Chapter 353

With Gu Caiyi's recovery, Luo Chen's time suddenly opened up.

The refining of Jade Dew Pills and Blood-Burning Pills, for him who had now achieved great success in alchemy, actually didn't take much effort.

Therefore, Luo Chen put this extra time into other things.

One was the improvement of his combat methods!

It wasn't just as simple as brushing up spell proficiency.

He moved the Duan family's classics on controlling techniques with artifacts from the library of the Luo Tian Society's Merit Hall.

Studying them daily, he attempted to master this means.

Another was the research into the Ghost God Heart-Questioning Mirror.

Although this treasure was incomplete, it still retained a portion of its power.

With the Rotten Lanke Black Chess in hand, Luo Chen's exploration of this treasure was relatively much safer.

But it was only relatively!

Every few days, Luo Chen would fall into its illusions from time to time.

Short for a moment, long for two or three days.

So much so that every time he woke up, Luo Chen would be a bit dazed and confused.

This scene truly frightened Gu Caiyi and Bai Meiling.

"Are you really okay?"

During lunch one day, Gu Caiyi asked worriedly.

Luo Chen stiffened for a moment, then waved his hand.

"Don't worry, I have already found the corresponding shortcut to control this treasure."

"Shortcut?" Gu Caiyi was puzzled, "Are there shortcuts to controlling magic treasures?"

Luo Chen nodded and said casually: "The Heart-Questioning Mirror is the sect-protecting treasure of the Ghost God Valley, gathering the essence of arrays and illusions, using this to guide the cultivator's primordial spirit and consciousness into it to conduct deduction and simulation."

"If you want to control this treasure, you either need master-level array attainments or you must learn the corresponding compatible illusion techniques."

"The core of the illusion techniques covered by this object is a Tier 3 illusion technique called 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon'."

Gu Caiyi became interested and asked: "Could it be that you know 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon'?"

"I don't know it, but I have the original copy of this spell and know how to cultivate it."

You even have the original copy of a Tier 3 illusion technique?

While Gu Caiyi was surprised, Bai Meiling on the side said with a giggle:

"Sister Caiyi, I also have the cultivation method for 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon'!"

Luo Chen smiled and didn't explain too much.

He indeed had the cultivation method for this high-level illusion technique in his hands.

It originated from the "Ghost God Secret Record"!

Ghostly spirits and evil spirits are either fierce and vicious or confuse people's minds, causing people to fall into traps without knowing it.

As a core Tier 3 ghost cultivation technique, the "Ghost God Secret Record" naturally also had spells that could confuse and tempt.

It was precisely Mirror Flower, Water Moon!

However, as a Tier 3 spell, the difficulty of cultivation was naturally extremely high.

If a Foundation Establishment cultivator wants to learn it, they must first master three Tier 2 spells.

"It's actually very similar to Mountain Collapse; both are fusion spells, and the power will naturally be greater!"

To cultivate "Mirror Flower, Water Moon," one must first learn the Tier 2 water-type spell Water Mirror Art, the Tier 2 wood-type spell Flower Fairy, and a soul secret technique called Soul-Confusion Art.

Only when these three are combined can one calmly release Mirror Flower, Water Moon, making people sink into illusions.

Of course!

Luo Chen's goal was not to learn a powerful illusion technique.

He only wanted to master the Ghost God Heart-Questioning Mirror through this spell.

Therefore, there was no need to be very profound; just barely mastering it would suffice.

The cultivation of the three basic spells was not very difficult.

Water Mirror Art is a semi-auxiliary spell that most Foundation Establishment cultivators learn to some extent.

After Foundation Establishment, cultivators can release their spiritual sense.

But what spiritual sense can detect is almost a kind of feeling; the specific situation is very blurry.

Therefore, by using the Water Mirror Art, the specific situation is displayed as a picture, which can be viewed directly.

Luo Chen had once seen many Foundation Establishment cultivators or Core Formation cultivators perform this technique to view the scenes within their spiritual sense range from afar.

The reason he didn't cultivate it after Foundation Establishment.

Was because his pair of spiritual eyes could see extremely far, so naturally, there was no need.

Now that he wanted to cultivate it, it wasn't difficult.

After all, this spell is extremely simple; it was only because of the prerequisite of releasing spiritual sense that it was barely listed as Tier 2.

As for Flower Fairy, it is a wood-type spell, which wasn't difficult for him either.

The final Soul-Confusion Art is somewhat wonderful; it is a kind of application for the primordial spirit.

But for Luo Chen, it actually wasn't difficult either!

The reason lies in the fact that this technique has the same wonderful effect as the Soul-Deterrence Art that Luo Chen had learned long ago.

It's just that the Soul-Deterrence Art leans towards being overbearing, forcibly deterring enemies.

The Soul-Confusion Art is different, leaning towards being gentle, with confusion and induction as the main focus.

The core of the Ghost God Heart-Questioning Mirror is arrays and illusions.

Using the power of arrays to maximize the illusion power, inducing cultivators to make deduction simulations within a logical range under illusions.

Mirror Flower, Water Moon is the core of the core.

Luo Chen doesn't understand arrays, but he can take a shortcut to control this treasure by mastering the core illusion technique.

Once mastered, in the future, this incomplete magic treasure won't just be for his own use; it can also be applied to others.

Learning this Tier 3 illusion technique didn't take Luo Chen much time.

He only needed to combine them after initially mastering the three prerequisite spells, and he could slowly release this illusion technique.

It naturally wouldn't work for fighting enemies.

But if it were for his own people, he would have enough time to perform this technique.

"My spell talent is truly terrifying; now even Tier 2 spells, I can easily master, and even Tier 3 spells, as long as I have the exact cultivation method, don't seem to be difficult for me at all."

Inside the quiet room.

Luo Chen's hands were incredibly agile as he cast one spiritual incantation after another, spiritual power surging from his body to outline mysterious trajectories.

In front of him was the floating bronze mirror.

About the time of an incense stick!

The technique was complete!

The bronze mirror emitted a yellowish light, which drifted onto Luo Chen.

At the same time, a black light radiated from Luo Chen's bosom, enveloping his entire body.

The next moment.

Inside the bronze mirror, Luo Chen's figure appeared.

"Mirror Flower, Water Moon is complete, I have also mastered this treasure; next is to help Gu Caiyi reach Foundation Establishment first!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly.

Half a year later, under his care, Gu Caiyi successfully reached Foundation Establishment.

At the same time, on the Jilei Nine Mountains battlefield, the situation became increasingly urgent, and major sects constantly sent core true disciples to join the battlefield.

Even the Peach Blossom Ancestor of the Hundred Flower Palace appeared on the battlefield a few years later.

As a result, the Seven Sects of the Jade Tripod fully participated in the war!

This also meant that this war would cover the entire Jade Yu Yu Dingyu; from top to bottom, no one could stay out of it.

"Reporting to the President, our Luo Tian Society's garrison stronghold has suffered heavy losses and is in urgent need of support!"

"What does the Ice Fortress say?"

"They are overwhelmed and unable to provide assistance."

"Is that so?" Luo Chen, who was sitting in the high position of the Luo Tian Hall, narrowed his eyes slightly, "Very well, I will make a trip to the Jilei Nine Mountains myself!"

After speaking, he leaped up.

Several years had passed, and he had already stepped into the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, becoming a true Great Cultivator of the late Foundation Establishment stage!

Powerful spiritual energy fluctuations swept along as he escaped.

Flying in the air, Luo Chen pondered how to lead the Luo Tian Society out of this quagmire of war.

Just as he was pondering, he suddenly frowned.

The next moment, the corners of his mouth suddenly lifted.

"Almost fell for my own trick!"

A smile appeared, and he casually swung a sword.

The sword light was crimson, but within the red was a deep, pitch-black color, and vaguely, the phantom of a chess piece was slowly falling.

As the sword fell, the chess piece fell.

The space in front of him shattered layer by layer like glass mirror fragments.

A profound fluctuation expanded slowly like rippling water.

And Luo Chen's figure also dissipated bit by bit.

Inside the quiet room.

Luo Chen's body trembled, and he opened his eyes faintly.

Reaching out to summon it, the Ghost God Heart-Questioning Mirror fell into his hand.

Luo Chen's expression was dazed.

"No matter how many times I experience this incomplete magic treasure, every time it always makes me exclaim how magical it is!"

"Just now, I clearly took the initiative to perform Mirror Flower, Water Moon to guide the Heart-Questioning Mirror, but I didn't expect to bring myself into it as well."

"Almost had to simulate another few decades or a century."

Luo Chen shook his head, stroking the treasure, a look of reluctance appearing on his face.

In such a simulation, the passage of long years is but a snap of the fingers.

After several experiments, he actually gained great benefits.

His primordial spirit foundation had increased even more than from insisting on taking the top-grade Deep-Penetration Pills all these years.

As of now, his cultivation base was at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, but his primordial spirit foundation had already exceeded most eighth-level Foundation Establishment cultivators.

It seemed to be only a step away from powerhouses like Tao Wan at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.

After forcibly passing through the Ghost God Heart-Questioning, there would naturally be corresponding rewards!

The growth of the primordial spirit is a blessing!

But soon!

Luo Chen flipped his hand and put away the bronze mirror.

"Although this treasure is good, it is clearly not to be used frequently."

"If this continues, one will inevitably be trapped deep within it, leading to a loss of spirit and soul dissipation!"

Luo Chen took a deep breath and cut off that touch of greed.

In recent days, he had been acting dazed and confused, and even his alchemy had failed many times.

This was extremely rare in his cultivation career.

Especially the failure of alchemy!

With the system as a guarantee, his success rate was always controlled very well, and there shouldn't have been those unexpected failures at all.

The culprit was precisely the result of indulging in the Ghost God Heart-Questioning Mirror too many times.

"Not just me, the cultivators under my command can at most use the Heart-Questioning Mirror once or twice; they can't withstand this treasure even more."

Luo Chen made up his mind that this treasure must be used with caution.

He left the quiet room.

Luo Chen greeted Xiao Ling and left Tianlan Peak.

He headed straight for the Dao-Discussion Platform.

When entering the Jade Tripod Sword Pavilion, Luo Chen's footsteps paused.

Looking at those sword sect disciples who were still working normally, he subconsciously frowned.

In this great war that almost affected the entire Jade Yu Yu Dingyu, the Sword Sect was clearly a party involved, but it seemed that apart from the actions within the battlefield, they were like nothing had happened outside the battlefield.

Do they not care about winning or losing at all?

No one answered his question.

All there was, was a Qi Refining disciple of the Sword Sect warmly greeting him.

"Senior Danchenzi, Senior Chu has been waiting for a long time."

Luo Chen nodded, casually rewarded a few spirit stones, and headed straight for the training ground.

That's right!

He had made an appointment for a sparring partner!

It was precisely Facing Chu Kui; one sparring session cost ten thousand spirit stones.

The price was high, and he also hoped it would be worth it.

When he met Facing Chu Kui, the other party was drinking wine and eating fairy beans.

"You're here!"

"Sorry to trouble you."

Facing Chu Kui waved his hand and said boldly: "What trouble is there? You paid, Big Boss. Moreover, after I advanced to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, I also wanted to familiarize myself with new combat methods; this business of yours is like a pillow for my drowsiness."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Doesn't that mean I'm also your sparring partner? Since that's the case, this price..."

Facing Chu Kui was stunned.

"Haha!"

Luo Chen laughed loudly and stepped into the spacious training ground.

"Come on, everyone's time is tight, so don't delay. Brother Chu, please give me some pointers!"

Facing Chu Kui looked at Luo Chen, who was ready for battle, and his eyes lit up.

"Very well, I also want to know the methods of the Fire Spirit Lord who is famous on the banks of the Qinhua River!"
