Chapter 247 Let's cooperate
You can also get less trouble if you finish the hell sooner. Feiqi and Shani stayed warm for a while, and used the three-barrel magic array to return to the seventh level of hell, between the crystal throne.
The ruins and garbage that blocked the gate were removed, and the cave emitting red light seemed particularly old and cold, and the Fork Road Demon had tasted the absolute loneliness here for a while. Feiqi's threat was still in his ears. The Fork Road Demon was very worried that it would be permanently sealed. This was a terrible ending that any ambitious devil could not bear. So, when the light outside shone into the hall again, it shouted excitedly: "Feich! You are finally back!"
"Can't you scare me like this? I didn't say I won't come back." Feiqi walked carefully to the throne, leaned his head to look at the fork in the mirror: "What's wrong with you? Your soul is in such a bad state?"
"I've been sleeping for a while, and there's nothing wrong with my soul." The Fork Road Demon adjusted his emotions and replied: "I'm worried that if you accidentally die in hell, it will be a great loss to me. After all, there are many crises in hell, and it's difficult to live without enough knowledge and experience."
"You're right, hell is definitely a dangerous place." Feiqi tapped the mirror with his finger and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you for your concern, I'm doing a good job. You should try your best to live and watch me become stronger slowly. I still have something to do, so you can play by yourself."
What else can a sealed soul play? Feiqi is just a joke. He has his own mission when he comes here. When he comes to the room where space is turbulent, the kaleidoscope-like scene is constantly rotating and changing in front of his eyes, and it is completely irregular. He used the wandering soul who had been saved to stabilize a part of the space and took out drinks, instant noodles and computers from it. These three images are the only three still and unchanging areas in the gorgeous kaleidoscope.
After continuous learning and increasing knowledge, Feiqi now knows that the wandering soul after the salvation is a standard prayer, washing away the pain and desire of the soul before, leaving only a clean piece of paper. However, the prayer for the wandering soul is quite strange. It does not have the characteristics of the outer plane, but rather likes the mortal world very much, as if he wants to be reincarnated and reborn. This is also why the wandering soul who is sent to the hall of hell will try his best to avoid the breath of hell and always want to drill into the turbulent stream of space - the other side of the turbulent stream is Yan Rui's hometown, which is the mortal world.
Why there are wandering souls in the Sunset Mountains? This is not recorded in the church's classics, and the adventurers who went to explore failed to find the reason. According to the sand table map of the Knights of the Second World War, the Sunset Mountains stretched wide, all the way to the west and north were full of mountains, without any villages, cities, or fortresses. So if you want to find out what is inside, it is best to wait until the strategic teleportation array is completed and the supply problem is solved.
Return to the space turbulence. Since the prayer can stabilize the space, the soul power in the spirit coins should also have the same effect. Feiqi took out the spirit coins and threw them into the space turbulence. The spirit coins were absorbed, and then a mirror surface as big as a nail was fixed, but nothing could be taken out from it.
"You don't want to use money to stabilize the turbulence in space, are you?" The voice of the Fork Road Demon sounded behind him: "Feich, don't do that, I'm pretty sure you will go bankrupt. The turbulence in space is not a plane. If you fill the part in front of you with money, there will be new ones turning from behind. That's a space!"
"Thank you for your concern." Feiqi smiled slightly. The fork-road demon found that his influence had dropped to a very low level and was now working hard to find remedies. This is the same as the devil's contract. The more he relies on the devil's help, the more he is greedy for convenience and effort, the deeper he will fall into it. On the contrary, self-reliance, although it is harder, is what he gets, and is safe and fulfilled.
Feiqi used spiritual coins mainly to see the impact of soul power on space. The soul is the power to change the world. This is the core theory of magic for Fitch, but this is just a qualitative statement. How to influence, what are the rules and how to control it is the real complex part. Fortunately, there are magic runes as the bridge in the middle and spells serve as tools for experimentation. Feiqi has the ability to slowly reveal the truth.
On the ground outside the space turbulence, Feiqi began to draw a magic array, with the dimension anchor as the core, combining space detection and teleportation runes to form a magic array system that "captures space and stabilizes space". He used space bags to use magic ink, hang himself in mid-air with a rope of air element, and draws magic arrays on the ground at an extremely fast speed.
Although Feiqi's magic spells are somewhat biased and the main research directions are focused on space spells, at least he has achieved good results in this area. He was confident in a space capture magic circle and almost completed it in one go, which surprised the onlooker demon. In fact, this is the first time that the fork demon really witnessed Feiqi's growth.
From a broken soul who knows nothing, he gradually becomes a wizard who can "spray ink" in hell. This speed is too fast. Although mortals are fickle, aren't many worlds standing still for hundreds of thousands of years? The road demon carefully observed Feiqi and guessed that his growth rate might have a lot to do with his hometown. The merchant named Qian Jing had extremely active soul-like substances in his body, and Yan Rui had such a fast speed of progress.
"Feich, your spell looks strong. How did you do it? Does your original world have spells?"
"Yes, of course there are. Spread beans into soldiers, transporting gods and ghosts, and rectifying the heavenly thunder... There are so many magic in our world. In our world, there will be no chance for devils like you to scatter wildly. I was just unlucky and was caught here, and in my hometown I am just an ordinary person who is so ordinary that he can't be more ordinary. Alas, the devil has no future!"
The Forbidden Road Demon rolled his eyes. Obviously Feiqi didn't want to tell the truth to it, but those words that sounded very powerful should not be new, so they cannot be considered lies. The false and real are often used by the Contract Demon. It seems that Feiqi is not unfamiliar. Seeing that Feiqi is becoming more and more independent and is about to completely get rid of his influence, the Forbidden Road Demon is really anxious.
"I want to work with you sincerely." said the Forbidden Demon: "Although you are just a desire demon now, your strength and brain power are no less than that of a high-level devil. I admit that the initiative of the situation has reached you now, and if I want to play tricks here, I can no longer do it - so I can only really cooperate with you for the sake of this plan."
"Cooperation? Let's not talk about the issues of trust and constraints. Do you have anything I want?"
"How about the territory? Do you want to obtain a territory in hell?" said the fork-road demon: "The territory of hell can make you directly turn into items with goodwill and spiritual coins. You are a spellcaster, which is very convenient. And you can have your own slaves to work for you and help you build and manufacture. Of course, you can get all this in the mortal world, but hell is eternal, and the mortal world is just a passing cloud."
"If I want to exchange things, I can find the Styx ferrymen, or slowly buy them at the blood seller market, without having to exchange them from the sand in the ruins."
"How about eternal life?" said the Forward Demon: "All mortals want eternal life and have taken various methods, but they all have great hidden dangers. However, when you have the territory of hell, you will be immortal like a god, and you do not need believers and do not need to respond to prayers. This is the safest way."
"I am still very young now, but the lifespan of the demon of desire is so long, I am not in a hurry at all." Feiqi waved his hand at the demon of the road, looking indifferent: "Stop talking, I am making a fine magic circle and don't want to be disturbed by you. The devil's territory may have many benefits, but I don't have the energy to take the territory of the mortal world, so let's forget about it here."
"This is the territory of hell! Only...ah!" The fork-way demon shook his head slowly, and it felt like he wanted to continue thinking deeply.
Feiqi just wants the fork demon to keep this state, let it have concerns and keep it worried, so that it can continue to be proactive in the relationship between the two. This fork demon still hides too many secrets, and it is these secrets that Feiqi can only stay alert all the time. If time drags on, it will be great that it can draw some secrets and gradually reduce the threat of the fork demon.
Without the fork demons clamoring on the side, Feiqi's progress can be much faster. Originally, this magic array is an experimental thing, and it can be successful without preparation in one go, so many places are very rough and the project volume is smaller. Feiqi finally checked the entire magic array, confirmed that there was no problem, so he inputs mana into it and activates it.
A beam of yellow light shot from the center of the magic array into the turbulent flow in space, and then stabbed in smoothly. With this beam of light as the center, the kaleidoscope-like change speed decreased, and the dazzled vision gradually became observable, but it was still very energy-consuming. The anchoring ability of the dimensional anchor for space changes was revealed, but it was not enough to stop the turbulent flow. Feiqi guessed that the dimensional anchor was mainly aimed at preventing people from interfering with the space, while the turbulent flow in front of him was the state of the space itself, so he would get half the result with twice the effort.
But it doesn't matter, the magic circle has other functions. Feiqi took out ten spirit coins and stacked them in the magic circle in the middle of a rune array that looks like a skull. The magic circle starts the second layer, imitating the runes used in the devil's cannon to absorb the ability of elemental gems, and draw out the energy from the spirit coins. High-level devils have the ability to draw out the energy of the spirit coins, which can heal their injuries, drive away malignant effects, or provide energy to advanced subordinates. The Desire Demon does not have this ability, but the advanced ritual in the "Painting Book" includes methods of using spiritual coins and other sacrifices, and Feiqi also adapts it.
His greatest advantage is to crack and understand other people's things, change the form according to actual needs, and then turn it into his own things. This kind of cracking and learning will definitely fall behind at the beginning, after all, it is just a "copy". But as long as you don't stop learning and studying, don't be complacent on the most basic level of "can be used", but always think about transcending the past.
The soul power was slowly extracted, and then entered the space turbulence along the yellow dimensional anchor beam. At this time, the situation changed again. The space turbulence was like a broken mirror. Each broken piece showed a different picture and was constantly changing. This is the origin of the kaleidoscope. Through the injection of the dimensional anchor and soul power, the fragment shot by the yellow beam stabilized and no longer changed, and the area continued to grow larger. Feiqi opened his eyes and observed carefully, and noticed that the picture was realistic. The money tree in the corner of the office was still hanging on the leaves, such as performance completion, holidays and salary increases.
Since you can see it, can you get it? Feiqi shot out a rope of air element, passed through the space turbulence and then stuck to the fortune tree. As he exerted force, the fortune tree began to move towards hell, and soon exposed most of the leaf crown. As before, this action of taking out the item would consume a lot of soul power, ten spirit coins burned up quickly, and the yellow light returned to a state where it could only slow down the pattern change, but could not take out the item. The fortune tree was cut off without completely taking out it, and Feiqi only had the part above the trunk in his hand.
"Although you are useless, you have made extremely important contributions to the research of space spells." Feiqi held half of the money tree in both hands, looked at the tags on it, and summoned flames to burn them all to ashes. "The magic circle proves to be useful. The key is to find the one with my body in the constantly changing patterns. The office is still in the time when there is no fire, which means that my body must be still there."
"The continuous operation of dimensional anchor can slow down the change of patterns, so that there is a chance to observe, but it is not realistic to keep staring at them." Feiqi tried to observe with Hawkeye meditation just now, but thousands of patterns, each of which were tiny fragments, took only ten seconds to make him feel dizzy, and he couldn't hold on for a minute.
"Since you can't see the panoramic view, you can only stare at a small area and wait for luck. At the same time, you must also allow the dimensional anchor spell to turn, thereby locking the correct turbulent fragments." Feiqi looked at the magic circle and thought for a while, thinking about it, thinking that the safer method is to shoot out the second dimensional anchor to lock, so that the first dimensional anchor is completely used to slow down the speed of space change.
Since there is a plan, let's continue to be busy. There is already a magic array on the ground, and a new dimensional anchor is added to it, and it is also required that the two of them be able to be linked with the same set of controls. This requires the construction method of the three-dimensional magic array. Feiqi took out the standard rune board from the space bag, just like building blocks to start adjusting the original magic array. This action directly made the fork-way demon faint.
After about ten hours of busy life, Feiqi has been working very focused on the magic circle. The current space capture magic circle is very different from before. It can be said that it has changed from a painting to a small group of statues. A stacked rune board like stalagmites extends the magic circle to the vertical direction, greatly expanding the magic circle's ability. A simple spell focuser made of eighteen small diamonds and crystal mirrors is installed at the top of a stalagmites, and the second dimensional anchor ray that can adjust the direction will be shot out from here.
Everything was ready, Feiqi piled up the spirit coins at his feet and set aside at any time, and then began to stare at the "screen". He could only focus on a small part of the area, and the "refreshing" time of each small piece in this area was different, and it was completely unruly. This was an extremely strict test for eyesight, brainpower and willpower. Feiqi didn't ask for such a arduous task in one go, so he threw away his anxiety and relaxed his spirit, just treat it as a exercise.
"I probably understand now." The Forbidden Demon lowered his voice, so that Fitch could not hear clearly, nor would he interfere with his work. "You are looking for your own body, but the content is too messy to see. There is nothing we can do about it. The physical quality of the Demon Demon is limited, and the intermediate devil cannot handle such a complicated situation."
"So you can do it?"
"Yes, I can help you." said the Forbidden Demon: "Although I don't have a body now, all my strength is concentrated on the soul, and the observation power of this soul is far greater than that of the desire demon, the contract demon and any intermediate devil. I will start to find you now. You just need to listen to my advice carefully. Is this OK?"
"It seems you have a new idea." Feiqi still observed the turbulence in the space and said, "Okay. Since you want to help, there is no reason why I don't listen to your suggestions."
"The soul is very important, but without an excellent body, many strengths cannot be exerted. It is understandable that you want to return to your body, but it is really wasteful. Regardless of the speed of reaction, thinking ability and tenacity, mortals cannot compare with the devil."
"Of course I know this. I have used both the contract demon and the desire demon. Just by mind, the contract demon is much stronger."
