After completing all preparations, Shang Xia started to draw the first stroke on the third-level talisman paper. It took about three days to complete the production of a third-level talisman.
According to this efficiency, Shang Xia could complete the production of at least ten third-level talismans within a month.
But that's not how things work out.
In the process of making the third-level martial talisman, the third-level talisman master is required to divide the martial arts will.
And a top third-level Talisman Master can withstand at most five or six divisions of martial arts will in a month without damaging the source.
When Shang Xia first tried to make a third-level martial talisman in Tongyou City, he found that he could divide the martial arts will seven times in a row without damaging his own origin.
After experiencing the battle between the two realms, Shang Xia's understanding of the "Induction of Heaven and Man" has deepened, and he has become more agile in controlling his own martial arts will.
Today's Shang Xia can achieve eight consecutive divisions in the division of martial arts will without damaging the original.
Strong martial arts will is one of the fundamental reasons why Talisman masters improve their Talisman making skills.
Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui believed that the production of six third-order talismans a month was enough to exceed the limit that Shang Xia could bear.
As everyone knows, Shang Xia is not a third-level talisman master who can be judged by common sense.
Shang Xia wanted to cooperate in a special way and created a special rhythm for making symbols for themselves.
This method of making talismans that gradually began to take shape through self-examination was the unique way of making talisman in Shang and Xia Dynasties.
The inspiration for this method of making talismans comes from the state of inspiration that Shang Xia accidentally experienced twice.
In this state, Shang Xia's attention was unprecedentedly concentrated, and the success rate of making talismans was greatly improved.
However, this state is not something Shang Xia can control. It is random and uncertain.
After these two experiences, Shang Xia often recalled the state at that time and tried to guide him to recreate that state.
After repeated recollections, reflections, deductions, and attempts, Shang Xia finally captured the fleeting inspiration and rhythm, and then by creating a specific atmosphere, supplemented by a firm martial arts will and a specific method of making talismans, Finally, the state of overflowing with inspiration was restored to five or six points.
Five or six points is enough!
And this is the main reason why Shang Xia really dared to accept the production of third-level formation talismans.
Because I had already figured it out beforehand, there was nothing obscure about the drawing of Shang Xia's first formation talisman, and it could be described as smooth and smooth.
It usually takes Shang Xia three days to complete a third-level martial talisman.
The difficulty of the third-level talisman is slightly lower than that of the same level of martial talisman. Coupled with Shang Xia's improvement in his own talisman-making skills, it only took him two and a half days to successfully complete the division and division of his martial arts will. Rubbing.
At this point, this third-level martial talisman has been 95% completed, and it can even be directly concluded that the production was successful.
After a little organization and improvement, Shang Xia made a good start when he made the third-level formation talisman for the first time.
Even though Shang Xia was mature, he could not help but feel a little proud at this time.
The production of third-level talismans is indeed much simpler than other third-level talismans.
After a day of rest and adjustment, Shang Xia quickly began to make the second formation talisman.
Shang Xia's way of making talismans is very special, because in order to maintain the unique rhythm, he must always pinch and calculate the position and interval of writing on the talisman paper, and even the beginning and end of each stroke. Very particular.
Although this method greatly improves the success rate of making talismans, it also makes the process of making talismans extremely complicated. Not only does it have to be divided into two tasks, but also there must be no mistakes in the process of deduction and calculation, otherwise it is very likely that all the efforts will be wasted. .
If the production of the first talisman was successful, it proved the feasibility of Shang and Xia's talisman making method.
Then the second time proved the complexity and rigor of this approach.
Perhaps because of his carelessness after the first successful production, or perhaps because he was not proficient enough in this method of making talismans, during the production process of the second talisman, Shang Xia made a miscalculation and the time to write the pen appeared. The delay caused the entire talisman paper to burn on the talisman table and eventually be scrapped.
By this time six days had passed.
Shang Xia deliberately rested for three days, summed up the experience and lessons learned from the previous two talisman makings, calmed down his mind, and adjusted his condition to the best again.
On the tenth day, Shang Xia started making the third formation talisman.
This time there was no obstacle for Shang Xia, and it took only two and a half days to successfully produce the second level three formation talisman.
At this time, Shang Xia was in pretty good shape, but out of caution, he did not directly start making the next formation talisman, but deliberately left a two-day buffer.
Anyway, there are already two third-level talismans. Next, he only needs to make one more to complete the task. Now he still has three third-level talismans in his hand, which should be enough as expected.
But when Shang Xia felt relaxed and started making talismans again two days later, he unexpectedly failed in the middle.
It was normal for the production of third-level talismans to fail. Even if Shang Xia figured out a unique method, he could not guarantee that he could make every talisman successfully.
But the reason for the failure this time is a bit embarrassing. There was something wrong with the pine smoke ink grinded by Shang Xia.
The ink used to make talismans before Shang Xia was all ink prepared by Shang Quan and could be used directly, which meant that he had never had the experience of grinding ink by himself before.
But this time, Shang Xia directly used third-level pine smoke ink ingots. If you want to use them, you need to grind them yourself.
Originally, Shang Xia thought this was a simple matter, just grind it slowly with spiritual spring water.
In fact, it is not difficult to do this. At least when Shang Xia used the first three talisman papers to draw the formation talisman, there was no problem with the self-polished talisman ink.
But this time something went wrong on something that is not easy to go wrong.
The ink that is too thick makes the tip of the Feihong pen slightly astringent during the process of making the talisman. As a result, the pen stroke is too heavy at the point where the talisman is transferred, which in turn causes the accumulation of vitality and eventually exceeds the talisman. The paper could withstand the limit and collapsed at the moment when the formation talisman was about to take shape, turning into paper scraps on the ground.
This formation talisman was really made with no care at all!
Shang Xia shook his head and sighed, and after taking a short rest, he started making the third talisman again.
At this time, it was the eighteenth day that Shang Xia had agreed with Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, the two third-level talisman masters. The fifth one of the six third-level talisman papers used by Shang Xia to draw the third formation talisman.
This time there were no more surprises. On the twentieth day, Shang Xia finally completed the production of the third talisman, and there was still one intact third-level talisman in his hand that had not been used.
At this time, there are still ten days left before the time agreed upon by the two Talisman masters Shang Xia and Fu Tang.
However, Shang Xia was not in a hurry to go out, but deliberately stayed in the secret room for a few more days.
Shang Xia's own martial arts will is far superior to that of warriors of the same level. He can divide more of his martial arts will into making talismans, and his recovery power is astonishing.
This will allow him to make spells at a speed that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve.
However, Shang Xia was not willing to expose his secrets easily, so he deliberately delayed his departure.
But in fact, even so, in the eyes of a caring person, the time it took for him to get out of the secret room was probably enough to make people feel incredible.
As for the remaining third-level talisman paper, Shang Xia naturally put it away and made it his own.
Since only three talismans are needed, how much talisman paper is used is naturally Shang Xia's own business.
It's not that Shang Xia is short-sighted and has to worry about even a third-level talisman paper. It's actually the difficulty in collecting third-level talisman paper that made Shang Xia frightened. Before there was no stable supply channel for talisman paper, he couldn't help but prepare for a rainy day.
In fact, Shang Xia only used most of the third-level Songyan Talisman ink stick provided by Futang, but he couldn't bear to shame and dropped the small piece of ink stick.
The secret room seal here in Shang Xia was opened, and someone had already informed Zhang Haogu and the two third-level talisman masters Gong and Fan.
The three people arrived one after another after hearing the news. At this time, there were already many people from Futang who knew about the secret room and were paying attention to what was going on here from a distance.
"Isn't it limited to one month? Why did it come out in just twenty-five days?"
Zhang Haogu had some bad feelings in his heart. He actually didn't have much confidence in Shang Xia.
After all, no matter how amazing Shang Xia is, he is extremely beautiful, but his age is there after all. How can he compare with Fan and Gong who have been immersed in Fu Dao for more than ten years, or even decades?
Seeing this, Gong Hang smiled and said, "Maybe Mr. Shang has already completed it in advance."
Fan Yuanhui glanced sideways: "Do you believe it?"
Gong Hang laughed dryly and said: "Anyway, if Mr. Shang can really complete the three formation talismans, it will be a blessing for our Talisman Hall."
Fan Yuanhui sneered: "There is another possibility, that is, all six talismans are destroyed, and each one has not used up enough time, so naturally it can be released early."
"Well..."
Gong Hang glanced around inadvertently, not knowing how to answer the question for a moment.
At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from the secret room: "Why, is Mr. Fan so dismissive of me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the secret room opened, and a handsome young man walked out slowly, with a calm expression, neither sad nor happy.
The moment Gong Hang walked out of Shang Xia, his eyes never moved away from his face.
Except for the fact that his face was slightly pale due to staying in the secret room without seeing the light for a long time, Gong Hang could not see any fatigue or tiredness in Shang Xia's expression due to the division of martial arts will.
This made Gong Hang, who originally had a glimmer of hope for Shang Xia, couldn't help but look disappointed.
The production of third-level talisman seals and the division of martial arts will are the most fundamental steps.
No third-level warrior could remain calm and remain calm even after undergoing six consecutive divisions of martial arts will within twenty-five days.
Unless...cheating!
Gong Hang sighed slightly, and said with a slight lack of interest: "May I ask how many formation talismans Mr. Shang has completed? I would like to explain in advance that the six third-level talisman papers provided by Futang are specially made, and each one has a special talisman on it. There are talisman craftsmen’s secret notes for reference.”
Shang Xia was slightly startled at first, but then he showed a sneer on his face and said: "Mr. Gong, do you suspect that Shang used the pre-made formation talisman to replace it? It's a pity that you are disappointed!"
After saying that, Shang Xia stretched out his hand, and the three formation talismans flew towards the three people in front of him, saying: "You three can check it at will!"
