Simultaneous Travel: Becoming a Legend in the Heavens.

Chapter 241 Test and the Giant Snake

The Shiva Temple bracelet did not exist in real history, but in this world, Milarepa became a famous monk, and the bracelet he left behind after his death became a magical tool.

In addition to spells, masks and magic, this world also has many magical instruments, including the diamond-shaped cannon in the nameless temple, the cursed Jilani emerald, the magic paper of the origami thief, the memory gem, the Monkey King puppet, etc.

The most powerful of these is naturally the famous history book of time.

The world can be modified at will without any prerequisites, and even the lost time and character parameters can be changed. It can be said that the script is modified from a high level.

In the original novel, apart from the Shiva Temple bracelet, the Black Tiger Afudo was shown to grow two arms, which is actually not very useful, but Lu Ke certainly didn't find this thing just to cosplay as Ryoumen Sukuna.

If you want to disguise yourself as the strongest black energy user from a thousand years ago and fight against Daolong, the strongest black energy wizard leader in modern times, the transformation skill can do it.

Even though the transformation was weakened a lot, changing the physical form was still a piece of cake for Lu Ke, just as Lu Xie could give himself an adult's body instantly.

He chose the Shiva Temple bracelet for two reasons. The most direct one was that he planned to make a staff that was unique to him. He felt that the bracelet, as a gold object, was suitable for use as a smelting consumable, and the material of the instrument that carried Milarepa's magical power should not be bad.

The study during this period has allowed him to completely master the art of air magic, completing a journey that would take an average wizard decades or even longer to complete.

His unparalleled talent allows him to learn quickly and master it in a short time. His photographic memory allows him to read through all the magic books in his father's antique shop in just a few days. His strong analytical ability allows him to translate and write spells by himself.

The subsequent time for absorbing knowledge will not last long. Even if his own strength is excluded, he is already a very outstanding mage. He is only one spellcasting prop and a little time accumulation away from being the strongest white mist mage.

This is the real bug in the shared space. Even if the world consciousness imposes restrictions on high-level beings, even if some worlds are incompatible with certain power systems, or even if it is a world without magic or the supernatural, the most basic strength, physical fitness, and talent are always there.

In fact, in theory, even if all the Lukes lie down and play rotten, they can still be stacked up to the sky in the end.

But the consequence of everyone giving up is that if any unexpected situation occurs before the stack reaches the sky, Lu Ke will be powerless to stop it, and he himself may also be in danger. And it seems a bit unrealistic to expect to transcend in the future and come back to save himself.

Lu Ke gathered his scattered thoughts and smiled at the three monks in front of him.

"Please ask a question."

The monk on the left took a step forward and tore off his robe, revealing exaggerated muscles that were reminiscent of the protein queen in biology textbooks, full of power.

"First is a test of strength."

The monk pointed to a huge rock with the name of the temple engraved on it, which was about three meters high and nearly two meters long and wide. His muscles were tense, his face was grim and veins were bulging, and he held on to the rock with all his strength.

"drink!"

The monk roared, and the boulder slowly moved, and finally left the ground and was picked up by him.

After a few seconds, the red-faced monk put the stone back to its original place and wiped the sweat from his face.

"You don't need to lift it. As long as you can move this stone, you pass the test."

He reminded, "As long as you think carefully, observe the surrounding environment and use your ingenuity, even a child's body can do it."

Lu Ke glanced around. There were a bunch of pulleys and fixed anchors in the temple, as well as beams that were long enough and extremely hard with a magical aura, and rocks that were close enough to serve as a base. Using the mechanical properties of the pulleys and the principle of leverage, there was no problem in shaking the stones.

"That doesn't sound very difficult."

The preparation work was too troublesome, so Lu Ke simply walked over with his calves, gently stretched out his little hand, and inserted his entire arm directly into the stone. Then he waved the stone upwards with a calm face as if he was lifting a piece of foam.

The heavy mass formed a sharp contrast with the child's body, which shocked everyone.

"Fuck!"

A foul language that Lu Ke missed very much came out of the monk's mouth. After noticing the surprised looks of others, he restrained his expression, coughed twice, and nodded expressionlessly.

"You pass."

Luke set his sights on the next monk.

"The second level tests your eyesight."

The second monk raised his hand and pointed to Shiva Temple. "Shiva Temple covers an area of ​​800 acres. There is one main hall, three auxiliary halls, 21 meditation rooms, and 36 other small buildings."

"I want you to count the total number of bricks and stones used in the Shiva Temple within one day."

Lu Ke glanced at the temple and said, "It will take less than a day. There are a total of 103,000 bricks and stones."

"…Are you sure this is the answer?"

The monk's face turned serious.

Lu Ke said calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can count them."

The second monk's serious face broke into a smile. "Yes, the answer to this question is to give an answer that the questioner cannot calibrate."

Lu Ke smiled without saying anything, and the calm expression on his face made the monk's expression gradually become stiff.

"You just made up the number, right?"

"What is the third test?"

Luke looked at the last of the older monks.

"The tests at Shiva Temple are different but ultimately the same. The first two levels are ostensibly testing your strength and eyesight, but in fact they are mainly testing your wisdom. The same is true for the third level."

The old monk had no expression on his face. "Answer me three questions and you can take the bracelet. No one has ever been able to answer more than two questions correctly over the years. You need to be careful."

"Ok."

Lu Ke was slightly alert. Riddles test logical thinking and are related to personal ability but not too much. He should indeed be careful.

"In the morning I walk on four legs, at noon I walk on two legs, in the evening I walk on three legs..."

“The answer is people.”

Before the monk could finish, Luke interrupted him and gave his answer, trying hard to keep a smile on his face.

It's hard not to complain about this famous, outdated philosophical riddle from more than 20 years ago.

What? It's only 1999?
That's fine.

"...a wise child."

The elder monk nodded in approval. "It seems that ordinary puzzles are not difficult for you. I have another puzzle that I heard from a mirror merchant."

"Please tell me."

The elder monk changed his tone, as if he were chanting a dark nursery rhyme.

"I am loyal to all things, yet sometimes I am despised by the world. Touching and expressing feelings makes people lose their minds. Hurting me is useless and may hurt myself. Young people are happy to see me, and the elderly sigh when they see me. Beautiful women look at me and linger."

"When you are sad, I cry; when you are tired, I sleep; when you are happy, I forget myself. We are all the same. Guess who I am?"

hiss~
Lu Ke felt a little sour in his teeth, and thinking of the merchant selling mirrors, the hairs on his body stood up as if he was slightly stimulated.

This riddle reminded him of some bad memories, a certain terrifying demon. Considering that the demon was indeed a high-dimensional creature, it was possible for him to accomplish the feat of crossing the world.

He checked his surroundings vigilantly, and only gave the answer carefully after confirming that there was no mysterious power around.

"The answer is reflection."

The older monk exclaimed, "What a clever boy! Let's go get the bracelet."

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment, "What about the third question?"

"You'll know when it arrives."

The three monks led Luke through a long corridor and ancient halls and came to a shrine.

On the shrine is a gilded sculpture with a beautiful appearance and six arms. On each arm is a golden bracelet engraved with mysterious runes.

They bowed to the sculpture and said to Luke, "You can only take one of the pairs. Choose the right bracelet. That's the final question."

Luke stared at the sculpture intently. This sculpture with a magical aura had the ability to shield auras, and the effect was quite good. Even he couldn't detect whether the bracelet was real or fake. "You can only take one pair, right?"

Lu Ke confirmed, "Are there any other restrictions?"

“You can’t take it off, you can’t touch it, you can only screen it from a distance.”

"Fully understand."

Lu Ke raised his fist, invisible force condensed in his hand. The sudden sense of crisis made the three monks' faces change.

"Wait, kid, what are you going to do?!"

boom! ! !
A terrifying force exploded, wood chips flew, smoke and dust rose, and the wind from the fist completely destroyed the entire sculpture along with the wall behind it. Seventy percent of the main hall was penetrated, and the sunlight instantly became abundant.

Lu Ke brushed away the dust, picked up a pair of intact golden bracelets on the ground, and smiled faintly. This trip was quite successful.

At this moment, he felt the protective spell he left on Xiaoyu was triggered.

"What happened to Xiaoyu?"

Based on the love that Black Qi and White Qi showed to Xiaoyu, Lu Ke believed that Xiaoyu would be fine, but it would be safer to go and take a look.

He looked at the half-demolished temple, flipped his palm, and a small box of treasure emitting golden light appeared in his hand. This was a part of the Golden Rooster King's treasure sent by Lu Xie. Their connection was not interrupted.

"This is the compensation and the money to buy the bracelet. I hope you can forgive my unreasonableness."

After saying this, Lu Ke's figure and the bracelet disappeared from the spot.

……

Anakda Falls, inside a hidden cave.

The originally quiet place became unusually noisy. In addition to Jackie Chan who was looking for the talisman and Xiaoyu who ran away, there was also a TV host Wesley and his cameraman who were fighting for the talisman.

"Tough luck, bad luck, bad luck, bad luck!"

Jackie Chan was running away madly while holding Xiaoyu in his arms while shouting his catchphrase. A giant green snake was chasing them.

"Xiaoyu, throw away the talisman!"

The giant snake is the guardian of the talisman and will attack whoever gets the talisman, but Xiaoyu refuses to let go.

"No, Uncle Long! My score is already behind, the snake charm must be mine!"

"Oh, Jade, you should play some normal games that other kids play instead of a contest to collect charms!"

Jackie Chan moved and rolled nimbly, but it was inconvenient for him to dodge with a child in his arms. Seeing that the giant snake was about to bite both of them, a white light appeared on Xiaoyu's body.

Swah——

The giant snake's bite seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier. It returned empty-handed unwillingly and stared at Xiaoyu.

"It's Luke's magic!"

Before Xiaoyu could be happy for a second, the giant snake attacked again, and this time the barrier was damaged. Thanks to Jackie Chan's roll, he was able to avoid it. During the intense action, the talisman accidentally fell and landed right in front of the host Wesley, who immediately put it away.

"Bad guy, give the talisman back to me!"

Before Xiaoyu could finish her words, the giant snake's kiss made Wesley's legs tremble and he dared not move. In this critical moment, Jackie Chan did not want to stand by and watch the snake die, so he threw a flashlight into the giant snake's eyes.

The giant snake felt the pain and went crazy all of a sudden. It changed its target and pounced on Jackie Chan and the other man. Its huge tail smashed the two of them like a wall.

At this moment, a glowing dust enveloped the giant snake, and its attack immediately weakened. Its eyes became blurry, and after struggling a few times, it fell to the ground.

It fell asleep.

Luke, holding the sleeping dust, appeared in front of the two men and looked at their frightened faces with a look of disapproval.

"Uncle Long, this place is very dangerous. You shouldn't have brought Xiaoyu here."

Jackie Chan: "..."

That's not what he wanted to bring!
The problem is that no one can keep an eye on Xiaoyu!

"I will pay attention next time. Thank you very much this time."

Jackie Chan forced a smile at Lu Ke, then jumped up.

"Ah, the talisman talisman!"

He looked around quickly, only to find that the host Wesley had already run away with the snake talisman.

"Damn that bad guy!"

Lu Ke cast another protective spell on Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, you are a little too impatient. Collecting talismans is very dangerous. You can ask Uncle Long to find them. In this way, the talismans collected will also be yours."

"But I want to collect it myself, and Uncle Long can't do it without me." Xiaoyu seemed to feel that what she was doing was not right, and said with a lack of confidence.

"…Be careful next time."

Lu Ke sighed and looked at Xiaoyu's lost look. He thought for a moment and walked to the giant snake. He took out another can of dust and blew it gently at the giant snake.

Under the effect of the magic dust, the giant snake shrank rapidly, soon changing from a length of several dozen meters to a small thing less than twenty centimeters, and was then captured by a small jar.

Luke handed the jar to Xiaoyu, "Want a pet?"

"what?"

Xiaoyu, who was feeling lost just now, was stunned. "You want me to raise it?"

"It would be cool to have a magical pet this big."

"May I?!"

Xiaoyu opened her mouth wide, her eyes shining as she looked at the dark green snake. Her sense of loss was thrown to the ends of the earth, and she looked at Jackie Chan with pleading eyes.

"Uncle Long, please let me keep it. Look how cute it is!"

No child can refuse a magical pet that is dozens of meters tall!
Adults should be the same.

"Absolutely not, it's too dangerous!"

Recalling the experience of being almost eaten, Jackie Chan firmly objected and spoke to Lu Ke.

"Luke, I always thought you were a very reliable child, but now this view has to be shaken. You can't encourage Xiaoyu to keep such a dangerous pet."

Lu Ke blinked and said, "I think it's also very dangerous for Xiaoyu to follow you, Uncle Long."

Jackie Chan: "..."

There is no way to refute it!
"But this snake is really dangerous!"

"It will be Xiaoyu's bodyguard, and sometimes it can also serve as your mount. I will tame this snake and cast a confinement spell on it so that it cannot hurt anyone."

Lu Ke added: "Xiaoyu can learn the magic of shrinking and restoring from Dad, then there will be no problem."

Xiaoyu: "Uncle Long~"

Jackie Chan: "I will definitely have a conflict with children in my life... Let's take it to the hospital to check its species and see if it has any poison."

"Uncle Long, you're the best!"

Xiaoyu cheered and jumped happily holding the jar.
