Chapter 1382 Explorer’s Lower Bound
Facing the young man's request, after a long time, the man in black next to the willow tree opened his eyes.
Being looked directly at by the man, the young man felt a chill, but he still mustered up the courage to stand up straight, his eyes showing his desire for the world.
"May I have your name?"
Lu Chen said, looking at the eleven or twelve year old boy.
The young man felt happy because Lord Sacrifice Spirit replied to his words, and he quickly said: "Shi Yunfeng."
Lu Chen understood. He raised his hand and pointed out some simple cultivation methods into Shi Yunfeng's mind. "Don't go too far, otherwise you won't be able to find your way home."
The young Shi Yunfeng was extremely pleasantly surprised. He had never seen such a magical technique before. He just clicked on it to put something in his mind.
He kowtowed quickly and said, "Thank you, Lord Sacrificial Spirit, for giving me the Dharma."
A few years later, Shi Yunfeng, who was fifteen years old, left the village for more than thirty years.
He traveled millions of miles across the wilderness, traveled to mountains and rivers, and gained more knowledge. Although he failed to leave the mountains in the end, he also broadened his horizons.
He fulfilled part of his childhood wish. He walked out of Stone Village and saw a wider world, but he still could not get out of the wilderness.
Years later, he often recalled what Master Ji Ling told him when he left home: Don't go too far, otherwise you won't be able to find your way home.
He felt sighs and regrets in his heart, because he was young and vigorous, had traveled through too many dangerous places, and had already lost his way in the wilderness.
In fact, he wanted to go back to Shicun three years after leaving home, but without knowing the way, he kept walking further and further away.
After he became stronger, he finally determined his location through some news from other tribesmen and found his way back to Stone Village.
Today, Shi Yunfeng is already a strong man among the small and medium-sized tribes in the wilderness. His cultivation at the peak of the Blood Movement Realm has completely distanced him from those who have not practiced before.
When he returned to Shicun, he was already forty-five years old, which was considered a long life in the wilderness.
Because people live in the wilderness, few can grow old. Most of them die in hunting. Their life is trapped, so they have to fight with ferocious beasts all year round.
The return of the forty-five-year-old Shi Yunfeng caused an uproar in the village, because he was already this age, but he did not look old at all. Instead, he looked like a strong man of thirty years old.
As a cultivator, Shi Yunfeng has abundant energy and blood. Although he is getting older, his body is getting stronger. The muscles under the animal skin clothing are tangled and look like a beast.
After returning to the village, he suddenly felt like he was in another world. Looking at the somewhat unfamiliar village, Shi Yunfeng burst into tears.
Because his father and mother have passed away long ago, he traveled far away for thirty years and never had time to meet them.
He regretted why he had to walk so far, blamed himself for not being able to find his way home in the first place, and in the end could only cry helplessly in front of his parents' graves.
He stayed in front of the tomb for half a month until one of his childhood friends, one of the few people he knew in the village, woke him up.
Time has passed, just thirty years later, and this small village in the wilderness has changed. A new generation has replaced the old.
After Shi Yunfeng paid homage to his parents, he went to the back of the village with Fa Xiao. He hadn't seen them for thirty years, and he didn't know how the spirits in the village were doing now.
When he came to the back of the village, he was surprised because the black-clothed spiritual worshiper who had taught him the Dharma was gone, and only the willow tree was standing there.
Thirty years later, the willow tree is no longer as lifeless as it was when it died. Instead, new shoots sprout from the stump, green, very delicate, and exuding vitality.
"A Fei, where is the spirit-sacrifice master?"
Shi Yunfeng was confused and asked his friend A Fei.
"The human-looking spirit-sacrifice master left twenty years ago. He seemed to have done something outside the village before he left. No ferocious beasts have dared to invade Stone Village in recent years, but under the spirit-sacrifice master After we left, some wild beasts came closer, so we didn’t have to travel far so hard to hunt.”
A Fei explained, "The Lord Sacrifice in Black said that we don't have to worry, God Willow will protect us. In fact, God Willow is indeed very powerful. There once was a ferocious bird that I didn't recognize crossed from the sky and wanted to invade Shicun. Pierced by the willow branches of the Willow God."
A Fei pointed to some bones behind the willow tree. They belonged to a raptor. They were obviously very huge, almost ten feet long. Shi Yunfeng had been traveling for many years and had never seen such a large bird.
"Liu Shen..."
Shi Yunfeng worshiped with A Fei. They had made sacrifices every year over the years, but Liu Shen basically never enjoyed the sacrifices.
What reassures the villagers is that Willow God will indeed bless this small village as the black-clothed sacrificial spirit said.
Liu Shen's work is very simple, she cares about cause and effect. She frightened away the old sacrificial spirit of Shicun, and took advantage of Shicun's opportunity to achieve nirvana, so she would naturally bless the people of this small village.
As for Lu Chen, no one in Shicun knew where he had been in the past twenty years. Some people thought that the black-robed priest might not come back again.
At this moment, Lu Chen himself was walking on the street.
He is not a very sit-down person in the Stone Kingdom. He has already studied the ancestral artifacts of the Stone Village. According to his level, he can be said to be thorough.
It is indeed extraordinary. Lu Chen suspects that there are items left behind by Stone King, one of the seven kings of the Frontier. It was originally the work of an Immortal King. Liu Shenruo said it was just chance.
But the most important thing about Shicun is that in the big cauldron that is usually used to boil medicine, there is a bone cauldron, which contains the original true solution and transcendence chapter.
Liu Shen herself owns a part of the original true explanation, part one, but it is not complete. The opportunity she mentioned is to deduce the whereabouts of part of the original true explanation, the second part, which is the bone tripod of Shicun. Even after leaving, I couldn't see the mystery of the bone tripod.
Or maybe she saw it, but didn't point it out, leaving it to Emperor Huang Tian to figure it out on his own, leaving these outsiders unknown.
Lu Chen studied the bone cauldron. He did not break the bronze wall outside, but just immersed himself in it with his great supernatural power to observe. When he saw clearly what was on the bone wall, he lost interest.
He guessed right back then. What the commoner old man passed on to him was the original true solution, and it was the first half of the complete version, which was the foundation before becoming an immortal.
Inside the Bone Cauldron was the Transcendence Chapter, which was the path of the Red Dust Immortal. Lu Chen had already walked it, so naturally he lost interest.
He informed Liu Shen with his spiritual mind that whether he wanted to refer to it or not would depend on Liu Shen's wishes after he recovered.
Liu Shen had a rare awakening at that time, and gave him a piece of bone script engraved with complicated patterns, which was the first part of the original true explanation. Lu Chenyan said that he had it, and Liu Shen stopped mentioning it.
Because there is nothing surprising about this. Many major religions have preserved the original true explanation (Part 1), but it is just as incomplete as Liu Shen, and not everyone can understand it.
A good Dharma requires good understanding. Not everyone can understand the original true meaning while still nursing like Shi Hao.
Lu Chen passed on the complete original true explanation, Part 1, to Liu Shen to help him transform. Liu Shen felt a little ashamed. He clearly said that he came to lead Lu Chen to find opportunities, but he was favored again and again.
Lu Chen didn't want Liu Shen to be suspicious, so he could only reveal part of his origins, saying that Liu Shen defended the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and he respected him very much.
He finished looking at the ancestral artifacts in Shicun, and there was no Milkman to tease, so he didn't stay long.
The main reason is that although the villagers are simple, they are still a little afraid of him. He is sitting in Shicun, and many people seem to be uncomfortable. In addition, his skills have reached a critical period of transformation, and his aura sometimes floats, causing thousands of miles around. All the wild animals have fled. If this continues, the residents of Shicun will not be able to hunt prey and may starve to death.
So he left, planning to come back when Milkman was almost in place.
“Freshly baked sweet potatoes, a holiday secret, don’t miss it if you’re passing by...”
"Candied haws on a stick... delicious, not sour and sweet candied haws on a stick..."
After walking through the streets and alleys, Lu Chen had a few more skewers of candied haws on his left hand, and two more pieces of roasted sweet potatoes on his right hand. He had one bite after another on his left hand, which looked nothing delicious.
Traveling around the mortal world relaxed Lu Chen's heart a lot, and he felt that he was in an unprecedented tranquility.
Humans are indeed social animals. No matter how strong you are, you will still be afraid of loneliness. When you reach the top of the mountain alone, with martial arts alone, looking back, all you want is to take a walk in the sunset with the one you love. That’s all.
Lu Chen walked towards the sky, and no one noticed his movements. As his path was completed, his aura had been perfectly restrained. Even if he was walking in the world of mortals, he would not scare anyone.
He came to Prince Wu's Mansion in the Stone Kingdom and met the upright and powerful Demon God Shi Zhongtian. Sure enough, he was worthy of being the protagonist of the older generation, and he really had good qualifications.
In Lu Chen's opinion, Shi Zhongtian's cultivation place is not very good. If he has a good guide, his breakthrough speed may not be worse than that of some outstanding geniuses in the upper world.
Lu Chen had been here once twenty years ago. At that time, Shi Ziling was not even born yet and Shi Zhongtian was still a young man. He and Shi Zhongtian met by chance in the imperial city and gave him some instructions, but did not teach him any cultivation methods. Law.
The main plot is about to begin, and there are many things that he cannot easily tamper with. Even if Emperor Huang Tian's Dao Fruit is the only one, if the influence and interference are too great, it is difficult to say whether something terrible will happen.
The Great Demon God Shi Zhongtian is standing in the school grounds to give guidance to his son. Now Shi Ziling is also full of vigor. He is one of the most outstanding young talents in the Shi Kingdom. He can be said to be high-spirited, has a good family background, is handsome, and feels that he is the most popular in the world. Go ahead.
"Huh?"
Lu Chen was playing in the world of mortals, watching with gusto, when suddenly he felt something in his heart and looked in one direction in the sky.
Someone has gone down to the realm, and fighting is still breaking out.
This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in the Eight Realms. Many great sects are related to the upper world, such as Bulao Mountain, Butian Sect, and Jietian Sect. They sometimes have "leaders" from the upper world.
But generally speaking, those who descend are all venerables. Those who are above the divine fire realm have to pay a high price if they want to come down. But for those who are truly strong, such as the supremes of this era, if they want to come down, It's not that easy. They feel that this place is just a prison, and there is no need to come down in person to find opportunities.
Even if there is something of interest, juniors will be sent to handle it, such as outstanding young men in the Venerable Realm.
As for why these restrictions are so "just right", when Lu Chen first read the novel, he thought it was to give the protagonist room to grow. The author deliberately set it. After actual research, he found that this was not the case.
But when a monk becomes a god, that is, after igniting the divine fire in the current cultivation system, some qualitative changes will occur. The eight realms of the lower realm are called cages because they are meant to seal them off and prevent people who have exceeded a certain level from coming out.
If the door of a prison is closed, it is naturally inaccessible from the inside and outside. The gap in the bars is only so big that the smaller ones can get through, but if the larger ones want to get in, they will naturally have to squeeze out a piece of flesh.
Only a strong person like Lu Chen can force his way into the lower realm without paying any price, because although the lower realm is very deep, it is actually just a small world.
With the cultivation of Lu Chen and Liu Shen, they could create or destroy at will when they were in their prime. How could such a world come and go to stop them.
What surprised Lu Chen at this moment was that he actually felt that there were several strong men who clearly exceeded the upper limit of entering this world fighting. Although they limited the impact of their attacks on this world and reduced the movement, they still There is no escaping his perception.
He is really an unparalleled powerhouse. Even if he is placed in the upper world, he is still a supreme figure who dominates the world. How did a person with such strength come down?
Lu Chen looked from a distance and knew clearly in his heart that these were actually two explorers. They were not practitioners at all. Although their bodies were powerful and immortal, they had no connection with the laws of heaven and earth. Naturally, there was no restriction through the cage.
Obviously, these are two eighth-level explorers. They were sent to this era, but they didn't know how long they stayed.
Lu Chen touched his chin, feeling that things would gradually become more and more chaotic, and the plot would begin. Although there was the possibility of committing suicide, many explorers were unwilling to give up the opportunity of the lower world and wanted to get involved.
