Chapter 399 An unexpected surprise
The patterns on the stone bridge of the Armor Altar are not complicated. The first one is a very common natural rain scene. Sparse rain falls from the rolling black clouds, dripping on the ground, splashing layers of water, and you can even see the dripping lines of the rain clearly.
Look at the second picture.
It is still a rainy scene, but there are more lines of dripping rain.
The third picture, the fourth picture...are all rain scenes.
However, when Shen Ping looked at the fifth picture, he couldn't see clearly as if there was a layer of fog between them. He didn't care. After all, even this simple first picture of rain made him confused and he didn't know what the picture was about.
Not only him, but also the strongest geniuses of all races were confused at this time and could not understand these pictures at all because they were too simple. For example, the first picture of rain could be carved by ordinary painters, but when they went to carve on the stone railings, they found that they had forgotten the picture. After repeating this process, these geniuses understood that this simple picture of fish and water contained some kind of law. If they could not understand this law, they would never be able to carve it.
"Does this picture express an artistic conception, a secret method or the law of innate magical power, or does it present the great way of nature?"
Shen Ping stared at the picture of the rain scene, frowning and thinking hard.
This level tests one's comprehension. His talent with strange beasts and other means are of no use. Therefore, to be honest, he has no advantage over other beast spirit geniuses.
Five days.
Ten days.
No matter whether they were immortals or geniuses, they were all standing on the stone bridge to contemplate.
Half a month passed.
An immortal from the Jie Clan at the Lotus Lantern Altar actually successfully carved the first picture, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.
“It’s so fast!”
You have to know that this is the altar stone bridge of the three top secret methods. No one has yet figured out the first picture of those ordinary altar stone bridges.
The immortals from the demon clan, spirit clan, human clan, etc. all frowned, wondering how this immortal from the realm clan had comprehended his thoughts.
Two months later.
Suddenly, laughter came from the armor altar.
All the beast spirit geniuses who were meditating had their thoughts interrupted. Shen Ping looked at the source of the laughter, and saw that the spirit race's Immortal Lord had a happy look on his face, and soon carved a rain scene on the stone railing.
"Congratulations, congratulations to Senior Qian Sheng!"
The genius of the spirit race, another immortal, and those of the demon race all congratulated him.
The immortal of the spirit race smiled, then whispered something to another immortal and the geniuses. Suddenly, the other immortal's eyes lit up, while the geniuses seemed to be thinking about something.
"Whether you can gain some understanding or not depends entirely on you."
After the spirit Qiansheng finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Ping and Yuxianzun, then stepped towards the second picture.
Shen Ping's expression was very calm, but he couldn't help feeling a little anxious in his heart. He still had no clue what was going on.
Another half month passed.
Another Immortal from the Spirit Clan also succeeded in carving, which aroused the envy of the Immortals from the Demon Clan and the Flame Clan. They wanted to ask for advice, but unfortunately the Immortal from the Spirit Clan ignored them. After all, this involved top-level secret techniques, and even if they were allies, they would not be generous at this time.
But only half a day.
Yuxianzun also successfully carved a rain scene on the stone railing.
Seeing Yuxianzun coming over, Shen Ping's face showed joy.
"Senior Yu, I am stupid and don't understand what the rain scene picture means!"
Shen Ping said helplessly.
Immortal Yu showed a smile on his face, "Shen Ping, don't be discouraged, you are only in the Mahayana stage, even if you have extraordinary comprehension, it is difficult to comprehend the rain scene diagram. If the two immortals of the spirit race had not succeeded in carving it one after another, I would not be so fast."
"When I first saw this rain scene, I could only vaguely feel that it was related to the five elements of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, but it was difficult to understand the details. The comprehension of these two people from the Spirit Clan is not outstanding among the Immortal Venerables. They can understand it, so they must have come into contact with some related things. What can arouse the Immortal Venerable's interest must be related to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. I firmly believe this..."
"See the lines and splashes of raindrops in the picture? The lines are the basic traces of the natural avenue, and the splashes of water are the manifestation of these traces. Although you have not comprehended the avenue of heaven and earth, beast spirits can sense the essential fluctuations of the avenue of heaven and earth. If you comprehend it based on this feeling, I think you should be able to gain something."
Yu Xianzun spoke in great detail, wishing he could break down what he had understood into pieces to explain to Shen Ping. However, some things were difficult to put into words, so he could only express them in the most straightforward and understandable way. But even so, Shen Ping was confused and only knew that lines and splashes were the basic traces and laws of the great way of heaven and earth.
"Thank you, Senior Yu, for clearing up my confusion!"
Shen Ping was very grateful.
Although they are of the same race, he is now in competition with Yuxianzun. Although the Immortalzun of the Spirit Race has also told the younger generations about it, he did not tell them in such detail. This can be inferred from the timing.
Yu Xianzun shook his head. "You are the strongest genius of our human race. You have made an indelible contribution to our race's ability to escape from the bottom. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even be qualified to come in. Moreover, judging from the previous situation, that senior weapon spirit should value you younger generations more."
"Okay, continue to comprehend."
After saying.
Yuxianzun skipped the first picture.
The talented young generations from the demon clan, the fire clan, the devil clan and other clans all looked at this side secretly with envy in the corners of their eyes. Including the talented young generations from the spirit clan were the same. The Immortal Master Yu had been talking for so long, he must have given detailed instructions.
But they didn't dare to complain.
Shen Ping ignored all this. He looked at the rain scene picture intently, and then sensed the essential fluctuations of the great Dao of Heaven and Earth in the state of beast spirit. In fact, he had thought about this before, and did so at the beginning, but it was of no use.
However, now he repeatedly pondered the lines and splashes mentioned by Yuxianzun, while constantly maintaining a state of sensing the fluctuations.
Lines, splashes…waves.
The so-called Tao is hard to find.
The Dao of Heaven and Earth, which represents the rules governing the operation of the world, is even more obscure and mysterious. It cannot be touched or perceived, but the Dao can be sensed and comprehended by cultivators.
Shen Ping kept thinking about the relationship between the two periods, and as time went by, he seemed to have entered a mysterious epiphany, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
“I see, that’s how it is!!”
"That kind of essential fluctuation is the splash of water when raindrops fall on the ground. The path it passes through is the line of rain, and also the trace of the avenue!"
Figure this out.
It was as if he had broken through the window paper. When he saw the rain scene picture again, his eyes were filled with the fluctuations of the essence of the universe and heaven that he sensed in his sea of consciousness. In the past, he could only imitate this kind of fluctuation, but now the traces of the fluctuation were clearly visible, just like the splashes of raindrops falling on the earth. They confirmed and compared each other, and his perception became clearer and clearer.
Buzz~
As he became more and more aware of the traces of fluctuations in the great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the world bead deep in his sea of consciousness suddenly lit up, and then Shen Ping's consciousness was pulled into the world bead.
Looking at the deserted island.
Shen Ping was stunned at first, then he realized that he seemed to have triggered some changes in the World Pearl. He did not investigate further, but instead took this opportunity to try to carve the first rain scene picture in the World Pearl.
Time passes by little by little.
He was completely immersed in it, and although he understood the principles contained therein, it was not easy to present it. After all, he was not like those immortals who had already comprehended the great way of heaven and earth.
I don’t know how long.
The rain scene in front of you has been successfully carved.
Shen Ping couldn't help showing excitement on his face. He couldn't wait to leave the World Pearl with his mind, but he soon found that after being in the World Pearl for so long, the reality didn't change much. You know, he is a Mahayana and in the state of a beast spirit. His perception is very sharp, so he can naturally know how much time has passed in reality.
"Could it be that the speed of time flowing in my consciousness inside the World Pearl is different from that in the outside world?"
Think of this.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He suppressed the urge to carve a rain scene on the stone railing and began to experiment back and forth. After several times, he confirmed his hypothesis.
"Haha, that's great. This stone bridge comprehension is not only a test of comprehension, but also a test of time. With the World Pearl, it means that I have a lot more time to comprehend than other beast spirit geniuses!"
He was very excited.
Just when he was about to move, he suddenly looked at the immortals of the demon clan, the spirit clan and other clans, and suppressed this thought. Now there are still only three people leading the armor altar stone bridge, two from the spirit clan and one from the imperial immortal! If he succeeds in carving, it will definitely become the focus, and then the immortals of the demon clan and the Yan clan may take action.
"Continue to comprehend the second and third paintings first...it won't be too late to carve them after you've fully comprehended them!"
Shen Ping continued to comprehend.
With the foundation of the first rain scene picture, I was not confused when I tried to understand the second one.
In addition to the increase in lines in the second rain scene, the water splashing on the ground also presents different shapes. This change in shape should be the key.
His consciousness stayed inside the World Bead and kept carving. He didn't care about failure again and again. Although the water splashed fluctuated at the same time, there were changes in it. After tens of thousands of simulated carvings, Shen Ping finally understood that the source of the change in the shape of the water splash was mainly the change in the combination of the added lines.
However, figuring it out is one thing, and wanting to know how it changes is another. The two immortal masters of the Spirit Clan and the Immortal Master Yu must be stuck on this point now.
In reality, if one uses the mind to simulate carving, before one has fully comprehended it, outlining any part of the rain map will be extremely taxing. The Immortal Venerable, whose spiritual consciousness and magical power are suppressed, would also be unable to cope with it. However, Shen Ping's consciousness is within the World Pearl and there is no such constraint, which allows him to keep trying.
Two months passed in a flash.
The immortals on other altar stone bridges had crossed the first picture, and the Ice Immortal even crossed three pictures on an ordinary altar stone bridge at an extremely fast speed.
On the stone bridge of the Armor Altar, Qiansheng, the elf from before, stepped out of another picture and reached the third picture. With its guidance, the other one also reached the third picture only three days later.
Yuxianzun is still stuck on the second picture.
At this time, the immortals of the demon clan and the fire clan also stepped into the second picture.
Five days later.
The top genius of the Spirit Clan successfully stepped forward, and the geniuses of the Demon Clan and the Flame Clan could only worry. However, when they saw Shen Ping lost in thought, they felt comforted.
…
Under the towering ancient trees with emerald green.
The Emperor of the Spirit Clan looked in the direction of the Sea of Realm, his eyes gleaming with anticipation, "Qian Sheng, Ling Hao and the others should be competing for the top-level avenue secrets now."
"Don't worry, Emperor. With the strength and numbers of our clan, we will definitely be able to seize the most secret techniques this time!"
"Yes, with hundreds of beast spirit geniuses, plus the four immortals such as Qian Sheng, and the alliance of fellow Taoists such as the Demon Clan and the Yan Clan, I believe that no other clan can compete with my spirit clan!"
"The secrets of the Great Dao are precious. With the resources of this palace, our race will have a huge increase in resources and will far surpass the human race!"
"Humph, the reason why the human race had more Immortal Lords and Emperor Lords than the other ten thousand races during its heyday was because of the inheritance of secret techniques. As long as my spirit race can obtain the top-level secret techniques, it will definitely allow the spirit race to usher in its heyday."
The remaining Immortals spoke one after another.
The Emperor of the Spirit Clan nodded secretly. In terms of talent and comprehension, the Spirit Clan was no worse than the Human Clan. However, since they could not match the Human Clan in reproduction, there were fewer geniuses born overall. Naturally, the chance of giving birth to strong people was lower, and their foundation was insufficient.
Especially when it comes to the foundation of the great way of heaven and earth, they are not as good as humans.
Therefore, it has great expectations in its heart.
At the same time.
The Demon Emperor was also looking in the direction of the Sea of Realm. Every tribe wanted to dominate among all tribes and it was no exception. Although the demon tribe was huge, it was too diverse, which led to the inability to unite internally. The dragon and phoenix tribes, for example, belonged to the demon tribe. If they belonged to the demon tribe, then the demon tribe would immediately become the overlord of all tribes. But unfortunately the dragon and phoenix tribes refused to recognize the status of the demon tribe.
In addition, there are some other powerful ethnic groups.
However, the secret techniques within this palace are crucial to the demon clan, and it is also the only chance for unification.
"I hope my disciple Bai Xin can fight back!"
…
Inside the lava cave.
At this moment, two years have passed since the altar stone bridge appeared.
The progress of the nine ordinary altar stone bridges is much faster than that of the three top-level altar stone bridges. Among them, the Ice Immortal Venerable has reached the tenth picture, the fastest among all the altars, and the Moon Immortal Venerable is the eighth picture, which is also the front row. If there are no accidents, the two of them have a 70% chance of obtaining the two great secret techniques.
Among the three top-level altar stone bridges, the fastest one is the Lotus Lantern Altar, with an Immortal Lord arriving at the fifth picture. The second is the Armor Altar, with the two Immortal Lords of the Spirit Clan in the fourth picture, and the Imperial Lord Yu in the third picture. The remaining Immortal Lords of the Demon Clan, the Flame Clan, the Demon Clan, etc. are also in the third picture, but they are a full half a year later than the Imperial Lord Yu.
Inside the World Pearl.
Shen Ping looked at the third successfully carved rain scene with a smile on his face. It took him nearly a thousand years to finally figure out the combination of the lines. Compared with the first two, the third one was obviously more difficult. The two immortals of the spirit race were only one month ahead.
"The fourth one!"
Regaining his consciousness, he looked at the fourth picture of the stone bridge, his eyes full of fighting spirit. There were hundreds of lines of raindrops in this rain scene picture, and there were three shapes of water splashes falling on the ground, which was obviously more complex and mysterious.
