Chapter 2 Digital Secrets

"Oh no! This is a very dangerous place, and I just rashly came in!" Zixia felt awe-inspiring.

With her level of Dao Palace realm, she didn't even notice the movement of the mountain here.

Zixia silently recited the "Tao Te Ching" in her heart, and her fluctuating mood gradually calmed down. She was neither happy nor worried, with a kind of detached indifference. It seemed that she was not in an unknown predicament, but rather watching the flowers bloom and fall, and the clouds roll and unfold.

Slowly, she sensed the fluctuations of external vital energy and regained her affinity with the Great Dao. She even saw clearly the abnormality of the place.

The mountains are like nimble giants, moving at an astonishing speed, forming a mysterious and unpredictable formation.

The movement of the mountain array is random, sometimes as fast as a storm, sometimes silent and unpredictable. The peaks shuttle back and forth like ghosts, like countless three-body galaxies moving disorderly in chaos. Every movement is full of uncertainty, and the crisis of annihilation may come at any time.

Zixia stood quietly on a mountain peak, drifting with the movement of the mountain array. Her eyes fell on the two peaks that were colliding from afar. The two mountains collided violently, without sound, without smoke, and disappeared in an instant, and merged again into a more majestic mountain.

In this ever-changing mountain array, everything seemed so wonderful and unpredictable. Zixia felt as if she was in a universe full of endless possibilities.

"We can't stay here for long!" Zixia's hands were as white as jade, and her ten fingers were slender and crystal clear like water onions. They flew up and down, evolving a way to break the impasse, and she was constantly comprehending the "Tao Te Ching" in her heart.

Slowly, purple footprints appeared in the sky.

That's right! The trapped are always eager to break free from the constraints in front of them, but they find themselves in a maze, unable to find the exit no matter how hard they try. They struggle in a narrow field of vision but cannot see the overall situation.

Only by raising your vision and transcending the current limitations can you look at the entire situation from a broader perspective. Only in this way can you understand the key to the dilemma and find a way to break through.

Zixia followed the footprints in the void and took steps in a mysterious way. Every step she took gave people a feeling of following the laws of nature, as if she had avoided the constraints of some rules!

Like flowing clouds, like blowing wind, it moves left and right, making it impossible to capture its trace and it is so natural.

As Zixia took the last step, the outline of the dilemma became clear, and the movement of every mountain and the pattern of every change were all in sight.

The black gourd flew out from the sea of ​​suffering. Zixia pulled out the gourd plug and waved the plug to emit chaotic light at several inconspicuous nodes.

There was silence all around, not a single sound, but the hills were still moving. However, the movement now seemed to have a strange rhythm, no longer the chaotic movement before. Gradually, everything became regular.

A narrow and winding path gradually appeared in the moving hills. At the end of the path, a strange stone tablet stood out, emitting a mysterious light.

Zixia remained calm and walked slowly along the path following the steps Laozi had taken. Gradually, she found herself in a wonderful state, becoming one with the heaven and earth, and before she knew it, she arrived in front of the stone tablet.

What is recorded on the stone tablet is not words but more like a rune.

The runes on it have smooth lines and natural patterns. They are intertwined to form mysterious and complex patterns.

Careful observation revealed that each stroke on the rune seemed to contain a certain pattern. They were either curved or straight, intertwined or scattered, as if telling a very simple way of calculation. Zixia activated her whole body's divine power, her brows glowed, and the seal of Tao shone like a star! Her body and Tao merged briefly. Her heart was empty and she became one with the world.

The runes glowed brighter, as if they were awakened from their slumber.

It was an inexplicable rhythm of Taoism flowing, which seemed extremely mysterious. No sound was heard, no waves were rippled, but only a strange charm was manifested on the stone tablet.

This is the digital secret, one of the nine secrets, and it has finally appeared in the world again.

The secret of numbers was created by the Lord of Daode, one of the nine celestial masters in the mythological era, who was also the predecessor of Laozi.

It has a great power. When it is running, it can deduce everything and reach the origin.

Just like the secret of the character "行", if practiced to a deep level, it can involve the power of time. And the secret of the number, if practiced to a deep level, can help people understand the essence of the world, and even master the indescribable thing of fate.

Zixia imitated Laozi and touched the stone tablet. The strange charm was also firmly imprinted in her consciousness. Suddenly, her face changed slightly: "There are words on the back!"

These were nine very special ancient characters. No matter how close she was to Taoism, she could not fathom their meaning. “Are these the nine characters for Emperor in the Taoist scriptures?!” It was very likely that this was the place where the Lord of Dao and Laozi had once stayed.

The mark of Tao shot out from between the eyebrows, scanning continuously and remembering it deeply in the heart.

"These nine ancient characters..." At this moment, a light flashed through Zixia's mind, and she suddenly thought of a way to control the black gourd.

Then Zixia imitated Ye Fan's method of using the "instrument" to suppress his body in the ancient forbidden land to resist aging and achieve "eternity" to control the black gourd.

Although there is no weapon refining method in the Daoist Scripture, there is a similar weapon refining method recorded in the Ziwei Scripture. He silently recited the Daodejing, and the digital secret was constantly deduced. According to the ancient method recorded in the Ziwei Scripture, nine strange ancient characters were imprinted in the gourd. They were arranged again and again, and the nine ancient characters were finally perfectly imprinted inside. Suddenly, there was a terrible magic power that could change the world, and the gourd became chaotic and hazy. The originally dead and boundless universe inside was disturbed, as if it had come to the beginning of the world.

It seems that I have to collect more ancient characters from the Emperor's Scripture to help restore the black gourd, and I must see the bronze coffin!

This black gourd should be a supreme weapon, a quasi-imperial weapon at the lower limit, and an ancient imperial weapon at the upper limit, Zixia speculated. It appeared in the ancient divine war, and was said to be able to kill immortals, but it was destroyed. Unlike the Taiyin Human Emperor Seal, it only has a corner missing, and the imperial power still exists. The black gourd has been completely stripped of its spiritual energy. Although it looks intact, it is like a dead god, and its power is sometimes there and sometimes not. But this is just right for Zixia to refine it again and make it truly her own weapon!

The black gourd was simple and natural. It slowly expanded to 2 meters high in the cave, and then took itself in and protected itself inside.

Finally, I no longer need to use the gourd plug to fight the enemy. Although it cannot emit the innate sword energy and cut through everything in the world, I can use it to attack. It can attack or defend, and it is really a must-have artifact for home robbery.

After the black gourd collected the person, it began to spin in the air. Zixia sat cross-legged inside the gourd, using her magic power to start refining the black gourd.

As time went by, a mysterious purple glow gradually appeared on the black gourd. Zixia could feel that the black gourd had established a connection with her, as if it had become a part of her body.

Zixia tried to control the black gourd. It flew out of her sea of ​​suffering, and a black light flashed across, smashing the mountains and rivers in the distance.
