I Cultivate Longevity in the Cultivation Realm
Chapter 208 - 117: Pure Yang Five Elements Technique Achieves Small Success, News_2
Zhou Changwang compared these three layers of Sealing Talismans, realizing that they are closely connected and essentially part of a progressive process.
Once the First-grade Sealing Talisman is mastered, learning the Second Grade Seal Talisman becomes much easier. If one can master the Second Grade Seal Talisman, then they will naturally have a special understanding of the Third Grade Sealing Talisman.
It might be possible to learn and craft the Third Grade Sealing Talisman effortlessly.
...
In the Talisman Room.
Zhou Changwang began his first attempt at drawing the Sealing Talisman.
First, he took out a stack of Talisman Paper.
This stack of Talisman Paper was the most ordinary kind, not of a particularly high grade. However, since he was currently just learning to make Sealing Talismans, using high-quality Talisman Paper would be somewhat wasteful.
This paper, costing about fifty sheets per Lower-Grade Spirit Stone, was just right.
Then he picked up the Talisman Pen, dipped it in Spirit Talisman Blood Ink, and with a slight movement of Spiritual Power, a glow radiated from the entire Talisman Pen.
This was a sign of spiritual power flowing smoothly, allowing it to move automatically up and down the Talisman Pen.
It’s also worth mentioning that because Zhou Changwang’s spiritual power was now purer than before, he felt a greater ease while drawing Talismans, which slightly increased his chances of success.
Only then did he truly hover the Spiritual Pen over the Talisman Paper, firmly descending.
One rune, two runes...
Zhou Changwang’s hand was extremely steady, and his formidable Spiritual Sense gave him a massive advantage in controlling Spiritual Power and sketching on the Talisman Paper, ensuring there were no errors in every stroke.
Until the moment when the fourth rune’s structure was about to be completed, the uneven distribution of spiritual power caused the Talisman Pen to momentarily freeze.
This pause resulted in the failure of the entire Spirit Talisman.
Zhou Changwang didn’t mind, casually pulling the Talisman Paper aside and continuing to draw.
One sheet, two sheets, three sheets...
Zhou Changwang kept failing and kept drawing.
The Sealing Talisman itself is a First-grade Middle-level Spirit Talisman, and its drawing difficulty is even greater than that of the Golden Shield Talisman.
Although Zhou Changwang’s strength and talisman-making skills had improved significantly, there was always a gradual process with any Spirit Talisman.
Continuous failure before success is quite normal.
Thankfully, Zhou Changwang maintained a calm mindset, and finally, after the thirteenth attempt, successfully completed the drawing of the last rune. Then he closed both ends...
Buzz~!
A flash of Spiritual Light appeared on the talisman.
The Sealing Talisman was successfully drawn.
His gaze fell on the Attribute Panel.
Talisman: Talisman Making (Mastery 19/200)
Sealing Talisman (Entry Level 1/100)
Sure enough, the Sealing Talisman had reached the Entry Level, and the experience points for the Talisman-Making Skill also increased slightly.
Thus, he finally relaxed.
Next, he only needed to keep drawing Spirit Talismans to improve his proficiency in this Talisman.
However, looking at the first Sealing Talisman he had drawn on the desk, he couldn’t resist experimenting with its Sealing Technique effect.
Quickly tossing it forward, with a slight movement of Spiritual Power, he activated it.
Then, with a thought flashing in his mind, a Geng Metal Finger Magic technique instantly formed and landed on the Sealing Talisman.
Poof~!
Instantly, a deep pit appeared on the ground.
Three zhang deep, peering into the pit, it was pitch black and seemed bottomless.
And that Sealing Talisman was instantly destroyed, losing its effect.
"This..."
Zhou Changwang blinked.
It was only then that he realized he had just used a Geng Metal Finger at the Perfection Level.
How could this newly entry-level Sealing Talisman possibly seal it?
Then, he began drawing the talisman again.
Since he had already reached the Entry Level with Sealing Talismans, he almost had no chance of failure drawing it again.
One sheet, two sheets, three sheets...
After drawing ten sheets in a row, he began another attempt.
This time, he first experimented with a Geng Metal Finger of the ordinary Entry Level.
Activating the Sealing Talisman, the Entry Level Geng Metal Finger landed on the Sealing Talisman.
Buzz buzz buzz...
The talisman vibrated violently for a while before finally calming down.
The Magic technique was successfully sealed.
This Sealing Talisman managed to seal the Entry Level Geng Metal Finger.
"It’s just the power..."
Zhou Changwang wasn’t particularly attached, so he casually activated the Spirit Talisman.
Hiss!
A Geng Metal Finger shot out, hitting the ground three cun deep.
"One-tenth of the power of a normal Entry Level Geng Metal Finger.
As expected, although this Sealing Talisman is mystical, it still follows the same theory as the previous ordinary Spirit Talismans: the power of the sealed Magic depends entirely on the grade of the Talisman itself.
Even if a normal Sealing Talisman successfully seals the Magic, it can only contain ten to thirty percent of its power.
While a High-Grade Talisman can contain thirty to sixty percent, only a Finished Talisman can harness over seventy percent of the Magic’s power."
Zhou Changwang quickly drew a conclusion through comparison.
He then took out a second Sealing Talisman and continued sealing Magic, this time the Mastery Level Geng Metal Finger.
Unfortunately, it failed.
Then the third, fourth, it wasn’t until the fourth one that it succeeded.
The power was indeed one-tenth of the Mastery Level Geng Metal Finger.
As for the Small Success Level Geng Metal Finger, as soon as he used it, the Sealing Talisman shattered, losing its effect.
Clearly, the Small Success Level Geng Metal Finger had exceeded the Sealing Talisman’s holding limit, making it impossible to seal.
As such, Zhou Changwang began to shift to other Magic techniques: Fireball Technique, Fertilization Technique, Annual Ring Skill...
