Buddha is the Tao

Compared with the Shushan Cave Heaven or Zhou Qing's underwater fairy house, this Da Zizai Palace Cave Heaven is quite interesting. Although there are also continuous green mountains, flying fairy birds, and hundreds of towering mountains, they are clearly divided. Dozens of mountains in the east are covered by a thin layer of colored glass light, and there are countless exotic flowers and magical medicines inside. Zhou Qing even saw a few purple Ganoderma lucidum the size of a washbasin. The thick Polygonatum sibiricum is twisted under the stone slab beside the flowing spring. There are also big red trees growing on the cliffs, which are full of red fruits. There are also some long insects that look like snakes but not snakes, like dragons and flying dragons guarding them. They are covered with white scales and have crystal horns on their heads. Zhou Qing secretly admires them.

The other three areas do not have any spiritual medicine planted, but are all about scenery, each with its own uniqueness. Some mountains are rocky and craggy, piercing the sky, while others are ancient trees, waterfalls, stone bridges, and countless yellow sheep, elks, and foxes with fiery red skins drink water at the foot of the mountain. In addition, most mountains are full of colorful flowers, colorful and colorful butterflies the size of bowls are flying. Some mountaintops are all covered with gray-green mugwort. When the breeze blows, the fragrance of the mugwort with a slight medicinal flavor comes to your face, which is very pleasant. There are fat jade rabbits rolling among the green grass. There are more natural scenery on earth, less ethereal and more human.

"Well, the Taoist Cihang who opened up the cave of Da Zizai Palace is really human, unlike the caves opened up by other immortals, which are full of immortality. Even the flowers and other things are made of crystal jade, which lacks some vitality." Zhou Qing saw the hilltop full of flowers. From time to time, two or three girls in palace costumes picked flowers and put them on their heads for fun. Knowing that they were all disciples of Da Zizai Palace, he secretly envied them.

"In this cave of the Great Freedom Palace, you can practice Taoism and live forever, and you can also feel the joy of the world. There is neither the cold and pure practice of immortals nor the filthy world. It is like an immortal but not an immortal, like a layman but not a layman. It has its own strengths and is deeply loved by me. This Taoist Cihang is really brilliant! No wonder all his disciples have such cultivation, but they have no distractions in their hearts, and they do not strive to improve themselves. They are happy and content, which is in line with the essence of the Tao of Heaven's inaction."

Zhou Qing saw these girls playing in the flowers, and he suddenly felt emotional. At this time, Yunxia Fairy and Neon, Colorful, and other sisters said something. They were all childish. They picked some small flowers and plants, made them into wreaths, and wore them on their heads. They played and played with each other. They did not look like cultivators with profound cultivation at all. They were innocent, just like a group of girls.

"Husband, please take a quick look. Do I look good like this?"

Fairy Yunxia was playing with a few sisters for a while. Fairy Qicai, Fairy Neon and other girls looked at Zhou Qing. It was unknown what they said. Fairy Yunxia's face was flushed. She chased the girls around the pavilion. Just when she saw Zhou Qing coming out, she quickly listened to his footsteps and said to Zhou Qing with a smile.

Fairy Yunxia's face was flushed and she smiled like a flower. Zhou Qing suddenly felt strange in his heart. He didn't know what it felt like. Zhou Qing had always been practicing Taoism and killing to improve his strength. The worldly emotions had long been indifferent. The human emotions also gradually disappeared. He killed decisively without any scruples. Today, he suddenly looked at the girls of Dazizai Palace. A long-lost worldly feeling came to his heart again. All kinds of feelings came to his heart. The inner demon was ready to move. The karma that had been condensed in the Dharma body for a long time actually had a tendency to escape.

"Not good!" Zhou Qing was shocked, knowing that his heart was shaken just now, which directly affected the solidification of the golden body. If the golden body collapsed, the karma would be released and invaded into his own life relics, and his consciousness would be polluted by the karma. Then he would fall into the six reincarnations and never be reborn.

Without caring about Fairy Yunxia, ​​Zhou Qing waved his hand, and the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree was offered above his head. The seven-colored glazed light on the treasure tree shone brightly, illuminating his whole body. Zhou Qing pinched the seal with both hands, and the golden light flashed, revealing this Dharma body. The bowl-sized relic on his head was dim, far less bright than before. There was a faint black air flowing on the golden body between the Dharma bodies. It was the condensed and integrated karma. Because the heart of Tao was not condensed, it took off the suppression of the relic and scattered the law. Fortunately, Zhou Qing realized it in time and silently used the mysterious skills to suppress it. Otherwise, the karma would spread out, and not only himself, but also the women in the cave heaven of the Great Freedom Palace would end up not being reborn. It was really terrifying.

"Ah!" Lan Shen was beside Zhou Qing, and had no idea that Zhou Qing suddenly attacked. His Dharma body appeared, and a powerful force that could resist him rushed him out of the pavilion. He rolled over and over, and finally fell into a bunch of flowers, crushing a large area of ​​flowers and plants. He climbed up with a look of horror on his face. Zhou Qing had left a mark in his soul. If Zhou Qing had any accident, he would have to follow in his footsteps. Lan Shen could only pray secretly, hoping that Zhou Qing would not get into trouble.

Fairy Yunxia didn't know what was going on, and was sent out of the pavilion by a gentle force. Fortunately, Zhou Qing kept a trace of consciousness at the critical moment and did not hurt Yunxia.

"Husband, what's wrong with you!" Fairy Yunxia saw such an abnormal situation suddenly, and knew that the situation was not good. She couldn't help crying, but unfortunately, the pavilion was shining with precious light and guarded by the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree. No matter how high your Taoism was, you couldn't get close to it. You couldn't even see a shadow or see anything at all.

"Don't worry, sister. My brother-in-law has his own magical powers and is protected by a rare treasure. There must be no problem. He must have had a problem with his training and is adjusting his breathing. It's a pity that the master is in seclusion, otherwise he would not be able to see the situation." The Seven-Colored Fairy had dealt with Zhou Qing before, and had some feelings. As the saying goes, a bystander sees more clearly. Compared with Yunxia, ​​who was anxious and lost her mind, the Seven-Colored Fairy was more sober. Neon, Caixia, and other sisters looked at each other. They naturally didn't know what happened. Seeing Yunxia crying, they hurried to comfort her.

Lan Shen looked very ugly on the side, with waves surging in his heart. He walked back and forth, trampled down a piece of flowers and plants, and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Yunxia, ​​don't cry! Your husband is a blessed man, nothing will happen to him. You stay aside and calm your mind. If you panic and hurt your soul, you will ruin your foundation!" A clear Buddhist chant suddenly sounded in the main hall among the many palaces floating on the top of the mountain in the distance. Auspicious clouds floated out, and a young girl slowly came on the clouds.

This clear sound was like a spring, washing away the dirt and making people calm. Yunxia calmed down a lot when she heard the voice. When she looked up, she saw the girl coming on the cloud. She rushed over and called her master. Qicai, Nihong and other women also bowed to her. Seeing that something unusual happened here, some disciples of Zizai Palace who were playing in the distance also rushed to the front with flying swords. Seeing the young girl, they also bowed to her and called her the palace master.

Lan Shen was so nervous that he didn't notice anything. He only came back to his senses when he heard the clear voice. He looked at the master of the Great Freedom Palace who came on the cloud. The master was wearing a black robe, with long hair on her head. Her face was extraordinary and holy. She even overshadowed the appearance of all the women present. At first glance, she looked like a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, but after a closer look, it seemed that she was not. It was really hard to tell.

Lan Shen had a high level of cultivation. After calming down, he realized that the cultivation of the master was not far from his own, and was even higher than some casual cultivators in the sea, such as the old Taoist Ji Yin and the old nun Wu Zhen. However, Lan Shen was attracted by the things in the hands of the master of the Freedom Palace and did not pay too much attention to her cultivation method.

The master of Zizai Palace held a willow branch in his hand, and there were a few willow leaves dotted on the branch, which were green and tender, as if they had just been picked from the tree. With Lan Shen's cultivation, he could not feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy, as if it was really a willow branch. Lan Shen's current cultivation was only chasing the heyday of the past, and his mind felt super strong. He vaguely knew that this willow branch was not ordinary, but the master of Zizai Palace was the master of Fairy Yunxia, ​​so Lan Shen certainly did not dare to offend him and used his mind to carefully investigate.

"Master, what happened to my husband?" Fairy Yunxia hurriedly pulled the hand of the master of Zizai Palace, still looking very anxious.

"My master was in seclusion, and suddenly felt something unusual, so I broke out of seclusion. Besides, your husband's cultivation and magical powers are still higher than my master's. How can I know, but I just used Zhoutian Yishu to make a divination, and it was calculated that there was nothing wrong, you can rest assured." Seeing the bright light in the pavilion, the master of Zizai Palace could not see any clues.

The Zhoutian Yishu divination method of the Master of Zizai Palace is very subtle and profound. In the impression of Fairy Yunxia, ​​it has never made any mistakes. Fairy Yunxia heard it and put half of her mind at ease, staring at the pavilion closely.

"What a fool, but he is a blessed person. When one person gets the Tao, the whole family will rise to heaven. I am afraid that my apprentice's future achievements will be higher than mine. Everyone has their own fate, and the will of heaven is far away, but it cannot be forced at all!" The Master of Zizai Palace sighed secretly in his heart.

After a while, the precious light in the pavilion suddenly withdrew, and was instantly covered by flames in the shape of red lotuses.

"Oh no, this is the red lotus karma fire, even the gods can't escape it. Is there something wrong with my divination? There is no reason?" The Master of Zizai Palace saw the red lotus-shaped flame, his face changed drastically, and he blurted out.

Fairy Yunxia was even more nervous when she saw her master was surprised. She had also seen this red lotus fire. Zhou Qing used it to scare the [***] lama, but it was fake that time. There was no karma in it. Zhou Qing also told her about the power of this fire. Now her cultivation has greatly improved, and her knowledge has also increased. She knows that this is the real fire. Seeing Zhou Qing deep in it and being burned by the fire, she was immediately at a loss.

The master of Zizai Palace hurriedly called away the disciples present. With a willow branch in his hand, a thin and transparent cloud of smoke and rain covered the pavilion hazily. He even pulled Yunxia and other girls away. She was afraid that the fire in the pavilion would explode. If she was touched by the fire, all her hard work in that life would be wasted.

Seeing that her master had no idea, Fairy Yunxia was even more horrified. She gritted her teeth, shook off the hand of Master Zizai, and rushed towards the pavilion. With Zhou Qing's help, Fairy Yunxia's skills and skills had greatly improved, and she was not far behind Master Zizai. With the sudden appearance, Master Zizai could not catch her, and they all shouted in surprise.

"Come back, Yunxia, ​​you are going to die!" Seeing that Fairy Yunxia was about to rush into the pavilion in the blink of an eye, Master Zizai brushed the willow branches again, and the smoke, clouds, rain and dew shrouded outside blocked in front of her, blocking Yunxia. Yunxia was about to cast a spell to break it, but suddenly heard Zhou Qing laughing a few times at the fire of karma, and hurriedly stopped. Knowing that Zhou Qing was not in trouble, she turned from anxiety to joy, and saw Zhou Qing holding the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, and the golden body behind him disappeared. Wherever he went, the fire of karma drilled into his body, and he was not hurt at all. After Zhou Qing finished laughing, he sang out of the fire of karma.

The song goes: People once drilled into the fire, refined their bodies to become saints and merged with the innocence of nature. Now my Tao is better. The fire of karma forges the soul and returns to the truth. Burn away all the dust and dirt, and return to the original body without damage.

At this point, Zhou Qing got rid of his inner demons, burned all the dust and dirt, and finally condensed his golden body again. He was only one step away from becoming a celestial immortal and entering the realm of immortals who practice emptiness and merge with the Tao. In terms of power and Taoism alone, there is no rival in the world.

"It seems that it's time. I can't go in anymore. Once the things here are done, I will go to the underworld to check the life and death book, so as not to attract attention at that time, which will be troublesome." Zhou Qing thought secretly.

Seeing that Zhou Qing was fine and his Taoism had greatly increased, Lan Shen also breathed a sigh of relief and quietly disappeared into the void.

"It's good that nothing happened, it's good that nothing happened!" When Fairy Yunxia saw Zhou Qing coming out, she threw herself into his arms and started crying. Zhou Qing had no choice but to let her do what she wanted. After a long while, Fairy Yunxia realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly took off her clothes and whispered to Zhou Qing: "Why don't you go and see my master!"

Zhou Qing followed his words and bowed to the Master of Zizai Palace, treating him as a junior. The Master of Zizai Palace was so flustered that she quickly returned the greeting and said: "I dare not, since we are Taoist friends, there is no difference between superior and inferior, just be friends of the same generation." Then she disappeared the mist and jade dew, walked into the pavilion with the other women, and sat down one after another. After a while, a disciple served each of them a cup of tea.

The Master of Zizai Palace looked at the branch in Zhou Qing's hand, with some doubts in her eyes. Just as she was about to ask, suddenly the sword energy whistled and two women fell outside the pavilion. They were also wearing palace clothes. They were all overjoyed to see Zhou Qing. They were Zhou Qing's two fox sister apprentices.

"Master!" The little fox Zhou Can rushed to Zhou Qing and started to act like a spoiled child. Zhou Chen had seen the Zizai Palace Master and the Seven-Colored Fairy and other girls, and sat down next to Zhou Qing. He also saw that the Yunxia Fairy and Zhou Qing were very close, and his face couldn't help but look a little unnatural.
