"Clang clang clang!"
Accompanied by the sound of bells, on the mist-filled river, a huge fleet composed of more than thirty giant boats of 100 feet was moving down the river.
At this time, it had been half a month since Lu Zhong left Xiaoyuan Palace.
Following the route map he received, he boarded a ship to Yongchun Fairy Port. He would later take a sea ship out to sea at this port and reach his destination, the East China Sea.
Seeing that there is still some time before the fleet arrives at Yongchun Fairy Port.
Lu Zhong, who chartered an entire passenger ship, had a lot of free time at his disposal every day, apart from meditating to refine his Qi and dealing with parasites for Shui Ni.
But this does not mean that Lu Zhong can take time to drink tea.
Whether it is to explore the corpse of the king beast to see if there are any secrets hidden inside, or to take inventory of the harvest from the previous exploration of the Temple of Witches, and digest and utilize the spiritual treasures obtained.
Like this, there were too many things waiting for him to deal with.
"The road to immortality is long. Even though you have three thousand years of life, you still have no time to spare for a day!" Lu Zhong put down the tea cup and said with emotion.
Turn around and come somewhere inside the ship.
This place was originally a cargo hold, but now it has been carefully transformed by him, with restrictions and magic circles installed, and it has become a fairly spacious quiet room.
The area is thirty feet, making it very convenient to handle things.
Walking to the center of the quiet room, Lu Zhong first opened the prohibition circle to isolate the inside and outside. Then he gently touched the storage ring on his left hand and released the two king beast corpses.
Even after half a month of death, the body still maintains a certain degree of activity.
Looking at the twitching muscles, Lu Zhong hesitated for a while, then took out the prepared tools and began to dissect the king beast's corpse.
Demonic beasts can activate their innate magical powers, and they don't need magic tricks like monks do. They only need to activate the spiritual patterns in their bodies to achieve this goal. Spirit patterns appear as monsters advance. The more powerful the innate magical power is, the more complex the spirit patterns will be.
And by analyzing the spirit patterns, we can figure out the principles of the monster's innate magical powers.
If you can understand this principle thoroughly, you can create a secret technique based on it. Most of the strange and high-level secret arts in the world of immortality were born in this way.
After the secret technique is created, if you continue to improve it.
It is possible to perfect it into a magical power.
This is Lu Zhong's current purpose.
He thought that he had the gray mist space and could continuously simulate it. Through this, he might be able to analyze the spirit patterns on the king beast and create his own unique magical power.
Time passes day by day.
As the dissection progressed, the spiritual patterns on the king beast were also stripped out.
The original spirit patterns obtained by dissection were extremely complicated and abnormal. Each branch had nearly a thousand lines. Among them, there were a large number of useless lines. Lu Zhong needed to analyze them one by one to eliminate the unnecessary and retain the essence to analyze the real spirit patterns.
This process is extremely labor-intensive.
Whenever his energy is exhausted, he has to do other things.
For example, let Ziyou extremely fire swallow the warm jade containing the sun fire essence. In order to make this spiritual fire transform as soon as possible and enhance the effect of purifying the true essence.
Forging spiritual fire is, after all, a low-level spell
By the time he reached the Nascent Soul stage, he could no longer keep up with him.
If it weren't for the presence of Ziyou Jihuo, I'm afraid this technique would be of no use, so spells such as Qingyang Fire Rain Technique would have long been forgotten by Lu Zhong.
…
Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
The fleet was still sailing on the Tongtian River. After leaving the freezing northern border, the mist on the river finally dissipated, replaced by rolling green mountains.
Many passengers were already on the deck, admiring the beautiful scenery along the coast.
At this moment, Lu Zhong was still busy in the quiet room.
After half a year of hard work, he has completed the preliminary analysis of the original spirit patterns. Through this, I finally learned about the magical power of the bat-winged king beast.
"White Yuan Divine Light"
According to the analysis results, this divine light can specifically defeat the power of stars.
Especially for the Flying Star inheritance, it can break almost all the Flying Star inheritance spells.
Knowing this, one can imagine Lu Zhong's mood.
Fortunately, he has now completely obtained the spiritual pattern of Bai Yuan's divine light through dissection. With this, he can not only create a secret technique, but also develop a way to counter this divine light.
In this way, even if similar methods are encountered in the future, the strength will not be seriously weakened.
However, creating his own secret technique often takes hundreds of years, so Lu Zhong has no intention of doing it at the moment, but is planning to wait until he returns to the Southern Barbarians.
Without stopping, he continued to dissect the next king beast.
Lu Zhong took out the strange looking body from the storage ring, as if he had cut open a maggot corpse. When he was about to start the autopsy, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with the state of the corpse.
Unlike the bat-winged king beast, which had been dead for a long time and whose body still remained active, the body of this maggot king beast was obviously liquefied at this moment, and the essence of flesh and blood in the body was condensing.
If he hadn't been sure that this beast was already dead and could no longer die, he would have doubted whether it was going to come back to life.
After thinking about it, Lu Zhong decided to take a look first.
As time went by, spiritual patterns began to appear where the essence of flesh and blood gathered. Then all the spiritual patterns came together, and finally a small seal was created.
Looking at this scene, Lu Zhong's expression seemed to remain unchanged, but in fact he was extremely surprised. A certain classic that he had read suddenly appeared in his mind.
About Lingbao.
Lingbao can be divided into innate and acquired.
The scene in front of me is very much like the birth process of an innate spiritual treasure.
With a thought in his mind, Lu Zhong took the small seal into his hand. After examining it carefully, he finally couldn't help showing a look of surprise on his face, because this small seal turned out to be a magic weapon.
Maybe it was because the Maggot King Beast was killed.
This treasure appears to be intact on the surface, but in fact the internal spiritual patterns are messy, and there are even signs of breakage in many places.
A magic weapon like this can only be regarded as a piece of waste.
But even so, the method of using flesh and blood to create a magic weapon was still an eye-opener for Lu Zhong, and he felt in his heart that the upper limit of the potential of this method of accumulating treasures was probably not that of refining a magic weapon.
I am afraid that it can be compared with the legendary "acquired spiritual treasure refining technology".
It reminds me that the king beast was once a subject of the Snow Saint.
It is not difficult to guess the origin of this method of accumulating treasures.
"If you have the opportunity in the future, you must go to the depths of the wasteland to explore!" Lu Zhong made a decision in his heart, glanced at the small seal magic weapon in his hand, and thought about how to deal with it.
In order to avoid missing the treasure, he decided to refine it to find out the details of the small seal.
After using the gray fog space to simulate it and confirming that there was no danger, Lu Zhong refined the small seal. A stream of information suddenly emerged in his mind, and he learned the name of the magic weapon.
"White Beast Mark"
"The first-level forbidden magic weapon is still incomplete." Lu Zhong curled his lips and said.
Due to the incomplete internal spiritual patterns, this treasure did not produce magical powers. Fortunately, after injecting mana into it, it can freely change its size and kill the enemy, so it has a certain power.
Originally he wanted to destroy it, but seeing that the White Beast Seal was still somewhat useful, he changed his mind: "After all, it is a magic weapon, so just keep it and put it in the Bihai Sect's treasure house."
Even if you can't redeem it in the future, it's still good to keep it as a collectible.
…
Late that night.
Lu Zhong is expelling insects from Shui Ni.
It took a whole year, but the spiritual threads connected to her soul by the parasite had withered to pieces.
It is expected that Shui Ni will wake up soon.
At this moment, Lu Zhong's expression changed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He ended Shui Ni's treatment early, then turned around and came to the quiet room, opened his mouth and released a wisp of flame.
His eyes were full of expectation at this moment, and he murmured:
"Are you finally going to transform?"
The purple youji fire left the body and instantly expanded into a ball of flame that was about ten feet high.
But the difference from before is that its color is no longer pure purple. While the original purple has been reduced by a few points, a touch of almost invisible gold has been added.
So the flame turned purple-gold.
"Since the transformation has occurred, it is somewhat inappropriate to continue to call it by the original name...Purple Gold, then it will be called 'Purple Gold Extreme Fire'!" Lu Zhong thought silently in his heart while watching the transformation of the spiritual fire. road.
The transformation process of spiritual fire can be said to be quite rapid.
After a few breaths of time, Lu Zhong took the purple gold spiritual fire into his body.
After careful sensing, he discovered that after the spiritual fire transformed, thanks to the sudden increase in firepower, the effect of forging the spiritual fire was also significantly improved.
"It seems that in the short term, I won't have to worry about purifying the true essence."
Lu Zhong thought happily.
But before he could be happy for long, the giant boat that had been moving forward suddenly began to slow down and soon stopped.
"what happened?"
Lu Zhong came out of the cabin and asked the steward.
"Senior, it's the monks from Tianyuan Immortal Palace. They are doing a routine inspection." The steward explained with a smile when he saw that it was the wealthy man who chartered a huge boat.
"Is it going to be troublesome to check...?" Lu Zhong asked.
"On this point, guests can rest assured. Tianyuan Immortal Palace has always been easy to talk to. As long as there are no monks wanted by them in the fleet, they can be released after presenting documents and tokens." The steward said loudly, seeming to be very confident about this. look like.
After hearing this, Lu Zhong nodded slightly.
Things turned out exactly as the steward said. Tianyuan Immortal Palace was just doing a routine inspection. After activating a magic weapon to shine on all the ships, they immediately let the fleet go.
After sailing for another half month, the fleet finally docked.
"Is this Yongchun Fairy Harbor?"
Lu Zhong walked off the trestle and looked at the extremely majestic port city in front of him, clearly seeing the stretches of pavilions and pavilions, the bustling shop streets, and the crowds of pedestrians on the streets.
I couldn't help but feel surprised, this place was much more prosperous than Nanman.
As far as he knew, even if it was as prosperous as Yongchun Fairy Harbor, it was still a "poor and remote" place in the Middle Earth.
Lu Zhong recalled the prosperous scene of Middle-earth that he saw through the eyes of the incarnation. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, I'm afraid only a land with such abundant resources and treasures can stably cultivate god-transforming monks, right?
If you want to enter the port city, you need to pay an entry fee.
Not too little, a full hundred spirit stones.
Lu Zhong paid the money and entered the port city, but was not in a hurry to find a ship to go to sea.
While he was still on the ship, he heard that an auction would be held in the port city soon. The items in the auction were of high quality. It was said that it was held for high-level monks, so he was ready to participate.
Maybe you can actually take some good photos.
After asking around the city for a while, Lu Zhong determined the time for the auction to be held in half a month.
Next, he picked a good place and rented a cave there.
Because he was willing to spend money, the daily rent was enough to give him a hundred spiritual stones, so the grade of the cave he rented was not low. This is reflected in the extremely high concentration of spiritual energy inside, reaching the level of fourth-order spiritual veins.
Although for Nascent Soul cultivators, just a casual puff will cause it to be exhausted immediately. But it is always better to live in such a high spiritual environment than to stay in a place with poor spiritual energy.
late at night.
Lu Zhong slowly finished his work.
Turning over his hand, there were two more storage rings.
These two storage rings were obtained from Qingding and Wanmu respectively.
Looking at them, Lu Zhong was also filled with emotion.
Before his trip to the Temple of Ten Thousand Witches, he only had the idea of collecting more spiritual objects to build up his strength. But he never thought that after a series of hard battles, he would actually kill two Nascent Souls in one fell swoop.
“It’s so unpredictable!”
Shaking it, he dispersed the distracting thoughts in his mind and began to refine the storage ring.
Soon, they were opened one by one.
These two storage rings, as can be seen from the inlaid Kongming stones, have large and small storage spaces. Among them, Wanmu's storage ring is more than 10,000 square meters, while Qingding's storage ring is much smaller, only Less than eight thousand square meters.
There were a lot of things inside, and Lu Zhong spent a lot of time just counting them.
In terms of spiritual stones, the total amount is about three million.
For True Lord Nascent Soul, these spiritual stones can only be regarded as small change.
There are all kinds of magical instruments, talismans, and elixirs. There are various types, and the grades are high and low.
Among these items, there are many elixirs collected from the Temple of Ten Thousand Witches, and some years have reached a thousand, so he plans to keep these elixirs and refine them into fourth-level elixirs in the future, so as to improve his cultivation.
After looking at the things one by one, Lu Zhong picked out a few things that interested him.
A golden jade slip, obtained from Wan Mu's storage ring, contains the first half of the refining method of the spiritual treasure "Eight Extremes Cauldron".
After getting the method of refining the spirit treasure, you can refine the spirit treasure according to the diagram. Unfortunately, the content is not complete, only the first half of the spirit treasure is left.
"If I master the acquired spiritual treasure refining technology, I will be able to complete the refining method myself."
Lu Zhong thought sadly.
However, he also knew very well that as an undisclosed secret among the immortal sects, his chances of obtaining the acquired spiritual treasure refining technology were even lower than finding another jade slip and gathering together the method of refining the Eight Extremes Cauldron.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhong put away the Baji Ding Jade Slips.
Keep counting.
This time it was an old yellow talisman.
There is no spiritual energy on the surface, and there is no trace of anything magical. In the eyes of outsiders, this is a useless talisman, but in Lu Zhong's eyes, this talisman paper contains hidden secrets.
After he activated Tianluo Secret Eyes to observe, he finally figured out the hidden secret.
It turned out that inside the yellow talisman, there was a talisman as thin as a cicada's wing and shining silver.
Judging from its restrained aura, it is most likely a fourth-level talisman.
