Chapter 14: Refining the Beggar's Immortal Palace
There were more than two hundred spiritual silkworm pupae to eat with the rice, and Fang Chen showed off a whole pot of spiritual rice.
"My appetite is almost as big as a pig, hahaha."
After realizing this, he smiled self-deprecatingly and said.
However, before he could say anything else, a spiritual energy began to rush through his body.
This is the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual rice and spiritual silkworm pupae.
Fang Chen had anticipated this and immediately sat cross-legged, ready to use this spiritual energy to practice.
The majestic spiritual energy is as unruly as a wild horse that has broken free from its reins. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot control it.
However, Fang Chen was not ordinary. When his spiritual thoughts entered his body, the surging spiritual energy instantly became obedient like a mouse meeting a cat. It was transformed into the five elements of magic power under his control and rushed towards the seventh pair of acupoints of the Shaoyin Meridian of Hand.
After a while, the pair of acupoints were connected.
Soon after, the eighth pair was also successfully connected.
However, by this time, the power of the spiritual energy had weakened, and the five elements of magic power that was subsequently transformed also lost its previous indomitable momentum, and failed to continue to open up the ninth pair of acupoints, allowing Fang Chen to break through to the third level of Qi training.
Fang Chen was not disappointed about this.
Being able to open up two pairs of acupoints has greatly accelerated his cultivation speed, so there is no need to be greedy for more.
"No wonder cultivators often talk about money, companions, and the land, and put money first. With external aids, the cultivation speed is much faster than simply absorbing spiritual energy."
Fang Chen, who had just finished his practice, was also somewhat surprised, and once again realized the importance of practice resources to cultivators.
It is true that the spiritual energy in his courtyard is rich, but the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy is limited, which slows down the speed of cultivation.
After eating the spiritual rice and spiritual silkworm pupae, a large amount of spiritual energy will directly burst out in the body and can be directly converted into magic power. Without the step of absorbing spiritual energy, the practice will naturally make rapid progress.
Having satisfied his appetite, improved his cultivation a little, and restored his magic power to full strength, Fang Chen was not idle after the surprise. He returned to the kitchen and took out the six rolls of spiritual silk.
"You can try to refine the Beggar's Edition Immortal Mansion now."
The materials have been prepared. Although they are not the ideal silk that contains both the five elements and spatial attributes, they barely meet the requirements.
What's more, Fang Chen had never expected to be able to refine a perfect beggar's version of the Immortal Palace in one go. These slightly inferior materials were just right for practicing.
In fact, before this, Fang Chen had refined spirit beast bags many times using ordinary cloth.
It's the worst type with only one cubic space.
Although it was basically useless, it allowed Fang Chen to become familiar with the process of refining the spirit beast bag.
The beggar version of the immortal palace he envisioned was based on the spirit beast bag, so this step was necessary.
And now he has more novel ideas.
Fang Chen believed that a spirit beast bag with the Five Elements circulation would be one step closer to the so-called Immortal Palace. When he purchased the Five Elements Spirit Silkworm, he simply wanted to make a fuss about the refining materials.
Now it seems that there are areas that can be improved in the design of the restrictions on the spirit beast bag.
The function of the prohibition on the spirit beast bag is to open up a stable space. If it is engraved on a spirit material with spatial attributes, the volume of the opened space will be larger and more stable.
Fang Chen was planning to draw the runes of the Five Elements Planting Spell Talisman on the Five Elements Silk and surround the restriction on the spirit beast bag.
Realize the five elements cycle from two aspects: materials and runes.
This is not something fantastic. In fact, the combination of talismans and magical tools is not uncommon in the world of cultivation.
For example, the Five Elements Talismans record the talismans of Feiyun Sect, which are talismans in the form of magical instruments.
The real difficulty lies in how to combine the runes of the Five Elements Planting Spell Talisman with the restrictions of the spirit beast bag, rather than simply juxtaposing them.
That would be meaningless to Fang Chen. So he had also conducted relevant research in recent days. Just now, when he personally made the talisman, he realized that the runes and restrictions of the talisman were closely related to mathematics, and he instantly had an idea.
Fang Chen took out the Basics of Formation, the Basics of Refining Equipment, and the Five Elements Talismans from his storage bag. He released his spiritual thoughts and probed into them at the same time, checking the contents in coordination with each other.
He had studied the three jade slips individually, but at that time he could neither make talismans nor refine magical instruments, nor had he set up formations, so his understanding was not profound.
Now that he has successfully refined a spirit beast bag and become a talisman maker with a 30% success rate, it is natural that he has new insights when reading this.
What's more, the contents recorded on the three jade slips can indeed verify each other, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of these things.
"It turns out that the restriction is just a simplified and miniaturized formation..."
"The runes of the talisman are also some variation of the formation..."
"So the connection method between the formations should also be applicable to prohibitions and talismans and runes..."
Soon, Fang Chen found a method that was very likely to succeed.
He did not hesitate any longer and began to refine the Beggar Version Immortal Palace.
The first step is to weave the spiritual silk into cloth.
This is not difficult. Before the original owner's mother broke through the fourth level of Qi training, she was a weaver hired by Lianyunfang City, specializing in weaving. Fang Chen's home had a weaving machine.
Based on the original owner's memory, he also knew how to operate it.
After working for an entire afternoon, I finally got a piece of cloth with six colors woven together, about one-fifth of a square meter.
It’s not a lot. After all, Fang Chen currently has only thirty or forty of each type of spiritual silkworms, so it is impossible to produce a huge amount of cloth.
However, what he wanted to refine was a spirit beast bag, so the size of the cloth was not a high requirement.
What's more, such a large piece of cloth is more than enough to refine a spirit beast bag.
When weaving the cloth just now, Fang Chen also mixed six kinds of silk with different properties according to a certain pattern based on his new insights.
The next step is to proceed to the second step, which is to make the woven cloth into the shape of a spirit beast bag.
This was also not a problem for Fang Chen and he completed it quickly.
The third step is the most critical one, which is to engrave the restriction. Without the restriction, the magic weapon is just a fire stick made of better materials and will not be of much use.
Fortunately, there is one advantage to refining equipment, that is, after the restriction engraving fails, the magic weapon will not disappear. You can try to engrave it again until you succeed.
However, every failure will cause a certain degree of damage to the material. If the number of engraving failures increases, the material will be directly damaged.
In pursuit of perfection, Fang Chen had to ensure that he could engrave successfully in one try.
Therefore, he took a deep breath, emptied his mind, first recalled in his mind the process of engraving the restriction before, and then mobilized his magic power to engrave the restriction on the spirit beast bag woven from spirit silk.
No matter what level of spirit beast bag it is, the core restriction is the same space isolation restriction, which can form an independent space bubble of one cubic meter to store various items.
If it is a storage bag, a space blockade restriction must be added to completely isolate this space bubble from the outside world, making the stored items more secretive and unlikely to be detected by outsiders.
Since he had successfully refined many spirit beast bags in the past two months, Fang Chen was familiar with the space isolation restrictions. The whole process was completed smoothly without any hindrance.
"call--"
He heaved a sigh of relief after successfully carving the ban, but the refining of the Beggar Version Immortal Palace was not yet finished.
He also needs to engrave the runes of the Five Elements Planting Spell Talisman.
