Volume 2 Chapter 45: The Book of the Sage (II)

Luo Mu was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at Xi Ze, who was still writing at the desk, Luo Mu recalled for a moment, he only used Chopping Cloud when he met Xi Ze for the first time, that is, when the three of them were desperately chasing him on Lime Street, at that time Xi Ze didn't know that the three of them were his students, but in such a panicked situation, Xi Ze actually noticed that Luo Mu's knife had a complete soul, and even knew that it was a woman!

You must know that being able to achieve this level is not only something that can be done with a soul power higher than Luo Mu's, just like the previous Soul Lord Kevin, Luo Mu is sure that he must not have seen anything unusual about Chopping Clouds.

Luo Mu finally had a more appropriate evaluation of Xi Ze, whether it was Gu Lstone or Xi Ze in front of him, it must not be something that a simple inferior college teacher could summarize, so it seems that Xi Ze just said to the three of them that his alchemy attainments can also rank in the top three in the world, maybe he is not necessarily bragging.

Luo Mu was stunned for a moment, but Nishizawa didn't care about what he was still writing, as if he didn't notice Luo Mu's consternation at all, Luo Mu finally said, "Yes, she is very important to me"

Nishizawa finally stopped the pen in his hand, took off his glasses and put them aside, looked at Luo Mu, and asked, "Who is she?" Luo Mu paused, and said with some hesitation, "I... My friend" Nishizawa sighed indifferently, shook his head and said, "It's really the fearless of the ignorant, if only everything was as simple as it sounds!You said you want to refine the Philosopher's Stone, you said you want to resurrect her, why don't you want to think about it, why is there only one person who has really refined the Philosopher's Stone since ancient times? Do you know how many dangers and difficulties this event represents?"

Xi Ze looked at Luo Mu, his eyes were burning, as if he was looking directly at Luo Mu's soul, and said, "If you are really ready to face all this, then your relationship with that girl is just as simple as a friend?" Luo Mu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Xi Ze waved his hand again, looked directly into Luo Mu's eyes, and asked, "Let me ask you again, who is she?"

Time seemed to freeze in this dim room, all the sounds seemed to be far away from Luo Mu at this moment, but everything about Miao Yun was like a long picture that would never fade, and it would not miss a trace in Luo Mu's mind, and Luo Mu finally realized what Miao Yun meant to him.

"She's my future girlfriend" Luo Mu raised his head, without the slightest hesitation, although his voice was soft, he said categorically.

Nishizawa was stunned, and then he burst out laughing, even laughing out into tears, Nishizawa laughed for five minutes, laughing while hammering the table and saying, "Hahahahaha! Oh my God, isn't you even a girlfriend?! You're so miserable! Hahahaha"

Luo Mu suddenly felt embarrassed, but it was indeed the case for him, although he now understood why Miao Yun was pestering him every day like a little goblin, but he and Miao Yun were indeed not together, Luo Mu was a very strict person, well, yes!

Nishizawa laughed for a moment, then pushed away the round table in front of him and stood up, still with a smile and said, "Follow me" Nishizawa took the lead and walked towards a bookshelf next to him, the bookshelf looked ordinary, no different from the bookshelves everywhere on the side, but when Nishizawa just stood in front of the bookshelf, a blue light suddenly appeared in the bookshelf, and the blue light shone directly on Nishizawa's eyebrows, and then the blue mang disappeared, and the bookshelf shook lightly twice, splitting into two, revealing a dark downward stone staircase behind.

Nishizawa beckoned to Luo Mu, and walked towards the stairs, Nishizawa said a little ostentatiously as he walked, "Did you see the blue mang just now, that's my latest invention, you can directly test the soul of the comer by shining it on the eyebrows, and if it matches, the door will open" Saying that, Nishizawa suddenly smiled, and then said, "If it doesn't match, then the blue light will shoot through his head directly"

After saying that, Nishizawa himself laughed again, but Luo Mu was in a cold sweat when he heard it, sure enough, alchemists are a little crazy in their unusual places, Nishizawa usually looks relatively normal, but when it comes to his own professional field, he really shows a completely different side.

The stone staircase spiraled down, and every once in a while there would be a glowing gem inlaid on the wall, and the two of them walked for nearly five minutes before a faint light was faintly revealed in front of them, and Nishizawa also wiped the sweat on his head, and said, "I don't usually come all the time, and I don't know how to build this deep at the time" While saying, Nishizawa took Luo Mu and stepped into this space that was not known how deep underground.

Luo Mu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he was shocked by the scene in front of him and his glasses widened and he couldn't say a word, the underground space is not large, about fifty meters square, the entire space is made of a gray hard stone, and in the center of the ground in front of Luo Mu, there is a huge hollow, the hole is bottomless, but it is not dark, but glowing with strange brilliance, as if there are countless nebulae churning in it, and a stone path connects a stone platform in the center of the hole, and the stone platform is lonely, only a thick book is placed。

Nishizawa said to himself, "I didn't want to make it so fancy, but Ma Tu didn't say that the soul array under it was good, and I asked for a lot of money to get it for me, and so far I haven't found any use except for looking good, I always feel cheated by him."

Xi Ze said, while taking Luo Mu, who had not yet returned to his senses, walked on the stone path, and walked to the front of the stone platform, the extremely thick book cover was dark purple, the spine and corner of the book were completely made of metal, after the baptism of unknown years, it was still glowing with cold light, and in the center of the cover of the book, a six-pointed star composed of countless lines was rubbed on it, and the countless lines in the six-pointed star seemed to have countless combinations, forming countless geometric bodies, which were obviously static patterns, but they seemed to be flowing all the time, and they were magical.

Nishizawa's eyes showed a frenzied look again, he stroked the book cover, as if caressing his lover's skin, and said gently, "This is Valentine's Note, written by Basil Valentine a few eras ago, and he is also the only person who has been recorded to refine the Philosopher's Stone, so this book is also called the Book of the Philosopher!"

Luo Mu was shocked, if according to what Nishizawa said, then this book can be called a holy book for any alchemist! It is not difficult for Luo Mu to imagine that if this book shows traces in the world, then a bloody storm will be rolled up in an instant, but now, this book is so quietly placed under the ground of their small academy!

Looking at Luo Mu's surprised eyes, Nishizawa raised his thick eyebrows and said, "This book records almost all the alchemy research in Valentine's life, if I master it all, then I will undoubtedly stand at the top of alchemy! Those old guys who criticize my research for being deviant don't know how much knowledge I have that they can't master in their lifetime!"

Luo Mu's eyes suddenly warmed up, since this book was written by the only alchemist who had successfully refined the Philosopher's Stone, wouldn't it mean that Nishizawa could do it? Looking at Luo Mu's expression, Nishizawa immediately understood Luo Mu's thoughts, and Nishizawa snorted coldly and said" Don't be too happy, it's been millions of years since this book was written a few eras ago, and I don't know how many people have ever gotten it, but Valentine, who wrote it, is still the only one who has succeeded in refining the Philosopher's Stone, do you know why?"

Luo Mu also calmed down suddenly, looked at Nishizawa and asked, "Why?" Nishizawa directly turned over the book of the sage, Luo Mu immediately understood that this book was not complete! This is the first question, this book does record the refining process of the Philosopher's Stone, but the one I have, according to my estimate, should only be the first half, which is only about the process of preparing materials, and the specific refining process is in the second half of the Book of the Sage, but the question is, how can the person who owns the Book of the Philosopher easily let others know, it has been the case for millions of years, so I have been looking for at least twenty years, and I have not had any news so far."

Luo Mu nodded, it is true, because in addition to recording the refining method of the Sage's Stone in half of the Book of Sages, there are also a large number of peak alchemy skills that Valentine has mastered, just this knowledge is enough to explore for a lifetime, although the Sage's Stone is a temptation that any alchemist cannot resist at all, but when anyone gets this book, he will definitely choose to hide it and learn it slowly, and at the same time quietly inquire about the whereabouts of the other book, and at the same time, he will never let anyone know that he has the Sage Book, so for millions of years, the situation that the Sage Stone cannot be refined because the two books cannot be completed has happened in almost every era。

Nishizawa pursed his lips and said, "Even if you really find it, and no matter how you get another book of sages, then the next question is in front of you, that is, the refining materials recorded in Valentine's notes, there are a total of five kinds of things needed to refine the philosopher's stone, just now in class, I just told you, what are the four elements that make up the world?"

Luo Mu was stunned for a moment, why did he suddenly start asking questions in such a serious situation, Luo Mu thought for a while and said, "Qi, water, earth, fire" Nishizawa nodded with satisfaction, snapped his fingers and said, "First throw away some of the conventional materials needed in the process of alchemy, the Sage's Stone symbolizes unparalleled balance, it is a concrete embodiment of the soul of the world, so the refining of the Sage's Stone requires the soul matter of the four elements of air, water, earth, and fire to be extremely pure, and requires these four soul substances to achieve complete balance."

Luo Mu hurriedly asked, "Then where are the soul substances of these four elements going to find?" Xi Ze glanced at Luo Mu, pursed his lips and said, "You ask me, who do I ask?" I feel that this is almost impossible, it is impossible to find this pure soul substance of a single element, and at the same time, it is required that these four soul substances are completely balanced, isn't this nonsense!"

Xi Ze touched his chin, glanced at the silent Luo Mu, and said, "But after all, I have also studied for so long, and there are some general directions, such as pure fire attribute soul substance, it is said that killing the dragon clan holy master can obtain the purest soul fire in its body, and it is possible to obtain a completely flawless fire attribute soul substance through refining, but this is also an inference."

Luo Mu opened his mouth, and asked without saying anything, "What kind of person is the Holy Lord of the Dragon Clan?" Xi Ze glanced at Luo Mu and said, "First of all, he is not a human, he is a dragon, well, the Holy Lord of the Dragon Clan existed about a century or two ago, and then he is the peak level of the Soul Saint, if you look at it at the slowest cultivation speed, it is probably now... Well... It's almost the top two Helga principals."

Luo Muqiang held back a mouthful of blood in his chest, Luo Mu even wanted to scold, Lao Tzu is a soul disciple now! You let me show off my skills with the soul saint? ?

Nishizawa looked at Luo Mu's expression, snorted coldly and said, "You feel difficult, this is just the beginning" Nishizawa paused, and suddenly showed a strange smile, that smile was reflected in the soul array under the feet of the two, making Nishizawa at this moment look like a demon!

Nishizawa said, "There's an easier way."

Luo Mu felt a burst of shock inexplicably, and he forcibly asked, "What?"

Nishizawa turned his head, touched the cover of the Book of Sages again, and said softly, "It is also recorded in this book that by killing the four great shrines of air, water, earth, and fire, you can easily obtain the most balanced and immaculate soul matter, so that you can resurrect that girl, and get rid of all fears with her, and gain eternal life."

Nishizawa turned his head and looked at Luo Mu

"But that was at the cost of the destruction of the world"

Note: How to refine the Philosopher's Stone: There are undead souls hidden on Saturn. It is forbidden to look at it with its shackles, because after that a good Oriental pearl will appear on it. Saturn and Mars are connected by a bond of love. It exhausted its great strength and cleaved Saturn's body with its soul. From their conjoined bodies formed an impossibly bright water into which the sun set. Venus is the brightest and shining star embraced by Mars. Their powers should be combined, for she is the only link between the Sun and our true Bright Silver, and using her can unite the two forever.
