Chapter 234: Ancestral Temple
The name of the ancestral temple is the same as that of the ancestral temple in Zushan City, is it the same?
Of course, Fan Wu would not feel that the two were the same place so easily, but he suspected that there might be some connection, the geographical location was the same, and the name was the same, but it was not the same in terms of appearance or feeling.
Fan Wu's original intention of coming to Zushan City this time was to see if the statues in the ancestral temple were still there, but he didn't expect to come here and become like this.
Judging from the layout of all the buildings here, Fan Wu even wondered if this was the ancient Zushan City, although he didn't seem to have heard of such a long history in Zushan, but it was probably just his own loneliness.
It may be that the ancestral mountain was like this in ancient times, but if this is the case, then who changed the ancestral mountain back to its original state? and at this time of the invasion of hell.
The key is that Fan Wu still seemed to have seen the prosperous scene of the ancestral mountain in the past just now, and under his repeated confirmation, he determined that the one just now was definitely not an illusion, it was a real scene, but it was not in the time and space where he was.
As for why he was able to see it, Fan Wu really didn't have any thoughts about these problems in time and space, and he didn't know what the reason would be.
I knew that I should have gone deeper into that lively Zushan City just now, and I shouldn't have quit so quickly, and after I exited, I would never be able to enter the Zushan in that time and space again.
However, Fan Wu didn't have any entanglement, he just felt a little pity, maybe he could find the answer to some things in Zushan City in another time and space.
In fact, after experiencing so many things, Fan Wu already had some doubts about time and space, and he had always felt that the concept of time was a longitudinal axis, and he would not come back after the past.
But after traveling through so many worlds, he realized that the truth was not necessarily this way, or not exactly that.
Sometimes I even think that it is possible that the axis of time is horizontal, not absolutely gone, or I can make a bold guess whether time has never flowed at all.
In fact, everyone has been in the same axis, just constantly shuttling through one space after another, so I think time has passed.
Of course, these are all carried out under the premise of the rules of heaven and earth, so there is basically no confusion or mistakes, everyone is in the same world, moving under the same horizon.
That's why it appears that the speed of time in each world is different, didn't it be said that there was a day in the sky and a year on the earth? Could it be that the speed of the transition scene between the two worlds is different?
For example, if one day is used as the basic unit of a scene, the people in the world are much busier than the immortals in the sky, because the time for changing a scene above has been turned 356 times in the world, how tiring!
Fan Wu didn't know if the timeline of these places in the underworld or the netherworld was the same as the human world, but it didn't seem that there were any documents and legends that said about this problem, and it was estimated that even if it was different, the difference would not be too much.
There should be a lot of people who can shuttle from all walks of life, and Fan Wu himself has returned from shuttling through several worlds, but this kind of travel is not a journey through the timeline at all.
If the conjecture of changing scenes is true, then the ability to travel through scenes is the real power of time, but if you think about it from another angle, isn't it the power of space?
Being able to break through space in the same world is actually equivalent to breaking through the cage of time, and Fan Wu's previous encounters are actually a bit of a passing by this concept.
If he can have the ability to place himself in those images when he looks at them, he is tantamount to going to the past across time and space.
But thinking about it, it is estimated that there should be a lot of people in the cultivation world who can figure out this truth, but let's not talk about whether it is difficult or not, there is no clue about this at all, and no one knows how to do it.
Fan Wu couldn't do anything about it either, but he had more experience than the others, had traveled to several worlds, and he had mastered a certain amount of spatial ability, although until now it could only be used for attacks.
But compared to others, Fan Wu has gone a lot faster, and he already has the concept of space and time, and now it is just a chance to implement.
If he was allowed to see the images of the past again, he might try to enter, originally Fan Wu had no intention of doing so, but the scene of entering the ancestral mountain gate for the first time just now made him suddenly have a little understanding.
That's why he thought of this possibility, he didn't know where his cultivation direction should go all along, the way of Xi Xi was just the basis of cultivation, not a specific move, if he could master the trick of time or space, it would be a powerful means of attack.
Of course, at this stage, Fan Wu didn't have any cultivation methods in this area and didn't get any guidance, so he just relied on himself to grope around, and he didn't know when he would be able to get something.
Fortunately, Fan Wu's mentality has always been relatively peaceful and indifferent, these things don't have any particularly tangled emotions, but they just happened to have an understanding, so they thought about it more.
Fan Wu, who was standing in front of the ancestral temple, wanted to push the door in, but the small temple door didn't react, even if Fan Wu used a lot of strength.
Strange, if it's just an ordinary temple door, how can it be so difficult to open? Fan Wu retreated a few times and didn't open it, so he naturally used the energy in his body, and his energy has now all been turned into the power of thunder and lightning, although the thunder dragon can't use thunder and lightning-related skills in his body, but the energy attribute is indeed thunder and lightning.
Therefore, there was naturally a trace of electricity in the energy, and when his palm with the power of thunder and lightning touched the temple door, there was a violent reaction.
The entire temple door suddenly became translucent, and then slowly opened under the stimulation of the slightest electric current, and Fan Wu could already see the scene inside the ancestral temple.
He greeted Lei Long and stepped into the temple, the ancestral temple looked like a normal inner city from the outside, but after recently, he found that it was exactly the same as the ancestral temple that Fan Wu saw in modern times.
It's just that the buildings, supplies and other things inside are more antique, and the appearance is similar to those renovated things in the modern ancestral temple, but the temperament is far from the same.
This place gave Fan Wu the feeling of being a sacred place of mysterious dignity, although the things in it were all used in ordinary temples, and there were no tall facilities.
But it feels like a place that is completely different from the outside world, even if it is a simple brick and tile, it is not contemptuous, Fan Wu doesn't know where this feeling comes from, it is natural to feel like this.
But while feeling mysterious and dignified, I also feel that there seems to be a trace of familiarity here, but this familiar feeling is more ethereal and has not been implemented.
It's a bit like a wanderer who has been away all the year round and suddenly smells a little bit of hometown somewhere, and he doesn't know where he came from or what it is, but he just feels a little familiar.
Fan Wu is this feeling now, but he is not bothered by this feeling, after entering the door is a patio that is not too big, and then he has to pass through a small archway to officially enter the inside of the temple.
There is a banyan tree in the middle of the patio, the banyan tree is not very tall, but the canopy is large, and it has almost taken up two-thirds of the entire patio, but because the banyan tree does not have many leaves, it does not block much light, and it feels quite bright here.
This is a fine-leaved banyan tree, the banyan tree that should be leafy looks bare and desolate, the branches are normal, and there are not many signs of decay, but there are too few leaves.
Fan Wu looked up at the situation on the top of the tree, only a few branches on the top were still scattered leaves, and there were more branches than leaves at a glance.
In fact, it's not that there are more branches, this is unlikely, Fan Wu roughly counted the leaves here, there are really not a lot, and it is only about 100 pieces when it is full.
What is the specific number Fan Wu didn't count them one by one, but he seemed to have a natural answer in his heart, it was 108 pieces, how did this number come about, Fan Wu didn't dig deeper, anyway, this number suddenly popped up in his heart, and he didn't suspect anything.
I just think this number is too much of a coincidence, 108 seems to be a relatively common and commonly used number in the cultivation world, whether it is Buddhism or Taoism or any other sect, it seems that 108 is respected.
Whether it is the cultivation method or the magic weapons used, ghost weapons and other things, it seems that this number cannot be avoided, and the money sword used by the fat man in the past seems to be 108 is the most powerful.
The banyan tree I saw here in the ancestral temple today actually has exactly 108 leaves left, what is the meaning of this?
Fan Wu actually didn't have any concept of these, mainly because he didn't have a door or a faction, and he couldn't get in touch with these so-called magic tools and other things at all, and of course he wouldn't have a sense of the numbers 36, 72, and 108.
However, this is not necessarily a bad thing, he can only improve his true strength without relying on external objects, so Fan Wu's strength has improved so quickly, although he himself does not think so, but in the eyes of other cultivators, this is already the speed of a rocket.
What Fan Wu saw under the banyan tree was an ordinary tree, there was nothing special about it at all, but he always felt that something was wrong, and this tree gave him a general feeling that was a bit like the garden in the black prison.
It's a bit like the lotus flower in the pond where the paper Bodhisattva is located, although these are two different plant species, but Fan Wu just thinks that they are similar, they are all the same sacred.
This is quite strange, obviously different places and different varieties, how can they have the same feeling? Fan Wu stroked the old bark of the banyan tree with his hand, it was a little prickly, and it was a little painful!
