In the middle of the lake, nine figures surrounded Little Grief and sat cross-legged.
Master Xuandu and Li Changshou of Ren School.
Guang Chengzi of Chan School, Perfected Taiyi, and Perfected Yu Ding.
Daoist Duobao of Jie School, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, Zhao Gongming, and Fairy Yun Xiao.
Nine experts of the Dao Sect and nine core disciples of the Dao Sect were gathered in the Eighteen Levels of Hell of the Netherworld. They were less than ten feet away from the Lady of Earth's Seven Emotions incarnation, Little Grief.
The Great Daoist Master's voice from a moment ago still echoed in their ears.
"If you want to fight against the power of the seven emotions, you have to experience what this power is.
It is not a divine power, nor is it a spell. It is the resonance of one's own emotions. We need to fight against the emotion of sadness and master the method to resist the power of the seven emotions.
For example, when facing Xiao Ai, we try our best to think of happy things to offset the negative emotions in our hearts.
If you feel like you can't take it anymore, retreat. The further away you are from Xiao Ai, the less affected you will be …
Hence …
Before the scene of the disciples of the nine Saints sitting around could last for a moment, Perfected Taiyi chuckled. Tears flickered in the corners of his eyes. He hurriedly turned around and fled into the distance. As he cried, he laughed loudly. He no longer had the demeanor of an expert.
Daoist Duobao sighed and said, "I never expected Junior Brother Taiyi to be a sentimental person."
Guangchengzi smiled without saying a word, feeling a little awkward.
The other eight could continue to persist. Perfected Yu Ding, who had come with Perfected Taiyi, did not react at all. He only seemed to be meditating quietly at the side.
"Ah." Little Grief lay on the ground and sighed softly. Her tears could not stop falling as she muttered softly,
"I'm so pitiful. I'm already so pitiful, but I still have to be used as a whetstone and be surrounded by people …
This is probably the fate of our incarnations.
Existence was fake, just an extension that shouldn't exist.
You guys are surrounding me, thinking about how to get rid of me, and I'm even feeling a little ridiculous joy from the bottom of my heart because of this liveliness and being missed by others …
That's even sadder … "
"Sigh, I really can't do it!"
Daoist Duobao stood up and bowed to Little Grief. He turned around and flew into the distance.
"I can deal with the other seven emotions, but this is the only one I can't deal with! She's so pitiful! "
"Sigh, the only person who felt sorry for me has also left."
Little Grief revealed a sad smile. She tapped her finger gently on the lake of tears and said in a daze,
"What is there to be happy about in existence?"
The Goddess of Golden Spirit stood up, turned around, and walked into the distance. When she walked into the distance, she only sighed and raised her hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
"I'm the same as Eldest Senior Brother."
Three deaths.
Li Changshou looked at Fairy Yun Xiao beside him with concern. When he saw that Yun Xiao's Dao runes and emotions were calm, he felt a little more at ease.
Half a day later, the remaining six people stood up and bowed to Little Grief. They went to the edge of the Tear Lake with the three immortals who had left previously and held the first special meeting to save the Lady of Earth.
The Great Daoist Master said, "Junior Brothers and Sisters, do you have a clear concept of the power of the seven emotions?"
The immortals all nodded.
Guang Chengzi said warmly, "The seven emotions and six desires of living beings cannot be avoided. We have cultivated for many years and are the same. However, we usually do not show it.
The incarnation of the Lady of Earth's seven emotions did not originate from her own seven emotions. Instead, it was the incomplete seven emotions that all living beings had abandoned before experiencing reincarnation. Its power was far from what mystical abilities could compare to.
We have to have the heart to tolerate the incarnation of the seven emotions. Only then can we truly transcend the seven emotions. "
"Eldest Senior Brother is right." Perfected Taiyi hugged his arms and nodded. He expressed his approval and changed his tone. "However, after thinking about it carefully, I don't seem to have said anything."
Guang Chengzi glared at Perfected Taiyi, who calmly rolled his eyes.
"Then tell me." Guang Chengzi casually took out a huge seal and held it in his hand. He said calmly, "What should we do?"
Perfected Taiyi looked solemn and said seriously,
"I just experienced it carefully … Eldest Senior Brother is right! We have to be tolerant and love! "
"Stop joking." Master Xuandu smiled and said, "Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, do you need to experience it for a while?"
The immortals shook their heads in unison. They already understood how to resist the power of the seven emotions.
The Great Daoist Master said, "Previously, Changgeng and I entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation once and fought with evil and desire.
Ahem, under my cover, Changgeng successfully came into contact with the Lady of Earth through the incarnation of desire … "
"Oh?"
Zhao Gongming's eyes lit up. He looked at Li Changshou and smiled.
"Coincidentally, my second sister is here too. Changgeng, can you tell me in detail?"
Fairy Yun Xiao hurriedly said, "Brother, don't be like that. We're discussing serious matters."
"It's fine." Li Changshou smiled and agreed. He took out scrolls from his chest pocket and used his immortal power to give them to the male immortals.
Li Changshou stopped smiling and said seriously, "The incarnation of desire is ever-changing.
"The incarnation of desire has many forms. To different Qi Practitioners, she can be very strong or very weak.
Unlike Little Grief, the incarnation of desire will take the initiative to stir up the desire in our hearts. This desire can be cultivation level, power, or to obtain the respect of others. As long as she takes advantage of it, her Dao heart will be filled with desire and she will go berserk.
After I withstood her attacks several times, she also revealed a powerful ability — the desire to transform into a living being and directly interfere with our Dao hearts.
Fortunately, when she dealt with me, she transformed into lust. I happened to have some Dharma artifacts that could calm my Dao heart … They are these paintings.
Everyone, bring them with you. If you are affected by the incarnation of desire during the battle, you can take them out and take a look. "
The male immortals were filled with curiosity. They opened the scrolls and observed them carefully. The entire white Tear Lake Universe was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop …
Suddenly, someone coughed dryly. The male immortals turned their heads and looked at Li Changshou with complicated gazes.
Zhao Gongming took out a Sea-Calming Divine Pearl and squeezed it against his eyes. He spat out two small water arrows.
Daoist Duobao chuckled and rolled his eyes. No one knew what he had thought of.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit looked at the treasure map in Zhao Gongming's hand curiously. The expression on her face was strange. She looked at Li Changshou's current appearance and muttered,
"Junior Brother, could it be that you took a look at your masterpieces before you met Junior Sister Yun Xiao?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "This is just for self-defense. Why should I be wary of Fairy Yun Xiao?"
Yun Xiao pursed her lips and chuckled. She did not say anything.
Perfected Taiyi smiled and sighed. "No wonder the disciples of the Dao Sect are inferior to you now.
The Water God can do what ordinary people can't. He's extraordinary. "
Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He took the initiative to control the topic and said slowly, "After I found the Lady of Earth, I talked to her for a long time.
"After I found the Lady of Earth, I talked to her for a long time.
Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, I believe you all understand how the Seven Emotions incarnation came about and why it was born. I won't go into detail. I'll talk about how to deal with it.
According to the Lady of Earth's guidance, in order to solve the problem of the Seven Emotions incarnation, there had to be a process of guiding and erupting. The seven emotions could not be suppressed and could only be guided out.
This process required the incarnations of the seven emotions to descend into the world together. They would affect and restrain each other to reach a stable state like the seven emotions of ordinary people.
Then, I will let the Lady of Earth return from the Seven Emotions incarnation and complete this rescue. "
He paused and gave the experts a short period of time to think.
Daoist Duobao pondered for a while. "I have to make the incarnations of the seven emotions appear at the same time and achieve balance?
That's a little difficult … "
Li Changshou nodded and concluded, "There are a total of four steps in this process.
The first step is to bring Little Grief back to the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The second step is to release the Lady of Earth's Seven Emotions incarnation. The third step is to adjust the power of the Seven Emotions incarnation. The fourth step is to save the Lady of Earth. "
The Goddess of Golden Spirit frowned and said, "Then, what about Little Grief?"
Li Changshou was silent for a while.
"Aren't you known as the most intelligent disciple of Ren School?" The Goddess of Golden Spirit could not bear to see it. "Why didn't you save her?"
"I can, but I can't."
Li Changshou sent a voice transmission. "They are a part of the Lady of Earth to begin with. However, they have different personalities and have independent Dao hearts.
Neither of us are involved. I don't know how painful it is to have one's Dao heart severed. Isn't the main body of the Seven Emotions incarnation the Lady of Earth? "
The Goddess of Golden Spirit wanted to say something but hesitated. Her Dao realm was not low. At that moment, she was only affected by her sadness. She naturally understood that what Li Changshou said was right.
Li Changshou looked at Yun Xiao and quickly looked away.
He continued, "We need to determine the division of labor for the third step now. I will make a detailed plan later.
At that moment, among the seven emotions, Little Grief was the strongest, followed by evil thoughts, and desire. Next was fear and anger. Last was love and joy.
After all, when living beings die, there are very few happy thoughts. Therefore, there is not much love and joy left for the Lady of Earth …
Evil and anger are the most aggressive, but they need to weaken the power of evil and increase the power of anger. They need to alleviate the evil thoughts and allow the anger to increase rapidly.
The evil thoughts have fought with my Eldest Senior Brother. Next, let my Eldest Senior Brother deal with it. Senior Brothers and Sisters, what do you think? "
The Great Daoist Master smiled and nodded. The immortals nodded.
Li Changshou continued, "There's a problem now. Who can make the incarnation of anger angrier in the shortest time?"
The immortals pondered for a while and looked at …
The handsome, red-robed Perfected Taiyi.
The corners of Perfected Taiyi's mouth twitched slightly. He took out a mirror and looked at himself.
"These days, even a true male immortal is targeted like this!
Alright, I will deal with the incarnation of anger! "
"That's appropriate." Li Changshou squinted and smiled. "After all, the overall strength of the incarnation of anger is not very strong."
Perfected Taiyi scolded jokingly, "Changgeng! Come to my Qianyuan Mountain for a drink when you have time! "
"Definitely." Li Changshou agreed and continued to discuss with the immortals about the candidates to deal with them.
Not long after, the list was finalized.
Zhao Gongming was in charge of dealing with the incarnation of fear. Perfected Yu Ding took the initiative to deal with the incarnation of desire.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit dealt with the incarnation of love and the incarnation of joy, which were the least difficult. Li Changshou and Fairy Yun Xiao worked together to deal with the incarnation of sorrow, which was the most infectious.
Guang Chengzi and Daoist Duobao were in charge of providing support everywhere.
Li Changshou reminded, "This is not a simple battle. For example, the incarnation of joy has to make her happier.
The incarnation of love has other arrangements. This is not the love between a man and a woman in the narrow sense. All the love in the world is included …
Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, there's something here that requires the help of the Immortal Sect of Chan School. "
Li Changshou took out a jade token and handed it to Guang Chengzi. Guang Chengzi nodded after reading it and promised to make arrangements later.
It was similar to the arrangements of Jie School.
Fairy Yun Xiao asked softly, "How can we make Little Grief more cheerful?"
The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, "Changgeng, go and demonstrate to Junior Sister Yun Xiao. It can be considered as an example for everyone."
"Yes, Senior Brother."
Li Changshou stood up and bowed to his senior brothers and sisters. Then, he rode a cloud towards the lake.
"Ah ~"
Little Grief's sigh and murmur flew over from afar.
"Poor me. I still have to be used as a demonstration target …
How can I fill it when the sadness is so great? "
Li Changshou landed on the cloud and said warmly, "Fellow Daoist, you're not me. How do you know that I don't know your pain?"
Little Grief replied weakly.
"Is there a need to understand each other? Is there really someone who wants to understand each other? It's just to get a response. That's why you pretend to understand others.
Aren't you tired? "
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
He could not win. In such a situation, no matter what logic he said, there would be more logic suppressing him.
In that case, he would just change his perspective.
Li Changshou sat in front of her calmly. He took out a book from his chest pocket and read it. From time to time, he would smile and put down the book and laugh.
The immortals from the Dao Sect in the distance looked enlightened. They had roughly captured the essence of it.
Distract the other party's attention and arouse their curiosity!
Unfortunately, Little Grief only lay there and cried silently. She ignored Li Changshou's situation.
Li Changshou continued to read his book. He did not feel that there was any danger of failing …
A moment later, Little Grief opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with tears and helplessness.
"Do you have to ridicule a sad person like me here?
You have your happiness, and I have my sadness. Can't you laugh somewhere else? "
Li Changshou closed the scroll and asked in confusion, "Fellow Daoist, what is there to be sad about?"
"Life is fake. I shouldn't have been born. Isn't it worth being sad?"
"Then, what is real?"
Li Changshou asked warmly, "You previously said that everything comes from the perception of living beings of the outside world. All prosperity is fake, like a fleeting cloud. Everything has no meaning.
However, Little Grief, who defined these meanings?
Is it you?
Or did other living beings give you such a concept?
Now that we're talking here, aren't you real? "
Little Grief muttered, "However, my existence needs to be erased. It has to be corrected. It's still fake."
"Don't you want to experience other emotions before you're corrected?"
"Is there a point?" Little Grief asked sadly. "Can't you let me disappear just like that?"
Li Changshou continued warmly.
"It might not be meaningful to you, but it's very meaningful to the living being that gave birth to you and needs your help.
Isn't Little Grief, who is occupied by sorrow and sorrow, still her?
You, who has been hiding here and did not dare to go out for fear of hurting others, are ultimately the same living being as she, who has carried all the suffering and still wants to help others.
You're just as gentle. "
Little Grief's lips trembled as she cried, "What can I help her with? I'm just a trash who only knows sorrow and despair! "
"Come, how about this? Let's play a simple game. It might be helpful to you."
Li Changshou extended his right hand to Little Grief. "Just treat it as if you can work hard to sit up for her?"
"It's meaningless …"
"Then you can lie down. Look."
Golden spots of light appeared on Li Changshou's right hand. Each spot of light contained the scene of Li Changshou laughing as he read the book.
"This is a part of my happiness. You should also share your sorrow with me."
Little Grief's fingers trembled. A light blue ball of light slowly flew over and circled in Li Changshou's palm.
Li Changshou closed his eyes and activated his technique. He kneaded the two balls of light into a ball. The two beams of light chased each other and turned into Taiji before returning to the Chaos.
Little Grief tilted her head and watched. Although she felt a mysterious Dao rune, she did not know what it meant …
Soon, Li Changshou took out a pearl and injected the Taiji ball into it. Then, he covered the pearl with a black cloth.
"Little Grief, tell me, is this joy or sadness? You should be able to understand the Dao of Yin-Yang that I revealed just now, right? "
"Neither … It's the chaos of emotions …"
"The Chaos is constantly evolving, but the direction of the evolution is uncertain. I can tell you clearly that the emotions inside have already been set.
The Chaos gives birth to Yin and Yang. The two most basic emotions are sorrow and joy.
Therefore, there's a 50% chance that it's sadness and 50% joy, right? "
"Yes, it seems so."
"Then, if you don't remove this black cloth, sadness and joy can be considered to exist at the same time, right?"
"You can say that …"
Little Grief tilted her head. The immortals from the Dao Sect in the distance also tilted their heads and gradually became confused.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Therefore, sadness and joy have already overlapped. As long as you don't remove this cloth, both can exist at the same time.
Then, look forward. You might be able to see the next moment or the next hour, but what about further away?
If the time is far enough and you can't foresee the distance, will the emotions there also be in a state of chaos?
In the chaos of emotions, sadness and joy exist at the same time. They have yet to be determined. Only when you arrive there will your emotions collapse in one direction.
There's a 50% chance that it's sadness, and a 50% chance that it's joy, right? "
"No, what you said is all nonsense." Little Grief immediately shook her head. "I can't live that far. Everything about me is set."
"Then tell me." Li Changshou shook the ball under the black cloth. "Must it be sadness inside?"
Little Grief could not help but be stunned.
Li Changshou smiled and squinted. "Look down."
Little Grief subconsciously looked down and saw that she had already propped herself up and was sitting diagonally. The strap of her black dress slid down her shoulders …
Li Changshou stood up and placed the pearl wrapped in black cloth in front of Little Grief.
He whispered, "Sadness is not the meaning of your existence. Feeling the sadness of living beings is."
After saying that, Li Changshou turned around and rode a cloud towards the immortals of the Dao Sect.
Little Grief looked at the treasure ball wrapped in black cloth and slowly sat up. She reached out with her hand, but when she was about to touch the black cloth, she retracted it.
The sadness that filled the Lake of Tears had become much thinner.
"Ah, Senior Brother Xuandu." Zhao Gongming went to Master Xuandu's side and muttered, "What realm is Changgeng at now?"
"I don't know." The Great Daoist Master looked at his hands. The two light balls in his hands were slowly spinning.
Zhao Gongming smiled and said, "Senior Brother Xuandu, what are you doing?"
"I'm learning it. I'll fight the little evil girl later." The Great Daoist Master crushed the light ball and smiled calmly. He was already confident.
The essence of Taiji was simple. Of course, he was very familiar with it!
