Chapter 65: Painting Talismans
Li Muqing explained: "This yellow talisman can be summoned repeatedly until the spiritual power inside is exhausted, and then it will collapse and disappear. The yellow talismans summoned by these talismans are incredibly powerful, with strength comparable to that of a fifth-level beast. However, they move slowly and react sluggishly, making them only suitable for use as laborers. When building houses, they can be utilized."
Su Han asked: "Can anyone in our Xiaoyi Gate draw this kind of Huangjin Lisihu symbol?"
Li Muqing smiled and handed a secret book to Su Handao: "The Huangjin Force Symbol is the lowest level of symbol, our Xiaoyi Gate naturally has someone who can draw it. Here, this book records the secrets of the symbol."
"Thank you, little sister!" Su Han took the book and looked at it, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes. The book was indeed the "Lingfu Daquan", which recorded various magical talismans.
One stroke of the talisman is vast and profound, with unparalleled precision. A master of the talisman also possesses unpredictable powers of ghosts and gods. The Yellow Turban's Power Talisman can summon puppets, the Disease-Purging Talisman can cure all diseases, the Knife Talisman can summon divine blades, the Fireball Talisman can summon massive fireballs that shatter boulders, the Wind Blade Talisman can summon invisible wind blades that cut people in two, and the Vajra Talisman can make one's body as hard as steel, with boundless strength.
Su Han had long been fascinated by the mysterious and unparalleled Fu Lu. Moreover, after cultivating the Great Wisdom Sutra, he was extremely eager for all kinds of knowledge, and he was also very interested in the Fu Lu.
Li Muqing saw Su Han's appearance and was also very pleased. She raised her head to look at the sky for a while, then said: "Little Shidi, let's stop here for today. I'll come find you again tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Muqing's body flashed and leaped towards the top of Haoshu Peak.
Su Han returned to his house and casually ate some dishes sent by the responsible miscellaneous disciples, then opened the Spiritual Symbol Compendium and began studying the symbols inside.
That Lingfu Daquan is also a profound and subtle, extremely ingenious book. It begins by explaining some basic principles of Lingfu. So-called Lingfu refers to the powerful people in ancient times who cultivated themselves, observed the trend of heaven and earth, and understood the truth of the universe, and then used the method of talismans to specifically reappear the various terrifying powers they had gained insight into.
The talisman artist who draws the spirit talisman needs to possess incredibly powerful spiritual power. When drawing the spirit talisman, he must feel the infinite mystery contained in the pattern of the talisman, communicate with the mysterious laws between heaven and earth, and use the strong spiritual lifeblood as a guide to carry the object with strong spiritual power as the talisman paper to draw out the spirit talisman that possesses unpredictable and mighty power!
Even if an ordinary person obtained the Spirit Symbol Compendium, even if they drew it with great precision, it would be of no use. Because the symbols on the spirit symbol are just a bridge that allows the symbol master to communicate with the mysterious laws between heaven and earth. Without being able to communicate with the mysterious laws between heaven and earth, even using the blood and fur of a pre-heavenly demon beast, one cannot draw a true spirit symbol.
The art of talisman creation is vast and profound, requiring not only the talisman master to communicate with the mysterious laws between heaven and earth, but also careful consideration in the selection of materials. If one uses the blood and fur of a fire-attribute beast to draw a fireball talisman, its power will be greatly increased. However, if one uses the same materials to draw a water arrow talisman, the success rate will be extremely low, and even if successful, its power will not be great.
Su Han first completed the basic part of the Spiritual Symbol Compendium, and then began to flip through the spiritual symbols one by one, starting to select and study the symbol talismans.
Su Han glanced at the knife symbol on the Spirit Symbol Compendium and flipped it over: "I already have the Black Tooth Sword, its sharpness surpasses that of ordinary knife symbols, I don't need a knife symbol."
Dāo Fú, if Sū Hán hadn't obtained the Black Tooth Sword, he would have definitely practiced drawing Dāo Fú. But after possessing the Black Tooth Sword, the effect of Dāo Fú on him immediately became dispensable, so naturally he wouldn't waste time practicing Dāo Fú.
Su Han flipped through the Ling Fu Da Quan and saw the Po Jing Fu, his eyes lit up slightly: "Po Jing Fu, this kind of talisman is not bad. If one can refine a special-grade Po Jing Fu, it can even allow someone to ascend from the Ninth Realm of the Post-Heavenly Sect Master to the Heavenly Realm in a short period of time, and possess the cultivation of a Pre-Heavenly strongman for a short time."
Talismans are also divided into nine grades, with Knife Talisman, Yellow Turban Force, Vajra Talisman, and Boundary Breaking Talisman being the lowest grade. However, even among talismans of the same grade, there can be differences in quality. Ordinary Boundary Breaking Talismans can allow someone to leap from a Post-Heavenly Fifth Order cultivator to a Post-Heavenly Sixth Order expert. Special-grade Boundary Breaking Talismans, on the other hand, can enable someone to break through from a Post-Heavenly Ninth Order Grandmaster realm to become a Pre-Heavenly strong practitioner in a short period of time.
Of course, the top-grade Breaking Boundary Symbol is also extremely precious and difficult to refine. It requires the essence of a congenital demon beast and its skin to draw the top-grade Breaking Boundary Symbol. Even with these materials, it still needs a master-level symbol master to have a 30% chance of drawing the top-grade Breaking Boundary Symbol. Each top-grade Breaking Boundary Symbol can be sold for a sky-high price, and there is no market price for it.
Su Han saw the hunting heart and was delighted, so he wanted to practice drawing that mysterious broken boundary symbol. He casually reached out to the side and grabbed it, but ended up grabbing nothing.
"I don't have the beast's blood and fur." Su Han was slightly stunned, then habitually swept his gaze towards his blue ring, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Good thing, there is a brush for drawing talismans here, and the skin and blood of the Boar Tusk Pig, just right for me to practice with."
Drawing talismans requires not only the skin and blood of a demon beast, but also a good drawing pen. The top-grade drawing pen is a spiritual instrument with spirituality, which is worth a city. Su Han's drawing pen was the lowest grade, made from the hair of a wild boar pig.
Of course, if it were an extraordinary strong person in ancient times, using ordinary brushes and paper, with one's own extremely powerful magical powers, one could easily draw various talismans, move mountains and seas, pluck stars and take the moon, with infinite power. Su Han naturally didn't have that kind of skill at this time.
Su Han took out the Black Tooth Sword, and with a flash of sword light, he immediately cut the skin of that level 4 demon beast, Boar Tusk Pig, into palm-sized pieces of leather.
Immediately afterwards, Su Han took out the brush that had been used to draw the talisman, dipped it in the pure blood of the Jiao Tu pig, and with a concentrated mind, the mysterious and profound characters of the Po Jiang symbol appeared in his heart. His spirit became immersed in a state of mystery within mystery, communicating with the strange and wondrous laws of the universe. His right hand began to draw the talisman characters along a mysterious trajectory.
Every time the brush moved, it drew a large block from Su Han's vast spiritual power and injected it into the skin of the fourth-level demon beast, Cuo Tou Zhu. In an instant, Su Han's enormous spiritual power, comparable to that of a strong Pre-Heavenly cultivator, was sucked dry. When he finally put down his brush, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, leaving him pale as paper, his face deathly white.
