Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 414: A Little Surprise After the Banquet
Although the ginseng fruit is delicious, most people only eat it for a short while.
Even if a Taoist attains enlightenment after eating it for the first time, it is accomplished in an instant, which is called sudden enlightenment.
"This fruit, fellow Daoist, is truly amazing!"
The saints were polite. They ate other people's fruits and gained benefits, so naturally they couldn't help but praise them.
Zhen Yuanzi also stroked his beard and smiled, "I hope my fruit didn't disappoint you fellow Taoists."
All the immortals inside and outside the hall smiled and thanked him repeatedly.
"After tasting the spiritual fruit, how about we discuss the Dao?"
Zhen Yuanzi made the suggestion, and everyone was very interested. They looked at the six saints with sincere eyes and invited them together.
The saint smiled and nodded, showing great respect.
"Brother, come first!"
Yuanshi Tianzun said.
Laozi nodded, and the auspicious clouds above his head extended, and the chaos became Tai Chi again. A volume of the Tao Te Ching slowly spoke, adding three points of tranquility to Wuzhuang Temple. Then the Heavenly Venerable spoke, the three flowers performed infinite wonders, and the auspicious clouds manifested the power of the heavens. He told everyone the magnificent will of heaven.
The Sage Tongtian told a passage from the Lingbao Sutra. After listening to his narration, the Taoists had a deeper understanding of the glimmer of hope.
Goddess Nuwa told the immortals a story about creation. The true meaning of creation and nurturing of all living things flowed in everyone's heart like a clear spring.
The guiding sage talks about compassion. The world is contained in the Three Thousand Great Dreams, and all living beings are contained in the Pure Land. Even those as small as ants are in the eyes of the sage and in the heart of the sage.
After hearing this, the Taoists were deeply moved.
The sage Cundi preached about the door of convenience. The vision was magnificent, with golden lotus flowers and cherries all over the ground. He picked up flowers and smiled. The ideas of eight hundred side doors were described, which refreshed the ears and minds of the immortals.
Six saints, six great ways, the immortals inside and outside the hall were fascinated by what they heard. This was the first time for them to come into such direct contact with saints and the saints' great ways.
The immortals in the East discovered that the two saints in the West were not as scary as the rumors said.
Especially the immortals outside the temple, their perception of the two saints from the West has really changed a lot.
The compassion of the Taoist Master Jie Yin and the convenient door of the Bodhisattva Cundi really touched their hearts.
Mingyu was also listening attentively. The saint's teachings were not profound. After all, there were not many saints present, and even fewer people who could understand what he said in depth.
But it is absolutely refined, with Lao Tzu's purity, Yuanshi's majesty, Tongtian's straightforwardness, the Goddess's gentleness, Jie Yin's compassion, and Zhunti's wisdom!
Mingyu looked at Zhunti with a complicated look in her eyes, "I didn't expect that the eight hundred side doors have been so perfected. It's really hard for this person."
The Western Land is barren, lacking in spiritual energy , and sparsely populated with living creatures. Under such conditions, it can be said that the great road to the West is almost cut off by half.
But these two never gave up their old oath, and they were determined to turn every inch of scorched earth into pure land. The emergence of eight hundred side doors forcibly opened up a new path for the Western world!
For this one reason alone, he is worthy of the title of saint!
The Four Saints of the East were also looking at Zhunti. Regardless of their positions, they also admired this person very much.
No wonder the teacher once said that he had great wisdom, great perseverance and great compassion!
After the six saints finished speaking, the immortals digested their thoughts quietly for a while and then bowed to thank the saints.
Taoist Tongtian looked at Zhen Yuanzi and asked with a smile: "Daoyou Zhenyuan, since this is a meeting of earthly immortal fruits, we can't just talk about it. As the ancestor of earthly immortals, don't you plan to talk about earthly immortal fruits?"
The immortals nodded: "That's right, that's right. How can we not listen to the earthly immortal fruits when we come to participate in the earthly immortal fruit meeting? It's your turn to speak, Taoist Zhenyuan!"
Zhen Yuanzi did not refuse, he agreed and started to talk about the Taoist fruits of earthly immortals.
He spoke in great detail, explaining the relationship between earth immortals and the underground tunnels, the earth, and the earth veins very thoroughly.
There is a very important point in holding this Earth Immortal Fruit Conference, which is to let the immortals understand the kindness of the earth immortals and know the merits of the earth immortals. In this way, they will be much less afraid of the earth immortals, and they will be more tolerant when the earth immortals are active in the major earth veins.
Sure enough, as the way of earthly immortals was explained one by one, the great powers in the hall were obviously relieved. Previously, the earthly immortals expanded too fast, and they could not help but have some bad guesses. Now that they heard that the other party was working for the earthly way, and even the heavenly way was implicitly supporting it, it was understandable.
The resistance of the saints was suddenly reduced a lot.
After Zhen Yuanzi finished speaking, he let others speak.
The ancestors and powerful men in the hall talked about their own principles one after another.
Mingyu also talked about it. He did not talk about life or yin and yang. Instead, he talked about a method of blessing. Mainly talking about how to accumulate blessings and how to seek welfare for all living beings.
The six saints nodded one after another, and the immortals seemed to be thinking about something.
They thought of the previous series of events.
By the time everyone had finished speaking, the Earthly Immortal Fruit Conference was almost coming to an end.
While the Six Saints were still there, Mingyu quietly stepped on Minghe, and Minghe immediately understood. He winked at Zhen Yuanzi.
Zhen Yuanzi nodded imperceptibly, and then said to everyone: "Thank you all for coming to the conference. Now that the conference is about to end, I have also prepared a small gift for everyone. I hope you will not despise it."
And this surprise?
Those who were planning to say goodbye held back and were full of curiosity about Zhen Yuanzi's gift.
Zhen Yuanzi waved his whisk lightly, and jade plates of various sizes appeared on everyone's table. The objects on the jade plates were covered by a silk handkerchief and could not be seen clearly. The same was true for the powerful man.
All Golden Immortals and above have it. The patterns on the jade plate are different depending on the level of cultivation.
Saints have them too!
When Nuwa saw this, she smiled.
She put the "gift" away.
"Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan, this gift is very good, please accept it well!"
Tongtian also nodded: "It will benefit everyone, Taoist Zhenyuan is thoughtful."
Saint Laozi glanced at Mingyu and said nothing.
Tianzun and the Two Saints of the West put away their "gifts" in silence, and could not help laughing.
He secretly thought that Nuwa and Tongtian were not kind enough to actually take the initiative to cooperate with Mingyu and the others in acting.
The crowd didn't understand why, but they were all very happy. Even the saint said it was good, so how bad could it be?
They did not check it immediately as that would be impolite, so they put it in their sleeves like a treasure and planned to go back and see what it was.
The ancestor Pan Wang in the corner looked at this "gift" and was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had some guesses in his mind, but since the saint had endorsed it, how could he dare to say it out loud? He quickly put it away.
The old monster next to him was still hesitant at first, but when he saw King Pan's movements were so agile, he immediately used his sleeve to hold back his share, as if he was afraid that it would be snatched away by others.
"Hold it tight, don't drop it!"
King Pan reminded with a smile.
"Of course!"
Perhaps it was because King Pan's gaze was too strange, the old monster tightened his sleeves and looked at him warily.
When Mingyu saw that everyone accepted this "surprise", she immediately smiled.
He looked at Nuwa and Tongtian with gratitude.
"Keep it to yourself, don't make too much noise."
This is Nuwa’s reminder.
Tongtian sent a voice: "This contract is a good thing, implement it as soon as possible!"
" Mingyu is the first disciple of my Xuanmen of the third generation. You can come to Yuxu more often and hang out with the other fellow disciples." Tianzun felt that he was a bit troublesome, but he could really earn merit from it.
If this new contract is promoted, it will bring tremendous merit!
"The gate of Lingshan is always open to you!"
The two saints sent a message, asking him to visit the Western Land more often.
Putting aside some grudges, they have been coveting Mingyu for a long time!
Mingyu remained silent.
Until a light voice fell into his ears.
" How about you take charge of the world in the next era?"
Mingyu was stunned.
