The author of the book "The Book of the Dead"

Chapter 116: Shining for thousands of years, during life and after death.

In the spring of the eleventh year of Kaiping (520).

The Yong'an Pagoda is shining with dazzling golden light, and all the light gathers at the top of the pagoda.

On the lotus platform inside the pagoda, a white-haired Taoist priest sat cross-legged.

The Taoist looked old and his energy and blood were weak.

This year, Liang Yue's physical lifespan was 121 years old.

The jade silkworm has already completed one hundred and twenty-one turns, satisfying the requirements for corpse transformation and also meeting the conditions for the opening of the third eye.

When he was eighty-five years old, his Taoism began to decline, and Liang Yue began to use internal energy and elixirs to make up for the deficit.

Fortunately, the power of his soul in the second life was much stronger than that in the previous life, which to a certain extent resisted the aging of Taoism.

Now the He Shi Bi has stored three thousand strands of true qi, and Liang Yue also has more than a hundred strands of true qi in his body, so he is not afraid of not having the skills to protect himself in his later years.

Time passes gradually.

The light between Liang Yue's eyebrows became brighter and brighter, with a tendency to materialize.

The sun sets and night falls.

In the Taiji Hall, Liang Yan, then nearly forty years old, was working at his desk to handle government affairs.

This Bodhisattva Emperor did not practice Buddhism, but instead worked diligently on government affairs.

The Liang family became the royal family, and Liang Yan made great efforts to maintain the family tradition.

"Did Emperor Gaozu really not see his other descendants?" Liang Yan thought of Emperor Gaozu who lived in seclusion in a pagoda.

Except for Liang himself and his third grandfather Liang Xin, no one else in the Liang family knew of the existence of Emperor Gaozu.

In fact, Liang Yan wanted Emperor Gaozu to meet them so that he would know that there are always people better than you.

Only then can these people feel at ease.

However, Emperor Gaozu did not mean that, so as his descendants, we cannot say anything.

Liang Yan rubbed his eyes and felt sleepy.

At this time, there was a noise coming from outside.

The eunuch stumbled in.

"Why are you so flustered?" Liang Yan glared at the eunuch.

"Your Majesty, it's a miracle! The gods have appeared!" the eunuch said breathlessly.

"What god?"

Liang Yan stood up suddenly and walked quickly to the window.

Under the night sky, the top of the pagoda reflected in the darkness was shining with golden light, illuminating for ten miles and illuminating for thousands of years.

At the Youlong faction’s headquarters, Li Hongwen, wearing thin clothes, gazed at the light in the distance.

"Master finally succeeded."

He had a vague feeling in his heart that his master would leave just like he did in the past.

A person lives forever alone.

In a quiet little house, Hua Mulan sat cross-legged by the water, comprehending her own inner strength.

At this moment, she also turned around suddenly.

Look at the golden light on the top of the tower on the other side.

When Lingbao's magical powers become perfect, he can transcend the Three Realms and is no longer within the Five Elements?

She came to the foot of the tower.

I saw a person standing under the tower.

The man had white hair and looked young.

There is a mysterious golden pattern between the eyebrows, which is so mysterious and wonderful that it is beyond words.

I am here and yet not here, floating alone in the world.

"Mulan, you're here." Liang Yue looked at Hua Mulan.

These are not stereotyped symbols in history, but living characters, people with flesh and blood.

"Lingbao, are you going to fly away?"

"I guess so. I am not a person of this era."

Liang Yue did not hide the fact that he had less than a year left to live.

It’s almost time to say goodbye to this era.

Say goodbye to this endless chaos.

The northern barbarians were in chaos, and the Han people became the mainstream.

Peace is coming to the world.

Mulan hesitated for a long time, but finally did not say anything.

Wrong time, wrong place, forming two non-intersecting parallel lines.

"Mulan, help me gather them over."

Liang Yue looked into the distance.

"it is good!"

Hua Mulan disappeared in a flash.

After several years of practice, Hua Mulan has already achieved innate cultivation.

Liang Yue turned around and went back into the tower.

In front of the bronze mirror, stood a white-haired immortal.

Liang Yue closed his eyes and sensed the mysterious Heavenly Eye. Inside his Dantian, his spirit was sitting cross-legged, and there was also a Heavenly Eye.

As the true Qi circulated, a faint golden pattern appeared between the eyebrows.

Wow!
The room was filled with golden light, golden patterns cracked, and pure golden light gathered into a pure golden Dharma Eye, the pupil of which was as black as the void sky.

In an instant, a scene seemed to appear in Liang Yue's mind.

The ancient and vast earth has not yet broken into stars.

In the ancient Ba and Shu lands, there were giant snakes that coiled for dozens of miles, and there were winged people with wings, white feathers on their bellies, and three eyes under their eyebrows living in the mountains.

The tallest tower is a thousand feet high, and its top seems to merge with the scorching sun.

On the top of the highest mountain, the King of the Feathered People wears a golden mask, holds a magic staff in his hand, and his Dharma Eyes illuminate the three realms.

One pupil illuminates the darkness of eternity, and dares to question the years about rise and fall.

"See through everything and illuminate the future."

The first function of the Heavenly Eye is to see through everything.

Liang Yue turned his wrist, and a white jade bead was in his palm.

Inside the white jade bead, there is a pure golden pill. Red lines are suspended around the pill, like a majestic and exotic dog.

The divine eye saw this object, and its supernatural power of seeing through everything began to take effect.

The information about the pure gold pill in the white jade appeared in the sea of consciousness.

The pure pill is called the Samsara Pill. After taking the Samsara Pill, your bloodline or body will be reborn and come back to the world.

It is the most precious elixir in ancient times.

The red lines on the outside of the pill are the bloodline of Huotou, a monster that looks like a dog. Wherever it goes, fire occurs. It is a mythical beast that symbolizes fire.

"Huo Dou, Samsara Pill."

Liang Yue suddenly realized that he had once again uncovered an ancient demon's conspiracy to resurrect.

In ancient times, demons and monsters fought against each other, perhaps hoping that one day spiritual energy would be revived so that they could be reborn with the help of a precious elixir.

Baodan was born and reincarnated.

"The Huodou bloodline may be used in the third life in the future." Liang Yue thought.

Transplant the blood of Huodou into dogs.

There is no need for this life, the life span of the primary monster can only double at most. I estimate that if I sleep for a hundred years, the monster will almost die.

Only Xuanwu can accompany me to the end.

Thinking of this, Liang Yue glanced at the turtle dozing off by the pool.

This guy is good, but unfortunately he is not as sensible as Xiaotian was back then.

Liang Yue held the Samsara Pill in his hand, and a new idea came to his mind. The Samsara Pill cannot be used by mortals. Mortals do not have strong spirits and are easily impacted by the outside world. But now is not the time to think about these things.

Take back the Samsara Pill.

Liang Yue sat cross-legged, sensing the ability of the third eye.

The ability of the third eye is quite impressive. There are currently two types of it: one is able to see through everything, and the other is able to illuminate the past and future.

The former is information that allows insight into things, just like the insight into the reincarnation pill just now.

"This method is extremely effective. The ancient gods and demons had many methods. Not all of them were buried in the same pit. Some may have used special materials to isolate their divine thoughts like the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, or they may have lived in a small cave."

With this thing, I will dig him up until not a blade of grass remains in his body in the next life.

All the relics of immortals and gods will be stolen by this great thief of the Dharma Ending Age.

After 1,800 years, he would at least be able to become a lord in the fairy world and change his fate.

The second kind of illuminating the ages includes four abilities: inner vision, perspective, remote vision, and micro-vision.

It plays an important role in refining equipment and alchemy.

The ordinary iron in this life is still too bad, and cannot generate divine power out of thin air. At most, it can reach the standard of a magic weapon, but has no special magical powers.

Perhaps when the era of human immortals arrives, things will look different.

By then, elixirs and weapons will all shine.

Liang Yue retracted his magical powers, and the golden light between his eyebrows gradually faded, and finally returned to normal.

There is still room for development of the Sky Eye. This object should be the same as the Erlang Shen in mythology. Legend has it that Erlang Shen's Sky Eye can shine from the heaven to the underworld.

The next night.

The spring breeze is gentle and warm, under the Yong'an Pagoda.

Willow trees are swaying, and the table is filled with fine wine and delicious food.

Everyone gathered again.

"Congratulations, grandfather, for achieving great success!" Liang Xin, then 91 years old, bowed and congratulated.

"Congratulations, Master!"

Li Hongwen smiled and said that he was ninety-seven years old this year and was a reference for Liang Yue's cultivation.

If this guy hadn't lived so long, Liang Yue wouldn't have dared to practice the Heavenly Eye Technique.

Emperor Liang Yan, Bao Zhao and Hua Mulan took their seats one after another.

At the banquet, everyone was speechless.

Some people miss their youth and talk about what happened in the Yuanjia year.

"Back then at Taihu Academy..."

When Liang Yue talked about the Eastern Jin Dynasty, everyone listened attentively with a look of curiosity on their faces.

He was shocked to discover that all his old friends from the Eastern Jin Dynasty had passed away; these old people were just the younger generation from the Yuanjia era.

The past of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has long been blown away by the rain and wind.

There is no longer any banquet in the green mountains or elegant gathering in Lanting in the world.

"That's all."

Liang Yue waved his hands. The loneliness of eternal life really made everything boring.

Five tokens appeared on the table.

This seems to be the positive side of the Tai Chi pattern, with undulating serrations, reliefs, and lines in the middle.

Liang Yue distributed it to everyone.

There is one each for Li Hongwen, Bao Zhao, Liang Yan, Liang Xin, and Hua Mulan.

Liang Yue took out the other half and aligned it with it, making it fit perfectly.

"Tell your followers from now on to see me when they receive an order."

In the first life, his power was too shallow and his foundation was too weak, so he didn’t dare to leave a token, and even leaving a token was useless.

There is basically no threat to me in this life.

So it’s okay to stay for a while.

Of course, Liang Yue did not expect that once the token was issued, future generations would bow down to him and worship him.

This is an unrealistic delusion.

Li Hongwen's inner vision came true. He asked in a trembling voice, "Master, are you leaving?"

"Well, all good things must come to an end."

I don’t know how many times I have said this, and I may repeat it more times in the future.

Longevity means constant reunion and separation, and the constant refinement and perfection of the mind.

Disasters from heaven, earth, and man will either sink completely and vanish into ashes in history, or...until everything comes to perfection.

Everyone was silent and the atmosphere was depressing and bleak.

Willow leaves fall with the wind, just like the scene of parting.

They knew that once Liang Yue left, they would probably never see each other again in this life.

"I wish Master eternal happiness and a long life!"

Li Hongwen raised his glass to congratulate Liang Yue for retreating from the world to practice Buddhism again.

"Come!"

Liang Yue clinked glasses with everyone, which was another habit he brought up.

The wine and water spilled and flowed in all directions.

At night, Liang Yue was drunk and slept in his clothes.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound outside the window.

Liang Yue's ears twitched, but he ignored it.

The figure stayed for a long time, left something, and then left.

Until the sun rises and the cold night fog dissipates.

The figure then stood up and left
Get ready and go.

Outside Jiankang City.

Liang Yue was carrying Xuanwu in his arms, riding a horse, and wearing simple clothes.

Everyone is there except Mulan.

"Hongwen, Zhao'er, Yan'er, Xin'er, goodbye!"

"Master, take care!"

"Take care of yourself!"

"Hongwen, you don't need to look at Liuzhuang anymore. Let's level the tombs in Wutong Garden to prevent interference from thieves. Let's go!"

Liang Yue rode his horse northward and his figure disappeared under the sunlight.

He wants to find his own way to immortality.

Only with stronger power and a stronger realm of corpse reincarnation can one find deeper relics of gods and demons, until the day when one transcends the world.

Emperor Liang Yan watched Emperor Gaozu leave.

He has been Emperor Gaozu's shadow for ten years, and will have to bear this secret in the future. It is difficult to live forever, and it is best not to leave any miraculous legends about Emperor Gaozu in history books.

Li Hongwen felt lost.

I bid farewell to my old friends one by one.

Xie Xuan, Xie Lingyun, Liang Jingming, Zhu Yingtai, Xu Jingming, the masters of the first life...

He witnessed history one by one.

Li Hongwen was the last one to come into Liuzhuang. He was a young man at that time.

He was the last one to leave Liuzhuang, and now he is the oldest person.

The ancients are not seen before, and the comers are not seen later.

"Goodbye, Master!" Li Hongwen solemnly thanked the man who saved his clan.

History is a mysterious light that never looks back, and we will never meet again in the years to come.
