He took the book "The First Solution of Talisman Drawing" into his hand, sat on a chair and flipped through it.

These most basic introductory teaching books on cultivation are very cheap, ten spirit stones each.

Alchemy is much more expensive, fifty spirit stones a copy, Nangong Xiao didn't buy it because he thought it was expensive.

If it was just a book, it would be fine, but after learning about the Dan furnace, Dan Fang, alchemy fuel and other things,

After a rough calculation, he didn't need nearly three hundred spirit stones, so he gave up this thought.

An hour later, Nangong Xiao read the thin book of more than ten pages and breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, he understood, he said to himself with satisfaction.

When I bought it, I only knew anything about the content because I could only read the preface.

But judging from the few talismans seized, they are very similar to the talismans of the Taoist priests on the earth.

It just so happened that he used to be because of the body of Thor and two evil knives.

In the past, there was no shortage of Dao Techniques in the world.

Although I didn't learn the legendary Tao in the end, I drew the talismans in a similar way.

In addition, the upfront cost of the charm is the least.

That's why he took out a lot of spirit stones and bought a bunch of talisman materials.

He summoned a set of four treasures from the storage bag and spread them out on the table one at a time.

After all, it was the first time to draw a cultivator's talisman.

Moreover, the words in the book also warn beginners to guard against arrogance and rashness, and the probability of success in drawing at the beginning is very low.

Nangong Xiao only bought the materials for drawing a hundred times, and if he only made a few, it would really be a loss to his grandmother's family. It's better to familiarize yourself with the runes you want to draw first.

If the other monks knew about his idea, they would have scoffed, just drawing a hundred times is like preserving the capital? Draw it a thousand times!

Nangong Xiao was born in Xiucai, and calligraphy was the most important in the imperial examination at that time.

His pen skills are excellent, and he has dabbled in Taoist talismans, and the drawing of this rune is naturally smooth.

However, after more than 20 times of drawing, his wolf pen wandered the dragon and snake, and it was done in one go.

The various runes written on the white rice paper are no different from those on the "Initial Solution of Talisman Drawing".

Nangong Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the talisman pen he had purchased from Parkway.

After reviewing the details of each point and making sure that there were no omissions, he took out a pale yellow blank rune paper and spread it out, dipped the brush in ink and drew it.

This time, it is a Yuan Ling Shroud Talisman, a low-level shield spell with no attributes.

It can resist the ordinary blow of three inferior magic weapons. The defense ability is not strong, but the activation is extremely fast, and it is very marketable among the monks in the early and middle stages of Qi training.

The advantage of drawing the Yuan Spirit Cover is that after failure, there will be no explosions and loud noises like other talismans, and at most it will spontaneously combust and turn into ashes.

After all, he is now staying in an inn, and if he makes too much trouble, the innkeeper will invite him to "drink tea".

Nangong Xiao's expression was focused, which was different from the practice just now.

While drawing, you have to inject spiritual power slowly, and the intensity of the injection cannot be large or small, it must be stabilized in a very small range, otherwise it will fail.

As time passed, his brows gradually tightened, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and the speed of his pen became slower and slower.

Finally, halfway through the drawing of the rune, the rune paper snapped softly, and then an inch-high flame appeared from the edge, and quickly gathered in the middle.

The rune paper instantly disappeared.

"Ahh

It seems that he unconsciously made an expression of all his strength just now, and forcibly broke open the stiff skin.

He stared at the blood on his left hand, slowly recalling how he felt.

The moment he put pen to paper, he felt like he was going to suffer.

As soon as the spiritual power condensed on the tip of the pen touched the paper, it flowed into it like a sponge absorbing water, making Nangong Xiao's control of spiritual power become scrambling, and he almost failed on the spot.

He tried so hard to control the spiritual power to draw, but the situation showed no signs of improvement.

When he drew the twists and turns, the absorption of spiritual power by the rune paper became larger and smaller, so that he had to focus more energy on it, and the loss of his divine consciousness became greater and greater, so that in the end, his face became hideous.

But even then, it's only half the end.

Nangong Xiao couldn't help but feel a little deflated when he thought of this.

He didn't think that he would be able to achieve success the first time, but he couldn't even draw the complete rune, which was a blow to his confidence.

Otherwise, when the shopkeeper handed over the things to him, he showed a hint of a playful smile.

Sure enough, the money-making business in the world is not so easy to make.

Nangong Xiao washed his face, applied some golden medicine, and returned to bed to meditate.

The laceration on the face looks terrible, but in fact, the wound is very shallow, and the exercises are run after applying the wound medicine. After two hours, all the wounds had healed as before.

I touched my cheeks, which were still a little itchy, and smiled bitterly in my heart, if I draw a talisman in the future, my face will burst with blood, which is also too strong.

However, you still have to practice drawing talismans, after all, this thing is very beneficial whether you take it out to sell or use it yourself.

Since he had to meditate and repair his wounds every time, Nangong Xiao didn't go to sleep and rest, and started work.

By the light of day the next day, he had only practiced seventeen talismans, and spent most of his time healing.

However, he is very willing, and he can practice talismans and meditate and cultivate, although his face will collapse blood, but he will not care about this pain.

And a night of cultivation is not without gain.

Although I still haven't drawn a complete rune, it's not far off. The force of the pen is also a lot easier, and the cracked wound is shrinking every time, and it must not break after three or four more times.

Just when Nangong Xiao wanted to make persistent efforts and continue to fight. There was a knock on the door.

He was puzzled at first, then he understood a little. Opening the door, Wu Zifan stood respectfully by the door.

"It's coming to fruition?"

"Yes, there is an immortal on the East Street of Fangshi who wants to leave, the rental price is two hundred spirit stones for one year, there is an independent courtyard, half an acre of elixir field, a defensive array, and a small section of spiritual veins. In addition, there is also a house for rent in the southeast of Fang City, except that there is no spiritual vein, the others remain unchanged, one hundred and forty spirit stones a year. ”

"Spiritual veins!?" Nangong Xiao was a little surprised, he had heard of this thing, and it was the foundation of cultivation.

I heard that under the same circumstances, the speed of people cultivating with the help of spiritual veins was at least a few chips higher than that of ordinary people. It's just that I didn't expect to meet myself today.

Looking at the difference in the price of the two houses, it seems that the importance of the spiritual vein is not groundless.

"Nangong Shangxian," Wu Zifan saw that Nangong Xiao was silent, a little anxious, and hurriedly reminded.

"Huh? What's wrong? Nangong Xiao came back to his senses and asked puzzled.

Wu Zifan immediately said: "The little one hasn't finished talking just now, and I heard my friend say that the house with a spiritual vein is very sought-after. It's better to rush to the immortals early. ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier, go!" Nangong Xiao was in a hurry, letting Wu Zifan point out the direction and run away.
