The process of making the ink not only consumed soul power and Zhen Yuan, but it also consumed a shocking amount of energy. Lin Tian stared at the ball of liquid in front of his chest with all his concentration. He controlled his True Yuan and Soul Force to slowly adjust the liquid in front of his chest.
Rumble!
The liquid was about the size of a fist. As Lin Tian poured his Zhen Yuan and soul power into it, the liquid gradually shrank and some black sticky substance fell out. This sticky substance was the impurities that would be produced when making the ink. It was equivalent to the waste product of refining several materials.
Lin Tianyi carefully poured his Zhen Yuan into the liquid while operating the Heavenly One Soul Secret Art. He carefully maintained the liquid. During this process, he was using an appropriate ratio of Zhen Yuan and soul power to fuse the liquid in front of his chest. This was a very precise process. Even a small mistake could lead to failure.
Gradually, the sweat on Lin Tian's forehead became denser. The consumption of his Zhen Yuan and soul power was very serious. It was also at this time that the ratio of Zhen Yuan and soul power that he poured into the liquid became a little chaotic.
"Not good!"
Lin Tian thought to himself.
Maintaining the liquid in front of his chest, Lin Tian quickly restored the ratio of Zhen Yuan and soul power. Unfortunately, after making a mistake, it was too difficult to restore it. As a result, he made several mistakes in succession.
Chi!
With a light sound, the liquid in front of his chest shattered and spilled all over the floor.
Lin Tianxin's heart was bleeding as he looked at the liquid that splashed on the floor. That was eighty spirit coins! It was enough for an ordinary family to live a stable life for seven years. But now, eighty spirit coins were gone in an instant in his hands. This made him sigh again. The cultivation of an array controller was really burning money. Who could afford it?
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian closed his eyes and operated the Four Extremes Scripture and the Heavenly One Soul Secret Art at the same time to restore his Zhen Yuan and soul power. At the same time, he recalled the process of making the ink and concluded the reasons for the mistakes. Progress in failure. This was a principle that Lin Tian had learned in his previous life. Therefore, he was not discouraged.
The sky had completely darkened, and the curtain of night had enveloped the earth.
Lin Tian didn't rest. Relying on the candlesticks he bought, he continued to practice making ink in the pavilion. After summarizing his first failure, Lin Tian's second attempt at making Yan Mo went a little smoother. Unfortunately, it was only a little smoother than the first attempt. This time, he still failed.
"One hundred and sixty spirit coins."
Lin Tian smiled bitterly.
After the second failure, Lin Tian did not continue to use the materials to make the mixture. Instead, he used his mind to deduce the process of Yan Mo's mixture. He repeatedly summarized and corrected the previous two failures.
Very quickly, an hour had passed.
Opening his eyes, Lin Tian's eyes flashed with a bright light.
"Again!"
He said in a low voice.
The tendons of the Hundred Leaf Grass and the Spirit Incense Sulfur were quickly squeezed into a liquid. Then, he mixed the liquid with the Black Demonic Wolf Bone Marrow that he had prepared beforehand. He injected his True Yuan and soul power at the same time and fused them in a specific ratio. Gradually, drops of black viscous substance dripped onto the ground.
Lin Tian was completely focused. He had never been so focused before. He stared at the fist-sized liquid in front of his chest. After summarizing his two failures, this time, he was exceptionally proficient. Everything proceeded smoothly. After a quarter of an hour, the fist-sized lump of liquid in front of his chest had shrunk to half its original size.
It was also at this time that a faint halo of light appeared.
"It's done!"
Lin Tian was pleasantly surprised.
He used his True Yuan to control Yan Mo in front of his chest and carefully placed it in the glassware that he had prepared beforehand. Looking at the liquid in the glassware, there was a faint tri-colored light flickering with a hint of magical charm.
"This is Yan Mo. It's really extraordinary."
Lin Tian was slightly excited.
The third attempt was finally a success!
Putting away his excitement, Lin Tian carefully put away the glassware in which Yan Mo was placed. Then, he began a new round of Yan Mo's mixture. He had purchased a total of ten sets of materials. Now, he had used up three sets. There were still seven sets waiting for him to refine.
Time passed by. Soon, the stars were hidden, and the morning sun shone on the earth.
In the top pavilion, Lin Tian wiped the sweat off his forehead. There was a satisfied look on his face. There were six glassware in front of him. Each of them contained the same tri-colored liquid. They were all Yan Mo. In one night, he had successfully mixed six sets of Yan Mo.
"Phew!"
Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Lin Tian exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. He carefully put away the six glassware.
After a whole night of Yan Mo's mixture, Lin Tian was still somewhat sleepy. After putting away the initial scroll and Yan Mo, he walked down from the top pavilion and prepared to rest for a while.
Time was precious to him now. He hoped to produce the Martial Fusion Pattern as soon as possible. However, he also knew the principle of "more haste, less speed." If he forced himself to practice as a Matrix Manipulator with tiredness, the failure rate would be extremely high, and a lot of materials would be wasted.
After facing the morning sun and breathing for a while, Lin Tian walked into the house and took a nap.
He slept for six hours.
After six hours, Lin Tian woke up. He found some food on the wooden table beside his bed. The food was very simple, but there was a faint fragrance.
Looking at the food, Lin Tian's eyes became gentle. He was too familiar with the food. With a glance, he knew that it was made by Lin Xi. Thinking about it, when Lin Xi woke him up after cooking, she found that he was sleeping. She felt that he was very tired, so she didn't disturb him. She only put the food beside his bed.
Lin Tian chuckled. She was really a considerate little girl.
After getting out of bed, Lin Tian quickly digested the food Lin Xi prepared for him. After cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks, he once again went to the top pavilion.
He had already completed the first two steps of the Matrix Manipulator practice, making the initial scroll and Yan Mo. Now, there was only the last step left. The last step was to use his true essence and soul force to thoroughly understand the runes on the initial scroll with Yan Mo. Then, he would create the finished Martial Fusion Rune. Then, he would integrate the power of the martial skill into it.
The strength of the martial skill determined the final value of the Martial Fusion Rune scroll. Simply put, if the power of a low-grade Body Transformation martial skill was integrated into the Martial Fusion Rune, the final scroll would be a low-grade Body Transformation Martial Fusion Rune scroll. If the power of a mid-grade Body Transformation martial skill was integrated, the final scroll would be a mid-grade Body Transformation Martial Fusion Rune scroll, and so on.
Of course, the degree of Martial Skill power that could be fused into the scroll was also related to the quality of the Martial Fusion Marking that the Array Controller inscribed. If the quality of the Martial Fusion Marking inscribed was ordinary, the Martial Skill power that could be fused into the scroll would not be too strong. The value of the finished Martial Fusion Marking martial skill scroll that was created at the end would naturally not be high.
Sitting cross-legged in the top pavilion, Lin Tian closed his eyes and searched for the Martial Fusion Rune in his mind. Then, he began to seriously deduce it. He used his mind to comprehend this kind of formation pattern. In his mind, the tiny Martial Fusion Pattern was instantly magnified countless times. Every basic pattern, every arc, every corner, everything became clear.
The Martial Fusion Rune was composed of six patterns that were connected to each other to form a whole. It was beautiful, but it also had a special charm. Lin Tian's soul force was extremely strong. In addition, the Martial Fusion Rune was the simplest of the basic runes. So, it only took him a day to completely comprehend the rune.
"Now, it's time for the final carving."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Comprehending the rune didn't mean that he could easily carve it. It wasn't the same thing. Compared to making the initial scroll and refining the Yan Mo, the third step of carving the rune was undoubtedly more difficult. It was dozens of times more difficult than refining the Yan Mo.
After resting for a while, Lin Tian didn't directly use the refined Yan Mo and the initial scroll to carve. Instead, he took out simple paper and ink and began to practice drawing the Martial Fusion Rune. The initial scroll was fine, but the Yan Mo was frighteningly expensive. It was also very difficult to make. Lin Tian didn't dare to directly use the Yan Mo to carve the rune.
Lin Tian thought that he would first rely on the simple paper and ink to practice carving the Martial Fusion Rune. When he was able to draw the Martial Fusion Rune with ease, he would then proceed to the true final step and use the Yan Mo to carve the rune on the initial scroll. This way, he could at least minimize the failure rate.
As soon as he thought of it, Lin Tian mobilized his True Essence and soul force and began carving.
The carving of the rune didn't use a pen. Instead, it used True Essence and soul force as a guide. It relied on the Yan Mo to draw the rune on the initial scroll and turn it into a finished product. Lin Tian bought a thick stack of white paper and ordinary ink. He used his True Essence to draw out a blob of ink and poured his soul force into it. He seriously practiced.
Time passed day by day. Soon, five days had passed.
During these five days, apart from the necessary rest and meals, Lin Tian had been practicing carving the Martial Fusion Rune with ordinary paper and ink. He had used up nearly a thousand pieces of white paper. Lin Tianyi didn't feel any heartache regarding this. These pieces of white paper only added up to two spirit coins. Compared to the cost of purchasing other materials, this was really nothing.
On this day, Lin Tian prepared to truly begin the final step.
"Weng!"
A faint brilliance lingered around his body. Sitting cross-legged in the pavilion, Lin Tian simultaneously circulated the Four Extremes Scripture and the Heavenly One Soul Secret Art. He only stopped when his True Essence and soul force reached the optimal level.
"Begin!"
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian's eyes flashed with a deep light.
Opening the initial scroll, Lin Tian's right hand slightly moved. His True Essence and soul force circulated at the same time. Suddenly, the Yan Mo in the container beside him all flew out and gathered in his right hand. Looking at the Yan Mo in his hand, Lin Tian seriously recalled the feeling of carving the Martial Fusion Rune with ordinary paper and ink. His right hand slowly lowered.
At this moment, various hand seals and formation patterns appeared in his mind. Accompanied by a swishing sound, a Dao pattern as sharp as an eagle's claw appeared on the initial scroll. As Lin Tian's arm moved, it slowly extended. After thousands of ordinary practice, Lin Tian was already very familiar with the carving of the Martial Fusion Rune.
Soon, the first basic pattern of the Martial Fusion Rune was completed. At this time, Lin Tian didn't stop what he was doing. He gently flicked his five fingers, and the pattern on the initial scroll suddenly changed its angle. A new pattern connected to the first pattern at the same time as it began to appear in another arc and slowly extended.
"Very good!"
Lin Tian couldn't help but feel satisfied with his performance.
After five days of repeated practice, there was finally an effect.
Without being careless, Lin Tian concentrated and continued carving the Martial Fusion Rune. After an hour, he had already completed three fifths of the Martial Fusion Rune.
