Chapter 1643 Golden Library
"The sun and the moon with a human face."
Lin Nian walked along the green and ghostly road to the end, and stood in front of the stone door. Looking at the statues of the human-faced sun and the human-faced moon on the left and right, he realized that this was probably the same as the entrance to the Bronze City that was imprisoned by flames. The bronze human face is a living thing, and there is probably a painful soul trapped inside. After being refined through alchemy, it will guard this door forever.
Throughout today's Spanish American colonies, sun worship in primitive religions is still preserved. Among them, the human-faced sun is the clearest symbol. What is interesting is that this symbol has also been excavated all over the world, including ancient Egypt and ancient Greece. , ancient Maya, ancient India, it seems that there will always be such a similar "totem" in different places at different times.
It's interesting, but Lin Nian doesn't like alchemy very much. Even though he got full marks in the alchemy biology course, he instinctively rejects knowledge that is like human surgery based on physically transforming the spirit and soul, so he starts from There is no deep understanding of the meaning of that knowledge.
The upper limit of the second burst of blood was crossed, and the power of the third burst of blood and Baqi's domain swept across the entire long road like a storm. Behind, Yelena watched leisurely as Lin Nian raised his dragon scales and flesh-filled right arm. He compressed the explosive power into bits and blasted it on the stone gate in one breath!
There was a deafening roar, but not a bit of dust was raised, because this passage was spotless. All the power was soaked into the door. The scaly fist was imprinted on the human-faced sun, and the statue under the fist was raised. His smile remained unchanged, and the entire stone door did not move at all.
But a few seconds later, there was a buzzing sound. It was the groan of the entire mountain. The mountain shook slightly, and then there was no sound again.
Lin Nian put away his fists and looked up at the surrounding mountains. He understood what happened at that moment.
The power he punched was transmitted to every corner of the mountain through mysterious channels. Every particle of dust, every stone, and every vine buried in the soil evenly shared the power of the mountain. A force, and the stone gate is a conceptual dispersion passage.
"Alchemy has never been proud of the hard and precious substances it has refined. According to legend, the medieval chemical philosophy has always been about converting base metals into precious metals. Ordinary people who do not understand the secrets of alchemy, It’s natural to think that those who pursue the secrets of alchemy just want to get rich by making gold, but that’s not the case.”
Elena stood behind Lin Nian with her hands behind her back and said,
"The true pursuit of alchemy is always the means to find and master the basic rules of the world. Through the integration of hieroglyphic symbol systems, philosophical thoughts, religious theories, mysticism, etc. into alchemy, the purpose is not just to change gold. The transformation of base metals into precious metals is but the most superficial achievement to prove that the theory of the universe can be shaken by the occult."
"Human beings have spent thousands of years to complete the act of launching rockets and landing on the moon. There are so many knowledge systems, physics, chemistry, mathematics, humanities, too much, too much accumulation and hard work. But for alchemy , they only need to find a concept, such as the moon in the mirror, the concept of virtuality and reality, and then find a way to blur it. They only need to complete a complex and precise alchemical matrix to reach the moon thousands of miles away through the mirror. ”
"Do we have to act in accordance with the 'rules' changed by alchemy in order to break through the obstacles it sets up?" Lin Nian understood the meaning of Yelena's tirade.
If alchemy can really blur the concept of reality and reality through the matrix, so as to complete the great feat of taking the earth to the moon in one step, then the power contained in it cannot be broken through by simple brute force. It already involves the so-called theory of the universe. You cannot use violence to break the underlying rules, because violence is also a product written in the rules.
"Unless your violence threshold can exceed the delimited range of the rules, such as the punch just now, if the input power is enough to blow up this mountain, then even if the alchemy matrix on this door disperses your power everywhere, it will still be It can’t stop you from blasting it away.”
"But even if it is blasted away, the entire mountain will be buried with it. The end result will be that the mountain collapses and everything behind the door will be burned, right?" Lin Nian asked after thinking.
"Clever!" Elena grinned. "After all, this is the access control matrix system that I participated in the design of. I happen to be an expert in violently opening doors, so naturally I made some targeted systems."
"What's behind the door?"
"Didn't you know it when you opened the door?"
Lin Nian turned to look at Elena, saying nothing, just looking at her with no expression on his face.
"Some dragons compare the sun to Taiyi in the Jade Record. Although they know that Taiyi is amorphous, abstract, and a spirit and concept, to implement it in the refinement of the material world, Taiyi always needs As a physical object to put my trust in, the sun is perfect.”
Elena sighed, walked to Lin Nian's side in front of the door, and bit her finger. There was bright red blood on the white thumb pad, which really shocked Lin Nian.
But soon he found Elena staring at him, "Why are you standing there, wipe it off."
Only then did Lin Nian realize that his thumb had split open at some point, and the shape was exactly the same as Elena's.
"If Taiyi is compared to the sun, which has a material existence, then the spiritual part is naturally placed on the opposite side, Taiyin, just like the sun projects its own brilliance to the moon, and uses the moon as a carrier to reflect the moonlight to the earth. The symbols of spirit and matter need to be satisfied at the same time."
Lin Nian painted the red from his thumb on the corner of the mouth of the human-faced sun statue, making the smile more bright red, while Yelena, who symbolizes the spiritual body, scraped the red on her thumb, which was between existence and non-existence, on the corner of the mouth of the human-faced moon. However, the red did not appear, but the smile of the human-faced moon was indeed much brighter.
"In contrast, the opposite side of Taiyi was simulated as the moon, so that it could achieve what was said in the Jade Record, 'You will gain the most outstanding glory in the world, and all darkness will dissipate from you.' It satisfies a process from resurrection to death and then resurrection."
Above the gate, the zigzag pattern symbolizing light around the human-faced sun began to rotate and rolled towards the middle of the two doors. The human-faced moon on the side also showed the same movement until the statues of the sun and the moon overlapped together, forming a half sun face and a half moon face.
The sound of gears running was heard behind the gate, and the sound stopped after a long time. The human-faced sun and moon that merged into one looked at Lin Nian with the only remaining eye. The cracked smile seemed to imply a welcome home. The left side of the tightly closed stone door opened slightly inward with a muffled sound, revealing a small gap.
Lin Nian raised his hand and pressed on the door. With a little force, the door was pushed open. The sound of the stone door rubbing against the ground continued to echo, enough to prove that there was a huge, empty space behind the door.
He walked in, it was pitch black, pitch black, without a single light source. He was about to light up his golden pupil for night vision, but Yelena stopped him and walked forward, "Be careful not to flash your eyes."
In the darkness, the blonde girl in white walked barefoot in the dark and empty space. The absolute silence made her footsteps so clear that you could hear the subtle patter of the thin flesh on the soles of her feet touching the ground. Until a certain moment, she stopped.
Just like the chanting of a hymn, a beam of sunlight fell from the sky and pierced through the dark space, shining on the huge alchemical matrix in the center that covered the entire ground. In the center of the light source, Lin Nian saw the blonde girl in white kneeling on the ground devoutly, with her hands crossed, fisted and bowed, a smile on her lips, chanting the ancient and beautiful hymn.
In the dark corner, Lin Nian's face was completely illuminated. He looked down at the ground and could actually see his clear reflection - the ground of the entire huge space was red gold, smooth and flat like a mirror. It was hard to describe what he saw. The barriers of the space were all transparent gold, and the ubiquitous golden mirror surface constantly echoed everything in the space that was dyed with gold.
The hymn echoed in the space. Even though Yelena's singing was not loud, the hymn caused a roar that resounded through the world.
It was obvious that this was an alchemical matrix at work, or the terrain of this place itself was in line with a matrix, which reshaped the space and sound effects of the cave, causing the sound to produce specific echoes and resonances inside the space. This acoustic environment allowed the sound to spread farther and clearer, thus forming an outward-emitting word spirit.
The alchemical matrix that occupied the entire space under her feet was activated under the influence of the domain. The sunlight shining directly from the top of her head provided the original light source. Countless light particles of light of light rose from the ground to bring more light. Countless spiral bookshelves hidden in the darkness finally revealed their true appearance after thousands of years. The murals cast in gold on the inner wall of the mountain were revealed. The complex carvings described the epic and bloody scenes of the tragic war. The dragons fought each other, the flames burned the earth, and the sky and clouds were torn apart, revealing the dark universe.
The entire space turned out to be a completely hollowed-out mountain. The tall mountain seen in the outside world turned out to be a completely hollowed-out skin, and the huge space inside was re-cast and overwritten with a huge amount of gold!
Countless towering bookshelves formed a circular structure on the ground. There was a certain distance between the outer ring and the inner ring, forming a passable road. Looking up, one could hardly see the end of the bookshelves. Wild vines grew from the wood of the bookshelves that were almost as high as the mountain, and green branches fell from the heights like a rainstorm.
On the bookshelves were not only books, but also many unfamiliar things, such as statues and sundries. After the word spirit activated the alchemical matrix of the space, the living spirits in the orchestra hidden in the corner of the space also woke up and played the hymn that had not been heard for thousands of years.
Countless golden light particles filled the entire space, expelling every trace of darkness, revealing the full picture of the golden book treasure house that once belonged to the hermits in the glorious era of the dragon civilization.
