Chapter 4: The Sacrifice I

Temple of Bones.

This is the temple that Su Shen specially built for the original bone scepter.

A room made of the bones of various demon beasts was filled with a primitive and reckless atmosphere, which seemed a little out of place with the grandeur of the Wuji Sect.

However, this is the environment that the Primordial Bone Scepter likes, and only in this primordial environment can the Primordial Bone Scepter exert its greatest effect, which is also one of the experiences that Su Shen has gained from the Tyrants.

The Bone Scepter was resting on a special altar, and other than that, there was nothing around, but the room was filled with an ancient and profound aura that one could still feel the terrifying power of the Ancient Primordial Beast, the Candle Dragon.

Su Shen first placed a source stone on the altar, and then asked himself the first question.

"I want to know what to eat for lunch?"

Yes, as the most basic unit of source power storage, source stones can be used for sacrifices.

The source stone on the altar disappeared, and Su Shen didn't get any feedback.

Su Shen knew that this sacrifice had failed.

What to eat tomorrow at noon is a very simple question, but it still fails.

This means that although the Bone Scepter likes things with source energy, it does not mean that it only has source energy. It has its own pickiness about food.

So Su Shen's question was not actually asking himself what he would eat tomorrow, but what the Primal Bone Scepter liked to eat.

Judging from the answer, the source stone is a bit too clear and white.

The next moment, he put a Pure Heart Grass, which was a cultivation resource that was slightly more valuable than a source stone.

Then Su Shen continued to ask himself what he would eat tomorrow.

The answer is out.

A picture was painted over the altar of countless people sitting around a campfire, laughing, and barbecuing.

"Barbecue...... It's barbecue again, isn't there anything else?" Su Shen was a little depressed. But considering that the mountain has just been completed, many facilities have not yet been built, including the cistern, and there is really nothing to eat except for barbecue.

"So, what will I eat tomorrow night?" Su Shen continued to ask, putting a Qingxin grass on it again.

This time, I didn't get an answer.

Su Shen repeated the question, and then put a cloud fruit on it.

The value of cloud fruit is slightly lower than that of Qingxin grass, and the time for this answer to what to eat at night is obviously farther away than at noon.

The answer is out again.

It can be seen that the answer to the Bone Scepter is clearly not determined by the market price.

That's it!

Unlike those idiots of the mob clan, Su Shen was not in a hurry to get an answer at first.

The first thing he had to do was to find the law of sacrifice of the Primordial Bone Scepter, and see what the Primordial Bone Scepter liked and didn't like. The difference in market price means that there are too many loopholes to exploit, and there is always something that is not of high value but the Bone Scepter may like.

Next, Su Shen began such experiments.

After asking what he would eat tomorrow night, he asked who he would see first tomorrow morning, who he would see in the second, and who he would see in the third, and then he would ask what he would wear and what other people would wear.

Anyway, Su Shen tried his best to ask cheap questions, no matter whether the original bone scepter gave him an answer or not, he would draw a conclusion and record it in his soul crystal brain.

However, when he asked for the twentieth time, the Primordial Bone Scepter suddenly buzzed, and the aura in the room plummeted, and no matter how Su Shen asked, he couldn't get an answer.

"So you still have a temper?" Su was stunned.

The Soul Crystal Brain automatically writes down: You can only ask up to twenty times a day.

Twenty times this number of times, say not too much, say no less.

For important answers, this is absolutely sufficient.

For the cost performance of the experiment, it is a little too little.

But no matter what, Su Shen could only accept this result.

In the days that followed, Su Shen continued to test the Bone Scepter, looking for its favorite and cheapest sacrifice.

In the process of continuous sacrifice, Su Shen also summed up several new rules.

The first is that the Bone Scepter likes demon beast flesh and blood more than plants, likes elemental items more than demon beasts, and likes space-time items more than everything else.

The second is that the number of stacks will make the proto-bone scepter less likeable. For example, offering a Demon Yuan Fruit can see someone's answer three days later, but offering a hundred can't let you see the same answer for that person three hundred days later.

Three different sacrifices can be stacked, just like big money for small money, and the Bone Scepter approves of and likes this way of trading. A reasonable stacking strategy can increase the effectiveness of sacrifices.

The Four Bone Scepters have a certain affection for items with rich and colorful patterns. If you get an item, make it beautifully and sacrifice it, you may get a bonus. Note that it is possible that there is a risk that some items will be reduced in value by processing.

The difference in the content of the five predictions also determines the consumption of the original bone scepter. One of the most influential factors is the willingness of users to afford it.

To put it simply, if the Bone Scepter prophesied a conclusion that the user could accept, then the cost of the sacrifice required for that prophecy would be offset.

If the Bone Scepter prophesied a conclusion, but the user resisted it, the prophecy would be expensive to sacrifice and would most likely result in the prophecy not being predicted.

This is because the future is uncertain, and when a prophecy is prophesied, it means that it has the potential to be changed.

As a prophecy scepter, the Bone Scepter instinctively tends to predict "true", i.e., an outcome that will not be changed.

So if it's a good thing, that is, the prophet can accept the outcome that won't change, then the prophecy is low-cost, and it can be prophesied and fulfilled.

If it is an outcome that is unacceptable to the prophet, and once the prophecy appears, the user will instinctively change the outcome, then the prophecy is implied to be inaccurate, and this is against the will of the prophet. From the point of view of the Bone Scepter, as an inaccurate prophecy, I don't want to say it. If you have to know, let me "fail" once, then you have to pay an additional price.

In this respect, the Bone Scepter is a good news and not a bad news, unless it confirms that this "worry" will not be actively changed by the user.

Therefore, the main factor of a divination that does not get a result at one time may be because it takes too long, it may be because the predicted target is too powerful, it may be because there are too many key factors that affect the change, or it may be because it is a bad outcome for the user, but in the final analysis, the sacrifice is not enough.

Sacrifice is the foundation of everything.

In the experiments again and again, Su Shen gradually understood the "temper" of the original bone scepter.

The most perfect sacrifice for it is undoubtedly the Sands of Time.

The second is elemental items with special properties.

The third is the part of the demon beast's body, the most precious such as the source crystal.

The fourth is the source plant species.

The lowest is the source stone.

Just to sum up these things, Su Shen spent more than half a year, experimented more than 3,000 times, experimented with all kinds of ordinary materials and rare materials, and even threw one of the demon king-level source crystals into it, just to ask, what am I eating today, eleven years later.

It is not uncommon to sacrifice with the Demon King Source Crystal, but it is a bit unusual to ask such a simple and boring question.

However, it is impossible to draw precise conclusions without asking simple questions.

The reason why an experiment is an experiment is that you have to be willing to waste it.

Through this simple question, Su Shen confirmed that ten years is not the upper limit of the original bone scepter, but after the time exceeds ten years, the sacrifices consumed will increase additionally.

The tyrants have possessed the original bone scepter for tens of thousands of years and are not as experienced as Su Shen summed up in half a year, not only because they are stupid, but also because they lack resources, they are reluctant to waste, and they are short-sighted.

After gaining most of the valuable experience, Su Shen was about to start trying to obtain something valuable.

In the original bone hall, Su Shen first put twenty lord-level demon bones engraved with forbidden patterns on the altar, then spread a layer of deep-water black swan velvet, and finally took out a lord source crystal and put it on.

This is the best of the several forms of sacrifice that Su Shen found, and it belongs to the combined sacrifice.

But even so, Su Shen was not sure that he would be able to get the answer to the question he was going to ask next.

"I want to know how to solve the bloodless impact shaking method. ”

Yes, this is undoubtedly Su Shen's biggest concern at the moment.

As long as this problem is solved, Su Shen will be able to make all the disciples of the Wuji Sect below the Shake Light become bloodless Shake Light.

But to get the answer, you need to have the answer first. That is to say, even if there is no Primal Bone Scepter, Su Shen or others will be able to get the answer by themselves in the future, so that the Primordial Bone Scepter can give him the answer.

And this time can't be too long.

If it takes too long, like Su Shen or others to solve this problem after decades, then sorry, the Primal Bone Scepter can't give an answer.

The worst thing is that Su Shen won't even know whether there is no answer to this question, or the timeline is too long to give an answer.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, Su Shen did not ask the answer directly, but asked: Where is the idea to solve the problem.

Finding the right idea is equivalent to finding most of the answers.

At this moment, as Su Shen asked a question, light was emitted from the altar, different from the previous ordinary sacrifice, a light shone out from the original bone scepter and fell on the sacrifice, and the next moment the sacrifice began to slowly disappear.

As the sacrifice disappears, a picture begins to appear above the altar.

It was a young man walking along the mountain trail towards a stone house, and it was Su Shen himself.

The sacrifice fades slowly, so the image continues.

In the video, Su Shen walked into the stone house and pushed the door open, but it was Shi Kaihuang sitting there.

Su Shen went straight to Shi Kaihuang and sat down, and said, "The mentor came to me, I don't know what's going on?"

Shi Kaihuang replied: "I have found a way to popularize the impact of the Shaking Light Realm. ”

"Does the mentor have a way?" asked Su Shen in the video, and Su Shen in reality was also surprised.

It turned out that the method was found by his own mentor.

However, it is no wonder that Shi Kaihuang has been much more idle since he returned to the Terran realm, so he has resumed his original life in the Qianlong Courtyard, doing his own research in his spare time every day.

He was originally the one who invented the bloodless impact boiling blood method and the open yang method, and it is not surprising to invent the popularization method of impacting the light shaking realm.
