Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

Chapter 286 Devotional Map

Zhao Lin grabbed the spirit stone and looked at the picture of the spirit beast in his mind at the same time.

"Don't you want Lingshi?"

"Give you!"

After the spirit beast picture was ashesed, the surface was covered with a layer of gray mist, looming, as if falling into a deep sleep.

And the moment Zhao Lin grabbed the spirit stone, the fog cleared, and the spirit beast picture suddenly lit up, and at the same time let out a clear cry!
Dozens of silver threads protruded from the spirit beast picture, like dozens of long "touch claws", running straight towards the spirit stone along Zhao Lin's arm.

"Zi!"

When the tentacles touched the spirit stone, the color of the front end instantly changed from silver white to emerald green, spreading towards the spirit beast picture.

"It's absorbing aura."

Zhao Lin's heart skipped a beat, but he wasn't surprised. He watched everything silently to see what would happen next.

Light waves flowed in the spirit stone, just as Dong Lingcheng said, the snowflake texture on it disappeared, and the spirit energy was flowing into Zhao Lin's body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After a while, the color of the spirit stone became lighter and lighter, from emerald green to light emerald, and then slowly turned gray.

Finally, with a "wow", it turned into a ball of powder.

Zhao Lin picked up another spirit stone without hesitation...

In this way, the spirit beast figure sucked up one spirit stone, then sucked the second, and then the third, until it absorbed the spirit energy of the eight spirit stones.

When picking up the ninth spirit stone, Zhao Lin's hands trembled.

It hurts a bit.

But the meat hurts, the spirit beast map is his biggest reliance, let alone a few spirit stones, he has to find a way to get hundreds of spirit stones.

Fortunately, after absorbing the nine spirit stones, the spirit beast figure finally stopped and retracted the dozens of claws.

Then there was a slight swing, and layers of ripples appeared on the surface.

The nine alien beasts in the grid slowly emerged from the "water surface", and their shapes became three-dimensional and vivid, as if they were about to come alive.

"They won't crawl out of it, will they?"

Zhao Lin was taken aback, and quickly looked around.

The living room is not big, and it might not be able to accommodate the nine strange beasts if they come out of it, especially the biggest bears and thunder catfish.

But then, something unexpected happened: the spirit beast picture, together with the nine strange beasts inside, disappeared together!
The sea of ​​consciousness is empty, leaving only chaos.

Zhao Lin was dumbfounded.

The spirit beast picture sucked away the energy of the spirit stone, and then... ran away?
Even Lingshi can't keep you?

Just when he was in a daze, a huge Jiugongtu appeared out of thin air, blasted away the chaos, and fell from the sky!

This picture of the Nine Palaces is dozens of times, hundreds of times larger than the previous picture of spirit beasts. It stands majestically, the background is as black as ink, and the golden lines are straight and square, as if drawn with a giant brush.

Zhao Lin "looked up" at the Nine Palaces Map, and saw three large characters written on the top of it: Spiritual Cultivation Map!

"Spiritual training map?"

Zhao Lin muttered about it, and heaved a sigh of relief. It seems that the spirit beast map has not disappeared, but has changed its appearance.

Then he wondered inexplicably: "What does the word 'xiu' in the spiritual cultivation picture mean? How is it different from the spiritual beast picture?"

The doubt didn't last long, just like the picture of the spirit beast back then, a strange memory flooded into my mind.

Zhao Lin immediately understood everything.

It turns out that the spirit beast map has evolved...

Consciously or unintentionally, I have fulfilled the two conditions for the evolution of the spirit beast map.

[-]. Collect all nine alien beasts.

Second, provide enough aura.

The evolved spiritual map no longer absorbs the spirit of strange beasts, but has the ability to extract monk spells!
Zhao Lin gasped.

"Don't suck strange beasts, but suck people instead?"

But when he continued to read this memory, he found that it was different from what he thought.

There are three ways to obtain spells in the spiritual map: absorb, trace, and capture.

The first method: Like the spirit beast map, when a monk dies, the spirit emerges, and the spirit map can "absorb" the spells that the monk has mastered.

The second way: the monk has died, but left the skeleton.

The spiritual map can "trace back" some of the spells mastered by the monks during his lifetime from the bones.

The more complete the skeleton is preserved, the more spells can be traced back to the spiritual map.

The third way: the owner of the spiritual map, close contact with the spell, such as being hit by a spell, the spiritual map can "capture" the spell.

But these benefits come with limits and costs...

The limitation is that the spiritual training map only has nine grids, and each grid can only accommodate one spell, and only spells of the same attribute and different ranks can be superimposed.

For example, the spiritual map has absorbed the "water avoidance technique".

Water avoidance is a first-order water-based spell, so this grid cannot accommodate any other spells.

It can only absorb second-order, third-order and other high-level water spells into it.

"Spells have a maximum level of five, which means that a grid can store spells of the same attribute from the first level to the fifth level."

"Nine grids are 45 spells... that's a lot!"

Zhao Lin changed his mind, figured out the doorway inside, and excitedly hit his palm with his fist.

But when he understood the price to be paid to obtain the spell, his face froze for a moment.

Spiritual diagram analysis Spells need spirit stones, the higher the level of spells, the higher the mastery level, and the more spirit stones are needed.

To analyze first-level spells, if it is an "entry" level, only one spirit stone is needed.

A higher level of "proficiency" requires four spirit stones.

"Xiaocheng" first level, 16 Yuan Lingshi...

The number of spirit stones increased exponentially by four times.

Mastery, Dacheng, and Consummation require 64, 250 six, and 24 spirit stones respectively!

1000 yuan of Lingshi will complete a spell.

Is it expensive?

A little.

Is it worth it?

Too much value!

No matter how ordinary spells are cultivated to perfection, they can turn decay into magical power.

If there is a chance, 1000 yuan of spirit stones can be exchanged for a spell to be cultivated to perfection. I am afraid that all monks in the Qi refining realm are willing to sell their iron, and even go out of debt to get this opportunity!
As for second-tier spells, third-tier spells can also be analyzed, but the spirit stones paid are more expensive.

Second-tier spells require four times as much spirit stones as first-tier spells, third-tier spells four times as much as second-tier spells...and so on.

Zhao Lin silently calculated that the highest level five spells need 25 spirit stones to complete!

It is simply astronomical.

Even with the wealth of a Golden Core cultivator, he couldn't take out so many spirit stones casually.

But Zhao Lin believed that if there was such a deal in the world, no Golden Core cultivator would refuse it.

At the end of this memory, Zhao Lin learned that although the spirit beast map had disappeared, the acquired abilities would continue to be retained.

With the growth of cultivation, strength, sense of smell, hearing, self-healing ability, and the perception ability of the six spiritual roots will all rise and be further strengthened, and there is no need to absorb the spirit anymore.

With all doubts gone, Zhao Lin was determined and circled the room excitedly.

It is definitely an "upgrade" for the spiritual beast map to evolve into a spiritual map.

It is more suitable for the world of cultivating immortals. After all, the abilities of strange beasts can be replaced by spells.

For strength there is great power, for speed there are magic movement and flying escape, and spells are ever-changing, but they cannot be replaced by attributes.

"Once a certain spell is absorbed, the attributes of the grid are determined, and the nine grids must be arranged reasonably."

"Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Ice and Thunder each occupy one grid, and non-attribute spells occupy another grid, which is seven."

"The other two grids are temporarily reserved for backup, and we will talk about it when we encounter a suitable spell..."

Zhao Lin walked around the room again and again, and finally walked to the wooden box containing the spirit stones, took out the spirit stones and counted them carefully.

Dong Lingcheng sent 100 yuan of spirit stones, and nine yuan was used up for the spirit beast picture, leaving 91 yuan.

"One, four, sixteen, 64... These spirit stones are only enough to cultivate a spell to the proficient level."

"The spirit training map is good, but it's too expensive!"

After the excitement passed, Zhao Lin gradually calmed down, and said to himself: "We have to think carefully about which spell to practice first."
