I will teach you how to cultivate immortality

Chapter 286 Compound Spells (23)

When Li Boyang returned to Feilai Peak.

I learned of the kingfisher's arrival from Xiao Gui immediately.

After a brief moment of thought, Li Boyang spoke to the two boys, Jin and Yin, behind him.

"Since you insist on following me, then the affairs of this mountain god temple will be entrusted to you from now on."

"In addition to the daily cleaning and tidying, you are also responsible for tasks like guiding people up the mountain."

"Who among you is willing to bring that kingfisher up the mountain now?"

They looked at each other in bewilderment, and then the Golden Boy and the Silver Boy raised their hands simultaneously.

"Don't worry, I won't show favoritism."

“One of you go and lure the kingfisher up the mountain, and I have work to do for the other person as well.”

Li Boyang saw through Jin and Yin's little scheme at a glance and couldn't help but smile.

"Golden Horn, you're more composed, so you can go this time!"

"As for Silver Horn, you take those gourd vines to the back mountain to find the incarnation of the female barbarian and take care of these gourd vines with them!"

After receiving their respective tasks, the two children, Jin and Yin, immediately left the mountain god temple in high spirits.

This scene made Xi Luo roll her eyes; she simply couldn't believe that these two childish guys were actually two innate gods.

"Golden Horn? Silver Horn?"

"You chose a really casual name, which is exactly like the style of you mountain people."

Hearing Xi Luo's complaints, Li Boyang retorted without taking it to heart.

"I'm a mountain dweller, is there anything wrong with me being casual about my naming style?"

"Besides, I never said that was their official name..."

"Even according to the customs of the mountain people, a child can only be given a formal name after he is seven or eight years old."

This is indeed a custom of the mountain people, but Xi Luo is more concerned about another issue now.

"You really treat them like children?"

"If we're really talking about danger, they're even more dangerous than your apprentice."

“At least your apprentice has his mother and grandfather, who are bound by family ties, but they are truly all alone.”

Li Boyang shrugged slightly and took over the conversation.

"That's why I didn't let them hang out with the mountain people or ghosts and gods, but instead had them work as little temple attendants in this mountain god temple first."

"With you watching over things, the situation can't get much worse, right?"

With just a few words, Xi Luo's lips curled up in a smile again, and she even forgot her initial objections.

"What you said is not wrong!"

"After all, the Golden Horn and Silver Horn are the innate offspring left behind by my sister, so I can barely be considered their family!"

But after saying that, Xi Luo suddenly remembered the gold and silver gourd.

"What about the two gourds from before?"

"What do you plan to do with those two gourds?"

Those two gourds are the "birth membranes" of Golden Horn and Silver Horn.

Even among all rare and precious materials, it is definitely among the top-tier.

"Although both the gold and silver gourds are plants, they can be used in medicine..."

"But it would be too wasteful to use them solely for alchemy, so I plan to use them for weapon crafting."

Upon hearing Li Boyang's words, Xi Luo, who was already quite interested, immediately became even more intrigued.

"Weapon refining?"

"What kind of divine artifact are you planning to forge this time?"

"I've suddenly realized that you seem to have more treasures than I do?"

"Besides your natal divine sword, there's the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor, followed by the Prison Soul Cauldron, the Taiji Diagram, the Mountain and River Map, the Red Leather Robe, and the God-Binding Rope..."

"And then there are all those random, haphazard things you make that you don't even like to use yourself..."

As Xi Luo recounted each item, she realized that Li Boyang had far more "treasures" than she had imagined.

Putting aside everything else, just consider Li Jingshu and E'tu. The sheer number of treasures they possess is beyond the imagination of ordinary gods.

In this day and age, even gods as powerful as Houtianshi and Wuzhiqi would find it difficult to possess a truly satisfactory divine artifact.

On the other hand, these two mortals, relying on the equipment that Li Boyang tailored for them, entered a rhythm of "fighting monsters above their level".

Not to mention, Li Boyang's understanding of "treasures" is also quite unique.

The bronze beasts that gradually spread throughout the mountains and rivers, and the Hetu Luoshu that are now almost universally distributed in every village, are the best proof of this.

We do not pursue the unique and unreplicable supreme artifact.

Instead, they sought props and equipment that could be mass-produced at low cost.

With this philosophy in mind, it's not hard to understand why Li Boyang possesses a vast amount of treasures.

"Refine what?"

After Xi Luo's reminder, Li Boyang realized that he did indeed have quite a few magical treasures.

It would be a waste of the potential of the gold and silver gourd to only refine some simple and repetitive magical artifacts.

"If that's how you put it, I really don't know what to refine."

As he pondered this, Li Boyang suddenly waved his hand gently.

Two gourds, one gold and one silver, each as tall as a person, slowly emerged from its shadow.

"This golden gourd is indestructible and suitable for being forged into a piece of armor..."

"This silver gourd contains primordial energy, which is more inclined towards offensive attributes..."

Under the influence of supernatural power, the gold and silver gourds slowly floated into the air.

It was only at this moment that Li Boyang had the opportunity to examine these two "congenital placenta" carefully.

"However, whether it is simply armor or weapons, it would be a waste of these two gourds."

The third eye between the eyebrows slowly opened.

Li Boyang could clearly see the unlimited potential of these two gourds.

Even though the innate deity they conceived has already descended to earth, these two gourds have not lost their function.

On the contrary, because it absorbed the power of Golden Horn, Silver Horn and Thunder, it underwent a further transformation in terms of its texture.

"How about using these two gourds as carriers of proverbs and incantations, just like your Tai Chi diagram and the map of mountains and rivers?"

When she said this, Xi Luo's eyes shone, and she had a premeditated expression on her face.

It's obvious that Xi Luo had similar ideas a long time ago.

I'm just taking this opportunity to express my thoughts.

"Hmm, that's a good idea."

Li Boyang certainly favors the industrialized mass production model.

But that doesn’t mean he rejects unique, irreplaceable artifacts.

"However, of those twelve talismans, how many are suitable for these two gourds?"

His gaze unconsciously drifted to the red leather fur coat he was wearing, and Li Boyang fell into deep thought.

Unlike the [Tai Chi Diagram] and [Mountains and Rivers Diagram], which maximize the power of a single talisman, this one is different.

The talismans that make up this red leather robe are multiple, and the materials consumed in the process are relatively easy to obtain.

The fur coat provided by Xi Luo, Li Boyang's own hair, the pelt of the seven-tailed fox, the spider silk of the Suspended Silk Maiden...

These materials also show that this red leather robe was basically an experimental product used by Li Boyang to study and test the power of the aphorisms and spells.

As long as it is a proverb or incantation that Li Boyang has already mastered.

Most of these materials are used on this red leather fur coat to test its functionality and fit.

I've pretty much mastered all the basic spells...

[Shouldn't we now formally explore the possibilities of 'compound spells'?]

[If we base it on 'congenital placenta,' even if it ultimately fails, it won't be too bad, right?]
