A daily divination, from family tortoise shells to immortal clans.
Chapter 215 The Qilin Appearance
Upon seeing Chen Qingmo's agreement, Da Huang opened its mouth and swallowed the beast whole.
It is no longer the stray dog it once was; when it stands on all fours, it reaches Chen Qingmo's chest and abdomen, looking majestic.
The rabbit-sized monster was too small for it; swallowing it whole would be no problem.
After swallowing the beast, Da Huang affectionately rubbed against Chen Qingmo, then lay down on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
The spiritual energy in the spirit beast pouch was not as abundant as that outside. Chen Qingmo didn't know if Dahuang needed to replenish its spiritual energy. In any case, there was no danger in staying in the family, as long as no one disturbed it.
He casually set up a formation, told Li Suiyun about it, and then left the animal farm.
Ten days later, Qi Yong sent a message.
Qi Duan has agreed to let Chen Qingmo observe the Qi family's talismanic tradition.
However, he made a request: Chen Qingmo must make a copy of the insights he gained from it and give it to Qi Shi.
This condition was not excessive, and Chen Qingmo immediately agreed.
He spent the next month at Qi's house.
He then copied down the new talisman-making techniques he had come up with without reservation.
After returning to Tai Xuan Mountain, Chen Qingmo went to the animal breeding park to take a look at Big Yellow.
The bumps on its forehead became more and more obvious, showing faint signs of keratinization.
Its originally brown fur gradually changed, turning into dark gray.
At first glance, it bears some resemblance to that mutated silver wolf, but its aura is quite different.
"What kind of monster is Dahuang? Its appearance has changed so much."
"The name 'Dahuang' isn't quite right anymore; should we change it?"
Chen Qingmo murmured something to himself, his heart filled with curiosity.
Ordinary second-tier demonic beasts have just begun to develop their intelligence and can at least communicate using simple divine sense.
However, Da Huang never actually communicated with Chen Qingmo; it just kept barking and howling.
Chen Qingmo had to rely on the Beast Taming Technique to sense its thoughts each time.
"Let's see if you can surprise me after you devour the monstrous beast."
Chen Qingmo chuckled softly and left.
……
Three months have passed.
Chen Qingmo has honed his talisman-making skills to perfection, significantly increasing his success rate in producing sixth-grade talismans.
He is currently drawing a Thunder Talisman.
This talisman has a simple and straightforward name, but its power should not be underestimated. The lightning it releases is enough to make even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator wary.
If their numbers become too large, they can even annihilate a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the peak of their cultivation.
However, the materials for the Thunder Talisman were relatively scarce in the Qi Kingdom. Chen Qingmo had entrusted the Jinquan Chamber of Commerce to collect some of them over half a year.
It was only after his talisman-making skills improved that he was willing to use them to refine Thunder Explosion Talismans.
Otherwise, if we waste so many materials and can't even make a single talisman, wouldn't we be losing money hand over fist?
The talisman brush moved across the paper, revealing thunder patterns and making crackling sounds.
A quarter of an hour later, a purplish-black light flashed, followed by a loud bang, and the talisman was burned, the attempt to create the Thunder talisman failed.
This was Chen Qingmo's first time drawing this talisman, so he was somewhat inexperienced.
He shook his hand to dispel the slight discomfort caused by the explosion, and picked up his brush again to draw talismans.
This time, the whole process went extremely smoothly. Chen Qingmo carefully observed the direction of the runes with his divine sense and precisely controlled the talisman brush.
About an hour later, the purplish-black lightning danced on the yellow talisman paper, but showed no signs of getting out of control.
Chen Qingmo wiped his palm, and the talisman's radiance subsided, its aura completely concealed.
"It's a success."
A slight smile played on his lips, and he felt a surge of joy.
After learning the talisman-making technique, you can successfully create new talismans on the second try.
Although the main reason is due to Chen Qingmo's solid talisman skills, the effectiveness of the talisman is still evident.
"Using this technique can significantly reduce the mana consumption, preventing a lack of mana later on, and the rune connections during the drawing process are also excellent. The legacy left by Qi Duan is truly remarkable; no wonder Elder Xiao of the Yuanjian Sect wanted to take him into his sect."
Chen Qingmo sighed inwardly. Although he had improved the technique, it was originally created by Qi Duan.
He was deeply impressed by the other party's exceptional talent in talismanic arts.
He then spent some time refining the materials at hand into Thunder Talismans.
In the end, six talismans were made, wasting two sets of materials.
A success rate of 75% is enough to shock many practitioners of this art.
The Thunder Talisman is an offensive talisman, but it is a relatively rare thunder-attribute talisman, with a value of approximately eight hundred spirit stones per piece.
After all, talismans are disposable items, and even if they are powerful, they cannot compare to magical artifacts.
Most Foundation Establishment cultivators will purchase it as a trump card. An unexpectedly powerful talisman often has a surprising effect and is very useful for attacking or delaying enemies.
Unless one has a dozen or so such talismans and can outnumber other cultivators of the same level, but others are not sitting idly by and letting you hit them, only cultivators with abundant resources would use this method.
Chen Qingmo put away the Thunder Explosion Talisman and walked out of the cave.
Just as he was about to leave Mount Taixuan to take a look outside, he suddenly received a telepathic message from Li Suiyun.
Chen Qingmo put away the Thunder Explosion Talisman and walked out of the cave.
Just as he was about to leave Mount Taixuan to take a look outside, he suddenly received a telepathic message from Li Suiyun.
"Qingmo, your beast seems to be waking up. Come quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingmo immediately rushed to the animal farm.
Inside the formation, Da Huang shook its body, its beastly eyes fixed intently on Li Suiyun.
"Kid, your beast is no longer the mud dog it used to be. It's probably some kind of remnant of a true spirit, isn't it?"
Li Suiyun clicked his tongue in amazement, feeling greatly astonished.
At this moment, Big Yellow had a majestic appearance and exuded an aura of authority without being angry.
Its antlers resemble those of a deer, and its head already bears some resemblance to that of a dragon.
Its hooves lifted lightly, and there was a faint sense of wind and clouds stirring, which was quite magical.
"What is Senior Li trying to say?"
Chen Qingmo had some suspicions in his mind, but he didn't dare to believe it.
"It resembles the legendary True Spirit Qilin somewhat, but the color is a bit off."
Li Suiyun stood with his hands behind his back, looking deep in thought.
In ancient texts, the Qilin is described as having a colorful body, with scales and fur, and standing on auspicious clouds; it is a mythical creature.
Although the appearance of the rhubarb is somewhat similar to its description, there are still many differences.
"There are many kinds of demonic beasts, and perhaps there are many branches of the Qilin clan. If you, Dahuang, can continue to grow, you might one day transform into a true spirit Qilin."
There are few records of the True Spirit Qilin in the ancient books of Qi State and several surrounding states. This beast is ranked alongside beasts such as the True Dragon and Phoenix, and is one of the most powerful races among monsters.
Li Suiyun practiced the art of beast taming and had once fantasized about the day he could subdue a true spirit.
But he really didn't expect to see hope in Chen Qingmo.
"Since Senior Li thinks so highly of Dahuang, I'll have to feed it more of my precious food from now on."
Chen Qingmo chuckled and said softly.
The divination results from tortoise shells in the past predicted the extraordinary nature of rhubarb, and the changes in rhubarb now further confirm this.
"Nurture it well. With this Qilin-like appearance, even if it doesn't become a true spirit in the future, it will still be a top-tier demon beast."
Li Suiyun sighed, looking at Chen Qingmo with a very strange expression.
The young man in front of me, Qingmo, is truly blessed with incredible luck.
