After the elves left, the dark forest, which was originally very lively, quieted down again, and Zhou Bufan was not in a hurry to track down the group of dwarves, anyway, it was impossible to kill that Smaug for a while.

And I doubt that this group of dwarves can still enter the former dwarven kingdom smoothly, because it seems to be a little too late at this time, there is no moonlight guide at a specific time, and even if there is a key, it is difficult to find the corresponding keyhole.

Another plot change is that the hobbit doesn't seem to have gotten the Ring, because he's been carefully examining each other with his senses.

Of course, this matter is not certain, maybe the magic ring has the ability to hide from his divine sense, no matter how to say that the spiritual power of the ring spirit is extremely high, it may be a few points higher than himself.

Seeing that Xiaobai was busy refining the materials, and Bion had already started preparing dinner, although this big guy was not good at cooking, but it was no problem to barbecue some food and meat, and cook a pot of soup with dehydrated vegetables.

The moose also went to the neighborhood to find food on their own, so Zhou Bufan was idle, so he also joined in the extremely troublesome loot collection.

Xiao Bai refines with fire, and the speed is very fast, but he can only extract relevant materials from the body of a monster at a time, and it also consumes quite the true qi in the body.

And Zhou Bufan used lightning to extract the trace substances in the bodies of those monsters, mainly because after a lot of in-depth research on the basic substances, he found that those trace substances can be pulled out by high-voltage current, so the efficiency is also very high.

What's even more powerful is that it can release several flying needles with wires at the same time, and the efficiency is even more than double that of Xiaobai's extraction method.

And because the bracelet is also inlaid with an electric magic stone with infinite energy, Zhou Bufan's extraction of materials is much easier and simpler than Xiaobai.

It didn't take long for Xiaobai to temporarily stop refining because he consumed too much true qi, and he didn't bother to move when he was lying on the blanket, but Zhou Bufan, who saw this scene, suddenly thought of a special device.

It is to use the rune formation to build a special equipment that can store true qi, which is equivalent to creating a large dantian qi sea outside the body.

Judging from the rune knowledge that I have so far, it seems that it is not difficult to do this, and electromagnetism and even light can be stored, and it doesn't make sense that true qi can't do it.

You can use the rune array to create a device with a large capacity of true qi, which can be worn on the body at ordinary times, and can slowly draw out the surplus true qi in the body and store it, and can be called out when you need to use it, just like calling the energy of the electric magic stone yourself.

True Qi is a bit similar to physical strength, it can be automatically recovered when it is used up, if it is not used, it is a bit of a waste, if you make a large extracorporeal Qi storage equipment, but you can continue to replenish your true qi by wearing it on your body every day.

As long as the device is large enough, it is also possible for a Qi practitioner of the third layer of Qi cultivation to directly store the true qi energy value of the twelfth layer of Qi training.

Of course, even if the true qi of the twelfth layer of Qi cultivation cultivators is saved, if it is really against the twelfth layer of Qi training, it will definitely be killed in seconds, but when it is usually used, it is too convenient to have so many True Qi Village quilts.

The only difference between stored true qi and other energies is that other energies can be used universally after being stored, and this true qi may only be used by oneself after storage, and it is difficult for others to use it.

Because the true qi contains a person's essence and spirit, others can forcibly extract and call it, and perhaps the amount of true qi that needs to be paid when calling may be less than the value of the true qi that is called......

"Zhou Bufan has eaten." Xiaobai's voice came from the sea of knowledge, only to find that Bion's dinner had been prepared, and the amount of exercise today was a bit large, but he was actually hungry for a long time.

"Here we are." In response, he casually retrieved a few flying needles with wires, temporarily ending the material extraction.

……

After eating a full-stomach dinner, Bion and Moose each took a spirit fruit, in order to completely suppress the slightest benefit in the spirit fruit, Xiao Bai personally instructed them to exercise.

However, Zhou Bufan continued to extract trace substances from those monsters with extremely high efficiency.

It took more than an hour to finally dispose of all the monster corpses, and the harvested materials were about 39 grams, plus the loot harvested along the way was already 57 grams.

It was still early to see that it was still early, and then a series of synthesis and refining were carried out on these, and it took several hours, until after most of the night, finally succeeded in refining nearly 20 grams of high-grade formation materials.

"Zhou Bufan, we have so many materials, can we create a few artificial magic stones?"

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

"Waiting for you."

"Go to sleep, you've consumed a bit of energy today, you have to rest well."

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"The current artificial magic stone cannot continue to increase the power of spells."

"Why can't we keep increasing?"

"It's like drinking water from a cup, even if you change it to a big cup, you can't drink it as fast as you can."

"Then why can you increase the power of so much magic?"

"It turns out that you don't have a cup, and when you want to drink, you use your little paws to scoop water and drink."

"What a metaphor, how can I drink water with my paws."

"Well, this analogy is not appropriate, anyway, the magic gem increases the magic power, only one can work, and you can't wear a few to amplify the magic power several times."

"It's a pity, it's a pity."

"There's nothing to be sorry for, when I improve the rune technology and rebuild a larger and more complete magic amplification array, I can also create an artificial magic stone with an even greater amplification."

"Really?"

"When did I lie to you?"

"Then you won't have time to practice weight loss techniques with me in the future."

"You still have to practice the light body technique, a combination of work and rest, but now that the night is dark, go to sleep."

“…… Are you still preparing for the vigil? ”

"The formation has been arranged, so there is no need for a vigil, but I still have to analyze the feasibility of a technique."

"What technology?"

"I'll tell you tomorrow."

"No, you don't say I can't sleep."

"Forget it, I'll sleep too." As he spoke, he threw out nine spirit jade talismans and superimposed a layer of protective array, and then went directly into the small tent and hugged Xiaobai to sleep, this time Xiaobai seemed very quiet, and soon fell asleep.

……

Not long after Zhou Bufan fell asleep, a dark shadow appeared in the distance, approaching silently, and was not detected by the peripheral electronic devices and rune card arrays.

However, when approaching the tent, there was a trace of energy similar to soul consciousness stored on the nine spirit runes, but it was the existence of the black shadow that was successfully sensed.

In an instant, the golden light of the debut Dao bloomed, and the nine-character mantra sounded faintly, and the set of simulated soul devouring array card formations on the periphery was also borrowed by the power of the nine-character mantra, forming a large-scale imprisoned devouring energy field......

Sauron, who was roaring, was directly beaten into a hornet's nest by the golden light shot from the nine spirit runes, and even swallowed up part of the energy by the soul devouring array.

However, in the end, Sauron, with his tenacious will, successfully broke through the spatial confinement field formed by the double superposition of the Nine-Character Mantra Mantra Soul Devouring Array, and then turned into a black shadow and disappeared.

In fact, at the moment when the spirit rune was activated, Zhou Bufan had already woken up, but he was still thinking about the strategy in his head, but the other party had already fled, and he had no chance to make a move.
