Lou Xiaoyi understood that as long as he broke the rules, the monks would no longer need to follow the rules. This was a tacit understanding.
He also knew about reincarnation, but Daoism's reincarnation was based on natural reincarnation and rarely involved karma. This was the fundamental difference in reincarnation between Buddhism and Daoism.
The Corpse Lotus Reincarnation Will of Nature that was left to him by the Three Qin was the direction he explored in the Dao of Reincarnation. Of course, it could not be compared to Pu Song's Dao of Karma Reincarnation that he had cultivated for thousands of years, but it was not to the extent of losing. It was just that he was at a disadvantage in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
In such a Dao state, in the constant changes of Heaven, Man, Evil God, Hell, Hungry Ghost, and Beast, he had to guard himself. Otherwise, he would follow the rhythm of the monks and eventually lose himself in the Six Paths of Reincarnation, becoming a Hungry Ghost and Beast!
A battle like this was a battle of pure Grand Dao Concepts. The mysterious and unfathomable secret techniques of the Buddhist Sect couldn't be used. Of course, the special skills of a sword cultivator couldn't be used either. It looked like a battle of words, but if the Dao Realm cultivator couldn't win, then their lives would still be in danger!
Of course, both sides would not go so far. Lou Xiaoyi could certainly use the flying sword to disrupt the rhythm of the monks' Dao state, but if he did so, he would lose!
In the stalemate, he also wrote a verse, "The Six Paths of Reincarnation are bitter, the grandson marries the grandmother, cows and sheep are the seat of honor, the six families are cooked in the pot."
He was actually secretly learning from them!
The universe was about to enter the middle stage. Among the next twenty over Innate Daos, many were unique to Buddhism or shared by Daoism and Buddhism, such as Yin Virtue, Fortune, Nirvana, Nirvana, Return to One, Karma, Reincarnation, and so on.
Time was tight, so it would be difficult to find a quiet place to study and a suitable teacher! He was confident that he could master these Daos because of their foundation. Firstly, he had a rudimentary understanding of them, and secondly, he could benefit from the fragments of Daos. But in the process of comprehending the first twelve Daos, he understood that these two points alone were not enough for him to meet the requirements of the Dao state. He still needed to work hard and learn from others!
When learning the Great Dao, the biggest taboo was to stick to one Dao and ignore all other thoughts and concepts. The harm of doing so was to narrow the path of one's Great Dao.
So, to learn more about others' Dao was very beneficial. To a Swordsman like him, where could he find so many who were willing to teach him wholeheartedly? They could only do so through battle! Fighting non-stop! Learn from your opponent.
He would complete his plan while completing his own cultivation. Integrating his cultivation into his mission was also his specialty!
The Great Dao of Reincarnation was a Great Dao that needed to be refined by him. Encountering Pu Song was also his luck. Of course, he could not use it. He used the Merit and Impermanence that he was most familiar with to break through the situation. He would persevere for as long as he could, and while persevering, he would understand the results of other people's reincarnation.
In the Six Paths of Reincarnation, he was always in the Heaven, Man, and Demonic God, but he never entered the Hell, Hungry Ghost, or Beast Path …
The Six Paths of Reincarnation Killing Technique required the opponent to go through the six paths of reincarnation. Otherwise, the technique would be incomplete. This was a unique characteristic of battles between Dao Realm cultivators.
Among the onlookers, the experts saw the artistry while the laymen saw the excitement. However, there were few Buddhists who did not know about the cycle of reincarnation. They might not be as specialized as Pu Song, but they had a general insight. They could tell that although Swordsman was in a passive situation, he was still far from being in danger.
"This person has some foundation in Samsara, but it's far from enough to win! He would definitely use other Dao Realm cultivators to help him, but I can't think of what he would use. Do any of you have any idea? "Higan asked.
Everyone shook their heads. There were a few Great Daos that could counter the cycle of reincarnation. For example, breaking through the Merit and Virtue would prevent reincarnation; breaking through the Nirvana would prevent reincarnation; breaking through the Impermanence would disrupt the cycle of reincarnation … There were many ways.
However, this Swordsman's method was very strange. He only went back and forth between the Heaven, Man, and Demonic God Paths. It was a very childish method. The display of the Tao Realm didn't mean that you would never be able to go to hell or become an animal just because you were in the upper three realms of the Six Realms. This was just a concept. The key was the power of the Six Realms as a whole.
It was not completely meaningless. At least, the Swordsman's transformation between the Heaven, Man, and Demonic God Paths in the Dao Realm made Pu Song feel uncomfortable. It was as if something strange was stuffed into his body during this process!
Something that no one could recognize!
Life was under the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The power of Dao Realm was to compress this process into a very short period of time. In a real battle, your opponent would not allow you to do this. However, if it was a competition of pure Dao Realm, everything was possible.
Using other Buddhist Daos to counter the Swordsman's Path was the main topic. If they were to use the Dao of Reincarnation to counter the Swordsman, they would have to compete with their understanding of the Dao. For Lou Xiaoyi's situation, this was a little unwise. However, he did it, and it made everyone suspicious.
How could a famous swordsman in the universe, who had never tasted defeat, make such an obvious mistake?
Although they were suspicious, Pu Song did not stop his evolution of Dao Realm. After some time, the Swordsman finally entered the Fourth Path, the Path of Hell!
He saw hope, but he was also confused. Because in his Six Paths of Reincarnation, the sluggish feeling became more and more obvious. As a Great Buddha, he knew very well that this meant something terrible. He could not see through his opponent's methods, and this was a very dangerous situation in a competition.
Should he continue evolving the Six Paths of Reincarnation, or wait a little longer to see it clearly?
Just as he was hesitating, the Swordsman seemed to have made a mistake in the confrontation. The Path of Hungry Ghost and the Path of Livestock were also successfully evolved. In an instant, the Swordsman's figure had been reincarnated once in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. No, there seemed to be another Path added. There was an inexplicable seventh Path that might or might not exist.
The system collapsed! This was a denial of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The Six Paths of Reincarnation became the Seven Paths. Did this mean that his thousands of years of effort were all wrong?
Pu Song's Dao Realm collapsed, but his body was not injured. However, he was injured because of his confusion towards the Dao!
His face was pale, and his mind was in a mess. He staggered back until he was out of the range of the competition. Then, he regained his composure and bowed with his palms together.
"Amazing, benefactor! This little monk was defeated, and I didn't even understand what I lost to! "
Lou Xiaoyi smiled faintly. He had gotten what he wanted and had also trained what he wanted to strengthen. This kind of Dao Realm battle was very worth it!
"It's just the Dao of creating something out of nothing!"
The monks were moved. How could there be a Dao of creating something out of nothing in this world? It was just another excuse for the Innate Dao.
Groundless!
