Chapter 220.
[You did not reveal your own alchemy talent, but instead joined the Advent Sect with a new identity.]
[With your strength nowadays, you are almost an existence that crushes the three faction lords, yet you did not reveal your own true strength, only showing that you are at the peak of the Martial Emperor, and barely became a protector of the Advent Sect.]
[In the year that followed, you cooperated with Luo Shujing and pocketed most of the medicinal herbs in the Advent Sect’s treasury.]
[You refined pills daily, preparing to keep them to gift to the Grand Xia military in the future.]
[In the second year, you once again traveled to a copy of the Luo Heavenly Assembly, hoping to enhance your own comprehension of the Way of the Puppet.]]
In the real world, Su Wake nodded slightly at the sight of this and murmured:
”Use Immersion Simulation ……”
[Ding, you have successfully used the Immersion …… remaining energy of 3 billion 16.63 million points.]
Soon, the time for one Immersion Simulation ended, and Su Wake reentered the real world.
”Not bad, with Granny Ghost’s guidance, my comprehension of the Way of the Puppet can be said to have grown by leaps and bounds ……”
”Although I haven’t stepped into the minor achievement level yet, but initially transforming and driving those puppets shouldn’t be too much of a problem ……”
The corner of Su Wake’s mouth rose slightly.
With his current attainments in the puppet path, which was only at the entry level, it was not too realistic to create puppets that could refine pills.
But fortunately, Su Wake had eight existing puppets that only needed to be slightly modified, and might be able to come in handy for Su Wake in a short period of time.
”But unfortunately, as time continues to pass, the Luo Tian Assembly replica only has two years left before it closes …… This means that for every simulation in the future, I will only be able to enter twice more at most …… ”
Su woke up and sighed.
He had always had a premonition in his heart that there was definitely some sort of shocking secret hidden in the Luo Heavenly Assembly replica, and Su Wake had to explore as much as he could in the next limited amount of time to find out where this secret was.
”But right now, it’s better to muddle through the waters in the Advent Sect first, if we can become the faction leader, perhaps we can obtain greater secrets and learn the identity of that mysterious person?”
Thinking so, Su Wake’s gaze looked towards the simulation panel.
[After coming out from the copy of Luo Tian Assembly, you rejoined the Advent Sect and continued to be your own protector.]
[You acted bravely when carrying out missions, and in your daily life, you acted as if you cared for your subordinates.]
Within a short period of one year, you have close to 20,000 fans in the Adventist Church.
There are even Adventists who are secretly encouraging you to create a new faction, and they are willing to join your faction.
[But in order to avoid being suspected by the two faction leaders of Adventism and Old Dog Long, you did not choose to do so.]
[Rather, you continued to stay in Adventism, playing the role of a loyal cadre.]
[In private, you secretly concocted pills and continued to study the way of talismans.]
[In a year’s time, the number of spirit carp that died at your hands was enough for thousands.]
But at the same time, you’ve mastered several types of talismans, which you can use to great effect.
For example, a second-order talisman that can increase speed, the Wind Talisman, can be used by master-level professionals to double their speed within an incense burner’s time, and can also increase the speed of master-level professionals by 50%!
[For example, the 1st rank talisman, the Bull Talisman, when used, can increase a professional’s strength by one to nine bulls, which is a great boost to the strength of low-ranked professionals.]]
[In addition to that, the Golden Blade Talisman that activates the Golden Blade, the Vajra Talisman that activates the Shield, and so on.]
[In the third year, your understanding of the way of talismans has been thoroughly initiated.]
[This is due to the talisman expert talent bonus you possess, coupled with your amazing divine soul talent, as well as the divine sense of the subtle realm.]
[The way of the talisman has extremely high requirements for spiritual power, i.e., divine sense. If a low-ranked cultivator makes a mistake, even by a fraction of a second, a talisman will break.] [However, your divine sense at the subtle realm has already been completely introduced.
[But you enter the subtle realm of divine sense, able to make the talisman formula in the mind complete seal engraving out, all that is needed is to continue to practice as well as the grasp of the details, the use of spiritual power ……]
[This year, you are still at the introductory level for the way of talismans, but you have already been able to carve out dozens of first and second order talismans, and even third order talismans, you have mastered several of them]]
In the real world, Su Wake nodded slightly when he saw this:
”Indeed, thick and thin!”
”The way of talismans, all that is needed is the strength of divine sense, the mastery of spiritual power ……”
”The talismans left behind by previous generations are like mathematical formulas …… possessing their own characteristics, and with my strong spiritual power, I’m naturally able to memorize those talismanic imprints in their entirety, which is something that lower-ranked cultivators can’t possibly compare to.”
”Refining third-order talismans is roughly equivalent to master-level strength …… If you reach fourth-order then it’s equivalent to the Grandmaster level and fifth-order Heavenly King level …… Refining sixth-order talismans will enable ordinary professionals to, in a short period of time, have the ability to threaten Martial Emperor strength of a strong person!”
Su Wake nodded in satisfaction at this.
Unlike the Dao of alchemy and weapon refining, the growth of a cultivator’s strength was cumulative over time, and it was impossible to make a gold level professional have the strength of a Heavenly King in a short period of time.
However, the talisman path was different, even if it was a gold level professional, as long as it had a sixth level offensive talisman, as long as it was used properly, it even had the ability to kill a Heavenly King level professional!
But the disadvantage is also very obvious, the talisman is almost disposable, even if it is a high-grade talisman, it can only be used a few times.
”Once this talisman is released, I’m afraid that the price on the market won’t be low …… or even more lucrative than pills!”
”But this simulation is just a test, on the talisman one only need to be shallow, after that then try the cultivation of the gathering spirit formation, five elements formation path it ……”
Su woke up thinking so, his eyes looking towards the simulation panel.
[In the fourth year, you will count all the pills you have accumulated over the years, totaling about 250,000 pills].
[After that, you disguised yourself and restrained your breath to shield your own heavenly chances, and went to find Lu Yuanwu, and gave him all of these pills, hoping to strengthen the Great Xia military, as well as the strength of the human race in the Demon Suppression Pass.]
[After doing all of this, you rejoined the Advent Sect.]
[On the days of hibernation over the years, you observed the power of thunder each time, hoping to comprehend a trace of the Origin of Force from the Thunder Avenue.]
[With several attempts, you vaguely touched some of the fur of the Origin of Force ……]
You are a little happy about this, but you remain unassuming and maintain your annual comprehension of the Origin of Force on the Day of the Sting, while practicing the Way of the Talisman on weekdays.
In the fifth year, as your understanding of the way of talisman became more and more profound, you were already able to make fourth-order talismans.
[You have successfully elevated the refinement of the second-order talisman, the Spirit Gathering Talisman, to the point of completion.
[The Spirit Gathering Talisman is a talisman that can quickly gather spiritual energy and restore a cultivator’s own spiritual energy.]
[You found that the principle of the Spirit Gathering Talisman is somewhat similar to that of setting up a miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, perhaps the Five Elements Realist was inspired by this talisman in the first place]]
[At the same time, during the time you have been lurking in the Adventist Church, you have also made friends with all the Elders and Protectors, and you have been eating meat and drinking wine every day.
[In the process of communicating with these Elders and Protectors, you also gradually understood the hierarchy within the Adventist Church, which is stricter than you imagined.]
From the ordinary congregation to the Elder Protectors, they are only able to collect tasks and earn contribution points, except for the Elder Protectors who are relatively free.
[But both the ordinary congregation and the Protectors know very little about why they have to do this mission and the reason behind it.] [This also means that even the Protectors know very little about the mission.
[This also means that even the Protector knows nothing about the Adventist Church’s most central secret.]
[Knowing this, a plan has risen in your mind.] [That is, to find a way to step into the ranks of the Advent Cult.]
That is, to find a way to get to the top, that is, to become a faction leader of the Adventist Church!
Because only by becoming a faction leader can you truly access the core secrets of the Adventist Church.
The thing that bothers you is that the positions of the three main faction leaders have been filled, and the only leader of the Conservative Faction that you suspect has always been the Dragon Guardian.
[And want to be among the faction leaders, there is only one way …… that is to find a way to kill one of the leaders!
[In this regard, you know that you can not be in a hurry, you must quietly wait for the opportunity, otherwise once the cloven foot. The only way to do this is to find a way to take out one of the leaders.
So, in the quiet waiting, another two years have passed.
[In the seventh year, your study of the way of talismans has advanced even further, and you have been able to refine fifth-order talismans.] [So, in the midst of waiting quietly, another two years pass.
[A Grandmaster ranked professional, after activating a fifth rank talisman, will be able to even battle a Heavenly King ranked professional in a short period of time.]]
[Successfully refining fifth-order talismans, but your study of the way of talismans is still at the introductory level, but not far from minor success.]]
[You have a suspicion in your mind that successfully refining a sixth-order talisman might be enough to bring your understanding of the Way of the Talisman to the level of minor accomplishment!
[But you don’t intend to further study talismans, because at this point your talisman attainments are already sufficient, and you intend to start experimenting with miniature Spirit Gathering Arrays.] [In the eighth year, you continue to be quiet.
[In the eighth year, you continued to quietly wait for an opportunity, not only enlisting a large number of loyal fanboys in the Advent Sect, but also attempting to elevate your status and power within the Advent Sect.]]
[You provided Luo Shujing with more elixirs such as the Concentration Elixir, hoping to enhance Luo Shujing’s strength.]
[And Luo Shujing lived up to her name, practicing diligently every day, and with your help, in just eight years, she stepped into the mid Legend stage.]
[In this year, your comprehension of the Origin of Force went even further.]
[In the ninth year, you began to read through the Five Elements Sect’s Five Elements Formation Dao.]
[You discovered that the Five Element Formation Dao was different from the Basic Formation Dao that you had learned before, and that its comprehension of the Formation Dao favored the rational use of the Five Elemental Auras.]
[Because you already had a certain foundation in the Dao of Formation, you made rapid progress when practicing the Five Elemental Formation Dao.] [As such, another two years passed.
[Thus, another two years passed.]
[In the eleventh year, you have also long been initiated into the cultivation of the Five Element Formation Dao, and are able to set up some composite Five Element Formations.] [At this point, your knowledge of talismans and talismans has been improved.
[At this time, you have comprehended the way of talismans, the way of formations, and the way of spiritual qi, and have reached the basic conditions for learning miniature Spirit Gathering Formations.]]
[And so, you intend to formally begin seal-engraving miniature Spirit Gathering Formations.]
You enter the Spirit Field Cave and take out a large carp from the pond, and then take out the ink and brush needed to carve the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation.
[Holding the carp in your hands, you pacify it with your spiritual energy, and then carefully experience the flow of spiritual qi within the carp.] [After a few minutes, the spiritual qi flows within the carp.] [You enter the Spiritual Field Cave.
After a few minutes, you know the route of every ounce of spiritual qi in the carp’s body like the back of your hand. …… Then, you slowly open your eyes!
[After that, the divine sense of the pen and the pen and the pen …… into the subtle realm is perfectly utilized at this moment.]
[You carefully and cautiously catalyzed your spiritual energy, and carved a small formation on the body of the spirit carp.]
[But when the formation was halfway through the arrangement, you finally made a slight mistake, coupled with the spirit carp’s chaotic movements, resulting in an unstable aura …… This tail of spirit carp burst open in your palm.]
[Another failure in setting up a miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, but you are not surprised by this.]
Compared to before, your seal engraving of the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation has matured a lot, so you just need to keep trying, and you will be able to succeed after all.
[So, you seal the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation on top of the Spirit Carp every day, and another year passes].
In the real world, Su Wake nodded slightly when he saw this and sighed:
”Sure enough, the Miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, although nominally a formation, is actually a collection of the Dao of Formation, Talisman, and the Dao of Spirit Qi, and it is necessary to unite the three paths in order to be able to seal seal a good enough Spirit Gathering Formation ah!”
Su Wake was looking forward to the future development of the Spirit Gathering Formation.
”There is also the Way of the Puppet as well …… so looking at practicing the three paths at the same time, it seems to be not bad, and will be able to play a role in many directions in the future!”
After a pause, Su woke up and thought with a bit of a headache:
”However, the volume of this Advent Sect is still a bit more than I expected …… Wanting to become a faction leader, I’m afraid that I still need to secretly push the envelope a bit!”
Eyes looked towards the simulation panel.
[In the twelfth year, you have finally succeeded in laying out a miniature Spirit Gathering Formation on the Spirit Carp.]
[According to the division of the Manmu Realist, this miniature Spirit Gathering Formation is only of the lowest order, belonging to the basic formations.]
[You hold the Spirit Carp that has successfully inscribed the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation in your hands, and after careful observation, you realize that the speed at which this aura gathers is not very fast, roughly equivalent to the cultivation speed of a cultivator with the first five elemental miscellaneous spirit roots, and not even considered strong amongst the five elemental miscellaneous spirit roots].
[Based on your constant measurements, you cite a vivid analogy.]
[The base cultivation speed of you who possesses a wood and fire dual system Mutant Heavenly Spirit Root, plus a Mutant Thunder Spirit Root, is around one hundred and fifty ranks.]
[Whereas the cultivation speed of an ordinary Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator is one hundred ranks.]
[True Spirit Root is fifty ranks! Dual, triple, and quadruple miscellaneous spirit roots in decreasing order ……]
[The lowest five lineage miscellaneous spirit roots, the cultivation speed fluctuates between about 0.8 to 1.5 ranks.]
[And this miniature Spirit Gathering Array is able to increase a cultivator’s cultivation speed by about 0.5 levels as long as it is successfully sealed.] [For this speed, you are not sure if it is the same as the speed of a cultivator’s cultivation.
[For this speed, you were not very satisfied, because such a weak increase would be almost useless to you.]
[So, you decided to further study the seal engraving of the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation.]
In the thirteenth year, you further expanded the size of the spirit carp in the pond, and the number of spirit carp in the pond was almost about ten thousand.
[You tried to carve miniature spirit gathering formations every day, and the success rate gradually increased from 10% to about 50%.] [In the 14th year, you tried to carve miniature spirit gathering formations in your spiritual field.
In the 14th year, you already have more than 6,000 spirit carp with miniature spirit gathering formations in the pond of your spiritual field cave.
On this day, you felt that the number of Spirit Carp was already sufficient, so you decided to further experiment with the arrangement of the Miniature Spirit Gathering Formation.
You took out one of the carp and placed it in your palm, carefully observing the operation of the spiritual qi therein.
After that, you took out a spirit pen and dipped it in spirit ink, then modified the palm-sized miniature Spirit Gathering Formation on the back of the carp, wanting to further enhance the power of the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation.
[Boom! A few minutes later, unsurprisingly, you failed, and this Spirit Carp in your hand was blown up into a braised carp.]
[You were not discouraged, but instead took out another Spirit Carp and prepared to try again.] [You were not discouraged, but instead took out another Spirit Carp and prepared to try again.] [You were not discouraged.
Months passed, and the number of dead carp in your hands was nearly a thousand.
One day, you were so blessed that you began to make changes to the spirit gathering formation on the back of the carp.
After a quarter of an hour, you stopped writing, and the formation on the back of the carp had changed dramatically.
[It’s still at the level of a first-order miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, but compared to before, this formation has been improved too much!
[You experiment with its efficiency in absorbing Spirit Qi, and are surprised to find that the speed at which the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation operates has nearly doubled.]]
[From the original 0.5 levels, it has directly increased to one level.]
[This is almost equivalent to the efficiency of an ordinary Five Elements Heterogeneous Spirit Root cultivator who cultivates 24 hours a day without stopping!
Seeing this, Su Wake couldn’t help but feel joy in his eyes and muttered:
”Finally, it worked!”
”A mere first-order miniature Spirit Gathering Array is equivalent to the cultivation speed of a five-element Heterogeneous Spirit Root cultivator……. Wouldn’t this be awesome if it were to reach a high order?”
What made Su Wake feel most concerned.
It was actually that this Miniature Spirit Gathering Array was activated 24 hours a day, as long as there was aura around, the Miniature Spirit Gathering Array could automatically cultivate.
This was the equivalent of gaining hanging experience, the kind that could stack buffs!
”Not bad, after that, it’s time to try out some more advanced Miniature Spirit Gathering Array crafting ……”
Thinking so, Su Wake’s gaze looked towards the simulation panel.
[In the next few months, you remodel all of the first-order miniature Spirit Gathering Arrays on these Spirit Carps.]
[Several months later, you obtained 5,000 Spirit Carp with excellent first-order miniature Spirit Gathering Arrays engraved on their backs.]
In the fifteenth year, you were ready to try your hand at second-order miniature Spirit Gathering Formations.
After several months, the number of spirit carp that died in your hands was already more than a thousand.
After several months of research, the number of dead carp in your hands has reached more than a thousand.] [And after your continuous attempts, you finally succeeded in sealing the first second-order miniature Spirit Gathering Formation.]
According to your measurements, a second-order miniature Spirit Gathering Formation is equivalent to three cultivation levels.
[In other words, the second-stage miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, when engraved on a cultivator’s body, can allow him to passively have a cultivation speed close to that of a cultivator with a four-lineage Spirit Root. ……]
[At the same time, you have also found that between the grades of each order of miniature Spirit Gathering Formation, there are two grades, ordinary and excellent.]]
[According to your speculation, a second stage miniature spirit gathering array that is further perfected would be able to reach a second stage excellent grade, and the speed of aura would reach close to five grades! This is almost the pinnacle of the qualifications of a four lineage miscellaneous spirit root cultivator.]]
[One day, just as you were about to continue researching the path of advancement for the Miniature Spirit Gathering Array, you suddenly received an important task.]]
[The specific requirements of the mission, that is to go to the Zhen Demon Pass to assassinate a Legendary Professional ……]
[And those traveling with you on this mission not only include the current leader of the Nature Faction, a peak Legendary powerhouse, but also four Legendary-level Protectors, including you and Luo Shufeng]]
[Upon receiving this mission, you instantly realized that an excellent opportunity to get rid of the leader of the Nature Faction has come!
