After this Daoist asked this question, all the Xuan Zun in Xuntian Dao Zhang looked at Zhang Yu, wanting to see how he would answer this question.
Zhang Yu knew that this question could not be avoided. Although this meeting was called the Xuanxiu Dao Discussion, there might be some people who interpreted this as him using this opportunity to gather Xuanxiu's momentum.
Promoting Xuan Fa was the general strategy of Xuanting. In the past, it had indeed solved many of Tianxia's difficulties, and thus changed the general trend of Tianxia, making it smoother from top to bottom.
However, it was not that some True Cultivators did not have any opinions about this. It was just that in the past, they did not openly discuss this issue and only discussed it in private. However, there were also many True Cultivators who were worried about this. They were afraid that in the future, it would lead to a struggle between Xuan Fa and Xuan Fa. There were even some who wanted to suppress Xuan Fa before it gained momentum to avoid this situation.
However, it was different now. Zhang Yu wanted to complete the Dao Discussion, and Feng Tingzhi became the second Xuan Zun Xuanxiu to entrust Divine Qi. The characteristic of Xuan Fa was that if one person broke through, the people behind him could break through. Therefore, in the foreseeable future, Xuan Fa was bound to catch up. When it rose, it would be difficult to stop it.
What worried some True Cultivators even more was that as long as Xuanting continued, Zhang Yu, as the second Xuan Zun, would most likely become the first Xuan Zun in the future. His wishes would greatly affect Tianxia's direction. Then, how would he treat Xuan Fa?
Most of the people present had switched from True Cultivation to Xun Zun Zun Zun. Even if they were Xuanxiu now, the traces of the past could not be washed away so easily. Some people still followed True Cultivation's ideas and cultivation methods. Even after experiencing this Dao Discussion, they could not immediately change.
Therefore, this seemed to be a matter of the growth and decline of power, but at the same time, it also involved the problem of Dao Discussion. It was also closely related to personal cultivation.
Zhang Yu looked at the many seals on the light screen, and then looked at the Daoist, and said, "Why do people practice Dao Discussion?"
The Daoist thought for a moment and said, "Naturally, it's for transcendence, for freedom and freedom."
Zhang Yu said, "In ancient Xia and Shenxia, this thought was indeed the mainstream. Daoist cultivators sought for personal freedom and freedom. That was the original intention of Daoist cultivators. However, the world is changing, Daoist techniques are changing, and Daoist beliefs are also changing. Now that it has come to Tianxia, it is no longer the same.
Everyone, we all came from this world. Could it be that once we transcend and attain our true selves, we can abandon the world and not care about it anymore? After all of you attained the Dao, even if you were free and unfettered, the root of it all still came from the world. Therefore, you should repay the world and repay the people.
Let's not talk about the principles, just the Dao. Even if you give up the world, you still have a trace of burden on your body. It's just that some fellow Daoists think that they have already become immortals, but they are blinded by the mysteries of heaven and do not see this. "
Every cultivator in Tianxia came from the secular world. Even if they were born to cultivate, they were still born from the essence and blood of their parents. But where did their parents come from? They came from the world of humans. Tracing back to the past, through the evolution of thousands of eras, and then relying on the world of humans. At least, this was the case for most people.
What a Daoist cultivator obtained seemed to be the result of a lifetime, but in fact, it inherited the legacy of thousands of eras. Therefore, a lifetime was not enough to sever it.
Even if you are a pure and untainted person, the Daoist techniques that you cultivate and the fellow Daoists and teachers that you exchange Daoist techniques with are not born out of thin air. Everyone is entangled with the world. If you can transcend, you should also help your fellow Daoists and teachers to transcend, and then help the people of the world to transcend. This way, you can still bear the burden and spread Daoist techniques.
At this moment, that Daoist asked again, "Then may I ask Tingzhi, isn't the more entangled one is, the greater the burden?"
Zhang Yu said, "That is to see the living beings of the world as shackles and burdens. However, the world is like water. The more it gathers, the more it can bear the burden of us cultivators, and the more prosperous our Daoist path is.
Cultivation is about mutual support. Since ancient times, the teachings have been passed down endlessly. The number of Daoists has increased with each generation, which led to the prosperity of today's Daoist techniques.
The ancestors were the first to form sects. At first, it was still okay, everyone had a place to go, and there was Daoism to discuss. Later on, they gradually withdrew, cherishing their own things, and treated each other as strangers. They even killed each other for personal gains. Until Tianxia broke up the sects, gathered the Daoists, and settled in Xuanfu. Therefore, the prosperity in front of us is far greater than in the past.
Therefore, in order to prosper Daoist techniques, the only way is to be connected from top to bottom, so that everyone can use Daoism. Not to mention you and me, even if all of you are in the upper realm, you still care about the lower realm. Don't tell me that this is not enough to prove this principle? "
When everyone heard what he said, they could not help but ponder.
With the help of a Xuanxiu disciple, Jiao Yao also heard what he said. At this moment, he used the disciple's words to express his feelings, "Zhang Tingzhi is right. I have lived a longer life. In the past, when I cultivated Daoism, I saw many people who wanted to learn from Yi Yan and went through many trials.
We cultivated for thousands and thousands of years, but most of the time, we just sat and cultivated. It was only to grind away our lifespan. When we occasionally obtained something, we treated it as a treasure and were not willing to show it to others easily.
This was still considered to have passed the threshold. More often than not, we would not be able to obtain the Daoist techniques. In the end, we would turn into skeletons, which is truly regrettable.
Now, the Daoist techniques are there, and there is no need to search for them. Not to mention those who are talented, even ordinary people, if they are lucky, can achieve something in hundreds and thousands of years. The future is also looking forward to, and this is the reason why Tianxia's Daoist techniques are flourishing. "
When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement. This was because many of them had personally experienced the past.
Zhang Yu said, "Now that we are talking about the difference between True Techniques and Xuan Techniques, isn't the Dao of Creation also a way to seek Daoism? There are also indigenous gods who went to the upper levels.
In my view, these are all Daoist techniques, and there is no distinction between each other. They can compete with each other. However, it is said that if one rises, another falls. This is still the poison left behind by the Daoist thoughts of the past. The Qi Bureau is slightly narrow-minded. "
At this moment, he looked at everyone's name seals, and his gaze seemed to be looking at everyone. He said, "Now, I, Tianxia, do not insist on one path. There are thousands and thousands of Daoists, and they are all adaptable. If everyone can find a Dao that suits them, then that is the Dao of Celestials, the Dao of I, Tianxia!
Everyone, Yuanxia evolved for thousands of eras and destroyed thousands of eras. It wants to establish a principle that will never change. However, there is no change in everything in the world. I respect the ancestors of Yuanxia for daring to go against the will of Heaven, reversing the universe and creating their own creation. However, it caused the top and bottom to not be smooth, and the dimensions to not operate. For thousands of eras, there is only one Dao. From then on, Daoism cannot be found, and people cannot be transcended. It is like a dead body, rotten water, and undetectable. May I ask, how can I seek this Dao? "
That Daoist said, "Heaven has its dimensions, and the earth has its limits. If everyone can attain Dao, how can Dao exist?"
Everyone pondered for a moment, but they really did not know what kind of situation it would be when that time comes.
Zhang Yu said, "How can the people of the past know the situation today? We are all people who seek Dao, and Dao has no end. No one knows what changes will happen in the future. Perhaps when that time comes, we will need another principle.
We do not expect to understand the mysteries of Daoism. What we can do now is only to continue the inheritance, so that our generation and future generations can have more ways to deal with it. "
After listening to his words, the Xuan Zun nodded and bowed to him Solemnly in Xuntian Dao Zhang.
As for the Daoist who spoke, he cupped his fists and silently retreated.
After that, the people who came down continued to discuss Dao. However, once the principles were understood, it was another situation.
The Xuan Zun discussed for three days in a row in the Dao Zhang. In fact, everyone's attainment in Dao was profound, and they were all communicating through their thoughts. Many complicated words were often understood in an instant, so the things that they communicated were far more than what one would imagine.
After three days, the sound of bells and chimes could be heard from the Dao Zhang. Everyone bowed to Zhang Yu, Huan Chao, and Feng before leaving. The name seals on the light screen also faded away one by one.
Chao Tingzhi said to Zhang Yu, "Since everyone has left, I will also take my leave."
Zhang Yu said, "Thank you very much, Chao Tingzhi."
Chao Tingzhi said, "What are you thanking me for? It's good that you don't mind me offending people. Moreover, it's not like I didn't gain anything. Zhang Tingzhi, we will discuss again in this month's meeting. Goodbye." After that, he left.
After he left, Daoist Feng transmitted his thoughts and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, what you said just now was better than ten Dao discussions."
Zhang Yu said, "That's because my attainment in Dao is higher than theirs, so they think that what I said is reasonable. However, if someone surpasses me, whose cultivation is higher than mine, and says something else, they will also be convinced. However, this is the thinking of cultivators, and it's hard to get rid of it now.
Therefore, what we have to do is to guide the Dao at all times. Only then will we have the confidence to speak. If we don't do it ourselves, how can we convince others? "
Usually, reason is reason, and words are words. However, when it comes to cultivators, their cultivation level is high, and their words naturally become reasonable.
Daoist Feng felt that this was the case. Could it be that no one in the past could say such a thing? It's just that their attainment in Dao was not enough, so no one listened.
He sighed and said, "Just now, a junior came to find me. He said that he also wanted to hold a Dao discussion in Xuntian Dao Zhang. He even said that Xuan Zun can be discussed, but why can't disciples be discussed?"
Zhang Yu thought for a while. Although the disciples usually discussed Dao in Xuntian Dao Zhang, it was very fragmented. They all talked about their own things. If they could gather to discuss, it would be a good thing. He said, "The Xuanfu can take the lead in this. We still need to talk about this during the Xuanting in the middle of the month."
Daoist Feng said, "It should be so."
The two of them said a few more words and ended the conversation.
Zhang Yu retracted his thoughts and pointed with his finger. A Dao book appeared in the light. It recorded the words of everyone just now. Then, he opened the book and wrote a note. He called Daoist Ming Zhou to keep it, and prepared to leave it for the future generations to study.
After doing this, he looked inside and outside. Seeing that there were temporary changes, he went into meditation.
A few days passed. The bell in the sea of clouds rang. It was the time for the court meeting. Hence, he stood up and stepped into the river of light.
Recently, the court meeting was to discuss the preparation for the battle against Yuanxia. Everyone had already settled this matter, and it was just a routine exchange. Hence, not long after, he returned from the river.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something. It was Jin Zhixing's thoughts. He said, "Gold Value Department, is there any news?"
Jin Zhixing's solemn voice sounded, "Tingzhi, Yuanxia has already made his move."
