Chapter 412: Memories Hidden in the Museum
"How do you feel?"
Li Fan nodded slightly as he heard the commentator Bingyin's question.
"A beautiful era, worthy of its name."
This was said half to respond without revealing any flaws.
And half of it was sincere.
Indeed, if we only talk about "living", the cultivators under the rule of the Ten Thousand Immortals League and the Five Elders Association are much easier than in most periods in history.
Even in terms of the difficulty of obtaining a suitable practice, it is not much more difficult than the casual cultivators in ancient times.
Although once you join the Ten Thousand Immortals League, you will be a cow and horse for life.
But at least, if the cows and horses in captivity don't commit suicide, it is not a problem for them to live longer.
In other periods in the history of the Xuanhuang Realm, the short-lived cultivators who wanted to become cows and horses may not have the qualifications.
As for whether life is more precious or the so-called freedom is higher.
It is another eternal and serious topic.
Li Fan has no intention of entangled with this.
What he cared about was that the one hundred fragments of divine consciousness that had just been baptized by [Era] were about to disperse in the sea of consciousness.
However, they were absorbed by the crystal of the Dao-transforming stone condensed by his practice of the secret method of [Transformation of the Dao God One].
Those things that had been experienced in [Era], but the details quickly became blurred after the experience ended, slowly became clear again.
In the blue Dao-transforming stone, independent scenes can be vaguely seen, slowly taking shape.
It looks a bit similar to [Era].
"What is this?"
Li Fan's heart was slightly shocked.
"When the [Era] experience ended, the figure I vaguely saw should not be an illusion."
"It's like a means of implanting brainwashing thoughts in the minds of all the monks watching."
"But I have the Dao-transforming stone myself, not only immune to this brainwashing. And..."
While continuing to visit the Shenzang Museum under the guidance of Bingyin, Li Fan separated his mind and checked the changes in his own Dao-transforming stone.
Perhaps it was because all the Dao-transforming stones in the world came from the original [Dao-transforming stone mother], and they were of the same origin.
The Dao-transforming stone crystal in Li Fan's sea of consciousness spontaneously absorbed all the scattered consciousness.
And it was recovering in reverse according to the [era] imprint contained in the consciousness memory, trying to reconstruct the worlds derived from Li Fan's memory.
Unfortunately, it seems that the quality of Li Fan's Dao-transforming stone is insufficient and the computing power is limited.
When Li Fan wanted to browse these worlds carefully, he found that these worlds were just empty shells.
The picture was not continuous, but developed in a pause.
The scope involved was also limited to a corner of the memory.
Beyond that, it was a distorted and broken mirror.
Li Fan observed for a while.
It was found that these worlds were expanding incrementally in both time and space at a slow speed.
Limited by the deduction ability, the progress was almost imperceptible.
If the Dao-transforming stone was just like this, I am afraid that Li Fan might not be able to make substantial progress even if he reincarnated for a hundred generations.
But Li Fan did not forget that there was a fixed Dao-transforming stone in Yi Yin's tomb.
He can absorb it every time he reincarnates.
The crystal of the Dao Stone in his mind will also become stronger.
"At that time, maybe I can reproduce the [Era] myself?"
"What's the use of this?"
Li Fan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes flashed.
"Senior Bingyin, I suddenly thought of a question. You just said that you once invested millions of blank souls into the [Era] for experiments."
"So in the [Era] that is running now, are there any real souls?"
He asked the commentator.
"Haha, of course there are."
Bingyin seemed reluctant to say more about this matter, and just replied simply.
Li Fan thought for a while, and then suddenly asked: "You said that such a large number of souls have been baptized by the [Era]. Have you ever been able to realize that the world you are in is false and not real?"
"After all, no matter how 'fantasy and close to reality' it is, it will eventually be different from the real world, right?"
Bingyin suddenly glanced at Li Fan.
Looking around, he lowered his voice: "When I handed over to the previous Bingyin, he once told me an anecdote."
"About thirty-nine years ago, [Times] stopped running for a period of time."
"The entire museum was also closed at that time, and no one was allowed to enter or leave."
"No one knew why at the time, but later there was a rumor that one of the millions of souls in [Times] disappeared inexplicably."
"We searched the entire Shenzang Museum, but we didn't find it in the end."
"The matter was later left unresolved."
"As for whether it really escaped or disappeared due to a malfunction..."
Bingyin said nothing more.
Li Fan nodded slowly.
As long as something is possible, as long as the sample is large enough, it can be regarded as inevitable.
Millions of souls, constantly reincarnated and repeated.
There is always a lucky person who will discover the truth of the world he lives in.
Li Fan didn't find it strange.
He just confirmed one thing from Bingyin.
[Times], perhaps the real use is not to brainwash.
But to select and cultivate true geniuses.
What a person ultimately achieves cannot be determined simply by talent.
Luck, character, determination, etc. all have a combined impact.
Some so-called geniuses often die on the way before they grow up.
On the contrary, those who are insignificant may go further.
In the real world, it costs a lot to train monks.
There is also the risk of the monks' accidental death and all the initial investment going down the drain.
In the [Era], there is no need to worry about this at all.
Even through the [Era] selection, the effect may be even better.
Indeed, the Great Dark Age and the Wasteland Age, the darkest periods in the history of the Xuanhuang Realm, are extremely dangerous and have a very high mortality rate.
But on the other hand, if a soul can make achievements during this period, it is a great achievement and changes history.
It is enough to prove his extraordinaryness.
Li Fan believes that in the long years of the [Era], there should be quite a few such beings.
Select them, give them a new body, and apply brainwashing and absolute loyalty to the forbidden spell.
Cultivate absolutely loyal dogs and thugs who are loyal to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
The strength of these monks is scary to think about.
At the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Immortals League and during the construction of the Tianxuan Soul Locking Array.
Li Fan often saw some black-clothed monks, and he didn't know which organization of the Ten Thousand Immortals League they belonged to.
They often had expressionless faces.
But the dangerous aura that was accidentally revealed on their bodies, and the blood that could not be hidden, always made Li Fan feel a little cold in his heart.
Li Fan guessed that these people were most likely cultivated through [Times].
"This method is very wonderful."
"And for me, maybe I can wait until the quality of my Dao Stone is sufficient, and use the past history to hone myself."
As the saying goes, heroes create current events.
But current events also make heroes.
Li Fan doesn't think he is so outstanding.
He is just an ordinary person who relies on the [Return to True] ability to struggle to survive in this dangerous Xuanhuang world.
With his experience as a Grand Master in Daxuan for several lifetimes, and the experience he has summarized.
When dealing with Yuanying and below monks, he may be able to cope with it.
But when facing those old monsters who have survived the disasters in ancient times to today in the future,
It may be a bit stretched and immature.
More importantly, in front of these real strong men, there may not even be a chance to [return].
In wrestling with them, in addition to cultivation, mind and experience are also extremely important.
By constantly experiencing the historical fragments that imitate [era] in his mind, perhaps some of Li Fan's shortcomings in this regard can be made up.
...
The Museum of Divine Treasures, with countless treasures.
Under the leadership of Bingyin, Li Fan took a quick look and browsed through the treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm.
In addition to the [Beautiful Times] area.
There are many other areas in the Divine Treasures Museum.
[Heroes are Prideful] mainly includes items related to monks who have left traces in the history of the Xuanhuang Realm.
A mountain of corpses and a sea of blood: It was originally just an ordinary iron blade. After the great changes came, its owner carried this weapon and slaughtered countless monks. The blood dyed the blade dark red, and the evil spirit remained even after thousands of years. After endless killing, its owner successfully survived. But what makes people sigh is that this murder weapon was found in the stomach of an underground beast. Its owner was also digested to the point that only hand bones were left, and he held the [Month of Corpses and Sea of Blood] tightly with reluctance.
Ten Thousand Head Banner: A magical weapon that exudes a foul smell. It is made from tens of thousands of heads. And these heads all come from the same sect: the Soul Sealing Sect. And the refiner of the Ten Thousand Head Banner is also from the Soul Sealing Sect. When the catastrophe came, he slaughtered all his fellow disciples and refined it into a magical weapon. It can be said to be extremely cruel. It is a pity that such a person did not survive the Great Dark Age in the end. This magical weapon also became someone else's trophy. It was passed down for thousands of years and finally belonged to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
…
[Cang Hai Chang Tian] area: It shows the various topographical changes in the Xuan Huang Realm over thousands of years, which made Li Fan dumbfounded. The changes in the mountains and seas like the Cong Yunhai are really common. The sky river fell to the earth, and the high mountains cracked into deep valleys. Even the land of the two states merged into one overnight. Li Fan sighed that he was surprised by the things he had never seen before.
…
[Wanfa Zhengfeng] area: displays various techniques that have appeared in the history of Xuanhuang Realm. Of course, there are only relevant introductions, and the specific contents of the techniques cannot be seen. Even so, Li Fan was fascinated and couldn't walk.
…
Li Fan was immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself. He forgot the passage of time.
When these astronomical, thousands of years old objects appeared in front of Li Fan through time and space, the image of Xuanhuang Realm finally gradually became vivid in his mind.
It was no longer just an empty concept, but was stained with the thickness of history.
Slowly, he finally came to the central area of the Museum of Natural History.
The most conspicuous thing was that there was a large empty space in the center.
There was nothing else except a human skull.
Bingyin pointed at the skull and said, "This is the skull of the first monk infected with the miasma. I don't know what's so precious about it, but the curator has designated it to be placed in..."
"Huh? What's wrong with you?"
Bingyin looked at Li Fan beside him in surprise.
He suddenly closed his eyes, as if he was in great pain, and his whole body was shaking violently.
He was sweating all over his body.
"Are you okay?"
Seeing that Li Fan's condition was getting worse, Bingyin couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
Li Fan smiled with difficulty and shook his head slightly, indicating that he was fine.
But he didn't dare to open his red eyes.
"Is it found that the absorbable item is [Eternal Relic]."
"Do you want to absorb it?"
"Is it found that the absorbable item is [Eternal Relic]."
"Do you want to absorb it!"
"Do you want to absorb it!"
"Do you want to absorb it!"
...
The prompt sound of [Zhenzhen] seemed to be out of control, constantly echoing in Li Fan's mind.
And the sound became louder and louder, almost occupying his mind.
And he felt an indescribable hunger, which was destroying his reason.
When he first saw the eternal relic of Tianyang Zhenren, this hunger had appeared.
But now, the intensity of this desire is a hundred times, a thousand times that of when he faced Tianyang Relic!
There is another chapter to make up tomorrow. This chapter is 3400 words and can't be written (it happened to be broken)
