Chapter 85

Shi Mu sat cross legged on the stone bed, with a look of meditation on his face.

Fifty thousand taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket for the current cultivation consumption, and with the improvement of skill, the consumption will only increase. It seems that it's time to study the talismans and array classics brought back from the Sutra Pavilion.

Thinking of this, Shi Mu turned his right hand, took out the jade slips of the lingfu treasure Sutra recording the way of talisman, gently pasted them on his forehead, and a large number of words immediately appeared in his mind.

After half a ring, he took a breath, put down the jade slips in his hand, rubbed his swollen head, took out the silver jade slips recording "the introduction to array Diagrams" and continued to understand.

Shi Mu spent a long time to read the two classics. He found that uncle Ju was right that day. There is a great relationship between the way of array and the art of talisman. It can almost be said that talisman is a mini partial realization of array.

Therefore, from the perspective of mystery and complexity, the technique of talisman should be much simpler than that of array. Of course, its power can not be compared with that of formal array, but talisman has a series of advantages, such as easy to carry, instant casting and little mana consumption.

However, if you really want to draw runes, it is not enough to understand the way of array. You must practice hundreds of times before you can get a preliminary introduction to drawing runes.

In a word, talisman drawing itself is also a broad and profound way of Warlock.

After understanding the relationship between the two, Shi Mu held his chin in one hand and meditated again.

Although the way of array and the way of talisman are interlinked in many places and can be used for reference, the way of talisman is relatively simple. It's easy before difficult. When you have a certain foundation, it will be much easier to learn the way of array in the future.

Shi Mu made up his mind, so he no longer hesitated to put away the silver jade slips recording the "Introduction to array map", and began to carefully understand the introduction of basic runes in the first half of the "lingfubaojing".

According to the "holy talisman Sutra", rune is a kind of heaven given text containing the power of heaven and earth. Even if it is alone, it also has the power of subtle laws. In it, whether a short spiritual stripe or a complex Dharma array prohibition, it is developed on the basis of Rune.

Therefore, if you want to make runes, you must first understand and draw individual runes, and all runes are composed of the most basic five element runes. As long as you can master the runes representing the basic five elements first, you can condense more and more complex other runes through different combinations.

But what made Shi Mu uneasy was that according to the description in the classics, it was extremely difficult to understand the rune. I don't know how many apprentices who wanted to be a rune master could not even draw a five element Rune after several years of hard understanding. Finally, they had to give up.

Shi Mu looks a little ugly when he sees here.

However, since he has become a warlock apprentice and has spent such a high price to exchange relevant classics, it is naturally impossible for him to retreat like this.

As soon as he thought about this, a trace of perseverance flashed in his eyes. He crossed his knees, took a deep breath and slowly adjusted his body state.

It was not until he breathed more and more slowly and his mind was a little cool that he looked dignified and picked up the jade slips and was ready to understand the first five element Rune recorded in ancient books.

There are hundreds of basic runes recorded in the lingfubao Sutra. Shi Mu first chose a fire attribute rune that seems to have the least strokes and is the simplest.

Three days passed in the twinkling of an eye.

Shi Mu sat on the stone bed with his eyes closed and his body motionless,.

In his mind, a fuzzy red light appeared at the moment, like a living creature, constantly stretching and deforming, as if he wanted to turn into a word.

Gradually, the upper part of the red light mass, after a burst of changes, gradually turned into half a seemingly strange symbol, while the lower part continued to elongate and change.

At this moment, the red light suddenly shook and burst with a bang.

Shi Mu groaned, opened his eyes, sweated heavily, his chest fluctuated, and his face was speechless pale.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and touched it under his nose. It was wet and dripping with crimson nose blood.

Shi Mu was stunned, then sighed, wiped away his nose blood, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the dark sky outside, and was stunned.

The comprehension of these runes was as difficult as what was said in the classics. He couldn't understand the first seemingly simplest fire attribute Rune thoroughly for three days.

"Don't you really have the talent to become a talisman?" Shi Mu thought so and couldn't help sighing.

Understanding runes is only the first step. There are two steps to successfully make a rune.

After understanding the rune, you should depict it on the rune paper and draw it into a rune matrix, which is the second step.

Every five element spell, even the simplest fireball spell, has a corresponding Rune array. A simple Rune array can be composed of five or six runes, while a complex Rune array can be composed of dozens or hundreds of runes.

When depicting the rune matrix, no subtle errors are allowed. Each Rune must be extremely accurate, which requires years of practice. After depicting the rune matrix, there is a relatively simple third step, which is spiritual irrigation. This step is to pour spiritual power into the drawn Rune array, which is equivalent to storing the mana required to cast the spell on the rune paper in advance. In the future, only a little guidance can stimulate the power of the rune. However, this step seems simple and has many limitations. Most talismans have only a few two or three kinds of element sensing power, that is, when infusing the spirit, they can only mobilize these kinds of attribute spiritual power. Others can only be supplemented by the corresponding spiritual stone, but the price of the spiritual stone itself is not cheap. Therefore, these three steps have baffled many people“ I have just come into contact with talismans, and it is still too early to say the next two steps. " Shi Mu was silent for a long time and shook his head to dispel some depressed thoughts in his heart. He looked out of the window and stood unconscious for less than half an hour. Gradually, a curved moon rose from the horizon and shed a faint silver glow. Shi Mu's face was happy. The weather has been bad these days. The moon rarely appears at night. He hasn't practiced in a dream for some days. He put the matter down temporarily, cleaned up the things in the house, quietly opened the door and walked out. A quarter of an hour later, he came to the grass in the woods in the valley. Shi Mu sat down cross legged. His mind was empty and soon entered a dream. In the dream, under the bright moon, the White Ape put his hands to the sky and took a moon swallowing posture. Countless light spots appeared in the sky. They gathered towards the White Ape as usual and integrated into his mind through his pupils. In the heart of stone shepherd, the speed of light gathering is faster and faster than before. It seems that with the improvement of his mana, the speed of absorbing moon essence is quickening gradually. As more and more light spots flew into his mind, wisps of cool feeling gathered, and the discomfort caused by the failure of understanding runes soon disappeared. These dense light spots turned into white fog in Shi Mu's mind, and then gradually gathered together into milky white clouds as usual. Shi Mu's heart moved. The milky white cloud was a little similar to the red light in his mind when he understood the rune before!
