Chapter 12 Making Talisman

Xiao Yu had been running for more than fifty miles before he found a small hidden cave, got into it, and sat cross-legged to meditate to restore his magic power.

Although the previous fighting was not long, the mana consumption was still quite large. It was not until night that the mana was fully restored.

"It seems that we have to find an opportunity to refine the Spiritual Recovery Pill. Otherwise, it will take several hours to fully recover every time the mana is consumed. The combat effectiveness will not be guaranteed, and even at critical moments, your life will not be guaranteed!"

Xiao Yu thought silently in his heart.

Immediately after, he took out the storage bag of the black-bearded man from his arms, input mana and poured it on the ground. A white light flashed, and a pile of items appeared on the ground. After Xiao Yu stepped forward to pick and choose, he couldn't help but

Cursed, "I'm so poor!"

Among this pile of items, the only valuable items were more than thirty spiritual stones, and the rest were all miscellaneous items. There were no magic weapons, spiritual talismans, elixirs, etc.

"Oh, in this fight, I threw two Fire Cloud Talismans, which are worth ninety spirit stones, but I only got this little, which is a waste of sixty spirit stones! What a huge loss, it's not like people often say that murder and arson are gold

I have a belt, but I killed someone else but got nothing." Xiao Yu felt a little depressed.

But he didn't know that most of the casual cultivators were poor. The black-bearded man was doing relatively well, but his talismans and magic weapons were all damaged in the previous fighting. As for elixirs and other

Things, not to mention, this person came out to rob because he was too poor to open the pot.

In this world, probably only Xiao Yu and Han Li can obtain a large amount of resources by simply cultivating a few strains of elixir.

Other cultivators who have not worked hard all their lives, competing with heaven and man, often have to risk their lives in order to go further on the road to cultivating immortals!

Xiao Yu rested in the cave for the night, and early the next morning, he flew towards the sect with his flying sword. He originally planned to go home and have a look, but after this incident, he was not in the mood anymore.

Two days later, Xiao Yu successfully returned to the sect, handed back his exit token, hurried back to the medicine garden and fell asleep.

After waking up full of energy, Xiao Yu plunged into his great business of making talismans.

Making talismans is a relatively simple craft among the various arts of cultivating immortals. Basically, most immortal cultivators have tried making talismans. However, it is limited by talent and the input and output are not proportional, so many people do not persist.

Even among the great sects of cultivating immortals, there are not many people who can truly succeed in their studies and become masters of talisman making.

For Xiao Yu, making talismans can be the most direct way to strengthen his strength, because he can use improved versions of spells to make talismans, and the power of such talismans should also be greatly increased. And using such talismans to fight is undoubtedly

It will add a lot of combat power to yourself.

At the same time, this is also the best way to earn spiritual stones. Although he can ripen the elixir through purple gourd, selling the elixir is too risky and it is easy for others to miss him.

But if you are selling talismans, it is much safer. Even if you sell more, others will only think that you are talented in making talismans and can refine a large number of talismans. In this case, most people will choose to befriend you. I hope

You can bring him the convenience of talismans.

If it wasn't for huge interests involved, few people would have evil thoughts about the Talisman Maker.

The most important thing is that he can ripen the seven-star grass to make blank talisman paper, and the cost of raw materials is negligible. And the seven-star grass only needs to be ripened for more than ten or twenty years, which for him is simply as much as he needs.

How many.

The talisman pen has also been bought, and the cinnabar is also very cheap. I believe that with his investment regardless of the cost, he will soon be able to make the talisman.

Then, Xiao Yu took out the jade slip that recorded the "Encyclopedia of Making Basic Talismans" and studied it carefully.

There are many types of talismans, including offensive, defensive, auxiliary, and some special-purpose ones, with various abilities and varying degrees of power.

However, what can be mastered during the Qi training period are relatively simple talismans, and the highest level will not exceed the basic level.

Because to make talismans, you must first be able to cast the corresponding spells, and during the Qi training period you can only master primary spells.

Xiao Yu has already considered this aspect. He plans to only draw three kinds of talismans: fireball talisman, fire snake talisman and fire cloud talisman for the time being. He has already learned the fireball and fire snake techniques, and the fire snake technique is an improved version.

As for the basic and advanced spell Fire Cloud Technique, he will intensify his study in the next two years. I believe he can master it in two years.

To successfully draw a talisman, you need sufficient tools: talisman paper, talisman pens, cinnabar containing spiritual energy, spiritual ink or monster blood, etc.

The talisman paper is a carrying tool, and the cinnabar and talisman pen are used to reveal the talisman patterns. The cinnabar is required to have aura because, similar to mana, aura is the direct driving force for the talisman to exert its power.

These are all made of special materials. For example, talisman paper can be made of seven-star grass, cinnabar can be made from the blood of monsters, and talisman pens can be made of monster hair...

Of course, different qualities of talisman-making tools also have different effects on the success rate and quality of talisman drawing.

Containing cinnabar with little spiritual power and poor quality talisman paper, the power of the talismans produced will be less powerful and the success rate will not be high.

The talisman pen is also an important factor that affects the success rate. A good talisman pen can transmit spiritual power very well, making the person who makes the talisman handy.

I heard that some talismans are made of various extremely precious and genius treasures, which can greatly increase the power of the talismans.

Although the threshold for making talismans is low, it still requires a lot of resources to achieve success.

Take the talisman paper as an example. Just for the low-grade talisman paper, a dozen of them would require a spiritual stone.

Generally, it is extremely normal for novices to fail hundreds of times in a row when making talismans. Some even with poor qualifications will fail thousands of times in a row! It is not impossible for people without any understanding to fail tens of thousands of times.

This is just the beginning, and it’s the same kind of talisman! If you want to maintain a certain success rate in the future, you still need to experience a lot of failures and gain experience little by little... If you change to another talisman, the success rate will not be much higher than that of a novice.

Go through a similar process!

The overall improvement of the talisman-making technique requires the drawing and accumulation of talismans one by one... Each type of talisman requires massive resources. In this way, the combined consumption of multiple talismans is quite terrifying, so

It is not easy to train a master of talisman making.

Not to mention the Immortal Cultivation Families, even the big sects would not be so extravagant. This is why in the Immortal Cultivation World, there are many people who learn how to make talismans, but there are very few people who are truly proficient in it.

Due to limited resources, most of the so-called "talisman masters" in the world of cultivating immortals specialize in one kind of talisman for their whole life. A master like Dingtian only knows two or three kinds of talismans.

Since talismans are not necessary for daily practice, most immortal cultivators do not waste resources on them and only buy them when needed.

In the Yue Kingdom, only the seven major sects and a few top family forces can train talisman masters according to the types of talismans.

Although Xiao Yu can ripen the seven-star grass to make talisman paper, he will not practice with talisman paper right away. He plans to use ordinary paper, ordinary ink and ordinary pen to practice the runes, strokes, etc. of the talisman first, and then use it after he is proficient.

Talisman pen and paper painting.

After thinking about it, Xiao Yu started practicing with the simplest Fireball Talisman.

After memorizing the fireball talisman pattern, he picked up a writing brush and practiced on white paper with ordinary ink...

Drawing with ordinary paper, ordinary ink, and ordinary pens can only draw the general shape without any reaction. Although success cannot be determined and failure cannot be determined, it can increase the muscle memory of drawing runes. When the time comes, use real

When drawing with the talisman pen and talisman paper, you can draw some runes like a conditioned reflex.

This kind of practice is an extremely boring process, but practice is inherently monotonous. Xiao Yu has already adapted to this boring process and can naturally bear it.

In the process of practicing the shape of the talisman, Xiao Yu is also constantly ripening the seven-star grass and making talisman paper.

The production of talisman paper is also a huge project. Various main and auxiliary materials including seven-star grass need to be soaked, steamed, cleaned, impurities removed, dried and other operations before the talisman paper can finally be made.

After two months, Xiao Yu finally produced a large number of talisman papers. Together with the one hundred dozen he purchased before, he believed that he could support himself in drawing for a while.

During these two months, in addition to making talisman paper, he also practiced talisman patterns quite effectively. He was able to draw the talisman of the fire ball talisman and the fire snake talisman as he pleased.

On this day, Xiao Yu held a green talisman pen, put cinnabar on the banana, and began to draw the fireball talisman on a blank piece of talisman paper.

According to the feeling he had when practicing with the ordinary pen before, every stroke of the pen was like a divine help, extremely smooth, stroke by stroke, the strength and thickness of each stroke were just right...

Unfortunately, after replacing the real talisman pen and talisman paper this time, there was another problem with the control of the spiritual power. The spiritual power was either running too fast or too slow, and the output of the spiritual power was also difficult to control.

When he drew the first picture, he had only finished less than half of it, and something happened naturally, which made him very embarrassed.

Halfway through the second drawing, "poof"

The third time, some progress...

For the one hundred and fiftieth time, Xiao Yu looked at this fireball charm that was completely similar to the one he bought, but without any spiritual power. It seemed that he had failed again...

Two hundred, three hundred times,…

Finally, after more than five hundred times, as the last stroke was drawn, the entire talisman paper flashed with inspiration, and then quickly converged. Xiao Yu picked it up and observed it for a moment. He saw that the aura and runes on the talisman were similar to the fireball he bought before.

The symbols are exactly the same.

Immediately, he input mana into it and threw it to the open space on one side. As soon as the "Puff" fireball talisman left his hand, it turned into a fireball and shot towards the ground somewhere.

Looking at the small holes in the ground that were blown up, Xiao Yu grinned, "Haha, it worked!"

After carefully recalling the details of this success, Xiao Yu spread out a piece of talisman paper and wrote...

After one success, the number of subsequent successes gradually increased. When Xiao Yu finished drawing and bought the one hundred dozen blank talisman papers, he had successfully drawn 30 fireball talismans, and overall he was still losing money.

.

However, he didn't care and continued to draw on the blank rune paper he made.
Chapter completed!
