What kind of evil method is this? This is the righteous method..

Chapter 364 The Turning Point of Taoist Methods

"This pattern looks like..."

Zhang Ling held the tree branch, tilted his head, and looked at the pattern on the ground. He had a vague feeling that the pattern represented day and night.

The light of day, the darkness of night.

The alternation of yang and yin.

These ideas were gradually formed in his daily life, unconsciously and thoughtfully.

At this moment, Lin Fan landed in front of Zhang Ling, standing very close, and looked at the man in front of him very seriously, trying to memorize his appearance.

He was just an ordinary person, but when he drew the yin-yang symbol, then his so-called ordinariness became extraordinary.

Lin Fan returned to Gui Wu's side. He didn't hold out much hope that Zhang Ling could fully comprehend the true Daoist methods. At least in his generation, it would be difficult to create Daoist methods.

But that's how the world develops. Over the long course of time, the knowledge passed down from generation to generation will eventually be integrated with the wisdom of many and form a system.

Gui Wudao said, “Fellow Daoist, this benefactor is very ordinary, but his wisdom is extraordinary.”

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Indeed, why not wait another hundred years and see?"

Gui Wu nodded, filled with curiosity about how far the Taoist practices in this world would develop.

Time flies, and decades have passed in the blink of an eye.

For the beings of this realm, time passes very slowly, but for Lin Fan and his companions who are observing, time passes very quickly, in the blink of an eye.

During this period, due to the appearance of Namo, the demonic path was very peaceful, after all, that scene was still vivid in their minds and often appeared in their thoughts.

Those who follow the righteous path actively communicate with Namo, filled with curiosity about the golden radiance of that day, eager to know what kind of cultivation method it represented.

It was clearly extremely powerful, but it was quite different from the magic they practiced.

Through conversation, it was learned that what Namo called Buddhism was not some earth-shattering method. In fact, Namo generously wrote down the methods of Buddhist practice for people to observe and learn.

Those who follow the right path naturally become engrossed in it, but soon they discover that this method is not something they can learn at will, and gradually they give up the idea of ​​learning it.

At the same time, they acknowledged the existence of Buddhism, and from then on, four major powers existed in this world.

The Way of Immortals, the Way of Buddha, the Way of Evil, the Way of Demons.

Zhang Ling, who was being watched by Lin Fan, was already old, but his attainments were not low. He even had several disciples following him, learning Taoist principles that he himself only half understood.

In that simple open space, Zhang Ling sat cross-legged on a futon, with several disciples sitting in front of him who were also learning from him.

"Teacher, I wonder if the Yin-Yang theory you have come to understand can be practiced?" a thin man asked.

He was not a local villager, but a wealthy young man from the city, well-read, traveled the world, and even dreamed of joining a sect of immortals to cultivate.

But when he passed through this place and learned of a remarkable person, he took the initiative to visit him, listened to some of the person's teachings, and had an epiphany. So he put everything down, stayed here, and became the person's disciple.

At this moment, all the disciples present looked at their teacher.

They want to know too.

Zhang Ling stroked his white beard, neither denying nor affirming, but said softly, "The theory of Yin and Yang is infinitely profound. Even now, after my enlightenment, I dare say that I have not even reached the tip of the iceberg. As for whether one can cultivate it, I have no clear answer. All of this still requires your help."

The disciples nodded in agreement.

The shortest of their studies was five years, and the longest was over twenty years. Naturally, they gained some insights. Although their master didn't provide the answers, they knew that this was definitely a path to cultivation. Over these years, they comprehended Yin and Yang, and observed the heavens, the sun, the moon, and the stars.

They created the theories of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

The interplay and harmony of Yin and Yang, and the mutual generation and restraint of the Five Elements, also found applications in their lives.

Lin Fan was very satisfied with the progress at this moment.

Such progress in just a few decades—of course, if he were willing to guide, the methods of Taoist cultivation could be developed very quickly, but that is not what he wants to see.

Gui Wudao said, "Fellow Daoist, it seems that your wish has come true. With the emergence of the rudimentary form of Daoist methods, it is likely that the cultivation methods will soon follow."

Lin Fan said, "It's hard to say. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but now we've reached the most difficult point."

Gui Wu understands the meaning of the Daoist.

The Taoist philosophy has emerged, but no one has yet been able to fully integrate it to create the Taoist method. If such a person were to appear, his achievements would be on par with Zhang Ling's.

Time flies, and decades have passed.

Zhang Ling died of old age more than ten years ago, but the Taoist teachings have spread and more and more people are following and learning from them. But what surprised Lin Fan was that ghostly energy had appeared in this world.

This aura was not present before.

Soon, he learned the specific reason. It turned out that after he created this world, he placed the underworld here. Reincarnation would continue, and over time, when people in this world died, the yin energy would gather, and their souls would enter the underworld to be reincarnated.

As time goes by, the yin energy gradually intensifies, and some of the dead, under special circumstances, do not enter the underworld but instead wander the world as lonely ghosts.

On this day, in Yin Yang Town, where Zhang Ling lived, it was originally a village, but with development, more and more people were learning about Yin and Yang.

The villages here gradually evolved into towns, and their names were naturally replaced by the concepts of Yin and Yang.

Among the fourth-generation disciples, Zhou Tong was the fastest learner and had the highest comprehension.

Today, he was carrying his schoolbag toward the Yin-Yang Academy when he suddenly heard a cry of alarm. He saw the villagers gathered together in a panic and fear.

When he arrived there, he was shocked to find that someone had hanged themselves inside the house.

The person who committed suicide had a livid face, a ferocious and terrifying expression, and his hands were bent into claws, gripping the rope around his neck. He was clearly in great pain before he died, but the only thing that terrified him was the smile on the lips of the person who hanged himself.

This stark contrast made him feel that something was very wrong.

Even as he stepped inside, he felt a chill sweep over him, but as the chill penetrated his body, he discovered a warm current within him that dispelled the cold.

A sense of crisis, a feeling I've never had before, has now emerged.

Do not know why.

He always felt that a pair of unwavering eyes were watching him.

Zhou Tong stepped outside, telling the villagers not to enter the house unnecessarily, and then hurriedly ran towards the school to tell the teachers about the incident.

Lin Fan witnessed this entire scene.

He felt that a turning point in Taoist teachings might be approaching at this moment.
