Chapter 134: Digging One's Own Pit, Jumping In Oneself
Jerry overlooked one problem: the prerequisite for crafting a Soul Guidance Device is having Spirit Power, which is required to become a Soul Guidance Master.
After becoming a Soul Guidance Master, learning the Rule Runes also requires one's own comprehension to be good.
For the past few days, Jerry has explained the Teleportation Array Rule Runes to Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, and Lingling many times, but they simply cannot understand them.
In Jerry's view, once understood, it is very simple. The first step is to grasp the meaning of each Rule Rune; now that these few people don't understand, what else can be done?
It is perfectly fine for these few people's Spirit Power to craft a Level 9 Soul Guidance Device; the issue is just not understanding the meaning of the rules. Moreover, Jerry discovered that if they don't understand the meaning, just copying the form should work, right?
As a result, they always make mistakes halfway through. Now, what can be said? It can only be said that they lack the talent of a Soul Guidance Master.
Jerry thought of the novels he read in his past life, where artifact refining requires artifact refining talent, alchemy requires alchemy talent, and arrays require array talent. Could it be that other auxiliary professions in this world also require talent?
Thinking of this, Jerry began to teach the three of them level by level. In the end, Zhuqing had difficulty understanding when crafting a Level 5 Soul Guidance Device, Lingling had difficulty when crafting a Level 6, and Xiao Wu only encountered difficulty when crafting a Level 8 Soul Guidance Device.
It seems there really is a talent limit for Soul Guidance Masters! Afterward, Jerry went to find his master and Ghost Douluo.
His master had difficulty understanding when crafting a Level 8 Soul Guidance Device, while Ghost Douluo had difficulty when crafting a Level 3.
After learning about the talent limit, Jerry was left speechless.
The Teleportation Array counts as at least Level 9; it seems that for now, only he himself can make it.
He had already made bold claims to the Great Elder before; at that time, he thought his master, Ghost Douluo, Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, and Rongrong would all do it together, but now he can only do it by himself.
Opening the plan, he saw that the Floating City requires twelve large office buildings and ten thousand ordinary houses. Spirit Master Heaven: five hundred courtyards, three hundred buildings. Great Spirit Master Heaven: one thousand courtyards, seven hundred buildings...
Jerry now really wishes he could slap his own face.
The trouble he made for himself!
Finally, Jerry began the miserable process of crafting.
The first day, he made 102 pieces; the second day, 146 pieces; the third day, 200 pieces. Jerry became more and more proficient, and now he can maintain a level of 200 pieces per day.
One month, two months, three months, half a year!
Jerry finally relied on his own diligent hands to build the foundation for every floor. In the future, each floor can continue to be added to, but Jerry really does not want to do it anymore. He did the same thing for a full half-year; now he feels like vomiting just looking at the materials!
He must find helpers, otherwise he will work himself to death in the future.
Jerry first thought of the Elders in the Cabinet. When everyone was testing their Spirit Power, it was discovered that Spirit Masters with fox martial souls generally had higher Spirit Power than others.
Seventh Elder Yu Shu, martial soul Six-Tailed Fire Fox, Minister of the Education Department;
Tenth Elder You Yi, martial soul Three-Tailed Ice Fox, Minister of the Logistics Department;
Eleventh Elder Lan Qiaoqin, martial soul Three-Tailed Charm Fox, Minister of the Development Department;
Twelfth Elder Gong Ya, martial soul Brain, Minister of the Research Department;
Jerry set his sights on these four Elders. It seems he will need to bleed heavily this time; Wangchuan Qiushui Dew is really not enough.
In the Star Dou Great Forest, Wangchuan Qiushui has now transformed into a little girl and suddenly sneezed violently several times.
Jerry thought of Hu Liena, whose martial soul is also a fox, but she is the disciple of Pope Bibi Dong, so he let that go.
He called over the four Elders. The four Elders looked straight at Jerry. Suddenly, he discovered that during this period, everyone's gaze toward him had changed; there seemed to be admiration, respect, and even affection.
At first, Jerry didn't pay attention, but finally, he discovered the problem; it seemed to be something that happened after practicing the Jerry Meditation Method.
Some people practice relatively quickly, and their Spirit Power improves relatively quickly. The higher the level these Spirit Masters practice to, the stranger their gaze toward Jerry becomes.
Jerry suddenly thought, this should be a side effect of the Visualization, right?
Visualizing a god that cannot be seen—the higher the level of practice, the more respect they have for the visualized god. However, Jerry is different; he often appears in front of them, so this admiration and respect are expressed. It is fine for the men, but for the women, it is very abnormal; those who have had more contact with Jerry have even developed feelings of affection.
Especially Twelfth Elder Gong Ya, with the Brain martial soul, who practices very quickly and has Spirit Power already over seven thousand. Moreover, she often has contact with Jerry in daily life. Now, looking at Jerry with eyes full of longing, it made Jerry feel embarrassed.
This side effect must be solved. He thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution. Stopping them from practicing is impossible; if they practice, it will affect their own thoughts.
Finally, Jerry came up with a perfect method: he made a mask to wear on his face, and in the future, he would reduce the number of times he has contact with others.
He can only do it this way for now!
Afterward, Jerry took out the corresponding amount of Wangchuan Qiushui Dew according to each person's Spirit Power. After the few people consumed it, their Spirit Power all reached the limit.
Then Jerry began to teach them the Rule Runes for each level of Soul Guidance Device.
Seventh Elder Yu Shu, martial soul Six-Tailed Fire Fox, limit Level 6 Soul Guidance Device;
Tenth Elder You Yi, martial soul Three-Tailed Ice Fox, limit Level 4 Soul Guidance Device;
Eleventh Elder Lan Qiaoqin, martial soul Three-Tailed Charm Fox, limit Level 4 Soul Guidance Device;
Twelfth Elder Gong Ya, martial soul Brain, Level 9 Soul Guidance Device;
Seeing Twelfth Elder Gong Ya really gave Jerry a pleasant surprise. He remembered that Gong Ya was only level 8 before, and now she has become a level 77 Soul Saint. Usually, Gong Ya is also a great help to Jerry; many times, the key points of problems were pointed out by Gong Ya.
Now that Gong Ya can understand the Rule Runes of a Level 9 Soul Guidance Device, it really gives Jerry a feeling of "after endless mountains and rivers that leave doubt whether there is a path out, suddenly one encounters the shade of a willow, bright flowers, and a lovely village." Originally, Jerry thought it would be good to find a few Level 8s; now that he has found a Level 9, that is even better.
Afterward, Jerry began to teach the four of them how to craft Soul Guidance Devices. Once they reached their limit, they should not learn further down; after all, things that cannot be understood cannot be crafted well.
Two weeks later, Gong Ya finally crafted a Level 9 Soul Guidance Ring.
This means that Gong Ya is already a Level 9 Soul Guidance Master.
Afterward, Jerry began to teach Gong Ya the Rule Runes for the Teleportation Array.
Actually, Jerry felt that if it were a Nine-Tailed Fox, it could at least reach the standard of a Level 8 Soul Guidance Device. But he searched all over Wuhun City, and the highest was only a six-tailed one. Jerry didn't mind and accepted them all into the Spirit Hall.
It seems only Hu Liena has nine tails. As soon as he thought of her being the personal disciple of Bibi Dong, Jerry felt a headache.
One is that Jerry would have an extra helper; the other is that Hu Liena might sell Jerry's information to Bibi Dong in the future. Between the two, Jerry is in a difficult position!
But Jerry decided to observe first, and then he arrived at the training ground of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall.
Hu Liena was sparring with Yan, and Jerry walked straight up to them.
Seeing Jerry come over, the two of them stopped sparring.
"Jerry, do you have something?" Yan said unceremoniously.
"I'm looking for Hu Liena. Hu Liena, can you go to the Research Department with me? There is something I need your help with!"
"Jerry, what bad idea are you brewing? Don't put your mind on Nana!" After Yan finished speaking, he glared at Jerry. It seems the incident from back then, where he let Yan absorb a Wood Attribute Spirit Ring, causing his soul power to become uncontrollable and injuring himself several times, still hasn't passed!
"Yan, don't worry, it's really for help. I won't let Hu Liena absorb Spirit Rings indiscriminately! Her martial soul is special; she is the only one in the entire Wuhun City, so I can only ask her for help!"
"Jerry, do you think I'll believe you just by saying that? The Great Elder's granddaughter has an even more special martial soul; why don't you go study her martial soul instead?"
"No, Yan, your misunderstanding of me is too deep. Look at how the power of your soul skill has increased now that you've controlled your soul power!"
"Jerry, I will never forget this in my entire life. Do you know what it's like to have your soul power suddenly go berserk in the Spirit Arena, burning off all your clothes while thousands of people in the audience watched? How could I possibly forget that feeling!" Yan roared.
"Yan, you can't blame me for that either. I told you not to go into battle if you hadn't controlled your soul power well. You went and followed Hu Liena to participate in the Soul Fighting all on your own, and now you're blaming me!"
"Jerry, let's duel!"
"Yan, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but you're only a Soul Saint right now, while I have the strength approaching a Title Douluo. Do you want to try?"
"Jerry, you, you, you... damn you!"
"Alright! Both of you, stop talking! Yan, I will go with Jerry to take a look! He wouldn't dare do anything to me!" Hu Liena said.
"Nana, don't trust Jerry; he's just a scammer!"
"Yan, I'm sorry. Back then, I really didn't know your soul power wasn't fully under control when I dragged you to the Spirit Arena."
"Nana, I don't blame you. It was my own choice to go to the Spirit Arena with you; it was all that scammer Jerry's fault! Don't go with him; I'm afraid he'll scam you!"
"Yan, you're going too far now. I'm helping you in all seriousness! And how am I a scammer? That was research! Look, if you don't listen to me now, you should have absorbed a Water Attribute for your sixth Spirit Ring—Water generates Wood—and a Metal Attribute for your seventh Spirit Ring—Metal generates Water. By the time you absorb an Earth Attribute for your eighth Spirit Ring—Earth generates Metal—it would be a perfect closed loop, and you would definitely be many times stronger than you are now. I guarantee it with my integrity!"
"Jerry, you have zero integrity in my eyes! If it weren't for the fact that I can't beat you, I'd want to beat you up right now!"
"Yan, accept reality! It's going to be a bit difficult to defeat me!"
"You, you, you..."
