Chapter 1225 Seeing the Big Picture From the Small
The breakthrough of the human body is based on the Buddhist method, integrating the three paths of spirit, energy and spirit, which is extremely complicated.
The three paths of spirit, energy and spirit for human body cultivation, the power comes from the method of the ancient witch clan, and the path of energy is the method of the medieval Taoism.
As for the true scripture of the path of law, its origin is unknown. It was taught to Wu Yi by the black beetle in the past. After the practice was completed, it was the netherworld, a wild air, at least the method of the medieval or even earlier.
Wu Yi's practice is so complicated, half of it is erudition, and half of it is helpless. If he is not erudite, it is impossible to learn these different methods. If he is not from a humble background and has no one to help him, why should he practice so many methods? Wouldn't it be better to specialize in one method?
Wu Yi's growth seems to be just a small matter for him. In fact, it can also see the changes in the whole world from it. It can even be said to be a living history of the evolution of heaven and earth. Let's see the big from the small. Let's try to discuss it below.
In the ancient times, the world was born, all spirits were ignorant, and beasts were rampant. After the middle period, the strength of beasts was differentiated, and they had a preliminary understanding. According to the different habitats, they established a preliminary identity and divided into three factions, which are what people today call the three tribes, namely the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn.
The dragon tribe represents the interests of the entire scale tribe, which can also be simply regarded as the interests of the creatures in rivers, lakes and seas; the phoenix tribe represents the interests of birds; and the last unicorn tribe represents the interests of beasts.
The ancient catastrophe was the struggle between the three tribes. The three tribes expanded to the extreme, and their descendants multiplied day by day. They had to seize territory to avoid decline, so the war was born.
In the ancient catastrophe, the three tribes fought fiercely, but the final winner was not any of the three tribes, they were all losers.
At that time, the chaotic energy of heaven and earth degenerated, and the clear and turbid energy differentiated. The clear energy evolved into the Taoist ancestor, and the turbid energy evolved into the Demon Ancestor. The two of them each passed on the Taoist tradition. In the chaos, they took advantage of the situation and rose up. In the end, the Taoist ancestor killed the Demon Ancestor and exiled the Demon Ancestor. The Taoist ancestor also became the first great power in the world to achieve the Hunyuan Wuji Jinxian.
After that, it was the ancient catastrophe. At that time, the regional division was no longer valued by everyone. The clear and turbid struggle brought about by the struggle between Taoism and demons at the end of the ancient times continued and further evolved into a struggle between demons and witches. The demons had the heavenly court, and the witches occupied the earthly court. The world fought for years.
The struggle between demons and witches should be the longest one among the several great catastrophes in the heavens. The final result of the struggle between clear and turbid demons and witches was the overturning of heaven and earth, the collapse of the original world, and the dispersion into countless small worlds (relative to the original world), which is the so-called three thousand worlds.
The demons and witches shattered the original world, and the number of living beings decreased sharply, and only one in ten thousand survived. It also ended the ancient catastrophe, and the world entered the next reincarnation, which is the so-called Middle Ages.
In the Middle Ages, people might immediately think that this was a period when the human race became the mainstream of the world and the Taoist sect dominated the world. In fact, this was not the case, at least not entirely.
The emergence of Taoism was long before the war between demons and witches, but even after experiencing the long process of the ancient times, few people knew about it, and the Taoist sect would not take the initiative to participate in the catastrophe.
After the ancient catastrophe, even if both the demons and witches were injured, a lean camel was bigger than a horse. In the beginning of the Middle Ages, it can be said that it was still a continuation of the catastrophe of demons and witches.
Taoism was still a "niche group" for self-entertainment. Each Taoist Tianzun closed the door to practice, did not participate in external affairs, and occasionally talked about Taoism, purely depending on the so-called opportunity and mood.
What really led to the decline of the demon and witch clans was the change in the climate of the world, the collapse of the original world, and the countless drops in the spiritual energy level of the world. Many prehistoric beasts that were once powerful in the world could no longer reproduce. Even if they reproduced, they were worse than the previous generation and finally became ordinary people.
Because of the inertia of thinking, the cultivation methods of the two tribes have not changed much from the ancient times. Perhaps one or two pure bloods comparable to the ancient times can appear among them, but it is obvious that it is impossible to restore the prosperity of the ancient times.
The shrinkage of the tribe also means the shrinkage of power, and at this time, the human race began to come to the fore.
The timing of the emergence of the human race was actually very early. In ancient times, it was already a force that could not be underestimated and was deeply involved in the battle between demons and witches.
Because the human race supported the witches, the witches returned the favor and set the human race as the upper way in the first reincarnation, while devaluing the beasts (i.e. the demon race). Reading some ancient books, there are also stories about the human race overcoming difficulties and fighting against the demon race.
Although the current statements in the Taoist scriptures all say that the ancient god Nuwa molded the earth to create humans to achieve Taoism, that is, the human race only appeared in the Middle Ages.
The story of Nuwa creating humans should actually be understood as Nuwa molding the human race that is most suitable for survival in the new world after the collapse of the primitive world, rather than her initial creation of the human race, and the human race was born.
Nuwa created humans, laying the foundation for the world after the Middle Ages. The human race rose and became the protagonist of the world. The great fortune of the world gathered, making Nuwa the last Hunyuan Wuji Jinxian.
The human race, which was just a younger brother of the witch clan, was the most suitable environment for the new world after the original world was broken, and it did not need much spiritual energy to grow up.
Although the human race individuals were still far inferior to those great demons and witches, they took a different approach and carried forward the methods of Dan Dao, Qi Dao, and Zhen Dao, strengthened their own strength, and finally achieved a counterattack.
The counterattack of the human race mostly relied on the means of Taoism and the goodness of Taoism, so the interests of Taoism can also be regarded as the interests of the human race.
It was just that I had said before that the Dao Sect did not have many requirements for accepting disciples at the beginning. They often gave lectures wherever they went. The audience included humans and monsters. There were also monsters and witches in the Dao Sect.
Therefore, when the human race rose and threatened the interests of the monsters and witches, the monsters and witches, as old forces, wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to strangle the human race in the bud with their huge size. Of course, it was far from being a bud at this time.
In ancient times, the human race was a vassal of the witches, but now, after the human race counterattacked, the witches chose to join forces with their old rivals, the monsters, to contain the human race. It must be said that there are no eternal friends. They are all about interests.
In the Middle Ages, it seemed that there was an internal strife in the Dao Sect and a dispute between Chan and Jie, but a key point that could not be ignored was the racial dispute. It was just that because both sides joined the Dao Sect, what was manifested externally was the internal strife of the Dao Sect.
This civil strife was manifested as a dispute between the two great human dynasties, and in the upper part, Chan and Jie, each of which sent its own disciples to participate in the struggle.
This struggle has also changed. With the passage of time, the comparison of strength between the two sides has also undergone fundamental changes.
