Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Gu Xu's sudden appearance surprised everyone present.

Due to the cover-up of the causal spell, they were unable to immediately recognize Gu Xu's identity.

But they were all surprised by Gu Xu's youth - after all, as everyone knows, the art of talismans is a subject that requires years of accumulation before it can flourish. And this person was invited to the academy at such a young age, and it is very likely that he is another gifted talisman wizard like the current emperor.

Countless expectant and demanding eyes were instantly focused on him.

If it were an ordinary young person, his heart would probably have been beating faster and sweating profusely under the pressure of being watched by everyone.

But Gu Xu still expounded his views in an orderly manner.

The current problems of this deduction array reminded him of the first general-purpose electronic computer on Earth, Ignac. Because Ignac used vacuum tubes, it faced several tube failures every day. Almost half of the time, it was in a state of functional impairment. Therefore, vacuum tube computers were gradually replaced by transistor computers with lower energy consumption, smaller size, and more stable performance.

Based on this idea, he stretched out his finger and gestured quickly on the light curtain, proposing to replace the Thunder Soul Crystal in the formation with the Cold Moon Ice Soul, the Black Cloud Mysterious Iron with the Shujiang Copper, and the Fiery Cloud Stone with the Liangshan Jade... At the same time, he began to rapidly modify the details of the formation.

Soon, the light curtain was covered with dense runes.

At first, the talisman masters around him could barely keep up with his thoughts and understand what he wrote.

But after a while, as the number of runes increased and became more and more complex, everyone present became more and more confused, as if they were reading a book in heaven.

Gu Xu, who had entered a state of enlightenment, was completely immersed in the ocean of talismans and naturally did not notice the dumbfounded expressions of the people around him.

It was not until he had finished writing down all his ideas in one go that he realized that his audience had become completely dazed, with dazed and absent-minded eyes.

"Does anyone have any questions?" he asked.

There was silence.

It’s not that they don’t have questions, but they have so many questions that they don’t know where to start.

Gu Xu glanced at everyone's expressions, thoughtful.

Then he turned his head and looked at the light curtain, erased the few Arabic numerals that were accidentally written on it, and changed them into the language of Dahuang.

"Do you understand now?" he asked again.

Everyone remained silent.

  They all secretly complained in their hearts: Do you think we can’t understand it just because of those strange symbols?

Gu Xu sighed softly.

  It seems that the level of the talisman masters of this generation in Dahuang is still not very good!

They couldn't even understand the talisman formation that he had specially simplified. How could they compete with the Lingxiao Realm in the future?

Last night, at the Fengtian Temple Square, Gu Xu learned from a conversation with the Silver Dragon Jiang Zhaoyue that Taishang Haotian had successfully built several Haotian ships, which could carry many practitioners, travel through the void, and attack other worlds.

The rune formation is undoubtedly the key to supporting the operation of the Haotian ship.

It is not difficult to see from this that the Lingxiao Realm's level of development in the art of talismans and formations has far surpassed that of the Great Wilderness.

Although Gu Xu was extremely talented in this area and continuously made improvements to various talismans, his power was ultimately limited. It was impossible for him to do everything by himself and drag the entire wilderness forward by his own strength.

He must convey his ideas and concepts to the monks in the Great Wilderness as soon as possible.

"Lord Wang, do you understand?" After a brief silence, Gu Xu turned his head and looked at Wang Jian who was standing in the corner and asked.

Wang Jian pondered for a moment and nodded: "I can probably understand it."

As a powerful saint and master of talismans, Wang Jian had devoted his energy to studying the "Eight Diagrams Logic Circuit" designed by Gu Xu in the past, so he could barely understand Gu Xu's ideas. "Then you stay here and explain it to them in detail!" Gu Xu ordered, "I have some other things to take care of."

After saying that, he turned around and strode away from "Siqitang", leaving Wang Jian standing alone in the sight of the talisman masters.

With Gu Xu's departure, the causal spell cast on Wang Jian also quietly dissipated.

Everyone suddenly recognized this low-key elder, who turned out to be the current saint and master of talismans, so they all bowed respectfully to him.

"No need to be polite," Wang Jian said calmly, waving his hand. "In this 'Si Qi Hall', I am no different from you all. We are all travelers on the road of exploring the great way, and there is no distinction between high and low. There is no need to be restrained here, and you can speak freely. If I have made any mistakes in my words, I hope you will not hesitate to give me advice and correct me in time."

At this time, everyone began to slowly realize that the young man who had just come to the academy with Wang Jian was not only a master of talisman skills, but also a saintly and powerful person like Wang Jian was extremely submissive to him.

  What is his identity?

Du Yuan hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but took a few steps forward and asked cautiously: "Prince, that person just now, could it be His Majesty?"

Wang Jian nodded, confirming his guess.

Seeing this scene, everyone present opened their eyes wide.

They came from all corners of the country, and many even came from remote areas. To them, the Emperor of Daxia seemed to be an unreachable, mysterious and legendary existence.

I didn't expect to see him here today.

However, they changed their minds and thought that in this world, perhaps only His Majesty, who was the reincarnation of a god, could reach the pinnacle in the field of talismans and surpass everyone else at such a young age.

Wang Jian took in everyone's shocked expressions.

"Next, I will explain in detail the improvement ideas that His Majesty just proposed," he said slowly, "If you have any questions, please feel free to interrupt me at any time.

"Your Majesty has ordered that a brand new deduction formation must be developed before this summer. This formation must be able to support the daily use of at least one city's practitioners.

“We have a heavy responsibility and the road ahead is long!”

As soon as Wang Jian said this, all the talisman masters felt the pressure doubled.

They found it quite difficult to understand the talismans drawn by Gu Xu. This feeling was just like when Gu Xu was a middle school student in his previous life and faced dense and dense high-level mathematical formulas.

  However, His Majesty actually asked them to build the entire formation within just a few months!

Your Majesty, do you think too highly of them?

However, thinking back to the various favorable treatments and rewards that the court had previously promised, they gritted their teeth, made up their minds, and thought, "Let's fight this time!"

…………

The twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month.

Gu Xu celebrated his nineteenth birthday.

Recently, he has been busy with state affairs and is worried about the threats from the Lingxiao Realm.

It was not until Han Shunxi reminded him that he realized that after he ascended the throne, his birthday had become a national legal holiday called the "Wanshou Festival."

On this day, the whole country should celebrate, all officials should come to congratulate, banquets should be held, and birthday gifts should be accepted.

"It must cost a lot of money to do these things, right?" Gu Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Han Shunxi.

Han Shunxi pondered for a moment and replied, "In the previous dynasty, during the Great Qi period, each celebration of the Wanshou Festival usually cost thousands of taels of silver..."

"Then let's cancel them all and keep things simple," Gu Xu said without hesitation when he heard "more than a thousand taels of silver", "One day of national holiday is enough, there is no need to waste money on these meaningless things." (End of this chapter)
