Chapter 206 Book World

The atmosphere in the Five Dragons Palace was a bit weird.

Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang are on the left.

Master Yuan and Uncle Pang are on the right.

There was a bronze coffin placed between the four people, and next to the coffin stood Lin Bufan, looking very uneasy.

A ball of cyan-gold flame burned at the bottom of the bronze coffin.

This flame was exactly Sister Yuan's life-spiritual fire. She was now sitting cross-legged on the ground, trying to melt the remains of the old man in the bronze coffin.

"Although this bronze coffin is a Yuanying magic weapon, the old man in the bronze coffin is dead and the treasure has no owner." Senior Sister Zhang said: "Junior Sister Yuan's life spirit fire is also extraordinary. According to our original idea, it should be enough to melt this bronze coffin."

Zheng Fa nodded.

If a magical weapon without an owner has no intelligence, it is like a lamb to be slaughtered, which is much weaker.

But in the eyes of the four people, densely packed silver symbols gradually emerged on the bronze coffin in the flames.

As the talisman appeared, the bronze coffin shook slightly, and hundreds of black, dry hands stretched out from the coffin and grabbed the spiritual fire.

Along with these palms, there was also a cold breath that chilled one to the bone.

The temperature in the hall dropped suddenly, and the cyan-gold spiritual fire flames at the bottom of the coffin stopped swaying, looking like they were frozen.

Senior Sister Yuan opened her eyes and shook her head at Zheng Fa and the others, indicating that she was powerless to do anything.

"This... is the secret of the Great Freedom Demon Sect that you mentioned?" Uncle Pang asked, "What does this mean?"

After all, he did not communicate closely with Zheng Fa like Senior Sister Zhang, and did not know much about Zheng Fa's explorations.

"Uncle Master, you also know about the talisman." Senior Sister Zhang glanced at Lin Bufan: "In addition to being able to make talismans, his blood also contains some special talismans. According to the theory of three-child talismans, one of the sub-talismans is actually the same as the talisman that appears on this bronze coffin."

Zheng Fa looked at the bronze coffin and then at Lin Bufan.

He had just confirmed that the talismans on the bronze coffin could be divided into two types according to topology, which were exactly the two types of sub-talismans that appeared in Lin Bufan's blood.

"What does that mean?" Uncle Pang still didn't understand. He glanced at Lin Bufan and said, "Does that mean even if you roast him on fire, he won't die?"

“…”

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Lin Bufan's face.

He glanced at the coffin beside him, and seemed to think that this thing was prepared for him...

It must be said that Uncle Pang is very good at learning from others and has a strong experimental spirit.

Zheng Fa shook his head and suddenly stretched out his hand. A beam of five-colored divine light swept towards the bronze coffin.

The bronze coffin trembled twice, as if it wanted to resist, but was touched twice by the five-colored divine light. It then tried to resist but still welcomed it, and shyly accepted the caress of the five-colored divine light.

But Zheng Fa seemed to be asking for too much today. The divine light once seemed unable to satisfy him, and he brushed the bronze coffin three times viciously.

If it weren't for the fact that this five-colored divine light consumed a lot of energy and his spiritual power was exhausted, he probably wouldn't have stopped.

"Junior brother?"

"This bronze coffin seems to have an owner."

After three times, Zheng Fa carefully experienced the feeling just now and suddenly concluded.

"Yes?" Uncle Pang was stunned and asked, "The old man in the bronze coffin is not dead?"

"Both the soul and the body should be destroyed." Senior Sister Zhang affirmed.

"When I used the Five-Colored Divine Light, I felt that someone was competing with me for control of this magic weapon. This feeling seemed to come from..." Zheng Fa looked up, as if he could see the sky outside through the roof of the Five Dragons Palace. He said with a slightly confused look, "The sky."

"In the sky..."

Everyone looked up, with different expressions.

“Junior brother, what you mean is…” Senior Sister Zhang understood Zheng Fa’s guess: “Is this person the Great Free Demon Ancestor?”

"Hmm." Zheng Fa said softly, "I now think that these two sub-symbols refer to the Great Free Demon Ancestor."

This conjecture actually existed a long time ago.

When he discovered these two identical sub-talismans in Lin Bufan's body, he had two directions in his mind.

One is that these two sub-symbols point to Lin Bufan.

One is that these two sub-symbols point to the Great Free Demon Ancestor.

Now that these two sub-talismans have appeared on the bronze coffin, the first option has been ruled out.

This is also the reason why Zheng Fa never dared to study these two sub-symbols in modern times: if he really created a Great Free Demon Ancestor, it would be something to watch.

Zheng Fa’s behavior just now was just a verification.

…

Senior Sister Zhang and Zheng Fa both looked a little unhappy.

Others were somewhat confused.

"What are you two talking about here?" Senior Sister Yuan asked, feeling confused.

"It's not a riddle, it's just that this idea is really shocking. When the theory of three sub-symbols was first proposed, we had a conjecture that one type of sub-symbol corresponds to all things in the world... For example, one sub-symbol corresponds to a water drop, and one sub-symbol corresponds to a stone..."

After all, there are no molecules or atoms in the Xuanwei Realm, so Zheng Fa could only explain it to them in words they could understand.

The others listened and nodded slowly.

"But now...if these two symbols correspond to the Great Free Demon Ancestor." Zheng Fa said in a heavy tone: "Then the question is, what about other similar sub-symbols? Do they all correspond to different Demon Ancestors, or in other words, great powers?"

"In other words, could it be that the symbols we comprehend were created by those powerful beings?"

"Then...what is the difference between us and the people of the Great Freedom Demon Sect?"

"Where are those powerful ones?"

"Also, if the Great Free Demon Ancestor has created his own sub-talisman...what level of strength would he have?"

Zheng Fa's question was so simple, but it plunged everyone present into a dead silence.

"You mean..." Even Sect Leader Yuan's expression became a little stiff: "This talisman, and even the rules of our world, are actually... man-made?"

"I'm not sure, but I can't rule out this possibility." Zheng Fa said cautiously.

“…Indeed, they are very similar.” Uncle Pang suddenly said, “After we achieved Nascent Soul, we all felt that there was something in the sky that was guiding us, attracting us, and even - shaping us.”

After saying this, Sect Leader Yuan and Senior Sister Zhang both nodded.

Zheng Fa also heard Senior Sister Zhang talk about this feeling.

"We have always felt that this feeling is enlightenment..." Uncle Pang said slowly: "But, what if the thing that attracts us is a person?"

After these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall became three degrees colder.

"Uncle Master, are you saying... there is someone in heaven watching us?"

Senior Sister Yuan stuttered.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Zheng Fa felt a chill on his back.

"No, there is another possibility. This talisman was created by a human, but whether the human is there or not is another explanation." Senior Sister Zhang suddenly said, "Junior Brother Zheng, I later thought about your experience in the Tianbei Realm, especially the so-called loss of the immortal god."

Zheng Fa was stunned.

He had never thought of putting the Tianbei Realm and the Xuanwei Realm together before, but it was only after Senior Sister Jingzhang reminded him that he finally understood.

The two may not be unrelated.

"Whether they are immortals or gods," Senior Sister Zhang said her guess: "If they are the ones who created this second type of sub-talisman, then they... may no longer exist, at least they can't affect our world."

Zheng Fa nodded slowly.

Several people looked at each other, with a slight comfort on their faces, although what Senior Sister Zhang said was just a guess.

But a dead power is better than staring at one’s own power.

When walking out of the hall, Zheng Fa couldn't help but look up at the sky again.

The sky is blue and the sun is bright and gentle.

Zheng Fa turned around and saw that Senior Sister Zhang and the others were also looking up at the sky. He knew that they were actually asking the same question in their hearts: "Who is writing about the world above the dome?"

…

modern.

"You mean, the second type of sub-symbol does not refer to the substance itself, but to... a certain immortal god?"

In the nursing home, the old man with white eyes widened as he listened to Zheng Fa's words, as if he couldn't believe it.

"It's possible." Zheng Fa nodded and said, "We have not been able to find the rules for the other two types of sub-symbols. It may be because they do not represent a certain substance, but a certain existence."

"Wait a minute, let me sort it out." The old man frowned and said, "Spiritual energy can control matter, right?"

"yes."

"Now you tell me that there is a type of sub-symbol that is not natural, but because someone, no, some existence created some rules."

"right."

"Then..." The old man shrank his neck: "What are we? Bacteria in a petri dish?"

Zheng Fa shook his head and said, "I thought so at first, but later... I had another idea."

There are actually two reasons that prevent Zheng Fa from despairing: the first is the Great Free Demon Ancestor.

If the rumors are true, then the Great Free Demon Ancestor should be from the Xuanwei Realm. The fact that he can now create his own sub-talisman indirectly proves one thing:

Cultivators do not practice according to other people's rules, but as their practice level improves, they can create their own rules.

The two are completely different.

There is no way that the lab mice can suddenly transform into the people doing the experiments.

At least from now on, the path of cultivating immortals does not exclude you from becoming the maker of rules.

Second, it is the current situation of the Tianbei Realm.

Just like what Senior Sister Zhang said, if the so-called immortals and gods are the rule makers, then what he heard in the Temple of the Gods about the heaven being covered in dust and the immortals and gods losing their positions, does it mean that something has happened to them too?

At least it can't affect the Tianbei Realm.

The Xuanwei Realm now seems to be of a higher "level" than the Tianbei Realm, and seems to be more difficult to be influenced, and it doesn't even have the title of God.

If it were the modern times, it would be even more special. If there were no Zheng Fa, there would not even be any spiritual energy in the modern times.

"What do you think?"

"I was thinking, if we view the world as a computer like Tang Lingwu did, then these talismans seem to be - more like some programs written by humans?" Zheng Fa summarized the current situation: "Today, those programs are still there, but it is hard to say whether the people who wrote the software are still there."

"We even need to explore how to use these programs and whether they are useful."

When Zheng Fa said this, he felt a little strange in his heart - this thing really is a trademark.

The others nodded when they heard this.

That makes them feel a little better.

"So," the old man said blankly, "I, a cultivator, have suddenly become a programmer?"

“More than that.” Tang Lingwu’s expression was a little ugly: “It’s still the kind of programmer who can’t find any comments when faced with the pile of shitty code left by his predecessors.”

“…”
