That green looks like copper rust, but as long as you touch it with your hand, you know it''s just a very similar coating effect.
The handle at the top of the lamp is inlaid with an emerald the size of a cat''s eye. When staring, it seems to attract people''s eyes. Renault was in a trance while checking, and he didn''t dare to stare at it immediately. At this time, he found a circle of small words written on the base of the Lantern:
"No effort before death, nothing after death."
This sentence is more ferocious than "young people don''t work hard, old people are sad".
The old man patted Renault on the shoulder, pointed to the diamond array and the futon on the side. "Come on, take two cushions and sit in the small Dharma array. The lantern is on the ground in front of you, but it should be between the circular Dharma array and the diamond Dharma array. Don''t be wrong."
Renault did. After the two people sat cross legged, Gladwell said, "this is the most important place in the iceberg fortress: the meditation door. The circular magic array on the ground is the ''door'', and the diamond array area we sit in is the ''meditation position''. When wandering souls appear in winter, through meditation here, the power of the goddess will open the ''door'' for wandering souls to pass through and reduce their harm."
"Renault, if you want to spend this winter, you need to make both physical and mental preparations. Physical training will help you. I hope you can complete it and then reach the level of bearing the enhancement ceremony. However, mental preparation is also necessary. In addition to improving your probability of passing the ceremony, it can also let you experience the state when the wandering soul appears in advance and adapt to that spirit Pressure. "
"The meditation direction of divinity points to the sky - that''s the field of the goddess. What I want to teach you is not the meditation method of divinity, but the meditation of the eagle School: take yourself as the center, expand evenly in all directions, and maintain a special attention direction."
The eagle soars in the sky and the earth sees everything in his eyes. The eagle''s eyes can not only control a large area, but also adjust the focus, zoom in and track specific prey. The meditation of the eagle school is designed inspired by this, and has the ability of global observation and focus locking. This is the basis of the whole martial arts system of the eagle school, and it is also one of the mysteries of Giles''s ability to shoot accurately from a long distance.
"This is the meditation gate. Every winter, many wandering souls are transcended here, so there will always be some wandering soul energy left. When you use eagle eye meditation, you can see these energy." Gladwell struck a match and flicked his finger, and the fire flew into the lantern. The lantern emits a faint green light, which is almost as bright as the candle, but the whole lamp becomes very hot, which is by no means comparable to the candle or oil lamp.
"Due to limited energy, no one can maintain meditation all day. Sometimes, he will bump into an invisible wandering soul wandering in the castle. It will be extremely uncomfortable, such as... Being gripped by someone''s heart and brain at the same time." the old man pointed to the lantern and said: "We will light some lanterns, like lighthouses, to attract and guide wandering souls to this meditation door and be transcended as soon as possible. However, it can also gather free wandering soul energy for you to feel in advance."
"Be sure to remember the method of meditation, especially the part of taking back your attention. Especially remember: if you can''t bear it, push the lantern into the central magic array, and the wandering soul won''t affect you."
Then, Lord Kipling dark shadow gave the eagle eye meditation to Renault completely in advance , because this kind of meditation was originally only given to formal members who had completed their apprenticeship through training and ceremony. Excluding Giles and several other Eagle pioneer hunters who went out, only instructors grawell and Kelley can meditate in the castle.
Renault recited the formula over and over again and kept the method firmly in mind, including the precautions in actual use. Grawell looked at his mouth to track the recitation, and would suddenly ask questions, listen to his answers and judge his mastery. "Because you haven''t performed the ceremony yet and your physical endurance is limited, don''t pursue the observation range of your senses. At this stage, you just feel the wandering soul around you and stare at the lantern in front of you."
"Lord shadow, how far can this meditation see at most?"
"Even without meditation, you can see the sun and stars in the sky - it''s far enough. What else do you want?"
The old man was very satisfied with his jokes and was more satisfied with Renault''s learning attitude. The skills of the eagle school are easy to learn but difficult to master. However, no matter how "easy to learn", meditation takes at least three days to master. Renault took a week and is not outstanding. However, considering that he also has to carry out physical training and has not experienced enhancement ceremony, this speed is very excellent.
To be on the safe side, the old man asked Renault to demonstrate eagle eye meditation several times in front of him. After he was confirmed to be qualified, he asked him to use a lantern to see the wandering soul. This can only be done by Renault himself. The breath of the strong - including the old man - will destroy the residual energy of the wandering soul, which will not achieve the original intention.
Renault is very excited. He is excited that he can finally see the ghost! In fact, after seeing the devil, the ghost can''t scare him. What''s left is deep curiosity. He wonders what the wandering soul will look like, what kind of feeling they often say about pressure, and whether the soul harvesting Dagger from the devil can work on the wandering soul.
Yes, if the wandering soul can fill the Treasury of hell as a soul, he will never be polite.
Sitting cross legged on the futon, not letting the slightest bit of his body leave the protection of the diamond array, he carefully lit the lantern, and then Renault went into meditation. He opened his eyes and meditated. The green flame of the lantern reflected in his brown eyes, jumping, dancing and shining together. Then the green flame suddenly stagnated.
Renault felt a trace of coolness, like someone secretly blowing a breath behind his ears, which was itchy. After shaking, he "saw" the wandering souls gathered from the rear.
Gray energy, like a thin mist, penetrates the ground and walls without hindrance, from strands to bundles, and finally forms a small mass. These energies gather near the lantern and revolve around "no effort in life, nothing after death". This is basically the weakest state of wandering ability. It''s just some remnants. It can''t even form and won''t take the initiative to attack. It can only release malice to the living creatures around it.
When a living creature receives this malice, it will begin to suffer, and the pain will accumulate over time, and then cause disease and decay until death. Bingfeng fortress does not raise any animals, and horses will be taken away before the mountain is closed by heavy snow, just to prevent them from dying of wandering souls.
