The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 470

Chapter 470: Chapter 466: Hesitation Chapter 470: Chapter 466: Hesitation The control of soul power required in this place is extremely strict. If too much soul power is leaked, it will form ink lumps like before, piercing through the entire talisman paper; on the other hand, if too little soul power is leaked, it would be like a river running dry leading to insufficient talisman aura and even a complete cut-off, rendering it no different from a waste talisman.

Most of Shen Luo's previous mistakes occurred at this point, he still hasn't been successful in drawing a “Dream Remembrance Talisman”.

At this moment, he had concentrated all his mind here. The hand of his divine soul was as steady as Mount Tai, drawing bit by bit, bringing out the power of the divine soul along the traces of runes.

Shen Luo felt as if that one curve was like a river bend, his spiritual river had arrived in front of him; he could neither destroy it, nor should it be obstructed. He had to skillfully navigate around it.

“Go.”

A thought rose in his mind, the hand of his divine soul made a loop in the void. For the first time, he smoothly bypassed the obstacle and directed the rune towards the final endpoint.

The first Dream Remembrance Talisman was finally successful!

Shen Luo suppressed the joy in his heart, carefully examined the runes suspended in the Sea of Knowledge, and after confirming no more problems existed, he slowly withdrew his divine soul.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw the talisman paper in front of him. Golden dots spread among the red runes. It looks like they were hot-stamped on the talisman paper. The lines were fluent and the aura full, clearly a high-quality product.

Shen Luo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, cleaned his palm, then took down the Dream Remembrance Talisman and started to carefully examine it.

The experience of successfully making a talisman for the first time was the most precious. He needed to carefully examine every detail on it and remember each key point.

After resting for a while, he put away the “Dream Remembrance Talisman”, then closed his eyes again, and began to draw talismans again.

In fact, drawing talismans using this method of invoking soul power exhausts the mind greatly. Even for Shen Luo, with his large soul strength, it was somewhat burdensome.

However, with the continuous practice, Shen Luo found that his control of soul power during the drawing process was becoming more and more proficient, and thus he didn't tire of it.

After three hundred and sixty-seven instances of continuous practice, Shen Luo gradually mastered all techniques of drawing Dream Remembrance Talisman. In his last dozen exercises, he was successful in drawing one out of every three attempts. His mark of success cannot be considered inefficient.

Seeing that his proficiency with this talisman was already enough, Shen Luo stopped drawing talismans, after all, dream talismans could not be brought back to reality. He only wanted to accumulate experience in drawing talismans, not hoarding actual talismans.

Shen Luo knelt on the stone steps, meditated for a while, and slowly opened his eyes, a look of melancholy flashed in his eyes.

The smooth feeling of cultivation in dreams made him increasingly anxious about the difficulty in reality. Right now, he could stay outside The Golden Palace for a while without hurrying to go in and continue the fight, but this was not a long-term plan after all.

“Alas, no matter how profound your dream cultivation is, it can't affect reality. Once you exhaust your lifespan here, if you want to further enhance your cultivation realm after you go back, it won't be that easy.” Shen Luo murmured.

Previously, he had advanced from the Grain Avoidance Stage to the Soul Condensation Stage, and that was achieved through the aid of dragon blood and Thousand-Year Lingru. If he wants to go further, not to mention how much medicinal stones will aid him, where could he find such fairy materials and spiritual materials?

In the end, the gap in qualifications is too big. If his progress speed in reality was as fast as it is in his dreams, he wouldn't be afraid of the lifespan limit.

“Isn't there any way to improve my qualifications?” Shen Luo thought silently.

Just then, a flash of spiritual light crossed his mind, he slapped his thigh and said: “Ouch, I almost forgot this thing…”

The high speed of Shen Luo's cultivation in his dream had something to do with the twenty meridians he had opened. The cultivation of people is nothing more than 'understanding the law and operating its function'. Regardless of the same mystic arts cultivation, those with more meridians have higher operating speeds and efficiencies than those with fewer ones. If he could increase the number of his meridians, not only would his body's mana inevitably increase, but his cultivation speed would also undoubtedly accelerate.

If it were in the past, Shen Luo would never have had such a strange idea. After all, the opening of human meridians only happens when people break through to the early stage of Grain Avoidance. The number of meridians varies from person to person based on qualifications and opportunities, ones set cannot be changed.

But the “Technique of Opening Dark Yin Meridians” that he got from Hu Yong earlier provided a possible way to do this.

As long as he could master this technique in his dreams and accumulate enough experience, he could minimize the risk of this technique and improve his cultivation qualifications in reality.

“Although the Technique of Opening Dark Yin Meridians is exquisite, this technique is ultimately a risky move. A slight mishap could lead to damage to the newly opened meridians, and in severe cases, it could even endanger life. Although I have the ability to be reborn in my dreams, this also consumes the lifespan of the real world.” Shen Luo murmured, hesitating after a moment.

After deliberation, Shen Luo still felt it was not safe enough, and he was discouraged as soon as he was excited.

He sat in front of the steps for a long time, carefully recalling all the details of the Technique of Opening Dark Yin Meridians in his mind, but in the end, he didn't decide to take the risk and try it, instead, he got up and entered the tower again.

As soon as he entered the tower, he was quickly pulled into the combat space by the golden light shot from the eyes of the Armored Heavenly General. This time, the one who appeared opposite to him was a slender Silver Armored Heavenly Soldier with a longsword in his hand.

As soon as the Silver Armored Heavenly Soldier appeared, he charged straight towards Shen Luo. His longsword was covered with a layer of golden light and had an impressive aura of righteousness.

Seeing this, Shen Luo noticed that his cultivation level was not much different from the previous Silver Armored Heavenly Soldier, both were at the Middle Stage of Mahayana, but the aura exuded was very different. The current soldier exerted more pressure on him than the previous one.

He didn't take him lightly. With a turn of his wrist, he pulled out the Six Chen Whip, assumed his position, and waited for the Silver Armored Heavenly Soldier to rush over.

The two quickly closed the distance, the Silver Armored Heavenly Soldier suddenly accelerated, the long sword in his hand lunged straight out, a wave seemed to flow on the sword body, a piece of golden light gushed out from the sword hilt, and suddenly swept across the sword body, heading straight for the sword tip.

Shen Luo's eyes darted, and he saw a sudden sun rising in front of him, the golden light was so dazzling that it almost hurt his eyes.

He had to divert his gaze, retreat one step backward, he originally planned to avoid this attack, and use the Six Chen Whip to aim for a quick attack, but now he could only horizontally block the Six Chen Whip in front of him.

Golden sunlight approached instantaneously, the originally radiant scene suddenly shrunk, all the scattered light condensed onto the sword tip at that moment, all sharp edges gathered at one point, heading straight for Shen Luo's heart.
