Chapter 250 I am a little fish (5)
There's a 70% chance that 6058 is due to Meng Li.
There must be only one reason why Lu Mingguang didn't directly talk about Mr. Yuan's involvement in this world: the matter was too complicated to explain simply, or perhaps the clues Lu Mingguang had were too fragmented to know where to begin.
Lu Mingguang was clearly unsure how much information they had, which is why he chose to meet and discuss it together.
Furthermore, as a demigod, Lu Mingguang usually comes to the small world with a mission. Based on 6058's understanding of him, once a chance to connect with a signal is finally available, unless he is too busy to spare the time, he would not end the conversation between the two so hastily.
Given that Lu Mingguang didn't ask much about Meng Li before directly saying "I'm coming to find you," it's reasonable to deduce that Meng Li must play a crucial role in this world, perhaps even more so than in the original timeline.
Having a rough idea in mind, 6058 continued to think about what to do next.
Now that they know Meng Li is the key figure, 6058 is no longer in a hurry to find a way to leave. Instead, they wait for Lu Mingguang's news to see what information Meng Li can bring out.
As 6058 pondered this, he entered a meditative state.
·
The night was as dark as ink, staining the entire sky black, and Jingli suddenly snapped out of his meditation.
He seemed to sense something, looked around, but found nothing in the neglected room.
The air seemed to have gotten a little colder, giving Jingli a slight chill.
This was quite unusual for him, a demon.
Jingli frowned slightly, but did not disturb 6058 beside her.
Both of them had only recently taken human form, and in the parlance of this world, their foundations were not yet very stable. It would be extremely dangerous to abruptly interrupt their cultivation and meditation.
Jingli did not make any rash moves.
Although he left the state of enlightenment very smoothly, he knew that this was not a natural end to his cultivation, but rather as if he had been gently awakened by someone.
At this moment, his control over spiritual power was much smoother than during the day. He focused some of it into his eyes and tried to see if there were any clues left in the room.
Unfortunately, he found nothing.
Just as he was about to try drawing talismans in mid-air, he suddenly had a feeling that something was "watching" him from behind.
Turning around, I saw a pair of bright yellow eyes flash by.
"It's a stray cat, isn't it?" Jingli wiped the goosebumps off her body and calmly muttered to herself.
The eyes weren't large, suggesting that their owner wasn't particularly big either.
There were two fish spirits inside the house, and the hungry stray cat was attracted to come and take a look, which is only natural for a cat.
Jingli continued to convince herself.
He didn't overestimate his abilities and chase after them, leaving 6058 alone in the house, which was not a wise choice.
Jingli let out a long breath and began to try out the aerial talisman drawing technique he had been studying all afternoon.
There are four types of talismans he needs to draw.
The first type is a talisman based on the same principle as the cleansing talisman used by 6058. 6058 has already found the method for drawing the talisman in the system space and given it to him. It is not difficult to learn. The main test is his ability to gather and control spiritual power.
He can now skillfully draw basic water, fire, and thunder talismans, though their power varies.
He was a fish, naturally fond of water, so the water talismans he drew would be relatively more powerful, but they were still just water balls the size of a fist. The fire and thunder talismans were much weaker.
The second method is to transplant the technique of drawing talismans with spiritual power to energy. He is already very familiar with this, and after practicing for a short while, he was able to reach 80% of the skill he had previously acquired when drawing talismans on paper.
Unfortunately, while this talisman was very effective against shadows in the past, it was somewhat inadequate against the black mist surrounding Meng Li.
However, for Jingli to reach this level in just one afternoon is already considered genius in this world.
Moreover, Jingli spent most of the afternoon figuring out the latter two types of talismans.
The latter two types of symbols are different from everyone else in this world because they are related to the energy within the landscape.
Jingli tried to use spiritual power as a foundation, spiritual power as a medium, and energy as a catalyst, ideally combining the two powers of energy and spiritual power to amplify the power of energy.
Subsequently, Jingli tried using energy as a medium and spiritual power as a catalyst to see if she could amplify the effect of spiritual power.
Both methods are still in the experimental stage and neither can be fully executed yet. But as he thought, both methods amplify spiritual power or energy.
"It seems the key lies in mastering the conversion between energy and spiritual power."
Jingli murmured to himself, casually using energy to draw a few talismans and set up an array around the two of them, serving as a protector for 6058, who was still in a meditative state.
At the same time, Jingli heard a tiny squeal.
He was startled and looked around, but still found nothing.
The strange groans that had been emanating from the room subsided somewhat, and now, a slight ripple in the air was clearly visible in the scene.
It's Meng Li.
She raised an eyebrow and looked at Jingli: "Aren't you going to cultivate?"
As always, she didn't wait for Jingli's reply. She wrinkled her nose and looked around.
"Has anyone been here?"
She used a declarative sentence, and with a gentle squeeze of her slender, fair hand, the scene obscured what was in her hand, but a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"It's getting lively here too. I picked up two little fish demons, Bai Yun Que came to see me, and now another one has slipped in—a demon!"
As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she produced a whip from who-knows-where.
The whip was surrounded by the same black aura that enveloped her during the day, but it was even thicker than the night, making her look as if she had come from purgatory.
When she spoke again, her voice was no longer as soft and charming as before; each word was deliberate and urgent: "Is it you? Two little fish? What are you planning to do here?"
Jingli didn't understand what she meant at all. Her actions were faster than her thoughts. On one hand, she brought out the array she had set up during the day, and on the other hand, she retrieved a low-level sound-blocking card from the system to prevent 6058 from being forcibly awakened from its meditative state and causing bad consequences.
Then, using an energy shield to protect him and 6058, he spoke at the same time:
"I don't know what you're talking about, I know nothing."
He was fearless, simultaneously channeling his spiritual power and energy, causing his eyes to emit a faint pink glow. The scales at his temples gradually materialized and slightly opened, making him look incredibly eerie, yet his aura was not overshadowed by Meng Li.
The moment the light emitted by the energy shield touched the whip, a sizzling sound came again, and the end of the whip slowly faded from black, becoming faintly visible in the night.
This time, Meng Li did not completely lose her mind.
She twisted her body like a snake and moved closer to Jingli, her pert nose almost touching Jingli's skin, and Jingli could feel her breath.
It was so cold that he felt a burning pain in that small patch of skin.
