Tang Ling expected that Joshua's projection did not disappear because of some other reason, but he did not expect that the first thing that Joshua said was that he had exceeded his expectations.
Even though it was just a projection, Tang Ling still showed an embarrassed expression. "I didn't mean to destroy this place. It's a life-and-death battle after all. "
Indeed, Tang Ling could not figure out what he had done that was out of Joshua's expectations. All he could think of was that he had caused some damage to the place and Joshua was blaming him.
"Do you think I'm blaming you for destroying this place? No, that's not necessary. You could've just damaged this place a little more and the defense mechanism would've fought you to the death. " A smile appeared on Joshua's face. For some reason, there was a sly look in his eyes.
Is this really just a projection? It's so lively. However, when Tang Ling thought about how the defense mechanism would fight him to the death, he could not help but break out in cold sweat. The more he understood formations, the more he understood how scary they were. With his current strength, he was no match for the defense mechanism.
Fortunately, the lightning and fire compound formation that he had invented was not so destructive that it would fight him to the death.
However, the topic was a little awkward. This place was kind enough to give the three of them an inheritance, yet he had destroyed it. With that in mind, Tang Ling changed the topic. "Dear Mr. Joshua, I'm here to ask about the space formation. Before we accepted the inheritance, you told me that we can use the space formation once, even though it's only for the shortest distance …"
Joshua answered Tang Ling, "Of course, but I did say that you've exceeded my expectations, so …"
As he spoke, Joshua pointed his finger and a silver pen floated up.
When Tang Ling first entered the place, he had noticed a lot of good stuff in the Universal Source Rock house. One of them was a silver pen that caught his attention.
However, the silver pen that floated in the air was not the one that caught his attention. Instead, it was a pen that was placed in a mysterious box beside the silver pen. It was a pen that was glowing brightly.
Inside the box were seven different pens. Tang Ling finally understood that together with the silver pen that caught his attention, the seven pens were probably a set of pens.
While Tang Ling was guessing, Joshua waved his hand and the floating silver pen flew towards Tang Ling, hovering in front of him.
Tang Ling recognized it as a body array pen.
It was the most important tool for carving body arrays. There was no other tool, because some of the auxiliary tools could be replaced by ordinary things. For example, the thin needle that pierced the array point at the end to connect the entire body array.
Of course, the more complicated the body array, the more tools were needed. It was naturally better to have professional tools.
But no matter what kind of body array it was, a good body array pen was the most important. It could even improve the body array.
"Mr. Joshua, this is …" Tang Ling looked at the body array pen in front of him with a natural thirst in his eyes.
His knowledge of body array tools was still lacking, but he could still recognize the extraordinariness of this body array pen at a glance.
"Your talent in body arrays has exceeded my expectations. It has already reached a point where I have no choice but to give this Silverscale Luminous Pen to you. I believe you will not disgrace it. " Joshua's projection then grumbled, "As a matter of fact, I want to leave the entire set of Silverscale Luminous Pen Set to the true inheritor."
"Too bad. If that's the case, I'll ignore your talent and stick to my original plan. It will disgrace my devotion to magic." Joshua shook his head repeatedly with complicated emotions.
For me? Tang Ling was a little surprised, but he was more delighted. He could not help but reach out to grab the floating Silverscale Luminous Pen. He felt a slight numbness in his hand as if there was a slight electric current stimulating his palm.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was a slight electric current. How magical!
"Are you really giving it to me?" Tang Ling was still in disbelief, but he could not help but play with the exquisite body array pen.
"The barrel of the Silverscale Luminous Pen is made from the rib bone of a Level 5 vicious beast, the Dark King Lightning Flash Tiger. With the buff of the magic circle, it will continuously emit a slight electric current. The slight electric current can make the hand that carves the body array more nimble, but the key is that under the stimulation of the slight electric current, the body array will have a better connection with the human body.
"You should know that the better the connection, the more power the body array can provide.
"The bristles of this brush are made from the fur of the Snow King Polar Bear, a Level Four Vicious Beast from the Land of Extreme Cold. This kind of fur is hollow and has the function of gathering energy. As you know, most of the energy of the body array comes from the materials used for the array, but it also requires the energy of the person drawing the array to guide the energy. The bristle of the pen can better channel the energy into the body array, gather the energy, and reduce the overflow of energy. You should know how important this is. "
Joshua did not bother to answer Tang Ling's silly question. Instead, he explained the benefits of the Silverscale Luminous Pen.
The more he spoke, the more surprised Tang Ling was. His fondness for the Silver Scale Luminous Pen in his hand grew.
"Lastly, there's the silver scale that wraps the pen. As a matter of fact, it only uses one silver scale. It's melted with magic and wrapped around the pen.
"Do you know why it only uses one? It's because the silver scale is too precious. It came from a mysterious Level 7 vicious beast. I don't know what kind of vicious beast it was, but I got it by chance when I was traveling.
I realized that the silver scale can automatically absorb and store energy from heaven and earth, so I melted it into the pen. There are only nine of them … "Joshua exclaimed.
He then looked at Tang Ling and said, "I believe I don't have to explain what it means to be able to absorb and store energy from heaven and earth."
Of course, Joshua did not have to explain because Tang Ling was already a beginner in body array. If the pen had its own energy, it would be able to channel more energy into the body array because the energy of heaven and earth would not be repelled by any other energy.
For example, Tang Ling's own energy could only guide the energy and could not be infused into the body array because the energy of the body array came from the materials of the body array. Most of the materials came from other living beings, so they repelled Tang Ling's energy and could not be fused together.
However, the energy of heaven and earth was different. All the energy in the world came from it, so it was natural that it could fuse with everything.
Channeling more energy into the pen was a big deal. It was equivalent to forcefully increasing the power of the body array.
The Silver Scale Luminous Pen was too precious.
Overwhelmed by his excitement, Tang Ling said to Joshua seriously, "Don't say anything else. I understand what the silver scale means. This pen is too precious, so I won't disgrace it."
Joshua said calmly, "With your talent, of course you won't disgrace it even though this pen is my proudest work! Even if it doesn't come from that mysterious place, it's qualified to be compared to the items from that mysterious place. "
Tang Ling understood what Joshua meant. It was something that only Dream Seeds would understand.
Due to the magical properties of the Silver Scale Luminous Pen, Tang Ling agreed with Joshua, so he nodded.
A smug look appeared on Joshua's face as he said, "The Silver Scale Luminous Pen is good, but it's only a level-three magic item. Magic items are divided into seven levels, and the highest level is still only level-seven. I hope you can find a better body array pen in the future."
"A better one?" Tang Ling did not have high hopes. The Silver Scale Luminous Pen was enough to surprise him.
"Yes. You're very talented. If you want to keep studying the body array, you'll need a better pen." Joshua looked serious.
"I'm very talented?" Tang Ling was not pretending. He had received the legacy alone without any comparison and no one to ask, so it was natural that he did not know how talented he was.
"Very, very, very talented. I can't explain it to you in detail here. Magic is as vast as the ocean, and every branch is worth a lifetime of study. Body array isn't my forte. I can only give you examples. Every branch of magic requires talent to learn. "
"A newbie with normal talent can only finish the first volume of body array basics in a month and reach the level of copying formation patterns. But you completed a Level 1 energy array. You should know that energy arrays are the hardest part of body array studies. It's rare for a newbie to complete it.
"Other than that, you even completed a compound energy array that's almost as powerful as a Level 2 compound array …
"Hmm, I can't comment anymore. You should find a professional body array master with reputation and fame to learn. Remember, don't give up on body array. "
Joshua looked at Tang Ling seriously when he said the last sentence. It seemed like he would regret it if Tang Ling did not improve his body array studies.
"I won't give up." Tang Ling gripped the array pen in his hand tightly. He remembered Joshua's kindness for giving him the pen even though the real Joshua was dead and the one who gave him the Silverscale Luminous Pen was just his projection.
"Fine." Joshua had told Tang Ling everything he needed to. After that, he looked at the siblings.
Ro Li was still looking at Tang Ling in a daze. Is Tang Ling really that powerful? His father asked him to follow him, and his smart sister did not object either. She even looked like she wanted him to.
Even Joshua said that Tang Ling was powerful. It seemed like Tang Ling was destined to be his boss.
"Ro Xin, Ro Li, both of you have done well in learning the legacy and your talents are outstanding. It's just that I haven't reached Tang Ling's level yet.
"Originally, you wouldn't have needed me to appear after you finished studying. However, the AI that controls this place will also give you some rewards. "
"But, since I've already appeared. In that case, I'll personally pick something suitable for you, "Joshua said kindly.
"We have it too?" Ro Xin was surprised.
Joshua's projection nodded.
Ten minutes later.
She received some puppet refining materials and a puppet refining notebook. Although it was just the most basic puppet refining notebook, it would be very helpful to her in the future.
According to Joshua, the materials were just for her to practice her skills, but she told him that the materials were already very precious. She could craft at least three puppets that were similar to the black-mantled puppets, and if she could, she could even craft a spirit-level puppet that was more advanced than the black-mantled puppets.
Spirit Level Puppet? Tang Ling did not know how to categorize puppets, but judging from how excited Ro Xin was, it must be something amazing.
As for Ro Li, he had obtained three puppets. These three puppets were formed from the fusion of the dozen or so black-robed puppets he had obtained earlier.
Joshua was just a projection, yet he was able to refine and modify the puppets himself. Tang Ling was in awe. What kind of theory was that?
"Of course, I remember all the magic techniques that I used when I was alive. Unfortunately, I'm just a projection, and my magic comes from the Universal Source Rock. If it had been me when I was alive, these three puppets would have been upgraded to spirit-grade puppets. "
"But your friend, Ro Xin, has an outstanding talent in puppetry. When she gets more familiar with puppetry in the future, all she needs to do is modify them a little and they will become spirit-level puppets."
That was what Joshua told Ro Li.
Now, even though the three puppets were not spirit-level puppets, Ro Li was still overjoyed.
He tested out the three puppets. Not only had their defense increased by a third, but their attack power had also more than doubled compared to before.
In other words, if Ro Li had been controlling these three puppets, Draconic Seven's confidants would not have been a match for him.
However, Joshua had something else to tell Ro Li. He believed that Ro Li had a talent that he could not see through, and it was currently being suppressed and restrained.
If his talent could be unleashed, his talent in magic control might be even better than Tang Ling's talent in body arraynology.
On the other hand, Puppet Control was only a small and insignificant branch of magic control. Therefore, Puppet Control was definitely not the path that Ro Li wanted to walk. Perhaps Ro Li could walk a further and more glorious path in the field of creature control.
That was the end of Joshua's instructions. The three of them had a perfect ending after entering the Ninth Ruins.
However, in the end, Joshua frowned and said to Tang Ling, "I've told you what I should. I have one last request for you guys."
One last request? Tang Ling was confused. Was there anything else that Joshua wanted to do?
"I'm just a projection without a real body, so I can't move these bodies out. You guys will be responsible for cleaning this place up. "
