Chapter 28: Purification of Demonic Power
Hearing Zhang Yang's question, Wang Mumu did not show any confusion, but thought for a moment before speaking: "Village Chief, I'm afraid this is difficult. Do you think that if you copy the battle pattern on my body and then use demon blood to draw it, you can copy the battle pattern?"
"Isn't that the case?" Zhang Yang was stunned. He really thought so at the beginning.
"Of course not. Oh, actually, before I got the mountain monster battle pattern, I thought the same as you, village chief. Everyone would think so, but things are not that simple. The battle pattern you see now is only less than 20% of the complete battle pattern."
“In my own perception, the power of this battle pattern flows in my blood, in my bones, in my flesh, and even here—” Wang Mumu pointed to his head, “everything is branded with the secret of this battle pattern. I may never understand this secret in my lifetime, but it will not affect my perfect release of it. This is a power that I cannot describe. So, Mr. Village Chief, you should understand now that this battle pattern is not something you can draw whenever you want.”
Wang Mumu's words left Zhang Yang stunned for a long time, and then he admitted that he had thought things too simply. At first glance, it seemed very simple for Wang Mumu and the others to obtain the battle patterns, as long as they were compatible, but in fact, the village construction order also played a huge role here.
If it was so easy to copy the battle pattern, then the deer demon, being so smart, would have done it long ago.
"Go back and rest first. I'll think about this carefully."
After giving the order, Zhang Yang closed his eyes and began to think. He certainly would not give up on this matter so easily. Even a fool could see the importance of this battle pattern and even the talisman.
Everything he has now was earned at the cost of many lives and cannot be replicated.
He had no idea what the future would be like. Currently, he had less than eighty men under his command, including the new recruits. Was he going to continue to risk human lives to carve out a way to survive?
Or was he hoping that the enemies he would encounter in the future would be as powerful as the Level 1 Blue Wolf, Level 5 Red Eagle, Spider Lord, and Bighorn Deer Lord? Impossible. In this fantasy world, there would be many people bound to the Village Building Order. Each bound village chief would definitely encounter low-level monsters at first. Then, as they continued to expand their territory and as time passed, it was destined that these village chiefs would encounter each other and fight each other. The dead would turn into mud, and the living would become stronger.
This is the most easy to understand truth.
And that’s not all. Is this fantasy world covered by endless primeval forests?
That's impossible. What if this primeval forest that seems to be full of dangers is just a novice village?
Finally, what if every person bound to the village building order does not appear in this world at the same time, or because some village chiefs died halfway, there will definitely be a situation where Village Chief A has completed 20 years of operation time, but Village Chief B has only been online for ten years, and Village Chief C has just come online.
This is very scary because it will lead to an extremely cruel war between man and machine.
Therefore, Zhang Yang had to find a way to accumulate at least ten times, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times the advantage in order to allow his village to survive the 280-year cutscene.
Based on the above reasons, based on Zhang Yang's 981 predecessors who died without a complete body, and based on the fact that the code of Earth civilization has been deciphered for almost a quarter, he can be 100% sure how cruel and terrible this world, or the many worlds formed by the village building order, will be! He can't think of developing with the inherent thinking mode, nor can he hope that the unknown enemy will give him enough time to develop. He must seize every opportunity to become stronger and consolidate all his foundations, at all costs, well, except not selling his soul.
After a long time, Zhang Yang suddenly opened his eyes and took out a unit of wolf demon blood from the village building order space, about 100 milliliters, which was wrapped in an invisible air bag. This is an effect of the village building order space, which can perfectly ensure that the material will not deteriorate.
"The blood of the wolf demon, according to the village construction order, contains a weak demonic power and can be used to draw talismans and battle patterns."
"From this sentence, I can get three hypotheses."
"Hypothesis 1, if talismans and battle patterns are the embodiment of some kind of power, and the source of this power is the demonic power contained in demon blood, then I can find a way to purify this demonic power and just draw some talismans on anything, will it become talismans and battle patterns? Obviously not, hypothesis 1 does not pass."
"Hypothesis 2, if the most important thing about drawing talismans and battle patterns is skills and a certain matrix pattern, as long as you follow these skills and matrix patterns, it will be like an electronic circuit with its own rules. The demonic power is just a kind of energy like electric current. Then is this the secret of talismans and battle patterns?"
"Hypothesis 3. It is impossible for all demon powers in this world to be the same, because they have different properties, so there can't be unchanging drawing rules. Then is it possible that when facing ordinary demon powers, the drawing rules are standard, just like electronic circuits, while the drawing rules of special demon powers must be changed around the changes in demon powers."
"Conclusion. Since I don't know how to draw talismans and battle patterns, and no one has taught me the rules of drawing, can I reverse the reasoning and tailor the drawing rules based on the range of changes in demonic power? After all, logically speaking, demonic power must have come first in this world, and then the drawing of talismans and battle patterns. I am just following an old path now."
"Then, there is only one problem in front of me. How can I purify the demon power from the demon blood and fully master its changes and properties?"
Zhang Yang asked himself and answered himself. The answer was self-evident. Of course, he used the soul force field. In the soul force field, he seemed to be in a world completely controlled by himself. Even if he was not a god, he must be a false god! Doing things as soon as he thought of them was never Zhang Yang's good style, but now, he was like a clockwork. He didn't even think about whether to take a break and started the experiment directly! The soul force field was released instantly and maintained steadily within a diameter of three meters. Zhang Yang was now more and more satisfied with the control of this force field. Unfortunately, this kind of soul force field did not show any proficiency, and he didn't know whether he could advance through such proficient control.
"Do you want to take out one unit of wolf demon blood? Once confirmed, the village construction order space will no longer provide accommodation support for it."
A piece of information was mapped out. This was a reminder of the village construction order. Zhang Yang chose to confirm it. Almost in an instant, the blood of the wolf demon that seemed to be wrapped in an invisible air bag fell directly. However, in just 0.1 seconds, his soul force field perfectly wrapped it up. This was not a difficult task. After all, he could make the five-kilogram spear of confinement fly at the speed of sound in the soul force field.
After wrapping the wolf demon's blood, Zhang Yang immediately felt the unique fishy smell and stickiness of the demon blood in his soul, not through his nose or touch. This was magical, but he did not focus on it. Instead, he used the soul thread to begin to separate the demon blood more finely, just like combing wood fibers.
In the blink of an eye, the 100 milliliters of demon blood were separated into 10,000 tiny blood drops in Zhang Yang's soul force field, and this was the limit of what he could do. Fortunately, this was enough to complete Zhang Yang's previous analysis, because his soul thread began to touch something quite dynamic.
Even though he had never come into contact with it before and had no information to tell him what demonic power was, Zhang Yang was still 100% sure that this was demonic power.
To describe it vividly, it's like a bouncing ball that never stops, or a strong heart.
When Zhang Yang tried to capture these energetic things with soul threads, he found that the difficulty was beyond his imagination. Even though he used half of the soul threads to capture them, he still got nothing in the end. Those things were too energetic, jumping around all the time, which made him hate them so much.
With no other options, Zhang Yang could only choose to use all of his soul threads, not hoping to capture all of the demonic power, but only to encircle a small strand.
Finally, after several encirclements and suppressions, he was successfully captured. However, at the same time, the soul force field could no longer support him and disappeared directly. Zhang Yang collapsed to the ground exhausted, and the remaining demon blood was wasted and spilled on the ground. In a blink of an eye, he returned to dust.
At this moment, unexpectedly, the information of the village construction order was reflected.
"Successfully purified 0.1 units of low-level demonic power, available for sale."
“Quality: Trash.”
"To further purify it into mana that can be used directly through the golden scale, 1,000 energy points must be paid."
