The road is vague

Chapter 197: Dream Interpretation of the Great Zhou Dynasty

It will take a few more days to return to Hua'an County, Muzhou.

After Li Mo returned to his room, he carefully sorted out the gains from this trip.

He collected more than 300 ordinary spiritual bamboos with ages ranging from 300 to 400 years to more than 1,000 years, and 18 1,800-year-old Arhat bamboos into several storage bags.

These storage bags were so full that they looked a little funny, as if all ten fingers of a nouveau riche were covered with gold rings.

Besides.

He also harvested the blood of a thousand-year-old bamboo rat spirit, which is a precious material for refining mid-level talismans.

Immediately afterwards, he also found the demon pill, corpse and severed tail of the Huang Tong demon rat in the underground palace.

The most precious demon pill, which can be used to make pills in the future.

The fur and tail can be used to refine magical tools. Li Mo remembered that the tails of the two bamboo rat spirits here had the effect of influencing spiritual consciousness.

Blood can be used as ink to refine low-level talismans.

The last one was a set of flying sword magic weapons, which were actually wood-attributed flying swords made from thousand-year-old spiritual bamboo, totaling eighteen swords.

Li Mo tried it briefly.

This set of flying swords is indeed extraordinary, but if you want to wield them as easily as your arms, you need to use the main skills of the Wanjian Sect in combination.

The main practice of Wanjianmen requires that the swords forged must be used by the person himself, which is equivalent to falling into a vicious circle.

Just as he was about to put away these flying swords, he was surprised to find that there were no runes etched on the swords!
In other words.

These flying swords are only semi-finished products.

Li Mo can refine another eighteen magical instruments to serve as the foundation of the six disasters and six tribulations matrix puppet formation!

"It seems that this demon rat, although talented, is not good at runes."

Finally, there is the storage bracelet on Huang Tong’s wrist.

Li Mo originally had great expectations, but when he opened the storage bracelet, he was shocked to find that there were only a few hundred low-grade spirit stones and a high-grade spirit stone whose spiritual power had been exhausted.

This high-grade spirit stone with exhausted spiritual power was taken out by Li Mo from the groove on the teleportation array. It is no longer of much value.

Huang Tong's storage bracelet did not contain the various precious refining materials and magical instruments that Li Mo had imagined.

Just lots of books.

There are many main cultivation methods of the sects, as well as a large number of basic spells and travel story books.

These spell books often need to be paired with corresponding main skills before they can be practiced. For Li Mo now, they are only of some reference value.

What surprised Li Mo was that there were many medical books in Huang Tong's storage bracelet.

Among them were many medical books that he was also familiar with, having studied them during his apprenticeship at Jimintang, but there were also some rare and unique copies, ancient books that would have amazed his master Zhang Dongliang during his lifetime.

"Could this guy possibly be studying medicine?"

After being stunned for a moment, he searched among many books for a long time and finally picked out a map and two books.

Li Mo first studied the map carefully.

The span of this map is extremely large, and he has never seen a super map of such a scale.

On the map, there are not only the Daqian Kingdom, the Nanman Land, the Miaojiang Land, and part of the Tianyuan Land, but also the Four Gobi Kingdoms, the Lu Kingdom, the Seven Kingdoms Land, the Four Kingdoms of Lingdong, the Death Storm Area, and even the wasteland of Dongling and the Lost Land are marked out.

Dongling, where the Piaomiao demon clan lives.

On this animal skin map, it is clearly divided into two parts: the wasteland and the lost land.

Among them, the wasteland is located east of the Death Storm outside the Central Plains, and is marked with three areas: Golden Lion, Peacock, and Nine Foxes.

The Lost Land, on the other hand, seems to be isolated overseas and belongs to the gray edge area of ​​the map.

It was marked with the Blood Dragon Royal Family, the writings of several primitive sects, and a red teleportation array sign.

Li Mo was stunned for a moment.

After searching on the map for a while, he soon found the mark of another red teleportation array, which was in the southern barbarian land near the border of Daqian Kingdom, that is, the territory of Cangyuan.

"Could it be that the other end of this teleportation array is actually in this so-called Lost Land?"

Li Mo couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

This map is priceless and has greatly deepened his understanding of the general situation in the mountain and sea world.

As for the two selected books, they are respectively named "Huang Tong Neijing" and "Da Zhou Jie Meng".

He first opened the Huang Tong Neijing.

This book is actually named after itself. Could it be a self-created martial art?
After a careful study, Li Mo was surprised to find that this so-called "Huang Tong Neijing" was actually a set of exercises created by Huang Tong based on "Emperor Xin Neijing".

Therefore, it was named "Huang Tong Nei Jing".

The reason why this demon rat went to such great lengths was because the "Emperor Xin's Internal Classic" stipulated that practitioners must first learn medicine, and then make adaptive creations based on the characteristics of their own internal organs, dantian meridians, and the heavenly stems and earthly branches, as well as their birth dates.

"Is there such a demanding technique in the world?"

From this point of view.

The decline of the sect that created the "Emperor Xin's Internal Classic" must be related to the incredible difficulty of practicing it.

Although this type of technique will be more powerful than ordinary techniques after being cultivated, it is not suitable as the main technique passed down by the sect. As time goes by, it will often be discontinued at a certain period of time and then destroyed by other sects. It will then be put aside and become a special technique that only the talented disciples within the sect can comprehend and learn.

The more Li Mo watched, the more his heart beat!

Not to mention that he himself possesses excellent medical skills.

The characteristics of this technique also gave him a vague feeling that it was in line with the Way of Piaomiao.

After practicing this technique, when absorbing and circulating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it will form a special tempering of the internal organs.

The so-called five internal organs refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, and the so-called six internal organs refer to the stomach, gallbladder, large intestine, small intestine, triple burner, and bladder.

After all the internal organs are tempered, the cultivator's basic magic power will be greatly improved, and he can obtain excellent longevity and health-preserving effects.

Besides.

The most significant feature of this practice is that it does not have any specific magical powers.

This practice can be adaptively improved according to the characteristics of the practitioner.

This coincides with Piaomiao Dao's pursuit of changing the current situation through personal unremitting efforts.

It seems that as long as a person refuses to accept his fate and has an unswerving goal and persistent efforts, all objective obstacles will retreat, just like a dream coming true.

"If I think about it carefully, the main cultivation technique, 'Eye of the True Spirit,' was created based on the Nine Foxes' innate talent. The secondary cultivation technique, 'Seven Apertures Returning to the Origin Technique,' seems to have an ethereal quality. This 'Emperor Xin's Inner Canon' also has this artistic conception."

Li Mo felt as if there was some kind of coincidence, or destiny.

of course.

Various Taoist schools of thought have different paths but the same destination, and they are both divided and integrated.

This can perhaps only be said to be two sides of the same coin. Different people have different opinions. Li Mo only saw the compatibility with the Piaomiao Taoist tradition because he had comprehended it.

"Using this as a basis, he created the Li Mo Neijing as his second supplementary cultivation method?"

Li Mo was lost in thought. There was no rush for this matter, and he would discuss it after he returned.

Next, he looked at "The Interpretation of Dreams in the Great Zhou Dynasty" and after flipping through it for a while, his expression gradually became solemn.

This book "The Interpretation of Dreams in the Great Zhou Dynasty" is Huang Tong's research notes on the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Judging from its labeled arguments, this human dynasty, which existed for only five or six hundred years, was the first country of the human race. It united with the surrounding world and organized the last battle of the Middle Ages in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

It was also because of this battle.

In a short period of time, a large number of holy relics and tombs appeared in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and countless holy mountains and places were reduced to ashes.

This battle can be seen as a continuation of the ancient war.

In addition to the Great Zhou Dynasty of the human race in the Mountain and Sea Realm, this battle also includes the four surrounding worlds, including the demons in the Shura Realm, the ghosts in the Yinsi Realm, the witches in the Seven Star Realm, and the spirits in the Yuanling Realm.

As for the demons in Piaomiao Realm, they should have arrived in Shanhai Realm earlier and had a great war with the human race. They seemed to be the instigators of the ancient war. The specific situation is not known for the time being.

Huang Tong speculated.

The reason why the human race in the Mountain and Sea Realm is able to gather the power of so many worlds is because the enemies that the Mountain and Sea Realm is fighting against are likely to affect the surrounding worlds, which will be a catastrophe.

Judging from the results.

The war was probably a failure, but it was also a partial victory.

From now on.

The Spirit Transformation Stage is the limit of cultivation within the Mountain and Sea Realm.

At the same time, the Mountain and Sea Realm has become a disaster-stricken place that the creatures in the surrounding worlds avoid, and they dare not have any contact with the Mountain and Sea Realm anymore.

However, since there are no large-scale witch tribes or spirit tribes in the Mountain and Sea Realm today, Huang Tong speculated that after the end of the Medieval War, the Seven Star Realm and the Yuanling Realm withdrew their reinforcements through secret passages.

Therefore, there is likely some kind of secret connection between the Mountain and Sea Realm and these two worlds.

Therefore, if the creatures in the Mountain and Sea Realm want to reach the Spirit Transformation Stage or above, they must find a way to leave here and go to these two realms to practice, so as to circumvent the restrictions of the order of heaven and earth in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

The introduction to the second half of "The Great Zhou Dream Interpretation" also begins from here.

For unknown reasons, the human race of the Great Zhou Dynasty declared war on the demons, monsters, ghosts, witches, and spirits that remained in the mountain and sea realms at the same time!
The human race of the Great Zhou Dynasty was like prisoners trapped in a desperate situation and was extremely crazy. After absorbing the Taoist expertise of different worlds through massive wars, they developed the Taoist tradition of dual cultivation of sex and life, as well as various incredible methods.

In just five or six hundred years, the human race in the Mountain and Sea Realm has shown signs of rising again. After a last-ditch struggle, the current situation has been formed.

That's why.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had extremely detailed intelligence about these tribes. Li Mo watched with rapid breathing.

The Great Zhou Dynasty created the so-called method of refining elixirs by hunting down the Piaomiao demon tribe. Based on the Yangshou Pill, Yinde Pill, and Zaohua Pill, they refined the so-called Piaomiao Pill, which allowed mortals to practice and allowed cultivators to cultivate both their body and soul.

However, every time you advance to a higher level, you need to swallow a higher-level Piaomiao Pill until you reach the Nascent Soul stage.

"Is this the secret of the Great Zhou Dynasty's dual cultivation of body and soul?"

Li Mo showed shock, astonishment and confusion that were difficult to conceal.

He had obtained the recipe for the Creation Pill from a misty dream, but according to the "Great Zhou Dream Interpretation", this was actually only one of the three elixirs needed to make an elixir.

He knew about Yang Shou Dan, which was the elixir of the Lu State Shou Dan School.

But he had never heard of Yin De Dan.

But there is no doubt that these three kinds of elixirs are all based on the demon pills of the Piaomiao clan and are refined as materials. Could it be because the Piaomiao demon clan itself is a life cultivator?
"No wonder when refining the elixir, it is divided into different levels. This is a characteristic that other elixirs do not have. The root cause is actually here."

Li Mo couldn't wait to continue looking down.

The Great Zhou Dynasty hunted down the Shura demons and used the Shura demon blood to forge demon statues. They absorbed the spiritual veins of the earth and the vitality of the mountains and rivers, and became extremely powerful.

"Could this be the golem forged by the Hidden Dragon Organization?"

It seems that the content of this book "Da Zhou Dream Interpretation" is by no means groundless or nonsense.

Li Mo kept turning the pages of the book. He was fascinated by the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty that Huang Tong was studying.

The Great Zhou Dynasty hunted down the underworld ghosts entrenched in the land of Nanze and refined the Nine Nether Soul Stones as energy to activate the forbidden teleportation array of the eighteen layers of the underworld hell, achieving a cross-border transmission comparable to the ancient cultivators' use of golden tadpole script to write the power of heaven and earth.

"The description here seems to be somewhat similar to the transmission technology of the black market organization."

The Great Zhou Dynasty hunted the spirits in the Yuanling Realm, created the Yuanling Secret Talisman and the Tongtian Talisman, and performed the Five Elements Yuanling Technique based on the dual cultivation of sex and life.

"Secret talisman of the Yuanling spirit."

Li Mo suddenly thought of someone, that was Yang Zhiman.

The so-called Yuanling Secret Talisman is a talisman drawn on the spot with the essence, energy and spirit concentrated on the basis of magic tools and treasures. This is the case with Yang Zhiman's talisman technique, or it can be said that the talisman makers of his master Qian Jingtang's lineage are like this!

The Great Zhou Dynasty hunted down the Wu Clan of the Seven Star Realm and built the Seven Star Altar. They used the Wu Clan as sacrifices, conducting blood sacrifices to extend lifespans and connect the order between heaven and earth. The Mountain and Sea Realm entered the Age of the End of the Dharma...

Li Mo had unknowingly turned the last page.

He was still unsatisfied, as if he had been enlightened. Many mysteries that had been puzzled before were now solved.

Many origins of the current era can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty.

Whether it is the major countries or the secret organizations, there is the shadow of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although this dynasty has long been destroyed, its technological heritage has been continued through various means.

In essence, these inheritances were actually the result of ancient cultivators integrating the Taoist traditions of alien races from the surrounding worlds.

"Perhaps the reason the Great Zhou Dynasty turned so ruthless was because the ancient cultivators had long anticipated that the Mountain and Sea Realm would become what it is today. After entering the Dharma Ending Age, creatures would no longer be able to continue practicing, and it would also become a place of disaster that the surrounding worlds would not be able to avoid."

Li Mo felt a little depressed and solemn.

The more he knew, the more troubles he had. Fortunately, he was not warned by the divine secret this time.

"The Mountain and Sea Realm has been completely isolated. The ancient cultivators were probably trying to leave a glimmer of hope for future generations. Morality no longer matters when it comes to life and death."

At the same time, the book also contains many introductions about the dual cultivation of sex and life in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Li Mo couldn't help but pick up "The Great Zhou Dream Interpretation" and read it again, and was fascinated by it.

The Mountain and Sea Realm is an isolated world.

The rulers of other worlds are not all human, and the rules of heaven and earth in each world are also very different.

Just like the monsters and demons in the Mountain and Sea Realm, in other worlds there are also some humans who traveled across the boundaries in ancient times and established habitats in certain areas.

Li Mo looked at these fantastic contents, as if the door to a new world had been opened. He was shocked and intoxicated.

"The Great Zhou Dynasty is truly an era that brings back memories."

At the same time, Li Mo noticed that the ending part of "The Interpretation of Dreams in the Great Zhou Dynasty" marked that the golden tadpole characters, wild beasts, and fairy roots of the mountain and sea world gradually disappeared during the Middle Ages.

It was during the Middle Ages that monsters were born in the mountain and sea realms, influenced by changes in the natural environment.

The monsters in the mountain and sea world may have some connection with the Piaomiao monster clan.

Based on this, Huang Tong made a bold guess that the Piaomiao Realm has already merged with the Shanhai Realm, which is the reason for the disappearance of many species. One day in the future, this world will become the Shanhai Piaomiao Realm, and by then the monsters will adapt to the times and become the new rulers of this world.

"This……"

Li Mo imagined that one day in the future, the status of the human race would plummet and become the same as the current situation of monsters. His expression suddenly changed slightly.

"It's best if this never happens."

After taking a deep breath, he put "The Great Zhou Dream Interpretation" into his storage ring as if it were a treasure.
