The three of them entered the bronze palace.
There was only one palace. Although it was spacious, the furnishings were simple. There were stone tables and chairs, stone beds, pottery bowls, and other daily necessities.
Moreover, although no one had lived in the palace for a long time, it was very clean and tidy. There was almost no dust.
In a corner, there was a slightly tilted jade plate.
On the edge of the tilted jade plate, there seemed to be a drop of dew. Below it, there was a bamboo tube filled with clear water. It seemed to be the dew that was collected from the jade plate.
Zuo Ci said, "This should be the 'Dew Bearing Plate'. It is collected from the Immortal Dew. Drinking a mouthful is refreshing. For cultivators, it is enough to satisfy their hunger."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "I've heard of the phrase 'eating wind and drinking dew', but I didn't expect it to be true. Is this bamboo tube filled with Immortal Dew? "
Zuo Ci nodded slightly. "Since the three of us found this item, it is only right that we share it."
After saying that, Zuo Ci stepped forward and pulled out the wooden hairpin on his head. With a swipe, the Clear Dew in the bamboo tube flew out like a water dragon and split into three parts in the air, turning into three fist-sized water balls.
Ge Xuan quickly took out three water bags and stored the three water balls.
Drip.
After Zuo Ci took away the dew from the bamboo tube, the dewdrop at the edge of the dew-bearing plate finally dripped down again and fell into the empty bamboo tube. The next dewdrop began the slow process of condensing again.
It seemed that if the bamboo tube was full of dew, the dew in the Dew Bearing Plate would not drip down. He did not know how it worked.
Ge Xuan handed one of the water bags to Bai Xiaowen. "Young Master, please accept it."
Bai Xiaowen originally thought that this item was not a spoil of war and could not be brought out of the Spiritual Realm, so it was meaningless. However, after taking the water bag and looking at it, he was stunned.
[Dew (30 drops): Special Item. After drinking one drop, you do not need to eat for one day. At the same time, you will recover 100 points of energy (including but not limited to Yuan Li, Dou Qi, Gang Qi, Magic, etc.).]
However, there was no indication that it could not be brought out of the Three Kingdoms!
In other words, the spirit realm's laws recognized this as Bai Xiaowen's "spoils of war," or a reward item.
Bai Xiaowen was overjoyed. Of course, he took it without hesitation.
It seemed that this Guang Chengzi's abode was really quite special. When the god of death, Negar, summoned Gloria, he was defeated. According to Bai Xiaowen's understanding, this place was probably already half detached from the Three Kingdoms.
On the side wall of the Chenglu Pan, Bai Xiaowen saw two swords.
For some reason, Bai Xiaowen felt a slight tremor in his heart when he looked at the two swords. He had an impulse to pick them up.
Zuo Ci exhorted, "That's the Male and Female Swords, Master Immortal Guang Chengzi's killing weapon. Just like the Luo Po Bell, it can't be used carelessly. Otherwise, you'll be harmed."
Bai Xiaowen shuddered and immediately said, "But I heard that Master Immortal Guangchengzi uses a brick."
Zuo Ci smiled and shook his head. Then, he led the two onward.
In the open space ahead, there was a purple futon.
"This purple futon is used for meditation. It's woven from Purple Calamus and can calm the soul," Zuo Ci said.
Bai Xiaowen's eyes lit up. "Could this be the key to unlocking the jade slip? Sitting on the purple futon and looking at the jade slip with Inner Sight, we might be able to decipher it. "
Ge Xuan nodded and said, "You're right, Young Master. I think we can give it a try. Among the three of us, Master has the highest cultivation. Why don't we ask Master to give it a try? "
Zuo Ci didn't refuse. He sat cross-legged on the purple futon, and a trace of tranquility appeared on his face.
Zuo Ci held the jade slip in his hand. After a while, he opened his eyes and shook his head. "No."
Ge Xuan and Bai Xiaowen also sat on the futon and gave it a try.
The futon really did have the effect of calming the soul. Sitting on it, all mortal thoughts seemed to dissipate.
Unfortunately, both Ge Xuan and Bai Xiaowen sat on the futon and looked at the jade slip with Inner Sight. They couldn't find anything. The jade slip was still blank.
Suddenly, Zuo Ci's voice sounded. "Come here."
It turned out that while the two were trying, Zuo Ci had already toured the inside of the Bronze Palace.
Zuo Ci stood next to a slanted stone plate and said, "In my opinion, this thing is the key to unlocking the jade slip's mystery."
Bai Xiaowen looked at it. The slanted stone plate was engraved with symbols such as Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, the twelve stars, and so on. There was a long copper needle in the center, perpendicular to the surface of the stone plate.
"This is … a sundial?" Bai Xiaowen was considered knowledgeable.
Zuo Ci said, "This isn't an ordinary sundial, but a rotating sundial. It can focus sunlight to project the contents of the jade slip and enlarge it. Then, we can use Inner Sight to look at it. We'll definitely succeed. "
Bai Xiaowen suddenly understood. According to Zuo Ci's explanation, this rotating sundial was equivalent to a combination of a microscope and a projector.
Of course, it was a unique product of Daoism and was equivalent to a spiritual artifact. It couldn't be compared to the ordinary microscopes and projectors on Earth.
"Then, how do we operate it?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
Zuo Ci said, "An Immortal's treasure can't be driven by mortal power. Fortunately, we obtained some items when we went through the River Diagram Array. They're just right for us to use. "
Zuo Ci immediately took out three faintly glowing thin pieces.
Ge Xuan also took out three pieces.
"I also have these." Bai Xiaowen recognized them. They were the Immortal Crystal fragments found in the remains of the Yellow Stone Strongman in the River Diagram Array. After saying that, he also took out his three fragments.
Zuo Ci nodded and said, "These nine incomplete Immortal Crystals should be enough to drive the rotating sundial. However, the rotating sundial can only operate for a limited time, so we must seize this opportunity. "
Ge Xuan and Bai Xiaowen both nodded to express their understanding.
Zuo Ci took the jade slip and the nine Immortal Crystal fragments.
He first put the nine Immortal Crystal fragments into the grooves on the edge of the stone plate and then patted it hard.
Buzz buzz buzz …
The stone plate of the rotating sundial slowly rotated.
A ray of light was projected from the top of the copper needle.
Zuo Ci held the jade slip and welcomed the ray of light.
The ray of light directly penetrated the jade slip and projected on the dome of the palace, forming a large light screen.
The three of them looked up to watch.
Although they said they were watching, they actually closed their eyes and used Inner Sight to read the dome's light screen.
Under Bai Xiaowen's Inner Sight, the dome's light screen was blurry at first, but then it gradually became clear with the outline of words. Finally, it focused into clear words.
The first line from the right read: Great Void Scripture.
"The origin of Heaven and Earth is the origin of Qi …"
Bai Xiaowen didn't understand the true meaning of the scripture, but the feeling was similar to reading the Taiping Scripture. When he read the words on the dome's light screen, there was always an inexplicable truth in his mind. It was as if the world was made up of visible threads, and he had a feeling that he could grasp the veins of the world.
