"Spell of Substitution," Shen Luo said.
"Spell of Substitution?" The Fox King was puzzled.
"It was originally an unorthodox technique used to block a calamity. With some modifications, it can be used to transfer Red Boy's Demon-Soaking Orb and restriction to another person," Shen Luo said.
He had learned this method from Lin Da, the Altar Master of the Divine Lotus Altar.
When Shen Luo saw it that day, he had already memorized the formation's appearance. However, in the present world, his talent was limited. Although he could barely remember the formation's appearance, he could not understand the wonders within.
Now, in the Dream Realm, he had figured out the key points and could even make it more perfect.
However, he was only 30% confident that it would work if he used it to transfer restrictions and Demon-Soaking Orb.
"Tell me more about this method. I will make a decision after listening to it," Bull Demon said solemnly.
"If you want to use this method, you must first have a vessel. It must be someone whose cultivation level is similar to his or who is slightly higher than his. Then … "Shen Luo explained in detail.
"This method … might really work," Bull Demon muttered to himself for a long time before he finally said.
"Everything else is fine, but where can we find someone whose cultivation level is similar to Red Boy's? After all, once he becomes a vessel, the only outcome is death, "the Fox King said.
"I will solve this. You don't have to worry. Shen Daoyou, when can you set up the formation and perform the Substitution for my son? "Bull Demon said after thinking for a while.
Shen Luo frowned and pondered for a moment. Then, he said, "This Substitution Array was created by me. It can't be used directly. Some adjustments and changes must be made. In addition, some special materials need to be prepared. Three days should be enough."
"Okay, I will leave Jilei Mountain first. I will be back on time in three days," Bull Demon said.
"Father …" Red Boy said worriedly.
"You'll be fine. Just wait here at ease." With that, the Bull Demon strode out of the Cloud Scraping Cave.
"Senior Fox King, please arrange a quiet room for me," Shen Luo said.
"No problem. Xiao Yu, take Shen Daoyou to my seclusion room." The 10,000 Year Fox King said as he threw out a white jade token.
"Alright." Lil 'Yu caught it and replied.
Finished speaking, he led Shen Luo into the depths of the Cloud Scraping Cave.
…
At night.
Shen Luo was sitting in the stone room with his legs crossed. A circle of fluorite was shining on the surrounding walls, making the entire stone room snow-white.
In the middle of the stone room, there was a three-foot square sand table. It was filled with sand that was as white as fine salt. At this moment, as his fingers danced, platforms of sand about an inch high were condensed on the sand table.
"Lin Da's formation will borrow the merits of many eminent monks to offset the punishment of the Heavenly Axiom. Red Boy doesn't need to do that. However, he still needs at least six cultivators in the middle or later stage of the True Immortal Realm to control the formation and assist in transferring the Demon-Soaking Pearl and the prohibition on it …" Shen Luo looked at the sand table in front of him and muttered to himself.
As he spoke, he turned his wrist and the platforms in the middle of the sand table collapsed one by one. In the end, only seven platforms were left. One was in the middle, and six were on the sides.
"However, since Bull Demon has the cultivation of the Taiyi Realm, it doesn't matter even if there is one less cultivator to assist him. If there are too many people, it will be easy to make mistakes." Shen Luo continued to talk to himself.
He raised his hand and waved it again. Immediately, two more platforms on the sand table disappeared. Only four platforms were left, guarding the four directions in the north, south, east, and west. The platform in the middle was suspended in the air and floated in the middle.
"This formation still needs to be combined with the Yin-Yang Reversal Formation. It needs two magic treasures with the same attributes as the formation. The Sea Suppressing Steel Staff can be one of them, and the Sea Calming Pearl can be the other. What's left is to complete the formation …"
After Shen Luo finished speaking, he raised his finger and began to draw in the air. Lines of deep and shallow talisman arrays began to appear on the sand table.
…
Time flew and three days had passed.
In a relatively flat valley in Jilei Mountain, a large area of forest had been cleared. A square altar with a radius of several hundred feet was built in the middle of the valley.
In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight rose in the valley, the altar was already surrounded by people.
Shen Luo's back was facing everyone while he held the Sixwing Dawn Whip in his hand, and he was concentrating all his attention on inscribing talisman markings on a stone pillar at the center of the sacrificial altar. His forehead was covered in fine sweat, and his eyes were bloodshot.
He had been engraving talisman patterns here since last night. Although he had drawn more than a hundred times on the sand table, in order to ensure that there was no mistake, he deliberately slowed down his speed and engraved it bit by bit.
When the last talisman pattern was closed, he put away the Liuchen Whip and slowly stood up. He let out a long breath.
Bull Demon, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately led Red Boy forward and asked, "How is it?"
"It's done." Shen Luo nodded with his eyes slightly bloodshot.
"Shen Daoyou, thank you." Bull Demon looked dignified and cupped his fist.
"It's okay. Now you can bring Red Boy here. In addition to you and me, we also need the assistance of two Late-stage Genuine Immortals. "Shen Luo waved his hand and said.
"I'll go with you." The Fox King responded.
"One more person." Shen Luo nodded and said.
"If it must be a Late-stage Genuine Immortal, I wonder if a ghost cultivator can do it?" Bull Demon hesitated.
"As long as the realm is satisfied." Shen Luo said.
"Okay." Bull Demon raised his hand and rubbed a purple jade inlaid in the center of his belt.
A purple smoke floated out from the purple jade and quickly condensed in the void, turning into a young man wearing a bamboo hat and black clothes.
"Master." After the young man appeared, he immediately cupped his fist and greeted Bull Demon.
"Qing Mang, follow me to set up the array in a while and listen to the command of Shen Daoyou." Bull Demon ordered.
"Yes." The young man responded and then cupped his fist and bowed to Bull Demon and Shen Luo respectively.
Shen Luo returned the bow and secretly praised in his heart. A Taiyi cultivator was indeed extraordinary. Even the ghost cultivator under his command was at the Late-stage Genuine Immortal Realm.
"Since everyone is here, we can start. Where is the vessel for the tribulation substitute?" Shen Luo asked.
Hearing this, the Bull Demon King raised his hand and took out a palm-sized pouch from his sleeve. He opened the pouch and softly chanted a few words to the ground. A green light gushed out from the pouch and a human figure fell out from it.
Shen Luo looked carefully and found that it was a middle-aged man in a gray Taoist robe. His figure was no different from an ordinary person, but his appearance was strange. He had a black nose and two droopy ears on the top of his head. He was a demon.
A circle of yellow cloth was coiled around his body, and talisman characters were densely written on it. Not only did it lock down his limbs, it even blocked his mouth, causing him to only be able to whimper dryly and be unable to speak a single word.
