Chapter 68: The Fifth Day, Burying the Ghost Craftsman
"I knew you were going to say no. Well, this thing can't be forced, so let's talk about what is going on here. After receiving Qin Chen's reply, the ghost craftsman no longer reluctantly, and said indifferently with a light breath, "This place was originally a cemetery where hundreds of lives were buried alive, but this place is also the place where the yin qi is at its peak. Just when I prepared all the materials and was about to start refining the body, the old man's old opponent appeared, I don't know if the old man's strength was affected by the chill of this place or the other party's strength increased greatly, in short, I ended up in a fiasco, I wanted to give up those hard-earned materials and flee alone, but what I didn't expect was that he actually reached a contract with the demon in the abyss, and directly used the power of the abyss to imprison me in place. Speaking of this, the ghost craftsman's breath became heavier and heavier, panting, gritting his teeth and squeezing out the words from between his teeth, "That bastard actually used the alchemy array that I didn't know where to imprison my soul in this skeleton, and not only that, but also twisted the skeleton that imprisoned me along with the weird alchemy array, and directly hit it hundreds of miles underground!" If it weren't for the fact that he had become a necromantic creature and could absorb these cold breaths to maintain the integrity of his soul, the old man would not have been able to stay even a quarter of an hour. ”
"Alchemy Array?Is it these murals on the walls?" When the ghost craftsman finally told him what had happened, Qin Chen finally raised his own question, this question finally got to the point, even the ghost craftsman had to overestimate Qin Chen by a few points, just as the ghost craftsman was about to say something to affirm Qin Chen's statement, Qin Chen grabbed in front of him and muttered to himself, "If I guessed correctly, then this alchemy array that imprisons your soul should be a compound magic array......"
"Wait, Duplex Array, you're talking about a Duplex Array that is reorganized from more than two alchemy arrays into one Array?!!" Before Qin Chen finished speaking, the ghost craftsman directly snatched the words over, staring at Qin Chen's eyes in disbelief and roaring, the violent soul fluctuations made Qin Chen a little unbearable, and he couldn't help but block his ears, trying to isolate the harsh sound from his ears. However, this sound formed directly by the soul does not act on the eardrum at all, but directly on the soul. In desperation, Qin Chen had no choice but to use his soul power to coat his soul with a dense protective layer, isolating this irascible and violent soul power a little.
"Wait, wait, don't shout like that, ghostsmith, I can't stand the impact of your soul! Qin Chen finally couldn't stand the ghost craftsman's fierce yelling, and hurriedly spoke to stop it, but where could the ghost craftsman who was excited hear Qin Chen's words, the extinct compound magic array appeared in front of his eyes like this, and he didn't realize that no one could accept such a blow, and the ghost craftsman was a well-known alchemy master a few decades ago, and he couldn't accept such a ridiculous fact no matter what, so the ghost craftsman shouted, " Isn't the compound array something that only exists in theory? How can it be here? This can't be possible, right, isn't it, girl? This, this can't be explained at all? You see, this black mark only represents ......."
"Didn't you stop and stop? You calm down the old lady, and I will teach you a lesson in person, and it's very cute to chirp here and be annoyed! Give me a quieter, or I'll give you another taste of the feeling of the past." Ha!"The ghost craftsman's chatter finally exhausted Qin Chen's patience, and Qin Chen, who hated chirping and grinding the most in his life, passively stimulated the scolding skills that every girl knew at this moment. Seeing the appearance of the ghost craftsman, Qin Chen no longer continued to worry about the ghost craftsman, and immediately expressed his opinions in the form of drawings. I saw Qin Chenyu pointing to the ground, stroke by stroke, and seriously drew a miniature version of all the lines on the wall with white spider silk. With Qin Chen's drawing, the ghost craftsmen who were watching from the side became more and more frightened, and the ordinary lines revealed complex alchemy knowledge under Qin Chen's description, and there were even some nodes that even the ghost craftsmen who had been immersed in the alchemy array for many years could not understand.
Soon, Qin Chen had already painted all the patterns carved on the stone wall on the ground, just this pattern depicted purely with deadly spider silk could not become a real alchemy array, the current pattern was just to allow the ghost craftsman to see more directly through the magic array that imprisoned his soul back then, and with Qin Chen's current ability, it was impossible to activate this magic array, and it was impossible to even depict it completely. "Okay, don't worry about your own research first, you can recognize one or two of the hundred nodes here, which means that your alchemy knowledge has surpassed all the current king-level alchemists, take a good look." The so-called compound circle is not a combination of fully formed alchemy arrays, but a re-expression of the strokes of the multiple alchemy circles you intend to depict with rules, and then combine these strokes according to the principle of circular cycles. The more complex the compound array, the more nodes need to be used, and each node must be circulated at least twice, and the time of each passage must be calculated clearly, if the same node passes through two energy cycles or more at the same time at the same time, it proves that this compound alchemy array has lost its effect. This is one of the reasons why your opponent is in such a hurry to destroy the compound alchemy array he has arranged. But it is precisely for this reason that you have not been able to get rid of the shackles of this skeleton and be reborn. ”
"Wait, that is to say, if you go against the current of this compound magic array, the old man will be able to get rid of this skeleton, right?" After listening carefully to Qin Chen's explanation, the ghost craftsman suddenly felt that his brain was a little insufficient, as if the alchemy knowledge he was proud of was like a small thing in front of the yellow-haired girl in front of him, and it was not enough to worry about.
"If only the compound array were so easy to crack, with your current virtue, the compound array that your opponent used against you at the beginning contained at least three alchemy arrays, and the three alchemy arrays were not of low rank. Even if you know the function of these three alchemy arrays and how to crack them, you have to slowly reorganize them and describe them, right? Well, even if you are all done, can you continue to live like this? It is better to die than to live, in my opinion, you will continue to maintain this appearance. Another point, you don't belong to this world now, because the necromantic creatures are rejected by the sub-god realm, and now you can only live away from the sun when you go out, and when you meet other demon thieves, you will be directly drained from the soul refining and lose the qualification for reincarnation, if other demon thieves have the ability to devour souls and exercise themselves, then you can only become fertilizer for others. Hearing the famous ghost craftsman say such an unrealistic fantasy, Qin Chen did not hesitate to use his knowledge to beat his fantasy worthless, out of repaying the kindness of the ghost craftsman, Qin Chen did not hide the relationship between the necromantic creature and the demon thief in detail, in this way, it is not only convenient for the ghost craftsman to understand his own situation now, but also for him to plan for his future, after all, the future is his own, and no one can decide the future of others.
"In other words, the old man is a necromantic creature? In other words, those so-called demon thieves will devour the old man's soul?
"You're thinking too much. You saved my life, and I won't be ungrateful. Besides, in the entire sub-god realm, there are only demon thieves directly appointed by the hall master of the Hall of Death when I was born, and the rest of the demon thieves are just harvesting souls and doing other dirty things that are not necessarily light. And my duty is only to banish the souls of the undead and undead creatures back to the underworld, so that you can regain the opportunity to be reborn. Of course, I can't help it if you don't want to, and I can't make it difficult for me, right? You don't want to be reborn, you have your own reasons, and I can't control this. Anyway, this time I'm just going to come down to confirm a message about the frost, and I hope that in the future, when I'm temporarily living directly above here, you can stop and don't release the frost on the ground. After a pause, Qin Chen stood up straight, patted his buttocks, turned his back to the ghost craftsman and continued, "I'm not a good person, but I will never be ungrateful, only you need me one day, huh? By the way, you can drive this alchemy array, anything can be told to me directly, as long as it is within my ability, then I am duty-bound." While speaking, Qin Chen had already drawn a simple alchemy array on the ground with spider silk, and after a slight expression, he didn't have any nostalgia, and planned to leave.
"Wait, in a state like the old man, there is nothing to do except to live half-dead in this passage, even if there is an unfulfilled wish, it will not be realized. Rather than be used as fertilizer for their strength by those demon thieves sooner or later, it is better to be in your hands, at least there is a chance to be reincarnated, right, since this is the case, then please. Looking at Qin Chen, who was about to leave, the ghost craftsman thought for a moment, and then stopped Qin Chen's plan to leave as if he had made up his mind, and said his decision.
"Ghost craftsman, may I ask if you still have any wishes at the end of your life?" Hearing the ghost craftsman's decision, Qin Chen didn't feel anything wrong, but silently opened the "Soul Eater Pupil 'Blank'" that had been closed and hidden between his eyebrows, and as the eyelids opened, an eyeball that was almost entirely white appeared in front of the ghost craftsman's eyes, and the gaze from the Soul Eater Pupil made the ghost craftsman who was a necromantic creature extremely comfortable, as if this white eyeball had an endless gravitational pull and could pull people's souls into it.
"Girl, here, there is a necklace called the Spirit Chain, which is an ornament that I made in my spare time before. This necklace is inlaid with a mysterious stone that I have not found at that time to have a specific effect, the old man sees it as an alchemy material is also very suitable, on the seal on the alchemy to summon the alchemy space of alchemy array, the size of this alchemy space, about ten cubic meters, and inside, is filled with the old man's lifelong research on the alchemy array of notes, as well as a little alchemy materials. That embarrassing note may not be in your eyes, but after all, it is the old man's hard work, so here, the old man has two reluctant invitations......" Speaking of this, the ghost craftsman looked at Qin Chen's face with some unease, and found that Qin Chen was not dissatisfied but encouraged himself to continue, and the ghost craftsman finally said what he held in his heart," One of the reluctant invitations is to hope that the girl can find an heir to inherit the mantle of the old man for me, and the other reluctant request is to defeat my old opponent for me, Luo Chen!"
"I swear in the name of the current demon thief and the name of the heavenly spider to fulfill his two dying wishes for the ghost craftsman, and if I violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. After listening to the ghost craftsman's two wishes, Qin Chen hesitated for a moment, and then directly swore an oath to fulfill the ghost craftsman's wishes. Immediately after, a pitch-black mist appeared in front of the ghost craftsman, it turned out that this was the channel between the Yin and Yang worlds opened by Qin Chen using the Soul Devouring Pupil.
The ghost craftsman looked at Qin Chen, and Qin Chen also looked at the ghost craftsman, and the two looked at each other wordlessly for a moment, and then the ghost craftsman took a step, resolutely stepped into the mist, and disappeared in front of Qin Chen's eyes little by little. When the ghost craftsman completely disappeared into the mist, the pitch-black fog quickly shrank and shrunk, and finally disappeared into the passage, without a trace, as if it had never been, but in the place where the fog disappeared, there was a complete skeleton lying there, silent.
