Chapter 13: Spirit Crystal
This was the first time Gu Qingci had seen Lingjing.
In the four corners of the thatched hut, there are four striped stones, carved with white lines, and each striped stone emits a faint light cover, completely obscuring the scene inside the thatched hut.
The interior of the house is softly lit, but it is dark outside.
This method is very similar to the formation, in the formation, the orientation of the formation is very particular, and Gu Qingci has also learned it.
At the same time, he also placed an alert stone, which he would be alerted to if he detected someone.
Even in Baiyun Academy, he was cautious and did not dare to be careless.
There was an open black cloth bag on the bed, which was filled with inferior spirit crystals, there were thirty in total, Ning Mu had his own pride, and he didn't want to take advantage of Qing Ci's cheapness, this price was actually very high.
It also shows that his family may have a spirit crystal mine.
Thirty shiny spirit crystals amazed Gu Qingci's eyes, who wouldn't like such a beautiful thing?
The spirit crystal is about the size of a goose egg, with different shapes, squares and gardens, and slight differences in size.
Each spirit crystal has a crystal color, thirty spirit crystals, a total of several colors, red, yellow, white and blue, and even a piece of multicolor.
There are many colors of spirit crystals, one color represents one attribute, and those colors mixed together are mixed with many attributes.
It is mentioned in the book that the colorful spirit crystal spiritual power is mixed, and it is not as pure as the solid color spirit crystal, and the immortal cultivator prefers the pure color spirit crystal.
Each spirit crystal is so beautiful, like a delicate work of art, in fact, the spirit crystal is a miracle in the world, born naturally, after a long time to form, it is very difficult to obtain.
Gu Qingci picked up a crimson spirit crystal, this spirit crystal was as beautiful as agate, and there would be a faint burning sensation when touched by his hand, but it would not cause any damage to the skin, which was the characteristic of a fire attribute spirit crystal.
He felt a pure power, very large, it was a condensed aura, such a small spiritual crystal, it contained a lot of aura.
He looked closely and found that at the very core of this crimson spirit crystal, there was a mark one inch long, like a flame that was beating all the time.
Gu Qingci's eyesight is very good, and after being tempered by "Dao Yin", his eyesight has surpassed the limit of mortals, but when he looks at this mark, he only sees a blur, and he can't see it clearly at all.
In fact, even immortal cultivators with vast magical powers could not see the imprints inside the spirit crystals.
This is the biggest secret of the spirit crystal, once the aura inside the spirit crystal is absorbed, the imprint inside will weaken with the loss of aura, and when the aura is absorbed, the imprint will also dissipate.
Some people speculate that the spirit crystal was formed because of this imprint, and it is a fragment of the imprint of the Great Dao, while others believe that the imprint is just a pattern after the aura is solidified, but there is no secret at all.
The crimson fire spirit crystal, the imprint inside is like a flame, the cyan wood spirit crystal, the imprint inside is like a seed, Gu Qingci has three cyan spirit crystals, and the imprint inside, one is like a seed, the other is like grass, and one is like a flower.
These sigils correspond to the attributes of the spirit crystal.
In the end, Gu Qingci picked up the multicolored spirit crystal.
The colorful spirit crystals are more miscellaneous, because there are many kinds of spiritual power in them, and they are rare, Gu Qing looked at it and found that the imprints inside were completely blurred, and he couldn't see any clues at all.
On this night, Gu Qingci gave up his cultivation for a rare short time, and he carefully studied each spirit crystal, and he couldn't put it down.
"The plaything is demoralized, just thirty spirit crystals make it so addicted!" Gu Qingci finally put away the thirty spirit crystals, put them in the most hidden place in the thatched hut, and put three grain stones on them, completely covering up the traces of the spirit crystals, and then he was relieved to sleep and practice.
Cultivating to the third realm of "Dao Introduction", "Tattoo Dao Book" can draw triple patterns in the void, and there are also thirty spirit crystals, Gu Qingci's life seems to be moving in a good direction.
But Gu Qingci was seriously thinking about when he would leave Baiyun Academy.
Ning Mu's words completely shattered his last trace of illusion, originally, he still had a trace of luck in his heart, if he became a spirit pattern master, could he use this identity to obtain enough immortal cultivation resources, so as to ensure immortal cultivation.
Now the idea doesn't work.
As for being a formation mage or a talisman master, Gu Qingci never had this idea.
He practiced the supreme treasure of the Pattern of the Dao of the "Book of Tattoos", and his heart yearned for the ultimate of the Void Condensation Pattern, and the talisman and formation were just branches of the Pattern Dao, how could they be compared to the real Dao?
At this point, Gu Qingci has his own pride.
The tattoo is a manifestation of his Dao heart, which must be firm, must be wiped frequently, not disturbed by anything, and not stained with dust.
No matter how good Baiyun Academy is, if you can only be a handyman or a low-status spirit pattern master, then there is nothing wrong with being a casual cultivator.
Moreover, a true immortal cultivator should not be bound by the sect, the immortal cultivation world is so vast, if you don't travel a little, how can you be worthy of the ability of an immortal cultivator to fly to the sky and escape to the north sea?
Before Gu Qing left, he had a very important thing, and that was to obtain a high-grade cultivation method.
The method of cultivating immortals is a very important resource for cultivating immortals, which is monopolized by various immortal cultivation forces, the top immortal cultivation methods are mastered by the top forces, and the high-grade immortal cultivation methods are controlled by the sect family, and even the medium-grade immortal cultivation methods are mostly mastered by the immortal cultivation families.
All the resources of casual cultivation have to be seized by themselves, but in the most important item of immortal cultivation, there are only those low-grade ones in their options, because the resources are limited, so the value is inflated, and many of them are incomplete.
Even if a medium-grade immortal cultivation method finally appeared in the casual cultivation market, they still had to compete with the immortal cultivation family, under normal circumstances, how could an individual be able to compete with the family power?
Obtaining an immortal cultivation method in Baiyun Academy was a task that Gu Qingci had to complete no matter what.
Twelve years old is the best age for cultivating immortals, and before that, he has to complete the cultivation of the Dao Introduction, and master the 129,600 basic patterns in the Dao Book.
This was Gu Qing's plan before he quit cultivating immortals.
Thatched hut, "Tao Yin", "Wendian", "Wendao Book".
Gu Qingci's life was boring in two points and one line, and he spent the second spring and autumn.
He was ten years old.
Standing next to the ancient well, the well water is clear, reflecting his ten-year-old appearance, his long hair is tied up, his right side is wide-sleeved, with a trace of aura, and his appearance is harmless to humans and animals.
It's strange and familiar.
is no longer the one he remembers, and he is struggling to grow towards what he imagined.
After nearly a year of cultivation, his third realm cultivation has been completed, and he has already cultivated to the cultivation stage of the third realm, the third realm specializes in bone marrow, and the bones of his whole body are jade, in addition, the skin and flesh, meridians, and bones have been cultivated to the extreme, without a trace of flaws.
The two small realms of skin and flesh and meridians took a year, and it took nearly a year for a single bone, so it was foreseeable that the cultivation of the realm in the future would become slower and slower.
Gu Qingci had an ordinary appearance, and the few handymen who came in at the same time as him had all cultivated to the third realm, and the muscles on his body were full of strength, compared to him, Gu Qingci looked a little thin.
But if it really starts, even if those people have other martial arts, they will only be easily defeated by Gu Qingci together.
One force will drop ten.
In the hall of tattoos, Gu Qingci's five fingers have a faint layer of brilliance, which is the glow of the condensation finger, and his five fingers have all been cultivated into condensation fingers, and with one more step, he can cultivate into the advanced level of condensation fingers - condensation hand.
The five condensation fingers crossed the air, which was obviously a very ordinary posture, but there was a mysterious trajectory, condensing six lines and turning into a sixfold pattern.
The whole process takes less than half a second.
It is a blue vein, about three inches in size, and the pattern is like a meandering stream of water.
The six-fold pattern dissolved in the air, condensed into a ball of water, the light flickered, and there was suddenly a bronze mirror in front of him, the copper mirror was the size of a face plate, and it looked ordinary.
Gu Qingci looked at the bronze mirror, which did not reflect any scene of the palace, but a blue brick paved avenue appeared, and a bad old man walked on the avenue and walked towards a low hall.
What appeared in this bronze mirror was a picture hundreds of meters away, until the bad old man walked to the door of the palace of tattoos, Gu Qingci pointed out, and a wisp of qi dispersed the bronze mirror, and the bronze mirror disappeared in the air, and there was no clue to be seen.
The bad old man Zhang Lin came to the Wendian after a long time and appeared in front of him.
"Strange, what kind of wind blew you here today. Gu Qingci didn't face the slightest respect for his predecessors, and complained about this bad old man who didn't see anyone all day.
"I have come with a sacred and glorious task entrusted to you. The bad old man's face was serious, as if there was something important.
"Oh, what kind of sacred and glorious task is that?" Gu Qingci was not interested, this old man was more and more foolish, he should go to revitalize the god stick industry, instead of being buried in the outer courtyard like this.
"Gu Qingci, you don't have a trace of young people's vitality, you can't do this, I want to ...... back then"
Zhang Lin's mouth was like a river, gushing endlessly, and there was hatred in his tone, as if he had pinned some good expectations on Gu Qingci.
It's a pity that he worked very hard, and Gu Qingci was also carving the stone very carefully.
When he finished saying a large part of 'well-intentioned', Gu Qingci also carved a piece of grained stone.
The air suddenly quieted down, and Gu Qingci looked at Zhang Lin curiously: "It's over, why don't you continue to talk?"
"That's it. The old man said quietly: "Starting tomorrow, it will be a three-hall competition between our Tattoo Palace, the Fu Pavilion and the Formation Hall once every five years, and our Tattoo Hall will depend on you." ”
"What kind of competition method, can I abstain?" Gu Qingci asked.
"The common denominator of the three is the pattern, and the competition is naturally also a pattern, and it cannot be abstained. Zhang Lin said.
"It's just a tattoo, then we seem to have a good chance. Gu Qing resigned.
"But it's always the penultimate one," the old man summed up the tragic history of the past.
Gu Qingci: ......
"However, there are great rewards for winning. "The bad old man painted a big cake to tempt Gu Qingci and cheer him up, Gu Qingci looked at him suspiciously, and he didn't know what the intersection with the reward would be every time the tattoo hall at the bottom of the palace came from, where did this old man get his confidence in the mystery?
"What's the sumptuous reward?" Gu Qingci asked.
"I don't know. The old man replied very simply.
"I don't know what the reward is, so how do you know that the reward is abundant?"
"Can the reward not be abundant?" the old man was right.
This answer was very reasonable, Gu Qingci couldn't refute it, he asked again: "What is the content of the game, and who is the opponent?"
The old man shook his head slowly, and Gu Qing said angrily, "Haven't you ever competed?"
"Five years ago, I don't remember. "I can't see that this old man still has Alzheimer's.
Gu Qing couldn't cure this disease, and he didn't want to treat it.
"This year, we have made a qualitative leap in the tattoo hall, and we will have better results than before!" In the end, the old man was full of confidence and vowed to win the penultimate place.
