Chapter 46: Success
The next day, Li Bufan went to Yangsheng Street early in the morning to buy the blank rune paper and cinnabar red ink needed to make talismans.
Li Bufan arrived at Yangsheng Street, went around, and finally found a stall selling these two things, and immediately asked the stall owner for the price, I don't know, just this rune paper costs half a spirit stone, and a spirit stone can only buy two.
And the cinnabar red ink is even more expensive, and it takes five spirit stones to buy the amount he got yesterday.
He also knew before that these two things were definitely not the same as red ink and rune paper in the secular world, but he had never thought about how expensive a few pieces of paper could be.
You know, when practicing talisman making, the consumption of these two items can be described as huge, let's just say that yesterday, he used more than 20 pieces of talisman paper, and half of the red ink, but he still has no understanding of the way of talisman making, so if you want to get started, let alone hundreds of rune paper, and several times the red ink, so that it will be converted to almost sixty spirit stones, even if Li Bufan has enough spirit stones on hand, but he can't afford such consumption.
He once thought that the stall owner was sitting on the ground and raising the price, and he had an argument with the stall owner about it, and the stall owner also said that his family sold these talisman papers in the entire Yangsheng Street.
Hearing this, Li Bufan naturally didn't believe it, and left angrily, wanting to find other shops.
But in the end, as the stall owner said, he was the only one on the street who had this thing.
Li Bufan's face was black for a while, but there was nothing he could do, these two items were necessary, so he had to endure the pain and buy a hundred pieces of rune paper, and two taels of red ink. This made Li Bufan use sixty-four spirit stones.
Li Bufan walked on the road, looking at the contents of the storage bag, he swore that he must make a finished product among the hundred.
As soon as he got home, he came to the familiar stone table and began to work hard, and as time passed, the pit became deeper and deeper. But Li Bufan showed no signs of stopping.
Li Bufan has used up sixty pieces of rune paper, and the time has come from day to night, because Li Bufan has no heart to run the spiritual power all over his body at this time, causing some insects to crawl on his body, although the bite does not hurt him, but that feeling also makes Li Bufan very irritable, plus the day's talisman making process has made no progress, and his heart can't help but rise angry.
He can't say that he hasn't made progress this day, at least he is more proficient in the action of drawing talismans, from the previous time it took an hour to draw a rune paper, and now it only takes three pillars of incense to finish it, but it only improves his drawing speed, he seems to be too anxious, resulting in the inability to calm down and study carefully, the mysteries of this, such as how to correctly introduce spiritual power into the rune paper, how to make the spirit stone more stable, he still doesn't know anything, and in the end, the first sixty rune papers are also wasted, More than thirty spirit stones were used up in one day.
After another hour, Li Bufan couldn't stand it anymore, not only because of his physical exhaustion, but also because of the blow to his soul, so he went back to the house to rest.
Because he has rested for two days, Li Bufan is going to start cultivating again, so the time for making talismans has also decreased, and gradually, Li Bufan is also relieved, he knows that this talisman is in a hurry, and can only accumulate over time, so there is no more trouble, after all, he can't do anything except for the current idea.
Stopping his obsession with talisman making, Li Bufan's mind finally regained his previous calm, and he began to concentrate on cultivation, wanting to break through the nine-layer realm as soon as possible, but he had no clue.
fell into a moment of confusion again, he couldn't waste time like this, now the realm is stagnant, and there is no progress in talisman making, these days, he seems to have done nothing, and a sense of guilt appeared in Li Bufan's mind.
He's going to have to do something.
Because he didn't know when his realm would be able to return to normal ascension, he had to do something simple that he could stop at any time, and of course this matter would definitely help him now.
Li Bufan thought for a while, and his eyes were fixed on a hemp rope hanging on the door.
Hemp rope ...... Yes, he hadn't seen the Bunching Spell yet.
This spell should be a simple spell, just like the palm thunder and the water control technique, such a spell is simple and does not take much time, which is suitable for Li Bufan's current situation.
He immediately took out the Bunch Spell and flipped through it.
This book also records the effect of the Bundle Divine Mantra and the specific cultivation method, which is roughly the same as Li Bufan's speculation.
The sky is filled with early morning mist, and wisps of morning light fall on the protagonist. He sat cross-legged on the edge of a cliff with weeds growing around him.
Li Bufan put his hands together and stretched out four fingers, comparing the appearance of a sword finger, pointing at a tree trunk of just the right thickness in front of him, which seemed a little inexplicable.
But soon, his whole body exuded a faint aura. He began to urge the true yuan in the dantian, allowing the aura to gather at his fingertips.
As the aura runs, the protagonist feels as if an invisible force is beginning to condense in his body. He silently recited the mantra of the curse in his heart,
With his voice, the wind blew the leaves, and a slight tremor echoed in the mountains.
The main character's muscles are tense all over his body, and fine beads of sweat ooze from his forehead. He took a deep breath, concentrated his energy, and began to condense the power of cultivation into his hands.
A glimmer of light gradually formed between the hands, and in the direction of the fingers, a trace of spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared.
Symmetrical four palm-sized seals appeared around the trunk of the tree, and from each of them appeared an extremely thin golden rope, which was still slowly twisting.
As Li Bufan shouted, "Beam!" ”
Four ropes flew towards the trunk almost simultaneously, "Whoosh! With a bang, the four ropes finally became entangled.
Time passed minute by minute, the rope was still the same as the beginning, glowing with golden light, binding the trunk, but Li Bufan had a different reaction, the fingertips of the sword fingers trembled slightly, at first it was just a finger, but later, the palms, wrists, and even arms, and even the whole body began to shake involuntarily slightly, Li Bufan stood in place and did not dare to move, for fear that if he moved, the rope would dissipate, he stared at the four ropes in front of him, his face was red, and some beads of sweat the size of mung beans oozed all over his body, I don't know that I thought that Li Bufan had just finished some strenuous exercise.
After a few breaths, the golden light of the rope began to be unstable, flickering and dimming, and even the rope itself began to disappear from time to time, which was very unstable.
It didn't take long for it to disappear once and never reappear.
After the rope disappeared, Li Bufan immediately collapsed to the ground, as if his backbone had been sucked away, and he looked extremely tired.
Although Li Bufan was very tired, his face was full of excitement and joy.
I didn't expect to successfully complete the Bunch God Spell for the first time.
The confidence that had been dispelled by the talisman making technique of the previous days had also recovered most of it at this time.
Although the golden rope summoned by Li Bufan just now was only the thickness of chopsticks, this was summoned by Li Bufan at one time, and he had never seen the specific cultivation method of this divine spell once before.
The Bundle Spell is based on control, and the thicker the golden rope it is, the more effective it is to control others.
The thickness of the rope is also related to the caster's realm and proficiency in this method.
There is still a certain gap between the rope that Li Bufan turned into and the one that he turned into, but it was already good to have such an effect on the first attempt.
It seems that his talent for spells is not as bad as he imagined, as for the matter of talisman making, he may indeed not be suitable, but in frustration, Li Bufan still does not plan to give up his efforts in talisman making, even if he spends more spirit stones, or time to figure it out, he has already identified it as his big hole card.
Thinking like this, Li Bufan was still practicing the Bunching Spell.
Standing up from the ground, he began to cast spells again, still pointing towards the trunk of the tree in front of him.
But this time was different from just now, Li Bufan recited the mantra several times in a row, but he didn't see any reaction.
This situation made Li Bufan stunned for a while.
It was okay at the beginning, why didn't it work this second time, Li Bufan was unwilling, and tried several times in a row, but all failed without exception, because every spell needs to consume spiritual power, so not only is it ineffective these few times, but Li Bufan also wastes time replenishing the aura in his body.
His spell casting moves, mantras, and even the operation of his spiritual power are exactly the same as the first time, but why can't he do it?
In the days that followed, Li Bufan cut the time spent on cultivation in half, and spent this time drawing talismans and practicing the Shu Divine Technique, and he delved into both of them, relisting their steps in a new book, and finally completely understood their theoretical foundations.
In the past, Li Bufan just followed the steps in their books and practiced step by step, but he didn't understand them from the very basics, so he went to work hard, but after he calmed down in the past few days, he found the essence of the practice of talisman making and bunching spells, not to operate blindly, but to focus more on the details in the process.
For example, the operation of the aura, the deviation of each movement, and even every breath when casting and drawing are carefully calculated.
Finally, after half a month, both ushered in a corresponding breakthrough!
He had finally drawn a low-level blast charm, even more powerful than the one he had used in the first place, and the Bunching Charm had also improved dramatically, from the thickness of the chopsticks at the beginning, to the present one
The thickness of the thumb has increased, and at the same time, the control of the Bunch Spell has become more and more proficient, and the time limit has been extended to half an hour.
Li Bufan jumped up from the ground, at least his efforts were not in vain after all, and the spirit stones were not wasted.
