Researching a Magic Array for Refining Soul Gold Beads, Part 1
The Great Shaman glanced at Fengyun and sighed inwardly, "Refining the Soul Gold Bead is not so easy!"
However, he dared not complain at all on the surface. Instead, he respectfully reported the progress of refining the Soul Gold Bead without any falsehood.
The reason for this is that Fengyun himself has already done a lot of research on this. Although he is not very skilled at refining the Soul Gold Bead and his craftsmanship is rough, he understands the ins and outs of refining the Soul Gold Bead.
If he dares to make things up, Fengyun will surely see through it.
At the same time, he was also very puzzled. With Fengyun's formidable strength, and since he was following the path of cultivation based on the Death Rule, why was he so unfamiliar with the crafting of the Soul Gold Bead?
Although different people may have different understandings of the rules, and some practitioners of the Death Rule may specialize in studying the types of physical attacks, the Death Rule are ultimately a means of manipulating the soul.
It's one thing if you haven't researched how to make the Soul Gold Bead, but since you've started researching them, you shouldn't be so useless.
From the Great Shaman's report, Fengyun sensed a hint of disdain in the Great Shaman's tone, but he didn't care.
Because he is truly not good at the Death Rule, although he can absorb the Death Divine Power and comprehend the Death Rule by controlling the energy of the Light-Shadow Orb.
But his comprehension speed was like that of a tortoise, making him instantly realize that he had no talent whatsoever in the Death Rule.
The fact that he has achieved something in creating the Soul Gold Bead is purely due to the magic circle. It's good enough that it's effective; he won't ask for more.
In particular, he has placed all his hopes on the magic circle for the creation of the Soul Gold Bead!
There's no way around it; everyone has their own expertise. Even a powerful figure like Beirut in the original story couldn't transcend the laws to unleash the exclusive techniques of the Death Rule Domain. How could he possibly have confidence in himself?
Especially after experiencing the difficulty of comprehending the Death Rule, he had no hope of refining the Soul Gold Bead on his own, and instead became even more convinced of the omnipotence of the magic circle.
I have been trying to use magic circles to "explain" the Great Shaman's insights into the refining of the Soul Gold Bead, hoping to complete the entire process from Soul Essence to Soul Gold Bead using magic circles.
Once he has accomplished this, all he needs to do is capture enough God-level Expert who cultivate the Death Rule, and have them condense Divine Crystal or directly infuse divine power into the magic array to power it.
Simple, practical, and easy to use!
If successful, replicating the magic circle a hundred times would be equivalent to having a hundred Great Shaman serving him.
Even if the methods used to control the Great Shaman's soul were to be broken, allowing him to continue wandering outside and secretly follow him to see if he could find the weak connection between the Gobada Plane Prison and the Yulan Plane, it would be perfectly fine.
Well, although it can't be confirmed, Fengyun thinks that the Great Shaman he captured is probably the same Great Shaman from the original story.
After all, not all Deity Level who cultivate the Death Rule can refine the Soul Gold Bead; those who can do this among Lower God are true geniuses.
The more Deity Level Fengyun encountered in the Plane Prison, the more certain he became of this point; otherwise, he wouldn't only have the Great Shaman as the "Soul Gold Bead Refining Machine" in his possession.
Moreover, the Great Shaman's weapon is also a scythe, and he has several Silver Robe Saint Realm under his command who serve as puppets and bait. Although the title of Great Shaman was given to him by Fengyun because of a sense of déjà vu, Fengyun would never believe that he was not the Great Shaman in the original work.
However, the Soul Gold Bead, a treasure that enhances and restores the soul, is extremely precious. Moreover, according to the original work, the Great Shaman and the others only appeared in the final stage of their exploration of the Graveyard of Gods at the Saint Realm level.
There was no rush, so Fengyun directly enslaved it and used it to refine the Soul Gold Bead for himself.
The Great Shaman, who had been dragged along by Fengyun to perfect the magic circle for quite some time, complained in frustration, "Master, our progress in refining the Soul Gold Bead is already quite good. Why do you insist on wasting Soul Essence to research methods of refining Soul Gold Bead using magic circles?"
"Can't we just take things slowly?"
Although the Great Shaman was enslaved by Fengyun's methods, Fengyun did not enslave him using methods such as the Soul Seed in the Death Rule, but rather used methods he developed while researching the Soul Contract Magic Array.
It was enslavement, but more accurately, it was leaving a means of control in the soul of the Great Shaman, who could decide life and death with a single thought.
While this method isn't as comprehensive as the Soul Seed, it's the maximum that Fengyun can accept.
After all, it involves the soul, and the one being enslaved is a Great Shaman who is skilled in soul manipulation. He didn't want any accidents to happen.
Even just to be on the safe side, when he developed the Beast Taming Contract, he didn't break off the Soul Contract with Little Nine and Pangpang and replace it with a Beast Taming Contract. To this day, it's still the most primitive Master-Servant Contract.
Therefore, it's normal for Great Shaman to retain his complete personality and to complain.
Fengyun shook his head and said, "It's not that I think you're not fast enough. The reason I want to try to replicate the refining effect of the Soul Gold Bead with a magic array is mainly to see if I can find a way to simplify the magic array after the replication is successful, so that I can make the Soul Gold Bead better and simpler from the perspective of array."
"If you can do that, I believe it will also greatly benefit your understanding of the Death Rule."
Fengyun has always used formations to comprehend the laws of nature.
Having spent so much time together, the Great Shaman had gained a certain understanding of Fengyun. He knew that Fengyun was very fond of magic circles and possessed remarkable talent in them.
Although he wasn't particularly enthusiastic about it, he felt it would be a good thing if it worked out. Studying the magic array set up by Fengyun would indeed benefit his understanding of the Death Rule.
Then Fengyun continued, "Besides, you are ultimately just one person. No matter how efficient you are, there is a limit."
"But if I successfully perfect this magic circle, I can set up dozens or even hundreds of them in no time. Even if a single magic circle is not as efficient as yours in refining Soul Gold Bead, the sheer number of them will be unmatched by you alone!"
"Why not do something that can significantly improve our efficiency in acquiring resources?"
Upon hearing this, the Great Shaman chuckled a few times, said no more, and continued to obediently process the Soul Essence to work with Fengyun to refine the magic array for crafting the Soul Gold Bead.
The people in the Plane Prison are very pragmatic; if you have no use to them, you won't get protection.
Although Fengyun forcibly captured him and demanded that he refine the Soul Gold Bead, this period was also the most peaceful time he had ever lived. Unlike before, when he was constantly on edge and worried that he might accidentally become someone else's prey.
