The Elysium Across Deep Space - Chapter 21
[Chapter 21]
Next, the two of them tacitly did not mention the matter of exploration, leaving an option for whether or not to cooperate in the future.
They talked about old techniques, mainly Wang Xuan asking, he wanted to know some things, such as the golden bamboo slips of the pre-Qin period.
Zhao Qinghan clearly told him not to think too much about this kind of “strange thing”. Only four copies have been unearthed over the years, and two copies were scrambled by various parties and scattered.
In the true sense of the pre-Qin golden bamboo slips, there are only two complete copies left, and they are locked in the strongest safe of the largest bank in Xinxing.
Wang Xuan has regrets, this kind of thing is out of reach.
Even if the old technique declines, those organizations and chaebols have no intention of letting go, at least there is no hope for now.
Zhao Qinghan told him not to mention golden bamboo slips, but any of the inheritance of pre-Qin alchemists is extremely rare, because too few survive.
“That is to say, ordinary pre-Qin bamboo slips are also invaluable?” Wang Xuan asked.
Zhao Qinghan glanced at him and said, “There is no ordinary thing about bamboo slips related to pre-Qin alchemists.”
Wang Xuan realized how precious the translation of the pre-Qin bamboo slips that Professor Lin gave him.
In fact, Professor Lin nearly lost his life for this bamboo slip, escaped from the pre-Qin tomb, and survived by luck.
“I heard that there was a grandmaster on Xinxing’s side, but in the end he was consumed by practicing some kind of physique. How strong are people at that level?”
Zhao Qinghan was a little surprised, and felt that his news was not blocked. Even Xinxing knew about this kind of thing, and judged that he must have other ways.
After Wang Xuan finished speaking, she knew that she must have various ideas.
But he doesn’t care. The two will soon go their separate ways. Under normal circumstances, there is not much intersection. Anyway, he doesn’t want to go into the muddy waters of Zhao Qinghan’s exploration plan.
Zhao Qinghan has some feelings. The old art is quite a bumpy road, and it is very difficult to walk. Few people can achieve success.
“That master practiced a secret scripture from the Taoist ancestral court that you were thinking about just now, and ended up putting himself in it. His five internal organs were rotten as if they were cooked, and he died quite miserably.”
Wang Xuan is awe-inspiring, so dangerous?
He paid more and more attention and caution to the golden book in his hands. What Zhang Daoling left behind was definitely not weaker than the secret scriptures of the Taoist ancestral court.
Qin Cheng sighed: “Why bother, they are all masters, and finally there is a mess of five internal organs. People, you will never be satisfied.”
“You said it lightly. When he grows old day by day, he learns that once he succeeds in practicing that kind of physique, he can regenerate the aging five internal organs and prolong his life for decades. Do you think he can withstand the temptation?”
“There are such great benefits, if I… want to try it too!” Qin Cheng nodded, yearning leisurely.
“How far is the master’s level from the pre-Qin alchemist?” Wang Xuan asked.
“It’s not an order of magnitude, it’s too far behind to compare.” Zhao Qinghan said flatly.
Then she looked at Wang Xuan and said, “I see that you really want to keep going on the road of old art. Is your goal a pre-Qin alchemist?”
Wang Xuan said: “I am a person who has been abandoned. If I can’t get in touch with new techniques, I can only go on the road of old techniques.”
After Qin Cheng heard it, he was deeply moved and felt sorry for his friend.
Zhao Qinghan feels that Wang Xuan is very talented in the old art, and no one can say what will happen in the future.
Qin Cheng shook his head and said, “Old Wang was born at an untimely time. If it was in ancient times, he might have grown to the point where he could dominate the world and become a legend or even a myth. But in this era, with the rise of scientific and technological civilization, he practiced old techniques. What can we do when we reach the extremely deep realm? It can’t stop modern weapons. The galaxy is still brilliant, the Qin Emperor and Han Wu have become loess, and the alchemists who were ordered to find the medicine for them have all died in the years, and the old art is difficult. Ah, no hope in sight.”
This topic is a bit heavy. Living in this era, the old art is really dim, and it is difficult to see the hope that it will shine again.
How can the old technique be stronger? It is enough for an elite soldier to hold an advanced technological weapon, and he can directly deal with the masters in the field of old art.
Zhao Qinghan looked at Wang Xuan and found that he was very calm. Obviously, this is a man with a strong heart and his own beliefs. Does he think there is still a way out for the old technique?
“So…” Qin Cheng spoke again, took over what he said before, looked at Zhao Qinghan, and said, “It would be a pity if Old Wang was buried like this, Goddess Zhao, do you have any way to help Wang Xuan, such as Xinshu? practice, etc., or take Wang Xuan to Xinxing.”
Having said so much, he just wanted to set the stage, and he did not hesitate to ask Zhao Qinghan to help Wang Xuan.
Wang Xuan waved his hand to stop his words, then patted his shoulder and said, “I know my way very well.”
He didn’t say thank you to Qin Cheng, understood his intentions, and didn’t want him to ask for help like this.
Zhao Qinghan told her that she would promote this matter after returning to Xinxing, but she could not guarantee anything.
Wang Xuan thanked her, but declined, he wanted to reconsider his own path.
Zhao Qinghan nodded, smiled, and got up to leave soon after, saying that we would meet again in the future, and we would meet again at that time.
Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng got up and watched her leave.
Qin Cheng said: “Pharaoh, you don’t seem to want to get involved with her too much, but I feel a pity to reject her like this. If she is willing to help, she can probably take you to Xinxing.”
Wang Xuan shook his head: “The players on the other side of the starry sky have already begun to explore a certain mysterious area. I can’t afford it at the moment. I don’t want to get involved.”
Qin Cheng nodded and said, “It makes sense. Where do you think it is? She mentioned that some people have ambitions and want to ignite the fire. What’s the matter?”
“The information I have received so far is too little to clarify what the situation is, but it sounds like it has something to do with the Western belief in conferring gods.”
“I’ll go, won’t I?!” Qin Cheng was taken aback and said, “In this era, can someone really imagine becoming a god? Crazy!”
Wang Xuan said: “Who knows what they all found, didn’t she say that some people are also daydreaming, thinking about becoming a Buddha and being an ancestor?”
Qin Cheng sighed with emotion: “It seems that something extraordinary has really happened in the depths of the starry sky, I seem to be able to feel the strong wind over there, the sea of stars, the new era, infinitely vast, I am so excited that I can’t wait to catch up immediately. past.”
“After the founding of the country, it is not allowed to become a fine!”
Qin Cheng was speechless when he heard him say this suddenly, feeling that the joke was a bit cold.
Wang Xuan said: “What I mean is that with such advanced technology, some chaebols on Xinxing’s side can just imagine, if they dare to go out of their way, it is estimated that they will die miserably. Other organizations and big institutions will definitely take action, but the country It will not sit back and watch, and those who violate the general trend will be crushed into powder by all parties.”
…
In the evening, Wang Xuan returned to his residence, carefully studied the bamboo slips given to him by Professor Lin, and felt the power buried in the years with his heart.
Qin Cheng’s words still touched him to some extent. In this era, the scientific and technological civilization is so splendid, and the top masters in the old art can’t stop those weapons and see no way out.
The galaxy is splendid, the world is thousands of years old, the times have changed, can the old art be reborn?
Wang Xuan put down the scriptures on the bamboo slips, read the physical skills recorded in the golden book, and practiced for a while according to the engraved pictures on the first page.
He knew that what Zhang Daoling left behind must be a priceless treasure, but he couldn’t be in a hurry.
What reassured him was that the pain was different from what Aoki said. He seemed to be able to get used to it slowly, and he could continue to practice after a little rest.
After half an hour, he felt that he had reached the limit, so he stopped decisively and stopped practicing the physical skills in the golden book.
“Look at the old scriptures Zhou Mingxuan gave me.”
Two days ago, at the class reunion, he got an old secret book from Zhou Mingxuan, and he didn’t read it carefully after he brought it back.
He didn’t hold out much hope, he didn’t think the other party would give him something amazing.
“Hey, it’s similar to the Golden Clothes Body Art I practiced, or even the follow-up?” Wang Xuan was surprised and began to study it carefully.
This is a physical technique called “Golden Body”, which seems to have a powerful effect. According to records, in the later stage, it can be fearless of swords and soldiers in the world.
Wang Xuan was dumbfounded, isn’t the description in the book a little exaggerated?
If there is such an amazing effect, how could Zhou Mingxuan give it to him.
When Wang Xuan saw the back, his face changed, and he threw the secret book on the table.
“Old Zhou, don’t blame me for beating your son, there will be a suitable opportunity in the future, and you will be beaten every time!”
He felt that he was tricked by Zhou Mingxuan, what kind of secret recipe is this? The recorded things are false and unreliable at first glance, no wonder Lao Zhou will send him.
This kind of physical technique called golden body, according to the description, after the first level is practiced, the fighting ability will increase sharply, and it will take about a year.
Then, it was written very clearly in the secret book, and the time required to increase each level would need to be doubled. What kind of physical skills can this be practiced by?
Wang Xuan just wanted to fight Zhou Yun right away. According to this algorithm, he would not live for hundreds of years, but he wanted to practice this kind of physique to a higher realm, just dream!
He turned the page back, and it was all over nine floors? The whole…thirteenth floor! No, he watched carefully, and there were actually the fourteenth and fifteenth floors in the game!
“I’m going!” Wang Xuan was in a daze, saying that it has been less for hundreds of years. Is this a physical art practice for people?
“You just toss, Lao Zhou, and wait and see!” Wang Xuan threw the yellowed scripture that looked like an antiquity aside.
