'Good fellow, seven formations can be engraved on such a small piece of spiritual stone... Whose divine handwriting did it come from?'
Studying the earth-level spiritual stone that Lin Yuyan took out, Jiang Beiran discovered that this large piece of thumb-sized spiritual stone was actually engraved with seven magic circles from the inside to the outside. This could be said to be completely beyond the scope of his understanding.
I tried to inject a little spiritual energy into the spirit stone, and the earth-level spirit stone immediately bloomed with a cyan light.
'I see.'
Through Lin Yuyan's explanation and his own understanding, Jiang Beiran had almost understood the functions of these seven formations.
The first layer of the spirit sealing array is to prevent the spiritual energy in the spirit stone from naturally dispersing and achieve the most perfect sealing effect.
The second layer of the glare array sets a critical value. If the spiritual energy value stored in the spiritual stone is higher than this critical value, then the entire spiritual stone will emit a faint light. If it is lower than this critical value, it will not emit light.
In this way, you can easily judge whether the amount of spiritual energy in the spiritual stone reaches the standard based on whether the spiritual stone glows.
The third level of the Spirit Release Array is like a switch. When the Spirit Release Array is turned on, the spiritual energy in the spirit stone will be released to avoid "leakage".
The fourth level of the spirit-injecting array is also a switch. As long as this array is activated, the spiritual energy can be directed to pour in. However, it is quite difficult to pour the spiritual energy into the spiritual stone. You need to be proficient in the formations in the Sixteen Arts of Xuanmen at the same time.
This can only be done by practicing magic and refining jade, so some large sects will have some such masters.
The fifth layer is the engraving array, which is used as an anti-counterfeiting mark. As long as spiritual power is input, different patterns will appear on the surface of the spiritual stone to prove which sect this spiritual stone comes from.
The sixth level is the concealment formation. As the saying goes, it is a crime to possess a jade. This formation can completely hide the spirit stone's aura, avoiding being discovered by nearby strong men, and thus reducing the risk of being robbed.
The seventh layer is the Diamond Formation. Although the spirit stone itself is not low in solidity, yet another layer of formation has been added to enhance its solidity just in case.
'What is art? This is art!'
After fully understanding the effects of the seven formations, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Compared with this exquisite spirit stone coin, Shengguo's spirit stones are simply crudely made, one by one.
"Put it away." Jiang Beiran pushed the earth-level spirit stone in front of Lin Yuyan and said.
Watching Lin Yuyan put the earth-level spirit stone back into the jade tablet, Jiang Beiran thought for a moment and said, "I need some time to prepare. Wait for me here the next day."
Lin Yuyan couldn't help but tremble when she heard that her senior brother was really willing to help her, and then a sense of security came over her like a tide.
Although the senior brother looked like he had never set foot in the Central Plains, just one sentence made Lin Yuyan feel that there was nothing he couldn't do as long as he followed the man in front of him.
"Yes! Senior brother." Lin Yuyan nodded vigorously.
Nodding, Jiang Beiran stood up and left the pavilion, slowly disappearing into the night under Lin Yuyan's gaze.
'Ah~ Senior brother...' Biting her little thumb, Lin Yuyan's face flushed, and her pupils almost reflected two moments of love.
Returning to the self-enchantment in Jinyao Town, Jiang Beiran went in and replaced a middle-grade spiritual stone that had almost been drained of its spiritual energy.
Holding the middle-grade spirit stone in his hand, Jiang Beiran thought over and over again for a while, but could not think of how to engrave the seven formations on it.
Turning around and sitting on a bamboo chair, feeling the increasingly rich spiritual energy in his own barrier, Jiang Beiran began to think about this system upgrade and the trip to the Central Plains.
From the sudden appearance of the charm attribute, Jiang Beiran has reason to believe that the skill points should also be updated. In addition, when he goes to the Central Plains this time, he may be able to return to the wonderful time when he could trigger options more than a dozen times anywhere.
But a new problem came again.
Although it is a good thing that the system has updated the rewards, will the difficulty of obtaining them also increase?
According to Lin Yuyan's description, coupled with the large spiritual veins one after another in the Qi Kingdom, I am afraid that even if Xuanzong hadn't been everywhere in the Central Plains, and Xuanzong was not as good as a dog, the number of strong men would have doubled several times.
It is still unknown whether the system will be able to help him survive the "catastrophes" with ease in the future.
Under this situation, Jiang Beiran decided to bring all his family assets with him. In the past three months, he has made many top-quality elixirs, talismans, jade slips, etc. in his self-enchantment, and his ability to protect himself has increased.
Up a level.
'I hope I can figure out the location of that aunt when I get to Qi State.'
The next morning, after receiving the summons from his senior brother, Gu Qinghuan came to Jinyao Town and came to the backyard amidst the compliments of the maids and housekeepers.
Taking out a piece of talisman paper and biting it in his mouth, Gu Qinghuan slowly closed his eyes and at the same time opened up his profound knowledge with all his strength.
"open!"
Following Lu Qinghuan's low shout, a Qingluan Formation appeared in the darkness.
Raising his right hand, Gu Qinghuan pinched the roots of his four fingers with his thumb and chanted at the same time.
"son."
Then he pinched the base of his two fingers with his thumb.
"Yin."
Next, pinch the thumb between the first and second joints of the five fingers.
'unitary.'
…
After making seven seals in a row, the talisman in Gu Qinghuan's mouth lit up with golden light.
Immediately afterwards, he recalled his senior brother's teachings in his mind.
"The Big Dipper is the middle dipper. The middle dipper is a star, and the lower dipper is the nine spirits. It walks according to the spirit, and its footprints are nine, which is the star link."
After determining his position, Gu Qinghuan took a step toward the southeast.
"Three steps and nine traces, the traces become obstacles. Li Gua, step on!"
Taking nine steps in a row, Gu Qinghuan felt his consciousness shake, and he came to the self-enchantment of his senior brother.
Slowly opening his eyes, Gu Qinghuan took a deep breath and couldn't help but marveled: "The spiritual energy is actually rich again."
When his senior brother built his own barrier, Gu Qinghuan had been here several times. Every time he came, he would feel that the aura here had reached the extreme. But the next time he came, he would find that this extreme had been broken through by his senior brother.
"Here we come." Jiang Beiran, who had just walked out of the greenhouse, looked at Gu Qinghuan and said.
"Greetings to senior brother." Gu Qinghuan saluted respectfully.
Wiping the mud on his hands, Jiang Beiran walked to the table, picked up the teapot and said, "I called you here this time because I need to go on a long trip, and I have to rely on you to maintain this barrier for the time being."
"Senior Brother, please rest assured." Gu Qinghuan immediately cupped his hands and said.
"Yes." After pouring a cup of tea, Jiang Beiran waved to Gu Qinghuan. "Come, try my new tea."
"Yes." After bowing, Gu Qinghuan stepped forward and took the tea cup handed by his senior brother.
After blowing two puffs of hot air, Gu Qinghuan raised the cup and took a sip.
As soon as the tea was in his mouth, Gu Qinghuan felt a special spiritual energy pouring into his throat.
After drinking the entire cup of tea, Gu Qinghuan felt a burning sensation in his pubic area, as if there was an unknown fire burning.
"How do you feel?" Jiang Beiran asked after pouring another glass.
"Compared with the taste of sweet rain, the spiritual energy is more refreshing. I am afraid that only my senior brother can make such good tea in this world."
"Hahaha." Jiang Beiran laughed a few times and asked again: "Can you tell how special this aura is?"
"I've got it, but I don't know where this special thing comes from. I'd like to ask my senior brother for advice."
"The tea you drink is called Zhurong, and the spiritual energy that enters your body with the tea is fire spiritual energy."
"Fire energy!?" Gu Qinghuan looked shocked.
Throwing a bag of tea to Gu Qinghuan, Jiang Beiran said: "Starting from today, three cups a day, and I will help you change your physique in a month."
Gu Qinghuan's mouth opened slightly, and he was extremely shocked.
Senior brother once made it clear that his physical condition was too poor and his life would be in danger if he was forced to change, so he didn't think about it anymore. He listened to senior brother's words and laid a good foundation first.
But I didn't expect that the senior brother would come up with a solution so quickly.
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Gu Qinghuan, who has always had a desire to become stronger, knelt down on one knee. If he hadn't known that his senior brother didn't like this, he would have bowed down to express his admiration.
"Get up." After Jiang Beiran said that, he took out a pair of hammers with red flame patterns from the Qiankun Ring and handed them to Gu Qinghuan: "These are the prairie fire hammers I helped you build. They were made with the blazing flames that I found that day.
It is made from the heart, if you adapt to it more during this period, it will be your magic weapon from now on."
"Dharma... magic weapon?" Gu Qinghuan, who thought Zhu Rongcha was shocking enough, knelt on the ground again with a pop, "Senior brother, you mean..."
"Well, it's a yellow-level mid-level magic weapon. If you cultivate it well, it has the possibility of further improvement."
In the past three months, Jiang Beiran not only obtained a large amount of precious materials from Liang Guo, Wu Qingce and others also obtained a batch of top-quality auxiliary materials when they last visited the place where Qingluan lived.
Coupled with the power of self-enchantment and the top-quality treasure material of the Blazing Heart, Jiang Beiran finally created the first yellow-level magic weapon.
Lifting up Gu Qinghuan who was kneeling on his knees, Jiang Beiran said: "From the time when you were suitable for blacksmithing, I knew that fire spirit energy must be the most suitable for you. After I leave, remember to practice diligently."
"Please rest assured, senior brother, Qing Huan will live up to his cultivation!"
"Besides, you come with me." Jiang Beiran said and walked to a bamboo door, pushed it open and led Lu Qinghuan in.
"This is the center of this formation. Remember, San... hmm? Qing Huan, what's wrong with you?"
"Senior...Senior brother, I feel like the profound energy in my body is being sucked out by something." Gu Qinghuan said with a painful look on his face.
Jiang Beiran frowned after hearing this, but soon seemed to understand something.
'Could it be that……'
Placing his palm on Gu Qinghuan's chest, Jiang Beiran closed his eyes and chanted.
"The Big Dipper punishes and eliminates evil."
"The five gods guide me and travel in all directions."
'As expected...'
Relying on his spiritual consciousness, Jiang Beiran discovered that Gu Qinghuan's spiritual energy was being sucked away by the formation eye, and this formation eye was the key to maintaining this self-enchantment.
"Do you think Qing Huan is a spiritual stone?" Jiang Beiran couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Because the True Yuan Tiangang Jue can transform one part of the profound energy in the cultivator's body into three thirds of spiritual energy and then emit it, so after practicing the True Yuan Tiangang Jue, Lu Qinghuan did look like a walking spiritual stone, but Jiang Beiran really didn't expect that he could actually
Use it as a spiritual stone.
'etc……'
When the idea of using Gu Qinghuan as a spiritual stone flashed through his mind, Jiang Beiran suddenly raised his eyebrows, and a good idea worth trying formed in his mind.
"Qing Huan, don't panic, your profound energy was just sucked into this barrier, you can still suck it back in."
"Please teach me, senior brother."
"Sit down cross-legged."
Gu Qinghuan nodded and sat down cross-legged very obediently.
After a little research on how to set up the formation, Jiang Beiran took out a few talismans and talismans from the Qiankun Ring and pasted them around Gu Qinghuan.
"Okay, now start running the True Essence Tiangang Jue."
"yes."
After agreeing, Gu Qinghuan began to run the True Yuan Tiangang Technique.
‘It really works!’
He watched the spiritual energy from his own barrier pour into Gu Qinghuan's body, and then took away part of the profound energy from Gu Qinghuan's body to maintain the barrier.
‘Isn’t this a perpetual motion machine!?’
As a "spiritual stone", Gu Qinghuan was able to maintain the operation of his own enchantment, and then relied on the True Yuan Tiangang Art to turn one point of spiritual energy into three points. After this back and forth, the two actually reached a balance.
In this way, Jiang Beiran no longer needs to worry about consuming spiritual stones.
"How do you feel?" Jiang Beiran patted Gu Qinghuan and asked.
"Reporting to Senior Brother, the efficiency of running the True Yuan Tiangang Art here is much higher than outside, but... the time I can persist is probably shorter than outside."
'Oh...this is a problem.'
Although Gu Qinghuan's current state seems to have added a perpetual motion machine to his self-enchantment, he is still a human being and his cultivation level is not high enough, so he cannot constantly dissolve the mysterious energy into spiritual energy and emit it.
But no matter what, this is a good method. It can not only maintain the operation of the self-enchantment, but also help Gu Qinghuan better practice the True Essence Tiangang Jue.
When Gu Qinghuan's cultivation reached a higher level and he became more proficient in the Zhen Yuan Tiangang Jue, Jiang Beiran felt that he would have the opportunity to see the day when he turned into a "perpetual motion machine".
"Qing Huan, you still always bring surprises to me. From today on, you will come to this barrier every day to practice the True Yuan Tiangang Art and maintain the operation of the formation."
"yes!"
Gu Qinghuan was very happy when he heard that he could help his senior brother.
Seeing that Gu Qinghuan looked like he was going to fight for himself, Jiang Beiran took out a bead from the Qiankun Ring and handed it to him: "In the future, you will hold this bead when you practice in the barrier. In case of backlash or other situations,
, just bite it into pieces immediately, which will allow you to leave the barrier directly."
"Thank you, senior brother." Gu Qinghuan took the beads and saluted.
"Okay, then this barrier will be left to you for the next period of time." After patting Lu Qinghuan's shoulder, Jiang Beiran disappeared instantly.
Looking at the empty formation room, Gu Qinghuan bowed deeply towards the place where his senior brother was standing and said: "Please rest assured, senior brother, Qinghuan will live up to his expectations."
After leaving the self-enchantment, Jiang Beiran got on the auspicious clouds and returned to Shuijingtang. When he came to Tinglan Waterside Pavilion, Jiang Beiran knocked on the door.
With a "bang", the door was opened, but it was not Xiaoduo who opened the door, but Shi Fenglan.
"Xiao Beiran, come on, come on, I've developed a new routine."
Seeing the extremely excited Shi Fenglan, Jiang Beiran shook his head helplessly and decided to play a game with her before leaving.
