Chapter 59 Drawing Talismans
provincial capital.
The streets were bustling with noise.
"Candied hawthorn, candied hawthorn—"
"Freshly fermented tofu, freshly made 'hairy tofu'~~"
The vendors were enthusiastically hawking their wares on the street.
Shi Jian walked down the street, his eyes scanning the area, and soon found a shop selling goods.
"What do you need, Taoist priest?"
As soon as you enter, the owner greets you warmly.
In this chaotic era, most people held Taoist priests in high esteem.
After all, you never know when you might encounter something evil, so getting to know a Taoist priest is a good thing.
"Shopkeeper, do you sell cinnabar or similar substances here?"
Shi Jian asked casually.
The shopkeeper immediately replied, "Yes, yes, please come in, Taoist priest."
"This is top-grade cinnabar, look."
The shop owner brought out the best quality cinnabar from his shop.
Shi Jian could tell at a glance that it was indeed top-grade cinnabar, the best cinnabar for drawing talismans.
"Very well, I'll take it."
He bought it without hesitation.
Then they purchased some more items, spending several hundred taels of silver.
As for where the money came from, it was of course the money obtained by melting down the gold coffin.
I came to the provincial capital to make money.
He melted down the golden coffin he had acquired before and turned it into gold bars. After replacing a few gold bars, that was enough for him.
After purchasing the materials for drawing talismans, Shi Jian's next task was to draw the talismans.
He already knew how to draw talismans, and after some further study and comprehension, he decided to try creating some talismans himself.
After booking a room at the inn, Shi Jian began drawing talismans.
Drawing talismans requires a smooth, continuous motion, done in one go.
Buzz~!
With a single stroke, the first talisman was completed.
Looking at the yellow talisman in front of him, Shi Jian muttered, "Drawing talismans is quite simple, it doesn't seem difficult at all. Let's try the so-called purple talisman."
The Maoshan talismans, from highest to lowest quality, are gold, silver, purple, blue, and yellow.
Among them, the golden talisman is the most powerful, but it requires the caster to have extremely high cultivation and consumes the most mana.
Silver talismans came next, followed by purple and blue, and finally yellow talismans.
The one he just drew is a yellow talisman.
Next, he'll try out more advanced spells.
He started with the blue talisman, using a piece of blue talisman paper. He wrote with divine inspiration, completing the task in one stroke.
Buzz~!
A wisp of magical power surged forth, and the blue talisman flickered slightly.
It was obviously done in one go, which made Shi Jian feel that it was so easy and greatly boosted his confidence.
Next, he tried the purple talisman, placing a purple talisman paper on the table.
This kind of talisman paper is made of special materials and nurtured with magical power to become the carrier material for purple talismans.
"Shh!"
Shi Jian quickly drew strokes on the purple talisman with his brush, outlining a thunder talisman.
It is the Five Thunder Talisman!
Zizzi~~
thunderbolt--
A flash of electricity followed by a burst of thunder.
Strands of lightning crackled around the purple talisman, its faint flashes of thunder outlining a thunderous incantation that slowly faded away.
This is the Purple Thunder Talisman, which is extremely powerful.
All it takes is a single Purple Lightning Talisman to blast the previous royal zombie into dust, or at least cripple it if it doesn't die.
This demonstrates the power of the Purple Thunder Talisman.
"The purple talisman isn't difficult to obtain."
Shi Jian seemed to have a sudden realization, as if a flash of inspiration had struck him, and he began to wield his pen.
He began to draw on the purple talisman paper, creating purple thunder talismans one by one, drawing dozens of purple thunder talismans in one go.
At this moment, he could clearly sense that the magical power in his body was being rapidly depleted, and his primordial spirit was also being greatly depleted. The lightning magic he cultivated could control lightning.
Drawing the Purple Thunder Talisman will naturally follow.
Shi Jian was quite satisfied with his talisman-drawing skills, having produced forty-eight Purple Thunder Talismans.
This means he can draw purple thunder talismans with ease.
“Look at the golden talisman.”
Shi Jian attempted to draw the most powerful talisman of Maoshan, the golden talisman, a very difficult talisman to draw.
It is the highest grade of gold talisman.
He first took a breath to recover to his peak condition and then immediately began.
There were only three golden talismans, which were created after searching and gathering along the way.
There can be no mistakes whatsoever, otherwise the materials will be wasted.
"Buzz~~!"
As soon as Shi Jian put pen to paper, a hazy light immediately appeared on the golden talisman paper.
There were flashes of lightning and a flow of magical power. With each stroke of the pen, it was condensed into a complete talisman.
Zzz, zzz~~~
Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed.
On the golden talisman paper, purple-gold lightning flowed, forming a mysterious incantation.
This is the Five Thunder Talisman.
The golden Five Thunder Talisman is so powerful that it is said that a single strike can obliterate a flying corpse, and some even claim it can severely injure an unyielding bone.
"This is really expensive."
Shi Jian felt that he had used up a third of his magic power to draw a golden Five Thunder Talisman.
The legends about its immense power are probably true.
He then meditated to rest and recover his depleted magical power.
After recovering, he made two more golden Five Thunder Talismans.
This is the most powerful talisman he can currently create; other types of talismans are simply not as easy to make as thunder talismans.
He practiced the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, making it easier for him to draw Five Thunder Talismans.
"It's done!"
The three golden Five Thunder Talismans secretly delighted Shi Jian.
I really am a genius; I haven't failed even once.
It's actually quite normal. He has a powerful AI program that assists his brain's thinking, so the only way he could fail is by making a mistake himself.
"Let's get more purple talismans first."
After thinking about it, Shi Jian decided to draw more Zifu paintings to keep for future use.
From now on, if you see demons and monsters and are too lazy to fight, just throw a Purple Lightning Talisman.
As for the low-level blue and yellow talismans, he felt they were too weak to use.
Since you can draw purple talismans at will, why bother with low-level talismans?
With cannons, who would use a small pistol?
They purchased another batch of materials and produced a large quantity of purple talisman paper.
Shi Jian then spent three days and three nights at the inn, finally producing 1,800 Purple Thunder Talismans.
There are also other purple talismans, such as the Demon-Slaying Talisman, Ghost-Slaying Talisman, Demon-Trapping Talisman, etc., all of which are purple-level talismans.
Having made all the necessary preparations, Shi Jian left the inn and prepared to leave the provincial capital.
With these talismans in hand, the next step is to test their power and effects.
Just like a child who has a gun, he will naturally try it out everywhere.
"Did you hear that?"
"Someone else has gone into Tengteng Town and can't get out."
Walking down the street, I suddenly overheard people around me discussing something.
Shi Jian's mind raced, and he immediately began to listen.
"Another person has gone missing?"
"Isn't it supposed to be a lockdown so people aren't allowed in? Why are people still going to Tengteng Town?"
"What else could it be? Isn't it all about making money?"
Several villagers nearby were chatting idly.
One of them said, "Some people say that Tengteng Town is full of gold and silver treasures, and that all the people in it are dead."
"Some people saw a dense mass of corpses gathered in the town center at night, worshipping the moon."
"That scene was truly terrifying; there was no chance of them coming back."
"Yeah, the people in that town are probably all zombies."
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, and in short, they were all terrified of the situation in Tengteng Town.
Basically, no one dares to go there; in fact, they often have to take a detour.
There wasn't a single living person in the entire town. It was shrouded in mist and filled with an eerie atmosphere. Anyone who dared to venture in for their money would never return.
Over time, no one dared to go there anymore.
"Tengteng Town, a horde of zombies?"
Shi Jian seemed to be deep in thought, and secretly made a note of this matter.
"That's great, let's use it to test the power of the Purple Mansion."
He decided to go and take a look, and decided to use the corpses in Tengteng Town as a basis for his experiment.
After thinking it over, he hurriedly left the city and set off on his journey.
"what?"
Not long after leaving the city, Shi Jian stopped and looked up at the road ahead.
A streak of yellow light flashed across the sky, quickly landing in his hand and transforming into a paper crane with a talisman.
“Disciple, a zombie king with extremely high cultivation has appeared in Dafangbo Village, causing the loss of many Maoshan disciples. Your junior brother has asked the main altar for help. After receiving the news, hurry to support your junior brother.”
The voice of the sect leader came from the paper crane.
"I will obey my master's orders!"
Shi Jian slightly cupped his hands, and the paper crane immediately transformed into a ball of fire and quickly burned away.
"Dafangbo Village?"
He muttered something to himself, then abandoned his trip to Tengteng Town and headed directly towards Dafangbo Village.
When his fellow disciple sought help from the main altar, as the senior disciple, he naturally had to go to the rescue.
Hiss~!
The next second, Shi Jian transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared into the sky.
