The Monkey King

Chapter 353: What is the Way of Heaven?

In the majestic hall, only the rich voice of the "Yuanshi Tianzun" in the center echoed.

What he expounded was only some superficial knowledge about the direction of enlightenment, but he explained it in a simple and profound way, and also gave another insight. All the immortals in the hall listened with great interest.

Beside the fence on the third floor, the monkey was sitting upright, his face turned sideways, making eye contact with the young immortal. One had an expressionless face, and the other had a smile on his face, both looking at the other person carefully.

This immortal family looks to be only in his thirties, with a handsome face. He wears a first-grade crane crown and a gray-black misty rain robe. From the collar, you can see the golden silk threads on the upper corners of the lining. Speaking of which, they are not much different from the ordinary immortals in heaven, but there is an extraordinary indifference in their movements.

Being so close, even with the monkey's level of cultivation, he was unable to see clearly the reality of the other party.

After a long time, a smile slowly appeared on the monkey's face, and he said: "I wonder why Yuanshi Tianzun sends out invitations widely and doesn't come out to give a lecture in person. It turns out that he is here."

Hearing this, the immortal smiled faintly and said, "The Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain has arrived, how could I not come out to greet him personally?"

This is considered an admission.

"Tianzun's words are serious." Monkey looked at the other party thoughtfully and said slowly: "However, it is not right for the title 'Monkey King' to come from the mouth of Yuanshi Tianzun. You should call me Bima Wen."

"Bima Wen?" Yuanshi Tianzun waved his hand and said with a smile: "That is just a false title. The Monkey King is the one who holds the most power. Now all the monsters in the world respect you as the king, and you can only follow your lead." It's not too much to call him the 'King of Demons'. My unworthy disciple and female disciple have served under you for many years. I still don't know anything about it. Speaking of which, I'm really ashamed."

The corners of the monkey's eyes trembled slightly.

He is talking about Yang Chan and Master Yuding. If you even know this, then your own details have naturally been revealed.

Of course, if this were not the case, how could the dignified Yuanshi Tianzun quietly sit next to his monster monkey and chat with him?

After regaining his composure, Monkey raised the corners of his mouth slightly and avoided the original topic. He opened his mouth and said, "I don't know if Yuanshi Tianzun condescended to receive me. What advice can you give me?"

Yuanshi Tianzun took a deep breath, turned his face and looked straight ahead, and said slowly: "I don't dare to take advice as advice. I just accidentally understood something, so I specially set up this lecture to attract the Monkey King. It's better to ask in person."

Monkey suddenly understood three points in his heart, and turned his face to look straight ahead, and said casually: "That's really a thank you for Yuanshi Tianzun's trouble. I don't know what Tianzun wants to ask. What is it?"

"I just want to ask you face to face, Monkey King. Do you want to follow the original path, or find another one?"

"I don't understand what I'm talking about."

"Oh?" Yuanshi Tianzun smiled faintly and said: "It is right to be cautious. However...it has been nearly fifty days since the changes in heaven, and nearly fifty years have passed in the mortal world. But in heaven, there are few changes. People know. Does the Monkey King know why?"

The monkey didn't answer, only a pair of eyes quietly tilted towards the other person, carefully watching the changes in the other person's expression.

Yuanshi Tianzun pursed his lips, and then said: "To understand the reason, we must first start with the cultivation of heaven. Monkey King, are you interested in listening?"

The monkey took a deep breath, looked at the fake Yuanshi Tianzun in the middle, and sighed: "It doesn't hurt to listen."

It turns out that today’s real lesson is here.

Opening his mouth slightly, Yuanshi Tianzun said slowly: "The way of heaven refers to two things. The first one refers to the trajectory of all things in the world. Everything in the three realms is within the way of heaven, and there is no one who is transcendent. The second one refers to the fifth level of cultivation of Taoism and the third level of cultivation of Buddhism. Among the three realms, the only ones who have cultivated the cultivation of heaven are Taishang Laojun and Tathagata Buddha. This level of cultivation is The reason why it is called the 'Dao of Heaven' is because it represents the true meaning of being infinitely close to the 'Tao'. What Laojun understands is 'inaction', and what the Tathagata understands is 'selflessness'. The Monkey King can know that this 'inaction' is related to What’s the difference between ‘no self’?”

"explain."

“Let’s talk about ‘no-self’ first. ‘No-self’ means no self and no things, based on emptiness, neither birth nor death. Its original meaning is nothingness.”

"Nothingness?" The monkey was slightly taken aback and laughed: "It's already 'nothingness'. Doesn't that mean it's invincible?"

"Not really." Yuanshi Tianzun pursed his lips and shook his head slowly, saying: "What restrains it is 'inaction'. 'Inaction' means doing everything and taking advantage of the situation. The day when Laojun cultivates 'inaction', that's the way of heaven. The stone' was born. With the help of the 'Tiandao Stone', Laojun knows everything and knows the past and the future. Everything in the three realms is all under his calculation. In this way, you should understand why for these ten thousand years, there is only Tathagata between heaven and earth. Can one person cultivate the way of heaven?"

After saying that, Yuanshi Tianzun burst into laughter, which made the monkey puzzled for a while.

Suddenly, the monkey's eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately understood the meaning of this.

What Yuanshi Tianzun wants to say is that the Supreme Being knows the past and the future, so he naturally knows who will cultivate the way of heaven. The reason why Tathagata Buddha can still cultivate "selflessness" under such circumstances is not because Tathagata is powerful, but because Tathagata is powerful. Because "selflessness" itself is restrained by "inaction", there is nothing to fear...

As for how many people could have succeeded in cultivation but later failed to do so, it is unclear.

Think about it, assuming that according to the trajectory, someone can achieve heavenly cultivation in a thousand years. If the Supreme Master doesn't want to, he will have countless opportunities in a thousand years, and he can change this result with just a little fiddling.

Perhaps it was not until this moment that Monkey truly realized how terrifying the Taishang was in his heyday.

What kind of situation can the so-called "inaction" achieve?

Knowing the past and the future is just an appearance. Its real power is that it can make the three realms evolve according to its own wishes. Nothing bad will happen to you. Whatever you do, you already know the result. With just a little fiddling, tens of millions of years later, the accumulation of infinite cause and effect can change the entire pattern of heaven and earth.

And as long as anyone has bad intentions, he already knows...

In comparison, the "selflessness" of the Tathagata Buddha is indeed powerful, but it is nothing more than a small trick in the face of the "inaction" of the Supreme Being.

Turning his face sideways, Monkey found that Yuanshi Tianzun was really looking at him meaningfully.

"What does Tianzun mean by saying this to Bizhi?"

After stroking his long beard, Yuanshi Tianzun sighed: "Didn't I already say it at the beginning? Ask the Monkey King, 'It has been nearly fifty days since the changes in heaven, and nearly fifty years have passed in the mortal world. Heavenly Court, But few people know. Does the Monkey King know why? 'Now, does the Monkey King know why?"

The monkey's face changed slightly.

Yuanshi Tianzun made a big turn, and actually wanted to tell the monkey something. The original Supreme Being was so powerful that everyone had to live in his shadow. Now the monkey appears and the way of heaven changes. There is only one reason why the Supreme Being took this matter seriously. That's what he knows about himself.

No one likes to live in the shadow of others, whether they are monsters, gods, immortals, humans, or Buddhas. Once it is known that the Supreme Heavenly Way is damaged...then the wall will fall and everyone will push it.

Sighing softly, Yuanshi Tianzun looked at the boy pretending to be his lecturer, and said slowly: "Old man, this Miluo Palace, I didn't dare to say it when he was in his heyday, but now, even if he still retains Daluo Palace, The Hunyuan Great Immortal is probably unable to sneak in unnoticed. If the Monkey King has something to say, it’s okay to say it.” (To be continued, please search, the novel will be better and updated faster!
