In a hidden cave in Nanzhaozhou, Chu State, a burly man laughed, looking at his limbs with a look of joy on his face.
Inspired by a condensed spiritual consciousness,
His arms, legs, two hands and two feet, a total of eight rather complex magic circles were hidden in his body, emitting a faint red light.
With the activation of the magic circle, the mana boiled in the man's body, which was very strange.
"I didn't expect that in Nanzhao Prefecture, I was lucky enough to obtain four blood-condensing grasses that were two to three hundred years old and refine a sufficient amount of blood marrow powder, which was just in time to carve out the spirit-controlling arrays in several battle-related parts."
The burly man was Lu Kun. At this time, they had been in Nanma Prefecture for half a year, not only because the area of Nanma Prefecture was larger than that of Dongchi Prefecture, but also because there were so many cities and towns here.
Lu Kun and his party walked around and visited almost all the large markets in Nanzhao Prefecture. Fortunately, Huangtian paid off and allowed him to buy the Blood Nugget Grass.
On this day, he happened to have accumulated enough blood essence. Together with other materials and preparations, he successfully carved the spirit-controlling circle in six places except his right arm.
At this time, Lu Kun was holding a lightning hammer in each hand. The purple light on the two weapons was extremely dazzling, and they had been stimulated to the maximum power in the early stage of foundation building. He had also repaired a previously damaged lightning hammer.
.
The lightning on the surface of the giant hammer, under the precise control of its magic power, can even be fused into a thunder ball at any time, and is controlled by Lu Kun with great flexibility.
"As expected, the effect of the spirit-controlling array carved on my body by this blood marrow powder is even better, as if spiritual roots were born out of thin air."
Lu Kun muttered in his mouth, and suddenly his expression was shocked, as if he thought of something incredible.
"Growing spiritual roots out of thin air? If I can carve out a spirit-controlling array in the mortal body of a person who has completed the Vajra Art, will it allow them to have magic power?"
"When my spiritual roots are hidden, I don't have the ability to control spiritual power, but I am also a monk with spiritual roots. This physical spirit control array can help me transform my magic power. Can it work on mortals without spiritual roots?"
Lu Kun's mind was wide open and many ideas popped up in succession.
Then he shook his head and said to himself: "Even the physical body that has completed the Vajra Art is not strong enough to be the carrier of the spirit control array. I am overthinking it."
Lu Kun put this idea behind him in the blink of an eye. He took out a bunch of talismans from his storage bag. There were fifty or sixty talismans, each of which contained powerful spell fluctuations.
If ordinary cultivators knew that Lu Kun had so many intermediate and top-level talismans, they would have to stare out their eyes. With so many powerful talismans in hand, even ordinary early-stage pill-forming cultivators could barely compete.
Lu Kun felt the terrifying aura of a large number of top-level talismans put together. The feeling was similar to that of facing a monk in the pill formation stage, with an unspeakable feeling of depression and trembling.
This shows that if these talismans are released together, he can be easily killed.
Lu Kun was filled with emotion: "In the past six months or so, I have killed many notorious immortal cultivators, so that I can purchase so many intermediate and top-level talismans. You must know that these hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones can be used to purchase the refining of magic weapons."
The material is ready.”
Next, Lu Kun selected a dozen fire attribute spells from these talismans.
"Last time, under the attack of Huo Mei Niang's pseudo-magic weapon, even if I relied on defensive methods to reduce a lot of power, the remaining power was almost the same as an intermediate top-level spell, which can completely temper the bones deep inside.
"
Lu Kun then took out the Nine Nether Cauldron from Wang Shitong. Some time ago, he relied on the power of the spiritual carving technique to add several small magic circles to the Nine Nether Cauldron.
I saw him muttering words in his mouth, and hitting the dark cauldron wall of the Nine Nether Cauldron one after another. After a while, the Nine Nether Cauldron expanded and grew to the size of an ordinary person.
Lu Kun took off all his robes and other robes, jumped into the enlarged Nine Nether Cauldron, which was just big enough to fit him inside.
Then he stretched out his hand and summoned the three flame spell talismans on the ground.
"Under the package of this Nine Nether Cauldron, these talismans can release the greatest power. If they are outside, most of the power will be borne by the external muscles."
"And now the muscles have been tempered to the extreme of my current cultivation level, and the tempering effect is limited."
"It must stimulate the deepest bones as much as possible."
After muttering to himself, Lu Kun directly activated a mid-level top-level flame spell talisman, and a fiery red flame appeared directly in the Nine Nether Cauldron.
At the same time, a flash of light flashed in Lu Kun's hand, and a raised black stone appeared around the mouth of the Nine Nether Cauldron, and then turned into a black top, sealing the Nine Nether Cauldron.
Lu Kun actually sealed himself in the Nine Nether Cauldron, as if he were treating his body as a magical material that needed to be polished and refined.
The Nine Nether Cauldron is burning with surging flames, and even outside this cauldron, which can withstand the elixir fire of the pill formation stage, you can feel the scorching heat.
"Haha, it's cool. The power of fire is transmitted directly through the muscles. Unfortunately, I can't control this spell, otherwise the utilization rate would be higher."
Lu Kun thought like this in his mind, and the thunder attribute mana on his body also fluctuated violently, splitting into two streams. One stream formed a layer of lightning protection outside the organs in the body.
The other force rushed towards the burned bones everywhere in the body. The flame spell was destroying, catalyzing his body and melting his bones. This thunder spell was responsible for repairing these wounds.
The expression on Lu Kun's face was quite ferocious. The pain of the burning flames was no less than that of the original Thunderbolt Technique. It was even a bit stronger than the Thunderbolt Technique. After all, the Thunderbolt Technique would paralyze the nerves, while the Flame Technique would only burn.
However, the talisman spell is a talisman after all. It comes and goes quickly. After a while, the power of this first flame spell will be exhausted, and the surface of Lu Kun's body looks charred black.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Kun activated the second talisman, taking advantage of the fact that the external muscle defense was somewhat broken down, and used the flame technique to temper it again.
Lu Kun stayed in the Nine Nether Cauldron like this for a quarter of an hour, consuming all the power of the three flame spells before opening the cauldron's lid and jumping out.
At this time, his body was completely charred, his muscles all over his body looked smaller, and his mana fluctuations had also become extremely low.
"Three Flames, my thunder attribute mana is almost exhausted."
Then he took out the spirit stone and began to recover his mana. However, as his physical body's mana recovered, the burnt blackness outside his body still existed, and his muscles did not return to their full state.
After a long time, Lu Kun opened his eyes.
His face was full of excitement: "Mana is consumed very quickly, but the bone tempering effect in this quarter of an hour is extremely strong. After I restored my mana, I can clearly feel that the liquid mana in my bones has increased by a level."
"Haha, at this speed, we can hope to reach the middle stage of foundation building in a short time!"
"The muscles will not recover for the time being. My external defenses will be weaker, and it will be easier to temper my bones."
After speaking, Lu Kun took a few more talismans, entered the Nine Nether Cauldron, and continued to temper his body with top-level spells.
