From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

The presidents of the other branches were aware of the Robin's ambitions, but they actually had more faith in the scientific and technological power they controlled.

It is a well-known fact that even spiritual practitioners are mortal beings, and that a bullet piercing the head will kill them.

In ancient times, even sorcerers could not dominate society and were eventually defeated by an army of ordinary people, let alone those who had already explored science and researched modern technology.

They verbally profess faith in God—one of the conditions for joining the Gelugpa is to be a believer in God, regardless of which God they believe in, but atheists cannot join.

However, they do not believe in the existence of God.

The power to control floods?

That's the law of nature!

In other words, the head of the headquarters truly has faith and is interested in the ancient alchemy of Atlantis and the Trident of Poseidon, so they cooperated. Otherwise, how could they have selected so few people?

Even if the selection tests were a hundred times more brutal, they could still select over a thousand outstanding warriors, scholars, and explorers, instead of just a handful of big cats like we have today.

But the robin truly believed in the existence of ancient alchemical techniques and the Trident of Poseidon, and even wanted to control them and then deceive the headquarters chairman afterwards.

Why not take on the role of president of the G Foundation himself?

Before the world order is completely unified, it's better for President G to handle the more laborious matters. As a wise and intelligent man, Robin's idea is simple: he believes that all he needs to do is to reap the final fruits of victory, nothing more.

"The reason? Of course I know, but do you really believe that Atlantis can directly give you the power to lead the G Society? Although I have some awe for the wisdom of the ancient sages of this place, they have become history and are only legends now."

The implied meaning.

Since it has become history, it has either been eliminated by the times or is no longer suitable for the environment. Even if the legendary trident of Poseidon is found, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced once it leaves this place with its powerful energy, and it may even become a harpoon.

of course.

Jiang Liu wasn't trying to persuade the robin; they weren't familiar with each other, and in his eyes, the robin's past actions were entirely equivalent to those of a demon.

This was merely a test of the other party's resolve to seek ancient alchemy and Atlantis, and then—

Give them a push.

Wugensheng aspired to be a sage, dividing people into four classes and seeking to guide them, wanting to find a path for them and give them a push at crucial moments.

And now.

Jiang Liu is also doing this.

But the difference is that he wasn't helping the robin find a way; he just wanted to push him into a "pit."

"Of course!"

Faced with the doubts, the robin looked confident and said to Siobhan, "Enough with the idle talk, Siobhan, bring out the stone tablet. I don't want to say it a third time."

I am also familiar with the history of your family. You are direct descendants of the Atlanteans. Human transmutation involves the genetic level, and generations of people have been able to live to around two hundred years old, but the birth rate is extremely low, and only men can reliably inherit the abilities of your race.

And you are the last member of the McDougall family, and as a woman, your children will not be able to inherit your family's abilities.

Therefore, you need to seek the alchemical techniques of Atlantis—

Our goals are not contradictory, and if you wish, you are welcome to join the G-Economy; the future world is one!

Siwon remained noncommittal, and pale golden lines appeared all over his body, revealing his navel to the astonished gazes of the crowd.

call out!

A smooth, jade-like, golden-yellow stone slab appeared out of thin air, engraved with ancient runes, resembling oracle bone script or cuneiform script, which were unrecognizable and incomprehensible.

It is actually a script of Atlantis that has not yet been deciphered.

But Jiang Liu, observing it, felt a strange connection, an inexplicable connection, and was able to understand its contents. Though the text was brief, it contained a wealth of information, recording a summary of Atlantis's past history—

All things originate from the One, and are born from the One through differentiation!

That is, the macrocosm of self, heaven and earth, and nature, and the microcosm of individual, mind, and soul, are in a unified, harmonious, and reflective relationship. By using the transformation of alchemy to liberate the spirit from matter, both the material and the mind are recreated, and the primordial unity of the universe can be restored!

That is, the Way!

Bearing the way of the sages, the Kingdom of Zhou Tian was built on the western coast, encircling the sea, reaching to the heavens and the earth, capable of summoning wind and rain, and turning stones into gold!

We will establish an unparalleled civilization! We dare to rival the sun, moon, and stars in brilliance!

Of course—

Gonggong, desiring the imperial throne, but failing to obtain it, angrily struck the pillar of the heavens, causing Emperor Zhuanxu to sever the connection between heaven and earth…

Jiang Liu shook his head, somewhat doubting his own existence—Gonggong? Zhuanxu? How did these legendary figures from ancient China end up in Africa?

Or perhaps, in an even earlier period, the people of China had already explored the entire continent. Because the natural order of the universe was well-established, cultivation flourished, so distance was not a problem. Later, Gonggong angrily struck Buzhou, causing the pillar of heaven to break and disrupting the planetary circulation of primordial energy, making travel inconvenient and causing people all over the world to lose contact.

Thinking of the various mythical beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Jiang Liu began to believe that the ancient people of China had already spread all over the world.

Such as:

The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Southern Mountains Classic, records: On Mount Zhaoyao, there is a beast that looks like a monkey but has white ears. It walks on its back and runs like a human. Its name is Xingxing. Eating it makes one run fast.

Aside from the point about "being able to walk after eating," the preceding description looks quite similar to real gorillas. However, gorillas are not native to mainland China; they are mostly found in the tropical rainforests of Africa.

Another example:

The Classic of Mountains and Seas - Eastern Mountains Classic records: The armadillo beast is shaped like a rabbit but has a bird's beak, owl's eyes and a snake's tail. When it sees people, it sleeps and cries out to itself.

According to Jiang Liu's memories from his previous life, armadillos are creatures that exist in reality and inhabit the Americas; they do not exist in China.

The landforms and things recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas may very well refer not only to the land of China, but to the entire Earth!

# Chapter 748 Siwon's Abilities (Part 1)

Recalling the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Jiang Liu realized that his previous speculations about the myths such as Gonggong's anger at the mountains and Nuwa patching up the sky might actually be true in the world of Under One Man!

However, there's a possibility that Tianzhu (Heavenly Pillar) isn't located within China, but rather in Africa!

The earliest source of the concept of "severing the connection between heaven and earth" comes from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, Great Wilderness West Classic," which states:

In the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain called Sun and Moon Mountain, the celestial pivot. Wu Ji is the Heavenly Gate, through which the sun and moon enter. There is a god, with a human face but no arms, whose two feet are attached to the mountain above his head, named Xu. Zhuanxu begat Laotong, Laotong begat Chong and Li. The Emperor ordered Chong to ascend to heaven, and ordered Li to descend to earth. Descending to earth, he gave birth to Ye, who resides in the westernmost region, to guide the movement of the sun, moon, and stars.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, China has been considered the land of the East.

But what about before the Qin and Han dynasties, or even earlier?

Perhaps in those ancient times, the practice of refining Qi and alchemy was very popular.

It was only because Gonggongshi angrily struck Buzhoutian that the pillar of heaven broke, causing a change in the celestial sphere.

Even if Nuwa mended the sky, it would be difficult to reverse the situation in a short time.

Later, Emperor Zhuanxu severed the connection between heaven and earth, making it impossible for most people in tribes around the world to communicate using the energy field, and "transportation" was no longer as convenient as before.

Only those who have cultivated themselves to the highest level, or those who have mastered some unique magical arts, can continue to travel the world.

But to no avail.

With communication and transportation disrupted, people naturally grew increasingly estranged over time.

In that era before the separation of heaven and earth, the Eurasian continent was connected and would not have been divided into two parts, Asia and Europe, by the ancients. It is very likely that Africa would be considered the "West," and the Atlantic Ocean and the Americas beyond Africa would probably also be included in the concept of the "West."

China and the surrounding islands are roughly in the East!

The Classic of Mountains and Seas is mainly divided into the Classic of Mountains and the Classic of Seas.

The Classic of Mountains mainly consists of the Classic of the Five Mountains, which records the mountains, rivers, landforms, flora, fauna, and culture of various parts of China; while the Classic of Seas is divided into the Classic of the Seas Beyond the Seas, the Classic of the Seas Within the Seas, and the Classic of the Great Wilderness.

The "Great Wilderness Classic" is divided into four parts: east, south, west, and north. It is generally believed that this part mainly describes the myths of the Yellow Emperor and Emperor Jun.

However, considering that the path of cultivation truly exists within the worldview of "Under One Person," and that the message conveyed to Jiang Liu by the jade tablet that Siwon took out is highly similar to the content of Eastern culture, and even includes mythological figures from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," this is a significant development.

This inevitably led Jiang Liu to suspect that the "Great Wilderness Classic" was not essentially a myth, but rather an objective history.

Furthermore, during this period of history, the location was determined based on the planetary-level weekly weather patterns. The location of China was taken as the easternmost point, while Africa and the Americas further west were the westernmost point. Europe and the regions further north were the northernmost point, and the southernmost point included the southern islands, Australia, Antarctica, and other places.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why information such as "Gonggong", "Zhuanxu", and "Severing the connection between heaven and earth" appears on a jade tablet originating from ancient Egypt and recording the history of Atlantis.

"This is the key to unlocking the gates of Atlantis!"

How beautiful!

The robin gazed at the golden emerald slab, its eyes shining, wanting to reach out, but forcefully suppressing its desire.

Without him.

Don't let small gains lead to big losses.

This is just a key.

What he wants is the ancient alchemical technology of Atlantis and the Trident of Poseidon!

Furthermore.

He was neither a Qi cultivator nor an alchemist, and he did not control the Qi ability. He could only use the stone slab as a slightly harder shield.

"This is just one of the keys."

Siwon looked at Jiang Liu and said, "Please take out that Death Bracelet made with the ancient alchemical techniques of Atlantis. The surface texture may have been erased by you, but the alchemical array patterns constructed by the internal energy flow path still exist."

Jiang Liu glanced at Evelyn, and seeing her hesitate for a moment before finally nodding, he brushed the storage ring on his left index finger and took out the Death God Bracelet with a wolf's head and a scorpion's body.

Siwon closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled, repeating this nine times. A white aura surged around him, and then his clothes tore apart, revealing his near-perfect, devilish figure.

Slender and alluring.

It can make any man's blood boil!

Although they were without clothes, they did not give the impression of being naked.

Her originally fair skin was now covered with a bluish-black sheen, resembling leather, making it look like a peculiar type of skin that covered some of her private parts.

The area from the arms to the elbows and the area from the legs to the knees were covered with a layer of pale white flames.

What's even more striking is that his white hair keeps growing longer, reaching his waist, dancing without wind, and it has a silvery sheen that shines brightly in the sunlight, as if it were sacred.

However, in this state, Siwon's originally pretty face was as if it had been carved by a knife, and its square shape revealed a hint of ferocity similar to a skull. When ordinary people moved their gaze from his body to his face, their hearts stopped for a moment. They could not believe that such a perfect figure was actually paired with such a solemn and majestic face, like those of the Vajra evil gods in temples, revealing a trace of majesty.

"Absolutely amazing!"

Jiang Liu was slightly surprised.
