As a general rule, the number three is never just three, but represents many, many meanings.
So, Su Xiaoya naturally has her own opinions.
After all, the Milky Way alone contains somewhere between 1000 and 4000 billion stars, and at least as many planets.
Even if only one out of every 1000 stars is inhabited by life, there are about 1 to 4 million stars in the Milky Way that are inhabited by life, which is far more than the number of three thousand.
The solar system is located on the inner edge of the Orion Arm, about light-years from the center of the Milky Way, which is one of the concentrated areas of gas and dust.
The Milky Way's black hole has a supermassive black hole with a mass of about 410 million suns at the center of the Milky Way, and there is also an intermediate-mass black hole not far away. So far, this is something that no other galaxy has.
The solar system consists of the sun and the celestial bodies that move around it, including planets, satellites, asteroids and comets. These celestial bodies move around the sun along elliptical orbits under the gravitational force of the sun.
"Water from gold gives birth to the blue star people, fire can overcome wood straw hat star, the ends of the earth are endless, drive Pluto out of the courtyard."
The solar system has changed from nine planets to eight planets: Mercury, Venus, Planet Alpha, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
Pluto was kicked out of the nine planets and reclassified as a dwarf planet because of its small size, special orbit, the existence of a large number of similar celestial bodies around it, and failure to meet the new definition of a planet.
?It can be seen that everything has variables.
Now, with the help of the five stars Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn, Su Xiaoya has a deeper understanding of the five elements.
After all, in the ancient and mysterious cosmic system, the five major planets each shine with their own unique light and are indispensable to the solar system.
Venus, which corresponds to the element "gold", has been called "Taibaixing" or "Taibai Venus" since ancient times. In ancient Greek mythology, it is called "Aphrodite".
Venus is bright, emitting golden light, as if it contains endless wealth and power.
Venus reaches its brightest brightness slightly before sunrise or after sunset every day - it appears in the eastern sky in the early morning and is called "Qiming"; and it is in the western sky in the evening and is called "Changgeng".
In traditional Taoist culture, Taibai Jinxing is a crucial core figure, and his status is second only to the Three Pure Ones.
The Three Pure Ones of Taoism are Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun and Taiqing Daode Tianzun. They are the most respected beings in Taoism.
Taiqing Daode Tianzun - the full name is "Three Pure Ones, Taiqing resides in the fire red celestial being who ascends to the Taiqing realm and is formed by the mysterious energy of the sun god Baojun Daode Tianzun Hunyuan Shangdi", that is, Taishang Laojun, the third of the Three Pure Ones.
The Jade Emperor often appears in the world in different forms to preach and enlighten people, and spread the teachings of Taoism.
He used morality as a criterion and taught people to follow moral norms, uphold virtues such as kindness, tolerance, and integrity, and pursue spiritual sublimation and liberation through their own practice and accumulation of merit. He was revered as the ancestor of Taoism.
In addition, Taishang Laojun is also good at refining various elixirs, which are believed to have magical effects.
Taoism believes that Laozi is the incarnation of Tao that was born before heaven and earth. He will come to the world in different identities and images at different times to save all living beings.
Laozi was the incarnation of Taishang Laojun in the Spring and Autumn Period. He spread the thoughts and wisdom of Tao to the world through writing Tao Te Ching and other works.
Lao Tzu had studied the theory of "morality" for a long time. After the decline of the Zhou royal family, he traveled around and created the "Tao Te Ching" before retiring at the request of Yin Xi, the commander of Hangu Pass.
The "Tao Te Ching" is known as the "King of All Classics". Its content covers many disciplines such as philosophy, ethics, political science, military science, etc., and has had a profound impact on China's philosophy, science, politics, religion, etc.
The most widely circulated and popular part of the Tao Te Ching is the first chapter:
The Tao that can be spoken of is not the real Tao. The name that can be named is not the real name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth; the named is the mother of all things. Therefore, always be in the nothingness in order to see its wonders; always be in the existence in order to see its boundaries. These two things come from the same source but have different names, and are both called mysterious. The more mysterious, the more mysterious, the door to all wonders.
Ever since Su Xiaoya began to cultivate immortality, she would review the Tao Te Ching from time to time, and the content of the first chapter had the greatest impact on her.
Read the book a hundred times, and its meaning will become apparent.
This sentence is most suitable for Su Xiaoya. Every time she studies the ancient and mysterious "Tao Te Ching", she will immerse herself in it and ponder it over and over again like an infatuated person.
As she read more and more, her understanding of the way of cultivation became deeper and deeper, as if every word and line contained endless treasures of wisdom waiting for her to dig out.
Every time Su Xiaoya read the "Tao Te Ching", it was as if she had taken a step forward in the fog, and the originally vague concepts gradually became clear.
Those obscure scriptures are now beginning to reveal their true connotations and profound meanings.
Gradually, she felt more and more deeply the mystery contained in the "Tao Te Ching". The profound philosophy that transcends words made her feel awe.
A person who practices Taoism must maintain a state of mind of nothingness in order to gain insight into the endless mysteries of the universe. Su Xiaoya has a deep understanding of this.
When she put aside all distracting thoughts and emptied her mind into the state of nothingness, the world before her eyes seemed to have undergone subtle changes.
The details that are usually ignored are no longer what they used to be. Every blade of grass, every stone and every drop of water around exudes a unique atmosphere, as if telling the secrets of nature.
As the saying goes, there are three thousand great ways.
The three thousand great ways refer to the three thousand great ways at the beginning of chaos, including time, space, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, light, darkness, thunder, ice, wind, sword, and knife...
As for the minor paths, there are more than hundreds of millions.
Of course, anyone who can comprehend one of the Three Thousand Great Ways and cultivate it to the Mahayana stage will be able to gain top-notch combat power.
"The Great Way has three thousand forms" represents the laws governing the operation of all things in the universe. Although the essence of the Great Way is unique, sentient beings have different roots, different understandings, and different minds, so there are many ways and methods to reach the Great Way.
Everyone can choose a path that best suits him or her based on his or her own talents, coincidences and personal understanding, and continue to move forward along this path to explore and comprehend the true meaning of the supreme Tao.
For example, one can practice through alchemy, chanting scriptures, observing precepts, meditation, talismans, magic, and accumulating virtue, in order to achieve goals such as becoming one with the Tao, transcending the mundane world, and achieving longevity.
In the ancient and mysterious field of practice, inner alchemy practitioners are like ascetic monks, carefully regulating their own essence, energy and spirit.
The practice of inner alchemy focuses more on the exploration of the inner world, striving to achieve a perfect balance between yin and yang in the body, and constantly enhancing the energy hidden deep within the body.
This extreme refinement of one's body and mind is regarded as a supreme "Tao".
As for external alchemy practice, it is more about relying on alchemists to make elixirs and improving cultivation by taking elixirs.
The alchemist is busy in front of the alchemy furnace, gathering all kinds of rare herbs and exotic gold and stones together, and after complex and delicate processing techniques, he refines pills containing magical medicinal powers.
External alchemy practitioners use the powerful force of these elixirs to change the state of their bodies, slow down the pace of aging, improve their cultivation, and realize their dream of pursuing immortality.
This is also a unique way of practicing "Tao".
Of course, practicing Taoism is not as simple as staying away from the hustle and bustle of the world and living in seclusion in the mountains.
A true practitioner needs to always immerse himself in the complex real world, maintain a sharp mind, and use a deep gaze to see the subtle boundaries of the operation and development of all things and the inherent laws hidden therein.
This is the tempering of the mind.
If one's cultivation level is high but his state of mind is not good enough, it is easy for a cultivator to go astray; if one's state of mind is high and his cultivation level has accumulated to a certain degree, a successful breakthrough will come naturally and without any danger.
Therefore, the improvement of one's state of mind is very important, and no cultivator will ignore the tempering of one's state of mind.
At this moment, Su Xiaoya's mind was clear and her thoughts were exceptionally sharp.
In the vast universe, "nothing" and "something" seem to be completely different, but in fact they all come from the same source.
However, due to the different forms they present, people have given them different names.
This kind of wonderful phenomenon that is both similar and different is collectively called "Xuan". This mysterious and profound principle is like a master key that can open the door to countless wonderful methods.
It is also because of this that the five basic elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth are intertwined and influence each other, forming a set of exquisite relationships of mutual promotion and mutual restraint.
It is this intricate set of symbiotic relationships, like a colorful painting, that outlines the colorful and wonderful world we live in, full of infinite possibilities.
As Su Xiaoya's thoughts became clearer and her understanding of the Five Elements became more thorough, the pentagram constructed by the Yuanying of the Five Elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth became exceptionally bright.
Su Xiaoya could clearly feel that the cultivation level of the Five Elements Nascent Soul had continuously broken through the two major realms of the Void Refining Stage and the Fusion Stage, and directly broke through to the early stage of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Su Xiaoya was also forced to withdraw from the state of enlightenment. There was no other way, the ten Yuanyings were all in the Dantian, but now they were divided into two different realms, destroying the balance in the Dantian.
Su Xiaoya's eyes were slightly closed, and she did not open them just because she came out of the state of enlightenment. However, her face showed an extremely complicated expression that seemed to be neither smiling nor sad, which made Yu Shuheng feel very nervous.
This is, what's going on?
Did the breakthrough fail?
However, the huge tornado of chaotic power just now actually penetrated into Su Xiaoya's body in front of everyone.
With so much chaotic power, how could there be no breakthrough?
The key point is that Su Xiaoya's aura was clearly the unstable fluctuation after a successful breakthrough.
However, although Su Xiaoya had withdrawn from the enlightenment, she did not withdraw from the state of cultivation. Yu Shuheng naturally would not let others disturb Su Xiaoya.
After all, the insights gained must be digested carefully.
Xuanming, Gonggong and Wuzhiqi are all top bosses. Naturally, they understand that it is very important for Su Xiaoya to consolidate her enlightenment at this moment, so they are all waiting quietly.
Now, all their hopes are placed on Su Xiaoya.
Bai Yiyi, Yu Wenxuan and Tushan Xiaoya and their group were not ignorant people, so they would naturally not disturb Su Xiaoya's perception.
Su Xiaoya was clearly organizing her thoughts at the moment. In her memory, the Taoist Taibai Jinxing God was originally dressed in a yellow long skirt, a cockscomb-shaped headdress, and playing an exquisite pipa in her hands, looking like a graceful goddess.
During the Ming Dynasty, the image of this god changed dramatically, and he was transformed into an old god with a face as tender as a child, and hair and beard as white as crane feathers. This image was deeply rooted in people's minds and became a deep-rooted impression for everyone.
Taibai Jinxing is often entrusted with important tasks and is sent down to earth by the Jade Emperor to inspect the good and evil deeds in the world. Therefore, Taibai Jinxing has the resounding title of "Western Patrol Envoy".
There are two sides of the river, and there are two sides to things.
As Venus hangs high in the east in the early morning, shining with dazzling light, it will move to the west in the evening and shine brightly.
This erratic and elusive nature could not help but inspire awe in people, and fear spread among the Mayans and Aztecs.
For the Mayans and Aztecs, Venus has a special meaning. It not only implies the shadow of death, but also symbolizes the light of hope for rebirth and recovery.
Especially in the Aztec belief system, Venus is the god they revere - Quetzalcoatl.
It is said that this magical god possesses an extraordinary ability that can allow those who have disappeared from the world to regain life with the help of skeletons secretly stolen from the kingdom of the dead, and to regain vitality with the blood bestowed by the gods, thus achieving the miracle of resurrection from the dead.
This has the same effect as the immortal grass in the Eastern cultivation system.
Venus symbolizes the West, which represents the tranquility and solemnity of sunset; it also represents autumn, the season of harvest and restraint, when everything gradually matures and stabilizes.
Obviously, Venus's restrained and solid nature makes it a symbol of tenacity and durability.
Gold: When gold is strong and has fire, it becomes a vessel.
There are many wonderful and complex laws of change in the relationship between the five elements. Among them, there is a unique relationship between gold and water: gold can produce water, but if there is too much water, gold will sink to the bottom of the water.
This is like throwing a piece of gold into the vast ocean. Even though it is extremely hard and priceless, it will be submerged and sink under the impact of the endless water flow.
However, if the powerful metal encounters the right amount of water, the water can effectively blunt the edge of the gold, making it no longer as sharp and dazzling.
This interaction not only reflects the beauty of balance in nature, but also implies the checks and balances in the development process of things.
Similarly, metal also has the property of restraining wood. When wood is too luxuriant, the power of metal may not be able to completely suppress it, but instead it will consume its own energy excessively, resulting in a situation of "too much wood and not enough metal".
On the contrary, if fragile wood encounters powerful metal, the result is often that it is ruthlessly chopped down and broken.
This phenomenon not only reflects the important impact of the contrast between strong and weak on the cultivation of people with different spiritual roots, but also warns people to be good at assessing the situation and doing things within their capabilities when facing difficulties or strong enemies.
Only by cultivating both inside and outside can you achieve success.
Of course, the existence of gold is inseparable from the nourishment of soil. Soil can breed gold and provide it with the nutrients and environment it needs to grow.
But if there is too much soil and it is too thick, the gold may be buried deep underground, making it difficult for it to shine.
Conversely, although soil can produce gold, if the amount of gold is too much, it will cause changes in the nature of the land.
This series of changes repeats itself, forming a dynamic and delicate ecosystem, in which each element plays an indispensable role and together maintains the stability and harmony of the whole.
"Chaos Five Elements Sword Technique"!
Su Xiaoya looked in disbelief at the roll of golden parchment that suddenly appeared in her sea of consciousness.
She had just touched upon the great Dao of the Five Elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth. To be more precise, she had just comprehended a little bit of the great Dao of gold among the Five Elements. She had inexplicably obtained a book called "Chaos Five Elements Sword Art". This was too horrifying.
Su Xiaoya saw it very clearly, after all, it was in his sea of consciousness, so Su Xiaoya clearly saw that the "Chaos Five Elements Sword Technique" flew out from the core of the first source star.
