Struggle in the Steam Age
Chapter 228: content
"This stone tablet should be the treasure of the extraordinary genre where the commander of the base ship was located." Lawrence said, pointing to the stone tablet on the coffee table. Through inquiries in the study these days, Lawrence discovered that the army of the Peacock Empire to the New World was actually a group of miscellaneous soldiers who wanted to make money.
In other words, this group of people are guys organized by a number of extraordinary genres to come and grab a hand. Therefore, when the main force is dispatched, they will naturally take the objects that are related to the survival of the genre with them, to avoid being snatched by the enemy while the main force is not at home.
But what they didn't expect was that the strength of both the extraordinary and the army here was much stronger than imagined. In the end, almost all the invaders were buried on the west coast of the New World. And the stone stele found by Lawrence and the others is the core knowledge of one of the extraordinary factions on the use of extraordinary powers.
"That group of Peacock Empire guys actually chose to carry such an important thing with them." Zhu Yan was surprised after hearing Lawrence's analysis, and then showed a relieved expression. "It's no wonder that after the end of the war, all the forces that participated in the war swelled a lot as if they broke out, and then I heard that several extraordinary forces on the Peacock Empire were destroyed. If you say that, everything can be explained. It works."
Zhu Yan's family can be regarded as the rising star of the New World Republic. When the war broke out, their family was still in the homeland. So I really don't understand the Missin inside.
"Yes, this kind of carrier that contains all the wisdom of an extraordinary genre is very precious to any intelligent creature." Lawrence lightly patted on the coffee table after Zhu Yan sighed with emotion. Then turned his head to look at him and said:
"As a modern person, I really should envy them after knowing what kind of wealth the group of warriors gained, but when I checked this stone monument, I didn't feel so envious, because I found this stone monument even if it was placed back then. Those things are considered top treasures: the extraordinary knowledge recorded on the stele is related to the caster."
"It's related to the caster!" Zhu Yan's eyes widened fiercely. For ordinary people, he might think that extraordinary power is extraordinary power, and there is no difference between them. But for the transcendent, there is a huge gap between casters and non-casters, and this gap is also reflected in all aspects. For example, the general knowledge related to the caster on the market is often two to three times the price of the knowledge of the non-caster of the same level, and it is often priceless.
"Yes." Seeing Zhu Yan's surprised expression, Lawrence nodded with a smile. "What is recorded on this stone tablet is the core knowledge of this spellcasting genre——"
Speaking of Lawrence slowly interpreting the content on the stele, according to the description of the text on the stele, the founder of this genre was an ascetic monk at first. During a meditation, his consciousness entered the spiritual world. In the depths of, and then encountered five very peculiar consciousness aggregates in the accident.
In addition to the material world, this world also has some worlds hidden under the material world. For example, some wanderers choose to hide themselves or use the shadow world for short-distance space jumps, and for example, some druids and some extraordinary people who can perceive and use the power of nature often use the Emerald Dream.
The spiritual world is also this kind of world. It is a world completely different from the real material world, a world composed of consciousness and information. Basically, every transcendent person will deal with the spiritual world. For example, Lawrence will feel the power of the spiritual world when he meditates every day.
Of course, for low-level transcendents like Lawrence, this type of world is just a simple background. If you want to take the initiative to get in touch, you must at least reach the level of the so-called silver transcendent in the classical era. After all, low-level transcendents are not strong enough in consciousness. If they are not supported by some specific transcendent items and led by high-level transcendents, they can easily be influenced or even assimilated by the spiritual world.
Naturally, there will be many very powerful beings in the spiritual world. But wanting to encounter these existences and communicate with them requires not only excellent luck, but also strong enough to penetrate deep enough into the spiritual world and insist on not getting lost in this most direct contact of will.
In other words, if the record on the stele is not bragging. Then the founder of this transcendent genre was at least a legendary spellcaster, and it is possible to imagine how precious the core knowledge passed on by this transcendent.
If it weren't for that war, it is likely that most people in that genre in the past would not have been qualified to see this stone monument in their lives, let alone let outsiders like Lawrence watch it.
So after Lawrence translated the first paragraph on the stele after dinner yesterday, the whole person immediately fell into a state of extreme excitement, and then simply gave up the rest and sleep time and translated the rest of the content. It wasn't until more than half an hour ago that he accurately translated all the content on the stele.
According to the description on the stone tablet, the five consciousness aggregates are earth, wind, ether, water and fire. When they were in contact with the ascetic, the ascetic felt a lot of things, and most of the entire stone stele recorded the ascetic's feelings from these consciousness aggregates.
For example, he felt from the earth the tolerance and attitude of the earth to embrace all things, and from it he understood that no matter what the outside world, he should stick to himself and tolerate those differences. From the wind, he learned that he should not be conservative and stubborn, and he needs to renew himself from time to time. At the same time, we must have a deep understanding of things as the wind penetrates into every corner instead of floating on the surface.
The ether is the purest, just like the sky. Every creature living in the earthly world is inevitably polluted by the outside world, but their core nature remains translucent and clear forever. same. Pursuing this true path is also the inner manifestation of a person's continuous improvement process.
The consciousness representing the water made him realize that people should keep progressing like the flow of water and cannot stand still. We must also moisturize and cleanse everyone around us like water.
Probably because flames are scary, the ascetic finally touched the consciousness that represents flames. But after contacting him, he discovered that the so-called flame burning everything is only one aspect, and the other aspect of the flame is burning and purifying all weakness, sin and impurity. And dispel the cold and gloom in people's hearts. Bring warmth, light and heat.
An extraordinary person, even an ordinary person, should be like a flame to clear away the panic and worry caused by ignorance in himself and others, and bring warmth and light to the soul.
At the same time, there is an in-depth analysis of the five elements by the founder on this stone tablet. For example, the ascetic monk believed that the fire element represents heat and strength, the water element represents flow and coolness, and the earth element represents stability. And reality, the wind element represents lightness and agility. The ether element is considered to be the mother of elements ~lightnovelpub.net~ means space, containment and intuition. Exist in everything.
In addition to the analysis of the elements themselves, the founder of the year also connected these elements with people. And use these philosophical thinking as the core to record a set of special meditation thoughts born out of these elemental philosophies and the application of external element power corresponding to that thought in meditation on the stone slab.
And such a stone tablet engraved with a complete set of records of extraordinary power is naturally a priceless treasure, and it is no wonder that the change of hands of this kind of thing can even determine the rise and fall of an extraordinary organization.
It's just that, judging from the traces on the stele, the most viewed is the application of elemental power, the second most is the meditation, and the philosophical aspect at the beginning of the stele seems to have never been seen before.
"The person who created an extraordinary inheritance should be a sage. It's a pity that his later successors forgot the teachings of the sages. So degenerate to abandon the correct route and choose to run here to invade and rob." After listening to Lawrence's response After the translation of the entire stone tablet, everyone was silent for a few seconds, and then Zhu Yan made a small summary.
"Compared with extraordinary knowledge, those moral and mental guidelines are actually more important to everyone. It's a pity that most people don't realize this."
