Pure Yang Sword Soul: Lu Zuwen Asked for Three Thousand Years

During the Zhenyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, Lu Yan, the son of an official in Hezhong Prefecture, came into the world with a sword-shaped fetal membrane and a lingering fragrance. Since then, he has been inseparable from the "sword". When he was young, he read poetry and books and studied swordsmanship intensively, but failed in three tests. When he met Zhong Liquan at a Handan Inn, Huang Liang discovered in a dream that his fame was false, so he abandoned Confucianism and became a Taoist, named "Chun Yangzi". After entering Zhongnan Mountain, he was taught the "Three Heavenly Escape Swords" by Master Huolong. He used the sword as a metaphor: cut off greed and anger, cut off love and desire, and destroy worries. All iron turned into pure yang, and he traveled with the sword from then on. Drunk at Yueyang Tower for three times, his sword drew the yin and yang of the lake; he visited Lushan Mountain at night, discussed Taoism with Zen Master Huanglong, and suddenly realized that "the sword is in the heart", and threw the sword into a spring to prove Taoism; he even held a "Three Talents Banquet" in the ruins of Chang'an, advocated the unification of the three religions, and wrote "the three religions have always been the same ancestor". He integrated inner alchemy with swordsmanship, wrote "Hundred Character Inscriptions" and "Zhonglu Chuandao Collection", created "Chunyang Tao", and was respected as one of the "Five Northern Patriarchs" of Quanzhen Sect. For thousands of years, he has transformed his sword into a boat to save a drowning child, brought down the rain to relieve the drought, and pointed his mind to the lost, and performed great virtues in helping the world by "playing in the world". In the Yuan Dynasty, he was awarded the title of "Emperor Fuyou" and eventually became the legendary immortal ancestor who "severed three thousand troubles with his sword and spread the Tao to the world for generations". From an ordinary boy to a Taoist god, Lu Dongbin's three thousand years of questioning the path is a "sword of the heart" that cuts through illusions and reveals the true history of spiritual practice. It is also a human hymn that "transforms people with Taoism and lives forever".
