Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1212 Talent
"Is there any news from His Majesty? It's really fast." Phaethon asked in surprise after hearing Zhu Xianxun's call, "So he is so talented? I heard that it was quite difficult for you to break through, and you were in seclusion for several months."

"Oh, yes, yes, you heard it right. Breaking through to the Heavenly Man level does require a complete transformation. That's it."

He whispered to Apollonia: "So does she know or not? Is it possible that she vaguely remembers now? What happened when we were soaking in the jar together?"

[I'm not a worm in her stomach, how do I know if she knows? Are you afraid that she cares about those powers? ]

"It's not about strength. She served as a furnace to help me refine the opportunity, and she doesn't owe me anything. It's just... just hanging out there together, it's really a bit..."

[Ah! I thought you didn't even exist! Turns out you still remember that she's a girl!]

"You're making fun of me, aren't you? Okay, okay, I'm embarrassed to tell her about this right now, so let's skip it for now."

Although he almost said it out loud many times, this layer of window paper has not been broken yet - after all, the fact of using Phaethon to make wine is really too "outrageous".

In other words, it wasn't that he couldn't accept Phaethon giving him his power as compensation - that was what he should do - but using the method of soaking it in wine, in a jar, was too "tonic" no matter how he thought about it. If possible, he hoped that Phaethon would never know about it.

The consensus between the two sides is best limited to "Phaethon squeezed out the power through some means", and that's enough.

But this involves another problem - the act of soaking in wine is both outrageous and reasonable, because it sounds very nutritious.

Shangluo had gathered many conditions to achieve such an ideal environment. Although Daozu had made great efforts and used quite powerful equipment for Shangluo to use, the "medicine" was found by Shangluo himself.

Even so, the advancement actually took several months.

Zhu Xianxin's retreat has been less than a month now, which is too fast.

It can even be said that this is simply ridiculously fast, so fast that even Shangluo, the "Qilin Son" who has made rapid progress in cultivation, feels it is fast.

"So why is that? I haven't seen how talented my senior brother is. What do you think, Phaethon?"

"I think there is a possibility." Phaethon paused, "Is it possible that his promotion is not complete?"

"Will there be such a thing?"

"Yes, yes. Take caterpillars for example. When a caterpillar is in the pupa, its nervous system will not change and its consciousness will not be interrupted, but during this process, its body structure will disintegrate and reorganize. In the pupa, some of the adult organs that were previously undeveloped and preserved in the form of a base will take the lead, the nerves and muscles will relocate, and the nutrients accumulated when it was a larva will be consumed."

"You mean, there's a chance he's turned into a chrysalis now?"

"It's very possible. If we compare cultivating immortals to metamorphosis, then the state of mortals can be seen as caterpillars, and immortals can be seen as butterflies. The intermediate state is the state of pupation. Some pupae still look like insects, and can even move."

"Well, if that's the case, then his phone call just now can be explained. Maybe he can't come back to court right now, so he asked me to keep looking after him for a while until he fully recovers - that would be troublesome. I'm very busy, so I don't have time to keep an eye on the affairs of the court."

Before he finished speaking, the phone rang again.

"Hmm? Senior brother. Ah, OK." After a brief exchange, Shangluo hung up the phone. "So, did he ask you for help again? He has turned into a pupa now, right?"

"He said he would come to my place in a while. He told me not to tell anyone. He would only see me and at most call someone I trusted."

"Eh? No way, he recovered so quickly? Does the court really have some magic trick? It's ok that he was promoted quickly, but after this breakthrough, he was able to come here to inspect alive and kicking right away? This is really amazing."

"Anyway, I'll just take care of you. But I'm also very busy right now."

The demon sword Jiangmen has been forged.

This is a true demon sword that was transformed from Taira Masakado's "story". Taira Masakado's resentment is completely contained in it, and his consciousness disappears with the disappearance of his head. It is truly pollution-free.

This convenient magic weapon at this time not only condensed the power of Taira no Masakado, but also the support of the Edo Shogunate and even the entire samurai regime. When he pulled it out, even the earth veins would be shaken.

Shangluo pulled out the magic sword, and the clouds in the sky suddenly began to change color. The seven-colored clouds gradually condensed into red, although it was not blood red, but similar to the bright red of the sunset, but the color tone between heaven and earth changed because of it. It became bleak, lonely, and dull.

When he put the knife away again, the clouds dispersed into the original auspicious clouds and mist.

"Is the reaction so intense?" Phaethon also looked up at the sky.

"It's not entirely because the sword is so powerful. It's mainly because we activated the earth veins around the world before. Now that the heaven and earth are connected, any huge fluctuations can be reflected in the cloud phase. However, it is right to use it to test the effect. This sword can indeed have a huge impact on the local earth veins."

[Shangluo, King Ao Zang is calling you. ]

"He probably saw it and brought it in."

Ao Zang's voice became more excited than before: "Shangluo! It's done, right?"

"Well, it's not a problem to bring Taira no Masakado under control. Although there are ley lines on top of them, they are just defeated generals, not that difficult to deal with."

"Good, good, good!" Ao Zang said happily, "It will be done soon! As long as we completely suppress the earth veins in Edo and restore it to its original state, Qianye's strange phenomenon can be solved."

"However, King Ao Zang, I am very curious - how did you know? Did you feel something? I mean, why do you know that I can definitely solve the problem?"

"Because as far as I know, there is probably only one person who has the ability to turn spiritual energy, earth veins, and other intangible things into tangible power."

"You mean the mirage?"

"Yes. Or, I should add some qualifications - on such a scale, there seems to be only one. I think it must be the mischief of the previously defected Mirage Princess that caused such a big incident. After I capture her, I will definitely discipline her strictly. Please rest assured, Lord Tian."
