Chapter 282: Magical Secret Technique
As they spoke, the two of them had already entered the Divine Power Pavilion.
The attic is not big, there are only two floors, one is supernatural and the other is occult.
"The upstairs collection is all supernatural and solitary, and the downstairs is the secret art that has been analyzed over the years. The fat deer was reunited without a smile, put an oil lamp and withdrew.
Chen An didn't understand what "parsing out" meant, and his mind was only on the fat man's hidden strength. The more people forbear, the bigger the picture, this fat man only pretends to be an ordinary high-grade here, and he doesn't know what he wants to do.
But after thinking about it, maybe people are just born low-key, and the ultimate goal is to protect the inheritance of the Gaoyang clan, otherwise, if he is not an absolutely loyal person, how can it be his turn to manage such an important place as Chongxian Academy, and he is speculating here, isn't he a villain in vain.
He is really a conspiracy theorist, even if it is a good thing, he is thought of crookedly, Chen An shook his head and smiled, and then thought of the identity of the other party's supernatural person.
The first-rank supernatural and the first-grade mystical are not the same concept, and the supernatural power is different from the occult arts.
In ancient times, the way to heaven was the Taoist magic skill, and the supernatural power started as a technique; the Dao-level supernatural power is also called the Daluo supernatural power, which directly points to the core of the avenue, and only the great power can be used and displayed; the legal-level supernatural power is the great supernatural power that is commonly said, and the threshold for learning and using it must at least be a heavenly immortal; only the magical-level supernatural power called the small supernatural power can be mastered by mortals.
As for the secret arts, in the eyes of the supernatural powers, they are just some small tricks, and the strongest secret arts are only the skill level, which is just enough to meet the standards of small supernatural powers.
Therefore, a first-grade supernatural is often stronger than a first-grade mystic.
Of course, this is only the case in the usual sense, and in fact, when the soul card level reaches a high level, there is no longer a division between supernatural and mystic.
The physical strength of the high-grade secret magician can already reach the standard of cultivating supernatural powers under the nourishment of the high-grade soul card, and as for the supernatural person himself, he can also cultivate the secret art as an auxiliary, and most of the people in the Eastern Wilderness will not give up these two ways to improve themselves, so in the high-grade stage, the mystic is the supernatural one, and the supernatural one is the occult master.
However, there is still a restriction on mystical masters, that is, high-grade mystical masters can only choose supernatural cultivation with the same attributes as the secret arts they have mastered. And this restriction only exists for the Mystic, but it is useless for the Psychics.
Because the enhancement of the soul card to the mystic is only one aspect, the more important thing is the transformation of the mystician's body, and the transformation of it is more suitable for the secret art of that attribute. Using this kind of modified body to cultivate supernatural powers naturally requires a choice.
On the other hand, the supernatural powers are just the opposite, the strengthening is greater than the transformation, and their bodies fed by the supernatural powers are extremely strong, and of course they can cultivate secret techniques of any attribute.
Although this difference is subtle, it does exist, Chen An couldn't help but go through the many pros and cons he knew in his mind, and decisively gave up the idea of reading from downstairs, and went directly to the second floor.
The second floor is not big, but there are seven or eight bookshelves, it is more appropriate to say that it is a bookshelf than a shelf, because it is not all books, but more strange utensils, such as bronze tripods, three-legged gold bottles, purple gold jade bottles, white jade wrenches, pearl and jade necklaces, silver bracelets...... And so on, from storage utensils to jewelry, makeup, and so on.
Chen An seems to have come to an antique grocery store, but he knows that these things seem strange, but they are really things that carry supernatural powers, and many supernatural powers point directly to the underworld, which cannot be spoken, cannot be written, only the artistic conception remains, giving people a sense of understanding.
He came to a bookshelf, avoided the strange artifact, and pulled a book out of it.
The supernatural powers recorded in books themselves mean simple, but when you learn, you will naturally go from shallow to deep. When he turned the pages of the book, he also proved this assertion, this book called "Extreme Golden Fall", by absorbing some materials and ores, forging the body into steel and iron bones, it seems to be extraordinary, but in fact it is not enough garbage. However, all supernatural powers can basically be released and collected, and whether or not this supernatural power can be released or not will definitely affect the practitioner's improvement in other aspects, which may be much worse than ordinary secret arts.
Flipping through another copy of "The True Solution of Fire Control", Chen An completely gave up the books on the shelves and instead aimed at other bamboo slips. The supernatural powers that can be described in words are not clever, but the ancient supernatural powers recorded with bamboo slips are definitely stronger than the dross derived from later generations and recorded in thread-bound books, which is a little precaution that Shen Lin gave him before he came here.
So he touched the bamboo slip, but when he unfolded it and looked at it carefully, he was embarrassed to find that it was actually an ancient seal script.
In the Great Zhou, as a secret agent of the Secret Division, Chen An was familiar with various dialects and even the written language of Yidi, and after arriving in Daqian, because he did not have this condition, he only studied some written languages in Kunlun Academy once.
Although it includes ancient seal scripts, it is only a shallow cognition, and it is still a little difficult to read and understand. An ancient seal text was in front of him, and he could roughly understand the meaning of it even with a guess, but if he wanted to comprehend the supernatural powers, he couldn't.
Looking beyond the bamboo slips, and then looking at other utensils, I feel more helpless, if I want to understand the true meaning of the above, we must read and understand the inscriptions on the armor, Qianwen, and Huangwen, which are older than the ancient seal script, as well as the ghost-like inscriptions.
It doesn't feel good to enter Baoshan empty-handed, and this situation is just because of ignorance, so how can Chen An be willing. He stepped forward and groped around with all these artifacts regardless of it, expecting that the plot of the novel would appear, and he could bypass these difficult characters and directly perceive them. But the reality was cruel, and he didn't have the slightest miracle except for some wonderful rhymes.
In desperation, he could only set his sights on those thread-bound books again.
The artifacts and antiques are preserved from ancient times, and the Gao Yang clan is only used for collection, and these books are the magical powers that the ancestors of the Gao Yang clan have realized from the artifacts and antiques, although the difference is not a grade, but in the end it has become a system.
Let's understand this system first, and look at the definition and jurisprudence of supernatural powers, looking back, it seems that I really have to stay in this Qingfu City for a short time to learn various ancient characters.
Thinking like this, Chen An took a random copy of the thread-bound book and glanced at the name, "Shadowing"
After flipping through it roughly, he found that it was a kind of supernatural ability that could turn into a shadow, which was far worse than his floating light glimpse technique. It's just that his Floating Light Glimpse Technique has to be combined with the magic of the Three Swords, and the true meaning of the Eastern Wilderness Continent is distorted by the evil qi, and it can't be used at all, even if he relies on his strong body and forcibly casts it, at most it is a good combat skill, and the effect is estimated to be not even comparable to ordinary secret arts.
Raising his hand to close the book and put it down, he was about to read the next one, when a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his heart, and after a little groaning, he reflexively walked downstairs.
The downstairs of the Divine Power Pavilion was quiet, there was no one, Lu Wu had already left to be busy with his own affairs, and no one else came here.
This is also because there are too few people who can cultivate supernatural powers, except for some elders of high-grade secret masters, even the children of the family who can sense the existence of Qi will not easily come here to cultivate supernatural powers, but first lay the foundation and improve their physical fitness, so as to better cultivate supernatural powers.
Although the supernatural power can feed back to the body, but if you can't even carry the initial bearing, it is also given in vain, and you can only practice life and death.
As for the people who are cultivating supernatural powers, they rarely come here, firstly, they are greedy and can't chew too much, and secondly, even if they do, the exercise of the body will occupy seventy or eighty percent of the usual cultivation time, and only two or three percent of the time will be used to cultivate supernatural powers, which is the most reasonable cultivation method summed up by the people of the Eastern Wilderness for thousands of years.
Of course, the Divine Power Pavilion will not be silent forever, among the foreign mining slaves, there are some cultivators with a solid martial arts foundation, they are as strong as Chen An's physical fitness, and they can carry the divine power without deliberate exercise, but the Gao Yang Clan has not yet screened and absorbed them completely, and it will take a while to excessively, but in the future, there is no doubt that the Divine Power Pavilion will be open to them, and Chen An is only a rehearsal now.
Chen An felt that this rehearsal was quite good, and now the entire Divine Power Pavilion belonged to him alone.
He went up and down the stairs a few times, extracted some books worth watching from the secret arts, and then screened some things he wanted to learn from the supernatural powers, held them together, and carefully compared. found that the same level of magic, there is basically no difference between supernatural powers and secret arts, and secret arts are even called supernatural powers.
The main difference between them is that the arcane arts are used for support, and the supernatural powers are used for combat. And this definition is also gradually blurred when the secret art reaches a high level, and some auxiliary secret arts are strong enough to be used in frontal combat.
Now the only thing that can distinguish between secret arts and supernatural powers may be that secret arts need to be prepared, and supernatural powers are like a kind of innate ability that people have, and they can be used directly.
Tracing back to the origin, the supernatural powers come from the ancient beasts, which are their innate abilities, and people analyze them through the art of sealing souls, so that people can master and perform them through learning. But there is still a big gap between what you can learn and what you are born with, so there is a secret technique.
Therefore, if you are familiar with the secret arts, you can't call it a supernatural power.
From the point of view of casting, many large-scale secret techniques require the assistance of various materials and even the cooperation of rituals to be performed, and the supernatural power replaces the material consumption and ritual arrangement through the body's internal qi and blood energy and body movements, which is very convenient, but it is also extremely demanding on one's own physical fitness, no wonder the cultivation of supernatural power has such high requirements for talent.
Just a simple comparison, seeing so many things, Chen An couldn't help but excitedly want to continue researching, but suddenly he thought of another question, isn't this thing discovered by no one in the Eastern Wilderness? Then why should there be a distinction between supernatural and secret techniques?
