In a spacious room, two lights hanging at the door aroused Zhan Yue's curiosity. They were two white flowers. They emitted bright light when touched with their hands. When touched again, they drooped down. become dim.
"Hurry up!" The mandrill tribesmen were carrying wooden boxes one by one. These wooden boxes took up half of Zhan Yue's room. The wooden box contained ancient books, paintings, some stone tablets, animal skins with inscriptions, and cloth. The Mandrill King really got all the things with words on them for Zhan Yue.
"So many?" Zhan Yue said, pointing to the pile of debris piled up like a hill.
"Yes, these things have words on them." said Dangdang, who was in charge of delivery.
"Okay, come and help me." Zhan Yue stood beside the hill and separated the items according to the type of writing on them. Not everything was that kind of ancient writing. Zhan Yue even found some writing that he didn't recognize. , I don’t know which civilization it belongs to.
After a busy morning, Zhan Yue finally classified everything into useful, possibly useful, and completely useless.
"Move these...these and these out." Zhan Yue ordered.
"Yes!" Several mandrill tribesmen hurriedly moved out the completely useless things.
"When I was checking these things just now, this was the one that intrigued me the most." Zhan Yue took out an animal skin. On the animal skin, a very detailed map was drawn with extremely fine brushstrokes. This map not only included continents, oceans, Various rivers and mountains on the continent are labeled. But what makes Zhan Yue strange is that this thing does not seem to depict Wanling Continent.
In addition to this map, there is also a simple book. Before opening the book, you can smell a medicinal fragrance, which is very strange. There are quite a few booklets like this here, and Zhan Yue took them out individually.
In addition to text, these booklets also have patterns, including some plant shapes and some animal body parts.
"Elixirs? It's actually an elixir?" Zhan Yue was shocked. The books turned out to be elixirs. Why are there so many prescriptions here?
"It seems we can't do it without fully understanding these languages." Zhan Yue thought to himself. Before, he was just translating the exercises for Hulu, but the appearance of so many pill recipes made Zhan Yue want to know what was going on.
"These booklets look like handwritten copies. Did the ancestors of the Mandrill tribe copy them from ancient human alchemists?" Zhan Yue guessed. Zhan Yue was actually more curious about the map than the alchemy recipe.
"Brother, how are you busy?" A figure appeared behind Zhan Yue, it was the chubby Hulu.
"It turns out it's you, you scared me silently. Where is this map drawn? It doesn't seem to be this world." Zhan Yue pointed to the map in his hand and asked Hulu beside him.
Hulu looked at the map and explained: "This is our world. This map should also be left by my ancestors. The words on it are also our own words."
"But why is it completely different from the world map I saw? Even if the land evolves, there can't be such a huge gap, and the proportions of the various mountains and rivers on the map are wrong. Where can there be such large mountains and rivers?" Zhan Yue said doubtfully.
Hulu pointed to the area in the upper right corner of the map and said, "Our world is right here, it's just a small piece here. I heard my grandfather say that ours is called the Spiritual Extinguishing Realm instead of the World of All Spirits."
When Zhan Yue heard this, he felt like he was struck by lightning. He had always thought that the World of All Spirits was a complete world, but now this map told him that the World of All Spirits was just a small area in the corner of the world, occupying only two-thirds of the world. Less than one-tenth the size.
"What about the outside world?" Zhan Yue asked.
At this moment, the voice of the goddess came to my mind, "There is no boundary. You will reach the other side of the world at the end of the world. I tried to go to the end of the world before, but it was like a ball passing through one side and arriving at the other." Side."
"It's like a ball, but it's weird to say it's not a ball. Such a big world of spirits is just one area. What's going on? By the way, Sister Xixuan, the Mandrill tribe once had a civilization gap. , what about the human race?" Zhan Yue asked, the world seemed far from being as simple as he had understood before.
"I know that not only the Mandrill tribe, but all civilized races in the world of spirits seem to have had similar civilizational faults. And our human race can still find some traces, such as the transparent tower, transparent stone, and alchemy and weapon refining. Techniques, they all come from the pre-civilization era, and the fault line of civilization has not completely erased them from the world." The Tongming Goddess explained.
"Brother, why are you in such a daze? You are shocked now? You know what, we can't leave the Lingxi Realm. I heard my grandfather said that the outside world has been destroyed long ago, and the Lingxi Realm is a place where all living things The last pure land." The mandrill king continued to die without surprising.
"The outside world has been destroyed long ago? Is this the last pure land?" Zhan Yue frowned.
"Don't study too much. It's business to help me translate the exercises as soon as possible. By the way, dinner is ready. You should eat something first." Hulu greeted, and then walked out.
After having enough wine and food, Zhan Yue still had the map in his mind. Then he remembered an important thing. He had felt a kind of throbbing when he came to the cave. At this moment, he was wandering around the huge underground palace in the name of taking a walk after dinner. Finally he found the direction of the throbbing, so he walked towards it.
"Second King!" Dingding suddenly appeared in front of him, with a simple smile on his face, "Isn't the King full? It's too late to go to the kitchen now."
"Kitchen?" Zhan Yue frowned, and her throbbing came from the kitchen. "Yes, I want to visit your kitchen and see how those delicious foods are made."
"Okay, okay, Your Majesty is so interested, I will be the guide." Dingding volunteered to be the kitchen guide and brought Zhanyue into the kitchen. It must be said that the kitchen that provides food for four to five hundred people is still very large. There are many people in the kitchen at this moment, and they are busy cleaning various pots and pans. Zhan Yue is very pleased that the Mandrill tribe is not a sloppy civilization, but is very particular about hygiene. Thinking of those copied prescriptions, Zhan Yue suspected that the mandrill tribe had a very close relationship with humans a long time ago.
"I've seen the second king!" The busy people stopped their work and saluted Zhan Yue. Their eyes were more curious. Most people didn't know why the king wanted to become brothers with the human in front of them.
"You are busy with your business." Zhan Yue said, and then walked towards the source of the palpitations.
It was a huge cauldron that was as tall as a person. The cauldron was golden, with a thick and exquisite shape, and the pattern of nine dragons and soaring clouds engraved on the outside. This is the first time Zhan Yue has seen the pattern of a five-clawed flying dragon. The dragon pattern on the outside basically looks like Mi Hongchen's contracted dragon, and is definitely not the shape of a divine dragon. It can be concluded that this is an ancient artifact.
"Second King, this pot is the pot for cooking soup. It is very magical. No matter what you cook, it is delicious." Ding Ding watched Zhan Yue stare at the giant cauldron and introduced it actively.
Without replying, Zhan Yue put her hand on the tripod. A golden light flashed, and in a daze, the contract was completed. A name and a piece of information appeared in Zhan Yue's mind - the Earth Mother Golden Cauldron, one of the two greatest treasures in the alchemy world.
"Earth Mother's Golden Cauldron?" The Tongming Goddess rarely lost her composure, "I heard one of my alchemist friends say that refining elixirs requires a good cauldron, and there are two great treasures in the ancient alchemy path, one is the Earth Mother's Golden Cauldron, and the other is the Earth Mother's Golden Cauldron. It is the Heavenly King's Bronze Furnace. Legend has it that the Heavenly King's Bronze Furnace can induce the purple thunder of the Nine Heavens to temper elixirs, while the Earth Mother's Golden Cauldron can absorb the energy of the earth's spiritual veins and greatly improve the medicinal properties of the elixir. One of the two can make a mortal's alchemy path become a saint. These The mandrill actually used such a treasure as a pot! And you actually contracted it."
Zhan Yue smiled and said: "No wonder I felt a slight improvement in my cultivation when I drank those soups before. It turned out to be not an illusion. Just using it to cook random soups has such effects. It is indeed a good treasure."
In the excitement, another change occurred. The golden cauldron was engraved with dense words, but those words came to life at this moment. They flew out of the golden cauldron one by one and entered Zhan Yue's mind from his eyes.
"The "Earth Vein Fire Casting Body Alchemy Method"... is actually a skill that includes self-cultivation and alchemy techniques?" Zhan Yue could not conceal her inner excitement. She finally had her own cultivation method.
