A low-grade blank scroll was spread out on the table. Lu Xuan then opened the jade bottle containing the Ferocious Wolf's blood. A violent aura was immediately released from the jade bottle.
Taking a deep breath, a stream of Yuan Power shot out from Lu Xuan's index finger. A trace of the Ferocious Wolf's blood was immediately drawn out. The moment the blood was drawn, Lu Xuan felt the Yuan Power he had released tremble, almost dispersing.
The energy within the Ferocious Wolf's blood was relatively violent and extremely difficult to control. It was not at all as gentle as Yuan Power. Wanting to use such violent blood to inscribe an enchantment scroll was practically several times more difficult.
This was also why when Xia Chenxi heard that Lu Xuan wanted to use pure Ferocious Wolf's blood to inscribe an enchantment scroll, she revealed an astonished expression.
Not only the Ferocious Wolf's blood, but the blood of other beasts also had extremely heterogeneous and violent energies. Enchanters were simply unable to fuse them together to create an enchantment scroll. It was precisely because of this that in the entire Sky Sword Continent, all the enchanters used a special liquid to inscribe enchantment scrolls. They used other materials to neutralize the medicinal properties and make it as gentle as possible.
However, although this made it easier to inscribe, it also weakened the medicinal properties of the main materials, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the enchantment scroll.
Of course, this was something that could not be helped. If they did not do this, they would not be able to create an enchantment scroll.
At this moment, if an enchanter saw Lu Xuan directly using pure Ferocious Beast's blood to inscribe a scroll, they would definitely ridicule him. This was practically impossible. The first thing that every enchanter had to do was to be warned that the materials used for enchantment must be specially made. Using pure main materials would inevitably cause a strong conflict, making it impossible for them to inscribe runes as they pleased.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was faced with such a predicament.
In order to forcibly control the violent wolf's blood to inscribe the scroll, he had no choice but to increase the output of his spirit power. But because of this, the consumption of spirit power greatly exceeded Lu Xuan's expectations. Even though he had already reached the fourth rank of Body Refinement, and his spirit power had increased by a lot, it was still not enough.
Lu Xuan kept waving his fingers, guiding the blood of the Berserk Wolf to fall on the blank scroll according to the runic lines of the Berserk Talisman. Complicated runes immediately appeared on the scroll.
However, as the symbols became more and more complicated, his Yuan Energy rapidly decreased. Not long after, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and the Berserk Symbol was only half completed!
Seeing that his elemental energy was running out, Lu Xuan made up his mind and immediately stopped carving the runes.
Even if he forcibly continued to inscribe it, he would ultimately fail. Rather than that, it was better to save some materials.
As Lu Xuan's inscription was interrupted and he lost the support of his Yuan Energy, the half-completed rune flashed and its connection with Lu Xuan was severed. The first inscription was declared a failure, and the blank scroll and the violent wolf's blood were also wasted.
This was more than ten taels of gold. A trace of heartache flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes.
However, now was not the time to feel heartache. Not to mention Lu Xuan, who was inscribing an enchantment scroll for the first time, even a senior enchanter who specialized in enchantment could not guarantee a 100% success rate. Achieving a success rate of 30% was already enough to be proud of.
Now, Lu Xuan finally understood the difference between practicing with Yuan Energy and personally inscribing. Yuan Energy was one's own and could be used with ease. However, using the violent wolf's blood to inscribe the runes could not achieve the same effect.
As he recalled the feeling of inscribing, Lu Xuan felt that the reason for his failure was not like what the introductory manual had said, that it was because the violent wolf's blood was too strong and caused the runes to clash. Instead, it was because he was not familiar with the properties of the blood and consumed too much of his Yuan Energy.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Xuan once again drew out a strand of the violent wolf's blood. He closed his eyes and carefully felt its medicinal properties.
Because he had stopped inscribing in time, there was still a lot of blood left. It was not a big deal to waste some now.
When the blood was exposed to the air, the medicinal properties would gradually disappear. Lu Xuan constantly drew out strands of blood and experienced it over and over again. He tried to use the least amount of Yuan Energy to draw out the violent wolf's blood.
After spending more than an hour, Lu Xuan was already quite familiar with the properties of the violent wolf's blood. Thus, he sat down again and began to circulate the Taiyi Return to Origin Technique to recover his Yuan Energy. No matter what, he had to practice in order to improve.
A bottle of violent wolf's blood could be used eight to ten times. Although Lu Xuan had wasted some, it could still be used seven to eight times. As long as he could succeed once, it would be enough to recoup his losses.
After his Yuan Energy had recovered, Lu Xuan once again opened up a low-grade blank scroll. Then, he skillfully drew out a strand of blood from the jade bottle. The violent blood was still like before, but Lu Xuan was already familiar with its medicinal properties. He did not need to rely on Yuan Energy to forcefully restrain it and could greatly reduce the output of Yuan Energy.
As the violent wolf's blood continuously fell onto the blank scroll, the rune outline of the berserk talisman gradually appeared. This time, Lu Xuan persisted for a much longer time than the previous time. He continued until the rune was 80% complete before he failed due to exhaustion of Yuan Energy.
This time, Lu Xuan finally confirmed that as long as he had enough Yuan Energy, he could completely use the pure violent wolf's blood to successfully inscribe the berserk talisman. It was not like what the introductory manual had said, that he had to use a special medicine.
As for why it was like this, Lu Xuan felt that it was most likely related to the difference in the rune. His rune was obtained from the sword spirit, so it was possible that it was of a higher grade than the ones used by others.
He continued to replenish his Yuan Energy and continued inscribing. It was still a failure, but this time, Lu Xuan persisted and completed 90% of the rune. There was only a small portion left.
These two failures were not wasted. They provided Lu Xuan with extremely valuable experience. This kind of experience brought about by practice was not something that could be obtained by relying on theory.
Once again, he finished replenishing his Yuan Energy. After the previous two failures, Lu Xuan already had a 70% chance of success. After thinking for a while, he picked up another blank scroll and unrolled it. The appearance of this blank scroll was obviously better looking than the previous ones. The craftsmanship was also extremely exquisite. It was a high-grade blank scroll that was worth 10 taels of gold!
In order to succeed, this time, Lu Xuan could be said to have put in a lot of effort. The blank scroll that he wasted in the previous failure was only a low-grade blank scroll that was only worth 1 tael of gold. If he failed again this time, including the amount of violent wolf's blood consumed, it would be close to 20 taels of gold. This was not a small amount.
Once again, a strand of the berserk Violent Wolf's blood was drawn out by Lu Xuan. The tip of his finger trembled slightly, and a small and exquisite rune appeared on the blank scroll, sparkling and translucent.
Lu Xuan's mind was highly focused. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at the blank scroll. His fingertips constantly trembled as one rune after another fell onto the blank scroll. The entire violent rune was formed by countless small runes. A single mistake would result in failure. If he did not have the memories of the Sword Crystal, how could he have learned the Enchantment Technique so quickly?
Yuan Energy rapidly flowed out and the violent wolf's blood was constantly drawn out. On the blank scroll, complicated runes of various shapes and sizes appeared one after another. The strange thing was that the originally incomparably violent blood, under the combination of Lu Xuan's runes, did not have the slightest trace of conflict. The violent nature contained in the blood was completely suppressed.
Beads of sweat slowly appeared on Lu Xuan's cheeks. Yuan Energy was once again close to being exhausted. However, his fingertips were still extremely steady and did not tremble in the slightest. At this moment, his fingertips had already transformed into an afterimage as one rune after another rapidly fell onto the blank scroll.
The entire rune was already 90% complete. Only the final portion was left!
Lu Xuan only felt waves of piercing pain in his mind. Under his full concentration, his mind was already overdrawn. However, he still forcefully braced himself and relied on his tenacious willpower to hold on. This was the closest he was to success! He definitely could not fail!
Just five more runes would do!
Lu Xuan's consciousness was already a little fuzzy. The speed at which his fingers moved unavoidably slowed down. However, under his subconscious control, he still moved his fingers steadily and the rune drawing didn't stop.
One, two, three, four … When there was only one rune left, Lu Xuan's fingertips finally showed a hint of trembling.
Right at this moment, Lu Xuan abruptly bit his tongue and forcefully roused his spirit. He gathered up the last strand of his Origin Energy, and with an abrupt shake of his finger, a tiny rune instantly flew out and fell onto the blank scroll!
The fifth rune, complete!
As the last rune landed, the rune of the Berserk Rune was finally complete!
A dazzling light flashed and the entire blank scroll exploded with a dazzling light. As the light disappeared, the entire rune appeared to be crystal clear.
The Berserk Scroll … had been successfully created!
When he saw this final scene, a relieved smile appeared on Lu Xuan's face. However, he immediately shut his eyes and fell backwards. He was really too tired. Whether it was his Yuan Energy or his Mind Energy, they were completely depleted. The moment he relaxed, he couldn't hold on any longer.
However, even though he was unconscious, Lu Xuan's satisfied smile still hung on his face.
"I finally succeeded." This was the last thought that came to Lu Xuan's mind before he collapsed.
