Taiping Inn

If there had not been Su Yun's invitation, Nan Kezi would have been like other Donghua Sect elders, paying less attention to worldly affairs, concentrating on cultivation, and focusing on alchemy, and he would have been destined to be unknown in this life. In the eyes of the people in the martial arts world, like Madam Lu, they are not good at fighting with others, or in other words, they are not good at fighting.

Because of this, when the Qingyang Sect was rampant in Qizhou, they did not take the Donghua Sect seriously. What really made them afraid was the Qingwei Sect, which was not in Qizhou but regarded Qizhou as its private backyard.

Because of the Qingwei Sect, the Donghua Sect was not affected by the Qingyang Sect's chaos, and it was still detached from the world and became a mountain man with a fairy-like style.

Not long ago, a very distinguished guest came to Danxia Peak. After reporting his name, the receptionist at the mountain gate did not dare to be negligent and hurried to report it. After Nan Kezi learned about it, he had to leave the alchemy room and go out to greet him in person.

Although Danxia Peak does not accept outsiders' visits, there is no absolute. Some people can still make exceptions, such as invited guests, or old friends of an elder on Danxia Peak, and people from Qingwei Sect. After all, Donghua Sect is now under the protection of Qingwei Sect, and Qingwei Sect was the leader of the four-six dispute, so Qingwei Sect can be outside the rules.

Of course, not just any Qingwei Sect disciple can have such a special experience. The seventy-two island masters are definitely not, and most of the thirty-six hall masters are also difficult. They must be direct disciples of Qingwei Sect.

After climbing the mountain, these two direct disciples of Qingwei Sect did not do anything or say anything, but just wandered around Danxia Peak, as if they were here to enjoy the scenery.

The eight halls of Danxia Palace are named just like the Danxia Palace, which is very simple and clear. For example, the three main halls are dedicated to the Taoist ancestor, the Sanqing Hall, and the Yaowang Hall. The five side halls are dedicated to the five ancestors. The Emperor of Donghua is also called Shaoyang, so the five halls are: Shaoyang Hall, Zhengyang Hall, Chunyang Hall, Haichan Hall, Chongyang Hall. Later, the founder of Donghua Sect renamed Haichan Hall to Ziyang Hall, so these five halls are also called "Wuyang Hall".

There is a wide white jade square outside the Wuyang Hall. A young man is walking in it. He is wearing a dark black robe, with a black jade hairpin on his head, wearing cloud shoes, with a gentle face. When he walks, his sleeves flutter, not stained with dust, with an immortal style that does not match his age.

The young man walked to the outside of the Chunyang Hall, the head of the Five Yang Halls, and looked inside. He could vaguely see the magnificent statue of Emperor Donghua in the hall. The statue was several feet tall. He was not dressed as a Taoist priest, but wore an imperial crown and imperial robes. His left palm was on top, his right palm was on the bottom, and the palms of his two palms were facing each other in the air.

In Buddhism, there are three vertical Buddhas, which symbolize the ancient Buddha Dipankara in the past, the Buddha Sakyamuni in the present, and the Buddha Donglai in the future. There are also three horizontal Buddhas, the Medicine King Buddha in the Eastern Pure Lapis Lazuli World, the Buddha Sakyamuni in the Central Possa World, and the Guide Buddha in the Western Paradise. These are the five Buddhas.

Taoism has the theory of the Three Pure Ones and the Four Imperial Gods. Because the Great Pure One Daode Tianzun is the incarnation of the Great Supreme Daozu, there is also the theory of the "Six Imperial Gods", which are: the Jade Emperor who rules the heavens, the Gou Chen Shanggong Emperor who rules the gods, the Beiji Ziwei Emperor who rules the stars, the Dongji Qinghua Emperor who rules the spirits, the Nanji Changsheng Emperor who rules the creatures, and the Hou Tu Huangdi who rules the earth. The Six Imperial Gods correspond to the six directions, namely, up, down, east, west, south, and north. Therefore, people often say that the emperor is above and Hou Tu is below.

The Dongji Qinghua Emperor is the Emperor of Donghua, also known as the Lord of the East and the Emperor of the East.

The young man looked at the statue of the Emperor of Donghua, then looked at the plaque above the temple door, and chanted softly: "The day of the Nine-Nine Dao to the True Day, the Three Pure Ones and the Four Imperial Gods Facing the Heaven."

Then he laughed at himself.

In addition to the myths and legends of Taoism, there are many other legends. It is said that there was an ancient god who once ruled the heavens, named Donghuang Taiyi.

His surname was Li, his name was Taiyi, and his courtesy name was Donghuang.

This courtesy name was not given to him by his master, but by himself.

His senior brother was only Xuandu Zifu, but he wanted to surpass the heavens and become a person who had never been seen before and will never be seen again.

This is not because he does not know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, but it is the fact.

If a disciple of a small sect or a wanderer dared to say such words, he would definitely be crazy, but he is different. He has been standing on the top of the mountain since he started learning martial arts. Whether it is his own vision or the cultivation realm of his master and fellow disciples, they are all top in the world. He can say such words because he thinks that others are not as good as himself.

This is conceited and arrogant.

In the Wuyang Hall, the older Donghua Sect Taoists kept their distance from the young man and did not want to provoke him. Only some young disciples who were half grown gathered together and talked about irrelevant things. It was inevitable that they mentioned this foreign guest. It was said that there was also a woman who came with the young man. However, after the woman settled in a side hall, she rarely went out. Occasionally, she appeared in the sight of everyone, and she also went to the cliff at the back of Danxia Peak, apparently to practice swordsmanship.

Not long after, a woman came from another direction.

The young man pulled the corner of his mouth, not trying to hide his contempt and disdain.

The woman took the initiative to say: "What do you want to do by bringing me here?"

The young man answered irrelevantly: "How long has it been since Senior Sister dealt with the affairs of Qingluan Guard?"

The woman frowned.

The young man asked again: "Then Senior Sister, do you know where the fourth senior brother is now?"

The woman remained silent.

The young man asked: "Not long ago, Senior Brother 3 fought with 'Blood Blade' Ning Yi. Although neither side tried their best, so there was no winner, but Senior Sister would know the reason, right?"

The woman seemed to be annoyed by such irrelevant questions, and her tone became colder: "What do you want to say?"

The young man sighed softly: "It seems that I don't know. I didn't expect that Senior Sister really focused on practicing swordsmanship and didn't care about anything else. What's the difference between her and those scholars who study hard?"

The woman sneered: "I can't compare with you geniuses and prodigies. You can only do one thing with one mind and can't divide your mind."

The young man was calm He said calmly, "It is important for people to know themselves."

The woman's smile became colder, and she said, "It's nothing to be complacent and arrogant, but you must not fall. As long as you fall, your arrogance today will double back in the future. The lesson of the fourth brother is not far away. The predecessors had no time to mourn themselves, but the later generations mourned them. If the later generations mourned but did not learn from them, they would also make the later generations mourn again."

The young man ignored the woman, but looked at the Emperor Donghua in the Chunyang Palace again, and sighed softly, "Taiyi Donghuang, Donghuang Taiyi."

Then the young man turned around and said, "One is that people with different paths cannot work together, and the other is that rotten wood cannot be carved."
