Watching Emperor Ling's retreating figure, Ma Teng couldn't help but sigh. From a military perspective, using world authority at this moment would undoubtedly be the best opportunity! It's just a pity that this emperor lacked the necessary courage!
Seeing Ma Teng sighing, Yuan Feng comforted him, "Shoucheng, there's no need to worry. His Majesty has dispatched another 10,000 lawbreakers, hasn't he? So, let's make a proper plan."
“Alright, Minister Lu, please bring out the military distribution map of Ji Province and the entire northern region. Everyone else, please stay as well. Let’s discuss this together. After all, this war is no longer a simple military operation; we need to consider all aspects!” Ma Teng said firmly.
Meanwhile, while everyone was seriously considering and formulating a plan, what was Zhang Jiao doing?
At this moment, Zhang Jiao was sitting on the altar, with the yellow sky above his head. His hands were constantly casting spells, and he was making sounds that were different from what ordinary people could hear. They were very magical and mysterious, as if he was summoning something.
Zhang Jiao, engrossed in casting his spell, was unaware that he had just narrowly escaped a deadly crisis! A truly deadly crisis!
If Emperor Ling had been willing, even one percent of the world's authority would have been enough to eliminate him. Unfortunately, he missed his chance. Perhaps Emperor Ling would only regret it after the Yellow Turban Rebellion ended!
As Zhang Jiao chanted, streams of refined, golden incense energy flowed continuously into the yellow sky above.
Huang Tian seized the opportunity to release a great deal of Daoist energy, directly infusing it into Zhang Jiao's body and enhancing his strength. At the same time, it emitted many strange fluctuations, heading towards the infinite distance.
These fluctuations moved incredibly fast, directly transcending time and space, and soon left the Great Han Dynasty, arriving in the boundless chaos.
What's amazing is that this fluctuation ignored the invasion of the chaotic energy and continued to move towards a specific target according to some kind of law.
Finally, they arrived at a world filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, brimming with life. Before a massive altar, a Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes.
This altar was hundreds of feet high, with each level measuring one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters), covering an area of hundreds of acres! Even with the help of magic, the construction of this altar still resulted in the deaths of over a million Hu tribe prisoners!
As for the Taoist priest, he was dressed in green robes and holding a magic sword. He sat quietly on the altar, and then suddenly jumped up.
"The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise! The Azure Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise! Our Grandmaster has already taken action! I must inform my Master immediately!"
As he spoke, the Taoist priest directly struck a bronze bell beside him. This bell wasn't large, but it was a precious spiritual treasure; with the aid of his magic, a gentle strike could carry its sound for thousands of miles. In fact, if he wished, it wouldn't be impossible for its sound to travel throughout the entire world!
Thinking of Zhang Jiao's plan and all the efforts he had made over the years, even though the Taoist priest himself was exceptionally strong and had great composure, he was still somewhat excited at this moment.
Holding a bell hammer, he struck the small bronze bell in front of him.
With a soft clang, a clear and melodious bell rang out. The sound was not loud, but it was very penetrating, and it was also quite magical, as almost everyone in the world heard it.
Many curious young Taoist priests immediately raised their heads and looked curiously in the direction of the altar.
However, the Taoist priest didn't even look at the crowd around him and started banging the bronze bell hard.
when!
when!
when!
when!
when!
when!
when!
when!
The bell rang eight times in a row, plus the first one, making a total of nine! After nine consecutive rings, the Taoist's master finally woke up!
------------
Chapter Twenty-Two: Morality has three thousand six hundred gates, each person holding only one root. Who knows the subtle ways it opens...?
Morality has three thousand six hundred gates.
Each person holds a seedling root.
Who knew that such a mysterious enlightenment would come to him?
It is not among the three thousand six hundred gates.
As the nine melodious bell tolls rang out, the Taoist priest, who had kept his eyes closed, finally opened them, unleashing rays of light. Wherever the light reached, everything vanished into nothingness.
The Taoist priest was dressed in white, holding a whisk in his hand. He had black hair and a black beard. His face appeared resolute and confident.
Even more miraculously, above the Taoist's head, there was also a small patch of yellow sky. This patch of yellow sky was much smaller and weaker than that of the main world, but in essence, it was only slightly inferior.
"My Yellow Heaven Great Law has finally made some progress. Just in time for Master's uprising, it is the time for us to put our skills to use!" Sun En said excitedly.
For someone like him, seeking and attaining the Dao seems to be the most important thing. Now that the time has come, it's normal to be a little excited.
As for the "Huangtian Dafa," it is a technique created by Sun En himself. This technique inherits from Laozi's "Tao Te Ching," the ancestor of Taoism, and combines the great achievements of Taoism in the Han Dynasty. It originates from Huang Lao and is taught to both heaven and man. It has reached the realm of transcendence and sainthood, which is beyond the reach of ordinary martial arts.
(The Taoist teachings of the Han Dynasty were given to him by Zhang Jiao.)
His Yellow Heaven Great Law, in the final analysis, is still a method of cultivating the mind.
The initial stage of refining the mind is to refine an impure mind, eliminating emotions and delusions, and allowing the mind to reflect emptiness.
The second level of cultivation involves focusing the mind and harmonizing the Qi, creating a misty, ethereal atmosphere, thus laying the foundation for the initial development of divine skills.
The three levels of refining the heart are called the heart of heaven and earth. When the yang energy returns, the heart is refined and the qi is advanced, and the mysterious gate is formed.
The fourth level of refining the heart of retreat and concealment, the mysterious gate suddenly appears, and the Qigong is completed.
The five layers of refining the foundation of the heart, taking Kan to fill Li, accumulating gold into the abdomen, and forming the elixir and accumulating Qi.
After six levels of refining one's nature and heart, the Jade Elixir is restored, transforming the acquired into the innate. Blood naturally turns into white paste, and intention naturally condenses into red earth.
