Chapter Forty-Second(1/2)
When Henghua was thinking hard, Zhou Xiao hurried in.
"I heard you got a big mahogany box?"
Seeing the open wooden box next to Henghua, he quickly picked up a book and checked it.
Henghua's eyes flickered and he put down the book in his hand: "It's just a wooden box, why is Senior Zhou so panicked?"
Zhou Xiao stared at the book for a long time, but didn't see any clues. He just counted the number of books, and then looked at the Bagua golden lock on the side of the wooden box. His expression was extremely solemn.
Everything is correct, it is indeed this thing!
"The Fu family comes from Fufeng Immortal Palace, and the allusion to the red wooden box, don't you know?"
Henghua shook his head.
Mahogany box? What does my mother’s dowry box really mean?
Zhou Xiao walked around the room and pondered for a long time before he said: "You also love to read. If I don't give you a clue, you will inevitably go the wrong way in the future. That's all... do you remember the long-lasting war against evil in China?"
In the Chinese calendar, in addition to the fight between immortals and demons, many evil cultivators who do not tolerate the two are also active on the Chinese stage. The Evil Soul Cult is an example.
"Remember, the two families of immortals and demons joined forces to suppress the evil cultivators in the world and killed them one by one. Later, the method of evil cultivators was officially banned."
While speaking, Henghua looked at the book at hand.
"We practicing monks all know that evil magic has not stopped at all. Evil cultivators hide the inheritance in books in advance and scatter it into the mortal world. As a result, smart people often go astray and create evil inheritance. You guys
Yanlong’s Paradise Sect is one example.”
Henghua pretended to be surprised: "Senior, what do you mean, the books in this mahogany box are related to witchcraft?"
"It's more than just about."
Zhou Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Before the death of the last evil cultivator, he told the senior immortals that in order to pass down the evil arts, he hid 3,600 evil spells in mortal books and sealed them in nine big red wooden boxes."
"Each mahogany box contains eight hundred volumes of mortal books and four hundred evil spells."
Heng Hua's heart skipped a beat, four hundred? I just translated three hundred evil spells into my mother's mahogany box, but so much was left out?
"Since there are so many evil spells, why not destroy them early? Are there things in these boxes that cannot be destroyed?"
"good."
Zhou Xiao looked at Henghua approvingly.
"Back then, the evil cultivator hid a heavenly book in nine wooden boxes. Therefore, the immortal immortals did not dare to destroy the mahogany boxes after getting them.
"Eight of the wooden boxes contain fragments of the Book of Heaven, and the ninth box contains the complete Book of the Book of Heaven."
The Book of Heaven, even in the era of China, was an inheritance that everyone rushed to grab.
Throughout the history of Donglai Shenzhou, a total of five heavenly books appeared.
Henghua raised his eyebrows and said, "Baji Book or Hunyuan Golden Seal? It can't be a new Heavenly Book, right?"
There are traces of the three heavenly books of Taixuan, Taiyin, and Xuanming, which created today's two lines of immortals and demons. And during the "War to Destroy Evil", the descendants of the three heavenly books were all present, so evil cultivators naturally could not obtain these three heavenly books.
"Nine boxes, don't you already have the answer in your mind?"
""Yitian Baji Shu"." Henghua stared at the mahogany box with eager eyes.
Book of heaven.
Although Henghua was so arrogant that he wanted to create his own Heavenly Book. But he also knew that it was difficult to create the Heavenly Book, and its significance was far beyond that of the Earthly Codex Immortal Jue.
The Book of Heaven is not just a piece of practice, but an entire system of practice.
The Taixuan Heavenly Book created the Taixuan Sect, which was once very prosperous, and has far-reaching significance for the entire Donglai Immortal Way. It may be an exaggeration to say that all Taoist traditions in the world have Taixuan. But to say that 70% of the sects have Taixuan is definitely an understatement.
. Donglai Immortalism started with a copy of "Tai Xuan Tian Shu".
Xuan Ming's true strategy is the supreme method of the Demon Sect. With only the fragments of the chapter, the Xuan Ming Demon Emperor unified the Thirteen Demon Palaces and rampaged across Donglaiwan Island. It was not until hundreds of years ago that the major immortal sects jointly launched an encirclement and suppression campaign, and the Xuan Ming Demon Palace was removed from the Ming Dynasty.
Destroyed on the surface.
"Yes, it is the Baji Book. This book determines the basis of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and covers all phenomena in the world. If you can interpret and understand it, it will be no less useful to people in our generation than the supreme elixir or the pure Yang celestial weapon."
Henghua stared at the mahogany box.
The Fu family left notes from their predecessors, which mentioned: "The Book of Eight Extremes is divided into the Eight Trigrams Palace Department, and its Xun Gua Wind Department lineage is most compatible with the Fufeng Immortal Technique."
Henghua is confident that he can help the Fu family complete the practice method by finding the Xunfeng part of the Baji Book without the need for the entire book.
Seeing Henghua deep in thought, Zhou Xiao said: "It is precisely because of the importance of this heavenly book that those seniors did not dare to destroy it easily even if they knew the taboos of sealing it in the red wooden box."
Henghua remained silent.
Yes, if it were him, he wouldn't destroy the mahogany box directly. Instead, he would destroy the mahogany box after deciphering and finding the fragments of the Book of Heaven.
"Speaking of which, the evil cultivator deliberately placed the entire volume in a wooden box in an attempt to trigger internal strife within the Immortal Sect?"
"Yes, but there was no fight in the end. The seniors saw through his little thoughts, and after negotiation, the nine strongest immortal sects at the time each took away a mahogany box. Who can get the original copy of "The Book of Eight Extremes" depends entirely on
Opportunity.”
"Nine? I remember that during the battle to destroy evil, the strongest eight lines were 'one sect, one sect, two pavilions and four palaces'. What other sects are there besides this?"
One sect is naturally Taixuan Sect.
One sect refers to Chiyuan Taoist sect, which is second only to Taixuan Sect.
There are two pavilions, Zihuang Pavilion and Yusheng Pavilion.
The fourth palace is Fufeng, Yunlie, Leixiao, and Jinyu.
Before the death of the palace owner of Fufeng Fairy Palace, Fufeng Fairy Palace could still stand at the top level of Donglai. But after the death of the palace owner, Fufeng Fairy Palace declined, and no immortals were in charge. At the time of the collapse of the continent, Fufeng Fairy Palace
The palace has almost been reduced to a mid-level immortal sect.
"Of course it's Grandma Taiyin. She is the descendant of the Taiyin Heavenly Book, a well-known Xianzhen in the world. One person is a sect. Taixuan Sect distributes red wooden boxes, and her share is indispensable."
Henghua grinned: "Taiwan has a single transmission of unified pulse, what kind of Baji Heavenly Book does she want? It's of no use to her at all."
Zhou Xiao nodded.
He also asked his master the same question when he was young.
Master Heng Yuan said: Grandma Taiyin was one of the five great masters of the Immortal Way back then. Due to emotions and reasons, she cannot be left out.
Zhou Xiao: "The mahogany box in front of me is probably the one inherited from Yunlie Immortal Palace."
"Then what does senior plan to do?"
"What can I do with the opportunity you got?" Zhou Xiao smiled bitterly, "If there is a genuine heavenly book hidden in it, or a copy of Xunfeng. If I force you to destroy it, wouldn't it mean that you and the Fu family are cut off from the opportunity."
Henghua quickly thanked him.
Zhou Xiao sighed quietly.
He can't protect himself now, and even if he wants to stop Henghua, he can't.
"But you should also be alert. These taboo objects are very dangerous. The wooden box of Taixuanzong caused many monks to go crazy even in the Chinese era."
The evil cultivator once had a forbidden law.
Beings above the golden elixir cannot see the spells he casts and cannot find evil spells. Only disciples below the golden elixir can search for the heavenly book. At the same time, the lower the cultivation level, the better, and mortals are the best.
This purpose is to borrow shells from the immortal sects to lay eggs and lead the disciples of the major immortal sects to fall into evil ways.
Zhou Xiao recalled something and said in a serious tone: "As you read these books, the evil magic hidden in them can also pollute the soul and distort the will."
Suddenly, Henghua asked: "Which one from Taixuanzong is in Xuanwei sect?"
"exist--"
Zhou Xiao secretly regretted his blurt.
But after thinking about it, he still told him calmly: "That mahogany box is indeed in our Xuanwei sect. I read books when I was young and translated twenty evil spells."
Henghua said in surprise: "Twenty gates?"
"Of course," Zhou Xiao said proudly, "it is precisely because I have deciphered the twenty tabooed magic arts that I have the largest number among my fellow sects. And I have not been contaminated by evil thoughts, so I was valued by my master and accepted as my direct disciple."
So little? Henghua swallowed back the second half of the sentence silently.
Zhou Xiao: "Over the past thousand years, our Xuanwei Sect has deciphered 351 evil spells in total, but we still have not been able to find the Heavenly Book. When I went to your house to recruit disciples, I am afraid that I was tempted to borrow the 'Heavenly Tong Huixin'"
Intend."
Regarding this, he had a bit of guilt on his face.
Let young people with shallow spiritual practice read about evil arts. The higher their understanding, the more likely they are to be corrupted by evil.
Henghua's eyes were calm, as if what he was talking about was not him at all.
Zhou Xiao: "The reason why your seniors blocked it is that my senior brother secretly speculated that your family may have kept the mahogany box inherited from Fufeng Immortal Palace. After all, the disciples of the Fu family who were in Fufeng Immortal Palace were the ones who managed the Sutra Collection Pavilion."
The Fu family inherited the mahogany box from Fufeng Immortal Palace?
No, that's not right, the mahogany box in Langhuan Pavilion was not handed down from the ancestors at all, but was brought by my mother when she married into Panlong Island.
Henghua secretly wondered: Could it be that there is another one in the Fu family besides his mother's mahogany box? So which sect inherited this one from his mother?
Taixuanzong is impossible.
