightly.

Where can I find something like this?

In surprise, Xie Lingxin opened her eyes.

He quickly asked, "What did you do?!"

"?"

Xie Lingxin looked at Bai Ruhui, who was almost pouncing on her, and said, "Practice your skills."

He pointed to the Xuan Turtle Guarding the Mountain Diagram that Bai Ruhui had rolled up in his hand.

"Didn't you make me practice?"

"..."

Bai Ruhui remained silent for a long while before asking, "You...you've mastered it?"

"hold head high!"

"impossible!"

Bai Ruhui flatly denied it.

Xie Lingxin scratched her head, unsure of what to say.

Indeed, strictly speaking, what he mastered was not the Xuan Turtle Suppressing the Mountain technique, although it was indeed derived from this painting.

Bai Ruhui said seriously, "Tell me in detail."

"The method of visualization is rooted in the mind, connected with the spirit and soul, and intricately intertwined with the physical body; there can be no error whatsoever!"

Xie Ling thought for a moment and then recounted the process.

"What did you say?"

"The black waters flowed endlessly, like a vast ocean?!"

"A mountain a hundred feet high, with flowers and trees blooming in vibrant springtime?!"

Bai Ruhui looked dazed.

He had no interest in listening to what was said about Kanyuan Mountain and Shuizang Cave.

"Yes."

"..."

Bai Ruhui remembered that when he had just completed the Xuan Turtle Suppressing the Mountain Diagram, the black water he visualized was a small puddle about one foot square.

A little turtle was carrying a small stone the size of a palm on its back, crawling and crawling in a puddle...

Even so, his master praised him as a once-in-a-century talent, the hope of Wudang.

His senior brother, the sect leader, was known as a once-in-a-millennium prodigy in his youth. He visualized a pond of black water with a black tortoise as large as a millstone, capable of supporting boulders as big as small mountains.

He suppressed his restless mind from beginning to end until it was suffocated, but in the end, he refined it completely.

Now it seems……

Master, you've deceived me so badly!

Xie Lingxin: "Teacher Bai, why are you crying?"

"...It's nothing, just some wind in my eyes."

Bai Ruhui waved his hand somewhat dejectedly. "I won't ask anymore, I won't ask anymore..."

The heart of Tao will be shattered.

The voice was deep and resonant: "Do you remember what I told you last time, that someone once obtained an ancient scripture?"

"According to the scriptures, in ancient times there were true immortals who refined the Mind Monkey, who could enter and exit the chaotic realm of spirit, enter the Heavenly Palace to steal immortal pills, enter giant seas to steal immortal treasures, enter treasure mountains to steal immortal peaches, steal all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and refine an indestructible body and an invincible fighting method?"

Xie Lingxin nodded: "I remember, you said that the Mind Monkey is extremely difficult to deal with, but it also contains great treasures."

"That ancient immortal also subdued this restless mind with great supernatural powers, thus attaining enlightenment and enjoying eternal immortal bliss, living as long as heaven and earth."

If it weren't for these words that he kept thinking about, he probably wouldn't have had that flash of inspiration today.

"good."

"That ancient immortal, just like you, was unwilling to erode his true nature and did not suppress his restless mind,"

"Instead, they choose to let things take their course, allowing them to roam freely."

"In the end, the Mind Monkey attained enlightenment, and he too attained enlightenment..."

"But...everyone knows that the Mind Monkey possesses a great treasure, yet apart from this ancient immortal, no one dares to do so,"

"Perhaps it's not that there aren't any, but those who did it all eventually died and disappeared from the world, never to be known by anyone."

Bai Ruhui looked at him with a complicated expression: "Now that you've embarked on this path, I can no longer teach you."

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, you have to bear it yourself.

He spoke with great earnestness and deep emotion, but Xie Lingxin suddenly became wary.

Oh no, he's going to run away with the money!
"Teacher Bai, you're not going to close the museum, are you?"

Bai Ruhui was baffled. How did he suddenly end up here?
"What? Why would I close a museum?"

Xie Lingxin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, Teacher Bai. I know nothing about cultivation, so I can't do without your guidance."

Bai Ruhui was moved; this child truly respected his teacher and was eager to learn.

It's a pity, a pity, I can't take him under my wing, so I can only do it this way...

He sighed inwardly, but was also relieved, saying, "If you have any questions, you can come anytime. I can still give you some pointers on some key points of cultivation, but I have nothing more to teach you on the true path."

Such a good child must be taught with all our might; we cannot let him go unchecked.

"That's good!"

Xie Lingxin patted her chest, relieved.

Only then did he begin to consider Bai Ruhui's words.

Recalling the description of the Water Dirty Cave in Journey to the West, he felt it was very suitable to use at this time.

He then recited: "There are countless famous mountains in the world, and countless flowers bloom and wither. But none can compare to this scene, which remains unchanged through the eight seasons and four periods of the year."

"Teacher Bai, I don't think we need to think about it so much."

There are countless ways in the world, like flowers blooming and withering, vying for beauty and splendor. Some endure, while others fade away; let them go as they please.

I only ask that this scene last forever, and that my nature remain unmoved and unharmed.

Simply put, it boils down to this: the most important thing in life is to be happy!
Bai Ruhui was taken aback upon hearing this. After pondering for a moment, he sighed and said, "I've cultivated for so many years, yet I'm not as open-minded as you. Alas..."

"If you possess the highest aptitude, I would gladly give up my life to take you back to our ancestral land and seek an opportunity to become an immortal..."

"Ok?"

Why would you risk your life? Is it really necessary to go to such extremes?

Seeing Xie Lingxin's puzzled expression, he waved his hand and said, "It was just a momentary feeling."

Given Xie Lingxin's talent and understanding, his actions tonight can be described as a high-stakes gamble.

If Xie Lingxin were not of average talent but of the highest caliber, then it wouldn't be a gamble.

He wasn't sure if he would definitely achieve enlightenment, but he was certain that he would be a part of the future struggle for the Great Dao!
I will do whatever it takes, even kidnap him, and take him back to the Wudang ancestral land.

Even those people, how could they bear to let such a beautiful piece of jade be left to languish outside?
What a pity, what a pity...

Xie Lingxin didn't know what he was thinking, but she didn't want to find out.

"Teacher Bai, the legendary power you just used..."

Not to mention that the Xuan Turtle Suppressing the Mountain Diagram is the treasure of the Southern Wudang Sect, even with Xie Lingxin's thick skin, she dared to feel some pressure from just this wisp of legendary power at the Ten Directions level.

This is an immense favor.

Bai Ruhui shook his head: "You don't need to take it to heart. Tonight's events were not for your benefit, but for my own selfish reasons."

"If you feel pressured, then give me face,"

"If you encounter any disciples of the Southern He Wudang Sect in the future and have a conflict with them because of Yin Thunder or Xuan Water, please give me some leeway for my sake."

"That's no problem!"

Xie Lingxin waved her hand.

He has burdens, but not many.

If you really ask him to do something incredibly difficult, he'll just pretend to be stupid and enjoy getting something for free.

But I can agree to this!

"..."

Bai Ruhui had also begun to see through the boy's true nature.

He who eats another's food is not bound by his word; he who takes another's money is not bound by his position.

He was utterly shameless.

As they were talking, a commotion came from outside.

"Teacher Bai, you're here so early today?"

Tian Tiantian appeared at the door.

"Oh? Little Lingxin? You're here too?"

"Sweetie! Good morning!"

I glanced at my phone and realized it was already past six in the morning.

Oops!
"Teacher Bai, Sister Tiantian, I'm off to work!"

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out.

"Huh? You're not going to class!"

"It's over!"

Tian Tiantian thought he was here to attend class. What time is it? Is he already finished?

Are you guys having classes in the middle of the night? What kind of classes are you having?
Bai Ruhui's eyes flickered.

He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, a blessing or a curse...

However, Xie Lingxin's performance gave him a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps... he really can make it through this path!
……

"I'm sorry!"

Shen Wen's face was so dark it could drip ink.

Who wouldn't be angry after sitting in a car all night exposed to the wind?
He was about to lash out when Xie Lingxin sat down. Upon closer inspection, he was immediately startled: "You..."

"what happened?"

"nothing……"

Shen Wen started the car.

But my heart is not at peace.

I have a feeling that this kid has changed a lot, but I can't quite put my finger on what has changed...
