Celestial Immortal

Chapter 612 "Lingbao's Sutra of Saving People"

Taoism has three treasures, the Taoist scripture teacher.

All disciples of Daoism respect Taoism, scriptures, and teachers.

Daobao, the three Supreme Beings;

Jingbao, three caves and four auxiliary scriptures;

Master Treasure, all the sages who have attained the Tao in the ten directions.

There are also Taoist classics called "Three Refuges", which are the hub of heaven and earth, the root of gods, the first gate of distribution, and the original sign of heart building
In other words, for practitioners, scriptures are the ladder to ascend to the sky and the root of practice.

At the beginning of practice, the Taoist scriptures have a great effect on the ascetics. Reading and studying the Taoist scriptures can calm the mind, prevent inner demons from arising, and external demons will not invade. Those with excellent talents can even understand the mysteries of Taoist practice from the Taoist scriptures. It is of great benefit to practice.

At the later stage of cultivation, Taoism is the stage for cultivators to "enlighten the Tao", and its importance is self-evident.

In comparison, magical powers are just a side branch of the berm.

The more profound the sect, the more it attaches importance to the study of classics, and the more it respects the three treasures of Taoism, scriptures, and teachers. That is to say, heresy and small sects blindly pursue mana and spells.

Chu Chen was not bad at Confucian classics.

Although the Lingshan sect of Shimen is not recognized as a great sect, there are few faults among the great supernatural monks in the past dynasties, and the inheritance of Taoism is not weak, and they attach great importance to classics.

In addition, in order to comprehend and deduce [Hunyuan Xuan Gong], he worked hard to comprehend the scriptures and laid a solid foundation, which is enough to stand out among the monks of the same generation.

Even the fairy seedlings that Dapai Xianzong cultivated carefully since childhood, he did not give up.

However, compared to other Taoist mountain chiefs, it is obviously much worse.

The other Taoist mountain chiefs are all five-rank Taoists for many years, and they are in the stage of "cultivating Taoism" to "enlightening Taoism". They are all masters of Confucian classics, and they have profound knowledge of Taoist classics, which is not comparable to that of Chu Chen, a junior.

"Master Immortal, this is your Taoist scripture."

The Golden Armored God held the Taoist scriptures in both hands and presented them respectfully.

Hearing this, Chu Chen suppressed the anxiety and expectation in his heart, thanked him, and solemnly accepted the Taoist scripture.

On the cover of the Taoist scriptures, there is a prohibition to isolate the spiritual consciousness. Only by touching the Taoist scriptures with one's own hands can the spiritual consciousness sink into it.

Obviously, Mr. Chujun Mingjing intends to test the school this time.

Otherwise, in order to get a good ranking in the assessment, each of the chiefs of the Daoist Academy would specially select the Daoist scriptures they are familiar with, which would inevitably lead to a fight and embarrassment.

The God of Golden Armor handed out Taoism scriptures casually, and it was lucky to get the Taoism scriptures that he had studied for many years, but he could only consider himself unlucky when he encountered Taoism scriptures he was not familiar with.

Chu Chen casually opened the Taoist scriptures.

Notes on the Supreme Cave Mysterious Spirit Treasure of the Infinite Man and the Top Grade Wonderful Sutra

"It turned out to be this scripture"

Chu Chen muttered to himself, his mind was rather complicated.

This Taoist scripture is the Taoist classic "Lingbao Saving Human Beings", which is called the head of all scriptures, the ancestor of all dharmas, and the source of the Dharma Realm.

The scripture annotation is the painstaking effort of a monk with great supernatural powers in the Taoist sect. It is quite precious and is the real "truth". It is a great opportunity for him to be lucky enough to understand it.

Although Chu Chen has recited and comprehended this classic, his attainments are not deep, far inferior to his attainments in "Qing Jing Jing" and "Huang Ting Jing".

"Forget it, if there is no lottery, it will be gone. The most important thing is to understand the annotations of the Taoist scriptures of the seniors of the Taoist sect, and to improve the attainments of the scriptures."

Chu Chen shook his head, his impetuous thoughts disappeared instantly, and he faintly realized.

The fundamental purpose of Mr. Chu Jun Mingjing is not to take the school exam, but to give them a good fortune for the county priests, so that they can obtain the scriptures so that they can go back to preach and teach the Dharma.

If you blindly pursue jade coins and tributes, you are undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen's heart suddenly calmed down, his heart was clear of dust, only the Taoism scriptures were in his eyes, and his mind was immersed in it little by little.

The other chiefs of the Daoist Academy in other counties also sat cross-legged on the futons, their minds sinking into the Daoist scriptures.

For a moment, the hall fell silent, and a needle could be heard.

"Fellow Daoist Qingzhu, Chu Chen really stands out from the crowd here."

The Daoist Zhonglou sat on the high platform, looked up at Chu Chen among the group of county priests sitting cross-legged, and joked with a smile.

The mountain chiefs of the rest of the State Taoist Academy didn't know Chu Chen.

However, they were highly skilled and sharp-sighted, and the young Chu Chen looked very eye-catching. Many people were a little slanderous and suspicious at first, but because Mr. Tianshi Mingjing personally selected the candidate for the county chief, no one had any objections.

One by one, they praised Chu Chen for being young and promising.

"That's right, this kid is indeed young and promising. If I read correctly, I'm afraid his bone age is not more than thirty. Tsk tsk tsk, the old man was very talented back then. He became a teacher at the age of ten, and later entered the fifth rank at the age of 32." Daoxing is far worse than the young man in front of you."

"Who said no! Which fairy seedling is this little guy, why haven't I heard of it?"

Mr. Ming Jing saw the discussion and smiled slightly:
"This son is not a disciple of the Great Sect of the Immortal Sect. He was born in a small sect. Before the age of 20, he was ignorant. Once he was enlightened, he entered the Taoist sect. Since then, his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds. He has achieved the fifth-grade Taoism in just five years of practice!"

Hearing this, all the mountain chiefs who were still discussing the state Taoist Academy fell silent.

As monks with great supernatural powers, who was not one of the ten thousand geniuses in the past, but now they are speechless.

One product a year, which makes them feel so embarrassed.

Layman Qingzhu felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the words, hesitated for a while, and asked:
"Sir, are you a little too hasty? Chu Chen's talent is definitely high, and his Confucianism attainments are also outstanding among his peers, but he is still a little short of being the head of the County Taoist Academy."

"Fellow Daoist Qingzhu is right!"

Mr. Ming Jing nodded slightly.

He knew Chu Chen's situation before, so he naturally knew that Chu Chen was too young, lacking background and experience in preaching, and he was a little short of a county priest who opened up the territory.

"Jade can't be cut, he has high aptitude and comprehension, and there are few bottlenecks in his practice. He doesn't know the hardships of practice. Let him teach and teach, sharpen it, and don't expect to make Wanquan Daoyuan outstanding in just two or three years. "

Layman Qingzhu was stunned upon hearing this.

Obviously, Mr. Ming Jing intends to cultivate Chu Chen, let him settle down and lay a solid foundation.

As for the development of Wanquan Dao Academy, there are doctors and professors assigned by Xianting, no matter how bad it is, it will not be so bad.

And with Chu Chen's talent, given him two or three years to settle down, I'm afraid he won't fall behind, and maybe even surprise people.

"Mister is wise!"

Daoist Chonglou and Layman Qingzhu were quite close to Chu Chen, and when they heard this, they immediately bowed their hands.

Mr. Ming Jing smiled noncommittally.

His Majesty's futon.

Sitting cross-legged, Chu Chen, who was comprehending the Taoist scriptures, did not know that he had become the focus of discussion among the prefects of the state Taoist academy and Mr. Chujun Mingjing.

Right now, he is quite happy.

There is no other reason, when his mind sank into the Taoist scriptures and comprehended the true meaning inheritance left by the Taoist high-level martial arts, the glow that flew into the heart temple before would hang on his primordial spirit.

"I don't know what magical effect this glow will have."
