C170 Basic Talisman Crafting
Talisman papers are usually covered with a thin layer of jade rubber with various kinds of Demon Beast skins as the base. Then, it was suppressed by a special technique. Although the talisman papers were sold by the various trading companies, the price varied. But the materials used, the quality of the production, and other aspects had a lot of knowledge.
The soft and tough animal skin was good, and the longer the yearly rings of the Jade Oak Tree, the better the rubber produced. These two factors determined the quality of the talisman paper. This was especially true for some high level Talisman. Ordinary Demon Beast skins and rubber could not bear it. During the process of production, it would collapse and be damaged.
The talisman brush was somewhat similar to the soft brush on Earth, because most of the Talisman were only the size of a palm. The lines on it were complicated and slender, so the requirements for the talisman brush used to draw these lines were very high. Especially the tip of the brush. It had to be delicate, flexible, and also have a suction force. Usually, it was made of some special High-level Demon Beast fur.
The talisman brush was also sold in the trading company. Its price was usually very high, especially the famous brush made by famous people. It could be passed down to the world, and its price was ridiculously high. For example, the talisman brush Han Li gave Yun Fei was made by famous people, and it had been passed down for hundreds of years.
The paint used by the Talisman was even more complicated. Different Talisman had different requirements for the paint. However, most of them were made from the blood of various kinds of Demon Beast. The juice of special trees, herbs, and fruits were mixed in different proportions. After thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, the Talisman Masters had studied the paint formula and found that there were tens of thousands of different kinds of paint formulas. Yun Fei did not find it difficult to remember these formulas and their uses.
The same Talisman used different formulas and pigments, and the power and effect were different. This was also the reason why it was difficult to master the Talisman, but there were only a few dozen of them that were commonly used. These were also the results of continuous experimentation by the predecessors.
Yun Fei did not start making Talisman immediately. Instead, he categorized the lines used by a large number of Talisman into categories and memorized them in his heart.
Then, he went to the Yongxing Trading Company to buy a large number of low-end talisman papers and pigments. He repeatedly drew on them, familiarizing himself with the characteristics of the talisman pen in his hand and grasping the technique of moving the brush on the talisman paper.
At the same time, he explored the effects of the Divine Sense when he drew the Talisman. He constantly increased the speed and accuracy of drawing, ensuring that every line was incomparably precise and in one go.
Especially when it was different from the array lines, he focused on practicing. The carving speed went from slow to fast, and the consumption of talisman paper and color became greater and greater. It made the Yong Xing Trading Company mistakenly think that the Zhong Family was going to set foot in the Talisman business.
Using tens of thousands of talisman paper to draw every day also let Shui Qingyan see the other side of Yun Fei. A Yun Fei who was immersed in one thing and focused on one thing seriously. It was said that when a man was serious and focused, he was the most handsome. Shui Qingyan quietly watched Yun Fei draw crazily by the side. Her heart was happy, calm, and sweet.
Niu Ben and Yuhao knew that Yun Fei had entered the "crazy" mode again and did not come over to disturb him. Zhong Ying had secretly come a few times and watched Shui Qingyan for a while. Then she went to play with the Little Bifang.
On the fifth day, Yun Fei finally started to make the Talisman. At the beginning, he made the simplest heavy punch Talisman that was ignited with true qi. The power could reach the peak of a martial master. As for the energy sealed within the Talisman, it was to Yun Fei, who was now at the Martial Ancestor. Even if you make thousands of them, you won't be able to use up all the true essence in your body.
While Han Li was still in shock, Yun Fei, who had been practicing for a whole day... The speed at which he made this Talisman was already close to his own, and this was only a beginner who had just started practicing Talisman for five days. But this was still thanks to Yun Fei's powerful Divine Soul Power.
When he comprehended the Dao on the battlefield, Yun Fei's Divine Soul Body had already reached major completion. The strength of his divine soul was even greater than Han Li's.
After getting familiar with the Heavy Fist Talisman, Yun Fei had once again created a Talisman with even greater power that could emit sword light. Of course, it was much weaker than the ones used in the battle in Three Gorges Pass.
During the process of making the ___, Yun Fei discovered that the core of the formation was the energy storage and activation method. It was also the fundamental difference between the levels of formation masters. The greater the amount of energy stored, the more complicated and detailed the lines formed. The more difficult it was to draw, and when drawing this part of the line, it could not be interrupted. It had to be done in one go, or else there would be leakage. When the energy was filled, the talisman paper would instantly shatter.
During this period of time, the Woo Family sent people to redeem Woo Yuanshen. Niu Ben had extorted eighty million gold coins and a hundred thousand spirit stones from them. The Woo Family was one of the four big families of the Great Tang. It was a big family and controlled almost half of the Spirit Stone Mine Arena in the Great Tang. In order to not lose face, they didn't even pay the price. They paid the money with one hand and took the man with the other.
Besides the Profound Heaven Sect and Martial Emperor Han Li, the attitude of the Yih Family was of utmost importance for the Woo Family to hand over the money so quickly.
The incident of Yun Fei's assassination had infuriated the Yih Family.
This was especially true for Yih Qingchen, who openly pointed out that Woo Yuanshen had sent someone to assassinate Yun Fei in the battlefield. It was no less than Zhao Tong betraying the enemy and revealing secrets. It almost caused the hundred "special forces" to fall into a tight encirclement, almost turning that shocking victory into a complete defeat.
If not for the fact that Woo Yuanshen was a direct descendant of the Woo Family, he would have been beheaded by the Emperor of the Great Tang, who was similarly furious.
In addition, after Zhong Weifeng had reclaimed the lost land, he had also returned to Tiger Hill City after making proper arrangements. Hu Lang and Ni Hongyun also left to pay their respects to the seniors and family members of the original sect and returned to the Profound Heaven Sect with him. Niu Ben brought the ten million gold coins that Yun Fei gave him back to his hometown. Yun Fei just asked him to come back within a month. When the time came, they still had to return to the Profound Heaven Sect together.
Yun Fei gradually adjusted his condition and cultivation rhythm. He practiced making Talisman, cultivating Tendon Changing Scripture, and comprehending Limitless Chaos Spell. With his family accompanying him, especially Shui Qingyan by his side, his life was full, warm, happy and happy.
Shui Qingyan's Martial Ancestor cultivation also made Yun Fei sigh with admiration. Could it be that she was also like Yuhao? It was a "special physique." Although his cultivation speed was faster, it was mainly because he had many fortuitous encounters. Otherwise, just by cultivating normally, even if he was at the Great Martial Master stage, it would still take him several years to break through to the Martial Ancestor. Furthermore, Shui Qingyan did not see how she cultivated. How could she have such cultivation speed?
Shui Qingyan was unable to explain the reason behind this either. She said that she did not like to cultivate since she was young. Grandfather doted on her very much and never forced her. Later on, when she grew older, she gradually became obsessed with poetry, poetry, chess, painting. Even though he didn't spend much time cultivating, his cultivation level increased rapidly.
"Yun Fei, do you know? I have broken through to the Martial Ancestor because of you." Shui Qingyan said to Yun Fei.
"Because of me? I wasn't by your side at that time." Yun Fei was very surprised.
"Hmph, I was upset when I didn't have any news about you at that time. I didn't have the mood to play the piano, nor was I interested in studying poems and poems. So, I asked my grandfather to lock me up in the cultivation room for a month. I thought that there would be news of you in a month. He regretted it after he went into seclusion. He was too bored, so he could only force himself to continue cultivating. After advancing to the Great Martial Master Peak, he ate the Golden Yuan Pill and continued cultivating. After that, he would advance to the Martial Ancestor. Shui Qingyan looked at Yun Fei with a strange expression.
