Chapter 642: The True Codex of Rules, the Fifth Inherited Item
“The Tao can be spoken, but it is not the real Tao; the name can be named, but it is not the real name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth; the named is the mother of all things. Therefore, always be without desire to observe its wonders. Always have desire to observe its boundaries. These two things come from the same source but have different names, and are both called mysterious. The more mysterious, the more mysterious, the door to all wonders”
“The movement of movement lies in the absence of movement; the action of action lies in the absence of action. When the qi stops, all things are born; when the qi disappears, all things die. All things support each other, and nourish their roots; silently understand it, and I plant it myself. Out of the boundless , immortal and non-living, one with heaven and earth"
"The nature of Tao is neither existent nor non-existent, the true nature is always there, so it is the Tao. Tao is existent but invisible, non-existent but emotional, unpredictable, and connected to all living things. It is a god in the human body, so it is the heart"
As the Taiqing Dao Canon, Yuqing Dao Canon and Shangqing Dao Canon turned into golden streams and merged into Zhao Chen's sea of consciousness, three completely different voices sounded in the sea of consciousness, telling the countless true meanings of the Three Qing Dao Canons.
Although the voices sounded at the same time, each voice was extremely clear, and the many mysteries contained in it made Zhao Chen intoxicated, and he couldn't help immersing himself in it, turning them into perceptions, absorbing and digesting them.
In Zhao Chen's sea of consciousness, three golden streams formed by countless words flowed in the sky, evolving various visions of the great Dao, which were even better than when the saints preached.
Time passed slowly, the voice of preaching gradually dissipated, and the countless visions of the Dao and the true meaning of the Dao scriptures also disappeared, leaving only countless golden words scattered in the vast sea of consciousness.
At the moment when the Dao sound ended, the golden sphere carrying the Immortal Emperor Law appeared in the sea of consciousness.
The power of the outer world's origin gradually melted away and was absorbed by Zhao Chen's soul, adding a bit of heaviness.
The Immortal Emperor Law manifested from it also turned into countless golden words at this moment, scattered in Zhao Chen's sea of consciousness, like dots of starlight dotted on the sky, showing the vastness of the sea of consciousness.
In the sea of consciousness, the Dao scriptures were chanted and the emperor law was manifested, but outside it was another scene.
The two upgrade cards that were saved and not used in the previous two store upgrades were now used by Zhao Chen, and the golden mist containing strange power filled every inch of this training room.
The many rule magic medicines that were originally controlled by the source power all turned into rich medicinal gas and rose up. Only the most core rule power was sealed in a separate space transformed by the source power. It seemed that a lot of it had been used for the time being.
In addition to the golden mist transformed by the upgrade card and the huge medicinal gas of the rule magic medicine, there were also primordial spiritual energy, heaven and earth spiritual energy, demonic energy, etc. that were continuously sent into the training room.
These energies from different worlds were mixed with the golden mist and medicinal gas, and then absorbed quickly by Zhao Chen, who was like a bottomless pit, and did not care about the type of these energies at all.
As for the source power in the body, it was not rejected, and it was absorbed as much as it could. Then it was converted into more source power.
As these energies were absorbed by the source power, Zhao Chen's hidden aura was slowly rising, until it reached a critical point and stopped rising, obviously reaching a bottleneck.
In such a bottleneck period, even the absorption of energy slowed down, but the source power in the body quietly changed the direction of flow, and it was getting slower and slower.
But this slowed down speed contains the accumulation of "momentum", like the calm before a big explosion
The outside gradually calmed down, but the sea of consciousness was different.
The Taoist scriptures and immortal emperor methods of the Three Pure Ones, these profound skills and magical powers, turned into golden characters at this moment, spreading all over the sea of consciousness.
Zhao Chen, who was sitting cross-legged above the sea of consciousness in the state of Yuanshen, was absorbing the golden characters around and farther away to the side of Yuanshen, and then directly absorbing and digesting them, obtaining the true meaning of these classics in the fastest way, and using it to impact the threshold of the seventh-grade realm.
Compared to ordinary practice and research, the method he used was several levels higher.
When all the golden characters were taken into the Yuanshen by Zhao Chen, the Yuanshen power containing three completely different characteristics dispersed from him, and countless tracks intertwined and emerged around him, outlining three mysterious patterns.
When the pattern was fully formed, the power of rules surged, making it manifest as three human figures with different appearances and temperaments.
Based on the power of the primordial spirit, the three patterns as the foundation, and the power of rules as the origin, these three clones were created.
One has a gentle smile on his face, which makes people feel like spring breeze, as if he is a collection of truth and goodness; one has a blank expression, his eyes are full of fierce light, and the malice around him is as if it is real; the last clone is no different from Zhao Chen himself, except that he has a little more transcendence.
From the perspective of the prehistoric world, these three clones are nothing but the three corpses of good, evil and self!
At the moment when the three corpses were completely transformed, in the vast sea of dimensions, a special wave instantly swept half of the area and spread to deeper and farther places.
In the places where the wave was shaken, all the worlds of the prehistoric world and its derivative types, all erupted with auspicious celestial phenomena with great momentum.
What kind of heavenly music is floating, thousands of flowers are blooming, what kind of fragrance is overflowing, thousands of beasts are singing, and purple air is coming from the east for three thousand miles, etc., are all there.
In short, all the strange phenomena that had appeared when the Dao ancestors in these worlds became saints were present, and even more auspicious phenomena of higher standards appeared.
In just the moment when these auspicious phenomena appeared, countless creatures benefited, either awakening their spiritual wisdom and embarking on the path of cultivation; or manifesting themselves and shedding their demonic bodies; or their magic power increased greatly, and they could expect to achieve the great way.
These creatures who had benefited all knelt on the ground, but because they didn't know where the strange phenomenon came from, they could only kneel down according to their intuition and thank the new saint for the good fortune he brought!
But for the original saints in these worlds, they all frowned and used their calculations to deduce the secrets of heaven.
The results of the calculations were all blank. Not only could they not determine the source of the strange phenomenon, this was not suspicious. It was possible that the new saint didn't want others to disturb him and blocked the secrets of heaven.
But why couldn't they even calculate whether someone really became a saint?
It couldn't be that the Heavenly Dao had nothing to do and was looking for fun to tease these people and the prehistoric creatures!
Suspicious, really too suspicious!
Although these great masters from different worlds told themselves so, the inexplicable feeling in their hearts was slightly happy, as if they had encountered something good.
At this moment, the saints began to doubt the possibility that the Heavenly Dao was playing a trick on them.
In the origin of each world, the many world consciousnesses awakened by the special fluctuations were all very happy, and this happiness was reflected in the world itself, which was the endless auspicious visions.
"This is really great. I didn't expect that His Highness would return this time to the same cultivation path as ours. I'm really happy!"
"Hahahaha, quickly find a few more Taoist friends to discuss and see if there are any auspicious visions that can be released. This is really great news!"
"Heavenly Dao, come quickly, release as many auspicious visions as you can, don't care about the calamity or not, compared to celebrating His Highness's choice of the path to sainthood, it's all a small matter!"
""
At this moment, all these world consciousnesses were very happy, and they happily created a celebration ceremony that was getting more and more grand. I don't know how many creatures in the world benefited from it.
At the same time, in the practice room.
Due to the changes in the Yuanshen in the sea of consciousness, some changes also occurred in the outside world accordingly.
The soul soldier wristband on Zhao Chen's right wrist automatically detached and floated in front of him, while the Unbounded Sword consciousness that was collected in the warehouse took the initiative to squeeze out of the warehouse space and landed on the right side.
As for the last left side, the Tianzhen Yushi that was placed on the food street market for profit appeared.
In addition to the Qiankun baking furnace, the other three inheritances seemed to have become the carriers for Zhao Chen to entrust the three corpses. He only needed to send the three soul clones out of the sea of consciousness and use the three inheritances to truly kill the three corpses.
After completing the final integration of the three corpses, he could truly break through the seventh level!
Unfortunately, the result was not like this.
Before the disc-shaped Tianzhen Yushi appeared on the left side, it stopped crossing the space. After a few slight vibrations, it returned to where it should be. Judging from its flight trajectory, it seemed to be a little excited?
The soul soldier wristband and the Unbounded Sword that had appeared in the exact position also seemed to have received some signal. They shook a few times on the spot and returned to their original positions one by one.
In Zhao Chen's truth, the soul, which had been digesting the Three Pure Ones Dao Canon and the Immortal Emperor Law with its eyes closed, suddenly opened its eyes. At the moment of divine light, the fully formed three corpse clones were directly beaten back to their original form, and then merged with the soul again.
It took about two breaths of time for the soul and the soul power to reunite, but after all, it was the soul power that had manifested the three corpses, so there were still some changes, but they were not very conspicuous.
In this case, the special fluctuations in the dimensional sea stopped immediately and no longer spread.
The world consciousnesses that noticed that this fluctuation was no longer advancing suddenly had different moods. The world consciousnesses of the prehistoric and derivative types stopped cheering and Gao Xin, and had a bad premonition.
The other world consciousnesses secretly had some expectations. After all, if they did not take the path of becoming a saint, maybe it would be their turn?
But the facts proved that they were all thinking too much.
After the soul clone returned to the origin, Zhao Chen's soul had a blank look on his face, but he gave birth to his right hand and lightly tapped it. At the same time, the sound of the soul sounded in the sea of consciousness.
"Return!"
As soon as the sound of the word fell, his sea of consciousness began to change. This change was very fast, and it was completed in just a breath.
When the change was completed, countless black characters appeared in the sea of consciousness. These characters seemed to have been engraved in every corner of the sea of consciousness from the beginning, and only appeared now.
These black characters did not emit any fluctuations, as if they were just simple characters, just in the sea of consciousness, and they would flow.
Yes, flowing!
These black characters were all flowing, and they were all moving in the direction of Zhao Chen's soul, and the final location was the right hand of the soul spread out in front of the chest.
About three or five breaths later, all the black characters gathered above Zhao Chen's soul's right hand, which looked like a black mass, and no one knew what it was.
Then, this special object formed by countless black characters, who didn't know what it was, emitted a faint glow.
After the brilliance, it, or rather, they, became a book.
A book that looked quite thick and had an old-fashioned style!
The surface of the book, with black as the base color, was interwoven with countless dark golden lines, creating a picture full of beauty.
On the cover, there were two words that were also dark golden - [Rules]!
Apart from these two points, there was nothing else special.
However, when this book was fully formed, the aura emanating from Zhao Chen's soul was no longer in the category of sixth grade and ten stars, he had been promoted to seventh grade!
The changes in the soul led to changes in other parts, and the sea of consciousness alone expanded dozens of times.
The originally boundless sea of consciousness was now even more vast and boundless. It is estimated that even Hongmeng's sea of consciousness may not be comparable to Zhao Chen's.
Then there is the body from the outside world. The body that has stopped absorbing the energy from the outside world has now completely transformed into a bottomless pit or a black hole, madly devouring all the energy around it.
All kinds of energy mixed in everything were swallowed up and absorbed by Zhao Chen. In just a few minutes, the golden mist that once filled the entire training room was sucked clean!
But that's about it, because now the momentum he exudes has broken through the previous commanding heights and achieved a new realm for the party!
When all the dust settled, the channel responsible for transporting various energies to the practice room closed on its own, and the remaining energy was slowly absorbed and refined by Zhao Chen.
In the end, only Zhao Chen was left in the training room and dozens of strands of rule power sealed with source power.
"Congratulations to the shop owner for successfully being promoted to the seventh level. Now the shop level is six stars, which complies with the principles of selecting inheritance items. Please choose new inheritance items!"
The congratulatory notice from the system assistant came at the right time, directly waking Zhao Chen up from his retreat state.
Zhao Chen, who seemed to have had a good night's sleep, stood still, pretended to stretch, and then reached out to take back the source power ball floating around him into his body, and the power of the rules sealed in it was naturally swallowed up.
"Part of the mystery has been solved, and two special magic weapons have been harvested, the [Rule Code] and the [Law Code]. This breakthrough can be said to have exceeded the target!"
Turning his hands over, two books appeared on his left and right hands. The one on the right hand was the [Sacred Book of Rules] that had been gathered and formed in the right hand of the soul, and the one on the left hand was naturally the [Sacred Book of Laws].
This [Book of Laws] is none other than the insights about the Laws that appeared in Zhao Chen's mind when he was in the sixth level realm, now compiled into a book.
After looking down at the two scriptures, Zhao Chen sighed and took them back to the sea of consciousness, and continued to place them in the hands of the soul.
From now on, I have to slowly understand it again!
"Tong'er, among the four remaining inheritance items, which one was left by the first-generation prototype holder?"
While Zhao Chen was speaking, the power of space rules surged, and the surrounding environment changed, from the training room to the inheritance room. At this time, in this room, there were four inheritance items for him to choose from.
Currently, these four inheritance items are placed on the table against the wall, each in a brocade box.
They are a seed the size of a billiard ball, a thirteen-story pagoda made of pure gold, a mask that can cover half of the face, and a simple ring.
Zhao Chen slowly swept his eyes over the remaining four inheritance items, waiting for the answer from the system.
The system assistant's response was as quick as ever: "According to the query of 60% of the unlocked store information database, the inheritance left by the first prototype holder is an item called [Primary Seed]. The specific effect is not clear.”
Hearing this, Zhao Chen reached out and picked up the seed the size of a billiard ball and continued to ask: "Not sure about the effect? Insufficient authority or what?"
The system did not answer this question. Instead, a notification interface popped up. The content above was enough to answer Zhao Chen's question.
"Inherited item: the original seed, level: unknown, effect: unknown, introduction: item left by the holder of the first generation prototype body"
A very brief introduction, it doesn’t even take a second to read this.
Looking from the notification interface to the billiard ball-sized seed in his hand, Zhao Chen hesitated slightly because he felt friendly from this seed.
Damn it, could it be that he was really a plant in his previous life, and he would actually feel kind to a seed!
However, thinking of his previous experience of encountering trees when he went out, Zhao Chen felt that his guess was 40 to 50% credible.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally decided to choose this inheritance, not only because of the intimacy, but also his intuition.
Zhao Chen's intuition kept telling him that choosing this would definitely be beneficial!
"The selection of the inheritance has been completed and it is confirmed to be the [First Seed]"
After a few simple words, the selection of the inheritance was completed, and the so-called [First Seed] was temporarily placed in the warehouse by Zhao Chen.
Finding the truth about this kind of thing is not a matter of urgency. He still has to put 50 billion in the first position now!
Zhao Chen quickly left the inheritance room and returned to his position.
However, he did not notice that the seed he put into the warehouse was emitting a faint soft light.
