"The initial stage of Kan Water Runes is based on the Six Profound Spiritual Patterns, with the Returning Spirit Pattern and Water Spiritual Pattern as the main components. The key lies in the connection between the Water Spiritual Pattern and the Six Profound Spiritual Patterns, such as this one..."
"The initial-level spirit patterns and runes, while not as vast as the sea, still encompass all the low-grade spirit runes in the cultivation world. Even though we rune masters basically only refine a few types of runes suitable for ourselves, the runes we refine will change as our cultivation level increases."
"Entry-level talisman masters can take shortcuts and learn a small number of spirit runes, but once you reach the level of a spirit talisman master, you must lay a solid foundation and not be impatient or rash. Even if you don't need to use many of the initial spirit runes, you still have to practice them diligently. Otherwise, how can your talisman skills support you to a higher level?"
With these words of instruction, the three-hour lecture came to an end.
However, none of the Lingxiao disciples were in a hurry to leave. They remained seated on their prayer mats, their eyes fixed on the old woman at the head of the table.
Elder Lin was loved by many Lingxiao disciples not only because of his high teaching level and profound knowledge of talismanic arts, but also because he was happy to teach and often gave guidance to his disciples.
As expected, it was the same as always.
After Elder Lin finished speaking, he looked at the disciples who had not yet left, smiled kindly, and said, "I still have some matters to attend to today. I will answer three questions and then we will disperse."
The moment the words were spoken, all the disciples of Lingxiao raised their hands.
Elder Lin's gaze swept across the crowd and landed on Lin Xiuyuan. She greatly admired this new disciple and thus generously gave him an opportunity to offer guidance.
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan was overjoyed. He quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and then spoke:
"Elder, you mentioned the initial stage of the Li Jin rune before. I have a question about this and would like to ask you about it. I have repeatedly used the Seven Profound Spiritual Patterns to start the stroke, but I have found that when I am outlining the Li Jin and Heavenly Fire runes, I always feel a bit stuck. Outlining the runes is not smooth and I am prone to failure. Is this related to the third spiritual pattern of the Li Jin rune? By the way, the spirit talisman that I am refining is a wind-type talisman."
Upon hearing Lin Xiuyuan's question, a hint of surprise flashed in Elder Lin's eyes, then he nodded and said:
"That's right. If it's a wind-type talisman, it starts with the Seven Profound Spirit Patterns? It's paired with the Li Metal and Heavenly Fire runes, so it seems to be an offensive talisman. In that case, the third spirit knot of the Li Metal rune is the easiest place to make a mistake. It's not easy that you can clearly perceive this."
"The method is simple, there are two ways. First, try drawing the fourth spirit knot to connect with the Heavenly Fire Rune. If that doesn't work, add five spirit knots. This might reduce the talisman's power, but it will allow you to experience the changes more. When you draw the third spirit knot, you'll understand more easily how to connect it to the Heavenly Fire Rune. This method is a bit clumsy, but it will be effective in time."
"Secondly, the wind-type spirit patterns, mainly composed of metal and fire runes, are obviously quite extreme. The slightest instability will cause everything to collapse. You can try using the return spirit pattern and merging it with the second knot spirit pattern to outline the third return knot pattern and add the connection points. However, merging spirit patterns in this way requires extremely high spiritual power and cannot make any mistakes in controlling magic power. This depends on individual talent."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with a thoughtful expression. He hadn't expected it to be like this. If the spirit patterns could be merged, it would indeed be more stable.
"Thank you for your explanation, Elder Lin. I understand now."
Elder Lin watched as Lin Xiuyuan sat down and nodded gently.
She had high hopes for this young man. Among the new disciples, his mastery of talismanic arts was outstanding. Now, looking at the question Lin Xiuyuan raised, he had already used the Heavenly Fire Talisman, which was quite complex and difficult for beginner-level runes. Clearly, he had mastered most of the beginner-level runes.
This level of skill is almost on par with that of the Lingxiao disciples.
How many years has it been since he joined the Lingxiao lineage?
All things considered, even if he already had a solid foundation in the Eight Mystic Spirit Patterns and the basic Five Elements Runes, he probably hasn't been exposed to the basic runes for more than a few years.
Moreover, although she was not present at the scene of Lin Xiuyuan's competition at Jiuxiao Mountain, she had heard about it when she met with her friends. Such extraordinary skills, coupled with such talent in the Dao of Talismans, truly make him a rising prodigy!
Moreover, being from the Lingxiao lineage, he undoubtedly fits the criteria she wanted to cultivate.
but……
"Unfortunately, both families want to suppress you now, and I, all alone, have no way to protect you. Alas..."
Elder Lin sighed inwardly, not because he regretted Lin Xiuyuan's future, but because he regretted not being able to personally bestow the jade crystal to take such a prodigy under his wing. He felt he lacked the bond of master and disciple, and he also missed out on many contribution points.
Otherwise, with Lin Xiuyuan's talent, as long as he is carefully nurtured, he will surely shine brightly in the Lingxiao lineage. In addition to having such a monstrous genius disciple, he will also receive a large number of contribution points from the sect!
However, it's not to say that the Han and Xu families wield immense power within the Yunxiao Sect. After all, the Yunxiao Sect has more than a handful of Golden Core Ancestors, and there are more than just one or two Golden Core families.
That being said, the pressure from two Golden Core families is not so easy to bear.
For a Purple Mansion stage elder like her, who lacks a strong background, the intimidation of such a Golden Core family is quite significant.
Otherwise, a considerable amount of jade crystals would have already ended up in Lin Xiuyuan's cave.
Those elders and deacons with powerful backgrounds may not have seen Lin Xiuyuan's extraordinary talent, or perhaps they wanted to see if Lin Xiuyuan could continue to forge ahead under such pressure, or if he would perish halfway...
