Chapter 61: Comprehending the Way of Yin and Yang "My brother and I are cultivating in this Pure Land, but the three disciples still need to hone their skills. So it's ok to let Zhunti take care of them. But I need to tell them in advance that they can learn some skills from Zhunti, but they can't help him with anything. Otherwise, he will plot against me and I will be implicated, which is not good."Hong Yun was also thinking about it in his mind, and secretly communicated with his three disciples, and then he felt relieved. "My fellow Taoists, how about I tell you about my own insights into becoming a saint?" Zhen Yuanzi said to everyone. When everyone heard this, they naturally agreed happily. This was what they wanted to hear the most. If Zhen Yuanzi and the others talked about something else, they would not like to listen. Hong Yun also said to his three disciples: "Your realm is too low, and you cannot understand the way of the saints, but you must try your best to listen. Even if you don't understand, you must remember it, it will be useful in the future." The three disciples responded quickly. Then, the four saints Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun, Jie Yin and Zhunti began to preach in turn, and each of them preached for a hundred years. Four hundred years passed like this, and then the preaching came to an end. Although everyone was still reluctant to leave, they had no choice but to say goodbye and leave. Soon, only a few people were left in Wuzhuang Temple. Laozi, Yuanshi, Tongtian Sanqing, Nuwa, and Fuxi who accompanied Nuwa. After all, they were fellow disciples, so they should at least save face. Several of them congratulated the Four Saints again.
About to leave. At this time, Hong Yun called Nuwa and said, "Senior Sister, please stay." "Ok?" Nuwa was slightly stunned and stopped. The others did the same and looked at Hongyun. "Junior brother, is there anything else?" Nuwa asked. Hong Yun smiled and said, "I wonder how far Senior Sister's way of creation has progressed. I wonder if she can create living beings?" Hearing this, Nuwa smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay." "Then could you please help me create some living beings in this pure land? I would be very grateful." Hongyun said. Nuwa hesitated for a moment, looked at Fuxi, and when she saw Fuxi nodded, she agreed. So, Nuwa and Fuxi stayed together, while the Three Pure Ones said goodbye and left. Not long after, Jie Yin and Zhunti also left, taking Hong Yun's three disciples with them. "In fact, you, junior brothers, can also directly move some living beings from the primitive land to the Pure Heaven." Nuwa said. Hong Yun smiled and said, "With Senior Sister here, wouldn't it be better if we can help her? My brother and I also want to see Senior Sister's magical power in mediating fate." Nuwa nodded and started to create living creatures in this pure sky. The materials she used were all kinds of magical things. She was not limited to the two types of Nine Heavens Xirang and Three Lights Divine Water as described in later novels. However, the creatures created by Nuwa were all types of creatures that already existed in the ancient times. Seeing this, Hong Yun couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister, have you ever thought about creating some creatures that didn't exist in the prehistoric world?" Nuwa paused after hearing this and said, "That's not impossible." Then, Hongyun saw all kinds of strange creatures created by Nuwa, such as long snakes with many pairs of wings, horses with white wings that could fly in the air, fish with puffed up gills that could crawl on land, and so on. Hong Yun was a little confused, and Zhen Yuanzi was also confused, but Fuxi was not surprised and just shook his head and laughed.
With this episode, Hongyun stopped talking. After Nuwa created all the creatures, he thanked her again and said. Asking Nuwa to create human beings naturally meant more than just verbal thanks. Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi discussed the Dao with the two for a long time. "You two Taoist brothers have now attained the state of Hunyuan and are at peace and at ease. This is truly enviable." After discussing Taoism, Fuxi could not help but sigh. Zhen Yuanzi was brewing enlightenment tea on the side. Listen to Hongyun: "Sister Nuwa's day of enlightenment is not far away, so there is no need to say more. But fellow Taoist Fuxi, you have many karmas, and I am afraid there will be a great disaster in the future. I have something that I can give to you." As he spoke, Hongyun took out a flower. The flower was only the size of a palm, and the whole body seemed to be carved out of crystal. At first glance, it seemed crystal clear, but upon closer inspection, it felt hazy and blurry. This flower is the one that blooms on Jianmu. Each flower is a world. Within this flower, there is infinite space and countless worlds that are constantly born and destroyed. Jianmu is now vast enough to cover the entire universe, but it has only produced two world flowers. It can be seen how precious it is. Hongyun took one of them and gave it to Fuxi. This world flower flew into Fuxi's soul and disappeared. After Fuxi reacted, he first pondered the meaning of Hongyun's words, and his heart sank. Then he hurriedly thanked Hongyun. Hongyun nodded, and without saying much, he started to communicate with Fuxi about the art of formation. Hongyun's understanding of the art of formation was very profound. However, Fuxi was also an expert in formations, and when the two of them talked, they were both extremely happy and gained a lot from it. Moreover, Hong Yun not only talked about the art of formation with Fuxi, but he could also communicate with Nuwa about the art of creation. However, Hong Yun's understanding of the way of creation is far inferior to that of Nuwa. But even so, he had a good conversation with Nuwa. Zhen Yuanzi was a little embarrassed, because he didn't understand the formation, and his level of creation was about the same as Hongyun's. If it weren't for the job of making tea, Zhen Yuanzi would have been even more embarrassed. This also made Zhen Yuanzi secretly have an idea that he should learn more skills in the future. Hongyun knows how to form formations, so should he learn to make pills? Or refine weapons? Or something else? After a long time, Fuxi and Nuwa finally said goodbye and left Qingjing Heaven. Wuzhuang Temple became very quiet, with only Hongyun and Zhenyuanzi left. The two brothers looked at each other and couldn't help but smile. Zhen Yuanzi sighed, "Finally, I have achieved enlightenment. Although now I have only achieved enlightenment through merit, I have finally reached that realm. I will slowly cultivate and slay the three corpses in the future. The years are long, but there is no need to rush." Hearing this, Hong Yun also nodded and said, "Now we can be quiet, but we can't be careless." "Brother Jie Yin and Brother Zhunti are both very wise. Moreover, I have schemed against them many times, and they must be dissatisfied in their hearts. I am afraid they will scheme against us in the future and completely undermine our power in the Western Church." "Of course, we don't care about that little bit of power. We just need to be on guard against them using us to fight against other saints." "Other saints?" Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said, "Just now, my dear brother, you also said that Sister Nuwa will attain enlightenment soon. I wonder if it is true or not?" “Although I have become a saint now, my ability to deduce has greatly increased, and I can deduce most of the things in the world, but I still cannot calculate when my three brothers Sanqing and sister Nuwa will attain enlightenment.” "Of course it's true."
Hong Yun smiled and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have left Senior Sister alone to help us cleanse the living beings in the Pure Heaven. With this friendship, Senior Sister will be able to get closer to us after she attains enlightenment." "After all, our two junior brothers Jie Yin and Zhunti are not of the same mind as us and cannot be trusted, and the three senior brothers Sanqing are not easy to deal with either. Only Senior Sister Nuwa can we get along with." Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi thought about it and nodded, saying, "I don't quite understand these calculations, so I'm counting on you, Hongyun, to figure it out. I will listen to you, my foolish brother." Hearing this, Hong Yun shook his head and laughed, "Brother, you are indeed a little lazy, but that's fine, brother, you can enjoy yourself, and I will take care of the rest." The two brothers talked for a while, and then went into seclusion to practice. Hong Yun arrived at Mingdao Palace, closed the palace, sat cross-legged on the cloud bed, and with a thought, he sacrificed a ball of black and white intertwined origin. This origin is the origin of yin and yang. Hongyun beheaded the good corpse with the principle of the Five Elements, beheaded the evil corpse with the principle of the Four Symbols, and planned to behead the last self corpse with the principle of Yin and Yang. Therefore, he must first understand the principle of yin and yang. Looking at the Yin and Yang Origin floating in front of him, Hong Yun opened his mouth and inhaled, instantly sucking the entire Yin and Yang Origin into his body and began to refine it. As Hong Yun refined the origin of Yin and Yang, countless mysteries about the principles of Yin and Yang transformed into various insights and emerged in Hong Yun's mind. Hongyun went into seclusion to comprehend the principles of yin and yang. At the same time, it is said that many powerful people watched Zhen Yuanzi create the world and the Middle Thousand Worlds that existed in the chaos, and after listening to the preaching of the Four Saints, they returned to their caves. However, each and every one of them was sighing in their hearts, envious and yearning, and they all gathered their efforts. Although it was self-evident that the extra primordial purple energy that appeared after Hongjun Daozu merged with the Dao was obtained by Zhunti, who used it to become a saint. The hope of becoming a saint has been reduced a lot, but if they cannot become a saint, they can still become a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian. However, everyone still needs to practice hard.
