Chapter 7 Main Story II: The Book of the Half Immortal
Chapter 7 Main Storyline 2: The Book of Half-Immortals
Jiang Chen pondered this sentence carefully: The second main storyline "The Book of Half Immortals" is online. Do you want to watch it immediately and participate in the plot simulation?
In other words, once you watch it, you must simulate participating in the plot three times and choose one of the endings to merge with reality.
Once you start, there is no turning back.
Even if he chooses to do nothing in the ending, knowing part of the future information has changed the future to some extent.
Perhaps, this is the true meaning of the "Butterfly Effect".
Of course, for Jiang Chen, every main storyline is an opportunity. It depends on whether he can seize it.
For now, let’s take a look at the main storyline this time.
"Watch the drama!"
Time and space instantly froze, leaving only Jiang Chen's spiritual thoughts to move.
The scene begins in a dark library.
There are no windows on the four walls, but it is not completely dark. You can see the broom in the corner and the dust and cobwebs on the bookshelf.
In the world of cultivation, jade slips are generally used to preserve skills.
The collection of books is mostly incomplete or banned ancient books.
These ancient books have not been perfected or reproduced. It is difficult to carve them into jade slips, and it is impossible to store the spirit of the books in the Najie, so they are preserved by the library.
There are actually many similar ancient books or forbidden laws, most of which are dross, but occasionally gold can be found.
An octogenarian man sat cross-legged in a hole in the wall, with a book on his knees and caught a firefly to borrow some light.
He manually flipped through the classics page by page, trying to reproduce the techniques inside.
It's a pity that the repeated failures made the old man almost crazy, his face twisted into an indescribable worm, and he screamed angrily with his spiritual mind:
"Where is the Book of Half-Immortals!"
Jiang Chen didn't expect that when watching the original plot, he could still hear the characters' spiritual thoughts, but not the characters' psychology.
From the old man's twisted facial features, Jiang Chen could determine that this was a demon clan hiding here.
As for the so-called semi-immortal mind method... is it a method for becoming an immortal?
Could it be that Tian Mingye and Qian-faced Fox wanted to let Tianmo Sect take over Qinglan Sect just for this technique?
Where is this?
Jiang Chen controlled the camera and pulled out the angle of view.
Only then did I realize that this is the basement of the Wanfa Peak Library... not very famous, but it can be regarded as a forbidden area of Wanfa Peak.
I checked the current temperature and sun height, and they are basically the same as the Qingxin Peak where I am.
Jiang Chen can be sure that this is exactly what is about to happen.
Jiang Chen even turned the camera around and zoomed in on Qingxin Peak.
I really saw myself and Senior Sister Liu...
This kind of God’s perspective is so amazing!
The plot of the next twelve hours shows that if he does not participate in this incident, he and Liu Ruyan will chat for a few words, then go back to their homes, find their mothers, and go to practice.
The two did not participate in the main plot, and they did not create any sparks beyond friendship with each other.
"Am I too boring?"
Jiang Chen laughed at himself, and then pulled back the timeline of the plot, and his vision returned to the basement of Wanfa Peak's library.
After a burst of impotent rage, the octogenarian in the wall cave had no choice but to walk out of the cave, return the book, and choose the next one.
Suddenly, in addition to the old man's hand, there was also a sharp claw pressing on the book.
Seeing that the sharp claws were about to pierce the book, the old man raised his eyes and stared at a human-headed dragon snake, and whispered:
"Old Jiao, don't block my way. There's no way a monster can become an immortal!"
If you look carefully, you will see that this is a dragon snake that is less than ten feet long, but it has a very powerful momentum.
And as a demon, it seems that only its head is a human head, and the rest of it has degenerated into a dragon.
"I have the blood of the ancient dragon clan. How can I compare to you, a little demon? From the moment you became a demon, your bodies were covered with human blood. How can you become an immortal? I have never eaten a human being!"
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded. A demon and a demon actually ran into the Qinglan Sect's library to find the way to become an immortal.
Also, why is it that no one notices the demon appearing at Wanfa Peak in the inner gate?
At this moment, one demon and one demon couldn't argue, and they didn't dare to release the demonic energy and flames, so they could only continue to increase their brute force.
Soon, there was a swipe and the book was torn into pieces.
Only then did the two discover that this was actually a wordless book with the text and internal medicine spiritual patterns erased.
The more this happens, the more extraordinary it becomes!
"The Book of Half-Immortals!"
The two of them rushed over and fought over the Wordless Book, knocking the bookshelf upside down.
Sudden.
The torn heavenly book continued to burn, and every bit of it turned into ashes.
By the light of the fire, the two of them discovered that a sweeping boy was standing at the entrance with a broom in his hand.
"It's our first fight in half a year. It's rare to see well-behaved monsters like you."
Saying this, the book sweeper waved his hand and restored the rickety bookshelf to its original position.
The dissipated demonic energy and demonic flames were also sealed in the basement without leaking out at all.
The atmosphere underground suddenly became tense.
Look at the book boy again, he looks eleven or twelve years old, with gray hair on his temples, and his eyes are calm, revealing the vicissitudes of life.
Jiang Chen was also particularly surprised. He had only heard of the sweeping monk, but he did not expect that there was a sweeping boy.
"Who are you?"
They both asked together.
In fact, the book boy in front of me comes here every month to clean the dust and cobwebs, but obviously, this book boy must have another identity.
The bookboy asked back:
"How do you two know that our Qinglan Sect has the so-called Book of Half-Immortals?"
"It has nothing to do with you!"
"If you tell the truth, I will tell you the contents of the Half-Immortal Book."
"How do you, a book boy, know?"
"Because Lao Chan is the first Wanfa Elder of our sect and the creator of the so-called Half-Immortal Book."
As he spoke, the scholar's spiritual pressure suddenly surged, his figure became rickety, and his delicate facial features gradually turned into an old face with a thousand ravines, like a pile of firewood.
"The peak of Nascent Soul!"
The two of them were surprised.
The old book boy clasped his hands and shook his head.
"You two also had Nascent Soul cultivation half a year ago. Unfortunately, there is no spiritual energy here, and you practiced the wrong forbidden method, causing your cultivation to fall to the peak of the Golden Core."
The two knew they couldn't escape, so they confessed:
"It's okay to tell you. The information I got comes from Graycastle, West Hezhou branch, an informant named Gui Mo."
"You are also a convert to the desert... I didn't expect that Graycastle, which is famous for its credibility, would actually sell two copies of one piece of information!"
Jiang Chen had also heard of Graycastle's name.
It is a chamber of commerce that integrates trading of rare items, issuing bounties, and collecting intelligence. It is famous for its credibility and is independent of the rule of the Daqian Dynasty.
The old book boy suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and sighed:
"Unfortunately, the information from Graycastle is false. Qinglan Sect does not have the so-called "Book of Half-Immortals", but only the "Book of Returning to the Form", a technique created by me.
As the name suggests, demons who practice this method will slowly lose their human form and transform back into enlightened spiritual beasts.
When demons practice this method, they will slowly lose their demonic image and return to their human form.
When humans practice this method, their extremely gifted single spiritual root will degenerate into a balanced endowment of the five elements, which can be regarded as another level of transformation."
The two demons didn't believe it at all.
"Then why did you create this method?"
The old book boy smiled dryly.
"There is also a kind of practitioner who has extremely poor roots and nearly equal distribution of the five elements. If he practices this method, a concave abyssal sea of qi will be formed in his Dantian.
The speed at which he absorbs spiritual energy has not changed at all, and it cannot be lowered anyway.
But he can use the abyssal air sea to gently absorb demonic energy and demonic flames and convert them into his own spiritual power.
It is equivalent to a talent, but it has expanded the recipes for absorbing spiritual energy.
Compared with the previous talent, the speed of practice has been accelerated, and it is easier to master various forbidden methods."
Jiang Chen was a little confused when he heard it, and played this passage back and forth several times.
A great way to attract stars? But not that exaggerated.
Similar to the Nine Yin Manual: The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess damage...
If people with mediocre talents practice this method, their talents will become even lower, but at the same time they can absorb the energy of demons, or even practice dual cultivation with demons?
Going back one step and advancing two steps is not a solution.
The old book boy continued:
"Back then, I was just a middle-aged man. I created this method to practice and use retreat to advance. Only then can I integrate the spiritual power of the three spirits of demons, demons, and humans, practice all kinds of techniques, and finally successfully conceive a baby. Step by step, I am living today.
For someone as talented as me, the Book of Return is naturally a huge improvement.
But for the transcendent talents of you demons, the Book of Return is just useless.
"Now...do you still want this book?"
Regardless of whether the two demons still want it or not, Jiang Chen wants it.
One demon and one demon suddenly froze on the spot, and the more they listened, the more something was wrong.
"In the past six months, not only our cultivation has declined, but our appearance has also deteriorated..."
"Wait a minute, the informant who provided information to Graycastle is Gui Qi, isn't it you?"
When Jiang Chen heard this, his hair stood on end.
