Chapter 671: New Pit (1)
At night, An Xiaoyu looked at the information on the terminal. This is the information that An Xiaoyu found through the internal database of the mecha department, which records the history of the Oracle Academy and the actions it has participated in. As I said, the Oracle Academy came from the group of body cultivators who did not take refuge in other races.
Because at the beginning of the creation of the empire, this group of body cultivators expressed their participation in the empire in time, and the three thousand empires did not want to see their fellow human beings left behind, so all the human beings who could be gathered were also gathered, and the body cultivation was also established because the inheritance was about to be cut off, and the oracle was created and officially protected.
At a time when almost no one knew about body cultivation, the empire took the initiative to use the country's resources to collect gifted body cultivation inheritors and send them to the oracle courtyard. An Xiaoyu knew that this kind of behavior was on the one hand to prevent the body cultivation from severing the inheritance, and on the other hand, it was to keep these inheritances in the hands of the empire.
Therefore, with the inheritance from generation to generation, the body cultivation can only rely on the power of the empire, looking for inheritors recognized by the empire to pass on their own Dao lineage. So slowly, the House of Oracles began to really become a subordinate institution of the Empire, an institution that obeyed orders.
Of course, this institution is not on the list of official institutions of the Empire, and the Empire does not dare to guarantee that it will be able to fully control these people. At least historically, there have been many rebellions against the Empire by the Oracle Academy, and although these rebellions were eventually suppressed, they still had far-reaching consequences.
The most profound influence is the scattered cultivators in the empire now, many of them are inherited from the original oracle and then escaped from the turmoil. Because of the existence of such people, the cultivation outside the empire gradually began to enter the territory of the empire.
Of course, most of these people who came to the empire were vow-keepers.
Because the restrictions imposed on the precept holders are too great, and because of the characteristics of the school of practice, they do not have the kind of method to practice quickly and quickly increase their strength, so it is not very good to survive in the territory of the alien race where the winner is king, and because the means are too much like normal human beings, they are not welcomed by the alien race.
Therefore, with the emergence of body cultivation within the empire, more and more schools of body cultivation began to return to the empire, resulting in the situation of scattered cultivation everywhere now. Later, the institutions of the empire gradually improved, technology gradually developed, and the control of the oracle became more and more profound.
For at least more than a thousand years, there has been no more turmoil in the Oracle.
However, there are still many people who have a conservative opinion about the Oracle, because they don't know whether the dormant cultivator is lying down or really becoming part of the empire. In their opinion, since Shen Xiu had helped foreign races back then, he was not suitable for people all the way to the empire in his bones, so he had to guard against it.
An Xiaoyu didn't care if the Oracle Academy would be in turmoil again, what the cultivators were asking for was just powerful power, a long life, and the inheritance of the Dao system, and what the Oracle Academy was asking for must be these, they just wanted to find a way out, and with the guidance of the Great Cultivation World, they wouldn't be in chaos for the time being.
As for the future body cultivation, if it is really defeated under the hands of Wu Xiu, it is uncertain what kind of actions the Oracle Academy will make.
And what An Xiaoyu cares about is what the Oracle Academy has done over the years.
Since it is an institution of the Empire, the Oracle's House will inevitably do something at the behest of the Empire. These include the investigation of other body cultivators, the investigation of some martial cultivators, the investigation of imperial officials, and even the investigation of some ancient ruins.
During the last Great Purge, the Oracle House had also acted with An Xiaoyu, and their methods of dealing with aliens and martial cultivators were indeed clever, and they looked like they had experienced a hundred battles, and they didn't know how many dirty things the empire had made them do.
In addition to these behind-the-scenes work, it is to preach the things of the practitioner to the outside world. Before the great world of cultivation began, most of the methods of practitioners circulating in the market were self-cultivation. Rumors about manipulating the earth, manipulating people's souls, and the like are everywhere, and there are even a large number of literary and artistic works about people with such abilities.
It can be said that the Oracle's House is an effective means of deterring ordinary people in the process of the empire's development. It is precisely because of the existence of such means that all citizens of the empire will think that the empire still holds in its hands the mysterious means of the ancient and even ancient times before the founding of the state, and produces an invisible deterrent and belonging.
At the same time, while working for the Empire, the Oracle Academy is also constantly transforming the inheritance of body cultivation and cultivation exercises.
The reason for this transformation is, first of all, because of the school of the vow-keepers. There are too many constraints on the precept holders, and as humans become the creatures that occupy half of the world, the ancient spells are more and more contrary to the rules between heaven and earth, so they are almost only left with constraints, and gradually lose the power they should have.
The sages of the oracle were keenly aware that change was necessary. Therefore, no matter how to transform spells into a form that is easy to control and give full play to in the new era, and how to reduce the constraints on the precept holders in the process of ascension of the cultivation realm, has become their daily research topic.
Except for the time when they went out on a mission, according to them, they worked hard all day long for these two problems. Of course, it is impossible for them to let the people of the Empire go to the deepest depths of the Oracle Academy, and the Empire does not know the accuracy of their statement.
Over the years, the Oracle Academy has indeed spread the transformation method of body cultivation spells in the new era, such as new combinations and subtle changes in hand duels and mantras, and methods such as the use of energy with the flow of the laws of heaven and earth, all of which have promoted the long-term development of body cultivation in the empire.
However, on the second question, regarding the restraint of the vow-bearers, the oracle has not been able to get an effective solution, perhaps because the practice of the ordination bearers themselves determines the result, or perhaps because the oracle has the result but does not make it public, no one can know.
At the same time, this document also records the development status of the other three schools of self-cultivation, which are the same as the vow-bearers, and their situations are also different.
Although the Ringbearer is controlled by the Empire, it is not the worst. The worst one is the Mind Charmer. It's like Xue Weizheng that An Xiaoyu once met, the methods of these mind puzzlers can't be put on the table, and it is impossible for them to be promoted to a higher realm in their exercises, and naturally there are no masters to find a way out of the new era for them.
Therefore, the Mind Puzzler has gradually become an existence in the market that uses strange means to deceive and deceive, and the better ones are still jugglers, and more directly become thieves, robbers, abductors, robbers, and robbers, so the inheritance of the Mind Puzzler is strictly forbidden to circulate in the Empire, and the registered inheritors are also targeted by the Empire.
And the wizards who live in the territory of the alien race seem to have transformed them into things that are not human or ghost through secret methods, they completely transformed their bodies, and the offspring they gave birth to were completely out of the state of normal people, and even they intermarried with the alien race to get new offspring.
In short, these disgusting guys who use the most primitive energy and often fiddle with the internal organs and teeth of various creatures and insects are becoming more and more disgusting and more and more distant from civilized society in the natural quagmire of alien territory, and some are even incomparable to alien races, but they are finally scattered.
The best one is the Armage.
The Arcane Mage is the least constrained of this school of heaven and earth, because they themselves do not use soul sacrifice to obtain the power of the law directly from heaven and earth, but through soul manipulation, sacrifice some power between heaven and earth, and manipulate the power of law through these powers.
That is, what is recorded in those books in the Three Thousand Academies - the magic circle.
The circle is a characteristic of the arcane mage, and the arcane master uses a variety of different magic circles to control the power of the force, and the circle itself is more like a rigorous logical language, similar to programming. As the runes and structures in the circle change, the effects produced are also very different.
Because he has mastered this logical language that even other races can't understand, he has become an upstart in the alien territory, and he has become a prosperous one. Many of the less powerful aliens, or those with many other specific needs, prefer to keep the arcane in their territory.
For example, the Tree Cave Elves have lived in the tree caves deep in the mountains for many years, but their eyes are not good, so they often need to use the illuminated magic circle as a light source, and the Arcane Mage has become their guest and lives a mixed life with them.
Of course, the arcane is noble and dignified. If they are forcibly requisitioned by the aliens, they will rise up and lead all the mages in the alien territory to act together, and if they can't resist successfully, they would rather die than be controlled.
Because the methods of the arcane mages are strange and abnormal, and they are fundamentally different from the normal power of the law, it is difficult for the alien race to control them, so their suicide actions are often successful. In this way, an inexplicable respect for the arcane mage began to arise within the alien territory.
An Xiaoyu put down the terminal, and suddenly thought, since the inheritance of the arcane mage did not have any constraints, why did they help the alien race instead of the human race in the first place? This is very intriguing. In particular, the administrator's disdain for self-cultivation is almost the same, and it is not divided into various schools.
If it is really because of the constraints between heaven and earth, then the Administrator should despise only the Ring Keepers, the Wizards, and the Mind Seyers. However, the administrator also looked down on the arcane mage's magic circle, and the choice between the arcane mage and the human race made An Xiaoyu think of a possibility.
Could it be that Master Ao's cultivation is actually more similar to the primeval races than to humans? When Master Ao cultivates to the end, will he also turn himself into an existence that is neither human nor ghostly? It's just that this change is more internal, and not noticeable from the outside.
Thinking like this, An Xiaoyu searched for relevant information about the arc mage, but did not get any useful information. There is very little information about arcane mages within the Empire, so little that almost all of them are obtained from captives and legends.
Maybe the admin knows better?
An Xiaoyu thought about it, couldn't help but shudder, and decided not to mention this matter to the administrator.
But thinking of the administrator at this time, An Xiaoyu couldn't help but put down the terminal and lay on the bed, but found that she didn't miss the slightest bit. Is this what it is called, enough played? She couldn't help but wonder, did the two of them really enter a period of weakness?
Slowly, An Xiaoyu thought from the recent situation of the two people to the time when the two of them first met, An Xiaoyu regretted it a little. Why did you take the initiative to have a showdown with the administrator in the first place? Just like at the beginning, it's nice to be in the small pavilion every day, and no one picks it off?
"Ah~~" An Xiaoyu sighed in frustration after rolling on the bed twice.
The northern sky is especially high in the summer. There was a crescent moon hanging outside the window, and the faint moonlight cast down, with a faint coolness.
The dimension of Tianchi Province is actually far from that high, but because it is mountainous and there has been a lot of volcanic activity, it has formed a rock structure here and the surface of the rock structure everywhere, so it heats up quickly during the day and cools down quickly at night, so it is exceptionally cool at night.
Coupled with the cold wind from the extreme north blowing from Beiyun Province, the temperature is much lower than that of other provinces. Although An Xiaoyu is not afraid of such cold, but in such a night, it is inevitable to feel a little desolate, and An Xiaoyu can't help but suffer from gains and losses.
also suffers from gains and losses, as well as Zhonghuaran.
Zhong Huaran thought that An Xiaoyu's family had followed Xu Hewei to Jianshan City to watch the mecha competition. After all, An Xiaoyu and they went to Dongyun to watch the game before, so it will inevitably make people preconceived. But after arriving in Sumire Mountain City, Zhong Huaran realized that he was wrong.
She quickly found Xu Hewei, but she didn't find any news about An Xiaoyu. Soon, she used all kinds of means, yes, all kinds of means to get some news from the mouth of the pilot of the transport plane who picked up An Xiaoyu and Xu Hewei at the beginning.
It seems that An Xiaoyu got off the plane halfway, but just when Zhong Huaran wanted to get the location of An Xiaoyu and their going, Xu He Wei found her.
For Zhong Huaran, of course, Xu Hewei heard An Xiaoyu say it, but this matter was only passed between a few of them, and Xu Heru didn't know. Because the matter involved Xiao An, An Xiaoyu didn't want the matter to be public, and when she told Xu Hewei at the beginning, she only mentioned it by the way when she talked about Gao Zhi.
Xu Hewei was also a little helpless about Zhong Huaran, this woman was so persistent, it could be regarded as a favor for them, and he didn't speak ill of him, so he said: "An Xiaoyu They did leave halfway, but where did they go, you don't have to think about it, you go back!" ”
Zhong Huaran looked at Xu Hewei, and suddenly laughed: "Little brother, don't say it so ruthlessly!" After all, it's just a matter of your words, you just tell me? ”
As he spoke, Zhong Huaran leaned on the cockpit next to him, and his body was concave in a bewitching arc. Xu Hewei frowned slightly, and began to understand why An Xiaoyu didn't want this woman to come into contact with Xiao An, it was easy to bring bad children.
So he said: "This kind of method is useless to me, do you think that people who are with An Xiaoyu all day long will be tempted by you?" ”
Zhong Huaran approached Xu Hewei, stretched out a hand and put it on Xu Hewei's shoulder, the fragrant breath came to his face, and Xu Hewei's heart party loyalty chilled some impurities, and then she heard her say: "No matter how good An Xiaoyu is, it is not yours." ”
Xu Hewei looked at Zhong Huaran's skillfully expressioned face, and suddenly the little restlessness in his heart disappeared in an instant, and he couldn't help but smile: "An Xiaoyu is indeed not mine, and I never thought of asking for her, but I didn't think I could get you, save it!" ”
"How do you know you can't get me if you haven't tried?" Zhong Huaran put another hand on Xu Hewei's shoulder, and the distance between the two began to become ambiguous, making Xu Hewei a little uncomfortable. Although he is strong-willed, he has been protected by Xu He Ru since he was a child, and he has never experienced this kind of battle at all, so it is inevitable that he is a little inexperienced.
Coughing dryly, Xu Hewei looked away, but found that the current posture of the two people, no matter where they looked, what they saw was something they shouldn't see, unless they raised their heads to look at the roof, but in this way, they seemed to be a little too empty in their hearts.
So Xu He looked into Zhong Huaran's eyes, and finally warned: "If you do this again, don't blame me for being rude." ”
Zhong Huaran smiled, her hair and chest trembled, which made Xu Hewei's heartbeat accelerate, and he quickly became vigilant. Zhong Huaran tightened his arms at this time, put his face next to Xu Hewei's ear, and whispered, "Little brother, don't be polite to me!" ”
Xu Hewei's face turned red all of a sudden, but before he could experience this kind of shame carefully, Xu Hewei suddenly felt a biting cold coming from behind him, this cold was so familiar, Xu Hewei subconsciously withdrew his body, and the force was too great and even hit the bulkhead.
Then there was a crisp gunshot, a bullet was dodged by Zhong Huaran, and Xu Heru's eerie voice came from outside the cockpit: "Slut!" Today I'm going to break you to pieces! I TM......"
Zhong Huaran saw that Xu Heru also chased after him, and secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and at the same time complained, how could this woman follow him everywhere? She was premeditated, right? But now that he can't manage so much, Xu Heru has already started to go berserk mode.
Xu Hewei hid in the corner of the cockpit, watching the bullets flying everywhere in the cockpit, Zhong Huaran dodged while flying towards the front of the plane, breaking the front window of the plane at once, and reaching the sky outside the plane.
Seeing that his sister also chased to the other side of the plane, and the cabin returned to calm, Xu Hewei breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat, and was glad that the old lady came really immediately, and then heard Zhonghua's voice coming from the window:
"Hahaha! I can't think of it! The old lady can fly! ”
