Chapter 145: Patterned Talisman Made

Within the palace hall, Shen Ping waited for less than five minutes. Pei Huoyu and Perfected Yun Ya walked over. He quickly went forward and bowed.

...

“Talisman Master Shen. Before that, do you have an inheritance in the Dao of Talismans?” Perfected Yun Ya asked.

Shen Ping shook his head.

“Have you studied Talisman Scripture?”

“Never.”

Perfected Yun Ya pondered and waved his hand. Spiritual light flickered at his waist and a jade scroll floated in front of Shen Ping.

“This is the ‘Basic Talisman Scripture’. It records in detail 12 types of special spirit runes and the simple combinations that these spirit runes can derive. It’s very suitable for you to study now. You don’t have to cultivate the ‘Talisman Beast Scripture’ given by the headquarters for the time being. Cultivate the basics of this jade scroll seriously first. If you have any doubts, you can come to this spiritual peak once every half a month.”

Shen Ping took the jade scroll. “Thankyou, Senior Yun Ya!” He left the spirit vein cave abode.

The sky has darkened. Only the stars in the night sky had a faint starlight. He stepped onto the cloud boat. The mystic instrument flashed and quickly sped towards Qingyang City. Shen Ping said, “Senior Pei, this jade scroll should be very precious, right?”

“Inheritance was the most important thing in the art of skills.” Pei Huoyu said softly, “To ordinary Talisman Masters, be it the headquarters’ ‘Talisman Beast Scripture’ or the ‘Basic Talisman Scripture’ that Perfected Yun Ya gave you, they are as important as inherited treasures. However, you are a core member. You can buy these directly from the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion.”

Shen Ping was stunned. “I can buy it?”

“Fifteen years later. The headquarters will nurture all the new core members and re-evaluate the core level. At that time, you will be able to see special items in the treasure vault. Including restricted levels.”

Hearing Pei Huoyu’s words, Shen Ping immediately came to a realization. No wonder he couldn’t find any cultivation records related to special spirit patterns and talisman scriptures after searching previously.

When he was about to return to Qingyang City, Pei Huoyu suddenly brought up the matter of the blood of the strange beast.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, after you conserve your energy, don’t forget to go to the small courtyard of the Perfected next door. Last time, your wine tasting could cause the blood of the strange beast to fluctuate. If you do it again and cause the blood in your body to boil, this situation will be very special.”

Shen Ping subconsciously asked, “How is it special?”

“I’m not sure. I know too little about the blood of strange beasts. However, there’s one thing I’m sure of. You’re a cultivator with deep luck.” An indescribable smile appeared on Pei Huoyu’s lips.

Shen Ping noticed this expression. His heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Perfected Pei wanted to help? He returned to the small courtyard in Tongquan Alley. He watched as Pei Huoyu entered the quiet room.

Shen Ping stopped. Then, he eagerly went to the talisman making room and opened the jade scroll.

Previously, thanks to the Life Divine Talisman, he could understand the strange beast patterns of the Talisman Beast Scripture and could easily understand the combination law of 200 special spirit patterns.

However, the production of patterned talismans had always failed. The main reason was that he did not understand how the special spiritual runes that formed the strange beast patterned talismans outlined many changes on the talisman paper.

At that time, Shen Ping understood what his problem was. He had improved too quickly.

In a short 11 years of time, he’d surpassed the precipitation of other Talisman Masters that had cultivated for over 100 years. Even though he relied on his experience and comprehension in the Dao of Talismans, and his grasp of the Dao of Talismans wasn’t weak, his ability to understand and other aspects related to the Dao of Talismans was slightly weak.

These things were accumulated over time. Even if he cultivated it, it would be very difficult to master it in a short period of time. After all, his Talisman Dao talent was very ordinary! After cultivating in Cloud Mountain Parlour for more than 20 years, he was only a low-level Talisman Master.

If not for the experience in the Dao of Talismans obtained from dual cultivation, his limit was very likely to be a Level One mid-grade Talisman Master.

Shen Ping knew very well. He was not a genius in the Dao of Talismans at all. All his strength and status now came from his wife and concubines, and it came from every Dao Companion who cultivated dual cultivation.

He suppressed his emotions. He focused his mind and looked at the Basics of Talisman Scripture on the jade scroll.

Time passed quietly. In the blink of an eye, twenty days passed.

Shen Ping had been staying in the talisman making room. Usually, other than meditating, cultivating, and breaking through bottlenecks, he was also making talismans. He was rarely as immersed as he was now.

“As expected of a senior who’s close to a grandmaster!” He put away the jade scroll. He was rather emotional.

The Basic Talisman Scripture recorded 12 special spirit runes. Just one of them was profound and difficult to understand. However, Perfected Yun Ya had written his annotations in the jade scroll, including the problem he encountered when he cultivated spirit runes and how he resolved it in the end.

It was very detailed. After reading this, even an ordinary Talisman Master could easily understand what twelve special spirit patterns were.

Shen Ping was originally worried that he could not understand. Now, his worries are all gone.

Phew.

Ha.

He calmed down, the spirit platform was empty. He picked up the talisman brush and looked at the talisman paper before closing his eyes.

The first volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture only involved three types of special spirit runes, but these three types had evolved into 200 types. After a complicated combination, they formed the strange beast patterns on the scripture.

The most difficult thing to study and cultivate the 12 special spirit runes was to understand the complexity of their changes and combinations. On the contrary, this was not difficult for Shen Ping. He could even understand the more complicated Green Talisman Sutra. The only thing he didn’t understand was the special type of spirit runes.

As his thoughts surged, Shen Ping opened his eyes again. He calmed his mind and prayed. After doing this process, the talisman brush landed on the talisman paper. This time, he no longer had the 200 types of spirit runes involved in the scripture in his mind.

There were only three special spirit runes.

Soon, spirit runes appeared on the paper. The talisman brush was drawn naturally. When the last stroke was placed, a strange beast pattern had already appeared on the talisman.

It was done! Shen Ping smiled knowingly. After spending so much time, he finally succeeded in cultivating the introductory volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture.

Psst.

The talisman burned. It was as if it could not withstand the strange spiritual energy of the strange beast pattern talisman.

Shen Ping waved his sleeve. He put away all the scrapped materials. The moment he walked out of the talisman making room, Shen Ping felt unprecedentedly relaxed.

Pei Huoyu had once said that as long as he could successfully cultivate the initial volume, he would definitely be able to pass the headquarters evaluation fifteen years later. It had not even been a year since he returned from the headquarters assessment.

Late at night, he looked at his concubines sleeping on the bed. Shen Ping walked out of the hall. Bai Yuying had stepped into the fifth level of Qi Refinement a few days ago. Luo Qing continuously consumed spirit wine, and the bloodline and physique in her body gradually fused into one. In time, she would be able to absorb spirit qi to cultivate.

However, they still needed time to build their foundation. Even with the help of spirit liquid, spirit pool, medicinal pills, and other resources, his concubines could not cross several realms in a row.

Qi Refinement Level.

The more solid the spiritual energy foundation was, the higher the chance of success.

In the small courtyard, Pei Huoyu was waiting. A smile appeared on her valiant face. “Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m impressed that you can hold back your pleasure these days.”

Shen Ping cupped his hands and said, “I’ve really benefited greatly from the jade scroll that Senior Yun Ya gave me. I have to thank Senior Pei for this.”

Pei Huoyu nodded. “It’s good as long as you can gain something.” As she spoke, her words changed. “Fellow Daoist Shen, I wonder if you’ve recuperated?”

Actually, when Shen Ping saw Pei Huoyu, he had already guessed what she meant. “I’ve recovered.”

The two of them stopped talking. They arrived at the small courtyard next door one after another. The courtyard shrouded in gray spiritual mist was illuminated by crystal lights. He had just stepped through the courtyard door when Perfected Qiu had already come forward. There was a smile on her charming face.

After waiting for so many days, Guest Elder Shen finally came again. The moment he walked into the bedroom, Perfected Qiu’s long dress slid down. The single gauzy garment covered the curvy outline. Her red lips parted slightly. “That day, I understood Guest Elder Shen’s gaze.”

“It’s still there?” Shen Ping was a little surprised.

“Of course. The things given by Guest Elder Shen are extremely precious. Moreover, 1 said that 1 would bring it to host the grand auction.” As Perfected Qiu spoke, she gracefully sat down on a chair. Then, she picked up the jade pot and poured the spirit wine. The wine that was filled with a sweet fragrance dripped down, and she said with a meaningful smile, “But it’s gone now.”

Shen Ping looked at the chair and could not suppress it. The more he tasted the spirit wine, the more flavorful it became. Especially after years of accumulation, it had a different charm. He took a step. He sank his waist.

However, just as he stepped over the edge, the strange beast blood in his body boiled again. His blood burned again. But this time, Shen Ping endured the numbness in the back of his head and felt the difference. At the last moment, his tenacious willpower suppressed his blood and he suddenly took a few steps back.

As the spirit platform emptied, looking at Perfected Qiu’s gracefulness, Shen Ping gave her an apologetic look and immediately sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and absorbed the strange energy surging in the strange beast’s blood.

Perfected Qiu didn’t say anything. She watched quietly as Shen Ping entered a cultivation state. An hour later, seeing that Shen Ping had ended, she smiled and said, “Guest Elder Shen, if you can’t predict the enemy’s first move during the battle, it’s better to attack later..”
