Chapter Four Hundred and Seventy Third: The Unity of Knowledge and Action, the Unity of Heaven and Man

"Is there an ancient holy mountain that is unyielding and indomitable in my heart? Daoist Hongwu's state of mind is extremely high, not inferior to me!"

Jiang Nan admired this Hongwu Taoist very much, and thought: "This kind of person is terribly stubborn, and his state of mind cannot be shaken. If he believes in one thing, he will go on step by step. No one can change his thoughts and steps!"

In a sense, Hongwu Daoist has similarities with Taihuang Patriarch, but Taihuang Patriarch has exhaustive strategies, not only has his unshakable persistence, but also is good at using various factors to maintain his own advantages.

But Taoist Hongwu seemed a bit rigid and lacked flexibility, which was a limitation of temperament.

He has his own principles, but it can also be seen from this that Taoist Hongwu is much inferior to the Taihuang ancestor in terms of mental state.

For the cultivation of mental state, it is only the first step to cultivate the Taoist heart at the beginning, the next step is to become a master, and then a great master.

But above the Grand Master, there is a higher realm.

Jiangnan is now at the pinnacle of the Great Master Realm, and has some understanding of the higher state of mind.

The next few realms of mental state cultivation are the unity of knowledge and action, the unity of heaven and man.

The Taihuang Patriarch is in the state of mind of the unity of knowledge and action.

In fact, among the many strong men Jiangnan had seen before, there were very few who could surpass the Taihuang in terms of mental state. Sister Jiang Xue, who was always indifferent, was one, and the boy in yellow shirt who methodically sought to liberate his other bodies was one.

Xi Yingqing, who has realized his relentless celestial skills, can only be regarded as equal to the Taihuang Patriarch. As for other people, such as the Great Sage King, Zhantian Mozun, Hanyu Yaozun, and Dachitian God Lord, although they all reach the same level of state of mind. The realm of the unity of knowledge and action, but the degree of perfection of the state of mind is inferior to that of the Taihuang ancestors.

Jiangnan is also comprehending the state of mind of the unity of knowledge and action, and has dabbled in it, but has not yet entered this spiritual state.

"Brother Gong Daoist, since you're here, why don't you show up?" Daoist Hong Wu suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Hong Wu, if you haven't cultivated into a god, you are not my enemy. Now that you have become a god, you are my enemy!"

Another middle-aged man walked over. This man in a purple robe and cloak looked extremely dignified and imposing. When he moved his body, he saw a terrifying phantom of a god emerging from the boundless starry sky behind him. He was infinitely tall, vast and boundless. A very strong mana cultivation base.

His phantom of the gods is bigger than the ancient holy city, and the holy city is like a speck of dust in front of the phantom of the gods behind him!

This is Gong Changqing, the deputy city lord of the ancient holy city. Although he is extremely afraid of the Hongwu Taoist, he can become the deputy city lord, command the affairs of the holy city, and take charge of the power of the holy city. Naturally, he is also a terrifying powerhouse!

"Hit my daughter, what a guts!"

Gong Changqing's gaze was like a torch, and he swept towards Jiangnan and Shao Tianya. Jiangnan felt an incomparably powerful divine sense piercing into his eyebrows, and with a slight movement of his thoughts, his divine consciousness in the eyebrows immediately turned into a mouthful of immortal jade bottle.

Gong Changqing's consciousness crashed into the jade bottle, and the immortal light in the bottle was instantly annihilated and dissipated, and there was no movement at all!

And Shao Tianya also felt Gong Changqing's spiritual invasion at the same moment. His spiritual cultivation was not weaker than Jiangnan's, but he lacked some opportunities in terms of spiritual consciousness and supernatural powers, but it was no small matter.

Gong Changqing's consciousness rushed into the center of his eyebrows, and was immediately shattered by a nine-turn sky wheel mark, obliterated into ashes!

"Hmph, the two brats have some skills."

Gong Changqing's face sank, he was a little surprised, he didn't kill the killer, but wanted to teach Jiangnan and Shao Tianya a lesson, but he didn't expect to be easily resolved by the two, and immediately turned to look at Taoist Hongwu, and said coldly: " Hong Wu, your disciple colluded with outsiders, even rebelled and injured my daughter, today you have to give me an explanation."

Daoist Hongwu said in a deep voice: "I really want to give an explanation to Daoist brother. Tianya, you injured Gongdao brother's daughter, I will drive you out of the holy city, are you convinced?"

Shao Tianya was stunned, bowed and said, "I am convinced."

Daoist Hongwu nodded and asked Gong Changqing, "Is Daoist Gong satisfied with this arrangement?"

Gong Changqing's face darkened, and he expelled Shao Tianya from the Holy City? This treatment is not painful or itchy, and it is of great benefit to Hong Wu.

After driving Shao Tianya out, Taoist Hongwu has no worries and can let go and compete with him for the position of deputy city lord!

However, Taoist Hong Wu had already dealt with Shao Tianya in name, and even he couldn't make trouble anymore.

After all, the deputy city lord can't cover the sky with one hand, and there are old city lords and many old monsters in the holy city above him, so he can't be unscrupulous.

"And what about this outsider?"

Gong Changqing's eyes fell on Jiangnan, and he said solemnly: "An outsider is unscrupulous in my holy city, repeatedly hurting my holy city disciples, disturbing my great wilderness, and ruining my holy city's reputation! If you don't kill him, it's too much for heaven. !"

"This fellow Taoist is the patron saint of a small tribe in my Great Wilderness. That small tribe has already erected a statue to enshrine him. How can he be an outsider?"

Daoist Hongwu smiled slightly and said: "He is from my holy city, and some casualties are unavoidable in the competition between the disciples of the holy city. But since he hurt your daughter, I will also punish him and drive him out of the holy city , how about the friendship of the palace dao?"

Gong Changqing's eyes showed a cold light, Taoist Hongwu was obviously partial to Jiangnan and Shao Tianya, and wanted to protect their lives, even Jiangnan, an outsider, was assigned the status of a disciple of the Holy City!

Gong Changqing snorted coldly, turned around and left, now Taoist Hongwu has cultivated into a god and has the capital to be equal to him, so he dare not be too presumptuous in the holy city.

Daoist Hongwu watched him leave, turned back to the temple, and a voice came: "Jiang Jiaozhu, Tianya, you go."

"Master!" Shao Tianya said reluctantly.

"Friend Shao, let's go."

Jiang Nan said in a deep voice: "Master, you must calm down and compete with Gong Changqing for the position of Deputy City Lord without any scruples. If you stay here, you will only distract him."

Shao Tianya also understood this truth, nodded and said: "I know. Fellow Daoist, where are we going?"

"The world is so big, where is it not a place to shelter?"

Jiang Nan smiled and said, "I have acquaintances in Izumo City, why not go to Izumo City first."

"It's good to have acquaintances!"

Shao Tianya cheered up, and said with a smile: "I haven't been to Izumo City for a long time. There are battles in Izumo City every day, which are much more exciting than my holy city. Recently, there will be a gladiatorial competition. Many big forces and Young masters will appear there! However, Gong Changqing will take revenge, if we leave the holy city, we will be attacked and killed by him to avenge his daughter!"

"Then it depends on whether Master has the strength to compete with him!" Jiang Nan's eyes flashed, and he smiled.

Shao Tianya's eyes were also radiant, and he said: "I haven't seen my mentor make a move for a long time. Let's go!"

He sacrificed the building boat, and the two boarded the boat and flew out of the holy city.

"Jiang Daoyou, your body is too heavy!"

Shao Tianya complained: "By the way, didn't you just enter my Zhongtian world? Why do you still have acquaintances in Izumo City? Could it be a god from your world?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Jiang Nan smiled and said, "That friend of mine, you will be very happy to see him."

The boat flew tens of thousands of miles away, and suddenly the sky changed drastically, and an extremely huge face appeared in the void, it was the phantom of the god behind Gong Changqing!

Although he is not yet a god, he has already approached that realm infinitely, and the countless Taos in his body have turned into phantoms of gods, possessing the power to change the world!

Boom—he covered it with one hand, the void collapsed, the ground, water, wind and fire rushed, and tens of thousands of miles around were covered by this palm, leaving Jiangnan and Shao Tianya nowhere to escape!

Jiang Nan and Shao Tianya were still talking and laughing happily, and they didn't care about it.

At this time, the void split open, a nine-turn sky wheel rotated, cut the void, and a fist blasted out from the depths of the void, majestic and majestic, it collided with the big hand of the god, only to hear the loud bang bang bang bang It was heard that many Taos that built the big hand of the phantom of the god were smashed to pieces by this punch!

"Hmph! Hong Wu, let me see how much money your Rank Nine combat body has, it can compete with me! The sun is shining!"

The phantom of the god snorted coldly, his palms gathered together as they were broken, his hands suddenly interlaced, and then opened, and countless Taos condensed and turned into a huge planet, with firepower gushing out and divine light shining, the phantom of the god Embracing the Sunshine Explosion Star, he hammered down with a bang!

This kind of power is shocking, the power has already surpassed the attack of the gods, and the combat power that can only be possessed by the gods!

Daoist Hongwu's fist continued to strike, and suddenly he opened his five fingers, and raised his three fingers up, turning into a strange palm print, facing the sun and exploding stars!

"Desolate ancient seal!"

He blasted out this seal, as if he blasted out of the ancient holy mountain, and he could faintly see his three fingers like an ancient mountain, surrounded by stars, galaxies circling, and star land floating on the mountainside!

Jiangnan's eyes lit up, Daoist Hongwu compatible his state of mind with his skills, and there was an unyielding and indomitable ancient holy mountain in his heart, and his fist also turned into an ancient holy mountain, which greatly increased his strength. It is not as good as Gong Changqing in terms of appearance, but its combat power is even better than that!

This is the unity of knowledge and action!

The unity of knowledge and action can maximize the strength of the gods, and the realm is still above the great master!

Daoist Hongwu has a solid accumulation and a very high level of mental state, and after some unintentional advice from Jiangnan, he finally achieved the unity of knowledge and action, surpassing the Great Master!

The wild ancient seal collided with the sunburst star, and the sunburst star shattered directly, and the smoke disappeared. The next moment, the wild ancient seal covered Gong Changqing's phantom of the god of heaven, and the phantom of the god of heaven showed an unbelievable color in his eyes, extremely stalwart The gods in the sky began to collapse, and in an instant, they were destroyed by a seal!

"What a rank nine battle body, I've learned it!"

Gong Changqing's voice came from the void, and he said solemnly: "However, if you want to take my position, you have to see your real means, not just fighting against each other!"

The sky suddenly calmed down, white clouds curled up, and the building boat flew slowly over the white clouds.

"The unity of knowledge and action, where is my unity of knowledge and action?"

Seeing the battle just now, Jiangnan fell into deep thought: "The unity of my knowledge and action is not the empress's forgetfulness, the reluctance of the head teacher, or the indomitable and indomitable Hongwu Taoist. What is the heart?"

He faintly felt that his state of mind cultivation had reached the most critical position, and there was no way ahead. If he could figure it out, he would open up a path. If he couldn't figure it out, his state of mind would stop moving forward!
