Chapter 81: Chapter 80: Forming Seals with Fingers, Casting Seals into Formations [Seeking more readers!]
Translator: 549690339
In the eyes of the Gathering Qi Bead, the power of incense fire that overflowed has already condensed into a ball, slowly dissipating as time passed.
With a thought.
An empty Gathering Qi Bead appeared.
“Go!”
Xuanqing conjured Mana within his body, transforming it into a pair of illusory giant hands, swapping the empty Gathering Qi Bead with the overflowing one attached to the room beam.
“Now that I temporarily don’t lack Ingots, the incense fire in this Gathering Qi Bead can be kept for later use!” Xuanqing put the removed Gathering Qi Bead into his Game Backpack.
Previously, there was nothing to store incense fire, and since it was poisonous and could not be absorbed, it could only be traded for Ingots. Now with this Gathering Qi Bead, it has become much more convenient.
“One Gathering Qi Bead can only hold a maximum of twenty thousand incenses, it seems a bit insufficient!”
Xuanqing wondered if he should refine some more, place a few more on the god tablet, so it won’t overflow too soon.
Currently.
He only had four Gathering Qi Beads, one of which was given by the Black Wind Town’s Land God. The other three Gathering Qi Beads were refined by him using jade.
Returning to the room.
What caught his eye was the pile of Blank Jade Charms in the corner of the room, which had formed a small hill.
Seeing this scene.
Xuanqing couldn’t help but praise Huai Qingyun, the child did an excellent job, even when he was not at the Taoist temple, he didn’t slack off.
Just in time.
Now he was preparing for Closed-door Cultivation, to practice the “Five Elements Formation” diligently. With so many Blank Jade Charms available, it saved a lot of trouble.
Coming to the little tea table.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged on the futon.
With a wave of his right hand, Mana condensed into a giant hand, scooping up a bunch of jade talismans from the pile in the corner.
Since entering the Turning Qi into God realm, the power of his soul has been greatly enhanced, allowing him to control Mana to condense outside his body, capable of grabbing heavy objects weighing up to 100 pounds.
After such a long time.
With a deep breath.
Right hand holding the carving knife, Xuanqing’s left hand fixed the jade talisman on the little tea table.
With a thought.
“Activate One Hour Unparalleled Intelligence!”
[Ding- Ingots -3600]
As the Ingots decreased, Xuanqing’s eyes glowed with a faint blue, instantly entering into that mysterious state.
In this state, the carving knife in his hand danced up and down.
Even though this process required controlling the Mana in the body, while simultaneously operating, there wasn’t any pause.
In just a short moment.
A ‘Fireball’ jade talisman was refined.
Xuanqing didn’t stop the movement of his hands, fixing another jade talisman and controlling the Mana within his body, continuing to carve.
“The Explosion Talisman, it requires the fusion of the Fireball and Wooden Stake Talisman, these two need to be integrated…”
Xuanqing contemplated the method of refining the combined formation ‘Explosion’ jade talisman while carving the Wooden Stake Talisman.
He was already very familiar with the basic single-attribute jade talismans in the “Five Elements Formation”, even without activating Unparalleled Intelligence, he could still refine them, just that it took more time.
For Xuanqing now.
What he needed to master were ‘talismans formations’ comprised of two, three… or even more attributes combined together.
For example, this Explosion Talisman was composed of the fire attribute ‘Fireball’ and wood attribute ‘Wooden Stake’, which could release a more powerful explosive fire stake.
Just like that.
In this continuous practice, an hour quietly passed by.
[Ding- Unparalleled Intelligence status has been removed!]
Woosh-
His brain felt dizzy.
Xuanqing shook his head, only to find his vision blurred, as if suffering from cataracts, everything in front of him appeared to have multiple shadows.
“Activating Unparalleled Intelligence for such a long time at once is a bit too much!” Xuanqing rubbed his temples.
When opening the Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom, one’s observational skills, learning abilities, and the control of the internal mana will all reach the peak that the body can achieve.
In this state, it is still fine if the duration is short, like an hour of this one-time experience, the spirit has some difficulty bearing it.
However,
on the other side in the Game World, the character he created was constantly practicing in the netherworld, recovering his exhausted spirit.
After a while, he finally regained his strength.
“Continue practicing!”
There was a flash in Xuanqing’s eyes.
With a thought,
“Open one-hour Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom!”
[Beep-Ingot-3600]
Deduct Ingot, enter Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom state, right hand holding the knife, left hand holding the talisman, and repeat the previous movements.
Such extravagant consumption necessarily reminds us of Guanyin, who provided the power of her incense fire, without which he would not dare to do this.
There is no time in practice.
Opening Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom every day and resting after spiritual exhaustion, this kind of indulgence in practicing the Five Elements Talisman Array is like cultivation, not feeling the passage of time.
Five days quietly passed.
After these five days of closed-door cultivation practice, the practice of “Five Elements Formation” has reached its final stage.
In the room,
he once again recovered from spiritual exhaustion.
“Open one-minute Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom!” Xuanqing silently uttered in his heart.
[Beep-Ingot-60]
The moment the ingots were deducted, he entered that mysterious state.
However,
surprisingly, even though he was practicing the “Five Elements Formation,” he didn’t have anything in front of him.
That is because, in the “Five Elements Formation,” the final practice does not require engraving knives, nor the existence of jade talismans.
Condensing the fingers into a brush, drawing with the fingers, and casting the talismans into a formation!
This is the final practice in the Five Elements Talisman Array.
Xuanqing closed his eyes, and under the state of Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom, his whole being was frantically analyzing information about this realm.
One second… two seconds… ten seconds!
Finally,
“Condensing fingers into a brush!” Xuanqing’s eyes snapped open, filled with a strong gleam.
Both his left and right hands were extended, the tips of his index fingers glowing blue, and as the mana surged, they seemed to turn into two talisman brushes.
Yes,
under the state of Absolute Holiness Abandonment of Wisdom, he would paint with both hands simultaneously!
Following this,
“Draw with the fingers!” Xuanqing silently commanded in his heart.
With the double brushes made of air, his hands danced like wandering dragons, creating two translucent, ethereal runes from seemingly nothing.
These two illusory talismans were: Spring Wood Talisman and Condensing Mist Talisman.
Yes,
it was indeed… the Bewilderment Formation!
“Let the talismans form the formation!”
“Order!” With a loud shout from Xuanqing, his hands opened into palms, pushing the two talismans forward into the void.
In an instant,
the two illusory talismans merged into one, turning into a dense mist that permeated the air.
Seeing this scene,
Xuanqing knew that the Bewilderment Formation… had succeeded.
Although Qingping Temple was empty at night, to avoid frightening Huai Qingyun, who was nearby, Xuanqing dissolved the Bewilderment Formation immediately.
“Dissipate!”
The pervasive mist dispersed, and everything returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened..
