Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Is this the statue of Damo that has been passed down from generation to generation by Damo Sect?"
Lu Yuan looked at a three-foot-tall pure copper statue placed in the middle of the hall, with a hint of curiosity and interest in his eyes.
It was already three months later.
Three months ago, he met Hu Yanbi, the envoy of the Xueyuan Fan people, and after an in-depth conversation with him, he finally made the decision to accept the inward migration of the remaining tribes of the Xueyuan Fan people.
In addition, Huang Xin was sent to lead troops to Longxi County to support the migration of the Tibetan people there.
Finally, after the Chu army and the Tibetan people joined forces to fight off several harassments and obstructions by the prairie barbarians, the remaining 1.3 million Tibetans were successfully moved back to Chu.
These Tibetan people were also placed in Hanzhong and Xichuan by Lu Yuan, and were organized into Qi people respectively, and were completely placed under the rule of the Chu State.
At this point, the Tibetan ethnic group was completely extinct.
From then on, there were no snow tribes anymore, only the people of Chu.
Those tribal leaders of the Fan people, who had also been ennobled by Lu Yuan, and given officials, and some of the remaining soldiers and horses of the Fan tribe were integrated into the Chu State system.
But in this way, the Fan people actually disappeared, and the various tribal leaders of the Fan people also became Chu officials and Chu generals. In the secular world, the Xueyuan Fan people no longer exist as an ethnic entity.
If the skin is gone, where will the hair be attached?
Without the Xueyuan Fan people, the spiritual belief that originally ruled the entire Tibetan people, the Damo Sect, naturally suffered a heavy blow.
In the Chu State, imperial power was above all else.
Lu Yuan does not need any spiritual leader to guide his people and compete with him for the right to interpret the gods.
Therefore, the Damo religion was naturally suppressed by the Chu State.
In addition, during the war in the previous two years, the contemporary spiritual master of the Damo Sect was ambushed and killed in a war with the prairie barbarians.
In this way, after the originally glorious Damo Sect got married, the only remaining leader, the Spirit Master, also followed suit and died on the battlefield.
Before the Damo Sect's remaining new spiritual masters had time to train, they encountered a major incident in which various tribes in the Snow Plains requested submission from the Chu Kingdom, and the entire Tibetan ethnic group was about to perish.
This glorious great religion died out due to internal chaos and external changes.
The remaining members of the Damo Sect, under the arrangement of the leader Lingnu, were smoothly incorporated into the Chu State without causing any trouble at all.
Since the Damo Sect is gone, the sacred object of the sect, the Tibetan god, the statue of Damo that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, will naturally fall into the hands of Lu Yuan.
He was sent to Baling by the last remaining members of the Damo Sect and handed over to the spirit girl, who then gave him to Lu Yuan for disposal.
So there was this scene in front of me.
"Sure enough, it is extremely extraordinary." Lu Yuan sighed.
The statue in front of me is made of pure copper. Although it is in a dark palace, it itself emits a faint golden light, giving people a sense of sanctity.
Just from its appearance, you can tell how extraordinary this statue is.
As a practitioner of Taiping Taoism, Lu Yuan has to perceive more than ordinary people.
Through the divine light of the statue, he also sensed an extremely huge force of luck in the body of the pure copper statue.
This power of luck is extremely strong, far more than a hundred times or even more than the luck gathered by Lu Yuan who unified the entire Yangzhou at this time, and also occupied the two counties of Hanzhong and Xiangyang in Yongzhou.
"I'm afraid I may not be able to gather such a huge fortune if I unify the entire Kyushu, right?"
Lu Yuan released his spiritual consciousness a little and tried to penetrate into the statue, but after just a brief contact, he felt a huge awareness of the luck in the statue, and he was instantly ejected.
The statue in front of him also glowed for a moment, buzzing and trembling.
The expression on the statue's face changed from the original majesty to a ferocious one, as if it was coming to life.
The air in the palace was filled with sacred aura, sweeping toward Lu Yuan with powerful oppression.
Like a stormy sea, it seemed that it could submerge Lu Yuan in an instant.
"Your Majesty, be careful. This is God Damo's consciousness awakening. Your Majesty, please don't resist. I can appease him."
The spirit girl who was accompanying him saw the sudden rampage of the statue of Damo, and her expression changed slightly, and she quickly said something to Lu Yuan.
Then his body immediately emitted a ray of light, which was very similar to the divine light emitted by the statue of Damo.
Then she walked towards the statue of the god. The sacred aura permeating the air did not stop the spirit girl, allowing her to reach the vicinity of the statue smoothly.
The two rays of light merged and contacted each other. The spirit girl knelt down, her consciousness and thoughts were transmitted into the statue, and the two began to communicate.
Gradually, with the comfort of the spirit girl, the rampaging statue slowly calmed down and returned to its original quiet appearance. The light was shining, peaceful and sacred.
"Has this statue always been so terrifying?"
Seeing that the surrounding area had returned to calm, Lu Yuan swallowed hard, his expression looked a little pale, and he looked at the spirit girl and asked.
At the moment when he was locked by the idol, he almost felt like a small boat facing the sea. Under the sudden violent waves, it might be destroyed and submerged at any time.
The consciousness possessed by that statue, the luck controlled by consciousness, and the divine power mixed in the luck, which seemed to be transformed by faith, were really too terrifying and too huge.
That was a power that completely subverted Lu Yuan's previous imagination. It was powerful and dangerous.
'This is by no means a power that can be possessed by condensing three qi or four qi. That consciousness, which is as vast as the sea, is at least the power of five Qi Chaoyuan, or even the power of an immortal god with three flowers gathering at the top. '
Lu Yuan thought like this, and his whole heart became hotter and hotter.
He himself is already a monk who can condense two qi, and he has read Taiping Dao Shu and Wu Lei Shu, two Dao books with five qi Chaoyuan level, so he has some general understanding of the power of condensing three qi and condensing four qi. of.
The instant explosion of the statue just now has far exceeded these two levels.
Perhaps only the legendary Great Perfection of Five Qi, when the five elements of mana in the body form a great cycle, and start to transform from the inner world to the outer world, can we have that kind of great power as vast as heaven and earth, right?
And just such a creation with such great power, a statue of a god that contained an unknown amount of luck and divine power, was placed in front of him.
How could such a precious treasure keep people from being tempted?
“Legend has it that thousands of years ago, at that time, there were still immortals and gods existing in the heaven and earth.
At that time, when the spiritual masters and spiritual maidens in the religion were competing with the immortals from the ten regions of Kyushu, they could directly communicate with the idols, causing the gods in the idols to be projected into the heaven and earth, and directly exert the power of the immortals to fight against the enemy.
However, later changes occurred in the sect, and this method of communicating and summoning gods was gradually lost.
And the heaven and earth are gradually declining, unable to accommodate the power of the immortal gods, and the power of the gods in the statues is completely unusable. "
After hearing what Lu Yuan said, the spirit girl first told a legend, and then continued to explain: "In our generation, although I have received divine blessings from the gods in the statues.
But the divine power given to me by the gods is only an extremely insignificant trace of the power she possesses, no more than a drop in the bucket.
So the emperor, I know that the emperor is very interested in the god Damo, but that is the power of the god.
We mortals simply don’t have the ability to get involved.
Now I am still a spirit girl, so the king has offended God Damo and can still appease him.
But no one knows how long this comfort will last or how effective it will be.
Moreover, I will still die one day.
By then, the Damo Sect has died, and the inheritance of the Spiritual Lady and Spiritual Master has been cut off. By then, no one will be able to appease the gods. "
The statue of Damo in front of us certainly did not come out of thin air with such terrifying power.
The source of the power of the statue comes from the entire Xueyuan people. Tens of thousands of years of spiritual belief and worship have slowly grown and grown step by step, and finally gave birth to the current consciousness of Mohu, becoming the terrifying Damo God.
That's why Lu Yuan was able to detect the power of destiny in the statue of Damo that was a hundred times or even more powerful than himself.
This is because the entire Tibetan ethnic group has regarded the Damo statue as a spiritual belief for tens of thousands of years, and then the luck of the entire ethnic group has slowly gathered into the statue, accumulated bit by bit.
Judging from the fact that the Tibetan people had a population of 15 to 6 million at their previous peak, one can imagine the huge amount of luck that such a large ethnic group gathered over tens of thousands of years.
Even in the past tens of thousands of years, the luck of the gods has dissipated, maybe half of it has been lost.
That is not comparable to what Lu Yuan has just unified a state and accumulated decades of luck.
This is just about luck.
Under the tens of thousands of years of faith of the Xueyuan Fan people, the power of faith that comes with luck has accumulated to a terrifying amount.
Although, in most of the previous years, most of the divine power transformed by the power of faith was taken up to the fairy world by the spirit masters of the Damo Sect in the past generations, and was not returned to the God of Damo at all.
But even a thousand years ago, something happened to the Damo Sect, and the inheritance began to be cut off.
The accumulation of faith by tens of millions of people over thousands of years is still a terrifying amount.
After that incident, the revived Damo Sect lost the news and channels about ascending to the immortal world. The divine power granted to the spirit masters and maidens of the past generations was all returned to the statue of Damo.
What the spirit girl said that the power of Damo contained in her body was only a drop in the bucket possessed by the gods was not a lie.
In fact, the divine power she was bestowed upon may not be as much as one ten thousandth of what the statue of Damo possesses.
Because after the inheritance of Damo Sect was cut off, a secret technique mastered by the previous generations of spirit masters and maidens, that is, the method of actively absorbing the divine power from the statues, was lost in the sect.
Although the revived Damo sect's spiritual master spirit girl can also communicate with the Damo god in the statue, if she wants to obtain Damo's divine power, she can only rely on pleasing the gods and letting the gods take the initiative to give it to them.
One is actively requesting, and the other is passively accepting. The difference and efficiency gap between the two can naturally be imagined.
In the past, the spirit master and spirit girl, as long as there was divine power in the statue of Damo, they would take it all out and use it entirely for their own use, without considering the wishes of the statue of Damo.
After all, when the inheritance was not cut off, the spirit masters and women of the past generations who passed down the ancient lineage naturally understood the nature of the so-called Damo God.
That's just the real God Damo left behind to give the Xueyuan people who believe in him a legacy for self-preservation.
The statue of Damo is just a tool medium used to obtain divine power, not a real god.
Later, the inheritance was broken, and the method of absorbing divine power disappeared. Even the nature of the Damo statue was worshiped as a real god by a group of believers because it was rebuilt from the ruins. The knowledge about tools was lost. concept.
In the end, they even created the "Secret Technique of Mo Ling Borrowing Life to Cultivation of Sexuality". This kind of magical power was given by the statue of Damo, and then was raised and strengthened by the spirit master and the spirit daughter, and finally returned to the statue.
The essence has been completely reversed.
Of course, the above are just secrets. The Damo Sect and the Snowfield Fans are completely unaware of these secrets.
The spirit girl didn't know that the god Damo she worshiped was actually a fake. She was a tool that was originally enslaved and became a god, but she actually became a master.
Therefore, she is still very devout in her belief in the statue of Damo.
As for the classics presented through Feishuang Dao and Ziyun Dao, Lu Yuan clearly understood the changes in the inheritance of Damo Sect and the rise of Damo God Statue.
Of course, he would not be in awe of a god like his beloved concubine.
However, Lu Yuan was still quite wary of the Damo statue that had given birth to Mohu consciousness. In a strict sense, this Damo god could actually be called a god.
As the spirit girl said, at this time, he really had no good way to deal with the statue of Damo.
The power the other party possesses is too terrifying.
Even with this power, due to the shallow consciousness of the statue of Damo, it cannot be used well and can only be released roughly and instinctively.
But just like a huge wave in the sea, even if it is just an instinctive ripple, it is not something that an ordinary sailboat can resist.
The statue of Damo at this time is the sea, and Lu Yuan is the sailboat.
He wanted to conquer the sea, but he could not resist the dangerous power of the sea.
Therefore, after listening to the spirit girl's persuasion, Lu Yuan followed suit, nodded with a smile and said: "My concubine is right, this god is beyond the reach of a mortal like me.
From now on, let’s place this statue here and seal it up.
I will never offend the idol easily again. "
Well, it’s true that I won’t offend easily again.
Lu Yuan had already decided in his heart that he would never attack the statue rashly until he had enough strength to suppress it.
It’s better to clean up this statue after you’ve reached your full potential or become an immortal.
Hearing this, the spirit girl said happily: "I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."
Caught between the gods she believed in and her man, she was also extremely embarrassed and troubled. Naturally, she was overjoyed to have a proper solution now.
Looking at the happy spirit girl, Lu Yuan took two steps forward, put his arms around her, and said with a smile: "My beloved concubine, I love you. How can I not listen to what you say?"
With that said, he took the spirit girl with him and walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Then, on the way out, he ordered people to seal the entire palace.
He also sent troops and horses to strictly guard the place, and was not allowed to give orders himself or allow anyone to enter.
This statue is too dangerous. Once it breaks out, no one in the entire palace can stop it.
Lu Yuan didn't want his family to be ruined by this God of Damascus.
Therefore, in order to prevent someone from offending God Damo and irritating this chaotic guy like he just did, it would be better to seal off the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
As for the purpose of this Damo statue, he has also thought about it.
Although there is a huge amount of luck in the statue of Damo, it belongs to the Tibetan ethnic group and has a shallow consciousness.
With Damo God around, outsiders cannot use it at all.
Therefore, although he covets these fortunes, Lu Yuan can still clearly recognize that these fortunes do not belong to him.
Besides, the ancient God Damo competed with the ancient Huaguang Emperor for the orthodox gods of Kyushu, and used the luck gained from belief in him to activate the Tianzhu created by the three ancient emperors.
Isn't this the same as bringing a sworn enemy to steal your home and steal your treasure?
If he really did this, Lu Yuan could not guarantee whether anything would happen to the Tianzhu in the Three Ancient Emperors' Palace.
So to be on the safe side, even if he could really use the luck of the Damo statue, he would not dare to come into contact with Tianzhu.
Therefore, after this function is eliminated, the best use of this statue of Damo is to use it to refine weapons.
In the Book of Taiping Taoism, the refining methods of three kinds of magic weapons are recorded.
They are the Taiping Sword, the Destiny Staff, and the Wanmin Seal, and they are the three weapons of Taiping.
Each of these three magic weapons is a superior magic weapon with unlimited power.
Even the materials used to refine magic weapons have some potential as immortal weapons if their background is good enough.
The magic weapons used by immortal cultivators are divided into three levels: magic weapons, immortal weapons, and Taoist weapons. Each level is divided into three qualities: superior, medium, and inferior.
Among them, most of the magical weapons are used by monks in the Five Qi Chaoyuan realm.
Immortal weapons are used by immortals who have condensed Dao Fruit and reached the state of Three Flowers Gathering.
As for Taoist weapons, only when the three flowers gather at the top and condense the Taoist Fruit of Heavenly Flowers can they be refined with their own Taoist Fruits of Heavenly Flowers and the charm of heaven and earth.
However, Lu Yuan had only read a few descriptions of this kind of Taoist weapon in the classics of Feishuang Tao and Ziyun Tao.
The specific details are not clear.
Because throughout the ancient times, the one with the highest level of cultivation in the Kyushu Immortal World was only the Earth Flower Immortal, while the Tianhua Immortal was never born at all.
Naturally, no one knows exactly how powerful the so-called Taoist tools are, and the inheritance records left behind are just guesses and descriptions.
Therefore, the magic weapons used by Jiuzhou monks are only magic weapons and immortal weapons.
As an exclusive magical weapon for immortals, the Immortal Weapon is naturally unusual.
The three superior magical instruments recorded in the Taiping Dao Book have the potential to become immortal artifacts. Among the magical artifacts, they are all the best among the superior and are at the top of the magical artifacts.
To refine this kind of magic weapon, the materials required are extremely demanding.
Because Taiping Dao Shu is a Qi Yun Taoist method, the instruments it uses are naturally unusual.
According to Taoist records, it must be a treasure that condenses luck before it can be used to refine the three weapons of peace.
The concentration of these treasures of luck will affect the final quality of the three weapons of peace.
If the luck is not enough, even if the three qi of Taiping are superior multipliers, the final product may be inferior.
This shows the influence of luck on the power of the Three Taiping Weapons.
Because of this reason, Lu Yuan had never thought of refining the Three Weapons of Taiping before.
Except for the reason that in this Dharma-ending world, there is no need for magical weapons. The inability to find the treasure of luck is also an important reason.
But after seeing the statue of Damo and discovering the huge destiny contained within it, Lu Yuan naturally became interested.
With tens of thousands of years of luck accumulated by the statue of Damo, let alone practicing calligraphy and multipliers, and even refining immortal weapons, it feels more than enough.
Moreover, the statue of Damo is a legacy left by the ancient god Damo. The materials used to cast the statue are also quite extraordinary. It is still full of spirituality even today. I don’t know what fairy materials were used.
And then there is that huge divine power, as the source of power...
All the conditions combined together make it a perfect fairy embryo.
Lu Yuan didn't need to put in much effort, just a little refining, and a fresh magical weapon might be ready.
"By then, I will also be a person with immortal weapons."
Lu Yuan felt more and more happy when he thought of this. He took the spirit girl and started playing in the palace.
