Indeed, the statues did not have any side effects. As long as one did not encounter any shackles after absorbing the energy inside, one would be able to expand one's consciousness smoothly.
The problem was, although the sea was fine, if one expanded too quickly, one's foundation would be unstable.
For a talented person like Shirō Makino, shackles were not a big problem for him. However, if one forcefully increased one's cultivation base without restraint, one's consciousness would become unstable.
It was the same as building a city. One had to fix the city walls first before building the interior.
If one did not fix the city walls and allowed the buildings to expand as they pleased, one would encounter problems sooner or later.
Therefore, even though Shirō Makino had many statues on him, he was still very careful with every step he took.
The foundation of one's cultivation must be laid out properly.
Nobody could make a big deal out of nothing.
Did one not see how he had to be as careful with every step he took when he used the Spiritual Orbs?
If there was a problem with the foundation, even if one built a skyscraper in the future, one problem would cause the skyscraper to collapse, and all previous efforts would be in vain.
Since he could not find the solution from the Talisman Artist's book, he could only look for it by reading the ancient books in the Fiend Seal Sect.
It was a huge project!
Nevertheless, Shirō Makino was never tired of it.
He loved learning.
The only thing he needed to worry about was whether Master Lu and the others could keep an eye on the child and ensure that he would not be stolen.
Given Master Lu's status, it should not be too difficult for him to do that.
As soon as he got home, Shirō Makino dove into the ocean of knowledge and quickly searched for the solution.
Time passed quietly just like that.
Nobody was idle during the days when there were no competitions, but it was relatively relaxing.
Apart from attending classes, there were all sorts of training sessions.
Apart from teaching others, Shirō Makino spent all his time reading.
A week later, Master Lu called him and said that there was a dangerous situation. Someone came to steal the child.
However, the person was chased away by the people he found.
Half a month later, Master Lu called again and said that someone came to steal the child again, but the person was chased away again.
This time, one of Master Lu's helpers was injured.
Fortunately, it was not a fatal injury, but this matter had already caused many people to be on high alert.
Within the borders of the Empire, on the planet of Ziyun, there was actually someone who used such evil arts?
Therefore, more people spontaneously came to protect the child. Even the palace sent two experts to protect him.
At the same time, the upper echelons of the Empire began to mobilize their forces to find the real culprit.
In this world, nothing was more frightening than seriousness.
No matter what it was, as long as one was serious, there would always be an answer.
Just like Old Sixth Gao from a few days ago.
If he hadn't been so persistent, he wouldn't have known the truth in the end.
However, Old Sixth Gao was too weak. Even if he knew the truth, there was nothing he could do.
But the royal family was different.
When the Imperial Family got serious, everyone trembled.
Therefore, in October, Master Lu called again and said that the culprit had been identified, but the culprit escaped before the arresters arrived.
He had no idea where the culprit had escaped to, but from Master Lu's point of view, it was impossible for the culprit to escape.
However, he was also a little puzzled. He told Shirō Makino that the culprit had always been an honest person and had average talent. He couldn't see anything special about him at all.
At first, many people even thought that the culprit could not be the culprit. However, they later discovered a large amount of information related to the ancient evil talisman technique in the culprit's house, and they finally confirmed this.
In any case, at least the child was safe for the time being.
This also made Shirō Makino, who had been painstakingly searching for a solution, heave a sigh of relief.
One and a half months after this incident, Shirō Makino finally found a solution to this living talisman technique among the countless books in the Demonic Seal Sect.
However, after reading it, he was a little confused and a little depressed.
"A drop of blood essence between the eyebrows of the God-level Howling Moon Wolf, a Grandmaster-level Ghost Pool Mosquito's proboscis ground into powder, five grams of Grandmaster-level demon's horn ground into powder …"
There were a total of seven materials, and at least six of them were things that Shirō Makino had not even heard of before!
The only demon that he was familiar with was a Grandmaster-level demon, but he had never heard of it.
'What the hell is this?'
Shirō Makino was speechless.
He immediately dialed Master Lu's number and told him about the seven materials.
The God-level talisman doctor, Master Lu, was also a little confused.
Fortunately, he had heard of at least five of the materials. Apart from the God-level Howling Moon Wolf and the Grandmaster-level Ghost Pool Mosquito, he had heard of the rest, including the Grandmaster-level demon.
Not only had he heard of them, but he had also seen them!
"Little demons are a very large race, and the highest level is a Grandmaster-level demon. I've seen them in a dimensional space before. They're said to be little demons, but they're more than five meters tall and look especially scary. However, they're not particularly difficult to deal with. "
Master Lu said, "How about this, Master Bai? Apart from the Howling Moon Wolf and the Ghost Pool Mosquito, I'll think of a way to find out about the other five materials. I'll try my best to find out about the other two as well. "
Shirō Makino could not help but ask, "Senior, what's the child's identity?"
A child who could be remembered and used as a talisman paper to draw talismans on his body must have a reason.
Master Lu smiled bitterly and said, "The child is just an ordinary child. I didn't notice anything unusual, and the child's parents aren't important people either. They're just ordinary officials living in the capital. "
'Is there really nothing unusual?'
Shirō Makino was more or less doubtful.
While he was looking for ways to break the Living Talisman Technique, he had also read a lot of books from that era.
He had a deeper understanding of the Living Talisman Technique.
Those who were chosen as "talismans" were usually children, and there was a 90% chance that they would be boys.
They would not be more than ten years old.
According to the books, such children must first have a pure heart.
This was not a big problem.
Normally, even if a child of seven or eight years old knew a lot of things, his heart would not be very complicated.
Secondly, the child's body must have a special energy.
The book that Shirō Makino read did not mention what this special energy was, and he could not find any related information.
Lastly, the child's physique must be weak and sickly!
A pure heart, a body with a special energy, and a weak and sickly body … A child must meet these three conditions to be chosen as a living "talisman paper".
"Has the child been weak and sickly since he was young?" Shirō Makino asked.
"That's true. He's not sickly, but he's really weak. I've also tested his genes, but I couldn't find any reason. " Master Lu said, "It's very difficult to explain his problems with modern science. Does Master Bai know something?"
Shirō Makino said, "How about this? I'll send you the relevant information for you to take a look first. Then, I'll look for the Ghost Pool of the Ghost Pool Mosquitoes, as well as the god-rank Howling Moon Wolf. I want to know if it's a dimensional creature or a living creature in our world. At the very least, we have to figure this out before we can proceed to the next step. Otherwise, it'll be meaningless even if you prepare the other five materials. "
"That's true. I'll have to trouble you then, Master Bai!" Master Lu was as polite as ever.
Bai Muye couldn't help but feel a little helpless about this. In any case, no matter what he said, the old man would always address him as' Bai shi ', and his attitude was incomparably respectful.
Shirō Makino believed that since he could find the relevant information in the Fiend Seal Sect's books, he would definitely be able to find information about the Howling Moon Wolf and the Ghost Pool Mosquitoes!
Xiao Bai really loved to learn, read, and do homework. However, it would take him at least a few years to finish reading the countless books that the Fiend Seal Sect had accumulated over the years.
Nevertheless, the knowledge he absorbed this way was the most solid!
Once he used other methods, even a person like him who loved to learn would have a trace of laziness.
Why should he memorize knowledge that could be found through a search engine at any time?
Knowledge that couldn't be learned by oneself didn't have a soul!
Alright, these were actually all excuses. Bai Muye was used to Big Beauty handling such matters, so he didn't even think of using this method to deal with such matters … He had forgotten.
Fortunately, the person behind the scenes was scared away, and fortunately, the child was safe until now.
Otherwise, he would really feel guilty.
"Even a wise man makes mistakes sometimes!" Xiao Bai's sensei lamented.
"AI." He sighed softly and summoned the advanced AI. Then, he found a huge empty room and moved the Fiend Seal Sect's books out row by row.
"Scan and upload all this knowledge and categorize it."
Swoosh!
"Done."
Shirō Makino: "…"
Damn!
Why did he have to read them one by one previously?
Alright, he would have to read them one by one when he had time in the future.
This was a special situation, and he needed special treatment.
After all, he was someone who loved to learn.
Normally, it would have taken several years or even longer to finish reading this book, but under the scanning of the advanced AI, it only took less than half a day to finish reading it.
Moreover, this half a day was basically wasted on Shirō Makino moving books out of the spatial ring.
Lin Zijin sat on a small stool and rested her chin on her hands as she watched Shirō Makino work.
She couldn't help but say: "You should have thought of such a simple method before."
"But I didn't think of it." Shirō Makino expressionlessly moved the books out.
"This means that big brother can be stupid sometimes!" Lin Zijin looked very happy.
"That's true. You can be a little smarter sometimes." Shirō Makino said.
Damn!
Lin Zijin's good mood was gone. She couldn't bear to hit her big brother, and couldn't beat him. She could only go to the Black Domain and bully the other geniuses.
By the time the advanced AI finished scanning all the books, the sky had completely darkened.
Shirō Makino sighed softly and said: "AI, search for information about the Howling Moon Wolf and the Demon Pool Mosquito."
As he said this, he missed Big Beauty even more.
I wonder how Big Beauty is doing now.
…
…
In the depths of the endless universe, a spaceship had already left the Andromeda Galaxy, heading towards an even more distant and unfamiliar galaxy.
The spaceship would sometimes perform a spatial jump, and sometimes fly at an extremely high speed in the cold and lonely universe.
Big Beauty, who was resting inside a mysterious metal, crossed her legs, and placed a cup of tea in front of her.
The tea had already turned cold.
The screen in front of Big Beauty was playing a scene of Shirō Makino when he was eleven years old.
In the scene, the already handsome 11-year-old Shirō Makino was angrily looking at a holographic projection in front of him.
The projection was of a woman with long, wavy hair, wearing a cheongsam with a slit. She was grinning at the youth.
"Big Beauty, you put onions in my buns again. Although you've gotten rid of the smell, don't think I can't smell it!"
"Dehydrated vegetables are good for your body. What are you afraid of?" The woman giggled and said.
"I told you, I hate this kind of thing!"
"I don't hate it!"
"Then I hate you!" The youth was so angry that his eyes turned red.
Big Pretty picked up the tea in the cup, and the tea that had already cooled down suddenly emitted steam. She sighed softly and put down the teacup.
"You have watched it hundreds of times on the way. Don't you feel bored?" Han Bingxue Fairy, who was also resting inside a special metal, walked over and sat in front of Big Beauty. She raised up her head and looked at the young man in the picture.
"Don't think I don't know you have been watching Lin Zijin's life." Big Beauty said, "We are the same. Why do you have to laugh at me?"
"I thought I would forget it as time goes by," Han Bingxue said in a low voice. Han Bingxue spoke in a low voice, "After all, we have lived for too long. We have been through too many things, and we have met too many people … This is just a small episode in our long lives. It is not even a small wave in our lives. But who would have thought that I would still be thinking about her. Yue, do you think we are too weak now? So much so that even his temperament underwent a fundamental change? "
Big Beauty smiled and then said in a low voice, "Are we weak now? I don't think so. Even if a Talisman King suddenly shows up, would you be afraid of him? "
Han Bingxue blandly said, "What is there to be afraid of? We can't kill him, and he can't kill us."
Big Beauty looked at him and said, "So, we are not weak. We are … more human."
Han Bingxue looked at her and said, "I am fine with that. But you? You are a human, aren't you? "
Big Beauty laughed and said, "I am a deity!"
Han Bingxue couldn't help but roll up his eyes.
The lonely spaceship once again performed a space jump and flew to a faraway place.
No one knew where its final destination was.
…
…
"The Howling Moon Wolf is born strong and intelligent. It likes to eat the essence of the moon. Wherever it lives, there must be a star. The more stars there are, the more likely it is to live on. "
"The Howling Moon Wolf is a wolf, but it likes to live alone. The higher level it is, the bigger its territory is."
"The Howling Moon Wolf is one of the high-level monsters. It usually stays away from humans. After years of searching, I found three places where the Howling Moon Wolf lives. Here are the coordinates …"
Shirō Makino looked at the information about the Howling Moon Wolf and felt a headache.
Those coordinates were all from the Ancient Era. It would take a lot of time to determine the true location of these coordinates.
After that, he checked the information about the Ghost Pond Mosquitoes.
"The Ghost Pond is located on a huge flat land between the coordinates xxx and xxxx. It appears and disappears randomly. That's why it is called the Ghost Pond."
"The Ghost Pond Mosquitoes are a kind of blood-sucking insects that live in the Ghost Pond. They live in groups. Ordinary Ghost Pond Mosquitoes are at the Master Level. Elite Ghost Pond Mosquitoes are at the Master Level. The King Ghost Pond Mosquitoes is at the God Level!"
"The mouthparts of the Ghost Pond Mosquitoes can be used in medicine. They are the best material to make many Master Level Talisman Inks. However, the Ghost Pond Mosquitoes are very aggressive. Because the Ghost Pond Water can be used in medicine and can be used as the main material for talisman inks, people often visit the Ghost Pond. However, because of the Ghost Pond Mosquitoes, it is very difficult to obtain the Ghost Pond Water … "
Shirō Makino looked melancholic after reading it.
This was too difficult!
No matter how confident he was in himself, he had no idea how to deal with these two creatures.
The blood essence between the eyebrows of the God Level Howling Moon Wolf … Damn it, how was he going to obtain it?
From the tone of the information, it didn't seem difficult.
Thinking back to the group of God Level Talisman Artist in the Demonic Seal Sect … it really didn't seem too difficult for them.
Since the Howling Moon Wolf was very intelligent, he would make a deal with it.
The so-called blood essence between the eyebrows sounded high and mighty, but it could be regenerated by the Howling Moon Wolf.
As long as he could move it, there was nothing he couldn't trade with.
If it really didn't want to trade, then he would completely move it … until it was convinced.
In any case, the Demonic Seal Sect had many God Level experts.
But Xiao Bai couldn't do it!
Even if he called Old Bai, Old Song, and Old Lu over to save that child, as well as a group of helpers, they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage against a God Level monster.
Therefore, he couldn't do what the Demonic Seal Sect could easily do.
If he didn't have the strength to beat it into submission, then he would definitely be an intelligent God Level monster if he didn't get swallowed whole. The Howling Moon Wolf couldn't be bothered with them!
As for the Ghost Pool Mosquitoes, they were even more terrifying.
Even the weakest of them was a Grandmaster … If he encountered them, it would truly be hopeless.
Thinking back to the time when he encountered the overwhelming number of mosquitoes in the Instance Dungeon, he had no choice but to obediently hide.
Even though Xiao Bai was already close to becoming an Intermediate Grandmaster, and had mastered the Talisman Arts of Falling Rocks and Fire Meteor Shower, he was still helpless against these monsters, Grandmasters, Elite Grandmasters, and God Level monsters.
"Sigh …" Shirō Makino sighed. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but it was almost impossible to obtain these two materials.
Lin Zijin came out of the Black Domain again. When she saw Shirō Makino still sitting in the study, her heart ached. She walked over and asked, "You still haven't found it?"
Shirō Makino smiled bitterly. "I found it, but I can't get it."
As he spoke, he displayed the information of these two creatures on the screen.
Lin Zijin looked at it for a while, then frowned and mumbled, "It's so difficult! Even if we're all God Level now, it won't be easy for us to deal with these two creatures. "
"That's right." Shirō Makino nodded. "That's why I don't have the heart to send this information to Master Lu."
Lin Zijin grunted softly. It would be fine if there was no hope at all, but now there was hope, yet there was no chance … This feeling was even more torturous and despairing.
She thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Big Brother, do you think there's such a possibility?"
"What kind?" Shirō Makino looked at her.
"If we can find the Howling Moon Wolf and make a deal with it … Look, the Howling Moon Wolf is a God Level creature. In its eyes, we're just two kids, and we're nothing more than ants. It won't even spare us a glance. If we can offer something that can tempt it, can't we make a deal and beg for a drop of its blood essence to save our lives? "
Lin Zijin looked at Shirō Makino. "Big Brother, I know I'm being naive, but this is the only way we can get the blood essence from the Howling Moon Wolf's forehead!"
"It's not exactly naive. I've thought about it too, but what can we use to tempt it?" Shirō Makino smiled bitterly. "Also, even if we can tempt the Howling Moon Wolf, how are we going to get the Grandmaster Ghost Pool Mosquitoes' mouthparts? A drop of blood essence won't cause too much damage to the Howling Moon Wolf, but you know what a mouthpart is to a mosquito. Besides, the Ghost Pool Mosquitoes … are aggressive creatures with low intelligence. Do you think they'll reason with us and make a deal? "
"We can ask the Howling Moon Wolf for help!" Lin Zijin fantasized. "If we can tempt it, we can ask it to help us!"
"Girl, wake up." Shirō Makino did not know whether to laugh or cry.
