As the white light fell on him, Mengqi felt the broken long sword on his right chest and the crossbow on his back fell off. His wounds healed quickly. The dizziness caused by excessive blood loss and the difficulty of breathing caused by his injured lungs soon disappeared.
The dark gold color flowed on his skin. The Golden Bell Shield that was broken by the last sword attack was restored.
"Haha, I don't need 18 years. I'll be a hero again!" Mengqi was in a good mood because of the great harvest. He laughed like a proud villain while stretching his limbs.
At this time, the Samsara Square was empty. There was no one else except him.
"They haven't come back yet? Are they out of sync? " Mengqi looked around and suppressed his worry that they were all dead. He walked to the central light pillar and took out the Little Jade Buddha first to let the Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms judge its value.
"Cold Jade Buddha, a mysterious object of unknown value and unknown use. It is suspected to be some kind of symbol, road mark, or key. You can decrypt it with 50,000 Karma points." The Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms said emotionlessly.
"50,000 Karma points …" Mengqi could only laugh. Then he suppressed his doubts and put away the Little Jade Buddha. According to the content of "Transformation Strategy" in his mind, an ancient script was generated.
"'Transformation Strategy', a skill in the enlightenment period. It can be exchanged for 200 Karma points."
Seeing that there was no word "fake" or "missing", Mengqi was relieved. He looked at the exchange and quickly found "Transformation Strategy" according to the ranking rules. He found that it was originally worth 400 Karma points. In other words, Duan Xiangfei did not play tricks and the script was not wrong.
He thought for a while and took the script back. He did not exchange it for Karma points directly. He planned to ask Jiang Zhiwei and the others if they knew about the Three Secret Chambers.
"Little monk, you're back quite early." As soon as he thought of this, he heard Jiang Zhiwei's voice, which was as sweet as an oriole's. He turned around and saw Jiang Zhiwei wrapped in a ball of white light. She seemed to be badly injured and was on the verge of death.
Mengqi smiled and said, "Maybe I finished the task faster."
The white light dissipated. Jiang Zhiwei walked over with a heavy bronze scabbard. Her black hair was still tied up, elegant but bright. But her light yellow dress was changed to ivory color. She seemed to prefer simple elegance with a little warmth.
"I didn't expect it to be a solo task." Jiang Zhi Wei said with a smile, "I was worried that you wouldn't have enough experience for your first solo action."
Based on his "experience", Meng Qi had told them his speculation during their previous conversation. He felt that there might be solo tasks or team tasks. Therefore, Jiang Zhiwei did not panic when it really appeared.
"I have the Golden Bell Shield. Even if I don't have enough experience and make a mistake, I can still save myself." At this moment, Meng Qi was glad that he had chosen this path. After all, he was in a Samsara task and could not accumulate experience and grow step by step like a normal Jianghu person.
At this point, he was stunned. "Miss Jiang, what are you carrying on your back?"
Jiang Zhiwei carried a big dark blue bag on her back.
Jiang Zhiwei wrinkled her nose and said, "Little monk, we can be considered friends who have gone through life and death together. Don't you think it's too distant for you to keep calling me Lady Jiang? Just call me Zhiwei. Of course, I think it's better to call me Sister Zhiwei. Haha. "
Mengqi was embarrassed. He couldn't blame Jiang Zhiwei for wanting to be his sister. He was three or four years younger than her.
"Zhiwei." He wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist.
Jiang Zhiwei chuckled and said, "I knew it. You always act mature. I'm afraid you don't want to call me sister."
She was open-minded and didn't dwell on the problem. She pointed to the bag on her back and said with a smile, "I have some free time in this task. I collected a lot of scripts. I should be able to exchange them for a hundred Karma points."
"That's what I was going to do, but I can't leave." Mengqi said with regret. Fortunately, he got the Transformation Strategy. "There are so many scripts. I'm afraid it's not possible for one person to collect them all."
"Yes, I've asked a lot of people for help. But they're all ordinary scripts, not worth mentioning." Jiang Zhiwei confirmed Meng Qi's speculation.
Since they mentioned scripts, Mengqi asked immediately, "Zhiwei, do you know the Three Secret Chambers?"
"I don't know." Jiang Zhiwei shook her head and pondered for a while. "Maybe it's because of the different names. Tell me more."
"It should be the Lower Elixir Field, Middle Elixir Field, and Upper Elixir Field. I'm not sure about the first two, but the last one is to cultivate the Primal Aperture at Mid-brows. It can open the Secret Chamber of Spirit and disturb the enemy's five sense organs in battle, causing him to hallucinate." Mengqi explained in detail.
Jiang Zhiwei suddenly laughed. "I see. After the Nine Innate Apertures are opened, the Hidden Latch of Life and Death must be broken through to the 'Bridge of Heaven and Earth' in order to merge the Inner and Outer Worlds. This step is to cultivate the Primal Aperture at Mid-brows. If you succeed, you can sense the Heaven and Earth and cause some changes in the sky. This is called the Half-step Exterior Scenery. After that, you can merge the Inner and Outer Worlds and advance to the Exterior. "
"Duo Ercha was in this realm last time. You haven't fought with him, so you don't know that when his spirit attacked us, we felt like the Heavenly Tribulation and the Five Thunders would strike us at any time. If I hadn't opened the Eye Aperture and could see through the illusion, I wouldn't have been able to hurt him. Even so, I suffered a lot."
"The so-called Secret Chamber of Spirit should be the Hidden Latch, the residence of the Vital Spirit."
"As for the Middle Elixir Field and Lower Elixir Field, there are steps to condense them in the process of opening the Nine Apertures."
"You haven't read the enlightenment period's skills. No wonder you don't understand."
Mengqi didn't interrupt. He listened attentively to Jiang Zhiwei's explanation. It was just as he had guessed.
When Jiang Zhiwei finished, Mengqi thought for a moment and said, "Zhiwei, the world I've been to this time has a unique way. It can condense the Lower Elixir Field, Middle Elixir Field, and open the Primal Aperture at Mid-brows without the enlightenment of the Apertures."
Jiang Zhiwei showed a rare look of surprise. "Is there such a thing? The body can't bear the backlash of breaking the Hidden Latch of Life and Death and stepping on the Bridge of Heaven and Earth. "
The world that she and Meng Qi belonged to had produced Taoist Primogenitors and Buddhas, as well as many immortals and gods. There were countless geniuses and amazing people. Many of them had tried to bypass the Nine Innate Apertures and directly cultivate the Hidden Latch between the eyebrows. They believed that the physical body would eventually decay and only the spirit and Vital Spirit could survive. So why not abandon the physical body and directly cultivate the spirit?
However, similar attempts had all failed, leaving only a warning, "Thousands of Nether Spirits can't enter the Sage Realm."
Before Mengqi could answer, Jiang Zhiwei frowned and said doubtfully, "Could it be that the body is tempered by the Upstanding Qi, Evil Qi, Ice Crystal, and Fire Spirit, and other exotic minerals and produce so that it can bear the backlash? But it's too wasteful, and it also cuts off the path of future cultivation. "
Because in this way, the body would become something similar to a Heavenly Weapon or a Magic Treasure, and could no longer follow the normal path of cultivation. Of course, when one reached the Exterior Realm, he would definitely condense exotic minerals and produce to deepen the interaction and connection with heaven and earth, and enhance the power of his moves. But these were completely different ideas and Dharma Access.
"No, they directly cultivated." Mengqi increasingly felt that the world where Duan Xiangfei and Cui Xu lived was a little strange.
Jiang Zhiwei pursed her lips and said with a little distress, "I can't think of why. Strange, strange."
"Anyway, I see that they are still alive and kicking, without any backlash." Mengqi also felt puzzled, "Why don't you take a look at this skill and see what's going on?"
Compared to Jiang Zhiwei, Mengqi's understanding of the enlightenment period was too shallow.
"Show me? Then the Karma points you can exchange will be halved. "Jiang Zhiwei frowned and said.
If Mengqi shared the "Transformation Strategy" with others, the Karma points he could exchange for the "Transformation Strategy" would be halved for each person he shared it with, and the other person couldn't exchange the "Transformation Strategy" for Karma points to teach others, unless he got it through other channels.
Mengqi was about to say that it was okay, but Jiang Zhiwei suddenly laughed, "Anyway, I'm very interested in this Dharma Access that can open the Hidden Latch between the eyebrows without practicing the Nine Innate Acupores. When the time comes, I'll make up for the Karma points you lost."
Seeing that Mengqi was going to decline modestly, she quickly added, "Brothers should be fair. I don't want us to turn against each other because of similar things in the future."
"All right." Facing the generous Jiang Zhiwei, Mengqi naturally couldn't refuse, so he handed the "Transformation Strategy" to her.
Jiang Zhiwei took the script, smoothed her hair, and roughly flipped through it. After a while, she said with annoyance and amusement, "So that's what it is!"
"Hmm?" Mengqi waited for her explanation.
Jiang Zhiwei said with a strange smile, "Because it hasn't opened the Hidden Latch between the eyebrows at all."
"Ah?" Mengqi was shocked.
Jiang Zhiwei calmed herself down and said with a smile, "This Dharma Access is only at the preliminary stage. It stimulates the Primal Aperture to produce all kinds of miracles, but it hasn't really been opened, so there's no backlash. If you want to directly open the Hidden Latch, your body will also be rebounded by the external world. You'll either be seriously injured and hard to heal, or you'll be directly annihilated, leaving only a wisp of spirit or Nether Spirit."
In Mengqi's world, ordinary people's Vital Spirit and spirit would quickly return to heaven and earth as long as they weren't big powers above the Exterior level. As for whether they would disappear directly or there would be a hell in the dark, no one knew.
Of course, if the environment was special and the opportunity was coincidental, there was no lack of Nether Spirits left by ordinary people below the level of big powers. That was another life. However, Nether Spirits were fragile and didn't live long. After another "death", they would completely disappear.
"In other words, the preliminary stage of the Primal Aperture between the eyebrows will bring the ability to interfere with the enemy's five senses and create illusions?" Mengqi wasn't disappointed. Instead, he became happy.
Jiang Zhiwei nodded. "Yes. If it is stimulated and condensed again, and the Hidden Latch has not been opened, then it may have the ability to change the weather in a small area. Of course, it will be far inferior to Duo Ercha's."
"Yes, there is such a rumor in that world!" Mengqi exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Zhiwei laughed self-deprecatingly. "Just as I expected. For us, the only purpose of cultivating the Primal Aperture between the eyebrows is to open the Hidden Latch of life and death. The methods and Dharma Access are all designed for this purpose. We never thought about the problem of stimulation. However, they may have never thought about the Hidden Latch of life and death. They fumbled step by step and found another way. This is the so-called 'darkness under the lamp'. "
She paused and said, "This skill can be practiced at the same time. Not only will it bring about all kinds of miracles, but it will also make it much easier to open the Hidden Latch of life and death in the future."
"Yes!" This was what Mengqi was happy about.
Before his voice died away, two more milky white light pillars appeared in the square. Mengqi and Jiang Zhiwei looked at each other and relaxed at the same time.
"We can discuss what to exchange." Jiang Zhiwei said to Mengqi with a smile.
