Chapter 632: The Divine Stone of Accumulation of Spirit and the Soul of the Gu God
"Spell soundproofing..."
By the lake, next to the wooden house.
Li Guanqi leaned against the wall of the wooden house and looked at the bright red peach blossom forest not far away with a surprised expression.
At this time, Dragon Halberd, who had transformed into a human form again, was sitting next to the tombstone under the tree, leaning on the tombstone of his late husband, Aaron Dragon King, and talking with a smile.
Li Guanqi couldn't hear what she was saying.
Because when Long Ji paid homage to his deceased husband in the past, he actually controlled the floating spiritual energy between heaven and earth, condensed it into spiritual power, and formed a spiritual power circuit in the air. He then released a sound-proof spiritual shield to sound-isolate the surrounding tombstone.
This is a very advanced surgical technique.
Scientific name - external surgery.
Casting a spell is essentially the formation of a spiritual circuit.
The spiritual power circuits are basically formed within the body.
However, the technique of "external surgery" does not need to form a spiritual power circuit inside the human body, but controls the spiritual power to form a spiritual power circuit in the external air to perform the magic.
This approach is extremely restrictive.
Because the outside air is far less stable than the inside of the conjurer's body, various external factors will interfere with the formation of the spiritual circuit.
If you want to perform "external surgery", you need extremely high spiritual power control skills, and the distance of the operation is still very short. If you are not careful, you can easily hurt the operator himself.
High requirements, high risks, but no high returns.
The upper limit of the level of the spells cast using this method is not high.
In the entire history of the New Era, the highest record of external magic was a waterspout technique that barely reached the seventh level.
Moreover, it was completed during a heavy rain, which can be regarded as taking advantage of the weather.
And the identity of the performer?
A demigod level magician from the School of Magic!
He died 1,200 years ago and is known as the first person to control spiritual power in the history of the New Age. His subtle control of spiritual power is extremely wonderful.
Even the legendary semi-god-level spellcaster could only cast a seventh-level spell with the help of external spells.
Totally impractical.
Therefore, the current attitude of the magic circle towards "external spellcasting" is basically regarded as a practice method, which can only be used to practice the exquisite control of spiritual power. When put into actual combat, it is simply thankless.
In addition, in some groups of academic conjurers, this is also considered an advanced show-off technique. Showing off such a skill at a party will definitely attract the cheers and admiration of many conjurer sisters.
Either practice or pretend to be 13.
Doesn't it seem practical?
Li Guanqi thought this way before.
However.
Just now, Long Ji actually showed off his "external magic" in front of him, manipulating spiritual power to form a spiritual power circuit outside the body, turning it into an invisible soundproof spiritual shield, covering the whispers between himself and his late husband.
What is Dragon Halberd?
An artifact.
Her body does not have the ability to store spiritual power, nor does it have the function of forming a spiritual power circuit in her body.
But she has the ability to control spiritual energy.
Therefore, the seemingly useless technique of external spellcasting is the only way for Long Ji to cast spells.
The level of this soundproof spirit shield is not high.
If I had to judge the level, based on Li Guanqi's judgment, it was at most the level of a third-level spell.
Therefore, if he wanted to eavesdrop on the whispers between Long Ji and his late husband, he could actually do it easily.
But of course he is not so wicked.
The soundproof spirit shield of the dragon halberd is obviously designed to protect against gentlemen but not villains.
And Li Guanqi believes that in most situations, he can barely be considered a gentleman.
"Dragon Halberd seems different from you."
Li Guanqi leaned against the wall of the wooden house, looked at the red-haired woman next to the tombstone under the tree, and said slowly in his mind: "At least, I have never heard of any artifact that has the ability to control spiritual power and cast spells."
"Then it's a long story."
Whenever this kind of question arises, Shunkong always answers Li Guanqi's doubts, "It's true that no master craftsman has tried an artifact that can cast spells on its own, but the result is the same. No matter how they do it, it will always work."
I can't find an artifact that can cast god-level spells.
At most, it can only cast ninth-level spells.
Because the spiritual power circuit of a god-level spell can only be stabilized in the internal environment of a god-level spell master.
As for an artifact with this kind of "internal environment of a divine-level magician", the craftsmen were limited by technical problems and could not create it until Ragnarok.
Artifact, artifact.
What is an artifact?
It's not an instrument of the gods, it's called a divine instrument.
Only things that can provide help to the gods are called artifacts.
Moreover, artifacts need a master, and whatever they want to do requires the help of the master's power.
An artifact made specifically for casting spells. After absorbing the power of the god’s master, it cannot cast god-level spells and cannot help the gods. What kind of artifact is it called? It’s called a useless snack that is holding back.
."
At the end of the sentence, Shunkong couldn't help but laugh.
"besides."
At this time, Ares suddenly spoke up and added: "The master craftsmen discovered that if you want the artifact to have the ability to control spiritual power, form a spiritual power circuit in the body, and cast spells, then you must add a
A special material that cannot be replaced.
In the old days, Western craftsmen called it "Colomis" because the first craftsman who discovered the effect of this material was named William Koromis.
The Eastern Divine Craftsman directly calls it the ‘Spirit-Infused Divine Stone’.
The problem is, once the Yunling Divine Stone is added, no matter how you do it, the hardness of the artifact will be damaged and it will become 'soft'. Therefore, similar to the broken knife, my sister's type of artifact will never add the Yunling Divine Stone.
.
The dragon halberd is also of the same type.
So she doesn’t have a spiritual stone, so she can’t form a spiritual circuit in her body.”
"But she has the ability to control spiritual power, so she can cast spells outside her body and cast some low-level spells."
Li Guanqi was a little confused, "Logically speaking, an artifact like Fang Tian's painted halberd doesn't seem to need this function, right?"
"Yes."
Ares replied, "Actually, this was an accident. After the dragon halberd was recast for the second time, it suddenly had the ability to control spiritual power. According to the divine craftsman's speculation, it should be a fusion reaction caused by mixing several materials.
Give her the ability to control spiritual power..."
Having said this, he paused for a moment before continuing: "In the old days, when Long Ji and I parted for the last time, she didn't know how to perform magic outside the body."
"Maybe it was her Dragon King husband who taught her?"
Shunkong chuckled, "The Aaron Dragon King that Demon Sword told me just now is a legendary dragon magician."
"I'm too lazy to laugh at this bitch."
Demon Sword said lazily, "It's too licking, there's no way I can be saved."
"You know nothing."
Ares said angrily.
"How did you two meet? Did you meet Xiaoxue together?"
Li Guanqi first glanced at Long Ji, who was still sitting next to the tombstone and talking to his deceased husband, then withdrew his gaze and asked in his mind.
Dragon Halberd is obviously not finished yet, so why not chat while waiting.
"No, it has nothing to do with my sister. In fact, she had a master who knew the God of War, and we often competed together. Over time, she and I got to know each other."
Ares replied.
"Wait, wait, wait."
Shunkong's voice was full of surprise, "Turtle Shell, you are such a shell. If the God of War wore you and the previous owner of the dragon halberd to compete against each other, wouldn't you have been getting slashed and poked by the dragon halberd? And then you kept getting slashed.
After being poked, over time, you fell in love with her? Ah, this..."
"Damn, your habit is a bit weird."
Demon Sword was also a little stunned.
"Malaka!"
Ares was completely speechless and didn't even bother to explain.
Li Guanqi couldn't help but smile.
The topic ends here.
His mind gradually quieted down.
The dragon halberd in the peach blossom forest finally said goodbye to his deceased husband a few minutes later and walked out of the peach blossom forest.
At this time, it was getting late.
A brilliant red sunset hung high in the dusky sky.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. We are about to part ways, and suddenly I have a lot to say to him."
Under the afterglow of the evening, the dragon halberd came slowly, walked up to Li Guanqi, and bowed slightly to greet him.
"Your extracorporeal surgery skills are very good."
Li Guanqi looked at the red-haired woman and chuckled: "Did Aaron Dragon King teach you?"
"Um."
Longji nodded, looking at the lake next to him that reflected the sunset and glowed golden in the afterglow, his beautiful red eyes full of memories.
"I often think that it would be great if that master craftsman could put a spiritual stone in my body.
In this way, I can often study spells with him. After all, I can only cast spells outside my body, and I can't even cast sixth-level spells, so I can't keep up with his understanding of spells."
"Shall I help you find a piece later?"
Li Guanqi asked.
"Forget it, thank you for your kindness."
Hearing this, Longji just smiled slightly and said, "It's all over now. It's meaningless to get a spiritual stone now. What's more, if you have the materials and don't have a master craftsman, you can't recast it and add materials."
"So what are we doing now?"
As she said that, the red-haired woman looked at Li Guanqi and asked curiously: "You told the dragons before that you would take them to conquer the grassland, but you gave them three days to arrange their family affairs, so what should we do now? Here
Wait? Or go to the grassland to explore the wind first?"
"Almost."
Li Guanqi said calmly: "I want to go back to the Baiwei King's City in the grassland. Regarding the information about the major tribes in the grassland, the Centaur royal family must have detailed tracking. I can just go and get the ready-made information."
"Then... go over now?"
Long Ji asked.
"No."
Li Guanqi looked at the forest in the distance bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, "I also want to meet the Nine Palace-level demon species in this dragon clan's ancestral nest. If possible, I hope to get them to join me."
"Yeah, that's fine."
Long Ji nodded lightly and said with a smile: "When I go to see them, I can also take you and Xiaoxue to enjoy the beautiful scenery of this place. Although this is a taboo place, the two taboo rules are harmless, and there are actually
It is much bigger than it looks from the outside, and there are many beautiful places. Although I have been tired of seeing it in the past three thousand years, you will probably like it very much when you see it for the first time."
"I just realized that the two taboo rules in this place seem to be invalid for artifacts?"
Li Guanqi looked at her uncertainly.
Previously, he and several of his artifacts came in because of the portal deliberately opened by the green dragon Edson, directly ignoring the entry restrictions of the two taboo rules of the Dragon Clan's Ancestral Nest.
He thought it was because of the portal.
But now the dragon halberd is here, so the taboo rule doesn't apply to the artifact?
"Many of the taboo rules in taboo places are invalid for artifacts."
Long Ji said softly: "If you stay in the wilderness longer and visit more forbidden places, you will naturally understand."
"I see."
Li Guanqi nodded, "Let's go, it's time for us to meet those monsters."
"Let's ride on the dragon."
Long Ji looked at the horizon with some expectancy.
There, one golden and one black, two dragons were flapping their wings and hovering over the sea of clouds.
Longji looked at the two of them and chuckled: "Aaron always admired the Yinglong body of the third-generation Golden Dragon King when he was alive, but now, I can ride a golden Yinglong. I have to say, the fate is really
wonderful."
"roar!"
"roar!"
As if they heard her voice, Cade and Hades suddenly flapped their wings and flew quickly from the sky.
"Master Divine Weapon, when I came to see you, you ignored me, and now you still want to ride on me. It's a bit too much."
Cade's voice was a little depressed, but he still flew over.
"Cut the nonsense."
Longji said lightly, and then his body flashed and appeared directly on top of the golden Yinglong.
Li Guanqi also flew above Hades' head.
"Let's go and take your new Dragon King to meet Simon's four guys!"
"roar!"
"roar!"
Following the command of the dragon halberd, the two dragons flapped their wings and flew roaring to the sky, passing through layers of sea of clouds until they disappeared into the depths of the brilliant sunset.
…
…
Southern Xinjiang, Yeze Mountains.
The humidity is thick and insects and snakes are everywhere.
This rainforest mountain range is no different from most areas in southern Xinjiang. They are all the same giant trees, swamps, poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions.
"Ah, I'm so tired from working. Captain, there is a lake over there. Can I go there and take a bath? You can come and take a peek."
"Shut up, Jiasan, don't disturb the boss's search for spirits."
"Ah, yes, yes, the boss won't say anything, so you, the second oldest, will be in charge, right?"
"you……"
"Quiet!"
"yes."
"yes."
The bright moon hangs high and the night is deep.
A team of seven people wearing black robes and hoods walked slowly through the forest, heading deeper into the Yeze Mountains.
Each of them has a conspicuous black insect tattoo on the back of their left hand, which looks a bit like a centipede, but also has a scorpion tail hook.
"Are you proficient in the use of Jia Qi, Jia Qi, and the Soul Yun Divine Stone?"
Suddenly, in the middle of the team, a petite girl in black robe stood on tiptoes, jumped and walked backwards, looking at the man in black robe who was walking behind her.
"Don't worry, I have practiced it in the ancestral temple."
The man in black robe let out a gentle manly laugh.
"Yeah, that's right, that's good!"
The girl in black robe chuckled.
The man in black robe raised his head and looked up at the bright moon.
The bright moonlight shone down, illuminating his handsome face that looked both male and female.
It was Lin Xianbai.
"Found it!"
Suddenly, the black-robed captain who was walking at the front of the team stopped, then made a seal with one hand, cast a spell to bless himself, and turned into a strong wind passing through the forest.
Lin Xianbai and others quickly used magic to keep up.
But the captain in black robe was obviously much faster than them, and in the blink of an eye he was able to throw them out of sight.
"Captain is still the same."
"Uh-huh, yes."
"We call it a small team, but actually we are just accompanying each other. He always goes on his own."
"By the time we arrive, everything will be basically over."
The team members chatted with each other while tracking.
Lin Xianbai, who also turned into a strong wind and shuttled between the trees, frowned.
"arrive."
Soon, everyone in the team, including Lin Xianbai, stopped.
What appeared in front of them at this time was a small village with bright lights and corpses everywhere.
Under the bright firelight, the tragic death scenes of all the villagers were very clear, and there was almost no complete corpse.
The broken corpses and mutilated limbs were hung all over the eaves and walkways. Scarlet blood was constantly flowing, emitting a pungent smell of blood.
"..."
Lin Xianbai looked at this scene, his pupils narrowed.
"Hey!"
The girl next to him jumped up and patted his shoulder, stuck out her tongue, and said with a smile: "Just get used to it, this is the captain's style, I love it very much, hehe."
This woman's tongue is extremely weird. It is as long and slender as a snake tongue and has a bifurcated tip. There is also a strange black tattoo on the tongue coating.
"Wow - wow -"
Suddenly, deep in the silent village, a burst of baby crying suddenly sounded, which seemed extremely harsh in this environment.
Lin Xianbai and others immediately looked over.
I saw the hooded captain in black robes walking slowly among the corpses on the ground, holding a bloody baby's head in his right hand.
The severed head was bleeding profusely, but the baby's head was still crying like a child who had lost its toy.
"Hey, I found it."
The girl put her hands behind her head and smiled.
"This group of ignorant monkeys celebrated its birth with a bonfire dinner, but they didn't know that their end was coming."
The captain in black robe carried the crying baby's head to Lin Xianbai and others, and made a hoarse voice.
"Jia Qi."
Then, the black-robed captain looked at Lin Xianbai coldly, "The next step is your business. Use the Soul-Enriching Divine Stone to absorb this wisp of the reincarnated soul and spiritual power of the Gu God. You should know how to do it.
Don't make mistakes for me, my team does not allow mistakes, if you make one mistake, these villagers will be your fate."
"Yes, Captain!"
Lin Xianbai nodded heavily, then flipped his right hand and took out a small dark green stone out of thin air.
"Bang!"
Seeing this, the black-robed captain used his right hand to forcefully crush the crying baby's head and burst it open, causing blood to spray out.
The crying stopped suddenly.
"Buzz——"
The next moment, Lin Xianbai raised the green stone high, closed his eyes, and kept whispering curses in his mouth, causing the green stone to emit a strange and coquettish green light.
"Let's go outside and don't disturb him."
The captain in black robe stuck out his tongue, licked his bloody right hand, then turned and left.
The crowd followed behind.
Deep in the gloomy village, in the dead silence where corpses were everywhere, there were only bursts of whispered curses and flickering strange green lights...
