Chapter 772 Alchemy

"Oh, of course, I will be more careful to ensure that I will not cause any damage to Cuiyulu."

After speaking, Fan Lin looked at the unwilling goblin quietly. The Cuiyu Record was placed in front of him and he was forbidden to watch it. Now it was like a joke.

But there are some other problems.

This damn goblin didn't remove the defensive magic at all. Through his magic eyes, Fan Lin could clearly capture the threads that entangled the entire space, intertwined like a woven spider web.

"Of course." Purgner said unwillingly. He pressed his hand on the wall next to him, and Fan Lin could clearly feel the fading power.

This goblin did it on purpose. If he went in rashly, he would definitely encounter some unexpected magic.

Fan Lin walked in cautiously, and then checked the surroundings first, so he was ridiculed by the goblin.

However, Fan Lin didn't take it seriously. If he was really tricked by this goblin, then there would be a big problem. Moreover, he had already been tricked, otherwise Fan Lin would have been tricked on the second day after arriving in Egypt. You should see the entire content of Cuiyulu.

But now it can be considered that I got my wish.

Legend has it that alchemy originated in Egypt.

In 1900 BC, the Egyptian pharaoh Hermes, his legendary father, the god Thoth, and Hermes' eldest son, the high priest Tat, merged into one and became the legendary " Hermes God". This trinity of gods condensed the knowledge of alchemy into a sentence, carved it on an emerald slab, and passed it down to the world.

People call this text "Cuiyulu". (Emerald Tablet, or Smaragdine Table).

In the Middle Ages, alchemists would have a copy of the Jade Book hanging in their workshops; it was the final guidance they needed. For Hermetic philosophy, it is like the Chinese Tao Te Ching to Taoism and alchemy. Alchemy packages itself as a set of practical techniques, perhaps in order to allow this set of ideas to be passed down, so that true philosophers can see through the surface illusion, apply the description of "things" to "heart", and obtain the knowledge hidden behind it. spiritual teachings.

Philosophy and the like are obviously not suitable for wizards, but for wizards, the magic stone is the hard truth. In the eyes of most people, the secret of Jade Record is the secret of the magic stone.

However, this is not the case where Fanlin got it from Nicoléme. The Philosopher's Stone is only a part of it, just like alchemy is only a part of the Book of Abraham.

What Fanlin wants to get is another answer, an answer that is the same or different from the Book of Abraham.

To be honest, this book is too old. Just like the Book of Abraham, the symbols of each paragraph have to be re-identified. But by studying the Book of Abraham, Fanlin understood a truth.

Whether it is words or carvings, their role is to convey, or convey spirit, or convey knowledge, and most of them are to preserve magic power.

This includes many things, such as spirit, perception, emotional changes, the magnitude of magic power, and a series of things that cannot be described by words. This is also a symbol...

But now, he is not watching the Cuiyu Record. He knows those words and the content of the Cuiyu Record. The process to be completed now is to understand the magic and use the greatness of one period to communicate the legend of another.

Fanlin silently recited the opening chapter of the Book of Abraham. He needed to build a bridge so that the essence of the Jade Record could be completely preserved.

With the recollection of the spell, the surface of Cuiyulu began to change strangely. A ray of emerald green light connected Fan Lin's eyebrows. It seemed like a bridge was built between the two. As time went by, Cuiyulu, which had been sealed in dust for endless time, also began to take action.

More and more light enveloped Fanlin's body.

Gradually, Fanlin entered a strange state, which was like a passing process. Although this feeling was cold, it was not unfamiliar.

As the communication gradually deepened, the original symbols on the Jade Record turned into imprints one after another that appeared in Fan Lin's mind.

These things merge into a sound that sounds...

"The truth is true, never lie, it will inevitably bring truth." The deep voice slowly narrated, "The bottom is like the top, and the top is like the bottom; in this way, the miracle of Taiyi will be fulfilled."

"All things are originally One, and are created from One through differentiation."

Here we are talking about the issue of origin. The big universe of ideas, universe, and nature has an integrated, harmonious, and reflective relationship with the small universe of individuals, minds, and souls. Using the alchemical transformation process to liberate spirituality from matter is both important. By creating matter and reshaping the mind, we will be able to reproduce the miracle created by the Oneness of the Universe, which is the Tao, and “all that is”.

To put it simply, this is the very beginning, which consists of gestation and fusion, as well as the object and itself. If placed in the alchemy process, should this section be called the handling and processing of materials?

Fan Lin shook his head. His thoughts seemed a bit too simple, but over-explanation was not a good thing.

Speaking of which, Fan Lin remembered that voice. His voice was like this. He was talking to himself. This was really a strange phenomenon.

"The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind and nurtured by the earth." Fan Lin's deep voice came to mind again. Through magic, Cuiyulu transformed everything into a way that Fan Lin could understand.

"Here is the source of all perfection in the world; its power is most perfect on earth."

Fan Lin also roughly understood the explanation of this paragraph. In terms of alchemy, the sun is the father and the moon is the mother...that is, everything has reference and correspondence, and is constantly blended and supplemented, and then reaches the perfection that cognition can achieve. .

This is difficult, perfect. Until now, Fanlin has never seen perfection.

"Separate earth from fire, extract essence from roughness, and do it with caution."

“Ascended from the earth to heaven, and descended from heaven, acquiring the power above and below.”

"In this way you can gain the glory of the world and escape darkness and ignorance."

What this means here is that before pursuing the above-mentioned combination of yin and yang, one must distinguish between material and spiritual things, and between spiritual calling and material desires, in order to reflect the brilliance of the true self. When a person transcends the opposition between yin and yang, self and mind, and seeks immortal spirituality, he will awaken from the reality of existence, gain enlightenment wisdom, and find light. Back to real life, everything is clear.

The principle of different paths leading to the same goal, the duality of everything, lies in how the alchemist treats me.

"This is the power of ten thousand forces, which can destroy the strong and tough."

"This is how the world was created, and miracles can be achieved by this."

"I am called the Triple Great Hermes, for I possess the wisdom of the three parts of the world."

"That's what I call a great job."

As for this paragraph, Fanlin is more inclined to interpret it as Hermes himself bragging about Bilibili... (To be continued)
