Chapter 159 The business of 350,000 spirit stones!
Chapter 159 The business of 355,000 spiritual stones!
The mountain behind Jiange.
Blood runes slowly emerged, and the grass reflected in them seemed to be stained with bright red blood.
Mo Fan was stunned and concentrated his mental energy to look at the bloody runes on the grass.
After a moment, his brows knitted together.
"What an ancient talisman." Mo Fan frowned slightly.
"You need to break these runes to start teleportation and enter the sealed space."
Mo Fan has learned from the classics that although the two "holy corpses" are nominally sealed in Hidden Sword Peak.
But it is not really inside the Hidden Sword Peak, but an independent small space is constructed through the natural field on the Hidden Sword Peak.
The so-called "holy corpse" is in that small independent space.
If you want to open the teleportation array leading to the small space, you must first solve the bloody runes in front of you.
"There's some trouble——"
With a little awareness, Mo Fan knew that these ancient bloody runes were very troublesome.
"Almost every talisman contains several magic array source patterns.
“The blood-colored runes on the outside are okay, and it’s not too troublesome to crack.
"But the runes in the center are more complex. Most of the runes in the core area are the source runes of the magic circle at the back, which are too difficult to crack.
"And each of these talisman patterns is not simple, but they are also connected and interlocked with each other, and weaved together into a formation.
"If it is broken open by force, terrifying power will erupt."
Mo Fan made some calculations in his mind, and his face immediately darkened a bit.
"I'm afraid that the entire Hidden Sword Peak and even most of Yuxu Academy will be razed to the ground by then."
Thinking of this, Mo Fan wiped his hands with cold sweat and gave up the idea of forcibly breaking through the bloody magic circle.
At this moment, Liu Xiyan came over at some point.
"You have also discovered that he is indeed the most outstanding disciple in the history of Chixia Peak."
She looked at the bloody talisman pattern, and it seemed that she was not surprised.
Mo Fan was surprised by this: "The elder knows that there is a magic circle here?"
Also, where did the title of the most outstanding disciple in the history of Chixia Peak come from?
How come I don't know?
Liu Xiyan shook her head and said, "I found out a few days ago."
After pondering for a moment, she explained: "Liu Jian took people from the Demon Sect and sneaked into the mountain behind Hidden Sword Peak, and the academy began to pay attention to this place.
"Later, the demons did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to tear apart the space and forcefully attack Yuxu Academy. It is not difficult to guess that their target is most likely Hidden Sword Peak.
"So, the mountain behind Hidden Sword Peak has always been the focus of the academy.
"For this reason, your master has actually been here many times. The reason you didn't see her is because you happened to miss her every time."
"That's it." After hearing this, Mo Fan had already guessed the answer.
Liu Xiyan paused and continued to explain:
"Actually, as a leader in the field of magic circles, your master noticed something was wrong here very early and knew that there was a magic circle hidden here.
"It's just that the magic circle is too old, and many of the runes have never been seen by Blue Star before. She couldn't find a way to open it for a while.
"Until ten days ago, she discovered a classic book in Jiange.
"There are several ancient runes recorded in the classics.
"Although she didn't recognize the words in the ancient books, she felt that those ancient runes might be related to the hidden magic circle in the back mountain, so she gave it a try."
"This move reveals this somewhat terrifying blood-colored magic circle."
Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Liu Xiyan's eyes: "This blood-colored magic circle is a powerful weapon. If it explodes, most of Yuxu Academy will be razed to the ground.
"The last time the people from the Demon Sect sneaked into the back mountain, they probably wanted to detonate this bloody rune and completely destroy Yuxu Academy."
After speaking, Liu Xiyan frowned and said: "Of course, judging from the last time the demons crazily attacked Yuxu Academy, there may be a deeper reason.
"As for the specific reason, I don't know."
After hearing these words, Mo Fan said directly: "It's the holy corpse."
It involves the most powerful.
Even a corpse is full of unknowns.
It's very possible that a little bit of residual energy could kill him, a newbie in the Transcendent Realm.
Therefore, Mo Fan never thought of exploring alone.
At this time, it is more reliable to let the school serve as a backup.
It feels safe to have a tall person supporting you in front of you.
At least the main force in the exploration should be his master Xu Chaomu, not him, a newbie who just debuted in the magic circle.
"Holy corpse?" Liu Xiyan was startled, with a face full of surprise.
"Well, the holy corpse is probably the most powerful being. There are two of them, both of which are sealed in the small space connected by the Hidden Sword Peak."
Taking a breath, Mo Fan continued: "I guess the demon clan's goal is the two holy corpses.
"As for what they want to do with the holy corpse, we don't know.
"By the way, I saw these accidentally in the books of Hidden Sword Villa."
Speaking of this, Mo Fan looked at Liu Xiyan seriously: "If my guess is correct, the Sword Mountain of Hidden Sword Villa is actually the current Hidden Sword Peak, right?"
Liu Xiyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "You guessed it right, the Sword Mountain of Hidden Sword Villa is the Hidden Sword Peak at our feet. It was dug out entirely by the ancestors of the school through special means..."
Hearing this, Mo Fan covered his forehead and continued: "Then what I just said is most likely correct. There are two holy corpses hidden in the small space of Hidden Sword Peak.
"I just don't know why the holy corpse is so attractive to demons."
"Yeah." Liu Xiyan nodded thoughtfully.
She pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "It may involve the issue of the strongest breakthrough, otherwise the demon clan would not be able to communicate with the demon clan, and it would be a lot of trouble to plan."
"Probably." Mo Fan nodded.
He has also thought about this issue.
Make the demons go crazy, the most powerful, the holy corpse——
When these three keywords are put together, it is not difficult to think of something.
"I'll go back and discuss with my master first to see how to break this bloody magic circle."
Mo Fan was about to say goodbye and turned around to leave.
Xu Chaomu should indeed come forward in this matter.
You can't take it upon yourself.
He doesn't have that much time to crack this thing.
His first priority is to earn spiritual stones and level up as soon as possible.
"Your master has gone out and won't be back for a while." Liu Xiyan said.
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan paused as soon as he took the step.
He turned around, looked at Liu Xiyan, and asked in surprise: "My master is out?"
So who should I ask for support?
Are there any magic circle masters in the academy?
How many senior sisters are there?
Mo Fan was dumbfounded.
Liu Xiyan shook her head and explained: "This bloody magic circle is very difficult to crack. She has been looking here for five days and five nights without any clue.
"But it's obvious that leaving the Scarlet Array here is another time bomb.
“After the spiritual energy of each peak was revived, they responded to each other and became their own natural fields, and even evolved into today’s mountain protection formation.
"Many facilities must also be powered by these natural fields to operate, such as the trial tower, the Hidden Dragon Monument and some important training rooms -"
Pursing her lips, Liu Xiyan continued: "In fact, the same is true for the sword pavilion. The reason why it can continuously generate sword energy is also because of the existence of the natural field.
“This is also the case on several other peaks.
"So, if the school moves to another location, most of its heritage will be lost, and its status will plummet.
"Considering this, the school applied to the official to grant your master permission to enter a special secret realm——"
"Special secret realm?" Mo Fan wondered.
"Well, a special secret realm with the inheritance of the most powerful magic circle."
"I understand—" Mo Fan was speechless.
In this case, there is no doubt that Xu Chaomu was sent to study for further studies.
Fortunately, I didn't come out at that time.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to go with Xu Chaomu.
However, for him, the Trial Tower is the best place to learn the magic circle.
If one could fully understand the source patterns of the three thousand magic circles in the trial tower, it would not be difficult to crack the bloody magic circle in front of them.
Sure enough, Liu Xiyan concentrated her mind and explained: "The school wants your master to go to further training, hoping that after her appearance, she can make a breakthrough in the magic circle field and finally solve the bloody magic circle.
"The school will not move unless absolutely necessary, and if there is a holy corpse inside, we cannot let the demons get it."
Liu Xiyan turned around and looked at the gradually disappearing red sky in a daze.
At the same time, the seven ancient runes carved by Mo Fan in various directions on the grass slowly dissipated.
Finally, the bloody magic circle slowly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
After the afterglow faded, Liu Xiyan turned around, with a smile on her tense face:
"Your master said before he left that when you come back, you will be in charge of the Bloody Array for the time being.
"She said that you are the most outstanding genius in the history of Chixia Peak. You will definitely have a way to decipher some blood runes in advance."
Hearing this, Mo Fan was dumbfounded.
Yes, this task still has to fall on you!
Seeing Mo Fan's frown, Liu Xiyan smiled and said, "Don't worry, the school won't let you work in vain."
"If you have any conditions, just raise them. I'll tell the boss. Remember to raise the conditions a little bit, and I'll try my best to fight for you.
"By the way, your master said that you are very keen on earning spiritual stones. All the merit points earned from missions are used to exchange for spiritual stones.
"When I was in the outer sect, I had been refining alchemy in seclusion to earn spiritual stones. I have an unusual persistence in hoarding spiritual stones."
Mo Fan: "..."
Sure enough, the higher-ups of the school knew exactly what he had done.
But he really didn’t hoard spiritual stones.
No amount is enough, so stock up on yarn.
Smiling again, Liu Xiyan said: "Although the amount of spiritual stones reserved by the academy is not large, it is definitely no problem as long as you need it. You should consider it."
Mo Fan concentrated, thought for a while and said: "How to calculate the reward?"
Hearing this, Liu Xiyan turned around and looked at the red grass, and said slowly:
"There are a total of 3,500 blood runes here. Your master said that even if there is only one rune left, it may detonate the magic circle.
"So, the goal is to crack all 3,500 pieces.
"Before she comes back, it will be up to you to crack it. You will probably be paid a certain amount for each rune you crack. It will be the same as when you normally receive merit point tasks, except that you skip the process of issuing merit points and you don't need to redeem them.
"
"How many spiritual stones can be given for cracking a rune?" Mo Fan asked.
"May I ask the leader now?" Liu Xiyan said.
"Okay, please excuse me, elder." Mo Fan nodded.
"No trouble." Liu Xiyan shook her head and took out a palm-sized, crystal-clear jade plaque from her arms.
I saw her eyes closed slightly, concentrating her energy, and heading towards the jade plaque.
After a moment, she opened her eyes and said with a smile: "The message has been passed on to the leader. He will reply immediately after seeing it."
Seeing the novelty on Mo Fan's face, Liu Xiyan smiled and explained:
"This is a communication jade tablet made of special materials. It contains many profound and ancient runes, forming a mysterious communication circle.
"With the jade token in hand, no matter where you are in Blue Star, you can communicate with each other without any delay. It is much easier to use than a mobile phone."
Mo Fan nodded.
Because of the existence of monsters, there is no way to build communication towers all over the world. Mobile phones basically have no signal in the wild, and it is really difficult to use.
After concentrating, Liu Xiyan continued: "Unfortunately, there are very few summons tokens, they were all dug out from the ruins, and they have not been cracked yet.
"At present, only a few people own each force, and they are connected to form a communication network. They can communicate individually and privately, and can also send public information to communicate."
Mo Fan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
If I spend some time and master the source patterns of many magic circles, I might be able to crack this thing.
But he is not interested in this thing for the time being.
When it comes to ancient runes, it takes a lot of time to study.
What he lacks now is time.
If you upgrade a little slowly, you may die young.
At this moment, the jade medal in Liu Xiyan's hand flickered.
Seeing this, Liu Xiyan quickly concentrated, gathered her mental power, and read the information.
Before reading, she also explained: "The function of this thing is actually to transmit thoughts without loss at a very long distance, which is very convenient."
After reading the information, Liu Xiyan said: "The leader said that cracking a rune can give you seventy spirit stones."
"A rune worth seventy spirit stones?" Mo Fan concentrated and thought about it.
Seventy spirit stones for one talisman is quite a lot.
After all, the easy ones are always chosen for cracking in the beginning.
In the previous time, I was afraid that I could crack dozens of blood runes in one day.
The reward can be converted into thousands of spiritual stones!
And while cracking it, Mo Fan will also take time to go to the trial tower to understand the source pattern of the magic circle.
The more you understand the source pattern of the magic circle.
The easier it will be for him to crack it.
Even if the difficulty of cracking will gradually increase later.
But the cracking speed can eventually stabilize within a certain range.
In this way, on average, earning three to four thousand spirit stones a day is not a big problem.
I can earn three to four thousand spiritual stones a day, and even make a wool elixir!
As for waiting for Xu Chaomu to come back and study together?
Mo Fan felt that with the speed of his progress, he would be able to completely solve these bloody runes in two months at most.
Two months later, Xu Chaomu is probably still in the secret realm.
Thinking of this, I seem to have seen the scene where my hand cramped after counting the spiritual stones, and I upgraded rapidly!
After calming down a little, Mo Fan looked at Liu Xiyan, nodded and said, "I think it's okay."
Seeing this, Liu Xiyan smiled, concentrated her energy and conveyed her thoughts towards the jade plaque.
Then, the jade sign flashed every few seconds, and Liu Xiyan seemed to be negotiating something with the leader, Gu Qingshan.
After a while, Liu Xiyan snapped her fingers and put the jade token away, with a rare bright smile on her face:
"Get it, one rune with one hundred spirit stones, use all your abilities, you are going to be prosperous!"
Hearing this, Mo Fan was stunned: "Didn't you say one rune worth seventy spirit stones?"
Liu Xiyan spread her hands: "Didn't you say that I will try my best to fight for you? It's a pity that the leader is still too stingy. No matter what, he only agreed to break one talisman and give him a hundred spiritual stones."
Hearing this, Mo Fan was startled, and a trace of warmth flowed through his heart.
Seeing this, Liu Xiyan shook her head: "There is no need to say polite words. I owe you a lot of favors, so I can only repay a little bit like this."
Hearing this, Mo Fan was moved.
This is no small repayment!
Now the reward for cracking a blood rune has been increased by thirty spirit stones.
Counting the 3,500 blood runes, the income directly increased by 105,000 spirit stones!
This is saving lives!
"But you can also understand the leader a little bit.
"The time for the spiritual energy to recover is still too short, and the spiritual body veins are pitifully small, so naturally there are not many spiritual stones that can be dispatched by all parties.
"For example, some high-level alchemists in the academy who earn a lot of spiritual stones often cannot get their spiritual stones due to the shortage of spiritual stones.
"In this way, the academy can only create exclusive accounts for them, and then let them go to the logistics office to get them after the spiritual stones are fully operational. After all, the academy has disciples like them, and they must first ensure that they have spiritual stones for cultivation—"
Hearing this, Mo Fan was dumbfounded.
He thought of Li Xinghe and Liu Jian.
They probably still have a lot of spiritual stones in their account.
Unfortunately, after running away, the account is effectively gone.
"Your master said that your talent on the way to the magic circle is a bit scary, and you might be able to crack half of the runes before she comes back.
"She may not be able to come back until a year later. By that time, if you work hard to break the formation, the spirit stones will probably be close to 100,000, or even exceed 100,000.
"In the future, if the school's expenses are high, it won't be able to produce so many spiritual stones for a while, and it may have to set up an account for you..."
Hearing this, Mo Fan's face turned dark. He had even anticipated the outcome.
He can crack 3,500 runes in two months.
The reward is converted into 350,000 spirit stones.
You don’t need to think about it to know that the academy can’t produce so many spiritual stones at once!
When the time comes, establishing an account is inevitable!
Mo Fan estimated that it would be good if he could withdraw 20,000 to 30,000 spirit stones from his account in the next month!
This will seriously affect his upgrade progress!
"I@#! Why is it so difficult to earn some spiritual stones?!"
"Uh, what's wrong with you?" Liu Xiyan looked at Mo Fan with a strange look on his face.
"Actually, there are too many spiritual stones for you to use up.
"Even if you practice with spirit stones 24 hours a day, you won't be able to use many spirit stones in a month. You can save them and leave them for your son."
Mo Fan: "..."
You may not believe it.
In fact, no matter how many spiritual stones there are.
I can use it up in one second!
What a sin——
Mo Fan looked sad.
But soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and said quickly: "Elder, my speed of cracking the runes may be a bit fast. I'm afraid that I will empty out the school all at once-"
Liu Xiyan: "???"
What nonsense are you talking about?
Mo Fan took a breath and continued: "Otherwise, the academy should also have primeval stones in reserve, right?
"Although I am keen on earning spiritual stones, in fact, I have a special physique and can break through the realm quickly without the need for spiritual stones, and my cultivation is rapid.
"So I thought about it carefully and decided not to waste the academy's spiritual stones.
"Why don't you change the spiritual stone into a primeval stone? I found in the secret realm that the primeval stone is very effective for studying magic circles! It will help me even more!"
