Chapter 55: Apprenticeship

"What's wrong, my lord?" Lin Feng asked.

Wen Hou swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty: "You kid......! Is...... Lin Feng, do you know how long it took the old man to draw this first rune?"

Without waiting for Lin Feng to answer, Wen Hou stretched out his four fingers and sighed: "Four years! Four whole years! From the time the old man understood the true meaning of the rune in the first rune, it took another four whole years, I don't know how many failures I have experienced, how many materials have been consumed, before I can be regarded as drawing the first rune! And you actually succeeded in one time, demon!

When Lin Feng heard this, a hint of excitement appeared on his face. In this way, he is above the rune path...... Extremely gifted indeed?

In other words, he will soon be able to become a talisman master, help the Luoyun Sect, and help Ye Zi?

Wen Hou looked at Lin Feng with bright eyes, as if looking at a fragile treasure: "Lin Feng, you kid, you are really a genius! My Luoyun Sect has you, and there is hope for revitalization, haha! What Blood Moon Sect, what Kunyu Sect! As long as my Luoyun Sect can have thousands of more Xuanjia heavy horses, it will be effortless to step on them!haha!"

"My lord, I know that it is not easy to be a talisman master. Lin Feng gathered his mind and said softly, "Like me now, it will take five breaths to draw such a line, and if I draw the rune array on the steel armor completely, I am afraid it will take a long time." Moreover, I feel extremely tired from drawing such a rune, probably because my mental strength is consumed too much! I am afraid it will take a long time for me to help the sect. ”

Wen Hou said with a smile: "The way of the talisman is indeed not easy, but it is for ordinary people. The first time you put pen to paper, you can draw a complete line, which is absolutely genius. It takes five breaths, just because it's not skilled. Practice a little more, and it will be faster!"

"As for feeling tired, it's because of the exhaustion of mental energy. After all, your level is not enough, although your soul is stronger than those of the same level, but after all, your strength is limited. ”

"As you level up and your soul becomes stronger, it's natural to have an easier way to sketch runes. ”

Speaking of this, Wen Hou smiled mysteriously: "Boy, in fact, this outline rune itself, although it consumes spiritual power, is also a way to strengthen the soul! The more runes you sketch, the stronger your soul will be! As far as I know, this is the only way to strengthen the soul except for the legendary "Vermilion Bird Vientiane Gong"!"

Hearing Wen Hou mention the Vermilion Bird Vientiane Gong, Lin Feng's heart also jumped violently.

"The soul is the most mysterious thing in the human body, and the benefits of strengthening the soul for the strong go without saying. Every truly strong person will try to become a talisman, but unfortunately this is a talent, and unless you are born with a strong soul, it is impossible to succeed at all. ”

"Legend has it that the most powerful talismans of antiquity are also the most powerful warriors. The strength of their souls has reached the point where they can attack with spiritual power. Wen Hou sighed, "The most powerful ancient talisman master, you don't have to make a move against the enemy at all, just look at you, and you will die!"

Lin Feng was horrified in his heart, one glance at you, you died? What kind of terrifying ability is this?

"Such a powerful talisman is now extinct on the mainland! But the rune itself is practiced to the extreme, and it is also an extremely terrifying power. Wen Hou continued, "Now those powerful sects on the continent, the equipment of the strong ones is made of high-level talismans. It is said that a certain ancient sect has a weapon that can be called a divine weapon, weighing more than 100,000 catties, and after the blessing of the Fu Dao master, the user feels that it is only 100 catties. Think about it, what kind of power would such a weapon have in the hands of a strong man?"

Lin Feng's eyes widened, he had never heard of such a thing.

A weapon weighing 100,000 catties, the user feels that it is only 100 catties?

If a super strong person is holding such a weapon in the battle array...... How terrible would that be?

Looking at Lin Feng's shocked appearance, Wen Hou smiled with satisfaction.

"Boy, you have to remember that the rune master is not just the richest profession on the continent!" Wen Hou Zhengse said, "The rune itself also represents power! A high-level rune master will be feared by any strong person!"

"The rune path itself also represents power!" Lin Feng nodded.

Indeed, the talisman outlines the talisman and strengthens the soul. And the perception ability brought by the strength of the soul is extremely useful in battles. And the powerful equipment is all from the hands of the talisman. The equipment used by the talisman master himself must be the best that can be made.

A talisman who can make top-level equipment is naturally extremely powerful!

"What you need to do now is not to make equipment for the sect for me, but to familiarize yourself with the process of the talisman master carving the talisman array. Wen Hou smiled, "Proficiency is the most important thing." ”

Lin Feng nodded.

"But today, your spiritual power has been almost exhausted, so don't practice! I'll tell you about the profession of a talisman today. ”

Pointing to the ancient scroll in his hand, Wen Hou said: "The rune arrays carved by the talismans now are all created by the ancient talismans. Only the ancient runes had the ability to integrate the true meaning of the runes into the scrolls, and now no rune master on the continent could do this, just follow the runes on the scroll. And the inheritance of the rune also relies on this kind of scroll. ”

"It is precisely because there are fewer and fewer such scrolls that the number of talismans on the continent is getting smaller and smaller, and their status is getting higher and higher. The rune scroll is the most important resource for a runeman! Without a scroll, you can't become a runeman. ”

Lin Feng nodded, this truth was easy to understand. Now that the craft of making it has been lost, the number of natural talismans will become smaller and smaller. Wait until all the reels are damaged...... I'm afraid that the rune path is about to be cut off!

Of course, that was a long time later, and Lin Feng naturally wouldn't bother about it.

"Because of this, the simplest of the Elder Scrolls can fetch sky-high prices at auction. If you want to become a powerful talisman, you must think about getting more scrolls. ”

"So some people say that the talisman is the richest profession on the mainland, which is not accurate. For a talisman who is content with the status quo, it is naturally a lot of money. And for a talisman who wants to go further on the rune path, just collecting these scrolls is enough to leave him empty!"

"My lord must be such a person!" Lin Feng said.

Wen Hou smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Alas, it's also a shame to say! The sect treats me well, and every time I make equipment, I am paid enough for it, and I am not deducted because I am a member of the sect." The money ...... I spent most of it, and I also bought some scrolls, but unfortunately, on the rune path, I was never able to go further. ”

"Boy, do you know the rank of the talisman?" asked Wen Hou.

"I don't know. Lin Feng shook his head.

"There are three levels and nine levels of talismans. The weakest is the first-level talisman master. The first-level rune, the second-level rune, and the third-level rune master become a low-level rune. Fourth-level talismans, fifth-level talismans, and sixth-level talismans are called intermediate talismans. Seventh-level runes, eighth-level runes, and ninth-level runes are called high-level runes. Wen Hou said, "And I, after so many years, have never been able to touch the threshold of the second-level talisman. ”

Lin Feng was stunned, it turned out that Wen Hou was actually the worst kind of talisman.

But he soon regained his calm, after all, the profession of a talisman is too rare.

"Boy, I know what you're thinking. Wen Hou smiled lightly, "The rune inheritance is in jeopardy, and on the continent today, rune masters are extremely rare. Most of the talismans are only first-level talismans and second-level talismans. A third-level talisman is already extremely rare! an intermediate or above talisman is even more unheard of. ”

"Like me, the Falling Cloud Sect, with the Blood Moon Sect and the Kunyu Sect, is a three-legged force in this corner of the continent, only my Falling Cloud Sect always has a talisman master in charge, who can provide its own equipment. However, the Blood Moon Sect and the Kunyu Sect are intermediate sects that take refuge in the outside world, and the equipment of their armies is purchased from other sects, and they have to pay a large amount of worship to the sect they are sheltered every year. Therefore, among the three major sects, only my Luoyun Sect is the strongest. ”

After a slight pause, Wen Hou said: "Although I am only a first-level talisman master, it is because my own qualifications are too poor, but it does not mean that I am not good in this vein." The inheritance of the talisman master is different from that of ordinary sects, and it is all a single inheritance. The ancestor of my lineage back then was a well-known Ancient Rune Master!"

"Boy, since you have this qualification, you should worship me as a teacher, and from now on you will be the successor of my lineage, are you willing?"

After speaking, Wen Hou looked at Lin Feng, and a radiance of hope appeared in his eyes.

"I do!" Lin Feng said without hesitation.

Just kidding, if he can help Luoyun Sect and Ye Zi, why is he unwilling?

"Master!" Lin Feng said with a heavy kowtow to Wen Hou.

"Haha! Good boy, get up, get up!" Wen Hou was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and hurriedly pulled Lin Feng up.

For the teenager in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He himself is only a first-level talisman master, and so is his master, his master's master...... He is also a first-level talisman. But Wen Hou firmly believes that it is because everyone's qualifications are not good enough.

Now that there is such a talented heir, maybe in the future, my own line will really be able to carry forward and regain his prestige!

"Good apprentice, since you have worshiped me as a teacher, I will tell you that our lineage among the Fu masters is called the Yunding faction. The patriarch of the founding sect back then, named Venerable Yunding, was an ancient rune master. The scroll I showed you was painted by his own hand. ”

Lin Feng nodded, and said in his heart that the old man in the high-crowned strange costume was named Master Yunding.

"The rune master is divided into nine levels, and the scroll that records the rune array is also divided into nine levels. Like this scroll, it's a first-level rune scroll. ”

"A rune that can outline a few levels of rune arrays is a rune master of several levels. ”

Wen Hou waved his hand, and several scrolls appeared on the table: "Here, there are first-level scrolls and second-level scrolls. Take all these scrolls!"

"But, Master, don't you need it?" Lin Feng asked.

Wen Hou said: "Once a rune array is mastered, it will not be forgotten, and the scroll will be useless. And the secondary scrolls in this, to be honest, I can't understand any of them. I probably won't be able to become a second-level talisman master in my life, boy, it's up to you!"

"I'll try. Lin Feng also nodded.
