ay you didn't seduce my nephew! My nephew is dead and still being scolded. Online people are saying he deserved to die, that my ancestors for eight generations are being cursed, why hasn't anyone scol...The title "Taiyi" is rarely found in widely circulated scriptures, as they respectfully refer to him as the Eastern Extreme Azure Hua Emperor or the Great Celestial Being who Aides in Suffering Relief.

The little wife said that because the divine respect is compassionate and saves all beings from suffering, it is a great deity with excellent fairy緣福德. In the upper realm, it is called Taiyi Foshén, but juniors often address him as Taiyi Zun Shen out of respect.

And this title is only dared to be used by those who are "related." Most immortals still respectfully address him as the Azure Emperor.

"The Taishang Jing (Classic of the Highest) says: 'Blessings and disasters have no doors, they are brought upon oneself. People respect those who are good.'" The junior wife tilted her head and said.

I smiled and said, "Heaven blesses those who are righteous; fortune and prosperity follow them. Evil spirits stay far away, and divine beings protect them. All their endeavors will succeed, and even immortals can hope for it. Those who wish to become heavenly immortals should cultivate one thousand three hundred good deeds. Those who seek to become earthly immortals should cultivate three hundred good deeds... Is this really true"

To be honest, in today's society, who still earnestly follows the principle of doing good and accumulating virtue

Of course there are, but they're too few.

Now, moral standards have dropped to the point where not doing evil is considered being a good person.

The little wife nodded. "You see, deep down in your heart, you've already agreed with this value system. This is what Old Madam Shen said - a natural Taoist heart, nurtured from the womb."

She paused here and hurriedly asked, “By the way, how is your mother doing”

"I think it's fine. My father said he wanted to summon a soul, she had her soul out of her body before, and now her soul is nowhere to be found..."

"She's out of her body, probably wanting to ask for your help," the junior wife sighed.

"How is that possible, she even looked for my sister Could it be that she's also seeking help from my sister But my sister is so fragile—"

“Perhaps she did this to get your attention. Her magical cultivation is already very impressive. Think about it, how could she control a soul from so far away to appear beside someone Maybe it's because you have her blood on you. The bond of blood relatives is unmatched by anyone… Even the most loving couples don't have a direct connection through blood, only parent and child.”

Perhaps. While I dislike her and don't want to admit she's my mother, blood ties are something no one can change.

As we chatted along the way, we unknowingly walked a long distance on the mountain path.

The parking lot is located downhill. Although the road up the mountain can be driven, it's not permitted by the Taoist priests at the foot of the mountain.

They do not allow the use of technology to shorten the distance of pilgrimage.

When both your soul and body personally experience the path of seeking truth, then you are qualified to speak of piety.

The little wife pointed to an ancient palace on the back mountain and told me that I had to walk the rest of the way alone. The Emperor wouldn't allow her to accompany me.

I ascended the steps, paying homage in the crisp air of early spring.

Every step, a bow.

The Great Compassionate Bodhisattva Ta'e is so merciful. Classical texts say he is the most honorable, the most precious, the most holy, and the most compassionate. As long as people in this world sincerely believe in him, they will all receive his grace, right

"With your mind wandering and so many distractions, how could the Jade Emperor possibly hear your plea" a cold voice, laced with sarcasm, echoed from afar.

I hastily raised my head and saw Luohou Xingjun standing on the steps, backlit. He looked down at me with arrogance.

"How did you know I had other thoughts" I retorted.

"Hmph... You know best yourself." He snorted coldly: "Seeking immortals and worshipping gods, the most important thing is sincerity. Your actions should only be based on your wishes, otherwise any other thought is a distraction."

"I'll try my best," I nodded, taking a deep breath.

I am indeed feeling quite scattered right now, to say the least. It's like I have no direction.

If I want to focus my whole heart on Mu Wanchen, I can certainly do that.

If it weren't for him, I could still be a carefree idler, worry-free about food and clothing, oblivious to worldly affairs, with no thoughts about the future.

He wouldn't be lost and helpless after he left, yet he would have to force himself to be strong in the face of the responsibilities he left behind.

The same action done for too long, the body forms a numb memory. I forgot how long I had been bowing my head with every step, until I bumped into something cold and hard.

I looked up and saw that it was a stone incense burner in front of the main hall.

My goodness, when did I walk this far

I felt like I was “out of it” for a moment, how did I get here

This is what the little wife told me: the front yard of the Taichi God's sacrificial hall has a Taoist priest cleaning the corner. Seeing me bump into the huge stone incense burner, he couldn't help but come over and look, asking, " ... Lady, are you alright You can't even see such a big incense burner"

Aren't you blind too, not seeing that I have a proud immortal divine being by my side

The Taoist priest seemed not to see Luohou Xingjun, who ignored us and strode directly into the hall.

Inside the main hall, there is a statue of Taishang Laojun, with his hands forming mudras and a serene and majestic appearance.

It's quite peaceful here, with no monks chanting sutras or practicing rituals. Besides the caretaker Taoist I just saw, there is no one else here.

The current ruler of the underworld is Emperor Xuanqing, also known as Emperor Beitaidi. Qinghua Emperor naturally attained peace in the mortal world... Most people only know Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering and relieves hardship, but they forget about Taiyi Savior Heavenly Venerable who can even show mercy and transcend the Blood Pool Hell of the underworld...

Luo Hu Xing Jun coldly gazed upwards at this imposing and benevolent statue, his words carrying a hint of sigh.

"There's no way around it. Taoism emphasizes not transmitting knowledge unless necessary and avoiding careless transmission. Its philosophies are profound and require a certain amount of fate. Ordinary people find it difficult to access, so naturally, the faith isn't as widespread…" I whispered back, "But that's also good. It allows those truly devout to seek enlightenment and reduces the spread of unfounded theories."

Lohu Xingjun glanced at me: “At your young age, you can speak like this, it is not easy... kneel down and recite the Bao Gao.”

"Reciting the Precious Sutra" I was a little confused, is reciting the Precious Sutra all it takes

"After all, the mortal world and the celestial realm are different paths. Some roads need to be walked by yourself. This Star Jun has already pointed the way for you. Whether or not you come depends on you." He let out a cold snort, turned around, and prepared to disappear.

"Wait a minute...hold on a second..." I hurriedly called out to him, "I'm confused, what do you mean 'come' Didn't I already get here Where else would I need to go"

Isn't the Qingyu Taoist Temple my destination

Now I have already knelt before the Heavenly Venerable, how is there still someplace to go

Lohu Xingjun's lips curled into a mischievous smile. "With a pure heart, devoutly bowing your head, and reciting the precious sutra one thousand three hundred times, perhaps you will know..."

My goodness, are these celestial beings testing my patience

One thousand three hundred times And I have to do it without distraction. How can I possibly recite while also counting how many times I've recited

I looked at the prayer flags on the main hall, and the slight spring breeze outside made them sway gently.

Before me stood a vast, clean hall. Behind me, beyond the great gate, lay trees swaying in the gentle breeze.

One stillness, one movement, letting the mind gradually sink down.

Mindfulness.

With a sincere heart, I take refuge.energy. None of us dared to ask the other person anything. My brother, quick-witted as ever, reached out and pushed him aside, signaling for him to keep his distance.The man gave a sheepish smile, rai...
