"Although the Heaven-stealing Pagoda is very magical, its ability to break the ban has certain limitations after all..."
Li Yan thought in his heart.
As his cultivation level continues to improve, the dangers and various difficulties he encounters now are getting stronger and stronger.
Even problems that seemed difficult to him and impossible to solve before, in most cases now, Li Yan didn't even need to use any magic weapon at all, he could solve them with a wave of his hand.
Therefore, many of his magic weapons are used much less frequently than before.
And when Li Yan encountered a problem that he couldn't solve, he needed to use the magic weapon again, but the magic weapon still had the same ability as before, so it seemed a little powerless.
Although he failed to make further progress, Li Yan did not withdraw the Tiantian Pa, and continued to control the Tiantian Pa, covering it firmly like that...
Two hours later, Li Yan, who had been concentrating all the time, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and the sky-stealing handkerchief that turned into small dots flew away at this moment.
There was already a small hole in the area covered by the Thiefian Pagoda, but the hole began to shrink immediately after the Thiefianpa left.
Without hesitation, Li Yan reached in with his spiritual consciousness in an instant. After entering, he quickly scanned the inside with his spiritual consciousness, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
In less than three breaths, Li Yan's consciousness retreated.
The small hole formed by the light white dot also completely closed and disappeared in an instant, and the light white dot appeared again in that position.
Li Yan glanced at the brocade handkerchief floating beside him, which had returned to its original size, and a smile appeared on his face.
Then, after he sighed slightly, and as soon as he moved his mind again, the Tiantian Pao disappeared and was put away by him.
Li Yan became more and more aware that as the Heaven-Stealing Pagoda accompanied him along the way, its ability would only become weaker and weaker, but he could not enhance the Heaven-Stealing Pagoda's ability.
However, formation is one of his weaknesses. If he had strong formation skills, he might have broken the formation restriction on the dark red blade long ago.
It's just that cultivating immortals and hundreds of arts are too broad and profound, and everyone's time is really limited. Li Yan has no more time to try to cultivate other things.
Just coming to Huangqi Valley this time, he has put down many of his cultivations, and Alchemy has taken up most of his time!
Li Yan quickly retracted his thoughts. There was a flash of light in his hand, and suddenly a blank jade slip appeared. After his consciousness sank in, he quickly started recording it inside.
Soon after, Li Yan no longer paid attention to the dark red blade in the air, but carefully looked at the jade slip that had just been burned. At this time, his expression was changing.
What he saw in the light white dots was the method for controlling the dark red blade, or a basic training method.
Through the preface to this technique, Li Yan also knew the origin of the dark red blade. It was probably not a magic weapon refined by the middle-aged monk he killed.
It was an unknown magic weapon that he also obtained in an accident, and what was burned into it was a magic technique called "Micro Thoughts".
What made Li Yan's expression keep changing was that this was an extremely rare method of cultivating spiritual consciousness.
Wei Nian is a basic introductory auxiliary method for cultivating spiritual consciousness. It cannot increase spiritual consciousness. It is an auxiliary method for training spiritual consciousness.
Controlling the dark red blade through this technique is actually a kind of training, which can train the subtle control of spiritual consciousness.
There are three stages in total, the first level is subtle, the second level is moving subtle, and the third level is non-subtle.
Although this technique cannot enhance the consciousness itself, it can increase the attack strength of the consciousness.
To use the most common metaphor, when you practice to the next level, the strength and toughness of a thorn of consciousness will be three times higher than before you practiced this skill.
The dynamic and subtle realm is increased by six times, and the Wuwei realm is increased by nine times.
Taoism emphasizes the return of ninety-nine to one. After reaching this stage, the entire training is completed.
And that mysterious dark red blade that Li Yan valued very much was actually just a tool for training Wei Nian.
After seeing this, Li Yan's heart was already in turmoil, and he couldn't calm down.
"It turns out that this is just an auxiliary technique for training spiritual consciousness, and a small auxiliary magic weapon. So who made these things?"
At this time, Li Yan had already realized one thing. The origin of this magic weapon was not simple. It was most likely that it was a sect that cultivated spiritual consciousness.
Because the dark red blade I saw, I always thought it was the flying magic weapon of a monk in the late stage of Void Refining. However, in fact, such a powerful magic weapon is just a small auxiliary tool for getting started with spiritual consciousness.
It can be imagined that in the hands of the other party, there must be a shocking skill for cultivating spiritual consciousness!
Looking at the entire world of cultivating immortals, the soul and spiritual consciousness techniques are all techniques that can only be found but cannot be found. This is the reason why Guishui Zhenjing can become the top technique.
However, the Guishui Scripture is not a specialized spiritual consciousness technique. This is also the first time that Li Yan has seen a real spiritual consciousness technique since he began to cultivate immortality.
Although it was only an entry-level auxiliary skill, Li Yan had seen part of the power of the dark red blade with his own eyes. The flight speed and concealment effect alone made him extremely happy.
Now that he has such a discovery, Li Yan can't help but feel excited.
Li Yan also thought of the middle-aged monk, who was most likely not from such a sect.
Otherwise, with his more powerful skills, he will definitely have a more powerful corresponding magic weapon, and he will not use a small entry-level auxiliary tool like a dark red blade as his flying magic weapon.
Once he learned of these situations, Li Yan suddenly felt chills running down his back. He believed that with his current strength, when he met a late-stage cultivator of Xu Lian, he could run away even if he couldn't defeat him.
After escaping from the maze formation, he felt that he was still somewhat confident that he could escape. Now that he thought about it, he could only be thankful that he had always been careful and did not cause a big disaster.
He could have methods that were beyond those of monks of the same level, and so did others. He didn't know to what extent the middle-aged monk's Wei Nian technique had been practiced.
Although the strength of his and his opponent's consciousness are about the same, from the current point of view, they are definitely not as powerful and sophisticated in control as others.
The consciousness attack is similar to the soul attack. It comes and goes without a trace. It is also the most bizarre and sinister attack method, making it difficult for people to guard against it.
If Li Yan hadn't poisoned the middle-aged monk first, poisoning the opponent's Nascent Soul, and then he suddenly took action, what would have been the final result? But it's unknown.
Li Yan didn't know how powerful the middle-aged monk's spiritual attack would be after he was poisoned. This unknown could be fatal.
And he really didn't know that when the middle-aged monk who was controlled by him was exposed and suddenly attacked him, he used his spiritual consciousness to attack.
It's just that the target of the attack was not Li Yan, but the female cultivator. When the middle-aged monk's spiritual consciousness penetrated the female cultivator's sea of consciousness, the other party immediately realized that something was wrong.
But at that time, Li Yan had already used Feng Chongtian and was behind the opponent. When the middle-aged monk tried to react, his spirit was severely injured by Li Yan at the same time.
At that time, not to mention concentrating his spiritual consciousness, he could barely escape the Nascent Soul from his body. It was already his last strength...
And all of this is actually not a coincidence. It is precisely because Li Yan has always been cautious that he has such a result.
At this time, Li Yan, after thinking of this, could only feel scared for a while.
Li Yan carefully read the Wei Nian method several times. This is not only an auxiliary method for cultivating spiritual consciousness, but also a method for controlling dark red blades.
Moreover, the reason why the dark red blade can be hidden is that it must be controlled by special spiritual consciousness. If Li Yan wants to control it at will in a very short time, he will definitely not be able to do it.
He must cultivate Wei Nian to the first level before he can exert a certain speed and concealment function.
Thinking of this, Li Yan got more and more headache, and his time was even more insufficient, but he still felt that he needed to spare some time to practice this technique.
As for now, the use of the dark red blade is at best a simple and crude force control, and it cannot be said to be very powerful.
After Li Yan figured out these situations, he was still very happy. For him, this technique was of course an unexpected surprise.
The technique can enhance spiritual consciousness, but will the control of spiritual consciousness, which is the most normal control, appear in subsequent spells?
Li Yan didn't have time to ask Dong Fuyi, but at least for now, there is no magic method targeting spiritual consciousness.
After getting this result, Li Yan thought for a while and named the dark red blade "Cloud-Piercing Blade". In fact, it was to commemorate the "Cloud-Piercing Willow" that had been with him for countless years.
After putting away the "Cloud Piercer" and the jade slips, Li Yan waved his hand forward again, and suddenly a series of soft sounds appeared in the air, with forty-nine formation flags appearing in the air.
Li Yan looked at the dense array of formation flags. He quickly raised his hand again and cast a series of spells.
And under the control of the magic formula, some of those formation flags directly sank into the ground in the surrounding corners and disappeared...
Another day later, Li Yan in the training room already looked exhausted. He also spent a lot of energy studying this formation.
The final result cannot be regarded as a good result, but it also has some effects.
That is, he can control seven of the formation flags to form a confusing formation that is not very wide. The confusing formation is different from the phantom formation, as well as the psychedelic formation.
The maze is generally a reflection of a real scene. Although only one of the mappings is real, the scene is real. Once a person steps into the trap, he will come and go and be teleported repeatedly.
Therefore, the scenery you see when you turn around inside is actually the same, but you just can't get out.
But most of what you see in the phantom formation does not exist. It is a scenery transformed by the formation, or an environment imagined by your state of mind.
The psychedelic formation is a combination of the two. That formation is more powerful, but the difficulty of refining is also greatly increased.
After Li Yan did some research, he could only activate the seven-pole formation flags and lay out a simple maze.
Li Yan felt that although he might not be able to break this formation with his own formation skills, if he was a diligent person, he should still be able to break it.
After searching for the formation composed of seven flags, he was able to find the formation's boundary. This meant that there was a loophole in the formation.
The barrier will be found somewhere, which will greatly reduce the effectiveness of the maze. The opponent will have a way to break it immediately. This is why he cannot master the formation proficiently.
As for the whirlpool noose that once appeared above his head in this formation, he was even more unable to figure out how to use it, so he could only give up temporarily.
"This formation can only be used reluctantly at the moment. I will wait until I return to the sect and ask my master or second uncle for advice.
Let's see if they can fully activate the formation. With their cultivation, there should be hope that they can complete it..."
Li Yan thought in his mind that he thought this formation was very practical, but when he thought of the power of this formation, Li Yan thought of Ming Qi.
That woman broke through the formation in an instant, and after the formation was fully deployed.
"Does she have a treasure similar to the Heaven-stealing Pagoda in her hand? Or is she a formation mage who is proficient in formations..."
After Li Yan thought of Ming Qi, he couldn't help but think of the time she had been dating him. Not only was this woman smart, she also had many secrets hidden in her body.
However, Li Yan still prefers Ming Qi, who may be a master of formations, because if the other party has a magic weapon similar to the Heaven Stealing Pa, then how did she find this confusing formation barrier?
Of course, it is not ruled out that the magic weapon in her hand has a detection function. This possibility certainly exists, but such a magic weapon with various incredible effects is much more difficult than obtaining the Heaven-stealing Pagoda.
He also renamed this maze, calling it "Ghost Trail".
After Li Yan rested for another five days, he once again embarked on the journey to the Elite Mission Hall...
Time flies, and Li Yan still rarely appears in his courtyard. It was not until two years later that one day, Li Yan finally stopped all tasks.
Those deacons who were familiar with his elite mission hall never saw Li Yan again for a long time...
And Li Yan finally found some time and began to concentrate on practicing the micro-thought technique!
After years of hard work, he took on dangerous tasks one after another, and finally handed in the last task one day ago and got the sect contribution points he needed.
Looking at the number of sect contribution points accumulated in the token, Li Yan finally breathed a long sigh of relief. He had met the qualifications to enter the Ancient Palace of Heritage.
And his purpose of coming to Huangqi Valley has finally taken a big step forward again. In the next few months, all he has to do is wait in practice!
As for the final result, we can only take it one step at a time and try our best to achieve the next goal!
