The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The moon shone brightly from high up in the sky. Strands of pure white light shone down from the sky, bringing a gentle luster to the night sky.

The east side of Crimson Nimbus Martial School was the living areas of each subject. The living areas were divided into eight areas according to the subject. Each area was clearly separated from the others and there weren't many people coming and going.



Currently, Ling Yan was sitting in a small room that was about ten square meters. The room's facilities were very simple: a bed, a wardrobe, a table, and two stools.

But in front of Ling Yan, there was a pile of all sorts of different materials. These were the materials needed to draw an elementary true essence symbol paper.

According to the rules of the Symbol Master Guild, once a special cabinet is opened, the cabinet cannot be empty for more than seven days. One must sell the rune within seven days, or else the original owner's qualification will be revoked and the lease will be given to someone else.

For the current Ling Yan, a hundred taels of silver to open a special counter was still very precious. Thus, after Ling Yan finished his entrance exam at Crimson Nimbus Guild, he went to the Symbol Master Guild's exchange.

The top grade elementary true essence talisman from before had actually been sold. This caused Ling Yan to feel a bit happy; it seemed that there really was someone who knew what was good for him.

Thus, after deducting the 10% administration fee, Ling Yan had 1,355 silver taels in his hands. He used 552 silver taels to buy the materials for drawing the runes, while he also bought the rest for the body refining herbs.

Ling Yan let out a light sigh of relief and closed his eyes. He sat down cross-legged, letting his mind relax. He had to adjust his condition and seize every moment to draw out the peak grade elementary true essence talisman in the middle of the night.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ling Yan opened his eyes. A bright light flashed past his eyes and the drawing of a rune began!

Just like before, Ling Yan was extremely familiar with the technique.

The first step, burn!

Ling Yan extended his left hand forward, and a stream of blood energy flowed out from the tip of his finger. Immediately after, the two Coins of Voodoo Bone Grass were wrapped up in this blood energy and slowly floated into the air. As it rose up, the Voodoo Bone Grass seemed to be ignited by fire, emitting a series of crackling sounds.

Ling Yan's right hand stretched out at almost the same time and his blood energy surged out, wrapping around one or two algae. The algae rose up and a raging fire was ignited on the leaves, creating crackling sounds.

Second step, extraction!

Ling Yan pressed a strange frequency with his left and right hands, and the flames on the Witch Bone Grass and the single leaf algae also began to change color, slowly changing from red to purple. Then, visible to the naked eye, slivers of liquid began to slowly condense on the leaves, about to drip down.

Ling Yan's eyes became cold as two streams of blood power once again rushed out from his hands, stopping the droplets of liquid in midair. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn out, the single-leaf algae and the voodoo bone grass were all burnt away, and in their place were two crystal clear, dark-green liquid droplets.

The third step, fuse!

Because he had previously experienced it, Ling Yan's face remained calm as he drew, and his heart was completely calm. Even if he failed, it did not stir up any ripples in his heart.

Just like that, four hours later, Ling Yan stopped what he was doing. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of impure air, and a look of delight flashed across his face.

Of the materials for three elementary true essence talismans, he had successfully drawn one. His luck was pretty good!

If he was a bit more proficient, then presumably his success rate would be greatly increased. In the future, he wouldn't need to worry about not having enough body refining resources!

Ling Yan clenched his fists tightly, and a huge stone in his heart quietly fell to the ground.
