Chapter 55 - I want to eat

”It really is a animal spirit that only fiends have!” Elder Xu was surprised. Facing Long Bufan's attack, he was still standing at the same place calmly, but with a flip of his palm, a yellow talisman paper appeared in his hand. Upon closer inspection, the paper was actually engraved with a mini rune array, which faintly shone with light.

Just as the dragon claw was two inches away from Elder Xu, an earthen yellow light suddenly appeared, enveloping Elder Xu's entire body.

Bang!

A dull sound of impact came out, the energy that the light vortex had reflected on Long Bufan's attack, causing him to feel a numbing pain in his arm, following that, his body was pushed back by a burst of energy that felt like the ground, until the wall stabilized.

Long Bufan was secretly shocked, what kind of rune array was this?

If I'm not wrong, that day at the stone stairs, the gravity array was absorbed by the animal spirit in your body. ”” That's right. The Elder Xu looked at Long Bufan with a smile that was not a smile, held onto his beard and said meaningfully: ”Luckily you are a human being, otherwise, you wouldn't be standing here right now but instead be the sect's punishment hall.”

Long Bufan retreated out of his beast form, rubbing his nose, he remained silent.

”Although this old man is very curious as to how you obtained the animal spirit, everyone has their own secrets, so I won't force you.” Elder Xu squinted his eyes and stared straight at Long Bufan, as if he could see through his thoughts. He changed the topic and asked: ”How much do you understand about rune array, tell me and I'll listen.”

Long Bufan laughed sinisterly. Earlier, he had went back to Hai Pavilion to look up some shallow solutions to the rune array, and immediately replied with a smug look on his face, ”The rune array is divided into gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind and thunder. According to the drawing pattern, elemental energy will be used.

”This is just general knowledge on the surface.” The Elder Xu nodded his head and said: ”To learn the rune array, the most important thing is to accurately control the power of the spirit energy. This is because when inscribing runes, the amount of spirit energy used has to be controlled to a certain degree.

However, it was not something an ordinary person could call upon. This required day after day of practice, and many primary Charm Magician s had difficulty memorizing the structure of the runes and the basic theories, but when learning how to control the precision of the soul force, they were unable to enter the door.

”Take the basic array diagrams in this book and practice them. After you control your elemental energy well, I'll teach you how to use the carrier inscriptions so that you won't waste any of the materials.” The Elder Xu said, as he took out a two inch thick record from the bookshelf and handed it over to Long Bufan.

Flipping open the rune, Long Bufan randomly found a simple fire type array 'light array' and carefully observed the diagram on the paper. He circulated the spirit energy in his body to his fingertips and drew it according to the array picture.
