Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

Chapter 1302: Chapter 508: My Luoshu

Bluestone Cave Mansion, Cultivation Room.

The array patterns on the four walls shimmer, isolating this cultivation room from the outside world. Inside, only a blue lamp is lit, with its flickering flame illuminating Ning Zhuo’s calm face.

He is seated cross-legged on a cushion, with a thin sheet of paper floating before him.

Luoshu Book Pages.

It’s neither gold nor jade, neither silk nor stone, as thin as a cicada’s wings, yet seemingly bearing the weight of a mountain.

Ning Zhuo takes a deep breath.

Refining a Taoist Artifact is not an easy task.

It’s important to know that Ning Zhuo is only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Ning Zhuo begins his breathing control.

Within the Middle Dantian, a five-colored vortex slowly rotates, the Five Elements Mana resembling a dragon tornado, supporting heaven and earth. In the Upper Dantian, countless mirror surfaces silently float, with Divine Sense ceaselessly circulating within them. In the Lower Dantian, the blood pool churns, with blood vessels intertwining like vines.

The Three Dantians operate simultaneously.

Ning Zhuo slowly extends his right hand.

His five fingers are as white as jade, emitting a faint glow in the lamp’s light.

He takes a deep breath and lightly presses his palm onto the Luoshu Book Pages.

Divine Refining!

In an instant, the whole Divine Sea of the big-headed youth begins to tremble violently.

Countless dots, divided into black and white, surge into his consciousness like tides. Each dot contains vast amounts of information—numbers of the earth’s operation, the laws of the sun and moon’s rotation, the changes in the star’s trajectory, the principles of all things’ birth and death.

The information is too vast and profound, far beyond what a Foundation Establishment Cultivator can bear. Ning Zhuo’s Divine Sense Mirror shatters piece by piece, thoughts consuming crazily, as if the entire Divine Sea is about to explode.

He can’t help but let out a muffled groan, a trickle of fresh blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Ning Zhuo doesn’t let go.

Magic Refining!

Five Elements Mana is activated with full force, transforming into a five-colored palm, flying outside Ning Zhuo’s body, tightly grasping the Luoshu Book Pages. Five Elements Generating, revolving endlessly, permeating into the pages layer by layer.

Blood Refining!

At the same time, the blood pool in the Lower Dantian churns, transforming into a surge of Blood Qi. The Blood Qi spreads, condensing countless tiny blood vessels, covering the surface of the Luoshu Book Pages. Each blood vessel wriggles like a living thing, starting to contaminate the pages.

Divine Refining, Magic Refining, Blood Refining.

Common cultivators usually perform one refining, but Ning Zhuo cultivates all three Dantians, thus able to perform three refining methods.

Three Dantians, three forces, simultaneously refining the Taoist Artifact.

But even so, Ning Zhuo still feels the strain.

The power of the Taoist Artifact is too strong.

His complexion turns increasingly pale, beads of sweat seep from his forehead, and his fingers begin to tremble slightly. The Luoshu Book Pages tremble violently in his palm, as if about to break free at any moment.

"Little Zhuo, let me assist you!"

It’s Sun Lingtong.

Formally refining a Taoist Artifact is a major task, fraught with difficulties. Of course, Sun Lingtong personally comes to assist.

Round after round of Stealing Techniques are deployed by Sun Lingtong, covering the Luoshu.

Ning Zhuo immediately feels the pressure reduce.

The refining continues.

Sun Lingtong’s complexion quickly turns pale, silent nosebleeds flowing down. He bites his teeth, not uttering a sound, continuing to cast spells.

Ning Zhuo’s eyes widen, his eyeballs filled with bloodstains.

The Three Dantians operate at full force, Five Elements Mana, Mirror Platform Divine Sense, Demon-Infused Essence Blood, three forces not sparing any consumption, crazily pouring into the Luoshu Book Pages.

The pages tremble violently, black and white dots constantly emerge, impacting Ning Zhuo’s Divine Sea. Jade light flows on the pages, resisting the mana and Demon Blood.

Sun Ning and the others exhaust all their strength right from the start, just refining three-tenths, already nearing their limits.

"What to do?" Ning Zhuo frowns tightly.

It’s his first time obtaining a Taoist Artifact, also his first attempt at refining it.

Although he has read extensively, the books do not mention the content of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator refining a Taoist Artifact.

"Could it be that after all our efforts to acquire the Luoshu Book Pages, we can’t truly make them our own?" Sun Lingtong’s confidence also wavers intensely.

Magic Artifact, Magic Treasure, Spiritual Treasure, Taoist Artifact.

The Taoist Artifact is above Spiritual Treasure, its level is indeed very high. Ning Zhuo’s mere Foundation Establishment Cultivation makes refining it quite difficult.

With failure looming, a voice suddenly resonates deep within Ning Zhuo’s heart: "Foolish child, Luoshu is the source of mathematics, how could you forcibly refine it? If it were not originally belonging to your mother, sensing our bloodline connection, you wouldn’t be able to refine even half of it."

Ning Zhuo’s body and mind shake greatly, overjoyed: "Mother, you’ve awoken?!"

But the voice dissipates like a hallucination, as if it never appeared.

Upon receiving the hint, Ning Zhuo’s eyes shine with brilliance.

He understands!

"Luoshu is the source of mathematics, I must comprehend it to refine it."

His mind calms, first probing the Upper Dantian in the Divine Sea, where a mass of black and white dots exists.

He observes carefully, immediately discovering the flow of these black and white dots subtly resembles the trajectory of Five Elements Generating. Gold produces water, water produces wood, wood produces fire, fire produces earth, earth produces gold—each generation triggers a reorganization of the dots; each restraint causes the dots to separate.

The principle of Five Elements!

Gold Element is white, dots condense like stars, representing "four nine" among the numbers of heaven and earth.

Water Element is black, dots flow like rivers, representing "one six" among the numbers of heaven and earth.

Wood Element is green, dots grow like flora, representing "three eight" among the numbers of heaven and earth.

Fire Element is red, dots rise like flames, representing "two seven" among the numbers of heaven and earth.

Earth Element is yellow, dots are heavy like mountains, representing "five ten" among the numbers of heaven and earth.

Five Elements revolve, mathematics generate. Each dot in the Luoshu corresponds to a Five Elements attribute, each change follows the laws of Five Elements Generating and Restraining.

With this comprehension, the numerous dots transform from black and white to the five-colored Five Elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
