Chapter five hundred and fifty-fifth volume of ancient scriptures
Chapter 555: An ancient scripture
Ye Fan did not tell his real name, otherwise he would have caused endless trouble even in the land of Zhongzhou. The turmoil he caused in the Eastern Wasteland was too great.
Now, even the heroes from the five realms of Qishi Mansion have vaguely heard that there is a monster in Donghuang, so you can imagine it.
"Young master, I can't repay your life-saving kindness. I said I would give you a scroll of ancient scriptures, but I didn't bring it with me. Just let me go. I will help you completely recover your strength when the time comes." Yudie said with a smile.
Ye Fan hesitated for a while. He really yearned for that ancient scripture, but he did not want to enter a super ancient dynasty. This was not a dynasty created by mortals.
There is no doubt that this is an ancient dynasty that belongs to the top monks. It is an ancient inheritance. The emperor and others must be top powers.
"Princess!" A shout came from the distant sky, and a group of people rushed over quickly, and were close in the blink of an eye.
Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat. Among them were a supreme master and five half-step masters. The last one was a tall and heroic young man who was in the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.
"Grand Master." Yudie was completely relieved after seeing that extremely powerful man.
"Princess, I hope you're fine!" The young man followed the Grand Master with a smile on his face and spoke first with an eager look on his face.
"Princess, is there really dragon marrow in the ancient city of Spring and Autumn?" the supreme expert asked. Suddenly he smelled a hint of fragrance and showed a look of surprise.
"The legendary dragon marrow was indeed revealed, and I finally got it first." Princess Yudie nodded.
There are frequent frictions on the border between Chiyang Kingdom and Anping Kingdom. Recently, some people saw dragon aura rising into the sky. They speculated that a dragon marrow may be born. Both countries have powerful people to rush to it as soon as possible.
Ye Fan was surprised. There was indeed a magical object on Yudie's body. His feeling was not wrong. Although it could not be compared with the elixir of immortality, it could prolong life for hundreds of years and was an unparalleled treasure.
There are many dragon veins in Zhongzhou, and the dragon marrow is generated from the essence of thousands of veins. It is extremely rare and precious, but it is difficult to find. In the eyes of the powerful, whose longevity is about to dry up, it is a priceless treasure.
A normal dragon marrow can prolong life for a few years, which is good. A dragon marrow that can extend a life span of a hundred years is rare in the world, and may not be seen even in dozens of lifetimes.
"It's great to welcome the princess back to the court!" Master Xiao was very excited. He was extremely powerful and could guess what kind of divine object it was from the smell, so he did not open the small white jade cauldron.
"The princess is indeed very lucky!" Next to him, Xiao Mingyuan, the grandson of Master Xiao, laughed, then glanced at Ye Fan casually and said, "Is he the princess's sworn soldier?"
"Thanks to Brother Ye for rescuing me this time, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to escape..." Princess Yudie introduced, briefly telling the story.
Master Xiao nodded, glanced at Ye Fan, and said nothing.
"If you can escape from a powerful man, you must be the best young master in the world. Why didn't you see my brother in Qishi Mansion?" Xiao Mingyuan asked.
"I was delayed due to some things and missed the opportunity." Ye Fan shook his head and sighed.
"That's such a pity." Xiao Mingyuan smiled flatly.
"Uncle Qi fell behind, I don't know what's going on now." Princess Yudie frowned, her hair danced lightly, her skin was white and shiny, and her beautiful eyes on her face were full of aura, fresh and refined.
"He can protect himself and nothing will happen to him," Taishi Xiao said.
"The dragon marrow, which can last for hundreds of years, is a divine product. I guess not many people in Chiyang Kingdom know about it. Grandpa, do you want to take action? Go rescue Grandpa Qi and kill those people cleanly to avoid leaking the secret."
A cold smile appeared on Xiao Mingyuan's lips.
Ye Fan's heart trembled. This person had some intentions. Could it be that he wanted to silence him too? If so, he was really a white-eyed wolf.
"Every great power has boundless power and is difficult to kill. But it doesn't matter. The dragon marrow already belongs to its owner, and they won't come to take it away." Master Xiao shook his head.
Ye Fan wanted to leave without the ancient scriptures, but Yudie persuaded him to stay, saying: "Brother Ye is my savior, how can I leave like this?"
Xiao Mingyuan didn't say anything, just glanced at Ye Fan lightly.
"Princess invites you, you'd better go." Next to him, the extremely powerful Master Xiao locked him with a ray of energy. Ye Fan could not retreat, and he couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart.
Anping Kingdom has a vast territory, no one knows how many thousands of miles, and it is much larger than a mortal kingdom.
Along the way south, the mountains and rivers are majestic and the rivers and mountains are picturesque. All the resources on this vast land belong to the upper-class practitioners of this ancient country, and they pass on the unique knowledge through the country.
In Zhongzhou, there are four immortal dynasties. They are behemoths. From ancient times to the present, after hundreds of thousands of years, they have been extremely prosperous and no one can compete with them.
In addition, there are various schools of thought and hundreds of religions, which are also unparalleled immortal inheritances. Some of them are even older than the four great dynasties, and their foundations are not inferior.
At the same time, there are nine ancient kingdoms, which are not as powerful as the four great dynasties, but are also extremely terrifying. They have been established for 78,000 to 80,000 years, including Anping Kingdom and Chiyang Kingdom.
"Such a huge territory..." Ye Fan was in a daze. He crossed the void several times and crossed endless mountains and rivers before arriving at the capital of Anping.
This ancient city is majestic, extremely majestic, and covers an extremely large area. It is like an immortal city in the sky, exuding the atmosphere of ancient vicissitudes.
The city gate is so tall that dozens of wild beasts can ride side by side without being crowded. The walls are mottled and have mana fluctuations on them. If a powerful enemy attacks, the divine light will overflow and protect the entire ancient city.
The city is very quiet, without any hustle and bustle of the city. It is completely different from the bustling scene that Ye Fan imagined. It is mainly quiet and peaceful, and it is almost difficult to see pedestrians.
"This is……"
Ye Fan was shocked. The ancient streets were full of auspiciousness. In many ancient buildings and gardens, there were flowing springs and waterfalls, towering ancient trees, and the fragrance of elixirs.
This is not like an ancient imperial city that has been around for tens of thousands of years. Rather, it is like a remote mountain gate where no mortals can be seen. This place is a holy land for cultivation.
"Are you a little surprised?" Princess Yudie smiled slightly and said, "We are monks. The purpose of establishing the dynasty is to make better use of resources for cultivation, not to pursue glory and wealth."
Anping Kingdom also has mortal cities, and they are very numerous, but their imperial city is not included in this list. It is a place of cultivation for the upper-class rulers.
In the center of the city, the purple air rises to the sky, forming a dense cloud, transforming into the shape of a dragon. At first glance, it is the place where the dragon veins gather, and the essence of the earth flows, making it an excellent place for practice.
"Zhongzhou is different from Donghuang. There are many underground ancestors. Many supreme sects will build cities to cultivate the essence of heaven and earth and evolve into a pure land of cultivation." Yudie smiled.
When Ye Fan heard this for the first time, he immediately felt very strange. Zhongzhou was indeed very different from Donghuang. Many great religions were not necessarily hidden in the mountains.
Building a city, nourishing the divine beauty, evolving the avenues of heaven and earth, and enlightening the dragon veins and ancestral roots can make a pure land become more spiritually rich and become a divine kingdom for spiritual practice.
In Zhongzhou, headed by the four immortal dynasties, their imperial capitals have almost evolved into heavenly capitals, like the coming of the Kingdom of God!
"This is an ancient book that explains the great way of nature, but it is difficult for ordinary people to cultivate it..." Princess Yudie sent an ancient book.
Obviously, this is not a complete ancient scripture, but just a volume of notes. Ye Fan took it in his hand and read it carefully, feeling very speechless.
This sutra describes the way of nature and contains the meaning of transcending the world without struggle. It has no secret techniques or mystical methods. No matter how we look at it, it looks like an ancient book for cultivating one's nature.
However, if you think about it carefully, you can also find that it is extraordinary and contains the natural way, which is very mysterious. If you cultivate your mind and nature, if you follow them all, your state of mind can be sublimated.
But it is too different. Unless you are an immortal who does not eat the fireworks of the world, otherwise everyone in the world has seven emotions and six desires. How could you complete this handbook? It is useless to Ye Fan.
"This ancient scripture..." Ye Fan really didn't know what to say.
"It is said that this was written by a great emperor when he retired to seclusion in his later years, but later generations did not understand the essence and failed to complete it." Princess Yudie apologized slightly.
"This ancient scripture...if you can cultivate it, you can become an immortal." Ye Fan muttered.
"This was copied by the princess herself. Most people can't take a look at it. Don't underestimate it. In the past, ancient saints have borrowed it." Next to it, an old guard spoke.
"Did the ancient saints ever achieve it?" Ye Fan asked.
"No."
Ye Fan thought for a while, then put it away and kept it as a guide for growing flowers and grass. If there is a chance to plant the elixir of death in the future, it may be useful.
"I know I owe you Master Ye. Let's do this. I'll get a drop of dragon marrow to help the master recover his vitality. Furthermore, I request from my father to give you a sacred place in the world of cultivation, which can speed up your cultivation by one or two times."
Princess Yudie turned and left.
"Is there such a place?" Ye Fan was surprised.
"Build a city, cultivate the essence of heaven and earth, and mark the supreme road. After a long time, it will naturally evolve into a sacred land for cultivation." The old guard explained.
Ye Fan was surprised, Zhongzhou was indeed extraordinary and impressive.
Not long after, Xiao Mingyuan appeared and entered this mansion with mountains and rivers and gurgling spiritual springs. After learning about the situation, he showed a strange look and said: "Is it the 'Purple Dragon Terrace' or the 'Fire Phoenix Ridge'?
It’s a holy place for spiritual practice.”
When he knew that Princess Yudie wanted to give Ye Fan a drop of dragon marrow, Xiao Mingyuan's expression froze, and he laughed and said: "I'm afraid those two sacred lands already have owners. I'll go take a look for you. Anping Country has a radius of 100
Thousands of miles away and a vast territory, we can definitely pick out one or two holy lands."
Soon after, Ye Fan received news that the old emperor of Anping Kingdom was going to give him a piece of territory and asked him to become a lord, which made him laugh and cry.
"What's the use of the land I want?" He secretly cursed and planned to leave.
"Congratulations, that was the residence of a great emperor in his later years, and he must have finally passed away there." Xiao Mingyuan appeared and told such a piece of news.
Ye Fan wanted to leave, but at this moment he was shocked. It was really appalling for a great emperor to live in a place where he lived in his later years. He would definitely have to go there.
"It's very close to Qishi Mansion. If you go there to become a lord, the princess and I can visit you often. We both practice in Qishi Mansion." Xiao Mingyuan patted his shoulder.
Xiao Mingyuan left. Ye Fan glanced at his back and asked the old guard next to him, "Is that place special?"
"This..." The old guard hesitated for a moment, then saw Xiao Mingyuan disappearing, and then said: "Over the endless years, I don't know how many lords have died inexplicably."
"What?!" Ye Fan was shocked, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he thought for a long time before saying: "I want to see what's weird."
"Young man, I advise you not to go. The past lords were just as disbelieving as you. They wanted to get the secrets of the ancient emperor, but they all lost their lives."
Ye Fan learned that this was a fiefdom of the Xiao family, and it was now divided. He could guess a thing or two without thinking carefully.
"I have no grudge against Xiao Mingyuan, why does he want to kill me?" He quickly thought of Princess Yudie, the third most beautiful woman in Zhongzhou. Could it be because of her?
"Is it close to Qishi Mansion?" Ye Fan asked.
"It's not far apart." The old guard nodded, implying that if all the monsters from the five realms gathered in that place, there would be chaos, and he advised him not to suffer.
