Chapter 17: The Blood Talisman of the Beast

The footwork in and out of the Lost Trace Array, Yang Ling did not reveal it to anyone except for telling Alice and Sophia, not even Strategist Good. After all, the Lost Array was the last and most reliable guarantee by his side. Otherwise, if you are sneaked up by a celestial killer during the retreat, the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable.

Although there were samurai patrolling at night, the castle was too big for every area to be closely monitored. Yang Ling believed that with the current strength of the defense team, not to mention any Heavenly List killer, even a great sword master or a great magician could easily sneak in.

In addition, the Anka family has been entrenched in Wieson Castle for many years, and the devil knows if they have dug any secret tunnels somewhere. Yang Ling didn't want to sleep until the middle of the night, and someone would crawl out from under his bed. But with the Lost Array Array, everything is much safer, and as long as the enemy steps into the coverage of the formation, he will immediately be confused by the Phantom Array.

The patrol team has little effect on the top masters, but the reason why they also expanded the scope of their patrol to the entire Weisen Town, Yang Ling just hopes to create inconvenience for the enemy's eyes and compress the enemy's intelligence sources and range of activities, he is not stupid enough to pin his safety on the low-level warriors patrolling. In this world of the jungle, only quickly improving one's strength is king.

After cultivating to the Spirit Witch, in addition to being able to set up a few simple magic circles, Yang Ling also had the ability to attack and defend through witch runes, which was much stronger than the Blood Witch, who could only domesticate demonic beasts through essence blood.

Witch runes, as the name suggests, are all kinds of Dao runes refined from various special materials such as cinnabar, Guanyin soil, and essence blood, which require a lot of magic power.

For a while, Yang Ling didn't know where there were strange things such as cinnabar and Guanyin soil in this strange world, so he was simply ready to make them all with the essence blood of demonic beasts. With the success of the Spirit Gathering Array and the Lost Trace Array, perhaps the magic runes refined purely from the essence blood of demonic beasts could have an unexpected effect.

After instructing Alice, Murberch and the others not to be easily disturbed, Yang Ling began to retreat to make witch talismans. If there is no cinnabar and Guanyin soil, all the essence blood of the Warcraft will be used, and if there is no good rice paper, it will simply be replaced by various Warcraft skins, and everything will be adapted to local conditions.

Holding a large brush made of wind wolf hair, Yang Ling gently glued the evenly mixed demonic beast essence blood, and then drew a 'palm thunder' witch talisman on a piece of beast skin the size of half a handkerchief.

The low-level 'palm thunder' is the simplest spell in the witchcraft, and when used, it only needs to be activated with a little magic power, and throwing it can attract a thunderbolt. It's as easy to carry as a grenade.

Pinching the bloodstained palm thunder witch talisman, Yang Ling carefully poured a trace of magic power into it. Soon, the ghost-drawn talisman-like animal skin emitted a mysterious fluctuation and gradually emitted a glimmer of light.

After feeling a strange force quickly condense in the air, Yang Ling hurriedly threw it into a small tree not far away. There was a muffled sound of 'boom', and the sound was quite scary, but unfortunately the small tree as thick as a thumb was not damaged at all. Light thunder does not rain, and it is useless to look at it.

Ibilisi, isn't it, this is a bluffing prop at all?

The witch talisman is an item with a surname, and it was blown into pieces after one use, so that Yang Ling couldn't find the real thing even if he wanted to analyze it, and he couldn't say it. In desperation, I had to draw another one. The result was frustrating, last time it was still scary, but this time it was just a soft snort like a big girl twisting and pinching a fart.

Without believing in evil, Yang Ling drew one again, this time even worse. Although the first two times were unsuccessful, at least they would ring, but this time it was good, there was no reaction at all, and no matter how much magic power was poured into it, it didn't work.

Three tests, three different results, Yang Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly, remembering the chemistry test in high school.

At that time, under the guidance of the teacher, as long as you are not a fool or super imbecile, you can easily complete the formulaic experiment, how much water to pour, how much alcohol, etc., all have a clear proportion. Even the teacher has already done everything, just asking the students to flip the switch, or light the fire, and go through the motions.

It's good now, there are no teachers, no all-encompassing Internet, and even the materials you need, so you can only rely on yourself to figure everything out.

After many failures, looking at the large pot of demonic beast essence blood that was stirred evenly, Yang Ling shook his head again. So much essence blood is enough to coagulate hundreds of blood beads.

Stir well?

Suddenly, looking at the various demonic beast essence blood mixed together, Yang Ling's heart moved, and he felt as if he had grasped a key place. Without further ado, he immediately took out a small vial of Wind Wolf's essence blood and carefully drew a simple 'palm thunder' talisman.

After making sure that it was correct, Yang Ling gritted his teeth and poured a trace of magic power. In the blink of an eye, the hides glowed with a dazzling silver light, and as soon as they were thrown out, they caused a thunderbolt that blew the tree to pieces.

Overjoyed, Yang Ling made persistent efforts and used the essence blood of the wind wolf to draw a series of witch talismans such as 'palm thunder', 'sky blasting cannon' and 'dolphin sound'. Without exception, all were a perfect success.

After comparing the essence blood of various demonic beasts one by one, Yang Ling found that generally speaking, the more advanced the essence blood of demonic beasts, the greater the power of refining witch runes, but some demonic beast essence blood used in some special witch talismans will have unexpected benefits.

For example, the 'Palm Thunder' refined by the Wind Wolf Essence Blood can only blow up a tree as thick as a bucket, but the Palm Thunder refined by the Double-Headed Deer Essence Blood, which is also a low-level demonic beast, can completely blow up a tree of the same size.

In the same way, the 'dolphin sound' refined with the blood of the rat can only make people dizzy after listening to it, but the 'dolphin sound' refined with the cuckoo's essence blood can directly attack the soul of the person through strong sound waves, and several barbarians passing by nearby are almost made idiots by the sudden arrival of the dolphin sound.

After understanding the trick of refining witch runes, Yang Ling spared no effort to refine all kinds of witch runes, and before he advanced to the earth witch, these witch runes were the treasures he attacked and saved his life. When you are tired, you will meditate and rest, and if your magic power is insufficient, you will swallow the blood beads of demonic beasts or go to the courtyard to absorb the aura of heaven and earth. After five days of retreat, he refined a full five hundred talismans of various kinds, and used all the demonic beast essence blood that he had spent thousands of amethyst coins to buy.

Ten Amethyst coins for a magic rune?

After roughly calculating, Yang Ling shook his head, if it was an ordinary person, he really couldn't afford it. Fortunately, after finding the treasure room accumulated by the Anka family for generations, not only did they find a large number of artworks and Warcraft crystal cores, but also many crystal coins. Not to mention anything else, it is not a problem to refine tens of thousands of witch talismans by yourself.

At the same time, through the obelisk in the Witch Tower, Yang Ling understood that the Blood Witch was just a foreshadowing of the cultivation of witchcraft, and the Spirit Witch had only just stepped into the threshold of cultivation. Only after cultivating to the realm of the Earth Witch and condensing the Wu Pill can he truly embark on the avenue of cultivation.

Although the magic runes such as palm thunder and dolphin sound are powerful, they are still only low-level witch talismans compared to the occult witchcraft. Only after breaking through to the realm of earth witches and condensing the witch pill can you refine intermediate and high-level witch runes, and gradually come into contact with various other mysterious and powerful witchcraft.

Wu Dan?

Yang Ling was full of expectations for the future, with the help of forest elves and barbarians, with the many hunters and mercenaries who flocked to trade, plus the spider army that he left to hunt in the Trus Forest, he believed that he would be able to obtain a large amount of demonic beast essence blood. As long as you persevere in cultivating, one day you will be able to smoothly advance to the realm of earth witches and condense the mysterious and powerful witch pills.
