Chapter 240: Master Zhang's Visit
Chapter 240: Master Zhang's Visit
The testing of the combinations of Heavenly Dao Cloud Patterns progressed very quickly. After only more than 8,000 tests, Wen Rui had already figured out the talisman arrangement codes for the other two great magical powers of the Hunyuan Banner.
These two magical powers are the Hunyuan Invisibility Technique and the Hunyuan Five Elements Shield.
Wen Rui himself also developed optical camouflage and spiritual reflection layer technology, which makes his nano Iron Man armor have a good stealth effect.
However, this invisibility ability is only effective against cultivators below the immortal level. If an immortal opens his third eye, or an enlightened person in the Western religion activates the Alaya consciousness, their invisibility will be seen through.
The Hunyuan invisibility technique can work on immortals and can even hide from the detection of the Alaya consciousness. When it is activated, it blocks all non-direct contact observation methods.
Only Wen Rui's nanorobot fog can detect it indirectly in the form of tracers.
The Hunyuan Five Elements Shield is a thin film constructed with the Hunyuan Qi. Any Five Elements spiritual energy, no matter what kind of magical power it is, once projected onto the shield, will be decomposed by the Hunyuan Qi and assimilated into the true essence of heaven and earth, thus causing the magical power to dissipate.
These two great Hunyuan magical powers are invincible. The only drawback is that they will continuously consume the Hunyuan Qi when they are activated, which is equivalent to constantly wasting life for Wen Rui.
At this point, Wen Rui has learned three great magical powers from the Hunyuan Banner. Even if he returns the Hunyuan Banner, he can still use them anytime and anywhere with his Hunyuan cyber body.
The benefits are not limited to this. After completely testing more than 40,000 cloud pattern combinations, in addition to three talisman arrangements with clear effects, Wen Rui also found three cloud pattern arrangement talismans that are effective, but the effects are rather strange and cannot be called magical powers.
For example, the first type of cloud pattern arrangement talisman, after introducing the Hunyuan Qi, can change the color of Wen Rui's skin. Fortunately, this color change can be controlled by thoughts, otherwise it will be a big trouble if the color cannot be changed back after changing.
The second type of cloud pattern talisman can create an object randomly. The randomly created object may be a priceless imperial seal, or it may be a pile of mud or a weed. There is no pattern to follow at all.
The third type of cloud pattern talisman can randomly increase or decrease the spiritual energy contained in Wen Rui's body. However, the lowest level is to clear the spiritual energy to zero, and the highest level is not more than the maximum amount of spiritual energy that a mortal body in the Qi training stage can carry.
The effects of these three unexpected cloud pattern arrangement codes are not very useful, but their significance is extraordinary.
This proves that if we can obtain more basic cloud pattern diagrams and continuously reverse test and decode them, we can slowly master the complete code of the Heavenly Dao Cloud Pattern. The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques and the Seventy-Two Earthly Evil Techniques contained in the three volumes of the Heavenly Book can all be reproduced one by one.
However, there is an unknown number of basic diagrams and seals in the Heavenly Dao Cloud Pattern, and the forms of arrangement and combination are also countless. Some combinations may use dangerous codes that will instantly turn you into ashes, regardless of whether you are a god or a Buddha, and your form and soul will be destroyed. This path of self-development is definitely not that easy.
Of course, getting the three volumes of the Heavenly Book directly would save the trouble of self-development, but the three volumes of the Heavenly Book were the highest secret in the Heavenly Palace, and only the Jade Emperor was qualified to read them, so it was not so easy to get them.
The Heavenly Book is a precious book bestowed by Hongjun Daozu to the Jade Emperor to suppress the destiny of the Heavenly Court. Several saints only glimpsed part of it and could not read it completely.
Even if Wen Rui is deified and becomes a celestial official in the future, he won't even have the chance to peek.
In the future, there may be an incident where the Book of Heaven is stolen and spread to the human world. The immortal who stole the book will surely have a miserable end, and the Book of Heaven will be recovered by the Heavenly Court immediately.
Under numerous restrictions, one can only use the clumsy method of relying on luck and taking the time to test slowly. If by chance one detects a great supernatural power, then one will make a profit.
If it cannot be detected, it will only consume some clones that can be mass-produced.
Anyway, the clones that Wen Rui used for testing were all clones. No matter how they committed suicide, the original bodies would not die. Compared with some of the life-saving Hunyuan Jinxian, they were more suitable for experimental conditions. Wen Rui's retreat this time was not long. It was only less than 3 years before it was interrupted by Jarvis's reminder.
It turned out to be Master Zhang from Zi Yang Immortal Sect who came to visit. What he wanted was that the mortgage period of the Hun Yuan Banner had expired, and Zi Yang Immortal Sect had repaid the last debt, so he came to claim the sect's most precious treasure.
Wen Rui naturally had no choice but to say something. After receiving the notice from Jarvis, he took the Hunyuan Banner and went to the reception room, and formally returned the Hunyuan Banner to Master Zhang.
After the transaction was completed, Master Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. He then had the heart to sit down with Wen Rui to drink tea and chat, and they talked about the recent news in the world of immortal cultivation.
"Brother Wen, I was wrong before. Now I know that you have boundless magical powers and great magical powers. Please forgive me if I was disrespectful in the past."
Master Zhang was as reserved as a humble junior, obviously having heard Master Zi Yang talk about how Wen Rui killed a Western arhat with one finger, and how he used a great magical power to throw the Dharma body of the Ming King into the sun.
"Hey, Brother Zhang, we have known each other for more than a hundred years, and we have always been like friends. It's a bit too formal to treat each other like this now."
Wen Rui waved his hand and said with a friendly smile: "Brother, how could you be disrespectful to me? You just didn't hear how those Jindan juniors ridiculed me. I don't care at all."
Zhang Zhenren immediately gave a thumbs up and flattered him, "You are a noble young man from a wealthy family. Your vision and bearing are truly incomparable to that of a rural vagrant!"
After saying this, he lowered his voice and said, "I send my regards to you on behalf of the Purple Sun Sect Master. The Purple Sun Sect Master asked me to pass on a message, saying that if you take any action in the future, you must send someone to inform him. He will definitely cheer for you and follow your lead."
Wen Rui narrowed his eyes, thinking that this must be because Xue Bao and Chang Qing Zhenren received great rewards from the Heavenly Court, one was promoted to general, and the other was promoted to an official.
True Man Zi Yang and Fairy Han Yuan gained some false reputation and rewards, and they were jealous. So they tried hard to make friends with Wen Rui, hoping to get on his good side and get a position in the Heavenly Court in the future.
Before the relationship with the Heavenly Palace is used and its effects are revealed, the major sects in the mortal world are only skeptical.
At best, it's just superficial respect, not wanting to offend Wen Rui to death, but he will never take the initiative to curry favor with him.
Now, two clan leaders have indeed been promoted to high positions because of Wen Rui's actions. Seeing is believing, and others cannot help but believe it, so they think of coming to him to establish a relationship with him.
Arrogant at first but respectful later, so hypocritical!
Wen Rui did not immediately agree to anything, but just smiled and asked: "Judging from your attitude, I guess the rewards from Sect Master Xue and Master Changqing have already come?"
"Sect Master Xue appointed Yunlou Palace's Imperial Arms Supervisor as the Formation Breaking General! Master Changqing appointed Huayao Palace's Imperial Medicine Supervisor as the Deputy Envoy!"
Zhang Zhenren said with a slightly disappointed tone: "This is a position that requires eight lifetimes of cultivation to be able to obtain. The Jinting Immortal Sect and the Yuding Immortal Sect can be said to be honored and happy this time."
At this point, Master Zhang changed the subject and asked curiously, "Just before entering the gate of the Jinling Sect, I saw fairies coming and going in the buildings nearby. What's going on? Is Brother Wen planning something big again?"
