Yinshan Record

Chapter 342 Where Did the Nine Laws of Judgment Come From?
Just as the beautiful woman's folding fan was about to poke the adorable yellow carp, Li Yizhen flicked her official robe and carefully shielded the strange beast with her wide sleeves.

"What are you doing?" Li Yizhen looked at Su Che and said, "Li Xing possesses wonderful skills, which I am ashamed to admit. I just didn't expect that Li Xing would have such a cunning and ruthless mind."

This Imperial Censor Xingyou suffered a setback at Su Che's hands, but he was, after all, a man of exceptional talent who had attained enlightenment and elixir of immortality, and he quickly adjusted his mindset.

Although it was unknown how Su Che had managed to deceive the yellow carp.

But his prepared weapon was clearly useless.

That's enough for today's discussion.

Li Yizhen looked at Su San Gongzi and sighed inwardly. If they continued chatting like this, and this young man uttered some shocking words, she would lose face even more completely.

Su Che was unaware that Imperial Censor Li had already decided to back down; he was simply curious about the little creature called Huang Yu.

Not only is she cute, but her extraordinary abilities are also worth further investigation.

Su Che had been studying under the Yin-Yang Dharma King for some time. In addition to explaining some of the Black Emperor lineage's methods, this senior focused more on a higher level.

These are the Nine Laws of Heaven and Man, the root of all Dharma gates and lineages.

The so-called three thousand great paths and eight hundred side paths all originate from this.

The Yin-Yang Dharma King once stated this.

The three laws of Heaven are the Great Void, Movement and Stillness, and Creation; they are the natural laws of Heaven, Earth, the Universe, and Nature.

This is the source of the great power of the stars, the fundamental law guiding how the sun and moon revolve and how all things are generated.

The three laws governing human beings are spiritual awareness, life and death, and morality; these are the laws by which living beings survive.

This is the fundamental law that reveals the vicissitudes of human relationships, the continuation of the spirit and mind, the birth, aging, sickness, and death of the human body, and ultimately points directly to "I am who I am."

The three laws of Heaven and Man are called Reality and Illusion, Transcendence, and Yin and Yang. These are the methods of interaction and communication between Heaven and Man.

Yu Lizi once said that the path of cultivation is a struggle between heaven and man, and the measure of this struggle lies in the three laws of heaven and man, which can be said to be the fundamental law that makes a cultivator a cultivator.

These nine methods are perfectly integrated and unimpeded. When broad, they encompass the vastness of the universe; when subtle, they penetrate the wonders of the human heart. They are truly exquisite and all-encompassing.

The Yin-Yang Dharma King once told Su Che that since he had established himself as the pivotal figure, he was no longer an ordinary person. In his cultivation, he should "step outside the mountain to see the mountain" and carry a heart that "judges the law".

Observe the Three Realms from a different perspective, and do not distinguish the Five Elements from the Five Elements.

Upon encountering a supernatural power or a technique, in addition to studying it, one should frequently ponder and carefully consider the mysteries contained within various methods and their connection to the Nine Laws of Heaven and Man.

Li Yizhen took out the strange beast Huang Yu, and Su Che then carefully studied where the beast's special ability was located based on the mysteries of the "judgment method".

After much deliberation, Su Che concluded that the focus should be on the two principles of spiritual enlightenment and morality.

In terms of spiritual cultivation and moral practice, we have two cards to play: one is Buddhism, specifically the true meaning of the Future Star Tribulation Sutra, and the other is sword intent.

Although I started learning swordsmanship the earliest, my foundation was actually quite shallow, especially after I got my hands on the Taiyu Abi Sword.

Despite having such a first-rate application method, the sword intent failed to continue to evolve.

Sword intent is to me like a viewing pavilion on a distant mountain peak. Although I am determined to climb it, I always end up taking a different path after turning left and right.

Another option is a glimpse of the true meaning of the Future Star Tribulation Scripture.

According to the teachings of the Yin-Yang Dharma King, in terms of spiritual cultivation, none surpasses Buddhism and swordsmanship in this world.

Sword cultivators use spiritual insight as their blade and morality as their scabbard, cultivating their divine edge to cut through all constraints. The Buddhist path, on the other hand, takes spiritual insight as its foundation, expanding layer by layer until it encompasses all nine methods of Heaven and Man. Although the Buddhist path and the Sword Palace despise each other and their paths are diametrically opposed, they each have their own unique expression in the path of spiritual insight.

Young Master Su is a typical proponent of taking things as they come. Since the Future Star Tribulation Scripture has readily available methods, he might as well try them out first.

Even if I let it slip, what can Imperial Censor Li do to me?

At worst, we can all have a showdown at the Censorate in Cizhou.

So Su Che used the Nine Netherworld Reincarnation Technique in conjunction with the Future Star Tribulation Scripture, and upon trying it, it indeed had a miraculous effect.

Of course, these were just some thoughts that Su San Gongzi had at the time, and some deductions he made along the way. In Li Yizhen's eyes, it was as if the strange beast Huang Ru that he had obtained was easily defeated by Su Che.

To be honest, Su Che did consider keeping Huang Yu by his side.

Putting aside the little thing's ability to distinguish truth from falsehood, if one could analyze and comprehend how it discerns truth from falsehood, one could, at the very least, acquire a decent supernatural power.

On a broader scale, this could potentially elevate one's understanding of the Nine Laws of Heaven and Man.

As Su Che was pondering this, he suddenly remembered that the Yin-Yang Dharma King had also mentioned that although the Nine Laws of Heaven and Man are called nine, three of them do not usually manifest, making it difficult to use them as a starting point.

Transcendence is the standard of cultivation, not manifested in daily life, but only reflected in one's state of mind. Spiritual awareness is the foundation of the mind and intention, more like representing the innate spiritual seed that is fundamental to the cultivator, which is difficult to grasp.

As for morality, it is reflected in all aspects of human relationships and is the most elusive.

It is clear that my previous judgment of the yellow carp was inaccurate; it was probably not based on spiritual knowledge or morality, but on something else entirely.

Su Che's thoughts were passed down.

The Nine Laws of Heaven and Man are indeed extremely profound and require careful understanding. I am becoming more and more interested in this lovely creature named Yellow Carp.

Even if we take a step back and collect more of these cute creatures, at least we'll have something to explain ourselves if we ever encounter a fox and get caught red-handed.

If successful, it can benefit one's spiritual practice; if unsuccessful, it can be given away as a gift.

Su Che found Li Yizhen particularly pleasing to the eye. He had heard that this Imperial Censor Xingyou was famous for his beast taming skills, and wondered how many similar treasures he possessed. If he could find an opportunity to collect them all for him, he wouldn't be without a gift when he met the young lady and the child in the future.

Upon realizing this, Su Che's attitude immediately improved considerably.

"Brother Li and I became friends after a fight, but we hit it off immediately. I just couldn't contain my emotions, I just couldn't contain myself."

Looking at the round, plump yellow carp, Su San Gongzi thought to himself, "Little guy, don't worry, I'll definitely rescue you from this Li guy's clutches."

These words made the Imperial Censor Xiong Shou frown, wondering what this young Su Lixing was up to. However, he had already decided to watch the show and remained silent.

Li Yizhen frowned, carefully protecting the yellow carp in her hands, and continued to question Su Che.

"There's a prophecy in the countryside that if nine suns were to appear in the sky, eighteen sons would be in charge of divine artifacts. I wonder if Young Master Su has heard of it?"

Prophecy?

Su Che pondered the word for a moment, rubbing the beautiful folding fan in his palm a few times.

Oh, isn't that just a fabricated rumor?

When he first took office in Shanyin County, he uttered the phrase "Heaven will destroy the broken Liang".

However, I've never heard of the phrase "Nine suns descend upon the sky, eighteen sons wield divine artifacts."
