Five Elements Sacred Secret

Chapter 187 Discussion

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Misong took the initiative to interrupt the topic.

"I kept you here today because I wanted to hear your understanding of the Dao of Alchemy. You know my situation. So this is very important to me. I hope Senior Brother Yi will give me some advice."

When Wusong said this, Mu Xiaofeng had some impression that Wusong was born with a physique suitable for alchemy and had been trained in alchemy since childhood. Because of this, Wusong was a little resistant at the time, but it seems that he has faced it calmly now.

"That's fine, but I still say that what I say may not necessarily be correct. You have to use your own judgment."

Mu Xiaofeng didn't have any intention of hiding anything and spoke directly.

"That's no problem. Don't I still have a master?" Yusong naturally understood what Mu Xiaofeng meant.

"I think the way of alchemy is more about understanding the essence of this world through spiritual herbs and materials, so as to reach the great way directly."

Mu Xiaofeng directly stated his conclusion and then explained.

"Regarding the Tao, I still mean what I said before, Tao is Tao. It doesn't matter whether it's the big road or the small road, they are all Tao. There is a saying in my hometown, all roads lead to Rome. In fact, I think that's what it means. The road we take, whether it's the way of alchemy, the way of martial arts, the way of talismans, the way of tools or other ways, is the big road. It's just that the stage we are in now is far from being called the big road, so I will temporarily call our current big road the small road."

Mu Xiaofeng and Feng Yuxian have different ideas about this theory, but Mu Xiaofeng combined his previous ideas and came up with it through his own understanding. However, whether this conclusion is correct can only be verified by time.

Misong said thoughtfully: "So what Senior Brother Yi means is that the Tao is the Tao, and there is no distinction between the minor and major Taos?"

"This is how I feel, but I don't know if it's right or not, so you have to make your own judgment, Misong. Maybe these conclusions are not suitable for your path." Mu Xiaofeng explained.

"I understand this, but Senior Brother Yi's remarks are somewhat different from those of the ancients, and the classics I have read in the past are also somewhat different from Senior Brother Mu's conclusions." Yusong replied.

"I myself don't know whether this is right or wrong. You have to make your own judgment." Mu Xiaofeng emphasized again, because Mu Xiaofeng was afraid that his remarks would confuse Misong.

"Actually, my understanding of Tao comes from the understanding of senior Feng Yuxian, but this is through his understanding, combined with my own perception, so it is different from his understanding." Mu Xiaofeng explained.

“Feng Yuxian, I have read this senior’s alchemy jade slips, but I didn’t expect that Senior Brother Yi’s was also one of them.”

Mu Xiaofeng was not surprised by Yusong's answer, because Mu Xiaofeng only got a rubbing copy of the jade slip from Yuxian, so it was not surprising that this jade slip was widely circulated.

Then, Wusong said, "Brother Yi, please tell us about your understanding of the Dao of Alchemy."

"In fact, from my years of alchemy and cultivation, I think that our cultivation is nothing more than using the skills to comprehend the rules of this world and to reach the point of using them. I boldly guess that one day we may be able to manipulate or change the rules, but at this point I don't know how far we have cultivated. Alchemy is the same, especially after advancing to the seventh-level alchemist, starting from refining the sixth-level pill, we are also comprehending the spiritual "rules" in the spiritual herbs, and then using these spiritual "rules" to make the pills achieve the effects and functions we want. However, these spiritual herbs grow naturally on the Tianhuang Continent, so these spiritual herbs should understand the operation of this world better than us to some extent, so I think the way of alchemy is the same as cultivation, both of which are to comprehend and utilize the rules of the Tianhuang Continent."

Mu Xiaofeng said a lot in a long string.

Misong, however, listened very carefully.

As Mu Xiaofeng spoke, he found that he always felt like someone was watching him, and he could not sense anything no matter how hard he tried.

Misong's frown gradually relaxed. Mu Xiaofeng did not say anything else, because what he said was just his own understanding, not his own realization.

"Thank you, Brother Yi, for speaking frankly. I will be able to distinguish these things myself. If there are any problems, I can find Brother Yi." Finally, with his brows completely relaxed, Yusong raised his head and said.

"It doesn't matter. As long as it can be of some help to Miss Yu's path, it's worth saying." Mu Xiaofeng replied.

Misong smiled and replied: "Senior Brother Yi is too modest. I still benefit a lot from these principles."

"dong dong"

Then there was a knock on the door.

There were three people in the room, the door was open, and they looked up.

Mu Xiaofeng and Qingfeng immediately stood up and said, "Greetings, Senior Nie."

Misong also stood up and said, "Hello, Master."

"Haha, come sit down." Nie Jie saw that everyone was looking at him, smiled and said, then walked into the room.

When Mu Xiaofeng saw Nie Jie coming in, he thought to himself, could it be that Nie Jie came in to blame him because he thought his theory might have misled Misong?

Seeing that several people did not dare to sit down, Nie Jie raised his hand and motioned for them to sit down: "Sit down, don't be too restrained."

After saying that, he sat down next to Mu Xiaofeng.

Among the few people, Misong was the first to sit down, and Qingfeng also sat down.

Only Mu Xiaofeng looked at Nie Jie next to him, who was neither sitting nor standing.

"Sit down." Nie Jie said again.

Seeing that there was no other way, Mu Xiaofeng had to sit down.

"I want to talk to this brother alone." Seeing that everyone had sat down, Nie Jie turned to Misong and said.

Misong looked at Nie Jie with some doubt.

Mu Xiaofeng thought that he wouldn't be the one to settle the score with him alone.

Nie Jie looked at Misong, smiled and nodded.

Yusong pulled Qingfeng outside, and Qingfeng looked at Mu Xiaofeng with some concern.

As if sensing the worry in Qingfeng's eyes, Nie Jie smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to your little lover."

As soon as these words came out, Qingfeng's face immediately turned red, but he took the initiative to pull Misong out of the door.

A hint of unnaturalness also flashed across Misong's face.

Although Mu Xiaofeng was thick-skinned, he could not stand the teasing. He secretly said that Nie Jie was not serious, but he said, "Senior Nie, you are joking. There is nothing between Qingfeng and me."

"Haha, young man, how come you can't take a joke?" Nie Jie said with a smile.

Mu Xiaofeng could only smile. He thought, which expert can joke like you?
