Cola Novels, turn to the next page, it is another world.
After walking for a long time, the outline of Mine appeared in front.
The earth wall is still the earth wall, the wooden shed is still the same wooden shed, and the three Mine Cave holes are dark.
But there are a few more things on the periphery of Mine.
Several gaps in the earthen wall were rebuilt. Although they still used gravel and yellow mud, they were much stronger than before.
Several new stone piles were erected outside the earthen wall on the west side, with Spirit Pattern vaguely engraved on them.
Detection Array has been expanded.
When Li Yuan approached, someone had already stood up at the guard position.
Not Sun Liang, nor Steward Liu.
He is a young monk in his early twenties, with a fair face and short stature. He is wearing a semi-old gray-blue short robe. The aura of Qi Refining, Fourth Layer.
Li Yuan glanced at him twice and felt that he looked familiar.
He Family people.
I met him once or twice when I was stationed at the He Family headquarters.
It seems that He Qing's subordinate is in charge of patrolling. I can't remember his name.
The young monk also recognized Li Yuan and raised his hand first.
"Young Daoist Li."
Li Yuan nodded and walked straight into Mine without asking any questions.
Under the wooden shed, Steward Liu was squatting on the ground and whittling a wooden stick with Short Sword. He raised his head when he heard footsteps.
"Back?"
"Hmm." Li Yuan sat down on the stone pier opposite.
He raised his chin in the direction of the duty station.
"Why are He Family people here?"
Steward Liu Peel the burrs off the wooden stick and set it aside.
"What happens after you leave."
He patted the sawdust on his hands.
"A few days after you left, two more people were sent to fill the vacancy. One is Qi Refining, Fourth Layer, and the other is Qi Refining Third Level. Plus me, Lao Zhou and Sun Liang, Mine, there are five people in total."
He stretched out a hand and counted.
"It didn't stop for a few days, but something happened again."
"What's the matter?"
"The monks attacked." Steward Liu's tone became darker. "Seven or eight people came here at night and rushed directly to Mine Cave. Detection Array Although they rang, they came too fast. By the time we reacted, they had already rushed into the earthen wall."
"There was a fight. The new Qi Refining Third Level didn't block it and was hit in the chest by a Wind Blade. He died on the spot."
Steward Liu drew on the ground with his finger.
"The rest of the people were injured, but their lives were saved. The other party didn't take advantage and ran away."
Li Yuan didn't answer, waiting for him to continue.
"Later, the superiors sent people to deal with the aftermath, and by the way, people from the He Family were also arranged to come over."
Steward Liu raised his chin towards the new stone piles outside.
"That boy's name is He Ming, He Family, and he knows a lot about Array. The higher ups asked him to come over and reinforce Mine's Detection Array, and by the way, he can also be considered as a guard."
"Didn't He Family move away?"
"Moved, the whole family moved to the Wang Family."
Steward Liu stood up and inserted Short Sword back into his waist.
"So now He Family is a member of the Wang Family. Wang Family incorporated He Family, and the monks of the He Family were also redistributed. Some went to the frontline stronghold, and some stayed behind to work. He Ming was sent here to be one of them."
Steward Liu leaned against the shed pillar and added another sentence.
"It's not just He Family. Recently, Wang Family has recruited several little Lineages. Basically, they were forced by Demon Beast and Li Family to be unable to survive on their own. Wang Family will give them places, resources, and shelter, on the condition that they return to the Wang Family for deployment."
He rubbed his chin.
"To put it bluntly, I just took this opportunity to grab all those little Lineages down there. In the past, we had a vassal relationship. You helped me work and I looked after you, but everyone went about their own lives. Now it's different. People are directly incorporated, no different from my own family."
Li Yuan hummed.
The situation is getting tighter. Wang Family is fighting Li Family while integrating the surrounding small forces, turning the loose vassal relationship into direct control.
"Mine How many people are there now?"
"Counting you, there are five." Steward Liu counted on his fingers. "Me, Lao Zhou, Sun Liang, He Ming, plus you."
There are still not many people, but with the Array reinforced by He Ming, at least the warning range is wider.
Li Yuan nodded, carrying the storage bag back to the low house where he lived before.
Things are put away and the door latch is fastened.
Li Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed and took out the two Meridian Expanding Talisman that had been made previously from the storage bag.
Meridian Expansion Affix has been made permanent, but Meridian Expanding Talisman itself has another use. After use, it can temporarily widen the meridians. Practicing with Cultivation Method can increase spiritual power throughput in a short period of time.
Li Yuan sticks a piece of Meridian Expanding Talisman to his chest, pours spiritual power into it and activates it.
The Spirit Pattern on Talisman Paper lit up, and a gentle force seeped into the body from Talisman Paper, spreading along the meridians to the limbs. The meridians expanded slightly under the action of Talisman, and the space for the circulation of spiritual power became larger.
Li Yuan immediately runs Spirit Guiding Art.
Spiritual Qi poured into the body from all directions, 20 to 30% more than usual. The pure Spiritual Power Affix operates simultaneously, impurities are removed, and clean spiritual power pours into the Dantian.
After one week, the amount of spiritual energy sinking into the Dantian was much more than usual.
The effect of Meridian Expanding Talisman lasted for about half an hour and then subsided, and the meridians returned to their original state.
But the amount of practice in half an hour is equivalent to most of an hour in normal times.
Li Yuan put away the used Talisman Paper, pasted the second one on it, and continued practicing.
After the two Meridian Expanding Talisman were used up, Li Yuan stopped and stood up.
Go to the table and spread out the copy of Spirit-Refining Talisman's preparation method.
Take out the special material Spirit-Refining Talisman from the storage bag.
Golden Talisman Paper is spread on the table. The texture is completely different from Green-Veined Paper. The paper is heavy and the shimmer is restrained. When you press it with your fingers, you can feel a very subtle spiritual power fluctuation under the paper.
The dark gold Spirit Ink is poured from the jade bottle. The ink itself has temperature. When you dip it on the tip of the pen, you can feel the spiritual power flowing in the ink.
This is Li Yuan's first contact with First-Tier Superior-Grade's Talisman Making material.
The difference between Low-grade First-Order and Low-grade First-Order is not only in quality, but also in that the requirements for spiritual power control are not on the same level at all.
Li Yuan dip in ink and put pen to paper.
The core Spirit Pattern of Spirit-Refining Talisman is called Spirit-Condensing Pattern, and it follows a precise spiral circuit. After the spiritual power flows out from the pen tip, it needs to form a spiral that shrinks inward on Talisman Paper. The spacing of each circle decreases, and Spiritual Qi Density increases.
The first circle is okay. When the spiritual power is spread out, the starting section of the spiral is not much different from the ordinary Spirit Pattern, except that the direction changes from a straight line to an arc.
On the second lap something went wrong.
The spacing of the spiral is beginning to decrease. The distance between the second circle and the first circle is nearly 30% shorter than the arc length of the first circle, which means that the pen tip has to complete the same spread of spiritual power in a shorter distance, and Spiritual Qi Density needs to be lifted up.
Li Yuan's wrist turned halfway, but Spiritual Qi Density failed to follow.
The second circle of Spirit Pattern was laid too thin, and there was an obvious gap between the first circle and the first circle. The spiritual energy was disconnected in the gap, and the entire Spirit-Condensing Pattern immediately fell apart.
Spirit Pattern on Golden Talisman Paper dimmed, the paper made a very slight squeaking sound, and a trace of scorch marks curled up on the edge.
Wasted.
Li Yuan lifted up the waste talisman and put it aside, then laid out the second one.
This time, he deliberately increased the spiritual power of the second circle in advance. The result was again - the spiritual power was too heavy, the Spirit Pattern of the second circle was crowded together with the first circle, the lines overlapped, the spiritual power interfered with each other at the overlap, and a small wisp of gray smoke came out of Talisman Paper.
Wasted again.
The third and fourth pictures.
Each piece fell in a different position. Some had problems in the second round, and some barely made it to the third round, but by the fourth round - the distance had shrunk to a minimum, and Spiritual Qi Density needed to be nearly twice as long as the first three rounds - the cooperation of the wrist and spiritual power could not keep up at all.
Four Golden Talisman Paper, all scrapped.
Li Yuan put down Talisman Brush and looked at the four useless talismans with scorch marks on the table.
The gap between First-Tier Superior-Grade and Low-grade First-Order was larger than he expected.
It's not that his skills are insufficient, but his spiritual power control is not precise enough. Spirit-Condensing Pattern's spiral circuit has extremely high requirements for Spiritual Qi Density's changes. Each circle must be adjusted accurately, and his current control level cannot achieve this kind of continuous incremental precision control.
Can't come in a hurry.
Li Yuan put the remaining Spirit-Refining Talisman materials back into the storage bag without further waste.
But after drawing these useless symbols, Li Yuan noticed one thing.
When drawing Spirit-Condensing Pattern, the spiritual power was transferred from the fingertips to the pen tip and then to the paper. Every link in this transmission chain required extremely fine control. Although all four pictures were scrapped, in the process of painting, his perception of every detail of the spiritual power transmission became clearer.
Talisman Making itself is training in spiritual power manipulation.
Every time you draw a stroke, the spiritual power is drawn from the Dantian, flows along the meridians to the arm, is transferred to the penholder through the fingertips, and poured into Talisman Paper from the tip of the pen - the more you go on this path, the more precise the control becomes.
Especially Spirit Pattern of First-Tier Superior-Grade, the control requirements are much higher than Low-grade First-Order. Even if the painting is useless, the process itself is polishing the accuracy of spiritual power control.
Compared with deliberately practicing spiritual power manipulation, Talisman Making is a more efficient method because it has clear feedback - if it is successful, it will be successful, and if it is failed, you will know where it is not precise enough.
Li Yuan cleaned the desktop, left the low house, and walked towards Mine Cave.
Mine Cave has changed deeply than before he left.
The main Mine Tunnel extended for about ten feet, and a new cavity was cut out at the end. Someone re-added a few pieces of Fluorescent Stone on the cave wall, and the light was brighter than before.
The concentration of Fiend Qi in the air is obviously higher than before.
The secluded branch road before was still there, but Li Yuan continued to walk deeper and found a place to sit on the edge of the newly dug cavity.
Fiend Qi seeps up from the cracks in the rock formations under your feet, and the concentration is nearly twice as high as that on the branch road.
Li Yuan sat cross-legged and took out Iron Ox Technique's book from the storage bag.
I didn't have any equipment, so I just opened it and looked at it.
Iron Ox Technique has stopped at Mastery Stage for a long time.
Nurturing Origin Technique and Micro-Origin Meridian Guiding Art have been promoted before, but Iron Ox Technique has been shelved.
The practice of Mastery Stage requires continuous use of Qi and Blood to flush the internal organs and improve the toughness of the internal organs, but the progress has been very slow.
But things are different now.
Nurturing Origin Technique After Perfection, Qi and Blood keeps running on its own, and the muscles, fascia and internal organs of the whole body are in a state of continuous nourishment. Coupled with the superimposed effects of Fiend Qi Body Tempering, Iron Membrane Protection, Meridian Expansion and other Permanent Affix, the physical fitness is more than one level better than in the initial stage of Mastery.
The endurance capacity of the organs increases, the total amount of Qi and Blood increases, and the flushing efficiency will naturally increase accordingly.
Li Yuan Close your eyes and run Iron Ox Technique.
Qi and Blood leads from the Dantian and does not follow the conventional route of the meridians. Instead, it is poured directly into the organs along the unique path of Iron Ox Technique.
The liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys are flushed in sequence.
At the same time, he introduced Fiend Qi into his body.
Fiend Qi deep in Mine Cave seeps up from the feet, penetrates into the skin along the pores, is pulled by Fiend Qi Body Tempering Affix, and penetrates into the fascia and around the organs.
Qi and Blood and Fiend Qi act on the internal organs at the same time.
Qi and Blood is flushed from the inside, and Fiend Qi is squeezed from the outside. The two forces advance and retreat, and the internal organs are repeatedly kneaded under this dual action, and the toughness increases at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The progress of Iron Ox Technique begins to increase.
[Cultivation Method: Iron Ox Technique-Mastery(387/800)]
It has increased a lot. Before, it stopped at Mastery Stage for so long, and the value has been hovering around 300. Now it has jumped up dozens of points in one breath.
Li Yuan Continue to work hard.
The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time.
The improvement rate is decreasing with each pass, but the total amount is still considerable. The double flushing of Fiend Qi and Qi and Blood allows the toughness of the internal organs to continue to grow, and the progress of Iron Ox Technique has been pushed all the way to the early 400s.
But by the sixth time, the changes began to slow down.
It's not a problem with Qi and Blood, it's a problem with Fiend Qi.
The same concentration of Fiend Qi has the strongest effect in the first flush. It is reduced by 20% in the second flush, and again in the third flush. By the sixth flush, Fiend Qi can hardly feel any pressure after it penetrates into the internal organs.
The body is adapting and the body is getting stronger.
The stimulation caused by Fiend Qi of the same intensity is getting smaller, and the tempering effect will naturally weaken accordingly.
It's like being spanked to train your skin - it will be red and swollen at first, but after being spanked every day, the same intensity will no longer hurt. If you want to continue practicing, you have to increase the intensity.
Li Yuan opened his eyes and looked around.
The concentration of Fiend Qi in the depth of Mine Cave was already the highest level he could find. Going deeper, the rock formations had not been dug through yet, making it impossible to pass through.
Unless a more concentrated source of Fiend Qi is found.
Li Yuan did not hesitate, temporarily put away Iron Ox Technique, and switched back to Spirit Guiding Art to continue cultivating spiritual power.
After practicing in Mine Cave for another two hours, Li Yuan got up and walked out.
When we got out of Mine Cave, it was completely dark.
There was a dim oil lamp on the other side of the small house, and Sun Liang was squatting at the door eating dry food. He saw Li Yuan walking back from the direction of Mine Cave and raised the dried meat in his hand towards him.
"Deputy Captain Li, stayed in there all day?"
"Hmm."
Li Yuan walked over and sat down on the stone next to him.
One or two low roars of Demon Beast came from the direction of the mountain col in the distance, intermittently.
