"Qian, qian er 800?"
Fu Daozi looked at Li Mu in a daze. Even Xuan Jizi's expression was full of shock.
The Tao Page was extremely mysterious. Since ancient times, those who could comprehend several Tao Pages from it were already geniuses. Those who could comprehend more than ten Tao Pages were geniuses among geniuses. Those disciples later became famous masters of the Fugu School.
They couldn't find a single word to describe it.
Li Mu couldn't figure out their expressions and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
After Fu Daozi came to his senses, he asked again, "How many Talisman do you remember?"
Li Mu said embarrassedly, "One."
In fact, he had only carefully memorized the first talisman. Later, Li Mu was stunned by the scene after the white fog dissipated. The huge monster and the strange human were beyond his knowledge and experience. How could he be in the mood to memorize the talisman?
"That's impossible …" Fu Daozi's face was full of disbelief. Then he asked Li Mu, "What did you see in the Tao Page?"
Li Mu said, "A continent where powerful monsters wreaked havoc. Some human beings could condense talismans in the void and draw powerful Talismans. They used the Talisman to attack and seal those monsters …"
Fu Daozi was stunned. He looked at Xuan Jizi and asked, "What did you see at the beginning?"
Xuan Jizi said slowly, "White fog. Occasionally, a golden Talisman flashed through the white fog."
Fu Daozi looked at Li Mu again and said in confusion, "It's strange. All the people who comprehended the Tao Page saw fog. Why did you see this …"
Li Mu explained, "In the beginning, there was only white fog. However, as one's heart calmed down, the white fog would become thinner. When one's heart calmed down completely, the white fog would completely dissipate. The golden talismans that you saw flashing through the white fog were created by those humans. They used their fingers to draw talismans in the air. Their purpose was to attack some of the monsters in the fog."
"I knew it, I knew it!" After Fu Daozi finished listening to Li Mu's description, an excited expression appeared on his face, and he said, "During the ancient times, the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth was extremely dense, so writing talismans didn't require the assistance of spirit liquids. Later on, the spirit energy of the heavens and the earth thinned greatly, so the seniors of the Dao Sect relied on various spirit objects of the heavens and the earth to liquefy their spirit energy and use it as materials for writing talismans. This old man's guess is true, it's true …."
Li Mu said regretfully, "It's a pity that I didn't pay much attention to the Talisman just now. If I can comprehend the Dao page again, I should be able to remember it."
Xuan Jizi shook his head, "You can only comprehend the Dao Page once. Everyone only has one chance. Even if you touch it again, you won't be able to enter the world just now. However, what you see on the Dao Page will be deeply engraved in your memory. As long as you meditate, you'll be able to recall it again."
Hearing Xuan Jizi's words, Li Mu closed his eyes and thought back to the scene he had just seen. Sure enough, the things he had seen on the Dao page appeared once again, and very clearly.
Fu Daozi asked expectantly, "Do you remember now?"
Li Mu nodded, "Yes."
Fu Daozi continued to ask, "What kind of Talisman are there?"
Li Mu closed his eyes and stretched out his finger. According to the scene in his mind, he drew a few talismans in the void and said, "This Talisman can turn an area into a sea of fire. The fire is blue and doesn't seem to be ordinary fire. As long as you touch it, you won't be able to get rid of it …"
Then he changed to another talisman and continued to speak.
"This Talisman can summon a lightning dragon …"
"This Talisman can freeze an area of 10,000 feet …"
"This Talisman can turn the earth into magma …"
"This Talisman can summon huge meteorites …"
…
After copying dozens of Talisman, Li Mu opened his eyes and said, "There are too many Talisman. I'm afraid there are more than 1,000 talismans. I can't finish them all in a short time …"
Fu Daozi looked at Li Mu in shock. After a while, he finally came to his senses and looked at Tian Jizi, saying, "You should abdicate …"
He put one hand on Tian Jizi's shoulder and said, "The Fugu School is destined to prosper in the hands of my disciple. If you don't give up the position of the headmaster, you will be hindering the prosperity of our sect. You have to apologize to the ancestors …"
Li Mu hurriedly said, "Master, forget it. There's no hurry …"
Fu Daozi didn't insist to the end. Instead, he said happily, "After seeing those Talisman, I have comprehended something. I need to cultivate in seclusion for a few days to comprehend it …"
Fu Daozi left in a hurry. Li Mu stood in the Taoist Palace and asked Xuan Jizi, "What are those monsters?"
Xuan Jizi shook his head and said, "In ancient times, the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was rich and everything flourished. However, there weren't many things that were really passed down from that era. Everything that happened in that era has always been a mystery in the cultivation world …"
Li Mu asked doubtfully, "The Dao Scripture didn't seem to be born that long ago, did it?"
Xuan Jizi explained, "People think that the Dao Scripture was compiled by countless Taoist seniors more than 1,000 years ago. But in fact, the Dao Scripture has existed for even longer. Perhaps it can be traced back to the ancient times. At that time, the Taoist seniors only passed down the orthodoxy of the various Taoist sects by comprehending the Dao pages …"
The ancient times were a long time ago for the people of this world.
There were few records about the ancient times in this era. For some reason, the inheritance between the two eras was broken.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was very rich in the ancient times, which was many times richer than today's.
The cultivation of cultivators was related to spiritual Qi. The masters of this era all stopped at the Transcendence Realm. In that era, there should have been cultivators at the eighth or even the ninth realm.
Li Mu thought of those monsters. Their strength might be related to the density of spiritual Qi.
With the thin spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, it was difficult for such huge monsters to be born. They might have gone extinct in the long river of time.
No one could explain the scene that happened in the Dao page to Li Mu. Li Mu stopped thinking about it and asked Xuan Jizi, "Is there any way to show the scenes that I saw in the Dao page?"
Xuan Jizi shook his head and said, "You can show ordinary memories with the cultivation strength of the fifth realm. However, you can't show the insights in the Dao page."
Li Mu found that he couldn't show the scenes in his mind with Spiritual Spell Visual Projection. It seemed that the problem didn't lie with him but with the Dao page.
He waved his hand and said, "I'll go back now. Don't forget that you still owe me five Heaven-Level Talisman …"
Standing in the Daoist Palace, Xuan Jizi watched him leave as if he saw the beginning of the change in the cultivation world.
– White Cloud Peak –
Li Mu had been in seclusion cultivation for seven days after he returned.
After seven days, he opened the door and stood in the courtyard. Under the long-awaited sunlight, he stretched lazily.
During these seven days, he had watched the scenes that he saw in the Dao page countless times. He recorded all the Talisman that he could see and organized them into a jade slip.
Similar to a USB flash drive, jade slips were used by cultivators to store information. If it was recorded on paper, it would take at least 1,300 pages. If it was recorded on jade slips, one jade slip would be enough.
Li Mu flew up and came to the main peak again. Then, he landed in a Daoist Palace.
Talisman Daozi walked out. Li Mu handed him the jade slip and said, "Master, take this."
Talisman Daozi took the jade slip and asked, "What's this?"
Li Mu said with a smile, "You'll know when you see it."
Talisman Daozi pressed the jade slip to his forehead. His expression gradually became sluggish, and even his body trembled slightly.
Li Mu looked at him and said, "These are all the Talisman images in the Dao page. I hope you can understand the Great Dao of the Talisman from them, Master."
Talisman Daozi looked at Li Mu with his beard trembling. He tried to speak several times but failed.
Li Mu bowed and said, "I won't disturb Master. I'll go back now."
He flew out of the Daoist Palace and returned to the White Cloud Peak. He let out a long sigh of relief.
This was the only thing he could do for Talisman Daozi. Li Mu used the talismans on the Dao Page to repay the favor of Talisman Daozi for giving him the comprehension of the Dao of Talismans. As for whether Talisman Daozi could comprehend the Dao of Transcendence from it, that would depend on himself.
Not long after, an aura familiar to Li Mu landed outside the small building.
Li Mu opened the door. Elder Xu said respectfully, "Uncle-Master Li, the Sect Master invites you in."
In less than half a month, he had changed the way he addressed Li Mu from "Lord Li" to "Uncle-Master Li".
Although Xuan Jizi listened to Talisman Daozi and didn't publicize this matter in the sect, he still informed the third-generation elders in the sect.
Li Mu came to the main peak's Dao Palace and found that other than Xuan Jizi, the other heads were also there.
Li Mu cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Sect Master, Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters …"
With a Master who was a Supreme Elder, it was much more convenient for him to move around Baiyun Mountain. Even if he met the Sect Master and the Sect Master, he only had to greet them as equals.
Xuan Jizi looked at Li Mu and said, "The materials for the talisman are ready. Junior Brother, you can start at any time."
After this period of rest, Li Mu's injuries had healed and his mind had returned to its peak state. Drawing a Saint-level Talisman might be a little difficult, but for a Heaven-level Talisman, it shouldn't be a problem for him to draw five of them in one go.
Drawing talismans wasn't difficult for him. The difficult thing was to gather the materials. The cultivators in the ancient times could draw talismans in the void because the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was rich at that time. When the spiritual Qi was thin, they had to find natural treasures that contained spiritual Qi to replace it.
Li Mu borrowed Xuan Jizi's magic power and drew five Heaven-level Talisman in one go. He let out a sigh of relief.
At this time, Xuan Jizi said, "There is still some talisman liquid left. Junior Brother, do you want to draw a few more?"
Li Mu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a bad mood, "Draw? Do you think I'm a tool for drawing talismans?"
Xuan Jizi sighed and said, "The Great Competition of the Peaks is about to begin. In every competition, the top three disciples will be rewarded with a Heaven-level Talisman. In the Ancestral Court, except for Junior Brother, no one has a hundred percent confidence. This talisman liquid is extremely precious. As a member of the Fugu School, Junior Brother can't bear to waste it, right?"
Li Mu looked at the serious face of Xuan Jizi and understood that he still had a lot to learn if he wanted to be the Sect Master of the Fugu School …
