"I'll give it a try!" Xia Ruofei said without hesitation.
Brush, ink, paper, and inkstone were all ready-made. Xia Ruofei went directly to the table, picked up the brush, and began to draw the diagram after some thought.
In a short while, Xia Ruofei was done.
Under normal circumstances, these two diagrams would require a lot of time to deduce. Furthermore, one would need to be extremely talented in mathematics to be able to draw them. Especially the 20-line diagrams, which required the help of a computer. However, these diagrams were in Xia Ruofei's mind. He did not need to think at all. He could just draw them.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang held the two pieces of paper with ink stains on them and looked at them carefully for a long time. Finally, he confirmed that Xia Ruofei had really drawn the 18 and 20 lines of diagrams.
He said in a surprised tone, "Mr. Xia, you are really amazing. I admire you very much! I wonder if Householder Xia can draw more lines of the atlas? "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "In theory, it is possible to arrange more lines of diagrams. However, it requires a lot of time to deduce. I can't do it in a short period of time."
Xia Ruofei knew that it was possible to deduce more lines of diagrams using a computer. 20 lines was not the limit. However, he had never seen such diagrams before. Therefore, he knew when to stop. He could not deduce it on the spot. Besides, he did not have the ability to do so.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei had heard that more lines of diagrams were not limited to two-dimensional space. They needed to be arranged in a three-dimensional space. Old Taoist Zhen Yang might not be able to understand them if they were drawn on a piece of paper.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang smiled and said, "It's okay. Mr. Xia's performance has already exceeded my expectations!"
"Does that mean that I can get an extra reward?" Xia Ruofei asked with a smile.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang nodded and said, "Of course!"
After that, Old Taoist Zhen Yang paused. Then, he said seriously, "Mr. Xia, thank you for solving a problem that has been troubling me for many years! In order to express my gratitude, I have a few gifts for Householder Xia! "
Xia Ruofei was suddenly energized. The mission reward was about to be given out! Naturally, he would not decline politely because he did not know if the NPC in front of him would really not give him any rewards because of his refusal. If that was the case, then he would really want to cry but have no tears.
"Thank you!" Xia Ruofei said with a bright smile. He then looked at Old Taoist Zhen Yang expectantly.
With a flip of his hand, Old Daoist Zhen Yang took out a long wooden box from his storage magic treasure and handed it to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei took the wooden box and opened it. He found that it was a flying sword that looked like autumn water. The blade was as thin as a cicada's wing, and it emitted an incomparably sharp aura.
This flying sword was obviously something good, but Xia Ruofei was a little disappointed.
The reason was simple. He had already tried to use flying swords in this Arcana Dungeon. No matter how good a flying sword was, if one could not control it, its usefulness would be reduced by 90%. It could only be used as a relatively sharp weapon. Using one's psychic power to hack at it would be a waste.
If this was on Earth, Xia Ruofei would be very happy to receive such a flying sword. However, in this Arcana Dungeon, improving one's survival skills was the most important thing. Besides, he already had a flying sword. If he had another one, he would just leave it in the Ring-Tu space and collect dust. It was basically useless.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang seemed to have noticed Xia Ruofei's disappointment. He smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, this sword is called 'Qu Shuang'. Its biggest feature is that it can be used normally in this small world."
"Thank you so much, Taoist …" Xia Ruofei said absent-mindedly. Then, he came back to his senses. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, "What? This Qu Shuang sword can be used here? "
Old Taoist Zhen Yang smiled and nodded. "Yes! Of course, the prerequisite is that Mr. Xia can master this sword's special sword-controlling technique. Right, the technique is also in the box. Mr. Xia can take a look first! "
Xia Ruofei quickly put the flying sword aside and picked up the wooden box. Sure enough, there was a piece of yellowed paper in the box. Xia Ruofei had been so focused on the flying sword that he had not noticed this piece of paper.
Xia Ruofei carefully picked up the piece of paper and looked at it carefully. It was indeed a sword-controlling technique.
This technique was clearly designed for the Qu Shuang flying sword. Perhaps it was also designed to adapt to the special rules of this Arcana Dungeon, so it was very different from the sword-controlling technique Xia Ruofei had mastered before. When Xia Ruofei looked at it for the first time, he could not understand it at all.
However, Xia Ruofei was not discouraged. On the contrary, he was very excited.
Although he could not understand the sword technique immediately, he could tell that if he mastered this technique, he might be able to control the Qu Shuang flying sword in this Arcana Dungeon.
More accurately, as long as he mastered this technique, he could theoretically control other flying swords as well.
Of course, if the Qu Shuang flying sword was specially made for this Arcana Dungeon, it would definitely be more compatible with the rules of this place. On the other hand, other flying swords made on Earth might be able to be controlled with this technique, but it would definitely not be as easy as controlling the Qu Shuang flying sword.
Xia Ruofei did not care that Old Taoist Zhen Yang was beside him. He grabbed the piece of paper and studied it carefully. From time to time, he would release his spiritual power to simulate it.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang did not rush him. He just stood there and watched with a smile.
After about half an hour, Xia Ruofei's eyes lit up. He had finally mastered the technique. It could be said that he had a basic grasp of it.
Xia Ruofei could not wait to try it out. So, he first made the Qu Shuang flying sword recognize him as its master. Then, he silently used the technique he had just learned. Very quickly, he successfully established a connection with the Qu Shuang flying sword.
The Qu Shuang flying sword, which had been placed on the table, suddenly seemed to come alive. It hummed softly and wobbled as it floated up into the air.
Xia Ruofei tried to control the flying sword and made a few movements. He realized that the technique could be used. What he lacked now was proficiency. He believed that as long as he practiced, he would be able to use the flying sword as he had on Earth.
Cultivators had a very strong learning ability. Controlling a flying sword was not a particularly complicated technique. As long as he mastered the technique, it would be relatively easy to increase his proficiency.
Xia Ruofei's face was filled with excitement. Being able to use a flying sword in the Arcane Realm meant that his chances of survival had increased by a lot.
Furthermore, being able to control a flying sword meant that Sword Kinesis Flight was also possible.
In other words, he would be able to use Sword Kinesis Flight for the rest of his exploration of the Arcane Realm.
This was much better than using his feet to measure the boundless space of the Arcane Realm.
Furthermore, being able to use Sword Kinesis Flight meant that his ability to escape had increased by a lot. This was undoubtedly a great advantage for Xia Ruofei.
"Thank you for your generous gift!" Xia Ruofei sincerely bowed to Old Taoist Zhen Yang.
Even though Old Taoist Zhen Yang was just a puppet, the reward this time was very useful to Xia Ruofei. Therefore, his gratitude came from the bottom of his heart.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang smiled and waved his hand. "This is what Mister Xia deserves."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "There is one more gift, but I can't return it to you for the time being. This will be honored later. I'll give the other gift to Mister Xia first. This is an extra gift for Mister Xia's completion of the third difficult question! "
Even though Xia Ruofei did not understand why the second reward could not be honored for the time being, when he heard that the reward for the additional question was going to be honored, his spirits were immediately lifted. His heart was filled with anticipation.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang took out another treasure from his storage magic treasure and casually handed it to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei took it and looked at it. He could not help but reveal a hint of curiosity. The shape of this treasure was very strange. It looked like a pair of glasses. The left and right circular crystal lenses were connected in the middle. However, these "glasses" did not have legs. Instead, they were fitted with elastic bands made from the tendons of some unknown animal. This made it look more like windproof goggles.
No matter what, this was an object with a somewhat modern aura. No matter how he looked at it, it did not look like a treasure from the cultivation world.
Xia Ruofei did not know why Old Taoist Zhen Yang would take out this item. Moreover, it was an additional reward. Generally speaking, additional rewards were relatively difficult to obtain, so the reward should be relatively valuable. Could it be that this item was more valuable than the Curved Frost Flying Sword?
Old Taoist Zhen Yang chuckled and introduced, "Mister Xia, this item is called the Perceptive Mirror. It is also a precious magic treasure. However, it can only be used in this place. It cannot be taken out. This is something I must explain to Mister Xia first …"
It turned out that this was a restricted treasure! It could only be used in the secret realm. Moreover, it could not be taken out of the secret realm.
Xia Ruofei was even less interested in this item. However, he still asked, "Daoist Zhen Yang, what can this Perceptive Mirror do?"
Old Taoist Zhen Yang smiled. "This treasure has many uses. Mister Xia, why don't you let this treasure recognize you as its owner first? Then, this Daoist will explain them to you one by one."
Xia Ruofei nodded.
Xia Ruofei was already familiar with the process of dripping blood to recognize him as its owner. Soon, he successfully made the Perceptive Mirror recognize him as its owner. He could also feel the faint connection between him and the Perceptive Mirror.
Under Old Taoist Zhen Yang's guidance, Xia Ruofei put on the Perceptive Mirror.
Sure enough, as he expected, this thing was worn on the head, with two lenses in front of the eyes.
Xia Ruofei thought to himself, 'Don't tell me I have to wear it all the time? Even if it has a very powerful function, it's too embarrassing to wear it all the time …
Wearing these super-large windproof goggles would definitely make me look very silly … '
As Xia Ruofei thought to himself, he took out a mirror from the Ring-Tu space. He wanted to see his current glorious appearance.
He mustered up his courage to look at the mirror and almost cried out in shock. His image in the mirror hadn't changed at all. Although he was wearing the Perceptive Mirror, it was as if he was completely invisible. He couldn't see it at all.
"What's going on?" Xia Ruofei couldn't help but ask.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang chuckled. "After the Perceptive Mirror recognizes you as its owner, it will automatically disappear when you wear it. No one can see that you're wearing this magic treasure!"
Xia Ruofei secretly sighed in relief. If he were to wear this weird goggles all the time, it would indeed be embarrassing.
Of course, Old Taoist Zhen Yang had just said that this thing could only be used in the Arcana Land and couldn't be taken away. Whether or not he could meet anyone in the Arcana Land was another matter! However, it was always good to be able to hide it.
Xia Ruofei felt it for a bit. He didn't know what material the rubber band of the Perceptive Mirror was made of, but it was moderately tight and didn't feel very uncomfortable when worn. Although the lenses looked like they were made of pink crystal, he didn't see anything different after wearing them. There was no change in color either.
This wasn't too bad. Otherwise, it would be enough to drive people crazy if their vision was filled with pink.
Of course, the most important thing was what this thing was used for. If it was useless, it didn't matter how comfortable it was.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei asked directly, "Taoist Zhen Yang, what is the use of this magic treasure? Please enlighten me."
Old Taoist Zhen Yang chuckled. "The Perceptive Mirror, as the name suggests, is used for sensing. Master Xia, you can use your mind to communicate with this magic treasure. This magic treasure can determine the level and cultivation of cultivators, monsters, and even objects in your field of vision. There are even some simple introductions … "
Xia Ruofei was dumbfounded. He communicated with the Perceptive Mirror with his mind and received a lot of information. It was quite easy to use.
He looked at the little Taoist boy Qing Feng at the door. Suddenly, lines of traditional Chinese characters appeared in his field of vision …
Taoist Boy Qing Feng
Elementary Puppet
Cultivation Level: Qi Refining Level 6
Weakness: Defective material. Weak body, especially neck, has extremely low defense.
…
There was some other information below. Xia Ruofei skimmed through it briefly and then erased it with his mind.
This was too amazing! Just this function alone was enough to give Xia Ruofei the ability to cheat in the secret realm.
He couldn't help but look at Old Taoist Zhen Yang again. However, to his disappointment, the Perceptive Mirror only gave him a series of greetings. There was no useful information at all.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang seemed to have seen through Xia Ruofei's intentions. He chuckled and said, "The Perceptive Mirror's range of use is limited. This has something to do with Master Xia's cultivation level. If your cultivation level is three levels higher than yours, all information will be hidden."
Xia Ruofei was enlightened. It seemed that although Old Taoist Zhen Yang was a puppet, his cultivation level was so high that he couldn't see anything from the Perceptive Mirror.
Of course, even so, the Perceptive Mirror was already very useful. If he saw a situation full of question marks, it meant that the other party's cultivation level was at least three levels higher than his. In such a situation, it was best to stay far away.
Therefore, even if he couldn't see through the other party's information, it could still serve as a warning.
Xia Ruofei was very satisfied with this additional reward.
Old Taoist Zhen Yang chuckled and said, "Master Xia, the Perceptive Mirror has another function that should be very helpful to you …"
