Chapter 408 Demon Hunt
Jilan lowered his eyes and looked at his hands carefully.
On the palms of the left and right hands, there is a circular mark engraved on each, with an equilateral triangle pattern inlaid in the middle, forming a basic alchemy array.
And at each vertex of the equilateral triangle, there is a circle, and there is still a equilateral triangle embedded in the circle.
This cycle repeats, nested four times.
The dense lines and symbols fill it, making people dizzy and dizzy at first glance.
When Parra started to inscribe just now, Jilan did not feel any pain, but at this time, there was a faint warmth and tingling in the palms of his hands.
"The left hand is used for decomposition, and the right hand is used for reconstruction?"
Jilan observed the lines of the "Secret Pattern of the Sage" in the palm of his hand and murmured.
But soon, his eyes froze.
Jilan raised his head suddenly and glanced at teacher Parra in surprise.
"No...it doesn't seem to be the case."
"Did you see it?" the white-haired old man said with a smile. "Actually, the 'Secret Patterns of the Sage' on the left and right hands are decomposed, independent but can be superimposed to achieve a strong decomposition effect... If you put your hands together, they can be combined into a reconstructed array."
" It's true." Ji Lan raised his eyebrows.
His "Secret Pattern of the Sage" is obviously different from his teacher's. Paracelsus's decomposition array and reconstruction array were not separated separately, but merged into one, so that the casting time was shorter and the power was greater.
"Come on, give it a try." Parra said, taking out a tube of thick black reagent from the drawer. "This is an 'Alchemy Catalyst'. It contains limited energy. It is far inferior to the 'Philosopher's Stone', but it is enough to support you in performing alchemy several times."
Gilan took it silently. Teacher's reagent.
Then he poured it on his hands.
Pattering.
The two marks on the palm suddenly bloomed with silver light, and in a few breaths, all the thick black liquid was absorbed.
Gilan held the empty glass bottle in his left hand and took a deep breath.
"Refining!" He shouted softly.
Crack!
A bright silver arc of electricity burst out from his left hand, jumping and sizzling.
Soon, the glass bottle in his hand disintegrated instantly and turned into a puddle of ash-like dust material, which accumulated on his palm.
"Everything in the world exists within the law of truth. The 'Secret Pattern of the Sage' condenses all my understanding of alchemy in my life."
Pala said solemnly.
"This is an act of leveraging the truth with a mortal body. Understanding all things, decomposing all things, and reconstructing all things, just like gods."
Jilan listened quietly to the teacher's words .
His eyes were fixed on the powder in his palm.
Immediately, he slowly brought his right hand up and closed his hands.
A lot of alchemical knowledge flashed through Gillan's mind, and he concentrated on recalling the structure and composition of a creature.
At the same time, he said in a deep voice:
“Construction!”
Crack! !
Silver-white arcs of electricity danced between his hands.
Pu Pu Pu Pu——
I saw dozens of blue butterflies flying out of Ji Lan’s hands!
Then, under the watchful eyes of the master and apprentice, it flew around the office, and finally flew out through the open window.
"Succeeded..." Jilan smiled.
He stood up from his chair, solemnly took off his hat and bowed slightly to the white-haired old man.
"Thank you, teacher."
"No need to see anyone outside." Parra waved her hand.
He looked at the young man in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and said:
"It is truly remarkable to be able to successfully master the 'Secret Marks of the Sage' in such a short period of time... …And this can be considered as fulfilling most of my wishes.”
"Jilan, everything in the world follows the principle of 'equivalent exchange', so every time you use the 'Secret Pattern of the Sage', you need to consume the corresponding energy..."
"Although the ordinary 'Alchemy Catalyst' It can be charged, but even the top catalyst cannot withstand a few times of consumption. This is okay in normal times, but it is quite deadly once it is in combat."
Ji. Lan nodded, understanding what the teacher meant.
So he took advantage of the situation and said:
“So, only the ‘Philosopher’s Stone’ can do this.”
"Not bad." Parra nodded and confirmed. "The energy contained in the 'Philosopher's Stone' is thousands of times that of the top catalytic drugs. Just one stone can last you a long time."
"And its beauty doesn't stop there. "
"Go to the Land of Gods again and find the entrance to the 'Corridor'. There are many devils wandering in that area...Hunt and capture enough devil lords or nobles and bring them back. I will personally teach you how to refine the 'Philosopher's Stone'"
Pala said.
“By the way, you should also make up for the remaining three ‘footprints’ and prepare in advance for advancement to level 5.”
bite!
At this time, Ji Lan suddenly heard a crisp sound in his ears.
The colorful light formed several lines of skewed writing in front of him, and even Teacher Parra did not notice it:
"Trigger mission: Demon Hunt."
< br>"Teacher Para Celsus suggests that you should refine the 'Philosopher's Stone' as the energy source of the 'Secret Mark of the Sage', and this requires high-level devils as the main material."
"Please follow Pala's prompts and go to Toyalan, the hometown of gods, to find the entrance to the 'corridor' and capture enough high-level devils to return."
"Time limit: 168 hours."
"Reward: Moderate improvement in gnosis, spirituality, and physical body (choose one from three)."
"Task not accepted."
It was only then that Jilan realized that he was his "player" "Plasma passively triggers the ability of "Golden Sigh".
He didn't hesitate and said directly in his heart:
'Accept. ’
Ding!
With another crisp sound, the colored text disappeared.
“I understand, teacher.”
Jilan nodded towards the old man and said.
Pala hummed and said with a smile:
“Let’s go back and rest first. I have been too busy during this period, and my body and mind are tense... Even if you and I are both long-term people, I am tired. Only a happy union can last forever."
"Thank you for your concern, teacher, I will do it."
Jilan bowed again, then turned and left under the gaze of the old man.
…
…
After returning to the apartment at No. 9 Morales Street, Guillen went to the alchemy room in the attic alone and locked the door.
He stood in front of the huge workbench, lit the lamp, and looked at the debris on the table quietly.
After thinking about it, Jilan picked up a tin pot and played with it for a while. Then, he activated the power of the "Secret Pattern of the Sage".
Crack!
The silver arc jumped, and the tin pot instantly turned into powder. Ji Lan then put his hands together and reconstructed the powder into a seed.
The seeds sprouted and grew in the palm of his hand at a speed visible to the naked eye, and turned into a bright scarlet rose.
Jilan looked at the flowers in her hands, smelling the rich sweet fragrance, and couldn't help but sigh. This was not a trick, but a real decomposition and reconstruction of one unrelated thing into another. thing.
At this time, he discovered that the marks on the palms of his hands were slightly dim, probably because the energy of the "catalytic medicine" he had absorbed before had been consumed a lot.
Gillan was lost in thought.
'Since what is needed is energy, can the mysterious points stored in "Panlan" be used as the energy source for the "Secret Pattern of the Sage"...'
He thought for a while and planned Exhaust the energy in the secret pattern first before trying again.
So, Gilan continued to use alchemy.
Crack!
As the silver electric light suddenly appeared, the rose in his hand instantly withered and turned into powder. It was closed by his hands and reconstructed into a pink coral-like substance.
This is a mysterious material called "Yingshan", which is an indispensable main material for refining "wick potion". However, after Ji Lan looked at it for a moment, he looked disappointed.
‘It’s just superficial and has the same appearance, it’s not the real “Yingshan”. It seems that ordinary matter cannot be decomposed and reconstructed into mysterious materials... That's right, this does not comply with the principle of "equivalent exchange". ’
He tried several times in succession, with the same result. The refined materials all have the same appearance, but do not contain mysterious substances.
And Jilan's "Secret Pattern of the Sage" also happened to run out of energy and could no longer perform alchemy.
‘Beautiful! ’
Jilan called out in her heart.
Then, he tentatively grasped the newly made black jade stone in his hand——
Crack! !
Dazzling bright silver arcs burst out from its fingertips!
The black stone in the palm of his hand instantly decomposed in the silver arc.
"Huh?" Jilan's eyes lit up. "It works!"
He clasped his hands together.
There was a snap.
A pink coral appeared again, but this time, it was the real "Yingshan"!
“Mysterious points can not only be used as the energy source of the ‘Secret Pattern of the Sage’, but they can also be used to refine ordinary items into mysterious materials?!”
Jilan was quite surprised.
He quickly turned his attention to the colorful numbers in the corner of his sight. The "112" points of energy that were left were now only "62".
It cost 50 points of energy to make "Yingshan".
‘This kind of consumption is quite reasonable. ’
Jilan nodded, the smile on his face even wider.
This new discovery made him quite happy.
Because this means that the "Secret Pattern of the Sage" will have more possibilities with the help of "Bailan".
‘As long as I have enough mysterious points, I can refine mysterious materials... Maybe most of the mysterious things involved can be refined! ’
Gillan thought.
…
…
Night.
Lucid dreaming, the spiritual kingdom Rodran.
Gilan summoned all the members of the "Hand of Dawn" to gather in the open-air stone hall.
The four people, the blue stork, the black snipe, the white gull and the red sparrow, arrived here one after another and sat down on the top of the stone pillar pointed by each.
As soon as they entered, they actually discovered the changes here. Because it's so obvious that it's hard not to notice.
First of all, the area of the open-air stone palace has been further expanded compared to before, with a diameter of almost one mile.
Such a huge stone palace is equivalent to four or five football fields, giving people a sense of spaciousness and solemnity. The cross-sword bonfire in the center miraculously illuminates the entire stone palace.
Even the dim night and the black sea beyond can't suppress the fire here.
In addition, what is particularly eye-catching is that on the thumb stone pillar, on the side of the throne figure, there is a huge white sheep.
It is covered in armor, has horns on its head, and has flaming legs on its four feet. The corners of his rotten mouth were cracked, as if he was still smiling.
The pair of black and white horizontal pupils were filled with a violent and fierce light, which made the four of them feel uncomfortable.
Red Bird Aurora was the first to retract her gaze, seemingly unwilling to look at the ram any longer.
"Mr. Gillan, thank you."
She looked at the purple-eyed young man and said softly.
"With your gift of power again, I have successfully promoted to level 3 'Glow', and the required accumulation has been completed ahead of schedule... Next, I only need to visit the land of gods once, and then touch level 4 With the original essence, you can climb to the stage of Jiushi."
"Our situation is similar."
Cang Stork and others nodded and agreed with a smile.
Gillan waved his hand.
“This is why we have called everyone together this time.”
He said, pointing in the direction of the Black Sea outside the stone palace.
"I'm going to the land of gods, and I can take you on a trip."
"Huh?"
The four Cang Storks were startled at first, and then looked at each other with expressions of joy.
Red Bird Aurora said with a smile:
"This is really great, Mr. Gillan!"
"In fact, during this time, I tried I want to set sail from here and search for traces of the Land of God on the vast sea... But even with the 'emotional anchoring method' taught by you, Jilan, I still fail repeatedly."
Bai Ou shook his head and said.
The Blue Stork and the Black Sandpiper agreed with Alivia's words and nodded.
"In that case, let's set off."
Gilan smiled.
The four of them readily agreed, each leapt down from the stone pillar seats, and followed Gilan out of the stone hall through the stone path.
When he arrived at the beach, Gilan gently snapped his fingers.
Snap!
A small wooden boat appeared out of thin air and landed on the sea with a splash, splashing black water.
This boat exudes bright and dazzling four-color light, giving people a sense of luxury and stability.
“Come up.”
Jilan said to his companions, took a step by himself, and landed lightly on the boat.
The other four people were not restrained and boarded the boat one after another.
Soon, the boat automatically cut through the sea without oars, sailed away from the shore of the Soul Island, and headed towards the endless dark horizon...
On the way.
A few people from the community were sitting on the boat chatting.
“By the way, have your respective level 4 secrets been prepared in advance?”
Gillan asked.
Originally, he didn't have much hope, but unexpectedly, the four Cang Storks all nodded.
"Perhaps because of the rapid progress, the top management of the secret society had great expectations for me, so they handed over the fourth-level secret transmission to me."
Cang Stork said.
The situation of the other three people is similar.
"Is that so..." Jilan was startled, then smiled and said: "It's not a bad thing anyway."
"Just right, I have a request. I hope everyone can share their level 4 secrets with me. As a In exchange, I will give you a copy of the Level 5 ‘Monster’ Secret.”
“Although you can’t use it, you can use it as a knowledge commodity to find opportunities to trade with others.”
How could anyone refuse Jilan’s request.
Even if he does not propose an exchange, the four Cang Storks are willing to share their secrets with him unconditionally.
As a result, everyone shared their secrets with each other on the boat.
Gilan thus mastered the secret knowledge of "Match", "Patient", "Mumbling" and "Flag Bearer" one after another.
He directly "fed" these four secrets to "Banlan" to help him deduce.
This time, the 3,000 points of mysterious energy originally required are discounted again, reduced to 2,000!
‘Very good…’
Gillan had a smile in her eyes.
‘This way, the pressure of collecting mysterious points is reduced. ’
