1472. Chapter 1472 Old Ancestor Chen Tuan
"Who is Mr. Xiyi?" Ye Qing asked in surprise. This was the first time he heard this name. However, looking at Wang Laoba's expression, Mr. Xiyi is probably not a simple person, otherwise Wang Laoba would not be so shocked.
However, after thinking about it, there are a few simple characters who can reach the deepest part of Beim Mountain. The corpse ghost dragon that Ye Qing knew was also the strongest savior in Nanyang. This person was able to live in more than 300 years, which was already beyond ordinary people. As for Mr. Xiyi, his strength probably was not inferior to the corpse ghost dragon.
"Mr. Xiyi is the ancestor Chen Tuan." Wang Laoba said: "Mr. Xiyi was his title, and it was the title given to him by the emperor at that time."
"Ancestor Chen Tuan!" Ye Qing was very surprised. Of course he had heard of this person. He was a relatively famous Taoist figure in ancient times and a key figure in promoting the development of Taoism. Some people even say that Chen Tuan has become an immortal. It is precisely because of these rumors that many legends about Chen Tuan's ancestor become unreal. Some people always think that Chen Tuan's ancestor is just a character in myths and legends, and does not exist.
Judging from this situation now, this old ancestor Chen Tuan is really a living figure?
"I really didn't expect that Old Ancestor Chen Tuan actually entered Beim Mountain!" Wang Laoba sighed, looked at the Taoist words copied by Ye Qing in the notebook, and said, "And, he still left Xiaoyaoyou here!"
"What is Xiaoyaoyou?" Ye Qing said strangely again.
"Xiaoyaoyou is said to be a set of light skills created by Chen Tuan. According to legend, Chen Tuan once used this set of light skills, which was thousands of feet tall and like walking on flat ground. It can be said that it is the strongest light skills in the world." Wang Laoba said: "However, Chen Tuan's set of Xiaoyaoyou has not been passed down. With the passing of Chen Tuan, this set of Xiaoyaoyou has also been lost. Unexpectedly, the ancestor actually left this set of light skills in Beim Mountain. This set of Xiaoyaoyou will have one day to reappear in the world!"
Ye Qing remembered the situation when Fairy Yin used this set of light skills to run around before. I have to say that the power of this set of light skills is really not simple, and it is comparable to the Yiwei Lama's Yiwei Crossing the River. Now that he knows the origin of this set of light skills, Ye Qing is not much surprised. You must know that the status of Chen Tuan in Taoism is not much worse than that of Master Bodhidharma in Buddhism!
"What kind of person is Old Ancestor Chen Tuan?" Ye Qing couldn't help asking.
"What kind of person?" Wang Laoba scratched his head and said, "How to say it? Since the death of the Taoist sect's great sage, although the Taoist sect has been emerging in many talents, no one can surpass the height of Guiguzi. Old Ancestor Chen Tuan can be said to be the closest figure to the height of Guiguzi in the past few thousand years. In other words, since the death of the Taoist sect's great sect's great sect, Old Ancestor Chen Tuan can be said to be the number one person in the Taoist sect!"
Ye Qing couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect that the strength of the ancestor Chen Tuan was so strong. What kind of strength would it take to achieve the Taoist sect after Guiguzi? Not to mention anything else, Lin Xuanyue, the heavenly master of the Twelve Qingtang, is an unfathomable figure. However, he is not very powerful in the Taoist sect for thousands of years. The strength of the ancestor Chen Tuan can really be described as unfathomable!
"Has Chen Tuan also entered the three gates of heaven, earth and man?" Ye Qing couldn't help but say strangely.
"It must have been in. Moreover, it is said that Old Ancestor Chen Tuan did not wait until the three gates of heaven, earth and man were opened before entering. He walked in directly. He did not use the seven keys, nor did he use the three maps of heaven, earth and man!" Wang Laoba said.
"How is this possible?" Ye Qing was shocked.
"What's impossible?" Wang Laoba said: "The so-called three gates of heaven, earth and man are just a large formation left by Guiguzi. Old ancestor Chen Tuan studied all the large formations of the Taoist sect, and entering and leaving the three gates of heaven, earth and man is naturally not difficult."
Ye Qingqi said: "Then...what did he get in it?"
"No one knows this!" Wang Laoba shrugged and said, "Actually, with his strength, the things in the three sects of heaven, earth and man will probably not be of much use to him."
"Not it?" Ye Qing said: "I heard that there may be methods for the Taoist sect to prolong life and extend life in the three sects of heaven, earth and man. When the strength reaches the level of Old Ancestor Chen Tuan, all external things are empty, and prolong life and life is the most important thing. Since Old Ancestor Chen Tuan has entered the three sects of Heaven, earth and man, will he not look for ways to prolong life and continue life? Even the corpse ghost dragon is planning the method for the three sects of Heaven, earth and man to prolong life!"
"Hehe, that's not!" Wang Laoba said: "In history, those Taoist masters lived a lot of life. But this ancestor Chen Tuan was the shortest-lived person. He even didn't even live for a long time in the Heavenly Master Lin Xuanyue. That guy Lin Xuanyue was still 120 to 30 years old!"
"Ah?" Ye Qing said in surprise, "How long has he lived?"
Wang Laoba said: "One hundred and nineteen years old!"
One hundred and nineteen years old, this age is already a very rare longevity for ordinary people. But for those who have achieved success in learning Taoism, this age is not worth mentioning at all. Not to mention others, the old guy Sakyamuni lived for more than 200 years. Chen Tuan, the ancestor of Chen Tuan, was known as the closest figure to Guiguzi in later generations, how could he live for only 119 years?
"What's going on?" Ye Qing couldn't help but say: "Old Ancestor Chen Tuan, haven't you learned the Taoist method to prolong life?"
"The Taoist mental methods all have the effect of prolonging life." Wang Laoba said: "However, these techniques do not seem to have much effect on the ancestor Chen Tuan. Many people in later generations were very strange about the death of ancestor Chen Tuan, because with his strength, it is impossible for him to live only for such a few years. However, he only lived 119 years old."
When Wang Laoba said this, he shrugged and said, "And, after the death of the ancestor Chen Tuan, basically nothing was left."
"No, right?" Ye Qing said: "He left something behind. Didn't this Xiaoyaoyou stay in Beimang Mountain?"
"What's Xiaoyaoyou!" Wang Laoba said: "The most powerful of the skills created by Chen Tuan is called the Sleeping Sutra."
"What is crystal?" Ye Qing asked.
Wang Laoba said: "It's not crystal, it's sleeping scriptures! Sleeping, experience scriptures. Oh, how did you go to college like you?"
"Sleeping scripture?" Ye Qing was even more surprised. Is there any such scripture?
Wang Laoba said: "Old Ancestor Chen Tuan is known as the sleeping immortal because of this sleeping meridian."
With the experience just now, Ye Qing understood this time. Wang Laoba was talking about the sleeping immortal, not the daffodil!
"Can you still be considered a god when you sleep?" Ye Qingqi said.
Wang Laoba said: "Hmph, sleeping is certainly not a god. But if you sleep for three or five years without eating or drinking, and your strength can be enhanced after getting up, then do you think this is a god?"
"Three or five years?" Ye Qing widened his eyes and exclaimed: "If you don't eat or drink for three or five years, then you won't starve to death?"
"Nonsense, Bodhidharma has not died for so many years. Some of the Taoist and Buddhist practices can stop the metabolism of the human body, stop all activities of the human body, and thus stop all consumption. At this time, only the spirit still exists, and the human body is actually no different from death. This is the most profound meditation of the Taoist and Buddhist sects!" Wang Laobadao.
Ye Qing had heard of the things about Master Bodhidharma, and was already shocked. Now he heard that Taoism can do this, but it made him less shocked. There are too many things in both Buddhist and Taoism, which cannot be explained by modern science. If you don’t eat or drink for a few years, it is really nothing!
"These entering into meditations are originally just to make people still have the spirit and think about everything in the universe, thereby improving people's state of mind. This kind of entry into meditation will not increase people's strength at all." Wang Laoba said: "However, the sleeping sutra of Chen Tuan is different. This sleeping sutra can make people unknowingly improve their strength in their dreams, which is very magical."
Ye Qing said: "If that person practices this sleeping meridian, wouldn't he have to sleep all the time?"
"Damn, you are usually very smart, but when you encounter such a thing, you will be confused." Wang Laoba said: "The most valuable thing about sleeping meridians is that they can improve their strength when sleeping. Think about it, the daily sleep time of a normal person should be eight hours. In other words, you spend one-third of your life sleeping. But how much time does you have to practice qigong in your lifetime?"
Ye Qing woke up a little, and he already vaguely understood what Wang Laoba meant.
"I saw that even the children of the martial arts family practiced martial arts for no more than five hours a day." Wang Laoba said: "But if you use sleeping meridians, you can practice eight hours while sleeping. In other words, even if you don't practice during the day, you can practice two more hours more than those who practice with all their strength. If you also practice five hours during the day and use sleeping meridians, think about it yourself, how long do you need to practice martial arts more than others?"
Ye Qing took a deep breath. After hearing Wang Laoba's explanation, he finally understood why the Sleeping Sutra was the most precious skill created by the ancestor Chen Tuan. This set of skill is really practical.
