Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 146: The virtual drawing becomes a talisman, Tongtian Talisman?
"interesting."

After a moment, Li Kunshan came to his senses and looked surprised.

In other words, any two entries of the same quality, that is, purple, plus this [Super Double], can definitely be fused into a higher-level, that is, orange entry!
According to past experience, it is generally necessary to integrate four terms to be more confident.

But if the compatibility is too bad, there is still a possibility of failure.

With this [Super Double], it is equivalent to saving a purple entry.

Of course, if that were all, it would somewhat lower the grade of the purple entry.

There is also a key point, which is to take the relevance of the other two terms and merge them into a high-level term.

If Li Kunshan takes two entries related to understanding, such as [Introverted Spirit] and [Hide one's talents under a bushel], he can definitely combine them to create an orange entry related to understanding.

This is equivalent to orientation!
You know, even if Li Kunshan chooses entries with good compatibility, he cannot be sure what they will eventually come out of.

The targeted fusion is bound to be successful, which is enough to be worthy of the purple entry level.

"Try it!"

After figuring out the usage of this term, Li Kunshan couldn't help but feel eager to try it out.

However, you still need to carefully consider which two purple entries to choose.

In order to have more target options, Li Kunshan first merged other low-level entries.

【Fusion completed! 】

[Obtain new entries: Easy to Pick (Blue), Calm and Relaxed (Blue), Ghostly Howl (Blue)! ]

I just killed that group of little ghosts, and they dropped more than a dozen white entries, which were fused into three blue entries in total.

Sword Mastery (Blue), One-Handed Talisman (Blue), Sixth Sense (Blue), Talisman Mastery (Blue), Effortless Use (Blue), Calm and Calm (Blue), Ghostly Howl (Blue)
Even if we include these three, the total number of blue entries is only seven.

"Fusion!"

[Whether to fuse the blue entries One-Handed Talisman, Talisman Mastery, Effortless Use, and Calmness.]

Among these four entries, two are related to talismans, and the other two also have good correlation. It is very likely that they will be integrated into advanced talisman entries again.

As Li Kunshan masters more and more talismans, this ability becomes extremely important.

"Yes."

【Fusion completed! 】

[Obtain a new entry: Qi and Blood Painting Talisman (Purple)! ]

"There is."

It turned out to be a talisman-like ability. Li Kunshan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

[Qi and Blood Talisman Drawing: Use Qi and blood instead of cinnabar ink. Consume Qi and blood to draw any talisman.]

"This……"

After reading the introduction, Li Kunshan pondered for a moment. It was not what he expected.

Immediately afterwards, Li Kunshan took out a blank piece of yellow paper, gathered his energy at his fingertips, and drew a soul-calming talisman on it.

Buzz~!

With a buzzing sound, Qi and blood appeared, and the talisman was completed.

It saves on ink and cinnabar, which is really convenient.

But just like this, it seems that the added value is not that great.

The third level of the magical blood seal of the Soul-Suppressing Talisman and the Corpse-Suppressing Talisman uses essence and blood instead of the talisman, and it doesn't even need to be drawn, but its power is smaller.

With this ability, any symbol can be drawn with qi and blood.

In addition, the most important thing is that different talismans require different materials. The general puppet talismans, soul-soothing talismans, and corpse-soothing talismans are okay, but some talismans require extremely rare and special materials.

Even if you know this talisman, it is useless without the corresponding materials.

With the [Qi and Blood Talisman Drawing] entry, you can draw any talisman as long as you know how to draw it, and you don't have to worry about missing materials.

From this perspective, this ability is actually quite good.

But Li Kunshan only knew a few spells at the moment, and the materials needed were not difficult to find. Furthermore, there weren't many spells with special materials.

All in all, a bit tasteless.

"never mind!"

Then, Li Kunshan smiled again.

After all, as long as it was a spell-like ability, he didn't just want a purple attribute.

Inner Spirit (Purple), Heart to Divine Knowledge (Purple), Spirit of Words (Purple), Master of Weapon Refining (Purple), Lightning Flash (Purple), Swallowing Elephants (Purple), Keeping a Low Profile (Purple), Darkening Ten Times Stronger (Purple), Regenerating Flesh from Bones (Purple), Super Double (Purple), Drawing Qi and Blood Talismans (Purple)

In addition to the super double, there are ten purple entries!

Li Kunshan thought about it and did not suggest to be introverted and keep a low profile, but he used the newly formed Qi and blood talisman.

Compared with Taoist and insight-related abilities, talismans are even rarer.

If you want to maximize the potential of [Super Double], it is best to use it to enhance rare abilities.

Then the next step is to choose another one from the remaining nine purple entries to match the Qi and Blood Talisman.

"That's it!"

After thinking for a while, Li Kunshan made a decision.

[Should I fuse the purple items Super Double, Qi and Blood Talisman, and Word Spirit?]

Word spirits belong to the language category. They can communicate with any creature and control lower creatures with language.

First of all, this entry is not very useful to Li Kunshan, and he doesn't mind using it as a consumable.

As for the compatibility between [Word Spirit] and [Qi and Blood Talisman], there is no need to consider it at all. With the effect of [Super Doubling], they will definitely be able to merge into an orange entry.

Moreover, it is based on the correlation between the two, one draws the talisman and the other speaks. Li Kunshan couldn't help but wonder, can we go a step further and make the talisman just by opening our mouths and speaking?

"Yes!"

After careful consideration, Li Kunshan confirmed it directly.

【Fusion completed! 】

[Available a new entry: Virtual Painting Symbol (Orange)! ]

"This is……"

Li Kunshan was slightly stunned when he saw the system prompt, and then he checked it in detail.

[Drawing in the air to create a talisman: Using Qi and blood as the brush and ink, regardless of time or place, just draw in the air to create a talisman!]

"That's true."

After checking it carefully, Li Kunshan frowned slightly.

Drawing talismans out of thin air was still a little worse than what he expected, which was to "make the talismans come true as soon as he spoke."

Immediately afterwards, Li Kunshan stretched out his hand and drew it in the air, and his blood and energy condensed into a soul-calming talisman.

Compared with the qi and blood talisman just now, it seems that the talisman paper has been further omitted.

If that were all, this orange item would be a real waste, since talisman paper isn't rare after all.

"wrong."

After reading the introduction carefully, Li Kunshan shook his head slightly.

The key to this entry is not 'virtual painting', but 'forming a talisman'!
You can draw talismans at any time and place.

You should know that some special talismans, in addition to special materials, have additional requirements, such as bathing and burning incense, and even opening an altar and fasting, and going through complicated rituals before they can be drawn.

In short, it may take days or even months to draw such a talisman!

But with the entry of "drawing talismans from nothing", Li Kunshan can draw talismans immediately with ease.

If [drawing talismans with qi and blood] omits the materials, [drawing talismans with nothing] omits the ritual!

Another thing is that you can draw talismans at will, which greatly increases concealment and speed of attack.

Just like this time, even if Li Kunshan didn't arrange the talisman array in advance, he could just put his hands behind his back and immediately draw several soul-calming talismans and place them everywhere.

Thinking about it this way, it really deserves to be called an orange entry.

In addition, this entry actually has other extensions, especially in conjunction with some of Li Kunshan's methods, but further research is needed.

"Tongtianlu?"

After figuring this out, Li Kunshan suddenly smiled.

Isn't this method of drawing talismans casually the Tongtian Talisman?

However, Tongtianlu contains all Taoist talismans. Although Li Kunshan can draw talismans in the air, he must first master the specific talismans.

Furthermore, the reason why Tongtian Talisman is so powerful is not because of the talisman, but because of its ability to reach the sky.

"Alright!"

Although it is different from what I thought before, as an orange item, it is still a good ability after all.

The entries were merged and the sky in the east began to turn pale.

Li Kunshan took a look around, stood up and continued to head towards Longhu Mountain.

To strike first, the strong prevail. In order to attack Zhengyi, the Yin and Yang Realm sent a large number of evil spirits to intercept and kill him around Longhu Mountain.

However, for the next few days, no ghost came to find Li Kunshan. I guess he was scared.

After all, even in the Yin and Yang world, the Red and White Devils and the Red Robe Fire Ghost are all powerful characters. Even they have failed, so who would dare to easily offend Li Kunshan?

"What a pity." Li Kunshan shook his head secretly. He had wanted to take the opportunity to release a few more waves of entries, but now it seems that there is no hope.

At this point, Li Kunshan simply stopped thinking about it and focused on getting on with his journey.

On July 14, the day before the Ghost Festival, Li Kunshan arrived at the foot of Longhu Mountain early in the morning, just like last time.

"Master!"

At the foot of the mountain, at the same place as last time, Uncle Jiu and others have arrived.

Li Kunshan shouted and walked over quickly.

"Disciple greets Master! Greetings to all the uncles!"

"No need to be polite."

Uncle Jiu supported Li Kunshan, looked him up and down, and asked with concern.

"We encountered trouble on the way here."

"It's just a little trouble, not worth mentioning."

"it is good!"

Uncle Jiu nodded, his face full of relief.

Taoist Master Qianhe and Taoist Master Simu and others standing by couldn't help but give Li Kunshan a thumbs up.

On the way here, they were all ambushed by evil spirits from the Yin and Yang worlds. Even they found it a bit tricky.

Li Kunshan actually said it was not worth mentioning, which is really amazing.

"Senior brothers and sisters."

In addition, Qiu Sheng, Wen Cai, Jia Le, Nian Ying and others also came, and Li Kunshan met them in the past.

"Junior brother."

"Senior brother."

Everyone returned the greeting and held Li Kunshan's shoulders with a smile.

Long time no see, I miss you very much.

Because there was no need to wait for Shi Jian, everyone arrived just after eight o'clock and went up the mountain together with the people from Gezhao Mountain.

"Everyone, please follow me."

There was still a Taoist boy waiting at the foot of the mountain, but this time there was no test and he led everyone directly up the mountain.

At nine o'clock in the morning, everyone entered the Tianshi Mansion.

"The Maoshan disciples pay their respects to the leader of the Zhengyi Sect!"

"Disciples of Gezhao Mountain pay their respects to the leader of the Zhengyi Sect!"

In front of the main hall, Zhang Jingqing stood there, and everyone shouted in unison and came forward to greet him.

Zhang Jing took a quick look and his face was gloomy.

There were 67 people who were supposed to attend Mount Mao, but only 58 showed up. There were 73 people who were supposed to attend Mount Gezao, but only 61 showed up.

The other twenty-one people were not intentionally negligent, but were killed by the Yin and Yang Realm on the way!
The battle with the Yin-Yang Realm hadn't even begun yet, and more than twenty people had already been killed. As the leader of the Zhengyi Sect, how could Zhang Jingqing not be angry?

"This time, the ordination is divided into three levels."

After settling the accounts with the Yin and Yang Realm, Zhang Jingqing took a deep breath and pointed to the three side halls.

"The initial grant is to go to the City God Temple, the promotion is to go to the Medicine King Temple, and the additional grant is to go to the Thunder Ancestor Temple."

"Yes."

Including the disciples of Mount Longhu, everyone responded and accepted the order.

"I'm going to the Thunder Ancestor Temple. Come on, everyone."

Uncle Jiu patted Qiu Sheng on the shoulder, smiled and said something, then left with Taoist Qianhe.

As early as two years ago, not long after returning from the capital, Taoist Qianhe had accumulated enough Taoist skills to be successfully promoted, so he is now qualified to be promoted.

However, I'm afraid the chances are slim.

"Let's go over there."

Wencai, Jiale and the others had not yet received their ordination, so this time they wanted to receive it for the first time. After saying hello, they ran to the City God Temple with happy faces.

The least number of people go to the Leizu Temple, the most to the Chenghuang Temple, and the rest are those who want to be promoted.

"Let's go."

In addition to Li Kunshan, Qiu Sheng, Nian Ying, and Lu Ming, Taoist Simu, Zhe Gu, and Mamadi are also in this group, as well as several other uncles and disciples.

At the same time, several familiar figures were seen among the crowds in Longhu Mountain and Gezhao Mountain, such as Zhang Zhiwei, Zhang Huaiyi, Ge Shan, and Ge Yan.

A moment later, everyone entered the Medicine King Hall and saw a high-ranking Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain standing in front of them.

"Everyone be quiet."

Seeing someone coming in, Gao Gong said lightly.

Although the sound is not loud, it is extremely clear.

The originally noisy hall suddenly became silent, and everyone stood there waiting for instructions.

"Everyone who has come here has received initial training. The next step is advancement. You should have known when you came here that although there are no Daoist skills required this time, sufficient strength is required."

Gao Gong spoke again, without beating around the bush, and spoke directly.

"Now, those who don't know the spell to cure ghosts, please retreat outside the hall."

The reason why everyone is given an extra chance to upgrade this time is to eradicate the Yin and Yang world. The Yin and Yang world is full of evil spirits, so the ghost-curing talisman is extremely important.

There is nothing wrong with having this request.

There were originally fifty or sixty people in the hall, but now only about ten of them left.

"Those whose skills in the Ghost Curing Talisman are below the fifth level, please retreat outside the hall."

After taking a quick glance, the high priest of Mount Longhu spoke again.

"Fifth floor!"

“Such high demands!”

Hearing this, the originally quiet crowd suddenly became chaotic.

Since they have been ordained, there are indeed not many people who do not know how to cast spells to exorcise ghosts, which is really a bit unreasonable.

So those people just now left without saying anything.

But now I hear that they actually require us to build to the fifth level, which is too demanding.

"Aren't you kidding us?"

"If you didn't want us to be promoted, just tell us earlier. It's a wasted trip."

Youngsters like Qiu Sheng have only been taught for a short time. Even if they learn the spells to exorcise ghosts, they can only cultivate to the second or third level at most. Not to mention the fifth level, it is rare to cultivate to the fourth level.

"Forget it, let's retreat."

"Oh~!"

Although they were annoyed, what else could they do if they were asked to do so?

In fact, it had been said before that only those with high cultivation strength could be promoted, but I didn't expect it to be so high.

Amidst a wave of complaints, many people withdrew.

In fact, it's not just the younger generation. Many people of Taoist Simu's generation also withdrew.

After all, the requirements for the fifth level of cultivation are really too high.

A moment later, only a dozen people remained in the hall. Among the younger generation, only Li Kunshan and Zhang Zhiwei remained.

The two looked at each other, smiled and nodded slightly.

"good."

Unexpectedly, there were still more than a dozen people left. Gao Gong nodded with a look of relief on his face.

Then he paused slightly and spoke.

"This promotion was originally a temporary decision. Although there is no limit on the number of positions, there are only two orthodox priests. The others are all casual positions in the underworld."

"Dismissed?"

The crowd was in turmoil again, and everyone couldn't help but frown.

The so-called casual positions mean positions without specific powers, similar to the casual officials in ancient times.

Without authority, it is inconvenient to deploy troops.

The heavenly soldiers and generals have never been very supportive of the Zhengyi Taoist priests, and now that they have been dismissed and have no authority, won't they be even less powerful?

Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but hesitate.

After all, for most people, promotion is the limit. If they choose to be laid off this time, there will be no possibility of changing their job.

Apart from the improvement in rank and the increase in mana, there are not many benefits, and there are even disadvantages.

"never mind."

After repeated consideration, many people left the hall.
