#476 - The sky is blue and the underworld is dark
Xu Erniu was captured by the Innate Peacock?
Zhang Chen looked at the diary in front of him, his breathing became chaotic for a moment, and then quickly calmed down. That short line revealed a lot of information.
First: The Innate Peacock also survived the thunder tribulation.
Second: Xu Erniu can still write a diary, which means Xu Erniu is still alive.
Zhang Chen quickly turned to the next page, and then his pupils continued to shrink:
"The Innate Peacock captured me, but he didn't hurt me. He saw me in a daze, not eating or drinking, and was afraid that I would starve to death and then be held accountable by my elder brother. But my elder brother is already dead, so how can he hold him accountable?"
"Ten days later, when I was on the verge of starvation, the Innate Peacock became anxious. He told me a piece of news, that is, my elder brother is very likely not dead, because the imprint my elder brother left in his spiritual world is still completely preserved, emitting a shining light."
"Later, the Innate Peacock told me that my elder brother's physical body may have been destroyed, but his soul is very likely preserved and went to a mysterious world called the Underworld."
"I want to refine a kind of elixir that can reverse life and death, break the laws of life and death, touch the rules of life and death, and lure out the legendary underworld world. I want to ask him in person, why!"
Then below are Xu Erniu's various records of refining elixirs and collecting prescriptions, and then it stopped abruptly. The back of the diary seemed to be turned into powder by a mysterious force, without any further records.
There was no record of Xu Erniu's later deeds, nor did it record what happened back then.
"What happened later?" Zhang Chen looked at the diary in his hand. The entire back half of the diary disappeared out of thin air. It is not known whether it was torn off or it was not there in the first place. However, Zhang Chen inferred from the content of the notes that the content behind should have been torn off.
"Could it be said that Xu Erniu really refined an elixir that could reverse life and death and reach every corner of the universe, so she was afraid that the elixir formula in the diary would be exposed, so she tore off the formula behind?" Zhang Chen speculated in his heart.
At the same time, he also breathed a sigh of relief, because of his existence, the Innate Peacock did not make things difficult for Xu Erniu, which was great news for him. Moreover, it seemed that Xu Erniu and the Innate Peacock were mixed together, otherwise, when Xu Erniu was refining elixirs here later, the Innate Peacock would not have suddenly sent a message, and then the two of them left in a hurry, and even later Xu Erniu cultivated for eight hundred years and suppressed the remnants of Wuzhuang Temple.
"But where did Xu Erniu go? Did her Grass Returning Pill successfully transform into a Ginseng Fruit Tree?" Zhang Chen's heart was full of confusion.
He knew part of the truth of the past, but more of the truth rolled over like a mist, making Zhang Chen unable to see clearly at all.
"No, if Xu Erniu successfully refined the elixir, why would she cultivate the branches of the Tongtian Jianmu Tree?" Another thought arose in Zhang Chen's mind, and he turned to look at the pill furnace: "So what kind of elixir is being refined in the pill furnace?"
Just when various thoughts were flashing in Zhang Chen's mind, Xie Lingyun, who was beside him, saw Zhang Chen standing there flipping through the books, his face changing from cloudy to sunny, so he asked, "What is recorded in this book that makes your emotions fluctuate so much, and even your aura is messed up."
Zhang Chen closed the notebook when he heard the words: "It's the diary of this alchemist. In my memory, the owner of that memory and this alchemist are old acquaintances, so I feel a little emotional."
Zhang Chen carefully stuffed the notebook into his arms, turned his head to look at the pill furnace, and thought thoughtfully: "If I guessed correctly, what is being refined in this pill furnace should be an elixir that can reach every corner of the universe. Taking this elixir may be able to revive the dead, allow people to reverse the space-time channel, and open the channel to the legendary underworld world."
"What?" Xie Lingyun's eyes rippled with layers of ripples when she heard the words: "Is this true?"
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know when we open it." Zhang Chen moved his feet lightly and came to the pill furnace, his eyes looking up and down at the pill furnace. The entire pill furnace had a mysterious force flowing, closing the inner orifices of the pill furnace, causing the elixir in the pill furnace to not exchange qi with the outside world, so the probability of it being preserved is extremely high.
"Sister, can you open this pill furnace?" Zhang Chen asked.
Xie Lingyun heard the words and the Yin God stepped forward, and when his hands landed on the pill furnace, he saw a mysterious force flowing on the pill furnace, and then Xie Lingyun's Yin God retracted his hands: "The grade of this pill furnace is probably beyond my imagination. Not to mention opening the pill furnace, I don't even have the qualifications to arouse the reaction of the mysterious power of the pill furnace."
Zhang Chen jumped up when he heard the words, came to the top of the pill furnace, grabbed the lid of the pill furnace, and wanted to use the Mountain Moving Technique to forcibly open the lid of the pill furnace, but who knew that the lid of the pill furnace was as stable as Mount Tai, and there was not even a slight shake, and even the mysterious energy was not stimulated.
"The weight of a lid is already beyond my imagination. What level of treasure is this pill furnace? Where did Xu Erniu find this pill furnace?" Zhang Chen looked at the pill furnace with a curious expression. The lines and patterns on the wall of the entire pill furnace had been smoothed out. The entire pill furnace was flowing with flames and ashes, and no origin could be seen at all.
"Old man, do you know the origin of this pill furnace?" Zhang Chen asked the Great自在天魔 in his heart.
The Great自在天魔 ran out of Zhang Chen's body, circled around the pill furnace, and said thoughtfully: "It seems like I have some impression, but... I can't remember! The memory is too chaotic, all fragments, I can't sort it out, I can't remember!"
The Great自在天魔 first nodded, then shook his head and denied it.
Zhang Chen glanced at the Great自在天魔, not knowing how much of what the other party said was true or false, so he asked, "Is there a way to open the pill furnace?"
"Unless you have extremely strong magical powers, otherwise you can only find the formula to control this pill furnace, and you may be able to open this pill furnace. This pill furnace is of extremely high quality, and it will be useful for refining elixirs or sacrificing weapons in the future." The Great自在天魔 touched and rubbed the pill furnace, he felt that the pill furnace in front of him was not simple.
And a treasure that can make the Great自在天魔 tempted must not be an ordinary treasure.
It's a pity that Zhang Chen can't move it away, he doesn't have the formula to control this treasure.
"I wonder if attacking this treasure will cause the formula to control this treasure to fall." A thought flashed in Zhang Chen's mind, but he temporarily suppressed this thought, and instead took out the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, and saw the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror open towards the pill furnace, wanting to reflect the origin and trace the past of the pill furnace.
You must know that the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror can reflect the origin of all things, and the pill furnace in front of you is also one of all things, and naturally it is also within the reflection range of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.
It's just that as Zhang Chen's Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror shone, a golden light appeared on the pill furnace. There were countless vague and looming runes flickering in the golden light, and it actually blocked the light of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, and then Zhang Chen's Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror was chaotic and blurred in that light, and then automatically closed and flew back into Zhang Chen's hands.
"The Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror can't reflect the origin of this pill furnace. Is my magic power too low, or is my sacrifice of the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror not enough?" Zhang Chen was a little doubtful about life, not knowing where the problem was.
"This treasure can actually compete with the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, it's really not an ordinary thing." Seeing this, the Great自在天魔 was not disappointed, but became more and more interested.
Zhang Chen looked up and down at the pill furnace, and also felt that this thing was unusual, and became interested in his heart.
"Is there a way to open this pill furnace?" Xie Lingyun asked.
"Don't worry, let me think about it." Zhang Chen said to Xie Lingyun.
"I wonder if my magic power can make the Eight Trigrams Furnace take the initiative to recognize its owner. You must know that in this era, the mysterious energy between heaven and earth is exhausted, and various mysteries need to rely on devouring human vitality to maintain their own origin from declining, and my magic power is the biggest nourishing item between heaven and earth. I don't believe this pill furnace is not tempted." Zhang Chen circled around the pill furnace, and already had an idea in his mind.
Moreover, he also has a backup plan. This pill furnace looks like it is made of metal. His five-colored divine light should be able to collect it. This object should be within the scope of his restraint.
Zhang Chen stepped forward and poured a trace of magic power into the pill furnace. With the infusion of Zhang Chen's magic power, the pill furnace actually flowed with divine light, a trace of divine power recovered, and a trace of intimacy poured into Zhang Chen's heart. He actually established a inexplicable induction with the pill furnace, and had a trace of inexplicable connection.
"This 'child' is really hungry!" Zhang Chen stroked the pill furnace and felt a trace of emotion in his heart.
"What a stroke of luck!" Seeing that Zhang Chen had just activated his magic power and made the pill furnace automatically recognize its owner, the Great自在天魔 couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
It's simply unreasonable!
This era is too suitable for Zhang Chen, no mystery can reject the temptation of magic power.
You must know that the world has changed drastically and the mysteries are cut off. Although these treasures have a longer continuation time than the gods, they will eventually one day dissipate their mysteries and turn into ordinary things. If they are nourished by magic power, they may be able to reverse the laws of heaven and earth, so as to usher in the opportunity for the great changes in heaven and earth.
Sensing the connection between himself and the pill furnace, Zhang Chen increased the output of magic power in his body, and the righteous god golden light in his body continued to operate, and a steady stream of magic power was forming and pouring into the pill furnace in front of him.
With the infusion of magic power, Zhang Chen finally noticed the essence of the pill furnace. There were divine restrictions appearing inside, like infants waiting to be fed, waiting for Zhang Chen's magic power to nourish them.
With Zhang Chen's magic power infused into the divine restriction, the divine restriction took the initiative to lead Zhang Chen's magic power to occupy the divine restriction.
After a cup of tea, Zhang Chen mastered three divine restrictions, and the magic power in his body had also been exhausted.
Zhang Chen retracted his palm and began to restore his own magic power, spitting out the righteous god golden light in his body.
The Great自在天魔 walked around the pill furnace, the look in his eyes was a little strange, he looked at Zhang Chen from time to time, and then looked at the pill furnace in front of him, his eyes were rolling non-stop, full of cunning light, not knowing what he was thinking.
