Chapter 734 The ancient tribe opened the passage, the sword fairy under the divine bridge
Staring at the ancient palace, I felt a little nervous.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Qingyuan decided to go inside and take a look.
"clatter..."
He walked forward slowly, keeping his eyes on the open palace door, and tightened his hands.
The palace door has complex power, and the scene inside cannot be seen with the naked eye, it is completely dark.
I think only by walking in can we know what's going on inside.
There is no obstruction and you can reach the outside of the palace gate in no time. If you take another step forward, you can enter the ancient palace.
Unknown places always make people feel awe.
After being mentally prepared, Chen Qingyuan pursed her lips tightly and slowly raised her left foot.
With a "click" sound, he stepped into the door with his left foot, and half of his body passed through the palace door.
"puff--"
Chen Qingyuan immediately took his right foot and entered the ancient palace with his whole body. This process was like breaking through a layer of water film.
In an instant, the darkness was no longer in front of me, and the picture was very clear.
On the first floor of the ancient palace, there is an extremely wide hall. There are huge pillars with dark red paint on both sides. There are six on each side. If you raise your eyes slightly, you can't see the top of the giant pillars. The top is blurry, like chaos.
Bronze candles hung on every wall. They ignited as Chen Qingyuan came in, illuminating the hall and forcing the darkness to hide in the corners.
I glanced at it and counted it in my mind. There were ninety-nine ancient bronze lamps in total, arranged in an orderly manner and containing profound meaning.
In the front corner on the left, there is a bookshelf with hundreds of palm-sized jade slips placed on it. Because of the protection of ancient laws, the jade slips are still well preserved and not damaged after hundreds of thousands of years.
In the corner on the right, there is a simple stone table and a stone chair without a backrest.
The tables and chairs have gone through a long period of time, leaving very obvious mottled marks on their surfaces.
On the stone table, there is a complete tea set, which seems to be integrated with the table and looks like it has not been used for many years.
Faintly, Chen Qingyuan could smell a faint scent of tea.
In the rest of the hall, there are some simple daily utensils.
In the corner of the left hand corner, close to the bookshelf, there is a staircase, which should lead to the high point of the ancient palace.
"Go over and have a look."
Chen Qingyuan looked around and decided to go to the bookshelf.
We moved forward cautiously and encountered no danger.
He tentatively stretched out his hand towards a jade slip on the bookshelf, but it did not arouse the rejection of the rules in the palace.
There are no restrictions on the jade slips and they are available for reading.
Therefore, Chen Qingyuan separated a ray of spiritual consciousness and opened the jade slip.
"The ultimate Yin and Yang technique: observing the sun and moon, discussing Yin and Yang..."
This is a superior yin and yang method.
Unfortunately, Chen Qingyuan was not interested in this Taoist art and looked away after a few glances.
"Can you take it away?"
If we can get these many jade slips from the outside world, we will definitely make a lot of money by putting them in the auction house. In the next hundred years, we can squander the spiritual stones without worrying at all.
However, these jade slips were left by ancient powerful men, and there must be special restrictions engraved on them. I wonder if they can leave this ancient palace.
"Give it a try."
Chen Qingyuan took this jade slip and walked directly to the door of the palace.
The first time I tried, I threw the jade slip outside the palace.
"Whoosh!"
As soon as the jade slip touched the barrier of the palace door, it was quickly bounced away and returned to the bookshelf on its own.
"Failed." Chen Qingyuan frowned slightly, turned around and walked back to the bookshelf, picked up the jade slip again, and planned to take it out. As long as he succeeded, everything in the ancient palace would be emptied.
Evacuate!
Not a single one left!
Even if the charm of stone tables and benches has faded, you can still make a fortune selling antiques, and some people want to study them.
"Pfft"
After passing through the barrier of the palace gate, Chen Qingyuan walked outside.
Looking down, I found that the jade slip in my hand had disappeared at some point.
"Failed again, alas!"
Chen Qingyuan returned to the palace and found that the jade slips had returned to their original positions.
It seems that trying to empty the bookshelves and make a fortune is simply not feasible.
"never mind."
Chen Qingyuan sighed softly and could only give up.
As for copying the contents of the jade slips, there is no need. The reason why ancient jade slips are precious is because they contain indescribable Taoist charms, which can help practitioners understand Taoism.
The value of replica jade slips has dropped significantly.
What's more important is that without sufficient strength, the mental content of superior Taoism cannot be reproduced, and it is extremely easy to suffer backlash.
"Hey, what is this?"
I had just been blinded by the desire for money, and now I discovered that there was a purple jade slip placed on the highest place of the bookshelf. There was only one of them, and it seemed very special.
"Open it and take a look."
Chen Qingyuan took the purple jade slip and looked at it with his spiritual consciousness.
"Buzz!"
The light fluctuations of law are like ripples of water, with gentle power.
Purple Jade Slip, First Sentence - Tongyang's Autobiography.
Seeing this, Chen Qingyuan suddenly woke up.
The word "Tongyang" engraved on the stone tablet when we first climbed the mountain was not a place name, but a person's name.
"Zhenren Tongyang, a native of the Evergreen Star Territory on the southwest border of the Northern Wilderness. Originally a scholar in the mortal world, he was the top scholar in high school at the age of twenty-five, became the prime minister at the age of thirty-seven, and is a highly respected minister."
"For thirty years, I have worked hard to assist the king, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. At the age of sixty-seven, I resigned from office and went into seclusion. I mistakenly found an ancient book, entered Taoism overnight, and started practicing."
"After practicing Taoism for seventy years, I climbed to the golden elixir and traveled around mountains and rivers. Only then did I realize how low my vision was in the past. I resolved to follow the Tao wholeheartedly and wanted to compete with God."
"..."
The jade slips record the life experience of Tongyang Zhenren, which is extremely exciting and legendary.
As a mortal, he possesses the talent to govern the world.
Embark on the path of spiritual practice, rise from the bottom, sweep through the thorns ahead, and become invincible.
In the end, Master Tongyang reached the pinnacle of an era step by step, touching the realm of quasi-emperor, and could be said to be invincible in the world.
When I reached the Quasi-Emperor, I realized how extraordinary this world was and that there was still a way ahead. However, the way forward was blocked and I could not break through the broken bridge for the rest of my life.
After recognizing the reality, Master Tongyang returned to his hometown in the Northern Wasteland, built a mausoleum for himself, passed down his legacy throughout his life, and died in depression.
"He is a person from about half a million years ago."
There are some time descriptions recorded in the jade slips, which can be roughly deduced.
"Senior, I want to find a successor."
Chen Qingyuan glanced at the surroundings again, and seemed to see the lonely expression of Emperor Tongyang sitting on the stone bench, holding a tea cup and looking out the window.
I spent my entire life unable to cross the broken bridge, leaving endless regrets.
"The Way of Yin and Yang."
Through the jade slips, Chen Qingyuan learned about the Taoist path of Emperor Tongyang, which was not helpful to him.
The sun, moon, stars, distinction between men and women, Tai Chi and Bagua, etc., all contain the laws of yin and yang.
If you can harness the power of yin and yang, it will be difficult to find an opponent if you look at an era.
The quasi-emperor Tongyang not only succeeded in the Tao of Yin and Yang, but also walked his own path. If it were not for the imprisonment of heaven and earth and the defects of the divine bridge, it would really be possible for him to attain the Tao and become emperor.
"What else is up there?"
Chen Qingyuan flipped through other jade slips, which contained some exercises and some historical records from ancient times.
