Chapter 113 The Five Elements Spiritual Flame and the Inspector of the Tiangong Division (please subscribe)
“Everyone! According to the numbers on your respective jade tablets, go to the assessment table and take your seat according to the number!”
Item Refining There were three people sitting on the judges' bench at the division examination table.
The leader is a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance and a smiling face.
This person is Deacon Qin from the Tiangong Division.
On both sides of him were a woman in a blue dress and an old man in a black robe.
This woman in a blue dress has a slender figure, and her eyebrows are as clear as a clear spring.
The starry eyes are bright and the teeth are white, and the snowy face looks like a lotus.
The figure is slender and exquisite, but the only flaw is that there is a slight coldness between the eyebrows.
The old man had a goatee and looked at the people on the field for assessment with a keen eye.
"There are a total of one hundred and thirty-two monks participating in the first-grade weapon refiner assessment this time."
"Most of them are late-stage Qi-training monks. Of course, there are also Foundation-building monks and even mid-stage Qi-training monks. "
"It can be seen that our Lingxia Fairy City is prosperous and prosperous!"
"As long as we work hard and practice, becoming a first-level magician is just around the corner!"
Qin Zhi said beforehand. Some words of encouragement.
"Now, I will announce the procedures for this assessment."
"This assessment is divided into three rounds."
"The first round is a theoretical test, which mainly tests your understanding of imprints. Systematic grasp of theory, testing the structure and theory of imprints, etc. "
"The second round is the instrument repair assessment, which tests your vision and experience."
" The third round is the actual drawing of the imprint assessment, which is also the most critical round.”
"Okay, there is still a quarter of an hour left, the assessment will begin, everyone, be ready!"
Why is this third round the most critical?
Because the basic requirement for a first-grade inscription master is that he must successfully refine a first-grade high-grade inscription individually. As for what kind of inscription it is, it depends on the specific circumstances of the assessment.
Zhou Ling sat cross-legged on the futon, with a jade platform in front of him.
About a foot in front of him, sitting cross-legged, there was another monk participating in the assessment.
The distance between the monks is about ten feet. There is a jade platform in front of each of them, and there are isolation circles between them so that they will not interfere with each other.
Beside the jade platform is a wooden table, on which are placed several pieces of spiritual paper, spiritual pens, spiritual ink and two utensils, but they are still in a sealed state.
The specific shape of this appliance cannot be clearly seen.
The jade platform is connected to the earth fire. Through the jade platform, the weapon refiner can use the earth fire to carve imprints.
Of course, those weapon refiners who have cultivated spiritual flames do not need to rely on earth fire.
After all, it is easier to control one's own spiritual flames, and the success rate will be higher.
However, there are still very few monks who develop spiritual flames in the later stages of Qi training.
"Brother Ling, try your best to perform better later!"
While Zhou Ling was waiting patiently, a steady voice sounded in his ears.
It was Deacon Qin who was transmitting messages to him.
Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment and looked at Deacon Qin at the judges' table.
“This woman is the inspector of the Tiangong Department. If you can leave a good impression on her, it will be of great help to your future!”
Deacon Qin picked up the Holding the tea cup, the corner of his mouth raised slightly, an encouraging look flashed in his eyes, and then he took a sip of tea.
While inspecting the Tiangong Department's situation in each fairy city, the inspectors of the Tiangong Division are also responsible for looking for some talent seedlings that can be cultivated.
So, he also informed Zhou Ling, hoping that Zhou Ling could seize this opportunity.
Leave a good impression on the inspector.
I will make further recommendations when the time comes.
Maybe Zhou Ling can be registered by the Tiangong Division and become a key training target of the Tiangong Division in the future.
Of course, whether he can seize the opportunity depends on Zhou Ling's own strength.
All I can do is remind him.
A look of surprise flashed in Zhou Ling's eyes, and he glanced at the girl subconsciously. She looked like she was only eighteen or nineteen years old.
He is already the inspector of the Tiangong Division.
It seems that as a second-grade weapon refiner, Deacon Qin still treats her with great respect!
How can I leave a good impression on her?
Zhou Ling scratched his head, but he had no good solution for the moment.
Ignore him, just pass this assessment first.
With Deacon Qin’s character, reminding himself like this must have his purpose.
However, in this situation, I can only do my best.
“The time has come, please now ask Deacon Lu to open the assessment seal!”
A quarter of an hour later, Deacon Qin’s deep voice sounded again.
As his voice fell, the ancient copper bell in the square suddenly rang out a clear chime, which resounded throughout the square.
The girl also stood up, and immediately recited the mantra, and injected a stream of spiritual energy into the jade array in front of her.
Suddenly, Zhou Ling felt a slight tremor on the assessment table.
Subsequently, the light sealing the spiritual paper, spiritual ink, spiritual pen and utensils also dissipated.
Then there was a muffled popping sound, and wisps of flames rose up from the sapphire platform.
At the same time, a transparent light curtain began to rise about one foot around each person, and the light curtain separated the various examination monks.
"Wood Cloud Seal and Golden Fire Pill Furnace!"
Looking at the two instruments, Zhou Ling couldn't help but murmured.
The Wooden Cloud Seal is mainly used for the second round of assessment. The light on the imprint is dim, and it is obvious that the imprint inside it has been damaged.
The surface of the Golden Fire Pill Stove is flashing with a faint golden light, which is obviously a perfect instrument that was recently made.
This one is about repairing the first-level high-grade imprint, and the other is about painting. The difficulty of both is different.
Although the two inscriptions are only inscriptions with nineteen inscriptions, they are not difficult among first-level high-grade inscriptions.
However, it is quite difficult for newcomers who are taking the first-grade inscription master examination for the first time.
And there is only one piece of each utensil, which undoubtedly means that it can only be successful once.
This undoubtedly adds a lot of difficulty.
Looking at the two magical instruments, Zhou Ling couldn't help but glance at the other monks and found that the instruments on the wooden tables of other monks seemed to be different.
However, he quickly withdrew his gaze. The situation of others had little to do with him.
As long as you can pass the assessment!
Set your sights on Jade Terrace again.
At this time, a round, palm-sized hole opened on the jade platform, and a faint flame rose inside.
I think this is the ground fire of Jinyang Peak.
[Your beast flames and spirit flames absorb the energy of gold, fire and earth fire, the gas-eating spirit fire +1, the level of beast flames and spirit flames +1]
[Haoyang Fire Fusion Technique Absorb the energy of gold, fire and earth fire, the air-eating spiritual fire +1, the Haoyang fire-melting skill proficiency +1]
[Effect: The air-eating spiritual fire enters the third level 1000/10,000, achieving the Five Elements Food Qi Spirit Fire]
[Remarks: Five Elements Food Qi Spirit Fire can absorb the Qi of the five elements of heaven and earth and enhance the spiritual flames]
[The cumulative number of times the Five Elements Qi has been absorbed: 1000/10,000]
[Effect: The Spiritual Flame grows into a second-grade Five Elements Spiritual Flame]
Then the Spiritual Flame seems to start running automatically.
At the same time, the "Five Elements Qian Yang Zhenjue" also started to operate.
[You are practicing "Five Elements Qian Yang Zhen Jue", your natural talent +1, metallic aura +2, "Five Elements Qian Yang Zhen Jue" proficiency +2]
The prompt sounds appeared one after another.
At this moment, in Zhou Ling's body, one could vaguely see a new faint golden meridian circulating among the meridians.
As the "Five Elements Qianyang True Jue" was running, Zhou Ling's mind naturally appeared in the "Five Elements Qianyang True Jue" regarding the cultivation of metallic spiritual power.
"Jinyuan Chongguang Jue"!
He could clearly feel that the earthly fire on the jade platform was pouring into his body.
There seemed to be a sharp energy accompanying the scorching flames.
The earth fire of Jinyun Peak is of the metal fire attribute.
A look of surprise appeared on Zhou Ling's face. He did not expect that with the [Qi-Eating Spiritual Flame] talent rising to the third level.
Not only did the spirit flame evolve into the Five Elements Spirit Flame, it also absorbed the energy of earth fire and condensed the metallic meridians to circulate.
In the future, I will also be able to absorb metallic spiritual power and practice.
In this way, the circulation of the five elements meridians has condensed the three paths, fire, wood, and metal, plus earth and water.
However, Zhou Ling didn't think much, exhaled a breath, and decisively stopped running the "Five Elements Qianyang Zhenjue". Now is not the time to practice.
After calming down a little, I took out the spiritual paper and started to look at it.
The first round is the basic assessment of inscription patterns and seals.
Divided into two scrolls.
The previous picture is the basic knowledge of inscriptions.
This was not difficult for him and was completed quickly. The second picture is about the basic theory of imprinting.
It involves the transformation of the imprinting structure, nodes, and textures. It involves many skills and a huge range of knowledge.
If you are not an inscription master who has learned to perfect the inheritance of imprints, it will be difficult to answer it correctly.
Zhou Ling feels that these questions are quite unfriendly to casual inscription masters.
If it weren’t for the relatively complete Imprint Cultivation Technique obtained from the master.
He couldn't answer many of the questions correctly.
The monk not far away was mostly a casual cultivator. He frowned while looking at the question, rather than scratching his head.
After the first round, take a short break before starting the second round.
This round of repairing the magic weapon is a test of real skills.
The assessment is based on vision, experience and real level.
Zhou Ling reached out and picked up the wooden cloud seal and observed it carefully.
For others, this round is quite difficult.
Because to see the damage of an imprint, there are high requirements for eyesight and imprint proficiency.
But for Zhou Ling, it's not that difficult.
[You are observing the Muyun Imprint, Intermediate Observation +1, Muyun Imprint Proficiency +3]
[You are analyzing the Muyun Imprint, Intermediate Analysis +1, Muyun Imprint +3 Yun Mingyin proficiency +3】
With the help of [Intermediate Insight] and [Intermediate Analysis], he quickly discovered the problem with Mu Yunming.
This wooden cloud seal is an imprint of nineteen lines, and it adopts a central diffusion structure.
The central pattern is the main pattern, and the other eighteen patterns are connected through three nodes.
And this imprint is a problem with one of the three nodes.
Because the structures of the three nodes are almost the same, you can only keep trying after injecting spiritual power.
It is possible to find the problem.
And the control of spiritual power in this process is extremely demanding.
If the inscription pattern and nodes are broken due to a slight lack of control, the difficulty of repair will undoubtedly increase significantly.
It may even cause the seal to break directly, and the wooden cloud seal will be scrapped directly.
This means that the assessment failed.
It is also difficult to observe where the seal is damaged.
But the repair process is a bigger difficulty.
Normally speaking, according to the properties of this Wood Cloud Inscription, you must choose wood-attribute spiritual ink to draw the inscription.
But Muyun Imprint is an exception.
Its nodes are constructed from fire attribute spiritual ink, which matches the wood attribute texture.
On the contrary, it can better lock the spiritual power in it.
So, once you use wood attribute spiritual ink to repair.
This Muyun imprint is completely useless.
Fortunately, with the help of [Intermediate Analysis], Zhou Ling was able to get the correct repair line.
Even a first-grade inscription master may not be able to see this situation.
For a novice, it is undoubtedly too difficult.
Then, Zhou Ling picked up the magic pen and started to repair the imprint according to the repair plan given by [Intermediate Analysis].
After a while, the cyan light of Muyunyin gradually lit up.
Zhou Ling observed carefully again, and after confirming that there were no problems, he sent Mu Yunyin to the judges' table.
At this moment, the other monks taking the assessment were still looking at the magic weapons in front of them, thinking hard.
"Zhou Ling, are you sure it has been repaired?"
Seeing Zhou Ling hand over the magic weapon so quickly, Deacon Qin couldn't help but frowned and said.
Although he knew that Zhou Ling was quite accomplished in imprinting, his speed was too fast.
The duration of this round of assessment is one hour.
And Zhou Ling handed over the magic weapon in less than a quarter of an hour!
Even with his ability as a second-grade weapon refiner, he could not guarantee that he could do it so quickly.
He was slightly surprised again, "Isn't it because of the message he just sent that made Zhou Ling think that by completing it quickly, he would be able to attract Deacon Lu's attention?"
"Did this little brother finish it so quickly?"
As expected, the woman glanced at Zhou Ling, with a flash of curiosity, and asked lightly.
The monks participating in the assessment were originally mainly sixteen or seventeen-year-olds, with a few twelve or thirteen-year-olds among them.
This round of assessment is about eyesight and experience. A boy of twelve or thirteen years old may have never even touched a broken magic weapon.
How much practical experience there will be.
That's why she asked curiously.
"Deacon Qin, there is a problem with a node of this Mu Yun Ming Seal!"
Zhou Ling cupped his hands, glanced at Deacon Qin who had a slightly surprised face, and then said seriously .
"Okay! Since you confirmed to hand it over, we will accept it!"
"Be more careful in the next round!"
Deacon Qin took the Mu Yunyin and warned him with a serious face.
“Yes!”
Zhou Ling turned around and left, returning to his place.
"Deacon Qin, is this boy your disciple?"
Looking at the familiarity between the two, the girl frowned slightly and asked indifferently.
"No!" Deacon Qin shook his head and said with a smile on his face, "This child's name is Zhou Ling. His parents are both casual cultivators. His father is a pharmacist and his mother runs a wine shop."
"The previous one Yue, because of the evil cultivator incident, accidentally learned that this boy has a good talent in imprinting, and with the fifth level of Qi training, he can actually draw soul imprints."
"That's why I made an exception. , Recruit him to the Tiangong Division!"
Deacon Qin said while checking the Muyun Seal in his hand.
Immediately, his face lit up with joy, "This guy really repaired it!"
I didn't expect Zhou Ling to have such keen observation and experience.
However, thinking about Zhou Ling's information, he has been drawing magic weapons for the Lu Family Workshop since he was a child, and he seems to have unique advantages in terms of souls.
Looking at it this way, it seems to make sense.
Hearing what Deacon Qin said, the woman's eyes glanced at Zhou Ling, who was sitting cross-legged and looking at the golden stove, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
There seems to be nothing special about the fifth level of Qi training and the rest.
"Deacon Qin, show me this wooden cloud seal!"
The woman said to Deacon Qin again.
Deacon Qin nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but recognize Zhou Ling's potential in his heart.
And it seems that it has successfully attracted Lu Yunxi's attention.
After Lu Yunxi inspected the Mu Yun Seal for a while, he handed the Mu Yun Seal to Deacon Qin again.
With her eyes, she could naturally tell that this Muyun Imprint was quite difficult.
A casual cultivator at the fifth level of Qi training was able to repair it so quickly, which really surprised her.
And just now, Deacon Qin deliberately revealed to her that Zhou Ling could refine soul seals.
This made her turn her attention to Zhou Ling again.
Looking at Zhou Ling placing the spiritual paper and spiritual ink in an orderly manner, he seemed to be ready to start drawing the golden fire imprint.
Just from his capable movements, you can see that he is very familiar with it.
Then I found Zhou Ling's name on a piece of spiritual paper in front of me, picked up the pen and wrote the word "A".
Since these assessment and scoring papers must be sealed, spiritual paper is used to ensure sealing and long-term preservation.
Deacon Qin also wrote the word A on his assessment paper.
In addition, the old man in black robe, after checking the Muyun Seal, also wrote the word A.
At this time, Zhou Ling was about to start drawing the golden fire imprint on the golden stove.
But before that, he planned to draw on the spiritual paper.
After all, there is enough time now, and you can also improve your proficiency with the help of spiritual paper drawing.
Zhou Ling exhaled slowly. With his current level of inscriptions, he wanted to successfully refine the gold and fire inscriptions with nineteen lines.
It won’t be too difficult, and there is [Precise Control] and Spirit Flame to help.
What's more, this is the fire attribute mark that he is most familiar with, and it is even more powerful.
However, since there is only one chance to draw.
So naturally we can’t be careless.
It must be absolutely foolproof.
