Chapter 722: Beauty Lost, Coffin Carrying Expedition (6)
Su Yun stretched out his hand in surprise. The moment he touched the supernatural aura, he seemed to be pulled into the river of time and saw the old man who was sitting there quietly comprehending the Dao.
When Su Yun opened his eyes again, it was as if he had entered Lao Tzu’s body. He could clearly sense the confusion in his heart.
What exactly was the Dao?
This question had been troubling Lao Tzu for a long time. He had wanted to comprehend Dao techniques countless times, but he always felt that he was one step away. Before this, Lao Tzu had already been quite insightful. He had taken in countless disciples and left behind many famous Daoist books in the future.
However, Lao Tzu had always thought that what he had written was only one sided. He had never really understood the Dao he wanted to seek. Yet it was also under the enhancement of this lifetime of cultivation that he coincidentally entered the supernatural state.
It was also in this supernatural state that he was enlightened. It was not that he did not comprehend Dao techniques, but that the Great Dao in this world was difficult to exist. The Daos he had comprehended previously were nothing in front of the true Great Dao. If the Great Dao was compared to Mount Tai, then the Daos he comprehended were only low hills. Although it had the will of a high mountain, it could not compare to the trip to the high mountain.
Lao Tzu stayed in the supernatural state for a full five minutes. It was not inferior to the first time Su Yun stepped into the supernatural state. This was also the longest time Su Yun had seen an ancient person stay in the supernatural state.
That was why the supernatural aura left here was so abundant. Coupled with the influence of the heavenly talents, many cannonballs actually stopped here.
However, immediately after, in the image in Su Yun’s mind, Lao Tzu slowly stood up and left. He gathered all his disciples and carried out the last lesson as if he was making his final instructions.
In this class, Lao Tzu told all the students his insights. Only then did he show that the Dao he knew was only the tip of the iceberg of the Great Dao. This did not mean that what they had learned was useless, though. On the contrary, this was the reason why they should tell more people this knowledge. Only in this way could he plant a seed for his descendants. When the time was ripe, it could grow into a towering tree.
Therefore, it was also after this class that Lao Tzu made a huge decision. He only called a few of his closest disciples to tell them that he was about to travel far and turn into a barbarian. His idea was very simple. It was to benefit his descendants. He had always believed that one day, when the Great Dao existed, someone would stand up and lead the world into the Dao Cultivation Sect to comprehend the Great Dao of this world.
It could be 500 years or 5,000 years, but that person would eventually appear. This person would undoubtedly be the ancestor of all Dao, and Lao Tzu was just an unknown tree planter. Although he could not see the green trees shade the sun for his descendants, he would not let down his life’s journey of seeking the Dao.
The scene in front of him quickly disappeared. As if he had returned from a dream, Su Yun saw the familiar Laojun Platform again.
This memory shocked Su Yun. All along, Lao Tzu’s whereabouts had been a puzzle that no one knew.
However, Su Yun finally understood now. It was no wonder there were no records of what happened to him in history. It turned out that he had left Hangu Pass to the west and left Great Xia. He had traveled all the way to the west.
According to the path he saw in the supernatural state, the place he could reach along the way to the west would be India. Coupled with the fact that Lao Tzu was traveling west to become a Hu, and that Buddhism was a folk story of the Dao, this possibility was close to 100%.
Su Yun looked at Laojun Platform in front of him in a daze for a long time. It had to be said that Lao Tzu was indeed a saint. In that turbulent era, one could imagine the desire for the Dao in one’s heart to be able to make such a huge decision.
Moreover, Lao Tzu, who had done all of this, had never done it for himself. In his eyes, there did not seem to be any division of borders and territories. There was only planting trees for future generations so that when the Great Dao arrived, the seeds could break out of the ground and grow into towering trees.
However, even after absorbing this relatively rich supernatural aura, Su Yun still did not sense any signs of metamorphosis in his supernatural state. But he could sense that he seemed to be unprecedentedly close to the unknown world above the supernatural.
It was as if this mysterious world was in front of him, only covered by a thin veil. As long as he removed this thin veil, he would be able to see the full appearance of this realm. This perception made Su Yun’s heart beat violently. The memories left behind in the supernatural aura also gave Su Yun a new direction.
Now, he has gone to all the famous ancient temples in Great Xia. This was the last place where there might be supernatural aura, but he could not completely break through. This did not mean that he did not have a chance. At least from the memories just now, there was another place that might have an extraordinary aura.
Yinfan!
Lao Tzu transforms into a Hu and preaches a sermon to become a land of barbarians!
This thought filled Su Yun’s mind, making him even more agitated. This seemed to be his last chance, although Su Yun could not be sure if he could enter the supernatural state a second time.
