Chapter 96: The Unbreakable Window Paper

  What surprised Li Wenjun was that among these talismans, there were several that were clearly different from the others. The other talismans had only one stone or a ball of flame on them, but these ones had several. Two of them had three balls of flame arranged in an upward-pointing triangle, and another had three stones arranged in the same way. There was also one with three ice cones on it.

  Li Wenjun flipped through the book "Fu Lu Entry" and found a way to divide the Fu Lu products. On it, there was a ball of flame or a piece of stone, which was a first-class Fu Lu. There were three pieces of stone or flames, which was a second-class Fu Lu. When activating the second-class Fu Lu, it would trigger not only one fireball, falling rocks, ice cones and so on.

  Li Wenjun was overjoyed, with more than 20 talismans in hand, he had a lot of killer moves. Especially the talisman bag also contained relevant books, tools, dan sand, and talisman paper, so he could try to practice making talismans later, which meant having a continuous supply of talismans.

  The benefits of the talisman, Li Wenjun has a deep understanding of it. Liu Zhiyuan was able to suppress him for a long time, and his main reliance was not on the large number of talismans in his hand?

  Li Wenjun decided that from now on he would spend more time on the Fu Talisman, which was the simplest and most effective way to enhance his combat power.

  After checking all the spoils, Li Wenjun walked out of the cave and confirmed the size of the storage pouch by filling it with stones. Compared to his original storage bag, the storage pouch was several times larger, probably enough to hold a single bed, with some extra space left over.

  Li Wenjun was very satisfied with this storage pouch, the space is so large, but the size is so small, he can put it in his arms, without worrying about letting outsiders see it.

  Everything was put away, Li Wenjun took a Biegu Dan, hesitated for a moment, and then put the Biegu Dan in his mouth. Liu Zhiyun could not have thought that he would die at his own hands beforehand, and the possibility of tampering with the Biegu Dan ahead of time was extremely small, which was also the reason why he dared to try the Biegu Dan.

  The entrance of the pill melted immediately, turning into a warm current that flowed through all the meridians and acupoints in an instant. A moment later, Li Wenjun felt a sense of fullness and no longer felt hungry.

  Li Wenjun nodded in satisfaction. With the Biegu Dan, he could save at least half a time unit every day by not having to cook and eat.

  Half an hour may seem insignificant, but accumulating sand into a tower, day after day and month after month, it also amounts to quite a considerable amount of time, enough for him to accomplish many things.

  Li Wenjun took a look at the number of Biegu Dan, roughly more than half a bottle, a total of sixty or so pieces. Even if he ate one piece per day, it would be enough to support him for two months. Apart from Biegu Dan, Liu Zhiyun also left behind some Juqi San, with fewer quantities than Biegu Dan, but still over thirty pieces. They were all accumulated by Liu Zhiyun's hard work over the years, and in the end, they all benefited Li Wenjun.

  Don't worry about supplies, and there are so many Gathering Spirit Powders. Zhang Jianjie's spiritual medicine hasn't been used up yet. Li Wenjun decided to cultivate in the mountain cave for a period of time. He won't leave Wufeng Mountain until he has consumed all the Bugu Dan, herbs, and Gathering Spirit Powder.

  Time flies, Li Wenjun is like a lady in the boudoir, never leaving the house, not even stepping out of the second door, wholeheartedly cultivating in Wufeng Mountain.

  With the help of Liu Zhiyun's leftover elixir, Li Wenjun's cultivation realm was growing at a rapid pace that could be seen with the naked eye every day. The finished product of Jiqi San and the bath soup made by Li Wenjun were not on the same level at all. Every time he took Jiqi San, Li Wenjun felt warm and gentle spiritual energy flowing through his meridians, without any impurities rampaging in his body.

  That feeling is so comfortable, every time he practices, Li Wenjun feels refreshed and wants to shout out loud.

  Every day, apart from practicing "Changchun Gong", Li Wenjun never forgot to diligently practice magic and bitterly practice knife skills. In addition, every other day, he would specially study the art of talismans for an hour.

  It's not until you learn that you realize the difficulties within. Li Wenjun originally thought drawing talismans was easy, but when he actually started learning, he found that he had underestimated the complexity of the art of talismans.

  Talismans are divided into many types, among which paper talismans made from yellow paper that has undergone special treatment as the base are the most common and also the most commonly used by cultivators.

  When drawing, the practitioner needs to use a magic brush to dip into the pre-prepared magic ink, and then infuse the magic power through the magic brush and mix it with the magic ink on the talisman paper, dot by dot, stroke by stroke, solidifying the foundation of the talisman and constructing space.

  If the rendering is successful, the cultivator can then infuse the spell into the space that has just been constructed on the talisman base. If the infusion is successful, a complete talisman is considered to be made.

  Any mistake in any step will lead to the failure of talisman making. The consequences of failure are minor losses of materials, waste of law enforcement, damage to tools, and severe ones may also be subject to backlash, even Liu Zhiyun, a talisman master who has been immersed in the way of talismans for twenty or thirty years, has encountered backlash more than once.

  After understanding the hardships of making talismans, Li Wenjun adjusted his cultivation direction in time. He focused on cultivating "Changchun Gong" to improve his cultivation realm, and delayed the production of talismans. He spent a lot of time reading and understanding several books related to talismans left by Liu Zhiyun.

  The days on Wufeng Mountain were dull and uninteresting for Li Wenjun, yet they were also fulfilling. Before he knew it, more than a month had passed.

  Li Wenjun increasingly felt that his cultivation realm had reached the peak of the second layer of Qi Refining, and was gradually approaching the third layer. He thought about rushing to the third layer as soon as possible, so he spent more and more time on cultivation every day.

  No matter how hard he tried, his cultivation realm was always stuck in the second layer of the Qi Refining stage, as if there was a tiny gap between him and the third layer at all times.

  The gap was thin like a layer of tissue paper, but Li Wenjun just couldn't break through.

  On this day, Li Wenjun once again failed to break through the third layer of Qi Refining Stage. After finishing his cultivation, he came out of the cave and climbed a nearby mountain peak, with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance.

  But all he saw was a clear blue sky, with no clouds for miles around. A few small birds flew past his eyes, leaving behind trails of ripples.

  Li Wenjun recalled that when he was practicing before, at first, he only used a dose of medicinal herbs to decoct the medicinal soup every day. Later, it increased to twice or thrice a day. If he didn't increase it, his later practice wouldn't have maintained a relatively fast speed. He repeatedly failed to break through the third layer of the Qi Refining stage; was it related to the insufficient spiritual energy provided by the Gathering Qi Dispersion?
