I rely on length to cultivate immortality
Chapter 337 The Three Great Dao Ancestors’ Favorites
Divination is generally recognized as the art with the highest threshold.
It does not depend on qualifications or hard work, but only on fate.
This fate does not refer to the fate between people, but between people and heaven.
The so-called divination, to put it bluntly, is to follow the flow of the long river of fate and peek into the secrets of heaven.
This secret of heaven is not something you can see just because you want to!
For top divination masters like Brother Gui, they may be able to forcibly peek into the secrets of heaven.
But those beginners of divination cannot go against the will of heaven at all. Whether they can peek into the secrets of heaven depends on whether heaven gives them face.
The so-called destined people, to put it bluntly, are those who are pleasing to heaven. Only when heaven is pleasing to the eye and does not reject you, can you enter the divination art.
Otherwise, for a beginner, no matter how powerful the divination method you use, if heaven does not nod, you will not see anything.
Such a person, no matter how hard he tries, cannot complete the simplest divination, how can he enter the divination art?
Therefore, the threshold of divination is very mysterious, and it is hard to explain, but it really exists. If you can't do it, you can't do it. There is no way.
In addition, learning divination will inevitably shorten your life, which is why divination, as one of the most powerful skills, is very unpopular.
Li Xiuchang has been practicing for more than ten years, and he has never seen many divination masters.
He came to the outer door library and found that there were all kinds of introductory inheritances of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, but there was no inheritance of divination!
Even unpopular skills such as corpse-driving can find introductory inheritance.
But divination, one of the five unique skills of cultivating immortals, has no inheritance.
Li Xiuchang asked the old man who guarded the library and found that because divination is special, it is the only skill that is kept secret and not open to outer disciples.
If you want to learn divination, you must first pass the "asking the sky ceremony" to ask the sky to see if you are qualified.
If the heaven does not mind and you successfully pass the asking the sky ceremony, the sect will specially assign a master to teach divination.
That's right, divination is also the only skill in Xianchen Sect that must be taught by a master.
There must be a reason behind all the rules.
It is said that there was a disciple who learned the inheritance of divination and went back to try it secretly.
If you don't have that talent, it's fine, it's nothing but useless work, but you are afraid of meeting someone who meets the requirements.
At that time, an outer disciple who had just entered the sect secretly tried divination out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, he was quite favored by heaven and succeeded in the first divination.
Later, he tried many times, and the more he divination, the more addicted he became. He unknowingly overdrew a lot of his life and went directly from a teenager to a middle-aged man.
Fortunately, the sect discovered it in time and gave him a longevity pill to make up for the lost life.
That disciple turned out to be a blessing in disguise. He was discovered to have a strong talent for divination and was fully cultivated by the sect. From then on, he embarked on the path of a divination master. Now it is said that he is already a grandmaster of divination.
But since then, the Xianchen Sect has also strictly controlled the inheritance of divination to prevent disciples from being harmed by trying divination.
The library does not have the inheritance of divination, and Li Xiuchang does not want to apply directly to the sect. It is troublesome, inefficient, and there will be multiple divination masters.
But this does not bother him. There are other channels to obtain the inheritance of divination.
For example, in the library of Dengxian Pavilion, there is a high-level divination inheritance, which he can read.
He can also wait for Senior Brother Gui to come back and ask Senior Brother Gui for advice directly.
He can also look for it on the preaching list, but things like the inheritance of entry-level skills, as long as they come from the sect, must swear an oath not to leak, not to mention sensitive skills such as divination.
"Let's learn from Senior Brother Gui!"
"Senior Brother Gui will be back in a few days, which will save me from going to Dengxian Pavilion. It will take several days to go back and forth."
"But before that, I can perform the 'asking the sky ceremony' first. If I don't have the divination, I don't have to think about it."
Li Xiuchang decided to test whether he had the "destiny" to learn divination.
If he had the destiny, of course he would learn it. If he didn't have the destiny, he didn't have to have any illusions and gave up the idea as soon as possible.
…
Li Xiuchang checked the preaching list and found that there was indeed no entry-level inheritance of divination, but he found the arrangement method of the Heaven-asking Ceremony.
“To arrange the Heaven-asking Ceremony, you must worship the statues of the three Dao ancestors, and use the three Dao ancestors as a transit to ask the Heaven for the way.”
“Otherwise, ordinary cultivators who ask the Heaven directly will most likely not get a response because they don’t have enough face.”
Li Xiuchang shook his head. He had to ask for help and beg for help in everything.
He couldn’t even ask a question to the Heaven, and he had to find a middleman with a good reputation.
He immediately sent a message to Wang Long, asking Wang Long to help him purchase all the materials for arranging the ceremony.
After getting the materials, Li Xiuchang went to the Dark Heaven Realm through the teleportation array, intending to arrange the Heaven-asking Ceremony in the Dark Heaven Realm.
Although the Heaven-asking Ceremony was only a small ceremony, it had to be said that it was at the highest level, involving Dao Ancestors and Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, in order to prevent any disturbance, Li Xiuchang did not hold the ceremony in the Xianchen Sect for safety reasons.
He first worshipped the three Dao ancestors as the Three Talents.
The Taoist Ancestor Guan Tian is in the "Heaven" position, the Taoist Ancestor Wen Xin is in the "Earth" position, and the Taoist Ancestor Min Zhong is in the "Man" position.
Then he offered incense to the three Taoist Ancestors one by one.
There are different opinions on whether the quality of this spiritual incense is particular.
It is only known that even the lowest-grade spiritual incense can be used, but some people say that using good spiritual incense can increase the possibility of success of the ceremony.
Li Xiuchang would rather believe it than not believe it. Anyway, he is not short of money, and he also chooses the most precious and expensive spiritual incense on the market.
In the middle area, there is also a large offering table, with all the tributes on the table, which can be called luxurious!
There are eight- and nine-level top spiritual fruits, the head of a seventh-level demon, pastries made by him, etc.
Sincerity and sincerity are enough.
These tributes are all offered to heaven.
These top tributes are also offered in front of the statues of the other three great ancestors.
These tributes alone can directly bankrupt some small and medium-sized sects.
Li Xiuchang is also inhumane and not stingy. In terms of face for these tributes, God has to give him a good look.
After the ceremony was arranged, Li Xiuchang stood in front of the large altar table and began to preside over the ceremony.
"Three Patriarchs are here. Disciple Li Xiuchang wants to be favored by heaven, so he prays for the Patriarch's blessing..."
As he spoke plausibly, the incense in front of the statue of the Three Great Dao Ancestors originally curled up and moved with the wind, but suddenly became straight, like a white laser, shining straight into the sky until it disappeared.
The surrounding area also became quiet.
Li Xiuchang observed the changes around him and knew that the ritual had begun to take effect, and the three Taoist ancestors had sensed his request.
At least one Taoist ancestor sensed it.
"It's so fast. It turns out that money can make the world go round!"
Legend has it that for this ceremony, if you are lucky, you have to wait for an hour or three. If you are unlucky, you have to wait a few days for a response, and you may have to change the incense several times in the meantime.
After all, there are countless Taoist monks in the entire world of cultivating immortals, and countless people are asking the Taoist Ancestor for help at all times.
The Taoist ancestors are also very busy!
Although there were three Daozus, they were a bit too busy, so they had to queue up.
But as soon as Li Xiuchang started the ceremony, there was a response. What does this mean?
It means he jumped in line!
He has no friendship with Daozu, and he is not a powerful person. The reason why he can jump in line must be because the tribute is too high!
Li Xiuchang focused his attention on the large altar table in front of him.
When Daozu responded, he would help him ask for the way of heaven.
Then just wait for Heaven's response.
The response from Heaven will be reflected through the incense on the large altar table dedicated to Heaven.
There are three incense sticks inserted in the incense burner.
If the smoke from the three incense sticks goes down later, it means there is no chance.
If there is a stick of incense and the smoke is floating upward, it means that you are "destined", but the fate is not deep. You can learn hexagram skills, but your future achievements may be limited.
There are two sticks of incense floating upward, indicating that it is more suitable for learning hexagram skills and that you can become a qualified hexagram master.
All three sticks of incense are floating upward, he is a genius in hexagram skills and the darling of heaven!
In the Fairy Dust Sect, if you only have the fate of "one stick of incense", it is usually not recommended to learn the hexagram technique.
Only with the fate of two sticks of incense will one be taught the inheritance of hexagram techniques. With the talent of three sticks of incense, one will be taught personally by the master of hexagram techniques of the sect!
Of course, in the legend, there is a fate that is deeper than three sticks of incense. It is the kind of biological son of the Tiandao family. That is, the three sticks of incense burn out instantly, and all the smoke is accepted by Tiandao in an instant.
However, this kind of talent in hexagram skills is rare to see in ten thousand years.
Li Xiuchang has a long lifespan and can make whatever he wants, so even if he only has the fate of a stick of incense, he will not hesitate to practice the hexagram technique.
It doesn't matter if his talent is not as good as others, he can practice more!
Diligence can make up for clumsiness.
Just let him in.
Li Xiuchang observed the three sticks of incense in the incense burner without blinking.
After a while, the smoke from the three incense sticks suddenly stopped, and Li Xiuchang became highly nervous.
The next second, his face darkened...
The smoke from the three incense sticks seemed to be suppressed by something, and they all fell down!
He has no chance with God?
Can't learn the hexagram technique?
No, these tributes given to him must be somewhat fateful, right?
Are you really not giving any face at all?
Li Xiuchang cursed in his heart. All the three great ancestors jumped in line for him. Are you the only one with a high degree of heaven?
Although this is normal, the so-called fate is actually a talent whose interpretation power belongs entirely to the Tao of Heaven.
And the vast majority of people in the world don't have the talent for hexagram, otherwise there wouldn't be so few hexagram masters.
He doesn't have the talent of a divination master, so it can only be said that he is not lucky enough.
He failed in bribing heaven and felt unhappy.
Moreover, he was unable to learn the hexagram technique, so his longevity suddenly became useless.
But at this moment, in the incense burner in front of the statue of the three Taoist ancestors, the three sticks of incense suddenly burned violently, and a large amount of smoke suddenly came out.
The smoke floated up into the clouds and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
At this time, all three sticks of incense were burned out in the incense burner, leaving only ashes.
"What's going on? The ceremony failed, and all the Taoist ancestors ran away with the incense sticks?"
Li Xiuchang was puzzled when he suddenly saw that in the incense burner in front of him, one of the incense sticks suddenly changed, and the smoke that was originally pointing downward began to rise upward.
This means that Li Xiuchang has the fate of a stick of incense and can practice the hexagram technique!
Li Xiuchang was shocked. This sudden change made him reluctant to be happy. Thoughts flashed in his mind, thinking about the reason for the sudden change of heart.
Obviously, the sudden change of mind of Heavenly Dao should be closely related to the vision in the incense burner of the Taoist ancestors just now.
Li Xiuchang had a guess in his mind——
"Could it be said that the Taoist Ancestors of Compassion interceded with Heaven on my behalf, so Heaven gave me a favor and gave me a stick of incense?"
Li Xiuchang is a sensible person, and since all the Taoist ancestors have helped him, he will naturally repay the favor.
Just as he was preparing to offer incense in front of the statues of the Taoist ancestors, a gust of wind blew from nowhere and hit the three incense sticks in front of the statue of Wenxin Taoist ancestors.
The three sticks of incense were also burning crazily, and the gust of wind was obviously unusual. In just a blink of an eye, the three sticks of incense burned out, and the smoke was carried away by the strange wind.
Then he saw another stick of incense on the altar looking up!
Li Xiuchang now had a chance to spend two sticks of incense!
"Did Daozu Wenxin speak for me?"
"Thank you Daozu. From now on, I will worship the three Daozu even more devoutly!"
Although Daozu Guantian hadn't made any move yet, Li Xiuchang couldn't leave that person out alone, or he would offend him.
And saying it at this moment might not mean to remind Daozu Guantian:
You don't deserve rewards without merit. Do you have the nerve to do that?
He stared straight at the statue of Daozu Guantian... What about you, Daozu Guantian, you are such a senior, why don't you help me?
I offered you a sheep head of a seventh-level sheep demon. Give me some strength!
Under Li Xiuchang's expectant eyes, the three incense sticks in front of the statue of Daozu Guantian actually burned violently!
Li Xiuchang was delighted. It was stable!
The chance to spend three sticks of incense is here!
It's not easy to say. In order to ask for the fate of these three incense sticks, the three Dao ancestors came out together.
The Heavenly Dao is too disrespectful!
Sure enough, after the three incense sticks of Guantian Daozu burned out, the third incense stick on the big offering table finally "raised its head".
But what surprised Li Xiuchang was that after the three incense sticks raised their heads together, they all burned out in an instant!
"This, is this the top talent for divination?"
Good guy, the Heavenly Dao was under pressure and directly gave him the maximum talent?
You know what's good for you!
It is said that those with extraordinary talent for divination are all the favorites of the Heavenly Dao.
But Li Xiuchang knew that he was not...
He is the favorite of the Dao Ancestor!
He can have such a talent, all thanks to the support of the three Dao Ancestors.
"Such a great favor, the disciple will definitely remember it in his heart!"
Li Xiuchang was not just talking.
He really planned to go back and serve the three big guys well.
With this good opportunity, how could he not make friends with the three Dao Ancestors and build relationships!
The three Dao Ancestors have good character, and at least they really work when they get benefits! They are willing to work hard!
Unlike some people who only accept gifts but don't work hard.
Li Xiuchang is not short of money. If he spends more spirit stones, he can build a good relationship with the Dao Ancestors, which is a sure win.
This is a long-term investment. When his cultivation level improves in the future, there may be many places for him to ask the three Dao Ancestors for help!
At this time, all the spiritual incense in the ceremony was burned out, and the mysterious and heavy atmosphere dissipated. This made Li Xiuchang understand that the ceremony was over, and the three Dao Ancestors and the will of heaven had also left.
He swept all the tributes with his spiritual sense and found that the spirit fruits were shriveled, the cakes were loose, and several monster heads had lost their vitality.
Obviously, they had all been enjoyed.
"My talent for divination will probably shock Senior Brother Gui."
Li Xiuchang packed up his things and couldn't wait to return to Donggeng District, hoping that Senior Brother Gui would return soon.
He wanted to give it a try and see how easy it would be to tell fortunes for the first time in his life with his top talent in divination.
