'There are other ways to gain spirituality!' Xiao Bai hurriedly said in order to distract Lin Yun's attention.
'Other ways? What ways?' Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.
Spirituality was too useful for him.
This information from Xiao Bai is also of great help to him.
Not to mention anything else, just the words 'place of faith' will save him a lot of trouble. Next time he looks for spirituality, he won't be completely at a loss.
'Some people's... thoughts are in line with a natural law in the world. If their spiritual power is a little stronger and they concentrate their mind on accomplishing something that conforms to the natural law of the world, it is possible to give birth to spirituality...' Xiao Bai thought for a moment and said.
'This...' Lin Yun pondered.
To be precise, he didn't quite understand what Xiaobai was saying.
'Brother, I wonder if you've heard the story of the finishing touch?' Seeing Lin Yun's puzzled expression, Xiaobai asked happily.
'The finishing touch?' Lin Yun's heart stirred, as if he had thought of something.
'The finishing touch is about a person's painting, which has reached a level that conforms to a natural law of the world, and only lacks the eye. As long as the eye is added, the painting will be born with spirituality, as if it has life,' Xiaobai said happily.
'There's another story. Once upon a time, there was a scholar who was very good at calligraphy. One day, a wealthy family asked him to write a character. He was supposed to write the character '天' (sky), but he only wrote the first stroke and stopped. Later, he was drinking in a tavern and ran out of money. He asked the shopkeeper to a piece of paper, then he went to the kitchen and grabbed a broom, dipped it in the wood ash on the stove, and drew a horizontal stroke on the paper. He told the shopkeeper to go to the wealthy household and exchange the paper for money. As a result, the wealthy household gave the shopkeeper 100 taels of gold, and the shopkeeper was very happy.' Xiaobai then told another story, his tone full of joy.
A good story is one that you want to share with others, and it will make you happy. Usually, here, only it and Xiaolan can talk to each other, and it is really lonely. It is rare to have someone who can communicate with them and is willing to listen to them tell stories, so how could it not be happy?
'You mean, the words written by that scholar can give birth to spirits?' Lin Yun said in surprise.
'Well, brother is really smart!' Xiaobai said happily.
'Haha...'
Lin Yun smiled and didn't say anything. It wasn't that he was smart, but the story was really simple. If he didn't understand it, then there was something wrong with his intelligence.
'The two stories you told are very good and vivid. I understand!' Lin Yun nodded slightly and said.
Vaguely, he remembered why some people's calligraphy and paintings were so valuable, and the price of some works even reached the sky-high price. Could it be that this was the reason why spirituality could be born?
Could some people sense the existence of spirituality?
It is not strange that some people can sense spirituality. At the beginning, Xiaobai and Xiaolan said that the spirituality in the statue of God. If a person can sense spirituality, they might ignore the two of them because of the spirituality in the statue, thus allowing them to escape a crisis.
This reveals two messages. One is that some people can sense spirituality, and the other is that the process of those people sensing spirituality is not easy. Otherwise, they would not have neglected the spirituality of Xiaobai and Xiaolan after sensing the spirituality in the statue of God.
'Not only calligraphy, but paintings can also give birth to spirituality, as can all kinds of handicrafts. The more effort the owner of the work puts into creating it, the more likely it is that the work will give birth to spirituality,' said Xiaobai.
'Hm,' Lin Yun nodded.
Previously, Xiaobai had mentioned this in his words: spirituality...is born from spiritual energy. If the owner of the work is not attentive and does not expend spiritual energy, how can a work possibly be born with spirituality?
'However, the spirituality born in this way is very weak, and if there is no spiritual energy for it to absorb for a long time, this spirituality will disappear and vanish. Only a very small number of spiritualities can absorb the weak energy in the air and transform it into spiritual energy to allow them to survive...' Xiaobai continued at this time.
'So?' Lin Yun mused.
The fact that a spirit is very weak when it is born is understandable when you think about it.
However, some spirits slowly disappear, while others can survive.
This made him think about the quality of spirits.
The Universal Trading System said that the integration of local spirits into equipment that specializes in absorbing and refining spiritual energy can increase the efficiency of the equipment by 30% to 50%. Does this mean that some high-quality spirits can increase efficiency even more?
Well, this is also an important piece of information.
'I wonder, after I learn some creative skills on the Universal Trading System, can the works I create give birth to spirituality?' Just then, Lin Yun had a sudden thought.
If the works he created could give birth to spirituality, then he would be set for life.
Especially, just like the scholar in the story the little guy just told, every word could give birth to spirituality.
He wrote thousands of words a day, tens of thousands of words, how could that be?
As far as he knew, on the Universal Trading System, the value of an ordinary, unranked spiritual essence ranged from ten spiritual crystals to tens of thousands of spiritual crystals.
If the spiritual essence born from the work he created could be promoted to the first rank, it would be worth more than a hundred spiritual crystals.
If it was promoted to the second rank, it would be worth more than a thousand spiritual crystals.
That would be a much greater gain.
However, Lin Yun only thought about this kind of idea for a moment.
In that story, a wealthy family hired the scholar to write something, but the scholar only wrote half a character and stopped. Obviously, the kind of character that can give birth to spirituality is not something that the other party can write casually.
However, this is always a way.
He has long known that some arts can cultivate one's character and even conform to some rules and principles of cultivation. Appropriately involving some of them is beneficial to many cultivation systems. He has also considered it, but has never implemented it. Learning an art is just that he has never implemented it.
Now that he thinks about it, the role of some arts is even greater than he imagined.
Perhaps he should have involved himself in them earlier.
In the civilization where Xinglan is from, Xinglan has searched everywhere, but has only obtained some first-level spirituality and has not found spirituality above the first level.
There is also very little information about spirituality on the universal trading system. Regarding the method Xiaobai mentioned, he just looked it up, and someone on the universal trading system mentioned it, but only in passing.
The general idea is that some powerful people can reach this level, but not every powerful person can do it. This is also a special kind of existence.
On Blue Star, there is even a way to give birth to spirituality in this way. And, there may well be more than one or two, not just ten or twenty, but many.
Perhaps there is also something special about the art on Blue Star.
