Chapter 374 373 Pinch a Rat
Seeing "myself" in a strange place seems to be a standard feature in many expeditions.
Apart from other things, many caves or tombs will have such mechanisms or formations set up in order to make the monks suspicious.
Sometimes when you are suspicious, the decisions you make will become less rational.
But Song He is not afraid.
The body of Tao is the self, and external objects are just external objects.
There must be a reason for this sudden appearance, perhaps it is a very important clue.
After a brief surprise, he stared at himself outside the gray-blue shield, his eyes stayed in the other's eyes, trying to read something from the twinkling starlight.
The other party also looked at him fearlessly, the starlight in his eyes was bright and dark, and special runes flashed from time to time. The simple lines intertwined to form the posture of a... mouse.
"..."
"Mouse?"
At this moment, Song He's heart moved.
He deduced inside the Mi Shen Tree, reproducing and sorting out the starlight lines, and as the lines took shape, it seemed to become a little dark around it.
But at the same time as the darkness, there was also a rising Yang energy.
It was obviously a sneaky mouse, but it inexplicably had a solemn and dignified posture.
At the same time, there was a feeling of time passing.
There were meteors and night around the mouse, changing.
The power of the cosmic light in the Mishen Tree was vaguely attracted by it and began to flow here.
He immediately understood what it was.
"Zi Rat, this is the Zi Rat in the twelve earthly branches."
He discovered the mystery of this mouse, but the "self" outside was gradually disappearing, but the pattern had not been completely replicated.
"Disappear once discovered, tsk."
This discovery made him speed up quickly, but this kind of star pattern involving time was originally very complicated, and he was in a hurry to draw it, and the more anxious he was, the more urgent it became.
Even if he had suppressed his emotions, maintained absolute restraint and calmness, it still didn't work-at this moment, he knew that he was in the same situation as Yuan Xi just now.
I just don't know what Yuan Xi saw, is it the same as him?
Fortunately, he is different from Yuan Xi. Both his spiritual awareness and consciousness are stronger than Yuan Xi, and he has reliable teammates.
"Fellow Daoist Song?"
Yi Chen found that Song He was a little bit wrong. He flicked his finger on the long sword and waved it around.
"Clang!"
The cold light was accompanied by the crisp sound of the sword.
It went straight into the sea of consciousness and made people feel refreshed.
It was thanks to this sword sound that Song He finally copied all the complicated patterns in his eyes before he disappeared outside.
"Huh." Song He breathed a sigh of relief.
He bowed to Yi Chen: "Thank you for your help!"
The latter said indifferently: "Sincere cooperation, it's a matter of convenience. But what did you see just now?"
The sword cultivator was very concerned.
As a genius sword cultivator with sword spirit and sword bone, his perception of things is even stronger than some Tianjimen cultivators, but even he couldn't detect anything unusual outside.
This is a very troublesome thing for a sword cultivator.
They are not afraid of enemies, and they are not afraid of anyone in a fight, but they hate the eyes and conspiracies in secret.
Yuan Xi has fallen. If something happens to Song He again, he will know nothing, so he is eager to ask clearly.
"... I saw myself." Song He hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.
Now they are on the same boat, and there is no benefit in hiding it. Besides, he is upright and not afraid of what will be affected by speaking out.
Hearing this answer, Yi Chen and Gan Ye fell into deep thought.
Or the latter said thoughtfully: "It is said that the River of Universe Light belongs to an invisible and formless place, and many forces gather. Did Mr. Song see his future self?"
Song He shook his head: "I don't know this yet... There is too little information, so this matter will be postponed. How is Fellow Daoist Yuan Xi?"
"She fell into a demon barrier." Gan Ye gave the answer: "The inner demon entered the body, and I don't know what Mr. Yuan saw. Could it be that he saw himself like Mr. Song?"
This guess is possible.
But Song He was very skeptical.
The cultivators of Tianji Sect predict the secrets of heaven. What they see and hear on weekdays are bizarre things that ordinary people cannot imagine. If they can see themselves and are frightened to the point of being possessed... that's too exaggerated, right?
He thought about it and decided to put this matter aside for the time being. Since Yuan Xi was not awake, the most urgent thing was to quickly build the Starlight Mouse. That thing should be the key to breaking the deadlock.
So he said, "Both Taoist friends, take a break. I have an idea that may work, but it requires an absolutely quiet environment."
Yi Chen nodded, "Don't worry, Taoist friend. Taoist friend Ganye and I will never let anything affect you."
He shook the long sword in his hand.
Having such a sword cultivator around is indeed worry-free.
Ganye also echoed, "Donor Song, feel free to use your magical powers. I have something that is just right for this moment!"
He took off a string of Buddhist beads from his wrist and threw it directly on the ground. The beads took root as soon as they landed, and each bead turned into a lotus with different materials.
It was exactly the seven treasures of Buddhism, colorful and emitting a gentle yet vast spiritual pressure like the ocean.
Seven lotus flowers were in full bloom, with a palm-sized Buddha sitting inside.
They all looked solemn, put their hands together, and the sound of chanting in Sanskrit rang out, forming a golden cover that looked very reliable and solid.
"Seven Treasures Bead Chain... They are really willing to give it away."
Song He, who had not yet started to cast a spell, took a glance and thought that these guys really took out a lot of treasures. This Seven Treasures Bead Chain is also very famous.
Not only is the material pure seven treasures, but there are also seven heart relics of the half-step transformation realm as the core. If the seven beads are fully powerful, they can definitely beat the transformation realm.
With this thing, there is no need to worry about the barrier suddenly breaking when you are concentrating.
He sank his consciousness into the Mi Shen Tree with peace of mind.
The Starlight Mouse that he had just copied was standing quietly on the grass - it lacked a core, or a power source.
Because Song He could see its structure, simple but exquisite, the source should be a puppet core formation commonly used in the Yingxing Hall of Lingye Sect.
Although it looks simple, the power that constitutes it must be the starlight power unique to Song He, or Xing Ke.
Without the support of this spiritual power, it is almost impossible to depict it, and the possibility of imitation by outsiders is cut off from the root.
According to Song He's brief inspection, it can be determined that it lacks a formation core.
It stands to reason that it should be equipped with a puppet gem that provides souls and spirit stones for the puppet.
But... how can the rat provide souls?
This kind of invisible and intangible time, is it really necessary for him to catch a rat in the twelve zodiac signs?
It's hard for people to do this!
He was silent for a moment and chose to ask the Four Seasons Treasure Light Tree.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he could only seek help from outside.
As one of the twelve earthly branches, the rat originally represents time, and it also appeared in the River of Cosmic Light. This is too coincidental.
"Senior Four Times, is it possible for a rat to appear in the River of Universe Light?" He summoned his avatar directly, stood in front of the Four Times Treasure Light Tree and asked, describing what happened.
Obviously, the Four Times Treasure Light Tree has been paying attention to this side.
She immediately replied: "Although the River of Universe Light existed long before the birth of the human race, it is still affected by the human race.
Master, if you want to complete its core... you need to obtain the spirituality of the time of Zishi."
Song He frowned: "The spirituality of Zishi?"
He really didn't know much about this kind of thing involving time.
"If it is in the outside world, it is easy to obtain. You just need to wait quietly until Zishi and collect it with the secret method I gave you.
But in the time chaos of the River of Universe Light, unless..."
She hesitated at the end.
Song He's heart sank, but his voice was still calm:
"Unless what, just say it directly."
"Unless you divide the time in the Mishen Tree, you can take a look first and then make plans." The voice of the Four Times Treasure Light Tree was very helpless, and it handed the recorded jade slip to Song He.
"..."
Song He fell silent immediately.
Time division is not something that can be done casually, otherwise it would not have taken so long to accomplish.
But, the matter is here.
Not doing it is obviously not an option.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and then carefully checked the method given to him by the Four Seasons Treasure Light Tree.
An idea slowly emerged in his mind-maybe it is feasible.
Suddenly he asked: "Then if we only divide one time period, do you think it will work?
The day starts at half past midnight, and midnight is the beginning of the day. Starting from it, it should not affect the division of subsequent time periods, right?"
The Four Seasons Treasure Light Tree replied: "No, do you have any ideas?"
"Yeah." Song He cast his eyes on a spiritual plant in the distance and sighed deeply: "I didn't want to use it at first."
With a thought, he moved the spiritual plant in front of the Four Seasons Treasure Light Tree.
This is a very special spiritual plant.
It looks like a cloud of mist, but also like a soft mass of mud, still trembling and shaking, and is the kind of spiritual plant that attracts attention at first glance.
The Four-Season Treasure Light Tree recognized this spiritual plant and said in surprise:
"A fifth-level root of thick virtue and earth?"
"Well, it itself is the essence of the earth, and it can carry all kinds of power. I want to use it as a carrier of the rat."
Song He's eyes also fell on it.
The panel appears -
[Name]: Root of Thick Virtue and Earth
[Level]: Fifth-level lower grade
[Status]: Juvenile, growing (58%)
①. Root of Thick Virtue and Earth (Red·Exclusive to Thick Virtue and Earth): The rhizome of this spiritual plant can be used as a carrier of all substances. It will contain and accept all power, and change according to the shaping of external spiritual power.
The current upper limit of the power it can bear: late stage of transformation.
②. The opportunity to live (Red·Houde Sui Tugen exclusive): The rhizome of this spiritual plant can be continuously restored after being cut, and can be restored almost infinitely without affecting the foundation.
Current recovery power: 100%
"The carrier of the rat... I understand what you mean." The Four Seasons Treasure Light Tree suddenly realized.
The voice also became respectful.
"Please use it at will, master. I will dedicate the magic weapon and my own power to you without reservation."
As she said this, her branches and leaves trembled, and the leaf talisman flew out and fell into the hands of Song He's clone.
Song He took the leaf in his hand and sighed, "Fortunately, it has been integrated into the earth vein once, so it is not difficult to do it now."
His clone sat cross-legged, stretched out his hand to split and took a piece of Houde Sui Tugen, pinched it in his hand, and soon pinched out a lively little mouse.
Its name became Houde Sui Tugen (split) after leaving the main root, but the entry was still there.
Song He put the "transformation" entry and a strange jade pendant on it and took a deep breath.
It was really heartbreaking!
This jade pendant contains a little luck and merit power that he split with the luck technique, in order to ensure that the "transformation" entry with a probability can succeed at one time.
If it doesn't work this time, he will really lose a lot.
"Alas."
After doing all this, he put down the statue and held the leaf talisman in his palm.
He said in a deep voice: "Zi Shi is the beginning of the day, the farthest from the sun, but it has special yang energy and vitality.
Although I can't completely divide it, I should be able to imitate Zi Shi."
Accompanied by the consciousness of the Lord of the World, the sunlight in the sky disappeared in an instant, and the whole world became dark.
In a trance, the sound of water drops sounded.
"Tick~"
"Tick~"
"Tick~"
The sound is very regular.
All creatures in the world can hear this sound, and slowly fall asleep in this sound.
Darkness, darkness swept everything.
But this darkness is not absolutely dark, there are strands of vitality and yang energy gathering-they are heading towards the starlight mouse that Song He has drawn.
The so-called "believe in the power of belief." As Uncle Ji told Song He at that time, as the master of this world and the way of heaven, he believes what he thinks.
At this moment, he thinks this is "Zi Shi".
So the whole world tacitly accepted that it was midnight. The leaf talisman held by his clone exuded the power of combing the power of the universe light, mixed with the power of the universe light of the four-season treasure light tree and her root veins, and spread to the whole world.
This is the law, this is the rule.
The starlight mouse that was infused with the power of the universe light, the special yang energy and the vitality seemed to have life, and there was a touch of lively light in its small eyes.
At this moment, Song He seized the opportunity, quickly displayed his magical powers, opened his mouth and blew a breath-
"Hu!"
A sudden wind swept the whole world, blowing the lake, shaking the branches, and finally... getting smaller and smaller, like a thorn, piercing the starlight mouse's butt.
"Chijijiji!"
The starlight mouse seemed to be stung, and it took a step and ran at once.
But the more it ran, the more elegant the starlight lines on its body became, like a streamer extending from its body.
The starlight mouse ran in the sky, like a meteor, becoming brighter and brighter.
It ran around the world, and finally went into the rat statue made of Houde Sui soil in Song He's hand.
The rat statue was shaking wildly, absorbing the surrounding spiritual power and the power of the universe. The entries on the panel were also shaking, and there were even signs of garbled characters.
It was forming entries, and it was vaguely visible that it was... rat?
This change lasted for a while.
Finally, it calmed down.
After a short period of stillness, the statue suddenly took steps, carefully climbed onto Song He's body, and then stood up, with a gleam of light in its eyes. (End of this chapter)
