Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality

"The first-level golden elixir must master the veins of the elixir, so how did the master find these veins of the golden elixir?" Zhang Xuan was puzzled.

When he was a fire-burning boy for his master, he did not find any veins of the elixir that the Taoist Jimao could use to refine the golden elixir.

Just keep blending the spiritual consciousness with the golden elixir, follow the mechanism of the elixir, and the veins of the golden elixir will naturally become.

"Is this the legendary unity of humanity? The master's alchemy talent allows him to sense the great way of elixir veins. No wonder he can finally enter the Tao with the elixir and refine the legendary nine-turn golden elixir."

He thought that he could not completely refine an ordinary elixir into a golden elixir based on the intuitive perception of the alchemy.

He tried thousands of times in the past few years, and all failed, because he did not even know the direction of the elixir veins of other elixirs.

"This is only the golden elixir of the first-level elixir. If the veins of the second-level golden elixir are textured, it will be more difficult to refine."

At this time, many problems that had been weighing on Zhang Xuan's mind were solved.

He felt an indescribable sense of joy, but he also felt deeply the difficulty of entering the Dao with all the arts.

"All the arts enter the Dao, but they all lead to the same destination. If it is the case with Danwen and Bingwen, then are the same with Zhenwen and Fuwen?"

Thinking of this, he immediately went to find Master Ziyuan.

Master Ziyuan's cave was not far from here, and it didn't take long to arrive.

"I wonder what the ten clan elders are doing here?" Master Ziyuan received Zhang Xuan politely.

"It's like this, I have some confusion about making talismans, and I want to ask Master Ziyuan for advice."

"The ten clan elders can also make talismans?" Master Ziyuan was also a little surprised.

He knew that the ten clan elders had a high level of cultivation and practiced many heaven-level skills, but he didn't expect that the other party was still interested in making talismans.

"I can only make a first-level middle-grade talisman."

"I didn't expect that the ten clan elders were so young, and they could improve their talisman-making skills to the first-level middle-grade after practicing. I really admire them." Master Ziyuan's words were not a compliment.

As a talisman maker, he knew best how difficult it was to make talismans.

Refining talismans only requires talisman ink and talisman paper. It can be said that the entry threshold is extremely low, unlike casting weapons, which requires high-quality materials, and refining pills, which requires rare spiritual medicines.

It is precisely because of the extremely low entry threshold that many casual cultivators want to become talisman masters, and regard talisman making as a way to earn spiritual stones.

However, there are very few cultivators who can really refine first-level low-grade talismans, and those who can refine first-level medium-grade talismans are even rarer.

This is mainly because talisman making is closely related to one's own endowment, spiritual roots, and comprehension.

Some people are cultivation prodigies, but they may not be able to master the art of talisman making.

When he was in Xingyi City, there were not 10,000 but 8,000 people who wanted to worship him as a teacher every year.

However, there are only 10 people who are truly talented in talisman making.

As far as Master Ziyuan knows, except for these cultivators from Xingyi City, the talisman makers with the highest talisman making skills in the entire Fairy Cat Valley can only refine first-level high-grade talismans, and there are very few who can refine first-level medium-grade talismans.

I didn't expect that the tenth clan elder in front of me could actually refine a first-level middle-grade talisman.

Although it can't be compared with a third-level talisman master like him, it really surprised Master Ziyuan.

"This time I came here to ask Master Ziyuan about the method of refining talismans."

"Oh... please tell me in detail, tenth clan elder." Master Ziyuan was also confused by the question.

"According to me, first-level talismans are all standard talismans. As long as the spiritual roots are compatible and there is a certain level of understanding, you can practice more by following the same method. One day you will be able to refine it successfully, right?"

"Yes." Master Ziyuan nodded slightly.

"Is it more difficult to refine the second-level talisman?"

"Of course. The talisman ink and talisman paper used to refine the second-level talisman are not comparable to the first-level talisman."

"Are the talismans still standardized? Or will the talismans change slightly for each second-level talisman?"

"I didn't expect it... I didn't expect it. The ten clan elders have studied the art of talisman making so deeply. Ordinary second-level talismans and talismans naturally don't change much. However, the top-level second-level talismans also have some powerful third-level talismans, and the talismans are different. These talismans are generally called variable-pattern talismans."

"Can Master Ziyuan refine variable-pattern talismans?"

"This... Alas... I haven't studied it too thoroughly. The two third-level talismans I refined can only be regarded as ordinary third-level talismans, and have not yet reached the realm of the Transformation Talisman."

"Has Master Ziyuan ever thought about going further in the way of talismans?"

"Alas..." Master Ziyuan sighed, "How easy is it? My old mentor who has passed away successfully refined a Transformation Talisman before his death. My mentor once said: Talismans are the secret words of heaven and earth. Talismans are the embodiment of the secret words of heaven and earth. Only those who are in tune with the heaven and man can comprehend the Transformation Talisman."

After listening to Master Ziyuan's words, Zhang Xuan seemed to understand a little bit.

The veins of the golden elixir, the weapon patterns of the spirit weapon, and the talisman patterns of the high-level talismans are all affected by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

It especially mentions the induction of heaven and man.

You need to sense the Great Dao before you can integrate the Great Dao texture into it.

Faintly, Zhang Xuan seemed to touch some vague cognition about the Great Dao.

"Great, Qianyuan!" Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

He used several bottles of Nine Mysterious Essence to exchange for several third-level talismans from Master Ziyuan, and then left the inner collection.

After returning to the outer collection, he immediately found Zhang Dawu.

"Dawu, how are you recovering now?"

Some time ago, the dung-collecting team was entangled in the entanglement of the bone spirit, and the spiritual power in the sea of ​​qi was almost completely exhausted.

During this period, Zhang Dawu has also been recuperating in the cave.

"It has fully recovered." Zhang Dawu said.

"You have now mastered the method of refining the first-level superior formation. How are the second-level formations?"

"I have been comprehending the three second-level formations, the Accumulated Thunder Star Method, the Spiritual Array, and the Eighteen Dragon Swords, for more than a year. Although I am now a foundation-building cultivator, I have no problem with the richness of my spiritual power and consciousness, and I have no problem engraving runes on the formation plate. However, every time I am about to succeed, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth becomes disordered, and I end up in failure."

"That's right." Zhang Xuan seemed to have known Zhang Dawu's situation for a long time.

"Master, do you have a way to deal with it?" Zhang Dawu asked with frowning eyebrows.

"The great Dao of cultivating immortals is inherited from the same source and has the same goal. Refining the golden elixir requires the heavenly man to sense the veins of the elixir, refining the spiritual weapon requires the heavenly man to sense the direction of the weapon pattern, and refining the high-level talisman requires the heavenly man to sense the secret words of the great Dao. I think this formation is no exception."

"Heavenly man sensing..." Zhang Dawu seemed to be thinking.

But the feeling of understanding the great Dao of the formation was still unclear to Zhang Dawu.

Sometimes, he seemed to sense the great Dao formation pattern, but maybe he didn't accumulate enough, maybe he didn't have enough experience, or he was still missing the finishing touch.

And the words of the temple master made him suddenly enlightened, opening a new path for his formation refining.

Zhang Xuan saw Zhang Dawu lost in thought and didn't disturb him.
