☆、1724_ swallowing feeling
Sharing the perception of the spiritual power of my predecessors, I only felt goosebumps all over my body, and even the cracks in the bones looked like ants were crawling, and the hand holding the sword was eager to stab myself.
Pei Bing: "I'm still isolating this perception, right?"
Me: "No, it's okay, no. ”
This uncomfortable perception does not hurt me, and the psychological discomfort does not hinder my normal movements, the evidence is that the number of Psychic Fruits I refine per unit of time is still slowly but steadily increasing—because my proficiency has been rising, and it has not yet reached the end—when the attacks of nearby creatures hit my side, my dodge was still relaxed and calm, and I was not wiped by the attacks, and the recovery speed of spiritual power did not decrease.
Since it's not harmful, it's just a psychological response, so I need to overcome this feeling on my own.
The greedy devouring sensation along the remnants of the souls of my predecessors revealed a coveted meaning to me. I tried to tell if this was the instinct of appetite, or if the spirit vein of the cultivation pool was already conscious, I started from the experience of raising Xiaoice sculptures, and made a judgment with Pei Bing:
"It's not conscious. ”
Then it is a simple appetite, it will not make a profit choice, as long as it senses that there is something to eat, it will come to devour, and its consistent invincibility in the Gu cultivation pond makes it lack fear and do not retreat.
When it sensed my existence, when it wanted to use me as food, its greed caused the abnormal aura in the Gu Cultivation Pond to change, from scattered to directional, pointing at me. The creatures in my neighborhood were the first to react, and they turned around, all facing me.
I retracted my observation of the greed at the core of the anomalous spirit vein, and replaced myself with a fake shell, a new fake shell made from the core of the Bright Fruit Kernel refined from the matter in the core. With Senior Xin's body and spiritual power as a medium, I was able to refine the material he came into contact with, but it was only because of the distortion and change of space, and the fact that I partially isolated Senior Xin for my own safety, my refining was a little difficult, and I couldn't refine everything that Senior Xin came into contact with, which gave the abnormal spiritual vein core the opportunity to devour his spiritual power. When I get up to the level and give me enough time, I think even with the quarantine I might be able to refine all the cores.
...... So, the core mobilized a large number of creatures to attack me, not only because they thought I was delicious, but also because I was a threat to it and something to be eradicated?
☆、1725_Retreat
After I changed into a new fake shell and ate the flesh of the new Tongming fruit, I found that I could influence the abnormal aura, although I couldn't do a large mobilization, but I could slightly shift the abnormal aura pointed at me, some of the anomalous aura was a little to the east, and some of the anomalous aura was a little south...... Confuse the creatures so they still attack each other and bypass me alone.
The core of the spiritual vein seems to have violated its instructions because of its abnormal aura, and it has increased its control, which is reflected in the core that it absorbs the pseudo-corpses inside more ferociously, and the operation of the material inside the core seems to have changed, a new structure has appeared, and the chewing sensation of the spiritual power of the pseudo-corpses has also changed somewhat.
I don't know exactly what kind of change it was, but when it changed, I used the new substance in the core to refine the new Luminous Fruit, and then made a new fake shell. When the anomalous aura took on a new twist, a new false shell and a new flesh assisted me in interfering with it again.
Then it became a tug-of-war. The core kept changing, and I adjusted accordingly, always making sure that I wouldn't become a concentrated target of the creatures here, but correspondingly, my spiritual power was drastically depleted in this constant adjustment, and I quickly went from a near-full state - before the spiritual vein core troubled me, my spiritual power had basically recovered to full - to only seventy percent.
"Retreat. I said to Pei Bing.
Pei Bing: "There are still two percent to consume." ”
Me: "At this consumption rate, I won't be able to get out of the Gu Cultivation Pool before I withdraw at fifty percent." ”
Pei Bing: "What about the big trouble before your Jindan?"
Me: "That kind of joke is not important, I'll talk about it later, and I can't get married for the time being, so I'm not in a hurry." "It's better to be in a safe place, and the Gu Cultivation Pond needs to be taken seriously.
*
In the process of my retreat, I verified Elder Hui Mushroom's statement, the core of the spirit vein does not exist in the spirit vein with fixed coordinates, it can move in the Gu cultivation pool at will, for example, now I feel that it has always been under my feet, moving with my movements, following me to the death, trying to find an opportunity to eat me.
To that end, it even did not hesitate to direct the attacks of the creatures towards itself, hoping that the attacks would kill me, but I saw that the situation was not good, and flew into the air - do not doubt my instinct to dodge the attack - dodged the wave, but then I noticed that something appeared above my head, and in my five senses and spiritual perception, there was not an extra object above my head, but I was sure it was.
I slammed down, narrowly dodging another wave of attacks.
☆, 1726_ Hunt
At this time, I found that inside the core, in addition to the pseudo-corpse and the invisible substance, there was some more visible powder, and I couldn't see what the powder was, but after staring carefully for a while, I found that every time I used the substance in the core to refine a new batch of Tongming Fruit, the amount of powder would increase even more.
The waste of refining the Ming Fruit?
Isn't all the waste restructured to become part of the kernel or the pulp?
The pulp of the Tongming fruit is a substance that is beneficial to me after eating, and the pit or pulp is a substance that needs to be eliminated when eating but actually has other functions, so what is it that cannot be refined into the Tongming fruit except for these two?
The core crashed into me again and again with attacks that were channeled towards it, and I relied on my long-trained dodging ability and Pei Bing's help to keep me harmless. Yes, I have to stay harmless now, because I've found that badly injured creatures can be eaten by the core.
I'm not sure what constitutes a 'serious injury' in the core definition, and while all it eats now is nearing death, I'm not sure that my little injuries won't be magnified infinitely by it while it's chasing me so closely.
In the process of chasing and killing me, the core had already eaten a number of creatures, and some of the creatures it ate fell next to Xin's predecessors, but this part of the creatures was not properly preserved by the core like the pseudo-corpses in front, but more like consumables, and quickly changed from a blur of seriously injured flesh to a skeleton, and then even the skeleton disappeared.
...... In this way, the invisible matter in the core also contains the things it eats, such as artifacts and biological corpses. Is it a corpse that I removed when I was refining the Luminous Fruit? No, the amount is too small, and refining the corpse of a stranger is acceptable to me now.
"Pei Lin, come this way. In the distance, a voice came, it was Zhuhong's senior.
With Xin Chuan Lan's senior's abrupt confession of the Lord in front of me, I don't dare to believe in the summons of Zhuhong's predecessor, but in fact, it doesn't make much difference whether I believe it or not, because the direction of my current actions is basically not under my own control, mainly depends on which direction the core blocks me from - otherwise I would have run out of the Gu Cultivation Pond a long time ago, and I can still run for a long time and still circle around the spiritual vein?
☆, 1727_ array
I replied loudly, "I can't get through, I can't control the direction." ”
Senior Zhuhong: "Come over even if you are injured, can you escape to a safe place by following it completely?" Or do you just point to the exhaustion of spiritual power to activate the teleportation charm?"
He's right, I seem to be pretty waxy right now.
I pinched the teleportation charm and asked Pei Bing to suspend his protection of me, and I really didn't care if I was injured, and rushed in the direction of Zhuhong's predecessor - whether it was Zhuhong's predecessor who set a trap for me there, or the spiritual vein core magnified my small injuries and devoured me, I had to teleport and teleport directly back to the sect......
I think this is a reasonable transmission of a critical situation, so I don't know if my father recognizes this 'reasonableness', or will I have to be punished first when I go back?
It was only after getting close to Zhuhong's senior that I noticed that he had set up a formation, and it was at this time that I noticed that many places around me, including the places I walked through when I was chased by the core, had become part of the formation. This is a dynamic array, each node has a long list of substitutes, that is, when a node is destroyed, there will immediately be a substitute to replace the old node and become a new node, so that the operation of the entire array is not affected.
This kind of node replacement is very common, when used, some are artificially set up items, a object is broken on top of object B, B object is broken and then C object replaces; and some, do not specify which substitute is the replacement, but set a general rule, when an object is broken, the surrounding objects that meet certain conditions will become substitutes, take over its functions.
Zhu Hong's predecessors should have used the latter method, because the destruction in the Gu cultivation pool was too frequent, if it was to set up specific replacements, then at least hundreds of single nodes would have to be set up, and it would not take a few months to set up a large array...... He goes to Shuixi City for a period of time every year, is it really just to stay? Is it true that he doesn't do something that is very continuous, just waiting for the right time to erupt?
"There's a teleportation array," Zhuhong's senior said to me, pointing to a point, "as long as you're not infected by an anomalous aura, you'll be teleported to Shuixi City after stepping there, and the rest of the matter has nothing to do with you." ”
The array of Zhuhong's predecessors is a nested array as a whole, that is, it is composed of multiple arrays, and each array in it has its own independent function, and more other functions will be derived after combination.
I circled around the teleportation array and asked, "What about you, senior?"
Senior Zhuhong: "You have two choices now: first, step on it yourself, and second, I will assist the spiritual vein core to send you up." ”
Me: "How do I know that the teleportation array is not inside the core of the spiritual vein?"
Zhuhong senior: "You can bet on it." ”
