Canglan Chapter 4

04. Transparent stone

The Faculty of Letters, as the "inner courtyard" of Canglan, not only collects various secret classics of Canglan, but also is responsible for various important tasks such as postgraduate entrance examinations and historical sites, and exploration of secret techniques.

Xingliuyun and his group of 7 people crossed the huge circular library and entered a room marked "27", the room was very spacious, and the 7 people went in without being crowded at all.

There were only a few bookshelves in this room, three tables, nine chairs, and nothing else. Among them, the most conspicuous is a transparent stone on one of the tables.

This "transparent stone" is only the size of an adult's fist, and there is a black part inside, which changes shape from time to time, and the whole thing, like amber, gives the illusion of glittering brilliance.

Seven people walked towards the "transparent stone", which was what they were going to study today.

As we got closer, the transparent part became more and more imperceptible, and it seemed that only this unknown film noir was left in front of people.

"What is this?" Xingliuyun couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know, we've been studying it for years and have found almost nothing. Eighth Senior Brother Ji Mingzhe said.

"Can you touch it?" Xingliuyun asked.

"Yes, I haven't found it harmful. ”

After receiving the answer, Xingliuyun cautiously stretched out his hand to touch the "transparent stone", and the other seven people also stared at it intently, although it had not been in danger before, but it was always just in case.

Not far from the noir film, Xing Liuyun's hand was blocked, and it was the unknown transparent part, which was transparent, but it was real.

"Huh?" Xingliuyun directly held the "transparent stone", felt it carefully, and said, "There is no touch, as if there is nothing." ”

"Yes, that's what we know now, and according to speculation, this transparent substance seems to represent 'nothing', something that is so low in energy that it is almost nothing. Zhang Yuebin said on the side.

"It's a strange thing, there is such a strange substance in this world. "Everything in the world, even rotten things, has energy. In different forms and weights, energy constructs all things in this heaven and earth, and the creatures are wonderful. Suddenly, when he encountered such something almost nothing, Xingliuyun couldn't help but sigh at the wonder of the creation of heaven and earth.

When Xingliuyun wanted to feel it more carefully, he suddenly felt a burst of coldness, and the small black film in front of him seemed to have become a black curtain covering the sky, enveloping Xingliuyun...... All kinds of negative emotions came to him, and Xingliuyun's face suddenly turned pale, as if he was on the verge of life and death!

Several other people saw that Xingliuyun was not in the right situation, and hurriedly pulled Xingliuyun out and stayed away from the "transparent stone".

"Liuyun, are you alright?" asked a few people anxiously.

"It's fine. Xingliuyun, who broke away from that feeling, vigorously told the senior brothers that he was okay.

"You take a break. ”

Zhang Yuebin helped Xingliuyun to a chair and sat down, and seven people surrounded him, staring at the "transparent stone" as if facing a great enemy.

After a long time, Xingliuyun recovered, but his face was still a little pale, and nothing else happened during this period.

"Liuyun, are you better?"

"Much better. ”

"What just happened? How could you ......?"

"You ...... Don't you feel it?" Xingliuyun said in surprise.

Everyone was silent and said, "No, it's just that when we saw that your face was suddenly pale and your body trembled slightly, we realized that something was wrong, and then we pulled you away." ”

They really didn't feel anything, and this had never happened when they studied this thing before, if it weren't for the fact that they were always vigilant about this seemingly harmless, strange thing, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After Xingliuyun heard this answer, his brows furrowed, and after a little contemplation, he asked, "Senior brother, where did this thing come from?"

This question, 7 people all feel that things are not so simple, and a layer of fog over the years seems to be about to be revealed.

"15 years ago, Mentor Zheng Yuze got it by chance from a remote mountain range", after a pause, Zhang Yuebin said: "At that time, within a radius of 100 miles, this thing did not grow an inch of grass, and there was no living thing left, and it has not been fully recovered. ”

Zhang Yuebin's words seemed to confirm some conjectures in Xingliuyun's heart, and he said solemnly: "This thing is a big murderer, and it is very likely to be alive!"

Hearing this, everyone gasped, although they had already guessed in their hearts before, but ......

Jiang Haoxuan was surprised: "Then aren't we very dangerous?"

"Not for the time being, the transparent stone should have trapped it, so it will become weaker and weaker. Xingliuyun expressed his conjecture.

"Well, this 'noir film' has really changed its shape very little compared to when the instructor first brought it back, or rather, there is very little activity. Zhang Yuebin said. He joined the Faculty of Arts exactly 15 years ago, and he has witnessed the whole process of change in this 'film noir'.

"Senior brother, I suggest that this thing be destroyed as soon as possible, this thing has a strong devouring ability, once it is released, I am afraid it will ......" Xingliuyun said to Zhang Yuebin.

"Well, I've always had that intention, it's just ......"

"Just how?"

Zhang Yuebin didn't answer him, but asked, "Liuyun, are you sure enough about your guess?"

"7 or 8 points, my practice is a bit special, and I have had an unusual sense of a monk since I was a child, which is probably why I can feel abnormal. ”

"In that case, I'll ask my mentor for advice. Zhang Yuebin said with a frown.

Xing Liuyun noticed the abnormality of Zhang Yuebin's tone, and asked, "Senior brother, but what's the difficulty?" The rest of the people also looked at Zhang Yuebin with puzzled expressions.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuebin simply said: "There are indeed some problems, one is that the academy has been unwilling to do this, and the other is that we ...... this thing It can't be destroyed. ”

At this time, Jiang Haoxuan thought of something and added: "This thing is indeed quite sturdy." ”

Zhang Yuebin said again: "Because I am worried about the uncontrollable factors that may occur, I have never dared to destroy this thing with too drastic methods, and within the controllable range, there is no way to hurt it, so the attitude adopted by the academy is to go with the flow, after all, it has always been weakening." ”

Ji Mingzhe said: "But the vitality of this thing is too tenacious." ”

The crowd was silent.

Yes, for 15 years, or even more, this thing has been living tenaciously in the nothingness of nothingness. But in this way, it has further enhanced its research value, and with such tenacious vitality, what may be found from it.

"It's better to deal with it as soon as possible. Xingliuyun suggested again, looking up at the "transparent stone", and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

"Hmm. Zhang Yuebin said solemnly.

When such an accident happened, everyone didn't have the heart to study this strange stone anymore, and they dispersed, either cultivating or being busy with other things.

Xing Liuyun returned to his room, came to the cultivation room, ran the exercises, and quietly breathed the breath around his body, and the short rest just now really failed to fully recover.

After the sky became dark, Xingliuyun opened his eyes, his expression and breath had returned to normal, but when he thought of the "transparent stone" again, his face was still a little unnatural. At that moment, it was really like a brush with death.

Getting up, Xing Liuyun left the room and came to the dining room, there was still prepared food in it, and he didn't see anyone else, so he ate by himself, and then returned to his room again.

In the cultivation room, Xingliuyun entered the state of cultivation again, and from a distance, a faint luster emanated from his body.

The path of cultivation begins with the spirit and the Kaiyuan is the foundation.

The spiritual realm is the lowest realm of cultivation, but in fact, this cannot be regarded as a realm entirely, because this realm has nothing to do with hard work, but purely depends on talent and chance.

Ying Ling, which means to sense spiritual power.

This is the basic premise that determines whether a person is qualified to cultivate or not.

Some people reach this state as soon as they are born, but some people cannot reach it until middle age or even old age, or they cannot reach it until death; some people may reach it after a sleep, and some people can only return in vain even if they travel to all kinds of famous places in heaven and earth......

How many great powers have fought for the secret techniques and holy places that are rumored to be close to the gods for the sake of the descendants of the family, and how successful are they in the end?

This level has stumped countless people and achieved countless people.

After the Ling, it is for Kaiyuan.

Kaiyuan Realm can be regarded as a real monk.

The human body has vitality, which is the innate qi, through chaos, knowing yin and yang, and the growth of people will consume vitality, although it can be supplemented by external objects, but after all, it is a foreign object, which is the acquired qi, and it is not the same day.

At the beginning of the monk's cultivation, it is to mobilize the innate vitality in the body and condense the Yuan Mansion, which is for Kaiyuan.

Yuanfu Cheng, then the qi is solid, and it is nourished by spiritual power, reducing loss, therefore, although the life expectancy of ordinary monks does not increase, but they are more energetic, not only look young, but also more healthy.

After Kaiyuan, he continued to practice in secret, although he could not live forever, but it was not a problem to prolong his life and stay young forever.

What's more, advanced monks often possess all kinds of unfathomable abilities, which make people yearn for life.

Xingliuyun is a Kaiyuan Realm cultivator, and he has stayed in this realm for 9 years.
