Zhu Jiuyou Twenty-seven started to move, and Ying Zheng suddenly felt a little dizzy. This was probably caused by the sudden movement of his body in such a closed environment.
Ji Fa took out a cloth bag from his arms, opened it and handed Ying Zheng a spiritual pill.
Ying Zheng didn't even look at it, he took it and swallowed it.
"You have been lifted from the ban and can take this high-level ancient spiritual pill." Ji Fa looked at Ying Zheng and said.
Ying Zheng was stunned and looked straight at Ji Fa.
"Senior...are you talking about high-level?" Ying Zheng swallowed. He didn't know he was choking, but he wasn't scared yet.
"Yes." Ji Fa nodded and said, "This high-level spiritual ancient pill can better assist you in improving, and it will also be very helpful for your subsequent experiences."
"Senior, I wanted to ask this question yesterday." Ying Zheng said, "As for the Ancient Spiritual Pill, I have refined it countless times using that stone tripod, but I still don't know the formula. But now, is it..."
"Haha, if you want to truly learn how to make alchemy, you must take it step by step." Ji Fa smiled and said, "You have just entered the threshold. Don't worry, there will be plenty of time in the future. I will teach you all the skills of alchemy." .”
"Okay!" Ying Zheng grinned from the corner of his mouth to his ears.
While they were chatting, they suddenly felt a change in the direction of travel. The three of them were half-lying into a sitting position. At the same time, the outside environment turned red and the temperature rose sharply.
Ying Zheng suddenly became nervous and looked back and forth.
"Don't be afraid, this is the eye of fire." Ji Fa grabbed Ying Zheng's wrist and said, "It will be fine in a while."
Sure enough, in just a few breaths, the situation improved. The light gradually changed from scarlet to soft, and the temperature also changed from hot to warm.
"Zhu Jiuyou's protective layer needs to be activated before it can fully function." Ji Fa said, "What you saw before was just the preparation state before entering the Fire Eye."
Ying Zheng tried his best to control himself and tried not to make the sound of his teeth clashing together, but his voice still trembled as he said, "Senior, is there really rolling lava outside?"
"Of course, if you don't believe it, you can go out and have a look." Ji Fa joked.
Ying Zheng shook his head vigorously: "It's better to say goodbye. I'm not like Zhu Jiuyou, who can transform into a protective layer."
"Since you know it has a protective layer, what are you worried about?" Ji Fa said.
Yes, knowing that Zhu Jiuyou has the ability to travel through the Nine Nethers, but still worrying about it, isn't that because he is scaring himself?
Ying Zheng took two deep breaths to calm down his emotions, but then he seemed to think of something and asked: "Senior, is Zhu Jiuyou's ability to not be afraid of high temperatures similar to that of the ice Gu? Why not let Zhu Jiuyou Will Jiuyou help us forge the secret stone?"
Ji Fa stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "I have thought about this problem back then. Regardless of whether Zhu Jiuyou and Ice Gu have the same abilities, Zhu Jiuyou's huge body alone , it is not suitable for smelting operations, not to mention that it must not be shown to the world, but ice Gu is different. It poses no threat to the human race, and will not cause any commotion or panic."
"Haha, that's right." Ying Zheng looked at the inner space of the abdominal sac again and asked, "However, the space of this abdominal sac seems to be only so big. Could it be that huge mythical beasts like Yajuan and Xi, Is this how you came here too?”
Ji Fa shook his head and said: "Although this snake's belly can be stretched, there is a limit after all. With bodies like Yaizhen and Xi
, is too huge, even if it really enters the abdominal bag, Zhu Jiuyou will be so swollen that it will be unable to move. If an adult giant mythical beast wants to travel through the night, it can only move forward through a few long corridors. However, due to gravity, it is not only extremely difficult, but also dangerous. Even if it is It often takes several months to reach the destination safely. "
"No wonder every time Jiuyou is mentioned, Senior Yaizhen's eyes show a little nostalgia and loneliness. It turns out that it is too difficult for him to go back." Ying Zheng murmured softly.
.
"It is naturally difficult for adult giant beasts, but young beasts or their eggs can be put into this abdominal pouch." Ji Fa said, "It is said that Yaizhen was sent to the sky when he was young, and Xi was sent to the sky at that time. , but it’s still just an egg.”
No wonder Yaizhen felt a little more homesick than Xi.
"Senior." Ying Zheng blinked and asked curiously, "Yaiju and Xi are both huge beasts. If they fight, which one do you think will be more powerful?"
Ji Fa didn't seem to have thought about this problem. He thought for a while and then said: "If it is a comparison of brute force, the two of them should be evenly matched, but where Yaizhen is stronger than Xi is in the control of energy."
Regarding the concept of energy, Li Si once mentioned it to Ying Zheng after he was attacked by Tai Sui, but Ying Zheng still had a vague concept about it.
"How does Senior Yaizhen control energy?" Ying Zheng was very curious about Yaizhen and wanted to know more about the concept of energy.
"I heard that you were once attacked by Tai Sui, but do you still remember that feeling?" Ji Fa asked.
Ying Zheng nodded, then turned to look at Li Si, his expression seemed to say: How come this old man with a white beard knows everything!
It must have been you who told the secret! !
Li Si shrugged as if he didn't care.
Ji Fa continued: "It is rumored that Yasui's ability to control energy is several times better than that of Tai Sui. It can even directly control Tai Sui. For ordinary people, one Tai Sui is not easy to deal with. If a group of Tai Sui launches an offensive concentratedly, The damage to the nerves can be imagined.”
Ying Zheng frowned and asked, "Since the Egg Clan is so powerful, how did the previous humans defeat them?"
Ji Fa sighed sadly and said slowly: "The ancient civilization was only created by ordinary humans, and even these little bits and pieces that remain have been of endless use to us, not to mention our ancestors Homo sapiens! The capabilities of Homo sapiens are beyond our imagination.”
"Homo sapiens...ancestors..." Ying Zheng murmured, "Presumably, after the restrictions like mine were lifted, humans returned to their normal state. So, homo sapiens are all born like their predecessors, right?"
Lifting restrictions and pushing limits are two completely different things.
"Yes..." Ji Fa's eyes were a little blurred and he said leisurely, "Not only do they have strong bodies, they also have unfathomable wisdom and a high level of civilization that exceeds our cognition."
"Senior, you once said that one of the conditions for the peace talks between the Dragon Clan and the Human Clan is that Homo sapiens must withdraw from Jiuxiao forever, leaving only ordinary people with restrictions to move around in Jiuxiao. This shows that the Dragon Clan is afraid of Homo sapiens. Ying Zheng touched his chin and said, "However, where did the ancestors of Homo sapiens go after leaving Jiuxiao, and where are they now?"
As his knowledge increased, Ying Zheng had long been convinced of the authenticity of the legends he had heard from Ji Fa before, and he became more and more curious about these underlying issues.
Ji Fa looked at Ying Zheng and did not answer his question directly, but said slowly
: "The legends I told you before are not very complete. Especially the myths and stories passed down among the people today are not created out of thin air."
For Ying Zheng, he already knew the general truth of legends such as Nuwa's stone to mend the sky, Huang Di's alchemy to become an immortal, and Dayu's use of Jiuding to control floods.
"Then do you know the legend of Pangu's creation of the world?" Ji Fa asked.
"Of course I know." Ying Zheng nodded and said, "It is said that Pangu woke up from his sleep and saw chaos in front of him. So Pangu held a giant ax and swung it violently, and then opened up the world, but Pangu was still not satisfied, so The eyes turned into the sun and the moon, the skin turned into the mountains and fields, the blood turned into the rivers, and the hair turned into the stars. This is how everything in the world exists."
"Haha, yes, that's the legend, but the truth of the matter is hidden in it." Ji Fa smiled faintly, "Actually, the Homo sapiens who discovered this planet was really called Pangu."
Ying Zheng: "!!"
Ji Fa began to narrate: "Legend has it that Pangu was the leader of an expedition team of Homo sapiens.
What I was engaged in was traveling through the vast universe and exploring unknown areas, until one day I discovered this beautiful but slightly messy star. "
"Pangu named this star the Ancient Star. This is why each era was later named after the Ancient, Ancient, and Ancient."
"At that time, the two poles of Jiuxiao were extremely cold, so the Egg Tribe could only move in the middle zone. All Egg Tribes feed on meat, so the living environment of the jungle led to an extremely harsh ecological environment. Those huge dragons Became the overlord of Jiuxiao."
"Later, Pangu reached a deal with the Dragon Clan, that is, Pangu helped the Dragon Clan transform the ancient star and open up an internal space, which is now Jiuyou."
"Pangu spent a lot of energy and a lot of time to finally transform this ancient star, but by then, Pangu's life was about to come to an end."
"Using the technology mastered by Homo sapiens, Pangu activated the power of nature and placed it in the core area of the stratum. Then he activated the natural source power to circulate the fresh water and sea water between Jiuyou and Jiuxiao. Gravity It has also been reset to make the air richer, and a protective layer has been placed on the outside of the atmosphere."
"Jiuyou is also built to be the same as Jiuxiao, and the natural source of power is placed at the core of the star. It gives Jiuyou light and temperature, which is equivalent to the sun outside."
"During the transformation of Jiuyou, Pangu also built a base. It was originally intended to be used as a temporary residence for Homo sapiens, but later it gradually became a satellite of this ancient star, which is now the moon."
"So, Pangu's eyes turned into the sun and the moon. This is not groundless, but the world doesn't know that the sun created by Pangu is not the one we see, but the sun of Jiuyou."
"Later, Pangu died, but the Dragon Clan refused to fulfill the agreement and wanted to monopolize this ancient star. So the Sapiens launched an attack out of anger."
"That's how the next series of things happened."
"In order to commemorate Pangu's great contribution to the ancient star, the wise people left the legend about Pangu to the ordinary human race in Jiuxiao."
Ying Zheng listened to Ji Fa's story very carefully. He was not shocked or doubtful. His expression and mood were unusually calm, but he was thinking quickly in his heart and imagining the magnificent scenes.
"This is the complete origin of the ancient star under our feet, and the origin of Jiuyou."
All the legends were finally spliced together.
