Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Liu Yanyi immediately kowtowed and became his disciple. Chinese Network
Zhang Yan sat on the cloud and accepted her three kowtows. He then helped her up and said a few words of comfort. Then, he waved his sleeves and went directly to the Dan Ding Courtyard.
Zhou Chongju hadn't seen Zhang Yan for two months, and he was worried when he heard that Zhang Yan had fallen into a demonic path. However, when he heard that Zhang Yan had returned safely a few days ago, he relaxed. Now that he saw Zhang Yan had become a Mystic Light Realm cultivator, a hint of joy appeared on his face.
Just as he was about to speak, his gaze turned and he saw a beautiful little girl next to Zhang Yan. Her small hand was holding his sleeve, and he couldn't help but be puzzled. He pointed and said, "Where did this little girl come from?" Aside from the people close to him and the children who followed him, Zhou Chongju usually didn't let anyone else on this boat. Now that Zhang Yan had brought this little girl here, he must have his reasons.
Zhang Yan gently patted Liu Yanyi's head and said, "Come, go kowtow to Martial Uncle." Liu Yanyi was very obedient. She knelt down and kowtowed. She said in a crisp voice, "Disciple Liu Yanyi greets Martial Uncle."
Zhou Chongju was surprised at first, but then he smiled and nodded. He reached out his hand and said, "So it's Junior Brother Zhang's new disciple. No need to be so courteous. Get up."
He saw that Zhang Yan didn't avoid calling him Senior Brother in front of this little girl, so he knew that this girl was very important to Zhang Yan and was going to be raised as a direct disciple.
"In a few days, Junior Brother will be going to the three lakes and won't have time to teach her. I want to leave Yanyi with Senior Brother so she can receive pointers from Senior Brother."
Then, Zhang Yan told Zhou Chongju about Liu Yanyi's background. Zhou Chongju couldn't help but sigh and immediately agreed.
Zhou Chongju was from the Dingyang Zhou Clan and had cultivated for almost four hundred years. He was also a Yuanying cultivator. Although his foundation was destroyed and he had no hope of advancing, he had a deep foundation and was a Pill Grandmaster of the same name in the Donghua Continent. It was easy for him to take care of a disciple on behalf of Zhang Yan. He immediately called a child to help Liu Yanyi settle down.
After Liu Yanyi left, Zhou Chongju sighed and said, "Junior Brother has found a good disciple. This girl is very talented. I have cultivated for hundreds of years and have not seen many who can compare to her. Although she seems to be entangled with karma, it is not a problem for Junior Brother. In the future, if you attack the Zhou Clan, she will be a great help." Zhang Yan was silent for a while and sighed, "I only realized recently that a single person can't accomplish anything. Senior Brother Lin should also know that Qi Yun Tian, Qi Yun Tian, Qi Yun Tian, Qi Yun Tian, personally came to the Mo Xue to save me. I'm sure Senior Brother can guess the deeper meaning behind this." Zhou Chongju nodded and said, "I already know about this, why don't you go with the flow." He paused and said in a low voice, "Recently, the sect leader personally came to visit me.
This is the first time. "
Zhang Yan's expression couldn't help but change.
Zhou Chongju laughed and stroked his beard, "After conquering the lower three pools, I'm afraid the sect will still recruit a large number of disciples. After that, there will be a competition within the sect to deal with the Thousand Year Demon Calamity. The number of medicinal pills needed is not small. Currently, more than seventy percent of the medicinal pills in the sect come from my Dan Ding Courtyard. In the next hundred years, the sect leader will need to rely on me for many things. I will take care of everything, so you just need to focus on your cultivation." Zhang Yan finally understood. No wonder Qi Yun Tian personally came to the Mo Xue. In addition to the things that he valued, Zhou Chongju also played a very important role. He quickly raised his hands and said, "I still have to thank Senior Brother for taking care of me!" Zhou Chongju waved his hand and smiled, "What are you thanking me for? In fact, if it wasn't for your identity as a True Disciple and the fact that you are valued by Martial Nephew Sun, even if I gave up my old face, as the head of the third generation, Qi Yun Tian, I'm afraid he wouldn't even look at you."
Zhang Yan nodded his head and chatted with him for a while. Seeing that there was nothing else, he bade farewell to Zhou Chongju and rode Carefree Light out of Dan Ding Pavilion. In less than a moment, he returned to his own immortal cave.
The first thing he did when he returned was to order Shang Chang to serve him a brush and ink. With a few strokes, he finished a letter. After blowing the ink dry, he summoned a strong man and ordered him to deliver this letter to Immortal Ying Island.
In this letter, he mentioned that he had accepted Liu Tao's niece as an honorary disciple. He hoped that the cultivators on the island would return Liu Tao's belongings. In the letter, he even mentioned his relationship with Qi Yun Tian and Fan Changqing.
Immortal Ying Island's Island Lord was only Meng Zhen's grand disciple. If he understood the stakes, he would naturally handle this matter appropriately.
If he didn't do anything, then they would be seeking their own deaths. They couldn't blame anyone else.
After the strong man left, Zhang Yan sat quietly for a while. Then, he dismissed everyone and sealed the door of his immortal cave. He took out the talisman book that he got from Shen Yuefeng and started flipping through it.
At the front of this book, it recorded the general outline of talisman books. At the back, it recorded the specific methods of forging talismans. After reading for a while, he stood up and nodded his head, "Guangyuan Sect was indeed a great sect a thousand years ago. They definitely had the ability to establish themselves.
According to the book, Guangyuan Sect's talisman forging methods were split into five paths: Hold Gate, Battle Gate, Life Gate, True Gate, and Refinement Gate.
However, after an unforeseen event a thousand years ago, many elders either fell or passed away. The whereabouts of the sect head were also unknown. This caused the most profound and unfathomable Refinement Gate and True Gate to be lost. Because of this, Guangyuan Sect was unable to recover from this setback. Ever since then, it had never recovered.
And now, only the disciples of the sect head could use the Life Gate Talisman … Thus, this book only recorded the methods of forging the Door Holding Talisman and the Battle Gate Talisman.
The Door Holding Talisman had a total of four methods: Seal, Lock, Protect, and Release.
The Battle Gate Talisman also had a total of four methods: Sword, Soldier, Drive, and Attach.
There were all kinds of different types of talismans. If one were to look closely, there were more than a hundred types of talismans in this book alone. It was unknown how many of them had never been recorded or had been lost.
Every talisman had its own special method and talisman book to complement it. It would be wishful thinking to try and learn all of them. It seemed like he could only pick one or two of them to cultivate.
However, after flipping through a few more pages, Zhang Yan found out that if the disciples of Guangyuan Sect did not inherit this technique, they would have to deal with scribbling talismans for the rest of their lives.
Only after becoming a true disciple would one be able to inherit a method to refine the "True Life Talisman". After that, there would be no need to draw incantations on the talisman paper. As long as the talisman was formed in the True Life Talisman and absorbed the Five Elements Godly Sand, they would be able to use the method to fight against the enemy.
The stronger the power of the True Life Talisman, the more talismans it could activate. At this stage, talismans and talismans were no different.
The book even briefly mentioned that there was a senior expert in Guangyuan Sect who once refined a True Life Talisman into a Heavenly Talisman and used it to ascend to the heavens.
Reading up to this point, Zhang Yan shook his head and laughed. Every talisman needed the help of the Five Elements Godly Sand. The stronger the power, the higher the quality of the Godly Sand required. It might even consume a large amount of Cloud Sand. Even if you sold an entire sect, you might not be able to refine a Heavenly Talisman.
Furthermore, this True Life Talisman could only be practiced by Core Formation cultivators. Even Shen Yue Feng, who fought with Zhang Yan, could not do this.
However, Guangyuan Sect had thousands of years of inheritance and had its own set of tricks. That was to borrow the power of the "Essence Talisman" and condense a talisman mark within it. During a fight, the talisman would be directly inserted into the talisman paper along with the Godly Sand. This was even more useful than drawing a talisman in advance. The only worry was that it would waste too much Godly Sand.
Although this method was good, Guangyuan Sect's disciples who were not direct descendants could not know about it. Even if they knew about it, they did not have any Essence Talismans for them to use. Zhang Yan thought to himself, "So this is the real way to use the Essence Talisman. If that's the case, I only need to practice in the Essence Talisman and buy some talisman paper and Godly Sand to use this method."
He flipped to the back of the book, preparing to study the method of refining the talisman in detail. Unexpectedly, when he looked at it, he felt that the talisman book was unusually familiar.
After looking at it carefully a few times, he could not help but be surprised. This talisman book was actually evolved from the Erosion Inscription! However, when fighting against an enemy, it required a special technique and the Godly Sand talisman paper to activate its power.
Reading up to this point, Zhang Yan could not help but be excited. Erosion Inscription was his strong suit, so he could not help but read on with great interest.
After reading it, he felt that the text of the book was concise and profound. On the other hand, Shen Yuefeng's annotations were full of mistakes. Many of the improvements made him scoff. It was obvious that one talisman book could be used properly, but Shen Yuefeng thought he was smart enough to split it into multiple talisman books. Not only did the power decrease, it was also much more complicated.
He might as well just ignore Shen Yuefeng's annotations and read directly.
After reading to the end, he shook his head. As a disciple of Guangyuan Sect, Shen Yuefeng did not use such a profound technique and instead chose to cultivate a sword cultivation? It was simply a reckless waste of resources. In fact, as long as one mastered the "Sword" and "Army" techniques, the power of the talisman would not be any weaker than a flying sword.
How could he know that not everyone could learn the method of using the talisman. The reason why he could read it so easily was because he was proficient in the Erosion Inscription.
In order to learn talisman, one must first study the Erosion Inscription for a few years. However, after the Guangyuan Sect went through a huge change, there were very few disciples, so where would they find the time to slowly learn it?
He could only choose disciples who were talented in the Dao of Erosion Glyphs to inherit this art, while the other disciples turned to cultivate other cultivation arts that were faster and more powerful.
Even so, Guangyuan Sect's Lower House was aggressive during the Erosion Inscription Conference. If not for Zhang Yan's appearance, it was very likely that the Qincang School's Lower House would have been overturned.
Shen Yuefeng also prided himself on being talented and wanted to carry forward the Dao of Talisman in his sect. However, after many years of practice, not only did he not make much progress, but he even delayed his own cultivation. He thought that he had reached the end of this path, so he had no choice but to give up. That was why he wrote down his insights and prepared to give it to his junior sister, but it ended up in the hands of Zhang Yan, who even looked down on his annotations.
After reading through it, Zhang Yan closed his eyes for a long time, as if he was digesting the contents. When he opened his eyes again, a calm and confident look appeared on his face.
This talisman looked mysterious, but for those who were proficient in the Erosion Inscription, it was nothing more than a painstaking effort. If the first time was not enough, he would practice it twice. If the second time was not enough, he would practice it four times. If the fourth time was not enough, he would practice it ten times. If the fourth time was not enough, he would practice it a hundred times, or even a thousand times!
Although there were only a few days left to go to the Three Pools, he firmly believed that if he focused on practicing this method in the broken jade, he would at least be at the same level as Shen Yuefeng after six or seven days.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, took out the broken jade from his sleeve, and immersed his mind into it.
