"This jade is called Shadow Stone, and it is a kind of artificial spiritual material that was quite common in ancient times."
"As far as Zhao Xue knows, it is made of a shadow stone as the core, washed and smelted by the evil spirit of killing."
"It is said that after this smelting, the image stone will undergo some kind of transformation. Even the ordinary image stone can be comparable to the sky mark crystal, and can imprint and record information that ordinary image stones cannot record."
"It's just that the method of refining this shadow stone has been lost in ancient times. Our ancestors have tried to match the shadow stone according to ancient records, but they have also failed."
"It is said that there is a lack of some kind of spiritual material that was only available in ancient times..."
"Shadow Stone..."
Chu Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at the flawless white stone tablet, obviously a little more surprised.
The preciousness of Tianhen crystal is naturally self-evident.
After all, in this world of immortality, there are too many mysteries that cannot be recorded by ordinary methods. Only the Skymark Crystal can record them perfectly.
Just like secular paper, its usefulness in the world of immortality is basically zero. Even the lowest level skills are often difficult to record on secular paper.
Even the spiritual paper in the world of immortality, unless it is some extremely special high-level spiritual paper, is often of extremely narrow use and can only be used to record some textual information. It is difficult to record some deeper mysteries.
As for jade slips and photo disks, information carriers made of inscription crystals and photo stones, which are spiritual materials with natural photo-recording properties, are almost universal in the world of immortality and are available to everyone.
But this commonness is often due to its cheap existence, and its uses are only wider than spiritual paper.
Recording some ordinary skills and techniques can still be useful, but if it involves the mysteries of essence, energy, and spirit, or even some higher-level mysteries, such as some profound inheritance, they are often not ordinary jade slips or photo disks. Able to record.
Even the surveillance photos that are common in various cities in the world of immortality will not have much monitoring effect if they are made of ordinary image stones.
If it is recorded by force, it is often just superficial, difficult to express its spirit, and does not have much meaning.
The preciousness of Tianhen crystal lies precisely in this.
It can be said that the existence of the Skymark Crystal is the core pillar of the civilization inheritance of the Immortal Cultivation World. Without the records of the Skymark Crystal, most of the profound and mysterious knowledge in the Immortal Cultivation World would probably be lost.
After all, there are no clear and detailed records, just word-of-mouth transmission between master and disciple, and the uncertainty is obviously extremely huge.
And this evil shadow stone, an ordinary shadow stone, can be compared to the sky mark crystal after being washed and refined by the evil spirit of killing?
Since it is a carrier for recording information, why did he observe many times in the square but never noticed the carrier for recording information, let alone the information recorded in it?
Chu Mu frowned slightly and tentatively explored his consciousness. Sure enough, this time, it was no different from what he had explored in the square.
It's all a fog, and it's hard to see anything.
Just as Chu Mu slowly withdrew his consciousness, he seemed to notice something and suddenly lowered his head and looked at his sleeves.
He raised his hand and flicked it, his sleeve slid down, and a faint line of blood appeared on his arm without knowing when.
The thin blood-red threads squirmed and wandered as if alive.
And as his consciousness connected with the stone tablet, this blood line seemed to be stimulated by something, twisting and changing rapidly.
In just a few breaths, a thin blood-red line about a foot long twisted and transformed into a strange yet somewhat familiar pattern on his wrist.
"Sand-tailed scorpion...sand-tailed scorpion mother?"
Chu Mu's pupils shrank suddenly and he stared at the scarlet pattern on his wrist.
The pattern was very clear, like a sand-tailed scorpion shrunk countless times, vividly engraved on his wrist.
But if you take a closer look with your spiritual sense, you will see that this lifelike scarlet sand-tailed scorpion is ever-changing. It seems to be an endless tide of sand-tailed scorpions, it seems to have evolved into various strange monsters, and it seems to be a side of Shura hell, with corpses. Mountains and seas of blood, ghosts and ghosts are rampant...
And when he felt it carefully, it seemed that all this was just an illusion. This pattern seemed to be just a tattoo pattern, without any abnormality.
But the problem is...
Where did this pattern, this blood color come from?
Why didn't he notice?
Chu Mu's back felt cold, and drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He really...didn't notice anything!
"wrong!"
Chu Mu woke up with a start, almost subconsciously, and recalled the inexplicable feeling of despair he had felt before, a despair that would have been impossible!
So, that kind of despair also comes from... it?
Chu Mu stared intently at the lifelike bloody sand-tailed scorpion on his wrist. At this moment, he was breathing much heavier.
"Fellow Taoist, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Qin Zhaoxue seemed to notice something unusual about Chu Mu, and approached to ask.
Chu Mu subconsciously put down his sleeves, but then he seemed to react and a rapid sound transmission came out.
Immediately afterwards, in just a moment, Qin Zhaoxue's urgent voice came, and what followed this sound transmission was almost exactly the same lifelike.
It is also on the wrist, and the blood lines are also twisting and changing. In the end, it is also a lifelike bloody sand-tailed scorpion!
At this moment, the two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, both looking at the flawless white stone tablet in front of them!
It's so weird, but it appears under the influence of the stone tablet.
Before, it had never been revealed at all.
Even Chu Mu himself only vaguely felt something was wrong, but he never noticed the existence of this blood line.
At this moment, it seemed to be responding to the two people's surprise.
On top of the flawless white stone tablet, at the top position, the flawless stone tablet rippled like a mirror, and then, two lines of simple fonts also appeared.
The font is natural, as if it exists on the stone tablet itself.
Even the moment I see these two fonts, it seems that the vicissitudes of time are rushing towards my face.
The font is ancient, not even any font commonly used in the world of immortality today.
It seems to be composed of mysterious lines drawn one by one. Each stroke seems to contain the truth of heaven and earth.
But when the two of them looked at it with their spiritual senses, the meaning of the font came into their minds extremely clearly.
Two names, one word.
Chu Mu: Scorpion eggs are conceived.
Qin Zhaoxue: Scorpion egg gestation.
And as the meaning of the font came into their minds, another piece of information also came into their minds.
"When the scorpion eggs are mature, they can enter the Pure Soul Mountain."
