"The sun rises and sets, the moon hangs in the middle of the sky. The cycle goes on and on. Why would there be a need for thoughts and spirits to control it?"
Seeing that there was no spirit to control his body, he entered the state of Thoughtless Tranquility. He practiced the two sets of fist techniques, changing Yin and Yang, adjusting hardness and softness, and grasping the weight. Hong Yi's spirit sat in the void and suddenly understood the true meaning of the state of Thoughtless Tranquility.
Between heaven and earth, the sun rises from the east, the evening falls from the west, the wind blows, the thunder and lightning, and all kinds of movements circulate endlessly. There was no thought or spirit to control it. This was the law of nature.
"The Buddha said that Thoughtless Tranquility is the law of nature." Hong Yi understood this principle and understood it even more.
Disregarding the natural movements of his body, Hong Yi relied on this bit of understanding in his heart and fused it into the cultivation of the Amitabha Sutra of the Past. As he circulated his spirit, there were constantly flashes of light and light that gathered on his spirit, turning the formless and intangible spirit into the true body of the Treasured Moonlight Monarch.
This time, the Moonlight King Real Body was three times faster than before. In a few breaths, the spirit was crystal clear, emitting a faint light like an everlasting lamp.
"The Fork of Yaksha Of Baekje!"
Hong Yi felt that his spirit had been enlightened and had become stronger. The Treasured Moonlight Monarch Body that he had formed was even more agile and tenacious. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind and an evil thought rose up.
"Subdue the evil thought and become a Yaksha. You can be a protector." Hong Yi quickly subdued the evil thought and let it wrap around him. Gradually, the evil thought turned into a huge three-pronged steel fork in his hand!
At this moment, Hong Yi's image changed again. In the hands of the glass-like Moonlight King Body, there was an additional three-meter-long, ferocious, ferocious, and terrifying trident weapon.
This weapon was also formed by condensed moonlight, but it was completely different from the moonlight condensed on his body. In the glass-like color, there was a black gas circulating, making people feel extremely evil at first glance.
Hong Yi knew that this was the trident in Yaksha Of Baekje's hand. The Evil Trident was condensed from his own evil thoughts and moonlight.
"This trident can injure a person's soul."
Hong Yi looked at the pitchfork in his hand and knew that this thing was similar to the Soul Piercing Arrow. It could stab an enemy's spirit. Based on his Manifestation level, he could stab and even destroy the spirit of any dao technique below the Manifestation level!
In the Manifestation Realm, the Divine Soul condensed the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and could change endlessly.
This time, when Hong Yi condensed his evil thoughts into Yaksha Of Baekje's "Evil Trident", he knew that he had truly fallen into the state of manifestation.
This condensed "Evil Trident" could not be compared to the visualized Yaksha Of Baekje.
The visualized Yaksha Of Baekje was invisible and intangible. It could only affect and confuse the enemy's mind. Once the enemy's Taoist techniques were powerful, this confusion would not work.
But this "Evil Trident" was tangible and tangible. It could be seen with the naked eye and had real power. Not only could it injure the spirit, but it could also injure the flesh!
Even if the enemy's Taoist techniques were higher than Hong Yi's, they would be more or less injured when hit by this trident.
This was the difference between visualization confusion and materialization.
"The evil thoughts are Yaksha Of Baekje, the killing thoughts are Rakshasa King, the evil thoughts are Shura Of Gojoseon, the fighting thoughts are King Kong, and the anger and destruction thoughts are Ming Of Silla." With this, Hong Yi took a small half step forward and cultivated from the large success stage of "Object Drive" to "Manifestation". He repeated the five great thoughts recorded in the Amitabha Sutra to kill the enemy's divine soul one by one, and in his heart, he deepened his understanding of the sutra and secret canon.
The Great Buddha of the Past was more complete.
The Dharma Access to Practice and Dharma Access to the Past was clearer in Hong Yi's mind.
"The Great Buddha of the Future is only a Dharma Access to Practice. It has no effect on Taoist techniques for spirit combat. In the Amitabha Sutra, the ones that are truly used for spirit combat are the Five Great Demon Gods. "
"When I was trapped by Zhao Feirong's Galaxy Vortex, even if I visualized Amitabha Buddha, I could only keep my nature intact. She couldn't hurt me, but it was still impossible for me to escape. Only in anger, Ming Of Silla, which produced destruction, could the endless starry sky be broken. The Buddha's anger really destroys everything, destroys everything. "
The anger of Amitabha Buddha, incarnated as Ming Of Silla, was to destroy Ming Of Silla.
Hong Yi once again thought of the battle with Zhao Feirong.
But now he didn't dare to try it again. He didn't even dare to visualize it, let alone condense it into a physical form. This was because at the realm of manifestation, he could only visualize Rakshasa King at most, and barely reach Shura Of Gojoseon.
"When I reach the Ghost Immortal Realm, I can visualize the Wisdom King of Annihilation … But to really gather my angry thoughts, the evil energy of heaven and earth, and manifest the True Body of the Wisdom King of Annihilation, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I have to become a Yang Spirit!"
If he really condensed Ming Of Silla into a physical form, Hong Yi couldn't think of anyone in the world who could be his opponent.
But it was still early.
"Today's harvest is great. My martial arts cultivation has steadily entered the realm of Martial Master, and I've also glimpsed the state of 'Thoughtless Tranquility'. My Spirit Cultivation has also truly reached the realm of manifestation. If I advance a few more steps, to the level of Great Grandmaster in martial arts, and to the level of Body Possession in immortal arts, then I'll truly be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Feirong, and become one of the few first-class masters in the world. "
Hong Yi suddenly dispersed the moonlight condensed on his spirit, and returned to his body.
As soon as he returned to his body, he immediately stopped punching. Hong Yi felt that the blood in his body was circulating, his joints were slightly humming, and his muscles were ready to move. They contained endless power, and were filled with endless confidence. His condition was good, and his energy was abundant. It was simply at a peak that ordinary people couldn't reach.
With the current state of his body, Hong Yi had a feeling that even if he faced a Connate master like Chi Zhuiyang, he could even put up a fight.
However, Hong Yi didn't take advantage of this exuberant energy to find Chi Zhuiyang for a fight. Instead, he sat cross-legged in silence, and suppressed this exuberant energy that was ready to move. His body was peaceful, and his breathing was steady. He slowly fell asleep.
His mind and body were completely asleep, resting.
When he woke up, it was already the next day. The sky was bright. Birds were chirping outside the window, and the shadows of the trees were shining into the house through the window. The cool smell of the well water in the courtyard was clearly sensed by Hong Yi. These scenes naturally had a touch of color.
Splash! Splash!
Mu The Younger was fetching water from the well in the courtyard, washing Hong Yi's clothes, and then drying them under the sun.
"No, I can't let Mu The Younger wash my clothes in the future. How can I let her become my maid? When I settle down in the Southern Military Camp, I must buy a few reliable maids and let Mu The Younger be the Eldest Miss. " Hong Yi shook his head, and shouted, "Mu The Younger, call everyone up later. We'll go to the Yellow Millet Restaurant in town to eat. After eating, we'll come back to pack up and set off."
"Alright," Mu The Younger agreed.
After Hong Yi washed up for a while, he sincerely placed the 'Punisher' Divine Peach Sword horizontally on the incense burner table, lit three sandalwood incense sticks, and worshipped for a while. The connection between his mind and the sword grew stronger, and only then did he stop.
This was a compulsory lesson for worshipping and practicing the Divine Sword every day.
When Hong Yi was done with his homework, everyone had gathered. After leaving a few people to look after the luggage, Hong Yi and the rest headed to the Huang Liang Restaurant in the center of Yellow Millet Town.
The Yellow Millet Rice of Yellow Millet Town was famous. Hong Yi had once eaten a meal in the Juyuan Restaurant in the Jade Capital. The fragrance of the rice assailed his nostrils, and the fragrance lingered in his mouth for a few days. Even when he was sleeping at night, the fragrance seemed to enter his soul, causing him to have beautiful dreams. Hence, there was the saying 'Yellow Millet Dream'. (This is not the Earth world, so I'm twisting the idiom.)
The southern rice was the best in the world, and the Yellow Millet Rice was the best in the South.
It was not easy for Hong Yi to come to Yellow Millet Town in the South. Of course, he would not miss the opportunity to have a good meal.
The Huang Liang Restaurant was located in the center of the town. Behind it was the quiet and beautiful Yan River, a branch of the Bailang River. Beside the river were tea trees of the same color and a bluestone dam. The river water was clear and beautiful, like a piece of light blue crystal. Fish could be seen swimming in it. In the distance, there were many naked children playing in the water. Some women who were washing clothes used a stone mallet to hit the clothes, making rhythmic banging sounds.
Seeing such a scenery, Hong Yi truly felt the interest of the water towns of the seven southern provinces.
The Huang Liang Restaurant was very large. There were more than ten buildings, and each of them was three stories high. It stood on the street in the center of the town. At a glance, it seemed that the whole street was the property of the restaurant.
When Hong Yi and the others arrived at the bottom of the restaurant, a waiter had already come up to welcome them. Seeing that Hong Yi and the others were dressed in embroidered robes, with long swords hanging from their waists, and following behind them were a few fierce-looking servants with tattoos on their faces, who seemed to have been sent to exile, the waiter knew that they were not to be trifled with. He did not dare to slight them. He bowed and invited them in.
"Give me a bucket of Yellow Millet Rice and a few pots of Yellow Millet Rice Wine. Also, prepare a few of your specialty dishes. Don't make a feast that is too meaty or greasy."
Hong Yi asked Mu The Younger to throw a few small silver cakes over. The waiter weighed them in his hand and observed the color. There was a frost-like texture on the surface. He then flicked it with his finger, and when it came to his ear, he heard a lingering sound that sounded like a wind chime. He knew that it was a high-quality "Jade Capital Coin", and immediately beamed with joy.
The silver coins minted by the Da Qian were all mints in every governor's manor. Although the style was the same, there were differences in the color. Among the silver coins in the world, the coins from the capital city of Jade Capital had the best color. After minting, there would be a frost-like texture on the surface of the coins. This was the true "fine silver".
"Young Master, it's a little noisy in the hall. There are private rooms on the top floor. You only need to pay a little more. I wonder if you …?"
"It's still morning. It's not lunchtime yet. Why are there so many people in the restaurant?" Hong Yi had long noticed that there were many people eating on this street. There were horses and carriages coming and going in an endless stream. There were all kinds of people from all walks of life, and he had long been curious.
As soon as he entered the restaurant's hall, it was also filled with people. Dozens of large tables were filled with people, and it was very noisy. Hong Yi looked around and found that these people were dressed differently. Some of them were obviously strong, and their clothes were bulging with hidden weapons. As they ate and drank, it was as if there was no one else around.
"There are so many people. Firstly, our Yellow Millet Town's Yellow Millet Rice is famous throughout the world. Secondly, recently, I heard that the ancient road of Nanzhou is not safe, so many people are staying here. Young Master, are you going to the south? Are you going to the ancient road of Nanzhou? "
The waiter explained as he invited Hong Yi upstairs.
"The ancient road of Nanzhou is not safe? What's going on? "Chi Zhuiyang frowned and asked.
"I heard that a demon has appeared in the Black Wood Mountain near the ancient road. When night falls, it will appear and harm people. The ancient road of Nanzhou is a few hundred miles long, and it is surrounded by barren mountains on all sides. There is not a single inn. If you want to rest at night, you will have to sleep in the open. This is simply sending your flesh to the demon's mouth."
As the waiter answered, he had already reached the top floor of the restaurant.
The top floor of the restaurant was indeed a lot quieter. There were many private rooms by the window, which could look at the mirror-like Yan River from afar. It made people feel relaxed and happy.
"Demon?" Hong Yi and Chi Zhuiyang looked at each other in surprise. They were going to the south, and they were going to take the ancient road of Nanzhou. When they heard that the road was not safe, they thought that it was blocked by bandits like the Black Hawk Stockade. They didn't expect that it was actually a demon.
Although Hong Yi had seen demons before, the little fox in the secluded valley, Tu Lao, and the Pure Fox Clan could also be considered as demons.
Everything in the world had spirituality, and some of them had intelligence and could learn from humans to cultivate. They could all be considered as demons. However, in Hong Yi's heart, such animals were not so much demons, but rather, uncivilized people.
As for the demons that harmed people, Hong Yi had only read about them in the novel's notes. He had never seen them in real life. Even if there were such demons, they would be quickly eliminated by the government and the Daoist sects. The three major Daoist sects in the world, Taishang, Righteous One, and Fang Xian, were not to be trifled with.
"What kind of demon is it? Did the government announce it? "
Hong Yi asked.
"I don't know what demon it is, but I've heard rumors that some dead people were wrapped into large cocoons." The shop assistant arranged the seats and let Hong Yi and the other three take their seats. "The government. It seems that the Southern Prefecture's Shuiyang Province's Inspector Hong Kang has sent troops to investigate. They sent Daoist Fang Xiandao to investigate, but they didn't find anything. Later, they issued a notice saying that people who travel on the Southern Prefecture's ancient road should be careful. After that, there was no further news."
"The Shuiyang Province's Inspector Hong Kang?" Hong Yi's eyes flashed. Hong Kang was Madam Zhao's second son, his elder brother from a different mother. He was also his mortal enemy!
"Alright, you can leave." Hong Yi waved his hand. He knew that the shop assistant would not be able to get anything out of him. He was also a Daoist cultivator, so he didn't care about demons, unless they were ghost immortals like the Eight Great Demon Immortals.
However, ghost immortals like the Eight Great Demon Immortals had long been reincarnated into humans. They no longer had any connection with demons, so they wouldn't fall to the point of harming people.
Not long after, the Huangliang Rice was served. The rice was actually pure white with a hint of golden color. The fragrance wafted out, greatly increasing one's appetite. Chewing the rice in one's mouth, it was incomparably fragrant and round like a pearl. When chewing, it was also very chewy. It was indeed the best rice.
Shen Tiezhu and Mu The Younger ate happily. Hong Yi also ate a few bowls in a row.
Even the Five Elders of the White Cloud, the Black Sparrowhawk, the Golden Sparrowhawk, and the Silver Sparrowhawk, who were serving them, kept swallowing their saliva.
"Brother Chi, what are you thinking about?" Hong Yi asked when he saw that Chi Zhuiyang was eating absent-mindedly.
"Just now, I heard that the dead demons on the road were wrapped up like cocoons. That reminded me of someone," Chi Zhuiyang said.
"Who?" Hong Yi knew that Chi Zhuiyang was very knowledgeable.
"The state preceptor of the Rouran Empire, the Golden Spider King," Chi Zhuiyang said.
"The Rouran Empire?" Hong Yi's thoughts raced as he recalled what he had read in history. He knew that this was another large empire on the eastern plains. However, this empire did not border the Da Qian Empire. Yun Meng was tens of thousands of kilometers away, and there were no border crossings at all.
The plains were vast and boundless. Aside from Yun Meng, there were many countries and tribes, big and small.
"The eight great Yao Immortals of the world are the Peacock King, the Heavenly Snake King, the White Ape King, the Golden Spider King, the Silver Shark King, the Divine Eagle King, the Black Wolf King, and the Sweetyfox Monarch. Among them, the Golden Spider King is a rare Golden Spider. This kind of Golden Spider spits out tenacious silk that is difficult to cut by blades and swords. When it spits out its silk, it can form a large net in the air to capture birds. Even eagles are eaten by it. If a human is caught in its net, they will be unable to move and turn into a cocoon, their eyes closed as they await death. It is the most powerful of them all, "Chi Zhuiyang said after drinking a mouthful of Yellow Grain Wine.
This was the first time Hong Yi had heard of the names of all eight great Yao Immortals of the world, and he found it refreshing.
"Then you are saying that the demon in Mt. Blackwood on the ancient path of Nanzhou is a Golden Spider, or perhaps the Golden Spider King?" Hong Yi said.
"The Golden Spider King has an exalted status, and is the teacher of a nation. Why would it appear here? However, the Golden Spider is only born in the depths of Rouran's Wolf Spider Mountain. Neither the Da Qian nor Yun Meng have one. At the same time, it is also the totem of Rouran. Furthermore, this Golden Spider is very useful for those who cultivate the Dao to the realm of Body Possession. One of the elders of Xuantian Hall has such a Golden Spider. When fed with spiritual medicine, it becomes even more powerful. When fighting an enemy, one can attach their divine soul to it, and it will spit out spider silk. If one is caught in the spider silk, even a peak Xiantian expert will find it difficult to escape. They can only obediently wait to be slaughtered, "Chi Zhuiyang said.
"Body Possession." Hong Yi nodded. He knew that when cultivators reach the realm of Body Possession, they can attach themselves to flesh and blood at will and control their movements. Some experts can feed powerful animals with spiritual medicine to make them even more powerful. When faced with an enemy, they can attach themselves to the enemy and kill them. This is the Body Possession.
This Golden Spider was so powerful that it was probably equivalent to a Fist Technique Grandmaster.
"If it's a Golden Spider, then we can catch it. In the future, Brother Yi can cultivate the Body Possession." Mu The Younger raised his head and said.
"This is just a guess. However, we still have to go to Nanzhou's ancient path today. If there is such a ferocious creature, we have to be careful."
Hong Yi ate as he picked up the food.
At this moment, footsteps came from below the stairs again. At the same time, a crisp woman's voice sounded, "Hey, is there anyone in the private room upstairs? If there is, chase them away immediately. If it is as messy as downstairs and disturbs our meal, your restaurant will be closed. "
"Who are these people? Why are they speaking so arrogantly? "Hong Yi's ears twitched.
