Another day later, Lu Cheng went to the Witch Temple alone. He did not dare to let Qingmei follow him because according to the rules, monsters could not enter the Witch Temple. It was said that there was a kind of talisman in the Witch Temple, which was lethal to demon cultivators.

After entering the Shaman Temple, he went directly to the Library Pavilion to look for information about Hou Fu's scenic spot, from geography to history, to the thirty-six kingdoms and humanistic systems.
He found a pile of animal skin books handed down from an unknown age, which contained some weird and unreliable mythological stories.
When Lu Cheng talks about ancient history, he thinks of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
However, the animal skin book says that the ancient period was divided into the Three Emperors Period, the Hundred Clan Period and the Five Emperors Period. First there were twelve emperors, then eleven earth emperors, then nine human emperors, and then there were hundreds of clans, such as
There are the Titing clan, the Liguang clan, the Huangqin clan, the Chao clan, the Suiren clan, the Huaxu clan, the Fuxi clan... and then there are the Huangdi, Shennong, Yao, Shun, and Yu, etc.
The records in the animal skin book subverted Lu Cheng's imagination. The Witch Emperor was like the stars in the sky. There were thousands of people with names and surnames, and there were countless people without names! For example, the Fuxi family and the Nuwa family, just this
From these two families, 78 witch emperors were born! Among them, the pure-blood Fuxi clan had 24 witch emperors.
According to the description in the Animal Skin Book, the Witch Emperor and the Witch King belong to different realms.
The key points of the Witch King's practice are the eight skulls and the six magical powers; the key points of the Witch Emperor's practice are the brain, marrow sea, spiritual consciousness and Niwan Palace. Through the practice of brain marrow, he can communicate with the world and achieve the point of "creating something out of nothing".
Superpowers, such as reversing yin and yang, moving stars and changing buckets, returning to the sky and the sun, summoning rain and wind, shaking mountains and shaking the earth, dividing rivers into land, pushing mountains and filling seas, standing upright without a shadow, transforming into a fetus, changing the shape of a fetus, changing the size as desired, and flowers blooming
In an instant, the wandering god controls the air, dives into the abyss and shrinks into the ground, holds the mountain and crosses the sea, and scatters beans to form an army...
The key to the difference between the Witch King and the Witch Emperor is whether they have mastered the means of "making something out of nothing".
As described by Taoists in later generations, everything in the world starts from "nothing". From "nothing" comes "being", and from "you" develops into all things. Laozi said: "Mysterious and mysterious, the door to all wonderful things"
." "One is born, two is born, two begets three, three begets all things."
"Book of Changes" says that Wuji gives birth to Tai Chi, Tai Chi gives birth to two objects, two objects give birth to four images, and four images give birth to Bagua, until infinity. But when things begin, they first "create something out of nothing."

This theory of "creating something out of nothing" is similar to the theory of the Big Bang. The Big Bang is the origin of the universe and the beginning of time and space. Before that, everything was "nothing".
Think about nuclear fission and nuclear fusion again. Why does a small atomic nucleus contain huge energy?
Examples of making things out of nothing are not uncommon. Just like back then, Lu Cheng once used his spiritual energy to draw a tiger talisman, which evolved into the light and shadow of a ferocious tiger. It could not only scare people but also hurt people, but the tiger was fake after all!
As his skills improved, his realm became higher and higher, and the evolved tiger image became more and more rich. In the end, the tiger became alive with flesh and blood, exactly like a real tiger, which is the so-called "creating something out of nothing."
Another example is the White Emperor in the dream, who grabs gold energy from the void and casts a golden rune sword at will, which is also one of the methods of "making something out of nothing". Having this ability is a sign of the identity of the Witch Emperor. The Witch Emperor is not omnipotent.
It is also divided into different realms, including the Little Witch Emperor and the Great Witch Emperor. The Little Witch Emperor has fewer means, while the Great Witch Emperor has stronger means.
After reading the description in the animal skin book, Lu Cheng was astonished and his imagination opened up. He suspected that those great emperors might be able to control the birth and destruction of stars. Even the rise and fall of the entire universe, including the original Big Bang, mofei was caused by
Controlled by a higher "Witch God"?
Although the scientific and technological civilization on earth has made great progress, there are still many unsolved problems regarding the evolution of the universe and the origin of human beings.
Although Lu Cheng is a monk, he does not reject technological civilization. In many cases, he has to rely on modern technology. For example, the golden knives and swords he asked Quancheng Tool Factory to make were very popular at the auctions in Jinyang City.
It brought him precious cultivation materials. This is the benefit of having modern technology.
In the library, Lu Cheng, in addition to reading a bunch of history books, also saw a geography book about Hou Fu's scenic spot.
The total area of Houfu Scenic Area is unknown. Its shape is roughly ring-shaped, like an irregular "jade ring". From the inside to the outside, it ranges from 20,000 miles to 40,000 to 50,000 miles, totaling sixty or seventy countries.
, distributed on this jade ring. Each country occupies a territory ranging from large to small. The large ones have thousands of miles of land and mountains, and the small ones only have thousands of miles.
The map of the entire Shan Hai Jing world is circular, and the outermost circle is "Huangfu", including Donghuang, Nanman, Xirong, and Beidi. When Lu Cheng possessed Baikang, he appeared in the Donghuang realm, so he wanted to
If you want to go to Diji, you need to move step by step from east to west; the second circle is "Yaofu", which are also barbarian lands, just like the kind of places occupied by the Xiaojiu tribe; the third circle is "Suifu",
After preliminary planning and appeasement, for example, the Phoenix Continent; the fourth circle is the Houfu Shengjing; and the fifth circle is the Dianfu Realm; and the center is the Emperor's Realm.
This world is much bigger than Lu Cheng expected.
There are many stars in the universe. In comparison, the earth is very small, and even the sun is not big. There are countless stars bigger than the sun. A large planet may not necessarily be a star that emits heat and light. Some planets are also very large, such as
It is said that HD B is the largest known planet in the universe. This planet is big enough to hold 350 Jupiters or 450,000 Earths.
Lu Cheng came out of the Library Pavilion and came to the "Treasure Pavilion" of the Witch Temple, flipping through the list and looking for treasures. He found that the rare materials here were much more expensive than outside, but if he was lucky, he could find things that were not available outside. For example
Said that he was pleasantly surprised to find that there were hundreds of drops of "Essence of Mountains and Rivers" and two drops of "Tears of the Stars" in the Treasure Pavilion!
Lu Cheng couldn't help but ask: "How come there are the essence of mountains and rivers and the tears of stars? Where did you get these?"
The middle-aged deacon in charge of the reception was a high-level celestial witch, and replied: "Every thousand years, a batch of supplies will be sent from the Emperor's territory through the Dianfu Realm. In addition, some supplies will be sent from the markets and
Collected by the auction house. Some spirit witches and celestial witches happened to find the essence of mountains and rivers from the underground, or chased meteors and discovered the tears of the stars. Their own skills were too low and they would not be used in a short time, so they took them to the auction house for trading. A small number of them were because
Unsuccessfully auctioned, it was collected by the Shaman Temple."
Lu Cheng understood that after the Witch God's Temple received the Essence of Mountains and Tears of the Stars, it raised the price significantly, and then waited for some fool to come and buy it.
He asked: "What price?"
The middle-aged deacon replied: "A drop of the essence of mountains and rivers is sold for 10 medium-sized spirit-gathering beads, or a gold vessel weighing more than a hundred kilograms; a drop of tears of the stars is sold for one billion jade coins, or 100 spirit-gathering beads, or
