The ancestor of all monsters in Shushan

Chapter 67 Changing human form
Shi Feiyang always remembered that the Golden Seal Talisman was his foundation, so he never slackened his practice, combining it with the talisman carvings on the Heavenly Book and Jade Box, the numerology he had learned in the past, the changes in the star map on the Dongling Zheng, etc. , working hard to understand every day.

On this day, he was practicing in seclusion in the spherical cave. He had been deducing continuously for less than half a month, and suddenly he remembered the difference between this cave and the one on Wuding Island.

The spherical practice cave on Wuding Island is built on land. A high platform is raised below to serve as the Wolong Stone. The top is the center of the ball.

This time it is at the bottom of the sea, which is filled with sea water. There is no high platform, just a complete circular space. He is suspended in the center of the sphere, with the dragon body twisting and turning, as if in space, imitating the rotation of the earth to watch the movement of the surrounding celestial sphere.

Suddenly he remembered: "The number of heavenly changes is thirty-six, the number of earthly changes is seventy-two, the path of heaven is running, and it travels ten times to surpass the number of stars in the sky. The laws of earth are in the sky. The path of heaven is born and the path of earth is formed. The energy of earth It changes every five days..." Here are a few words!

There are thirty-six changes in the sky, one change in the tenth degree of the patrol, and three hundred and sixty celestial talismans. The ten changes are one change. The specific change is unknown.

The number of earth changes is seventy-two, which changes every five days. The five talismans correspond to the celestial talismans. The five talismans are abstract changes from the celestial star chart and represent the way of heaven. They are not the direct manifestation of the changes of the earth, but they are the expression of the earth. The source of change…

Five days and one hour, seventy-two hours, seventy-two changes!

Suddenly, a lot of things clicked into place.

With a thought in his mind, the elixir energy around his body surged, and his body changed rapidly. Almost instantly, the black dragon that was dozens of feet long turned into a human boy.

He looked at his white hands and feet floating in the water, and then touched his hair flying in the water.

Now he is in a state of holding his breath, and he is choking on water when he opens his mouth to breathe.

He made a hand with his hands and cast a spell to drain the water away. In an instant, all the water in the spherical cave was drained away, and there was not even a trace of moisture.

With his bare feet on the rocky ground, he opened his mouth and blew out a burst of alchemy energy, forming a clear light in front of him. His image appeared in the clear light, as if it were a mirror, except that the figure inside was three-dimensional.

This is what I looked like before time travel!
Shi Feiyang was happy in his heart. With a thought, he quickly transformed into a black dragon that was tens of feet long. Then he thought again and returned to the human body of a young man.

It turns out to be like this!
This is not a normal way for aliens to cultivate human bodies in the Shushan world, but in other traditional myths, fairies can transform into human beings by cultivating their magic power.

This is... the seventy-two transformations of Earthly Evil!
He concentrated on looking inside and knew that he could only turn into the human form before he traveled through time, and could not turn into the appearance of other people. It was even more incomprehensible to the analogy in "Journey to the West" where the Great Sage could turn into any human, animal, fish, bird, or even grass, trees, earth and stone. Everything changes as you please, but the essence is the same.

"The Taoist body of ape matches the human heart, and the heart is an ape, which means a lot."

He thought of this famous line in "Journey to the West", and he also longed for the day in the future that he could be like Sun Wukong, who could change at will. If he could really do this, it would be a dimensionality reduction blow in this Shushan world, and he could really avoid three disasters and five disasters. It’s difficult, if I can just turn into a pebble or a weed, how can those enemies find me?
"It's just that I don't know if I will be seen as evil now? I should give it a try. Besides, now that I have a human body, I can go to Middle-earth and dig for many treasures. "

His understanding of the Golden Seal Talisman has taken another step forward. Although it is only one step, there has been a qualitative change. He took out the Jade Box of the Heavenly Book and cast a spell to open it. He actually opened the next two layers effortlessly!
The second layer of the jade box contains six elixirs and a jade ruler. The medicine is the soul-gathering elixir, which was made by the ancient golden immortal Guangchengzi. The third layer of the jade box contains the real heavenly book. Shi Feiyang sat cross-legged on the ground and fiddled with these things. He read the heavenly book first. After opening it, he found that it was full of ancient tadpole writing, and he couldn't understand a word of it.

Guangchengzi's Alchemy Sutra is divided into three parts, each with its own emphasis. The first volume is in Linghun's hands, focusing on the great road, with nine-character mantras and annotations.

The middle volume was in the hands of the two elders of Songshan, who taught the exercises. The two elders didn't know it and couldn't practice it. Later, Master Changmei took it and understood about half of the content and taught it to them. It can't be used as the main exercise, it can only be done. Just a reference.

The second volume focuses on various applied spells, alchemy and treasure refining, formations and talismans, etc. Unfortunately, there are very few people in Shushan who can understand this kind of tadpole writing.

Shi Feiyang became more determined to refuse to admit defeat and speculated that these three Tianshu Alchemy Sutras were left by Guangchengzi, but the annotations in the first volume should have been written by Huangdi. The so-called annotations were just a translation of Guangchengzi's Tadpole into thousands. Even if I take out the writings from the Yellow Emperor's period years ago, I still don't recognize them.

However, the pictograms of Chinese characters have important meanings, and the phonetic pronunciation is only incidental. It is because of this part that I agree to read it this way, rather than filling in this part of the radical specifically for the purpose of reading this sound. Since it expresses meaning, it can be conveyed intentionally, and there is the possibility of communication between ancestors and descendants.

He tried to disassemble the tadpole script according to the golden seal and sky talismans, and sure enough, he quickly saw some clues.

There are many kinds of tadpole essays in the world, and each kind of tadpole essays may have similarities with each other or may be totally different from each other.

Shi Feiyang figured out that the logic of tadpole writing used by Guangchengzi was nothing more than the Chinese origin, yin and yang, the five elements, and the stars in the sky. Each stroke that makes up a character is in the shape of a tadpole, and each tadpole is related to the stars. , that golden seal talisman is a condensation of the stars. After comparing it twice, more than 20 words were quickly deciphered.

The Yellow Emperor was very eager to learn, and he often asked his subordinates who were majoring in certain professions. There were many teachers in the broad sense, but there were two main masters in the true sense. One was the Nine Heavens Xuannv, who taught the Yellow Emperor the magic number of heaven. The famous ones are the three styles: Taiyi governs heaven and accounts for national fortunes, Liuren governs personnel and affairs, and Dunjia governs land and military affairs. Huang Di defeated Chi You thanks to the power of Qi Men Dun Jia.

Another teacher was Guangchengzi. Huangdi went to Kongtong Mountain many times to ask Guangchengzi for advice. Guangchengzi taught him the art of self-cultivation and governing the country. At that time, Guangchengzi was already more than 1,200 years old, and he was also trained by people.

The source of Chinese civilization is Nuwa and Fuxi. The essence of Chinese civilization is the great road.

Whether it is Huangdi or Guangchengzi, their roots are here.

Shi Feiyang put all the knowledge he had together in his brain, outlined the contract, studied the essence, and then went back to use the golden seal and sky talisman to decipher the tadpole script. Although it was very difficult and obscure, and there were mistakes in the first interpretation, later on After discovering contradictions, we will overturn and start again, but in the end the path is correct.

He practiced hard in seclusion in the cave for several months and deciphered about one-third of the Tadpole script. Many sentences could barely be understood. The true colors of the scriptures also emerged in front of him more and more. Which ones were from ancient times? Among the spells of the period, which ones are elixirs for refining medicine, which ones are formations...

The Nine-Heaven Yuanyang Ruler originally required the scrolled Nine-Character Mantra to be used, otherwise it would be useless to hold it in your hand. However, the Nine-Character Mantra was left by the Yellow Emperor for the convenience of future generations. Shi Feiyang directly found the Jiutian Jiutian. Although he still didn’t recognize most of the words in the chapter of Yuanyang Ruler, he was able to figure out its meaning. Through repeated trials and sacrifices, he was not only able to use the treasure ruler, but also deepened his understanding of the scriptures!
