Chapter 143 Rules

"It's just that the disciples of the same sect killed each other. It's normal for fathers and sons to shed blood, and brothers to kill each other." Wu Lu looked disapproving.

"Why did Brother Wu Lu suddenly have such a feeling?" Yuan Ming asked curiously.

"Haha, nothing, I suddenly thought of some past events. Speaking of which, where are you going, Brother Yuan? If you need me, don't be polite to me, just let me know." Wu Lu laughed, changed the subject, and said with a smile.

"Brother Wu Lu has a wide range of connections, and the people he made friends with before are also higher than me. I really want to trouble you with something." Yuan Ming was not polite and took over the conversation directly.

"Brother Yuan, you can say whatever you want. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to help." Wu Lu's expression froze slightly. I don't know if the other party didn't hear whether he was being polite or intentional, but he immediately smiled and said.

"Hehe, Brother Wu Lu, don't be nervous. I just want to ask if you know where to get spiritual materials related to ice attributes. The higher the quality, the better." Yuan Ming smiled and asked.

"Brother Yuan, it seems that you are going to refine a magical instrument! However, I, a newly-appointed disciple, cannot help you with such spiritual materials. If the Qingfeng Hall of the sect doesn't have it either, Brother Yuan can try his luck in the market outside." Wu Lu's expression changed, and he seemed to be relieved and said.

"Market?" Yuan Ming said in surprise.

"In fact, it is a trading place where various casual cultivators and some sect cultivators gather together. It is a bit like the Toad Valley before, but it is mixed with good and bad things. If you are lucky, you may be able to find the spiritual materials you want." Wu Lu explained.

"How can I find such a place?" Yuan Ming asked again.

"As far as I know, the nearest place to us is the Black Rock City Market. Isn't the White Deer Hill Alliance about to start? This can be regarded as a grand event held once every ten years by the five sects in our southern border and northern region. I guess it will be very lively there in the near future." Wu Lu said after thinking for a while.

"Brother Wulu is really knowledgeable. Thank you for telling me." Yuan Ming didn't expect that he asked the right person casually.

"Haha, this is just a small matter, not worth mentioning! To be honest, I just heard that people would look down on you if you go there with this amount of wealth. If you want to go, you should be careful on the road." Wulu said, and warned in a serious tone.

"Thank you for reminding me, I know it." Yuan Ming replied seriously.

After he asked Wulu about the location of Black Rock City, the two left separately.

...

After returning to the residence.

Yuan Ming closed the doors and windows, summoned the incense burner, lit a black incense, and inserted it into it.

Since he had made up his mind to treat the participation in the White Deer Hill Alliance as the top priority at the moment, he had to make good use of the next time and do everything possible to improve his strength.

In addition to trying to refine the Green Fish Sword into a real magic weapon, he was still full of expectations for the possession of the incense burner, and tried it every seven days.

As the smoke rose, Yuan Ming's vision began to blur, but his mind was unusually clear.

In his mind, he carefully recalled the face of the little emperor of Dajin, sketched out his voice, appearance and smile bit by bit, trying not to miss any details, and kept repeating a name in his heart: "Liu Tianming."

Liu Tianming, it was the name of the little emperor.

Since the "Mingyue Jue" technique was cultivated to the second level, Yuan Ming's soul power has also increased, and a large number of fragments of past memories have emerged in his mind one after another, but these fragments are still a bit messy and trivial, not complete memories.

Yuan Ming needs to spend time to sort out before he can connect these fragments.

It was in these memories that Yuan Ming saw his past experience of accompanying the little emperor and learned his name.

The next moment, his consciousness fell into darkness and then lit up again.

The light around was dim, and the air was filled with the fragrance of plants and trees. Yuan Ming's sight followed the host and saw only the open terrain in front, with dense vegetation growing everywhere.

In front of him, in an open space about 70 to 80 meters away, there stood a wooden puppet in full armor, as tall as a person, with a target hanging on his chest, and nothing within a few meters around him.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready, we can start." A shrill voice sounded from the side.

"Everyone stay away, I'm going to cast a spell." A familiar young voice sounded.

"Great, it worked!"

Yuan Ming was overjoyed. As he guessed, he once again possessed the little emperor.

The next moment, the little emperor had already taken a horse stance and began to chant the formula.

The opportunity was rare, Yuan Ming immediately calmed down and began to carefully feel the flow and changes of the mana in the little emperor's body.

Every time he had such an immersive and intuitive experience, it was a rare and precious treasure for him, enough to save him from many detours when he comprehended and mastered the burning and explosion technique.

The tip of the little emperor's outstretched finger lit up with fire, and the burning power gathered. A fist-sized fireball began to expand with tongues of fire, and soon it reached the size of a human head.

At the same time, the mana in the little emperor's dantian began to run out quickly.

The only difference from the last time was that before the mana was about to be cut off, the little emperor made a decisive decision and shouted: "Go."

The fireball broke away from his finger with a "whoosh" sound, flew forward, and instantly hit the wooden doll seven or eight feet away, hitting the target.

There was a "bang" sound.

The fierce flames shot up into the sky, and the armor on the wooden puppet exploded. Fragments of different sizes splashed around with countless sparks, and the puppet among them was shattered under the huge impact.

A strong airflow also exploded in the air, impacting in all directions.

The flowers and trees several feet away were affected, and they also fell in all directions with the exploding puppet as the center.

"What a strong power!" Yuan Ming was excited. The little emperor used up all his magic power to perform this burning and explosion technique, which was much more powerful than his own.

When the residual power dissipated, a large group of eunuchs and palace maids ran over from all directions, holding copper basins and wooden buckets in their hands, and put out the sparks splashing around.

"Good, good, good..." At this time, a high-five sound came from a distance, accompanied by three consecutive cheers.

The little emperor turned around after hearing the sound, and Yuan Ming's sight also looked behind him.

I saw a thin old Taoist priest wearing a purple gold Taoist robe with eight trigrams cloud pattern and a golden lotus crown on his head, stroking the three long beards on his chest, walking towards this side.

He didn't seem to be walking fast, but the two eunuchs following behind him were running breathlessly and couldn't keep up at all.

Yuan Ming recognized him at a glance. It was the imperial master, Taoist Yuhu, who taught the little emperor the "Nine Yuan Jue".

"Imperial Master." The little emperor laughed and shouted.

"Haha, your majesty is talented, diligent in practice, and has made rapid progress..." Taoist Yuhu stood in front of the little emperor and said.

"I am still far away, I hope the imperial master will give me some pointers." Although the little emperor said so, Yuan Ming could feel his inner joy and a little pride.

When Taoist Yuhu heard this, he looked hesitant, as if he really had something to say?

Yuan Ming was about to listen attentively, but before he could wait for Taoist Yuhu's answer, his consciousness sank and he fell into darkness.

When his soul returned to himself again, he looked at the incense burner in front of him, and his eyes were still full of excitement. It was not because of anything else, but because he had found an important rule of incense possession.

The incense possession was not completely random, but was closely related to his psychological state, or his thoughts.

Thinking back carefully, Yuan Ming first possessed the little emperor because he was in a difficult situation in the Ten Thousand Mountains at that time, and he was eager to cultivate magic power. The strong thoughts that naturally arose in his heart were like making a wish in his heart, and the incense burner fulfilled his wish and allowed him to obtain the "Nine Yuan Jue".

And then he possessed Wang Shun, the groom of the general's mansion, because of his own past and his longing for home. This was more like a subconscious pull, rather than an active guidance of the mind.

The few times he possessed after that were almost all on people in the general's mansion. That was because what he wanted in his subconscious mind did not change, so the place he wanted to go did not change, but the object of possession was not accurate.

The experience of possessing Wang Shun twice and the little emperor twice made Yuan Ming further guess some rules about possession.

However, the initial test failed.

This time, Yuan Ming's mind was firm, and his thoughts were all on the little emperor, and his mind was purer.

In addition, after practicing the second level of the Dark Moon Art, his memory was mostly restored. He not only remembered the name of the little emperor, but also remembered many memories related to him.

This may be the key to his ability to possess the little emperor again this time.

In addition, the black incense inserted in the incense burner should not only affect whether the possession can be successful, but also the duration of the possession and the effect of the possession.

At least when I used the three black incense sticks that came with the incense burner at the beginning, not only did it take a long time, but I could completely control the body of the person being possessed. I just don't know what changes the person being possessed will have at that time, and whether there will be some effects afterwards?

Of course, this is just the difference I can perceive at present. His intuition tells him that this mysterious incense burner and black incense probably have many secrets that I have not yet learned.

Especially its effect of repairing and warming the soul, not only does it make spirit beasts like Huo Chan'er love it, but even the silver cat Xiying wants to get close to it.

Soul cultivators are powerful and prone to backlash, but with the protection of this incense burner, it can be largely resolved. This strange and magical effect is a heaven-defying thing for soul cultivators like himself.

At this moment, Yuan Ming's mind is in a mess and he can't calm down.

He closed his eyes and urged the Dark Moon Art to resolve the fluctuations in his heart. After a full stick of incense, he finally suppressed these thoughts.

He opened his eyes, carefully held the incense burner in his hands, and began to slowly transfer magic power to it to help the Tai Chi pattern recover as soon as possible.
