Chapter 233 Five-Layered Pagoda, the Magical Use of the Power of Incense
[The young monster did not hesitate and decisively refused your rescue and the persuasion of other monsters. 】
[Just when you are frowning, it reveals another thing to you...]
[Actually, there is another way to rescue them! 】
[It is not the only member of the Hua Lao clan still alive today, there is also his grandfather. 】
[Grandpa Hua Piao is extremely powerful and is the leader of the Slippery Ghost Clan. 】
[If Lord Goddess can find its grandfather, he can easily rescue them. 】
[You can’t help but ask, where is its grandfather now? 】
['Original Juvenile Huaxiao' smiled and said frankly that its grandfather is now suppressed in the 'Wuzhi Shrine'. If you can go to the 'Wuzhi Shrine' to rescue its grandfather, it will be equivalent to rescuing them all. Little monster. 】
Lin Xun's face was full of dark lines.
What kind of matryoshka plot is this?
He had a vague expectation that there was a connection between Faxiang Temple and Wuji Shrine.
But I didn't expect that the strategy process would be like this. Save the grandfather first and then the grandson?
Joining the weaker oath camp will indeed increase the difficulty of the game.
[The young monster also felt that its request was a bit unreasonable, so he quickly opened his mouth and took out a colorful scale from under his tongue. 】
[It will hand you this handful of saliva-covered scales. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Mirage Colorful Scales’ (prop)! 】
[The young monster will explain to you that the five-story pagoda behind the Golden Hall is a treasured training ground for the Hua Lao clan. 】
[However, the New God believers do not understand the mystery and only regard the pagoda as a place to store scriptures. 】
[Lord Goddess can climb to the top of the five-layer pagoda and use this scale to quickly cultivate the power of Long Yin. 】
Lin Xun raised his eyebrows and opened the inventory to check.
[‘Mirage colorful scales’ (props): Dragon scales contain a little mirage, and the colorful colors on their surfaces are transformed by mirage. 】
[When this item is used at a specific location, the remaining mirage in the scales will evaporate. If you meditate and practice in the mirage, you can increase the level of 'Er Falling Dragon Yin'. Current number of uses remaining: 3/3】
['Original Juvenile Slider' continues to tell that when the mirage energy in the 'Miracle Dragon's Colorful Scales' was exhausted, it was enshrined in front of the statue of the 'Chaos Source Dragon' and burning incense in worship could restore the mirage energy in it. . 】
[It’s just that this divine gift no longer appears after the Dragon God’s defeat, and now it cannot be restored after exhausting the mirage energy in the scales...]
"It's a pity. It would be nice if this thing wasn't a consumable..."
Lin Xun sighed a little, but the pre-reward for the rescue mission was reasonable, but he didn't know what reward he would get for successfully rescuing Hua Piao's grandfather.
[You accept the scales and promise to go to the ‘Wuzhi Shrine’ to explore. As for whether you can save its grandfather, you can only do your best. 】
[Under the expectant eyes of a bunch of little monsters, you waved goodbye to them and left the golden hall...]
[You go around the golden hall, and behind the main hall is a five-story pagoda. 】
[The five-story pagoda is the product of Sakuraluo learning to imitate the architecture of the Zhuchi Empire. It changed from the original vigorous and majestic style to the slender and graceful Japanese style of Sakuraluo. 】
[Therefore, the five-story pagoda is not very tall. The five-story pagoda is only one line higher than the Jintang. 】
[You stride to the pagoda, and sure enough, there is still a warning sign erected at the entrance to the bottom floor of the pagoda. 】
[The general meaning of the warning is: Do not read the scriptures hidden in the pagoda to avoid being deceived by the evil words of the 'evil god'. Violators will be severely punished...]
[You cross the warning sign, push open the bottom door of the pagoda, and enter...]
[The first floor of the pagoda is surrounded by bookshelves and has a large collection of books. However, it does not have the fragrance of ink as you might imagine, but instead exudes the smell of decaying books. 】
[The first floor is called the 'Dragon Tibetan Layer'. I hurriedly scanned the scriptures and saw the 'Dragon Gate Sutra', 'Long Xiang Sutra', 'Long Hua Zhen Lun', 'Long Shuo Sutra of Infinite Life' and so on. 】
【Do you want to search among them? 】
Lin Xun's eyes lit up, it was time to hunt for treasure again.
He quickly pressed 'yes'.
【searching……】
[You find a thin bookmark in the gap of the bookshelf. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Invasion Bookmark’*1]
【searching……】
【……】
[You find a valuable ancient painting on the top of the bookshelf. 】
[You obtained the ‘Two Dragons Playing with Pearls’ (scrap product)! 】
【searching……】
【……】
[You find a secret book of witchcraft at the bottom of the bookshelf. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Magic and the Art of Change’ (Exquisite + Level)! 】
【searching……】
【……】
[You no longer find valuable items. 】
Lin Xun opened the inventory to check.
The invasion bookmark is so familiar that I just skip it.
I was going to skip the newly acquired piece of junk "Two Dragons Playing with Pearls", but suddenly I realized that this thing was not a piece of junk.
[‘Two Dragons Playing with Pearls’ (scrap): An antique ink painting depicting two real dragons playing with pearls. Selling this item to a pawnbroker will grant you some Spirituality. 】
"Tsk, I haven't been to the Fish Market for a long time. I don't know if the goods at the pawn shop have been updated."
[‘Magic: The Art of Transformation’ (Excellent + Level): The Art of Transformation is the simplest and most difficult technique among the magic arts. Since it is extremely easy to get started, this is a compulsory technique for every monster. However, due to the difficulty of mastering it, apart from the monsters whose true bodies are very similar to humans, there are only a few monsters that can completely change their alien appearance into human appearance. 】
[Using this skill will transform part of the alien form into a human appearance according to the number of layers of 'Er Fallen Dragon Yin'. 】
[This skill can only be learned by monsters. 】
"The skills are good, but the quality is too low."
Lin Xun shook his head, not in a hurry to learn skills immediately.
He put away the skill book and walked towards the second floor of the pagoda.
[You follow the wooden stairs to the second floor of the pagoda...]
[The second floor of the pagoda is called the ‘Tianlong Layer’. The scene is the same as the first floor. There are still countless books, but it is slightly smaller than the first floor. 】
【Do you want to search among them? 】
"Could it be that all the upper floors of the pagoda are like this?"
Lin Xun began to search with doubts.
After searching the second floor, he climbed up to the third floor, and the same was true for the third floor of the pagoda.
After searching the two floors, I only got a few bookmarks and calligraphy and paintings that could be sold for money.
In addition, he also received a book of output skills called "Dark Magic: Demonic Fire Red Lotus".
It's just that this skill, like the art of change, is a very low-quality skill. The only thing worthy of praise is that it can enjoy the attribute bonus of 'E Fallen Dragon Yin'.
【……】
[You follow the wooden stairs and climb to the fourth floor of the pagoda...]
[The fourth floor of the pagoda is called the 'True Dragon Floor of the Pagoda'. The scene there is the same as the first floor, and there are still countless books. 】
[However, among them was an old man wearing a black kimono and holding a scripture in his hand, sitting cross-legged on a futon and concentrating on reading. 】
[The monocle on his face is particularly eye-catching. 】
[The 'librarian' saw someone coming, put down the scriptures in his hand, and had a kind smile on his face. 】
[As if by magic, he took out another futon and placed it beside him, gesturing for you to come forward and sit down to chat with him. 】
"Eh...that's weird."
What was strange to Lin Xun was not that he met the 'librarian' here, but that the librarian didn't take out an 'invasion bookmark' for him.
According to the usual procedure, after accepting the invasion bookmark, you will immediately encounter other apostles coming to deliver food.
This was the case twice before when I met the administrator in the chapter.
[The 'Librarian' seemed to see your doubts and explained to you gently that he is not that boring. For outstanding apostles who have upgraded their invasion authority, there is no need to use basic invasion battles as a test. 】
[You slowly walked to him and sat down cross-legged next to the old man. 】
[The 'librarian' will hand you the scripture in his hand...]
[You take it and take a look and find that it is a scripture called the 'Dragon Law Pursuit Sutra'. The scripture praises the great achievements of the descendants of the 'Chaos Source Dragon' in universal salvation. 】
[The old man smiled slightly and asked, is it interesting? 】
[Without waiting for your answer, he continued, each doomsday world has different scenery, and the source of doomsday in each world is also different, but only in terms of praising gods, each world can be unified. consistent. 】
[Ignorance is so cruel and pitiful...]
[The 'librarian' adjusted the monocle on his face and said with a kind smile, the apostle who is searching for the truth of the doomsday, are you willing to accept the special test from the administrator? 】
[If you successfully pass the test, you will not only be able to increase your invasion authority again, but you will also get a very rare bookmark. 】
A very rare bookmark?
Lin Xun couldn't help but think of the last 'sacred object bookmark'.
He used that bookmark to defeat another candidate for the twelfth disciple and seize a sacred object.
[You nodded and accepted the test without hesitation. 】
[The smile on the 'Librarian''s face becomes more kind. He stands up slowly and tells you that tomorrow night, he will be waiting for you in the lecture hall behind the five-story pagoda. As long as you are ready, you can go to the lecture hall to find him. . 】
[The old man silently recited a complex incantation and disappeared...]
"I don't know what the test is. I hope there won't be an unlucky incident like the last 'Cage to Detain the Stars'."
He searched the fourth floor of the pagoda and continued going up when he saw that there were no rewards.
[At the stairway leading to the fifth floor, there is a half-person-high fence with a warning: The fifth floor is still under renovation and is temporarily closed to the public. Do not enter. Violators will be severely punished! 】
[You ignored the warning, climbed over the fence, followed the wooden stairs, and climbed to the fifth floor of the pagoda. 】
[The fifth floor of the pagoda is called the 'treasure floor'. It is empty and there are no books placed there. 】
[There is only one huge book page floating in the air, exuding a glimmer of light. 】
[You found the remaining pages of the Book of Salvation - the 'rest pages'! 】
"...This resurrection point is really well hidden."
Lin Xun stepped forward and touched the page, setting this place as the resurrection point.
He is not worried about being trapped in Faxiang Temple by 'Guarding the Absolute Realm of the Ten Directions' after his resurrection. The pages of the book have a teleportation function, and at the worst, he can be teleported back to Longze Temple.
Use the recovery function of the resting book page to restore the president with kidney failure to a state of full vitality. Even if he fights the maid again tomorrow night, he will not be weak or weak.
Open the inventory and click on 'Miracle Colorful Scales'.
[Do you want to use the ‘Mirage Dragon’s Colorful Scales’? 】
[Using this prop will consume one use. Estimated meditation practice time: six hours]
"so long!"
Lin Xun also thought that after exploring the 'Faxiang Temple' tonight, he would go to the 'Wuzhi Shrine' to explore.
If he practices meditation here, after the practice is over, he can go directly back to Yixie Palace and do morning exercises with the two maids.
For a moment, he was a little confused.
Should we practice first or explore first?
After hesitating for a long time, he suddenly patted his forehead and remembered something.
Decisively click on the rest page and use the teleport function to return to 'Longze Temple'.
[Transmitting...]
【……】
[Transmission successful! 】
[The powerful wandering soul awakens in the guest house of the temple...]
[You are possessed by the body of the ‘original hermit seeking knowledge’! 】
[You push open the small door of the guest house and come to the courtyard...]
[It is already the zenith of the moon, and all the little monsters in training have already completed their training for the day and have gone back to their rooms to rest. 】
[You look at the residence on one side of the courtyard. Only two rooms are still lit with candles. 】
[One is the residence of the ‘August Master Uguki’, and the other is the residence of the ‘Teraji Shipwrecked Master’. 】
【Which room are you going to? 】
[You walk towards the residence of the 'Master of Ceremony, Uguki', and knock on the old firewood door. 】
[Soon, the firewood door opened wide, and the shirtless 'Original Majesty Master Uguki' came in. 】
[When it sees the Lord Goddess coming, its eyes light up, and it salutes and asks you, is the Lord Goddess here to practice magic? 】
[You nod slowly. 】
['The Majestic Master Niu Gui' smiled happily when he heard this and quickly pulled you into the room. 】
[The furnishings in the residence are simple. In addition to a bed and a table, there is also a wooden box and a weapons rack placed against the wall. 】
['The Master of Ceremonies, Ushiki', picked out a few simple scrolls from the box and spread them out on the table. 】
[The scroll is a picture scroll, which depicts various monsters performing spells. 】
[It will introduce you one by one. These magic spells are all unique spells carefully selected by it. Although they do not have the power to move mountains and seas, they each have their own wonderful uses. 】
[‘Magic: The art of looking into the air’ (rare + level), the power of incense required for practice (power of faith): 1000]
[‘Magic: The Art of Change’ (rare + level), the power of incense required for practice: 500]
[‘Magic: Midas Turning Stone into Gold’ (rare + level), the power of incense required for practice: 800]
[‘The art of sorcery and sound transmission’ (rare + level), the power of incense required for practice: 400]
[‘Magic: The finishing touch’ (rare + level), the power of incense required for practice: 700]
[You have offered three ‘fine purple incense’ sticks. The current power of the incense is: 1500]
Lin Xun slapped his thigh in annoyance.
"Damn, why did I only burn three incense sticks for the 'Chaos Source Dragon'?"
"If I just use all ten of them, wouldn't I have the power of 5,000 incense now?"
Although I haven't seen the specific effect of the skills, and the quality of the skills is not very high, just looking at the names of these magic spells, I know that the effectiveness of the skills is extraordinary.
For example, the art of looking for energy, turning stones into gold, etc.
Lin Xun suddenly thought, if the 'August Master Niu Gui' could learn skills here, what could the 'Sisi Shipwrecked Master' who still had a light on do.
He speculated that the power of incense could not only be used here, but also used by the 'shipwrecked mage'.
"Is it too late to burn incense for the 'Chaos Source Dragon'..."
Lin Xun felt like crying but had no tears left.
