Chapter 205 Monk from Outland
Lin Changqing picked up the second jade slip and put it on his forehead to read. The content of this jade slip was not very much and he finished reading it in a short time.
The main content inside is a simple map, a list of city names, and some weird contact information.
There are only contact information but no contact person. There are 25 in total. This makes Lin Changqing feel very much like a shady secret organization.
But these are not the point. The point is the names of Fangshi on the list. He has never heard of any of them, and he immediately has a guess in his mind.
So in order to verify this guess, Lin Changqing took the jade map slip given to him by his grandfather and carefully searched and compared it.
I really didn’t find the names of these twenty-five cities on my jade slips, not even one of them was the same. Compared with the simplified map, they didn’t match even more.
The only explanation now is that this monk does not come from any force within the Qingyun Six Sects, and is most likely an outside monk.
This aroused Lin Changqing's great interest. In fact, through the jade map slip given to him by his grandfather, he already knew the geographical environment of the Six Qingyun Sects.
To the northeast, due east, and southeast of the six sects are the endless Qingyun Mountains. This place is the territory of monsters. Among them, there are not a few fifth-order monsters, and there are probably six-order monsters as well.
The south and west are surrounded by endless seas of monsters, and the north is a very vast grassland.
The fifty acres of clover planted in Lin Changliu’s inner space came from the northern grasslands, but that place is no longer within the sphere of influence of the Six Qingyun Sects.
It is ruled by another force, and the one bordering that force is the Tianxing Sword Sect.
Now Lin Changqing is guessing whether this monk comes from the grassland or other more distant areas. How did he get here?
Then he picked up the third jade slip and put it directly against his forehead to read. This jade slip contained more content and answered some of Lin Changqing's questions.
The front part of this jade slip is a record of Zhao Zihong's practice experience, understanding, etc. from the Qi Refining Period to the Purple Mansion Dzogchen.
It also includes some problems encountered and subsequent solutions, which may be of some reference value to Lin Changqing, but this is not the point.
The following part is similar to a self-report. The main content summarized is that the sect to which Zhao Zihong belongs, the Black Soul Sect, is one of the top sects in Qixuan Continent.
In the sect, there is a True Master of Transformation God, dozens of True Lords of Nascent Soul, and countless True Masters of Jindan.
The territory ruled by the forces is extremely vast, but because of their martial arts, they have always regarded the mortals under their rule as cattle and sheep, and the souls of monks from other sects as resources for cultivation.
The situation changed because a Jindan Daoist from the Black Soul Sect refined the great-great-grandson of a God-Transforming Supreme from the Hunyuan Sect into soul liquid. This eventually became the last straw for the destruction of the Black Soul Sect.
This triggered the joint siege of the Black Soul Sect by various factions in Qixuan Continent, which eventually led to the destruction of the Black Soul Sect, and all the Black Soul Sect's techniques were banned, and some were even destroyed on the spot.
From the top power to a street rat, his disciples were vigorously pursued by various factions. The trees fell down and the hozens scattered, and the disciples of the Black Soul Sect fled in all directions.
Some simply changed their skills and changed their appearance, some never left, and some even found ways to escape to other continents.
This Zhao Zihong was being chased. By chance, he entered a dangerous place to hide and found a huge magic circle in a secret place.
Zhao Zihong recognized that this was a long-distance teleportation array. He had an idea and installed the high-grade spiritual stone without much thought, then directly activated the teleportation and left, intending to use this long-distance teleportation array to get rid of the enemy's pursuit.
Unexpectedly, this teleportation would basically kill him, because this huge magic circle is a teleportation array, but it is a cross-continental ultra-long-distance teleportation array. Zhao Zihong does not have any special long-distance teleportation at all. Token protection.
He suffered space squeeze damage during the teleportation process, and the two defensive magic weapons on his body were also damaged during the teleportation process, otherwise he would not have been able to survive until the teleportation was over. But after arriving here, he was already seriously injured, and it was a rare spatial attribute injury. He had consumed all the elixirs on his body to treat internal and external injuries, but there was no improvement.
In the end, he could only be unwilling to accept it and left a rough record. Soon after, the injury completely broke out and he sat next to the cross-continental teleportation array.
This was probably the content in the jade slip. As for what the black piece of wood was, there was no record at all, which made Lin Changqing a little disappointed.
Maybe this is also his secret. Like Lin Changqing's secret, it will not be recorded in any form.
In fact, after looking at the contents of this storage bracelet, Lin Changqing himself had already made a bold guess.
That Zhao Zihong has obviously been here for a long time. From the fact that all the elixirs in the jade box have rotted and the elixirs have turned into dregs, it can be inferred that he has been dead for a long time.
Theoretically, the soul should return to reincarnation, but the black light just now, although it did not speak, made several screams, proving that it was the soul of a monk.
Therefore, the most likely possibility is that the black light is Zhao Zihong's soul, and that piece of black wood can protect Zhao Zihong's soul from dying, and can also penetrate Lin Changqing's seven layers of defense.
It proves that the black wood has the effect of nourishing and protecting the soul. It is very likely that it is the soul-nurturing tree, one of the three famous sacred trees in the world of immortality.
The colors seem to match, but they look quite thin, just a little thicker than chopsticks.
Thinking of this, Lin Changqing couldn't wait, but just in case, he still didn't touch the black wood himself.
Instead, an amethyst scorpion was released from the spirit beast bracelet, asking it to go over and pick up the black wood first.
After a while, after seeing that the Amethyst Scorpion was still alive and kicking, Lin Changqing was ready to take the piece of black wood and study it.
Suddenly he thought that this thing had been worn by others and had been hung on the corpse for so long. Lin Changqing couldn't help but used the water polo technique many times. After washing it seven or eight times in total, he felt Clean.
Hold it in your hand and look at it carefully. It was dark and heavy overall. Then you carefully brought it to your nose and smelled it. Fortunately, there was no smell.
The length is only about two inches, slightly thicker than chopsticks, and it is tied with a piece of translucent silk.
To be honest, I didn’t feel anything special when I held it in my hand, so Lin Changqing decided to try it on his neck.
He did it as he thought. After putting it on personally, Lin Changqing found a clean place to sit and concentrated on feeling it carefully. Sure enough, there was an extremely weak purple energy that spread to the sea of consciousness and was absorbed by the soul.
It’s just that this energy is too weak. If you don’t observe it carefully, you might just ignore it.
However, although it is extremely weak, it is a continuous victory. There may be no change in one or two months, but in three or five years, it will definitely add up to a lot. It can be regarded as moisturizing things silently. , and the soul became stronger without realizing it.
But this is not what Lin Changqing thought of. The elixir of a powerful soul. Lin Changqing has the Earth Soul Fruit, but he is not very interested in it. Lin Changqing has already thought about the use of this black wood.
It is to wear it for newborn children at home, slowly nourishing and strengthening their souls, so that if they have spiritual roots to practice in the future, they will be one step ahead of others.
But before you have children, just keep this thing with you. Maybe over time, you can discover other secrets of this black wood.
And even now, Lin Changqing is not sure that this section of black wood is the soul-nurturing wood, but it doesn't matter, anyway, the thing is already in hand, and there will always be time to figure it out in the future.
