The steward asked the disciple who was called Senior Brother Zhang and suffered backlash: "Do you have the secret book with you?"
"exist."
Senior Brother Zhang nodded, took out a book with a goose yellow cover from his arms, and handed it to the steward.
"This skill was specially obtained by Mother Baiyi from the Immortal Qixian in the Netherworld in order to commend me for my dedication to the Star Observation Tower for hundreds of years. When it was at its peak, all disciples of the Star Observation Tower were required to practice it.
But until a hundred years ago, for some unknown reason, this technique lost its effect. Everyone who used this method to predict fortune would suffer backlash, so they had to abandon it. "
There was regret and regret in the steward's tone. It could be seen that maybe it was just because the monk's long lifespan made him appear to be only middle-aged, but in fact he should be someone who had experienced those glorious years.
Maybe others don't understand what brilliance can be created by just transferring the damage in fate to the body.
But Jiang Lu suddenly had a realization.
If the loss of life is transferred to the physical body, then people will not be mentally exhausted. If the physical body is damaged, the monks can recover quickly and pose no threat.
People who use this technique will always be in a positive working state, thereby creating ultimate value under limited conditions.
So, this technique seems to protect these monks, but its essence seems to be to better exploit them...
"Qi Xian..."
Jiang Lu had a guess.
Isn't this an acquaintance again?
In order to verify his guess and prove that he was not a villain, Jiang Lu asked tentatively: "Boss, can you let me take a look?"
"Of course." The steward nodded and handed the secret book to Jiang Lu.
Although it is now a banned book, except that it cannot be used, as a previous textbook, its safety is absolutely no problem.
Jiang Lü is a disciple who can help Wen Tao run errands. Without even thinking about it, he must be very valued in the academy, so if he speaks, the stewards will naturally not disrespect him.
After taking the secret book, Jiang Lu flipped through a few pages, and when he saw the familiar writing style, he was finally sure.
This format, this writing that is full of traps, this kind of slogan full of benevolence, justice and morality.
It's you! The God of Contracts!
Qixian...
There are so many vests.
After confirming the author of the book, Jiang Lu did not make a move, but immediately wondered whether it was profitable.
In a normal relationship, Jiang Lu would usually choose to put aside his desire to help others and respect the fate of others.
But the one in front of them is the Star Observation Tower, which is the main force in hosting the sacrificial ceremony. Under the sect leader, the Star Observation Tower should have the most say in the sacrificial ceremony.
To be on the list for the sacrificial ceremony, in addition to having hard power, the opportunity to have a good relationship with the Star Observation Tower is not to be missed.
If he could be kind to the Star Observation Tower, and coupled with his dedication to art as a movie boy in the academy, he didn't know how he could lose in the election.
In the face of absolute relationship, any strength seems so pale and powerless!
So Jiang Lu immediately began to think about what went wrong with this technique and how to solve it.
The former is not difficult to think about. Naturally, because the god of contracts is no longer in the underworld and has gone to develop overseas, this technology will naturally be useless.
It is a matter of course that the gods overseas cannot control the immortals at home.
So how to crack it?
After resurrecting his life, Jiang Lu's ideas were not only more advanced than before, but they certainly opened up a lot.
So he immediately thought of a method——
Climb the wall!
The god of the contract is not dead, but his body is outside. In other words, the server is still running, but it is not open to domestic users. So what Jiang Lu has to do is to build a small rocket that can bridge the two worlds and realize the interoperability of beliefs. .
And this is not difficult for Jiang Lu who has the [Demon Contract Agreement].
Just copy the demon patterns on the leather paper that carries the contract content in batches, then connect them all, and then use [Open Door] to open the dimensional wall door between the devil patterns and the god of the contract, so that the translation can be achieved. Wall up.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lu did what he said, and instantly revealed a look of enlightenment: "So that senior is the Qixian?"
"That senior?" When the steward heard this, he suddenly thought of something and asked in shock: "Have you seen Qixian?"
Jiang Lu sighed: "See...I guess I won't be able to see you again."
"What do you mean?" the manager was puzzled.
"Because he is no longer in this world."
Jiang Lu smiled bitterly and said:
"I once had an adventure and got a book similar to the secret book I have now. The content in that book is more detailed than yours, and it also comes with a self-narration added by Qixian.
He said that he was about to leave this world, and he was worried that this skill would be lost, so he deliberately developed a method to make it continue to be effective. However, due to the separation between Yin and Yang, even ghosts and immortals could not come at will, so he had to give away the improved version. Entering a secret realm, waiting for someone destined to discover it in the future. "
Hearing this, the steward's breathing immediately quickened: "What about the improved version of the secret book?"
"Wipe your ass."
Jiang Lu shrugged: "I thought the author was pretending to fool people. He couldn't understand it anyway, so he just threw it in the latrine and used it as toilet paper."
"what?!"
The steward's eyes darkened: "You say that again? Toilet paper?!"
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."
Jiang Lu quickly calmed down the manager:
"Although I used it to wipe my butt, I still finished reading the content and remembered everything."
The steward was stunned: "Seriously?"
"Really, I can tell you the cracking method he said right now, but there is just a small problem."
"what is the problem?"
"Qixian wrote it in the book. Only those who are destined to use his improved method can use it, and others cannot copy it. So even if it succeeds, it will be difficult to copy it in batches without me."
Jiang Lu replied:
"And I'm not sure if this method can be successful since I haven't practiced divination."
"This..." The manager hesitated, but after thinking for a while, he said to Jiang Lu: "You try it first, what if it succeeds?"
His expectant look at this time caught everyone's eyes and they all found it a bit funny.
The steward had warned everyone not to take chances a few minutes ago, but now the boomerang had hit him in the face.
But this is understandable.
Only those who practice martial arts know the importance of this skill.
If Guanxing Tower masters this skill again, not to mention them, even Bailiu Sect will take advantage of it.
Other sects require sacrifices for divination, but Star Observation Tower does not, so there is no need to say more about who is evil.
Bailiu is the coolest!
Therefore, everyone is waiting with great anticipation for Jiang Lu to show off his power and realize the vision in their hearts.
Jiang Lu, on the other hand, was not in a hurry and asked the steward: "Can I ask the steward if you know how to use this technique?"
"Yes, when I was still practicing Qi, this skill was a compulsory course. Even after so many years, I have never forgotten it and I am familiar with it!" the steward replied proudly.
Jiang Lu nodded: "In that case, please give me a pen and paper."
The steward immediately said to the disciple beside him: "I will serve you with pen and ink."
Jiang Lu used [Super Memory] to construct the appearance of the devil's pattern in his mind, and then took up a pen and reproduced it 1:1 on the rice paper.
The steward originally thought that Jiang Lu was going to write down a method of improvement, but he never thought that he had drawn a strange pattern. He was puzzled, but he did not ask questions. He just waited quietly for Jiang Lu to finish the drawing, which was enough to give him face.
Not long after, Jiang Lu finished drawing the demon pattern, looked at it with satisfaction, and then said:
"Next, please use your spiritual power to imprint this pattern on your Dantian and Lingtai."
The steward nodded clearly, and then followed what Jiang Lu said, using spiritual power to carve the demon pattern into the Dantian and Lingtai.
"Construct a special spiritual power channel to connect the two patterns." Jiang Lu continued to give instructions.
The steward does as he is told.
"Next, I will give them the ability to reconnect with the Qixian."
Jiang Lu said, pretending to do some inexplicable actions, and then secretly activated [Open the Door].
In an instant, the talisman from the contract demon on the steward penetrated the dimensional wall and sent the signal to the contracted god far away in hell.
The two demon patterns in charge of the dantian and the spiritual platform suddenly emitted a bright light and appeared outside the body.
As an external manifestation, lavender devil lines appeared on his lower abdomen and forehead. In addition, there was also a light band that ran from the chin to the lower abdomen, leaving a strip on his neck. Vertical lines.
"This is..." The steward was quite surprised.
Not to mention other people, they all feel confused by the characteristics of power outside the system that have never appeared in their practice.
Jiang Lu smiled faintly and explained: "The patterns on your forehead and lower abdomen are called winning lines. They mean that in the dispute between monks and numerologists, they always win by one line. And this vertical line is called the blind line, which refers to stealing heavenly secrets. , concealing the truth from the sky, allowing Heaven to clearly notice the anomaly, but like a blind man, unable to figure it out."
"Yingwen, blind line? Good!" The steward sighed at the mystery: "The two words are full of heaven's secrets and show their arrogant nature. They are indeed the work of Qixian!"
Jiang Lu couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth: "Anyway, you try it first to see if it works."
Jiang Lu didn't finish his words because he was worried that theory would be theory after all, and he might still hit a wall in practice. But when his [Open Door] skill entered the CD, he was basically sure that there would be no problem with his genius design!
"Okay, let me give it a try."
The steward closed his eyes and immediately began to use his divination skills.
I don’t know what he counted, but not long after, a wound deep enough to the bone appeared on his hand.
However, the steward was not angry but happy. After opening his eyes, he exclaimed excitedly: "It's done! It's really done!"
The other disciples were all amazed and eager to practice this skill.
Compared with this kind of visible and tangible injuries, which are not worth mentioning to the monks as long as they are not dead, the loss of life makes them even more heartbroken.
Now that the cost has been transferred to the body, it proves that this improvement method is feasible.
At this moment, the steward seemed to have seen the glorious future of Star Observation Tower rebuilding its past glory!
