Chapter 40

While drawing talismans is a very basic skill for most wizards, very few are good at drawing talismans. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIn the wizarding world, masters who are good at making talismans have always been very rare.

Because of this, Zheng Qing's amazing performance in Fu Zheng's class spread quickly in school.

Every student is full of curiosity about being able to skillfully outline all the basic talismans and the rumored 'Kunlun Heir'.

On weekdays, out of politeness, everyone suppresses this curiosity in their hearts.

But today, Zheng Qing has managed to spark everyone's curiosity.

The desk in front of the bar, the four treasures of the study room with full pen and ink, and the ritual of burning incense and praying, this posture clearly means that Zheng Qing is about to show his ability as a 'Kunlun heir'.

The onlookers were gearing up, looking even more nervous than Zheng Qing at the desk.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the rabbit purple pen in Zheng Qing's hand.

Even the barkeeper, the gray-robed wandering mage, paid attention to Zheng Qing.

The lights and music in the bar have been silenced at the behest of the owner.

The candles floating above the hall formed a circle and gathered above Zheng Qing's head, and the originally pale blue firelight had somehow turned white and burned, casting a shadowless bright world on the floor.

Because the light sources were concentrated above Zheng Qing's head, the back of the bar looked a little dim, and only a row of flickering pale green light spots could be seen. It was the glowing wings and tentacles of the elves. The little ones sat quietly above the kitchen, their mouths closed, and they didn't make a sound.

Zheng Qing closed his eyes, feeling the oppressive quietness, breathing softly, his shoulders slowly rising and falling with his breathing, but his elbows and wrists seemed to be cast in iron, not moving at all.

The white light above his head fell on top of him.

fell on his shoulders and elbows.

fell on his wrist.

Fall on the tip of the pen that is full of ink.

The ink seeps out along the gaps and converges into beads at the tip of the pen;

Zheng Qing still didn't move.

The ink beads gathered bigger and bigger, and finally broke free from the shackles of rabbit hair under the action of gravity and fell freely to the yellow paper.

"Ahh

Zheng Qing's eyes were still closed, but the pen in his hand seemed to be pulled by the drop of vermilion ink, and then fell to the paper.

The free drop of vermilion ink fell on the yellow paper, as if it was about to smash the paper through.

The purple pen followed, and the tip of the pen was placed on the ink before it fell off the paper.

A meal, a pen,

One even, one rendering.

The tip of the pen danced, pulling each other with the free drop of ink, like a wild horse on the loose horse, running freely on the yellow paper.

There was a sigh of admiration from the crowd of onlookers.

Several students standing in the front row even involuntarily made a gesture of holding the pen and learning the action of Zheng Qing's pen and pen movement.

A book is completed in one stroke, and a good painting is produced in one go.

Between breaths, a complex and gorgeous talisman appeared in front of everyone.

As soon as the pen was exhausted, Zheng Qing put Zihao back to the turtle back inkstone and let it suck the ink in the inkstone pool again.

He raised his left hand, shoved the tip of his thumb into his mouth, bit and pulled hard, and then pressed his bloody finger on the outlined rune paper and forked the talisman foot.

The onlookers were silent.

No one expected Zheng Qing to use this radical method of sealing spirits.

For wizards, drawing talismans is a 'dilemma'.

One dilemma is to draw runes. Without the guidance of a famous teacher and a solid foundation, it is easy to make mistakes when drawing a talisman, and perhaps a deviation of four or five degrees from the top and bottom of a certain apostrophe, which will make the talisman express a completely different effect from the original.

Another difficulty is the infusion of spirits. Different inheritance schools have different ways of instilling spirits, but all the methods of instilling spirits pay attention to the consistency of body and mind, and breathing coordination. Many shamans are prone to failure when their breathing is disturbed and unsettled when they are sketching the characters.

After the dilemma, a talisman is ninety-nine.

It's just that those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety.

In the end, it made many wizards disgraced.

This is the last calamity of the drawing talisman: the sealing of the spirit.

Sealing the spirit, literally, is the spiritual mechanism that seals this talisman, but in fact it is also the same.

After each rune is completed, the spiritual energy is constantly draining over time, and if it is not banned, it may only be the blink of an eye, and the spiritual energy infused on the rune paper will be dissipated.

In the long practice, the wizards have explored different methods of sealing spirits.

The most common is the 'Soul Sealing Talisman'.

The spirit sealing talisman is to add another ciphertext to the foot of the talisman that has already been completed. This ciphertext is like a shackle, able to lock the spiritual power on the rune paper. Different genres of ciphertext writing are different, and the effect is also very different. Some ciphertexts can lock the spirit for decades, and some ciphertexts will be overwhelmed by the spirit machine after a few hours.

This approach has more than that. The writing of each ciphertext is extremely complicated, and sometimes it only takes a minute to sketch a complete rune, but it takes half an hour to write the ciphertext of this rune! Sketching a complex ciphertext on a small rune foot is a great test for a wizard. The slightest carelessness will be wasted.

In addition, there is a relatively rare way to seal the spirit, which is the 'spirit seal'.

The Seal is a magic weapon specially created to block spiritual machines. When the wizard finishes sketching the talisman, he only needs to hold the seal, use cinnabar ink, and cover it on the talisman paper, and you're done. The success rate of this method is extremely high, but because of the high and rare nature of magic weapons, only the master talisman masters have the capital to use the spirit seal.

In addition to the previous two widely circulated methods of sealing spirits, there is also a rude, fast, and effective, but rarely used method of sealing spirits in the wizarding world - blood sealing.

As the name suggests, blood seal is to seal the spirit with blood.

After the talisman is completed, the wizard who draws the talisman only needs to use a few drops of his own blood to smear it on the foot of the talisman and draw a few checks to complete the sealing of the spirit.

This method is simple and efficient, and the effect of sealing spirits is excellent.

The vast majority of Blood Seal Talismans are valid for more than one year!

It's just that everything comes with pros and cons.

On the one hand, this method of sealing spirits is relatively barbaric, and it seems a bit out of place in the increasingly civilized modern wizarding world, and on the other hand, the rune paper produced in this way can easily reveal the secrets of wizards.

There are hundreds of examples in the Encyclopedia of the Wizarding World, about wizards who accidentally shed a few drops of blood, were captured by their opponents and cast a curse, and the end was tragic.

To this day, few wizards would use this painful and risky way of sealing spirits unless they needed it urgently.

In the wandering bar, the onlookers watched silently as Zheng Qing bit his finger and sealed his spirit with blood.

No one expected him to use such a drastic technique.

Some onlookers who wanted to get a glimpse of the 'Kunlun Ciphertext' couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

But more students had admiring expressions on their faces.

Not everyone has the courage to bite their fingers.

Not every wizard has the guts to spill their own blood outside the lab.

Zheng Qing was unaware of the atmosphere around him that was silent.

His eyes were still closed, and the momentum of the next talisman was brewing.

The Qingxin talisman that had been written was lightly touched by him with his fingers, and it was sent to Xiao Xiao's hand not far away.

Xiao Xiao took the rune paper, pinched the right time, and released it to the sleeping Li Meng.
