Chapter 43 is all made up
Today is September 8th and the weather is cloudy.
Bai Mo is a man of action. He decided to help his second uncle last night, and he must help!
It has nothing to do with profit sharing or anything like that, it’s just because he’s a fun person…a helpful person.
At the Blue Light Magic Potion Shop, facing the pretty lady at the front desk, Bai Mo asked:
"Hello, give me a bottle of Soul Moon Potion."
The Moon of the Soul is a magic potion launched by Blue Pass Company that is specifically used to find one's past memories. It is also the most effective one on the market.
The spiritual power contained within is as gentle as moonlight and can be easily mobilized to explore the past in the depths of memory.
"Handsome guy, our Blue Light medicine has launched a new product - the Memory Refreshing Series. It can sort out your memories in an orderly manner just like reading a computer file, allowing you to see every scene of your past in front of you. Would you like to try it?"
The lady at the front desk took out a box containing the Soul Moon potion, and then took out another box with similar packaging but more exquisite and recommended it.
Enhanced version?! Bai Mo was slightly surprised, so he simply nodded, asked the price, and paid directly.
But the young lady took out another bottle of medicine labeled memory foam and put it in the gift bag. Seeing him looking at it, she smiled and explained:
"This is memory foam potion. It can help you forget some memories that you often think of but are difficult to talk about. I give it to you!"
Bai Mo nodded, knowing that this thing could trap some of the more socially fatal memories, such as entering the wrong restroom, losing control after drinking, taking the wrong path at certain critical moments, etc., so that they would not pop up again.
He has never used it and doesn't need it.
Go back and give it to Bai Hanxing. The person he dated last time seemed to be his high school teacher.
Wouldn't this form a courtyard?
After returning home, he drank the potion, skillfully used his mind power to find his memories of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, and then wrapped them up with the power of the potion. Those pictures then jumped into his mind.
Then, he transformed into a ruthless typing machine.
In the evening, rubbing his sore hands, Bai Mo suddenly thought, it would be great if those psychic researchers could develop a device that could convert memory images into text.
He wanted to go out for a walk and go to Qingtian Hunting House to ask Lingling about the Void Fantasy Stone to see if she knew about it.
He is still very curious about this.
Lingling was still the only one in the hall downstairs in the Qingtian Hunting House. Old Man Bao didn't come out often, as he seemed to like his room more.
"What are you doing here? There are no missions that require you to go out recently." Lingling said.
There are often some tasks in the hunting grounds to find pets or people. The bounty is usually not too high, but it also reaches the starting price of the hunting ground.
Lingling usually relies on her computer skills and intelligence to do them herself. Of course, that's during the holidays.
She spent more time at school, so her assignments would often become overdue.
"No." Bai Mo shook his head and went to stand at the bar, sorting out some expired commissions while asking, "Do you know the Void Stone? Lingling."
"Illusionary Stone?" Lingling lowered her head and thought for a while. "I seem to have seen this name somewhere. It should be a cultivation resource. But I'm not a mage, so I don't care. What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I'm just a little curious. You're right, it's a resource that helps cultivate spiritual power."
Bai Mofa briefly talked about how he used up the Void Stone last night.
"It sounds like it's related to the Psychic Mage." Lingling thought for a moment, and a hint of interest appeared in her eyes. "I'll help you check it out."
"Okay." Bai Mo nodded, and then asked, "Is your sister still investigating the matter of the demon's blood?"
"Well, she hasn't been in the Magic City these days." Lingling shook her cup, and the ice cubes made a clinking sound.
Bai Mo walked over and filled her cup of lemon tea, then sat down beside her.
Raising her little head, Lingling asked, "Do you have any plans for your contracted beast?"
"Just go with the flow. It's hard to find elemental creatures with high bloodline levels, so why bother choosing?" Bai Mo stretched his body lazily and said casually, "Besides, my summoning system hasn't even reached the intermediate level yet."
"What do you think of the earth element?" Lingling continued to ask.
Bai Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing something was wrong. Lingling usually didn't have so many questions, so he asked in surprise:
"Have you found the right one? Earth type?"
"I'm not sure yet." Lingling said, "I found someone on the hunter website saying that traces of a juvenile God Dust Tiger were found in the Dabie Mountains. The news was posted by an apprentice hunter, and according to his profile, he's a rookie who just graduated from a magic high school, so I can't be sure whether the news is true or not."
"Divine Dust Tiger!" Bai Mo was a little surprised. Ever since he awakened the summoning magic, he has read many books about various monsters and summoned beasts. Naturally, he knew the information about the Divine Dust Tiger.
The Shenchen Tiger, also known as the South China Tiger, has the blood of a high monarch and the earth attribute, and is known as the king of the earth.
Unlike the little-known Kunlun Ancestral Tiger, the Shenchen Tiger, the Northeastern Demon Sealing Tiger, the Tianshan White Tiger, and the Southwestern Holy Light Tiger, which are more famous tiger monsters, are collectively known as the Four Major Tiger Tribes in Kyushu.
However, they are rare in number and like to stay away from human habitation. Even though they are famous, it is difficult to find their whereabouts, let alone their cubs.
What Bai Mo didn't expect was that Lingling actually got news about the Shenchen Tiger cubs.
Then he frowned and said, "The Dabie Mountains are very large, and there are many demon tribes. How can we find them?"
"There are many difficulties, and we have to solve them one by one. Now, I am not sure whether this news is true or not."
Lingling raised her hand higher and patted his shoulder. She said in a condescending manner, "Young man, work hard on your cultivation, or you will let the duck in your mouth fly away."
"Besides, demons with monarch-level bloodlines that are not cultivated by summoners grow slowly. You still have time."
Bai Mo thought about it. Lingling was right. The key now was to find out where it was.
As long as he is sure, even if he is not strong enough, he can ask others for help, he has a family behind him.
Six days later, Bai Mo sat in front of the computer and sent The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber to his second uncle. If possible, he would let him adapt the script and help him register the copyright. If not, he would help him distribute it. He remembered that the banker had a fairly large publishing company.
At noon, in an authentic Sichuan restaurant, Bai Mo looked at Ding Yumian, who had already drunk two glasses of cold water across from him, and smiled.
"It's spicy, right? What did I say? This one is really authentic." Bai Mo glanced at her empty cup and picked up the cooler beside her, "No more!"
"Boss, give me three cans of milk."
Ding Yumian stared at him silently without saying a word, and waited until the boss brought the milk before looking away, staring at the several dishes in front of him that looked very appetizing.
"It's really new. I've never tasted this flavor before." She took a sip of milk and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to ask me something?"
"Oh, right!" Bai Mo nodded. He was just busy watching the show. "Do you know the Void Stone?"
Hearing Bai Mo's question, Ding Yumian glanced at him and nodded, "You have used the Void Illusion Stone, no wonder."
"What's the wonder?"
"I feel like your mental strength has suddenly increased a little."
Blinking his eyes, Bai Mo asked curiously: "You can feel this too, how do you feel it?"
"You don't know?" Ding Yumian looked at him sideways.
Bai Mo shook his head in confusion: "I don't know!"
"Yeah." Ding Yumian nodded and said, "I won't tell you. It's a secret."
"Okay, we can always talk about the Void Stone." Bai Mo shrugged and said, "I'm curious about how there are life memories in the Void Stone, or whether it is life memories that do not exist in reality at all."
Hearing this, Ding Yumian nodded slightly, took another sip of milk, looked at him, and slowly began to tell the story.
"The Void Stone was originally provided to high-level and above psychic mages for cultivation. After reaching high levels, the control of magic becomes more proficient, and psychic mages gradually divide into clear schools.
The more common ones are combat-oriented mind mages, who focus on conquering the enemy in order to guard against the enemy's powerful magic.
The second type is the mind mage who mainly tames animals. There are more of these in the military, and they mainly tame wild monsters.
Finally, there are illusion-type mind mages, who use their abilities to break into the depths of other people's minds, weaving scenes of joy, sadness, or fear to crush their enemies from within."
Bai Mo nodded, "So, the so-called life memory in the Void Stone is the work of an illusionist mind mage?"
"Yes and no." Ding Yumian shook his head and continued to explain to Bai Mo:
"As I said, the Void Stone is provided for the cultivation of psychic mages. All psychic mages, no matter which path they choose, will actually cultivate one or two of them. The Void Stone is only more effective for illusion-type psychic mages."
"We use this special stone to weave stories about everything from trivial things to life events. This forms what you call life memory.
This will help us better understand the power of our mind, and at the same time, it can also play the role of the Void Stone now, training a person's mental strength."
Ding Yumian took another sip of milk before continuing.
“And when the psionic ability of weaving stories is filled with the Void Stone, the psionic mage uses some means.
It has become a cultivation resource currently used in the market that can help people train their spiritual power through dreams."
"Is that so? Then this stone has no real memory of life?" Bai Mo asked curiously.
"Yes!" Ding Yumian nodded affirmatively, filled his empty cup with milk, and then said:
“It’s too laborious to weave stories by yourself, and it’s very draining on your mind, so apart from illusion-type mind mages, there are many other options.
Other types of psychic mages usually write stories based on some literary works, but it is not easy either. It often takes half a year to get a fantasy stone.
Therefore, in the early days, this special stone was placed in the body of another life in a special way, and marked. It would automatically record the life of the life placed in it, which is the real life memory. The wizards would wait until the life died before taking it out, and the effect was better than making up their own stories. "
After saying a lot, Ding Yumian took a sip of water and continued:
"There are also people with bad intentions who forcibly decide the life and death of others, using mages as containers to produce this resource. It is listed as a forbidden technique.
After that, this method was mostly used to select the most heinous prisoners in prison, and more often to select wild animals, plants, and the like. "
"However, more ancestors chose to put the Illusionary Stone on themselves to record their lives and then bless the younger generations. But the Illusionary Stone is also a precious resource. Not everyone will, is willing to, or can do so."
"So, this method of injecting real life memories takes a long time, so most of these illusion stones are left by our ancestors, and after the later generations have enjoyed them, they also need to leave a batch for the later generations."
After listening to Ding Yumian's words, Bai Mo nodded, guessing which lousy psychic mage had created the illusion stone he used yesterday.
"Speaking of which, if the stories in a fantasy stone are all about cultivation experience, secret techniques, combat skills, etc., is it possible that it will affect the user?"
"I don't know, but it shouldn't be possible." Ding Yumian looked at him steadily, shook his head, and then added:
“But there is a story recorded in the book about a noble who paid a high-level psychic mage a large sum of money to customize a story.
The story is very simple, that is, he relies on his high emotional intelligence to linger among all the beauties from ancient times to the present, and is surrounded by them. He also gave the story a name, called "I am surrounded by beauties!"
I heard that he wanted to change his son's misogyny, but failed in the end. "
After Bai Mo heard this, there was only one word on his face: Six.
Then he looked at Ding Yumian again, with a strange expression on his face, "Then is there a possibility?"
"No!" Before he could finish his words, the girl opposite interrupted him and glared at him.
In order to dispel Bai Mo's unrealistic ideas, Ding Yumian said:
“The deeds of that nobleman inspired many people, so many not-so-serious stories were circulated in the market during that period. In the end, because the leaders of multiple forces were involved, the act of writing stories was banned.
On the other hand, the psychic mages found that making up such stories was not very effective and would pollute their own minds, so they would no longer do such things. "
"I didn't say anything. What do you mean by emphasizing this?" Bai Mo looked sad. "I'm so pure, how could I think about that?"
"You'd better!" Ding Yumian glanced at him.
Bai Mo blinked innocently and changed the subject.
"Then do you know where this kind of stone comes from?"
"Do you know the phantom snake?" Ding Yumian asked instead of answering.
"Is this thing related to the Void Snake?" Bai Mo thought of the snake he encountered during his training last year. "I encountered one before. It attacked me by surprise, but I chased it away. Unfortunately, I didn't catch it."
"It should be in its infancy. It should be attracted by the spatial aura on you."
Nodding, Ding Yumian continued, "After the Void Snake grows to the Commander level, every time its strength improves, it will find a cave and shed a layer of snake skin."
"Commander-level creatures are mostly large in size, and the Void Snake is no exception. After it sheds its skin, it will leave the cave where it lives and find another place."
"So the Konghuan Stone is actually the skin of the Konghuan Snake?" Bai Mo had a strange expression on his face.
"No." Ding Yumian shook his head. "The slough of the illusionary snake carries a strong power of space and mind, which will infiltrate the surrounding land as time passes.
It formed a special ore, which was then mined and refined by humans. This is the origin of the fantasy stone."
"Oh..." Bai Mo nodded and understood.
Put a bowl and ask for a ticket
