Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 116 What is the use of divine power?
The witch took the paper figurine, looked at it for a moment, frowned and asked, "Where did you get this paper figurine?"

Shang Lu explained the origin of the paper man: "Wu Zhu still remembers the previous case of the funeral home, right? This paper man was seized from the corpse driver who killed a family in the funeral home."

"So it was made by a corpse-driver. No wonder he uses such unconventional methods."

The witch snorted coldly, with disdain in his tone.

She chanted a spell and lightly scratched the paper figure with her long fingernails.

The paper figure stained with the corpse driver's blood reacted instantly: thin dark red and black lines emerged, like meridians and blood vessels, spreading from the paper figure's chest to its limbs and body.

Its current appearance is even more bizarre and strange than before.

"What are these?" Shang Lu took a closer look and also frowned.

It was only because he saw these dark red and black thin lines, which looked very similar to human blood.

No, it doesn't look very similar to human blood, it should be painted with human blood.

"These are the blood vessels that the corpse-carrier drew on the paper figurine."

The witch used this paper man to teach Shang Lu a lesson.

"People like corpse drivers and wire-connectors don't learn the right skills. Many of their methods may seem strange and bizarre, but they are limited in power and different from the usual methods."

Shang Lu nodded slightly.

Indeed, compared with the paper figures refined by Qiu Haishan, they are much stronger and more intelligent than the paper figures made by the corpse driver.

If Shang Lu and his friends had encountered the paper figurines released by Qiu Haishan when the city was in chaos, the seventh day would have passed by now, and with luck, he would have consummated his marriage with Sanniang...

However, even though the corpse driver's paper figurine is weak in power, it can still play a big role if used at the right time and in the right way.

The most important thing is that Shang Lu wants to learn some methods of using paper figures from the witch.

In case he could seize other things in the future, such as shadow puppets, puppets, etc., he could draw inferences from other things and figure out how to use these things by using paper figures, so he wouldn't be at a loss.

"Look at these blood vessels. They are drawn with a special kind of human ink made by the corpse driver using human blood, corpse oil and other materials. At the same time, these blood vessels are also the key runes of this paper man..."

The witch pointed at the paper figurine and gave Shang Lu a detailed explanation:
"So, if you want to destroy the paper man, you have to find the center of these blood vessels and destroy them with blood. Otherwise, even if the paper man is damaged, it will recover quickly and it may not affect its combat effectiveness at all..."

Shang Lu nodded again. He had already experienced this in his previous battle with the paper man.

He first explained how to break the paper figurine, and then the shaman explained how to use it: "You have not learned how to make and use paper figurines. If you want to use it, there are only two ways."

Shang Lu sat up straight in a hurry, and said with a folded hand: "Please give me some advice, witch."

The witch doctor didn't keep anyone in suspense: "The first method is to put the paper man in a bowl of rice, change the rice every day, and offer it incense and candles. After forty-nine days, you can try to inject blood and energy into the paper man's blood vessels to nourish it until you establish a connection with it. This will declare success and you can use it for your own purposes.

But this method has a big flaw.

Because the paper figures made by the corpse-carrying craftsman are made with human ink and spells, and are made by evil methods. They are easy to attract evil spirits, and if you offer incense and candles, you may get into danger if you are not careful. "

Shanglu was not very afraid of attracting evil spirits.

Even if he really got into trouble with evil spirits, he could capture and kill those who were not strong enough. It just so happened that he was about to be promoted to county lieutenant, and as a new official, he could make a breakthrough in performance.

Moreover, during this period of time, many witch officials came to Luoshui County due to the exploration and development of the secret realm of Yunhua Mountain.

Ordinary evil spirits dare not show their heads, and will be killed in seconds if they do!
As for the powerful evil spirits, they will try to attack the secret realms and will not be interested in a paper figure.

Shang Lu memorized the first method the witch taught him and asked, "What is the second method?"

"You can't use the second method for now."

Although the witch said this, he still told Shang Lu the method.

"If you are strong enough, you can skip the stage of raising a paper man and directly inject Qi into the paper man's blood vessels, forcibly establishing a connection with it, making it a continuation of your eyes, ears, hands and feet."

Shang Lu's heart moved.

His strength might be a little lacking, but he has stolen divine power in his body!
If divine power is infused into the paper man's blood vessels, I wonder if I can skip the stage of raising the paper man and use him directly?

Shang Lu plans to give it a try when he returns.

If it works, not only can we save a lot of trouble, but we can also find a way to use the divine power.

Next, the witch taught Shanglu some methods of using paper figures.

However, Shang Lu still needs to explore and summarize more experience on his own after successfully controlling the paper man.

Because the witch was good at spells like asking ghosts about their whereabouts, although she had some knowledge of paper figurines and puppets, she was not good at them.

Even so, Shang Lu felt that he had benefited a lot. He thanked the witch solemnly and decided to make up for the thank-you gift later.

It is also for the purpose of learning knowledge from the witch in the future.

However, Shang Lu did not have too much spiritual liquid and spiritual fat, so he could not be as generous as Feng Boyuan.

He did have some dragon livers and dragon meat, but those things were not convenient to give away as gifts. Once he gave them away, he would be targeted by the witch officials of the Discipline Department.

After much thought, I can only give some gold, silver and cloth as a gift, hoping that the witch will not despise it.

After bidding farewell to the witch and leaving the witch temple, Shang Lu went straight home.

"I'm back."

Pushing open the gate, Shang Lu greeted with a smile.

The originally dark yard suddenly became bright because of his return.

The lush branches and leaves that covered the entire courtyard, like a roof, began to move at this moment, adjusting the distance between each other, allowing the sunlight to shine into the yard through the gaps.

After Shang Lu stepped over the threshold and entered the yard, the gate behind him closed automatically.

Shang Lu has become accustomed to these things.

"The investigation is over. The witch officer of the Discipline Department found nothing. Instead, I got some benefits and activated my mind..."

Shang Lu happily shared today's surprise with Sanniang.

Then he saw Sanniang took out a pair of candles and three incense sticks.

"I almost forgot that the incense and candles for the statue of the heart have not been offered yet."

Shang Lu slapped his forehead, took the incense and candle from the careful Sanniang's hand, and swallowed it quickly.

These days, Shanglu has eaten more incense and candles, and has also summed up some experience.

Eating incense and candles is like taking medicine, you have to take it quickly.

You have to swallow it as quickly as possible. Don't think about tasting it. You have to eat it when it's least prepared. This way you won't find it unpalatable or difficult to swallow.

After taking the incense and candles, Shang Lu used his inner vision to check the condition of his internal organs.

A pair of candles and three incense sticks appeared before the statue of the mind.

The rising aroma of incense drifted into the statue of the mind, making it more lively and vibrant.

However, Shang Lu has not yet discovered the other benefits brought about by activating his mind.

But he wasn't in a hurry either.

With the experience of spleen and liver gods, Shang Lu knew that the role and benefits of the mind god would manifest themselves at the right time.

After finishing the inner vision method, Shang Lu chatted with Sanniang for a while, telling her about his experiences on this trip, and then took out the paper mannequin.

Without the witch's magic, the paper man returned to his original appearance.

Those strange, hideous blood vessels all disappeared.

Shang Lu had no way to make his blood vessels visible, but he had another way. He immediately offered a stream of blood to the liver god. Afterwards, he felt his eyes cool and very comfortable.

Looking at the paper man again, those "disappeared" blood vessels reappear.

These blood vessels are drawn with human ink mixed with human blood, corpse oil and other things.

Although the corpse driver used some tricks to make them hide.

However, with the blessing of the Liver God, Shanglu still saw their traces, they were a little blurry and not clear enough, but they were enough.

Shang Lu took the paper man in his hand and activated the divine power stored in the statue of the liver god, allowing it to drill out from the Shangyang and Zhongchong acupoints on his hand and into the paper man.

Then I saw a burst of brilliant light bursting out from the paper man.

"There's a show!"

Shang Lu was overjoyed, and hurriedly followed the method taught by the witch, allowing the divine power to spread from the center of the paper man along the blood vessels to the limbs of the body.

As the bright light dimmed, Shang Lu successfully covered the entire body of the paper man with his divine power.

At this moment, he felt that he had entered a very mysterious and strange state...
