All-out Horror Survival: My Awakening Skill Point Allocation Sequence!

All I saw was...

In front of Zheng Sheng was a plate of warm black dog blood and several sheets of white paper. He held a pen in his hand and was drawing talismans.

There was a yellow talisman in front of him, the very same Blazing Sun Talisman that Chen Kun had given him earlier.

He casually asked Chen Kun about it, and according to Chen Kun, this Blazing Sun Talisman was made by Zhang Yiming, a Taoist priest, and has the effect of clearing away strange influences.

It was drawn with talisman ink made from black dog blood and cinnabar.

Moreover, Zhang Yiming's black dog was just an ordinary Wuhai dog, completely incomparable to Xiao Heizi, whose bloodline had awakened.

However, he had seen Chen Kun use the Blazing Sun Talisman on the cross-river bridge before, and its effect was no less than that of his own enhanced Black Dog Blood.

Of course, compared to the Demon-Subduing Black Dog Blood, the Blazing Sun Talisman is still far inferior.

"Sigh, it still doesn't work."

"I've never used a calligraphy brush before, so trying to imitate it by drawing talismans with a calligraphy brush is too difficult."

Zheng Sheng put down his pen and sighed.

Recently, he has been trying various methods to develop ways to use black dog blood.

One of them is drawing talismans using black dog blood.

This Blazing Sun Talisman contains black dog blood. Even after so much time has passed, it still has a strong restraining effect on the supernatural, which means that the extreme yang power in the black dog blood is locked in this talisman.

If he could learn to draw talismans, he could simply take a little black dog blood during safe times to draw talismans and continuously accumulate talismans.

Once you've collected hundreds or even thousands of black dog blood talismans, you can enter the city, face the strange creatures, and slaughter them all.

This way, you don't have to waste survival points to restore Xiao Heizi, and you can accumulate more survival points to strengthen yourself.

"This talisman definitely requires more than just drawing it exactly the same; there must be other steps I'm unaware of."

These past few days, he had been trying to see if he could add "Charm Drawing" to his skill bar by constantly copying this Blazing Sun Talisman. If he could, he could then use his survival points to learn it!

But reality slapped them in the face, proving that drawing talismans is clearly not just about copying.

Zheng Sheng rubbed his head and turned to find Luo Hao again.

He asked Zhang Yiming about the details of drawing the talisman.

"Luo Hao, when you were in the Hope Squad, did you ever see Zhang Yiming drawing talismans?"

Luo Hao was stir-frying the relics in a large black wok, sweating profusely, when he suddenly heard Zheng Sheng ask him a question, and he answered with a smile.

"Yes, I've seen it several times. The scene was so impressive, even more exciting than the zombie movies I used to watch on TV."

Luo Hao recalled the scene and continued.

"Every time Captain Zhang Yiming draws a talisman, he fasts, bathes, and sits quietly for half a day... He also prepares offerings, candles, cinnabar, yellow paper, incense burner, etc..."

"...Afterwards, an auspicious day will be chosen to set up an altar and invite the gods...and there are many rules for inviting the gods at the community altar...it requires offering sacrifices, chanting incantations, burning incense and making prayers, and setting up an incense table..."

"Anyway, it takes a long time to prepare before I start drawing the talismans."

"Furthermore, after the talisman is drawn, it must be consecrated, stamped, and then passed through a furnace..."

"Extremely complicated."

After listening to Luo Hao's incessant chatter, Zheng Sheng felt a headache coming on.

It seems I can forget about drawing talismans for now.

He has no chance of learning unless he personally seeks out Zhang Yiming to teach him.

I was originally planning to use the skill point system to cheat, but now it seems I should honestly think of another way.

"We can only try the paper doll book left by Li Longkong again."

The development of black dog blood must be put on the agenda; otherwise, it feels like a waste to simply apply such a precious substance directly to one's body every time.

Zheng Sheng returned to the original spot.

This time, there was a book in front of me, which was the book "Paper Making Techniques: Paper Figures" left by Li Longkong.

The process of obtaining this book was rather unexpected.

He was about to throw Li Longkong out of the pickup truck when he noticed a book in the other man's arms that he seemed to value, so he decided to keep it.

"System, how many survival points are needed to upgrade this book?"

[Ding! Consume 1000 survival points to enhance "Paper Doll Technique"?]

"Only 1000 survival points?" Zheng Sheng was a little surprised. It was less than he had expected. After weighing it in his mind, he decided to try strengthening it anyway.

Recently, he hasn't figured out exactly how to use the Soul-Pointing Brush, but it's clearly closely related to this book.

[Ding! 1000 survival points consumed. Enhancement successful. Obtain the original copy of "Paper Doll Technique".]

As the enhancement ended, the book in my hand was completely renewed. Its thickness had not increased, but the contents inside had changed.

"The original? Doesn't that mean the previous book was fake, and the content was problematic?"

Upon seeing the words "genuine copy," Zheng Sheng instantly realized that Li Longkong had clearly tampered with the book.

As the saying goes, nine parts truth and one part falsehood; anyone who practices it is a fool.

If someone were to use the methods in the book to make a paper doll, they would most likely die a terrible death.

1000 survival points are simply used to correct all the errors in the book.

"They're all a bunch of cunning old bastards; they even pulled some strings."

Zheng Sheng opened "The Art of Paper Making: Paper Figures" again. There weren't many changes; it still recorded the methods for making twelve types of paper figures, as well as the methods for making some tools for making paper figures.

However, after the enhancement, each of the twelve paper doll making methods now includes an additional taboo at the end, clearly recording all the taboos in the paper doll making process.

"If any taboo is violated, the paper figure will surely turn against you. Li Longkong's death was not unjust!"

Zheng Sheng began to study the entire Paper Dolls chapter, but the more he read, the more his brows furrowed.

"The soul-consecrating pen... dipped in cinnabar, black dog blood, or white rooster blood... is used to 'consecrate' the paper figure and add the eyes..."

"Throat-Sealing Scissors... If the paper figure makes any unusual movements, seal it at its throat..."

"A measuring ruler... used to measure the dimensions of a living person, to determine the skeletal structure of a paper dummy..."

"Soul-binding rope, bone needles, yin paper pulp, blood rouge, rootless water, soul-suppressing bell..."

"Making paper figures requires so many ritual implements."

Zheng Sheng continued flipping through the pages, only to furrow his brows even deeper.

The methods for making paper figures are mostly very complicated and require very special materials that are difficult to find under normal circumstances, let alone now that it is the end of the world, making it even more difficult.

Therefore, the book records some alternative methods.

It's all about using people!

"...Large amounts of human blood, human skin, skull powder...extracting souls, making paper dolls..."

"According to the book, it takes the blood of three people to create a paper elf soldier... Using young boys and girls, one can create paper generals, raising ghosts and cultivating spirits..."

Zheng Sheng frowned, wondering what kind of sinister methods these were.

When Li Longkong waved his hand, more than a dozen paper ghost soldiers flew out, which represented the lives of dozens of people.

The main issue is that it seems weak, considering it killed so many people.

I was holding a butcher knife and using black dog blood to kill them one by one, finishing them off in a few breaths.

However, after Zheng Sheng finished reading the entire book, a hint of joy finally appeared on his face.

"Paper figures are divided into Yin and Yang... those made from the flesh and blood of the living and the bones of the dead are Yin paper figures... those nourished by the essence and blood of the most Yang substances are Yang paper figures!"

"Extremely yang substances... the blood of a virgin, the blood of a rooster over three years old, the blood of a black dog..."

Zheng Sheng looked at the last page of the book, where he found three methods for making paper effigies, especially the process of making paper effigies using black dog blood. He was overjoyed!
