Chapter 169: The Immortal World Chapter 22
As mentioned last time, after Xiao Mingyu woke up, Tianxin introduced Xuanwu Longlong to him. Unexpectedly, Palm Punishment Immortal Lord actually knew its origin, and then introduced its secret information. After everyone chatted, Qingdi and others also
Now that we know Tianxin’s plan, how will it develop next? Please read on.
"Pah, pah, pah, that's good. The Prince Consort is indeed a man among men. He actually came up with such a decision." Emperor Zhetian suddenly spoke in praise, and the others naturally nodded their heads.
Zhou Qing asked casually, "Brother-in-law, what is Zhuzhiqi?"
"Brother, the so-called "Zhu Zhi chess" means "Zhu Zhi chess". I have also heard about the past battles in the immortal world. In fact, generally speaking, it is undoubtedly for territorial reasons, and I want to accumulate and expand my territory.
That's all. Although this is the last wish passed down by emperors of all generations, I still guessed at two other possibilities. I don't know if what I said is right." Tianxin explained, and then said one of his guesses.
Qing Emperor was startled, then he forced himself to calm down and asked, "Tianxin, if you tell me, what other possibilities are there?"
"Although the emperors of the past dynasties have allowed their descendants to expand their own immortal realms and conduct battles. It is nominally for selfish reasons. Of course, this is inevitable. All immortals have the ambition to dominate the world, but I guess the emperors of the past dynasties must have also told other things.
Two possibilities. Cultivators, after hundreds or thousands of years of hard training, aim to ascend in the daytime and achieve the righteous fruition of the immortal world, so that they can be free and pure. However, this situation seems to be good, but in fact it has disadvantages. The immortals began to
When one is in love with ease, one loses the desire to fight, and no longer practices hard work, but instead seeks to be free and easy. As a result, very few people ascend to the realm of gods.
Although many people do not know the existence of the God Realm, it seems that it is not an accident, but that they have deliberately forgotten it. If this happens, it would be better to have a civil war in the Immortal Realm. If this happens often, the immortals can gradually mobilize their will.
The desire to win, after several wars, after elimination, the fittest will naturally survive, and others will realize that they have entered a fork in the road. Another possibility is that the five gods and humans have declined."
'He, how could he know this? It's impossible. Only gods can know this. He, a person who has only been cultivating to become an immortal for a long time, knows this.' At this moment, Qing Emperor was so surprised that he was a little dizzy. He quickly calmed down.
Then he asked in shock, "My dear son-in-law, how did you know that the five degenerates of heaven and humans are in decline? Logically speaking, only our four great emperors and a few elders in the immortal world know about this matter. How could you possibly know about it?"
Everyone was a little surprised to see Qing Emperor being so solemn. Even the three immortal kings only knew about it, and they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Tianxin.
"This is also one of the benefits of cultivating the Taoist Dao. Those with profound Taoism can communicate with heaven and earth and achieve the state of unity between heaven and man. Since ancient times, as far as we know, there are gods, immortals, demons, Buddhas, humans, and the six gods.
The world of gods is the highest, followed by immortals, Buddhas, and demons, and the human world is the lowest, but it has the most people. There are eight major realms of cultivation, and there are countless mortals in each realm of cultivation. The underworld is the most mysterious.
But as everyone knows, in addition to these six stable worlds, there are still three thousand great thousand worlds and countless small thousand worlds. Buddhists have heard that one Bodhi is counted, and there is a world in sand, and that is how it is.
Those who cultivate the Tao of my teachings and have profound Tao practices can communicate with heaven and earth and travel around the world. The more they experience, the more they will understand. Naturally, this is one of the five declines of heaven and man." Tian Xin is unhurried and unhurried.
He explained that although these three thousand great and small thousand worlds are real, they are the same as the five degenerates of gods and humans. He explains his own understanding of the world. The reason why he gained it by traveling through the great thousand worlds is nothing more than to make everyone more
A little trust and guessing will be more beneficial to your disciples' future missionary work.
It can be said that Emperor Qing was a little numb to Tian Xin's surprise at this time, but he still couldn't help but said, "I didn't expect that you even know about the world other than these six realms, and it seems that you have been there before. Hey, I don't even know."
What should I say?"
"Ms. sir, what is the Great Thousand World? Apart from the six realms you just mentioned, are there other worlds with humans? Is that fun? And what are the five degenerations of heaven and man? Looking at your appearance, Father, it seems that
I am very afraid of it." Princess Zhilan asked her question
Tianxin was so dizzy, this Zhilan was so funny, she even asked if the world is fun, haha, those who don’t know are not guilty.
Seeing Princess Zhilan asking, the others turned their attention to Tianxin again
Tianxin coughed dryly, "The so-called Great Thousand Worlds and Small Thousand Worlds actually mean that in addition to these six stable worlds, there are countless planes and spaces on parallel lines beyond these six realms, but these
Although there are as many worlds as the number of sands in the Ganges, they are not stable. If there is a slight catastrophe, the entire space will be destroyed. Among them, the small thousand worlds are the most serious, followed by the big thousand worlds. But they are destroyed so fast that they can be re-established in the blink of an eye.
No one can say why, it can only be said that it is the miracle of creation. If there are not these other dimensions, then do you think that we, the three realms of immortals, demons and Buddhas, can ascend every day, and there can be so many gods and men in the divine realm? It is impossible.
, although these large and small worlds are unstable, there are people with extraordinary qualifications and those who understand the great way of heaven and earth, and they can also ascend and realize the way. This is the theory of the great way. As for the five declines of heaven and man, how do you say it?
Well, it's a bit troublesome.
The so-called five declines of heaven and man refer to the various phenomena that appear when the life span of heaven and man is about to expire. The five declines also include the big five.
There are two types: decline and small five decline.
Big Five:
1. Clothes are dirty. Originally, the clothes of heavenly beings were clean and graceful, but at the end of their lives, they will begin to become dirty.
2. The flowers on the head will wither. The gods always wear bright crowns of flowers on their heads, but at the end of their lives, these crowns will slowly wither.
3. Sweating under the armpits. It is said that the bodies of heavenly beings are very clean on weekdays, but when they are dying, their armpits will start to sweat.
4. The body is stinky. The fragrant and clean body no longer smells bad, but smells bad.
5. Not happy with this seat. Originally, heavenly beings lived the most peaceful life, but at the end of their lives, they were not satisfied with this seat, and even felt tired and impatient. Xiao Wuwan:
1. The graceful heavenly music will no longer be played. Generally, drums will automatically sound wherever heavenly beings walk by, playing the graceful heavenly music. However, when the lifespan of the heavenly beings is about to end, the graceful heavenly music will no longer be played when heavenly beings walk by.
Raise it again.
2. The light naturally emitted by the body gradually fades away. Generally, heavenly beings are surrounded by divine light, but when the lifespan of a heavenly being is about to expire, the light naturally emitted by a heavenly being gradually fades away.
3. The bathing water will stick to the smooth skin of the gods. Generally, the bodies of the gods are very clean, and the water will dry naturally after bathing. However, when the life of the gods is about to end, the bathing water will stick to the skin of the gods.
It is not easy to evaporate from the human body.
4. Feeling reluctant to part with something. Generally, heavenly beings will not be too nostalgic for something, but when the life span of heavenly beings is about to end, heavenly beings will become reluctant to part with something.
5. The originally unobstructed Heavenly Eye has also been affected and cannot illuminate the world as before. Generally, the Heavenly Eye of heavenly beings is very good and can see the vast world without blinking. However, when the lifespan of a Heavenly Person is about to end, the original Heavenly Eye will
The unobstructed celestial eye has also been affected, unable to see the vast world as before, and blinking frequently like mortals. These can be alleviated through practice. The five declines of celestial beings are the ultimate sorrow, because celestial beings usually live extremely hedonistic lives.
The average life span is extremely long. Taking the shortest Four Heavens as an example, if fifty years is considered as one day and night, it is estimated that one can live up to five hundred years; and in this kind of long life, life
In a state of enjoyment, sentient beings in the heavenly realm (collectively referred to as the three realms of immortals, demons, and Buddhas) can easily have the reverse thought of "eternal, happy, me, and pure". Therefore, once they encounter the realm of the five declines of heaven and human beings, few will not be angry.
It is difficult not to fall into the evil realm. Therefore, among the six realms (the place of reincarnation in the underworld), the heavenly realm has only happiness and no pain, but the pain after the happiness is exhausted is unbearable for heavenly beings who have not practiced spiritual practice, and is much more difficult for human beings.
There is suffering and happiness, and there are causes and conditions for cultivating and helping the path. In the long run, all sentient beings in heaven will have their misfortunes. Regarding the "five declines of heaven and man",
In a thousand worlds, there is a story about Emperor Shakti in the Dhammapada Sutra. When Emperor Shakti was dying, he knew that he was about to fall into the world and be conceived as a donkey raised by a potter's family.
. Just when his body was gradually showing symptoms of the five major declines and he was worried, fortunately, he remembered in time that the Buddha was the only savior in the three realms who could relieve people from suffering, so he hurried to the Buddha to seek Dharma. When he was wholeheartedly converting to the Dharma of Buddhism,
At that moment, I found that I was in the belly of the potter's donkey in an instant. Fortunately, the donkey suddenly broke away from the rope and ran around for some reason, destroying many pottery works completed by the owner. The owner beat him in anger.
After eating a donkey and injuring the fetus in its belly, Sakyamuni escaped. Feeling grateful for the power of the Buddha, Sakyamuni not only realized the meaning of impermanence, but also devoted himself to the path of liberation and became a lover of Buddhist teachings.
, the protector of Buddhism
Since ancient times, the greatest wish of mankind is to live forever and never die, so there have been immortal cultivators, demon cultivators, Buddhist cultivators, etc., who ultimately achieve the goal of immortality through various practices. However, after cultivating immortals, demons, and Buddhas through heavenly tribulations,
Although they can live forever, they cannot live without death. Immortality is an act against heaven. God will punish them by sending down the "Five Decline of Heaven and Man", which will cause them to vanish into ashes, destroy their souls, and disappear between heaven and earth.
Of course, in order to avoid the five degenerations of gods and humans, whether they are immortals in the immortal world, Buddhas in the Buddhist world or demons in the demon world, they can enter reincarnation and start over again before the disaster comes, but that is also a method that treats the symptoms rather than the root cause, so this
The five declines of gods and humans can be said to be the greatest calamity in the three realms of immortals, demons and Buddhas. I am afraid that only the leaders of a few realms know about it. Such calamities for gods and humans will be catastrophic in advance during war periods. This is a number of heaven and cannot be changed by human power."
"Isn't there a solution?" Immortal Wuyou believed that he was invincible, but he was frightened by such secret information and asked quickly.
Tianxin sighed and said, "This is also the reason why the emperors of the past dynasties let their descendants fight. One is to enhance everyone's fighting spirit, let everyone practice hard, and arouse the vitality of the immortal world. On the other hand, I hope everyone can achieve Taoism and cross the gods as soon as possible."
Naturally, there will no longer be a saying about the five declines of heaven and man at that time. Otherwise, even if you achieve the realm of Immortal King, if there is no progress in the future, it will be a matter of time before you enter reincarnation. Perhaps the Buddhist cultivator of Ji Ji is more open-minded about this, and
Only Buddhism has certain control over the five declines of Tianren."
You can imagine the shock in everyone's hearts at this moment. Unexpectedly, immortals will also have the end of their lives. Everyone who originally expected to live forever discovered that many things cannot be solved by themselves. Princess Zhilan and Qinghou
The woman was also a little frightened, and she couldn't help but be a little frightened.
"Ms. sir, what should we do? A great chaos is about to break out. Doesn't that mean that the five degenerations of heaven and man are also coming? If you are not careful, you will be robbed. What about our son?" Princess Zhilan exclaimed.
The Queen also hurriedly asked, "Xian son-in-law, you just said that the Buddha has great power, do you want to ask Buddhism for help?"
Everyone also looked at Tianxin with expectant faces, hoping to hear the miracle again.
"Don't worry, although it may be too difficult for others, it is not that serious for me, but my current strength is not enough. In addition, although the Buddha has great magic power, he has enough restraint on this calamity.
But I am not invincible. I just cultivate the spirit of Buddhism, and I, the Immortal and Demon Realm, cultivate the dual cultivation of life and life. Because I have a body, I will suffer more serious tribulations. The Tao I teach has the wonder of conquering the creation of heaven and earth.
If you don't mind in the future, you can practice more, and naturally you can make great progress in your cultivation, thereby mitigating the coming of this disaster. In the future, when my cultivation is high, I will publicly lecture on the Great Way of the Six Realms, which will serve as the guide for all realms in the universe.
We can use the time to reduce the power of the disaster. Although we are not sure, there is half a hope." Tianxin quickly comforted her.
When everyone heard it, it turned out that it was not a complete dead end. Although fighting within a time limit to improve strength was a way, it was too difficult. After all, it became more difficult to go up. But if Tianxin preaches often in the future and his Taoism and realm improve, then
Cultivation is naturally a matter of course sooner or later. It will not be difficult to avoid the five degenerations of heaven and man in the future.
"Sir-in-law, you just said that you will preach to the six realms publicly in the future. Why?" Qingdi asked in confusion.
Tian Xin respectfully said, "My father-in-law didn't know. He said it was for the Six Realms, but in fact it was only for the Five Realms. After all, I have to ascend to the God Realm in the future. As for the other Five Realms, it is also embarrassing for the Demon Realm.
However, in the teachings of our religion, all living beings are equal. As long as they do not do things that make gods angry, we can all forgive them. Therefore, it is inevitable for them to listen to the sermons in the future. Of course, if they can receive some harsh treatment in the future,
Enlightenment and reducing some of the demonic nature are also meritorious."
Everyone seemed to understand and nodded. Although Qingdi was not famous, he still nodded. After all, although he is his father-in-law, he is still the leader of a religion. With his qualifications, talents, and knowledge, his achievements in the future are limitless.
.Although I am an emperor now, after I ascend in the future, I will have to start all over again in the God Realm. How will I be arrogant at that time? Relying on the emperors of all generations? Just kidding, let’s not talk about whether they have enough power in the God Realm.
Even if there were, would they bother themselves because they had just ascended? Why not take a gamble? Who knows, they would be able to achieve higher righteousness faster in the future. With the decision in his heart, he and Tianxin
After chatting for a while, they dismissed everyone and asked Zhilan to take Tianxin to rest. Although the two were not married yet, they even had sons. Naturally, Qingdi didn't mind them living together, which was just right for Tianxin.
