Spirit Symbol Master

  New atmosphere, new hopes, vote for me!

  Jiang He felt that his consciousness had been wandering in the endless darkness for a long time, and in this darkness, his thinking became clearer, and everything from his two lives rushed to his mind.

  The first life was a lingering attachment, the second life although short-lived, but even more difficult to let go of, there was resentment, but also something that attracted him. Since using his own blood as a guide, drawing out the fierce fire talisman, Jiang He's understanding of the spirit talismans had changed forever, at the moment when that fierce fire talisman exploded, he could strongly feel the will hidden within it, his own will.

  Ling symbols are not only spiritual but also a manifestation of his will!

  In the darkness, Jiang and all the spirit symbols he had seen came to life one by one, jumping off the silk paper and turning into small people. These little people danced around Jiang's body, and all the complex lines and strokes suddenly became clear and distinct. At this moment, Jiang clearly knew that he could draw these spirit symbols, not just first and second-order ones, but also third, fourth, and fifth-order ones.

  Lingfu is his greatest attachment in this life, the strongest interest. I won't die! I still want to draw talismans! Jiang He roared suddenly, all his will was just one, he couldn't die!

  Just as Jiang He was wailing, a vast and boundless darkness suddenly parted to reveal a great curtain, and the light reappeared! Jiang He sat up with a start, only to find himself back in bed, his body on top of soft bedding.

  "It's great to be alive!" Jiang He exclaimed.

  "Not bad, it's good to be alive, Junior Brother Jiang, congratulations on coming back to life again." A joyful voice came from not far away. Jiang He heard the sound and looked over, only to see an 8 or 9-year-old boy sitting on another bed, but with a mature man's face - it was Zhang Zixin, who had interacted with Jiang He before and had even been scolded by him.

  Jiang He smiled wryly, never expecting that it was he who had saved himself. He moved his body and found that all the injuries on him were healed. Jiang He got up and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, brother, for saving my life."

  Zhang Ziyu smiled and said: "Brother Jiang, don't be polite. I saved you because I also need your help with something."

  "Although Master Brother ordered me, Jiang He absolutely will not decline." Jiang He said seriously.

  Zhang Zì smiled and nodded, saying: "Junior Brother Jiāng's mastery of the spiritual symbol is not inferior to that of ordinary spiritual symbol masters. Therefore, I want Junior Brother Jiāng to help me retrieve an item from Qiān Jī Dòng Fǔ."

  "Going to Qianji Cave Mansion with Shixiong shouldn't be a problem. It's just that I don't know what this Lingfu Master and Qianji Cave Mansion are? I've never heard of them before." Jiang He asked.

  Zhang Zi smiled and said: "Junior Brother Jiang has never left the sect before, so he doesn't know what's going on outside. Let me tell you in detail."

  This world is extremely vast, stretching endlessly in all directions. Apart from the small area where ordinary people live, cultivators exist in every corner of this vast world, and their numbers are numerous. The sects of cultivators are also numerous because the ideas about cultivation differ, and the cultivator factions are divided into the Immortal Gate and the Devil Gate.

  The Immortal Sect emphasizes rules and reason, cultivating step by step without harming the heavens. On the other hand, the Demon Sect is unscrupulous, relying on brute force to cultivate in a cruel and ruthless manner, harming both heaven and reason. Due to these differing cultivation philosophies, the Immortal and Demon Sects have been at odds with each other for ages. When disciples of the two sects meet, they often engage in direct combat, so be careful from now on, Jiang Shidi."

  "Senior brother, how can we tell whether they are disciples of the Immortal Sect or the Devil Sect?" Jiang He asked.

  "This is generally dependent on personal experience, but there are a few points that can be borrowed. The disciples of the Xianmen have a more elegant and simple color scheme for their magic, which is usually one of the five colors of gold, blue, red, yellow, or a mixture of the five colors. On the other hand, the magic of the Mo men disciples often has a mottled color, with extremely heavy or dazzling colors, and most of them have blood mixed in with their magic, because the cultivation methods of the Mo men involve refining human essence or the essence of other living beings."

  Moreover, from their attire, you can also tell that the disciples of the Immortal Sect are dressed in simple and elegant clothes, while those of the Demon Sect are dressed in all sorts of strange and bizarre attire. In the future, you will be able to tell them apart at a glance.

  Zhang Zi's words suddenly reminded Jiang He of his unconventional attire in his past life, and some thoughts arose in his mind.

  "These don't represent all of them, some Mo Gate disciples are very cunning and pretend to be Xian Gate disciples, secretly plotting against others, making it difficult for people to distinguish. However, I will take you with me for a while, and after a long time, you will naturally understand, little brother." Zhang Ziyang added.

  "Hmm." Jiang He nodded, this information was something he had never come into contact with before. The previous Jiang He, the news was too blocked, and he didn't understand anything.

  "For the Xianmen, although the cultivation concept is roughly the same, the means of cultivation are different. At first, some Xianmen emphasized realms, some emphasized spiritual powers, some focused on alchemy, and some focused on spirit symbols, in short, they were diverse. It was precisely because of this that the various sects could learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and exchange what they needed. However, later on, the cultivation world experienced several great upheavals, and those sects that did not emphasize realms suffered greatly, with many sects being destroyed."

  As a result, all sects now cultivate mainly for boundary promotion. Only disciples with poor qualifications learn the refining of elixirs, spiritual symbols and so on. In this way, such cultivators become fewer and fewer, but their needs are not reduced in the slightest. With rarity comes preciousness, thus giving rise to four brand new occupations: Elixir Masters, Spiritual Symbol Masters, Puppeteers, and Artifact Refiners. These four occupations, after being verified, can be awarded special medals.

  "What benefits do these four types of occupations have?" Jiang He asked.

  "For these four types of professions, let alone being respected by others, the most important thing is that whether they are disciples of the immortal gate or the demon gate, they will not attack people in these professions for no reason." Zhang Zixin said with envy.

  "It seems that being a Spirit Master is quite good after all. But what are the standards for becoming a Spirit Master?"

  "Soul symbol masters are further divided into first-class soul symbol masters, second-class soul symbol masters, and third-class soul symbol masters. Anyone who can proficiently draw low-level soul symbols is considered a first-class soul symbol master, while those who can proficiently draw mid-level soul symbols are considered second-class soul symbol masters. It sounds simple, but the evaluation process is actually quite complicated."

  "Still need to be assessed, where to assess? The sect?" Jiang He asked.

  "The sect only has the right to recommend disciples for assessment, but not the right to assess. The right to assess spiritual masters lies in the hands of the Spiritual Master Alliance. In every city where cultivators gather, there will be a special branch of the Spiritual Master Alliance. This time, if I go to Qianji Cave Mansion smoothly, I can go back to the sect and get a recommendation quota for you to take part in the assessment of the Spiritual Master Alliance."

  "Never mind, I hate being restricted by this kind of alliance. If it's not necessary, I'd rather not take any assessment."

  "For you, Jiang Shidi, it's really necessary. If you pass the Lingfu Shi exam and become a member of the Lingfu Shi, Blue Wen Hao will think twice before killing you."

  "He's coming, let him come." Jiang He suddenly heard Lan Wenhao and immediately a killing intent rose from the bottom of his heart. He asked: "Shixiong, I was unconscious at that time, what happened to Lan Wenhao?"

  "He was also severely burned and was sent back by another brother of the Blood Oath." Zhang Ziyi sighed.

  "What's Lan Wenhao's background?" Jiang He asked.

  "Of course there is a background, and the background is huge. His father is a powerful elder of the Tianfeng Sect, a high-ranking master in the Golden Elixir stage, and his brother Lan Wenjian is also a member of the Law Enforcement Team."

  Jiang He remained silent for a moment, knowing that to save himself, Zhang Zi would definitely have to offend Lan Wenhao. After a brief silence, Jiang He looked up and said, "Thank you, senior brother, I will participate in the Ling Symbol Master assessment."
