They stayed on the second floor of Lingxiao Pavilion for three whole days.
Lin Xiuyuan roughly flipped through hundreds of jade slips before finally finding what he needed.
The method for making talismans recorded on this jade slip is called the "Li Shui You Zhou Talisman Making Method".
This branch of talisman-making method is derived from the Mingyou Incantation Method in the Nine Basic Talisman-Making Methods.
The Mingyou Incantation Method for Making Talismans is one of the top-ranked methods among the nine basic talisman-making methods.
One can use incantations or spells to achieve a state of mental clarity and inspiration, or to refine talisman materials using incantations to increase the success rate and power.
The effect was quite good, so it ranked among the top in the nine methods of talisman making.
This branch of talisman-making, the Li Shui You Zhou, takes its incantation from the Li Shui You Zhou, but with a focus on the water element, greatly improving the efficiency of talisman-making. Li belongs to the fire element and is located in the water position, which is very suitable for Lin Xiuyuan's magical energy and the talismans he is currently refining, making it twice as effective with half the effort.
According to the description on the jade slip, it can improve efficiency by at least 20%.
The specifics will only be known after some testing, but among all the branches of talisman-making methods, this one is the most suitable for Lin Xiuyuan.
"Three days have passed just like that... I'll first check the restrictive runes on this floor, then go upstairs to look at the secret runes. If there's still time, I'll check out the inheritance of rune-making knowledge and experience."
After choosing his method of talisman making, Lin Xiuyuan headed to another area on the second floor.
Upon arriving here, one finds everything related to talisman-making and spirit patterns, covering a wide range of topics. It includes various yellow talismans, spirit talismans, and even mid- to high-level talisman-making spirit patterns, all available for the disciples of Lingxiao to accumulate and improve their skills.
Each type of talisman uses different spiritual patterns, much like the restrictions of an array, with a wide variety of types, giving it a vast and boundless feel.
Array masters continuously cultivate rune restrictions, gradually learning array formations. Rune masters, in turn, improve their rune mastery by constantly studying these spiritual runes.
Spiritual runes are the key to forming a talisman. Like an array, they use the array eye and base, and through the restrictions of runes, they draw upon the power of heaven and earth to gather spiritual energy and form a terrifying and boundless aura.
Otherwise, how could a few simple lines suddenly unleash such power? It is entirely due to the convergence of spiritual runes with the power of heaven and earth, and the gathering of spiritual energy through talismans, that the corresponding power is unleashed.
When you're a low-level talisman master, you don't understand this point. You can only figure it out slowly, following the steps and refining talismans according to what the jade slip teaches. That's why most talisman masters find it very difficult to advance. They are just feeling their way across the river, and their success rate in making talismans in the early stages is extremely low, generally only around 20% to 30%. It is only when they become more proficient that the success rate increases.
But this cannot be changed; how can a low-level rune master understand spirit runes?
Now that I have become a spirit talisman master, my divine sense is strong enough, and I have a certain level of mastery of talismanic arts, which allows me to comprehend and learn spirit runes and continuously improve myself.
The profound insights gained from the wonders of the purple talisman allowed Lin Xiuyuan to directly comprehend the spiritual patterns of specific talismans. Besides this, it was essentially the only way to improve one's talismanic skills; otherwise, one could only slowly improve by continuously creating talismans.
As soon as Lin Xiuyuan picked up the jade slip, he was immediately captivated.
Within the jade slip, each type of spirit rune has annotations and a simple introduction, making it easy for the disciples of Lingxiao to understand. It's like a beacon, illuminating the path behind the door.
Especially for someone like Lin Xiuyuan, who had no connections, it was like entering a treasure trove.
It's unclear whether Lin Xiuyuan's insights from the mysteries of the purple talisman, leading to his understanding of the essence of several talismans, are the reason why he seems to possess a special talent for comprehending these spiritual patterns.
This allowed Lin Xiuyuan to quickly absorb, digest, and understand the knowledge!
For a moment, Lin Xiuyuan was so engrossed in watching that he almost completely forgot the passage of time.
The so-called cultivation in the mountains makes one unaware of the passage of time. In the blink of an eye, it seems like only a short time has passed before Lin Xiuyuan felt a movement coming from the disciple token at his waist!
Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiuyuan felt a pressure coming from all directions; it was the Lingxiao Pavilion's formation repelling him...
"So fast..."
Lin Xiuyuan reluctantly withdrew his divine sense and put down the jade slip with some reluctance. He didn't expect that the time would be up so quickly, having only read five or six spirit pattern jade slips.
Although cultivators have photographic memories, these spiritual runes require careful comprehension. They are not simple characters; they contain subtle variations that cannot be understood at a glance. Only by spending time slowly comprehending them can one memorize the spiritual rune.
In this way, Lin Xiuyuan was constantly comprehending and unconsciously forgot the passage of time. Only now did he realize that twelve days had passed in a flash!
"I was originally planning to cultivate two Lingxiao Secret Talismans..."
Lin Xiuyuan shook his head, but he wasn't too disappointed. He had just started practicing three new Taoist techniques and had two secret talismans with him, so he wasn't lacking in these areas. He could fill in the gaps later.
It's a waste of free time; next time I'll have to contribute points.
However, that's not important. The most important thing is... Lin Xiuyuan looked at the bookshelves in front of him and roughly estimated that there were at least a thousand spirit-patterned jade slips!
For a moment, Lin Xiuyuan felt a headache coming on.
"I need to find a way to earn contribution points as soon as possible. The spirit rune jade slips here have greatly improved my talisman skills! Moreover, the Lingxiao Secret Talismans and other resources require a lot of contribution points!!"
Lin Xiuyuan thought to himself, then, seeing the array's repulsion growing stronger, he quickly put down the jade slip in his hand and hurriedly left Lingxiao Pavilion.
