The art of transformation magic is still very important.
It allows chaotic and violent evil spirits, enemies filled with hatred and hostility, to be transformed into devout believers, possessing a peaceful mind and fervent faith.
This prevents the occurrence of laziness and betrayal.
Soul-rearing techniques rely on restrictions to control evil spirits. When the master is strong, they can suppress them, but if they are weak, they are easily backlashed by the evil spirits.
Lu Wen’s current cultivation system has taken shape. His cultivation technique is the first version of the synthesized and enhanced breathing and exhaling method, and he has close combat skills like internal boxing.
But outwardly, he is a mage, using the resentment spirits in the Human Emperor Banner to fight against enemies.
The realm on his personal attribute panel remains at the Zeroth Order, after all, he has just begun to cultivate.
But he can easily deal with dozens of people, and it’s no problem to wipe out hundreds overnight.
Just using the Human Emperor Banner, it immediately starts to emit black smoke, making anyone who sees it think it's a demonic path.
“I need to get a skin for it quickly, otherwise it's too flashy,” Lu Wen thought to himself.
He continued to cultivate by hanging up overnight, attracting the moonlight from the sky to increase and condense his soul.
Early the next morning, Lu Wen went to town to buy the materials for making paper people.
He returned home and started to practice the Yin Spirit Paper Man technique.
He processed and cut the materials for the paper people, then refined the evil spirit and paper man into a whole.
The paper man’s appearance was not the same as the evil spirit's in life, Lu Wen chose a dark golden full-body fish scale armor.
In his vision, the Yin Spirit warriors were just tools, they only needed to be perfect killing machines.
By noon, Lu Wen had just finished making the Yin Spirit warriors, and was using the methods in the Soul-rearing technique to suppress and subdue each evil spirit, making them refine their paper man artifact, when someone suddenly came knocking.
“Is Mr. Lu Wen home?” someone called out loudly from the doorway.
Lu Wen came out to see that several people with completely different spirits were standing at the door, including the one who had greeted Uncle Jiu yesterday.
“Other Shenzhou transmigrators?” Lu Wen guessed in his heart. This kind of spirit is rarely seen in people from this era of Shenzhou.
As for them coming to him, Lu Wen wasn’t surprised.
After all, his recent overseas study background makes him a hot topic in Renjia Town, and a little investigation would reveal his identity.
“Come in,” Lu Wen didn't hide or conceal himself.
Without any pleasantries, Lu Wen asked directly: “What do you want from me?”
The leader didn't mind. He asked solemnly: “It won't be long before the Japanese invade Shenzhou. Mr. Lu Wen, do you have any thoughts?”
“Oh! You’ve also thought about this issue. What plan do you have?” Lu Wen asked.
The group was immediately excited, and the leader even said with a trembling voice: “We are going to find that great man. Although we can't provide much help, by telling him some things we know about the future, we can help him avoid some detours.”
Lu Wen knew who they were talking about, but the Heavenly Tortoise was too powerful to change the flow of time.
He was moved. Who wouldn’t be excited at the opportunity to meet those great men who devoted themselves to Shenzhou?
Moreover, this didn’t conflict with his plans. He could also walk through this era and gain some knowledge.
“When are you leaving?” Lu Wen asked.
“We have already dealt with the things we brought from our identities and raised some funds. We plan to leave this afternoon,” said the leader.
Lu Wen asked with doubt: “Your second mission is to deal with Old Master Ren’s zombie, right? You're giving up all the rewards you could get by just hanging around?”
The group scoffed and the leader said: “Old Master Ren is nothing, if our plan is successful, we should be able to get more rewards!”
Lu Wen understood. He then asked: “Do you know where that great man is now?”
He wanted to know if these people were just acting on impulse and going in blind,
or if they had clear, well-defined plans.
“We are not sure where the great man is, but we are planning to go to Guangxi Province first to inquire, and then go to visit him after we get more information,” said the leader.
After listening, Lu Wen thought for a moment.
In this era of warlord rule, it’s dangerous to travel hundreds of kilometers to a provincial capital. Along the way, there are poisonous insects and beasts, ghosts and demons, bandits and thieves everywhere, making the task much more difficult than facing Old Master Ren’s zombie.
With Lu Wen's current strength, he wouldn't dare to travel far.
Therefore, he felt that although the group had thought things through, their thinking hadn't changed yet, they hadn’t realized that this world has ghosts and demons.
Lu Wen expressed his thoughts, and the group looked at each other in confusion.
The leader asked for help: “Mr. Lu Wen, do you have a better plan?”
“You can go and ask Uncle Jiu for help. He can escort you to find that great man, and you can wait a few more days to complete your first survival task, which will give you the confidence to quit at any time,” Lu Wen said, he had already decided not to go with them.
Lu Wen could imagine the potential trouble along the way.
The group suddenly realized. They had treated Uncle Jiu as a game character and hadn't thought about the fact that this is a real world.
Actually, it’s normal. The world changing is too surreal, most people didn’t have time to react.
After a while, after experiencing several world adventures, they will gain experience.
Lu Wen’s words gave the group confidence again. They reinforced their original idea, determined to see their target, and tell them about some things that will happen in the future.
Also, since ghosts and demons exist in this world, bringing Uncle Jiu to the great man’s side could also guarantee his safety.
Lu Wen let the few transmigrators go to find Uncle Jiu, discussing the cost of hiring him to escort them.
While Lu Wen packed up his belongings, he slipped away from Renjia Town.
He felt that those transmigrators would easily be interrogated by Uncle Jiu, and then his existence would be exposed.
Lu Wen had never underestimated cultivators. He had prepared beforehand so that Uncle Jiu couldn’t find him.
If he ran around in front of Uncle Jiu and showed any unusual behavior, he would be suspected.
Uncle Jiu is now on edge, and any abnormality will be strongly suspected.
Lu Wen didn’t want to play mind games with Uncle Jiu.
However, he didn’t dare to run around. He stayed near Renjia Town to find the materials he needed for synthesis.
With Uncle Jiu in Renjia Town, he wouldn’t have to worry about a powerful ghost or demon suddenly appearing.
In the next few days, Lu Wen multitasked, running the cultivation technique on autopilot, constantly recovering and increasing his energy limit.
He also kept using his talent ability to synthesize.
First, he expanded the volume of his portable space to sixteen cubic meters, a huge increase in capacity to hold many things.
In case of danger, he can hide in his portable space, but he needs to pay attention to oxygen consumption and keep the ventilation holes open in a suitable position.
Then he worked on the Human Emperor Banner. Lu Wen wandered around the mountains for two days, before finding several Yin trees that were hundreds of years old. He synthesized these Yin trees’ ability to gather Yin energy to create the flagpole of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
