Chapter 244 The basic branch of the Soul Avenue, spiritual thinking
"Ultimate treasure?"
Shen Mu's eyes fell on the glazed treasure box held by Li Yang Tiancheng's hands.
Noticing the change in Shen Mu's demeanor, Li Yang Tiancheng looked extremely respectful, bowed slightly, held the treasure box firmly with both hands, and said in a pious tone: "Your Majesty, please take a look."
< br>With that said, Li Yang Tiancheng opened the treasure box. At this moment, time seemed to slow down.
When the lid of the box slowly opened, a mysterious light bloomed instantly. The light was like a bright star, illuminating everything around it.
A bloodline golden elixir exuding mysterious light appeared in front of you, suspended in the treasure box.
This golden elixir is crystal clear, like the most magnificent and clear crystal in the world.
On the surface of the golden elixir, countless mysterious lines flow through it, as if the mysteries of the universe are intertwined within it. There is a light that is sometimes soft and sometimes brilliant, flickering on and off indefinitely, exuding a special soul charm.
Liyang Tiancheng saw that Shen Mu’s attention was attracted by the golden elixir, and quickly introduced it to Shen Mu.
"Your Majesty, this bloodline golden elixir comes from the life of a dragon-like ferocious beast that defies the heavens."
"Thousands of centuries ago, Shiwan Mountain once launched a tide of beasts into the northwest region. That beast wave The scale of the tide has been rare in ancient times, and the fallen demon gods and sages have no idea how large it is."
"I. The ancient ancestor of the clan fell into this beast wave, but not in the hands of the demon god, but with a seriously injured and dying beast."
Shen Mu stared at this piece. Golden elixir, there is a bright clear light flowing in the eyes, as if to see through the surface of the golden elixir and see through the essence.
“This bloodline golden elixir comes from that seriously injured and dying beast, right?”
Shen Mu could clearly detect the fluctuations of the soul path and blood contained in this golden elixir. This was an extremely special and perfect fluctuation, somewhat similar to the complete destruction path fluctuations on the World Beast King.
In this world, there are actually heaven-defying creatures that are born to represent the origin of a complete soul?
Shen Mu was a little unsure. Logically speaking, this kind of creature should not exist, because the soul path is different from any great road. It is a path that leads directly to transcending the cage.
"Your Majesty, this golden elixir is the last legacy left by our ancestors, and it is also a treasure that our family has preserved over countless years."
Shen Mu pondered slightly, for a moment Then he spoke slowly.
"That's all, this treasure is precious, so I'll give you another chance."
"Li Yangchen, if you can understand the meaning of fire within a hundred years this time, I will accept you as my disciple. "
Li Yangchen was lying on the ground crying, but when he heard Shen Mu's words, his eyes instantly ignited with hope.
"Thank you teacher, I will try my best to live up to the teacher's expectations."
As he spoke, Li Yangchen's body trembled slightly, he kowtowed heavily, and the sound of his forehead hitting the ground was clear and crisp. And loud.
Then, Shen Mu turned to face Li Yang Tiancheng and others. Wherever his eyes passed, everyone lowered their heads.
"I will be in retreat again. If you have nothing important to do during this period, please don't disturb me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Please respect me. ”
……
In the dilapidated courtyard, moss grows tenaciously in the gaps, and the mottled marks on the walls shine with a mysterious light.
Shen Mu's figure sat cross-legged in the courtyard. Countless mysterious patterns bloomed on Shen Mu's fingertips, condensing into a chain of avenues, completely sealing off the entire courtyard.
This bloodline golden elixir is not ordinary. If you can obtain the soul path bloodline in it, the difficulty of understanding the soul path will be greatly reduced in the future, so during this period, there can be no interruption.
Buzz!
The glazed treasure box was opened, and the crystal clear ancient golden elixir was suspended in front of Shen Mu like a miniature star, scattering invisible light.
"Don't let me down."
Shen Mu no longer hesitated and took the bloodline elixir.
In an instant, a soft and special force spread out from Shen Mu's body, integrating into every particle of Shen Mu's divine body, as if modifying some genetic trait.
During this process, Shen Mu also manifested his true self involuntarily. Under the shining divine light, a ten-foot-tall giant god sits cross-legged, with a crystal-clear body and a majestic appearance.
I don’t know how long it took, but Shen Mu suddenly opened his eyes, and the clear light of his soul resurfaced.
"Finally, I feel again... the fluctuations of the Soul Dao bloodline!"
Shen Mu's previous self had three Soul Dao bloodlines, which made Shen Mu very efficient in the process of comprehending the Soul Dao. .
But this second deity that came to this world unexpectedly, like other life forms in the universe sea, does not have the power of blood.
"Sure enough, it is much different from the Realm Beast King."
Shen Mu felt that it was more reasonable. The Realm Beast King was an absolutely special life.
If the World Beast King can be promoted to the realm of God King, there is no need to comprehend anything at all. The moment he becomes God King, he will be able to understand all the branches of the Avenue of Destruction.
Then you only need to combine these branches into one, and you will directly achieve the ultimate state of the God King.
Of course, the source of this bloodline golden elixir... the mysterious ancient ferocious beast is also extremely powerful. Otherwise, it would be impossible to kill the ancestor of the Liyang family, a peak state, when he was seriously injured and dying. The god king killed.
Even if he becomes a God King for the first time, he is still in his peak state. The two are not the same.
Being able to do this, this ferocious beast is already defying the heavens.
In terms of potential, this ferocious beast is only one level lower than the King of Realm Beasts. His bloodline represents a branch of the soul path, a complete spiritual branch of thinking.
"As expected of a bloodline with the potential of a god king, the affinity of the Soul Avenue is so high."
At this time, Shen Mu only felt as if his soul was being touched by a warm force Packages, thinking becomes clearer than ever before, and operation speed is greatly improved.
The most important thing is that the clarity of perception of the soul avenue is thousands of times higher than before.
Shen Mu closed his eyes and immersed himself in the mystery of the soul.
At this moment, Shen Mu's consciousness seemed to have traveled through time and space and touched the origin of the soul of this world.
Nine branches of the soul path emerged in his mind one by one, each branch containing endless mysteries. They were like bright stars, shining with mysterious light in his mind.
As the years passed, Shen Mu's understanding of the mysteries of the soul became deeper and deeper day by day.
“The spirituality of thinking is the foundation of the soul.”
“Those so-called intelligent beings without souls, such as the machine race, the skeleton race, etc., all have spirituality of thinking.”
< br>
"It's just that their souls are not complete."
In the process of understanding the soul path, Shen Mu faintly discovered the wonderful connection between the soul path and the life path.
Soul and life complement each other. The soul is the core of life, giving it consciousness and perception.
Life is the carrier of the soul, providing the basis for its existence. Even those without intelligence have souls, but they lack the spirituality of thinking.
As his understanding of the spirituality of thinking deepened, Shen Mu also realized that the nine branches of the soul path did not exist in isolation, but were interrelated and influenced each other.
"Hahaha, it seems that my supreme heart calamity can be perfected again!"
Shen Mu suddenly opened his eyes, and the endless soul light around him bloomed, reflecting the phantom of the world.
This is a vast universe, where countless sentient beings are multiplying and developing, creating brilliant civilizations one after another.
Gradually, the phantom of this universe began to expand, becoming more and more illusory in the process of expansion. Until finally, the phantom of the universe completely transformed into an invisible endless light and shadow, covering the entire Liyang City sky.
...
At the same time that Shen Mu caused the strange phenomenon, people from the Chiwu royal family also arrived in the Liyang clan.
In the ancient palace of the Liyang clan, the prince of the Chiwu royal family, who was waiting for the senior officials of the Liyang clan, looked at the sky in shock.
"Is this... that senior in the divine realm, studying some kind of secret technique?"
At this time, a group of elders from the Liyang clan arrived at the ancient palace.
The leader, Li Yang Tiancheng, was wearing a gorgeous robe with a serious face. He bowed slightly to the royal prince: "Li Yang Tiancheng, I have met the fourth prince."
Seeing this, the fourth prince stood up quickly, He turned slightly sideways and received only half a courtesy from the ancient ancestor of the Liyang clan.
"Senior Zhengde has defeated this king. I am here this time to visit the senior who has recently been promoted to the divine realm of the nobles. I also ask senior Tiancheng to introduce him."
Li Yang Tiancheng's heart Suddenly, he knew that the newly promoted divine realm the Fourth Prince was referring to was Shen Mu.
But Shen Mu was not from the Liyang clan, so he did not dare to make any statement on behalf of Shen Mu.
Liyang Tiancheng said with a helpless expression: "Fourth Prince, that... is not from my Liyang clan. He only caused strange phenomena in the world when my Liyang clan was a guest and in retreat."
Four The prince's eyes changed slightly, but his expression did not remain the same: "Oh? He's not from the Liyang clan? Then who is this senior? "
Li Yang Tiancheng shook his head, his eyes were full of awe, and he said slowly: "Fourth Prince, we don't know the specific origin of this senior. We only know that he is a traveler. Coming from a mountain of one hundred thousand, the strength is unfathomable.”
Hearing this, the fourth prince looked startled and fell into silence.
After a while, the fourth prince looked at Liyang Tiancheng again and said slowly: "In that case, I want to meet this senior. I wonder if the Tiancheng clan would recommend him?"
Li Yang Tiancheng looked troubled and said helplessly: "Don't blame the Fourth Prince. This senior is in retreat, and I don't dare to disturb him. Why don't I send someone to notify the Fourth Prince after the senior comes out of seclusion?"
The fourth prince nodded slightly, his expression full of respect. He said slowly: "That's what the clan elder said. When this senior comes out of seclusion, you must notify me as soon as possible."
"You must explain to this senior that our royal family has an incomparable respect for your senior." I admire you, my clan’s venerable people also want to make friends with this senior! "
Liyang Tiancheng laughed and said: "Don't worry, Fourth Prince, I will definitely report the attitude of the royal family to the seniors."
"Then I'll trouble the elders of the Tiancheng clan and the Liyang clan. ”
A moment later, at the east gate of Liyang City, many senior officials of the Liyang clan gathered and watched the fourth prince of the royal family and many of the nine-level imperial guards leave.
......
After returning to the clan, Li Yang Tiancheng immediately summoned the senior leaders of the clan to discuss the matter.
In the ancient palace of the Liyang clan, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn. Everyone sat together, their eyes full of worry.
"Everyone, the fourth prince of the Chiwu Royal Family has already arrived. I think their idea is to invite Venerable Shen to be the Venerable Protector of the Country." Li Yang Tiancheng said solemnly.
"What, Lord Protector!?"
"Is that member of the royal family... going to die?"
"Hush, be silent!"
"Don't make irresponsible remarks, Your Majesty!"
Li Yang Tiancheng frowned slightly, his eyes revealing deep thoughts.
"This matter is no small matter. Venerable Shen is very powerful. If he becomes the protector of the Chiwu Kingdom, it will be both an opportunity and a challenge for me, the Liyang clan."
A worshiper also said : "Yes, the ancient ancestor is right. If Venerable Shen becomes the Venerable Protector of the Country, the status of my Liyang family will inevitably rise. You must know that Venerable Shen still admires Xiao Chenzi very much."
Li Yang Tiancheng nodded: "What you all said makes sense, but this matter still needs to be reported to the Venerable. After the Venerable comes out of seclusion, I will ask the Venerable to make a decision!"
At this time, in the garden, Shen Mu, who was in seclusion, knew nothing about what was happening outside. He is completely immersed in the understanding of the soul path, constantly exploring the mysteries of this world.
……
The ancient courtyard is quiet and peaceful.
The ancient vines are winding and the grass and trees are swaying, as if they are no different from before. However, if you perceive them carefully, you can find that each of these ancient plants and vines has wisdom, which is the spirituality of thinking.
Under the protection of countless plant elves, Shen Mu sat cross-legged with a solemn and peaceful expression, immersed in the spiritual understanding of thinking.
The years pass day by day in this process.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and more than ten years in this world are still relatively long.
During this period of time, Li Yangchen had been in retreat almost all the time, studying the "Origin of Water and Fire" left by Shen Mu day and night, in order to understand a ray of the mystery of the artistic conception.
It’s just that it’s too difficult to skip the law stage and directly comprehend the original avenue.
Even for beings born in the realm of chaos, it is extremely difficult, otherwise the peak of transformation in this realm would not be so rare.
......
On this day, a special wave spread out in the ancient courtyard.
The sound of chanting from the depths of the soul echoed throughout Liyang City and everyone's hearts.
It’s just that this level of understanding is too profound for countless people in Liyang City, so they don’t have any understanding.
"Spiritual thinking... It seems that I still have hope to achieve the realm of the God King with the soul path."
The soul path is far more difficult to understand than the life path.
You must know that during the Universal Sea period, Shen Mu had a very high understanding of the way of life, especially the branch of life spirituality.
For a long time, Shen Mu thought that in the future, he would achieve the realm of God King through the way of life.
A moment later, Shen Mu's figure appeared at the entrance of the courtyard, and everyone from the Liyang clan was already waiting there.
The leader, Li Yang Tiancheng, quickly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for coming out of seclusion."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Everyone from the Liyang clan He quickly congratulated, and then Li Yang Tiancheng bowed slightly to Shen Mu: "There is something that I need to report to Your Majesty."
"But it's okay to talk."
After Shen Mu finished speaking, Li Yang Tiancheng said: "When the Venerable just retreated, the fourth prince of the Chiwu Royal Family came here and wanted to visit the Venerable."
“According to my speculation, the Chiwu royal family should intend to invite Venerable Shen to serve as the Venerable Protector of the Country.”
Shen Mu smiled unexpectedly: “Venerable Protector of the Country, can you still Are foreigners responsible?"
Liyang Tiancheng said quickly: "Sir, our northwest region is barren and there are few powerful people in the divine realm. Therefore, most of the protectors of the country in the northwest countries are not necessarily He is a member of the royal family.”
"That's it."
Shen Mu nodded slightly, and then said: "I'd like to trouble the Tiancheng clan to reply to the Chiwu royal family, just tell me that I still need to think about the matter of the national protector."
< br>"Yes, Your Majesty."
