Calculations

"The Spider Puppet has a magic array that can autonomously identify materials."

Lu Qingfeng obtained the puppet-making method from the Bingling World.

Among them are Spider Puppet.

Within the core rune array of the Spider Puppet, most of the arrays consist of various sensing and identification arrays.

These rune arrays allow for the searching and mining of 132 first-level materials, 71 second-level materials, 29 third-level materials, 7 fourth-level materials, 3 fifth-level materials, and 2 sixth-level materials.

This achievement is the result of countless years of accumulation and exploration by the Bingling World Hundred Crafts Sect.

It is absolutely impossible for Lu Qingfeng to create a magic array to identify all the materials in the world by himself.

"Perhaps."

"That's unnecessary."

Lu Qingfeng changed his approach.

He established the 'Azure Origin Sword Sect' to collect various rare materials and information about treasure lands like the 'Hundred Herbs Garden' for himself.

In this way.

The Nine Palaces Star Compass doesn't need to be able to identify all kinds of materials; it only needs to identify the materials that Lu Qingfeng needs.

This places more restrictions on those who hold the Nine Palaces Star Compass.

But it's convenient for Lu Qingfeng at least.

The Nine Palaces Star Compass was originally devised by Lu Qingfeng for his own cultivation; it should not be put in the wrong way.

"They can easily sell ordinary materials at the market."

"I can also buy it at the market, without having to go through the Nine Palaces Star Compass at all."

"If special circumstances require it, the task can be issued through the Nine Palaces Star Compass."

Thinking about it this way, everything became clear.

"You're wrong!"

"You're all wrong!"

Lu Qingfeng's eyes shone brightly.

Nine Palaces Star Compass!

Azure Origin Sword Sect!

Everything is done to serve him!

However, the influence of the Main God Space in the online novels of his previous life limited Lu Qingfeng's thinking.

"Even if we need to train Azure Origin Sword Sect disciples in the early stages, we can use Spirit Stone."

Disciples who wish to obtain Cultivation Method, Technique Method, elixirs, and Law Artifact artifacts from the Nine Palaces Star Compass can strive to earn Spirit Stone, then exchange the Spirit Stone for merit points, and finally redeem the aforementioned items.

Lu Qingfeng obtained Spirit Stone, which he could easily buy with materials that weren't particularly rare.

Furthermore, identifying Spirit Stone is simple, as the Spider Puppet already contains ready-made rune arrays.

"If you have valuable or unknown items and are worried about making mistakes, you can apply for authentication through the Nine Palaces Star Compass. A certain fee will be charged, which restricts the holder from arbitrarily authenticating them."

"In this way, most of the rare treasures will not escape my grasp."

The more Lu Qingfeng thought about it, the clearer his mind became.

He simply took out a blank Jade Slip and wrote down all his thoughts on it to prevent himself from forgetting them.

Then I started making modifications to the Nine Palaces Star Compass.

The main change is in the rules.

Spirit Stone and merit points can be exchanged for each other.

To limit this, Spirit Stone can only be exchanged for Minor Merit. One Spirit Stone can be exchanged for one hundred Minor Merit.

Minor Merit can only exchange for low- to mid-level Technique Method, basic and Refined Grade (incomplete) Cultivation Method, as well as elixirs and Talisman Artifact that do not meet the required grade in the Nine Palaces Star Compass.

If you want to exchange for High-Grade Spell, Refined Grade or Spirit Void Cultivation Method, or elixirs and Law Artifact, you can only exchange them with Major Merit.

Major Merit can be obtained by completing the Nine Palaces Star Compass, which is the task issued by Lu Qingfeng.

Or they could obtain them using various precious materials and rare items that Lu Qingfeng would approve of.

Examples include Purple-Gold Copper and Ironfire Ant Eggs.

These can all be exchanged for Major Merit.

One Major Merit is equivalent to one Spirit Stone. Major Merit can be exchanged for Spirit Stone, but Spirit Stone cannot be exchanged for Major Merit.

This ensures that holders of the Nine Palaces Star Compass will not only frantically earn Spirit Stone while ignoring the tasks issued by Lu Qingfeng, or neglecting to find rare materials.

In addition to the rule changes, the Nine Palaces Star Compass has also undergone some minor adjustments, mainly to align with the rule changes.

All of these things.

Lu Qingfeng spent three months at Mozishan Mountain before he completed the initial adjustment of the Nine Palaces Star Compass.

Only then did they set off, preparing to leave Chexiong Kingdom.

His journey began in the Cloud Emergence Kingdom, passing through dozens of small countries, but he headed straight for the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect.

"Most of the methods left behind by the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect in the Heavenly Shaman Realm have been lost or are incomplete."

"The art of Gu poison has many merits."

"Entering the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect might yield some rewards."

Lu Qingfeng followed the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect to the Five Directions Realm.

It was because he obtained the method of refining the Golden Silkworm Gu from the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect in the Heavenly Shaman Realm.

This is the most fundamental method of the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect, and it has also been preserved in the Heavenly Shaman Realm.

However, due to the decline of cultivation in the Heavenly Shaman Realm, the remaining method of refining the Golden Silkworm Gu only reaches the Foundation Establishment stage. In other words, Lu Qingfeng can only cultivate the 'Shell-Shedding Grand Art' to the Foundation Establishment level.

Once one reaches the Spirit Void Stage, one can no longer use the Golden Silkworm Gu to replace one's life.

Because there is no subsequent method, the Golden Silkworm Gu cannot be refined to the Spirit Void level. Its 'destiny' is insufficient, so how can it replace the life?

To obtain the subsequent methods, one must travel through the Teleportation Array to the Five Directions Realm and enter the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect headquarters.

This is the same as the Luofu Sword Sect and other immortal sects.

Even if it is the fundamental method, it is not important that the lower-level incomplete methods are circulated outside, as long as they are mastered later, it will not be a problem.

Lu Qingfeng wanted to obtain the subsequent methods.

One approach is to 'enhance' it through Evolving Method, thus completing it.

However, the method for refining the Golden Silkworm Gu is of a high grade, and completing it would require a significant amount of experience points. Lu Qingfeng currently has no intention of 'damaging his own cultivation'.

This approach is temporarily shelved.

That leaves only the option of joining the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect or obtaining it from the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect cultivator.

The latter is not easy.

Major immortal sects strictly control the transmission of their Cultivation Method. Some even require members to Heart-Demon Blood Oath, so even capturing Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect cultivator doesn't guarantee they'll be able to extract the information.

The former is the better one.

"With my current qualifications, plus my skills in alchemy and weapon crafting, joining the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect will not be difficult."

Lu Qingfeng smiled.

Sects like the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect and the Luofu Sword Sect deliberately spread their teachings outside the sect in order to recruit talented individuals from all over the world. The possibility of Lu Qingfeng being turned away is extremely small.

The Southern Province is vast.

Lu Qingfeng had been traveling for so long, and he was still quite a distance from the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect's mountain gate.

"It's not necessary to go to the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect's mountain gate."

"Joining a branch or subordinate sect established by cultivators within the sect also offers the opportunity to enter the Golden Silkworm Immortal Sect and obtain subsequent techniques."

Lu Qingfeng pondered.

The Ironwing Flying Eagle beneath their feet moved with incredible speed, traversing the air.

Suddenly.

Lu Qingfeng felt a pang of anxiety and, on a whim, decided to act.

"What happened?"

Lu Qingfeng flicked his wrist, and seven feathers appeared in his hand—

The Seven Birds Lesser Evolving Numerology!

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, the feathers turned to ashes.

Lu Qingfeng flicked his sleeves, his brows furrowing slightly. "We've been targeted!"

He pondered for a moment.

He took out the Astral Silver Sand he had obtained three months ago from his Storage Bag at his waist, his eyes gleaming with Radiance, and used the 'Grand Luo Insight' to examine it carefully.

"Really!"

Lu Qingfeng sighed.

The Zhurong Demon God poked its head out from Lu Qingfeng's body, glared angrily, and spat out Zhurong Divine Flame at Astral Silver Sand.

Not long after.

A foul-smelling black smoke rose from the Astral Silver Sand, enveloping Lu Qingfeng.

"Palm Thunder!"

Lu Qingfeng flipped his hand, Palm Thunder roared in his palm.

Sizzle!

The black smoke vanished instantly upon contact with the Yang Thunder.

"They underestimated all cultivators in the world."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

The Astral Silver Sand obtained three months ago had clearly been processed by a highly skilled cultivator using Secret Method, giving it the ability to locate and track objects, thus deceiving the 'Grand Luo Insight' from passive detection.

The Zhurong Demon God used his Zhurong Divine Flame to refine Lu Qingfeng, which then turned into black smoke, attempting to stick to him.

Fortunately, Lu Qingfeng has many tricks up his sleeve.

A palm Palm Thunder shattered it, causing it to dissipate.

"I was careless."

Lu Qingfeng was indeed careless.

If it weren't for cultivating the 'Seven Birds Lesser Evolving Numerology' and being able to foresee good and bad fortune, and making a whim to calculate it, I might have been caught up by someone without even realizing it.

If he had fully activated the 'Grand Luo Insight' to investigate when he obtained the Astral Silver Sand, instead of passively and casually glancing at it with only a trace of Divine Ability.

That way, it can be detected early.

In reality—

Lu Qingfeng pondered.

In reality, this is indeed a problem.

If someone sets their sights on the Azure Origin Sword Sect and follows the clues, wouldn't they be easily discovered?

We still need to find a solution, preferably a way to conceal the secrets of heaven and cut off all calculations and investigations.

However, this is not the time to consider these things.

"I wonder what the cultivation level of the cultivators who have come to pursue us is."

A small banner appeared in Lu Qingfeng's hand. He didn't rush to activate it and stood in the air on a flying eagle.

Tens of thousands of miles away.

The black-robed cultivator soared through the air, covering hundreds of thousands of miles in an instant.

A Black Wind howled around the black-robed cultivator, creating a sinister and terrifying atmosphere.

As Zhurong Demon God, refined the mark, Lu Qingfeng cleaved through the black smoke—

"Huh?"

"They actually found it!"

With a thought, the black-robed cultivator formed a hand seal, and a beam of black light shot out from his sleeve and vanished instantly.

Lu Qingfeng gazed at the horizon behind him.

Suddenly, a black light appeared, and a foul aura Sky-Piercing, making one's soul tremble.

"Not good!"

Lu Qingfeng had originally wanted to see what this cultivator was like.

If it were normal, then turn around and take it down.

If outmatched, the Dust-Veiling Banner allows for a safe escape.

Before the cultivator even appeared, Law Artifact arrived. The black light looked sinister and vicious; how could Lu Qingfeng dare to confront it head-on!

"This place is no place to linger!"

Before Lu Qingfeng could put the Ironwing Flying Eagle into his Spirit Beast Pouch, he directly grasped the Dust-Veiling Banner, shook it by the handle, and focused his mind on Mount Cloudglory. Suddenly, the sky was filled with light, and a Rainbow Cloud, faster than lightning, swept Lu Qingfeng away towards the southwest.

The black-robed cultivator was right in the southwest!

"Bah!"

Where Lu Qingfeng had been standing, the Ironwing Flying Eagle cried out in alarm, revealing its fear.

The next moment.

As the black light arrived, the Ironwing Flying Eagle flapped its wings to try to escape, but it could not escape the black light. It was immediately entangled and wrapped by the black light, and its whole body stiffened. It then fell headfirst down.

Thousands of feet in the sky.

It's clear they're not going to make it.

"What a vicious magical Law Artifact!"

Enveloped in Rainbow Cloud, Lu Qingfeng finally saw this scene and discerned the clues of the black light, causing a surge of anger to rise in his heart.

The Rainbow Cloud flickered.

He went to the black-robed monk's side.

"A magical Law Artifact for teleportation."

Rainbow Cloud flashed by, and the black-robed cultivator's attack missed its mark, only to see the Rainbow Cloud passing by his side.

"Where do you think you're going!"

He suddenly struck out with his palm, stirring up a fierce wind in the surrounding area.

However, the Rainbow Cloud flickered, their speed far beyond what the black-robed cultivator could perceive.

His palm strike also missed its mark.

"There's some skill involved."

"What a pity."

"If Senior Brother Zhang were here, with the Five Yin Pouch open, he might be able to capture this Law Artifact and take it down."

The black-robed cultivator stood in the air, watching the Rainbow Cloud disappear faster than lightning in an instant, and shook his head.

Call!

The black light returned from beyond the sky, and the black-robed cultivator reached out his palm to catch it.

The black light lingered in his palm; upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be black lines resembling spider silk.

I don't know what kind of Law Artifact it is.

The black-robed cultivator formed hand seals, but without the tracking mark, he could not sense Lu Qingfeng's location.

"Nine Palaces Star Compass".

He took out an item from the Storage Bag; it was the Nine Palaces Star Compass.

"There are many Miaofa in the astrological chart, but unfortunately, this time we have alerted the enemy."

The black-robed cultivator poured his True Essence into the star chart, only to find it indeed remained still. Looking in the direction where the Rainbow Cloud had disappeared, the black-robed cultivator pondered, "This person's cultivation level should not be high, but he is extremely vigilant and possesses a method of escape. I must plan carefully."

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone! Monday, please give me some free recommendation votes!
