Connecting to the dark and mysterious realms.
There was a quiet room specially opened for retreat and cultivation, and Shang Xia occupied a relatively secluded one at this time.
As the purple bamboo pen completed the last rune pattern, Shang Xia carefully returned the second "Linyuan Imperial Qi Talisman" that had been made into the spirit box.
Putting the purple bamboo pen into the pen wash, Shang Xia slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
The second-order Linyuan talisman ink is used to make the third-order "Linyuan Imperial Qi Fu", although the quality of the rune ink is a little worse, but with Shang Xia's current talisman-making techniques, the talisman success rate is not too bad.
Such a "Qi Fu" can allow warriors below the fourth rank to obtain a short period of floating and escaping ability, which is used on the body of a fourth-order warrior, and it can also significantly improve their flight escape.
Shang Xia had been in the Xuan Realm for nearly two months, and in this more than a month, he did not immediately start making fourth-order martial talismans, but instead calmed down and made a batch of commonly used first, second, and third-order martial talismans for brush practice.
This was not Shang Xia deliberately delaying, but out of caution, he was adapting to the environment in the Tongyou Xuan Realm by making low-level martial talismans.
Of course, consumables like martial talismans will only be too little at any time, never too much.
Shang Xia walked slowly through the quiet room, and there were still a few broken talisman papers scattered on the ground.
Not far away, in a specially preserved corner, there is a small wooden table, on which are some carving tools, as well as several jade knife stones of different sizes, and stone chips and stone powder that have not been cleaned up on the table.
Even if Shang Xia was already a rank four great Fu master at the moment, and his cultivation had also reached the fourth heaven, it was difficult to achieve a 100% success rate when making low-level martial Fu.
In fact, Shang Xia used the special third-order Linyuan talisman paper to make the third-order "Linyuan Yuqi Fu" this time, and the three talisman papers only became two.
Of course, this was Shang Xia's first attempt to make the "Linyuan Yuqi Fu", which was also a reason.
As for carving with broken knife stones, Shang Xia was inspired by the "Linyuan Seal" and tried to make a talisman that could directly cover the martial talisman on the talisman paper like a seal.
However, this is obviously an extremely difficult thing to do, although Shang Xia already has an outline in his heart, but in the process of specific implementation, it is repeatedly tried and failed, but it wastes a lot of those broken knife stones.
When Shang Xia walked out of the portal and looked at the mysterious void in front of him, he felt a bit relaxed after being depressed for many days.
Especially with his deep breathing, the "Four Seasons and Four Scenes Reincarnation Technique" in his body flowed on its own, containing a trace of the rich vitality of the origin of heaven and earth into his mouth, and then after being refined, it made up for the evil essence that did not cause much consumption during the talisman making process.
This is the special thing about the mysterious world!
In the mysterious world, there is not only a strong collection of heaven and earth qi containing a faint origin of heaven and earth, but it is also extremely suitable for the cultivation of high-level martial artists.
More importantly, the space of the Xuan Realm itself is attached to the Cangyu Realm, and it can directly communicate with this side of heaven and earth as the most original place, and this is also the fundamental way for high-level martial artists to create and cultivate their own exercises, self-realization of martial arts, understanding supernatural powers, and even deducing advanced formulas.
However, the Xuan Realm itself is just the lowest plane void, there is still a blessed land above it, and above the blessed land is the legendary grotto-heaven!
In the more than a month that Shang Xia has been in the Xuanjie, although most of his time is spent familiarizing himself with various martial talismans and making various low-level martial talismans for practice, he always maintains a basic practice time every day.
But even so
Shang Xia can still clearly perceive that his own progress has improved to a certain extent.
This progress not only refers to the improvement of one's own cultivation, but also refers to the gradual shortening of the cycle of the "Four Seasons and Four Scenes Reincarnation Gong" to carry the week.
For Shang Xia at present, the latter is obviously more important.
The magnitude of this progress is actually very small, and if it weren't for Shang Xia's keen sense of divine will, it would probably be extremely difficult to detect.
But this kind of progress is accompanied by the daily practice of the warrior, and over time, it can often form a great improvement.
And this is exactly the most significant role of the Xuan Realm for ordinary warriors.
However, as far as Shang Xia knew, at this time, in the Tongyou Xuan Realm, there were only three fourth-order martial artists who were really cultivating in seclusion, Yuan Zhen, Qian Sitong, and Song You, and now with Shang Xia himself, most of the rest were those martial artists in the academy who had undergone a second transformation.
Among the four fourth-order warriors, except for Shang Xia, who came specifically to make talismans, the other three only Yuan Zhen consolidated his cultivation after advancing to the fourth heaven, while Qian Sitong and Song You had a little accident in the process of advancement, the former suffered some internal injuries, while the latter almost lost control of the origin and went crazy.
Now that Qian and Song have also successfully advanced to the fourth heaven, one is recuperating from their injuries, while the other is still on the edge line that may cause their cultivation to fall off at any time.
Just as Shang Xia was pondering that the environment of the Xuan Realm had adapted and it was time to start making a fourth-order martial talisman, a secret talisman streamer suddenly flew in from outside the Xuan Realm and fell directly into Shang Xia's hands.
Shang Xia only needed a swipe of his divine will to know the content of the secret talisman, so he directly stretched out his hand and swiped in front of him, and a void passage was born out of thin air, extending directly to the entrance of the mysterious world.
"Hahahaha, good nephew, Yun didn't bother you to make talismans this time, right?"
A warm voice came, and a thirty-year-old warrior with a jade-like face entered the mysterious realm, and then walked into the quiet room where Shang Xia was located through the void passage.
The void in the Mysterious Realm was much more fragile than the outer Cangyu Realm, and it was much easier for the fourth-order warriors to control the power of the void here.
Shang Xia clasped his hands and smiled: "It turns out to be Uncle Yun, how can Uncle Shi remember my nephew here today?"
Yun Yichen smiled and said: "I heard that my nephew is making talismans in the mysterious realm, but the number of fourth-order talisman papers prepared by the Fu Hall is insufficient. Although the Yun family is said to have insufficient foundation, the four major families of Tongyou City are in the same breath, how can they watch their virtuous nephew fall into the point of being uncontrollable and remain indifferent? Uncle Shi came with four fourth-order talisman papers this time, although it was just a drop in the bucket, but it was always a heart, and I asked my nephew to accept it."
Shang Xia hurriedly said: "How can this make ......"
Yun Yichen's face turned pale and he said: "Why, my nephew doesn't like this thing about Uncle Shi?"
"Of course not!"
Shang Xia saw that the good intentions were hard to refuse, so he said: "Forget it, if my nephew makes the talisman smoothly, there will be a fourth-order martial talisman to present at that time."
Yun Yichen immediately said unhappily when he heard this: "What does my nephew mean? Uncle Shi gave you this talisman paper just to hone your talisman skills, nothing else!"
Shang Xia insisted: "Uncle Shi doesn't need to say much, otherwise this little nephew of talisman paper will not accept it."
Yun Yichen said embarrassedly: "Hey, hey, look at ......, it seems like Uncle Shi and I came to ask for talismans this time......"
Shang Xia said seriously: "Even if you ask for a talisman, it is already a big loss if you exchange four talisman papers for one talisman, and my nephew has made a lot of money!"
「……」
After sending Yun Yichen away, Shang Xia put the four fourth-order talisman papers in his hand in one place with other fourth-order talisman papers.
At this time, on the Fu platform of Shang Xia's quiet room, the number of fourth-order talisman papers was no longer fourteen, nor nineteen, let alone
Twenty-three, but a full thirty-five!
Because just after the news of Shang Xia entering the Xuan Realm to start making talismans, in the past month or so, situations similar to Yun Yichen had happened many times in the past month.
Among them, Ji Yu of the Ji family personally came to the Xuan Realm to send three, Zhang Haogu personally sent two, Gai Qingzhu asked someone to send two from the two realms of war, Changfeng City master Bu Jingshuang also sent two, Zhao Fengchun of the Zhao family also sent one by the order of his brother Zhao Hengchun, and Huo Wuji, the deacon of the courtyard guard who was also in retreat in the Xuan Realm, actually sent one, and the other one was sent by Sun Haiwei, who was promoted to teach in the outer dormitory of the academy.
These were all favors, even if the Liu, Ji, and Yun families sent a lot of talisman paper, and Shang Xia personally promised to give back a fourth-order talisman.
Thirty-five fourth-order talisman papers, even if Shang Xia thought in advance that someone might take the opportunity to send fourth-order talisman papers to make him owe a favor, he didn't expect to get it all at once.
You must know that the entire Fu Hall gathered the power of most of the academy, so it would not have prepared fourteen rank four Fu papers for him.
This made Shang Xia sigh more than once, he not only underestimated the heritage of Youzhou warriors, but also underestimated their cohesion.
Although there were many ideas that made him owe favors, it had to be said that if Shang Xia's talisman technique was greatly improved this time, he would not be the only one.
I have to say that this kind of cohesion and appeal of everyone picking up firewood made Shang Xia deeply moved.
While making him feel pressured, there is also an internal motivation that makes him feel excited.
This motivation comes not only from pressure, but also from many of his ideas and ideas that he was unable to put into practical action due to material limitations in the past - he can finally let go of his hands and feet and do a big job!
With this excited, excited, yet extremely rational mood, Shang Xia reopened the prohibition guard of the quiet room, completely immersed in the passion of making fourth-order martial talismans.
Shang Xia knew that the opportunity was rare, he had encountered this situation more than once, and it was the best time to start writing talismans.
Shang Xia did not hesitate at all, let alone the slightest idea of saving, and directly opened a newly configured third-order talisman ink.
This was already the best kind of Fu ink that Fu Tang could concoct.
The purple bamboo pen in his right hand was soaked in thick ink, and his left hand kept pinching his fingers to calculate something, Shang Xia didn't even forget to open the shadow stone that had already been hanging above the Fu platform.
Then his attention was more focused than ever, Shang Xia had already poured everything between the Fu pen and the Fu paper in front of him.
After three days without any pause, after a can of third-order talisman ink was used up by one-fifth, Shang Xia had already made his first "Swimming Spirit Shield Fu".
After the first good start, Shang Xia only rested for one day, and then took advantage of the strange state to start the production of the second fourth-order martial talisman.
The fourth-order martial talisman made this time was called "Golden Knife Fu Breaking the Sky", which was Shang Xia's first attempt to make.
Not surprisingly, only half a day later, this Fu making quickly ended in failure.
However, Shang Xia was still immersed in that strange state, and after only half a day of rest, he started the production of the "Breaking the Sky Golden Knife Talisman" again, and then only persisted for one day, and the production of this martial talisman failed again.
This time Shang Xia thought about it carefully all day, and during this whole day, he didn't say a word, didn't eat or drink, and only used his left hand like a butterfly wearing flowers to calculate something.
After staying for a day, Shang Xia picked up the purple bamboo pen again, and everything began to fall into place.
Three days later, with the last rune pattern being put to paper, Shang Xia made a new fourth-order martial talisman - the Golden Knife Talisman for breaking the sky!
