The queen must start from the head

Chapter 344

The direction Li Daoyou pointed out for Mu Lian on the road to enlightenment was not wrong.

When Mu Lian thoroughly comprehended the five great paths and the three thousand small paths in the world, she found that all the roads to enlightenment lead to the same goal in the end, pointing to the ultimate word "truth".

After completing the penetration of the Great Dao, Mu Lian could feel that she was getting closer and closer to the final step of taking the Great Emperor.

Afterwards, she was invited to participate in a few sessions of Daoism talks in the Ninth Layer of the God-Man Realm.

At the Dao Discussion Conference, Daozu, Buddha and other great powers had already taken that step ahead of her and became the Great Emperor.

The appearance of these people who became emperors is still the same as in the past, but the aura around them is like the way of heaven, and they have achieved synchronization and harmony with the aura between heaven and earth, regardless of each other.

According to Wen Sheng, they received an inexplicable mysterious summons after becoming emperor.

There is an existence in the outer sky, calling them to go there.

The other party told them that the so-called Great Emperor was actually a candidate for Tian, ​​who wanted to take over some mission from Tian.

If nothing else happens, these people will leave this world and go to heaven in ten days at the latest.

With their current level of cultivation as Emperor Cheng, they can go beyond the sky without damaging Feng Tiansuo.

After the Dao Discussion Meeting, Dao Zu invited Mu Lian to his cave alone, and directly revealed the secret of Emperor Cheng to Mu Lian, because he found that Mu Lian was only one step away from Emperor Cheng.

Daozu told Mu Lian that her original understanding of Dao was correct.

After the god-man's high-level superego state, it is necessary to enter the state of no-self.

If wanting to be detached is also a kind of desire, then having desire is also having no desire, and not having desire is also having desire.

Therefore, in order to take the final step, it is necessary to achieve a kind of "purposiveness without purpose".

The so-called "purposeless and purposeful" means that the practice itself has no purpose or pursuit, but all its actions point to longevity and ultimately achieve longevity.

Here is an inappropriate analogy, for example, there is a fool.

After doing good deeds, he unexpectedly received blessings and gained good fortune.

But he did not do good deeds for the sake of blessings at the beginning. He planted good causes without purpose, and thus obtained good fruits that seemed to be purposeful.

In fact, he didn't do it on purpose.

This "purposeless purposefulness" seems to happen naturally.

Everything that happens is flowing in the present moment, and the so-called purpose can only be discovered when you jump out of the present moment and look back or look forward.

When a person is doing something, he may not be doing it consciously at all.

Just like a master of Confucianism and Taoism once said, when a person sees a child about to fall into a well, he subconsciously tries to save him. Is this because he knows the child’s parents?

Is it because he wants to win fame and recognition through his actions?
In fact, he had no planned purpose at all. Everything was done subconsciously and naturally.

In Confucianism, this is goodness and the heart of a child; in Buddhism, it is an untainted and pure heart, and in Taoism, it is more following the Tao and letting nature take its course, imitating nature, doing nothing but doing nothing.

Daozu's words undoubtedly pierced the last layer of window paper on the barrier of becoming emperor for Mu Lian, making her realize how to take the step she was about to take.

A few days later, Mu Lian personally bid farewell to this group of seniors who had become great emperors, and together with other gods in the God Realm, they watched those few figures ascend to the far away.

At this time, the people standing around Mu Lian also changed their attitude towards her from peers to respect.

Fast forward tens of thousands of years, and the ordinary woman who was once struggling to survive in the lowest level of the small world has now become a powerful person in the God Realm.

When Mu Lian nodded slightly to everyone, then turned around and left, many of the first-level gods who were new to the God Realm looked at her back walking in the wind with envy.

Right now, the road to becoming emperor behind the ninth level of the God-human Realm has been cleared, and the practitioners in the God Realm are all burying their heads in hard work, waiting to break through to the highest level in one fell swoop, and then fly out of the sky to see the outside world .

In the past 10 years, the four great emperors, Daozu, Buddha, Wensheng, and Mozun, came out all at once.

And right now, Mu Lian is the one who is about to become the fifth great emperor.

This is called the new gods, how can they not use her as a practice model to follow, so as to strive for the top?
After returning to her own cave, Mu Lian retreated and practiced hard again.

This time, after less than a hundred years, she successfully broke through to the realm of the great emperor and broke through.

After becoming the Great Emperor, Mu Lian's appearance did not change significantly.

She just felt that the distance between herself and heaven and earth had become more intimate, as if she and the latter were originally one.

Afterwards, Mu Lian also heard the mysterious summon that Wen Sheng said.

That voice also called her to leave the sky and go to the other side.

But she wasn't in a hurry to leave just yet.

In the days that followed, Mu Lian, as a powerful empress of a generation, gave several sermons in public, opened the door to practitioners in the God Realm, and taught them the way to reach the sky and become an emperor.

These Taoisms undoubtedly left her inheritance seeds in this world, which can benefit future generations for thousands of years.

After the sermon, Mu Lian bid farewell to her former friends one by one, and sent many farewell gifts.

Her original top-level cave was rented from Slime before, so she had to return it.

Next, she personally went to the Upper Realm that had long been unified in the past.

When she saw the Wushuang sect, which had developed into one of the top ten forces in the upper world, she stopped, and then walked into the sect along the simple and simple mountain gate she was familiar with.

Men and women disciples in the sect came and went, but no one could see her.

When Mu Lian arrived at the mission hall, she saw a huge portrait of herself hanging in the center of the hall for future generations of disciples to visit every day.

On the left side of the main hall, there are portraits of the second-generation master Sun Zi, the third-generation master Sun Zi's son Sun Yiyuan, and the subsequent fourth-generation masters to the seventh-generation masters.

Unknowingly, the sect she left behind has been passed down to the eighth generation.

Looking at the familiar woman in a blue robe in the portrait of the founder of the sect, Mu Lian's heart was so calm that there were no waves.

Her thoughts moved slightly throughout the Tianxia Wushuang sect, and she realized that all the people who had interacted with her in the past, her friends, her disciples... had all passed away.

At this moment, Mu Lian really felt the loneliness on the road of spiritual practice.

That kind of loneliness is not because I am the only one walking forward.

But obviously you are still on the way forward, but those people who have accompanied you, laughed with you, and had joys and sorrows with you, have already left you one step ahead.

It was a kind of loneliness in which only oneself was left...

These emotions come and go just as quickly.

Mu Lian collected her energy, left some things for her great-great-great-grandchildren in the preaching hall, and left here quietly.

After returning to the God Realm, she didn't tell anyone that she was going to the sky and left.

In this way, she quietly left this world alone.
