The way of the talisman is a method of incorporating the spiritual power of heaven and earth into special materials by means of sealing.

Whether it is rune paper or smelted rune shield materials, they are the carriers of the power of heaven and earth.

The talisman is like a lock, and through a specific technique, it can seal different amounts of force in it.

The caster's spiritual power is the key to unlock the seal, and as long as the spell is urged, the violent energy in the spell can be released to achieve the effect of attacking the enemy or defending.

The talisman shield refined by Zhang Qiang is a more complex existence in the talisman.

The rune shield requires the fusion of multiple materials, and before fusion, each material must be processed, which can be said to be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Unlike rune swords, which can use a unified standard rune paper, the material of the rune shield largely determines its characteristics and power.

Because of this, rune paper can be produced in large quantities, but the material of rune shield cannot.

In other words, runic swords can be bought everywhere, but runic shields are rare treasures, and once they appear, they will cause a rush.

Zhang Qiang prepared the materials for the three-point rune shield, which was the first time he had refined the rune shield.

Ren was resolute in his mind, but when he thought that there was only one beast soul of the second-level demon wolf, he was also apprehensive.

If it fails, it will be even more difficult to get another beast soul of the same kind.

And there is also a very important point, it is very clear in the method of sealing the spirit, if the source of the beast soul and the animal skin material are the same, the quality of the talisman shield refined will usually be one line higher.

But just now, when Zhang Qiang was hesitating, something happened that he didn't expect.

Xiao Yan Stick once again appeared out of his master's control, and one of the beast souls was unexpectedly integrated into a material he had newly refined.

And that beast soul was absorbed from that second-level demon wolf.

It is recorded in the method of sealing the spirit: "Once the beast soul is integrated into the material, it is necessary to draw runes as soon as possible to prohibit it, otherwise, the power of the beast soul will gradually dissipate, or even disappear......"

Zhang Qiang's face was very ugly, originally he was going to practice with ordinary materials first.

Just like refining the talisman sword, after mastering the refining method first and the success rate is guaranteed, he will use the materials of the second-level demon beast, this is his original plan.

However, Ji Lu couldn't catch up with the change, and he didn't have time to think about why Xiao Yan Stick had such a change, but he knew that if he delayed any longer, not only would he waste a valuable material, but even the only second-level beast soul would dissipate.

Zhang Qiang gritted his teeth: "Fight!"

With one move, the material fused with the second-level beast soul was rolled up with a spiritual light, and it fell steadily into Zhang Qiang's hands.

With a flip of his right hand, Zhang Qiang took out the talisman pen, dipped it in the blood of the demon beast essence mixed with it, and Zhang Qiang drew it stroke by stroke.

Refining talismans was a very special thing, and every time Zhang Qiang started doing this, his heart was extremely peaceful, and all the interference from the surrounding world world was excluded by him.

His eyes were fixed on the material in his hand without blinking, and the talisman in his right hand moved steadily and evenly, leaving one symbol after another on the material.

After reaching the end of the day, Zhang Qiang picked up the talisman pen in his hand, and then drew it in the center.

A turtle-like pattern slowly appeared on the talisman shield material, and after Zhang Qiang's talisman pen was slightly raised on the turtle's tail, he directly lifted the talisman pen and opened his mouth at the same time.

A flash of spiritual light entered, and it instantly disappeared into the talisman shield material in his hand, and then the spiritual light on the material flashed, and then dimmed......

At the same time, in the very center of the rune shield material, the lines on the mini turtle's back lit up, and then stabilized.

Zhang Qiang stared at the material in his hand, only to see that the material suddenly writhed, and after a few expansions, it turned into a shield, with a turtle pattern printed in the center, and the spirit was shining.

On the turtle's back, the spiritual light flows along the lines, and a pair of turtle eyes are even more flashing, which looks very spiritual.

"This ...... Could it be that it is finished?" Zhang Qiang felt that his throat was a little dry, and he was completely immersed in the work of drawing talismans before, without the slightest distraction.

It wasn't until now that I saw that the rune shield was fully formed, and I came to my senses.

"The first time you refined the talisman shield, it was so successful?" Zhang Qiang seemed to feel incredulous, and put the talisman shield on the palm of his hand to observe it carefully......

When he saw the vision of the turtle's back and turtle's eyes, his expression froze, and then he showed a very strange expression.

With his eyes rolling slightly, Zhang Qiang flipped out the jade slip that recorded the way of the talisman, and couldn't wait to put it towards the center of his eyebrows.

As soon as the divine consciousness was released, it instantly disappeared into the jade slip. At the same time, lines of text appeared in Zhang Qiang's mind.

After a meal, Zhang Qiang's eyes were bright and full of excitement.

"Yes, I didn't expect it to be accidentally refined into a pseudo-spirit weapon!" Zhang Qiang found the answer from the jade slip and whispered to himself.

In the end, the pseudo-spirit weapon is still a talisman, but it is different from the talisman.

The talisman has a fatal limit, once activated, it can only stare at the exhaustion of spiritual power and be completely scrapped.

However, the pseudo-spirit weapon can break this rule, and this higher-grade talisman can usually be used two or three times.

Not only that, but according to the records in the jade slips, the power of the pseudo-spirit weapon is usually one level higher than the power of the talisman. As for how much higher, it depends on the materials used in refining, as well as the level of the refiner itself.

In other words, if the spiritual power is not exhausted after the pseudo-spirit weapon is activated, it can be used again the next time it is against the enemy. This is almost equivalent to the characteristics of a spiritual weapon.

"It seems that the luck is really good, not only did he practice it into a talisman shield in one go, but he also practiced it into a rare pseudo-spirit weapon!" Zhang Qiang's mouth turned up slightly, and he couldn't let go of the newly refined treasure in his hand.

At this moment, Zhang Qiang's expression moved, and then he felt a shaking under his feet.

"Five Souls Training Heart Array!" Zhang Qiang instantly sensed the same as the guardian formation, and as soon as his body moved, he flashed out.

I saw a giant python several zhang long and as thick as one person, with its body flipping, and its tail pumping on the shield formed by the guardian formation from time to time.

After seeing the true face of the python demon, Zhang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just a first-level demon beast, it seems that it broke into the formation by mistake!"

What's special is that there is also a delicate girl dressed as a maid in front of the python demon.

I saw her combing two pigtails, melon seed face, wearing a floral cloth skirt, holding a green sword, and attacking the python demon from time to time.

A few feet behind the woman, there was another person leaning on the trunk of the tree, also a beautiful woman.

But I saw her apricot eyes and peach cheeks, her black hair draped down to her shoulders, dressed in gorgeous satin, and a phoenix-eyed golden hairpin on her head.

It's just that her noble face is unhealthy and fair, and she is obviously a wonderful beauty, but it makes people feel that her spirit has been drained...... At first glance, you can tell that there is a problem.

Zhang Qiang frowned and looked at the uninvited guest in front of him, the python demon did not take the initiative to attack the Five Souls Heart Training Array, but happened to enter the range of the formation when his body was shaking.

But although the python demon is only a first-level demon beast, if it is allowed to go on like this, the spirit stone that Zhang Qiang arranged in the base of the formation will be quickly consumed.

"Xiaohuan, force back the python demon, let's hurry up! These days are the time when the blood orchid blooms, and it will be troublesome to miss the flowering period!" said the woman leaning on the trunk of the tree.

"Yes, Miss!" The long sword in the hand of the woman trembling with the python demon shook, and the brush brushed out three swords in succession.

Taking advantage of the moment when the python demon was forced to retreat, the maid girl dodged and retreated, grabbed the "Miss" in her mouth, and disappeared into a jungle between the ups and downs of her body.

"Blood Orchid?" Zhang Qiang frowned, this flower was exactly what he wanted the most, if it weren't for the outbreak of the beast tide, he might have succeeded in getting this flower.

Thinking of the woman's pale face and blank eyes, Zhang Qiang whispered: "It seems that the soul is unstable, I don't know what kind of injury Lu Dao has suffered." It's really strange, that woman seems to have some identity, why is she still running around when she is seriously injured?"

As soon as he remembered that they were here for the Blood Orchid, Zhang Qiang cleaned up a little, then put away the Five Souls Heart Training Array, and chased after the two women silently.

Although this place is remote, there are few monsters, but there are only occasional fierce beasts.

The maid woman's sword was powerful, and it was more than enough to deal with the fierce beasts in the forest.

Zhang Qiang followed all the way, and sure enough, he heard that the two people in front of him were going to the Black Dragon Sect and wanted to ask the sect master for the blood orchid.

"Blood orchids are very rare, if I let them speak first, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to get ......" Zhang Qiang frowned slightly and groaned.

"But now that the Black Dragon Sect is surrounded by a tide of beasts, it is impossible for them to go up the mountain. Thinking of this, Zhang Qiang exhaled slightly.

Even if you go to the Black Dragon Sect, you must arrive first, as long as you explain the situation to the elders and obtain the identity of the core disciple, you still have a great chance to come and ask for the blood orchid.

"Xiaohuan, let's hurry up, it's been some time since the two Xuanyuan brothers came out, I'm worried that something will happen to them!" The woman was weak and weak, but she still barely moved forward, and even opened her mouth to urge the maids around her to speed up.

Zhang Qiang's heart tightened, and he secretly exclaimed, it turned out that they had already sent someone to the Black Dragon Sect first! If that was the case, he was afraid that they would be the first to attack.

With a roll of his eyes, Zhang Qiang had a plan, and at the moment he silently used the secret technique of changing his face by refining the body.

I saw that the muscles and bones on his face trembled, and then his muscles shifted, but with his breathing, his originally delicate face revealed a bit of roughness.

"Two young ladies, where are you going? You can't go any further!" Zhang Qiang changed his appearance slightly, walked around to the front of the two, and asked even more after meeting.

"Our young lady is sick and is going to the Black Dragon Sect to get the elixir!" the little maid seemed to have no scheming and said without thinking.

"Why did the gentleman say that he could not go any further?" said the pale-faced woman, as if it took a great deal of effort to say a word.

Zhang Qiang's expression remained unchanged, and he pointed to the direction of the Black Dragon Sect and said, "There is a beast tide over there, and all of them are demon beasts!" The Black Dragon Sect has stimulated the Guardian Formation, and now even their disciples can't enter or leave!"

"It turns out that you are worried about the beast tide! Don't worry, we have also heard the news of the beast tide, but the beast tide has faded three days ago!" The maid smiled and said something that made Zhang Qiang stunned.
