Chapter 175: The Immortal World Chapter 28(1/2)
As mentioned last time, Tianxin was chatting with Sima Yu and his wife about various accidents in the past, when suddenly a familiar voice came. It turned out that Sima Tianyang and the other four brothers had arrived. After being polite, he let them into the house.
Social events will happen later, so please continue to pay attention.
After everyone entered the room, they sat down and a servant served tea. After being polite, Sima Tianyue asked, "My dear nephew, have you been okay during these hundred years?"
"Thanks to you, my nephew is fine." Tianxin said with a smile.
"Hey, when Yu'er came back with a little letter, we were very happy when we learned that Yu'er actually won the first prize. We also thought about thanking you properly after coming back. But we didn't expect that behind a good thing, there are actually
Such a twists and turns." Sima Tianyue said with emotion.
Sima Tianyang put down the tea cup and sighed, "Yes, nephew, although you are kind-hearted and worry about hurting us, but have you ever thought that by doing this, you will make us feel even more guilty.
Although we can't afford to offend Baidi Palace, he still doesn't dare to touch us easily. After all, this is the domain of the Immortal Emperor."
"Uncle, you are too worried. Tianxin does not mean to look down on the Sima family. However, this is all because of the nephew. If the nephew brings trouble to the Sima family, the nephew will really feel uneasy.
Yeah, there's no need to offend an emperor just for the sake of my nephew, an outsider." Tian Xin said
"Nonsense, what kind of outsider? Tianxin, you are also an elder of our Sima family. When we decided to give you the token, you were already a member of our Sima family. Although you have a different surname, you are no better than any other disciple in the sect.
Isn't that right? Are you saying this now to chill us?" Sima Tianyun suddenly said angrily, Sima Tianyang, Sima Tianyue and Sima Tianxing were also a little displeased.
Looking at their expressions, Tianxin knew that this was just superficial, but he couldn't help but feel a little moved. Regardless of whether their words were true or false, at least they made you feel comfortable. At the same time, Tianxin also beat a drum in his heart. Maybe they really came from the heart. Hey, he
Whether in the previous life or in the world of immortals and mortals in my own world, I have seen so many people cheating on me that it is difficult to trust others. Seeing the four Sima elders like this now, although Tianxin still cannot help but be suspicious,
Seeing them like this, he quickly apologized and said to the Fourth Elder, "Uncle, please wait a moment to get angry. My nephew really has his own ideas. After all, the person my nephew offended this time is not an ordinary person, but the prince of the First Palace."
Secondly, my nephew heard that the White Emperor was very protective of his shortcomings. Since he offended his son, it was undoubtedly equivalent to offending an emperor, not to mention that Jin Tianlin is still the heir of the next emperor. If the nephew is alone, he can fight if he can, but if he cannot.
It is still possible to run away. However, the Sima family is a force after all and cannot move casually. Although they do not dare to openly deal with the Sima family for the sake of the Immortal Emperor, it is still possible to secretly suppress their own industry.
Such losses are naturally considerable. How could the Sima family, a long-established family that has existed for thousands of years, decline because of a young nephew?
Furthermore, my nephew is also very concerned about face, so it’s really..." What Tian Xin said was clear and reasonable, which made the fourth elder's unhappy face gradually improve, and he even felt moved.
.Until later, Sima Tianyue sighed and said:
"Hey, nephew, stop talking. We understand what you are thinking. However, I just want you to remember that since you became the elder of our family, you are a member of our family. We will protect you no matter what.
Yes, as you once said, there are things to do and things not to do. Now that we have decided, we will not regret it."
There was a pause at this point, and then he continued, "Maybe you are doubting our sincerity. Yes, to be honest, when I tried my best to keep you in my Sima family, I did value your talents and Taoist powers, but
As time goes by, your contribution to our Sima family to your final gift, etc., made me feel guilty. While reviewing myself, I decided to accept you from the bottom of my heart.
Later, after Yu'er came back and told about you, I sent a large number of subordinates to look for you, but after more than thirty years of searching, there was still no news. Fortunately, it was confirmed that you had not been caught, which made us feel more at ease, but we did not expect that
, this separation lasts for a hundred years. Although for those who cultivate immortality, a hundred years is not long, but for those of us who do not only care about cultivation, it is still a long enough time. Fortunately, I see you again today.
Yes, it makes us old guys feel better."
"Uncle, you are worrying too much. If Tian Xin really had second thoughts, he would not have stayed in Sima's house for so long, nor would he have a true friendship with Brother Yu, nor would he accept the elder's order, nor would he do anything for a passerby.
You should all understand these uncles about teaching martial arts to your nephew.
Moreover, although Tianxin just said that she is an outsider, in fact, Tianxin has already regarded herself as one of her own. Because of this, she does not want the Sima family to suffer losses. It is really not worth it for one person." Tianxin said emotionally.
To the four elders, the four elders nodded clearly to express their understanding. Sima Tianxing even patted Tianxin on the shoulder without saying a word, but the scene at this moment really echoed that sentence, and silence was better than sound at this time.
Sima Yu and his wife didn't say anything from beginning to end. After all, they couldn't talk at this moment. Although they and Tianxin were considered brothers, they also understood at this moment that Tianxin was equal to them in the hearts of the four old guys. Even so,
But the couple was also moved by the five people's emotional words.
…
"By the way, nephew, where have you been in the past hundred years?" Sima Tianyang asked, breaking the calm.
Tianxin put down the cup and sighed, "I said goodbye to Brother Yu that day, and then I started..." Tianxin unhurriedly said what he said to Sima Yu again, and the four elders were also moved by the plot.
It went up and down a few times.
"Unexpectedly, the immortal nephew is a blessing in disguise." Sima Tianyun nodded, and the other three elders also nodded in agreement.
Immediately, Tianxin and others began to reminisce about old times. After dinner, Tianxin came to the refining palace room of the Fourth Elder and signaled the Fourth Elder to leave the servants and put up a ban order.
The four elders were very confused as to why Tian Xin came here. Such a solemn attitude was not at all like Tian Xin who was usually steady. However, they were confused, so they followed suit, and then they all looked at Tian Xin.
"Uncle, you also understand that there are undercurrents surging now, and the wars in the immortal world are approaching again. The Duanmu family's martial arts competition to recruit a bride a hundred years ago is the beginning. All the forces and sects are uniting their own forces, hoping that in the war,
Sometimes we have more ability to protect ourselves. Although on the surface it is a peaceful event, only we know what the situation is like. This is the calm before the storm." Seeing that they were ready, Tianxin spoke first.
road
The fourth elder was shocked. He didn't expect that the other party knew this. After all, with Tianxin Daluo Jinxian's strength, it was generally impossible for them to know these secrets at their age. Although they knew some rumors, they couldn't be thorough. He calmed down his shock.
After the four of them looked at each other, Sima Tianyang, as the eldest brother, first asked, "Xiannephew, what do you mean? How do you know about the chaos in the fairy world?"
Tianxin looked at the four of them, and then said, "My nephew doesn't know much about it. He may also know more than you guys know."
"How do you say this?" Sima Tianyue asked hurriedly.
After Tianxin hesitated for a moment, he took a breath, and then asked, "Several uncles know that every tens of thousands to one hundred thousand years, there will be a war in the immortal world in order to expand their territory.
It’s just a matter of which emperor started the war first. However, without exception, every war results in countless casualties, or it can be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that all lives are devastated. I wonder if my nephew is right?"
Sima Tianyang nodded and said, "Yes, nephew, you said you know more than us. Could it be that there are some secrets?"
"Not bad." After saying that, Tianxin stood up, walked a few steps, and sighed, "It can be regarded as a coincidence. In the past hundred years, I have been trapped in the stone formation. One is to practice, and the other is to explore everywhere, hoping to find a way out.
.But the way out was not found, but a jade slip was found, which contained records from ancient books left by an ancient hermit monk before his ascension. Although there were no skills, it also revealed some secrets.
I told some of the reasons for this battle that have been inherited since ancient times, and combined it with my nephew's own innate divine calculation method, I finally came to a conclusion and did some research on this secret." After saying this, Tianxin paused for a moment.
, seeing the four people looking at him, he calmed down and said, "The reason why the four emperors would launch a war every once in a while is to expand their territory, and on the other hand, it would trigger a war every time a certain period of time.
The disasters faced by gods and humans in the three realms of immortals, Buddhas and demons - the five declines of gods and humans."
"Five declines of heavenly beings? What is that?" Sima Tianyun asked curiously. Although he was the only one who made the noise, the other three elders were also curious about the baby and looked at Tianxin.
"As we all know, those of us who are cultivators, whether they are cultivating immortals, Buddhas or demons, are aiming for immortality, eternal life, strong power and ascension to the divine realm. We all think that after ascending to the three realms of immortals, Buddhas and demons, we can merge with heaven and earth.
They have the same lifespan and the same brightness as the sun and the moon. As everyone knows, except for the gods and the underworld, the heavenly beings in the other three realms all have lifespans. The difference is that their lifespans are longer than those of mortals in the lower realms. In their limited lives,
If everyone does not survive the divine tribulation and ascend to the divine realm, they may encounter various catastrophes, and the five declines of heaven and humans are the most severe among them.
The so-called five declines of gods and humans refer to various phenomena that occur when the life span of gods and humans is about to expire. There are two types of five declines: the big five?? decline and the small five decline. The big five declines: 1. Clothes are dirty. Originally, the clothes of gods were smooth and clean.
They are graceful, but when they die, dirt will begin to grow. 2. The flowers on their heads will wither. The gods always wear bright crowns 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, the armpits will begin to sweat. 4. The body is stinky. The fragrant and clean body no longer smells bad, but it emits an unpleasant smell.
5. Not happy in this position. Originally, the gods lived the most peaceful life, but at the end of their lives, they were not satisfied with this position, and even felt tired and impatient.
Small five decline: 1. The graceful heavenly music no longer rises. Generally, drums will automatically sound wherever heavenly beings pass by, playing graceful heavenly music. However, when the lifespan of heavenly beings is about to end, the graceful heavenly music will no longer sound when heavenly beings walk by.
Joy will no longer rise.
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 heaven and earth are the ultimate sorrow?? Also because heaven and earth live their daily lives
An extremely hedonic life, the average life span is extremely long. Taking the shortest Four Heavenly Kings as an example, taking fifty years as one day and night in the human world, it is estimated that one can live 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 are faced with the realm of the five declines of heaven and human beings, they rarely become aroused.
Therefore, among the six paths (the place of reincarnation in the underworld), the path of heaven has only happiness and no suffering, but there is no suffering after the happiness is exhausted. It is difficult for practicing gods to
Compared with those in the human realm, those who endure have both suffering and happiness, and they also have the causes and conditions to practice and help the path. In the long run, the sentient beings in the heavenly realm will have their misfortune.
When the gods and humans are in the fifth decline, the situation in the Buddhist world is better, but a large number of Buddhists choose to die and suffer less losses. As for the demon world, there are wars all year round, and they are fighting before the five declines of the gods and humans come.
Even if you die, those who survive are basically those with great supernatural powers, who are only one step away from ascension, so they are not afraid.
Only the immortals in the immortal world who had been at ease all year round did not want to make progress and perished in large numbers during the five declines of heaven and man. However, there was no trace of them. Later, several emperors in ancient times came up with a plan to stop killing with killing. This cruel method improved the immortals.
Enter the heart, the Tao heart, to avoid the five declines of heaven and man. At the same time, every time during this period, it can be called a group of immortals committing murderous calamities. Only by transferring one's own killing karma during killing can one escape from heaven and man.
Five declines.”
"Ah? My dear nephew, are all these things you said true?" Sima Tianxing asked hurriedly.
Tianxin nodded, and then said, "Really, more real than pearls."
"Then why haven't you heard of the rumor about the decline of the five heavenly beings before?" Sima Tianyue asked her doubts.
"That's because the first few emperors were afraid that speaking out would cause panic among the immortals in the immortal world. However, with the development of the subsequent generations of emperors, they gradually became dominated by expanding their power. I'm afraid that the statement that the five emperors were in decline will not even be heard by them.
I don’t believe it myself, so how can the people below know?” Tianxin explained patiently.
"Then what should we do?" Sima Tianyun asked
"Ahem, why are you thinking so much? We are one of the five major families. The wars over the years will not affect us. It should be nothing." Sima Tianxing suddenly comforted
Seeing the two brothers Sima Tianyang and Tianyue also nodding, Tianxin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not. This catastrophe is different from the previous ones. The results are so great that they are rare in the world. My nephew learned through the innate calculations that this time can be said to be the real one."
