Chapter 12 Self-Destruction Countdown(1/2)
The presence or absence of the sentence "the place where clear and turbid meet" in the remarks directly causes a 10% increase or decrease in the success rate.
There is no doubt that in terms of success rate, the emergence of this condition not only increases the difficulty, but also reduces the success rate of advancement. It seems obviously unnecessary.
However, Shang Xia focused more on the 10% reduction in fit.
"Get some inspiration from heaven and earth"!
There is no doubt that the real key lies in this sentence.
What exactly is the so-called "spirit of heaven and earth"?
And only “a little”!
Is it worth it?
However, if you look at it the other way around, and put aside the issue of compatibility, assuming that what Sifangbei gives is the most perfect, or the most cost-effective advanced formula for Shangxia individuals, does that mean that in Sifangbei "see
"Come", is it completely worth it to reduce the success rate by 10% in exchange for this "inspiration from heaven and earth"?
“Let’s first figure out what the so-called ‘place where pure and turbid meet’ actually refers to, and whether it’s possible for you to come into contact with it!”
Shang Xia smiled bitterly and shook his head, but it was not without speculation in his mind.
It's just that some traditional knowledge originating from his home world must be verified in this world before he can continue.
It's not that Shang Xia lacks courage, but that it concerns his own wealth and life. If he is not careful, he may lose control during the advancement process and eventually die.
What's more, Shang Xia knew only a little about some of the traditional culture in their home world, so how could they dare to copy it mechanically?
Just when Shang Xia withdrew his attention from the Sifang Monument and was about to tell Yan Qi to prepare the extraordinary materials missing in the advanced formula, a sudden cracking sound came from his mind.
"Crack-"
Shang Xia was startled, and his attention returned to the Sifang Monument almost instantly.
You can see a crack appearing from the top of the surface of the monument on the right side of the square monument, and then extending all the way down to the base!
what 's wrong?
Is it because of the emergence of advanced formulas?
Or to be more precise, is it because the deduction and improvement of the advanced formula caused some kind of consumption on the Sifang Monument itself, which eventually led to the cracking of the Monument?
Hmm, the martial arts magical power "Hunyuan Thunder Hand" has been deduced and improved before, or is it because of the superposition of the two?
Shang Xia identified the cause of the cracking of the monument almost immediately.
One side of the four-sided stele is now cracked...
In this way, if all four sides of the monument are cracked, will the entire monument collapse?
At this moment, the instinctive sense of crisis originating from his soul told him that it would definitely happen!
Moreover, Shang Xia's soul instinct told him that if the monument cracked and collapsed, his soul would also be annihilated!
In other words, from the moment he traveled to this world, the iron ruler, or the square tablet, as a carrier, has long been integrated with his soul, and it has been both prosperous and destructive!
So is it possible to repair the Sifang Monument?
Yes, there must be!
Shang Xia didn't believe that he came to this world just to wait for the countdown to self-destruction of his soul.
"There are still three sides of the four-sided monument that are intact. If we calculate based on the previous one-sided monument that can complete one martial arts deduction and one advanced formula improvement, then it means that I still have three chances. I must try my best before these three chances are exhausted.
Find a way to improve your own strength and find a way to bridge the monument!"
…………
"A place where purity and turbidity gather together?"
Zhang Haogu murmured to himself, but his expression was thoughtful.
When Shang Xia saw that there was something going on, he nodded quickly with a look of anticipation on his face.
Sure enough, Zhang Haogu took out a wooden box from the bookshelf in the room, and after opening it, there was a cloth charm covering it.
Shang Xia was not an inexperienced person. He only saw the material of the cloth and the martial arts runes embroidered on it, and knew that the power of this cloth talisman was probably much greater than his thunder pattern talisman board.
Under the cloth is a pile of scraps full of traces of fire, rot, rust, insect infestation, etc.
Many of the silk threads used to weave the bamboo slips together have long been broken, making the pile of bamboo slips look a bit disorganized.
"These are just ordinary bamboo slips!"
Although Shang Xia was a little stunned, there was no trace of contempt in his expression.
Just by looking at Zhang Jiaoxi's attitude of wrapping the talisman with care and taking it seriously, Shang Xia knew that this pile of tattered scraps was not simple.
At this time, Teacher Zhang stretched out his hand and the simple book in the wooden box levitated on its own, and flashed past his eyes in a rough order.
Shang Xia quickly looked at it, but because the slips flashed by so fast, he couldn't even see the writing on them clearly, except for the first bamboo slip.
This bamboo slip may have been noticed by Shang Xia because it had the name of the bamboo slip written on it. The only four characters written on it were very large.
"Book of Secrets"
These are the four characters on the first bamboo slip. The second one is so badly rusted that the writing is no longer legible.
Next, Shang Xia wanted to look again, but suddenly a disgusting feeling emerged from his chest, and he felt dizzy in his head, so he quickly looked away from the flashing slips.
Martial arts realm, the third level of martial arts!
Only when they reach this state can warriors truly touch the level of soul consciousness.
Only by reaching this level can one be able to accurately read the contents of each bamboo slip as the bamboo slips flash as quickly as Zhang Jiaoxi did.
"found it!"
Zhang Haogu's voice interrupted Shang Xia's thoughts.
When he looked up, he saw a relatively well-preserved slip floating in front of Zhang Jiaoxi's eyes.
"...the beginning of the cave sky is similar to the beginning of the heaven and the earth. The heaven and the earth suddenly appear. There is a light and spiritual energy floating in the sky, and a turbid and yin energy sinking to the earth..."
This time, Shang Xia didn't need to look at it, Zhang Haogu himself shook his head and chanted it.
Shang Xia was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed rapidly.
When Zhang Jiaoxi stroked his long beard and turned around, Shang Xia had only a confused look on his face.
"gentlemen……"
Seeing Shang Xia's eagerness for knowledge, Zhang Haogu was very satisfied and explained: "If my guess is correct, the so-called 'clear and turbid' should refer to the 'light spirit' on this slip."
'And 'turbid Yin Qi'!"
Shang Xia quickly asked: "But according to what the teacher just chanted, these two qi of 'clear and turbid' have already ascended to the sky and entered the earth, so how can there be a 'place of intersection'?"
This is the real purpose of Shang Xia!
As for the contents of the slip in Zhang Haogu's hand, Shang Xia probably understood it better than Zhang Haogu!
"It's not impossible..."
Zhang Haogu looked thoughtful.
Shang Xia was anxious and asked: "But that cave..."
Zhang Haogu raised his head and glanced at him, and Shang Xia shut up knowingly.
Zhang Haogu didn't explain, but he didn't blame either. He seemed to have deliberately avoided the "dongtian" and said: "The place of intersection is still possible, just like the 'war zone between two realms'!"
It’s another battle between two realms!
But it is indeed possible!
This time, there was no need for Shang Xia to ask any more questions. Zhang Haogu said to himself: "The war zone between the two worlds is a strange place formed by the intersection of the two worlds. The origins of heaven and earth of the two worlds are in conflict, and this 'light spirit' and
The 'turbid yin energy' may be a form of the original existence of the heaven and earth."
Shang Xia pondered for a moment and said: "Then I dare to ask, sir, if the boy is in a war zone between two realms, how should he distinguish between them?"
Zhang Haogu shook his head regretfully and said, "I don't know either!"
But before Shang Xia could show his disappointment, he heard Zhang Jiaoxi say again: "However, I might as well make some speculations about this."
Shang Xia was overjoyed, but he saw Zhang Haogu looking at him and said: "This 'place where pure and turbid meet' must be related to your advancement to Wuji Realm, right?"
