I'm raising mosquitoes using science as an ordinary person.

Chapter 32: Talisman QR Code?! [New book, please read!]

"Using blood as ink, and breath as the guide!"

Inside Blackwater Manor, Meng De stood solemnly, his hands forming a mudra, his index finger tracing his teeth, using blood as ink, chanting incantations, and amidst a sky full of crimson flames and flying mosquitoes, a blood-red fireball talisman emitting a faint bloody smell quickly took shape!

"Blood forges the foundation of magic, qi hooks the form of technique!"

The moment the crimson fireball talisman, made from his own blood essence, took shape, Meng De instantly activated the fused blood spiritual power within his body. In the blink of an eye, the crimson fireball talisman transformed into a beam of blood light, instantly shooting towards the swarm of crimson flame flying mosquitoes in the air.

The next instant, with a bang, the blood-red fireball talisman exploded into a three-dimensional blood mist containing a mysterious trajectory amidst the swarm of crimson flame mosquitoes!

The crimson fireball talisman did not explode into a fireball as traditional cultivators had known... but instead exploded directly within the swarm of insects... the spell structure of the fireball technique!

Decoding 3D data from 2D data!

The next instant, the swarm of crimson flying mosquitoes became agitated. Guided by Mengde's blood and qi, they instinctively used their flesh and blood as threads in the air to instantly construct the spell model of the fireball technique within the swarm.

Then, with a whoosh, the entire swarm of insects was instantly engulfed in a boiling sea of ​​fire!

"Indeed, the best way to control insects is always through my blood..." Looking at the sea of ​​fire above his head, a hint of memory flashed in the depths of Meng De's eyes.

Mengde tried various methods to control the insects, and spent twenty or thirty spirit stones to buy back various common spells from Bai Yunsheng. In the end, Mengde discovered that only his blood was the best way to control the insects.

During this time, Mengde also obtained the "Blood Fiend Insect Control Secret Technique" and realized that this insect control secret technique might be the choice of Qingli and others.

Using the Blood Fiend Mark to control insects is indeed very effective against the rare insects like the Source Blood Flying Mosquito, which act based on genetic instincts.

However, the Blood Fiend Mark also has a very obvious drawback: the strength of a cultivator's spiritual sense will limit the size of the insect swarm and the combat distance.

The Blood Fiend Mark condensed through the "Blood Fiend Insect Control Secret Technique" can be seen as a kind of "wireless neural controller" installed on the nerves of the Source Blood Mosquito. By connecting to the cultivator's radio waves, that is, divine sense, it can make the Source Blood Mosquito hit wherever it is pointed.

However, a cultivator's spiritual wireless network has a load limit. Once the source blood swarm exceeds the cultivator's spiritual network load limit, the swarm may escape, or it may affect the cultivator's own combat power.

On the other hand, Meng De does not have any such thing as a limit on the load of his divine consciousness network.

Because Mengde controls the swarm of insects through the aura of his own flesh and blood. As long as he is still breathing, the source blood swarm will automatically gather around him, achieving lossless aggregation of the swarm.

When Mengde needs to command the Blood Source Insect Swarm to attack a specific target, he only needs to shoot out the Blood Spirit Talisman he has just figured out, and he can use blood as a sword to make the Blood Source Insect Swarm hit wherever it points.

Meng De originally thought that cultivating talismans was a very difficult thing, but after he thoroughly understood the basic knowledge and basic concepts of talismans in "Introduction to Talismans", he suddenly realized that talismans were not difficult for someone like him.

Meng De had to promise that he didn't possess any extraordinary talent in the art of talismans. The reason he could control insects with talismans was entirely because he had seen through the core, underlying code of the art of talismans.

What is magic?

Technique is the formula, and method is the energy. By gathering energy into the formula, the energy of heaven and earth is mobilized to react, thereby generating the power to overturn clouds and rain, and move mountains and fill seas.

When Mengde first entered the immortal sect, he was actually full of incomprehension and misunderstanding about magic and other mystical things.

But it wasn't until he suddenly had an epiphany that he realized that so-called magic was nothing more than a new kind of "energy reaction," or, in more colloquial terms, "spiritual laws."

In Mengde's previous world, a set of laws called "physical laws" were followed. Humans, who stood upright in the forest, learned and applied these laws by observing them, eventually sweeping away all races and wielding supreme power capable of destroying planets with their weak bodies!

This world of cultivation, in addition to following the 'laws of physics,' also follows a more efficient and violent set of 'spiritual laws'!

So-called magic, operating within the body, uses meridians as its surface and limbs as its dimensions, thus forming multi-dimensional energy nodes that drive the great forces of nature to create various techniques with different effects. Essentially, it is no different from humanity's discovery of 'water vapor transformation' and the creation of the steam engine.

In Mengde's eyes, the talisman that condenses magic onto talisman paper is simply a kind of "data reduction" behavior!

Why is there a risk of failure when drawing talismans?

Because talismans are two-dimensional, while the bodies of cultivators are three-dimensional!

In other words, talismans are two-dimensional, while the cultivator's body is three-dimensional.

To imprint a spell structure that is permissible in a three-dimensional environment onto a two-dimensional plane is essentially to reduce the three-dimensional structure to a two-dimensional structure.

However, the two-dimensional information carried by the two-dimensional structure on the talisman must be successfully recognized by the spiritual laws of heaven and earth to successfully activate the spell on it.

In Mengde's interpretation, this process is the translation of two-dimensional information into three-dimensional information.

Although Mengde was not an expert in the field of information engineering in his previous life, as a pioneer in the field of gene science, Mengde was generally able to draw inferences from one instance to another and understood many principles.

A simple example is a QR code.

Talismans are like QR codes. Spiritual principles and laws interpret the data within talismans by scanning the QR codes, and ultimately draw upon computing power, or rather, the energy of heaven and earth, to assist in the formation of powerful spells.

In theory, if Mengde could create a decoder-like magical artifact specifically for decoding, then all the talismans he created afterward could be QR code patterns...

Of course, Mengde doesn't have that ability right now; he's just making breakthroughs in related fields based on his understanding of the underlying code of talismans. For example, due to material issues, magical runes must face a "wire overlap" problem, meaning that the magical power transmission paths will overlap, and the overlapping parts can easily cause a short circuit in magical power, resulting in the failure of talisman creation.

Therefore, after realizing this problem, Mengde tried to solve the problem of short circuit in the talisman's magic power by using other materials or by adding additional "resistive materials".

After Mengde successfully resolved the problem of the talisman's short circuit, he suddenly discovered that drawing talismans was no longer a difficult task for him.

Now, apart from his relatively slow drawing speed, Mengde's success rate in making talismans has exceeded 99%!

"Indeed, knowledge is power." Meng De looked at the swarm of crimson flame insects dancing in the sea of ​​fire in mid-air, and then glanced at the various finished talismans on the table in front of him, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Now, he has found another way to earn spirit stones.
