As Ou Yangming’s martial arts cultivation base was increased to Cla.s.s Four, his basic attributes increased correspondingly. Much to his surprise, his mental power improved too.
The extra points for Physique and mental power were contributions from the Blood Flight waist sash.
Overall, the increase of attribute points proved that his cultivation efforts were not in vain.
Nonetheless, Ou Yangming was shocked to see the Runes Formation Skill.
He only learned the Runes Skill and had not touched on the legendary formations. Even so, he knew that appraisal art was the result of Heaven and Earth’s mighty power, so there could not have been a mistake.
Before long, Ou Yangming was struck with a flash of wisdom. It turned out that the stone arrangement that seemed like it was casually set up by Elder Universe was a formation.
Since Ou Yangming accidentally s.h.i.+fted the formation into his sea of consciousness, it meant that he had also learned a formation. Although he had not grasped any knowledge about formations, appraisal art approved of his ability.
Ou Yangming smiled embarra.s.sedly and focused on his consciousness one more.
This time, he noticed a strange occurrence.
In the center of his sea of consciousness, the Runes Formation turned into a circle and released a mysterious power, which triggered his mental power to circulate. The enormous mental power kept spiraling around the formation like a stream of water, and each time it circulated, subtle energy was produced. The happening ran on the same theory as when Ou Yangming cultivated under the moonlight, but the only difference was that the cultivation environment was s.h.i.+fted to the center of his consciousness, and he could cultivate at any time and anywhere. Moreover, the formation stimulated more than just his mental power; items that were wrapped by the purple lights were also eager to move.
Whether it was the purple attributes or the four other runes, they all expressed the eagerness to enter the center of the Runes Formation.
When Ou Yangming put an act to his thought, a run instantly flew up. It was the most solid Upgrade Rune, and it quietly floated to the center of the formation.
Since Ou Yangming was the one who built the formation, the other runes could not enter without his permission, but the formation could not stop them if he gave the order.
The rune landed in the middle of the formation map, then it floated again and somehow became more solid than it already was. Besides, Ou Yangming was in disbelief because a faint unreal image was seen beneath the rune.
Ou Yangming observed it for some time, then his face took on an odd expression.
This was because he identified what the imaginary image was.
It turned out to be an arm guard. Beneath the rune, the unreal image of an arm guard slowly appeared.
The rune’s effect was to upgrade inexpensive arm guards’ grades and ranks, allowing a Common Grade arm guard to advance to Good Grade. In that case, it made sense for an arm guard’s image to appear below the rune.
Nevertheless, Ou Yangming looked confused while he kept his eyes closed.
He had a vague feeling that he had neglected something
All of a sudden, his body shook, and the mental power that spiraled around the Runes Formation paused as well.
Ou Yangming’s heart began to pound drastically, and a bizarre yet seemingly achievable thought appeared in his mind.
The center of the Runes Formation could be utilized to reinforce other runes.
If the process was carried out in reverse, could other runes be derived?
Ou Yangming inhaled deeply and used his mind to guide the rune out of the middle of the formation. Even though the rune left the center, the faintly visible arm guard did not disappear.
It was evident that the formation had an incredible function.
Despite that, it was not the right timing to study the formation map. Ou Yangming paid full attention to the visualization process.
The young fellow was a great Military Fire Blacksmith. He had not been in the trade for a long time, but he had certainly produced several types of equipment. Therefore, Ou Yangming had a good understanding of various equipment.
He needed to visualize a weapon at the moment.
After some considerations, Ou Yangming decided to first visualize a military saber.
While he was the most adept in spear technique now, the commonly used weapon in the military was the military saber. If he entered the forest, he could not carry a spear, which could be a burden.
As Ou Yangming focused on his sea of consciousness, he tried his best to recall a military saber’s structure.
