Chapter 47: Soul-Replenishing Talisman
After Ji Qingling finished drawing the last stroke, the talisman paper in his hand glowed faintly, and another one was successful.
Nowadays, she draws many more types of talismans than she did a year ago, and the success rate is also very high, about 70% to 80%, but she dare not make it public.
I learned from Shopkeeper Li that the success rate of first-level talisman masters is generally 40%. So it is better to keep a low profile.
She also strictly controlled the number of talismans she sold. For every hundred talisman papers, she would only sell more than thirty back to Manager Li.
Fortunately, because her talismans were of good quality, they were very popular in Shopkeeper Li's shop, and Shopkeeper Li was also generous in giving her spirit stones.
It was enough for her daily consumption of talisman making, and could also support Ji Qingyuan from time to time.
But she didn't dare show those extra talismans in front of others, for fear that they would be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.
Except for giving some to Ji Qingyuan and a few to Ji Hui, the rest all stayed in the storage bag.
I stood up and stretched, realizing that I had spent another whole night painting.
She is going to find Ji Qingyuan today. She has recently learned a new talisman and wants to try it out with Ji Qingyuan.
Although they were both in the outer gate, their residences were far apart.
In the morning of Taiyi Sect, as usual, there were many disciples practicing.
The sect really brings the master into the door, which is a perfect interpretation of the saying that practice is up to the individual.
Since she started learning, there have been Jindan or Yuanying cultivators giving lectures in various lecture halls every few days.
There will be no other teaching time, and you can attend the class or not, no one will care about you.
All cultivation is entirely up to you.
Passing by a small path, she saw Ji Qiao practicing sword. In just one year, he had advanced from the first level of Qi Refining to the second level.
Ji Qiao's single spiritual root aptitude was quickly valued in the Taiyi Sect. It was rumored that the Taoist master of Piaomiao Peak had already designated him as his personal disciple and was only waiting for him to build his foundation before he could formally become his disciple.
A year can change a lot of things. For example, Ji Qiao is no longer the timid and introverted boy he used to be.
Ji Qingling didn't disturb him, but not everyone wants to be disturbed.
When I arrived at Ji Qingyuan's residence, I happened to see him preparing to go to the Weapon Refining Hall.
Without waiting for Ji Qingyuan to speak, she pulled him into the house.
"Let me show you something good?"
Ji Qingling looked around, took out a soundproofing instrument and activated it, so that ordinary Qi-refining cultivators would not be able to hear their conversation.
"What's wrong? You're so mysterious."
"Look what this is? A soul-replenishing talisman!"
"Of course I know this is a spiritual replenishment talisman. Even though I don't know how to make talismans, I still know the basic functions of this spiritual talisman."
"I just learned it. Can you help me try to absorb the spiritual energy in the talisman? Do you think you can absorb it?"
Ji Qingyuan often tried out new talismans, and he was used to it.
A trace of spiritual power was input into the talisman, and the talisman flashed with golden light, and pure spiritual power poured out.
Ji Qingyuan circulated his mental skills, and the spiritual power gathered around him and was slowly drawn into his body.
After running a small circulation, it will all be absorbed by the meridians.
Ji Qingyuan opened his eyes, "The spiritual power is very pure, it can be directly operated and absorbed without tempering."
Ji Qingling naturally knew the effect, so she took out a few talismans and handed them to Ji Qingyuan.
"That's all I've drawn for now. Here you go."
Seeing Ji Qingyuan frowning and about to curse, she raised her hand to stop him.
"Don't rush to scold me, listen to me first, I didn't do anything wrong, these spiritual powers are indeed mine. You also know that the Great Elder said that I have a special physique and a high affinity for spiritual power, but he didn't know that the spiritual energy I absorbed was so much that my own meridians could not fully absorb it."
Ji Qingyuan found it a little unbelievable, "Too much that the meridians can't absorb it? Don't you know there's something wrong with your meridians?"
"There is nothing wrong with my meridians. The Great Elder checked them out back then. It's just that I have a special physique. I must be the legendary chosen one."
"Speak nicely."
"Anyway, it's just extra. Otherwise, why could I learn to make talismans so early? It's because my spiritual power is rich. How many people do you think can do it in the early stage of Qi Refining?"
Ji Qingyuan ignored the slight boasting in every word she said and asked, "Who else knows about this?"
"It's you. The Great Elder only said that I have a special physique and didn't know about this matter."
He stuffed the talismans back into Ji Qingling's hands, "That's enough. I will just pretend I didn't hear about what happened today. You are not allowed to draw spirit replenishing talismans anymore. If you have extra spiritual power, practice making talismans. Remember, you must never tell anyone else, no one!"
Looking at Ji Qingyuan's serious expression, Ji Qingling was really a little moved. She made a great decision to tell Ji Qingyuan about this matter, although she had concealed the existence of the little bud.
I didn't expect him to react like this.
The amount given was not much and had little impact on her.
Although spiritual power can be used to make talismans, she can't just practice and make talismans all day long.
That would be too boring. If cultivating immortality was just for the sake of longevity, she felt that it was meaningless.
She knew Ji Qingyuan's stubbornness, so she could only try her best to convince him, "Are my qualifications better than yours?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Ji Qingyuan didn't understand, but nodded in agreement.
Ji Qingling continued, "Isn't our biggest task at the moment to improve our cultivation, build our foundation as soon as possible, and then find someone from Qingmu Sect to help Dad heal his injuries?"
Ji Qingyuan continued to nod.
"I have better aptitude than you, and I have a physique that can absorb spiritual energy. I should have established my foundation earlier than you. Do you have any objection to this?"
Ji Qingyuan nodded helplessly.
"Are you confident that I can go to Zhongzhou alone after I build my foundation?"
Of course I'm worried.
"Then I won't go to the Weapon Refining Hall anymore and will focus on improving my cultivation."
Ji Qingling shook his head. "You have to learn techniques, too. Even if you reach the foundation-building stage, you may not necessarily be very powerful. But if you have one more skill in refining equipment, maybe you will have a better chance of meeting the disciples of Qingmu Sect."
I was completely convinced by her reasons, but I still couldn't help feeling frustrated.
"I am just too useless. Not only can I not help you, but I also want you to help me."
Ji Qingling shook his head, "It's not that you are useless. If you were useless, why would you be chosen to come to Taiyi Sect?"
He has indeed grown up and knows how to comfort others.
"And the main reason is that I'm so useful." Ji Qingling added.
I take back what I just said. The real Ji Xiaomei is the one who never forgets to brag about herself at any time.
Compared with the Soul-Replenishing Pill, this Soul-Replenishing Talisman brings more and purer spiritual power, so the effect is naturally many times better.
However, the biggest drawback of the spirit-replenishing talisman is that it cannot be used in combat. When using it, one needs to regulate one's breathing to absorb the spiritual power stored in the talisman.
Therefore, spiritual replenishment talismans are almost never seen in the market. Who would complain about having too much spiritual energy?
Drawing the replenishing talisman will also consume spiritual energy, and the difficulty should be the greatest among the first-level talismans.
So naturally no one would do something where the effort is greater than the benefit.
The purpose of Ji Qingling's learning this talisman was for Ji Qingyuan.
I hope the distance between the two of us won’t be too far.
She was afraid that if she could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage or even the Divine Transformation stage in the future.
What if her family can only cultivate to the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage? How will she survive the long thousands or tens of thousands of years that follow?
She didn't want to hear words like the Tao was cruel and lonely.
What's the point of living alone as an old monster? My friend said that Ji Qingyuan appeared too many times, and I have been trying to reduce it.
Continue to be polite and collect! Recommendation ticket! Monthly ticket!
It would be a waste if it was left there unused. Give them all to me. Thank you! (End of this chapter)
