Chapter 28: Fuxi Divine Ability and Daoist Talismans

During this year of cultivation, Zhou Yi's strength progressed rapidly, and furthermore, his means of confronting enemies became countless.

Just like the previous performance, those four types of musical instruments were made based on information stored in the Dragon Pearl. Although the owner of the Dragon Pearl had already transcended during the ancient era, the Dragon Pearl had been passed through the hands of various people several times over the following thousands of years. Even though the world's spiritual energy gradually withered, it still subconsciously recorded all information in its surroundings.

Now, his Qiuniu Divine Ability has initially entered the threshold; when playing music, not only will he gain special effects, but different melodies will also grant different enhancements.

Besides this, his Fuxi Divine Ability can also be considered to have initially entered the threshold.

After more than half a year of hard practice in calligraphy and painting, he finally achieved minor success. After entering the threshold, he practiced calligraphy and painting while experimenting with various applications of the Fuxi Divine Ability.

Ning Fengzhi also armed his sect to the teeth during this year, from sect arrays to various offensive and auxiliary talismans; he had done it all. Of course, the Divine Ability comprehended in just one short year could only slightly improve a Spirit Master's strength, and even the defensive array could only defend against a Soul Elder, at most serving as a warning. But this was already very strong; after all, he had been researching this Divine Ability for a year.

Moreover, the sect array is still being perfected. When the Spirit Hall comes to sneak attack in a few years, it is estimated that not only will their sect not lose many people, but they will also be able to make the Spirit Hall pay a certain price.

But unlike Ning Fengzhi, Zhou Yi studies the Dao Scripture, which contains the production methods for various Daoist talismans and arrays, meaning he is standing on the shoulders of giants.

The main components of Daoist talismans:

Talisman Head: The most important part of starting a talisman, just like a person's eyes.

Talisman Gall: The essence of a talisman; whether a talisman is efficacious depends entirely on this secret technique.

Talisman Foot: Intended to summon soldiers and generals to guard; the talisman foot has many variations, all depending on the purpose of the talisman itself.

So-called talismans are the abbreviation of the "talismanic scripts and incantations" used by the Daoists. According to the brushwork of writing talismans: "A talisman is a union, a trust. I use my spirit to unite with their spirit, I use my Qi to unite with their Qi. The spirit has no form, but it takes form in the talisman. The spirits are attached to each other, the spirits rely on each other, so by using a piece of paper of a few inches, one can summon ghosts and gods, and the ghosts and gods cannot but respond." "A talisman is a spirit, the spirit's sound is an incantation, cursing and invoking the gods, causing them to bring down calamities."

The main techniques of Daoist talismans are drawing talismans and chanting incantations, praying and performing rituals, driving away ghosts and subduing demons for people, and praying for blessings and warding off disasters.

The Thirtieth Generation Celestial Master Xujing said: My family's dharma records can move heaven and earth above, shake mountains and rivers below, command dragons and tigers in the light, capture ghosts and gods in the dark, raise the decayed and skeletal, cultivate to escape life and death, and are great enough to stabilize the nation and small enough to ward off disasters.

Although he cannot yet produce overly complex arrays or various lightning talismans with extremely high power, he has still produced quite a few basic talismans.

Like Explosion Talismans, Flight Talismans, Defense Talismans, Rejuvenation Talismans, Invisibility Talismans, Speed Talismans, Water-Avoidance Talismans, Long-Distance Sound Transmission Talismans, etc., he has made at least a hundred of these various types of basic talismans. However, keeping so many is useless, so he gave them all to Qian Renxue, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong; each of them has at least several dozen in their hands.

With his current cultivation, these basic talismans cannot improve his strength too much; they just amount to having more means to confront enemies. He can only wait for the Fuxi Divine Ability to break through again to have a qualitative leap.

However, these talismans can only be considered one-time items; the greatest use of the Fuxi Divine Ability lies in enchanting items.

For example, the Angel Wings gifted by Qian Renxue were used by him with "A flower is a world, a leaf is a bodhi" as the core, and then he drew array patterns around it to expand the internal space of this ring Spirit Tool to 10 cubic meters.

And just a short while ago, he enchanted Qian Renxue's Angel's Tear again, not only increasing its Gathering effect but also leaving her other surprises.

As for this Fuxi Divine Ability, he also taught it to Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuqing and the others, but obviously, they do not have Zhou Yi's comprehension and free time. Once they spend time researching calligraphy and painting, their soul power cultivation will fall behind, so gradually they gave up and only treat it as an extra means to practice occasionally.

Actually, this is normal. Both the Spirit Master system and the Supernatural Power System can be cultivated to higher realms, but the Supernatural Power System requires comprehension, while Spirit Masters only need to absorb soul power step by step to improve. Both systems require time to cultivate, and for them, soul power cultivation is more effective in the same amount of time than playing with calligraphy and painting, so giving up this Divine Ability is a matter of course.

Nowadays, only Spirit Masters like Ning Fengzhi and Tang Yuehua who cannot improve their soul power can focus on cultivating the Divine Ability. There is also Zhou Yi himself; he has extra time to cultivate the Divine Ability because he does not plan to absorb a Soul Ring before his physical fitness improves. Even so, with Ning Fengzhi and Zhou Yi's cultural reserves, they have only just barely entered the threshold, which shows how difficult it is to cultivate this Divine Ability.

……

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,

Zhou Yi arrived at the main hall, and Ning Fengzhi had clearly been waiting here for a long time.

"Uncle Ning, Rongrong is missing, it's not a big deal, right? And, I guess, you should know her whereabouts like the back of your hand, why bother calling me over?"

Who knew Ning Fengzhi looked at him with a face full of resentment.

"Xiao Yi, did you give her the talismans you drew before?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yi understood instantly, his face full of embarrassment.

The talismans he gave were not few, and among them, the Flight Talisman allows people to fly, the Speed Talisman allows people to increase speed, and the Invisibility Talisman allows people to turn invisible for 5 seconds. Just think about the quantity of these talismans.

She must have told Ning Fengzhi that she was going to find Zhu Zhuqing and Zhou Yi to play, and then because Ning Fengzhi trusted Zhou Yi, he only sent two Soul Ancestors to follow in secret, and Ning Rongrong could easily shake off the two Soul Ancestors by relying on these talismans.

"Uh... Uncle Ning, should I go bring her back?"

"Sigh... I called you here indeed to ask you to find her, but there is no need to call her back.

Actually, I have long wanted to let her go out and gain experience. It's a pity that over these years, Jian Shu and Gu Shu have protected her like a treasure in the sect, and I have never found an opportunity. This time it happens to be just right.

I can roughly guess where she is. It is an academy. I have investigated it; although the environment is arduous, the teaching staff is very excellent, even better than many high-level Spirit Master academies on the Continent. This kind of place is just right to grind her temper.

Xiao Yi, I hope you can go too. Actually, I have nothing left to teach you in terms of literature; the rest depends on your own comprehension. Moreover, your writing and painting lack one thing: the human touch.

As far as I know, the number of people you have interacted with this year does not exceed 10. Being a spectator will never give you as much insight as delving into the mortal world. As your half-teacher, I still hope you can experience some things that young people should experience. I look forward to seeing your style at the Elite Spirit Master Tournament in two years."

Ning Fengzhi patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder and said earnestly.

In fact, during a year of getting along, Ning Fengzhi and the others had completely treated Zhou Yi as a close junior.

And he was not worried about Ning Rongrong's safety; compared to Zhou Yi, he gave her more spiritual talismans. Compared to Zhou Yi, his spiritual talismans relied entirely on the Fuxi Divine Ability for enhancement without the bonus of the Dao Scripture. Even so, he gave Ning Rongrong over a hundred self-made spiritual talismans.

Because he was worried that Ning Rongrong would use the spiritual talismans to be naughty, he gave her only defensive spiritual talismans. With these defensive spiritual talismans, plus Zhou Yi's talismans, she could run away even if she encountered a Spirit Saint, and Spirit Saints are already a small minority of people with top-tier strength in this world.

"This..."

Zhou Yi thought about it. Indeed, he had spent a lot of time in deep mountains and old forests in previous years, and he was indeed a bit out of touch with society. This year, there was some improvement, but as Ning Fengzhi said, the number of people he could talk to did not exceed 10, and his daily acts of chivalry were just acting as a spectator.

And he hadn't seen Xiao San and Xiao Wu for a long time. Since that's the case, then he would go.

"Alright, Uncle Ning, I will go."

"Hahaha, it's good that you can think it through. This is a letter I wrote to their academy dean; you can just give it to him when the time comes. As for Jian Shu and Gu Shu, they don't know about this yet, but when the time comes, I will tell them you went to find Rongrong, and I suppose they will be relieved."

Indeed, Jian Chenxin and Gu Rong had wanted to take him as a disciple more than once this year, and for this, they had even fought each other several times, but he had rejected them all. After all, one can have many teachers, but only one master; he might never take a master in his life.
