Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 24 Innate Jian Mu

24: Chapter 24: Innate Jian Mu

24 -24: Innate Jian Mu

Jiang Chen took a cursory glance, noting that these bookshelves surprisingly took up two-thirds of the area in the Great Qin treasury.

Besides the central core region and the area surrounding it where the Qin crossbows were placed, the rest of the space was occupied by bookshelves.

Picking up a bamboo scripture at random, Jiang Chen opened it to find it contained Confucian classics.

With this discovery, Jiang Chen was intrigued.

Putting down the bamboo scripture, he picked out a few more, to find they also contained Confucian classics.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen left the spot and proceeded towards another shelf, where he found the classic texts of the School of War.

Moving on, Jiang successively discovered classic texts of the School of Legalism, School of Tao, and the School of Mohism, among others.

Clearly, these books represented the collection of classic texts from the Hundred Schools of Thought that the Qin State had gathered over the generations.

This was indeed a great wealth!

The backgrounds of these founding figures from the Hundred Schools of Thought were legendary – they were said to be reincarnations of the Great Divine Transcendents.

Therefore, the works they left behind could not be something ordinary, could they?

They could either be their comprehension of the Great Dao or some secret Divine Abilities.

Jiang Chen even saw the establishment process of the Great Qin arrow formation within the classic books of the School of War.

In the scriptures of the Gongshu Family, he saw the manufacturing process of the Qin crossbows.

In the Taoist scriptures, he saw the sage’s views on the Great Dao.

And so on… it was too much to count.

Even these few moments had proven greatly beneficial to Jiang Chen.

If he could read and comprehend all of the classics here, he might instantly become an Immortal from the Heavenly Immortal Dao.

But as of now, where would he find the time to leisurely read these classics from the Hundred Schools of Thought?

Hence, Jiang Chen directly packed these texts.

He decided to bring them back home and read them at his own leisure later on.

Whilst collecting these books, Jiang Chen also found that aside from the texts from the Hundred Schools of Thought, there were a few relating to the history of various nations.

These included their heritage, martial arts, and even some secret information about the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty.

It seemed like after their demise, the books gathered by the six nations were also stored here by the Qin State.

The book collection of the Zhou Dynasty was also kept here.

He recalled that the Zhou Dynasty had also been wiped out by the Qin.

Hence, their legacy was naturally inherited by the Great Qin.

The Zhou Dynasty was the closest in time period to the Ancient Times.

Shang, the last dynasty of the Ancient Times, was brought down by the Zhou.

The book collection of the Zhou Dynasty probably had many records about the Shang Dynasty and even the Ancient Times.

These books would definitely need to be looked into in detail later on.

Whilst in his previous life, myths remained myths.

However, in this world, myths were events that had once happened.

Thus, when tracing the history in this world, one might discover opportunities buried in history.

Having made sure that he took all the books and had not left out anything, Jiang Chen continued on his way.

Ahead, it was the core of the Great Qin treasury.

Provided there were no surprises, the most precious treasure in the Great Qin treasury should be there.

Something like the National Treasure of the Nine Tripods of Xia Yu or the twelve golden men created by the Great Qin from the world’s weapons could be there.

Among these two treasures, especially the former, the Nine Tripod that suppressed the Nine States.

If Jiang Chen got hold of it, with the help of the Fate that he possessed, he could make a great fortune and reach the pinnacle of the Ancient Martial Arts as quickly as possible.

Even becoming a Daluo Daoist and reaching an achievement that rivals the Three Emperors and Five Kings is not impossible.

Even if he does not get the Nine Tripod, obtaining the twelve golden men is also good.

The twelve golden men created from the world’s weapons, just thinking about it, these twelve golden men are undoubtedly a killing treasure.

If they could protect his path, the future of Jiang Chen would be worry-free.

Thinking so far, Jiang Chen could not control his excitement.

A major opportunity was right in front of him, who could keep calm?

Jiang Chen is human, naturally, he could not.

…

…

With an excited heart, Jiang Chen arrived at the center of the Great Qin treasury.

But instead of seeing the Nine Tripods and the twelve golden men of Great Qin as he had imagined, he saw a giant tree, hundreds of feet tall!

It was peculiar, this giant tree was hundreds of feet tall, yet Jiang Chen only noticed its existence upon reaching this point.

Before this, he hadn’t realized this tree was here at all.

A height of hundreds of feet was already substantial, equivalent to several kilometers high, and should be eye-catching.

There was no reason why Jiang Chen shouldn’t have noticed it from such a close distance.

There must definitely be something strange about this.

Thinking so, Jiang Chen began to carefully examine this tree.

But even upon closer inspection, the tree only appeared stranger to him.

This giant tree, while being hundreds of feet high, gave Jiang Chen the impression of being infinitely tall.

It seemed as though the tree connected directly with Heaven and Earth, towering and magnificent.

Well, this tree was definitely not just any tree – it was an Innate Divine Tree.

Looking closer, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but find the tree familiar.

It seemed as though he had seen an image of this tree somewhere before.

The tree was tall without branches, the top and bottom were filled with twisted branches and roots.

Its leaves were mesh-like and green in color…

As he looked at the giant tree, Jiang Chen felt a growing sense of familiarity.

His memories from the past seemed to flash through his mind-like horse lanterns.

Soon, Jiang Chen remembered where this sense of familiarity had originated from – it was from a book, a book that recorded Innate Divine Trees.

The giant tree before his eyes was highly similar to an Innate Divine Tree described in the book.

The Innate Jian Mu, one of the ten great Innate Spirit Roots, was a communication tree between Heaven and the Mortal Realm in the ancient era.

The giant tree before Jiang Chen can’t help but be the Jian Mu from the legends.

Of course, there was no way it was the original Jian Mu.

It was likely a fragment transformed from the original.

In the initial days of the ancient era, the original Jian Mu was cut down by an unnamed ruthless person.

Jian Mu that emerged in the later generations were all transformed from this fragment.

Moreover, there was a rumor that Jiang Chen thought of, which immediately confirmed the identity of the tree as the Innate Jian Mu.

The Great Shang, actually had an Innate Jian Mu.

Just as the Great Xia used the Nine Tripods to suppress their Fate, the Great Shang had a Jian Mu to suppress their own Fate.

However, the news that the Great Shang had an Innate Jian Mu was not as well-known as the fact that the Great Xia had the Nine Tripods.

In fact, this news had been deliberately suppressed.

The reason for that had to do with a certain rumor. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

According to the rumor, during the height of the Shang Dynasty, a Shang Emperor, dissatisfied with the deity governing human fate, had used Jian Mu as a ladder, led his army to Heaven Court, and tried to overthrow Tiandi and take its place.

The result was naturally, a failure.

The Shang Emperor of that time died directly under divine punishment, and the Innate Jian Mu even broke into pieces because of this.
