Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Chapter 481: Innate cloud patterns, barriers to knowledge and vision, shape-shifting, and many restrictions
The difficulty of practicing the secret method gave Luo Yan a headache.

Nowadays, he is no longer troubled by contribution points. Instead, he is stumped by spiritual beings such as the Five Elements Essence.

Needless to say the rarity of these spiritual objects, there are many within the Five Elements Sect.

But the problem is that the exchange of these Five Elements essences has great restrictions.

Unless Luo Yan issued a task in the mission area, specifically to purchase the exchange shares from fellow monks who had not practiced the top secret method.

But when Luo Yan opened the mission area and saw that it was densely packed with such acquisition news, he gave up this plan instantly.

Not to mention the publishers of those tasks, they have increased the exchange price of the essence of the five elements several times, even more than ten times.

A disciple of the Five Elements Sect alone can only get a thousand drops of the essence of the Five Elements in ten years. To solve the gap of Luo Yan's hundreds of thousands of psychic particles, it is equivalent to a drop in the bucket.

And as time goes on, this gap will only get bigger.

Those who can become disciples of the Five Elements Sect are basically arrogant and confident. Who would be willing to give up the top secret method and not practice it, and instead practice only the superior secret method?

Unless they are monks who are born with supernatural spiritual roots, they will not care so much about the essence of the Five Elements.

But how many such disciples of the Five Elements Sect are there?
Therefore, if you want to obtain enough essence of the five elements through this method, it is almost impossible without certain connections and a large number of contribution points.

"No wonder Senior Brother Mu Qiu is so generous and doesn't care much about his contribution. It turns out that this is the problem."

It was only at this moment that Luo Yan finally understood that things like spiritual crystals and contribution points might be somewhat important in the eyes of the Five Elements Sect members.

But it's not that important.

Because many precious spiritual items cannot be exchanged at all.

For the direct disciples of the Five Elements Sect, if they are short of spiritual crystals and contribution points, they can directly trade the share of the Five Elements Essence for the next ten years with fellow monks and get a bunch of contribution points in an instant.

But these contribution points can only be used to purchase some of the most common heaven and earth spiritual objects, as well as various magical powers and secrets.

But the problem is that these scriptures of magical powers and secrets can only exist in one's mind after taking the oath, and cannot be taught to others at all.

In addition, many scriptures and secret techniques cannot be learned by themselves, so naturally few people will redeem them.

As for those very rare treasures, they can only be exchanged for the essence of the Five Elements!
The essence of the Five Elements is the universal currency recognized by everyone in the Five Elements Sect.

Because these heaven and earth spiritual beings are recognized even in those alien territories!
After all, for many great monks, things like spiritual crystals can only be used when the level of cultivation is still low.

After reaching a certain level, the spiritual crystals will naturally be eliminated.

At this time, the wonders of heaven and earth, such as the essence of the five elements, fairy crystals, etc., are the sources of currency recognized by all cultivators.

The more powerful practitioners are, the more accustomed they are to bartering, because there are really too few spiritual objects that can catch their eye.

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."

Luo Yan's eyes trembled, and he thought for a long time, but still couldn't find a solution.

Strictly speaking, the spirit of heaven and earth, such as the essence of the Five Elements, will not spread to the outside world at all.

Either under the Nine Netherlands of the Endless Abyss, or in the Fire Domain in the Earth's Core, or in the starry sky outside the domain.

No matter which one it is, it is not accessible through ordinary methods.

Luo Yan sighed. He didn't have enough of the essence of the Five Elements himself. How could he use it to trade with other fellow monks?

After thinking about this, his mind sank into the colorful jade tablets again.

"Fairy spirit, help me redeem the basic practice method of innate cloud patterns."

In an instant, the mustard seed hut was enveloped in a burst of shining rays of light, and then became extremely blazing.

Finally, there were bursts of soft moans.

The sound of "clack" and "clack" is endless, and there is an illusory air lingering around. The cloud patterns are intertwined layer by layer, forming the shape of white clouds one after another, which is very amazing.

These clouds were floating and white, giving Luo Yan a feeling of being in a fairyland.

It's like being in the clouds, surrounded by white.

A large amount of spiritual energy was exaggerated and kept coming here.

"Moire pattern."

There was a blazing blue light in Luo Yan's eyes, which was the chip recording the changes around him at full capacity.

'Wow! ', 'Wow! '.
It can be clearly seen that every cloud pattern carries a mysterious power, and the power of heaven and earth is drawn towards it.

In mid-air, countless lines intertwined, and the light bloomed slightly but was not very bright.

In Luo Yan's sight, these cloud patterns were beautiful, more like landscape paintings.

If the runes are compared to the unfamiliar and difficult-to-understand characters from another universe, the innate cloud pattern becomes a picture that carries the laws of this world.

Even if you can't understand it, you can still feel it.

The laws of heaven and earth are inherently mysterious and mysterious. Simply describing them with runes would naturally appear dull.

The innate cloud pattern is different. It can specifically outline the other side of the Taoist principles.

Like the softness of the law of water, it will be portrayed in the way of continuous drizzle and continuous falling.

At this point, the rune will only show the word rain.

There are mysteries inside that are hard to figure out.

It is also easy to understand mistakes and omissions.

"The higher-level rune information has been collected, and the most basic simulation model framework has begun to be built."

"Data generating"

"Start analysis."

"The innate cloud pattern has five categories: Bagua, Nine Palaces, Twelve Elephants, Thirty-six Stars, and Seventy-two Chen. The basic shape simulation changes are: 2239488 types."

"Estimated time required for all parsing: 8970240 hours."

Luo Yan felt frightened when he heard the chip's indifferent response.

Just the most basic morphological changes, these five types of innate cloud patterns can change into more than two million kinds, and the entire analysis time is more than a thousand years!

With today's chip computing power, it still takes such a long time, which shows that the many changes in this innate moiré pattern are really too profound.

At this point, Luo Yan even dared to be confident that even if he looked at the entire true spirit world, it would be difficult to find a creature that could completely study this kind of cloud pattern.

Because there are millions of basic morphological changes.

If it were a higher-level combined moiré pattern, how terrifying would the resulting changes be?

To say it is endless may seem a bit imprecise.

But at least ten thousand years of time is still needed.

In such a long period of time, if you still can't become an immortal, I'm afraid you have already become a handful of loess.

If it weren't for the fact that Five Elements Mountain was part of the immortal artifact, such a complete picture of the changes in cloud pattern would probably not have been passed down.

Don't look at these cloud patterns. They occupy a small space, even only ten feet in diameter.

But the innate cloud pattern is constantly changing. Every time you blink, hundreds of changes flash by.

For most monks, it is also the most basic innate cloud pattern, but everyone understands it differently.

A great monk in the sect once said that this is because everyone has different understandings and different degrees of sensitivity to the laws of heaven and earth, so they naturally see and understand differently.

The fact is that so many innate cloud patterns change in countless ways in such a short period of time.

When ordinary monks saw this, they naturally could not comprehend it thoroughly.

Even a great monk, who possesses spiritual thoughts that are difficult for others to achieve, cannot simultaneously remember such a complex and changing innate cloud pattern in just a short moment.

If this kind of special inheritance only relied on the understanding and memory of living beings, it would probably have been lost in the long river of time.

Only the spirit of the immortal weapon, an existence close to the Tao, can record it completely.

Therefore, it is not that the innate moire pattern has all the 'images' of the laws of the world, but that the monks who practice it are limited by their understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, and can only see part of the cloud pattern of the laws they have understood. picture.

Most monks have limited energy. Once they understand the law of water, it will be difficult for them to understand the law of fire, let alone the changes in the cloud pattern of the law of killing.

Those changes in the innate moiré patterns derived from the laws of heaven and earth that are not within personal cognition will naturally not be observed.

The Buddha once spread many warnings to the outside world, such as all living things in the world, all have barriers to knowledge and vision.

The so-called barrier of knowledge and vision is the same when applied to this innate cloud pattern.

If Luo Yan didn't have the help of the chip, he would only think that the white clouds one after another were very simple clouds when he came to understand this large innate cloud pattern.

Rather than a law derived change.

Fortunately, the chip is most sensitive to the microscopic level, so it can depict the complete basic moiré pattern so clearly.

"I didn't expect that this innate cloud pattern would be so complicated. The five major areas cover different directions."

"It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to find common ground among them."

Luo Yan said to himself, the laws of the true spirit world are really perfect.

So perfected that it can be used to describe the laws of heaven and earth, there are millions of basic variations in the innate cloud pattern.

Precisely because the Great Dao is perfect, most of the laws of heaven and earth can be evolved through the changes in these cloud patterns.

If Luo Yan could understand all these innate cloud patterns, in principle, he could learn them as long as they were scriptures recorded with cloud patterns!

"The magical powers of the True Spirit Realm are actually not much different from the magical powers of the Cangwu Realm."

"There is a big difference between the two in the way they use the Secret Art Treasure Scripture."

This is actually easy to understand. The fireball technique in Cangwu Realm is still a fireball technique when used in the True Spirit Realm.

The difference is that the spiritual power system of monks who use the same Taoist technique results in a difference in the power of the fireball technique.

For example, the various magical powers and secrets that Luo Yan practiced in the Cangwu Realm can still be used without reservation, and their power will not be weakened at all compared to the normal treasure scriptures.

Because this is a technique!
It is just a form of monks using the spiritual power in their bodies.

Strictly speaking, the biggest difference between the two worlds is the secret method of the true spiritual world and the foundation method of the lower world.

These seem to be two different paths of spiritual practice.

But from the current point of view, the road to the lower realm is not perfect and is a dead end!
"But the laws of the true spiritual world do have many extraordinary features."

Luo Yan's mind was immersed in the five-colored jade tablets. Looking at the secret magic scriptures that looked like stars, he actually felt like he had no idea where to start. Because there are so many magical powers and spells here, they are all-encompassing, and you can’t even take a look at them.

Since there is not much difference in the level of magical powers, Luo Yan has no plans to change the secret magic powers.

After all, if you start practicing from scratch, you will have to waste a long time before you can reach the level of confronting him, so there is no need for that at the moment.

However, Luo Yan still found the middle chapter of "Five Colors of Divine Light" in the Five Elements Sect's treasure house. He must redeem this kind of great magical power to suppress the sect.

In addition, he also found a great magical power called "Transformation".

The strange thing about this magic is that it is a space-type secret method.

As long as you put a special mark on someone within a certain range, you can teleport directly to the other person's side.

When you have reached great heights in cultivation, you can appear anywhere within the reach of your spiritual thoughts with a single thought. This is much more mysterious than the teleportation technique formed by the Nascent Soul monk's Nascent Soul leaving the body.

But for magical powers such as space, let alone Five Elements Sect disciples, even many sages of the upper three realms find it difficult to get started.

Of course, getting started here does not refer to secret techniques such as being unable to use space, but to understanding the laws of space.

This is like a monk who can walk across a river and fly to the other side.

But the monk flying over was not part of the river.

A monk who has truly understood the laws of space does not need to fly at all when encountering a river. He only needs to touch the water flow, and his figure will instantly appear on the river on the other side.

This is the law of space in the true sense, and you need to become a part of it, rather than a medium.

In the world of cultivation, there are actually many mysterious magical powers that involve the laws of space, such as the teleportation of Nascent Soul monks, the so-so distance of the world practiced by monks in the Void Refining Stage, the space confinement method of the Venerables of the Upper Three Realms, etc.

In principle, these secret techniques only exist independently in the form of magic, and are not space laws in the true sense.

After all, the law of space is one of the most superior laws of the great avenue. It is omnipresent and reaches everything, so it is naturally extremely difficult to comprehend.

Despite this, Luo Yan redeemed this great magical power that involves changes in spatial levels.

Anyway, now he hardly lacks contribution points.

Because in the past nine years, the income generated by Bay Bird Island has continued to increase, and Luo Yan can profit from a large sum of spiritual crystals every year.

These spiritual crystals were exchanged by him for contribution points.

Therefore, now he actually does not lack much contribution points.

After having a large number of contribution points, Luo Yan became much more comfortable in exchanging scriptures, treasures, skills, and various jade slip knowledge.

Everything is based on his level of interest, and he will give priority to redeeming these secrets.

Anyway, there are plenty of spiritual crystals, so there is no need to be too tight at all.

In addition, Luo Yan also exchanged many spiritual magic spells, such as the Soul Sealing Curse, the Shocking Cynomorium Curse, and so on.

He is naturally curious about this kind of secret technique that specifically works on the level of the soul, and will not let go of his plan to practice it.

Maybe it can be used in the future.

"The materials used to decorate the spirit puppet body also need to be carefully selected."

Luo Yan's eyes kept flashing, and in a short period of time, he had a complete plan.

Taking one step and looking at the next few steps has been his habit for many years.

Plan out the difficulties you may encounter or the variables that may occur in advance to avoid being at a loss when the time comes.

After all, it is related to your own practice, and there is no room for sloppiness!

"Monk fighting skills in the true spirit world almost all use the spiritual power stored in psychic particles. If my spirit puppet body meets a monk of the same level, I may not even be able to survive the opponent's ten moves."

This is a huge difference, and Luo Yan must face it.

These two things, the divine visualization map and the psychic particles, are the methods that bless the monk's mind and body. The spiritual puppet body cannot do this.

Therefore, after reaching the golden elixir stage, Luo Yan's own strength actually expanded his spirit puppet body by a large margin.

After all, the only place that provides spiritual power for the spirit puppet body is the small core placed at the heart.

However, Luo Yan has hundreds of thousands of units of psychic particles in his body, and the spiritual power that both parties can control is not at the same level at all.

If a conflict breaks out with others, his spiritual puppet body may not even have a chance to escape, and will be blown up on the spot.

Because there is only one kinetic energy that drives the spirit puppet body, the spiritual power of heaven and earth that can be mobilized will also become extremely limited!

The gap between the two is like the difference between a chickadee and a swan, too big to be compared!

"Psychic particles. This is indeed a big problem!"

Luo Yan knew very well that the power that monks in the true spirit world could master was far beyond what monks in the lower world could compare with.

Those hundreds of thousands of spiritual energy particles, the amount of spiritual power of heaven and earth that can be mobilized, even if all the core of the spirit puppet's body is used to fill the body, are far inferior to his true body.

This is a qualitative difference.

Luo Yan thought for a long time and read many ancient books from the past in the treasure house of secret scriptures, but he could hardly solve this problem perfectly.

If monks in the true spirit world want their false bodies to have a certain level of strength, they generally use the art of the second spiritual body.

That is, when a monk reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he can turn the spiritual energy particles contained in his body into human form.

Through this, one can perform the art of incarnation outside the body.

At this time, the strength of the second spiritual body is not much different from that of the main body.

And has infinite possibilities for regeneration.

Therefore, in the true spirit world, most high-level monks usually choose to drive their second spiritual body to travel when they go out for training.

Although the incarnation technique outside the body cannot perform the secret technique of the soul, after being blown up, it will take a long time to fully recover.

But this still cannot conceal its almost perfect advantages: the spiritual body is dead, and the body is intact, as if the monk himself is here!
In fact, this is similar to the spirit puppet body technique that Luo Yan has been using.

But with the suppression of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and the changes in the practice system, the original spirit puppet body technique is no longer very suitable for today's true spirit world.

If Luo Yan still wanted to use the spirit puppet body to go out and hone his strength like he did in the lower world, it would become impossible.

Because the spiritual power that can be used by the spirit body technique is too little, so little that even if he uses the laws of heaven and earth, he cannot compete with monks of the same level.

Not to mention fighting with a large number of disciples of the same level, even ordinary casual cultivators would find it difficult to suppress them lightly.

There are too many limitations!
"Perhaps the only way is to look at the innate cloud pattern or even the silver worm pattern."

Luo Yan thought to himself and thought of a way that couldn't solve the problem now.

The analysis of innate cloud patterns is very slow, and it cannot be used on the spirit puppet body yet.

As for runes like the silver worm pattern, which can carry the true immortality, Luo Yan searched through the entire Five Elements Mountain treasure house, but could not find a way to practice it.

It stands to reason that with the strength and status of the Five Elements Sect, even if there is not much inheritance about such cloud patterns, there should never be even a trace of information found.

Obviously, this level of inheritance information should have been deliberately blocked by the top leaders of the Five Elements Sect.

You need to have a certain power status within the sect to be able to redeem it.

In addition, there is also the exchange of heaven and earth spiritual materials.

At first, Luo Yan wanted to find a high-level chalcedony to see if it could solve the problem of insufficient spiritual power in the core of the spirit puppet.

But as he continued to read, there were more and more vertical lines on his brows.

Because high-grade treasures and spiritual objects cannot be found at all.

What is different from the time in the lower realm is that the things in the Five Elements Sect's treasure house are also subject to realm restrictions.

Just like Luo Yan's current realm is at the Golden Core stage, then he cannot exchange for treasures of the fourth level and above.

Unless it is a magic weapon for body protection, physical healing, secret medicine for the soul, etc.

Otherwise, you can only exchange for treasures and spiritual objects of the same level and level as your own.

As a result, Luo Yan felt that there were too many restrictions.

There are limits everywhere.

There is quite an embarrassing situation of having nothing to contribute but nowhere to spend it.

This made Luo Yan's idea of ​​using fourth-level heaven and earth spiritual materials to replace the core of the spirit puppet's body come to nothing, as its spiritual power was insufficient.

"Xianling, how many levels are there in the Five Elements Sect's jade medals?"

Luo Yan asked gently, doubts in his heart.

Perhaps this was one of the reasons why he was restricted from redeeming the spiritual items he wanted.

"The direct descendants of the Immortal Sect should have three grades: five-color black jade, seven-color purple jade, and gilded fairy jade."

After hearing this, Luo Yan continued to ask: "How can I improve my status in the sect?"

"Insufficient authority to answer."

Hearing the explanation from the Five Elements Mountain Spirit, Luo Yan felt a frown.

Even this bit of information rights must be blocked. It seems that there are many secrets hidden within the Five Elements Sect.

However, there is an information blockade plan on the upper level, and Luo Yan also has a wall ladder that can solve the problem.

And it is also a legal and compliant channel.

Even if the senior elders saw it, they couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Luo Yan then came to the mission area and posted a message using contribution points: 'How can low-level disciples improve their status? '

Finally, I also marked the method of upgrading the tokens from multicolored black jade to colorful purple jade. If there is a method for upgrading the tokens from gilded immortal jade, the price can be negotiated.

Because he was not familiar with this kind of knowledge, Luo Yan did not set the number of contribution points in return. He wrote that the price could be negotiated.

As long as the price requested by the other party is reasonable, he will not refuse.

This seems to be just a matter of one or two sentences, but in fact it is related to Luo Yan's future practice!
So he had to figure this out.

Luo Yan even thought about whether to ask the cheap senior brother.

But then he thought about it, it wasn't a big deal, and there was no need to disturb Senior Brother Mu Qiu's practice just to solve a doubt in his mind.

Anyway, he still has a lot of surplus from his current contribution points, so he might as well just issue paid tasks.

(End of this chapter)
