Early morning.

Seiun-in.

In the forest behind Jiang Chen's personal dormitory, the leaves were slowly dripping with morning dew, and the air was filled with a fresh smell.

When his gaze got closer, he saw Jiang Chen and Yu Lao, facing a thick tree trunk.

Yu Lao held the spirit pattern pen in his hand, and the white hairs on the tip of the pen lightly dotted on the thick trunk.

Snort.

A crisp sound rang out.

At the place of contact, a faint light pattern emerged, and spiritual power emanated from it.

With Yu Lao's sketches, gradually, on top of the thick trunk, a circular figure appeared, in which there was an oily green light flow, and those rays converged and connected, like a turtle shell.

"What kind of spirit pattern is this turtle shell?!" Jiang Chen, who was standing next to him and watching the excitement, didn't have a good airway.

The focused veteran Yu made the last stroke, and he outlined and perfected it heavily, looking at the spirit pattern he had drawn in front of him, as if he was appreciating a finely processed work of art.

After a few seconds, Old Man Yu glanced at Jiang Chen and said, "Don't talk nonsense if you kid doesn't have vision, this is a steel pattern!"

"With super defensive power, even the attacks of people in the Spiritual Light Realm like you will be absorbed by all of them. ”

Old Yu's deep eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Jiang Chen, and said, "You punch him and try it, feel it!"

Jiang Chen took a deep look at the steel pattern shaped like a turtle shell, and from the flowing oily green light, he seemed to be able to faintly feel that there was a terrifying defensive power coming from it.

The purpose of Yu Lao's doing this is nothing more than to see him in trouble.

So, Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile.

"Let's go straight to the next step, and you will teach me how to draw this so-called steel pattern!"

"I've studied painting before, so I have a certain foundation. ”

Jiang Chen said.

"No, I can't. ”

"Before every spirit master learns to draw spirit patterns, they must feel the power of spirit patterns from the spirit patterns drawn by their predecessors, and have that sense of amazement, so that they can calm down and learn. ”

Yu Lao clasped his hands on his chest, pointed to the painted steel pattern with his chin, and said.

These words fell on Jiang Chen's ears, and he naturally understood that today he made it clear that he wanted him to punch the steel pattern, otherwise Yu Lao might strike directly and not teach him.

Just when Jiang Chen was still hesitating, Yu Lao's voice came again, his face was full of seriousness, and he said: "Actually, you can not punch, but without that feeling, you may learn a lot more difficult." ”

Jiang Chen's gaze was slightly off, and he glanced at Yu Lao, who also looked serious when he said this, not like a joke.

"Okay. ”

Jiang Chen groaned slightly, then stepped forward and stood in front of the stout tree.

His fists were already clenched, and when he was about to punch, Jiang Chen tilted his head and said, "Can you use spiritual power?"

Old Yu shook his head and said, "It's best not to use spiritual power!"

"But you have to do your best to feel the power of it. ”

"Don't worry, it'll be fine!"

Then.

Jiang Chen's face turned cold, and he threw a punch violently, hitting the stainless steel pattern where the oily green light flowed.

Bang.

There was a dull sound.

Jiang Chen clearly felt that the steel pattern trembled slightly, and his strength was obviously dissolved and absorbed by the steel pattern.

And the deepest feeling is that his hands are swollen!

Jiang Chen picked up his swollen fist and looked at it, and then suddenly there was a snickering sound from the side, and he glanced at the old man Yu who was happy next to him, Jiang Chen realized that he had been calculated.

Obviously, all the seriousness that Yu Lao showed before was a foreshadowing of calculating Jiang Chen.

Half an hour later.

"Okay, you have also felt the power of the steel pattern, then next, I will teach you how to draw this spirit pattern. ”

Yu Lao cleared his throat, sat cross-legged on the spot, and said.

Jiang Chen glanced at Yu Lao with a faint gaze, and Yu Lao, who felt such a gaze, smiled, and said, "I will let you punch that just now, mainly to let you feel the terrifying defense of the steel pattern most intuitively." ”

"You can rest assured that you will never be allowed to pay in vain, and that feeling plays a crucial role in the later learning process. ”

These words sounded, and he didn't know whether they were true or false, Jiang Chen couldn't tell it anymore.

So, he had to sigh lightly, and he thought he was on the thief ship!

Jiang Chen stretched out his hand and wiped the ring from the left and right, and a spirit pattern pen was held in his hand, and at the tip of the pen, there was a strange purple color, which was the spirit pattern pen that was auctioned at the Duobao auction house yesterday.

"Normally, the initial learning to draw spiritual patterns requires the assistance of paper as an exercise. ”

"However, as you just said, you used to have a certain foundation in painting, so I directly raised the learning step to the second stage, object copying!"

Old Yu's gaze swept over the spirit pattern pen in Jiang Chen's hand, and he immediately flicked his beard a few times, nodded with satisfaction, and said.

"Object copying?"

Jiang Chen frowned slightly and said.

"The so-called object copying is to replace the paper needed to draw the spirit pattern with other objects, and those objects are not as easy to manipulate as paper, such as the tree trunk, the ground, the human body, etc. ”

"Alright. ”

"Then let's get started..."

Yu Lao Dao.

Under the guidance of Elder Yu, Jiang Chen injected his spiritual power into the spirit pattern pen in his hand little by little, even if he had a foundation in painting before, but when he operated the spirit pattern pen, it was a completely different feeling.

At the beginning of the pen, Jiang Chen carefully drew to the left, but the purple hairs on the tip of the pen would always unexpectedly deviate to another measure, and did not slide according to the correct trajectory.

It's hard to operate.

Under Yu Lao's several corrections, although Jiang Chen's self-feeling was much better, it was still difficult to prevent the purple hairs on the tip of the pen from changing abruptly in the trajectory.

Although he had been failing, Jiang Chen did not have the slightest thought of giving up in his heart.

From childhood to adulthood, Jiang Chuxi has set him a benchmark, and he can accept countless failures.

It was the same since he was a child, and the last thing he feared was failure.

Under the patient guidance of Yu Lao, he corrected and studied step by step, and gradually perfected the control of the spirit pen.

In this kind of learning, time passes day by day.

These days, Jiang Chen has not only learned the drawing of steel patterns and the control of spirit pattern pens.

Of course, he would also seize his free time to cultivate the Death Qi Black Seal, and these days have passed, and he has cultivated another Death Qi Black Seal.

Now the total number of Death Qi Black Seals that have been cultivated has reached two!

As for the steel pattern, in the process of learning to draw, among the countless failures, one was only the last stroke of the sketch to succeed, but because of the joy of the overwhelmed, it failed in the last step.

This morning.

Jiang Chen drew the steel pattern very seriously, and under the purple tip of the pen, the oily green light flowed and intertwined.

The shape of a turtle shell is gradually being copied.

Snort.

Jiang Chen's pitch-black pupils stared firmly at the slowly scribbling purple hairs in front of him, and his spiritual power bloomed from them little by little, making a sneering sound, but he was still engrossed.

The spirit pattern pen in his hand swiped to the left, and then retracted it fiercely.

Bite.

The oily green light in front of him, which was like a turtle shell, suddenly burst out with even more blazing brightness, reflecting on Jiang Chen's swarthy pupils.

Seeing this, he was slightly stunned, and then came back to his senses and said, "It's successful!"

"I've finally succeeded!"

Pushing the old man Yu who was already asleep next to him, Jiang Chen's handsome face slowly bloomed into a stiff smile and said.

I have to say that in the past few days of learning to draw stainless steel patterns, Jiang Chen has been polished a lot in his mind, giving people an illusion of maturity and stability.

Yu Lao stretched his waist before he fixed his eyes on the stainless steel pattern drawn by Jiang Chen.

At this moment, his deep pupils couldn't help but shrink fiercely.

"This kid..."

"It's better than blue!"

"Although the steel pattern can only be regarded as a basic spirit pattern, any seal spirit master can draw it, but among all the steel patterns drawn by the spirit master, the steel pattern drawn by this kid is also worthy of being called a fine product!"

"From the point of view of time, it only took more than ten days to successfully draw this steel pattern, which is really less than the time I spent back then. ”

"What a descendant of the master!"

Yu Lao's thoughts rolled in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but slowly lift a touch of relief, and said secretly.

"How's that, awesome?"

Jiang Chen looked at Yu Lao and said, "I have carefully recalled these days, the feeling of you asking me to hit the fine steel pattern with my bare hands that day also has a certain gain from it, otherwise I would not have succeeded so quickly." ”

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, the smile on his face became sunny and bright, and said, "Actually, what I want to say is that ten days later will be the final exam. ”

"And I've learned this steel pattern, what other powerful basic spirit pattern professor do you have for me?!"

"When the time comes, I will reveal the identity of the spirit master, so that I can give you a long face!"

Yu Lao shook his head with a smile and said, "If you are greedy, you can't chew it..."

......

days.

Liu Li sat in the room drinking tea, looking leisurely.

After a while, a man in black walked in and saluted Liu Li slightly, which was to report: "Chief Wen's cultivation status has been very good recently, and it is going well. ”

"If his cultivation state continues, before the final exam, he will definitely complete the spiritual canon that you handed over. ”

When Liu Li heard this, the corners of his mouth lifted a trace of satisfaction.

Then, glancing at the man in black, Liu Li asked, "Is there any news about Jiang Chen's recent days?"

The man in black frowned slightly, and then said, "Jiang Chen's haunts in Qingyun Academy during this period of time are almost inseparable from the dean. ”

"Old Yu..."Liu Li took a sip of tea and said lightly.

"That's right, in the past few days, Jiang Chen and Elder Yu have gone to the direction of Jiang Chen's personal dormitory every morning, and then they will occasionally go to the dean's office, as for what they have done, there is no way to know. The man in black shook his head and said.

Jiang Chen's personal dormitory is a forbidden place in the whole Qingyun Academy, backed by green mountains, and the field of vision is not wide, so no one will go there at all.

This is also the reason why Jiang Chen chose to learn to draw spirit patterns there.

As for the dean's office, Jiang Chen was of course under the supervision of Elder Yu, cultivating the Black Seal of Death Qi.

Originally, on the side of Jiang Chen's personal dormitory, he could also cultivate the Death Qi Black Seal, but in the end, under Jiang Chen's strong request, the location where he cultivated the Death Qi Black Seal was still fixed in the dean's room where he had cultivated before.

Liu Li put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at the man in black, and said, "Okay, you can retreat first!"

After the man in black retreated, a slight chill emerged from Liu Li's slightly narrowed pupils.

"Jiang Chen, even if Elder Yu helps you cultivate this month, it is impossible for you to narrow the gap between you and Wen Wei. ”

"And the day when your final exam begins, it's not far away. ”

"So, you'd better wash your neck as soon as possible and prepare to die..."
