Chapter 153: The Way of Talisman Making

Ansula said, "A novice who is a beginner in talisman making, it is common to fail a thousand times, if the qualification is a little worse, the production of 10,000 talismans may not be successful, so talisman making is called '10,000 difficulties'!"

She said, "Talisman making is a test of willpower, even if you have a high talent, you can only find inspiration in practice, and then accumulate many times of inspiration, and finally break through and succeed." ”

Hearing Ansula say this, Xu Dong couldn't help but stick out his tongue.

"For example, I memorized runes for two years before learning to make runes, and it took me 600 drawings to produce a semi-finished product during formal practice, and more than 1,000 drawings to succeed. ”

"Alas!" Xu Dong sighed.

"Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, this sentence is used to refer to the talisman maker, those top talisman makers, all of them have achieved something in their lifetime. ”

Ansula changed the subject, "To be honest, I already knew that you were a Thundercloud Spirit Root cultivator, but I didn't mean to help you, it's just that the 'Sand City Order' is too unfathomable, and if you want to practice it, you really can't do it." ”

Xu Dong was not surprised, she was a woman from the Dayue royal family, and she had never met, I don't know how she knew his spiritual root attributes, could she reflect any information from him?

"Indeed, there is a smell emanating from you, in the endless desert, this smell can travel far away, you know, because I am a pure-blooded Dayue woman, and my sense of smell is ten times more sensitive than that of ordinary people. ”

"The first time you entered the desert, I smelled your scent, a smell peculiar to the Thundercloud Spiritual Root, like a brand on you. ”

Xu Dong opened his mouth in surprise, he shrunk his nose, and a breath that was different from that of an ordinary girl poured into his nostrils, making him choke in his throat, and he couldn't help but think about it.

Ansula had a heart, she sensed the message transmitted by Xu Dong, and her face turned crimson all of a sudden, feeling that she was at a loss in front of this man.

In order to break this embarrassment, she picked up the talisman pen and drew ten talismans in a row on the paper to Xu Dong to demonstrate, she recited the incantation, and the ten talisman papers floated into the air one by one.

In the dimly lit room, the ten runes flew around the room, flying and flying, and the runes began to glow like fireflies......

Seeing that all the ten talismans she made were successful, Ansula's face showed a little self-satisfaction, and she asked Xu Dong to continue practicing, and she went to the bamboo forest to breathe fresh air by herself.

Xu Dong stayed alone in the room, he didn't squirm his eyes and looked at the air, trying to find something that would inspire him from the ten pieces of rune paper that were flying.

He found that the ten runes looked similar, but in fact, each of them had very different runes, some were very strong, some were extremely weak.

There were three runes with weak runes that only flew a few times before falling down automatically, and the light flames were quickly extinguished, while the other seven runes were still flying in the air.

Two of them are particularly powerful, with outstanding flight speed and light flames, and even make a "da-da!" sound of vibrating wings.

Xu Dong secretly marked the ten rune papers, and after the rune paper was recovered, he placed the ten rune papers on the ground in order from weak to strong according to the strength of the rune.

He used his divine sense to carefully observe these runes, carefully comparing and studying them one by one, to see what differences were between them, and what kind of blood existed in them.

After working hard for a long time, Xu Dong finally discovered that there were extremely subtle differences between them in these ten rune papers, and if he didn't use his divine sense, these differences would not be visible with the naked eye alone.

These materials used to practice talisman making are considered ordinary road goods, the paper is yellow surface paper, the ink is ground from graphite and dansha, and the pen is made of third-level demonic beast hair.

Supposedly with the same material, by the same person. Refers to Ansula. There shouldn't be much difference between the drawn rune paper, but why is the difference so big?

It's like people who grow up eating the same food, some are burly and strong, some are skinny, and the reason is that those who are skinny are not fully absorbed by the nutrients.

Turning these ready-made materials into rune paper, even if the same person makes it in the same way, there is actually a difference.

Xu Dong thought that there were not many variables in the talisman pen and the yellow table paper, and the most variable was "ink".

The ink is made of graphite and dansha, and no matter whether the ink is thick or not, the difference itself is not too great.

"Lotus Cave Immortal Records" says: In the process of making talismans, the person who makes the talisman needs to activate his own spiritual force field and infuse spiritual power into the talisman.

What substance is this spiritual power infused into? It will not be in pen and paper, the only thing that can absorb spiritual power is the "ink" made of graphite and dansha.

Magnetic field!magnetic field!magnetic field!magnetic field!

These two words flashed repeatedly on the screen of Xu Dong's brain.

The spiritual force field is also the magnetic field, and the magnetic field is omnipresent, in the body of living beings (i.e., the biological clock), between heaven and earth, and in the time and space that are constantly running.

He remembered that a few years ago, he had the Imperial Sword Master dragged to the barren meadow to intensify his training and comprehend the "Qimen Dunjia", and at that time he realized the role of magnetic fields.

Using the "magnetic field theory" to explain the talisman system is to magnetize graphite and dansha through its own physiological magnetic field, and form a magnetic field on the talisman paper to induce karmic changes in the vitality of heaven and earth.

To activate this physiological magnetic field, a special genetic talent is required, that is, the talisman spiritual root, and people who do not have the talisman spiritual root, even if they learn the method of making talismans, they cannot make the talisman they make have aura.

Throughout the way of talisman making, the talisman technique is the main practice of Zhengyi, and then there are three sects of talisman (called "three mountain talismans") for the Maoshan Shangqing faction, the Gesoap Mountain Lingbao faction, and the Longhu Mountain Heavenly Master Dao.

By extension, the spiritual root of the talisman needs to be inherited by the family, so in order to maintain this inheritance, the one who uses the talisman is usually not a monk.

The Quanzhen Dao without the use of talismans is a monk, and the Quanzhen Dao mainly cultivates the essence, qi, and spirit through the inner dan, forming the three transformations and the five qi dynasties, so as to produce the acquired supernatural powers.

Moreover, it is precisely because of the wandering effect of the magnetic field that the aura that can be sealed in the rune paper is limited, and the time for which the rune can be stored is very short.

Therefore, some talisman makers have to go to the scene to set up an altar to cast spells, and the most effective is to make talismans on the spot and use them immediately.

After all, the strength of the biomagnetic field of the human body is limited, and it is impossible to fully magnetize the graphite and dansha on the talisman, and the same person uses the same material to make the talisman, because the spiritual power infused is uneven, so the degree of magnetization of each rune paper is also different.

"A millimeter of miss, a thousand miles of difference", this can also explain why the ten rune papers made by Ansula are strong and some are weak.

After realizing this truth, Xu Dong practiced talisman making again to quit impetuousness and truly sink his heart into it.

He boldly changed the method that Ansula taught him, first regulating the yin and yang in his body, stimulating the internal force of his quasi-knotted Dan realm, and waiting for the internal force to stretch to a certain extent, and then start to write and make talismans.

When Xu Dong held the talisman pen, he used his divine sense to observe that countless wisps of spiritual power drilled out of the Baihui acupoint, ran along the right arm holding the pen, and soon poured into the end of the pen.

He dipped himself in ink, the tip of the pen fell on the yellow paper, the pen was very difficult, and the lines he drew were very heavy, and it took him a long time to draw this compound rune.

Somehow, Xu Dong was full of confidence in the newly drawn talisman, and he had a hunch that this talisman must be a success, not even a semi-finished product, but a direct finished product.

Because this talisman was infused with all his mental strength, like a cocoon, making this talisman caused the spiritual power in his body to be emptied, and his physiological functions were stretched to the limit.

Xu Dong found Ansula in the bamboo forest and handed her the talisman he had just drawn, "You can help me see, how is this talisman drawn?"

Ansula listened to the birds, the two little birds stood on the bamboo branches and chirped, she did not take the talisman paper, but waved her hand at him impatiently, "Don't make any noise with me, if you don't draw a hundred talismans, I don't bother to help you see them!"

Xu Dong said, "You really show me, I think this talisman must be a finished product." ”

Ansula said, "Don't daydream, it's impossible, no matter how good your qualifications are, you have to draw three or five hundred pictures first, and then you can't draw within five hundred." ”

Xu Dong was so anxious, "You don't believe that I can bet with you, if this talisman doesn't succeed, I don't complain how you punish me, if this one succeeds, you ......"

"If you don't succeed, I'll punish you for drawing a thousand, and if you succeed, I'll punish myself with a thousand." ”

Xu Dong said, "No! What's the use of you drawing a thousand sheets? This kind of low-grade and inferior character is worthless, and it doesn't waste paper and pen and ink in vain?"

"Then how do you want to punish me?"

"I'll punish you......" Xu Dong had been dull for so long in order to make this talisman just now, and now he wanted to relax, he joked, "I won't punish you, just ...... We cover a quilt when we sleep at night!"

Ansula's face was flushed with shame, and even a piece of her jade neck became purple and swollen, and she chased after Xu Dong, "You're bad!

Xu Dong Zhengse said, "Do you dare to bet? Don't you dare to bet, right? Girls are girls, and pure-blooded Dayue beauties are also girls!"

"Don't say it!" Ansula said angrily, "Bet on it, what are you afraid of?

On the one hand, Xu Dong's words provoked Ansula, on the other hand, she was angry that Xu Dong had tarnished the words "pure blood", and another reason was that she didn't believe that Xu Dong would succeed in making talismans, so she accepted Xu Dong's bet.

She took the rune paper in Xu Dong's hand, sighed towards it, recited the incantation, and then threw the rune paper into the air.

Ansula imagined that the rune paper would burst open, but the rune paper was alive, fluttering and walking through the bamboo forest, hitting the bamboo branches swaying, and the birds resting on the branches were startled.

Even in the daytime, you can see the rune paper emitting a glittering fluorescence, like fireflies flying in the night sky, for a long time, the aura on the rune paper was consumed, and it was taken back by Xu Dong.

"How is it? Is my talisman considered a success? It doesn't seem like there's anything worth talking about, right?" said Xu Dong triumphantly.

Ansura was still immersed in the scene of the rune paper flying, and it took a while to come back to her senses, she stared at Xu Dong with a look of surprise and puzzlement on her face.
