Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 303: Law-level magical power

Zhao Changhe let go of the worry in his throat.

I was also worried that when she asked if she wanted to see the coffin, she meant to ask if I should find a coffin for you to lie in and die... It seems that being a charming and domineering woman does have its advantages. She wouldn't make a fuss about such a small matter like a little girl. Let's focus on business.

But in fact, he could see everything behind him.

So big and so white.

If she knew about this, she would really make a coffin for you to lie in and die.

Zhao Changhe pretended to know nothing, took a step closer and leaned over to look at the coffin.

The coffin was made of jade, and it was closed so it was hard to tell if there was a body inside. The breath was also blocked by the jade, so it was basically impossible to sense anything. But Sanniang was so sure about what she said that the person inside was already dead... Most likely her consciousness could sense the breath inside, so it was easy for her to judge whether the person was dead or not.

But Sanniang sighed: "He may have made many preparations, including geographical migration, and Beimang even changed its location, but in the end he still couldn't escape death."

Zhao Changhe realized that this might be a blow to the Four Symbols Sect's faith. In a sense, the god they worshipped was the one lying in the coffin, at least one of them, but he was already dead.

The gods you believe in are dead, so isn’t that a bit… emmmm…

But then again, the four ancient elephants were subordinates of the Night Emperor, and the death of the four elephants did not mean that the Night Emperor was dead, and the faith was not completely destroyed. Anyway, Sanniang and the others were now the four elephants themselves, so if the original four elephants died, they died, and it would be troublesome if they didn't die...

But seeing Sanniang's expression, she still looked a little depressed. Zhao Changhe didn't know how to comfort her, so he just said, "You don't plan to open the coffin, right?"

Sanniang hesitated for a moment and said, "It still has to be opened..."

Zhao Changhe hurriedly advised: "Who knows what kind of restrictions we will encounter after opening the coffin? I suggest you bring the coffin back to your Four Symbols Sect headquarters and study it slowly with everyone's efforts. Archaeological excavations take decades, so don't be so impatient."

Sanniang said, "I don't plan to open it now, do you really think I'm that reckless?"

Zhao Changhe glanced at her sideways: "I can't tell, who is the one who just triggered the restriction and hit the spring with a sword? "

"Because this is the sword I want." Sanniang said unhappily, "How can I get this sword if I don't change the restriction?"

Zhao Changhe: "I thought it was for Chi Chi..."

Sanniang's eyebrows were raised.

I went through life and death, and you just want to give it to your little lover? Am I a tool

Zhao Changhe took a half step back and raised his hands to protect his face.

Looking through the cover of his arm, Sanniang was completely wrapped in his large coat, with only the tips of her hands sticking out of her sleeves. Her face was puffed up, and she looked inexplicably cute, just like Yangyang...

Sanniang gritted her teeth, thinking that she would need his help this time, so she couldn't turn hostile, so she had to force a smile: "This sword is neither for Chi Chi nor for myself... Chi Chi has Bingpo in his hand, which is no worse than this sword. This is a treasure that is deeply related to the sect and is collected as the sect's heritage. Regardless of whether Chi Chi can become the leader in the future, at least he can become a White Tiger Venerable. Then our Azure Dragon Venerable will be vacant, and we can choose the best one in the sect to inherit it. In the future, this sword will be his."

That's true. A huge sect must have all kinds of treasures, not to mention something that is so clearly related to the sect's heritage.

Sanniang said that she was just letting it go, but in fact, she was thinking about the sect all the time, whether it was making money or treasures, she should be credited with the greatest contribution. With these women working so hard for the sect, it's no wonder that the Four Symbols Sect has developed so well over the years.

Zhao Changhe tried to say, "I think Miss Winged Fire Snake is pretty good. Dragons and snakes are similar. How about letting her try to inherit the Azure Dragon?"

Sanniang looked at him strangely, and after a while she said, "You have to tell Zhuque about this. The Winged Fire Snake is directly under Zhuque... If you want to bring it up, it has to be Zhuque who should formally propose the test at the sect's high-level meeting."

"The so-called high-level officials are you and Suzaku..."

"Now, there is actually Chi Chi." Sanniang said with a smile: "Are you sure Chi Chi will speak for your other woman?"

Zhao Changhe's face turned green, and he quickly changed the subject: "Suzaku wouldn't bring up such a thing for no reason, can you help hold a small office meeting to bring it up..."

"I said? He said that because Zhao Changhe likes Winged Fire Snake very much, he strongly recommends that Winged Fire Snake take the position?" Sanniang smiled again: "Are you sure? Do you want Zhuque to chop off Winged Fire Snake, or do you want Chi Chi to chop off you?"

"Can't you find another reason? For example, her position is more important, or her cultivation is stronger..."

"Hee..." Seeing Zhao Changhe seriously considering how to support Winged Fire Snake, Sanniang almost burst out laughing: "Okay, okay, I'll help you talk."

Zhao Changhe smiled apologetically: "Sanniang is the best."

Sanniang smiled and said, "Speaking of which, if I ask you to be the Azure Dragon Venerable, will you do it?"

It was a joke, but there was some truth in it. This guy didn't want to join the church because he didn't want to be inferior to others. If he was allowed to be on an equal footing, he might be happy. Besides, Chi Chi was his lover, and if he was given one of the two jobs, Chi Chi would probably have no objection and would be quite happy.

The only problem is that the Four Symbols cannot be handed over casually. Chi Chi inherited the Azure Dragon Seal. If someone else wants to take over this position, they must at least have a reasonable explanation... At least they have to convince Suzaku.

Zhao Changhe pointed at his nose and said, "Let me be the Azure Dragon? Is there a penny between me and the Azure Dragon? If you want to say that my second brother is closer in form..."

Sanniang frowned.

Zhao Changhe shut up.

"It's another matter what attribute the Azure Dragon corresponds to in the celestial phenomena, but in the human world, it is generally the proof of the emperor of man. As for you..." Sanniang looked at Zhao Changhe for a moment, and suddenly said, "Come here."

Zhao Changhe followed Sanniang in confusion and went around to the end of the coffin. There were some carved patterns on it, but he couldn't make out what they were.

In fact, the entire coffin is carved with such patterns. If you don’t know the inside story, you will just think it is an ordinary pattern.

Sanniang said, "These patterns have a history. They are a spell that makes plants grow and life immortal. This person uses this as a restriction to protect the coffin and nourish the body inside, hoping that he can wake up one day. At present, it seems that the dead cannot be resurrected, and the spell restriction is carved in vain, but it does not mean that the spell itself is useless. You try it and see if you can understand it?"

Zhao Changhe was speechless and said, "These patterns are too abstract. They don't even have a concrete image. What can we understand? Can you give me some hints?"

Sanniang crossed her arms and said, "It's to see if you and my sect are really meant to be. If you learn this, you can resist the backlash of your own blood evil, heal your own hidden injuries, increase your lifespan, and glimpse immortality. And as a healing technique, it will be more effective if it is integrated into your dual cultivation technique. And if you want to heal a man, you can't practice dual cultivation. It's better to have more skills than less. It's up to you whether you want to learn it or not."

Let's not talk about whether to heal the man or not. Just the fact that it can prolong his life is something that everyone would be interested in. Besides, according to this statement, I wonder if it will be useful to Tang Wanzhuang

Zhao Changhe couldn't understand such abstract patterns, but he had a trick.

So he pretended to be caressing and thinking, and gently stroked the pattern with his hand.

His mind connected with the gold foil in his arms, and he soon saw the VR scene with a few large characters on it: "Rejuvenation Secret. When spring comes back to the earth, the grass and trees grow, and all things come back to life. The wood of the five elements is the proof of the Azure Dragon of the East. It belongs to the category of magical powers at the fundamental level of the world, and you are not qualified to learn it. Just learn the basics, but forcing yourself to comprehend it may hurt your foundation. You should learn the three secrets first."

Zhao Changhe: “…”

The name is so earthy, Rejuvenation Secret, it's just like the common stuff on the street.

Then tell you that this is the law!

Then I tell you, you are too bad to learn...

The pattern below was not translated into words for you to see, but an extremely mysterious translation of consciousness that passed through your mind. It was as if you knew something, but you couldn't capture it. When you tried to capture it forcefully, you immediately felt a tearing pain in your forehead.

Zhao Changhe took a half step back, sweating profusely, and gasping heavily.

Sanniang immediately supported him and asked in surprise, "What happened?"

"Well... it's a rejuvenation formula... This is the first time in this world that I've seen the concept of 'spells' and 'incantations'..." Zhao Changhe pinched his head uncomfortably: "But I can't learn it... Well, maybe I can learn a little bit?"

Sanniang widened her eyes in shock.

Can you really do that

This is obviously something that requires a sect to comprehend and ponder for ten years, and is much more difficult to decipher than archaeological work. Sanniang's original expectation was that he could adapt to it and say, "I have a vague feeling about it, and it takes a long time to explore." This would be very good, almost the same as her, Sanniang!

And you just touched it twice and told me that you have learned the basics

Sanniang didn't believe it, so she lifted up her wide sleeves to reveal the tiny wound caused by the ancient sword's sword energy. "Don't brag. If you have some experience, you can heal this little wound. Want to try?"

Zhao Changhe hesitated and said, "This can't be tested remotely..."

Sanniang stared at him straight in the eyes: "It's just a couple of touches, what's the big deal? Just do it and don't make excuses."

"... I've never heard of such a request." Zhao Changhe sighed and touched it.

The tentacles are delicate, warm and soft... Uh, what am I thinking about...

What we should think about is how to use such spells.

Can the Qi be compatible with "magic"? Do I need to learn some Taoist scriptures from Taiyi Sect

Zhao Changhe tried to call upon the true energy of the Liuhe Divine Art in his body and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was effective.

The universality and convertibility of Liuhe Divine Art are once again demonstrated here. Not only can it be converted into the blood evil energy required for the Blood Evil Art, it can also be converted into a property similar to "mana", and it is of wood attribute.

Sanniang only felt a rough big hand touching her arm. When her cheeks turned red and she was about to get angry, she felt a sudden tingling sensation in the wound.

It's not itchy from being touched, it's a characteristic of wound healing!

He can really heal this level of minor injuries! He really has learned the basics of the Rejuvenation Technique!

Sanniang even forgot to withdraw her hand and let him continue to touch her endlessly. Self-doubt kept echoing in her mind - does he really have nothing to do with Ye Di
