Mechanical Alchemist

Two days later, Sensoji Temple.

In the dilapidated hall, the light of the six-pointed star alchemy array gradually faded away.

In the center of the formation, Su Lun slowly opened his eyes, and let out a long sigh of exhaustion: "Huh, the fusion is finally successful."

Although it was the first time to integrate "Legendary" quality colonization equipment, the process went smoothly, and there were no uncontrollable or distorted unexpected situations.

This [Endless Stomach of Air Whale] is as identified, as long as the law of space is introduced, it can be successfully integrated.

Su Lun felt it for a while, and immediately noticed the changes in his body. He said to himself, "As expected of a legendary outfit, the affinity for space and the comprehension of laws have improved a lot."

This is expected, after the fusion of the reproductive equipment, some related attributes will be added passively. The stomach pouch is the biological material of the void beast, so it is naturally not bad.

Su Lun felt that the harvest was good, even if the growth outfit was really "tasteless", at least the space ability was enhanced, and the life-saving ability was also stronger.

Thinking of this, he pinched his double surgeon's seal, and the alchemy formation suddenly lit up under his feet: "Replanting Clothes Unravel!"

Looking at it again, he raised his palm forward, and a black spot suddenly appeared on his palm, and then with the infusion of dark spiritual power, the small black spot gradually became bigger. About half a minute later, a black hole the size of a fist and as deep as a starry sky formed in the palm of his hand.

In half a minute, the spell was successfully cast, and the enemy could kill him countless times.

Although he was mentally prepared, Su Lun looked at it with more or less helplessness in the corner of his eyes, and said in his heart: "Spell casting is slow and consumes a lot of mana. It's true."

Perceived again, the "black hole" is an independent space.

Even the "initial little" space described by the pupil of omniscience is as large as dozens of indoor basketball courts.

Inside, it is enough to stuff a few complete warships.

Su Lun is also very satisfied, at least he has plans to build a super-large battle mech in the future, so he doesn't have to worry about being inconvenient to carry around.

Moreover, there is still huge room for growth in the future.

It's like blowing up a balloon, how big it can blow up in the end depends on his own ability.

Su Lun thought about it, and the magician's seal in his hand changed again, and the black hole in his palm began to have a suction force, which was naturally cast [Void Whale].

As the dark spiritual power continued to pour in, the suction became stronger and stronger, forming a bigger and bigger black vortex in his palm. In the dilapidated hall, there was gradually the sound of the wind, and the wooden Buddha statues trembled faintly.

The suction power increases, and gradually it can fly sand and stones

The movement and appearance are not bad.

But the bigger the vortex, the more exponentially the dark spiritual power invested.

Su Lun's face turned pale.

It was the absorption for about one minute that consumed about 30% of his dark spiritual power, which was a terrifying amount.

But the effect is not directly proportional.

According to preliminary evaluation, this [Whale Swallow] can absorb objects within a radius of about ten meters, but both the suction power and the casting speed are very impressive.

Might be okay for picking up some dead stuff.

If he was alive, he would have run away long ago.

This has almost no offensive effect on his current level of battle.

Hmm. It's really tasteless.

For Su Lun's current position, it is probably like a tractor engine towing an aircraft carrier.

It's not useful.

But fortunately, after the comprehension of the law of space is improved, the absorption effect will be greatly improved.

Su Lun comforted himself in his heart: the future can be expected.

After the successful advancement, Su Lun didn't plan to stay longer in Sensoji Temple.

He didn't forget these two days, Chijo and Miko were still running around outside being chased by ghosts.

There have been communications in the past two days, and it is likely that they are not in danger. Instead, he tried his best to persevere, and didn't intend to disturb his advancement.

After dialing the communicator, there were thousands of slightly resentful yells: "Oh, your kid has finally succeeded in advancing! If you don't do it, we will almost be kicked out of nowhere. Come on, There is a ghost king!"

When Su Lun heard Qiantiao's tone, he also breathed a sigh of relief, at least he was safe.

After half an hour.

Su Lun ambushed in a dense forest, and in the sky, the black crow totem hovered in the air with its wings.

Not long after, I saw two familiar figures running towards them in embarrassment being chased by dozens of fangs and claws.

The group of ghosts brought a violent storm, and their momentum was frightening. The leader of the ghost king was [Red Monster]. It was the "King of the Mountain" who besieged Yuzi at the broken shrine before.

Su Lun watched the two of them run over, and with the eight-armed spider spear stretched out behind him, puppet with runes appeared in the forest.

This amount of monsters poses no threat at all.

Rushing into the woods, Qianjo saw Su Lun and shouted, "Go on!"

As she said that, she threw the imperial son who was in her arms over. Then she pulled out the demon sword with a full face of excitement, untied her six-armed armor, turned around and rushed into the group of monsters. Looking at that posture, it seems that he wants to vent all the anger of being driven all over the world these two days.

Before Su Lun had time to say anything, he watched a person fly over, his eyes twitched, but he also took the imperial son and held him in his arms.

Yuzi also knew that he was an idiot, so he stabilized his body and said with a little embarrassment: "Sorry, I caused you trouble."

Su Lun smiled and put her aside, "I'll talk about it later."

As he spoke, he manipulated the puppet to fight those monsters.

There was no suspense in the battle. After Chijo restrained the [Red Monster], those little ghosts were no longer a threat.

In this wilderness, there was no constant siege by ghosts and ghosts. Su Lun's puppet army quickly killed all those little monsters. A few minions with strong life-saving ability, ability to escape from the ground, and blur escaped, and he didn't want to chase them.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the battle was coming to an end.

Only Qiantiao and the [Red Monster] were left fighting in the dense forest, but the outcome was clearly tilted.

Obviously there is no need to help, Su Lun and Miko are watching from the side.

He watched Qiantiao's sword qi slaying indiscriminately in the red mist, and the sword qi wrapped in the demon knife caused tons of damage to the ghost king. There was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he muttered: "Sister Qiantiao, these two Tian's sword intent is so refined?"

In the past, Qiantiao's slash had very limited damage to this kind of spirit monster, and killing monsters depended entirely on the demon sword.

Now it is obvious that ordinary sword slashing will directly make the red mist fade, and the monsters killed will howl again and again.

Hearing this, Yuzi nodded, and said, "[Bodhizi] is a treasure of Buddhism, which has a great influence on swordsmen who practice hell. Sister Qiantiao has completely unsealed the demon sword in the past two days, and her sense of swordsmanship has indeed improved rapidly."

"oh?"

A look of joy appeared in Su Lun's eyes when he heard this.

Looking at it now, the value of that [Bodhi Seed] to Qiantiao is truly immeasurable.

It didn't take long for the battle to be over.

The ghost mist of [Red Monster] is getting weaker and weaker. With the talisman of the imperial child, he can't escape, and he is finally killed with a single knife.

Before Qiantiao and the two fled all the way, it wasn't that they couldn't fight back, but it was inconvenient to bring an imperial son who couldn't do anything, and they were afraid of accidental injury. It is also necessary to give those monsters some illusions, so that they will continue to send their heads.

More importantly, the Ghost King had to be left to Su Lun to devour.

Qianjo put away the knife, let out a heavy breath, and greeted Su Lun, "Su Lun, I'll leave the rest to you."

"good!"

When Su Lun saw the "gray fog" left by the ghost king, he swallowed it without delay.

"You stripped the soul of Cangshan Ghost King 'Red Monster'"

"You have comprehended some spell casting skills related to 'calling the wind and calling the rain'."

"You have received a piece of information: 'There are some ancient secrets hidden in the underground of the dilapidated shrine.'"

"You know 'some secrets of Huang Quanguo'."

"Psychic Power+"

"."

In addition to the soul fragments, like last time, the broken ghost king's evil spirit in the forest was also absorbed by the phantom of the god of death.

Su Lun instantly felt refreshed, and his perception became clearer.

Although it was not as exaggerated as the previous [Jiu Tun Doji], but he also immediately felt that the level of comprehension of the law of death has directly increased.

The phantom of the god of death behind him, the facial features are also clearer.

This feeling of skyrocketing "experience points" made Su Lun very happy.

But there was no delay.

The movement of the battle has already attracted monsters from other places, and some ghostly fogs have appeared outside the forest.

Su Lun greeted Chijo and Miko, "Let's go, let's get out of here first."

Chijo asked, "Where are you going?"

Su Lun rolled his eyes and said, "Go to Cangshan Shrine. I stripped a little information from the monster's soul just now. There seems to be something special there."

Chijo: "Okay."

The three of Su Lun headed towards the east of the city. The barren mountain with the shrine was called "Cangshan".

The head snake in Cangshan Mountain is the [Red Monster]. Now that the Ghost King has been killed, there are no troublesome monsters on the mountain, and the three of them went up smoothly all the way.

Along the way, Su Lun also said curiously: "Miss Qiantiao, I see that when you killed the ghost king just now, the sword intent of 'Drawing the Sword Hell' is already 70% or 80% similar to that of Mr. Akutagawa, you are about to enter the sword saint realm ?”

He naturally saw that even without the blessing of the demon sword, Qiantiao's sword intent had a good look.

"I do not know."

Qian Tiao also had some regrets in his eyes. He shook his head and said, "The hurdle of 'Sword Master' can only be passed or not passed. There is no such thing as 'soon to pass'. This is a difficult challenge for any swordsman. The process may take several years, or it may be close to a lifetime."

Speaking of this, she frowned, and said again: "Besides, everyone has different perceptions, and the way of swordsmanship is also different. Senior Akutagawa can guide me, but I can't completely follow his path. I always feel that I still almost miss something. Opportunity, the qi disperses but does not condense, but I don't know where the difference is."

Su Lun seemed to understand but half understood, and asked casually: "Then Bodhi is useless?"

Qian Tiao said: "It is because it is useful that I realized this gap."

"oh"

Su Lun couldn't help on this matter, and didn't say much.

The previous time I came here was in a hurry, and I didn't have time to take a closer look at the scenery on the mountain. Looking at it now, although it is desolate, there is a bit of decadence to appreciate. The stone torii has collapsed, and there are still some incomplete stone lanterns beside the road. The architectural style is slightly different from that of the gods of Shanyin today, showing ancient meaning everywhere.

The three of Su Lun were not slow, and soon arrived at the shrine.

Like Sensoji Temple, there are no ghosts to visit the shrine in the land of the underworld, so only a few dilapidated houses are left.

In the eyes of outsiders Su Lun and Qianjo, all shrine buildings are the same.

But Miko Miko is a witch. When she saw the architectural details of this shrine, she could distinguish the difference of this shrine at a glance, and said: "This is an ancient shrine. It looks like the architectural style of the shrine before the 'Great Collapse' .”

Chijo asked, "The Great Collapse?"

"Um."

Miko nodded and explained: "Our Shinto religion has a heritage, saying that a long, long time ago, there was a 'big collapse' in this world, which led to the collapse of the plane and the fall of the gods. But the time is too long, I also know Not much. I just know that Shinto was prosperous before that, and the gods would come down from time to time to preach and teach. So the architectural style of the shrine has some special styles.”

Hearing this statement, Su Lun immediately guessed that it was probably the battle of the gods that collapsed in the Dawn Era, the "disappeared history" when this alchemy plane was smashed to pieces.

But did not get more useful information.

Su Lun even felt that the real underworld should have no shrines or temples. It is because Hayato Fujiwara wrote it.

It seems to have some special symbolic meaning.

He looked at the shrine, looked thoughtful, pointed to a house and said, "Come on, let's go in and have a look. There is a basement inside."

In the memory of [Red Monster], it is because of this basement that it has been entrenched here.

The three of them came to a side hall that should be. Looking at the stone floor, Su Lun pointed to a floor tile: "It's right below."

Miko looked at the layout of the hall and said, "This should be the 'Treasure Hall'. It is usually used to visit shrines and treasures."

Qianjo also became interested, "Is there really a treasure?"

Monsters are ghosts that can penetrate walls and burrow into the ground, but the three of Su Lun can't.

Fortunately, Su Lun is proficient in various construction machinery. He dug out some mechanical parts and quickly assembled a steam drill with a threaded drill bit. As soon as the steam boiler was started, the drill bit pointed at the ground and drilled violently. The soil rolled out and got in quickly.

After drilling to a depth of more than ten meters, the machine broke through the brick roof of the underground palace.

Su Lun heard the special sound of gravel and said, "Let's go down."

The three jumped down.

There is not much space in the underground palace, and it is pitch black. When the magic lamp is lit, a golden statue of a god comes into view first.

The statue is glaring, its whole body is red like a flame, and it is holding a sword and magic weapon. The most eye-catching thing is the eight thunder drums with jade patterns on its back.

The imperial son recognized it at a glance, and exclaimed: "This is the incarnate golden body of the "Jian Yu Lei Shen" great venerable! "

Su Lun had known for a long time that there was such a statue here, so he wasn't surprised.

Hearing Yuzi say the name, the introduction about this god in the classics immediately appeared in his mind.

This is the god who is regarded as the "God of Thunder" and "God of Swords" by the residents of Shanyin.

Although not as famous as Amaterasu, he is also a god of the same generation and has a high status. It is said that it is related to Izanami's death and has some connection with him.

In Su Lun's previous memories, the red monster has been entrenched here because the statue has a special "divine power" that can help in cultivation.

But Su Lun looked intently for a moment now, but he didn't see any tricks, but the all-seeing eye identified the word "a statue containing the remnants of the divine way".

But after perceiving it, the remnant didn't make him, an alchemist, see anything special.

Su Lun thought that Yuzi knew, so he tilted his head and asked, "Miss Yuzi, what is the golden body?"

Yuzi explained: "It is said that before the Great Collapse, Shinto flourished. If the gods want to descend to the realm to bless the believers, they will descend on the golden statues of gods made by some believers. These golden bodies usually retain the divine power of the gods."

"oh."

After listening to Su Lun, he still felt that this thing had nothing to do with him, and it probably had some use for Yuzi.

But suddenly, he felt a storm-like sword intent erupting around him.

"Huh"

When he turned his head to look, Qiantiao's expression was extremely serious, and his eyes were like lightning as he stared at the god. She put her hand on the demon knife, and the phantom of the six-armed Rakshasa appeared behind her.

Taking a closer look, she can see a layer of protective energy condensed by sword energy lingering on her body surface. And that layer of stellar energy, like a beating thunder snake, gradually exploded with traces of thunder.

Su Lun immediately realized what was going on: "The sword qi turns into a gangster, and the domineering sister Qiantiao is about to become?"

What's more, it's not just domineering, the sword intent of the hell way is also like a volcanic eruption, so strong that people stand beside her and feel the sharpness is compelling. The evil spirit of "Ghost King Baimu Zongzheng" in her hand leaked out like a tide, and a phantom of a snow-white thousand-eyed centipede wrapped around her left arm.

Looking again, the [Magic Bodhi Seed] hanging around her waist is shining brightly, as if it is protecting her mind again.

The corner of Su Lun's eyes twitched, thinking of something, he thought, "Is this an epiphany?"

The epiphany of Buddhism is inexplicable, impenetrable, mysterious and mysterious.

That's it.

"Jianyu Leishen" is the god of swords and swords, and the "remnant spirit of the gods" contained in the golden body of the statue probably became the little opportunity that Qiantiao finally lacked to step into the "Sword Master".

Yuzi looked at the vision on Qianjo's body, exchanged glances with Su Lun, and smiled gratifiedly.

I don't know how long this process will last, and the two of them didn't bother her, and moved away silently.

The size of the underground palace is not small, and the two walked to the other side of the statue.

Su Lun thought of something, and whispered: "I remember there are some Shinto stone murals on the wall."

As he spoke, he took the magic light source and shone it.

Although the pale yellow light is not bright enough, it also illuminates a piece of lifelike relief.

Su Lun didn't need to look at it to know that the above content was similar to the "Kagura Dance" action and sacrifice scenes. These things are of no use to him.

But Yuzi, who was standing aside, saw the content of the mural clearly, but she seemed to have seen something incredible, and the shock on her pretty face could not be concealed.

She hurriedly covered her mouth and exclaimed, "This is the untold secret of our Shinto priestesses before the Great Collapse—the 'Dance of Gods and Witches'!"

Miko saw these stone carvings, as if a responsibility had come to her, she quickly checked all the murals, and said in shock: "My God, we only left a few fragments of pictures in Iga Shrine, here are twenty Four complete pictures!"

It was the first time for Su Lun to see Yuzi lose his composure, and asked, "Is this secret technique powerful?"

"Um."

Yu Zijing's eyes trembled with light, and she didn't hide anything from Su Lun. She said excitedly, "It can be said that the inheritance of our Shinto priestesses almost all comes from the content on this stone slab. This way... can reach the gods!"

"Miko" is a profession,

"Zaiwang" is status,

And "Sorcerer" is the level of strength.

These few pictures are more precious than those seen in the royal family before.

Hearing this, Su Lun thought to himself: "This Huangquan Kingdom is really full of treasures."

He looked at Yuzi's joyful expression, and felt in his heart that the chance was too coincidental.

But what he was even more emotional about was that the great writer and adventurer, Hayato Fujiwara, really collected a lot of treasures!

Chijo fell into an epiphany in front of the statue of "Jianyu Raijin", and Yuko discovered the secret method on the stone slab of the underground palace. Both of them fell into a state of extreme obsession, and it seemed that they would not be idle for a while.

Su Lun was the only one who suddenly had nothing to do.

He wandered around the underground palace, found nothing else useful, and got out.

Thinking about staying in this shrine for a few days, Su Lun arranged some barriers to isolate the atmosphere for the underground palace. I pray that there will be no big monsters to disturb before Qianjo's epiphany is over.

After finishing all this, Su Lun opened his notebook again, and on the sketch of Huangquan Kingdom he drew, he drew a mountain and wrote the words "Rundown Shrine".

There is a ghost town in the center, Sensoji Temple in the south, and Izanami's shrine in the north.

Su Lun wrote down a few more notes in his notes, analyzing all the possibilities of going out.

Although coming to the "Nation of Underworld" this time, I have gained a lot.

But he didn't forget that if he really couldn't get out, no matter how many treasures he had, it would be useless.

The three of them, and the treasures they carried, will add some more treasures to this world.
