Chapter 16: Lingbao
Looking at the full Dao stones, Lu Xiao's heart was about to bloom.
He had already learned from the villagers of Ice Thorn Village that the spiritual treasure generated by the Dao Stone Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was also the currency used by the monks of this world to trade, one or two stones could be made into a hundred Dao beads, and here, roughly speaking, it was a few thousand catties!
Being able to give birth to so many Dao stones, this place, I don't know how long it has existed, it is very likely that it has existed here since ancient times, and the blue astrolabe-shaped thing in the middle is probably also a great treasure.
After a short period of excitement, Lu Xiao made another difficulty, this place, I'm afraid that those ancient monks outside can't come in at all, the weird and unpredictable sword light, most of them are emitted by this astrolabe, plus the fog that envelops here, with the strength of those ancient monks now, there is no way to break through.
After thinking about it for a long time, and didn't come up with any way to take the treasure here, Lu Xiao reluctantly withdrew from this space.
Command a large number of ancient monks to fill in this place and restore it to its original appearance, and then let the remaining ancient monks return to the royal city.
Although I didn't get those Dao Stones on this trip, the harvest was quite rich, and so many spiritual materials were enough to create a weapon for everyone in the city.
"It's a pity, I don't know what these metals are, and I guess I don't know anyone in the city. Lu Xiao sighed in his heart, he knew almost nothing about this aspect, and it was impossible for those villagers to know this.
The ancient ruins with the Dao Stone, Lu Xiao had already made a mark with his divine sense to ensure that it would not be stolen by others.
Early the next morning, the ancient monks who had gone out returned, took out the black metal from the space in their body, and placed it in an open space in the center of the city.
Seeing the piles of black metal that exuded aura like a hill, many villagers smiled, and Sang Mu and a few friends rushed up eagerly, grabbed a few pieces of metal and played with them in their hands.
As soon as the metal was grasped by them, Sang Mu and the others couldn't help but let out a pleasant cry, as if they were enjoying it very much.
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, is there anything special about this metal?
"What did you feel?" asked Lu Xiao.
Hearing Lu Xiao's voice, Sang Mu immediately replied respectfully: "Back to Shangxian, I feel that there seems to be a special energy in this metal, which is very compatible with the aura in my body, holding it, the aura in my body is a little active!"
Lu Xiao's heart moved, the aura in these people's bodies contained the breath of annihilation, how could this metal fit with it?
This kind of Dao rule contained in their aura will only happen because of the existence of the black sword, and if you are a bystander, unless you have lived with the dead corpse since you were a child and feel the dead qi in it, or simply it is possible to comprehend the Dao after your own death.
Lu Xiao couldn't imagine that there was still a spiritual material that could contain this kind of aura.
Leaning out his divine sense and examining those black metals, Lu Xiao felt puzzled again, above the black metal, there were like dots of stars twinkling, looking extremely holy, and what it exuded was also an incomparably pure aura, and there was no dead air in it.
"It's strange, there's no one on it!" Lu Xiao wondered.
"Do you all feel this way?" Lu Xiao asked the other young men who were playing with the metal.
The men nodded in unison.
Lu Xiao pondered for a moment, it seems that these metals are really good things, and using them to make weapons has certain benefits for cultivation, but unfortunately he doesn't have a physical body now, so he can't exactly feel the attributes contained in them.
Immediately, Lu Xiao summoned all the ancient monks and people from the Ice Thorn Village to the tower where he was located, and ordered everyone to start forging furnaces on the spot and using these metals to make weapons.
Seeing so many materials, the eyes of the Icethorn villagers lit up, and they were even more ecstatic when they felt the aura that made them feel more cordial.
"The immortals are so powerful!"
"There is even such a magical material!"
One by one, the villagers were amazed.
Lu Xiao chuckled in her heart, urging them to hurry up and work.
For a while, the city was lively again, and many villagers took the iron tools from their homes and melted them into an iron furnace more than one person high, which was used for the black metal.
When everyone put the metal into the furnace to smelt, Lu Xiao paid special attention to it, afraid that this ordinary appliance would not be able to melt it.
Fortunately, the metal did not seem to be able to withstand the heat, and it melted into a liquid state in less than half an hour.
The village blacksmith pours the liquid metal into a mold and allows it to cool before forging it.
Soon, one long sword after another took shape and was distributed to everyone.
The group got their newly crafted weapons and happily ran to the side of the open space to fight each other.
Lu Xiao sighed secretly, the one who forged weapons with such a precious material in such a primitive way is probably the only one.
But at the moment, there is no other way, it is not easy to find these metal materials here, and it is impossible to do it if the requirements are too high.
Ignoring the forging weapons here, Lu Xiao began to study the soul devouring technique.
This technique looks evil, but the power is indeed very great, but anyone whose divine sense is not as good as his own will inevitably be devoured.
However, when it comes to cultivating, it is also very troublesome, Lu Xiao has simply tried a few times before, but they all ended in failure, first, the current divine consciousness is still not strong enough, if you want to completely practice, the divine consciousness only needs to be about twice as strong as your current one.
And the most difficult step is to condense the soul core, Lu Xiao has tried many times before, but he has failed in this step, once the divine consciousness in the control center forms a whirlpool, the divine consciousness in the sea of consciousness begins to riot, causing the vortex he has worked so hard to condense instantly collapses.
In Lu Xiao's opinion, if you want to solve this problem, you have to make your divine consciousness so small that it is just enough to condense a whirlpool, and then forcibly compress it with a large amount of divine consciousness power and condense it into a soul core, but now Lu Xiao can't disperse such a huge divine consciousness at all, even if he can disperse his divine consciousness, in the process of condensing the soul core, he has nowhere to absorb the divine consciousness, and it has become a dead knot.
Now that he has controlled these ancient cultivators, Lu Xiao has thought of a way, maybe he can use this to cultivate this soul devouring technique!
Calling the three thousand ancient monks to the side of the tower, Lu Xiao tried to separate part of the divine consciousness and enter a sea of ancient monk consciousness, and after a while, it really succeeded.
Lu Xiao was overjoyed in his heart, and then divided his divine consciousness into three thousand parts and transferred them to the three thousand ancient monks, leaving only a little in his own sea of consciousness.
A feeling of weakness came, and Lu Xiao made a simple adjustment, preparing to take the first step and compress his divine sense.
The small amount of divine consciousness in the control body formed a miniature vortex, and then, Lu Xiao began to control the vortex to slowly shrink.
