Chapter 397 Who Wakes Up First?
After Chu Ning opened it, he felt like he was reading a divine book for the first time.
There were nearly a hundred characters that looked like symbols, and I didn’t recognize any of them.
You know, he is a powerful god-transforming expert. As early as after entering the Dan Realm, he read the texts of various realms in the library.
Generally speaking, the characters in the nine central regions are the same. Apart from these, there are some other rare types of characters, but he also wrote them down.
There are seventy-two languages, and not a single one matches the one on the page before me.
If you don’t understand, just write it down first.
More than a hundred text symbols are not a difficult task for Chu Ning's memory. He only has three days, so he can write them down and study them slowly later.
After memorizing the words, Chu Ning prepared to turn the page, but the page in his hand was too heavy to turn.
Even if he used the energy of heaven and earth to gather it in his hands, the pages of the book did not move at all.
What's going on? Is this book only one page? Chu Ning glanced at the thickness of the book, and it was obviously more than one page.
So, he had to understand the true meaning of this page before he could open the second page? But he didn't recognize any of these words, so how could he understand them?
Chu Ning tried to pick up the book but found that he couldn't do it. It seemed that the "True Explanation of Purple Qi" was integrated with the stone platform.
Divine consciousness, energy...
After trying several methods, even using energy to sweep across the pages, the text on the pages still did not change.
"What's the problem? Since I'm given the most time, it means I have more opportunities to see the content below. There must be a way to turn the page or unlock the content of this page."
Purple Qi True Explanation...
Chu Ning suddenly thought of a possibility. Purple air represents nobility and luck. Does it mean that it will only be effective if you use luck?
But luck is unpredictable. Even if you have luck, you don’t know how to use it.
A change occurred!
When Chu Ning thought of luck in his mind, purple air overflowed from above his head and floated towards the books.
Purple air fell on the pages of the book. After a while, the words on the pages began to tremble, like tadpoles surging wildly on the paper, and began to reassemble themselves.
Three hours later, all the characters were reassembled. Chu Ning recognized the reassembled characters this time, as they were an ancient text.
【Fortune: The fortune of heaven and earth. 】
【藏运: To store the fortune of heaven and earth in oneself, to achieve great success, is the destiny of heaven. 】
…
There were a total of one hundred words, and Chu Ning recorded them word by word in his mind without missing a single word.
This is the "Cang Yun Chapter" of Zi Qi Zhen Jie, which records how to hide the destiny of heaven and earth, also known as Qiyun, within oneself.
Qiyun means circulation.
If one does not know how to conceal his luck, his luck will be lost, a bit like evaporation.
All living things, whether mortals or plants, have luck at the moment of birth, but this luck is not much, and as time goes by, if they cannot maintain their luck, the luck will slowly disappear and they will become ordinary people.
This is also why there is the saying "cut the grass at its roots" and "bully the old but not the young".
Old man, your luck has run out and you will no longer have the chance to change your fate. This is how your life is destined to be.
Young people have good luck and have the opportunity to change their destiny.
This chapter on storing luck is about how living beings can store all of their luck so that it will not be lost or exhausted with the passage of time.
At the same time, you can also feel how lucky you are.
Chu Ning felt his own luck according to the method of sensing recorded in "Cang Yun Pian". When he looked inward with his spiritual consciousness, he saw a stream of purple air constantly flowing out from the top of his head.
"Damn, it turns out that I lose so much luck every day."
Seeing the purple air flowing out, Chu Ning's face was filled with heartache. It would have been better if he didn't know about it, but after knowing it, he felt so heartbroken.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning hurriedly formed seals with his hands according to the records in the Zang Yun chapter. Soon, the purple air above his head stopped coming out and dissipated into the surroundings.
After preventing the outflow of luck, Chu Ning did not delay and turned to the second page of the True Explanation of Purple Qi. This time, the page was turned easily.
"The True Explanation of Purple Qi: Increasing Luck"
He still used purple energy to inject into the pages of the book, and the words on it changed again, but this time it took a full twelve hours before the words on the entire page were reassembled.
After fifteen breaths, Chu Ning's eyes flickered and he turned directly to the next page.
The chapter on improving luck is not just one page, but is divided into two parts.
The second page only records the first part, and the second part is on the next page.
He only had three days, and he had already used up almost a day and a half. He had to hurry and finish reading the next chapter.
Page 3.
Fifteen hours.
The text on the pages has not yet been reorganized.
Sixteen hours...
Seventeen hours...
Eighteen hours...
At this moment, the yellow sea of fog surrounding the entire palace was only one foot away from him, and there was only a quarter of an hour left in the three days.
Ten breaths.
Nine breaths.
…
When there were only three breaths of time left, the contents of the third page of the book were finally revealed in full.
Chu Ning scanned it immediately and memorized the contents of this page firmly in his mind.
Whoosh! A strong wind appeared, and the yellow fog engulfed him. The stone platform and the books disappeared.
After a while.
The yellow fog dissipated, and Chu Ning found that he had left the palace and appeared in the void, with several planets in front of him.
Every planet has purple light, but the intensity varies.
A crane appeared in Chu Ning's sight, holding a scroll in its mouth.
【Choose a place to go】
After reading the words on the scroll, Chu Ning pondered. The content of the scroll was easy to understand. It meant for him to choose one of these planets.
Obviously, the purple air surrounding these planets represents luck. The denser the purple air, the more luck there is. Choosing such a planet will naturally bring greater opportunities.
But Chu Ning was considering one thing, which was whether there were enough planets to be divided.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
There are only eight planets here, but 28 people can enter the Zifu Academy this time, which means that there are not enough planets to go around, and in the end there will inevitably be many people appearing on one planet.
The planet in the middle with the most concentrated purple energy will have more people choosing it. If the luck on this planet is divided equally, then the planet with the most concentrated purple energy will not be available for selection.
Because once more than five people choose a planet, the luck shared among each person will be less than that of other planets.
"Perhaps, this is the first test of Zifu Academy."
Opportunity!
Luck!
Due to the mystery of Zifu Academy, no one knows what secrets these planets have or whether the luck is equally shared. Therefore, how much you can gain in the end is likely to depend on luck.
"If my deduction is correct, neither the planet with the most concentrated purple energy nor the planet with the least concentrated purple energy can be selected."
Chu Ning whispered that his inference was not difficult, and others could also infer it. They all knew that the richness of purple energy represented the amount of luck.
Therefore, the planet with the most abundant purple energy is definitely the one with the most intense competition, but those who can come here are all blessed with good fortune and are extremely confident in themselves, so there is a high probability that they will choose first.
As for the planet with the faintest purple energy, there is only a faint layer of purple light. It has too little luck, so it doesn't make much sense even if no one competes for it.
The most important thing is that if he chooses the planet with the faintest purple energy, even if his deduction is wrong, he will have no chance of making a comeback. But if he chooses other planets, he can still have a chance.
"Why think so much? Chinese people pursue the doctrine of the mean, but the monk world is not like that."
Finally, Chu Ning's eyes fell on the planet with the sixth most concentrated purple energy. Even if he guessed wrong and purple energy represented other meanings, this planet would not be too different.
"This form of blind selection is quite exciting. It has nothing to do with realm cultivation. It's purely a gamble. My luck is far superior to anyone else's. The choice I made based on my first thought is the most appropriate."
From the time he ascended the Ladder of Destiny until now, Chu Ning had no clues about what he had experienced, and he had to figure everything out on his own.
He had a vague idea in his mind that perhaps this was the original intention of the Zifu Academy. Relying on one's own exploration and making decisions based on instinct, wasn't that just a kind of gamble?
Luck is precisely the key to winning in gambling.
After selecting the planet, Chu Ning stepped out of the void and into the planet.
…
…
As Chu Ning stepped onto the planet and into the purple light, the crane began to soar in the starry sky.
"Who will wake up first from the dream this time?"
The crane chirped softly, and it actually sounded like a human.
When Xianhe's words fell, a brilliant galaxy filled with planets spanned the void and appeared in this area. A terrifying suction force was pulling at the ten planets.
The crane flapped its wings, and there was no sound of howling wind, but the brilliant Milky Way moved to the outside of the endless void.
The Milky Way disappeared, the crane folded its wings, and three feathers fell off its wings.
…
…
Qinghe County.
A river spans three mountains and two lands, giving birth to three hundred thousand people.
There are fishing shops, mountain markets, and grain stores here.
There are one hundred thousand fishermen, one hundred thousand mountain households, and one hundred thousand farmers.
The three hundred thousand people in Qinghe County are ruled by three major families, namely the Cui family who owns the fishing business, the Chen family who owns the mountain market, and the Zhao family who owns the grain bureau.
All fish caught by fishermen can only be sold at fishing shops. All wild animals in the mountains, including medicinal herbs and wood, can only be sold at the mountain market. Farmers must hand over 30% of the grain grown in their farmland to the grain government. If they want to sell the grain, they need a sales ticket from the grain government.
In Qinghe County, the three families of Cui, Chen and Zhao are the kings.
The people of Qinghe County only know about these three families. As for the areas outside Qinghe County, they are too far away for Qinghe County, so far away that even storytellers will not tell about them.
"Mr. Ji, are you still reading?"
In a simple bamboo house, a young man was sitting under a stone table in the bamboo forest, reading a book. A middle-aged man with a weathered face came over, carrying two carps, with his trouser legs rolled up, revealing his calves still covered with a few fish scales.
The master of the Cui family is kind-hearted. Because carp has a lot of roe, fishing shops are not allowed to sell it, but he will not stop fishermen from eating carp. Therefore, for the 100,000 fishermen in Qinghe County, carp is the only fish they can give away privately after catching it.
It’s just that carp has a strong fishy smell, so unless they are really starving, few fishermen will catch carp to give away.
"I don't have anything good to offer, so I'll give you these two carps to replenish your body."
The man put down the carp and left without saying anything. The young man put down the book. There were two big words on the cover: "Human Luck."
