Cultivation: Fortune by Lots-Chapter 412 - 232. Connecting Heaven Keystone, Yin Yang Five Thunders Five Elements Talisman Array_2
Although Lei Jun was not certain in his heart whether the power of these two mid-grade, high-level Spirit Talismans combined would satisfy his needs, he was quite curious right now about the Spirit Talismans Lei Jun had created himself, itching to give them a try.
"Better safe than sorry, take this one too."
Lei Jun said, taking out a Spirit Banner and handing it to Chu Kun.
Chu Kun felt the strong, surging, never-ending earth-aligned Spiritual Energy within, and couldn’t help his surprise, "Senior Brother, what is this..."
Lei Jun, "This treasure is called the Breathing Soil Banner, I obtained it by chance some time ago. It has all sorts of wonderful uses.
With your current cultivation level, while you can’t fully use all its functions, you can already draw on some of its Spiritual Power for protection and concealing your presence.
This trip of yours takes you underground, so I’m lending it to you for defense."
Based on his predictions, his moderately good lot should also mean that Chu Kun could stay safe and sound.
Because Lei Jun guessed that the fourth-rank opportunity in the moderately good lot might end up with this junior disciple again.
But the unknown risks always bothered people the most, so after considering it, Lei Jun still decided to lend Chu Kun the Breathing Soil Banner for this journey.
"Thank you, Senior Brother." Chu Kun put away the Breathing Soil Banner, his expression becoming even more solemn as he thanked Lei Jun.
After saying goodbye to Lei Jun, and reporting to the Hall of Steward in the sect, Chu Kun immediately descended Dragon Tiger Mountain.
He was now also a Talisman-Instructed Disciple of the Celestial Master Mansion, clad in deep-red Taoist Robes, moving with much freedom and convenience.
However, after Taoist Master Chu left through the mountain gates, he didn’t continue on his way, but instead found a secluded spot near the entrance.
"I’ll pick Bingsi’s place today." Taoist Master Chu nodded with steady resolve.
...He had prepared many such places these last few years.
Finding a quiet spot, making sure it was shielded and hidden, no one in sight, Chu Kun raised his hand and lightly tapped his fingers to his brow.
Then he simply disappeared from this world, nowhere to be found.
......
After Chu Kun left, Lei Jun carried on with his cultivation.
He sat cross-legged, a radiant Great Seal hovering above his head.
The Great Seal looked much like the Celestial Master Seal.
But it then slowly began to transform.
As Lei Jun circulated his mana, merging his essence, energy, and spirit, between himself and the Dao Seal overhead, a tremendous Talisman Array gradually coalesced.
The array guarded the center and branched out in four directions, made of five smaller sets of runes.
Each rune manifested in one of five colors, corresponding to the Five Phases, five viscera, and five spirits.
This was the artistic conception of Lei Jun’s Lifebound Third Skill, the Dark Five-Thunder Orthodox Talisman.
Five threads of thunder intertwined above his head at this moment, but did not yet merge into the Dao Seal overhead.
Lei Jun sat cross-legged, gazing upward in quiet contemplation.
*In the Talisman Sect’s Sixth Layer Heaven Dao Seal Realm, there were no further internal sublevels.*
*From the Five-layered Heaven Dao Palace to the Sixth Layer Heaven Dao Seal, this phase was essentially a complete summary and integration of everything learned before.*
*And then, to push further to the Seventh Layer of Heaven Realm, he would need to build on that, condense even further, lay a true foundation.*
*If he succeeded in reaching Seventh Heaven, everything he had learned would merge as a whole and then be elevated and transformed again.*
*This summarizing and condensing process, the Chapter scriptures of the Taoist Heritage he cultivated, were the foundation and cornerstone.*
Lei Jun had now completed the integration and condensation.
*Then, on top of the roots and cornerstone, his three Lifebound Skills and three Arts were the main trunk, or the pillars, of his progress.*
*Everything else was branches or, as it were, the bricks and tiles.*
Lei Jun’s Lifebound First Skill, the Heavenly General Talisman, and his Lifebound Second Skill, the Wind-Thunder Talisman, were now both fully summarized and condensed, merged into the Dao Seal within.
Overall, everything went smoothly.
Now it was time for the Third Skill, the Dark Five-Thunder Orthodox Talisman.
This spell was Lei Jun’s own creation, but its condensation wasn’t any harder than the previous two skills.
*Lei Jun was at this moment pondering his future.*
*With his comprehension now at Serene Insight level, he was able to extrapolate and perceive profound truths from the subtle clues on his cultivation path.*
*Even as he remained in the Sixth Layer of Heaven Realm, some of the confusion ahead had cleared for him.*
*If he could someday break through to the Seventh Layer, the Heaven-Connecting Realm of the Talisman Sect, then he could choose to cultivate his First Divine Faculty.* 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
*At the same time, the three Lifebound Arts would also undergo a new round of sublimation and transformation.*
*As for the future of the Dark Five-Thunder Orthodox Talisman—he saw it becoming the Yin Thunder Dragon.*
Of course, it couldn’t rival the Yang Thunder Dragon, which had been hammered and refined over many years in the Celestial Master Mansion, not right away.
But after Lei Jun kept refining and improving it in the days to come, he was confident that the Yin Thunder Dragon would eventually stand equal to the Yang Thunder Dragon.
Just as the Dark Five-Thunder Orthodox Talisman now stood side by side with the Mansion’s original Five-Thunder Righteous Talisman.
*However, Lei Jun had some other ideas now.*
*He still hadn’t picked his First Divine Faculty.*
Now that the Celestial Master Seal was radiant once more, and the Thunder Law Heavenly Scripture Talismans had returned to the Mansion, if Lei Jun wished, he could select the Nine Heavens Thunder Ancestor Dharma—namely, Yang Thunder Dragon—for his first Divine Faculty when he reached the Upper Three Heavens.
*But Lei Jun was also interested in Life Skill Human Script Talismans.*
*As the saying went, biting off more than one could chew. There was no need to be greedy.*
*Yet with his comprehension risen to Serene Insight, many of the plans he’d scribbled on paper before now had a real chance of materializing.*
He looked up at the five-colored, five-phased Talisman Array above, and nodded slightly.
That array was still not being condensed into the Dao Seal.
Instead, a brand-new Talisman Array was appearing alongside the Dark Five-Thunder Orthodox Array, forming a counterpart.
As the Five Thunders and Five Phases generated each other, the wondrous Tao manifested on its own.
This was the Five-Thunder Righteous Talisman passed down by the Mansion, which could be called the Yang Five-Thunder Righteous Dharma.
This talisman wasn’t Lei Jun’s lifebound talisman, but of course he had mastered it—this was the first talisman of Dragon Tiger Mountain, known as the Celestial Master Talisman, and Lei Jun’s skill with it was considerable.
Under Lei Jun’s control, the two Talisman Arrays—similar in principles and conception, but differing greatly in detail—matched up top and bottom, reflecting each other perfectly.
