Volume 4 Taiqingmen 553 Demon Classics
Afterwards, Liu Ming did not continue to exercise pranayama to restore mana, but slapped one hand to his waist, and couldn't wait to check the two storage talismans that he had previously snatched from the Yin Yang Giant Power Demon and the Iron Tower Great Han.
He first released his divine sense and scanned it into the golden storage talisman, and the expression on his face gradually became pleasantly surprised.
Among the storage talismans of the green-robed young man, there were more than 300 high-grade spirit stones, as well as several high-grade spirit weapons.
Although the quality of these spiritual weapons is good, it is obvious that they all need to be cultivated to maximize their magic skills, and they are not of high value to the current Liu Ming.
In addition to these, there was a black vial in the storage bag, a tattered tome, and a fragment of a glittering ancient mirror.
In the black vial, there was some ink-black liquid, Liu Ming didn't know what it was, but he vaguely felt a faint demonic qi, but it was a little different from the true demonic qi, and it was thought that it might be something needed to cultivate some kind of demonic Dao technique.
As for the fragment of the ancient mirror, it was only the size of an egg, and it was inscribed with strange white runes, which reflected a flood of crystal light from time to time, and it didn't seem to be a mortal thing.
But Liu Ming couldn't see anything except that there was a faint trace of mystical aura on it, and after putting it away, he picked up the tattered book again.
I don't know how many years there is in this book, and the cover has been slightly yellowed, and a corner is missing an inch in size, and it has been torn open from the middle, apparently only half of it.
Liu Ming gently turned a page with a thought. But I saw a dark light on the surface of the inner page, and some black and purple words were faintly fluttering. It seems to have been banned in some way.
Liu Ming looked at it carefully, but was surprised to find these strange and cumbersome words looming in the classics. It is very similar to the words that appeared on the scales of the ancient demon giant foot that he saw in the secret realm of the Demon Tower in Yuan Demon Gate Town, and he can read it at a glance.
As a result, when he wanted to take a closer look with a hint of joy on his face, suddenly a black light came from the black light, and then his ears "buzzed", and the next moment his mind was swollen and dizzy, and he almost fainted to the ground.
He was startled and immediately put the book together. Then after pinch the breath with one hand for half a cup of tea, he was a little relieved.
His thoughts raced, and it was obvious that the prohibition in this strange book was not simple, so he put it aside and opened the storage talisman of the tower man first.
As a result, the things left by this great man in the crystallization period made Liu Ming a little surprised, in addition to more than 20 high-grade spirit stones, there was only one medium-grade spiritual weapon and one high-grade spiritual weapon, which was a little inconsistent with the identity of the crystallization period.
Besides. There is also a black book, at a cursory glance, it is a book of demonic exercises, but it is very ordinary. You can cultivate from the spirit apprentice stage to the early stage of crystallization.
He shook his head slightly, then put the tome aside......
After half a cup of tea, when Liu Ming roughly counted all the loot. Then he turned his attention to the ancient magic book, and he wanted to try to break the prohibition on it.
There are many ways to break such bans. However, if it is not possible to prescribe the right medicine or use brute force to forcibly break it, it will often cause some damage to the prohibited things.
Take, for example, this shabby book. If Liu Ming forcibly instilled a large amount of mana into the classics recklessly, there was a chance that the prohibition would burst open, but this book would also be burned at the same time.
After thinking about it for a while, he planned to use some relatively safe side means to try to break the prohibition on this classic.
Liu Ming first carefully placed the book on a piece of bluestone in front of him and opened it, and then with a pinch, a black gas seeped out from between his fingers, and after a drop of condensation in the air, he flew towards the book.
However, as soon as this black qi came into contact with the prohibition on the surface of the ancient book, it was inhaled by all the black light and disappeared.
Liu Ming sighed slightly, and with a single move, a spiral of invisible sword qi shot out from his fingertips, and under his control, he slowly approached the classics, as if he wanted to try to cut the black light on the surface directly.
The next moment, a strange scene appeared.
The spiral-shaped sword qi had not yet touched the surface prohibition, but the black light on the surface suddenly flashed, and it was flicked away, shooting towards the wall on the other side of the secret room.
With a "boom", a knuckle-thick hole immediately appeared in the wall.
After more than half an hour like this, after trying several methods to no avail, Liu Ming frowned slightly and groaned.
It seems that there is a chance that this book is not something that he has the ability to open and view now, so he immediately re-included it in the Sumeru Ring, preparing to wait for the future to advance to the crystallization period, and then try to read and view this book.
......
At the same time, there is a majestic mountain range thousands of miles away from Changyangfang City.
The mountains are pitch black and stretch for thousands of miles, and from time to time there are gusts of wind blowing in the valley, sweeping up the gray sand in the sky.
This is where the Magic Sect, one of the four great Taizongs, is located.
In a cavern at the top of a towering black mountain, a one-armed middle-aged man in a gray robe was trembling against a secret room with a closed door.
"Returning to the Ancestor of the Void...... In the study, the magic book that the ancestor brought back three hundred years ago suddenly disappeared. The man's voice trembled slightly.
"Since it's gone, don't go check it out. A grim voice came from all directions from the one-armed man.
"My subordinates found out that not long ago, the philosopher who was your favorite grandfather, had entered this study once. The one-armed man paused for a moment, then said truthfully in fear.
"Rubbish!"
As a result, after a sudden anger came from the secret room, a thin wisp of yin wind floated out through the crack in the door of the secret room, and foamed into the middle-aged man's skull in a blink of an eye.
"Ancestor...... Rao ......"
Before the one-armed man could finish speaking, there was a "bang", and his head suddenly exploded. Red and white things were sprinkled all over the ground.
Then, a man's muffled voice came from the secret room.
"Zhe'er is really messing around. That half of the book was written by the ancient demons, and it was planted with a strong ban. Even if he can use secret techniques to forcibly break the ban, it is all written in real magic scripts, how can he understand it if he is not a demon person. Alternatively, when he returns, I'll take it back myself. ‘
......
At noon on the second day, in an inconspicuous shop selling puppets on the west corner of the market.
A middle-aged man in a green robe was talking to another middle-aged Taoist priest-looking person.
"Xin Daoyou, this puppet is this, you can see if you can fix it. As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out an earthy yellow bead with some cracks on the surface from the storage bag around his waist.
"Ye Daoyou's puppet seems to have been damaged a lot. The middle-aged Taoist priest took a cursory look at the beads in the man's hand. Said with a slight frown.
"Daoist friend Mingjian, I encountered a strong enemy before, and the puppet of Daozhì was somewhat damaged, and his spirituality was greatly lost. I heard that Xin Daoyou is proficient in the way of puppets, so he came to visit. The middle-aged man sighed lightly and handed the bead to the middle-aged Taoist priest.
After the middle-aged Taoist priest took the yellow bead, he carefully twisted and observed it.
After a few moments, he tossed the orb up and struck a spell at its void with one hand. The bead flashed with yellow light in the air, and instantly turned into a golden armor puppet that was a few feet high.
It's just that the gold armor on the puppet's body at this time is a little tattered, and there is an inch-sized hole in the center of the left chest and eyebrows.
"To fix this puppet...... It's not difficult, just spend a little more material. Refine, and replace it with a few more spars. We also stock these materials, but I'm afraid they won't be a small amount. The middle-aged Taoist priest pondered for a moment. So he spoke.
"As long as Xin Daoyou can restore this puppet as before, how many spirit stones are needed. Despite the opening. The middle-aged man showed a hint of joy on his face when he heard this, and said with a hand.
"The cost of restoration is about 300,000 spirit stones. In fact, if Ye Daoyou adds another 180,000, he can buy an ordinary condensate late-stage puppet again. After thinking about it, the middle-aged Taoist priest quoted a price.
"This puppet is used to using it, so I bother Daoyou to fix it. With that, the middle-aged man took out thirty high-grade spirit stones from his waist and handed them to the middle-aged Taoist priest.
The middle-aged man is Liu Ming who came here in disguise, in the previous half a day, he had visited three puppet shops respectively, and spent more than ten thousand spirit stones to repair the three lightly damaged puppets respectively, but this last one, the damage was relatively strict, so he proudly took a small risk and asked this well-known puppet master in the city to repair it.
"In this case, Daoist friends please wait here and drink some spiritual tea, and in just one to two hours, I can repair this puppet and return it to Daoyou. The middle-aged Taoist priest put away the spirit stone and said with a chuckle.
Immediately afterward, a maid came over with a cup of tea, while the middle-aged Taoist priest turned around and walked to the back of the shop.
Liu Ming immediately sat down on the wooden chair on the side of the coffee table, and after taking a light sip of spiritual tea, he closed his eyes and recuperated.
More than an hour later, the middle-aged Taoist priest returned to the hall of the shop again, dragging a faintly glowing earthy yellow bead in his hand.
"Ye Daoyou, this puppet has been repaired as before, please check one or two. The middle-aged Taoist priest said as he tossed the bead lightly.
After a flash of golden light, a golden puppet armor suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
At this time, the puppet armor soldier could not find any traces of damage left by his body, his eyes flickered, and his breath seemed to have recovered to the level of the late stage of condensation.
"Xin Daoyou is really skilled, and I have to thank Daoyou this time. Liu Ming immediately hugged his fists with joy and thanked him.
As soon as he raised his hand, he slapped the golden armor puppet a few times, and then pinched the magic trick with one hand, and then turned it into a bead and rolled it into the sleeve robe.
After Liu Ming and the middle-aged Taoist priest exchanged a few more polite words, they walked out of the puppet shop with a satisfied face.
Now that the four puppet armorers have been repaired, Liu Mingdang found a secluded corner and changed back to his own appearance, returned to the secret room of the Hundred Refining Pavilion and continued to study the art of refining.
However, what he didn't know was that not long after, the news that the Yin Yang Giant Power Demon was killed in one fell swoop by a newly arrived outer disciple of the Taiqing Sect quickly spread around Changyangfang City, which naturally caused a lot of commotion.
