Today, the editor of China story network brings you the reason why the wind and the moon have not become immortals. I hope it can help you.

Qingfeng Mingyue in journey to the west is the youngest two disciples of Zhenyuan immortal. Qingfeng is 1320 years old and Mingyue is 1200 years old, which is clearly explained in the book.

Sun Wukong was 342 years old when he broke into the underworld, and then became Bi Mawen and Qi Tiansheng in the heaven for more than 100 years. He should have just reached the age of 500. Later, he was suppressed by the Tathagata Buddha at the foot of the five elements mountain for 500 years. When he came out, he went to the west to learn scriptures. His age should be exactly 1000 years old.

From this point of view, the two of them are indeed older than the monkey king, so why haven’t they become immortals?

It turned out that becoming an immortal must be approved by the heavenly court, and only by worshipping immortal books and joining immortal books can one be regarded as a formal immortal. In the lower world, you can also call yourself immortal, such as tiger, deer and sheep, but the so-called immortal is relative to ordinary people, and heaven does not recognize it.

Zhenyuan immortal’s disciples who had completed their cultivation before became immortals. They went out to set up their own house. Those who had not completed their cultivation continued to practice with him. The original text said very clearly:

“There are countless scattered immortals under the immortal gate. Now there are forty-eight disciples, all of whom are true to the Tao.”

In other words, the clear wind and bright moon are also Quanzhen believers who have obtained the Tao, and have not yet cultivated to the realm of becoming immortal.

In fact, the age of Qingfeng Mingyue is relatively young. The original text makes it clear that Qingfeng Mingyue is the youngest disciple of Zhenyuan immortal. Although they are all over a thousand years old, they all look like teenagers.

In fact, the life span of Taoist and immortal in journey to the west is very long, so we can’t take the age of ordinary people as an example. People like red boy and monkey king, who practice Buddhism perfectly at the age of more than 300, are peerless geniuses, which are extremely rare.

Look at the great gods who are about the same age and ability as the monkey king. The ox demon king is more than 1000 years old, the black bear spirit is more than 1000 years old, and the old turtle who connects the Tianhe is more than 1300 years old. He has not completed his cultivation and cannot be shaped into a human.

As a monk, more than a thousand years old is a very young age. As an ordinary monk, qingfengmingyue has no peerless talent, so it’s normal for him not to become an immortal at the age of more than 1000.

The situation of clear wind and bright moon is very special. They are about to become immortals.

The ginseng fruit of Zhenyuan Daxian is actually a kind of magical elixir, so it is also called “Cao huandan”. You can live 360 years after smelling it, and 47000 years after eating one.

The effect of ginseng fruit is real, especially for monks. But that thing only matures once in 10000 years, and this time it happens to be caught up by qingfengmingyue.

And they ate more than once, not one.

When the Garden opened, he shared two with the crowd. The two Tang monks who gave it to Tang Monk didn’t dare to eat. They ate one by one. At the ginseng fruit meeting held to thank Guanyin Bodhisattva, the disciples shared another one.

The two of them not only ate ginseng fruit three times, but also ate a whole one. This suddenly increased the life span of more than 47000 years and refined ginseng fruit. Their cultivation will progress rapidly, their perception will also be thousands of miles a day, and the perfection of cultivation is just around the corner.

So, the luck of Qingfeng and Mingyue, the two Taoist children, really made other elder martial brothers envy. They have not become immortals, which was a matter of the past. After eating ginseng fruit, will they be far from becoming immortals. Disclaimer: the above content originates from the network, and the copyright belongs to the original author.
