Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 234 - 140: Trying New Talents, Analyzing Talisman Source
"Young Hero Chu, come, come, let me first take you to the inn to settle in.
Once Li Song finishes recruiting people here, we’ll set off together."
Seeing the actions of the middle-aged merchant, Li Song opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.
He just kept staring at the backs of the middle-aged merchant and Chu Ning, with his brows slightly furrowed.
Chu Ning’s senses were sharp; even without intentionally releasing his Divine Sense, he could sense Li Song’s actions to some extent.
With a smile, Chu Ning pretended not to notice, continuing his conversation with the middle-aged merchant.
From the merchant’s words, Chu Ning learned that his name was Cheng Jinhe.
He actually came from the direction of Feiyan Dock, originally leading a team of guards himself.
However, on the way, they encountered a group of bandits. Although the goods were saved, many guards were killed or injured.
So this time, when transporting jade back, he thought of recruiting more martial arts masters as guards.
When the middle-aged merchant asked about Chu Ning’s situation, Chu Ning simply said he was a local and made up some stories.
All following the knowledge Chu Ning currently had, naturally, he wouldn’t let the merchant detect any flaws.
The two arrived at the White Cloud Inn in the city, where Cheng Jinhe arranged an upper room for Chu Ning.
After getting Chu Ning’s promise to participate in the escort, Cheng Jinhe happily returned to his room.
At this moment, Chu Ning, having reached his room, casually threw out a Talisman, isolating the entire room.
This Spirit Control Talisman was a Basic Middle Grade Talisman, which Chu Ning learned from that Profound Talisman Treasure Scroll.
This talisman not only had soundproofing effects but could also prevent Spiritual Power fluctuations from being sensed externally.
Thinking it would be useful in the Mortal World, Chu Ning hurriedly learned this skill.
This Basic Middle Grade Talisman was extremely easy for Chu Ning; he spent little time drawing many.
After activating the Spirit Control Talisman, Chu Ning tapped the Spirit Beast Bag, and two little creatures appeared before him.
One was naturally Ling Xiaobai, and the other was an Iron Rock Beast cub.
Initially, Chu Ning was somewhat at a loss about what to do after acquiring this Demon Beast cub.
After all, when he acquired Ling Xiaobai, the little creature had already grown up.
Furthermore, it knew how to express what it wanted to eat.
But the Iron Rock Beast didn’t understand anything.
Luckily, Chu Ning remembered that when he killed some Yin Demon Sect disciples in the Spirit Realm, two of them were from the Spirit Beast Room.
They had some Jade Scrolls introducing Spirit Beasts, which he immediately took out to check.
In the Jade Scrolls, there was indeed an introduction about the Iron Rock Beast.
This kind of Demon Beast was indeed easy to raise, requiring only to eat soil.
Of course, ordinary soil merely satiated hunger, and if one wanted the Demon Beast to grow well and fast, Spiritual Soil with Spiritual Qi was necessary.
Hence, before leaving the Cyan Gorge Mountain Range, Chu Ning dug two Storage Bags full of Spiritual Soil, enough for the Iron Rock Beast to eat for a long time.
Currently, after releasing the Iron Rock Beast, Chu Ning took out some Spiritual Soil from the Storage Bag to feed it.
Ling Xiaobai, on the other hand, kept chirping softly beside them, showing great interest.
"Xiaobai, look, others eat soil and can grow up, while you, eating Spirit Fruits frequently, still remain like this."
Chu Ning teased Ling Xiaobai via telepathy, making the little creature a bit anxious.
It amused Chu Ning to the point of almost laughing aloud.
However, the Iron Rock Beast was growing fast; within ten days, it had grown noticeably larger.
Its eyes could open, occasionally looking at Chu Ning and Ling Xiaobai affectionately.
After letting the two Spirit Beasts out for a bit of fresh air, he put them back in the Spirit Beast Bag.
Chu Ning himself sat cross-legged and began cultivating the Flame Divine Wood Technique.
This Mortal World also had Spiritual Qi, although it was extremely sparse.
So Chu Ning was also able to cultivate, albeit at a slow pace.
Fortunately, beyond enhancing his cultivation realm, Chu Ning had already resolved to focus on consolidating his current state and wasn’t in a hurry.
Currently, Chu Ning was still in the stage of tempering his Magical Power after changing his cultivation technique.
Cultivating the Flame Divine Wood Technique allowed absorbing Fire Attribute Spiritual Qi from Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
It transformed the Wood Attribute Magical Power in Chu Ning’s Dantian into Wood and Fire Dual Attribute Magical Power.
Even without Spiritual Qi, the technique allowed the generation of fire from wood, gradually accumulating dual attributes of magical power.
The latter might be slower, but for Chu Ning, who broke through too fast earlier on,
it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
So even though there were Fire Spirit Crystals in the Storage Bag, Chu Ning did not take them out to aid in cultivation.
On one hand, the Fire Spirit Crystals’ Spiritual Qi was too intense, easily sensed by other cultivators.
On the other, Chu Ning himself intended to "slow down".
After several cycles, Chu Ning slowly opened his eyes, feeling a slight increase in Wood and Fire Dual Attribute Magical Power, and he nodded in satisfaction.
Such cultivation resulted in little improvement in proficiency, but he didn’t care.
He switched to taking out a Talisman from the Storage Bag.
The Sword Sealing Talisman, a Basic Upper Grade Talisman, which Chu Ning got from a Yin Demon Sect disciple’s Storage Bag before.
After Cyan Wood Evergreen Technique’s Third Layer proficiency maxed out and refreshed abilities, Chu Ning reviewed the hidden talents of his Spirit Bodies.
But he hadn’t had the time to truly experience them.
Not only did he not have time to cultivate the Blazing Fire Flaming Technique he had just acquired,
he also didn’t try the hidden talents of the Talismanic Spirit Body and True Talisman Spirit Body.
Now he could give it a try.
"Analyze the Talismanic Runes, comprehend the Talisman principles..."
Chu Ning muttered to himself and began to concentrate, observing the runes on the Sword Sealing Talisman intently.
Initially, there was no sensation, but as he followed the runes with his gaze, imagining himself making a talisman,
gradually, Chu Ning felt lights appearing on the Talisman.
It was as if he was indeed making a talisman.
These light points seemed alive, gathering into symbols and flooding into his mind.
"So that’s how it is!"
It was unclear how much time had passed when Chu Ning finally emerged from his deep focus.
There was a look of realization on his face.
He understood about half of the talisman-making principles of the Sword Sealing Talisman.
At the same time, Chu Ning noticed that a significant amount of the Spiritual Sense Liquid in his Mud Ball Palace had been consumed.
"Analyzing Talismanic Runes, exploring Talisman Sources, is indeed profound.
With my current Spiritual Sense strength, understanding only half consumed more than half of my sense."
Though Chu Ning thought this, he had a smile on his face.
At this rate, in just three to five days, he would be able to fully analyze the runes of the Sword Sealing Talisman.
If it worked with Basic Upper Grade Talismans, what about Intermediate Talismans?
Chu Ning’s eyes brightened, and he closed his eyes, starting to cultivate the Refining Spirit Technique.
After using his Divine Sense for Talisman making, cultivating the Refining Spirit Technique not only restored his sense, but also helped bolster it.
Perhaps the same method could apply to using his sense to analyze Talismans.
