Chapter 1495

Injecting the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder directly into the formation and injecting it during the process of imprinting the formation were naturally two completely different things.

The former was easy, while the latter required step-by-step cooperation with the steps of imprinting the formation, and the consumption of mental energy could be imagined. Could this be the reason for the favor he showed him?

Han Li was not quite sure, but his expression remained unchanged, and he agreed in one breath.

Seeing Han Li's submissive performance, the Earth Blood Old Monster nodded in satisfaction.

And the Earth Blood Old Monster moved his body, flying up a few steps, and arrived at one side of the puppet's chest.

With a shake of his sleeve, a pale red small bottle shot out.

The Earth Blood Old Monster raised his hand and flicked the bottle lightly with one hand.

Instantly, the bottle mouth opened on its own, and a ball of purple liquid shot out, circled, and hovered in the nearby air, flashing with faint spiritual light.

The Earth Blood Old Monster was shrouded in a blood robe, but his eyes became solemn, and the seals in his hands changed incessantly, extremely profound.

"Little Friend Han, you must watch carefully! This set of formation imprinting techniques can make the puppet produce many wonders. I will explain it briefly in a moment, and how much mystery you can comprehend depends on your own understanding. The more you comprehend, the more relaxed you will be when cooperating with my formation." A strange voice suddenly sounded behind Han Li.

Han Li was shocked, and looking back, he found that another person in a blood robe had appeared behind him at some point.

The other party seemed to have been waiting there all along, and he hadn't noticed his existence at all.

"Thank you, senior, for teaching the way of formation; this junior will definitely be attentive." Han Li cupped his hands and said respectfully.

This person in the blood robe waved his hand, signaling Han Li to pay attention to the other person in the blood robe's actions.

Han Li looked forward again.

He saw the other person in the blood robe forming a seal with one hand, while the other hand traced a few times in the void toward the purple liquid.

After a "peng" sound, a small piece of purple liquid split off, then exploded, turning into fist-sized runes, shooting toward the giant battle armor.

With a flash of spiritual light, the runes submerged into the battle armor and disappeared without a trace, but immediately, amidst a burst of low humming, they appeared on the surface of the battle armor again.

Under the movement of the person in the blood robe's fingers, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, these runes began to deform and reorganize, and in the blink of an eye, they transformed into a purple formation prototype the size of a zhang.

Some runes inside were changing, as if they hadn't taken shape yet.

Just as Han Li was watching intently, the other person in the blood robe beside him began to explain briefly:

"This formation is called 'Golden Imprint'; it has no other use, but it can make the battle armor extremely tough, enough to withstand ordinary magic treasure attacks without any damage. The formation is divided into three layers, the first layer is..."

Han Li's attainments in puppet arts and formation arts were also not low. While observing the process of the person in the blood robe imprinting the formation, he listened to the other person's brief explanation, his eyes flickering incessantly.

Opportunities like this, where one could hear a Void Integration stage existence personally teach and demonstrate, were naturally extremely rare.

Even though the other party was only explaining very superficially, it made Han Li suddenly enlightened on problems that had troubled him for a long time in formation and puppet arts.

In just the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the formation drawn by the person in the blood robe was more than half complete and began to show a state of solidification.

"Little friend, it's now. You just need to inject the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder into the formation eye of the last layer of the formation." The person in the blood robe standing beside Han Li urged in a low voice.

The voice was not loud, but as soon as it entered Han Li's ears, it immediately woke him from his study.

He didn't say a word and flew over.

Rubbing both hands, thunderous sounds erupted, and golden electric arcs shot out, illuminating the nearby area with a golden radiance.

The person in the blood robe standing beside Han Li looked at the golden electric arcs in Han Li's hands, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.

A month and a half later, Han Li's figure appeared in the quiet room of the Wood Essence Cave again.

He sat on a meditation cushion, playing with a white jade token in his hand, his face full of pondering.

During this month or so, he had spent almost day and night beside the giant puppet below the Blood Flame Palace, and finally helped the Earth Blood Old Monster complete the refining matter without any danger.

And when the time was up, Mu Qing also came to the Blood Flame Palace without being a day late and led him back.

Speaking of which, although he had exhausted his mental energy by injecting the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder into the formation day and night during this period, Han Li didn't feel that he had suffered any loss.

Not to mention anything else, just the spirit servant refining method and the formation arts he heard the Earth Blood Old Monster explain later made him benefit greatly.

Furthermore, when he was about to leave, the Earth Blood Old Monster also gave him a batch of puppet materials unique to the Earth Abyss and some rare medicinal herbs.

Although he knew that the other party might have other plans, it still made him feel satisfied.

However, what Han Li was pondering now was not this matter, but this incomplete outer page of the Golden Que Jade Book in his hand.

This outer page recorded several extremely powerful talismans.

Among them, the Taiyi Cleansing Talisman, he had already comprehended, and he even carried several of them on his body.

The other three were the "Nine Palaces Heaven Dry Talisman" for trapping enemies, the "Heavenly Spear Talisman" of an offensive nature, and the shadow puppet talisman "Jia Yuan Talisman".

Among them, the most powerful "Heavenly Spear Talisman" was too mysterious, and Han Li still couldn't grasp it, so he had to leave it aside.

As for the "Nine Palaces Heaven Dry Talisman" and the "Jia Yuan Talisman", after years of careful study, he had already comprehended seven or eight out of ten, leaving only a few key points that he couldn't fully understand.

But after more than a month of guidance from the Earth Blood Old Monster, who could be called a master in puppet and formation arts, coupled with the fact that he had painstakingly studied the spirit servant refining method in the quiet room these past few days, he was finally enlightened on these few problems and could refine these two types of talismans.

The materials required for refining these two types of talismans were naturally extremely rare, but fortunately, they were not the kind of items that had a price but no market. When he was in Sky Abyss City, he had collected multiple sets of materials for both types of talismans.

Now he could directly try it.

Originally, the refining of this kind of talisman required more contemplation and some practice before he could formally refine them using those rare materials.

But with several Void Integration stage demon kings eyeing him covetously, he couldn't afford to drag it out like this.

Although it looked like he was safe for a few years because of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, who knew if these demon kings would suddenly change their minds for other reasons.

Since he started his cultivation, everything had been achieved through his own efforts to ascend to the Spirit Realm, and even to his current cultivation, so he would naturally not entrust his entire life to others.

Refining these two types of talismans as soon as possible would naturally give him a few more life-saving means.

Han Li's expression shifted for a while before his face finally returned to calm.

He slowly closed his eyes, let his spiritual sense penetrate into the jade token, and read the secret arts of the two talismans from beginning to end again.

After a while, confirming that there were indeed no problems, he opened his eyes again!

He shook his wrist toward the void, and amidst the flickering spiritual light, a cluster of cyan light shot out, spinning endlessly in the low air.

It was Han Li's storage bracelet.

Han Li pointed a finger at it rapidly.

After a "pushi" sound, a burst of cyan mist swept out, and dozens of bottles, jars, wooden boxes, and jade boxes appeared on the ground.

He grabbed a white wooden box at random.

As the lid flipped open, something silver and shining shot out.

Han Li curled his five fingers, and this object stopped in front of him in a flash.

It was actually a piece of exquisite beast skin that was as smooth as silk.

This skin was not only silver and shining, but its surface also had natural patterns resembling runes, which looked extremely gorgeous.

This was the best material for refining shadow puppets, the beast skin of a rare ancient beast called the Wind Fire Beast.

This ancient beast was not only proficient in both wind and fire divine abilities, and its strength was comparable to a Spirit Severing stage existence, but it also liked darkness, cold, and sleep, and would sleep in dark, damp swamps for a long time. Only when it went out to hunt for food could people occasionally discover its tracks.

Shadow puppet talismans refined from this beast skin could not only increase the success rate but also increase the power of the talisman by another fraction. Therefore, its value could be imagined.

Han Li had also spent a great deal of effort to exchange it for a few sheets from a large material shop in Sky Abyss City using ten-thousand-year spiritual herbs.

The first thing Han Li intended to refine was the Jia Yuan Talisman.

This kind of talisman, like other shadow puppet talismans, once activated, could transform into a shadow puppet that could replicate some of the user's divine abilities and cultivation. The specific effectiveness depended on the talisman's refining level and the user's cultivation.

However, ordinary shadow puppet talismans could only replicate two to five percent of the user's strength and very few divine abilities. It is rumored that the perfect shadow puppet talismans that could replicate full strength only exist in the human race's Heaven Spirit Realm, but no one has ever seen them.

Of course, the replication of these shadow puppet talismans is not unlimited, and they are only useful for cultivators at the Void Refinement early stage and below.

Moreover, they are one-time consumable talismans; once the power is exhausted, the shadow puppet will also disappear.

And Han Li's Jia Yuan Talisman came entirely from the outer page of the Golden Que Jade Book, so its power was naturally incomparable to those ordinary shadow puppet talismans.

Depending on the refiner's level, the Jia Yuan Talisman's shadow puppet could easily assist the user with over seventy or eighty percent of their strength and most of their divine abilities, and it could replicate cultivators at the Void Integration early stage and below.

In this way, the preciousness of the Jia Yuan Talisman could be seen.

Naturally, because of this, this kind of talisman was far beyond ordinary shadow puppet talismans in terms of material consumption and refining techniques.

If he didn't possess the Spirit-Devouring Heavenly Fire, which contained both extreme cold and extreme heat, even after comprehending the refining method, it would still be difficult to refine.

Han Li gazed at the beast skin in front of him, collected his stray thoughts, and opened his mouth.

With a crisp "pu" sound, a ball of silver and shining flames was sprayed out.

It was precisely the Spirit-Devouring Heavenly Fire that had already gained spirituality.

A bird's cry rang out from the silver flames, and it instantly transformed into a fire bird the size of a foot, spreading its wings and circling the beast skin endlessly.

Seeing this, Han Li secretly formed a seal in his heart.

Instantly, the silver fire bird danced a few times, then dived into the beast skin.

After a "Zzzzt" sound, the silver flames wrapped the beast skin within them.

And the beast skin, burning in the silver flames, was not destroyed; instead, the runic patterns on its surface squirmed in the silver light, as if they had all come to life.

This scene appeared extremely mysterious!
