The many spirit patterns and various insights into the Path of Spirit Runes carried by the leaves of the Talent Tree, Lu Ye actually had long speculated about their origins.
Not to ntion the spirit patterns themselves, just speaking of those insights.
Since they are insights, naturally they are related to cultivators and spirit runes masters.
It must be that spirit runes masters who once possessed the Talent Tree injected their own insights into it, thereby benefiting subsequent generations, the so-called planting trees for later generations to enjoy the shade, is this principle.
That's why those many insights are extrely profound, allowing Lu Ye to progress smoothly on the Path of Spirit Runes.
However, not all leaves of the Talent Tree carry insights; many are blank leaves, or perhaps they once carried insights, but due to the passage of ti, they gradually disappeared.
Since obtaining the Talent Tree, Lu Ye has been playing the role of soone enjoying the shade, benefiting from the legacy left by predecessors, but now with the second tamorphosis of the Talent Tree, does he also have to start planting trees?
In other words, if he can construct spirit patterns on these blank leaves, he can later use them as he wishes.
If that is truly the case, then it's not a bad thing for him, but rather a great boon.
Because although the number and types of spirit patterns carried by the Talent Tree are nurous, they are still quite limited; so spirit patterns Lu Ye learned from books are not carried by the Talent Tree.
For example, the Void Spirit Runes he has been longing for!
He originally thought that certain leaves on the Talent Tree must carry this pattern, requiring only himself to continually let the Talent Tree absorb fire-type energy, and sooner or later, he could obtain the Void Spirit Runes.
But now it seems, the situation is not as he imagined.
If things are truly as he thought, then he can completely construct the void on the Talent Tree, thereby mastering it thoroughly, and use this spirit pattern freely in battle.
Previously, the spirit patterns on the Talent Tree were passively accepted, Lu Ye had no choice, but now can he actively choose?
Many thoughts surged in his mind, the more Lu Ye thought, the more he felt it was possible.
If that is truly the case, then the benefits brought to him by the second tamorphosis of the Talent Tree would be imnse.
As for whether it is true or not, trying it out will reveal the answer!
Lu Ye imrsed his mind and began constructing the Void Spirit Runes on those blank leaves.
The Void Spirit Runes are complex, with thousands of changes in Yin-Yang Dual Origins, not sothing a single leaf can bear, Lu Ye estimated it would take at least a dozen leaves.
Fortunately, the number of new leaves burning this ti is sufficient to et the needs of constructing the void.
To him, this isn't a difficult task, because he has always had a high success rate in constructing the void, rarely failing, but this construction, even if quick, requires a certain amount of ti, so he cannot use it in battle.
On the first leaf, many Yin-Yang Dual Origins spread and linked, interlocking with each other, suddenly Lu Ye entered a state of emptiness, where nurous inspirations in his mind continuously erged, as if the entire world beca a world of Yin-Yang Dual Origins, these two basic elents constantly transforming in various combinations, unexpectedly allowing him to glimpse countless changes and possibilities.
The first leaf quickly spread full of Yin-Yang Dual Origins, followed by the second leaf, the third leaf...
Lu Ye completely forgot himself, fully imrsed in it, unable to extricate himself, completely unaware of the changes in himself, like the saying goes, unaware of the affairs outside the window, this is probably the best portrayal of him at this mont.
During the opening process of the leaves of the Talent Tree, Lu Ye obtained many insights and wonderful uses of the Path of Spirit Runes, he thought he had thoroughly absorbed these insights and uses, but in reality, he only tasted the tip, after all, those were the lingering shadows left by predecessors, no matter how deeply he understood them, they remained soone else's things.
But at this mont, these insights and uses once obtained truly transford into his own foundation, and it was precisely in this state of complete self-forgetfulness, his understanding of the Path of Spirit Runes ascended another level, causing nurous inspirations in his mind to conflict and explode.
The spread of Yin-Yang Dual Origins did not continue endlessly, but under Lu Ye's control, sotis growing, sotis fading.
At this mont, he seed to be painting on the leaves of the Talent Tree, erasing and repainting unsatisfactory parts, striving for perfection.
During this process of erasing and modifying, Lu Ye suddenly felt a pain in his mind, suddenly freeing himself from that state of emptiness.
Without his manipulation, the unfinished Void Spirit Runes on the Talent Tree leaves could not continue, at this mont, the Void Spirit Runes were just a semi-finished product.
Lu Ye dazedly opened his eyes, only to see stars dancing before them, and within his body, there was an unprecedented sense of weakness, as if his entire being had been hollowed out.
With a turn of thought, he imdiately understood what had happened.
His Divine Sea, surprisingly, was on the verge of drying up!
In other words, his Divine Soul Power was severely depleted, almost to the point of overdraft.
Lu Ye was shocked, knowing that his current Divine Sea Level 7 cultivation, coupled with consuming many Soul Cleansing Waters, ant that in terms of Divine Soul Power alone, he was not inferior to any elder in the Nine Provinces.
Even so, within this short period of less than half a day, his Divine Soul Power was on the verge of overdraft, indicating the terrifying consumption during the construction of spirit patterns on the Talent Tree leaves.
Simple construction wouldn't have such high consumption; the key is in that mysterious state during spirit pattern construction.
He quickly took out a drop of Soul Cleansing Water and swallowed it, closing his eyes to concentrate, carefully contemplating all that had just happened.
The state he was in just now was clearly abnormal. When constructing the spirit runes, the Talent Tree that had undergone its second tamorphosis seed to play a kind of miraculous guiding role, leading him to deduce and comprehend the path of variation in spirit runes.
The Path of Spirit Runes is unpredictable. Even the sa spirit rune does not have only one way of construction. So thods require more Yin-Yang Dual Origins, so less, so are quicker, and so have stronger effects. It can be said, in the process of constructing, any casual change of a basic elent may entirely alter a spirit rune, or perhaps greatly enhance its effect.
Deriving new spirit runes is what spirit runes masters who have reached a certain level of accomplishnt love to do the most. His master, Yun Xuechu, often deduces spirit runes during retreats.
It is precisely because of the relentless research and deduction by nurous spirit runes masters that the cultivation world today can have such a wide variety of spirit runes available.
However, the birth of a new spirit rune is not an easy matter. For any spirit runes master, deriving a new spirit rune within their lifeti would be enough to secure their place in history.
Lu Ye never thought about deriving a new spirit rune. It is too laborious and ti-consuming. He is a combat cultivator, and cultivation ultimately focuses on one's own self, while the Path of Spirit Runes is just an aid.
Perhaps one day when his cultivation reaches extraordinary accomplishnts, he might have the leisure to do this, but now what he should be doing the most is to quickly enhance his cultivation strength, rather than spending ti on the Path of Spirit Runes.
He never thought about doing this, yet just now, he did it unconsciously!
Obviously, it was not due to him, so there was only one possible reason, the Talent Tree that had undergone the second tamorphosis! He felt this clearly. Perhaps he couldn't perceive it at the ti because his mind was ethereal, but looking back, everything was crystal clear.
When constructing spirit runes on the blank leaves, the Talent Tree miraculously guided him to begin many ntal Consciousness-expensive deductions...
In that state, his mind was instantly filled with countless thoughts and possibilities, which was why there was a great expenditure of Divine Soul Power.
In such a state, he would instinctively choose a more precise and efficient way to build the Yin-Yang Dual Origins, to simplify a complex spirit rune and enhance its effect.
The most direct evidence is the half-finished Void Spirit Rune on the Talent Tree today.
This spirit rune was not completed, but Lu Ye observed the constructed part and could clearly identify many subtle differences from the Void Spirit Rune he had learned from books before.
For now, it seems to have beco more concise, lacking at least a hundred basic elents, as for the effect... since it was not completed, there's no way to compare.
A spirit rune passed down through ages, reduced by over a hundred basic elents in one deduction, is an incredibly terrifying achievent, implying progress in spirit runes. If Lu Ye is willing to promote the completed rune, then in the future, spirit runes masters will find constructing voids much simpler.
Could the Talent Tree have such a miraculous effect?
Lu Ye clicked his tongue in wonder.
Originally, when the Talent Tree completed its second tamorphosis, he thought the change wasn't significant, little did he expect, the Talent Tree would undergo such an astounding change.
And this is just a half-finished product, what would happen if the deduction were completed?
If the Void could be like this, what about other spirit runes?
Suddenly Lu Ye felt as if he had opened the door to a new world.
For now, the change in the Talent Tree doesn't seem to bring any substantial benefit, but if viewed in the long run, it could greatly enhance his Path of Spirit Runes.
He was eager to once again enter that state and complete the deduction construction of the void.
But no matter the Soul Cleansing Water he took, with his current strong psyche, it wasn't an easy matter to fully recover.
He could only wait.
At this mont, suddenly a thunderous noise ca from a certain direction, accompanied by the turmoil of the entire world.
Lu Ye was startled, he flashed out and hovered in the sky, looking into the distance.
He saw nothing, for the sound must have co from far away, but it felt as if soone over there was engaged in a fierce battle.
This left him puzzled, as the Nine Provinces were relatively peaceful now, the elders had ascended to Constellation, exploring stellar space, like Sect Master Long Bai of that level, they were leaving one after another.
Who was fighting over there, and why was the disturbance so imnse?
When in doubt, ask Number Nine!
Lu Ye imdiately raised his hand to tap on the battlefield marking, softly calling: "Number Nine!"
In the past, every ti he called, Number Nine would always respond imdiately.
But to Lu Ye's surprise, this ti Number Nine gave no response.
Lu Ye called several tis, finally realizing sothing was amiss.
