Regarding the sealing of the earth, in fact, the biggest obstacle in Zhang Lu's heart is the ability to absorb the energy and thoughts of others (including dragons). This is like a group of people, most of them are empty-handed, but there are a few people who hold the blade alone, do you think that the others can feel at ease? Even if the big guys are all friends, colleagues, and have developed enough trust in each other, but when there is a group of people outside who are also sharp-handed, are those empty-handed willing and daring to accept them easily?

Not to mention the examples of herbivores and carnivores that Sanwu once caught.

Therefore, Zhang Lu didn't want to leak this matter at the beginning, but this matter involved a lot, and he didn't weave the language well in advance, so it was inevitable that clues would be leaked during the narration process. Zhang Lu considered that instead of creating loopholes to make people suspicious, it was better to tell him frankly. If you can really persuade the immortals to help unlock the seal of the earth, then there will be earthlings flying up one after another, and the number will be large, and the time will be long, and this secret will no longer be able to be preserved. Keeping things secret in advance is like hiding a back hand, and waiting until it is revealed, it is really selfless and selfish, and it is likely to cause greater suspicion between the Earth Ascendant and other immortals, leading to splits.

The first batch of ascenders created by Fuxi and Nuwa were originally created, and that group of bastards stumbled on this path, causing the emperor's party to not only kill them, but also worry about the inhabitants of the earth, so they simply sealed them...... He, Earl Zhang, can't repeat the mistakes of the past!

Therefore, despite Sanwu's repeated warnings with his eyes, Zhang Lu still told Lu Lingyin about the relevant matters. Lu Lingyin also considered that this could be a very serious problem - "I don't think it matters, but I'm afraid that others will be ......suspicious" Of course, she didn't have a reason to help the earthlings hide it, so she also informed the other immortals one after another, and told it without concealment at this meeting of the "Dragon Slayer Team".

As early as when Zhang Lu "leaked secrets", Sanwu began to conceive explanatory words, and when the Dengcao monk raised questions about this matter in the meeting, he stood up and talked eloquently, saying-This is not a big deal, who doesn't have some special skills on them? Even if we have a sharp blade, as long as we don't take it out, what is the difference between it and empty-handed? And if anyone dares to take out a sharp blade to hit someone with a colleague and you with a fist, it is no different in nature, right? Whoever dares to fight against his own kind will be attacked by a group, and it makes no difference whether you use a fist or a knife.

Could it be that you are worried that one day there will be more ascenders on the earth, and they will pull out knives and stab you together, and carry out some kind of coup d'état? You can't help but look down on the general moral bottom line of the ascendants, right? Besides, if you dare to draw your sword against other immortals, won't you draw your sword to be the same species on the earth? When the time comes, how can we have the energy to deal with you if we are vigilant, guarded, and contain each other?

However, he was only halfway through his words, when he suddenly heard Ruan Yu laugh loudly and interrupted the conversation. Immediately, Ruan Yu stood up, and his words were really not shocking - "The old man thinks that this kind of ability that can absorb people's energy and thoughts is not inappropriate, but it is a good thing!"

Sanwu couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart I racked my brains to find a reason, trying to explain that this is not necessarily a bad thing, but I haven't dared to rise to the height of a good thing, old man, what kind of wonderful ideas do you have? ”

Ruan Yu looked around, seeing that the big guy's attention was all focused on himself, and he couldn't help but feel slightly proud—if it weren't for the sense of accomplishment that I might get from my own kind, why would I slack off on my cultivation and come to join in your "great cause of slaying dragons"? But he refused to answer positively at first, but turned to Zhang Lu and took evidence: "Mr. Zhang has absorbed Tangyang Ji and Changyi, right?"

Zhang Lu hurriedly declared: "It's just that after they fell, they absorbed a small part......"

"How do you feel, what do you get?"

Zhang Lu replied: "For Tangyang's predecessors, they inadvertently absorbed it, and immediately retreated, and did not dare to continue, so the amount obtained is very small, and I can't say how I feel it." As for Changyi, I hated him for bullying him, and I was eager to find out the truth, so I took the initiative to absorb it, and the amount was relatively large. The energy obtained is still in the body, and it needs to be digested slowly before it can be seamlessly integrated with itself...... It's like listening to Changyi talk about his life experience, and the experience is like seeing it—I got it from his mind about the things related to Xiangliu and the things about the seal. ”

Ruan Yu nodded slightly, then turned to the immortals, and said slowly: "When the old man is in the mortal world, it is good to read history, reading history can be clear, and you can touch the trajectory and context of the changes of things, which is actually very beneficial to your own cultivation. But since the ascension, I feel that there is chaos in front of me, and there are too few historical materials left by my predecessors, so it is difficult for me to find out the historical context of the immortals - for example, about the emperor's party, if Zhang Lu hadn't absorbed the memory of Changyi, I'm afraid we would never know......

"Why is this happening? It's very simple, there are no written history books, no historical materials. ”

The immortals did not have a written word, because most of the words they knew were inherited from the mortal world, and they were not common to each other, and no one had the mood or willingness to create a new kind of heavenly common writing. Although the language is not universal, the immortals can communicate through their minds, and they do not make a sound, so they do not care about language. In the three-dimensional world, immortals can directly understand the brainwaves that mortals instinctively release when they speak—that is, their thoughts—and they can also read their thoughts attached to words, but in the hyper-three-dimensional world, even if an immortal writes words by hand, other immortals cannot sense anything from those words, just some ordinary lines and patterns.

To put it simply, mortal language and writing are not encrypted, immortals do not need language, if they write words, they are naturally encrypted.

In addition, the vast majority of immortals live in seclusion, even if they want to leave words and record the history they know, not to mention whether other immortals can understand it (if they come from the same world or even the same tribe, they should be able to read), then someone has to be able to find these words. The size of the mortal world is limited, and the population is generally prosperous, even if a senior master hides in the inaccessible deep mountains and dense forests, leaving behind any secret exercises, the probability of being discovered in the end is greater than the probability of the immortal being found in the sky, which is tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of times.

So, why do I need to keep a written record? At most, I'll tell my fellow citizens what I know. If multiple immortals live together (such as marriage, and the heirs born from it), of course, it is possible to tell and teach them to their heart's content, but this possibility is too small, and the possibility of information diffusion and information inheritance caused by these few events is even more low.

I heard Ruan Yu continue: "When I joined our 'Dragon Slaying Team', there was relatively more communication between colleagues...... "Looking at Suo Tai and smiling slightly, "There are also some colleagues who have begun to consciously collect and synthesize information from all aspects. But this is far from enough, the old man thinks that this is also one of the reasons why the hearts of the people in heaven are uneven, like scattered sand, we have struggled for many years, and we have only made up more than 60 people.

"But now there's a great opportunity. Of course, when you are alive, you can't compete with each other and wantonly absorb the energy and thoughts of others, but after you fall, there will be no such obstacles. Although many people think that the death of immortals is as bright as the stars, there is nothing to fear, and there is nothing to be sad about, but the old man still has regrets - after death, the energy is returned to the universe, and the mind is scattered, so how many people will know what the old man has experienced in his life?"

He looked at Zhang Lu and smiled slightly: "Please, when the old man falls, please absorb the energy and thoughts of the old man at will." In this way, part of the old man's thoughts can be retained, and as for the energy, it can be regarded as the old man's reward to Mr. Zhang. Of course, Mr. Zhang also promises that when you fall, please continue to pass on your thoughts through your kind. ”

Zhang Lu hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Dare not obey your orders." ”

Lu Lingyin said with a smile: "I didn't expect the old gentleman to have this kind of obsession, but it violates the principle of being quiet and desireless." ”

Ruan Yu shook his head: "Your cultivation is about being pure and quiet, and our cultivation is about breaking desires, but what we have to abandon is only selfishness and selfish desires, the inheritance of ideas, historical accounts, this is something that is beneficial to the whole race, how can it be cut off? If we really have no desires and no desires, why do we want to ascend? Why do we want to slay dragons? Why do we seek to soar again?"

Lu Lingyin was just joking just now, and she didn't want Ruan Yu to put up such a big reason, so she had to smile and nod: "I've been taught." ”

"Mention things that are beneficial to the whole race," Ruan Yu's words were not finished, and he turned to Zhang Lu again, "It is said that Mr. Zhang also devoured a dragon, but what do you feel about this?"

Zhang Lu said that I naturally absorb the energy of the dragon clan and wait to digest it, which is no different from treating the fallen immortals, and as for the thoughts of the dragon clan, I can only vaguely have some impressions, but I can't use this to spy on the memories of the dragon clan - it's a pity.

"There's nothing to worry about," Ruan Yu said with a smile, "If you can really get the memories of the dragon clan, maybe you will be able to understand the dragon clan's survival philosophy, and then ...... I really want to reconcile the contradictions. The old man didn't say that the concept of the dragon clan was definitely untouchable and incomprehensible, and the contradictions between the two sides were absolutely irreconcilable, but ...... Under the premise that the concepts are too different, understanding may be painful, and reconciliation may lead to a dead end. The point is, you can devour the dragons, which may be a killer weapon in the battle against the dragons. Then he turned to Wei Qiang: "Mr. Wei is on the front line of the battle against the Dragon Clan, has he ever tried to use this technique to fight the Dragon Clan?"

Wei Qiang shook his head and said, "I haven't tried it yet...... Previously, we rarely acted alone, so we didn't dare to use it for fear of identity leakage. ”

Ruan Yu encouraged him: "You can give it a try." Then he looked around at the immortals again: "It is based on the above two reasons that the old man said-maybe it's a good thing." For example, even if the dagger is not in one's own hands, it is in the hands of colleagues after all, is it a bad thing? There is no need for such deep suspicion between us. ”

There was an immortal named King Shao, who had been sitting crookedly before, but suddenly stood up and asked Ruan Yu: "As the old gentleman said, it is a good thing that the earthlings have daggers in their arms, but if we are still empty-handed, we can't say that it is a good thing." ”

"Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, as long as they do their best and do their best. Do you who are fighting on the front line look down on our colleagues who stay in the rear, and who are not dangerous despite their hard work?"

"Not really," Shao Wang shook his head to explain, "and he doesn't care about personal interests. But please think about it, in the future, a large number of earthlings will fly up, and everyone will have daggers in their arms, while our fellow villagers will fly up, but they will still be empty-handed. ”

When Ruan Yu heard this, he was dumbfounded for a while. But then another immortal raised his hand, it was Chen Xuan, who belonged to the same "Xuanqi Realm" as Zhang Lu, and he said: "What Lao Shao said is reasonable, after all, the ability is the ability, not the skill, it is impossible to teach each other, and I will wait for the rest of my life, it is estimated that I will die empty-handed." However, for the younger Ascended Beings like us, this ability may not be unattainable......"

Shao Wang frowned: "How do you get it?"

"Marriage. ”[.]
