From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"Don't sigh, Brother Partridge Whistle. We cultivators understand our own hearts, are not troubled by the past, do not scheme for the future, but do good deeds and do not worry about the future," the first generation Jiang Liu comforted him.

Partridge Whistle was finally relieved.

Afterwards, the first generation Jiang Liu invited everyone to head together to the center of Evil Luo Sea City.

At the very center of this Evil Luo Sea City is not a royal palace, but an altar. The ground is shaped like a lotus flower with six petals. In the middle is a stone platform, only four or five meters in diameter and two zhang high above the ground. On its pillars is a giant snake statue with eyes on its forehead, and at the very top is a huge stone lotus platform.

Zhang Zhiwei was the first to jump up, marveling, "This lotus pod has so many lotus seeds!"

The first generation Jiang Liu was the second to leap onto the lotus platform. He discovered that the platform had a slight upward curve and was filled with rings of holes the size of chicken eggs. Only the center, about half a meter in diameter, was flat.

"Where are the lotus seeds? Aren't there only holes?" Lu Jin also jumped onto the lotus platform, glanced around, and suspected that the "lotus seeds" here had been taken away by the Samsara Sect.

However, the first generation Jiang Liu took out a large pile of scriptures inscribed with what looked like ghostly talismans from the fourth floor of the Demon Tower from his storage ring.

Lu Jin picked up a piece, inserted it into one of the holes, and found it fit perfectly.

no doubt.

These stones are most likely keys.

But what about the correct order?

If a stone tablet contains only one character, it must be arranged in the correct order to form a coherent text before it can be truly activated.

Let alone the correct order, the bizarre and grotesque scribbles on the stone are enough to make one's scalp tingle and are completely incomprehensible.

But in general, these characters are not all different. On the contrary, after careful classification, people found that there are only six different character shapes.

?、?、??、?、???、?????！

"So this is a passage of scripture that is constantly repeated?"

Zhang Zhiwei was surprised.

"Six words, and they keep repeating... Isn't this the Six-Syllable Mantra?" Lu Jin turned his gaze to the first generation Jiang Liu.

The latter understood immediately, checked the memories stored in his brain, picked up six of the scripture stones, silently recited the six-syllable mantra, infused it with spiritual power, determined the order based on the reactions, and arranged the six characters one by one according to "Om Mani Padme Hum".

Seeing this, the others also took action, arranging the large pile of scriptures in the holes on the lotus platform according to the order given by the first generation of Jiang Liu.

Once all the sutra stones were arranged, not one more and not one less.

Therefore, the first generation of Jiang Liu infused it with a wisp of spiritual power.

In an instant.

All the stones inside the holes rotated, so that the characters faced upwards and emitted a faint golden glow.

thereafter.

The flat surface without holes at the center of the lotus platform reveals a cluster of six lotus petals, each petal displaying a character identical to the one on the sutra stone.

Click!

The lotus platform vibrated, the six-petaled lotus pattern in the center disappeared, and a crystal box rose up, opening automatically to reveal a fiery red agate about the size of a human head.

Take a closer look.

It wasn't agate, but a human brain, with numerous grooves and folds, yet it was entirely red. Under the light, it looked like it was burning, giving the impression of a fiery red agate.

"This must be the head of the first Demon Mother!"

Zhang Zhiwei was certain, yet also puzzled, "So, the scripture stone on the fourth floor of the Nine-Story Demon Tower is the key, but the Reincarnation Sect didn't take the scripture stone at first. Instead, they took the treasures from the fifth, sixth, and seventh floors, as well as the demonic eyes and brain of the first Ghost Mother on the ninth floor..."

This altar was likely not created through the illusion of the realm, but rather by the people of the Samsara Sect. Furthermore, the Samsara Sect should also possess a set of scriptures, though they are not found at the ruins of the Guge Kingdom…”

"It must have been taken by someone."

Lu Jin didn't take it seriously. After all, the 100,000 citizens of the Guge Dynasty disappeared overnight, and the ruins of the dynasty were exposed rather than buried underground, making them more likely to be visited by all sorts of people.

Just as the silver-eyed nun said, anything of value has long been taken by passersby, so how could they possibly have a chance?

The place where the muskrats were kept was walled off and not connected to other caves, so outsiders couldn't find it and that's how they discovered it.

Immediately, he extended a magnetic field and connected with the brain's magnetic field. However, when he tried to lift it, it felt like he was lifting a mountain weighing a thousand pounds. No matter how hard he tried, he could not lift it out of the crystal box.

"Strange!"

# Chapter 1029 Split into Two Groups

"Is this head that heavy?"

Lu Jin got excited and quietly activated the second stage of the gene lock, fully activating his profound power, but the brain remained as steady as Mount Tai, completely unmoved.

"Is it really that heavy?"

Zhang Zhiwei didn't believe it. He stepped forward, held the crystal box in his hand, and lifted it up along with the fiery red brain. It felt like it was about the size of a 20-pound winter melon.

However, disregarding the weight of the crystal box, the brain itself only weighs about ten kilograms.

Indeed.

As a brain, weighing ten pounds is indeed excessive. You should know that for a normal person, including those who are practicing spiritual cultivation, the brain does not exceed three pounds.

Unless there is standing water.

Even so, it's impossible that it wouldn't be able to budge it even a little bit, right?

"Okay, it seems that I can't move it with my human magnetic field at this stage."

Seeing Zhang Zhiwei lift the brain of the First Ghost Mother so easily, Lu Jin knew that the brain weighed no more than a pumpkin.

The reason why a human's magnetic field cannot move anything is probably because, although the ability of a human to use magnetism is versatile and can control everything in the world that has a magnetic field, if that thing also has the ability to use a magnetic field, then the human's ability will be infinitely reduced or even rendered ineffective.

If we divide the cultivation of human magnetic fields according to the three levels that Brother Jiang told him about: Lesser Vehicle (self-rotation), Middle Vehicle (rotation with others), and Greater Vehicle (making others rotate with oneself), then even if the brain does not have the ability to create a human magnetic field, the way its internal brain magnetic flow flows must have reached the corresponding "Greater Vehicle" level.

To manipulate this mind using the power of human magnetism, one must advance their own cultivation to a higher level, or unlock the third stage of the gene lock.

of course.

Without using human magnetism, relying solely on brute force.

Let alone Zhang Zhiwei, even a three-year-old child could struggle to lift that brain, which weighs over ten kilograms.

"Give!"

Zhang Zhiwei handed the crystal box to the first generation Jiang Liu, but the latter did not take it. Instead, he took out the pair of Boundless Demon Eyes and handed them to Lu Jin, instructing the two of them: "Next, we will split into two groups. Lu Jin and Brother Zhiwei, you two deliver the Boundless Demon Eyes and the Ghost Mother's Brain to the Silver-Eyed Nun."

I reckon that without those two things, even if she wanted to cause trouble, the kind of commotion that would attract the attention of my primordial spirit or the snake god, she wouldn't be able to.

"I need her help."

After Lu Jin took the Boundless Demon Eye, Zhang Zhiwei closed the lid of the crystal box, a playful glint in his eyes, and asked, "Are you sure this is to help her?"

"She described the history of the Demon Kingdom, the Reincarnation Sect, the Guge Dynasty, and the Jingjue Ancient Kingdom to us, and led the way. She has done us a favor, so we should help her in return."

The first generation Jiang Liu argued vehemently, "As for persuasion... she's so old, how could she listen? We might as well go with the flow and let her experience it for herself."

The reason behind this can be summed up in just one sentence.

learn from mistakes.

If you want to help others, don't force it if you can't persuade them, or you'll only cause trouble. Just observe the situation and lend a hand at the most crucial moment.

of course.

The prerequisite is that you have the ability and can keep an eye on things at all times.

Given the current situation, Zhang Zhiwei and Lu Jin have both the ability and the time to keep a close eye on the silver-eyed nun's every move.

Meanwhile, Partridge Whistle, Old Foreigner, and Flower Spirit followed the First Generation River down to the Wind-Eroded Lake, heading to an even deeper underground space.

As for the fifteenth—

They were then asked to return with Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei and leave Kunlun, this place of trouble, as soon as possible.

However, after everyone left the Evil Luo Sea City, which was a manifestation of the illusory realm, the city became hazy and blurry, and finally dissipated into particles-like clouds and mist, disappearing into the air without leaving any trace.

Really?

Is it fake?

Fifteen patted his stomach, let out a burp, and realized that the meat he had eaten was still there.

But why did Eroha City disappear?

"This Evil Luo Sea City exists based on the memories within the brain of the first Ghost Mother. Those illusory, dreamlike mists are the medium connecting the brain and the Evil Luo Sea City."

However, the cities created by the celestial realm are real entities and cannot be moved.

However, the Demon Mother's brain is not completely fixed!

When the Demon Mother's brain leaves the city of Evil Luo Sea, severing its connection with it, then this conjured city will no longer be able to be maintained and will return to nothingness.

Seeing Fifteen's confusion, the First Generation Jiang Liu gave him a brief explanation of the reasons.

In essence, the ability of the Transformation Realm is based on the power of the mind, directly manipulating the omnipresent Primordial Chaos to construct the Primordial Chaos of all things, and the role of memory in this process is merely to serve as a mold.

As for the energy consumption to maintain the illusionary realm...

how to say?

The space here has long overlapped with the bottomless ghost cave, and its nature is similar to Hunyuanzi. Between the oscillations of space and time, energy is inexhaustible, so why worry about consumption?

The only thing to consider is how to expand the scope of one's abilities, which requires knowledge, an understanding of the laws of nature, and self-cultivation, among other things.

Strictly speaking, the Ghost Mother's brain has not truly awakened the light of the mind, nor can it use the power of the mind. The ability to conjure the Evil Luo Sea City actually relies on the light of the mind—faith—that unites the thoughts of all beings.

"So, don't worry about the beef you eat turning into dust or anything like that, because the moment it materializes, it's real beef!"

The first generation of Jiang Liu added.

"I see!"

Fifteen seemed to understand but not quite, but with the assurance that the flesh in his belly wouldn't turn into a toad or centipede, he felt relieved.

After Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei, carrying the Heavenly Golden Rhinoceros Horn, escorted the Fifteenth Prince towards the hundreds-of-meters-high ice crystal wall, the First Generation Jiang Liu said to Partridge Whistle, "Are you sure you want to come down with me? We can still catch up now."

“Brother Jiang, although you have lifted the curse on us, I still feel a little empty inside if I don’t personally deal with the serpent god that caused our Zaglama tribe so much suffering.”

Partridge Whistle was unwilling to leave just like that, leaving Jiang Liu to go on an adventure alone, not to mention that Jiang Liu had lost his primordial spirit because of it!
