Chapter 39: The Way of Life and Death

"What is your Tao? What form does it take? What is used to carry your Tao? How should you use your Tao?" A familiar voice reached Long Yu's ears. Long Yu did not open his eyes, trying to figure out this problem.

Long Yu looked at the piece of ice in his spiritual consciousness, and then the purple flame below. A small piece of ice broke away from the body and fell on the purple flame. A cloud of white mist emerged from the purple flame and slowly entered the body.

My Tao is that a water droplet turns from ice into water, reaches the surface of the purple flame, and then turns into a white mist. Then it turns into a water droplet, and finally melts back into the Tao body and turns into a part of the ice Tao body. Long Yu watched the corresponding actions being repeated again and again, and Long Yu became more and more confused.

I don't know whether the water drop is the Tao, or the ice is the Tao, or the white mist is the Tao. Long Yu looked at the frozen Tao body, and followed the divine consciousness as if it was a relationship of every kind. The ice was the beginning and the end, and the purple flame of the divine consciousness was a transit point.

Long Yu looked at the changes in the water droplets. Was it the change of time? Long Yu kept thinking about himself. Long Yu thought of something. It was a cycle of life and death. Leaving the Tao body was life, and returning to the Tao body was death. On the purple flame of the divine consciousness, it was a process of life and death.

There is a rotation from life to death, and then rebirth after death. Each time, it repeats its own mission. Just like grass grows and blooms, blooming and bearing fruit and rebirth is a kind of transformation. The purple consciousness towards oneself is the process of the blooming and bearing fruit of water drops, and the ultimate goal is rebirth.

Long Yu looked at his own Tao, which was the Tao of life and death. Then what form of Tao is it? It is a process. What kind of process is it? The transformation of ice into purple flame is a sequence, and the white mist returning to the Tao body is also a sequence. The two sequences are just opposite. Long Yu guessed that his form should be the positive and negative Tao.

Life is positive, death is negative. There is a sequence of life, and when it reaches a critical point, it returns to the beginning. Long Yu figured it out, the process of water drops is like climbing a mountain, after climbing up the mountain, it is a process of going down the mountain. It is like the sun is not very hot when it just comes out, and it is the peak of the sun at noon, and then the sun goes down and it changes from very hot to a dark night without temperature.

Long Yu looked at the process of his own Dao body and spiritual power, which was a process of change, that is, time. Growth requires time, and death also requires time. Even if it is said in the book that the short-lived beauty only takes one night, it is also a process of time.

No matter how slow time is, like a star, it will eventually die. There is nothing eternal. If there is something, it is your own Tao. As long as the Tao is immortal, people will not perish. The Tao that people pursue is to break the traces of time.

The container of the Tao is a person or an object. A blood sword can be passed on to future generations. A set of skills can be written down in a book for future generations to explore the Tao. Books are not precious things, but they become precious because they are written down.

Long Yu understood that the Dao in the body needed a carrier, and his own spiritual space was a container. The Dao in Yunzhong's body was to control the Dao and put it in other containers, such as the sword of a weapon, thus forming his own weapon type of Dao.

Long Yu thought about the corresponding four questions. My Tao is the Tao of life and death, the Tao of the life and death process controlled by time. I use the spiritual space to reprint my Tao, and then use weapons to apply my Tao.

Long Yu opened his eyes and looked at Jian Chen, and quickly performed a master's salute. "Thank you, Senior Brother Jian Chen, for your guidance." Jian Chen sat cross-legged on the ground and waved his hand. "You still have a question that requires you to be practical. How can you produce your Tao?"

Long Yu was confused, "My Dao was born from that." He stood there stupidly, unable to figure out why his Dao was born. Jian Chen slapped Long Yu on the face, "I asked you to wait for me here, but I didn't expect you to run away."

Long Yu touched the place where Jian Chen had hit him. He thought Jian Chen would blame him for not being able to hit him, but he didn't expect this to be the question. Long Yu looked at Jian Chen with a wronged look on his face, "I didn't want to leave either, but if I didn't leave, the chimpanzee would kill me."

Jian Chen looked at Long Yu with an angry look, "You don't even know how many taels you have, and you're learning so many things everywhere. You first master one thing, and then learn the others. You want everything. There are countless Kung Fu in the world, how many can you learn?"

Long Yu touched the back of his head and said, "It's not a problem to have too many skills. Besides, I just entered the outer chamber and someone used illusion to control my mind, so I want to learn other things."

Jian Chen slapped Long Yudi in the face with his backhand, "You want to learn illusion today, and tomorrow you meet a poison master. Do you want to learn to be an alchemist and a poison master? You have to remember what is suitable for you and what is not suitable for you."

Long Yu touched the back of his head and sat on the ground paralyzed. "Next time I meet an illusionist, I will be destroyed in no time." Jian Chen looked at Long Yu's appearance, who looked like he was not doing well. He turned around and looked into the distance. "No matter what the situation is, you must stick to your path first. No matter who you meet, as long as you believe in yourself, you can break other people's attacks."

Jian Chen turned around and sat in front of Long Yudi. "Everything is inseparable from the Tao. Everyone is competing to see how far their Tao can go. You don't need to learn other miscellaneous things everywhere. First establish a major, then a minor. You are learning the formation to complete your own sword path. What you need to build a sword formation is what you learn."

Long Yu jumped up. What Jian Chen said made sense. The sword formation expressed his swordsmanship. At the same time, perfecting the sword formation was what he needed. He could rely on the piano to control the sword formation. His own sword formation could fight the enemy like an army.

And each sword in the sword formation needs to be forged and runed by oneself, and it also requires an eye that can see through the enemy's falsehood to fight against the enemy. Long Yu gave Jian Chen a master's salute, "Thank you for your guidance, senior brother, I clearly know how to proceed next."

Jian Chen looked at Long Yu and shook his head, "What is your Tao?" "The Tao of life and death, the Tao of life and death in the cycle of time." Long Yu looked at Jian Chen with a proud look on his face. Jian Chen patted Long Yu's shoulder, "What do you think time is, and what is the difference between time."

Long Yu fell into deep thought, and suddenly looked at Jian Chen with a smile on his face. He was kicked by Jian Chen to another mountain peak, and landed on a fury land. The sky was full of dark clouds, and Long Yu smiled and looked at the calamity in the sky.

The first body of the Tao calamity struck Long Yudi, and Long Yudi directly guided it into the Tao consciousness. The thunder was originally very fast, but when it entered Long Yudi's consciousness, it became much slower. The thunder directly struck the Tao body, as if carving the Tao body.

Long Yu watched the second thunderbolt enter, also very slowly striking the body. Long Yu quietly watched the thunderbolts strike the body one after another. If someone passed by, they would definitely envy Long Yu.

While others were in a state of embarrassment during the tribulation, Long Yu was enjoying the fruits of his labor, watching the ninth tribulation in the sky end. Long Yu looked at the Dao body in his consciousness, and a figure appeared. Long Yu saw that the figure was his own ice sculpture. Enjoying the bath of the tribulation, Long Yu smiled at the ice sculpture, as if the ice sculpture was also smiling at him.

Long Yu sat cross-legged on the ice sculpture, and two swords were circling behind it. The thunder on the ice sculpture slowly receded, and Long Yu opened his eyes and looked at a stone on the mountain in the distance. He pointed lightly, and two swords appeared from his fingers, circling each other and flying towards the stone like lightning. Long Yu then sent out two more swords from his fingers, at an extremely slow speed, as if they had not moved at all.

Long Yu looked at the two sword energies in front of him and smiled at the sky. Time can be fast or slow, but it can be referenced by something. Long Yu chose to use the sky and the earth as a reference. The fastest speed is one second and can directly hit a distance of 100 meters. Long Yu looked at the location of the stone, which was exactly 3,000 meters away.

The two swords that were the fastest just now took thirty seconds, while the sword in front of him would take fifteen days and nights, that is, thirty days. Long Yu looked at the ice sculpture in his consciousness, which seemed to be integrated, but in fact, the ice was melting rapidly and solidifying. It was so fast that it took once a second.

Long Yu looked at his tattered clothes, flew directly to the mountain where Jian Chen was, and saluted Jian Chen. "Thank you for your guidance, brother." Jian Chen looked at Long Yu with a happy face, "The next road is yours to walk, no one can help you anymore, remember, whether you choose to meditate and continue to understand the Tao, or go down the mountain to test the Tao. Everything depends on yourself, life and death, no one else can help you."

Long Yu somewhat understood what Jian Chen meant, but also somewhat did not understand. "Brother, is there any difference between meditation and the lower test of the Tao?" Jian Chen was about to slap Long Yu in the face, and his body stepped back.

Long Yu saw Jian Chen's speed slow down, but his own speed did not increase. It was as if both of them were in slow motion, but Long Yu was still hit in the face. "The Tao is good, but you can't keep up. Going down the mountain to test the Tao is to travel and experience, and you will encounter many things. The benefit of going down the mountain is to experience others and compare the difference between your Tao and others. Meditation is to concentrate on understanding your own Tao, and to close yourself off from the world."

Jian Chen walked to the edge of the mountain and looked at the crowd below. "Look at our Divine Sword Pavilion. Why do we have so many places to choose from? There are more places for trials than places for meditation." Long Yu walked to Jian Chen and looked at the crowd below.

"I don't quite understand, and I don't know what this means." Jian Chen reached out to pat Long Yu on the shoulder. Long Yu subconsciously stepped aside, fearing that Jian Chen would slap him again, which was not a fun thing to do.

"When you go down the mountain, you will meet your friends, even your true love, but you will also meet your enemies. Meditation and retreat are a way for a person to enjoy the path he or she is pursuing. You think that is more fun."

Long Yu touched the back of his head. He had indeed met the fat man Lan Shou on the road. He had taken Lu Er in, and now she was his secret crush. Long Yu looked at Jian Chen, as if it was difficult to choose. He hesitated for a moment, "I want to go down the mountain to find someone who is like Wen Bingbing."

Jian Chen patted Long Yu's shoulder and said, "Let's go down the mountain. The training will be slower during the training period, but it's very exciting down the mountain." Jian Chen turned around and glanced at the peach tree. "The person you mentioned should be in seclusion."
