Chapter Twenty-Seven: But start the spell from scratch
Next, except for going out for a spin every once in a while, Fang Zhuo almost silently stayed in his stone house to ponder the general outline of the talisman and the spirit devouring technique.
The Spirit Devouring Technique was very different from the exercises practiced by cultivators now, not only was it extremely slow to enter the realm, but also because of its uniqueness, Fang Zhuo didn't have anything to refer to. After accumulating a little spirit stone, he also tried to see a few Hongdian Pavilion's Exercise Jade Slips. Limited to his vision, Fang Zhuo had no way to judge these exercises, but he could see that the Spirit Devouring Technique was very different from these modern techniques.
Regarding this, Fang Zhuo could only guess that this was due to the fact that the things recorded in the General Outline of the Fu Gong were too old.
As for the basic runes, he had studied more than a dozen by now. The basic runes listed in the first half of the general outline of the runes were only the five element runes, and there were hundreds of them, and with his current divine sense, it was impossible to study them one by one. After his research and mastery of the basic runes improved slightly, a new page was opened, and the general outline of the runes provided a portion of the basic runes.
The so-called basic runes are spells formed by simply combining basic runes. These spells are very simple and easy, and relatively low-nature. According to the classification in the book, the composition of basic runes is generally no more than three, and the spells that are combined with more runes are not basic runes, but low-level runes.
Talismans, this is just the name of the rune general, after Fang Zhuo compared the rune general outline with the current cultivator's books, he thought that the so-called rune is also the spell that the current cultivator said.
According to the general outline of the runes, the core of all spells is runes!
Whether it is refining, alchemy, magic circle, or attack and defense, the various spells used in these categories are actually composed of basic runes. It's just that the basic runes can eventually appear in countless changes after different proportions and delineations, and the power and functions they display have also become varied.
Fang Zhuo didn't know anything about cultivation, and the first thing he came into contact with was the Fu Zheng General Outline, so he easily accepted this point of view. So, since the rune is the core of everything, then having the general outline of the rune is like having a core treasure, if you don't study and work hard, wouldn't you be too sorry for the Xuanyuan bloodline in your body?
It's not hard to make up your mind, but it's not that simple to actually do. First of all, Fang Zhuo studied the basic runes and discovered an astonishing fact! Just these basic runes that he could see now, if they were combined according to the complex proportional method, they could combine countless basic runes!
It seems that I need to master and learn, and the amount is amazing!
However, for Fang Zhuo, who has been immersed in the sea of books all year round, the pressure is not so terrible.
The basic talisman would be the foundation of his own cultivation realm, and it was a crucial first step in Fang Zhuo's planning, so he definitely couldn't relax. Fang Zhuo was now practicing the basic talisman every day, mastering several of the most common spells in the cultivation realm.
Fortunately, the spiritual power fluctuations generated by these small spells were very weak, and under Fang Zhuo's extreme suppression, plus he was in mid-air, his practice did not attract the attention of others.
A small ball of flame suddenly appeared in Fang Zhuo's fingertips. Fang Zhuo looked at this small flame and couldn't help but feel a little distracted. When I think back to the first time I condensed the flame, the surprise and joy in my heart can be said to be incomparable. At that time, I pondered carefully for several days about the question of why such a hot flame would not burn my fingers.
A fire rune, plus the simplest burst rune, makes up a fireball spell. This spell shoots out under the control of the Divine Sense, and then bursts open upon hitting the target, creating a certain explosive impact and flame burn effect. Seal this basic rune into a piece of rune paper with the cooperation of the spirit induction technique, the spirit control technique and the spirit sealing formula, and then add a divine sense attraction rune, which is the simplest fireball spell rune.
Making talismans was Fang Zhuo's first goal.
However, Fang Zhuo was also hesitating now. This is because the manufacturing method of the talisman recorded in the general outline of the talisman is very different from the talisman making method in the modern cultivation world.
In ancient times, people used monster leather that matched the attributes of the spell, cut it into small pieces of suitable size, and then punched three basic runes of "flat", "absorption" and "stability" on it, which made a rune base. Runes are supplies used to make runes. At that time, people's runes were drawn on such runes. The more high-level demon beasts are, because they have better absorption of spiritual power, the more powerful the talismans made of their leather.
Of course, there are more advanced talismans, and their rune bases are made of jade. Some jade with unique properties make talismans even more powerful. Moreover, this rune base can be used forever. As long as you replenish its spiritual power in time after using it, the talisman on the jade rune base will always be able to be reused.
At that time, the creation of talismans did not require the blood of demon beasts and rune spiritual liquid to delineate, and the spiritual power was sealed purely with the spirit sealing technique.
However, modern cultivators make runes from specialized rune paper, rune pens, and rune spiritual liquid, which is spiritual ink. Rune paper made of various spiritual grasses has a good compatibility and carrying capacity for spiritual power. It's just that after the ancient rune is used, it is very likely that the leather of the demon beast can be recycled, but the current rune paper is a one-time consumable.
One of the most critical places is the rune aura. Ancient monks made talismans to draw talismans through the spiritual power in the space where the divine consciousness gathered. In this way, there is basically no need to use the spiritual power storage in the cultivator's body. However, the current rune sketch needs to be introduced with the rune spirit liquid made of the corresponding demon beast blood and various elixir juices, dansha and other materials, and the spiritual power of the cultivator is directly injected into the rune paper through the rune pen.
Fang Zhuo didn't know what caused the huge difference between the ancient and modern talisman manufacturing methods. Therefore, after mastering the basic talisman, he wanted to use two different talisman manufacturing methods to test it as soon as possible, and compare which of the two is superior or inferior.
The Divine Consciousness slowly induced, and a new basic rune was slowly outlined in the Sea of Consciousness, and then appeared in the fireball on the fingertips. This rune is the burst rune. The basic fire rune and the burst rune slowly approached, eventually stabilizing at an extremely close distance in the core of the fireball.
Beads of sweat slowly oozed from Fang Zhuo's face. The Burst Rune and the Flame Rune had to keep a stable distance, otherwise they would explode at the touch of a button! Fang Zhuo didn't know how many times Lu Dao had suffered a loss on this. Now when he cultivates in the stone room, he takes off his robe and puts it in the jade box. Repeated spells that went out of control and constantly destroyed his clothes were also a big challenge for his current finances.
The small fireball flew out under Fang Zhuo's divine sense, and then exploded on the stone wall, turning into a ball of flames. However, the fireball was small, and the scale and power of the explosion were naturally pitiful. It wasn't that Fang Zhuo couldn't make a more powerful fireball technique, it was just that he didn't want to alarm the people in Fang City.
On his right hand, he continued to release the basic runes. Fang Zhuo's left hand was not idle either. A jade plaque was held in his left hand, and Fang Zhuo's divine sense continued to wash over this jade plaque, and the soft divine consciousness filled the inside and outside of the jade plaque.
