Chapter 772: Alchemy
"Oh, of course, I'll be careful not to cause any damage to Jade Lu. ”
After speaking, Fan Lin quietly looked at this unwilling goblin, and the jade record was placed in front of him, forbidding him to watch it, and now it was like a joke.
However, there are some other problems.
Damn it, the goblins didn't disarm the defensive magic at all, and through his magical eyes, Van Lin could clearly capture the silk threads that entwined the entire space, intertwined, like woven cobwebs.
"Absolutely. Pergner said reluctantly, his hand pressing against the wall next to him, and Van Lin could clearly feel the fading power.
This goblin is deliberate, and if you rush in, you will definitely suffer from some unexpected magic.
Van Lin cautiously walked inside, and then checked his surroundings first, so he was laughed at by the goblins.
However, Fan Lin didn't care, if he was really yin by this goblin, it would be a big problem, and besides, and he had already been yin, otherwise on the second day of his arrival in Egypt, Fan Lin should have seen the full content of the jade record.
But now it's a wish.
Legend has it that alchemy originated in Egypt.
In 1900 B.C., the Egyptian pharaoh Hermes, his legendary father Toth, and Hermes' eldest son, Tat, became the legendary "Hermes God". The triune god condensed the knowledge of alchemy into 13 sentences, carved on an emerald gemstone plate, which was passed down to the world.
People call this text "Jade Record". (Emerald Tablet, or Smaragdine Table).
In the Middle Ages, alchemists would have a copy of the Jade Catalogue hanging in their workshops, which was the final instruction they needed. For Hermes's philosophy, it is like the Chinese Tao Te Ching for Taoism and alchemy. Alchemy presents itself as a set of practical techniques, perhaps in order to pass on this set of ideas, so that the true philosopher can see through the superficial illusions, apply the description of "things" to the "mind", and obtain the spiritual teachings that lie behind it.
Philosophy or something, it's obviously not very applicable to wizards, but for wizards, the Philosopher's Stone is the hard truth, and in the eyes of most people, the secret of the Jade Record is the secret of the Philosopher's Stone.
However, this is not the case with what Van Lin got from Nicolamet, the Philosopher's Stone is only a part, just as alchemy is only a part of the Book of Abraham.
What Van Lin wanted was another answer, one that was the same or different from the Book of Abraham.
To be honest, this book is so old, just like the Book of Abraham, the symbols of each text have to be recognized, but by studying the Book of Abraham, Van Lin understands a truth.
Whether it is a text or a carving, its role is to transmit, or to transmit spirit, or to transmit knowledge, and the vast majority of it is a role in preserving magic.
This includes a lot of things, such as spirits, perceptions, changes in emotions, the magnitude of magic, and so on, which cannot be depicted by words, which is also known as symbols......
And now, he is not watching the jade record, he knows those words, the content of the jade record, and the process to be completed now is to perceive the magic and use the greatness of one paragraph to communicate the legend of another.
Van Lin silently recited the opening of the Book of Abraham, and he needed to build a bridge so that the essence of the jade record could be preserved intact.
With the thought of the spell, the surface of the jade record began to change strangely, and an emerald green light connected to the center of Fan Lin's eyebrows, looking like a bridge was built between the two, and with the passage of time, the jade record that had been sealed for endless time also began to move.
More and more light enveloped Vanlin's body.
Gradually, Van Lin entered a strange state, which was like a process of transmission, and although it felt cold, it was not unfamiliar.
With the gradual deepening of communication, the symbols on the original jade record became one imprint after another in Fan Lin's mind.
These things come together to make a sound, and it sounds ......
"Truth is not false, never lie, it will bring truth. A deep voice slowly narrated, "The lower is the same, the upper is the same, and the miracle of the One is accomplished." ”
"All things are the One, and were created from the One through differentiation. ”
Here we are talking about the question of origin, the big universe of ideas, the universe, and nature, and the small universe of the individual, mind, and soul are a one, harmonious, and mapping relationship, and the transformation process of alchemy is used to liberate the spirit from the material, which not only recreates the matter, but also reshapes the mind, and will reproduce the miracle created by the universe that is the Tao, "all things".
To put it simply, this is the first part, which lies in the conception and fusion, and the object and itself, if it is placed in the alchemy process, this section should be called the processing and processing of materials?
Van Lin shook his head, his thinking seemed to be a little too superficial, but excessive explanation was not a good thing.
Speaking of which, the voice was remembered by Van Lin, and the voice of his own voice was like this, and it was really a strange phenomenon to speak to himself.
"The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind, and nourished by the earth. Fan Lin's deep voice once again remembered in his mind, and through magic, Jade Lu had transformed everything into a way that Fan Lin understood.
"Here is the source of all the perfection of the world, and its power is most complete on earth. ”
The explanation of this passage also roughly understands that in the way of alchemy, the sun is the father and the moon is the mother...... That is, everything has a reference, a correspondence, a constant mixture, a supplement, and then to achieve the perfection that can be achieved by cognition.
It's hard, perfect, and until now, Van Lin hasn't seen a perfect.
"Divide the earth into fire, extract the essence in roughness, and act cautiously. ”
"He ascended from the earth to heaven and descended from heaven to attain power above and below him. ”
"In this way you may receive the glory of the world, and be free from darkness and obscurity. ”
This is to say that in order to manifest the brilliance of the true self, one must distinguish between the material and the spiritual, between the spiritual call and the material desires, before pursuing the above-mentioned union of yin and yang. When a person transcends the opposition between yin and yang, ego and mind, and seeks immortal spirituality, he awakens from the reality of existence, gains enlightenment wisdom, and finds light. Back in real life, everything is clear.
The truth of the same path, the two-sided nature of all things, lies in how the alchemist himself treats me.
"This is the power of all forces, destroying the tenacity. ”
"This is how the world was created, and so it is miraculous. ”
"I am called the Triple Great Hermes because I have the wisdom of the three parts of the world. ”
"That's what I call great work. ”
As for this paragraph, Van Lin prefers to interpret him as Hermes himself bragging about Bilibili......
