In today's world, the vast majority of Talisman Masters can only rely on themselves to refine Talisman Ink.
Therefore, talisman ink is the most important resource among all types of talisman masters.
Each sect or force must have a lot of talismans stored in it for disciples to learn and use on a daily basis.
Under this situation, even if Zhou Yan got the talisman ink, he might not be able to afford it, let alone make talisman paper.
"The talisman is really troublesome."
Frowning and thinking hard, Zhou Yan had no choice but to find another way.
"By the way, the Talisman Masters Association must have collected a lot of precious talisman papers." Zhou Yan thought to himself: "If you go there to try your luck, you might be able to find talisman ink."
The Talisman Masters Association has magnificent buildings and covers a vast area. It is distributed throughout the city and is full of pavilions, carved railings and jade inlays.
"I heard that the Talisman Masters Association has an underground fire storehouse that stores a large amount of talismans."
"Hey, that's a good place. If I have a chance, I'll definitely go and check it out."
While thinking about it, Zhou Yan stepped forward and arrived at the Talisman Masters Association.
This is a three-story building with luxurious and magnificent exterior decoration, giving it a rich and wealthy appearance.
Zhou Yan stood at the door, but was stopped by two guards and was not allowed to set foot.
"Brothers, my name is Zhou Yan, and I am a newcomer to the Talisman Master Association. This is a greeting card. Please inform me."
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
Zhou Yan took out the greeting card and handed it over. Zhou Yan was smiling and polite.
"Newcomer?" The guard looked at Zhou Yan with a hint of disdain: "Aren't you clear about the rules for recruiting newcomers to the Talisman Master Association?"
"Newcomers must undergo strict assessment and can only be assessed after they are confirmed to be correct."
"Assessment?" Zhou Yan was startled, and then he understood that the Talisman Masters Association is indeed a large commercial organization and is very rigorous in its work.
"You go back and wait for notification."
The guard said coldly: "If there is no notice, I advise you not to waste your time."
The Talisman Masters Association always pays attention to fairness when recruiting people. If you fail to pass the review, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain.
Hearing this, Zhou Yan shrugged, turned and left.
Since the guard was resolute, Zhou Yan had no choice but to return to the shop and study the turtle shell talisman.
…
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
On this morning, the sun was shining, the air was fresh and pleasant, the spring breeze was blowing, and everything was revived.
"Huh~"
After taking a deep breath, breathing in, and opening his eyes, Zhou Yan felt energetic and energetic, as if he had been reborn.
For two months, Zhou Yan practiced diligently day and night, and his level of talisman skills improved by leaps and bounds. He was quite successful. Especially in drawing talisman paper, he was already proficient in it and was familiar with it.
"Pa~"
With your finger pointed, a piece of talisman paper was instantly formed, overflowing with color, like a crystal clear gem, emitting a misty and faint light.
"Huh? The speed of the talisman condensation has slowed down..."
Zhou Yan frowned slightly, observed carefully, and finally saw clues. The speed at which the talisman paper was condensing was getting slower and slower, as if he was stuck in a quagmire, struggling to move forward.
"Could it be that this is my first try and I haven't mastered the trick?" Zhou Yan guessed.
Talisman masters, when drawing talisman paper, pay attention to using the power of the talisman array to communicate the aura of heaven and earth, as well as various materials, and integrate them into one to produce effects.
However, now, Zhou Yan felt that there was an inexplicable force inside the talisman that was repelling his spiritual energy.
"what to do?"
Zhou Yan frowned and pondered. After thinking for a long time, a crazy idea came to his mind.
"Try to see if you can use the power of your soul to penetrate the talisman and make it change its mind."
"Huh~"
With his thoughts moving slightly, Zhou Yan held his breath and concentrated, urging the power of his soul to spread along the talisman paper, all the way to the end of the talisman paper.
Soon, Zhou Yan noticed that at the end of the talisman paper, there was a mass of dark dirt, extremely sticky, like a gel.
"What is this?"
"Could this be the secret of the talisman?"
Stunned, Zhou Yan was surprised and delighted. He immediately suppressed his excitement and silently activated the power of his soul, being careful along the way to avoid disturbing the dirt.
After a moment, a wisp of soul power quietly eroded away the dirt, turned into a thin line, and penetrated.
Suddenly, the dirt trembled, burst into bright light, and filled the air with circles of ripples, expanding in all directions.
At the same time, Zhou Yan felt that the power of his soul was blocked by an invisible force and was unable to move even an inch.
"Oops, the power of the soul has been counterattacked..."
Zhou Yan's heart skipped a beat. The power of the soul was spiritual power. It was a soul attack technique and was extremely dangerous.
If anyone is slightly careless, the power of his soul will be damaged, and in severe cases, he may even become an idiot and a useless person.
Fortunately, Zhou Yan's soul was strong and he could barely stay awake.
However, under the impact of dirt, the soul power is retreating steadily and is in danger.
"how so……"
"I just learned the art of runes, and I haven't even learned the basic runes yet, so I'm about to become a fool..."
Zhou Yan was so sad and angry that he couldn't help crying. This was so unlucky.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, dark clouds surged, lightning thundered, and a heavy rain fell.
In an instant, heavy rain fell, making it difficult to open one's eyes.
Suddenly, Zhou Yan's eyes lit up, his vision gradually became clearer, and he found himself in a gloomy cave.
In the gloomy cave, there are long ropes hanging, and at intervals, there is a rune lamp, burning faintly, releasing dim light, driving away evil and filthy things around.
"Huh……"
Looking up, Zhou Yan was surprised to find that hanging on the long ropes, there were corpses tied to each other. They were skinny, skinny, and looked miserable.
After taking a few glances, Zhou Yan was startled and quickly moved his gaze away from the corpses, sweating on his forehead.
Originally, Zhou Yan thought that these corpses were the ghosts who had died here over the years.
After all, the air of resentment in Wuling City is extremely strong. I don’t know how many souls of grievances have been buried. If they accumulate for a long time, resentful spirits will inevitably be born.
Unexpectedly, after careful observation, Zhou Yan discovered that these corpses were not alone, but were all composed of human beings.
"No wonder, dead bodies are common in Wuling City. It's possible that someone killed them and then dumped them in the wilderness so that they would never be reincarnated!"
At the thought of this, Zhou Yan's spine felt chilly, his pores exploded, and fear arose in his heart.
"How cruel!"
Gritting his teeth, Zhou Yan cursed angrily.
"Who did this?"
Zhou Yan roared, wishing he could cut the murderer into pieces, but he quickly calmed down.
"Well, there's no point complaining now, let's solve the current dilemma first."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yan calmed down and thought about countermeasures.
"The power of the soul is exhausted and the talisman cannot be condensed, so I can only rely on myself."
After pondering for a while, Zhou Yan made up his mind, immediately sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and rested, preparing to rest and recover before making further calculations.
Suddenly, the mountains shook and the ground shook, deafening, as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping in.
A dazzling electric light pierced the sky and illuminated the surroundings, reflecting a scene that was shocking.
