Chapter 93 Talisman Zheng Fa felt alienated from most people. Almost all the people who came to attend the class were new disciples. Because of their experiences on the ship, they were quite close to Zheng Fa. But after Senior Brother Zhuang's words, they felt a little dissatisfied. This is of course influenced by Senior Brother Zhuang’s attitude. But more than that, people were dissatisfied with the special treatment Zheng Fa received. During the few days in Jiushan Sect, almost everyone has figured out how precious spiritual materials are, and they also understand the value of Zheng Fa's extra resources. For example, nowadays, most people only have three pieces of talisman paper on their stools - that is to say, there are only three pieces of talisman paper provided for free. What this roomful of people uses is less than what Zheng Fa uses in a month. What is worrying is not the scarcity but the inequality. ……
Senior Brother Zhuang didn't seem to care about this somewhat strange atmosphere. He stood up and said to everyone, "Talisman paper is not easy to come by, I hope you will cherish it. Don't start writing now, you can start after I finish talking." As he spoke, he picked up the talisman pen and began to draw talismans on the talisman paper: "Pay attention to my posture and hands, release your spiritual consciousness, and observe the changes in the talisman in the void." “When drawing a talisman, the hand, the eye, and the spirit must be unified. The hand and the eye should be in sync, and the eye and the spirit should be in sync! The pen cannot stop, and it must be completed in one go!” As Senior Brother Zhuang's pen strokes rose and fell, some talismans in the space began to gather on his talisman paper. A golden armor talisman appeared under his pen. "The difficulty of drawing talismans is not in drawing, but in recognizing them!" Senior Brother Zhuang put down his brush and said to everyone, "Talisman images and spiritual awareness are the foundation of the way of talismans!" "Brother, I heard that talisman masters are divided into grades. How are they distinguished?" The expressions of the others also became expectant, and they seemed to be more interested in this. Senior Brother Zhuang thought for a moment and said, "It is actually inaccurate to say that talisman masters are divided into grades. It is basically the grade of the talisman you draw." "Then how do we determine the rank of the talisman?" Senior Brother Zhuang pointed to the golden armor talisman on his low table and said, "This one of mine is a Xuan-grade talisman." "A talisman is actually a spell stored in talisman paper." He continued, "The grade of the talisman is determined by its power. For example, my golden armor talisman can defend against a full-strength attack from a Foundation Establishment cultivator. This is a Xuan-grade talisman." "The yellow-grade talisman is equivalent to the power of a spell of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage." "The Xuan-grade talisman corresponds to the foundation-building stage, and the Di-grade talisman corresponds to the golden elixir stage. It corresponds like this." "Where is the Tianpin Talisman?" someone asked curiously. "I don't know how to draw a Heavenly Grade Talisman. Almost everyone who can draw a Heavenly Grade Talisman is at the Nascent Soul stage." Senior Brother Zhuang paused, glanced at Zheng Fa and said, "I said almost because Senior Sister Zhang can do it too." …… After a brief explanation, Senior Brother Zhuang asked them to start trying to draw the Golden Armor Talisman by themselves.
"Don't draw on the talisman paper at the beginning. Practice a few times on a blank paper first." As if afraid that they would waste time, Senior Brother Zhuang gave them a few more reminders. After saying this, he walked down to the hall and began to instruct the new disciples one by one on their postures. When he walked to Zheng Fa's side, he didn't show anything unusual. He just helped Zheng Fa adjust the angle of his forearm and then walked away. Zheng Fa drew the Golden Armor Talisman once or twice on paper, and suddenly realized that the art of talismans was really suitable for him! According to Zheng Fa's understanding, drawing talismans is actually similar to making bombs. Your spiritual awareness and understanding of runes determine your ammunition capacity - the stronger your spiritual awareness, the more runes you can see, the more runes you recognize, and the more runes that will be attracted to you. As for spiritual power, it is roughly equivalent to the amount of gunpowder you currently have in stock. Drawing a golden armor talisman by himself consumes almost one-third of the spiritual power in his body, but this does not affect the power of the talisman, it only affects the number of talismans Zheng Fa draws. In other words, although they are both in the Qi Refining Stage, they can only draw the same number of talismans in a day, but the power of the talismans made by Zheng Fa will be higher than that of others. In this regard, a more appropriate metaphor might be physical strength and craftsmanship. The same physical strength but different craftsmanship will produce different works. After giving them some instructions, Senior Brother Zhuang walked out of the room, apparently letting them practice freely. Han Qi walked to Zheng Fa's seat and whispered, "Today it's Senior Brother Zhuang... You are really unlucky." Zheng Fa asked, "What happened to Senior Brother Zhuang?" "Brother Zhuang... how should I put it? He should be in the Discipline Hall instead of the Talisman Pavilion." Han Qi looked strange. "He is a man who is very particular about rules and not about relationships. He has offended many people. But actually, we like him very much." "Why?" Zheng Fa couldn't understand. "You also know the recent trend in the Immortal Sect. In order to cultivate talented disciples, it is becoming increasingly difficult for us low-level disciples." Han Qi explained: "Brother Zhuang, it seems that he used to be an imperial censor or something in the mortal world. Anyway, he had a bad temper and didn't do very well. Later, when he entered the Immortal Sect, he still had the same temper, and it was even more irritable." Zheng Fa nodded: "He hates geniuses?" "That's not the case. His idea is that no reward can be given without merit. Even if one is a genius, the reward standard should be the same as ours." Han Qi sighed, "And he also said that the rarer the spiritual materials are, the more the superiors should not give them indiscriminately, otherwise people will be dissatisfied and the immortal gate will be restless." "..." Zheng Fa nodded and understood Brother Zhuang's thoughts a little. “Speaking of which, if it weren’t for Senior Sister Zhang, this person would probably be in a very miserable situation inside the sect.” "Senior Sister Zhang?" "His attitude easily offends people, and those he offends are all important people. Someone wanted to cause trouble for him before, but it was Senior Sister Zhang who saved him." Han Qi frowned again and said, "But there is one thing that is very strange. In the past few months, Senior Brother Zhuang should not be the one to talk about the Talisman Day." "..." Zheng Fa glanced outside the door. He didn’t know whether Senior Brother Zhuang had any problem with him. But Senior Brother Zhuang’s coming today was probably arranged by someone who had a grudge against him. Outside the door, Senior Brother Zhuang watched a man slowly approach, bowed and said, "Hello, Senior Brother Li." Although he was humble, his face was calm and he didn't seem enthusiastic. "Brother Zhuang, although we belong to two different factions, we don't have to be so cold every day." Brother Li laughed and said, "I heard that a big Buddha came today."
"..." Senior Brother Zhuang did not speak, but just listened to Senior Brother Li continue: "Number one in ten thousand years, haha, he got the same quota as us right after he entered the sect. In the future, I'm afraid that the spiritual materials of your lineage will have to be used by him first!" "Brother, why do you have to learn to gossip like a woman and stir up discord here? You are such a mean person." "Ok?" "Brother Li, do you dare to say this in front of Sister Zhang?" Brother Zhuang said coldly, "Since we know that we belong to two different branches, Brother Zheng has Sister Zhang to teach him and us to guide him, so it is not your turn to comment." "you!" …… "The brothers are discussing talismans again!" Han Qi exclaimed and pointed outside the door. Zheng Fa saw that Brother Zhuang, who had been dressed neatly just now, was rolling up his sleeves, swinging his arms quickly, throwing out several talismans in his hands, and fighting passionately with another man. "No, this is called a theory in the sect?" (End of this chapter)
