Wu Xuechan couldn't help but laugh, and took Chen Xi into the hall with a smile.
The main hall was quiet, empty, and deserted. Only in the center stood a coffin that was as smooth as jade and as clear as glass.
Strictly speaking, it is not a coffin, but a treasure. The whole body is filled with wisps of clear and radiant Taoist charm, and its appearance is transcendent.
At this moment, Zhen Liuqing's body was lying in it. She was covered by plain clothes, her black hair spread out like a waterfall, her eyes were closed, and her beautiful jade face was full of peace and tranquility.
There was a smile hanging on the corners of her lips as pale as cherry petals, as if she was having a sweet dream.
Looking at this familiar face, Chen Xi felt mixed emotions in his heart: guilt, resentment, sadness, self-blame...
When he was in the Manggu Ruins, Chen Xi learned for the first time that Zhen Liuqing was coerced by the Gongye clan, and that the extremely vicious "Black Witch God Gu" was planted in her body.
If it had not been for the timely appearance of Buddha's son Canaan, Chen Xi would have almost thought that Zhen Liuqing's body had perished and her spirit had disappeared, and she had completely left him.
Later, in order to rescue Zhen Liuqing, Chen Xi traveled through the endless star field and came to Taichu Temple in the South China Sea. After going through many twists and turns, he asked the empress to take action and completely suppressed the power of the "Black Witch God Gu" in Zhen Liuqing's body.

However, it is impossible to expel this force and resolve it, which is the fundamental reason why Zhen Liuqing has not been able to wake up.
But now, Chen Xi has a way to completely solve this problem, so although the emotions in his heart are complicated, they are more exciting and hopeful.
After a long time, Chen Xi took a deep breath and calmed down.
Only then did he realize that his senior brother Wu Xuechan had already left at some point, and he was the only one left in the empty hall.
No, there is also Zhen Liuqing.
…
Black Witch God Gu is a mysterious Gu technique that has survived from the previous era. It is almost extinct and few people have heard of it in this era.
Because of this, when they learned that Zhen Liuqing had been infected by this kind of poison, both Wu Xuechan and the Taichu Guan Guan master were helpless and could not completely eradicate this mysterious power in Zhen Liuqing's body.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Chen Xi's original plan was to go to the Gongye clan and force them to hand over the secret to solving the black witch god's poison.
However, when he returned from the land of catastrophe, everything became different.
For Chen Xi today, he can solve this problem without resorting to any external force.
The reason is very simple. He has mastered the witch's seal, the inherited brand from the previous era!
Wu is the ninth person to be robbed in the last era, and has a complete inheritance belonging to the civilization of witches.
And this black witch god Gu also comes from the Era of Witches. Under such circumstances, Chen Xi only needs to completely refine the "Witch Seal", and he can easily find a way to crack the black witch god Gu!
This is exactly why Chen Xi felt like "riding a donkey to find a donkey" just now.
However, even though he has figured out all this, there is still a problem facing Chen Xi, and that is how to completely refine the "Witch Seal"!
Because at this moment, this kind of era brand is imprisoned in the fragments of the river map, and it is a bit troublesome to completely refine it.
…
After sitting cross-legged quietly in front of the jade-like coffin and meditating for a long time, Chen Xi finally made a move.
He took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and his whole body's energy circulated on its own, with wisps of dazzling and sacred purple-gold brilliance, making his temperament even more transcendent.
In the sea of consciousness, Chen Xi's thoughts were like a tide, and he began to explore the river map that had fallen into silence.
It didn't take long for him to locate the fragment of the river map that imprisoned the "Witch Seal".
At this moment, Chen Xi became extremely cautious, his heart was as pure as dust, and there was no ripple in the ancient well, just like the full moon shining on the blue sky, and he entered an extremely calm state.
He began to separate out a ray of thought, carefully entered the seal of the witch, carefully explored, carefully felt...
In a daze, Chen Xi seemed to have entered a prehistoric world. In this world, witches were rampant, monsters were raging, and there was a rough, primitive, ancient and mysterious atmosphere everywhere.
The way of heaven here is equally unique, filled with the supreme "breath of witchcraft", like ethereal smoke, densely spread in every corner of the world.
Chen Xi knew clearly that the "aura of witchcraft" was the "Tao" of this world, representing a supreme and inviolable rule of order.
Soon, various strange phenomena began to pass before Chen Xi's eyes, flashing like fleeting shadows, like the passage of time, like a dream.
Among those visions, there are altars where great witches practice, battlefields where conquests are fought, scenes where enlightenment and heaven-defying tribulations are achieved, there are scenes where people die from tribulations and their bodies are destroyed and their Tao disappears...
There were so many visions, none of them were the same. They were all things that Chen Xi had never heard of or seen before, and they were all strange and bizarre.
Until later, Chen Xi felt that his eyes were dazzled for a while, and those visions began to become distorted, turning into pieces of colorful and magnificent light, whistling in the years.
boom!
I don't know how long it took, but Chen Xi felt as if he was struck by lightning, all the illusions suddenly exploded, and he woke up completely.
At this time, he realized that the ray of thought he had penetrated into the "Witch Seal" was shattered and disappeared.
"That should be the world of witches... All the visions show the power of change of an era. If you want to explore the power of inheriting civilization... just relying on a ray of thought is not enough..."
Chen Xi murmured in his heart, not surprised but happy, because he had vaguely captured a method that could refine the Witch Seal.
No, it should be said to be how to refine the Witch Seal from the River Diagram.
Because as early as in the Land of Catastrophe, he himself had deduced enough methods to refine the eight era brands.
As we all know, each era brand represents a completely different era civilization, and the inheritance contained in it can be imagined how vast and obscure it is.
It is almost impossible to refine them all. For example, among the eight victims of the catastrophe in the land, they have been searching for countless years, not to mention how much effort has been spent. In the end, only
Only the "Tao" who responded to the tribulation in the first era achieved this step.
However, with the wisdom of "Tao", he could only refine two epochal brands. When refining the third epochal brand, he almost went crazy and died.
From this, we can deduce how vast and immeasurable the secrets contained in these epochal imprints are, and how difficult it will be to refine them one by one.
However, all this is no longer a problem for Chen Xi, because he has already found a completely feasible method to solve it.
That is Fu Dao!
Whether it is the civilization of Tao, the civilization of Confucianism, the civilization of demons, the civilization of Buddhism, or the four civilizations of illusion, soul, martial arts, and witchcraft, they all have "patterns" and "scriptures".
Everything can be evolved into Taoist patterns, magic patterns, Confucianism patterns, soul patterns, phantom patterns, martial patterns, and witch patterns. Similarly, everything can also be evolved into Taoist scriptures, magic scriptures, Confucian scriptures, soul scriptures, and fantasy scriptures.
Wu Jing, Wu Jing.
In short, all the secrets of civilization can be deduced, explained and replaced by Fu Tao!
This is how Chen Xi deduced it.
Unfortunately, when he was eager to refine these eight era brands, he overlooked one thing. Although he had the method, his own strength was simply unable to control the power of these eight era brands, and he was almost robbed in the end.
Fortunately, He Tu woke up in time and helped Chen Xi resolve this disaster invisibly.
But now, the situation has changed.
The eight epochal brands were imprisoned in the fragments of the River Map, and just now Chen Xi tested it again. With the power of his mind, he could enter the Witcher's Seal and sense the inheritance it possessed.
Under such circumstances, Chen Xi only needs to use his "Tao of Talisman" power as a means to interpret and understand the witchcraft inheritance in it, which is enough to completely refine it!
…
Wow
Without any further hesitation, Chen Xi once again separated his thoughts and entered the witch's seal.
Different from last time, this time, Chen Xi had concentrated all his thoughts and entered the Seal of Witchcraft.
This is very dangerous. If something unexpected happens, it can cause his mind to collapse and his soul to suffer severe damage. In serious cases, he may even become possessed.
However, things in this world are often like this. If you want to gain something, you must take corresponding risks.
Chen Xi has made up his mind and will not be tied down by this.
Soon, the familiar vision of "Witch Civilization" appeared again, and it began to appear in Chen Xi's mind like a fleeting glimpse.
When these visions began to gradually become distorted and turned into scenes like colorful ribbons, Chen Xi violently activated the power of Talisman Dao and began to analyze and deduce the power of all these epochal changes.
boom!
In just an instant, the colorful scene that appeared in Chen Xi's mind suddenly exploded and turned into countless small and dense rains of light.
Those light rains are too dense, like a vast ocean, dense and overwhelming, these are the fragments of the witch civilization!
Each fragment is a unique and small inheritance, and the densely packed fragments together build the entire witch civilization.
What Chen Xi has to do at this moment is to use the power of talismans he has mastered to thoroughly understand the inheritance contained in each fragment of civilization, and then replace them all with talismans!
Whoosh!
A ray of thought came out and instantly locked onto one of the civilization fragments. At the same time, a completely unfamiliar inheritance mystery appeared in Chen Xi's mind.
That is the inheritance in the Age of Witches, unique and obscure.
For Chen Xi, who is new to this kind of inheritance, it is obviously very challenging to use Talisman Dao to completely deduce its secrets and finally replace it with Talisman Patterns.
However, Chen Xi has never experienced any dangerous problems in his practice so far. The moment he locked onto this fragment of civilization, he already started taking action.
buzzing
Wisps of thoughts evolved into the tiniest runes, penetrating into the fragments of civilization like delicate tentacles, and soon covering them all.
Then, these runes began to glow, running like breathing, echoing each other.
At the same time, various perceptions began to boil in Chen Xi's heart, which were strange and obscure, filling his heart like a tide.
Even though it is just a fragment of civilization, as small as a drop in the ocean, the secrets of inheritance contained in it are extremely astonishing.
It took Chen Xi three full months to understand all its secrets.
Buzz!
In the end, this fragment of civilization suddenly changed and turned into a strange rune pattern. With a whoosh, it was submerged in the dense rain of light.
Those light rains are all fragments of the civilization of witches. They can be said to be as dense as the vast starry sky, dense and overwhelming.
Now, it took Chen Xi three full months to refine one of the fragments of the River Map. It can be imagined how many years it would take to completely refine those fragments of civilization.
However, at this time, Chen Xi obviously no longer cared about this. After refining this fragment of civilization, he continued to lock the second fragment of the river map without stopping, unwilling to waste any time.
Three months later again.
Chen Xi refined the second fragment of civilization.
One year has passed.
Chen Xi refined four fragments of civilization.
Two years have passed.
Chen Xi refined nine fragments of civilization.
Three years have passed.
Chen Xi refined fifteen fragments of civilization.
…
Perhaps even Chen Xi himself had not thought that he had already spent three years just refining the "Witch Seal".
The fragments of civilization obtained were only fifteen pieces. Compared with the dense and overwhelming fragments of civilization, they were just like a wave in the vast ocean, not worth mentioning at all.
If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would have given up long ago. After all, if calculated at this speed, it would take more than ten thousand years to refine all the fragments of civilization, and it would be impossible to do it.
But Chen Xi didn't do that.
He didn't even have this thought. From the moment he started to use the power of Talisman to refine these fragments of civilization, all his mind had been immersed in it, without any distractions, and without any other thoughts.
fourth year.
Chen Xi once again refined the seven civilizational brands.
fifth year.
Chen Xi once again refined eight pieces of civilization brand.
Sixth year.
Chen Xi once again refined the nine civilization brands.
From the changes in the past three years, it can be clearly seen that the speed at which Chen Xi refines fragments of civilization is constantly improving every year. Unfortunately, this progress is still very small. Each year, he only refines one more piece of civilization than the last year.
Just fragments.
But when the seventh year was reached, everything began to undergo surprising changes. It could even be described as a turning point.
Because in this seventh year, Chen Xi refined a total of thirty-six civilization imprints, which was four times the number in the sixth year.
And when the eighth year came, the amount of refining civilization marks Chen Xi had once again doubled several times, reaching as much as one hundred and eighty yuan! Fully five times the amount in the seventh year!
In the ninth year, there were six times more than in the eighth year.
In the tenth year, there were seven times more than in the ninth year.
In the eleventh year, there were eight times more than in the tenth year.
…
The changes are doubling year by year, and the speed at which Chen Xi refines the fragments of civilization has gradually reached an appalling level.
It can be clearly seen that now he is no longer satisfied with refining only one fragment of civilization, but is now refining multiple fragments of civilization at the same time.
At the same time, the speed at which he refines fragments of civilization is getting faster and faster, and the time is getting shorter and shorter...
Everything is progressing by leaps and bounds, which is shocking!
All this is because at the beginning, Chen Xi was completely unfamiliar with everything about the civilization of witchcraft. When he went to deduce the refining process, he would inevitably stumble and encounter various difficulties.
But as he refined more and more civilization imprints, he gradually became familiar with everything contained in the wizarding civilization. It was no longer as unfamiliar as before, and he naturally became more comfortable and proficient in refining.
This is like learning to write. When you first start learning, you need to remember various radicals and strokes. It takes thousands of practices before you can write every word neatly.
But as you write more and practice more, no matter how unfamiliar the characters are, as long as you remember the strokes, you can write them fluently and freely.
For Chen Xi, refining these fragments of civilization is like this. However, if these fragments of civilization are compared to individual words, then Chen Xi is like a tentacle monster at the moment, able to write dozens or hundreds of words at the same time!
…
Fifteenth year.
Most of the dense and overwhelming fragments of civilization were refined by Chen Xi and turned into strange runes, flickering and twinkling like stars.
Sixteenth year.
Chen Xi's refining speed became increasingly terrifying, and he could dissolve a fragment of civilization with just a sweep of his mind!
Seventeenth year.
Only less than 20% of the dense civilization fragments transformed by the Witch's Seal remain.
Eighteenth year.
All fragments of civilization have been refined!
It was also in this year that the "Seal of Witches" as an era was imprinted in Chen Xi's mind completely changed.
It turned into a rune as dense as the starry sky. Those runes were strange and mysterious, dancing like a school of fish.
However, they appear to be runes, but they contain the purest witchcraft inheritance!
Nineteenth year.
Under Chen Xi's deduction, the dense runes began to connect with each other to form rune patterns.
Then, these rune patterns were combined together again, like divine chains of order, and began to correspond to each other.
Twenty years.
The divine chain of order derived from dense runes suddenly changed, evolved into multiple visions, and began to change continuously.
Those visions are clearly the civilizational changes of the "Witch World" that were first reflected!
However, these visions now have been completely replaced by runes, and the scene that appears in Chen Xi's mind is completely different.
It was like a piece of rough jade revealing its most essential essence, like a young woman taking off her clothes, and every inch of skin on her body was exposed. All the mysteries were clearly captured in Chen Xi's mind and presented in his heart.
At this point, after twenty years of work, all the inherited imprints from the witch civilization have been refined by Chen Xi!
boom!
Almost at the same time, Chen Xi, who was sitting cross-legged, had no time to feel happy. He felt a shock all over his body. The energy in his body was like a volcano that had been silent for a long time. It rumbled and vibrated, and began to climb at an incredible speed!
At this moment, even his cultivation and strength underwent an astonishing transformation along with the changes in Qi.
This transformation lasted for a full month before calmness returned.
And when Chen Xi woke up completely, he discovered that his cultivation level had once again achieved a breakthrough!
ps: Here is a 5,000-word chapter. I have something to go out tonight, so I can only update this.
