Chapter Twenty-Eight: Forty-Nine Superb Lotus
At the exit of the passage, a three-foot square stone platform comes into view, the stone platform is suspended in the air, only one side is connected to the passage, and in front of the stone platform, there is an empty super large cave!
"Xiaofan, the boundary mountain in your hometown is actually hollow!" sighed Politics.
Luo Fan was also shocked, the hollow mountain range also gave birth to a boundary water, which is rare in the world!
Under the stone platform, about ten zhang or so, the rolling magma is pouring around, the magma is about 100 zhang square, and from time to time there are bubbles rising from the bottom of the magma, each cracked bubble seems to bring a rolling heat wave, and the space on the surface of the magma seems to be broken.
Above the stone platform, there was endless mist, and strangely, there was no fog near the stone platform, and everyone stood on the stone platform, and all the scenery in front of them was in full view!
In the middle of the magma and the fog, there is a space of about 20 zhang up and down, there is neither heat wave nor fog, and a plant actually floats in the air!
This plant, from the appearance of a blooming lotus flower, has nine roots, nine lotus leaves, and the lotus pod and lotus flower exist at the same time! The slender roots are firmly rooted in the magma, but there is no lotus root in sight.
The whole lotus flower plus the roots, firmly occupy the space of 20 zhang up and down, and the lotus flower emits a misty light, isolating the mist above and the heat wave below!
"It's... This... What is this?" looked at the strange scene in front of her, Xi'er was dumbfounded.
"I don't know!" everyone shook their heads.
"Alas!" Liuyun sighed, "I knew that I wouldn't have gone back with you to let Qiu Feng go back, Qiu Feng is still very reliable in terms of knowledge." β
"Rub, now I know I regret it?" said Autumn Wind's swaggering tone from inside the passage.
"The autumn wind is coming!" Liuyun's face inadvertently showed a hint of joy, but everyone didn't notice it in the slightest, Liuyun quietly looked at everyone, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"You little bastards, you don't let me worry!" said King Ming's voice as well.
Soon, the figures of King Ming, Luo Shan, and Qiu Feng appeared at the entrance of the passage, and Luo Fan and the others hurriedly gave a salute.
"Xiao Fan!" Luo Shan said with a calm face, "You are too impatient, you should come over together after we come!"
"Yes, father. Luo Fan obediently bowed his head and said, "I didn't expect it to go straight to the belly of the mountain, does my father know what this is?"
"If you don't get out of the way, let's look at the yarn!" muttered Autumn Wind.
Everyone hurriedly let people have a passage, King Ming and Luo Shan were also surprised when they saw this scene, only the autumn wind,
"Rub it! This... This..."
"If you know what it is, say it quickly, and show what you want!" King Ming scolded impatiently.
"I've seen this in an ancient book. Qiu Fengqiang calmed down and recalled, "The name of this thing is very long, the full name is Nine Roots, Nine Leaves, Nine Petals, Nine Sons, Building the Foundation and Enabling the Breaking Rank to Enhance the Treasure Lotus, also known as the Four Nine Almighty Superb Lotus." As the name suggests, the first four words are used to describe its characteristics. You see, it has nine roots, nine lotus leaves, and if you look closely at its lotus petals, there are nine petals, and its lotus flower and lotus canopy coexist, and the lotus canopy has nine holes and nine sons. That's why it's called nine roots, nine leaves, nine petals, and nine sons. The middle four words are to describe its function, which can build a foundation, and children can cultivate on their own before the age of eight after the foundation is built, without the support of a master. After the age of eight, the foundation is more solid, and there is no need to worry about rapid improvement. Empowerment means that it can enhance people's talents, which is actually spiritual power. Breaking the rank refers to the cultivation that can easily achieve the primary, intermediate, and high-level cultivation of various levels, and the promotion refers to the ability to help the monk upgrade, such as the Yuan Shi to the Yuan Master, the Yuan Master to the Yuan King, and even the above Yuan Zun and Yuan Emperor, so it is called almighty!"
With the explanation of the autumn wind, everyone carefully observed this superb Baolian, and sure enough, it was exactly the same as what the autumn wind said, and everyone looked at the autumn wind with urgency and eagerness.
Qiu Feng waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Don't look at me, I just know what this thing is!" It is said that this kind of treasure lotus grows once every 10,000 years, that is, every 10,000 years it grows a root and a lotus leaf, and it takes 90,000 years for lotus flowers and lotus canopies to develop, and lotus flowers and lotus canopies also need 90,000 years to grow nine petals and nine lotus seeds. β
"In that case, doesn't it mean that it is 180,000 years old, but the history of our continent is less than 100,000 years!" Xiao Cai exclaimed.
"The continent is only less than 100,000 years old, strictly speaking, 60,000 years ago, after the emperor made up the sky and established the Qingyun Empire, the continent began to determine the historical records, 60,000 years ago was just a legend, so no one can say how many years of history the continent has, but it will definitely exceed 100,000 years. Xiao Fan's exercises and yuan weapons are not all owned on the continent now, so there should be a prehistoric period on the continent, but it is not known to us!" King Ming said in a low voice.
"Qiu Feng, how do you use this Baolian?" asked Tian Tian weakly.
"It's very simple, if it's less than 180,000 years old, we can only watch dryly, because the Yuan Power contained in it is extremely manic, and it is not something we can absorb at all, but once it reaches 180,000 years, the Yuan Power contained in it is extremely docile, just pick it off and eat it. Its Yuan Power helps us either build a foundation or improve, and after the ascension is completed, it will not affect our continued cultivation, and the unconsumed Yuan Power will help us continue to use it in the next or next level. β
"That's good, that's nonsense, let's go pick it up!" Tutu said excitedly.
"Rub it, the key is that I don't know how to pick it!" Qiu Feng said with a wry smile.
"Look!" Liuyun suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the side of the cave entrance, "There are a few lines here!"
Everyone hurriedly looked, on the stone wall on the side of the cave entrance, the dragon flying and the phoenix danced with a few lines of small characters, and Batian involuntarily said, "I am Xuanfeng, a person from Jiezhen, a few years ago, more than 300 years old was promoted to Yuanzun, homesick, and returned to Jiezhen, but unfortunately things are not human." I found this cave by chance, practiced for more than a few years, and inadvertently found this passage, and saw this Baolian, although I don't know what it is, but it is absolutely extraordinary. I wanted to pick it, but the yuan power in my body suddenly lost control, and I died of writing to warn future generations. β
"Brother Xiaofan, this person can't be Xuan Feng, whose whereabouts are unknown after being promoted to Yuanzun fifty years ago, right?" Xi'er suddenly shouted.
"If nothing else, it should be him. Luo Fan subconsciously replied.
"According to my observation, this thing has not yet matured, and it should be fifty years before it can be, but it is a pity that I am greedy and do not notice it for a while, and it will eventually cause great disaster. The descendants are destined to be the same as the villagers of the boundary town, and they must be carefully observed, do not pick directly, and do not destroy the balance of magma and fog..... Xuanfeng was written in the 69,932nd year of the mainland calendar. Batian read it directly in one breath.
Everyone was silent, and they no longer dared to have any thoughts about Baolian at this time.
"According to my understanding. Luo Fan saw that everyone was a little low, and said, "This year is the sixty-nine thousand nine hundred and eighty-three years of the mainland calendar, more than fifty years have passed, combined with the last words of Xuanfeng's predecessors and what Qiu Feng said, this thing should have matured, and we have not felt the fury of Yuan Li, on the contrary, now you can feel that Yuan Li is extremely docile." β
Hearing Luo Fan's words, everyone quickly sensed it and nodded one after another.
"So," Luo Fan further said, "what we have to consider is how to maintain the balance of magma and mist, so that once the Baolian is removed, it will cause an imbalance of magma and mist, which will cause a catastrophe to the boundary town." Autumn Wind, is there a record in the ancient books you read before?"
"Rub!" exclaimed the Autumn Wind Monster, "I just glanced at it at the time, how could I have thought that we would meet again?" Besides, if I remember correctly, the ancient book only described this Baolian a little, and did not mention its growth environment or picking requirements at all. β
"Probably," King Ming muttered, "......I can only let Menghan come here." β
"Not bad!" Luo Shan said, "Our cultivation is still too low, a Yuan Zun, just because he absorbed a little Yuan Force, he died here, and the Yuan King is not enough." β
"That's right!" King Ming continued, "Menghan is more than thirty years old and has achieved Yuanzun, and he is already a hot genius in the mainland, otherwise he would not be able to control the Elders' Council and the Shattered Star Academy at such an age, without further ado, Qiu Feng, you go back and ask Menghan to come over." β
"Rub!" the autumn breeze is gone, "why am I again?"
"If you want to go, you will go!" the crowd said in unison.
Qiu Feng was helpless, turned around and left, and everyone looked at Baolian in the air and was silent.
After a while, Meng Han and Qiu Feng had already arrived, looking at Baolian in the air, looking at the magma below and the endless mist above, Meng Han fell into deep thought, and everyone did not dare to speak, for fear of disturbing Meng Han's train of thought.
After a long time, Meng Han stroked his palm and smiled, "Qiu Feng has already told me the general situation before I came, plus my own observations, I think, have you fallen into a misunderstanding?"
"What misunderstanding?" everyone asked, shocked.
"You don't want to take the whole of Baolian away, do you?" Meng Han asked.
"Isn't it?" Tutu said in surprise, "Nine roots, nine leaves, nine petals, and nine sons, it's very domineering when you hear the name, these parts must be useful, why don't you take them all away?"
"Then I can't help it, I estimate that once I do it, a few of us won't even be able to get out of the mountain, and the entire Jiezhen will never exist. β
Menghan laughed.
"So what?" asked Decepticon.
"Obviously, your greed is not much better than Xuanfeng!" Menghan said politely, "According to my meaning, if you only take the nine sons, it is already a fluke!"
"Menghan, you can make it clear, if you only take the nine sons, won't it affect the balance here?" asked King Ming further.
"I'm just speculating that Qiu Feng said that this Baolian plant generates one leaf every 10,000 years, and nine roots and nine leaves in 90,000 years. Then every 10,000 years, a petal and a child are formed, so that it takes 180,000 years to mature. "Then the question is, is there an imbalance between magma and fog here before this thing matures?"
"Thisβ" The crowd fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, Luo Fan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Master, do you mean that this thing now occupies a space of dozens of zhang, if we just take away the nine sons, this space may shrink, but the balance still exists?"
"It's still Xiaofan smart!" Meng Han praised.
"Wonderful!" everyone suddenly realized, Xiao should be excited, "Then what are you waiting for?
"No hurry, no hurry!" Meng Han smiled, "Not yet." β
