The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 154: Heavenly God Position, Human Immortal Position, Earthly God Position (asking for monthly ticket)
"Five-Character True Text... or the Five-Character True Text that is about to be promoted to the Jade-Character Golden Book."

The moment he saw the cyan gold scroll, Lu Chen knew what the cyan light was.

It is the five-talisman text that represents the existence of the god!
Lu Chen had seen records about the Five Talismans True Text in the classics of the Louguan School.

The most common styles are tokens, scrolls, jade seals, etc.

However, no matter how the form changes, it is essentially a deity.

At this time, the City God of Lantian seemed to have noticed something was wrong. Countless distorted faces began to become chaotic. This showed that he had discovered the crisis. The illusion of the Guizang Compass was almost unable to trap the consciousness of the City God of Lantian.

The Five Talismans Scroll was flickering with green light and vibrating continuously. He wanted to escape, but it was too late.

Lu Chen's other hand formed into a claw and inserted one claw into the body of Lantian City God, accurately grabbing the Five Talismans True Text.

"How dare you! Thief! Take your dirty hands off me!"

The City God of Lantian completely broke away from the illusion of Guizang Compass, and countless distorted human faces roared terrifyingly at Lu Chen.

The twisted human faces around the Five Talismans Text entangled with each other, tightly wrapping the scroll, while the dozen arms of the Lantian City God also covered it downwards.

A moment of life and death!

As long as Lu Chen cannot take away the Five Talismans, the Lantian City God's arm can quickly fill the broken hole.

If Lu Chen didn't want to be swallowed by him, he had to loosen his hand!

But Lu Chen naturally would not give up this opportunity.

Inside the Purple Palace, Lu Chen’s Yin Spirit opened his eyes.

Then he entered the most core position suppressed by the purple energy, and forcibly extracted a ray of golden light from the suppressed golden light.

The ball of golden light quickly condensed in Lu Chen's hand, and in an instant it turned into a small seventh-grade golden lotus.

At this moment, the majestic and mighty Buddhist sounds began to ring in Lu Chen's ears.

This is the aftereffect of Jinlian escaping from suppression.

Hearing these Buddhist sounds, Lu Chen's Yin spirit fluctuated for a moment, and for no reason he had the idea of ​​converting to Buddhism.

"Buddhist things are even scarier than these ghosts."

Lu Chen knew the brainwashing effect of the golden lotus, so he did not hesitate and directly lifted the golden lotus out of his body and threw it into the abdominal cavity of the Lantian City God.

As soon as the golden lotus appeared in the outside world, it directly affected the spiritual charm of heaven and earth.

The Buddha's light shot up into the sky, instantly illuminating the dark and gloomy environment.

The golden light emitted by the golden lotus spread for who knows how far, as if a small sun appeared within the Yin-Yang Realm.

Faintly, a vague shadow of a Buddha sitting on a lotus appeared quietly in the void.

The hideous and distorted expressions on the faces of countless monsters, ghosts and spirits shrouded in golden light disappeared, and became extremely gentle. They all prostrated themselves on the ground, put their hands together, and chanted "Praise to Namo Ruchen Tathagata Buddha".

Lu Chen listened to the twitching of his mouth and was speechless.

However, his Yin Spirit also quickly returned to his body.

With the barrier of the physical body, and the influence of the morning glow purple energy and Taibai Jade Sceptre in his body, the golden lotus Buddhist sound transformed from a ray of golden light had little effect on him.

On the other side, the golden lotus wandered around the body of the Lantian City God, but had no intention of staying. It seemed to be very disgusted and wanted to return to Lu Chen's body.

The purple air of the morning glow instantly rose into the sky, and the purple light enveloped Lu Chen.

Jinlian wanted to enter, but seemed to be afraid of the purple aura of the morning glow on Lu Chen's body.

Therefore, it just circled around Lu Chen for a few times, and then helplessly turned into a ball of golden light, broke through the air, and disappeared in an instant.

It only took a short breath of time from the appearance of the golden lotus to its escape.

But during this one breath of time, the Lantian City God did not move at all. The countless distorted human faces on his body all appeared very peaceful during this one breath.

The ferocious look turned into a gentle one, and he kept chanting Buddhist scriptures.

But after Jinlian flew away, these peaceful states gradually disappeared.

The Lantian City God seemed to have regained consciousness at this time and wanted to move forward again.

But it's too late.

It was just a delay of a breath, and Lu Chen had already grabbed the Five Talismans in both hands and stepped on the body of the Lantian City God with both feet, as if he was pulling a carrot.

The body suddenly burst out with great force.

"come out!"

"Tear!"

A clear tearing sound was heard.

The Five Talismans were forcibly pulled off the body of the Lantian City God by Lu Chen.

Lu Chen fell to the ground, his magic power exhausted, and he staggered to the ground.

At this moment, he had very little magic power left, and the tiger strength in his body had been consumed to the limit. It can be said that Lu Chen was extremely empty at this moment.

"How dare you..."

The Lantian City God left his last words, and the next moment, a ghost separated from the Lantian City God.

Then, two, three... countless others!

In just a blink of an eye, the body of the Lantian City God fell apart like a falling domino!

The ghosts turned into black smoke, dancing in the air and flying aimlessly.

Some of them collided with each other and began to fight and devour each other. After a while, some of the ghosts grew stronger.

The monsters and ghosts in the back were all stunned at this time.

The ghost messengers with the soul-locking chain in their hands can also use it to protect themselves and resist the ghosts.

However, the ghost messengers who did not have the soul-locking chains in their hands were rushed by these ghosts and were instantly swallowed up by them with screams.

It's a scene of demons dancing wildly!
Lu Chen ignored the chaos and just took the Guizang Compass in his hand, allowing his body to enter the illusion.

Then he sent out several paper figures to guard him.

After taking the Five Talismans Text in his hand, he knew that this was not the end.

The Five Talismans True Text has not yet been truly mastered by him.

There is also a human face on it, but this face looks very peaceful and has already merged with the Five Talismans True Text.

It happened that Lu Chen's magic power was exhausted at this time. Although his soul could return to the human world by traveling through the Yin-Yang realm, his body could not go back. He could only recover his magic power while checking the Five Talismans Text.

"According to the Taoist scriptures of Louguan Sect, the term Five Talismans is not actually very accurate. The name Five Talismans comes from the "Taishang Dongxuan Lingbao Five Talismans True Scripture", also known as "Lingbao Five Talismans" and "Lingbao Sutra". It is the Taoist Lingbao Sect's sect-defining true scripture and is also ranked as a top-grade Qingyao Zishu divine scroll."

"However, after Ge Xuan obtained the Five Talismans Sutra, he divided the power of the Purple Book Divine Position into the Blue Scroll Divine Position, creating a third level of Divine Position besides Purple and Gold. Therefore, to commemorate this achievement, the Five Talismans Sutra, like the 'Blue Essential Purple Book' and the 'Jade Character Golden Book', has also become a synonym for the Divine Position."

That’s right, the Five Talismans True Text in Lu Chen’s hand is called the Five Talismans True Text, but in fact it is the Green Scroll Divine Position!

There are three kinds of god positions: purple, gold, and green, and the one in Lu Chen's hand is one of them.

Even the two ends are emitting golden color, which means that the deity has begun to upgrade its status and will soon be promoted to the Golden Book Deity with Jade Characters and Golden Book!

According to the records of the Louguan School, as long as the primordial spirit and the deity are merged, the corresponding power can be obtained.

For example, if the Five Talismans are fully integrated, one can become a wizard, but the level of integration with the divine position requires at least a wizard.

Otherwise, even the soul would not be able to sense it, so few mages would choose to integrate the Five Talismans when they are young and strong.

If one completely integrates into the Jade and Golden Book, one can become a True Immortal, and if one completely integrates into the Green and Purple Book, one can become a True Lord!

For example, the current Tianshi Mansion's Tianshi Kou Qianzhi, because his physical body has not died and is still alive in the world, his soul cannot be completely integrated with the Qingyao Purple Book he holds - "Lu Tu Zhenjing", so he can only practice as a real person under the blessing of the deity.

The fundamental reason why he wanted to build the Dao Kingdom on the ground was that he wanted to completely merge with the "Recorded Map Sutra" while his body was still alive, to help him achieve the position of Changsheng Zhenjun! Lu Chen naturally did not need to merge with the divine position.

The important reason why this world wants to merge even the lowest Qingjuan God Position is that the God Position can allow the soul of the practitioner to achieve immortality.

If it was a green and purple book, Lu Chen might have to consider whether to merge them.

After all, according to legend, there are only twelve Qing Yao Zi books, and they have been passed down from ancient times to the present day. Each one represents the inheritance of a true ancient god.

The complete fusion of the primordial spirit and the Qingyao Zishu can lead to the achievement of the Changsheng Zhenjun level, but it does not mean that one can only achieve the Changsheng Zhenjun level in the end.

Of course, Changsheng Zhenjun is already very remarkable.

In the system of Journey to the West that Lu Chen practiced, the divine status of Qing Yao Zi Shu should at least correspond to the level of Yang Shen Dacheng after the pill is formed.

When the Yang God reaches perfection, it is the pinnacle of the immortals on earth. Going further up, one becomes the patriarch of the immortals and the supreme celestial immortal.

But it was just a divine scroll at the level of five true symbols. To be honest, Lu Chen didn't think much of it.

To him, the cultivation system of this world is inherently problematic.

If you cultivate your nature but not your destiny, even a ghost that has lived for ten thousand years will find it difficult to become a saint!

He practices cultivation in order to attain immortality, not false immortality like the City God of Lantian.

If he just wanted to simply live forever and didn't care about self-awareness, he would have already turned to Buddhism and become his own Namo Ruchen Buddha in the world of Journey to the West. Why would he bother with this extra effort?

Looking at the face on the scroll, Lu Chen already knew that the owner of this face was the true identity of the Lantian City God.

So while recovering his magic power, he asked in a cold voice: "Who are you? Tell me your name and surname truthfully. If you lie, I will kill you."

"Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist. My name is Song. I lived during the time when King Wu conquered King Zhou. When I was young, I studied Yi. Later, I got a copy of the "Art of Taking Five Spirits" and entered the Taoist path. Later, I got a chance and obtained the position of the Earth God, so I entered this place."

The face looked at Lu Chen with obvious vigilance and explained his origins in detail.

Lu Chen frowned: "At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, there were also words like 'Daoyou'?"

The man with the human face said, "That's not the case, but the term 'Daoyou' has existed since ancient times. The term 'Pindao' is something I learned from the memories of other ghosts."

This made sense. Lu Chen nodded and continued to ask, "The Earth God's Throne is the Five Talismans Text that you are possessed by now?"

"Yes."

As if knowing Lu Chen's doubts, the man with the human face seemed to know, and said, "Since ancient times, the position of heavenly gods and the position of human immortals can be divided into the position of earthly gods. Oh, the position of heavenly gods is the current Qing Yao Zi Shu, and the position of human immortals is the Jade Character Gold Book. These names are just different names. This is normal. The practitioners in different places have different sects, so naturally they have different names. The names of heavenly gods and human immortals are just the names given to them by the Qigong practitioners in the Central Plains during the Shang and Zhou dynasties."

Lu Chen nodded. Times are changing and the names are changing too. This is normal.

Lu Chen asked again: "How did the name of Earth God come about?"

"The Heavenly God and Human Immortal only need to consume their own power to differentiate into the Earthly God. However, the blessing power of the Earthly God for practitioners is very weak, so few Heavenly God and Human Immortal are willing to differentiate their own power."

The human-faced man said very cooperatively, "The Earthly God Rank is not like the Heavenly God Rank and the Human Immortal Rank, which are naturally produced by heaven and earth. Because it is created after birth, if the Earthly God Rank cannot be upgraded during use, it will naturally be damaged. Therefore, after the Heavenly God and the Human Immortal disappeared in ancient times, the Earthly Gods gradually dissipated, and few people knew the origin of the Earthly God Rank."

"Since the Han Dynasty, when Ge Xuan of the Lingbao Sect knew that the Heavenly God Position and the Human Immortal Position would separate the Earthly God Position, he spread the news and let all the practitioners in the world know the existence of the Earthly God Position. Therefore, the Earthly God Position used the name of the Lingbao Five Talismans of the Heavenly God Position in Ge Xuan's hand to spread the name of the Earthly God Position as the Five Talismans True Text..."

The human-faced man has obviously lived for a very long time, and he has absorbed the memories of countless ghosts, so he knows a lot of information.

He sorted out an ancient lineage and the inheritance of the divine position for Lu Chen.

"The position of the gods in heaven, the position of the immortals in human beings, and the position of the gods in the earth."

Lu Chen muttered softly.

The names of heavenly gods, human immortals, and earthly gods are simple and clear when used in correspondence.

"Why did the celestial gods and immortals appear? Where did those ancient celestial gods and immortals go?"

Even though in the human world, the highest level of power now seems to be just the realm of true humans.

But Lu Chen always remembered that this world was the world of the gourd brothers, and among the gourd brothers, there were several ten-thousand-year-old monsters.

This is not something that can be achieved by the human immortal realm. The lifespan of a human immortal is 500 years. Here it refers to 500 years of tribulations, and the maximum duration of each tribulation is 500 years.

And if the time to overcome the three disasters is 500 years each, then the lifespan of a human immortal would only be 1,500 years.

When one reaches the realm of immortals on earth, the maximum lifespan is only ten thousand years.

How about saying long live?

Only the true celestial beings, the gods and immortals, can live for more than ten thousand years.

If one wants to truly be as old as the heaven and earth, and as long-lived as the sun and the moon, then only celestial beings can do it.

According to the setting in Calabash Brothers, the snake demon should be in the realm of immortals, with a lifespan of more than ten thousand years, but it has not transcended life and death.

Even if you reach the realm of immortals, you will still die!

However, the lifespan of gods is at least calculated in tens of thousands of years.

And the god who could easily suppress the snake demon and also save the Calabash Brothers must be a powerful being at least in the celestial realm.

"I don't know either, only legends have been passed down."

The human-faced man replied, "Legend has it that in ancient times, there were twelve gods and thirty-six immortals in the world, who worked together to maintain the order of heaven and earth. However, for some unknown reason, the gods and immortals all disappeared overnight, leaving only the twelve gods and thirty-six immortals in this world."

"A cultivator's primordial spirit can become a living immortal god if it merges with the celestial god or the human immortal. Regardless of whether it is the celestial god or the human immortal, it can consume its own power and separate into the earthly god. However, the celestial god can separate a part of its power in a hundred years, while the human immortal takes longer than the celestial god... This is all I know, and I am not very clear about the rest. Those histories are too long ago, tens of thousands of years ago."

Although the original body of the human-faced pine was also a cultivator who had existed since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, it has been thousands of years since then.

But it is still a long way from the ancient times.

Before him, the ancient gods and immortals had left this world for who knows how many years.

"In that case, you are of no use to me?"

In Lu Chen's palm holding the scroll of the Earth God, the fluctuations of magic power began to condense.

"Fellow Taoist, wait!"

Seeing this, Ren Liansong said hurriedly: "Daoyou, please listen to me. I have no ill will towards you. I am the City God of Lantian, but I am not the City God of Lantian. Moreover, if those ghosts with distorted consciousness are not dealt with, they will soon become monsters..."

"Ah!"

Lu Chen was amused when he heard this: "How dare you call others monsters?"

The man's face was relaxed and he didn't look embarrassed. He just said helplessly, "I had good intentions at that time. I wanted to bear the pain of the ghosts with my own body, but I overestimated myself. I didn't check myself for a moment, and the ghosts' resentment invaded my soul. I really thought I was a god. However, that was an external cognition. Now that I am free from the shackles, I know I was wrong and I sincerely admit my mistakes. But I did not lie. If I let these ghosts slaughter at will, new monsters will definitely emerge."

"Will there be a demon stronger than when you were the City God of Lantian?" Lu Chen asked.

"That...is not the case."

After hesitating for a moment, the man with the human face said immediately, "However, if we allow these demons to grow, there will be no living space for ghosts in the Yin-Yang Realm. I am afraid that after a few hundred years, a big demon will be born here, and then the world will be in disaster."

"Hundreds of years?"

Lu Chen was speechless.

The man with the human face continued, "I know what you are thinking. If you don't want me to, you can stay here and I will continue to suppress these ghosts. Although the appearance of the Lantian City God was not my original intention, the Lantian City God has a divine position after all. He has been here for hundreds and thousands of years and has never disturbed the human world."

Lu Chen sneered when he heard this: "You mean to say that those monsters who went to the human world to fight and kill people not long ago were all fake?"

"..."

Ren Liansong was silent. He had forgotten about this matter, but he still refuted: "The Lantian City God is dedicated to suppressing ghosts. Daoist friend, you have entered the Yin-Yang Dharma Realm twice without reason, which is considered to be a violation of the Heavenly Law recorded in the God's Position. The first time you can be considered unintentional, but the second time you enter, if the Lantian City God does not surrender and capture you, you will inevitably be retaliated by the God's Position, so..."

"Stop talking so much nonsense."

Lu Chen frowned: "I have finally suppressed the Lantian City God, how can I revive him? Besides, why do you think I will believe you?"

The human face sighed and said, "I know I have committed serious sins, but the Yin-Yang Realm has existed since ancient times. After the ancient gods disappeared, the heaven and the underworld also disappeared, leaving only the cave heaven and the Yin-Yang Realm in the human world. The cave heaven is fine, but those dead ghosts cannot enter the underworld and can only exist in the human world or enter the Yin-Yang Realm. Once there are too many of them, trouble is bound to occur."
