Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 66: Formidable Talismanic Spirit Body
Back in his courtyard, Chu Ning couldn’t wait to start taking items out of his storage bag.
The harvest today was truly plentiful.
Middle Grade Talisman Brush, Basic Talisman Making Fundamentals, Upper Grade Talisman, Cangmu Sword Technique...
Chu Ning looked at this pile of treasures on the table, satisfied after taking them all in.
After some thought, he put everything away, leaving only the jade scroll of Basic Talisman Making Fundamentals.
The Cangmu Sword Technique could wait until he moved to the Outer Sect to attempt.
For now, it’s more important to focus on this basics of talisman making to enhance his talisman-making skills.
After all, obtaining so many benefits today was honestly thanks to showcasing his decent talent in talisman making.
The content of the jade scroll on Basic Talisman Making Fundamentals was extremely detailed, and Chu Ning found himself unable to put it down after one look.
Previously, when making the Wood Escape Talisman, he mainly relied on intuition and his Talismanic Spirit Body talent.
He was actually not very familiar with some of the basic knowledge and principles of talisman making.
For example, even the most basic talisman levels were only half-understood by Chu Ning before.
According to the jade scroll, talismans are divided into Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, and Top Level.
Each level is further divided into Lower Grade, Middle Grade, and Upper Grade, with different requirements for talisman paper at each level.
The kind of talisman paper Chu Ning used before was ordinary talisman paper, only suitable for making Basic Talismans.
If he wanted to make Intermediate and Advanced Talismans, he would need Middle Level and High Level Talisman Paper respectively.
Some talismans with special requirements even need to be made with Spirit Plant or Demon Beast hide.
Top Level Talismans require special Demon Beast hides for crafting.
There are also corresponding levels for Talisman Masters, who can produce corresponding levels of talismans with a success rate of over fifty percent.
These are called Basic Talisman Master, Intermediate Talisman Master, Advanced Talisman Master, and Top Level Talisman Master.
Of course, because there’s a significant difference between different grade talismans within the Basic Talismans,
the Cultivation Realm also frequently uses Tier One to Tier Three Talisman Masters to refer to Basic Talisman Masters with varying skills.
This is only an introduction to the basic knowledge of talismans, and the content of the jade scroll goes far beyond that.
It includes a more detailed system introduction of talismans, and as Liao Yunming said, there are quite a bit of personal insights.
Chu Ning gained a lot from it.
For most of the day, Chu Ning spent his time reading the basic knowledge in this jade scroll.
He didn’t even look into the talisman making methods provided later.
After finishing all the knowledge, Chu Ning put down the jade scroll, sinking into deep thought.
Continuously digesting and understanding the knowledge within.
With his Talismanic Spirit Body talent, his comprehension of talisman making is naturally very strong.
Therefore, he digested this knowledge quickly.
After a long while, Chu Ning finally came to his senses with a smile on his face.
He did not choose to continue looking at the talisman making methods in the latter part of the jade scroll.
Instead, he directly took out the previous talisman brush and talisman ink, along with a big stack of blank talisman paper from his storage bag.
"Let’s first verify my understanding with the Wood Escape Talisman."
He said softly, and then picked up the talisman brush, gradually infusing it with spiritual power.
Dipping in ink, initiating the stroke, moving smoothly, completing it in one go, Chu Ning finished a Wood Escape Talisman.
A flash of green light, and the talisman was successfully made without any issues.
Subsequently, Chu Ning started drawing talismans on talisman paper non-stop.
After making 20, Chu Ning put the talisman brush away and took out the Middle Grade Talisman Brush gifted by Liao Yunming.
The infusion of spiritual power was incredibly smooth, and Chu Ning felt like his spiritual power had reached the brush tip as soon as it was infused. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"As expected of a Middle Grade Talisman Brush!"
When enveloped with divine sense, it felt even more effortless and smooth.
With strokes like aided by divine power, Chu Ning quickly crafted another 20 talismans.
It was only until then that Chu Ning put the talisman brush down.
Looking at the two piles of Wood Escape Talismans before him, Chu Ning’s face was full of smiles.
"Using an ordinary talisman brush, the success rate of making Wood Escape Talismans reached 80%!
And using the Middle Grade Talisman Brush, the success rate reached 90%!!"
Such a success rate is often only reached by Intermediate Talisman Masters making Basic Talismans.
"Talismanic Spirit Body!"
Chu Ning silently repeated these four words in his heart, once again marvelling at the powerful talent of his Spirit Body.
Although he had already realized the strength of his Yin Wood Spirit Body while cultivating the Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique.
Picking up the jade scroll again, Chu Ning started to look at the talismans included in the latter part of the jade scroll.
The jade scroll contained all Basic Lower Grade Talismans.
There were the attack-type Flame Talisman and Profound Ice Talisman, the defensive Earth Armor Talisman, and the healing Rejuvenation Talisman.
There was even one related to Spirit Plant Cultivation.
It’s used to enhance the quality of spirit plants, called the Evergreen Talisman.
At this time, Chu Ning wasn’t being picky; he penetrated each talisman-making method one by one before immediately starting the practice.
Over the course of three days, Chu Ning kept himself completely secluded in his courtyard.
Not stepping out of the front door, not setting foot beyond the second gate, focusing solely on talisman-making.
Continually experimenting with the Basic Lower Grade Talismans from the talisman-making fundamentals jade scroll.
Resting if tired, cultivating when refreshed, and engaging in talisman-making when in good form.
Once more, Chu Ning fell into the state of sleepless nights similar to a few days ago.
This also allowed Chu Ning to somewhat understand Mu Ling’s insane talisman-making demeanor.
This endeavor really is addictive.
In three days, Chu Ning had learned to make all five types of talismans.
Although the success rate for making talismans was only 40%, Chu Ning had absolute confidence.
If given about another half month, he was absolutely sure he could raise the success rate of making these five talismans to over 60%!
And this, undoubtedly made Chu Ning marvel again at the might of the Talismanic Spirit Body.
On the early morning of the fourth day, after getting up, Chu Ning followed his usual routine of practicing the Refining Spirit Technique, Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique, and Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique.
He chose not to make talismans, but instead went into the courtyard.
"Before, I didn’t really want to reveal too many of my techniques in front of my neighbors, Lu Yunfang and Luo Hongping.
Their relationship with Qi Chongmao is still unclear to me, but I always felt as if the two posed some threat to me.
But now, they have already moved to Zone C two days ago.
I have no more reservations, it’s time to study the Cangmu Sword Technique."
Chu Ning murmured to himself, then casually pulled out a jade scroll from his storage bag.
It was the Cangmu Sword Technique given to him by He Changyou.
He Changyou had specifically mentioned then that this spell was very suitable for someone who had practiced the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill.
This piqued Chu Ning’s curiosity.
Picking up the jade scroll, Chu Ning looked through the content inside.
Only then did he discover that although the Cangmu Sword Technique had ’sword’ in its name, it wasn’t really limited to using a sword.
The spell’s attack just took on a sword-like form, which is why it was named so.
Upon finishing its study, Chu Ning finally understood the reason behind He Changyou’s words about the spell’s suitability for someone who practiced the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill.
Because the principle of the Cangmu Sword Technique has similarities with the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill.
The Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill works on spirit plants, helping them to gather and absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
While the spell from the Cangmu Sword Technique, if it strikes a cultivator, extracts their spiritual qi and magical power.
And it’s not just when used on cultivators; it can also work on some body protection magical power shields.
This can draw in the spiritual qi within, thus strengthening itself and increasing its attack power.
