Chapter 40 Black Seed Sprouting

Zhou Changwang spread a piece of talisman paper flat on the table.

This piece of talisman paper had been cut to fit, half a foot long and three inches wide.

Zhou Changwang held the talisman pen in one hand, and the spiritual power in his body moved slightly. After feeling that his spiritual power could flow smoothly in the talisman pen, he moved it to the talisman blood ink beside him and dipped it in the talisman ink.

He controlled it to hang on the talisman paper until the tip of the pen was full.

"Let's start!"

The spiritual power surged, and Zhou Changwang put down his pen. The spiritual power continued to pass through the talisman pen, into the talisman ink, and then along the tip of the pen, it was drawn on the talisman.

This actually requires a very high level of spiritual power control for the talisman maker.

After all, it needs to be transmitted through the talisman pen, it needs to be written on the talisman, and it is also necessary to ensure that the spiritual power is balanced, and the spell structure is complete without any changes... Even if the fireball talisman is a spell that Zhou Changwang is very familiar with, he has already practiced it to the mastery level.

But when he drew the first rune structure,

Swish!

The talisman paper was pierced by him.

"The spiritual power input is too large.

Also, the rune structure written is not regular. I didn't consider the size of the talisman paper. Even if I continue to draw, I will inevitably fail..."

Seeing this, Zhou Changwang took a deep breath and silently summed up his experience.

He knew long ago that making talismans is not a simple matter and requires constant trial and error.

Moreover, practicing with blank paper is not enough.

Because the rune structure can only be formed by spiritual power. Practicing with blank paper can only form its shape, not its spirit. The two are worlds apart.

Even if the drawing is similar, the two are not the same thing.

"Continue!"

After the failure, Zhou Changwang was not discouraged. He had a very good mentality and knew that he could not succeed in one go.

Not to mention him, even a genius like Zongmen Daozi is the same.

Success achieved overnight can only be attributed to luck.

Talent?

It does not exist.

The second time, Zhou Changwang announced failure before he finished drawing the first rune structure.

The third time, one and a half.

The fourth time, he failed the moment he put pen to paper, because of insufficient spiritual power control, the talisman ink dripped.

…

Zhou Changwang tried again and again, and failed again and again.

Even though he had a calm mind, enough patience and psychological preparation, his mood gradually became impetuous.

Finally, he simply put down his pen and stopped.

He knew that he was no longer suitable to continue drawing talismans today.

"No wonder it is rumored that some talisman makers have to burn incense and pray before starting to make talismans, and even prepare many rituals.

Such continuous failures are really unbearable for anyone.

I can only rely on metaphysics for assistance."

Zhou Changwang sighed that it took him a long time to calm down his previous impetuous spirit.

As for the so-called "metaphysics", he actually knew that it was some spiritual auxiliary means. For example, the incense people burned was calming incense, restoring incense, and even refreshing incense that could increase the ability of thinking. The prayer was also to a certain talisman master, who had his own help in the dark. The ritual used might also be a certain technique, a method...

It can't be said that it is groundless.

"I drew a total of 17 talismans, but none of them succeeded.

It seems that the initial consumption of drawing talismans is not small."

Zhou Changwang calculated slightly and felt a little painful.

He spent nine low-grade spirit stones to buy talisman pens and ink, plus talisman paper. Although the talisman paper he had was obtained from the storage bag, there were two stacks, about 100 sheets.

But in the outside world, a stack of ordinary talisman paper costs one low-grade spirit stone.

In other words, if a casual cultivator wants to become a talisman maker, without considering the value of the talisman inheritance itself, it will cost at least ten low-grade spirit stones.

The price of low-level talismans is that one low-grade spirit stone can buy a stack, that is, ten pieces...

"No wonder people say that the life of cultivating immortals is not easy.

It is really not that easy to survive here."

Zhou Changwang shook his head.

After realizing that his spiritual power had recovered a little, he took out the three black seeds.

One after another, the birth-inducing spells were continuously used and fell on these three seeds.

Occasionally, the dead wood rejuvenation spell would be used.

It must be said that the dead wood rejuvenation spell is definitely a very practical spell.

Not only can it be used for treatment, but it is also very effective in planting spiritual plants.

Now his spiritual field has already felt the convenience of this spell. One of the most prominent features is that the spiritual rice in his spiritual field has gradually caught up with the growth of the spiritual rice in Lao Xu's spiritual field and has completely matured.

Tomorrow will be the time for his spiritual field to be harvested.

It has to be harvested.

The price of spiritual rice has been falling.

A few days ago, it was still 13 jin per piece of low-grade spirit stone. In the evening, he got the news that the price of spirit rice had dropped to 14 jin per piece of low-grade spirit stone.

If he didn't sell it, it would probably drop to 15 jin...

The loss would be huge.

A dead tree rejuvenation spell fell, and dots of rosy light fell on the three seeds. In a trance, it seemed that there was endless spiritual light flickering in them.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

After a stick of incense.

The spiritual light dissipated, and the three seeds were still the same as before, without any change.

"These three seeds, can't they really be dead seeds?"

Zhou Changwang couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

After so many birth-inducing spells, even if they are really dead trees, they should sprout.

Fortunately, he originally only used it as a tool for practicing magic, and the hope he reported was not great.

After calming down, he continued to cast spells.

One after another birth-inducing spells continued to fall on the three seeds.

Since his cultivation broke through to the third level of the Qi Refining Stage, not only has his cultivation become more solid, but the degree of spiritual power condensation has also increased a lot.

Therefore, when his spiritual power is perfect, the number of birth-inducing spells he can cast has also increased greatly.

Suddenly.

As another induction spell fell.

He only felt that at this moment, a lot of experience in practicing induction spells emerged in his mind.

It was as if at this moment, he had practiced induction spells thousands of times.

"Is the induction spell perfect?"

Almost instantly, Zhou Changwang reacted and looked at the attribute panel.

Sure enough, he saw the words "induction spell (great success 1/800)" in the spell column.

"Sure enough, it's perfect."

Zhou Changwang was delighted.

This was the first perfect spell he had mastered.

He almost couldn't wait to try it out and see the difference of this spell.

Then, his mind moved.

Almost in an instant, a little bit of spiritual light gathered in front of him.

Instant!

Zhou Changwang was stunned.

Then he quickly reacted.

This might be the characteristic of the perfect induction spell.

It can be cast instantly by him.

Then he sprinkled the spiritual light directly on the black seed.

Zizizizizi...

Then, he saw a young sprout on the black seed that had been motionless, growing stubbornly and breaking out of the shell.

The seed sprouted?
