Chapter 6: Uncle Li

It stands to reason that talismans are so difficult to make, and there should be very few talismans, but in fact, among the four popular professions, the number of talismans is the largest.

This is because there are so many types of runes, and each one is made differently. Even if a talisman master who has reached a very high level in refining certain talismans, when making another kind of talisman, although he dare not say that the success rate is extremely low as that of ordinary novices, it is not much better.

As a result, the vast majority of talismans are only skilled at crafting a limited number of talismans.

After Zhao Di got this information, he felt that he had a certain opportunity. Because he was versatile in his previous life, especially when he was studying, he was especially fond of drawing and painting!

"Isn't it just about drawing a few messy symbols, I'm sure I can draw them!"

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Zhao Di quickly made up his mind to become a self-reliant junior talisman maker.

To make a talisman, you must first learn the corresponding spell, there is no doubt about it.

The Jian family has a special elder who is responsible for teaching children above the third level of the Qi refining period how to use some basic Five Elements spells.

Zhao Di had the opportunity to learn spells a few years ago, but he felt that although those tricks were gorgeous and powerful, they did not help his own cultivation. If he had enough time, he would definitely be willing to learn a few practical spells, but at that time, he practiced diligently for seventeen or eighteen hours a day, so how could he have time to practice spells again.

Now that he had paused his hard work, time was finally available. It's just that I have to learn a few spells in a year, and I have to try to practice making talismans, but I don't know if it's too late. Zhao Di was not sure about this, and he could only do his best.

He had heard that Jian Kun, who had excellent cultivation qualifications, had also spent three months learning the two simplest spells back then. If Zhao Di's talent for cultivating spells was as bad as his spiritual root qualifications, I was afraid that he might not be able to learn a spell in a year.

Zhao Di came to the "Chuan Gong Pavilion" with apprehension. This is a large courtyard hundreds of zhang wide, the furnishings in the courtyard are very simple, except for a small hexagonal pavilion in the center, there is a small pond in the eastern corner, that is, stones of various shapes and sizes scattered everywhere on the ground.

In the pavilion, a square-faced middle-aged monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes was explaining some of the techniques and mysteries of the "Fire Snake Technique", and three seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenagers sat around the square-faced monk, listening carefully, and no one paid attention to Zhao Di's arrival.

The "Fire Snake Technique" is an intermediate spell of the Qi Refining Period that can only be mastered by monks above the seventh or eighth level of the Qi Refining Period, and it is not Zhao Di's goal today at all, but Zhao Di also stood aside quietly with interest, listening carefully, and did not dare to disturb the slightest.

This square-faced monk was one of the several Jian family monks who were responsible for teaching the basic spells of the Five Elements, but his surname was not Jian, but his surname was Li, and Zhao Di and the children called him Uncle Li.

It is said that this Uncle Li was not originally a monk of the Jian family, but a loose cultivator without sect and no sect, and when he was young, he met a female monk of the Jian family by chance, and the two hit it off at first sight, and soon became a double cultivation partner, and together they participated in the road of cultivating immortals, and Uncle Li also came to the Jian family. It's a pity that Uncle Li's partner unfortunately fell during a family mission, and since then, Uncle Li has been disheartened and difficult to continue his cultivation, so he stayed in the Jian family to teach his descendants to spend the rest of his life.

This Uncle Li's reputation is excellent among the younger generations. Not only does he have a deep and unique understanding of the basic Five Elements Spells, but he is also very patient, always able to demonstrate over and over again, until the juniors can understand and use them, and he never scolds the juniors. Every time Uncle Li appeared in the Chuan Gong Pavilion, there were always many people who went to listen to the lecture.

Zhao Di just knew that Uncle Li was on duty in the Chuangong Pavilion today, so he deliberately rushed there. He also deliberately chose the afternoon when there were fewer people, but he didn't expect that there were still three other teenagers there.

After Uncle Li finished explaining a paragraph, the three teenagers asked some more questions, and Uncle Li also answered them in detail one by one.

After more than two hours, the three teenagers reluctantly bid farewell to Uncle Li and went back to practice.

Before leaving, one of the teenagers recognized Zhao Di and teased him: "Yo, this is not the five root brothers, you also have to learn spells, don't waste too much time on our Uncle Li." ”

Rao Yi has more than 30 years of experience in Zhao Di, and after hearing this ridicule, his face is still slightly red.

Uncle Li didn't care, and after asking about Zhao Di's spiritual root and surname, he also encouraged Zhao Di: "Learning spells is not the same as cultivating spiritual power, the former is how to use spiritual power, and the latter is how to gather spiritual energy and transform it into one's own spiritual power." Generally speaking, the use of spells makes perfect with practice, and it can be mastered with a lot of practice, and it has little to do with the spiritual root caste. As long as you make up for it, you can quickly master one or several low-level spells. As for the spells above the intermediate level in the Qi refining period, your cultivation is not enough, and you don't have enough spiritual power to use, so you can't learn it yet. What spell do you want to learn now?You have all five spirit roots, and you can learn the five elemental low-level spells, but I suggest you start with the simplest fireball technique, and it is more appropriate to work your way up. ”

"Thank you Uncle Shi for your encouragement, according to what Uncle Shi said, my nephew started with the Fireball Technique. Zhao Di has been in Jian's house for so long, and it is rare to hear someone talk to him without ridicule, and he is a little moved in his heart.

It seems that Uncle Li's character is really as good as everyone says.

Next, Zhao Di began to practice the fireball technique under the guidance of Uncle Li. This Uncle Li first briefly explained the method of using the spiritual power in the dantian, and then recited the method of the fireball technique.

This mantra is not very long, and Zhao Di memorized it firmly after listening to it carefully.

Then Uncle Li asked Zhao Di to go back and start practicing, and explained that if he had any doubts, he could come to him at any time.

Zhao Di thanked Uncle Li, and after returning to his quiet room, he couldn't wait to start practicing the fireball technique according to the mantra.

He easily mobilized a trace of spiritual power in the dantian, and ran to the fingertips of his right index finger through some meridians of his body according to the requirements of the mantra, but it was difficult to say that the spiritual power was released from the fingertips.

After trying more than a dozen times in a row, Zhao Di felt that his spiritual power had been consumed a lot, and he was a little tired, so he didn't dare to try more, so he calmed down and meditated overnight before he could recover his spiritual power.

In the next few days, Zhao Di kept trying to force the spiritual power out of his body from his fingertips according to the mantra, but it was always difficult to do so. In addition to practicing, he meditated and rested every day, seven or eight days a day. When he was getting more and more frustrated and was about to give up practicing and was about to go to Uncle Li for advice, a random practice had some changes.

He clearly felt a trace of spiritual power rush out of his fingertips, forming a small spatial fluctuation above his fingertips, and then with a "z-la", small flames appeared as if the air nearby was ignited. Although this small flame only lasted for a few breaths before the spiritual power was exhausted and disappeared, it still surprised Zhao Di a lot, and he practiced spells more diligently.

I don't know if this accident opened Zhao Di's mind, and his future practice became smoother and smoother, and he was able to light a large or small flame almost every time. Finally, when he had been practicing the fireball technique for almost a month, Zhao Di successfully released a complete small fireball, although it was only more than an inch in diameter, it also marked that he had finally mastered this spell.

The first spell only took a month to practice, although it was not earth-shattering, but it also frightened many people who looked down on Zhao Di.

After hearing about this, Uncle Li redoubled his praise for Zhao Di, and often used his example to encourage those juniors with poor qualifications.

For a while, Zhao Di also became the object of everyone's verbal conversation, and some people said that although his spiritual root was extremely poor, he might have a high talent in cultivating spells. Of course, this talk only appeared for a short time, and was soon replaced by the astonishing progress of some of the talented juniors within the family.

Only Zhao Di himself knows where he has any talent, at most he can only be regarded as ordinary. When others learn spells, they all practice spells while cultivating during the Qi refining period, and they will not completely stop practicing and practice a spell wholeheartedly like him. Although he has only been practicing for a month, he will only practice more often than others, and by no means less than others.
