Chapter 40: Yao Zu's Paintings
In a sense, this is reasonable, from the three generations of the "Immortal Stone" of the Ancient Witch Sect to the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" of the Daomen, it is definitely not a one-step process, and a lot of experiments must have been carried out in the middle, constantly finding out the problems, constantly improving the problems, until they succeed.
Qi Xuansu's journey in the Lingshan Cave Heaven reproduced this process to a certain extent.
Samples of longevity stones in different directions, different periods, and different functions have almost all become a series of longevity stones.
Throughout the series, his early works have a strong and obvious style of the Eight Sect Plans, that is, with the "Three Refinements" as the core, the three Yin Objects are the pinnacle products corresponding to the "Three Refinements", and the "Three Refinements" are combined with Shinto means, which is the "Emperor Shakti". Among them, the "Ten Thousand Corpses Mighty Venerable", which is not damaged, is the first of the three major yin things.
The early immortal stone test specimens had an obvious style of refining corpses, such as usually being asleep, and after being touched and disturbed, there would be a phenomenon of "corpses", whether it was the Taiyin corpse or the remains of these female Taoist priests.
In addition, there is another feature, that is, *** vertical.
According to the records of the Taoist classics, the predecessor of the creation project, the Eight Departments Project, can be divided into two periods.
The first period is the period dominated by the pavilion soap road, which can also be regarded as the predecessor, the three major yin things are the pinnacle products of this stage, and the three semi-finished yin things will be manipulated artificially, but the three major yin things in the whole body are intelligent, and they are independent individuals in a certain sense, and their essence at this time is to obey orders like people, rather than accept the control of marionettes.
The second period is the period dominated by Xu Zu, and the real Eight Divisions, from the "Yakshatra" to the "Emperor Shakti", the latter is the pinnacle masterpiece of this stage. However, unlike the Three Yin Things, although the strength of the "Emperor Shakti" is stronger than the Three Yin Things, it is more like a half-finished Three Yin Things, without sanity, like a puppet, and is artificially manipulated.
Of course, this was intentional on the part of Xu Zu, who was too conceited and believed in himself to personally control the "Emperor Shakti". It's a pity that not long after the success of "Emperor Shakti", Xu Zu entered the Kunlun Cave Heaven, which had not yet landed at that time, and after a series of accidents, he soared in the Kunlun Cave Heaven, and failed to control the "Emperor Shakti", but cheapened the later generation Xuan Sheng.
The inheritor of Xu Zu's attainments in creation is not Shangguan Dishi, but Yao Zu. On the basis of the Eight Ministries Project, led by Yao Zu, a wider range of creation projects were launched.
The Creation Project not only inherited the Eight Sects Project, but also inherited the medicine stones of the Ancient Witch Sect, the Mo family's organs, the Dan Dao of the Daomen, etc., and the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is only one of the branches.
Qi Xuansu has always had a suspicion, or a worry, that the "Immortal Stone" of the Ancient Witch Sect will certainly not control the host, but will the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" fused with the Eight Sects plan leave some kind of "back door"? If necessary, the host of the Heart of the Immortal Stone can be manipulated in the same way that the Emperor Shakti is manipulated.
None is best, if there is such a possibility, then Qi Xuansu must find a solution, he does not want to be a pawn in any sense.
This is also the fundamental purpose of Qi Xuansu's insistence on coming to Lingshan Cave to find out.
This is the main contradiction, if you become someone else's puppet, then whether it is an immortal, a big master, or even an immortal, it is all about making wedding dresses for others, it is meaningless.
This is also why Qi Xuansu didn't suspect Qi Niang, because the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" was not refined by Qi Niang - Qi Niang didn't have such a great ability, she was not the producer of the "Heart of the Immortal Stone", she was just the porter of the "Heart of the Immortal Stone".
Maybe Qi Niang doesn't know the mystery of this. The layout of some big people is just no trace, it seems to be a coincidence, but it is actually inevitable. People in the game, no matter what the starting point is, the ending will always go in the direction designed in advance by the person who laid it out, and they will become chess pieces without knowing it.
In every sense, Qi Xuansu is not a stupid person, he will not wait until the last moment to suddenly find that everything is arranged by someone, and when he finds it, it is irretrievable, like a clown in a Western circus.
Qi Xuansu has come to this point, although he has the support of nobles and six points of luck, but three points of true ability is also a must
Indispensable. Therefore, he should take precautions and prevent problems before they happen.
Qi Xuansu squatted down and reached out to hold this stone heart—let's call it the heart of stone, it was obvious that these stone hearts were not yet the word "immortal".
The implantation of the heart of the stone is a system, such as a net all over the body, and digging the heart is actually the uprooting of the entire network system. However, compared with the Taiyin corpse, the resistance of these female Taoist corpses is much weaker, if the former is like uprooting the weeping willow, then the latter is pulling weeds, which is not the same.
Qi Xuansu easily dug out the heart of the stone and held it in his hand to look at it.
Qi Jiaoyao also came over - she hadn't seen the "Immortal Stone" yet, the prototype of the Taiyin Corpse's Immortal Stone self-destructed, whether it was Chen Shuhua, the Golden Horde, or even the Ten Witches of Lingshan, the Enlightened Six Witches, etc., they were all stories from other people's mouths, and Chen Shuhua's story had just been heard. Although these stone hearts are not the real "Hearts of Immortal Stones", they are a little bit of a side.
In this regard, Qi Xuansu can be said to be half an expert. He wanted to be sure of one thing now, if these Stone Hearts could play a manipulative role.
The Taiyin corpse is essentially a "Great Asura" implanted with the prototype of the Immortal Stone, and the "Great Asura" from the Eight Tribes Project itself can be *** vertical, and it is difficult to judge whether the characteristics of *** vertical come from the "Great Asura" or from the prototype of the Immortal Stone.
The remains of these female Taoists are different, they have nothing to do with the Eight Tribes Project, and are completely driven by the Heart of Stone.
Now the question is, how to verify?
Qi Xuansu can refine these stone hearts and make them his own creations, the key is to implant them in whose body to verify, now he and Qi Jiaoyao are two people, he has been implanted with the genuine "Heart of Immortal Stone", it can't be implanted in Qi Jiaoyao's body, not to mention whether it is suitable or not, Qi Jiaoyao will definitely not agree.
Qi Jiaoyao suddenly felt that Qi Xuansu's eyes were a little wrong, and he subconsciously took two steps back: "What do you want to do?"
Qi Xuansu said, "Qi Daoyou, since Yao Zu once transformed the remains of the Heavenly Master Sect female Taoist here, then this place won't look so simple, right?"
"Reasonable." Qi Jiaoyao nodded and said, "Yao Zu should be transformed on the spot, not specially transported to this place after being transformed in other places, these stone hearts are not a big deal, at most they are semi-finished products, or even defective products, there is no need for this."
Qi Xuansu proposed, "Let's look again, maybe there will be a special place that is hidden."
Qi Jiaoyao always had great enthusiasm for treasure hunting, so he naturally agreed.
This kind of thing, in fact, is not a big problem, the key is to have a heart or not, if you don't think about it, there is nothing abnormal, but once you get into the heart, you can always find clues.
Qi Jiaoyao soon discovered something unusual, in a place similar to a hall, she waved her hand to set off a gust of wind, sweeping away the dust on the ground, revealing her true face.
An intricate formation was drawn on the ground, dim.
However, Qi Jiaoyao didn't find the mechanism to open the formation, not even the jack of the secret key.
On the other side, Qi Xuansu also discovered that he actually found a portrait of Yao Zu in a corner.
Most of the portraits of Oriental people are in scroll mode, while Westerners like to add a frame, and this portrait is quite Western-style.
In fact, Yao Zu is not completely equivalent to Wu Xian, the dead Wu Xian was reborn through Yao Zu, and the two fused and influenced each other. Not to mention that the reason why Wu Xian died was because she personally tested the medicine and caused her to fall into madness, and her temperament changed drastically, so that the chief wizard of the wise world did not even know that she had changed into elbows and armpits, and finally backstabbed her four good sisters and was buried in the Valley of the Netherworld.
Therefore, Yao Zu in the painting is not as majestic and stable as Wu Xian, but with a bit of frivolity and cynicism, but quite a bit of Wu Yang's style.
Wuyang, as the only great witch in the Dao Sect who recognizes and allows public sacrifices, Wuxia, Wushan, and Shennu Peak are her dojos, and Qi Xuansu is of course familiar with them.
When it came to Wuyang, Qi Xuansu suddenly felt that Yao Zu's action was a little familiar, and he remembered it after carefully recalling it for a while, he had seen the murals of the eleven witches in the Wuzhen dungeon, and the ten witches of Lingshan were sitting
Behind a long table, only Wu Yang stands on the edge of the picture leaning on the legs.
At first glance, Yao Zu in the painting appears to be leaning against a wall, but from another angle, the so-called wall may also be the leg of a particularly tall table.
After a slight hesitation, Qi Xuansu reached out and touched the picture, and found that the picture in the frame was like a sliding door, which could be moved left and right, without showing the whole picture, and some of the pictures were hidden outside the frame.
Qi Xuansu immediately moved the picture to the left with his hand, and the image of Yao Zu moved away and disappeared outside the frame, and a long table appeared in the frame, just like the murals in the dungeon, behind the long table were the Ten Witches of Lingshan who gathered around the "Immortal Stone".
The picture in the frame can only accommodate one great witch, and it is not possible to see the whole picture, and the ten witches have different images, some are gluttonous and full of greed, and some of their faces are hidden in the shadows, strange and dark.
Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment, and finally moved Wu Xian to the frame.
In the mural, Wu Xian is sitting in the middle of the long table, in the center of the entire mural. And there is also a little implication in this, Yao Zu and Wu Xian are one and the same, and they are like two sides, one symbolizes closing the door and the other symbolizes opening the door.
Just after Qi Xuansu did this, the magic circle on Qi Jiaoyao's side changed, every node, every line, was lit up in turn, and when the magic circle was completely lit up, a "Yin Yang Gate" appeared above the magic circle out of thin air.
Qi Xuansu came to Qi Jiaoyao's side and looked at the "Yin Yang Gate".
Qi Jiaoyao smiled brightly, like a thief who discovered the treasure house and opened the door to the treasure house.
