Chapter 170: Machine Spirit
Su Chen sat in front of the stone pillar for a year.
Attempted to refine the Hundred Sketches.
But in the end, it failed.
He tried to use the method of refining the Wind Thunder Seal to gradually disassemble the formation runes, but compared to the Wind Thunder Seal, the grade of this hundred sketches was obviously much higher, and the formation runes contained in it were hundreds of thousands, and they were extremely complicated, Su Chen took a year, and only dismantled a very small part of the periphery, which was a dime.
If it's just slow, there's still a chance.
But with the analysis of the runes on the periphery, Su Chen found that the deeper formation inscriptions were all connected, forming a Dao blockade, as long as he tried to refine one of them, he would be attacked by other formation forces, and he couldn't bear it at all.
After all, this treasure can become a world of its own, and the prohibitions derived from it can make the Jindan powerhouse helpless.
Even if Su Chen obtained the core of the formation, it would be a fool's dream to forcibly refine it.
"No, although some formation runes have been analyzed, and the power of the formation can be borrowed slightly, but it is still too far away from controlling the hundred sketches. Not to mention taking this thing away, even if I want to close this place for a long time, I can't do it. ”
Su Chen was a little depressed.
If there was no external pressure, he could have studied it slowly, and it would take tens or hundreds of years to solve it.
But the current situation is that it is only a few years away from the next Baicao Garden event.
At that time, the special magic weapon of the Scattered Immortal Alliance could be successfully recharged, which was enough to forcibly break through the forbidden rift and let people from outside pass in.
Unless you can grasp the power of partial prohibition, you can't stop it at all.
Moreover, the people of the Qin family will definitely arrange arrangements in advance to guard at the entrance, even if they want to escape, they can't do it.
Just continue to wait, and there is a high probability that you will sit still.
"No matter how strong the magic weapon is, but it is a dead thing after all, you can definitely think of a way."
While thinking, Su Chen stood up.
At this time, he noticed the small sapling next to him, after a year of growth, the sapling grew taller again, the branches and leaves spread out, and on the tender green leaves, the vein lines clearly appeared, and when he looked closely, it seemed a little familiar.
"The diagram on this leaf seems to be somewhat similar to the formation inscription in the hundred grass diagrams. Could it be that this dryad is not a simple demon beast, but what is the connection with this hundred sketches? ”
The more Su Chen thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
After all, the Dryad grew on the Hundred Grass Map, and it was able to control the forbidden power of the Hundred Grass Garden to a certain extent before, and to some extent, it was like the guardian of the Hundred Grass Map.
"I heard that a high-level magic weapon has a certain chance of giving birth to a legendary machine spirit, and this sapling is not ......"
Su Chen had doubts in his heart.
But I can't be sure.
This level of stuff is beyond the level he can get into now, so if he wants to get more information, he has to ask for help.
Fortunately.
In his dream world, there happened to be such an extremely high realm existence.
Calculating the time, I haven't seen Begonia for a long time, and I don't know how she has been going out to explore recently.
Thinking of this, Su Chen closed his eyes and entered the dream space through the enlightenment futon.
As soon as he came in, he heard a sharp and piercing howl, Su Chen was slightly surprised, and hurriedly looked down, only to see that Begonia was flying in the air at this time, trampling a huge monster under his feet.
The monster resembled a rhinoceros and a bit like a wild boar, with an extremely long mouth, limbs that had been weakened, sharp claws on its front feet, and fins on its hind feet, allowing it to swim in dreams, dragging its huge body and tail to look like a strange fish.
"This is the legendary dream tapir?"
Su Chen was amazed.
This thing, he had heard Begonia say a long time ago, they roam in the dream world outside, specializing in preying on dreams, which is very powerful.
When Begonia was weak, she was injured by this thing and almost died.
But now after years of recovery, Begonia's divine soul strength has long been incomparable, in recent years, she has begun to try to enter the passage to explore, and has the strength to suppress and kill the dream tapir.
"Uh-huh—"
With a strange scream.
Begonia stretched out his hand, and his white and tender palm was like a guillotine, and he actually cut off the head of the dream tapir.
There was no blood spatter.
The dream tapir's body immediately dispersed into a point of starry light, and gradually collapsed, finally leaving only a finger-sized white bead, Begonia reached out to grab it, felt the fluctuations of the spiritual power in it, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Being able to easily kill the Dream Tapir, it seems that your strength has almost recovered, congratulations."
Su Chen said.
Haitang had already noticed his arrival, so he was not surprised, and turned his head back: "It's a lot of recovery, and it's not a problem to explore the passage." But the situation outside the passage is more complicated than I imagined, and my current divine soul strength is not enough. ”
"Not enough? What the hell is outside the passage? ”
"I don't know, the place where the dream tapir wanders, it seems to be a river, it's very terrifying, and there are a lot of souls in it, but I can't see clearly."
"River, soul?"
Su Chen frowned.
Although he was also curious about the world outside the passage, he knew very well that it was by no means something he could currently reach.
Besides, I still have more important problems to solve, so I don't have so much curiosity.
At this time, Haitang walked over, handed the bead he had just gotten to Su Chen, and said, "You came just in time, and I am looking for you with something." This is the soul bead in the body of the dream tapir, the same as the demon pill in the present world, but it contains pure spiritual power, I want you to try, can you take this thing out, if you can, refine a special soul pill for me, take it, it can help me quickly recover and increase the power of the soul, so that I can go to that river to explore, maybe I can retrieve my memory, and the way to go back......"
"Special Soul Pill?"
Su Chen took the bead and tried to take it out of the dream space, and when he opened his eyes again, there was indeed an extra white soul bead in his palm.
Then he returned to the Dream Tower, nodded and said, "This thing can be taken out, but the soul pill you are talking about, can there be a pill?" After all, I'm not good at alchemy, and whether I can do it or not, I may not be able to do it. ”
Su Chen didn't know what grade the other party wanted to refine the pill, if it was too difficult, he couldn't refine it.
Therefore, he can only say that he is not good at alchemy, so as not to expose his flaws.
Haitang didn't think much about it, just nodded, and handed over a Danfang prepared in advance, and by the way, there was also a package, which already contained dozens of the same soul beads.
Apparently she had hunted quite a few dream tapirs during this time.
"This kind of soul pill is not difficult, normally speaking, even a monk who has just built a foundation can cultivate, but he still needs some other materials, which can only be found in this world, which is why it bothers you. If you can help me refine the Soul Pill, I owe you a favor. ”
After listening to this, Su Chen looked at the Danfang again, the refining method is indeed not very difficult, he should be able to do it, as for the other materials needed, it is not bad, and it can be enough in the Hundred Herbs Garden.
So he nodded and said: "We've known each other for decades, and we'll see the outside world when we say this, the lock spirit array you helped me get back then, this time I should return your favor." ”
Hearing this, Haitang nodded.
Speaking of which, after this woman's strength recovered, she really became more and more cold, and most of the time she didn't smile.
Su Chen couldn't remember what she was like when she laughed.
The two chatted casually for a few more words, asking each other about the recent situation, and after getting along for years, the relationship between the two has long been more than limited to cooperation, and they are friends to some extent.
During the conversation, Haitang seemed to notice that Su Chen was a little uneasy, so he asked, "You seem to be in some trouble." ”
"It's a little bit of a hassle."
Su Chen pondered for a moment, and did not directly mention the matter of Baicao Garden, but asked, "Did Daoist friends ever know about the Immortal Court of the Qianchao?" ”
"Qianchao?"
Haitang was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: "I seem to remember a little, it seems to be an ancient dynasty in Jingzhou, which was once strong for a while, but then it has fallen." Why, did you find something left over from the Qianchao? ”
"Sort of. There is a treasure that is very powerful, and it is difficult for me to refine it after many attempts, and this treasure is very important to me, so I am a little troubled. ”
"It has been thousands of years since the fall of the Qian, and the treasures that can survive to this day are indeed extraordinary. This kind of treasure is very difficult to refine with mana, and even if it is violently surrendered, it will not be able to exert its true value. Treasures of this level, after thousands of years, are likely to have given birth to spiritual wisdom, and if they can find the machine spirit and subdue it, they may be able to control the magic weapon from there. ”
Begonia pondered.
"Machine spirits?"
Su Chen recalled the seedling outside, and he actually had doubts in his heart.
At this time, when I heard Begonia's reminder, I was a little more convinced.
At the beginning, the ancestor of the Qin family spared no cost to let people attack and kill the tree demon, forcing the other party to trigger the heavenly thunder, and then suppress it himself, probably because he knew that the tree demon was a tool spirit born from the hundred grass diagrams, so he wanted to erase it and then use violence to refine.
But he didn't know.
This machine spirit was born to the hundred sketches, and as long as the hundred sketches are still there, even if the dryad dies, it can be reborn.
This can also explain why the stump of the tree after being struck to death by the thunder can be reborn to give birth to new saplings.
"It's a good opportunity. The former dryad was wiped out by the Heavenly Tribulation, and now it has regrown, which is equivalent to a blank piece of paper, which is when the machine spirit is most vulnerable. If I start with this sapling, I may be able to get its approval, not to mention that I will take control of the Hundred Herb Garden immediately, but at least I can get some permissions. When the time comes, whether it is to close the Baicao Garden and continue to wait for hibernation, or to leave the customs in advance, you can take the initiative. ”
Come to think of it.
Su Chen stood up and said, "Thank you for reminding me." I'm going to solve the problems outside. I remembered the matter of the Soul Pill, and I will send it to you after refining it. ”
"Okay."
