Chapter 403: Introducing the Dao Foundation-Building Fire Lotus, Passing on the Two Techniques and Becoming a Half-Master

"You are a smart person, but I don't know whether you are very smart or just clever." Gu Qingyuan said with his eyes half closed.

"I don't know either, but I hope my teacher can give me some advice." Wang Yansheng sat opposite Gu Qingyuan.

"I don't know either. It all depends on what you think," Gu Qingyuan shook his head. "Think carefully. Once you take this step, you will be doomed. Even if you want to push back, there will be waves pushing you forward until you reach the other side or are washed away by the waves."

Wang Yansheng bowed and said: "I have made up my mind. Even if I die, my heart will yearn for it. Just like the moral articles you gave me, like the flying fish skimming the sea, I can see the vastness of the world. I also want to soar into the sky and turn Kun into Peng."

But in your line of work, which involves the general trend, there are countless forces forcing you to make various choices.

Gu Qingyuan looked at the young man's resolute face. Various eyes were spying on this small space from all directions. In the eyes of the practitioners with poor cultivation, Gu Qingyuan was a low-level cultivator who had accidentally gained an immortal chance. In the eyes of the powerful, he was also an opponent who had joined the game and was in mutual competition.

But no matter what, both groups have established the identity played by Gu Qingyuan, a role that leads the Son of Destiny into Taoism, makes the young tiger roar in the mountains and forests, and the young scales jump into the rivers and seas.

"I'm afraid you still have the idea of ​​using my death to stimulate the potential of the Child of Destiny and manipulate his behavior in the future."

Gu Qingyuan thought to himself, but he didn't care. It's natural to have this kind of awareness when entering the game. It's all obvious calculations. It depends on who has better gaming skills. If the situation requires, he may be able to do his job as a guide and sacrifice himself before the decisive battle to stimulate the potential of the protagonist.

"Seven years ago, I left behind a method of cultivation, and I allowed you to read it. With your understanding, you must have understood it. Why don't you learn it?"

Wang Yansheng thought for a moment and said, "That method contains countless hidden codes and allusions. I only understand the surface and do not understand the true meaning. I am afraid that it will hinder my practice, so I will abandon it."

"Yes, with your character, you have been able to remain unshakable for seven years. You are worthy of cultivation. I hope you can keep a normal mind in the future. You must know that all practitioners are as smart as ghosts. If you are not careful, you will turn into a residual soul in the calculation. The risk is thousands or even tens of thousands times greater than you imagine."

Gu Qingyuan nodded with satisfaction. In the past ten years, he had been teaching diligently. Those people in the dark mostly used temptation and ghostly techniques to try to distort Wang Yansheng's temperament and influence his ideas subtly in order to seek the welfare of the sect.

After all, this child of destiny is under the pressure of fate, which he can only follow and not go against. However, if one influences his temperament, instills one's own theories in him and makes them consistent with the beliefs of one's own sect, then a relationship of incense and worship can be established in the future. Haven't you seen that it was only after Master Jingshu joined the Zhengyi Sect that the sect prospered for hundreds of years?

As for Gu Qingyuan, he was a troublemaker. During these years, apart from revealing a martial arts book to reveal his identity, all his other studies were about the study of things and the pursuit of knowledge.

Those people in the sect only wanted to lure them with benefits and attract them with emotions, but Gu Qingyuan wanted to teach the true great way to Wang Yansheng.

Arithmetic constructs the logic of thinking, policy essays accumulate experience in dealing with affairs, classics and history determine the spiritual core, classics and history look at the ideas of ancient and modern scholars, and the most important thing is the seemingly insignificant miscellaneous notes.

Gu Qingyuan had stuffed a lot of his own stuff into it. It looked like some ordinary travel notes and common knowledge, but its core was actually all kinds of thoughts and paths. Regardless of whether it was appropriate or not, he classified them as miscellaneous notes. He did not seek precision, but only breadth and everything.

All these things eventually merged into Wang Yansheng's thoughts and became his eyes for understanding and exploring the world. After being taught by Gu Qingyuan, Wang Yansheng would have a heart that would not be influenced by others and would explore everything on his own, rather than being a puppet who blindly follows what others say.

For example, there are always people who will suddenly realize something because of some seemingly correct theories, and exclaim, "So that's how it is! It's so well said, this is how it should be." This is a kind of thinking coverage, and when they come into contact with other theories, they will rush to another ocean of knowledge.

Independent and independent in thinking, Wang Yansheng will draw nourishment from everything to shape his own core, which is what Gu Qingyuan needs.

The existence of the law of cause and effect brings everything together and brings all events in the direction of Heaven's hope. The most basic individual in the law of cause and effect is human. Taking advantage of the situation and the entanglement of all parties, each individual is forced to move towards the final result helplessly.

As the son of destiny, Wang Yansheng is bound to master powerful forces and face influences from all sides. His independent thinking combined with strong power is enough to make countless people's calculations fail, and will also change the law of cause and effect, allowing Gu Qingyuan to capture more data.

Change, only change, drastic change, change that can affect the law of cause and effect is what he really needs, and Tianmingzi, who is the cornerstone and core, is the best pry bar.

Gu Qingyuan's eyes fell on Wang Yansheng, and he waved his sleeves, and a book fell to the ground: "This is the skill I want to teach you, called Dao Gu Sheng Tai Jue, you read it through first, and then I will explain it to you in detail."

Wang Yansheng took the book, lowered his head and read silently, his mind immersed in it. Gu Qingyuan looked at the book titled "The Secret of the Taoist Holy Embryo", which was actually called "The Secret of the Spiritual Heart Demon Embryo", and a soul left his body.

Many eyes were still fixed on Wang Yansheng, and they were unaware that Gu Qingyuan's spirit had left his body. Only a few people took action.

At the west end of the village, an old farmer suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze passed through the obstruction of the roof, nodded slightly towards Gu Qingyuan's soul standing in mid-air, and released a stream of Taoist energy.

In a small house beside a pond in the village, a woman was mending clothes carefully. Suddenly, she stopped and the thin needle emitted a sword energy that broke through the sky.

Under the big willow tree, an old monk bowed to the tiny Buddhist shrine in front of him, and the Buddha's light flickered and rose up.

The last one came to Wang Yansheng’s home. Wang’s father sat up straight, and a majestic imperial aura emerged. The coarse linen clothes he wore looked like a dragon robe, exuding supreme domineering aura as he flew into the distance.

A cold snort resounded through everyone's hearts. The Queen Mother opened her eyes, took off the silver hairpin on her head, and with a wave of her white hand, everyone felt as if a Milky Way was falling. The starlight and the Milky Way shone in everyone's hearts at the same time. Now, no matter whether they were highly skilled or shallow, they were all silent. The chaotic and tangled consciousness in the air was withdrawn one by one, as honest as quails.

Gu Qingyuan smiled slightly. Apart from other things, the father was actually the Supreme Heaven, a Dharmakāya of the Jade Emperor, and the mother was called that, so she was naturally not an ordinary person either. She was the Golden Mother of Yaochi, also known as the Golden Emperor. Although these two were often described as a match made in heaven and earth in folk legends, they actually cultivated themselves and had no connection with each other. The Golden Emperor was one of the few immortals in the world, and was older than the Jade Emperor.

Gu Qingyuan showed up here, naturally he wanted to meet the chess players. Those who were completely unaware of everything were naturally not included. Only those who could join the game and make plans were included. There would not be many of them in total, in addition to those who joined the game personally and those who hid their heads and showed their tails in the dark. As for the others, they were written as subordinates and read as cannon fodder.

"Conspiracies and plots, big and small, come together, my sword will not be at a disadvantage."

He raised his hand and took the water vapor from the Starry Sky River, and also gathered the Taoist energy, sword energy, and Buddha's light. He pinched them together, shook his hand, and threw them into Wang Yansheng's body.

Wang Yansheng was completely unaware of this. Even though he could be considered the number one second-generation immortal in this world based on his current background, he was still just an ordinary person who had not yet entered the Tao.

The inspiration merged into his body and sank deep into his mind. This inspiration was both an opportunity and a cause and effect. If his life was in danger in the future, the inspiration would be released and could turn into a life-saving talisman. However, by accepting this favor, he had already formed a cause and effect relationship with the powerful people, which he had to repay. There were many practitioners in the world who wanted to form a relationship with the powerful people, but they had not encountered the opportunity yet. They could not even find the temple door with a pig's head.

Fortunately, Wang Yansheng is not just an ordinary man, but also the master of destiny. At least as long as his fate is not over and his luck is not bad, he will be able to turn misfortune into good fortune.

After he finished reading the spell, Gu Qingyuan stretched out his hand again, and a ray of spiritual light entered Wang Yansheng's heart: "Concentrate your mind, embrace the origin and keep the unity, visualize the picture in your consciousness, and I will lead you into the Tao!"

Wang Yansheng calmed his mind and visualized the underworld. He saw a picture of a raging golden lotus floating in his consciousness. The single golden lotus was swaying gently in the endless sea of ​​fire, emitting golden clouds, red rainbows, and colorful clouds.

He only felt a great light shining in his heart, and blessings came to his soul. His mind sank into his dantian without any guidance. First there was the sound of waves, and a red aura flowed, merging into a red torrent. Amid the rolling waves, a golden sun rose in the east, and a white moon set in the west. A golden crow danced in the sun, and a jade rabbit ran in the bright moon. A wave came and swallowed the sun and the moon.

A hot breath rushed straight into Wang Yansheng's mind. His lips became cracked, but from the base of his tongue, golden saliva flowed out, bringing a hint of coolness all the way down. The two hot and cold breaths swirled around his heart and finally sank into his dantian.

The breath flowed into the Dantian, causing the Red Sea to surge. The two breaths dispersed and turned into a turtle and a snake, wandering on the seabed and swallowing sea water. When the Red Sea dried up, the turtle and snake were bound together, and the red fire burned the turtle and snake together, gradually burning the entire Dantian. A golden lotus slowly bloomed from the fire.

"The sun hides the Jade Rabbit, the sun hides the Crow, there are turtles and snakes intertwined, intertwined, their lives are strong, yet they can plant golden lotus in the fire. The true meaning of this half of the fire planting golden lotus is enough to serve as the foundation for your entry into the Tao."

Wang Yansheng had no time to pay attention to the voice of his mentor as he heard it in his ears. His whole body was burning hot, and the heat was surging, burning away the turbid air in his body brought by the grains, medicines and drinks. After the turbid air was expelled, he felt as light as a swallow, and his ears and eyes were clear.

He opened his eyes and looked at himself. The calluses left by the busy farm work and the scars caused by mischief had disappeared. There was a fresh air every time he exhaled, but his skin was a little red, and there was a faint fire surging in his body, with heat waves rolling.

"I would like to thank my teacher for his hard work. I beg you to have mercy on me and accept me as your disciple." Wang Yansheng bowed his head to the ground.

"You and I are already master and disciple, and you keep calling me sir. Our friendship is already established, so why should we care about empty reputations?" Seeing what Wang Yansheng was about to say, Gu Qingyuan waved his hand, "I am just a casual cultivator, and you are a rare talent. Naturally, an orthodox sect will come to accept you. You have a bright future, so don't let me delay you."

He was given the status of a guide and also taught, which was the result of bargaining and exchange of interests among all parties. If he accepted him as a disciple, those who were taught the authentic skills would inevitably make trouble and others would have to take some advantage of him.

"I only know the kindness of my teacher in enlightening me and the love I have for him. Even if an immortal sect wants to accept me as a disciple, I will not be willing to do so." Wang Yansheng said stubbornly.

"Nonsense, cultivators have such long lives, they travel through the mortal world, a hundred years pass in a blink of an eye, how can it be that you only have one master? After I die, are you going to stop learning the Dharma, join a major sect, and integrate the wisdom of hundreds of sects, wasting your natural talent in vain?"

Gu Qingyuan persuaded, and seeing that Wang Yansheng was still stiff-necked, he sighed: "Well, you have never seen the changing world, nor do you know how to look up to the mountains. Let's make a ten-year agreement. After ten years, if you remain true to your original aspirations, I will accept you as my apprentice. As for now, I can be half the master."

However, he used the tactic of procrastination. Tianmingzi's temporary good fortune could not last long. When he achieved success, his luck would decline. Ten years later, it was feared that the Daoxing calamity would be over.

Wang Yansheng then agreed and nodded obediently, accepting the title of half-master in his heart. This acceptance involved all things in the world. His own luck appeared faintly above his head, which were a few celebrating fields, like a canopy falling steadily on his head. With the help of Tianmingzi's luck and the title of half-master, the Qingyun canopy divided some of its luck and gave it to Gu Qingyuan. His own luck increased by half out of thin air.

Therefore, the Son of Destiny is a very popular person. His every move is related to the situation of heaven and earth. No matter he is an enemy or a friend, his fate is entangled. What he does is also consuming his own luck. When the luck and auspicious cloud as magnificent as a canopy are exhausted, the catastrophe is over and Taoism will prosper.

So it can be imagined that in the future various sects and schools will send people and treasures. The increase in that person's luck will be paid for by Tianmingzi, and the cause and effect on the magic weapon will also be completed by Tianmingzi consuming his own luck. He is like a delicious dish, and everyone wants to have a piece of it.

Gu Qingyuan used the luck he had obtained for nothing to give to Wu Hong, causing him to run a little faster. He sighed in his heart, thinking that this Son of Destiny was a good person, but he was just a tool of heaven, and a tool that would be thrown away after use.

"Now that you have entered the Dao, I should teach you a few Dao-protecting techniques. The visualization diagram has been integrated into your Dantian. You can look at it by concentrating your mind."

Wang Yansheng nodded and closed his eyes to meditate. An unopened lotus bud was swaying quietly in his dantian. There was no golden light or red clouds, just the appearance of an ordinary white lotus with a green stem.

"You should practice the Holy Spirit Heart Art diligently in the future, and the lotus will bloom in due time, so don't be anxious," Gu Qingyuan said with a smile, "Now that your foundation has been established and you have accumulated a lot of anger, I will first teach you two techniques, one is the Breath Blowing Technique, and the other is the Fire Pushing Technique, which just happen to be suitable for your current situation of surging anger."

He rubbed his hands together, and a little fire lit up at his fingertips. He opened his mouth slightly, and the sound of wind gradually rose, blowing the bean-sized flame, and the fire grew bigger with the help of the wind.

Wang Yansheng was stunned as he watched the bean-sized flame grow twice as big under the wind. However, no matter how big it was, it was only a circle larger than a finger.

That's it, that's it?
