Chapter 623: The only avenue, the true text is endless
Half a day later, the repulsive force of the surrounding space had reached its limit. When Zhao Sheng saw this, he brushed his long sleeves across the stall in front of him and easily put the treasures on the floor into his sleeves.
Then, he relaxed his body, and a gray-white vortex appeared out of thin air, swallowing it completely in an instant.
In the cave at the belly of the mountain, a figure emerged from the stone chamber. Zhao Sheng opened his eyes and felt that all his limbs were suddenly filled with pure spiritual energy, and was quickly sucked into the sea of dantian energy.
With a slight thought in his mind, "sweet rain" suddenly fell from the sky above the sea of qi, and his cultivation gradually improved in the drizzle of sweet rain, gradually approaching the seventh level of Nascent Soul.
Zhao Sheng didn't care much about his progress in cultivation. He went straight to the torn spiral jade plate and fell into deep thought.
As his cultivation became more and more advanced, the price he paid for traveling through the heavens and the sky became increasingly greater.
Back when there was only the Qi Refining realm, you only needed to sacrifice seven or eight grains of time and space sand to successfully travel through time.
When the Nascent Soul reaches the sixth level now, at least one space-time crystal is needed to achieve a minimum sacrifice success.
Just take the example just now, he sacrificed an entire piece of Dongtian Jade at once, but he only stayed in the Endless Building for less than half a day.
This is the big difference in size. Pebbles and boulders are both stones, but when thrown the same distance, the energy consumed is hugely different.
It is foreseeable in the future that as his cultivation continues to improve, his demand for time and space treasures will only increase, and in the end it is likely to become a "bottomless pit."
Thinking of the "miserable" scenes that would inevitably appear in the future, Zhao Sheng was horrified, and suddenly realized that this was most likely a "conspiracy" set in advance by some unimaginable power.
Once you get used to the pleasure of rapid advancement in cultivation, no one will be willing to work hard, and will inevitably try to "take shortcuts".
What's more, there are countless treasures in Yukong Fairy Heaven, and great opportunities that are rare in the outside world can be seen everywhere, and no one can resist its temptation!
Therefore, whether the true immortals who are high above or the immortal cultivators who are struggling in the sea of suffering in the lower world, they are all like moths flying into the flame, constantly entering the heaven of space, and even falling deep into it, unable to extricate themselves!
Zhao Sheng pondered on the spot for a long time, then suddenly sighed slightly, then his body swayed and disappeared from the stone room in an instant.
…
A few years passed by,
Late that night, a mountain peak deep in the mountains suddenly shook violently. Purple thunder broke through the earth and rocks and shot up into the sky. They intertwined with each other in mid-air and exploded, turning into a sea of purple thunder, illuminating the nearby mountains.
It was as bright as day, and birds and animals fled in all directions in terror.
Deep in the heart of the mountain, in a newly opened huge cave, on a pitted stone platform, there are many gleaming treasures, as many as seven or eight kinds.
The most eye-catching ones are several pieces of milky white metal the size of a human head and a pile of crystal clear jade bones.
The milky white metal glowed with electric light from time to time, and there was a faint aura of destruction coming from inside.
Jade bones are carefully selected powerful jade bones.
In addition to these two things, there are also rare treasures such as Ten Thousand Years Lightning Strike Wood, Yuan Magnetic Liang Yi Stone, Tianxin Lang Jade, Ten Thousand Transformations Thunder Water, etc. on the stone platform.
However, at this time, they were like a bunch of inconspicuous things, piled messily on the stone platform, but their owners didn't bother to take a look.
Zhao Sheng stood next to the stone platform, playing with a purple rhombus crystal with both hands, gently rubbing the surface of the crystal, feeling the vast destructive fluctuations filling the interior of the object under its calm appearance.
This object is the ancient Thunder Tribulation Crystal that was originally traded.
Over the past twenty years, apart from occasionally refining elixirs during his training, he spent his remaining free time exploring the secrets of this mysterious crystal.
After more than twenty years of exploration and research, Zhao Sheng roughly deduced the true appearance of this object.
"The Ancient Thunder Tribulation Crystal" is just a name given by people. In fact, this object should be an "arm bone".
To be precise, a certain great master in the Tribulation Realm unfortunately fell under the Nine-Nine Ascension Immortal Tribulation. Fortunately, one of his arm bones did not turn into ashes, but survived.
What's even more amazing is that there is still a trace of divine thunder and calamity inside this object.
After tens of thousands of repeated inductions, Zhao Sheng confirmed that this divine thunder tribulation intention was the Zixiao divine thunder, one of the nine tribulation divine thunders, and it was the most authentic and extreme one.
In other words, the unlucky Tribulation Master happened to be bombarded to pieces by the Zixiao Divine Thunder.
As time goes by, this ray of divine thunder and calamity has become one with the arm bones, forming some kind of indescribable balance.
Zhao Sheng has studied this thing for many years, but his understanding of it is not even superficial. Occasionally, he will have flashes of inspiration, but after experiments, most of them end in failure, with little gain.
Despite this, Zhao Sheng remained obsessed with this thing and never had any thoughts of getting discouraged or giving up.
Although the level of power contained in this object is frighteningly high and vaguely exceeds the limit of his current perception, this object is undoubtedly the best "imitation" object.
From this object, Zhao Sheng vaguely saw a hint of the mystery beyond Return to the Void, which is... the transformation and unity between all things in the world and the magic power of the soul.
In fact, Zhao Sheng should have thought of this a long time ago. You must know that one of the most obvious characteristics of the Void Return Half Immortal is the body of golden muscles and jade bones.
The evolution from mortal flesh to golden flesh and jade bones is the beginning of "turning stone into gold", that is, the transformation of the physical body into mana.
In ancient legends, immortals often have the ability to "turn stone into gold".
This legend actually implies the mystery of returning to the void.
The realm of returning to the virtual world is only the starting point for the transformation of the physical body into mana, and the realm of integration is the embodiment of the perfect integration of the soul, mana and body again.
From then on, the power of the combined state can completely shed the mortal body. Not only can it be gathered and dispersed by the heart, but it can also differentiate into independent clones and travel around the heavens at will.
As for the realm of transcending tribulation, it is most likely a step where the true body, soul, and magic power all begin to become regularized.
Although the above is just a conjecture and has not been truly verified, Zhao Sheng is 90% sure that his conjecture is correct.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now in order to verify his conjecture, he used the Thunder Tribulation Crystal as a blueprint and refined many imitations, but unfortunately they all failed.
But now he had new inspiration. Before that, he had to refine the jade bones.
I saw Zhao Sheng put the crystal into his arms, then flicked his fingers, and a ray of purple lightning shot out from his fingertips, passing over half of the stone platform and falling into a palm-long jade crystal bone.
The jade crystal bone suddenly rose into the air, its whole body glowing with a thick purple color, and thunderous fire surrounded it and began to calcine its bones.
Inside the cave, thunder light shone, and purple thunder fire rolled and surged, gradually exuding a faint aura of destruction.
Zhao Sheng's eyebrows were filled with a bright light, and he released a stream of spiritual power, driving Zixiao's thunder power to "draw" one after another "tribulation" of the true text of the Great Dao inside the jade bone.
Although the real text of the word "Jie" only existed for a moment, it would disappear out of thin air. However, Zhao Sheng still patiently "wrote" the extremely complex three-dimensional configuration again and again.
As time passed bit by bit, the jade crystal bone always maintained its original state, as if there was no change at all.
However, with the Ancient Thunder Tribulation Crystal as a comparison, Zhao Sheng was delighted to find that the essence of this jade bone seemed to have undergone some subtle changes, with a faint purple color and gradually exuding a faint aura of destruction.
Everything in front of him was developing according to his vision, and Zhao Sheng suddenly had a hunch in his heart that this experiment would be fruitful.
More than twenty days flew by.
The cave was as hot as a furnace, and the surrounding walls melted into a layer of smooth molten material like glass, which reflected the colorful purple brilliance.
In mid-air, a purple diamond-shaped jade bead as big as an egg is slowly spinning. The outside is covered with a layer of purple electric light, and the inside is flowing with viscous thunder slurry, obviously exuding a strange law of fluctuation.
.
As this fluctuation continued to increase, the rhombus-shaped jade bead finally reached a certain limit. Suddenly, there was a click, and countless cracks suddenly opened on the surface. Countless dazzling lightning burst out from the cracks, and the destructive aura suddenly increased countless times.
not good!
When Zhao Sheng saw this scene, he was shocked. He stretched out his right hand and swung it upwards. He saw the diamond-shaped jade beads that were about to explode soaring into the sky like lightning and disappeared into the earth and rocks of the cave. A smooth pole appeared on the spot.
of holes.
The next second, there was only a loud rumble, and the entire cave suddenly shook violently. The surrounding cave walls suddenly opened up with huge bottomless gaps, and large amounts of thunder and fire burst out from inside.
Zhao Sheng saw that the situation was not good, and his entire body disappeared from the cave in an instant.
To the outside world, this 10,000-foot peak was surrounded by large purple thunderfires. The mountain was violently shaking, and the rocks and vegetation were silently wiped out.
After a breath, the huge mountain suddenly collapsed, and a mushroom cloud burst into the sky at the same place, and smog and dust filled the area for hundreds of miles.
High in the sky, Zhao Sheng looked down at the strange scenery of the landslide below. His face was calm and there was no trace of any emotion.
…
Soon after, countless large and small earth and rocks were cleared away, and a huge deep pit with a diameter of three hundred feet was dug out on the spot. A large pit was exposed at the bottom of the pit, and a tall figure was busy there.
The sky is getting dark quickly and night is about to fall.
Under the deep pit, Zhao Sheng dusted off the non-existent dust on his hands, then waved his hands repeatedly, pieces of jade crystal bones flew up one after another, and then streaks of purple sky thunder fell on them.
Blossoming purple thunderfires burned one after another, holding these jade bones in the air.
This time, Zhao Sheng took out the ancient thunder calamity crystal and gently threw it into the center of the thunder fire. A group of jade bones surrounded the object and began to rotate little by little.
The divine light between Zhao Sheng's brows shone continuously, and the divine thoughts struck the surface of the Thunder Tribulation Crystal like lightning.
Under the repeated bombardment of spiritual thoughts, the countless diamond-shaped sections on the surface of the Thunder Tribulation Crystal would occasionally sputter out bits of lightning, which were magnificent and mysterious.
The thunder light seemed to exist in reality, falling onto the surrounding jade bones under invisible pull, and instantly integrated into its interior, but there was no sign of explosion.
When Zhao Sheng saw this, his eyes were shining brightly, and his spiritual thoughts were bombarding the Thunder Tribulation Crystal more and more frequently. It looked a bit like blacksmithing, but also seemed to stimulate the appearance of more new phenomena in this object.
After seven days and seven nights.
In the deep pit, the purple thunder fire is still burning brightly, and the seemingly indestructible jade bones have transformed into another type of form. Some are like round beads, while others are strangely shaped, but most of them are rhombus, prism, and spike shapes.
What they have in common is that they all exude quiet and strange lawful fluctuations, and the aura of destruction seems to contain some kind of unspeakable vitality.
Zhao Sheng looked a little tired and stretched out his hand to take the intact Ancient Thunder Tribulation Crystal and put it into the Sumeru space.
Then, he took another piece of strange-shaped jade bone, put it in front of him and rubbed it carefully. His spiritual thoughts turned into countless probes, which penetrated into the inside of the jade bone little by little, sensing carefully...
Three months later.
In the newly opened cave, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on the ground, holding an animal skin in one hand, looking at it intently with a slight frown on his face, and gesticulating back and forth in the void with one hand.
On the ground beside him, thousands of monster leathers were piled up in a messy manner, each piece depicting extremely complex, layered and intertwined three-dimensional structures.
The closer the animal skin is to covering it, the more similar its three-dimensional configuration is and the more complicated it is.
Outsiders have no way of knowing what these three-dimensional configurations mean. The more Zhao Sheng repeatedly describes them, the more excited he becomes.
Because only he knows that all three-dimensional configurations are essentially "isomers" of the true text of the Avenue of Destruction.
They may represent the same Dao True Text, or they may be numerous incomplete "Destruction True Texts".
In Zhao Sheng's view, everything evolves from the word "Jie". It can be said that one word means all things, and all things have one shape!
At this time, he finally realized that he had almost gone astray and that the true text of the Great Dao was not eternal.
In fact, on the contrary, the true text of the Great Dao is changing all the time.
The "true text of the Great Dao" that each person understands is only his own understanding and embodiment of the Great Dao, and is not "universal".
This also means that there is only one avenue, but the true text of the avenue may be endless.
The reason why the True Immortal Can Nian had "good intentions" in giving the Golden Book of the Great Dao in the first place, now seems to have obviously evil intentions!
Zhao Sheng's hair suddenly stood on end, and he thought to himself: "Is it possible that he is still obsessed with evil and is still thinking that he will be reborn by borrowing his weight? Then... wouldn't the Golden Book of the Great Dao..."
Zhao Sheng's whole body was shaken when he thought of the terrible situation that might occur in the future. He quickly suppressed the bad thoughts in his mind and returned his attention to the true text of the Great Dao.
But after this distraction, his thinking efficiency suddenly dropped drastically, and the aura in his mind gradually dried up.
Time flies like water, and in the blink of an eye it is already a month later.
On this day, in the stone chamber of the cave, Zhao Sheng closed his eyes tightly, as if he was deep in thought, sitting cross-legged and motionless, with only dense lightning flashing and condensing in mid-air, as if he was trying his best to construct a concrete image.
I don't know how long it took, but he seemed to have a sudden inspiration. His eyes suddenly opened, and his pupils were filled with divine light, reflecting two extremely complex three-dimensional patterns with the flow of Tao Yun.
