Chapter 100 Hongjun's Second Lecture
Heng Ming asked: "Where is this Zhou Tian Xing Dou Tu? If Daoist Dou Mu is willing to tell me, I will do my best to help even if it means breaking off a war with the demon clan!"
Dou Mu Yuanjun shook her head and said with a wry smile: "I know and don't know this Zhou Tian Xing Dou Tu, because it is everywhere and has never existed. It exists in the boundless starry sky, but has never appeared in the world. I just accidentally saw a phantom. It is on Ziwei Star, or more accurately, on Ziwei Star in the future."
After hearing this, Heng Ming narrowed his eyes slightly. An inexplicable disaster spread around him. Earth, water, fire, wind, demons, immortals, and everything else appeared. The momentum was so great that even Dou Mu Yuanjun was frightened.
Heng Ming said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Dou Mu, you are trying to trick me into fighting with the Ziwei Emperor, so that you can benefit in the end? If the Zhoutian Xingdoutu is really on Ziwei Star, the Ziwei Emperor is the master of Ziwei Star, born with the emperor's character, the emperor among emperors, the emperor among emperors, how could he not find it."
Fortunately, Hengming remained rational. Although he was secretly annoyed that Dou Mu Yuanjun treated him as a fool, the power of fate still surrounded them to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping.
Dou Mu Yuanjun said hurriedly: "How dare I deceive fellow Daoist Heng Ming? Daoist fellow has already achieved the Golden Immortal of Great Luo, so he naturally knows that there are many great gods in the prehistoric world, and the great ways are complicated. There is also the Buzhou Divine Mountain that suppresses everything, even the fate of time and space. No god can change the traces of the past and the future. After all, the way of heaven is not made of stone and can be changed by others. Therefore, Emperor Ziwei does not know that the Zhoutian Xingdoutu is on Ziwei Star."
After hearing this, Heng Ming put aside his doubts. What Dou Mu Yuanjun said was right. If they were in an ordinary world, the Daluo Jinxian could indeed change everything in this world at will. Even the past and the future could not escape the control of Daluo.
No matter how powerful the world's power is, in order to maintain the survival of the world itself, this power cannot explode without any room for maneuver, and at most only a tiny bit can be used.
How could it be possible to stop the Golden Immortal with just these powers?
But the situation is different in the prehistoric world. Not to mention how many Daluo Jinxians can be born in the prehistoric world, just the Buzhou Mountain is enough to make time and space calm. Let alone the Daluo Jinxian, even the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian cannot change the past at all, nor can they decide any future.
One can only work hard like Hengming, gradually making plans under numerous difficulties, hoping to move forward in the direction designated by oneself in the future.
The primeval world was created by Pangu at the cost of his life, and its essence is extremely noble. Even if most of the power of Heaven is used to maintain the primeval world, the Golden Immortal of Daluo can do nothing about the primeval world, so what Dou Mu Yuanjun said is right.
But Hengming still had a doubt, and asked, "Why do you know that there is a Zhoutian Xingdoutu on Ziwei Star, but Emperor Ziwei doesn't know?"
Dou Mu Yuanjun smiled bitterly: "It's not that the Ziwei Emperor didn't know, but I used a trick to confuse him and made him think that the Zhoutian Xingdoutu had been taken away by Di Jun Taiyi."
After Dou Mu Yuanjun explained, Heng Ming finally understood why she had kept the truth about Ziwei Emperor secret.
The status of the Lord of the Boundless Starry Sky is a treasure that any Star Lord desires to obtain, but there are very few Star Lords who are qualified to obtain this status, and there are not even as many as two hands can count.
Di Jun, Tai Yi, Wang Shu, Chang Xi and Xihe, the five supreme star gods born from Pangu's eyes, are naturally qualified. Apart from these five star gods, the only star gods qualified to obtain the position of Lord of the Starry Sky are Dou Mu Yuan Jun and Ziwei Emperor.
There is no need to say much about Emperor Ziwei. The Ziwei star was transformed from Pangu's Niwan Palace, which is the so-called sea of consciousness. It is naturally of noble status and is not weaker than the Moon and the Sun. It's just that Emperor Ziwei is weak and alone, so he is barely ranked below these people.
Dou Mu Yuanjun is not weak either. She is the original motherhood between heaven and earth mixed with the starlight of countless stars. She has the responsibility of nurturing countless stars and is qualified to be the master of the starry sky.
In addition to the seven of them, there are also some powerful star gods born from the ancient stars, but as long as the seven of them are alive, these star gods have no possibility of seizing the position of Lord of the Starry Sky.
Dou Mu Yuanjun comprehended the secret of heaven one day, and suddenly realized the connection between the Lord of the Starry Sky and Ziwei Star. Because she and Ziwei Emperor supported each other, she was able to practice on Ziwei Star frequently.
She finally decided to use some means to confuse the Ziwei Emperor. She used the Zhoutian Star Divine Fruit as a lure and made the Ziwei Emperor mistakenly believe that the Zhoutian Star Map had been obtained by Dijun Taiyi. As a result, he became uneasy and did not realize that at some point in the future, the Zhoutian Star Map would be born on Ziwei Star.
Hengming turned these things over in his mind, and suddenly said with a smile: "Even if Dou Mu Daoyou told me where the Zhoutian Xingdoutu is, Ziwei Star is Ziwei Star. If you want to go to Ziwei Star to look for treasure, do you really think that Ziwei Emperor is dead? I'm afraid you will regret that you have been working hard for others for many years, and you have spent so much effort to plan, but it has only increased the foundation of Ziwei Emperor."
Dou Mu Yuanjun gritted her teeth, secretly hating Heng Ming's big appetite, but she was helpless now that she was under someone else's control. Without Heng Ming's help, she would sooner or later be beaten to death in the boundless starry sky.
Dou Mu Yuanjun finally revealed a big secret: "If you completely refine the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree, you can also achieve the status of the Lord of the Starry Sky. The Zhoutian Star Map is originally the guardian of the Lord of the Starry Sky. If Taoist Hengming achieves the status of the Lord of the Starry Sky, the Zhoutian Star Map will spontaneously arrive from the future to the present, and its effectiveness is comparable to that of a companion spiritual treasure."
"If Daoist Fellow Hengming helps me to leave the boundless starry sky safely and reach the four seas without any harm, I will give Daoist Fellow the Zhoutian Star Divine Fruit to Daoist Fellow, and Daoist Fellow can use it to obtain the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree."
After saying this, Dou Mu Yuan Jun closed her mouth. Her meaning was very clear. She had already shown her sincerity, and it was impossible to ask her to say more.
After knowing this, Heng Ming smiled with satisfaction, and finally said, "Fellow Daoist Dou Mu is very sincere. Don't worry, after the saint preaches, I will personally take you to the four seas. I was born overseas, and I know one or two secret blessed places where you can practice and live."
Dou Mu Yuanjun forced a smile and said, "Don't worry about where to live, Brother Heng Ming. I once lived temporarily on the West Sea for a period of time. There is a cave there, which is relatively safe. I can live there."
Hengming smiled and didn't take the news to heart, because it couldn't be true, or it could be true and false.
Dou Mu Yuanjun arrived at the Four Seas to avoid disaster, so how could she tell him her hiding place? This statement was both true and false, so I decided not to delve into it any further.
Anyway, Dou Mu Yuanjun is extremely poor. If you kill her by force, you will gain nothing except being injured and being attacked by her before she dies. It is better to quit while you are ahead.
Dou Mu Yuanjun watched Heng Ming return to the cushion and sighed in her heart. She didn't know whether what she had done was good or bad, but the sudden departure of Ziwei Emperor really caught her off guard. Even the saint didn't come to preach, so she had to cut her flesh to ensure her safety.
Hengming returned to the futon. Tongtian beside him asked curiously, "What did Daoist Hengming say to Dou Mu Yuanjun? Your expressions seemed very solemn."
Nuwa was also somewhat curious and said, "Although Dou Mu Yuanjun is mysterious, I know some of her secrets from Fuxi. It is said that she is a primitive maternal instinct in the prehistoric world. At that time, all the stars had just appeared and burst into starlight. This maternal instinct was born mixed with the starlight of all the stars. She is the natural mother of all stars and has the qualifications to reach the position of the Lord of the Starry Sky. Those Taiyin and Taiyang Star Gods are very wary of her."
Hengming did not hide anything from the two of them and told them everything that Dou Mu Yuanjun had asked him to do. After all, Tongtian only loved swords, and Nuwa had no good feelings towards Di Jun and Tai Yi. They were both tight-lipped people and would not tell other people's secrets casually.
As expected, Tongtian had no interest in these things, and turned around to continue to close his eyes and comprehend the great Dao, while Nuwa was very interested in this. However, her interest was not in the Zhoutian Xingchen Fruit Tree and the Zhoutian Xingdou Diagram, but in being able to cause trouble for the two emperors of heaven.
Although she is now Queen Nuwa, one of the six emperors of heaven, she only joined heaven for the benefits. Now that she can add to the troubles of the two emperors, she is naturally happy to do it.
Nuwa smiled and said, "This is a coincidence. I just used the excuse that I wanted to comprehend the secrets of Taiyin, so I asked Emperor Jun to give me a token that can go to Taiyin Star. I just took this opportunity to make Taiyin Star explode. When yin and yang are in harmony, the explosion of Taiyin Star will also cause unrest on Sun Star.
The actions of these two supreme stars will surely cause Ziwei Star to explode along with countless other stars. By then, the Qi will be in disarray and no one will be able to track them. Daoist friend, take this opportunity to bring Dou Mu Yuanjun down to the mortal world and head to the four seas to ensure that those Taiyin and Taiyang Star Lords cannot detect them. "
Hengming nodded but didn't say much.
After all, he and Nuwa have a very good relationship, and there is no need for them to express their gratitude to each other with words. When he helps Nuwa in the future, he will naturally be able to repay this favor.
The two discussed some details with each other before calling it quits.
Looking at Hengming and Nuwa having a cheerful conversation, Dong Wanggong, who was sitting in the back, snorted coldly and felt a slight pain in his waist. Although his injuries had long since recovered, he would never forget the humiliation that Hengming brought him.
Next to him sat a goddess wearing a feather crown and covered in colorful clouds. She was none other than the Taoist partner of Dong Wanggong, Queen Mother of the West, and one of the highest controllers in the Immortal Court. Any female immortal in the Immortal Court only worshipped Queen Mother of the West and did not see Dong Wanggong. The opposite was true for male immortals.
Queen Mother of the West whispered, "Even if you are angry with Hengming, don't show it on your face. You must know that this man has known Sanqing, Nuwa, Bixia Yuanjun and others for a long time. He himself is also a rare invincible god in the prehistoric world. He is even better than us. The Immortal Court cannot make an enemy of him. It is not seen that Dijun Taiyi has a great grudge against this man. At this moment, he should smile and express his welcome. Naturally, we should do the same."
How could Dong Wanggong not know this truth, but his hatred with Hengming originated from the very distant past. He failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice, and his luck and blood essence were plundered by Hengming. He had no choice but to bow his head willingly.
The Queen Mother of the West is the incarnation of the most wonderful energy of Xihua, while the King of the East is the incarnation of the most mysterious energy of Donghua. They are destined to be together in heaven, just like the moon and the sun are destined to be husband and wife.
It is for this reason that the Queen Mother of the West would not allow the King of the East to make friends with a powerful enemy, otherwise, if it implicated her, she would really want to cry.
Taoist Xukong had a faint smile on his face. Although he was also one of the giants in the Immortal Court, he did not like to fight for power, so he let the King of the East and the Queen Mother of the West divide the immortals in the Immortal Court, and he himself was happy and free.
Hengming looked back as if he was touched. Dongwanggong's whole body stiffened. Xiwangmu beside him pulled the corner of his clothes. He finally forced a stiff smile. Xiwangmu smiled faintly and nodded slightly. Hengming also smiled slightly and turned around to continue practicing.
Hongyun continued to chat with Zhenyuanzi, while Minghe sat there by himself. Kunpeng had a gloomy look on his face, and from time to time he glanced at the seven people on the cushion in front of him or at Hongyun beside him, thinking constantly about Dijun's proposal.
Countless gods had different expressions, and it was not until Haotian Yaochi arrived that they straightened their faces and took their seats calmly.
Haotian struck the golden bell in his hand and said loudly: "The teacher is about to arrive. Please take your seats and don't make any noise."
Then he and Yao Chi bowed their heads and waited respectfully. After a moment, a figure suddenly sat on the pulpit. It was Hongjun. The Taoists were shocked, and then they immediately stood up and said loudly: "Disciples are waiting for the teacher to preach. May the teacher live a long life and the great way last forever."
Hongjun nodded slightly, motioned for the gods to sit down, and then began to preach.
"Hunyuan means endless perfection, Daluo means detachment and freedom. However, detachment is not detachment, freedom is not freedom, perfection is not perfection, and endless is not endless. If you want to achieve endless perfection, you will be away from detachment and freedom. If you want to achieve detachment and freedom, you will have no chance of perfection..."
Hongjun started talking about the way of Hunyuan as soon as he opened his mouth, and elaborated on the endless mysteries between Hunyuan and Daluo.
The more Heng Ming listened, the more he felt the mystery of Hunyuan, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly. The truth was that there was a huge gap between him and the Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and he had not even reached the late stage of the Daluo Golden Immortal. It was too difficult for him to start listening to the Hunyuan Dao now.
Not only him, the seven people on the cushions all had confused expressions on their faces, not to mention the many great gods behind them, who were basically confused and could only understand one or two sentences of the Hunyuan principles occasionally. However, Hongjun had already started to talk about the later parts of the Hunyuan Dao, which made them scratch their heads and in pain.
The most painful thing in the world is knowing there is a road behind you but not being able to walk into it.
Even the Daluo Golden Immortal was in so much pain, not to mention those Taiyi Golden Immortals. One Taiyi Golden Immortal suddenly began to roar uncontrollably and scratched his body non-stop. After a while, he was covered in blood, which was terrifying.
Hongjun continued to preach, and with just a wave of his sleeves, the Taiyi Golden Immortal was immediately moved outside the Zixiao Palace, and then torn into pieces by the crazy chaos.
Many Taiyi Golden Immortals began to go crazy, but they all ended up being thrown out of Zixiao Palace. Some Taiyi Golden Immortals turned a disaster into a blessing and achieved Daluo, but they dared not listen to the Dao of Hunyuan anymore. They could only close their eyes and practice, relying on the Dao rhyme in Zixiao Palace.
Although the speed of cultivation is still not slow, compared to the first time he preached, when he practiced while listening to Hongjun's teachings, it is like turning from a golden-winged Roc into a crippled turtle, so slow that it is unimaginable.
Just when Heng Ming was struggling, the fragments of the jade disc in his sea of consciousness suddenly emitted a divine light, and actually recorded all the Taoist sounds that he could not understand, allowing him to slowly understand them in the future.
The cushion he was sitting on also began to emit a strange fragrance, which was almost imperceptible, like the fragrance of the Great Dao. Heng Ming took a deep breath and immediately found that his comprehension had increased a thousandfold. He could actually understand most of the Hunyuan Dao that had seemed confusing to him before. The threshold to the late Daluo Jinxian was finally broken at this moment. A majestic aura filled the air, and Lao Tzu also achieved the late Daluo Jinxian at this moment.
Not long after, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian, Nuwa, Zhunti, and Jieyin also broke through the middle stage of their cultivation and achieved the late stage of Daluo Jinxian.
There are too many things to do on the first day of work.
