Chapter 266 Zhu Wen shows his talent for spiritual talismans (3400 words, please subscribe)
Half a year later.
Halfway up Lingxiao Mountain, in a quiet courtyard shrouded in clouds and mist, a middle-aged man with a simple and honest face was sitting in front of a small table, holding a talisman pen tightly and holding his breath while placing it on the small table. Continuously depicting on a blank piece of paper.
After about a stick of incense, when the blank talisman paper was filled with talisman patterns, the honest middle-aged man picked up the talisman pen.
The next moment, all the talisman patterns on the talisman paper flashed red, and merged into a whole as if they were made from nature.
The honest middle-aged man looked slightly happy when he saw this scene.
“Another fireball talisman.”
With a happy sigh, he also put away the newly drawn fireball talisman and took it from the dozen talisman papers in the upper left corner of the small table. He pulled out a blank piece of talisman paper again, and used the talisman pen in his hand to lightly dip the small plate of talisman ink placed in the upper right corner.
Then he wrote on this blank talisman paper and began to draw dragons and snakes.
The whole process went smoothly without any stagnation.
Several hours later, when the man had exhausted the dozen blank talisman papers placed on the left foot of the small table, he stopped drawing.
On the small table in front of the middle-aged man, there are five fireball talismans of good quality.
Looking at the five fireball talismans on the small table, the middle-aged man's face lit up with joy and he murmured secretly.
“In the past two days, I have refined the Fireball Talisman, and every ten pieces can be turned into five talismans. It is basically certain that the success rate of my refining this talisman is as high as 50%.”
< br>"This is a good thing. This will not only stabilize my position in the Ling family and make the Ling family reluctant to touch me, but I can also earn more resources by drawing this talisman."
Thinking of this, he suddenly burst into laughter.
This honest and honest middle-aged man is "Zhu Wen" who was captured alive by Ling Pengyun when he failed to kill Ling Pengyun, and was taken back to Ling's prison and tortured as a black slave who spent his whole day drawing magic charms for Ling's family.
Zhu Wen was overjoyed, and then he stood up, walked out of the quiet room, and came to the center of the courtyard. He waved his hand and fired a burst of spiritual power, touching the thick white mist that enveloped the entire courtyard.
The thick white fog was touched by the spiritual power, and with a flash of inspiration, formations appeared, making the thick fog covering the courtyard a little thicker.
Zhu Wen was not surprised when he saw this.
That layer of thick fog was transformed from a first-level low-grade tracking array, which was specially used by the Ling family to trap Zhu Wen in this courtyard.
Lest Zhu Wen, a talisman maker, bring many spiritual talismans with him to endanger the weak early-stage qi-training clansmen in the Ling clan's mountain by helping the Ling clan to refine the talismans.
In addition to this mysterious array, there is also a first-order mid-grade photo array arranged in Zhu Wen's courtyard.
The photo array can record what happened within the array. This array is used by Ling to supervise the number of spiritual talismans drawn by Zhu Wen, so as to prevent Zhu Wen from hiding the magic talismans while helping Ling draw the spiritual talismans.
Zhu Wen touched the thick layer of white fog that shrouded the courtyard. After waiting for about half a stick of incense, the thick layer of fog suddenly dispersed, leaving a small corridor.
After a while, a rickety old man wearing Ling's Taoist robe entered Zhu Wen's courtyard from this small corridor and walked up to Zhu Wen.
Zhu Wen was a little surprised when he saw this person.
"Senior Ling, why are you here to hand over the successfully drawn fireball talisman to me? Wasn't it always fellow Taoist Ling Pengliang in the past?"
Since the Monster Rebellion During this period, he officially accepted the Ling family's commission to refine the spiritual talisman. Since he was trapped in this courtyard by the Ling family, the spiritual talisman he drew has always been traded with Ling Pengliang, the current acting elder of the Ling family.
The rickety old man in front of him is Ling Ruxian, the great elder of the previous generation who has long been relegated to the second line due to his short lifespan.
Although Zhu Wen had been captured alive in the Ling clan mountain for more than ten years, he had little contact with the Ling clan people. However, during the time when he was captured alive in the Ling clan mountain, Ling Jinxian was still serving in the General Affairs Hall, so He also knew Ling Ruxian.
"Pengliang has other matters to attend to. In the next few months, I will take over the matter of drawing the magic talisman with you."
"This time you touched the mysterious building around the courtyard. The mist transformed by the trace array, but have you drawn the fireball talisman that I, Ling, commissioned you to draw this month?" Ling Jinxian didn't want to answer Zhu Wen's answer, and said after a simple perfunctory sentence.
Zhu Wen felt strange after hearing Ling Ruxian's explanation.
The Ling clan is a foundation-building clan, and the position of the great elder is a top priority. If Ling Jinxian replaces the current great elder of the Ling clan, Ling Pengliang, and only hands over the talisman to him this time, he will not Nothing to feel.
But in the next few months, it would be Ling Ru who came to hand over the spiritual talisman affairs to him, and the information contained in it would be huge.
“As the great elder of the Ling family, Ling Pengliang is in charge of the affairs of the Ling family and seldom goes out.”
“Now that the monster chaos has ended, Ling Pengliang also It is even more impossible to leave the Ling family for several months."
Zhu Wen was thinking a lot, thinking that when Ling Pengliang came to hand over the spiritual talisman affairs to him last month, Ling Pengliang was about to reach the stage of perfecting his Qi training. thing.
“It turns out to be foundation building. No wonder Ling Pengliang will have difficulty coming to hand over the spiritual talisman affairs to me in person for several months.”
"However, this Ling clan is really capable of producing many people."
"With my qualifications and age, I have no chance to build a foundation in this life. I am afraid that I will never have the chance to leave the Ling clan mountain in this life." ”
“Hey.”
Zhu Wen sighed, came back to his senses, waved his hand to the storage bag on his waist, summoned five dozen fireball charms and handed them to Ling in front of him. Enter first.
Afterwards, he forced a smile and took the initiative to tell the story about the improvement in the success rate of drawing the magic talisman this time.
"Furthermore, relying on the insights left by the talisman makers recorded in your family's talisman inheritance, and with the help of hundreds of talisman papers provided by the Qin Ling family every month, my success rate in drawing the fireball talisman has reached 50%. ."
" At the beginning of this month, I refined a total of forty-five fireball talismans from the hundred blank talisman papers that you, Ling, gave me. "Is what Zhu Daoyou said true?" Ling Jin first heard Zhu Wen draw the fireball talisman. The probability increased to 50%, and he looked slightly shocked.
The 50% probability of drawing a fireball talisman is not low. If the talisman maker masters this probability of success, it means that the talisman maker has a relatively good idea of which kind of talisman to draw. High level.
Generally, this level is not something that an ordinary first-level lower-grade Talisman Maker can achieve.
"Of course, if Senior Ling doesn't believe it, you can count the 45 fireball talismans I drew this month. If there is no 50% success rate, it will be difficult to draw 45 fireball talismans with a hundred blank talisman papers. "
"Furthermore, senior, you can also use the photo array arranged by your family around my courtyard to call up the images of the fireball symbols I have drawn in recent days, and everything will be clear. Zhu Wen said with a smile.
Ling Jin saw that Zhu Wen was so confident. In addition, Zhu Wen drew several more fireball talismans this month than before, so he somewhat believed what Zhu Wen said.
However, in order to confirm this, after taking the forty-five fireball talismans from Zhu Wen, he still called out the photo array arrays arranged around Zhu Wen's courtyard from his storage bag.
The photo array is somewhat special, it is in the shape of a bronze mirror.
Ling Jin first used the magic formula and penetrated into the formation disk, and images suddenly appeared on the surface of the formation disk.
After watching for several hours, Ling Jin quickly went over the entire process of Zhu Wen's drawing of the talisman in recent days, and then confirmed what Zhu Wen had just said about the success rate of drawing the fireball talisman reaching 50%. .
Afterwards, Ling Ruxian thought carefully about Zhu Wen's success rate of drawing the fireball talisman reaching 50%, and then spoke.
“Fellow Taoist has such a success rate in drawing fireball talismans. I think that fellow Taoist has a lot of attainments in the field of spiritual talismans.”
“I, the Ling family, also want to train fellow Taoists, so, I plan to take out an extra hundred pieces of first-level middle-grade blank talisman paper to support fellow Taoist, and let you draw the first-order middle-grade fire talisman that you are best at, the rocket talisman.”
"If you, fellow Taoist, can draw a rocket talisman by relying on the hundred pieces of first-class blank talisman paper supported by me, the Ling Sect, for you, I, the Ling Sect, are willing to purchase it from you at the price of ten spiritual stones each."
< br>"However, this move will make fellow Taoist a little tired. After all, I, the Ling family, will still entrust fellow Taoist to help me refine the fireball talisman every month in the future."
On the market, a rocket The price of the talisman is five spiritual stones.
The reason why the rocket talisman drawn by Zhu Wen was purchased at the price of ten spiritual stones and one rocket talisman was to increase Zhu Wen's enthusiasm for drawing the rocket talisman.
The exercises Zhu Wen practiced were of the fire attribute, and his control of the fire attribute aura was somewhat stronger than the other four types of five element auras. It was also somewhat helpful in drawing fire talismans.
Therefore, Zhu Wen's main focus was on fire-based talismans. He rarely painted the other four common talismans of water, wood, earth, and metal.
"Junior is not afraid of being tired. Thank you, Senior Ling, for your consideration." When Zhu Wen heard this proposal, his expression suddenly became happy and he agreed immediately.
The reason why he took the initiative to reveal the increase in the success rate of drawing fireball talismans was because he was waiting for this moment.
Now that the monster chaos is over, the Ling clan can equip themselves with a large number of fireball talismans that he refined to protect against monsters.
And the fireball talisman he refined is of a lower grade, so it is still difficult to sell on the market.
In addition, the Ling family is not without talisman masters. If it were not for the monster chaos, too many monsters would invade the Ling family's territory.
I'm afraid Zhu Wen is still working as an illegal worker, earning a basic salary and constantly using monster skins day and night to refine blank talisman paper for the Ling family.
Under such circumstances, if he does not show more value to Ling, his situation will not be good.
After all, in this world, no one wants to support idle people.
Ling Jin saw Zhu Wen's response first and had already expected it.
There was also a smile on his face, and he put the five dozen spiritual talismans that Zhu Wen had just handed back into his storage bag, and then took out a hundred blank talismans from the storage bag and handed them to Zhu Wen in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, if you want to thank me, please thank me, Ling, for caring about you."
"These hundred pieces of first-grade blank talisman paper are commissioned by me, Ling, to refine the fireball talisman next month. Required spiritual materials"
"As for me, Ling. I don’t have the hundred first-level blank talisman papers with me to help you, please wait for me for a moment.”
After saying this, Ling Jinxian slowly leaned on the mist array in his hand. , passed through the thick fog shrouding Zhu Wena's courtyard, and left this place.
When he returned here, he also handed over to Zhu Wen the hundred pieces of first-class middle-grade blank talisman papers that he had just promised to fund.
“Fellow Daoist Zhu, I’ll start with the ugly words. If you don’t draw more than five rocket talismans based on these hundred pieces of first-order middle-grade blank talisman paper, your future efforts to draw talismans for my Ling family will also be limited. Reduce it by 30%," Ling Jinxian said in a deep voice.
Zhu Wen, who had just received the hundred first-grade middle-grade blank talisman papers with a face full of joy, didn't care when he heard this, he said confidently.
"Senior Ling, please rest assured. I am still confident of the 50% success rate in refining the rocket talisman."
"I hope so." Ling Ru saw this first and showed no emotion. After answering, he left the place.
Zhu Wen then returned to a quiet room in the courtyard and tried to draw a first-level mid-grade rocket talisman using the hundred pieces of first-grade middle-grade blank talisman paper he had just obtained.
If the rocket talisman can be drawn, one can be worth ten spiritual stones.
He is not far from the peak of the sixth level of Qi training now. If he has enough elixirs to help him, he will reach the peak of the sixth level of Qi training in a few months and reach the bottleneck of the seventh level of Qi training.
At that time, he can also ask the Ling family for the first-level high-grade miasma-breaking pill that was originally promised to him, and then rely on this pill to directly break through to the seventh level of Qi training and enter the elite level in the Qi training period. In the "late stage of Qi training", he will also have more resources to save his life in the Ling family.
