Li Bochen was a little disappointed, but he had expected such a result. Books involving ancient secret spirits may attract the attention of those spiritual gods when reading, which may lead to anger. Although the probability of this is extremely low, it is impossible for the library not to take precautions.
Anyway, he knew very little about the common sense of spiritual practice. Perhaps the "Records of National History" could answer many of his confusions and guesses. As for something more in-depth, let’s figure it out later.
Then he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, girl."
He found the "National History", sat down at a small table next to the bookcase, opened it and read it carefully.
After reading for a while, I realized that I had made a mistake from the beginning when I was traveling with Ying Ge. What Ying Ge said is all in this book, and more detailed. Probably asking him this at that time made him suspicious. When he ate the Sumeru fruit, his suspicions were completely confirmed.
That guy... is really a good actor.
Li Bochen sighed secretly and quickly turned through a few articles. Most of this book talks about how the Emperor's Six Kingdoms were established and how the dynasties changed. It is a popular reading book on the history of the Six Kingdoms. He struggled to find one or two sentences about the ancient secret spirits and spiritual masters between the lines.
Because it was not written in vernacular, it was a little difficult for him to read, and he even didn't recognize some of the words. So when the clock in the library struck twelve, I had only read half of it. He put the book down, thought for a moment, and then closed it again. Those that followed were mostly biographies of princes and heroes, and they seemed to contain mostly romance elements and no valuable information.
However, the vague speculation in his mind has become clearer.
He felt a little hungry and saw that there were already some people sitting in the library, so he put down the book and walked out. There are several small pavilions among the flowers and trees outside the library. Although the flowers and trees are withered now, they are still half-covered. He walked to a pavilion and took out a steamed bun from his arms, broke it into pieces with his hands and ate it, thinking about it while eating.
According to "Guo Shi Ji", spiritual masters are not uncommon in history.
Because it is said that currently, people know that there are nearly a thousand ancient secret spirits that have appeared in the living world and had spiritual masters. And their residence is what is commonly referred to as "the heavens and the worlds".
When the six supreme emperors first established the Netherworld, many powerful spiritual gods also wanted to build similar places to gather the Yin spirits. Because the Yin Spirit is essentially a "field" composed of spiritual power, if all the Yin Spirits are refined like the Demon Kingdom, the spiritual power gained will be a lot.
But in the end, the six supreme emperors and their subordinate Yuanjun, Zhenjun, and the spiritual gods from all over the world overawed or defeated those powerful spiritual gods. They retreated into the small world they had built and hid themselves, becoming ancient secret spirits. Their small worlds are collectively called "the heavens and the worlds".
The Netherworld where the Righteous God lives is also one of the heavens and worlds, but it is undoubtedly the strongest and largest one.
The more powerful among those secret spirits, like the six supreme emperors, have mastered some luck and used it to refine true spirits. Only with the true spirit can we truly control luck instead of using it. Some of the weaker ones also want to gain luck, refine true spirits, and go one step further.
But if you want to refine your luck, you must be strong in cultivation. At the top of the seventh level of worldly cultivation, the "born god" is the extremely powerful one. It is said that apart from the fact that he has not transformed into a Yin spirit and combined the fate of one place to become an acquired spiritual god, his own power may be almost the same as that of the True Lord of the Netherworld.
If the secret spirits want to become stronger, in addition to refining the spiritual power of heaven and earth, they can also absorb the willpower of mortals. Therefore, some mysterious spirits who accidentally get in touch with "destined people" in the living world will separate part of their spiritual thoughts to inhabit the living person and make them become spirit masters. Let him possess limited magical skills and be able to attract believers.
As a spirit master, he usually has the power to control Yin spirits. That's because the heavens and worlds are no longer in the world of life, but have merged with some kind of "power of chaos". As for what the "power of chaos" is, there is no detailed description in "Records of the National History".
But it is this power of chaos that attracts ghosts, just as the light of fire attracts moths.
And when a person becomes a spiritual master, he must have consciousness. Or get the revelation from that mysterious spirit in a dream, or simply be able to talk to it.
Li Boxen knew that he undoubtedly possessed the "power of chaos". Because "Historical Records of the Kingdom" also mentioned that even if it is a living god, without the fusion of fortune, it is impossible to control the Yin spirits without the help of magic and spells.
So, where does this power of yours come from?
He has the memory of the former one, and knowing that one can control the ghosts. But that person has indeed never received any revelation from his dream about the existence of any ancient mysterious spirit.
Actually... there is such a possibility. Li Bochen felt his hands trembling slightly when he thought of this - he was the so-called secret spirit.
I originally did not belong to this world, at least not to the living world. Did the world of my past also have the power of chaos, similar to the "heavens and realms" where the ancient secret spirits lived?
Perhaps when the former one was born, he had some subtle connection with his own Yin spirit, no, his soul, and thus had the "power of chaos".
Three years ago, I came here and completely replaced him.
Although the memory of that time was three years ago, when Li Boxen thinks about it now, it already feels very far away. The three years of struggling on the edge of life and death had erased his sense of identity with his previous experiences and memories, making him feel that this place was a more vivid reality.
If this is the case, he is now his spiritual master!
Li Bochen took a deep breath, took out a steamed bun from his arms, and stuffed it into his mouth. If the speculation is correct, what else can I do? Are there other situations similar to mine in this world?
His mood was agitated for a moment, and there was only his own voice in his mind. When I calmed down and came to my senses, I realized that the academic students seemed to have finished their morning classes, and the stone road in front of the library was noisy with pedestrians coming and going.
Looking to the left and right, there were already some young men and women in the booth over there, discussing something eagerly. I felt that it was not good to stay here and occupy other people's places, so I stood up and planned to go to the water room to drink some water first, and then go to the library to ask if I could find any other books to further confirm my suspicion.
When I walked to the door of the water house, I found that five or six men and women were blocking the door and talking, so they squeezed in sideways. He washed the bamboo tube on the wooden platform with the water flowing from the faucet, took half of the tube and drank it in one breath. After immersing myself in the cold water, my head became clearer.
But I felt that my thirst was not quenched, so I planned to drink another half bottle.
But I heard a young man at the door sneer: "In my opinion, death is fake, but escaping is real!"
He was so startled that the bamboo tube almost fell into the pool. After holding it tightly, he turned to look at the speaker and heard him say again: "We have provided so many armored vehicles and machine-machine crossbows to the north. Which one is not a sharp weapon? Which one is not made by craftsmen who work hard without sleep? In the end, one The military fortress was lost as soon as it was lost. I heard my father say that Wanyou City and Wuliang City would kill thousands of deserters just to kill them in a year!"
