Chapter 2009: Nirvana of Blood and Essence
"Your mausoleum?"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment and said slowly: "I remember Yunru once said that when you failed to attack the final awakening, the final result was that there were no bones left. Although the funeral was later held according to the highest standards of etiquette, there were only It’s just a tomb, and there seems to be nothing in it... Oh, by the way, Wuzhishi!”
The Wuzhi Stone was mentioned by Mrs. Ru in the past as a material used for the final awakening of the bloodline power of the Guanlan clan. However, in Xu Zhiyang's memory, this substance was clearly called "ether".
Until now, Lu Yu couldn't figure out whether Mrs. Ru didn't tell the truth before, or whether these were actually two different names for the same substance. "Five Stones" and "Ether" were actually the same thing.
But when she first mentioned the "Five Ultimate Stones", Mrs. Ru did say that there were Five Ultimate Stones in the tombs of the most powerful people.
Huo Siyu seemed to see through Lu Yu's thoughts at a glance, and said with a slight smile: "Are you confused now? You don't know whether to believe Xu Zhiyang's memory, believe what Yunru said to you, or simply agree with both of them at the same time. , treating Wuzhi Stone and Ether as the same thing?”
Lu Yu's heart sank and he said calmly: "I think I will definitely get the most accurate answer from you."
"Of course I won't show off to you on these matters..." Huo Siyu winked at him, "In fact, Wuzhi Stone and Ether are not the same thing. Although they have the same source, they have undergone a series of complicated processes. After processing, they turned into two items with completely different properties, just like graphite and diamond in nature... The source of Hades's own needs transformed the source material into ether in the alchemical field, and we did the same For our own needs, we converted it into a 'Five-Zhi Stone' that is more suitable for our use..."
"Alchemy field?" Lu Yu frowned slightly, "Does it refer to the 'etheric field' in Xu Zhiyang's memory?"
"That's right!" Huo Siyu said with a smile: "This is another difference in name. The Wuzhi Stone is obtained from the alchemy field. Our Guanlan Empire calls it the alchemy field, but the Hades Temple calls it the 'etheric field' , in fact they all refer to the same place.”
"The situation was special back then. I couldn't expose the truth that I had occupied Wu Qibin in front of everyone in the Hades Temple. Therefore, I could only communicate with Yunru and others from the perspective of the Hades Temple. So I told Yunru only five As for the Zhishi, from the perspective of the Hades Temple, only the Five Zhishi can attract the descendants of Guanlan to take the bait. If I tell them the secret of Ether directly, it may arouse the suspicion of everyone in the Hades Temple. "
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel stunned. The case was finally solved. It turned out that the truth was like this.
Huo Siyu continued: "It needs to be pointed out that there are two irreversible states between the Wuzhi Stone and the ether. After the Hades Temple uses its own power to convert the source material into ether, it can no longer be converted into the Wuzhi Stone; And after we use our own power to convert the source material into the Five-Zhi Stone, we can no longer convert it into ether. The reason why our Guanlan Empire was able to coexist harmoniously in the Hades Temple in the past is because we jointly developed the source material. When this development progresses to a certain extent, the output of the source material reaches the upper limit...the output is only so much in total. If they have more, then we will have less. If we have more, then they will have less. , So this laid the foundation for the conflict between us.”
Lu Yu nodded suddenly.
In fact, this coincided with what he had always suspected. The parting of ways between the two parties was indeed due to uneven distribution of the spoils, but the complexity of the details involved far exceeded his...
About the alchemy field, about the source material, about their joint mining... this must involve more and more complex secrets. Lu Yu originally wanted to continue digging deeper, but at this time Huo Siyu changed his tone, Said: "The topic has gone too far, let's get back to our present..."
"In my mausoleum, there is indeed a Wuzhi stone, but it is not just this Wuzhi stone... You know, the construction of this mausoleum did not start after my death. In fact, I Construction has already started since I took the throne. During the hundreds of years I have been in charge, its construction progress has always been under my control, and I have already made preparations for the necessary arrangements. "
"Today, when I am preparing for the final stage of bloodline awakening, I am more aware than anyone else of the danger involved. This danger not only comes from the awakening itself, but may also come from external interference. Under such circumstances, I How could I not be prepared in advance? So in this mausoleum, I have already prepared a backup plan to face the failure of awakening."
Lu Yu was surprised and asked: "What kind of back-up plan?"
"A drop of blood essence." Huo Siyu replied, "A drop of pure blood essence that I condensed with my whole life's work. It is preserved in this mausoleum. The five-stone stone is used to preserve its activity. This method...it may be difficult for others to understand the meaning of this, but I think you can definitely understand it."
Lu Yu couldn't help being stunned again.
He can indeed understand the meaning of this...
When he first awakened the lotus seed and first came into contact with the "Nine Turns of Nirvana Sutra", he remembered that the highest realm of practicing this technique was described in the Nine Turns of Nirvana Sutra, which could reach "a drop of blood turning into a lotus, endless life"... With just a drop of blood, one could achieve Nirvana rebirth!
Obviously, Huo Siyu's intention of retaining this drop of pure blood is similar to the highest realm of the "Nine Turns of Nirvana Sutra", and at least it is a similar method... Lu Yu didn't expect that he had practiced the "Nine Turns of Nirvana Sutra" for so long, but he still hadn't touched the threshold of Nirvana. He didn't expect that now he would have to see Huo Siyu's Nirvana first.
"So, do you want to use this drop of blood to reshape your body?" Lu Yu was very curious. He also wanted to know how other people would perform similar operations outside the scope of the "Nine Turns of Nirvana Sutra"?
Huo Siyu smiled sweetly at Lu Yu and said, "I have such a plan... But to be honest, if I do it alone, it is indeed a very difficult task, and I dare not guarantee the final result..."
"But now it is different. With your help, I think this thing will be completed smoothly!"
"Uh... How do you want me to help?" Lu Yu asked in confusion.
Huo Siyu lowered her head, and a blush appeared on her face, which made her look more charming. She chuckled and said, "Don't worry, this thing will not be too difficult for you... Maybe it will be a very pleasant process!"
