Lin Luoran had not been 100% sure if Baojia could cultivate, so he hadn't told Commander Qin about it. Now that he heard the old story of the Qin family, it turned out that Baojia's great-grandmother was a famous female cultivator. Although Commander Qin's father didn't have a cultivation foundation and neither did Commander Qin himself, Lin Luoran was 100% sure that this thing had either been passed down to Baojia through generations or had been forcefully activated by the power of her golden patterns. It was almost certain that Baojia had a cultivation foundation.
She met Qin's commander's hopeful eyes and nodded slowly and solemnly.
Qin Shouling was overjoyed for a moment, and he was speechless for a long time. After a while, he took out a pendant from his body and kept rubbing it.
Lin Luoran took a closer look and found that it was a piece of sheep fat white jade pendant, with delicate gold threads inlaid around the edges. However, the surface of the jade pendant was covered with cracks. At first glance, one could tell that it was an old craftsman's repair technique. Lin Luoran looked at the scene, but her eyes lit up.
Qin Shiling looked at her expression and naturally knew what she was thinking. He nodded and said, "This is the jade pendant that my grandmother passed down to me when I was young, which broke into pieces on the battlefield... Because that Taoist priest said it was my grandmother's destined jade pendant, my father later found a craftsman to repair it, and only passed it down to me before he died."
Could it be the Jade Token that protects its master? As soon as Lin Luo thought of the golden silk-embedded object in Qin's hand, which was refined by a cultivator, he couldn't help but have shining eyes and wanted to take a closer look.
He expressed this idea to Commander Qin, the old man smiled and put the jade plate in Lin Luoran's hand, saying that he had spoken for half a night and went to rest first.
Apart from the bead, Lin Luo Ran was also touching a cultivator's item for the first time, and he was so excited that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
It's really amazing to think about tonight, first witnessing the monk's combat methods, then learning about "Daoji" from Commander Qin, and even hearing some secrets of the Xiu Zhen world. One surprise after another, now there is still a Xiu Zhen object passed down from the Qin family in Lin Luo Ran's hands, how can she sleep?
She went back to her room, turned on the desk lamp and carefully examined the jade pendant.
Although the jade plaque is full of cracks, it can still be seen that the picture "Fishing Boat on the River Reflecting the Moon" is carved on the jade plaque. Simple strokes, but extraordinary spirit.
Jiang Mingyue - this must be the lifesaving thing that the crazy Taoist priest refined for Jiang Mingyue, although Commander Qin never explicitly said who the crazy Taoist priest was, with Lin Luoran's cleverness, how could she not figure it out, it must be Jiang Mingyue's relative, or even her father!
If it weren't for her close relatives, who would be willing to knowingly follow the Qin family, who are all useless without "Dao base", all the way to Korea? What a coincidence, that Taoist priest obviously went there specifically to protect Commander Qin.
Lin Luoran recalled her thoughts and carefully looked at the jade pendant in her hand. Even if the carved patterns on it were vivid, it could dodge attacks and protect the wearer, but that was definitely not because of its fine craftsmanship.
But what's the difference after all?
Even with Lin Luo Ran's sharp eyesight, she couldn't see anything special about it. She picked up the jade pendant again and examined it carefully under the light source of the desk lamp.
Huh, something seems off. Lin Luoran only then used her Clear and Calm Eyes to take another look, the golden border of the sheep fat white jade pendant was gone, and the cracks on it were also ignored by her eyes, she "saw" into the interior of the pendant - what are those strange lines?
Lin Luo Ran was certain that it wasn't a crack, although it was mixed in with the dense cracks, but those wonderful lines were filled with a very harmonious and comfortable feeling, as if it had always been that way.
Lin Luoran infused his spiritual energy into the jade pendant, and a thread of spiritual energy went inside to explore. As expected, after receiving the nourishment from the spiritual energy, those lines actually lit up one by one. Perhaps because the jade pendant had been broken before, the cracks broke the path of the spiritual energy lines. Although the lines lit up bit by bit, they couldn't form a complete circular path, which made Lin Luoran feel very regretful.
Even so, Lin Luo Ran was still very surprised. These lines that could guide the spiritual energy might be the legendary formation of a Cultivator after all? After all, relying solely on this weak spiritual energy, it would be difficult to achieve the effect Qin Shou said, which could save his life several times on the battlefield.
Only with the array methods of Huaxia, which have many legendary stories among the people, can we utilize the unpredictable abilities of humans and ghosts. By relying solely on special array materials, it is possible to increase power several times or even dozens of times!
The jade pendant was broken like this, and if you want to repair it, with Lin Luoran's current skills, that's just a pipe dream. Lin Luoran had an idea, what if she drew a picture of it instead?
Lin Luoran didn't think she was exceptionally talented, and could only rely on the residual array to imitate it, but if it's just about contemplating the printed copy? It should be feasible, right?
Lin Luoran had paper and pen in her room, so she didn't have to disturb others at midnight. With the paper spread out and a pen in her right hand, Lin Luoran once again sensed the spiritual energy towards the jade card.
The lines inside the jade plate were still being lit up one by one, but Lin Luoer's movements this time were extremely slow, as she looked at them with her right hand also in action, the tip of the pen in her hand moving nimbly, trying to trace those lines bit by bit.
The place where the line is broken is not a problem, it's just about one micron distance, affecting the smoothness of the spirit, but does not affect the overall array of the seal.
The entire formation inside the jade pendant looks very small, and logically speaking, the workload should not be large. However, it is precisely because of its small size that all these lines are carved on such a small surface, which can imagine how complex the complete pattern of this formation is.
From one to three in the morning, Lin Luoran was still only halfway through drawing, trying to control the subtle changes of the lines. The thick and thin lines were not done with a single stroke, but were proportionally copied onto the jade plate, because she couldn't guarantee that these uneven, frequency-changing mysterious lines might have played a role in communicating with heaven and earth through the jade plate as a medium.
The hour hand moves slowly, and a faint light has already appeared outside the window. This is because it's winter, and the sky brightens late.
Lin Luoran blinked her eyes and finally put down the jade plate and pencil in her hand.
Huh? Is it already six o'clock? Looking at the time on his watch, Lin Luo Ran still couldn't believe it. No wonder his eyes were sore and his right arm was almost too heavy to lift. The spiritual energy inside him was also protesting and going on strike. It turned out that he had unknowingly painted for a whole night.
Looking at the white paper, the pattern that had been enlarged by himself to tens of times its original size, with its head and tail connected, was smooth and clear in its lines, and as a whole, it was exceptionally exquisite. Lin Luo Ran let out a long sigh.
It's indeed a formation that can communicate with the heavens and the earth, and from which one can gain useful insights. For me, tonight's efforts are also very worthwhile.
Besides, if it can be completely printed out, then making another one by yourself shouldn't be really impossible, right?
Lin Luoran carefully examined her own labor achievements and revealed a satisfied smile.
But somehow these lines feel very familiar?
