Chapter 309 Another historical talent
Tan Liutong put down the phone, filled with surprise.
He is a late-stage foundation-building teacher in the Tao Palace, responsible for the courses on the Tao of Talismans. Although he himself is not a real Jindan master, when it comes to the way of talismans, he is a genuine third-level talisman master.
Being able to advance one of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals to the third level when he was building his foundation, this shows how talented he is in the way of talismans.
It is precisely because of his existence that there is no real Jindan person in charge of the Fulu Department of Baiyi Branch.
In the twenty-one Taoist palaces above the seven main stars of the Immortal Alliance, there are many foundation-building monks among the teachers who teach the various arts of cultivating immortals.
However, to be able to secure this position, the undergraduate level must reach the third level.
This is a hard red bottom line that no one can violate.
Tan Liutong has long known the name of this Daozi, and he also watched the battle when Xu Jun was defending the ring. He deeply understands that the strength of this Daozi class is not an exaggeration even if it is described as the best in history.
I heard that when Daozi chose to cultivate the immortal arts, he put the main subject above the formation.
At that time, Tan Liutong felt quite regretful, but now...
Daozi wants to practice the way of talismans?
Thinking about it, Daozi is now a foundation-building monk and has a lifespan of at least two hundred and forty years. With his incredible talent, it is not surprising that he would transfer part of his energy to cultivating immortality and various arts.
In fact, generally speaking, only Jindan Zhenren will be distracted from cultivating the immortal arts when encountering a neck.
And once you study one of them, you will most likely not study the others.
But Xu Jun was different. When he thought of the various talents and miracles that Daozi showed after entering the Dao Palace, Tan Liutong's heart was filled with fire.
Suddenly standing up, Tan Liutong spread out his body and walked towards the back mountain.
Although he and Daozi have no friendship, they are both from the Natural Dao Palace, so it makes sense for him to visit him. As for teachers taking the initiative to meet students and so on...
It was rare that Daozi was interested. If he didn't hurry up, it would be too late for him to cry if Daozi changed his interest.
Soon, Tan Liutong arrived at Daozi's cave. He coughed heavily and said loudly, "Is Daozi here?"
The cave door opened immediately, and Xu Jun's voice sounded.
"Teacher Tan, please come in."
Tan Liutong was not a well-known figure in the Dao Palace. Apart from the students and some teachers who chose the Tao of Talisman, there were many people who didn't know about him.
However, Xu Jun is so smart. After his spiritual sense sensed Tan Liutong, he immediately connected to the network with the watch, performed facial recognition, and instantly learned his identity.
Lecturer of Fu Dao Science at Shui Yuan Xing Natural Dao Palace Baiyi Branch.
As a result, Xu Jun roughly guessed the purpose of his visit and was quite happy.
Xu Jun originally planned to take some time to look for this person, but he didn't expect him to come uninvited.
Haha, the logistics department is also a big sieve.
Tan Liutong entered the cave and immediately saw Xu Jun and a set of talisman-making tools in front of the table. He was secretly happy. It seemed that Zuo Yanshi had not deceived him, and Daozi was indeed interested in the talisman.
This is a Taoist, and he is also extremely talented. He is a super genius who can do whatever he learns.
After studying the formation for several months, he represented the Natural Dao Palace in the Three Dao Palace Elite Competition and won the honor of being the first in the formation. This made the current Formation Department so proud that he had long been jealous of him.
Now it is rare that Daozi is interested in the new Baiyi. It would be foolish for him not to seize this opportunity.
"Daozi, you are practicing the talisman." Tan Liutong said with a smile.
Xu Jun put away his talisman pen, nodded slightly, and said, "I'm just thinking about it. Teacher Tan came just in time. Please give me some advice."
Tan Liutong waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, but since Daozi is interested in the way of talismans, I will show my shame."
If he were a real Jin Dan, he might be able to put on a little airs. But as for foundation building and cultivation, it’s better to have some self-awareness.
"Excuse me, Taozi, how long have you been studying talismans?"
Xu Jun thought for a while and said, "More than twenty days."
Although he had read "The First Interpretation of the Talisman" before, reading does not mean practicing. If we talk about the actual practice time, it is indeed only more than twenty days.
Tan Liutong thought for a while and said: "Daozi should have tried to practice the way of talismans after returning from Fengshan Blessed Land."
Xu Jun nodded slightly and said, "Exactly."
Tan Liutong knew that something must have happened to Daozi in Fengshan Paradise, so he became interested in the way of talismans on a whim.
However, he did not pursue the matter. No matter what happens, as long as Daozi is interested, that's a good thing.
"What kind of talisman did Daozi learn for the first time?"
"Spirit Gathering Talisman."
"How about asking Daozi to refine one?"
"good."
Xu Jun did not refuse. He was self-aware. Since he wanted to ask others for advice, of course he had to show his true strength.
Spreading out the talisman paper, taking out the talisman pen and filling it with spiritual ink, Xu Jun had a clear idea in his mind and wrote like a god. He completed it in one go and finished drawing a spiritual gathering talisman in an instant.
"Huh?"
Tan Liutong's face changed slightly and he raised his head, with an indescribable look of surprise in his eyes.
Xu Jun is a foundation-building monk, and he is holding a set of second-level equipment. It is not unusual to successfully draw the spirit-gathering talisman.
But... these skilled brushwork and movements, do you think they are just the result of more than 20 days of practice?
Tan Liutong's heartbeat couldn't help but beat a few beats faster at this moment.
He had long heard that Daozi Xu Jun's talent was unparalleled, otherwise he would not have become a Daozi in the Natural Dao Palace at this age.
Well, in addition to his talents in swordsmanship and physical skills, his talents in cultivating immortals and various arts are also at a historical level.
Although he didn't doubt it before, he didn't know what seeing is believing until he saw it with his own eyes. Being able to practice to this level in more than 20 days, to say that they are the best in history is naturally an exaggeration, but they are definitely among the top few.
"Teacher Tan, please give me some advice." Xu Jun put down his talisman pen and said seriously.
Tan Liutong took a deep breath and said slowly: "Daozi, is this... really the result of your twenty days of practice?"
Xu Jun nodded without hesitation and said: "The student is dull and has only learned the five basic talismans in "The First Interpretation of Talismans"."
Tan Liutong was startled, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
What does it mean?
He hesitated for a moment and said: "The other four talismans... you can also draw them and see."
"good."
Xu Jun took action without saying a word. After a moment, the Decontamination Talisman, Water Gathering Talisman, Light Body Talisman and Flashing Talisman fell on the paper one by one.
Xu Jun drew five talismans in one breath. Although there was nothing amazing about it, the success rate was 100%, and he was extremely skillful. When he took action, he had a pleasing feeling.
Tan Liutong's expression changed unpredictably, and his heart beat faster.
Establishing the foundation and learning talismans is much easier than practicing Qi. Because it has enough mana and the assistance of divine consciousness, it is even easier to get started.
But no matter how simple it is, if you want to master a talisman to such a proficient level, it will not be achieved in just one month.
You know, this is the Tao of Talismans, which is known as the foundation of all skills among the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals.
From Tan Liutong's point of view, it has at least the effect of three or four months of hard work.
Of course, if Xu Jun only mastered one talisman, then it would only be a little out of the ordinary and still within the scope of his understanding.
Such talent, although rare, is not an exaggeration. At the very least, there are similar geniuses in today's Fu Ruike.
However, in twenty days, he was able to practice all five talismans to such a proficient level...
The difficulty is definitely not five times greater, but more than ten times greater!
Tan Liutong took a deep breath and felt that his heart was almost beating out of his mouth. He looked at Xu Jun with bright eyes and asked again: "Daozi, are these...all the results of more than twenty days of practice?"
Xu Jun frowned slightly and said, "You don't believe it?"
Tan Liutong said quickly: "Believe it, I believe it, of course I believe it."
Xu Jun nodded slightly and added in his heart that this is the result of Xu Fei and me.
In the world of thunder, time passes at a speed of 1:12. Together with Xu Jun and Xu Fei, they can master the five talismans to this point in a limited time.
However, there is no need to explain all this to others.
Xu Jun believes that as long as Xu Fei does not fall and the Thunder World is immortal, he will definitely be able to maintain this speed of practice.
Tan Liutong gave a thumbs up and said: "Daozi is indeed a proud man of heaven. Your talent in the way of talismans is probably... the highest in the history of Dao Palace."
He originally wanted to say "No. 1 in history", but after thinking about it, he was embarrassed to say it, so he had to change it temporarily.
Xu Jun waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your praise, Teacher Tan. I still want to ask you for advice."
"Haha, don't take it seriously. Let's compare notes." Tan Liutong laughed and said, "I have a hunch that maybe by the time Daozi graduates, your achievements in the way of talismans will surpass mine."
Xu Jun was startled, his thoughts racing. I just saw on the official website of Daogong that Teacher Tan seems to be 158 years old this year.
For a foundation-building monk, this age is definitely considered to be in the prime of life. If you have some family background and take a few life-extending pills, you will at least have more than a hundred years of life.
More importantly, if the attack on the golden elixir is successful, the life span will be greatly extended.
However, 158 years old!
Xu Jun calculated in his mind.
It has been more than sixteen years since he graduated from Taoist Palace.
If calculated based on the time of 1:12, that would be more than 190 years. This is just the result of Xu Fei's efforts alone. If coupled with his accidental assistance...
Xu Jun's eyes when looking at Tan Liutong also changed slightly. Teacher Tan has a sharp eye!
With a calm smile, Xu Jun said: "Thank you very much, Teacher Tan, for the compliment. The students will definitely work hard."
Tan Liutong was stunned. I was just polite, but Daozi's answer seemed to be taken for granted. Could it be that he really thought that in just ten years, he could elevate the Tao of Talismans to the third level?
If another student from the Fu Lu Department were here, Tan Liutong would have scolded him long ago.
But looking at Xu Jun's plain face, he just felt... it seemed that maybe, maybe, there was really the slightest possibility.
Although rationality told him that more than ten years was too short a time, and it might not be enough to lay the foundation for such a broad and profound immortal art as the Tao of Talismans, let alone to advance to the third level.
However, his sensibility was stunned and he felt a strong confidence from Xu Jun.
To what extent does this confidence reach?
It had reached the point where even he was being greatly affected without even realizing it.
Shaking his head vigorously, Tan Liutong put away all kinds of distracting thoughts, flipped his wrist, took out his talisman pen, and said: "Daozi, when you write, there are some things you can change slightly."
He dipped it in ink and began to draw.
The level of a third-level talisman master is of course far beyond what Xu Jun, who has just started, can compare to.
Although Xu Jun had watched several videos related to this before, no matter how many videos he watched, he would still be unable to give face-to-face guidance from a master of talismans.
Soon, five talismans were drawn in Tan Liutong's hands like flowing water.
Xu Jun watched and listened, his face beaming with joy and intoxication.
The two men named Xu spent more than half a year drawing countless five-way talismans. It can be said that they can draw them with their eyes closed.
I am very familiar with various little techniques in the drawing process, especially because the talisman pen used is not good, so when drawing, I pay more attention to the details and strive for excellence.
Xu Jun always thought that the two of them had worked so **** these five talismans, and they should have mastered them to the extreme.
However, when the real third-level talisman master began to draw and describe it, Xu Juncai suddenly had a strange feeling.
It turns out that this is the right way to draw!
He suddenly felt that he was just a frog in the well before. Tan Liutong's narration and teachings were like opening a window for him, allowing him to realize the broader world outside.
Tan Liutong commented on the five talismans one by one. After mentioning the points, he said: "Daozi, these are some of my insights. You..." His tone paused because he saw Xu Jun's eyes staring at the talismans and looking at him. The words seemed to fall on deaf ears.
Tan Liutong was very familiar with such actions and attitudes.
This is entering into some kind of realization.
He shook his head slightly, without disturbing himself, put away his talisman pen, and quietly exited Xu Jun's cave.
Because he knew that in this state, it was best not to disturb him. However, he felt more and more envious in his heart. He was truly worthy of being the proud man of heaven. He just saw himself drawing it once and he realized something.
However, he did not know that just after he left the cave and the defensive restrictions were automatically activated, Xu Jun, who seemed to be immersed in enlightenment, immediately raised his head.
Tan Liutong's guidance gave him a huge surprise and inspiration. But if you talk about enlightenment or something, it’s false.
But Xu Jun understood that if he didn't pretend to be pretentious. Then Tan Liutong will definitely let himself draw it again.
Although he has gained a new insight, what results do he want to show that will amaze Tan Liutong based on this insight?
Give me a break.
Xu Jun thought that if he wrote immediately, Tan Liutong would be more likely to see through the truth.
After all, Xu Jun and Xu Fei's talents in the way of talismans are actually very good. The reason why he was able to show the ability that surprised Tan Liutong was due to time and hard work.
Therefore, Xu Jun did not want to expose his flaws easily.
Sure enough, after he pretended to have some insights, Tan Liutong immediately left wisely and thoughtfully closed the door of the cave for him.
Xu Jun immediately sat down cross-legged and entered the thunder world again.
It's just that this time he entered, not as a clone, but just as a spiritual thought, and put Tan Liutong's guidance experience into the past. At the same time, Xu Jun was also involved in various insights and thoughts about these five talismans.
In the Thunder World, Xu Fei, who was on his way, frowned.
He thought for a while, found a random cave in the mountains, killed the aborigine inside, a bear, and then began to draw talismans here.
Twelve whole days.
In the previous ten days, Xu Fei concentrated on studying a talisman every two days. With the whole-hearted cooperation of the two men named Xu, their drawing level has been greatly improved.
They have spent nearly a year on these five talismans and have already thoroughly studied these five primary talismans.
Now that I have received guidance from an expert, it can be said that I have a sudden enlightenment, and I can also say that I have accumulated a lot of experience.
Coupled with the powerful mana and spiritual consciousness in the foundation building stage, only then can we truly master these five talismans.
In the next two days, the two men surnamed Xu picked up the missing pieces and drew these five talismans alternately, even using ordinary first-level talisman pens (after obtaining a large number of spiritual stones, the talisman drawing equipment in the Thunder World also got With appropriate updates), Xu Fei also drew a certain style.
After exhaling a long breath, Xu Jun stood up in the natural palace cave.
one day!
One day here was equivalent to twelve days of hard study and practice.
Looking at the talisman paper on the table, Xu Jun's heart moved slightly. He held the talisman pen in his hand and began to draw it again. Soon, five talismans were drawn one by one. Xu Jun looked at them for a moment and laughed loudly with satisfaction.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he opened the door of the cave and used his watch to contact Tan Liutong.
The results must be shown as soon as possible, otherwise it would not be surprising if it takes another ten days and a half.
Sure enough, after receiving Xu Jun's call, Tan Liutong put down the work at hand without hesitation and rushed over as quickly as possible.
However, on the way over, Tan Liutong was also beating in his heart.
It has only been one day, but Daozi has already completed his enlightenment?
If it was just a talisman, Tan Liutong did not doubt it. But the problem is, this has five talismans. Although they are all low-level basic talismans, aren't all great achievements built from the foundation?
The stronger a person is, the less he will ignore the basics.
Therefore, even after receiving a call from Xu Jun, Tan Liutong was inevitably a little uneasy. He even regretted that it would have been better if he had not taught five talismans in succession one day ago, but only focused on one of them.
Hey, I don’t know what’s going on. Could it be that I was obsessed with something yesterday?
Finally, we arrived at Xu Jun’s cave.
"Teacher Tan, after listening to your advice yesterday, I felt a lot." Xu Jun cupped his fists and saluted, and said solemnly: "Now I want to draw a few more pictures, please give me your advice."
"Hey, I don't think so." Tan Liutong said quickly, "Taozi, please."
Facing Zi Zizi, Tan Liutong was polite and respectful.
Xu Jun nodded, spread out the talisman paper, dipped it in spiritual ink, and began to draw it from scratch.
As soon as he saw Xu Jun put pen to paper, Tan Liutong's eyelids couldn't help but twitch a few times.
A day ago, Xu Jun was also drawing talismans here. At that time, Xu Jun wrote quickly and completed the five talismans quickly. His proficiency was so high that Tan Liutong was very surprised.
But at this moment, Xu Jun's actions were completely different.
When he wrote, he kept his eyes straight. The hand holding the talisman pen seemed to be as heavy as a thousand catties, but as light as a feather.
When writing, it is even more elegant and flying. In some places, the strokes are fleeting, but in other places, the strokes are emphasized.
Tan Liutong felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Lift lightly but not heavy, neither slow nor fast, everyone's style!
At this moment, Tan Liutong's heart seemed to be trembling slightly.
Excellent product!
Although Xu Jun has not yet completed the painting, Tan Liutong already has a strong premonition.
Sure enough, when the first spirit-gathering talisman was completed, there was fluorescent light on it, and it was clearly a high-quality talisman.
The second one, the third one...the fifth one!
Five different talismans have all been drawn, and without exception, they are all high-quality talismans.
Tan Liutong watched all this silently, the horror in his heart was really indescribable.
Xu Jun put down his talisman pen, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Teacher Tan, thank you for your advice."
He naturally understood that there was a huge difference in his attainments on these five talismans before and after this day.
Without Tan Liutong's narration and guidance, if Xu Jun had slowly explored on his own, he would have definitely broken through and reached the level of a regular high-quality product.
However, it is really hard to say when it will be achieved.
Therefore, Xu Jun still has to bear Tan Liutong's advice.
After a while, Tan Liutong nodded slowly and said: "Daozi's talent in the way of talismans... is indeed very high." He clicked on his watch a few times and said: "I recommend some readings related to talismans to Daozi. , if Daozi is interested, please read it as soon as possible.”
Xu Jun's eyes flashed with surprise, and he solemnly said: "Thank you, Teacher Tan."
Self-taught is certainly a skill, but if you have the guidance of a famous teacher, the efficiency will definitely be far higher than the former. Xu Jun is not a stubborn person. Since he has the guidance of a teacher, of course he will accept the teaching with an open mind.
Tan Liutong pointed to the table and said, "Daozi, how about giving me these five talismans?"
Xu Jun said generously: "Teacher Tan, just take it."
Although I don’t know why Teacher Tan is interested in these five unsavory talismans, Xu Jun will naturally not refuse this small request.
Tan Liutong rolled up his hands, put away the five fine talismans, and left quickly, fearing that if he took a step too late, he would not be able to help but show jealousy.
Away from Xu Jundong Mansion, he pondered for a moment and rushed towards the executive vice president's office.
As for Xu Jun himself, he read the information recommended by Tan Liutong honestly and conscientiously.
His talent is average, and of course he has to work hard to maintain his title as the number one person in history.
Well, definitely can’t slack off!
