Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

Chapter 111 Shadow Erosion

yard.

Lu Yang picked up his brush and drew a talisman, completing a mid-grade spirit talisman in one stroke.

After his spiritual cultivation made great progress, Lu Yang felt that his efficiency in drawing talismans was also getting higher and higher, and his understanding of the Dao of Talismans was advancing by leaps and bounds.

Putting everything else aside, after practicing with more than ten mid-grade spirit talismans, Lu Yang took out a high-grade talisman paper and prepared to start drawing a high-grade spirit talisman.

The Water Yin Talisman Scripture inheritance is sufficient for Lu Yang to use until the Foundation Establishment stage, so Lu Yang did not think about looking for other talisman inheritances.

The first-tier high-grade talisman that Lu Yang is about to draw is called the "Yin Erosion Talisman".

How to put it, the talisman inheritance of the Water Yin Talisman Scripture is divided into two parts: one part is water and the other part is yin. But whether it is water or yin, the resulting talismans are quite yin.

Let's just say the Shadow Erosion Talisman is an amplified version of the Shadow Sting Talisman.

Lu Yang didn't have many battles, but in those limited battles, Yin Ci Fu achieved remarkable feats.

Even a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator could lose half of their strength if they were not careful with a simple basic talisman.

If the Yin-piercing talisman is this powerful, one can only imagine the might of the superior Yin-erosion talisman.

Once hit, the entire body will be corroded by Yin energy. Let alone circulating spiritual energy to defend against the enemy, it would be good enough to ensure that one does not lose the ability to move.

It's almost guaranteed that you'll be able to easily bully those in the early or middle stages of Qi Refining.

If you become careless in the later stages of Qi cultivation, things won't be much better.

The most important thing about talismans is that they are easy to use.

Therefore, Lu Yang chose to draw the Yin Erosion Talisman as the first high-grade talisman.

With a touch of the finest talisman brush, Yin-Erosion runes were practiced in the sea of ​​consciousness, condensing into specks of talismanic light that landed on the talisman paper.

The spiritual energy is output in an orderly manner, and the powerful divine soul controls everything.

Having drawn talismans for a long time, Lu Yang had gained some insights. He felt that one should start drawing talismans after one's cultivation level had improved.

It's not just about Qi cultivation, but also about spiritual cultivation.

At the very least, one needs to be at the late stage of Qi Refining to ensure abundant spiritual energy when drawing high-grade talismans. Only those with the spiritual power of the late stage of Qi Refining can control this talisman-drawing process.

This ensures that the spiritual energy is not lost and the runes are not destroyed.

This is not a skill for drawing high-grade talismans with low cultivation level.

If one achieves something, it is truly a stroke of incredible luck. When Lu Yang was in the early stages of Qi Refining, drawing basic talismans was already extremely difficult.

The power is calculated in percentages.

However, once one's cultivation level is high enough, like now, even if one has never drawn a mid-grade talisman before, one can basically learn it after a few tries.

And there are very few mistakes.

The difficulty of drawing a high-grade talisman is naturally much greater than that of a mid-grade talisman, but Lu Yang did not find it so difficult to draw one at this moment.

However, due to a lack of skill in drawing runes, mistakes were inevitable.

But this is normal, after all, it's the first time drawing it.

After two or three times, it became smooth. In other words, Lu Yang only needed to draw the superior Yin Erosion Talisman three times before it was completed.

Thinking about all the talismans and cinnabar he had wasted before, Lu Yang couldn't help but shake his head.

There's absolutely no need for that.

Lu Yang didn't believe that being able to create higher-grade talismans only when one's cultivation level was low was a sign of prowess.

However, even if one's cultivation level reaches the peak of Qi Refining, it is still inevitable to waste two high-grade talismans when drawing them.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yang took out a piece of white paper.

It was just ordinary white paper. Lu Yang dipped his pen in water and gently traced the runes, beginning to draw another kind of talisman.

In the blink of an eye, the talisman brush stopped, rendered useless.

Come again.

After two or three times, a flash of inspiration struck the white paper, and it burst into flames.

Become!

Ordinary talisman paper cannot contain spiritual power, so at the moment the talisman is completed, the spiritual power is no longer suppressed by Lu Yang and will directly act on the white paper, burning it.

Lu Yang took out a talisman and began drawing it again.

Having learned from the experience of working on a blank sheet of paper, this time it was indeed accomplished in one fell swoop, as expected.

There are quite a few first-grade high-quality talismans recorded in the Water Yin Talisman Scripture, but Lu Yang does not intend to draw them all; he only plans to learn three or four.

By continuously trying this method, Lu Yang mastered four high-grade talismans in just one day.

Looking at the finished talisman in front of him, Lu Yang couldn't help but nod in approval.

What a brilliant idea! It shouldn't be difficult to come up with this method, so why haven't other talisman masters considered this before?

Or are they all so tight-lipped that even if they figure something out, they won't say anything?

That can't be right; at the very least, the clan would say so.

Even a small mosquito is still meat. Although the value of this first-level talisman is not much, it depends on who it is used for. How many spirit stones can a Qi Refining cultivator have?

Shaking his head, Lu Yang's gaze locked onto a first-tier top-grade talisman, the Yin-Eroding Ten Thousand Serpents Talisman.

This can be considered an advanced version of the Yin Erosion Talisman, but compared to the Yin Erosion Talisman, the power of this Yin Erosion Ten Thousand Serpent Talisman is much greater.

With the addition of the Yin-Yang attribute, once the talisman is activated, it's as if ten thousand snakes emerge and attack the enemy.

Faced with such an attack, cultivators cannot ignore it. Those with powerful cultivation or strong means to resist the swarm of snakes are fine, but if they are not careful, one snake might slip through and fall on their bodies.

This venomous snake will then begin to erode your body like a bone-eating worm.

It was truly an extremely insidious talisman.

With the little trick he had just thought of, Lu Yang simply practiced it, and fortunately, he didn't suffer much damage.

Moreover, this has another advantage: if you draw a talisman on talisman paper and fail to do so, there is a risk of being blown up by the talisman.

The blank paper cannot contain spiritual power, but its power is also limited, so there is no need to worry too much.

Otherwise, if the Yin-Eating Serpent Talisman were to erupt, the serpents would devour the person who created the talisman before the talisman could be successfully drawn.

"Lu Yang, come here."

The next day, while Lu Yang was still practicing drawing talismans, he received a telepathic message from Lu Qingren.

Without hesitation, he walked directly towards the council hall.

Now that the Lu family has split into nine peaks, under normal circumstances, the affairs of each of the nine peaks can be resolved by sending their own people.

The main peak to which Lu Yang belongs doesn't actually have many members. When there's something going on, they'll usually summon Lu Yang and the others to handle it.

There might be something else going on this time, so Lu Yang naturally couldn't afford to delay.

In the council hall, Lu Yang looked at Lu Qingren and found that his aura was as deep as the ocean, making him increasingly unfathomable.

It is said that the Foundation Establishment stage and the Qi Refining stage are worlds apart.

Before Lu Qingren broke through, Lu Yang, although only a minor cultivator in the early to mid-stages of Qi Refining, could still sense the fluctuations of magical power emanating from Lu Qingren.

But now that Lu Qingren has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, even though Lu Yang has already advanced to the peak of Qi Refining, standing in front of Lu Qingren is like an ant looking at an elephant.

Fortunately, they were his own people. If they were enemies, Lu Yang didn't dare to think he could even muster the will to resist.

In the world of cultivation, realms are the greatest pyramid.

"Chieftain."

Lu Qingren tossed the jade slip in his hand to Lu Yang. Lu Yang took the jade slip and looked at its contents, and couldn't help but frown.

Canglan County attacked!

"Chieftain, could it be that the Southern Barbarians have returned?"

Lu Qingren shook his head upon hearing this. "It doesn't seem like it. It shouldn't be that fast. Although more than three years have passed and there has been restlessness within the Southern Barbarian territory, they are clearly still preparing for something. Recently, there have been no signs of a large-scale mobilization in the Southern Barbarian territory. It should just be some evil cultivators who have infiltrated."

More than three years have passed, and naturally, it's not just Lu Yang who has grown.

With the Lu family advancing to the Golden Core stage, the progress of other family members also accelerated.

Even Lu Xuanjie, a cultivator with five spiritual roots, has reached the third level of Qi Refining.

Don't think this speed is slow. A cultivator with five spiritual roots can reach the third level of Qi Refining in six years of cultivation, which was something that was basically unthinkable in the previous clan.

Lu Xuanying even broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

The 300 mu of spiritual fields and 1 mu of medicinal herb fields in Canglan County have reached maturity again, and this time the clan has sent people over once more.

It's just that the scale isn't as large as before, since the Southern Barbarians' attitude towards the four western prefectures is truly baffling.

Before the war officially started, they would occasionally come over to plunder. Now that the war has begun, the Southern Barbarians still occupy Nanfeng County, but they haven't made any moves.

Even the raids on Canglan County have decreased, which is why the cultivation level of the clansmen sent to Canglan County each year has been getting lower and lower over the past three years.

This time, the clan sent six people to Canglan County.

The one with the highest cultivation level is Lu Xuanying, who is at the sixth level of Qi Refining. Of the other five, four are at the early stage of Qi Refining, including Lu Jie.

Of these six people, apart from another alchemist at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, Lu Yang had interacted with almost all of them. After all, over the years, almost all of them had asked Lu Yang to perform magic in their spirit fields.

Lu Yang's spiritual plant cultivation technique is now widely recognized; everyone knows that inviting Lu Yang just once can significantly increase production.

As for the fee, it was well worth it after the results, so more and more people were asking Lu Yang to perform the ritual.

"What does the clan leader mean?"

"Your movement technique is quite good, and you also have a stealth technique. Now that you have the seventh level of Qi Refining, you should be fine even if you encounter a peak Qi Refining cultivator. The clan has set up many stalls, but the manpower is becoming increasingly insufficient. This time, I need you to go and see what's going on."

The disappearance of all six people is no small matter.

Lu Yang was somewhat prepared and did not refuse, agreeing directly. As long as he did not leave the Foundation Establishment stage, he would be basically in no danger.

Moreover, the Fate-Breaking Pearl contains fifty years of fortune. With such good luck, even if there is danger, Lu Yang should be able to turn misfortune into good fortune. Therefore, Lu Yang is not opposed to this kind of mission.

Moreover, what Lu Qingren said was true. The Lu family had several hundred cultivators, which seemed like a lot, but when spread across the four prefectures, it was a bit of a stretch.

Even though the Lu family has been trying its best to recruit guest retainers in recent years, it's still the same.

After all, they don't accept just any rogue cultivator; they still follow an elite policy. Moreover, the clan wouldn't feel comfortable using guest elders for this kind of thing.

"Chief, I'll go take a look right now."

Lu Qingren nodded and handed a talisman to Lu Yang. "These are two second-tier talismans, hand-drawn by me. One is a Hundred-Mile Talisman. Once activated, it can send you a hundred miles away, but the distance is difficult to control."

The other is the Azure Azure Sword Talisman, which contains one of my attacks, at the early Foundation Establishment stage. It can be used in critical moments, so there's no need to conserve it.
