The study of borrowing spiritual stones was not Jia Chao's impromptu idea.
Since returning from the Sword Tiger Tribe, he has planned to improve the heritage of rune engraving.
It's just that the first borrowed spirit stone he got was wasted by him, so he has no more ideas in this regard.
Now that Nushi and Xingyue gave him such a big surprise, he put the matter back on his agenda.
As soon as he returned to the small courtyard behind the mountain, he began his research.
The inheritance of rune engraving is strange, but other inheritances at least have a video-like tutorial for people to learn.
But it only gave me something that looked like a picture, with hundreds of totem-like runes densely carved on it.
Jia Chao tried to recite and memorize these runes at first, but he gave up when he found that he couldn't remember them anyway.
It was only after he got the spiritual stone this time that he discovered the magical effect of rune engraving inheritance.
He just copied the runes on the borrowed spirit stone completely, and the corresponding runes on the "picture" lit up.
The moment those runes lit up, Jia Chao immediately understood the meaning of those runes.
It turns out that the learning method of this inheritance is not to recite and memorize, but to illuminate.
That picture is just like a certain reading machine from the previous life. I don’t know where to click!
Jia Chao suddenly became playful and began to try to draw the runes according to the pictures.
But what he didn't expect was that although he could see the rune patterns on the inheritance pictures through his spiritual thoughts, he couldn't draw them at all when he drew them by hand.
Only then did he realize that it was possible that this thing was set up to collect cards.
You need to see the runes in reality before you can light up the rune marks in the inheritance pictures.
So he quickly found a few runes he had copied in Qiling Cave, and found that the runes on the inheritance picture were indeed lit.
As long as your mind stays on these lit runes, you can get information about these runes.
At this moment, Jia Chao suddenly realized.
Sure enough, in this world we cannot use the inertial thinking of previous lives to think about problems!
If the way of thinking is right, the logic will follow.
Once the logic is straightened out, the technology of rune engraving becomes very simple.
At least it becomes possible to read the runes on the borrowed spirit stone.
Jia Chao soon understood the structure and principle of borrowing spirit stones.
It turns out that the borrowed spirit stone is a small electrical appliance similar to a flashlight.
Its structure is mainly divided into three parts, a battery-like soul power storage part, a circuit board-like rune bone, and a shell part that encapsulates the two parts together.
The blood used to store soul power is the blood of spiritual beasts.
The ones used to engrave the runes are specially treated animal bones.
As for the shell part, it is formed by fusing some special stone and animal bones with soul power.
There is a lot of space in the inheritance pictures, using very abstract patterns to record the production process of each type of rune stone.
Because Jia Chao held the borrowed spirit stone, he also unlocked this part of the content.
After in-depth understanding, Jia Chao discovered that each type of borrowed spirit stone requires different types of animal blood and animal bones.
For example, the borrowed spirit stone used to store the power of earth-attributed elements can only use the blood and bones of earth-attributed spirit beasts.
This is also the reason why the blood and bones of spiritual beasts have become a kind of trading product. Only when there is buying and selling, there will be killing!
Moreover, if you want to engrave the borrowed spirit stone with specified attributes, you also need the rune master to have the corresponding elemental attributes.
This made Jia Chao feel uncomfortable that there were so many restrictions on the engraving of the spirit stone.
Moreover, it seems that sealing the power of the elements in the Borrowing Spirit Stone also requires a lot of energy. Ordinary Spirit Speakers need to rest for several days after making one, and the output is not very high.
This greatly reduced Jia Chao's enthusiasm, because his original intention of making Ling Ling Stone was to master the production technology of this kind of hard currency, so that he could make a fortune while hiding at home.
But obviously the rules of this world are much more complicated than he thought, and there would be no chance for him to exploit loopholes.
Think about it, if something is very profitable, how can it be his turn to make this money?
After realizing the idea, Jia Chao put away his utilitarianism and concentrated on research.
A spirit beast that wanted to let its mate enter Qiling Cave to give birth provided some blood. Bi Song's workshop had the needed ore, and Dalang had a lot of animal bones in his hands.
After gathering the materials, Jia Chao locked himself in the room and built a spirit borrowing stone.
About two hours later, his first piece came out.
A borrowed spirit stone that seals the power of the ice element can probably only reach the green level of strength.
This is the most advanced borrowing spirit stone that Jia Chao can create at the moment. The level of the borrowing spirit stone cannot be higher than that of the rune master himself.
In other words, the borrowed spirit stone that a gray-level war god can create can only be brown-level at best.
As soon as Jia Chao made the borrowed spirit stone, he ran to the front mountain to find the stubborn stone and dimethoate. He needed a volunteer to verify his product.
"Before our tribe was attacked, it was my son Shuoyong who used the spirit stone to lead the tribe to protect the tribe, so let him do it!"
Leguo soon found his only son Shuoshi, which moved Jia Chao very much.
After all, this is the first time I have made a spirit stone, and I have only learned it for half a day. I don’t know if there are any side effects.
This old boy actually let his own son go, he is a loyal minister!
Shuoshi quickly entered the state and activated the ice element borrowing spirit stone made by Jia Chao.
In just the blink of an eye, he changed from an ordinary person to a green-level elemental warrior.
Shuoshi's movements of driving elements are very skillful, and it seems that he really uses the spiritual stone frequently.
In front of the three of them, he skillfully used the power of ice to summon spears, axes, shields, and even a crystal clear ice wolf.
This smooth operation made Jia Chao's eyelids jump. You must know that he only mastered the power of ice not long ago. Compared with Shuoshi's control of elements, he is not even a bit inferior.
"Uncle Leguo, have brothers Shuoshi always been so good?"
Le Guo nodded with a smile.
"Although my son does not have the talent to awaken the Spirit Speaker, he is very proficient in the use of various elemental powers. This is why I did not let him become an elemental warrior!"
Jia Chao: "Why?"
Le Guo: "If he becomes an elemental warrior, he can only have the power of one element, but if he borrows spiritual stones, he will have countless possibilities!"
Jia Chao rubbed his chin, feeling that what Le Guo said made sense, but not entirely.
The power of borrowing spiritual stones is temporary, not permanent.
His reason seems very flimsy!
Why doesn't this old man let his son awaken the power of the elements directly?
"Chief Achao, you succeeded!" Just when Jia Chao guessed Le Guo's thoughts, Shuoshi stopped the test and came to stand in front of the three of them.
Nushi looked at the gray borrowed spirit stone in Shuoshi's hand, then looked at Jia Chao, and said sincerely:
"Achao, you can't let anyone know about this. Leguo and Shuoshi, you must also keep today's matter a secret!"
Hearing what Nushi said, Le Guo, who was originally beaming with joy, stopped smiling.
"This matter... really needs to be kept secret! Chief Achao, why don't you tell us a little bit about how many heavenly inheritances you have obtained?"
Jia Chao scratched his butt in embarrassment and asked, "Aren't you talking about borrowing spiritual stones? Why does it involve the inheritance of heaven's law?"
Le Guo shook his head, "Not all spirit speakers can become rune masters. You must have the inheritance of a rune master!"
After hearing this, Jia Chao finally understood, and he inadvertently exposed another trump card.
He rubbed his forehead and said to himself: Sure enough, excellence cannot be hidden!
At this time, Nushi waved his hand, "Okay, don't mention this matter anymore. Ah Chao, you have to think clearly in the future, which inheritance can be exposed."
Jia Chao nodded. With just two ordinary old men, his trump card was exposed time and again.
It seems that I really need to hide it a little bit in the future, otherwise I might be guilty of harboring the treasure at some point.
After all this trouble, Jia Chao confirmed that the spirit borrowing stone he made was successful.
He had dinner with Nushi and the other three, and then went back to the small courtyard in the back mountain.
There is an advantage to staying in the back mountain, that is, no one will disturb you, and only those spiritual beasts have the opportunity to know any secrets.
Jia Chao quickly found Xiaodu and concluded a deal with him.
That is, if a spirit beast wants to enter the Qiling Cave, it must pay some spirit beast blood.
As for the amount of blood, it depends on the size of the spirit beast.
Of course, Jia Chao did not have the technology to preserve the blood of spirit beasts, so these spirit beasts were paid on credit.
When Jia Chao really needs it, he can just find them and use them.
What Jia Chao couldn't understand was that at first there were still many spirit beasts who were too worried to come to Qiling Cave to make an appointment for the "delivery room".
However, after paying the blood of spirit beasts to qualify for entry, more spirit beasts came to the door.
Even some large spiritual beasts came to make reservations, and their schedules were postponed to the next summer.
The success of rune engraving technology opened the door to a new world for Jia Chao.
He began to imagine wildly, thinking that he might be able to use rune engraving technology to create cameras, walkmans, and even mobile phones and televisions.
This means that by using rune technology, this world can develop another technological line.
To achieve such an achievement, the essential prerequisite is to collect more runes.
Thinking of this, Jia Chao immediately set off to Qiling Cave to find Xiaodu.
"Boss, why are you coming here to me if you don't sleep at night?" Xiaodu asked in confusion with his mouth wide open and yawning.
Without saying a word, Jia Chao came to the top of the pyramid hill, took out the animal skins he had prepared early in the morning, and began to copy the runes on Xiaodu's head.
When Xiaodu saw this, he immediately stood upright and looked at Jia Chao warily with his head raised high.
"Lower your head and let me draw the runes on your head!" Jia Chao said, waving half of the charcoal in his hand.
Xiaodu: "You can't just draw this mark! It will bite you back! Only those who have inherited the rune engraving inheritance can draw it!"
Jia Chao tilted his head when he heard this, "Why?"
