Chapter 23: The Secret Art of Sacrifice and Alchemy
Hao Feng originally wanted to use a high-grade spirit stone, so if the magic circle exploded, it would undoubtedly be even more powerful. However, among the spirit stones left by the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao", there are only two high-grade spirit stones, which is naturally unthinkable.
Because no matter what magic circle, the spirit stones used must be of the same level, otherwise the magic circle will be invalid due to the different amounts of energy transmitted.
However, even if it was a mid-level spirit stone, the energy in it was detonated at the same moment, and the space of the ethereal spirit jade exploded together, and the monks in the foundation building period would definitely not be spared. Even if the monks of the Jindan period are caught off guard, they will inevitably get discouraged, and even their lives may be in danger.
After confirming that everything was working normally in the magic circle, Hao Feng turned around and gave a deep salute to the remains of the predecessor of "Mo Chongxiao", and picked it up.
Although the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" have been sitting for hundreds of thousands of years, their corpses have not become stiff. Hao Feng gently put it into the jade coffin, tidied it up again, stared at it for a moment, bowed a few times, and then slowly closed the coffin.
When the coffin lid and the coffin were tightly sealed, the Dao runes on the coffin also instantly spread to the coffin lid, interspersed back and forth, and the jade coffin trembled again.
This process lasted for about ten minutes before the runes slowly disappeared and the jade coffin stopped shaking. But the whole coffin had completely condensed together and shrunk back to its original size. Now, even a Jindan period monk can't open it safely again unless it is damaged.
"If you can turn back to the earth in this life, you will live up to the trust and let your predecessors rest in peace. Hao Feng put the retracted jade coffin back on the shelf, bowed a few more times, and swore solemnly.
As a modern person on the earth, although Hao Feng does not value the place of refuge after death as much as the ancients, he deeply agrees with the ideas of his predecessors.
This planet, compared to the Earth, may be more wonderful and magnificent. But this green mountain is not the other green mountain, and the mountains and rivers of the foreign land are magnificent and majestic, how can they protect the soul and body of the wanderer.
After the "Mo Chongxiao" seniors entered the museum, Hao Feng was a little depressed, and he was naturally not suitable for cultivation. Sighing softly, he took out a jade slip and slowly walked towards the ground.
Except for necessity, Hao Feng doesn't like to stay underground. Over the years, he has thoroughly studied several jade slips placed on the shelves by his predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao". Needless to say, the jade slip that recorded the experience of the hundred herbs and the initial solution of alchemy was already backwards.
The remaining four or five pieces mostly recorded some of the cultivation experiences and alchemy experiences of the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" from the Qi refining period to the Jindan period.
Although the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" practiced the top-level immortal cultivation technique "Golden Cicada Decision", the stone of its mountain can attack jade. What's more, the "Nine Yuan Holy Decision" was founded by him. These experiences are naturally precious, and Hao Feng has benefited a lot.
However, Hao Feng didn't know the words used in one of the jade slips. But it shouldn't be the script of the planet, or the script that is used now.
Hao Feng can now read the words of this planet. Because he later found a notebook in the storage bag, which was a record of the experience left by the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" when they were learning the characters of this planet.
It may be a nostalgic plot, although it is just a note recorded on a secular paper, but the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" did not discard it, which is naturally of great significance to Hao Feng.
Because, in the storage bag, he sent out a large number of other jade slips. Most of these jade slips are the words of this planet. If he couldn't learn the words of this planet, Hao Feng could only stare dryly.
After such a long time, Hao Feng had already comprehended the words of this planet and understood its meaning! Although the words in this jade slip were somewhat similar to the words of this planet, it was difficult to understand the meaning.
According to the speculation of the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao", it should be the ancient writing of this planet. He didn't know exactly what it was recorded.
I just said that when I was young, I had an adventure of nine deaths, and I felt that the things recorded in it should be extraordinary, so in order to attract the attention of later generations, I put it on the outer shelf.
Although Hao Feng was a little curious in his heart, he didn't take it too seriously, he just collected the jade slip separately again, thinking that after going out, he would see if he could figure it out.
However, this should not be very likely. A senior master of Jindan Dacheng, who has never figured it out in his life, is a rookie in the immortal cultivation world, I am afraid that there is even more hope.
The jade slip he was holding in his hand was found in the same storage bag as the notebook. This jade slip records a special kind of sacrificial secret technique.
This secret technique is closely related to whether he can leave the desert island and is extremely important.
Although after the monk cultivates the Five Elements Exercises, he can use the Aerial Technique to fly in the air. However, the Sky Technique, on the one hand, has an unsatisfactory flight speed, to be honest, it is not much faster than running on the ground, and on the other hand, it consumes extremely mana, and the Qi Refining Period cultivator cannot last long at all, and it is not suitable for long-distance travel.
Therefore, when a monk in the Qi refining period traveled far away, he would either bless himself with the Light Body Technique and skim on the ground. This is easy and saves mana, making it a good way to get around.
Either that, choose a magic weapon and fly in the sky with the help of a magic weapon. Of course, ordinary magic weapons do not have flight functions, so you can only choose special flying magic weapons.
Although flying mages have a single function, most of them have little attack power. When used, the mana consumed is also greater than that of the light body technique, but the flight speed is far exceeded.
Therefore, with the help of a flying magic weapon, it is also an acceptable way for Qi refining period cultivators to travel.
Flying magic weapons are also divided into four levels: low, medium, high, and extreme. The higher the level, the faster the flight speed, and of course, the more mana is consumed.
In the middle of the Qi refining period, Hao Feng could continue to fly more than 300 kilometers with the help of a high-level flying magic weapon of the flying leaf type. Now that he has entered the late stage of the Qi Refining Period, his mana is stronger than that of the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period, and with the help of that magic weapon, it is not a problem to fly 1,800 kilometers in one breath, but the speed has not increased much, but it has lasted for a long time. If you want to cross the sea area of 20,000 or 30,000 kilometers with this, you still can't do it.
Although he can wait for his mana to run out and take medicine, or directly absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone to restore his mana. But anything can happen in the sea. What's more, the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao" also mentioned the depths of this sea area, and I don't know what is strange.
Even the Jindan period monks felt palpitations, Hao Feng naturally didn't dare to take it lightly, so he could only find a way to increase his speed, cross the sea as soon as possible, and reduce the time he spent on the sea.
It's not that he's timid, it's about minimizing the risk that can happen and then giving it a go.
"Don't be afraid to work hard and take risks, but don't do unprepared hard work and adventures. This is not only Hao Feng's, but also the basic dogma of the entire "Dragon Shadow Team", all team members.
Originally, Hao Feng wanted to wait until he cultivated to the eighth layer of the Qi refining period, and then use a superb flying cymbal flying magic weapon to leave the desert island. He'd tried the cymbal weapon before.
The best flying magic weapon is indeed extraordinary, not only is it much faster than that high-level flying magic weapon, but it also has a not weak attack power, which is not much better than the attack power of ordinary high-level attack magic weapons.
Although the mana consumed is a bit much, it is also within Hao Feng's tolerance. But later, when sorting out the relics of the predecessors of "Mo Chongxiao", he found this jade slip that recorded a special condensation of secret techniques.
This kind of condensation secret technique can actually allow the Qi refining period cultivator to exert some of the power of the spiritual weapon beyond the realm.
Spirit weapons no longer belong to the category of magic weapons, and their power far exceeds the limit of magic weapons, and there is no comparison between the two.
It is somewhere between a magic weapon and a magic weapon, and it is the exclusive weapon of the monks of the foundation building period.
And the reason why it is called a spiritual weapon is because it already has a preliminary spirituality. Although it is still far from the spirituality of the magic weapon, it is by no means comparable to the magic weapon.
Under normal circumstances, a cultivator in the Qi refining period would naturally not be able to use spiritual weapons. Naturally, there are realm reasons for this. But the main thing is the mana of the Qi refining period monk and the mana of the foundation building stage monk, and there is a fundamental difference between the two. The former is gaseous and the latter is liquid.
Gas-like mana, whether in terms of quality or quantity, cannot be compared to liquid mana, and it is not very suitable for urging spiritual weapons.
This is also the reason why the foundation building stage cultivators can easily crush the qi refining stage cultivators. The mana state of the two is not of the same grade.
However, Qi refining period cultivators are not absolutely unable to use spiritual weapons. Because the spiritual weapon only has a preliminary spirituality. It is not a magic weapon, and spirituality has reached the point where it needs to be used in order to confess the Lord. As long as the external force is strong, it can be forcibly driven.
Gas-like mana, it's just not very suitable for using spiritual weapons, but it's not that spiritual weapons can't be used. The main reason for this is that the purity and storage capacity of the cultivator's mana during the Qi refining period are simply not enough to forcibly or use the spirit weapon for a long time.
It's like a child who has to carry a guillotine to kill the enemy, and may run out of strength before he can rush to the enemy. It's not as powerful as a slingshot, or a fruit knife.
But there are no absolutes in everything, and there may be people with extraordinary talents and excellent physique, who can dance the big knife when they are very young. Of course, there must be many deficiencies, and the lethality is up for debate.
This is also the reason why Qi refining period cultivators use spiritual weapons. Naturally, there are also cultivators in the immortal cultivation world who are gifted and have excellent qualifications, and who have cultivated top-level exercises.
In the late stage of the Qi Refining Period, or during the Great Perfection, the purity and thickness of the mana in their bodies can already support the use of spiritual weapons for a period of time, and what they lack is the support of the cultivation realm.
Therefore, in the process of using magic weapons, spiritual weapons, and even magic weapons for a long time, the predecessors of the immortal cultivation world, capable people, and even magic weapons, gradually summed up a set of spiritual weapon sacrifice and alchemy secret techniques, so that the cultivators in the Qi refining period can also use spiritual weapons beyond the realm and exert some of their power.
This kind of secret technique, although it is not a secret that is not passed on, but it is difficult to obtain it if you are not a high-level monk, or if you are from a sect or a big family of cultivating immortals.
The predecessor of "Mo Chongxiao" used to be an elite disciple of the Great Sect of Cultivating Immortals, although he didn't know if he had cultivated this kind of sacrificial refining secret technique during the Qi refining period. But with his identity as a great achievement in the Jindan period back then, it was naturally effortless to get a mere sacrificial alchemy secret technique.
