Chapter 525: The 'Cloud' Over the Heavenly Plains
Xiaomei, the clerk of the Treasure Pavilion, came to the top floor of the Treasure Pavilion with a solemn face after settling down with Su Li...... This is the highest man-made structure in the Near Heavens, and it's also the favorite place for the actual controllers of I-Mab City, as it looks closer to the sky than everyone else.
This is not something that ordinary clerks are qualified to climb up, and even many middle managers are not qualified to climb up...... It's just that Xiaomei not only has a smooth road, but also respectfully greets someone along the road when she sees it.
It wasn't until she came to the innermost room on the top floor of this treasure pavilion that she saw an old man who looked old but was actually full of vitality in her body and said in a lively tone: "Grandpa, I received a person who looks very special today, and I think I can invest more in him." ”
When the old man heard this, he just smiled kindly and asked, "What is that person's appearance, what is his character, and how old is he?"
Xiaomei immediately said in disbelief: "It has nothing to do with these!"
When the old man heard this, he said: "It seems that my little sister has taken a fancy to this person who has a good skin, and is very good at coaxing girls, and the most important thing is that he still looks very young." ”
Xiaomei hurriedly said angrily: "Grandpa, I'm going to be really angry if you talk like this again!"
The old man smiled and said, "Okay, just now Grandpa almost thought that the youngest girl of my Yun family was going to 'invest' herself." ”
"I don't know what kind of curse I've fallen into the Tianyuan Yun family, your generation is actually all girls, not to mention, one by one, I still feel that my vision is too good to invest in 'potential stocks', and as a result, I have invested myself in other people's families...... Pity my Yun family, now there is only one seedling left in this Heavenly Realm City. ”
The Heavenly Yuan Yun family is the actual controller of this Heavenly Realm City. And this Xiaomei is also the daughter of the Yun family!
When Xiaomei heard this, she couldn't help but defend her sisters: "But those brothers-in-law, didn't they also let us open branches in the Nine Great Cities and settle down?
The old man didn't get angry when he heard this, but said happily: "Those Treasure Pavilion say that they are branches of my Heavenly Realm City Treasure Pavilion, but in fact, they can be regarded as your sister's dowry, and it is estimated that in the end, they will have to be surnamed someone else's family, so they can't be taken seriously." ”
"If you run away with someone else, I'm afraid Grandpa will have to worry about you children coming back and fighting for the family property in this Heavenly Realm City together......"
Xiaomei really felt helpless about her grandfather when she heard it, can you not always lead the topic in that direction?
She knocked her head in distress, and then said, "Grandpa, I'm talking to you about business...... Okay, okay, I promised that I would never marry in the future, this should be okay, right?"
The old man happily stroked Xiaomei's head, but the expression on his face was a 'I'll believe it, let's talk about it when the time comes'.
He didn't tease his granddaughter again, but asked, "How is the talented person you fancy this time?" and take him to the 'ruined house' to 'see' the bloody slaughter of the magic knife...... It looks like he's doing a good job for you. ”
Xiaomei's expression immediately became strange, she always felt that her grandfather had something to say.
Seeing this, the old man knew what she was struggling with, so he spit out directly: "I don't know whether to say that you really deserve to be sisters or whether to say that the magic knife should actually be called the 'marriage knife'." ”
"You sisters all use it as a prop to test others, and when you see someone who is doing better, you can't wait to 'invest more'. As a result, now they have all thrown themselves in, and then pity my old man who is lonely, and only you are a lone seedling to accompany ......"
Xiao Meila grimaced and waited for the old man to finish before she said, "Grandpa, I've heard you say that last sentence many times! And those brothers-in-law who have passed the 'test' of the magic knife have actually proved to be very good." ”
Then she restrained her expression and said seriously: "Grandpa, this person I met this time is really different, not only can he touch the magic knife without wearing the 'Heart Guardian Jade Talisman', but he can also directly seal it!"
The old man listened to it for a while, and then asked, "So, our 'treasure of the town store' was sold by you like this?"
Xiaomei was really helpless about her grandfather's jumping thoughts, and then said: "Yes, but I just abide by the rules of the 'waste house'." ”
The old man didn't say anything when he heard this, just nodded and said, "Then this is indeed a great powerhouse, tell me what he else chose." ”
Xiaomei retracted her expression and said, "He didn't make another choice, but it was a very extraordinary flower demon who followed him who chose the abandoned brocade box and a broken rune puppet." ”
—————
"Listen to that, the flower demon can re-refine the star gold in that brocade box, and the guest can learn a series of ancient talismans from the rune puppet before the great destruction. ”
The old man's expression suddenly became cautious, he pondered for a moment and asked, "You recall carefully, who is the dominant person between the flower demon and the guest?"
Xiaomei felt very strange about this question, and then recalled it for a while and said affirmatively: "Although the flower demon seems to be very knowledgeable, there is no doubt that the guest is the real leader...... The flower demon lady cared about any of his thoughts. ”
The old man sighed when he heard this: "I didn't expect that there is such a lucky person in the world who can be favored by the power." ”
He sighed, and then said to his little granddaughter: "The old man has agreed to this investment, but there is one thing I want to warn you...... You have to keep your distance from that person, you can't trap yourself like your sisters do, and just maintain a good collaborator attitude. ”
Xiaomei looked at her grandfather speechlessly, thinking that the old man was joking with her again.
She said, "Don't worry, I know how to measure." ”
"Since my grandfather agreed to my suggestion, then I want to use all the books in our Treasure Pavilion as capital to cooperate with each other for the first time. ”
"Oh?" the old man wondered.
Xiaomei said with a gleam of wisdom in her eyes: "If I am not mistaken, this guest should be the holder of this 'Great Yan Learning Order'...... Isn't it worth the investment?"
The old man couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, and then bowed his head slightly and said, "Then you can do it according to your own heart." ”
......
In the quiet room of the Treasure Pavilion, Su Li is using his mana to inspire the Doom Talisman to dissolve the infinite grievances on the magic knife, thus trying to explore its original appearance.
One by one, the souls trapped in this magic knife were transcended, and then in the process of 'ascending to heaven', they showed a grateful look to Su Li.
But Su Li ignored it, if you want to go, hurry up, don't crowd here to get in the way......
He was concentrating on cleaning up the souls hidden in the magic knife with the doom talisman, and he already felt some of the original power of this knife......
This is indeed a magic knife capable of devouring the souls of people, and the more souls stored in the blade, the stronger it becomes.
But there is an upper limit to this reserve, and that upper limit is about 1,000 revenants.
Exceeding this amount, the resentment will spread out and cause damage to the bearer in turn.
And the real use of this magic knife should be to kill the strong with it...... Using the soul of a strong person to enhance the sword spirit is definitely stronger than gathering the souls of countless ordinary people.
Su Li found that there were actually only a few dozen souls of the strong that he thought were passable contained in this knife, which was too far and too far away.
The redundant is a burden for him, and it is better to remove it directly.
And these unjust souls themselves are not the souls of sinners, and they can't be eaten as dog food for meat sausages, so they can only be saved.
...... This magic knife's resentment condensed, and under normal circumstances, even a high-ranking monk could hardly guarantee that he would not be affected by this resentment.
True Buddhas may be able to do it, but True Buddhas are so rare, and the number is far less than that of True Immortals.
So speaking of which, the person who can transform this magic knife seems to be Su Li?
And when he was working hard, Haitang watched the round of merit light wheel behind his head gradually dyed with a colorful halo from the original moon white...... This is the result of human merit, that is, the blessing of the will of all beings.
To be honest, with such a strong humane merit, even if there is no priesthood and divine position given by Tsubaki at the beginning, it is estimated that becoming a god and a Buddha is between Su Li's thoughts.
Begonia smiled a little stupidly, she felt lucky...... originally thought that this time he was robbed in the mortal world, and in order to repay the cause and effect, he had to go through a parting of life and death.
But I didn't expect the person who saved her to be so extraordinary, maybe this is an eternal song?
Su Li didn't care about Begonia's appearance, he just felt a little bored after a period of time, so he simply generated a doom sigil in his palm and started the 'soulless' operation.
At the same time, he was distracted, and he began to study the broken puppet......
It was a dark green puppet, and its shell was so badly damaged that only half of its body remained.
But he saw some traces of runes in the broken cracks. It's just that the puppet is so badly damaged that he can't even restore these runes.
It's no wonder that it will lie in the 'ruined house' of the Treasure Pavilion and accumulate dust, and it really has no effect except for knowing that there was such a method of refining rune puppets in ancient times.
But this is for ordinary people...... Haitang deliberately selected this broken puppet for Su Li, believing that he had this talent to be inspired.
Sure enough, Su Li looked at this puppet and thought about it...... He found this really interesting, because he found that these broken runes were actually vaguely formed into a rune array to drive them.
He also understood that he had studied the formation for a period of time in order to explore the truth of the rune formation for himself. Now it looks like he'll need to go a little further.
He didn't arrogantly think that he would be able to restore an ancient lost skill now, just how to keep this rune mark for a long time, what kind of energy to drive it, and what kind of material should be used to carry the rune...... This series of questions requires him to spend a lot of energy exploring.
