Guarding the mortal world for 300 years, I am invincible in the world

Chapter 17 Characters, Talents (22 New Books for further reading)
The great way exists forever, but it is difficult to find it, and it is difficult to ascend to the blue sky.

Even if you step into the path, if you want to practice well, there are countless hardships and dangers.

How can there be any quiet and inactive immortal in the world?
They are all just practitioners who are struggling and seeking a share of longevity.

The road is difficult and dangerous, if there is no power to protect the road, it will not be far after all.

Swordsmanship.

Taoism.

Talisman.

array.

Elixir.

magic weapon.

These are the Taoist practice of immortal practitioners.

If the practice of protecting the way is not enough, then you will die halfway.

But on the other hand, when the method of protecting the Dao is cultivated to a high level, it seems to be able to rob other people's resources and rob other people's way.

Cultivation in the world is a closed loop after all.

In fact, in Zhang Li's view, martial arts practice is just a way to protect the way.

Martial arts cannot lead to longevity, so what's the use of cultivating to a high level?
Perhaps, the seniors who founded the path of martial arts at the beginning didn't have enough longevity to comprehend the path of martial arts and longevity?

Why don't you study martial arts when you have free time?
Don't worry, there's plenty of time anyway.

After reading several talisman practice classics, Zhang Li put away the jade slips, calmed down, and took out a stack of pale yellow talisman papers.

Eight inches long and three inches wide, it is made of spiritual grass from the cultivation world and can carry the power of talismans.

This kind of blank talisman paper chapter is filled with a ten square storage bag.

Anyway, this thing is very cheap in the practice world.

What is really precious is the kind of talisman paper on which top-quality talismans are drawn, which is sold on paper.

A sapphire-colored talisman pen, made of sapphire and wind wolf hair, is considered an ordinary talisman pen.

There is a large bundle of this kind of talisman.

A better talisman is packed in a box, not bundled.

The cinnabar mixed with the blood of the wind spirit wolf, the ordinary ink used to draw the talismans.

There are several barrels in the storage bag of this thing.

The best cinnabar is packed in jade boxes.

Spread out the talisman paper on the table, take a posture, dip the talisman pen into the prepared cinnabar, Zhang Li slightly closed his eyes, and began to think about the talisman classics he saw just now.

The talisman, using its own true energy as a guide, seals the power of half-formed Taoism into the talisman paper.

It's a labor-intensive job.

What Zhang Li does not lack now is aura.

Thinking back for a moment, the ink pen landed decisively on the blank talisman paper.

The true essence travels through the meridians and pours into the tip of the pen along the sapphire-colored tube.

It can be sensed that these true essences are divided, transformed by the power in the cinnabar ink, and printed on the talisman paper.

This is similar to the casting process.

The tip of the pen swims, and the true essence in the meridians surges.

A talisman slowly took shape.

"laugh--"

The tip of the pen trembled slightly, the true essence scattered, and the talisman paper in front of him turned into a faint flame and burned up.

The painting is useless.

"Let's just say, it's not that easy."

Not only was Zhang Li not annoyed when a piece of talisman was discarded, but he felt much more at ease.

Those introductory classics say that at least a thousand pieces of talisman paper can be drawn before there is a possibility of a finished product.

I am the first one, so there is no reason for success.

If he is really such a genius, wouldn't it be a waste to hang out in the mortal world?

Gently changing a piece of talisman paper, he dipped in cinnabar ink again to draw simple runes.

Enthusiasm.

When he saw Zhu Yunshan again the next day, Zhang Li smiled and handed over a talisman.

"Talisman?"

Zhu Yunshan reached out to take it, his eyes fell.

"The pen is clumsy, too clumsy."

"True essence is not weak, but if you don't know the way of succession and transformation, it's a waste."

"Also, look at the cinnabar used so heavily, what a prodigal."

"Hey, look at the brush used here. It's really a failure. I don't know how to borrow it."

Shaking off the talisman paper in his hand, Zhu Yunshan complained sadly, but Zhang Li's complexion became more and more serious.

"You didn't draw this talisman, did you?" Zhu Yunshan looked at Zhang Li.

"Okay, I wish you, brother, really know this way." Zhang Li turned the conversation around, stretched out his hand to take back the commemorative Qingfeng Talisman that he had only painted, and then stood up.

"I also ask my brother to help me draw some talismans."

"Painting talisman?" Zhu Yunshan was taken aback for a moment, then immediately shook his head.

"This is the mortal world, the aura is cut off, and the power of the talisman depends entirely on the infusion of its own true essence."

Breaking his fingers, Zhu Yunshan said with regret on his face: "This matter is really thankless."

Indeed, without aura, one can only rely on infusion of one's own true energy. This method of drawing talismans is a waste of cultivation.

"Brother, it's useless to keep this cultivation, right?" Zhang Li stretched out his hand and pulled Zhu Yunshan to sit down in front of the long table.

"If not, would you return the spirit stone you borrowed from me first?"

"I'm afraid that if I don't take advantage of these few days to let you draw a few talismans to pay back the debt, I will lose my spirit stone when you go out and die outside."

These words made Zhu Yunshan suddenly angry.

"To draw a talisman is to draw a talisman, let you see—" Zhu Yunshan paused, then rubbed his hands together and said, "There is no paper talisman."

Zhang Li raised his hand and took out a stack of light yellow talisman paper from his sleeve and threw it on the table.

"The talisman paper made of Yunqing grass is still good, and it is not expensive to sell in the market."

Reaching out his hand to smooth out those talisman papers carefully, Zhu Yunshan whispered.

The expression in his eyes changed slightly, becoming more serious.

"As for the talisman pen, you don't want to use my own?"

"There is also cinnabar ink, don't say you don't have it."

After Zhu Yunshan said something, Zhang Li took out something.

Seeing that there was no lack of talisman drawing tools in front of him, Zhu Yunshan was a little stunned for a while.

"Tell me, have you already calculated?"

Holding the sapphire talisman pen in his hand, a hint of regret appeared on his face.

"In the world of writing, the avenue is invisible, and this life will be broken after all..."

After all, he broke his way and was relegated to the mortal world.

The tip of the pen lightly landed on the talisman paper. At that moment, Zhu Yunshan's breath subsided, as if he was a completely different person.

Zhang Li quietly watched the runes appear, and his face became more solemn.

"There is a way in heaven and earth, there is spirit in the brush, and in drawing talismans, what we seek is that spirituality."

"Don't stick too much to the classics and books, but observe the world."

"There are divine talismans and spiritual talismans in the world, which can control the world, attract wind and thunder, and control mountains and rivers."

Seemingly understanding Zhang Li's intentions, Zhu Yunshan explained in a low voice the method of drawing talismans while drawing talismans.

Zhang Li stood behind, moving his fingers lightly.

What is achieved on paper is ultimately shallow. Only by experiencing it personally and observing it with your own eyes can you truly understand the long way to go.

Half a day later, thirteen talismans of various kinds were placed on the table.

Zhu Yunshan breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his waist, and looked a little pale.

"No, I can't draw anymore."

"This old waist..."

Seeing Zhang Li looking up at him, Zhu Yunshan waved his hands and said: "I can't really draw anymore. On the second level of Qi training, I can draw thirteen talismans in half a day. There are not many in the entire Yunlan Taoist sect."

"If you paint again, your true energy will be exhausted, and your cultivation will be depleted—"

Before he finished speaking, he stopped.

Zhang Li held a spirit stone in his hand.

Reaching out to take the spirit stone, Zhu Yunshan grinned and said: "This one spirit stone is enough to recover the true energy, and I need to draw a talisman—"

Zhang Li held another spirit stone in his hand.

"Brother," Zhu Yunshan grabbed the spirit stone and laughed loudly: "Don't worry, bring as many talisman papers as you have, today I want to let you know what is extraordinary talent!"
