Chapter 141: Guiding the Maze

For drawing the complete rune onto the beast bone arrow shaft, it is still quite difficult for Chen De now.

It is not an easy task to draw complex runes on the surface of the slender and circular beast bone arrow shaft.

Chen De was engrossed in drawing the runes, but he still failed a few times before he succeeded once.

The main reason is: the surface of the beast bone arrow shaft is round, the left hand rotates the arrow shaft and the right hand to drop the pen between the cooperation, a slight dissonance, the pen will deviate, the rune will be scrapped.

However, the results of the next test gave Chen De a headache: another obstacle appeared!

When the Wind Riding Technique on the shaft of the arrow is activated, the shaft does not fly straight ahead, but obliquely.

Chen De looked at the arrow shaft flying away to the left, and laughed at himself: "After doing it for a long time, I came up with something that couldn't tell the direction." ”

Chen De wanted to figure out what the problem was, so he spent a lot of effort and drew a few arrows with success runes.

As a result, the direction of the arrow's flight was chaotic, some of them were stuck headlong on the ground, and some even flew backwards.

Arrows flying like this can't hit the target no matter what, but it's possible to accidentally injure your companions.

Chen De drew two or three talismans to seal the Wind Riding Technique, and after trying it out himself, he quickly found the reason.

When the monk uses the talisman, he has aura, and when he activates the talisman, the aura on the monk's body guides the direction of the mana output on the talisman, so he can naturally fly in the direction he wants.

There is no aura guidance on the arrow shaft, so as soon as the wind riding technique is activated, the direction of the spell is not guided, and as a result, the arrow shaft flies wildly.

Then, the key now is to let the direction of the mana of the Wind Riding Technique follow the straight direction of the arrow shaft.

But how?

If you want the arrow shaft to have an aura to guide it, can you draw a set of spirit-sealing runes on it to guide the wind riding spell?

Chen De thought of it and did it, looking for usable runes along the lines. However, looking through the "Basic Runes", there are no such runes in it.

Chen De went to the pulpit where the lama was preaching, and when the lama was explaining his doubts, he consulted the lama of the Heavenly Scar Palace, but the lamas affirmed his doubts and said: There is no such talisman dedicated to guiding mana, because the talisman has always been sealed with spells, so only the guiding talisman has never appeared.

Chen De had to think of something else.

At this time, he felt the tremendous pressure brought to him by the fifteen thousand spirit stone debts more clearly.

Originally, I was confident in creating talisman arrows, but now, it seems that the path to success has been cut off.

Most of the fifteen thousand spirit stones have been replaced with the ribs of the Yinhu Demon Cow that filled several rooms, if it can't be successful, how can this huge amount of spirit stones be paid off?

Chen De thought of this and was upset.

Chen De began to frequently visit the Classics Pavilion, consulting a large number of classics and seeking solutions.

With the help of Melan Naxiong, Chen De was able to go to the various refining rooms of the Heavenly Weapon Palace to observe how the refiners selected and engraved magic circles when refining magic weapons, in order to seek inspiration.

There was no light in sight for the time being, and he was burdened with a huge amount of spirit stone debts, which made Chen De often anxious and dry his mouth for no reason.

On this day, Chen De, who was at a loss, was melancholy and aimlessly rummaging through the objects in the storage belt. Suddenly, he noticed that in a separate compartment, there was a lone sign.

When he took it out, he recognized what it was.

Chen De's eyes lit up, there is such a good teacher, why don't you go and consult him? I can't think of a way, but with his extensive knowledge, I will definitely be able to give myself useful guidance.

Elder Tianxuan looked at Xiao Xiu with a haggard face in front of him, and was a little surprised.

He stroked his beard under his chin and asked before Chen De: "Little guy, the little Taoist priest of your age, all of you are heroic and fierce, why are you a sad look?"

Hearing the concern in Elder Tianxuan's words, Chen De sighed and said, "The junior encounters a big problem, if you can't overcome it, then the huge amount of spirit stones I already owe will not be able to be repaid. ”

After a pause, he continued, "Therefore, the younger generation came to visit the elder and asked the elder for guidance. ”

"A huge amount of spirit stones?" Elder Tianxuan was even more puzzled, how could a young monk of this age be involved in a huge amount of spirit stones?

He stroked his beard again, smiled and said, "Boy, don't worry, you come carefully, the old way will give you a pulse, think of a way." ”

Chen De talked about the origin and process of creating the talisman arrow, especially the acquisition of the Yinhu Demon Cow Ribs and the biggest difficulty at present, to Elder Tianxuan in detail.

After hearing this, Elder Tianxuan smiled lightly and said, "Haha, it turns out that a while ago, many teenagers went to the garbage mountain to look for items, and it was you who made the moths. ”

"The road to cultivating the truth pays attention to courage and perseverance. You borrowed a large amount of spirit stones, but it was secretly in line with this intention, and your current sad face is contrary to this intention. Elder Tianxuan continued: "You must first cheer up and show your indomitable momentum, the appearance of being half-dead is a big taboo in front of you!"

Elder Tianxuan's voice was not loud, but it was deafening in Chen De's ears.

His heart was shaken, and his melancholy was like a thick fog under the sun, gradually dissipating. The corners of Chen De's mouth finally showed a smile.

Chen Dexin said: Even though the elder did not point out a solution, these words have made his trip worthwhile.

Seeing the change in Chen De's expression, Elder Tianxuan praised slightly in his heart: Well, the son can be taught.

He continued, "It's a good idea to create a talisman arrow. Someone has tried it before. What do you think is the value created?"

Chen Dedao: "Cultivators of the Zhan Zhi Realm and the Cultivation Pulse Realm, if their archery skills are average, their long-range attack distance is similar to that of demon beasts of the same level, and they have no advantage. And the monk's body is not as strong as the demon beast, so when fighting with the demon beast, the low-level monk is at a disadvantage. ”

Elder Tianxuan nodded and said, "Well, yes, this old Taoist naturally knows. ”

Chen De continued: "The younger generation likes bows and arrows since childhood, and they can practice it quite well, and they can accurately shoot the target in about 100 zhang. However, when hunting beasts, the skins, scale armor, and bone armor of the demon beasts are all tough or hard to break, and the bows and arrows in the hands of the younger generations can only kill the demon beasts if they hit the eyes, nose, ears and other weakly protected parts. Our squad went out to hunt animals, and every time we hunted animals, it was quite difficult, and the other squads must have done the same. ”

Elder Tianxuan stroked his beard and looked at Chen De.

The latter continued: "Therefore, the juniors thought that if the low-level monks could have a long-range attack and kill method that could kill and injure the demon beasts of the same rank, we low-level monks would be able to gain the upper hand when we went out to hunt beasts, and it would be easier to hunt beasts, especially safer." ”

"Well, so what?" Elder Tianxuan asked knowingly.

"If there is such a talisman, it will definitely be very popular. And there are a large number of cultivators in the Zhan Zhi Realm, and they often go out to hunt beasts, so such talismans will definitely be a big seller. If the rune arrow is successfully created, it is such a rune soldier. Chen De, who had regained his self-confidence, replied.

Elder Tianxuan showed a smile that was exactly the same: "So, you borrowed money to buy a large number of Yinhu Demon Cow Ribs at that time, and you were also preparing for the next step. ”

Chen De replied honestly: "Exactly." ”

This time, Elder Tianxuan brushed his beard with one hand and said approvingly, "You have some courage and dare to take a big risk. ”

Hearing this, Chen De felt a little weak-hearted, and he didn't dare to say that it was because he was not thoughtful when he issued the task, so he became a tiger.

Elder Tianxuan put down his hand and said, "As you just said, the current difficulty is that the arrow shaft with the Wind Riding Rune is drawn in a chaotic direction of flight. ”

"Yes. Chen De replied: "The junior had planned to look for a rune from the talisman that could be used to guide the direction of mana, but he couldn't find it at all. I had also consulted many classics and watched the alchemist engrave the circle in search of a solution, but I had no clue. ”

"Talismans have always been used to seal spells, so since ancient times, there have been no runes in talismans to guide the direction of mana. After a pause, Elder Tianxuan said, "Let me think about it for a while." ”

He stroked his beard and groaned for a moment.

"In the killing formation of the formation, there are some formations, and their function is to guide the direction of mana. The killing array arranged by the formation mage will attack and kill targets inside or outside the formation, and the formation mage needs to control the direction, range, and even the strength of the attack force of the formation.

For example, some formations used for trials will adjust the size of their attack power according to the strength of the breath of the person entering the formation. And some of the patterns in the formation make the formation have such a mystery. This part of the formation plays the role of guiding and controlling mana. ”

Afraid that Chen De would not be able to understand, Elder Tianxuan deliberately said it in a more plain and understandable manner.

Chen De has studied the "Initial Solution of the Formation", but there is no similar explanation of the formation patterns in it, so Chen De is ignorant of the role of various formations.

Therefore, Chen De responded to Elder Tianxuan: "I see. ”

"You need to have a deep understanding of the formation patterns, especially the formation patterns of the killing formation. "Knowing that a junior like Chen De, in terms of formations, basically only has classics like "The Initial Solution of Formations", Elder Tianxuan's hand wiped on the storage ring, and a classic appeared in his hand, and he said to Chen De: "This classic is annotated by me, and my disciples of the Heavenly Scar Palace can only buy it with a thousand spirit stones when they reach the Tuohai Realm." ”

Hearing this, Chen De was a little confused: I can only buy it by expanding the sea realm? !

As if he understood the question in Chen De's heart, Elder Tianxuan continued: "If many things are confined to the conventional, it will be difficult to make breakthroughs, and this is especially true for cultivation. Now, you not only have the idea, but also the courage to create a new talisman, and the old way is very pleased, so the old way will try his best to help you break through. ”

He deliberately paused for a moment, stroked his beard, looked at the change in Chen De's expression, and then said: "Old man, I will make an exception today, if you want to make a breakthrough, you must refer to more formations, and try to understand the formations of various killing formations, this book "Essence of Tiantai Formation" can just make up for your shortcomings." I'll give it to you. ”
