Patriarch Bodhi nodded to the disciples. His gaze lingered on Shen Luo for a while before he spoke.
"Today, I will not talk about the mysteries of heaven and earth. I will not talk about good karma and good fortune. I will talk about the wrong paths and false thoughts in the cultivation of the Yellow Court Scripture so that you won't take any detours in your future cultivation."
When the disciples below the stage heard this, there was a sudden uproar. Many of them had excited expressions on their faces.
Shen Luo and Fu Donglai did not know what was going on. They could not help but ask a disciple beside them.
"You two are new to the inner sect, right? You don't know that the Patriarch rarely talks about specific cultivation methods in the past. He only talks about profound principles. Those with great aptitude will naturally benefit greatly. Us ordinary disciples are often shrouded in fog and don't know what he is talking about. Today, it is rare for the Patriarch to talk about cultivation methods. You have to listen carefully. "The disciple saw that the two of them were unfamiliar and did not care too much. He explained to them.
When Shen Luo heard this, he immediately understood that Patriarch Bodhi's lecture was most likely meant for him.
He took a deep breath and focused his mind, preparing to listen to the profound teachings.
"The Dao of All Creation, the change of Extremity, the law of All Creation, the evolution of the Great Path, has a different name. It is called mystery, mystery within mystery, the door to all mysteries …"
When Patriarch Bodhi's voice rang out, Shen Luo was the first to be stunned.
"Isn't this the general principle of the Yellow Court Scripture?" He thought to himself.
Behind Patriarch Bodhi, Jue Ming and Jue An's expressions changed when they heard this.
The contents of the Yellow Court Scripture had always been something that was not taught to personal disciples. Today, for some unknown reason, Patriarch Subhuti had actually spoken of it in public like this.
However, they quickly let go of their suspicions.
This was because Patriarch Subhuti had only mentioned the first sentence. He did not mention the rest of the general principles.
Most of the Inner Court disciples didn't advance quickly in the matter of cultivating the Yellow Court Scripture, so they naturally didn't have a deep level of understanding towards the entire cultivation method. So when they suddenly heard the contents of this general outline, not the slightest ripple arose in their hearts.
Shen Luo was no stranger to the contents of the Primary Instruction, but at this moment, he did not understand what it meant.
At this moment, Patriarch Subhuti continued, "When you cultivated the Yellow Court Scripture, you only knew how to proceed steadily and steadily. You only knew how to advance layer by layer, yet you failed to comprehend the word 'change' contained within it."
While everyone was still shrouded in fog, Shen Luo's gaze focused.
Naturally, he knew that when the Yellow Court Scripture cultivation method was combined with the complete cultivation of the general principles, one would be able to attain the Seventy-Two Transformations ability. Not only would one be able to transform endlessly, one would also be able to obtain great power.
He had obtained the general principles of the Yellow Court Scripture in the Dream Realm and had comprehended the 72 transformations on his own. However, he had never received guidance from a master, so his understanding of the Yellow Court Scripture's transformations was lacking. Patriarch Subhuti's words had attracted all his attention.
"The key to the so-called transformation lies in the word 'alive'. Those who know the Dao of Transformation know the actions of the gods …" Patriarch Subhuti continued to elaborate on the key points of the Yellow Court Scripture's transformation divine ability. Most of the people below were at a loss.
However, Shen Luo was overjoyed as he listened. He was intoxicated, and his understanding of the 72 transformations deepened.
"What do you think are spirits, devils, immortals, and dharma?" Patriarch Subhuti explained the Dao of Transformation and suddenly changed the topic. His gaze swept across everyone's faces as if he was asking a question.
The disciples present were naturally aware of this point. What they did not understand was why the Patriarch would ask such a question.
"The root of all things does not originate from the Dao. The root of all things is dharma. The transformation of immortals and devils does not deviate from this principle," Patriarch Subhuti continued.
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Luo, who was still immersed in the 72 transformations, suddenly felt his heartstrings being plucked. He raised his head.
Previously, Patriarch Subhuti had already discovered that there was an imbalance between Chi You's demonic aura and pure Yang energy in his body.
His words enlightened Shen Luo. Previously, he had always wanted to maintain a static balance between Chi You's demonic aura and pure Yang energy. However, every time after the Mysterious Yang Devil Transformation, it would cause Chi You's demonic aura to become stronger.
This static balance would be broken sooner or later.
However, if one knew to be static and guarded, using the Yin and Yang energy as a bridge to change the static balance to a dynamic balance, then the side effects of the Mysterious Yang Devil Transformation might be eliminated.
"But how can one push the Yin and Yang energy to circulate and change static to motion?" Shen Luo muttered in his heart.
After all, it was already very difficult to maintain the balance in his body. It was even more difficult to make it circulate freely without losing control.
At this time, Patriarch Subhuti had already changed to the Yellow Court Scripture's Three Stars Demon Vanquishing Divine Ability.
"The sun is the sun, the moon is the moon, and the stars reside in them. They receive the power of Yin and Yang, and similarly possess great power. Using the power of the three stars to suppress demons is, in fact, a fusion of the power of Yin and Yang."
Shen Luo was overjoyed. Patriarch Subhuti was no longer using the preaching of scriptures to enlighten him. He was almost giving him direct guidance.
He subconsciously wanted to circulate his cultivation method and give it a try.
At this time, Patriarch Subhuti's voice suddenly sounded in his heart. "If you hadn't understood it, I wouldn't have spoken. Your scripture is up to here. Go, boldly give it a try."
As his voice fell, Shen Luo felt his body suddenly become light, as if he was being lifted up by a white cloud. His body floated up and then floated down again.
When he came back to his senses, he had already appeared in front of the thatched cottage on top of Mount Fangcun.
"Thank you, senior." Shen Luo thanked him in his heart and bowed in the direction of the plaza. He knew that Patriarch Subhuti would definitely be able to hear him.
Then, he formed a hand seal and simultaneously circulated the Demonic Qi and Pure Yang energy in Chi You's dantian. He circulated the Yellow Court Scripture, and his body immediately began to change …
The people in the plaza didn't notice that Shen Luo's figure had already disappeared. They were all focused on listening to Patriarch Subhuti's preaching, and from time to time, their faces would flash with contemplation.
Only Jueming and Juean, who were standing behind Patriarch Subhuti, sensed a slight change. They subconsciously turned to look at Mount Fangcun before returning to their original state.
The preaching didn't last too long. By the time the moon was high in the sky, the disciples in the plaza had already dispersed.
Fu Dong received a message from Patriarch Subhuti and returned to his room to rest.
Only two figures were left in the plaza, and they hadn't left yet.
"Patriarch Subhuti's sudden preaching today seems a little different from before," Jueming said with a slight frown.
"He's intentionally enlightening that foreign cultivator." Juean smiled as he looked in the direction of the mountain peak. He couldn't see anything clearly due to the veil of clouds.
"Is Patriarch Subhuti thinking of accepting a personal disciple?" Jueming asked in confusion.
"So what if he is, and so what if he isn't?" Juean shook his head and smiled.
…
Early the next morning, Fu Donglai was awakened by a series of hurried knocks on his door. When he opened it, he saw Shen Luo standing outside with a smile on his face.
"Brother Shen, what are you doing so early in the morning?" Fu Donglai asked with a yawn.
He had listened to the preaching very carefully the night before, so much so that he didn't even notice when Shen Luo had disappeared. However, because he had never cultivated the Yellow Court Scripture, he naturally listened with rapt attention.
After returning, he meditated for half the night, only falling asleep when dawn approached.
"Let's go. We have to leave," Shen Luo said.
Although Patriarch Subhuti hadn't specifically asked him to keep the matter a secret, Shen Luo chose not to tell anyone for the time being.
"Leave? Didn't we come to — "Fu Donglai said in astonishment.
He had just finished speaking when Shen Luo interrupted him. "Brother Fu, I'm afraid we have to leave Mount Fangcun and make a trip to the East Sea."
Fu Donglai hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Okay."
When the two of them left, just like when they had arrived, only a small Daoist boy led the way. They didn't attract much attention.
But when they left, Jueming, who was on Mount Fangcun, slowly retracted his gaze.
