Chapter 85 Sixth Level Soul Armor and Dameng Chunqiu
As soon as Zhao Xing entered the maze of mechanisms, the two walls behind him closed, leaving him with no way out.
Pointing his finger towards the sky, the golden light disappeared into the sky and disappeared directly behind the four-meter-high wall.
"Sure enough, Xingyun can't support such a high height at all."
Zhao Xing tried another jump and found that no matter how high he jumped, he could not exceed the height of the wall.
Of course, this doesn't mean that you can't cast spells.
Instead, it can only be used inside the maze. It is impossible to use the trick to get an overview of the whole situation by relying on the moving clouds in the sky.
"See if there's anything we can use."
Zhao Xing randomly found a fork in the road and walked down.
The labyrinth of agencies tests strength, intelligence, will, and even social relations. It can be said to be very comprehensive.
The level used by Dali to cultivate elites is all about being comprehensive.
Therefore, it is difficult to get through this labyrinth of mechanisms even if you have the strength.
Unless you have reached the fourth level and have not yet broken through it, then you can break through all the methods at once and directly break through this maze and get the reward.
"Buzz~"
Zhao Xing walked around a corner and saw a dead end ahead.
Under the wall, there was a goat-like machine beast with red hair staring at him.
The goat's eyes were also red. The moment their eyes met, Zhao Xing trembled, and then his whole body fell into a strange state.
"Hey~" Then the goat jumped slightly and disappeared at the end.
"You're so unlucky that you encountered an 'upside-down sheep' when you came up?" Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The upside-down sheep is an illusion machine beast.
After falling under its illusion, the whole person will enter a state of 'retrograde behavior'.
Obviously he wanted to move forward, but because of what his mind was thinking, his hands and feet were really retreating.
If you want to cast the wind spell, what you actually cast is thunder.
He wanted to attack to the right, but ended up hitting the left.
"Bang!" Zhao Xing wanted to turn back, but accidentally changed the direction and hit the wall.
The intensity is just right, it's not confusing and not nerve-wracking.
"It hurts." Zhao Xing obviously wanted to cover his forehead, but put his hand on his lower body.
This feeling of going against the grain is extremely uncomfortable.
But there is one thing that is gratifying. The familiar smell is back! He seems to have found the feeling he had when he entered the dungeon in his previous life.
"There's an upside-down sheep, that's great. I'm bound to get the sixth-level treasure!"
Zhao Xing began to adjust his condition, quickly became familiar with the situation after the hallucination, and continued walking.
"Kakakaka~"
Just after turning a few corners, a sudden sound of a machine turning was heard. Zhao Xing looked down and realized that he had stepped into a trap.
There was a dent in the stone slab under his feet, and on the wall in front of him, there was a lightning rod inlaid with blue gems, which was already aimed at him, ready to go.
"Huh, what a small trick."
Zhao Xing squatted down, knocked on several surrounding floors, and then lifted a uniquely shaped part from a loose floor.
Then he stuck it under his feet.
I raised my foot, but the lightning rod still didn't respond.
Zhao Xing walked over slowly.
In the next quarter of an hour, Zhao Xing encountered various traps, including fire-breathing ones and stone-dropping ones, hidden arrow-shooting ones, and even fantasy trap beasts.
The maze is entirely composed of mechanisms.
All agencies follow the same principle, which is to interfere, prevent, induce and delay the time of the intruders.
"It is rumored that the maze of mechanisms was made by the geniuses of Da Li Tiangong Taoist Academy. They are constantly adding bricks and mortar and contributing fresh ideas to the maze."
"Any item that can be adopted by the Academy will be rewarded."
"This has led to countless geniuses racking their brains to add mechanisms here, and they would like to lay a hundred rolling mines on one brick."
"Why do you come here to embarrass others... What a crime."
Zhao Xing wiped the palms of his hands and found that they were red and swollen, and couldn't help but sigh.
Although he can be considered 'experienced', he still fell into a lot of tricks along the way.
The vision in front of me was blurry, and the surrounding area became dim.
Just now, in order to avoid six chain traps, he accidentally put his hand on the wall.
It turns out that the seventh link is really bad, a layer of eye-catching powder.
"But the more mechanisms there are, it proves that what I want is getting closer. If I find the props on this floor, the next step will be much easier."
Zhao Xing went down the stairs, and the surrounding walls became shorter.
Although he is blind, this does not hinder his movement.
Use the Wind Spell to make everything around you appear clearly in your mind through the feedback of the wind blowing.
"Found it!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Xing's mouth, then he took two steps back and hid in the blind corner of the steps.
Phew~
The wind spell went towards a table in front, and the wind blew a piece of yellow paper on it.
"Oh ho ho ho!"
The table seemed to come alive, it kept making strange noises, and its four legs were jumping around as if it was burning feet on the ground.
"Don't run away from the desk monster!"
Zhao Xing shouted, and the machine beast that looked like a table rushed towards him.
On the way over, it actually changed its shape, with a lot of spikes growing out of the table and legs.
"Bang!"
The extremely fast table mechanism beast crashed into the wall.
Because Zhao Xing hid in the corner between the steps and the wall, the table mechanism beast was stuck.
The spikes on it were only half a finger away from Zhao Xing.
"Hmph, it's a little trick, it's ridiculous."
Zhao Xing reached out and tore off a piece of yellow paper taped to the table.
"Wow~"
The table suddenly scattered into a pile of parts.
"A hybrid spell machine beast can make something like this. You are really a damn talent." Zhao Xing complained in his heart while digging through the pile of broken pieces.
Soon, Zhao Xing found a silver-white bead among the parts.
[Transformation Bead: Special Item]
[You can transform into one of the ten people you have recently come into contact with.]
[Transformation upper limit: Spirit Bridge is perfect]
"It's you."
Zhao Xing smiled slightly.
Then crush the bead.
When the beads were crushed, streaks of light and shadow suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Xing's eyes.
Xue Wenzhong, Chen Shijie, Zhao Ruide, Zhao Zheng, Mrs. Cai...wait, don't come to Mrs. Cai!
Zhao Xing paused when he saw the light and shadow stopping on Mrs. Cai, and was startled.
Chen Shijie's appearance immediately came to mind.
Fortunately, the light and shadow jumped over again and settled on Chen Shijie.
"Buzz~"
The light and shadow condensed into shape, and Chen Shijie appeared before his eyes.
"Huh~" Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
The characters formed by the special props transformed into beads will be completely based on the relationship between the characters in the mind.
In other words, the person's inner thoughts about his strength, personality, and relationship with the user will all be restored.
What if the ten people you have been in contact with recently are all enemies?
The transformed character is not a helper, but an obstacle, and will also attack the user.
Among the ten people Zhao Xing has been in contact with recently, Lao Chen is considered to be his choice.
Next, you need to have a certain amount of fighting power to get out of the maze with many traps.
If Mrs. Cai really comes to him, he can directly declare that he has failed to break through.
"What's wrong with you kid? Why are you staying in such a weird place? Huh? Why are you blind?" Chen Shijie asked curiously as soon as he appeared.
"Stop asking, Lao Chen, hurry up and help with the work."
Of course, this is not the real Chen Shijie, but an illusion based on the impression of Chen Shijie in Zhao Xing's mind.
"What did you call me?" Chen Shijie frowned.
"Master Chen." Zhao Xing quickly changed his words, "Master Chen, please help me."
"Huh, that's pretty much it." Chen Shijie turned around and opened the way for Zhao Xing.
Chen Shijie showed his strength at the eighth level. With his help, the speed of passing through the next level suddenly accelerated. He also knew a variety of intermediate perfection level spells.
In terms of reaction, intelligence, and adaptability, they are all excellent.
As for whether the real Chen Shijie is so powerful?
Zhao Xing didn't know, but he guessed that Lao Chen was really that strong, even stronger than he imagined.
Deep down in his heart, he really believed that Chen Shijie must be at least in the eighth level.
Just from the chat between Zhao Xing and him, those insights were not something that a true ninth-grade person could have.
Although Chen Shijie claims to be a Si Nong from the Dili faction, he also has great insights into other magics. The Jun Si Nong is more comprehensive, and Lao Chen is the best among them.
"Assuming that Lao Chen is really that powerful in reality, then why did he come to Nanyang County to be such a small official?"
Zhao Xing looked at Old Chen's back, and then squatted down.
Chen Shijie in front was bombarded in turn by seven mechanisms that were triggered.
"Cough cough, cough cough... What a broken place, why are there so many agencies?" Chen Shijie came out of the smoke, his hair disheveled, and he kept coughing.
Zhao Xing looked up and looked ahead. When he passed him, he patted Chen Shijie on the shoulder: "Thank you, Old Chen."
"Are you itchy? You actually called me again..."
Chen Shijie was furious, but before he finished speaking, he turned into a ray of light and shadow and disappeared.
Zhao Xing walked into a circular room in front.
The surrounding light dimmed, and doors flashed in front of him.
"The five elements are in phase, the stem position enters and the Kan position comes out."
Zhao Xing observed for a moment, then entered through the Qian door, and then came out from the Kun position and returned to the room.
One of the surrounding doors disappeared, but a new one soon appeared.
And there have been different changes.
There was a door flashing with thunder, and lightning spread like tentacles into the room.
A golden sword slowly thrust out from the door, forcing Zhao Xing's position.
Zhao Xing glanced at the door that was spitting fire.
"Taking chestnuts from the fire can gain a glimmer of hope."
Then he rushed through the flame door.
The next moment, he returned to the room again.
At this time, the surrounding light doors rotated again, and the roar of a beast came from behind the door.
Zhao Xing carefully identified it for a moment.
He looked at one of them with a smile: "The Qilin roars, and the auspicious beast comes to the door."
Then step into the light door.
The next moment, Zhao Xing appeared in the room again.
At this time, there are only four light gates left.
It's still spinning, but the breath coming from it has become much softer.
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the door of the four seasons."
"It's the last level."
"Enter through the spring gate and exit through the autumn gate."
"Thinking of Spring and Autumn is like a dream."
Zhao Xing stepped into a green light and then emerged from the golden light door.
"Buzz~"
The surrounding visions disappeared and thick fog rolled in. Zhao Xing looked up again and appeared in front of Haezhi.
"Student Zhao Xing passed the labyrinth in less than an hour and was rewarded with a sixth-level 'Soul Armor' magic weapon."
Then the magic beast Xie Zhi spit out a piece of dark armor from its mouth.
The armor was shining with luster. After it flew over, Zhao Xing stretched out his hand to catch it. The armor immediately followed his skin and covered his whole body like running water.
"The sixth-level soul armor is the descendant of the peerless divine weapon 'Rizhao Changkong'. Although it is only the sixth level, its soul protection effect is not weaker than that of the seventh level, and it is absolutely indestructible. The attack power of the fourth level will also be
Weakened by 90%."
"Below level four, it has a rebound effect on soul-based spells and secret attack techniques."
Haechi introduced.
"Thank you for protecting me." Zhao Xing also noticed the specialness of the soul armor. It felt warm all over the body at this moment. It was the comfort and security that came from the soul.
"The sixth-level soul armor comes with the first chapter of the secret law of the state religion. You must not leak it."
"If someone notices the existence of soul armor and leaks it."
"Don't worry, no one will know about the Soul Armor unless you die." Haechi said calmly, "If you die, the imperial court will avenge you, take back the Soul Armor, and kill all those who know about it."
Zhao Xing nodded silently. Although this Haechi machine beast had spirituality and could communicate, it was only in Tiangong Hall. It did not know that Da Li had perished.
"It's almost dawn. Your soul is too weak. Get out."
Then Haechi blew gently, and Zhao Xing immediately exited the Tiangong Hall and retreated to the door of Dameng Academy in one breath.
Opening your eyes, the familiar mosquito net comes into view.
Zhao Xing touched his arms and found a pair of pendants with three pills.
Among them, there are two fourth-level elixirs, namely the Five Zang Dispelling Evil Pill and the Giant Whale Pill, and the third-level elixir is the Earthly Evil Pill.
As for the sixth-level treasure soul armor, it is integrated into the body and directly protected in the sea of consciousness.
Sixth-level treasures are still earthly treasures. Although they are strange, they cannot be called divine weapons. They do not have this magical effect of integrating into the body.
But it is the daughter of the peerless treasure ‘Sunshine Sky’, so it has the same effect as a seventh-level ‘magic weapon’ and can be stored directly in the body.
"The sun shines on the sky... I don't know if this magic weapon is in the Dameng Academy." Zhao Xing thought silently. During the Qiyun Dynasty, there were several unique treasures that transcended the times.
They were passed down from ancient times. Due to the silence of spiritual energy, they also lost most of their power. They only shined again in the era of revival.
If given the chance, Zhao Xing would of course want to get the mother body of the soul armor.
"Haezhi said that there is a rare treasure at the end of the Tiangong Hall level. It should not be the Soul Armor Matrix. I don't know where it is."
Undoubtedly, the biggest gain from this level is the sixth level soul armor.
As well as the Nightmare Sect's unique skill "The Great Dream Spring and Autumn" attached to the soul armor.
Of course, the Giant Whale Pill, Disha Pill, and Five Zang Elixir Pill are also very good. If you take them now, you can see the effect immediately.
Every time he entered the Academy, he gained huge rewards. Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh:
"It's really a treasure mountain. It's not necessarily difficult to make good use of this wealth and survive until the recovery era."
After the autumn equinox, officials have two days off.
Zhao Xing didn't have to go to work, he just stayed at home to digest the benefits.
He doesn't need the Earth Evil Pill for the time being, because it needs to be used in conjunction with the method of refining evil spirits to maximize its effectiveness. The same is true for the Five Internal Evil Elixir Pills.
As for the Giant Whale Pill, it took him a full day to digest it.
"After taking this elixir, I feel as if I have eaten a whale." Zhao Xing moved back and forth in the courtyard, his face rosy.
Zhao Zheng looked at his eldest brother and thought it was amazing. He ran and jumped all day long and didn't even need to eat. He was so amazing!
Zhao Ruide was a little surprised because he felt that Zhao Xing had changed a lot this day.
It can be judged mainly from the breath.
In the morning, Zhao Xing's breathing and gathering energy into his body were normal.
But at night, my breathing became extremely long, and the speed of gathering energy into my body also increased significantly.
"I've seen many top-grade warriors with such physiques. This is the first time I've seen top-grade Sinong with such a physique. I don't know what he went through on the mountain." Zhao Ruide thought his son had an adventure on the mountain.
That's it.
Now it is not accurate to say that Zhao Xing was as strong as a cow, but as strong as an elephant.
"If he practices martial arts, I'm afraid he can even get into the top grade." Zhao Ruide couldn't help but sigh. In comparison, Zhao Zheng was almost eight years old, and he didn't show any talent for martial arts. He was also very lazy, which was really a headache.
At night, Zhao Xing lay on the bed and began to practice "The Great Dream Spring and Autumn".
"The Nightmare Sect is the national religion of Da Li, and the Dream Chunqiu is a classic secret art." Zhao Xing has a deep memory of this secret art because it uses "dreams" very skillfully.
Although the unique skills of the sect era are not at their full power in this era, "Da Meng Chun Qiu" is an exception.
The power of 'killing people in a dream' and 'a dream of heaven and earth' is not bad even in this era. It is a proper version of the transitional magical skill.
"Humans have three souls: heaven soul, earth soul, and life soul."
"The two souls of heaven and earth are always outside, but only the soul of life lives alone."
"After the life soul lives in the womb, its potential is distributed in the physical body, forming the seven souls of the human being."
"The soul of heaven is the soul of the past life, and the soul of earth is the soul of cause and effect."
"The two souls of heaven and earth are wandering outside and have some kind of intersection with the soul of life, which is the 'dream'."
"That's why people will dream about places they have never been to in person, and feel that a certain place seems very familiar. They will also dream about people who are closely related to them, and they may even have magical reactions."
"For example, if a relative who is far away in the border area dies, I will dream about it even before the news comes back."
"Another example is that in a dream, I actually recalled the content of my chat with my childhood friend."
When Zhao Xing was studying the Dream Chapter of Spring and Autumn Period, he saw several interesting sayings.
"The introductory chapter of Dreams in the Spring and Autumn Period has two stages, one is dream interpretation, and the other is dream entry."
"If you can dream anytime, anywhere, and control others to dream, then you have truly entered the door."
"After the introduction, it is the second chapter "Dream Walking"."
"At that time, I will be able to walk in other people's dreams and use the opportunity of the intersection of the three souls to kill the person's three souls."
"Once the three souls are destroyed, the seven souls of the body lose their dominance and become a walking corpse, not far from death."
Zhao Xing browses this dream chapter of Dream Spring and Autumn.
Suddenly, several spells in the Dream Chapter attracted his attention.
Chapter completed!
