From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 27 Zishui Talisman
Zhuling is similar to consecration, both are rituals of inviting gods. The difference is that consecration is to bless the objects, while Zhuling is to invite gods to descend.

The normal spirit-retention ceremony has a long set of procedures. The most common one is the enshrinement in the temple. Regardless of the size of the statue, scriptures and mantras need to be placed inside.

This will make it easier for the gods to descend, and also prevent wandering ghosts from attaching themselves to the statues when the incense is abandoned, thereby deceiving passers-by.

This wedding candlestick is not a statue of a god, but an object that has been stained with incense. It does not need to be enshrined like a statue of a god, so there is no need to worry about the statue's shape being borrowed in the future.

Moreover, Yu Shuyang has already cultivated a divine statue that can descend to the heavens. He only needs to move it out of the spiritual platform and place it on the spiritual candlestick.

It is the Rat God's Festival, and Xu Su is on duty on that day, which brings a lot of auspicious events. Sacrifices and marriages are very auspicious, and it is in harmony with the divinity of the happy candlestick, making it even more convenient to operate.

Shinto magic tools are different from those for cultivating immortals. They do not require talismans to refine magic prohibitions, and they do not care about the Tiangang prohibitions and Disha prohibitions. It only depends on the size of the incense and the power of the vows.

The wedding candlestick had been stored for twenty years, and it was bound to lose the festive power it was stained with. Fortunately, Yu Shuyang didn't want to refine a powerful Shinto magic weapon.

Just move out of the altar as soon as possible to avoid having your personal will eroded by the divine will. Incense is very poisonous and you cannot accept sacrifices or enjoy incense without being ordained as a priest.

There was once an unofficial historical record that a founding emperor of a dynasty was rescued by a military general during his humble beginnings. After returning home, he set up a tablet to pray for longevity and kowtowed three times a day.

This military general was so unlucky that his luck was completely shattered. Such a great hero was left sick in an inn and had to sell his fat horse to make a living.

Of course, in addition to the fact that mortals do not accept incense, there is also a reason why the king does not worship his subjects. The two of them are the king and his subject appointed by heaven, just like Zuo Fu and You Bi assist Ziwei.

Although the Zhulingxi Candlestick does not contain so many rituals, the preliminary preparation work is still quite a lot.

It is necessary to burn incense and offer sacrifices, light three incense sticks next to the wedding candlestick, and offer incense to awaken the festive wishes deposited in it.

Use green vine paper and cinnabar ink to write the Shinto name of the rat god Xu Suzi, put it into the brazier together with the wedding candlestick, sprinkle with oak wood powder and light it.

Use sacrificial fire to clean the wedding candlesticks. If they have not been used for twenty years, all the dust and old impurities on them will be burned away.

The preliminary work has been completed, and we can prepare for the descent of the spirit.

This is the method of divine transformation in the altar method. Different from the method of inviting gods to come up, the core of the method of divine transformation is to preserve the gods and summon them to appear. It is the skill of refining the false into the true.

Yu Shuyang sat quietly and counted his breaths, and soon entered a state of concentration. His mind was as still as it was at the beginning, and he sat and observed the object of the candlestick.

Sitting and observing is also called seeing with the mind. With eyes closed, one can observe with the mind's eye and eyebrows, and see the spirits of objects.

Objects with sufficient spirituality will become spirits. As the saying goes, things become spirits when they grow old. This kind of spirit is called a charm. It is a fragile monster. If its body is broken before it reaches the seventh level of cultivation, it will die.

After being cleansed by the sacrificial fire, the wedding candlestick is as clean as ever, a small ball of dim light. Because of the long-term burning of dragon and phoenix wedding candles, it has been stained with a hint of the shape of a phoenix.

Yu Shuyang saw the dim light of the candle and the shapeless bird, and felt happy in his heart. Isn't this a coincidence?

The Bird Talisman Yang Gang Ban has three quail true forms, which can help the candlestick spirit transform into a bird form. He chose a true form of the fire-drinking supernatural power and meditated on it in the dark fire.

Maybe in the future he would be able to raise a quail-like candle spirit, and he was a little looking forward to it.

When you sit and observe and see the object spirit, your mind will also sense the auspicious candlestick, and you can directly send the image of the Rat God into it.

This step is very smooth, and it happens in a moment of thought. As soon as you think of it, the intention comes, and the image of the Rat God also resides in your spirit.

The wedding candlestick instantly became a Shinto instrument, and one could see with the naked eye that it exuded a sacred aura, without having to sit and observe it with the mind.

Yu Shuyang withdrew from his calm and looked around repeatedly. The candlestick was too dazzling. The stars of Xuxiu illuminated the sky, carrying a sense of astral energy. The Dragon Abyss Sword in his previous life had this aura, leaving behind the reputation of "the treasures of nature and the might of the bull."

He didn't like this kind of brilliant treasures; they were too dazzling, giving a sense of ostentation, which was not in line with the sword immortal's style of killing with one strike.

The candlestick where the Rat God resides can now use the power of the Star God to try to draw the Zishui True Text.

Yu Shuyang did not need any magic power to drive him. He could directly sense the starlight of Xuxu on the candlestick and draw the two real characters of Zi and Shui with the power of the star god.

He used the common script of the East - Heavenly Book of Jade Characters, which is one of the Eight Scriptures and contains the principles of the Golden Book and Jade Law.

First, think of the two words "Zi" and "Shui" in your mind, and then channel the power of the star god into it. Just like a sponge absorbs water, clusters of starlight from the Xuxu constellation are swallowed up.

Until the two characters "Zi Shui" became as golden and jade-like, the true text became visible and was directly injected into the mysterious orifice of the lower dantian.

The true text of Zi water flows from Lingtai, enters the Ren channel and runs all the way to the Du channel, runs a big circle, and flows into the Xuanqiao of the lower Dantian.

The Ren Yang water Qi was floating in the Dantian like a nebula. When the Zi water true text entered, the nebula seemed to disintegrate and the Zi spiritual water burst out.

As soon as Zishui Zhenwen and Zilingshui met, they began to shatter bit by bit, and the scene was like water dripping from a hot oil pan.

The Zishui Zhenwen was eroded by the Zilingshui, and the two were completely integrated. Under the support of the Xuxu star's divine power, the black Zishui turned into the front half of the Xuanwu shell.

This half shell is the Zishui magic talisman. It turned out to be successful. Yu Shuyang was very happy.

Among the seven stars of Xuanwu, Xu and Shi are the shell. Xu represents the front half of the shell, and Shi represents the back half of the shell.

The basalt shell has its own tortoise book, which is good at deduction and calculation, and can also conceal its own destiny. There is no need to be afraid even if someone curses or plots against you behind your back.

Yu Shuyang used the auspicious candlestick to connect with the Xu constellation, borrowed the power of the rat to cast the water magic talisman, and promoted the calculation of half of the tortoise book.

He re-deduce the sacrificial methods of the three talismans: Hai Water, Shen Metal, and You Rooster, and did not find any major loopholes.

I also pushed the Eight Wind Mantra and Heavenly Wind Method into the Turtle Book. Compared with deducing the magic talismans, this was much more troublesome, and it was obviously difficult to read half of the Turtle Book.

He had to refine twelve magic talismans within one hundred and twenty days and condense the Dharma image to break through to the ninth level. He had to figure it out.

He had used his mind to deduce and calculate before, but the results were very vague, and he kept wandering around the timeline, which made him feel uneasy.

Yu Shuyang also added his own destiny into the calculation and calculated the time when he would break through to the ninth level. This was not too difficult to calculate, just like using the usual test scores to estimate the results of the final entrance examination.

I don’t know if there are loopholes in the half-book of turtles, or if it is due to my own destiny, but the deduced results are a bit irrelevant.

He was calculating the breakthrough time, and he actually gave him a place name.

"Shibalipu Laobiewan, Baigui Yubi, what is this?
Is my method of deduction and calculation wrong? That shouldn't be the case. I'm using the Xuanwu Turtle Book, which has an additional Teng Snake Qimen compared to ordinary turtle books. There shouldn't be any problems.

Could it be that this is where my chance to break through to the Ninth Rank lies?"

　I'm sorry, I'm having a serious writing problem. I'll try to adjust my state as soon as possible. Feel free to leave a message. Mainly because I'm still unsure, and the more I write, the more problems I feel.
