Chapter 400 Martial Arts and Spells(1/2)
"Why not?" Datou asked curiously.
"Immortals only exist in legends, and no one has actually seen them," he said, raising his hand and pointing south, "The old Celestial Master is very knowledgeable in Taoism, and he has the direct bloodline of the Celestial Master. Even such great masters of Xuanmen can't do it."
Transcending life and death and ranking in the immortal class, how can I clearly see the yin and yang and attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven?"
After saying that, Da Tou wanted to speak, but before Da Tou could speak, he waved his hand and said, "As the saying goes, although the Tao is impermanent, one must have the intention to pursue it. Although I am a member of the Tao sect, I have no intention of cultivating the Tao. Although I have a name, I do not seek it.
"
"Then what do you want?" Datou asked.
He shook his head and said, "I don't need to hide when I talk to you. In fact, I really don't know what I want. Although what we are doing now is to serve the country loyally and to save the world, I have never thought about high-ranking officials, generous salaries, and lasting legacy.
We never thought that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the common people of Li would accept our kindness, let alone do good deeds and accumulate virtue so that we could rise to the top."
Datou was speechless, and Shi Xuanming on the side clasped his hands and answered, "Amitabha, your prince is kind to others but has nothing to ask for. In fact, he is in the realm of Buddha and has the heart of a Bodhisattva." ??
"Oh my, you can pull me down," Big Head curled his lips and waved his hands, "What nonsense are you talking about? The prince is a Taoist priest, and we are not on the same path at all."
"A summer insect cannot speak of the ice, and a well frog cannot speak of the sea." Shi Xuanming glanced at him with disgust.
"The recitation of the sutra is not very good, and it's also docile." Datou mocked.
The two of them have become accustomed to bickering, "Stop talking about me, do you know what you want?"
This question directly stopped the three of them. After looking at each other, Datou was the first to speak, "We don't have to think about this question. We will do whatever you want."
After speaking, Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming nodded in agreement.
"Why do you do whatever I do?" I asked casually.
"You have been kind to us." Datou said.
"I'm serious," he waved his hand and said, "Actually, I'm just like you. There seems to be an invisible big hand pushing me forward. The emperor is kind to me, Longhu Mountain is kind to me, and so is the Ni family.
You have been kind to me, and everything I have done is just to repay you."
Yu Yi opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty is a man destined by fate. He carries a lot of energy and shoulders heavy responsibilities. All kinds of situations are caused by God's will."
As soon as Yu mentioned the destined person, he suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Da Tou, "I promised to help Taiping Taoist overcome the calamity before, but now that I have been promoted to the mountain, I don't know how it is prepared?"
"Taoist Taiping?" Datou suddenly realized after recalling it, "Oh, are you talking about that old turtle spirit in Yezhou?"
"What kind of turtle spirit? Its body is a giant turtle," he corrected. "The reincarnated children of Monk Jianxing are still being raised by it. We can't break our promises. This place is not far from Yezhou. You can take the time to go there."
Go to Yezhou and see how it is doing."
"Okay, I'll go when Yang Kai brings Miss Bai over to me," Datou said and turned to look at Yu Yi, "Master Tai, have you ever been to Yezhou?"
"No." Yu Yi shook his head.
Datou originally wanted to use Yu Yi's Void Xuanmen to save some energy, but when Yu Yi shook his head, he had no choice but to give up.
He casually broke off a branch from nearby and chopped it neatly with the dragon's power. After infusing it with spiritual energy, he handed it to Datou, "This branch contains my spiritual energy. You can bring it to Taiping Taoist.
On the day of the tribulation, let it burn the branches close to the fire. I will sense it and rush to help as soon as possible."
The big head nodded in agreement, took the branch and put it in his arms.
It was early spring, and it was very windy and cold on the top of the mountain. Everyone left the top of the mountain and went to the official road to the east to light a fire to keep warm. At the same time, they also used the smoke to indicate the direction of Yang Kai who was about to come.
I had been to Hanzhong before, and I knew that Zhang Shan was leading the army to attack the city, so I wanted to go to help. However, after thinking about it carefully, I gave up the idea because Zhang Shan was the commander-in-chief of the army. Even if everyone from my own side rushed there, they could not take his place.
, and the old Heavenly Master can leave the body. Daxing must have met Zhang Shan before, and must have explained everything that needs to be explained.
In addition, everyone on our side had just experienced a bloody battle last night. They were all physically and mentally exhausted and should not fight continuously. Moreover, most of the others were stung by poisonous bees and their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. It was really unseemly to go to help in this way.
At Chen Shi, Yang Kai finally arrived, not only bringing everyone's mounts, but also everyone's baggage and luggage.
Yu Yi had walked this road in his early years and knew where the inn was, so he took everyone to the inn to stay, while Da Tou rode Miss Bai into the air and headed south to Ashan County in Yezhou.
Although everyone has spiritual energy cultivation, they are still mortal bodies after all. After checking into the inn, they lay down to rest.
Before leaving last night, I drew a lot of charms and kept them in my arms, but when I faced the enemy, I didn't use any of them. When I was undressing and resting, I took out a lot of them from my arms.
I slept until noon, woke up, got up and packed away the talismans on the table. While spreading them out and sorting them out, I recalled the various spells recorded in Luo Tian's Secret Technique.
Luo Tian's secret method has recorded all the spells in Longhu Mountain. He has already memorized the instructions and mantras of various spells, including the drawings and writings of the spells. However, he had neglected to practice before and was not allowed to use them casually when facing the enemy.
.
At this time, he already had the cultivation level of living in the mountains, as well as the Hunyuan Divine Skill and the self-created close combat, which was more than enough to deal with ordinary opponents, but it was not enough to deal with evil spirits and ghosts.
By recalling the details of last night's battle, I found that sometimes casting spells would be more effective than using martial arts. It does not mean that spells are more powerful than martial arts. In fact, there is no superiority between the two, but they have different uses. If they can complement each other,
When facing the enemy in battle, you will have more chance of winning and be more calm.
There are hundreds of spells recorded in Luotian's secret method. It is not easy to practice them all and use them at will. Since I have been immersed in martial arts before, using the spells this time seems to be a bit different, especially since many powerful spells are not only
You need to pinch your fingers and recite mantras, and you also need to draw spells to take effect. The effect is slow and quite cumbersome.
Everything has its pros and cons. Although spells are cumbersome to cast, they also have their advantages. The biggest feature is that spells can use the two qi of yin and yang. Many domineering spells are extremely powerful. They can move mountains and change the world, which is far beyond the comparison of spiritual energy and martial arts.
However, these overbearing spells are rarely used by Taoists in daily life. First, the Taoist who casts the spells is not of a sufficient level; second, his own spiritual energy cultivation is insufficient; and third, some spells are too powerful, violate Yin and Yang, and are not in accordance with the way of heaven, so they are cast rashly.
At worst, it can backfire on oneself; at worst, it can damage Yang and longevity.
Everything you get comes at a price, and this is particularly evident in the use of spells. The more powerful the spell, the more difficult it is to control, and the price you pay will be greater. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing, and there is no such thing as getting twice the result with half the effort.
, there is no such thing as taking advantage of paying less and getting more. In fact, there is no advantage to be taken advantage of at all in the world. Any taking advantage is accompanied by unknown losses... "Why not?" Datou asked curiously.
"Immortals only exist in legends, and no one has actually seen them," he said, raising his hand and pointing south, "The old Celestial Master is very knowledgeable in Taoism, and he has the direct bloodline of the Celestial Master. Even such great masters of Xuanmen can't do it."

"Then what do you want?" Datou asked.

Datou was speechless, and Shi Xuanming on the side clasped his hands and answered, "Amitabha, your prince is kind to others but has nothing to ask for. He is actually in the realm of Buddha and has the heart of a Bodhisattva."
"Oh my, you can pull me down," Big Head curled his lips and waved his hands, "What nonsense are you talking about? The prince is a Taoist priest, and we are not on the same path at all."
